Lao Gong is a male spirit, and the most basic ability he has is perception. Before I learned Daoism, I also perceived it several times.
Using this ability of perception, I can see many things.
Only, I've always wondered if Lao Gong can see the living?
At one time, I only thought that he could use this ability to locate the living, and could only meet ghosts through a mysterious connection.
In front of me was the large face of Lao Gong, but in an instant it became dark and very dark.
The breadth he saw with his gaze was no longer normal and wide, but narrow, immeasurably narrow!
The space is about half a meter wide, and even the height is less than half a meter. A person is crawling into it.
His right forefinger was missing one fingernail, and the blood scab covered the entire tip of his finger. The fingernails of his other fingers on the right hand were damaged to varying degrees.
His left hand is still okay, and the nails are uninjured. However, there are slight broken marks on the palm area.
A vision I imagine floats into my mind.
These hands, the right one gripping the edge of the stone slab, the left one using a long whip to wrap around one end of it.
A stone slab that requires several people to move together can be moved single-handedly by her! Moreover, before the formation was broken, the stone slab was definitely more stable. It required a greater force, so she gathered all her strength, which not only injured her fingers but also hurt her palm!
But why?
Why did Siyan have to do this?
Why did she have to enter the belly of the mountain where the evil corpse was buried, in the Songqu mountain?
Siyan is still climbing forward.
Her breathing is even, and she's in good condition.
However, I know that this state is not good at all, she's too abnormal.
There's no mirror in front of me, I can't see her face either. If I could, I would definitely notice some subtle differences.
Suddenly, the crawling stopped.
What I see in front of me is water.
I can see that this entire hole has been tilting downwards all along?
The water has filled the lower cave passage, and in front of Siyan, it is a water passage with a length over half a meter and the shortest cross-section being only half a meter.
The source of light is from a flashlight. On the calm, black water surface, her ice-cold face reflects like a mountain.
She looked down at her eyes and stared straight at the water surface.
"Lingbao Tianzun, comfort your form, disciple's soul and five internal organs, the Qilin and the Dragon, the White Tiger and the Black Tiger, are aligned in intricate harmony. The Vermilion Bird and the Black Tortoise guard my true essence. Hurry, as per divine command."
Her cold voice raised her injured right hand, pointing the sword vertically in front of her chest.
A muffled groan was heard!
Everything in front of me is completely shattered.
What comes into view next is the big face of Lao Gong, the peach grove, and the people beside him. They are all looking pale and anxious.
"Ah, ah... Why is Siyan the young miss casting a spell on me..."
Lao Gong's body is surrounded by white vapor, especially around his mouth, as if he had been burned.
"She of course doesn't know it's you... probably just feels like she's been spied on."
Wu Jinao replied cautiously from the side.
"But why did she come here?"
I was perplexed and couldn't figure it out. I had previously asked it in my heart, but now it was asking Lao Gong and Wu Jin'an.
"I can sneakily watch people, but I can't sneakily peel open their hearts to see what's inside. The Ghost Director can!" Lao Gong spoke solemnly.
"Hmm... Lao Gong Shun, Wei dean hasn't seen anyone. He can't see anything else either, right?" Wu Jin'an cautiously said after testing the words and then seriously added: "In any case, the most urgent thing now is to find the person. Then we can clear things up."
"You all, go find Master Mao Sheng. Do not poison him, we will prepare to enter the belly of the mountain right away." I looked at the disciples of Juqu Mountain on my side.
Those few people looked at each other and nodded. They hurriedly walked away in the direction they had come from.
There were still some disciples of Juqu Mountain left, and they appeared very uncomfortable. Subconsciously, their eyes were displaying abnormal emotions.
"What kind of looks are those?" Lao Gong said sinisterly.
"No... no..." A disciple quickly shook their head to deny it.
"She has descended into your mountain's belly, and won't have any thoughts towards your evil corpse. The only possible explanation is that there is a problem with this mountain. You don't have a true person, so you can't feel it, but she can. "A disciple on the side of him, his facial expression revealing his feelings more directly, gritted his teeth and said: "Why can she notice? This mountain is fine, we came here in good condition, besides her breaking the array, there hasn't been any problem!"
I furrowed my brow slightly.
After all, it was Siyan who broke the formation, causing people to feel dissatisfied with her, which is very normal.
Even Mao Sheng would think this way.
The ones who don't want to think about it or voice an opinion are absolutely abnormal!
"Why? If the true person is not enough, what if she's the true person who ate the night light hole nose? Is that enough? A group of idiots whose hands and feet are more developed than their brains, who must listen to good things to be considered as a human being?" Lao Gong cursed angrily.
At this point, everyone fell silent.
They looked at each other, looking very surprised.
The fact that Yeguang Dongbei was eaten by Siyan hasn't been thoroughly passed down in the world of yin and yang.
Only those who were present at the Daoxian Daoist site know this.
Initially, Guan Liangfei, Mao Su and Mao Si must not have wanted to publicize it. After all, the five jade plants belonging to Juqu Mountain were taken by outsiders. What's the logic behind this?
Perhaps there were many disciples who knew about it before, but those disciples are now in the Underworld.
"Damn it, don't forget that your Juqu Mountain is..." Lao Gong was about to curse again.
"Lao Gong Shun!" Wu Jin'an extended his hand and grabbed Lao Gong's shoulder. He shook his head slightly.
I also glowered, my eyes signaling Lao Gong not to say anymore.
Because all these disciples in the hall have become taciturn, lowering their heads, this emotion is exactly the same as when Xu Yang was at Four Rules Mountain at that time.
Although they were once disciples who supervised the Daoist site, they didn't have the right to go to the main line of Juqu Mountain.
Now, they have become the foundation of this place. Lao Gong keeps saying that Juqu Mountain was once annihilated and only survived through our help. This is too hurtful.
"On this matter, after we leave, we will make a deal with Juqu Mountain. We hope the seniors won't mind it. Our Luo Daojie and Juqu Mountain have a deep connection. Mr. Wu Jin'an and others understand this, and there will be no malice towards Juqu Mountain. There must really be something wrong here." Wu Jin'an's tone seems normal and also carries a hint of reassurance.
The disciples' faces gradually became calm again.
Some people cupped their hands in a gesture of understanding, while others remained silent without saying a word.
Lao Gong rolled his eyes and added, "Look at how you all look so resentful. Don't hold a grudge against me. I just speak my mind, and I can't do much. Just think about your previous three overseers. They made the ancestor not want to be with them, and you should learn from them."
After saying the last sentence, Lao Gong placed his fingers across his mouth and winked at me and Wu Jin'an.
His attitude clearly signaled that he wouldn't say anything more.
Those disciples' faces all turned red, without exception.
"Whew..." Wu Jin'an breathed a sigh of relief.
"Hmm..." Lao Gong squatted in front of the formation cave entrance, his eyes pondering continuously. "There's still a problem... What is Siyan the young miss going down to do?"
"Let's go, let's go." Lao Gong chased after them.
"Wait a moment." I shook my head and gave Lao Gong a look telling him not to rush.
"?" Lao Gong's gaze at me was laced with a hint of oddness and discontent.
"So it's not about Cao family's daughter, isn't it? You really can't wait?"
"Lao Gong Shun, you're really anxious because you care. Luo Daojie is much more calm than you. I've just figured it out; we have to wait for Master Mao Sheng to arrive." Wu Jin'an said in a deep voice: "What can be said about the mountain belly? Even if there are no dictionaries, he must know something about it. This time we can't wait until something happens and then slowly squeeze out the toothpaste. We need to know everything in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong."
Lao Gong mumbled a few times, but didn't say anything else.
