Dragon and Tiger Taoist

China, Taizhou.

The territory of China is vast, with ninety-nine states, large and small, each of which is divided into nine states: Zhengdong, Zhengnan, Zhengxi, Zhengbei, Northeast, Southeast, Northwest, Southwest, and Zhonghuang. Dao alone occupies twenty-seven states, comparable to the land of three states, and is the true center of China, while Taizhou is located in the Southeast Dao, one of the nine southeastern states.

At night, the stars are dim, and the mountain city located at the foot of Mount Tai is extremely quiet, without any noise.

At a certain moment, the stars in the sky shone brightly, and a figure walked out quietly.

"What a strong ghost spirit!"

Zhuang Yuan frowned slightly after coming all the way with the help of his magical power of star movement and feeling the cold air permeating the heaven and earth. He was not unfamiliar with this aura, and even said he was very familiar with it.

When he entered the Middle Earth from the Southern Wilderness, his first stop was naturally Qingzhou. However, considering that Wu Sheng was going through a tribulation, it was not suitable to disturb him, so he did not stop in Qingzhou, but rushed to Taizhou non-stop with the help of his magical power. This is One of the main destinations of his trip.

Qingzhou is located on the Southwest Road, and Taizhou is located on the Southeast Road. The two are far apart. Even if he has mastered the magical power of the stars, it took him a lot of time to get to Taizhou. The prosperity of the Middle Earth is far greater than that of the Southern Wasteland. The land of one state is Chaomai used to be the Dali Dynasty, not to mention that there was a Zhengnan Road between the Southwest Road and the Southeast Road.

"Are the ghosts here already so rampant?"

Starlight circulated around him, covering him. When he looked at Mount Tai, which was as tall as the sky and half of his body was thrust into the clouds, supporting the heaven and earth like a pillar of heaven, Zhuang Yuan felt surprised and puzzled.

Mount Tai is the center of Taizhou. It has had a very high humanistic status since ancient times. It is also one of the sources of myths for Taizhou and even the entire Middle-earth. It is rumored that this place was once the residence of immortal gods. However, at this moment, in Zhuang Yuan's eyes, this sacred mountain has become It completely turned into a ghost nest, and the boundless ghost energy gathered on the top of the mountain, turning into dark clouds covering the sky and the earth, covering the entire Taizhou.

"It shouldn't be. According to the information left by Wanxiang Xingjun, Taizhou was once the center of the southeastern nine states. Even if it has declined now, it should not be stolen by ghosts. You must know that ghosts have always been the enemy of the human race, and this Middle-earth is A former humanitarian center.”

The clearer he saw, the more doubtful Zhuang Yuan became.

Having studied under Longhu Mountain, he naturally knows that this era is the era of ghosts, but Zhongzhou was once the center of humanity. It is not an exaggeration to say that this is the headquarters of humanity. There should be no such scene where ghosts are rampant.

The Southern Wilderness is a remote place, but it can still suppress ghost ways with human ways, let alone the middle land? Although this era is the era of ghosts, many ghosts have been blessed, but it still takes a process for ghosts to truly grow. The human race has been in charge of the situation for a long time, and it is not without the power to suppress ghosts. The situation should not collapse. So bad.

"I was traveling all the way. Although I was in a hurry, this was the first time I saw such a situation. There may be ghosts in other states, but they will never be so rampant."

"Now it seems that the Tianxing Sect's orthodoxy is really broken."

Withdrawing his gaze, his thoughts turned, and he looked towards the mountain city not far away. Hiding his aura, Zhuang Yuan quietly fell down. He needed to find out more information.

Mount Tai was once occupied by the Tianxing Sect and was the ancestral court of its sect. In its heyday, it single-handedly suppressed the Southeast Kyushu, dominated the Southeast Road, and watched the entire world. It was one of the top forces at that time, but from the current situation From the looks of it, Tianxing Sect has obviously lost Mount Tai, and has a high probability of being destroyed.

"Is this some kind of event?"

Walking quietly into the backing city, Zhuang Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at the deserted streets, the black lanterns hung in every house and the white paper money scattered on the ground.

To be cautious, he did not spread his spiritual thoughts unscrupulously, and after walking a little further, he discovered a strange sight, that is, there was a cage placed outside the door of many people's houses. There were strands of red silk hanging, and they were dressed very festively, and inside were children of about six years old.

Each of them wore exquisite makeup, both male and female, dressed like dolls. They were curled up, hiding in the cage and shivering, not daring to make any noise.

Looking at such a scene, Zhuang Yuan was puzzled, and at this moment he noticed something.

Phew, the dark wind was blowing, and a dark cloud came from Mount Tai, completely blocking the moonlight. Ghosts emerged from it, with evil smiles, and threw themselves towards the streets of the mountain city. For a time, the scene of a hundred ghosts walking at night was vividly outlined. They floated past the cages one after another, and some stayed for a while, their scarlet eyes full of greed, as if they were looking at some delicious food.

At a certain moment, a child vaguely felt something and cried out in fright. The ghost hovering around him was overjoyed and went straight into the cage to swallow his soul.

Ghosts are not real or real. When they are virtual, it is difficult for ordinary people to detect the existence of ghosts, and they cannot be seen with the naked eye. Children who can produce some sensations have good spiritual senses, and the souls of such children are extremely delicious to ghosts. food.

Seeing such a scene, Zhuang Yuan still didn't understand that these children were used as sacrifices to these ghosts. For a moment, an unknown anger suddenly ignited in his heart, and just when he wanted to take action to destroy these ghosts When he was there, someone appeared and blocked him.

"Fellow Taoist, listen to my advice. If you are not sure about solving the Hundred Ghost Sect on Mount Tai, don't take action. Otherwise, you will not only lose your own life, but also harm the people in this city."

Carrying a large sword on his back and melting into the darkness, a seven-foot-tall man with a dark red complexion, a full beard, and a compass in his hand who looked to be in his thirties appeared in front of Zhuang Yuan.

Hearing this, he glanced at the strong man in front of him, pondered for a moment, suppressed the anger in his heart, and Zhuang Yuan gave up his plan to take action. He knew that the other party did not lie to him. Although he was only observing from the outside and did not understand deeply, he Zhuang Yuan also sensed the existence of several powerful ghosts on Mount Tai.

For him, he could easily destroy the little ghosts in the city, but he had no confidence in dealing with the ghost king on Mount Tai, let alone protecting the safety of the creatures in the city.

At this moment, Zhuang Yuan felt an inexplicable depression in his heart. After leaving the Southern Wilderness, it turned out that there are still such ghosts in this world.

Seeing Zhuang Yuan dissipate the power in his hand and hold the compass in his hand, Nie Renxiong breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.

He came out tonight to cover up a few talented little guys and save their lives, but he didn't expect to find Zhuang Yuan, an outsider.

Although Zhuang Yuan's whole body was covered by an invisible force, he could still vaguely feel that Zhuang Yuan was stronger than him. This was very strange, because he was already a high-level Yin God and stronger than him. , is it a pure Yin realm monk or a Taoist realm?

"Fellow Taoist, Nie Renxiong, let's move to another place to talk. We won't be quiet tonight."

Suppressing all the thoughts in his heart, Nie Renxiong put forward a new suggestion.

Hearing this, Zhuang Yuan sighed as he listened to the cries of children coming from the darkness, and nodded.

After getting the affirmative answer, the compass in his hand turned, darkness filled the air, and with Zhuang Yuan, Nie Renxiong disappeared.
