White Bone Monkey King

People in ancient times were limited by their education level.

The power of the emperor prevents the people from becoming intellectually enlightened and prevents everyone from causing trouble like a dragon.

As well as being affected by famine, limitations in the types of food available, etc.

It is difficult to understand that everything is spiritual.

It is also difficult to understand that animals can sometimes be more human than humans.

Under the precepts and deeds of their parents and elders since childhood, people can easily form a thinking inertia, believing that animals are born for human food and are not worthy of the affection between mother and child, and the affection between husband and wife.

It was difficult for the ancients to accept the new trend of thought that everything has spirituality and every plant and tree can feel pain.

Therefore, the Yinshan Taoist pangolin incident had a great impact on the Guangping San people at that time, and had a profound impact on his future "Tao". Perhaps this is one of the reasons why Guangping San people later became Taoist masters.

Jinan comes from modern times.

Received enlightening education.

He didn't have so many old-school feudal ideas. He was educated in new-school ideological trends, so he could easily accept the idea that everything has spirituality from the beginning.

This world.

Not only every plant and tree has spirituality.

Even stones breathe.

Everything in the universe is all-encompassing.

There is spirituality in all.

…

Putting this aside, Jin An curiously asked the abbot of Bailong Temple: "Abbott, how come there are corpses of water monkeys raised by Yinshan Taoists here?"

"Is there really a Dragon King's Dragon Palace under the Yinyi River? It's just that this Dragon Palace is not the mythical Crystal Dragon Palace that people think of, but a large tomb?"

"This big tomb was later discovered by tomb robbers, and then the group of tomb robbers knew Yinshan Taoist. Please invite Yinshan Taoist to go down to the Yinyi River to rob the tomb?"

"Of course, in the end, they all died in the big tomb, and even the water monkeys raised by Taoist Yinshan became the corpse soldiers of the Dragon King. Because the water monkeys themselves were specially refined by Taoist Yinshan for underwater tomb robberies. , can move more quickly underwater, and for the Dragon King under the Yinyi River, it is much easier to dispatch than those drowned corpses."

"If this is the case, it can explain why there are tomb robbers to rob the tomb of Fu Yin's daughter after her death. The Dragon King may have killed a group of tomb robbers and then made corpse soldiers to serve him. ."

The more Jin An talked, the clearer his thinking became.

Now everything makes sense.

"So, the tomb robbers are not in the same group as the antique dealers? It just happened that the two things happened together, and then the antique dealers borrowed knives to kill people, leaving the Dragon King with a big blame..." This sentence advanced An speculated in his heart, not to the abbot of Bailong Temple.

After listening to Jin An's analysis, the abbot of Bailong Temple chewed it carefully and praised it. Unexpectedly, Jin An had a fantastic idea to connect the previous and previous events through just a few water monkey corpses and speculate on the truth behind it. Sure enough, It is the generation of heroes that gives birth to young people, and it is impossible for people not to accept old age.

Jin An: "?"

Several black lines drooped from Jin An's forehead.

He felt that everything in Bailong Temple was good. All Buddhist teachings were profound, and all the monks were kind and kind. It was the atmosphere of Kua Kua Temple that really made him dumbfounded.

Jin An's soul rubbed his chin.

If there really is a big tomb under the Yinyi River, then this big tomb should be in Qianku Cave, which is also called Qianzhi Cave.

Tsk tsk.

It seems that this Dragon King may not be the real Dragon King.

What's in the tomb?

Of course there are millennium-old rice dumplings in the tomb.

But there is still something he can't figure out. If the Dragon King is not the Dragon King, but the Corpse King buried in the tomb, then what happened to the cyan scales and claws he saw when he walked into the underworld?

He was sure.

That day, when he was hugged by the Dragon King from behind, he really saw a green snake scale claw. It couldn't be an illusion.

Feeling upset at the thought, Jin An simply stopped thinking about whether it was the Corpse King or the Dragon King. Anyway, the governor had decided to go to Yinyi River to quell the Dragon King's case, so he would naturally be able to see the Dragon King's true face.

According to the abbot of Bailong Temple, Fu Yin has already sent a letter and invitation to Bailong Temple, the largest temple in the city. Fu Yin already has Xiao Hanba in his hands, and now Yinyi River is a matter of these two days.

As the remaining power of the thunder method dissipated, the soul of the woman who was sitting in the sedan chair and offered sacrifice to the Dragon King had regained some strength. She began to thank Jin'an and the abbot of Bailong Temple with a grateful face for saving her life.

The abbot of Bailong Temple smiled kindly and said: "Amitabha, the donor would like to thank this little Taoist priest from the Five Zang Taoist Temple. It was all the credit of the Wuzang Taoist Temple for repelling the water monkeys. It is embarrassing to say that I also treated those water monkeys just now. The monkey is a little helpless.”

The abbot of Bailong Temple did not take any credit.

With rosary beads hanging on her hands, she clasped her hands and spoke truthfully.

The soul of the woman in the sedan expressed her gratitude to Jin An again.

Without mentioning this in advance, Jin An began to ask who was the victim of the woman in front of him? Who is looking down upon human life and sacrificing human beings to the Dragon King in the Yinyi River?

When the woman mentioned her own death, when she saw her body in the Dragon King Temple, she suddenly became emotional and burst into tears.

Under the comfort of Jin'an and the abbot of Bailong Temple, the woman tearfully revealed her origins.

"The girl's name is Hongxia. She is originally from Huangzhuang. There was a market in the town that day. I went into the town to watch the excitement and was slapped on the back of the head from behind. I was so confused that I can't remember what happened after that. "

"When the girl regained her memory, she had been sold by traffickers to a place called Tuoling Village. They forced her to wear this wedding dress and sacrificed it to the Dragon King of the Yinyi River as the Water Goddess."

"The folk girl didn't want to become the Water Goddess of the Dragon King, but the villagers threatened me with knives and threatened to kill me if I didn't jump into the river by myself. The folk girl had no choice but to jump into the river. She thought that if she didn't jump into the river, she would die. If she jumped into the river, she might still be alive. There is a glimmer of hope. Wuwuwu... As soon as the girl jumped into the river, she found that she couldn't look back, couldn't look back, couldn't get to the shore, Wuwu, Wuwuwu..."

The deceased woman's soul cried heartbrokenly.

Later, when she woke up, she found herself unable to move in a sedan chair. She was carried ashore by the sedan bearers to the Dragon King Temple.

"I have something to ask for. I hope that the Taoist priest and the mage can bring the ashes of the girl to Huangzhuang's parents. The girl has been missing for so many days. Her father and mother must have been worried. They only blame the girl. If you are not filial, you cannot continue to serve them and leave before them."

The deceased woman's soul cried and knelt down and kowtowed: "I beg the Taoist priest and the mage to take the ashes of the common girl back to her hometown. The common girl does not seek revenge, but only wants to return to her roots and be buried in the hill behind the house. Even if she dies, she can continue to serve her father." By my mother’s side.”

Jin An and the abbot of Bailong Temple quickly helped the woman's soul, and then agreed to the woman's request. The woman thanked her again.

"Killing for life is the eternal truth."

"Miss Hongxia, please write down the names of the people who harmed you. Tomorrow, the abbot and I will ask the government to directly make these executioners with blood-stained hands pay with their blood."

Jin An said with a fierce aura.

Hearing this, the deceased woman's soul thought of something sad and cried out again and knelt down to kowtow. Jin An hurriedly helped her up.

"Miss Hongxia, please return your soul first, lest you stay outside for a long time and your soul will be polluted by the filthy air of heaven and earth, blinding your mind and never returning to your physical body, turning you into a lonely ghost wandering outside. Next, come down. Leave the matter of slaying demons to me and the abbot, we will go down to the Yinyi River to seek justice for you, and no one will force you to marry the Dragon King again."

"Amitabha." The abbot of Bailong Temple nodded and agreed with Jin An's proposal.

After the woman's soul lay down on the body and the transparent soul and the body merged into one, Jin An began to discuss with the abbot of Bailong Temple how to get down to the Yinyi River.

"Abbott, water is a mysterious evil spirit. The evil spirit is heavy and can trap people's souls. Especially since the Yinyi River is wide and deep, the river is surging, and the waves are soaring to the sky. The deeper the soul dives, the greater the harm to the soul. My current cultivation level is not enough. The soul cannot enter the water directly, I have to have the soul attached to an external object before I can go down to the Yinyi River."

"Although there are water monkey corpses and human skins in the temple, these are definitely not good. These things are too strong in yin energy and are not suitable for my soul to possess. I have to find other foreign objects."

Jin An said to the abbot of Bailong Temple.

Upon hearing this, the resident of Bailong Temple smiled, holding rosary beads in both hands: "I saw that there are some paper-cut figures in the Dragon King Temple. It seems that they were left by the people who came to the Dragon King Temple to worship. I think there are ready-made ones in the Dragon King Temple." ."

Jin'an took a sweeping view of the Dragon King Temple, and then laughed loudly: "Okay, let's go down to the Yinyi River today to explore the reality of these thousands of caves and the Dragon Palace."

Jin An has great ambitions and plans to find a paper-cut man to possess him, but soon, Jin An is dumbfounded.

All of these paper-cut figures are women, either maids, young ladies, or young women, including young girls, first-time wives, charming young wives, forty-year-old sisters-in-law, fifty-year-old women...

"Isn't this nonsense..." There is no male paper-cut figure among so many paper-cut figures.

The world is declining, and people's hearts are not as old as they used to be.

The corner of Jin An Shenhun's mouth twitched.

He, who had been so full of fighting spirit just now, suddenly died down.

"This Dragon King is so licentious!" The abbot of Bailong Temple was also dumbfounded.

For a moment, the Taoist priest and the old monk looked at each other.

The atmosphere in the Dragon King Temple was eerily quiet for a while.

The atmosphere was awkward.

"Amitabha, as the saying goes, if I don't go to hell, who will go to hell? In ancient times, there was a story about Buddha cutting his flesh and feeding it to the eagle. Today, I also followed the example of my ancestor and took the body of a daughter to feed the Dragon King."

The abbot of Bailong Temple clasped his hands together and looked at Jin An: "I wonder if fellow Taoist Jin'an has any special requirements. Why don't you choose which one first, fellow Taoist Jin'an?" Paper cutter?"

"?"

"!"

Jin An felt that the abbot of Bailong Temple must have something in mind for him.

Next.

Two rays of divine soul light flashed.

Two paper-cut figures in the Dragon King Temple came to life. One was a rich lady wearing gold and silver. She wore a flowing long skirt, red lips and white teeth, rosy cheeks, and straight and strong legs. She also has a sword in her hand. She is a child of the world dressed as a rich lady who is famous for wielding a sword and travels all over the world.

I didn’t expect that the Dragon King tastes quite good.

In addition to liking the unruly eldest daughter of the rich second generation, I also like the strong-willed Jianghu kid Xiaojiajiao.

One of them is a girl with round hair, wearing a long aqua blue dress.

According to the abbot of Bailong Temple, "Fellow Taoist Jin'an is kind to me, Bailong Temple. I, Bailong Temple, are just like this maid paper-cut figure possessed by Lao Na. I am willing to devote myself to Jin'an Taoist friends until death, and I am willing to be a red flower." A green leaf next to you.”

Jin An: "?"

He looked at the eminent monk, the abbot of Bailong Temple, in front of him in shock.

Jin An sacrificed his life for justice. This was the first time he was possessed by a spirit. Although the experience of possessing a woman's body for the first time was a bit strange... Jin An still couldn't help the sense of curiosity in his heart. In the Dragon King Temple Going around and around.

There are some differences between this soul-possessed paper-cut figure and the real body.

No touch at first.

There is no touch, and the second point is naturally no pain.

The third sense of smell and hearing and other five senses are somewhat affected, as if there is a veil outside the head. The sense of smell and hearing have a hazy feeling, which is not as real as the physical body and reflects more details.

No wonder so many ghosts like to covet living people, and most of their possessions are made by living people, but rarely by dead people or other dead things. Because it's really a world of difference.

The fourth movement is not as sensitive as the physical body. It is like putting a layer of shackles on the body, and the expression of strength is inevitably subject to some constraints.

Compared with living people, there are the following differences.

I wonder what kind of experience Mr. Yiyun felt when he was distracted by those paintings. Mr. Yiyun should be more realistic, right?

Speaking of Young Master Yiyun, Jin An suddenly felt nostalgic about leaving Young Master Yiyun without saying goodbye.

The first living person he saw when he came to this world was Mr. Yiyun.

So he must have some special emotions and bonds with Mr. Yiyun.

The world is so big, I don’t know if I will ever see Mr. Yiyun again...

"Abbott, only you and I know about this matter tonight. Heaven knows and earth knows, and no other person knows about it!" Before setting off, Jin An made a special confession to the abbot of Bailong Temple.

At this moment, Jin'an is like the wind rustling and the water is cold, feeling tragic.

Tonight he sacrificed his life for righteousness.

It's all for the happiness of all people in the world.

The world should remember his immortal achievements...

Speaking of this, Jin An remembered that there was a female corpse in the Dragon King Temple, and he subconsciously looked at the female corpse aside.

The lips of the female corpse did not move, but Hongxia's hurried voice sounded in the void: "Taoist priests and mage, please don't worry, Minnu didn't meet anyone tonight. Moreover, Minnu is already a dead person, and dead people cannot speak. of."

Ahem.

Next, Jin An and the abbot of Bailong Temple began to walk outside the Dragon King Temple.

It was still raining lightly outside, and the water vapor on the river bank was very heavy, but the paper-cutters were protected by the Liuding Liujia Talisman, so they had no fear of getting wet.

The paper-cut figures made by the abbot of Bailong Temple are blessed by the Buddha and are not afraid of getting wet in the rain.

The officers and soldiers who had been keeping watch outside the Dragon King Temple were now asleep and fell to the ground, unaware of their personnel. No wonder none of the officers and soldiers on watch were alert to the huge commotion before.

Jin An checked a few people and found that these people were just stunned and fell asleep, and their lives were not in danger. He breathed a sigh of relief and then moved them to a shelter to avoid getting sick from being exposed to the rain all night.

At this time, Jin An, who was walking in front with his legs straight and strong, saw the abbot of Bailong Temple walking behind, a little unsteady and with a strange walking posture, so he asked the eminent monk what was wrong?

The maid possessed by the abbot of Bailong Temple adjusted her expression. Under Jin An's curious gaze, she said: "Fellow Taoist Jin An, how come you have adapted to these women's dresses so quickly?"

"Amitabha, fellow Taoist Jin'an, don't you feel uncomfortable in any way?"

Jin An: "?"

"This paper-cutting artist must not be very good at it. The clothes are a bit small and tight. Apart from being a little ridiculous, I got used to it very quickly."

"Amitabha, fellow Taoist Jin'an is indeed a young hero. He is extremely talented in every aspect and is hard to come by."

Jin An always felt that the abbot of Bailong Temple was alluding to something about him.

But he couldn't find any evidence yet.

Plop!

Plop!

There were two sounds of diving, and the figures of the two women jumped down from the Yinyi River gracefully.

As soon as Jin'an entered the Yinyi River, he was almost knocked over by the undercurrents and turbid waves of the evil spirit under the river. Fortunately, the Liuding Liujia Talisman, which had been sealed three times, was extraordinary and quickly blocked the thick evil atmosphere under the water, allowing him to (She) steady herself.

At this time, there was a golden light shining in the river, and a golden light swam towards him. It was the abbot of Bailong Temple who was swimming close to him under the protection of the Buddha's light.

Subsequently.

The two began to swim towards Qiankudong underwater.

It is the flood season now, and the undercurrents and waves under the water are as heavy as a thousand stones. A wave hitting the human body can cause broken bones and tendons at least, causing unconsciousness.

Fortunately, Jin'an and the abbot of Bailong Temple are not ordinary people. They possess the paper-cut man. One is covered with golden light, and the other is covered with yellow light. They push away the water waves around them, and the paper-cut man swims dryly in the direction of Qianku Cave that he vaguely remembers. .

The turbid waves were rolling under the water, stirring up a lot of yellow sand, and the visibility was not good.

It can almost be said that there is nothing visible at all, except for the endless darkness, it is all yellow sand.

The two paper-cut figures kept sinking, sinking.

It took quite a while to secure a position in the rapidly flowing river, stand on the river bed, and then start searching along the bank.

This process is boring.

It's like a blind man crossing a river by feeling for stones.

Fortunately, we finally found Thousand Cave Cave.

The characteristics of Qianku Cave are very obvious. There are big holes surrounded by small holes, one hole is connected with another, and the holes are connected with each other. When the two paper-cut figures touched Qianku Cave, there was a different cave inside.

Due to the difference in water pressure inside and outside the cave, the yellow sand and turbid waves outside the cave cannot affect the river water in Qianku Cave.

Although the river water in Qianku Cave is also yellow and turbid, it does not interfere with the sight as much as outside. The two paper-cut figures walked in the river in Qianku Cave and could barely see.

The water pressure inside and outside the cave is different, which means there is air in the cave.

Next, the two paper-cut figures began to walk underwater in Qiankudong.

Even though the soul was now possessed by the paper-cut man, Jin An still felt that the river water in the Thousand Cave Cave had a biting coldness compared to the Yinyi River water outside the cave.

This can be felt from the pressure of the soul.

"Fellow Taoist Jin'an, look at the river in front of you. Is there anything floating in the river?" the abbot suddenly pointed forward and said.

When the two paper-cut figures swam closer under the water, they discovered that it was a hemp rope.

Jin An's eyes were filled with surprise.

"Two groups of people came down from Qiankudong. The first group of people came from the fishing village on the river bank, and the second group of people came from the Fucheng military camp."

"When they enter Qianku Cave, they use hemp ropes as markers to prevent them from getting lost in Qianku Cave, which is like an underground maze."

"I wonder if this hemp rope belongs to the villagers in the fishing village? Or to the officers and soldiers of the military camp who suffered heavy casualties?"

As Jin An spoke, he followed the hemp rope in his hand and walked deeper with the abbot of Bailong Temple.

As a result, not far away, the two paper-cut figures saw a second hemp rope.

It's obvious.

Those Fucheng officers and soldiers followed the hemp rope marks left by the villagers in the fishing village from the beginning and explored deep into the Thousand Cave Cave.

The two paper-cut figures looked at each other and communicated with their souls. After a brief discussion, they decided to follow the official hemp rope and go forward to look for the bodies of the officers and soldiers who were swept away by the river.

The official hemp rope is still easy to identify, because more and more hemp ropes are found under the Qiankudong River.

However, when the government sent more than a thousand officers and soldiers to go down to the Thousand Cave, they did not reach the end or get out of the underground maze. Just looking at the two paper-cut figures in front of them, one can imagine the result.

The two paper-cut figures walked underwater for a long time, both of them had no clue.

Jin An finally learned what a maze the Thousand Cave Cave was like.

"Abbott, if we don't break this underwater maze today, even if there is a small drought in Fuyin that cuts off the current and asks us to go down to the river to pacify the Dragon King, we still won't be able to get out of this maze and won't be able to find the real Dragon King."

Jin An frowned and looked at Qianku Cave, where the water was calm.

As he went deeper into the Thousand Cave Cave, Jin An discovered a small detail. The river water in the Thousand Cave Cave was not stagnant water, but there was always water flowing into the cave.

This shows that there is a way to survive in these thousand caves, not a way to die.

It's just that they haven't found the correct way to locate the "shengmen" location yet.

Seeing that they had been underwater for too long, they estimated the time and found that it was almost dawn outside. They still had to leave enough time to return to land and return to their souls.

So their time is running out.

"I wonder if the abbot has discovered a detail. The river water in this thousand caves has been flowing. So many officers and soldiers drowned that day, but not even a single corpse was seen in these thousand caves. Those corpses should be all It was carried deep into the Thousand Cave Cave by the current."

The two paper-cut figures followed the rope underwater for a while, but still to no avail.

"Huh?"

"What's wrong, Abbot? Did you discover anything?"

"The words of fellow Taoist Jin'an have reminded me that I know how to break through the enchantment array of thousands of caves. I am not sure about 10% or 10%, but I am already 50% or 60% sure." The abbot of Bailong Temple possessed both hands. The girl with a round head said suddenly with confidence.

Jin An asked what method?

"I wonder if Taoist fellow Jin'an has ever heard of the ancient profession of corpse fishermen?" The abbot of Bailong Temple wanted to twist his beard, but when he touched his chin, he realized awkwardly that he was now possessed by the girl's paper-cutting figure, and his chin was not bare. beard.

"Since this Thousand Caves Cave can eat people, it also takes the people it eats deep into the cave. This just leaves a loophole for the Thousand Caves Cave. The job of the corpse fishermen is not just to go into the water to find dead people, but to salvage alive people." A corpse that no one can salvage?"

"The body fishermen have a special physique. They have the appearance of a living person and a dead person. Not only can this underwater ghost hide his eyes from them, but even the tens of millions of corpses under these thousands of caves cannot see the corpse fishermen. If we can find the corpse fishermen to lead the way, , but the corpse fishermen are more at home than us, and it is easier to find a way out of the depths of the Thousand Cave Cave."

Well.

The paper-cut figure of the second-generation rich lady holding a sword suddenly fell silent.
