For Japanese people, Wang Dao Xuan is no stranger to them.
During the Battle of Luoyang, the Japanese forces planned sabotage operations and helped Ghost Emperor Wang Xuanmo by infiltrating White Horse Temple and impersonating Maitreya Sect.
Outside the palace, an old Japanese monk performed the shikigami "Aoi no Goryo, Nightmare of Hyakumonogatari" on City God Temple, and insisted on calling himself Inviting the Gods, but was ridiculed by Yin JiuGe.
Although it was finally broken, Yin JiuGe was also seriously injured and completely withdrawn from the world.
In short, Japan's Xuanmen magic system was greatly influenced by Central Plains.
Onmyodo originated from the pre-Qin Yin-Yang and Five Elements theory, and many ninjutsu originated from Daoist Dunjia. Ninja schools such as Hattori Hanzo Lineage, whose ancestral home is also Minzhou.
But due to regional customs, it has taken a different path.
More vicious and cruel, and good at fighting ghosts.
With Wang Dao Xuan's way of doing things, they can naturally cope with it easily.
However, there was not just one wave of attacks.
Just when Wang Dao Xuan had just defused a sneak attack with a hidden weapon--
"Bo!" There was a dull sound.
The soft mud beneath his feet collapsed and softened without warning.
A huge and sticky suction force instantly wrapped around his legs.
The mud seemed to come to life.
Ninjutsu: Earth Release and Mire Bound!
"Little tricks!"
Wang Dao Xuan still had a calm expression on his face. He changed his hand gestures with his left hand and pointed down with his right hand. A Yellow Talisman was caught between his fingers at some point and shot into the mud with a "swish"!
"Town!"
The talisman sank into the mire and burned instantly.
The biting cold suddenly broke out.
Click... click!
A layer of frost formed on the surface of the originally sticky and crawling mud at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then cracks appeared.
Wang Dao Xuan stretched out his legs and the frozen mud fell down.
All this happened in a short period of time.
Neither Lu San nor Wu Ba came to help.
Once they understood, these methods could not harm Wang Dao Xuan at all.
Secondly, the real attack is yet to come!
"Over there!"
The hissing sound of a poisonous snake came from the grass, and Lu San immediately waved his hand and threw out the steel cone.
As soon as the steel cone sank into the grass, Blade Light suddenly appeared and swung the steel cone away.
"Roar!"
Wu Ba roars like thunder on the ground!
He jumped out suddenly, his huge body carrying the sound of the wind.
While he was in mid-air, he clenched his palm like a cattail fan, and the specially made steel glove fell from his arm guard, and was blasted out with violent energy.
Before the punch came, the grass had been crushed by the wind.
Sure enough, two ninjas were hiding inside.
In the rain and fog, a black shadow that almost melted into the night, like an extremely slippery water snake, wormed and twirled close to the inside of Wu Ba's thick arm.
Like a poisonous snake slithering up the pole.
The short blade in the black shadow's hand flashed with cold light, and a sharp kunai, which was more than a foot long and had a blade shining with a faint blue light, silently swiped towards Wu Ba's ribs.
This is the art of ninja assassination.
To be able to achieve such a level is obviously a master among ninjas.
"Get out!" Wu Ba groaned, and all the muscles in his body suddenly swelled.
He didn't avoid it at all. He tightened his lower abdomen and bent his elbow like a siege hammer.
Wu family Baji Collapse Strength, fight closely!
Bang!
The violent energy and power exploded.
Blood and flesh splattered everywhere, and the ninja was beaten into two pieces.
However, there is more than one hidden attacker.
Just as the first ninja rushed out, another black shadow stepped on his back and jumped into the air, like an upside-down ghost bat, swooping down without warning.
The person was already spinning rapidly in mid-air, arms waving.
"Buzz--!"
A dense mass of Poison Needle, shining with faint blue light, spread out like a heavy rain.
Its attack range is extremely wide, covering Wu Ba, Wang Dao Xuan below, and Lu San located slightly behind.
Ninjutsu: Heavy Rain Senbon!
The two of them work together flawlessly.
However, he obviously underestimated everyone's abilities.
Lu San stepped forward sideways, shook the cloak in his hand, turned Martial Power, and used a clever trick to spin the cloak into an umbrella.
The steel needles fired at the two of them were all blocked.
As for Wu Ba, his body suddenly pressed down, his muscles bulged again, and a wave of energy flowed around his body, like an iron vajra in a temple, and his skin even shone with a metallic sheen.
Huaguang Martial Arts·Secret Fighting.
Ding ding ding!
A series of fine and rapid sounds, Poison Needle was all bounced away.
The ninja in the air had frightened eyes, obviously he had never seen such a method.
He twisted around forcefully, shook his hand, and the kunai with the steel wire whizzed out, nailed it to the tree opposite, and led him to change direction in the air, trying to escape.
But Wu Ba's attack has also just begun.
The left fist Eight Extremities Supporting Hammer strikes hard and straight, as if it is lifting fire to the sky.
There was another muffled sound, and the ninja was beaten to pieces.
Wu Ba closed his fist and smiled, "Scumbag~"
Lu San, who was in the rear, always had an expressionless face, his eyes swept deep into the grass, and he frowned and said, "There seems to be another one who has run away. The escape technique can use the rain to hide the smell."
Wang Dao Xuan shook his head slightly, "It's a pity that I didn't catch a tongue."
After that, he looked at the cave in the grass and said, "Let's move quickly. These Japanese people are probably the ones who sneaked into the city to cause trouble. This matter may not be easy."
"Let's go!"
Looking at the dark hole, Lu San dived into it without hesitation. Little White Fox was the first to twitch his nose to explore the way, followed closely by Wang Dao Xuan and Wu Ba.
The tunnel is narrow and deep, and there is a smell of earth, rust and decay.
The air was stuffy and humid, and every few steps I took, I had to step firmly on the slippery mud.
Rainwater seeped through the hole and accumulated cold water in low-lying areas.
After walking forward for more than ten feet, through the dim light of the fire, my eyes suddenly opened up.
But I saw a masonry corridor that could accommodate two people walking side by side extending into the darkness. The ground was paved with neat stone slabs, and the wall bases on both sides were piled with huge strips of stone. Although the arch on the top had many cracks, it was still strong.
Wang Dao Xuan frowned and stroked the vague "Built under the supervision of Daxing in the third year" mark on a stone, "This is the underground military road in Zhongdu during the Jin Dynasty! The Jin Dynasty mentioned that the gold master imitated the Bianliang Tibetan Army Road and built it with strips of stone mixed with glutinous rice mortar, but no one found it... Old Ghost The capital is really not simple, even this has been found."
But a few dozen steps ahead, there was a large landslide.
Broken trees and new soil blocked the way, and a few broken kunai were scattered among the rubble.
"It's newly collapsed." Lu San squatted down and picked up a piece of soil. The wet mud was mixed with dry sand and smelled it again. "It smells like gunpowder. It's probably the escape arrangement of Old Ghost."
Zhizhi--
Little White Fox Chu Qi suddenly raised his head, the tip of his nose moved like a fan, and instantly disappeared into a branch road half-covered by gravel.
The three of them immediately followed.
This tunnel extends in all directions, but several areas have collapsed.
After twisting and turning, crawling through narrow cracks like a dog hole, I finally found a hidden stone room.
On the weapons rack covered with cobwebs and dust, there were rusted iron spears lying upside down.
The earthen pot was broken into pieces, and the pickled vegetables had long since turned into black mud.
There is a person huddled in the corner, with gray hair and an unkempt face.
It is the capital city Old Ghost!
This Old Ghost's face was covered in blood, and there was a ferocious knife wound on his chest that was so deep that the bones were visible. His dirty and tattered jacket was soaked in blood, and there was a black and purple color next to the knife edge.
His breathing was as weak as a gossamer, and he was holding a broken straw rope tightly in his hand.
Three dim Auspicious Coin are tied to the rope.
"There's still help!"
Wang Dao Xuan quickly stepped forward and poured out a longan-sized red elixir from the gourd.
This is the healing elixir refined by the Hundred Herbs Hall Ge Pusheng.
Not only can it stop bleeding quickly, but it can also suppress common poisonous poisons.
The old man had a sullen temper. He obviously longed for excitement, but he kept his airs and rarely talked to other masters in the academy. He was only familiar with Wang Jingxiu.
Wang Dao Xuan and Long Yan'er learned from him and got a lot of elixirs.
When the elixir Old Ghost is put in the mouth, it turns into liquid when it touches the saliva and flows down the throat.
At the same time, Wang Dao Xuan also tore open his clothes, flew golden needles to seal the heart acupoint, and used the talisman to eliminate Yin Energy.
Several methods were used at the same time, and it immediately had a miraculous effect.
"Well..."
Old Ghost's throat rolled, he suddenly choked and coughed out a mouthful of black blood, and his eyes became distracted and struggled to focus.
"But where are Old Ghost and Lin Yu in the capital?"
Wang Dao Xuan squatted down and asked urgently.
Old Ghost glanced at the three of them, silently, his eyes full of vigilance.
After Wang Dao Xuan explained his identity and purpose of coming, and learned that the other party had saved him, his dry lips moved and his voice was hoarse. "He... they entered Nine Gates Yin Ruins."
"Nine Gates Yin Ruins?"
Wang Dao Xuan was confused at first, then Spiritual Light flashed in his mind, and he immediately understood the reason.
And Beijing Old Ghost also told the story...
Three days ago, Tuer Ye Temple was under the wall.
Lin Yu squatted beside the bucket of rotten rice, with a fawning smile on his fair and fat face. He took out the three-eyed animal-faced stone sculpture from his arms. "Senior Old Ghost, tell the truth."
"Is this thing really a 'Nuo God Tomb' treasure? Where is Mount Taodu Wood?"
In the shadow of the corner, Jingcheng Old Ghost poked his head out.
Staring at this object, he seemed to be recalling something in his eyes, and then said in a cold voice, "Nuo God Tomb has long been bombarded into pieces by the Tai Xuan Orthodox Sect with lightning. How can there be any clues."
Kong Shangzhao Hearing this, his face was immediately filled with disappointment.
Three people are interested in Mount Taodu Wood for different reasons.
Lin Yu Fatty Lin, firstly, to satisfy curiosity, secondly, something happened to Lineage, which affects many lives and deaths, and I am eager to find this legendary thing, maybe there will be a chance to turn things around.
Kuai Dayou is a craftsman, and this treasure can be made into a long-awaited magic weapon.
As for Kong Shangzhao, he is interested in the matter of "Living Underworld Messenger".
He is restless by nature and hates all kinds of rules, so he caused trouble at Kong family. During the time he stayed at Commandery Commandant Office, although he was treated politely, he was almost going crazy.
I have been following Li Yan and the others all the way, and I have long wanted to join the team.
When I become bookish, I can be very irrational at times.
Thinking that if you find this ancient clue of "Living Underworld Messenger", you can join Twelve Yuan Chen.
Both of them were disappointed, but Fatty Lin refused to give up. He smiled and took out a gold cake from his arms, "Old senior, they can't do it, but you can definitely do it."
"You also know that I am from the Lin Family. If I can do this, any conditions will apply?"
In the shadows, Jingcheng Old Ghost was silent for a moment, "There is also a chance."
"You said it!"
The three of them immediately became interested.
Capital City Old Ghost said in a deep voice, "I know something about this. In the past, the Jin Kingdom National Teacher used it to confer the title of 'Chief of the Evil Omens'. They were deeply involved with the ghost sect. Seeing that Xuanmen had united and Golden Horde Wolf Country invaded the south, the Jin Kingdom was about to disappear, so they released it and tried to use it to practice powerful magic. Unfortunately, it caused a catastrophe."
"Later, it was turned into ashes by Xuanmen's thunder from the sky, but Peach Mountain Wood disappeared mysteriously. I don't know who stole it secretly."
"Want to know the whereabouts..."
His claw-like fingers pointed to the Northeast ground, "Only Nine Gates Yin Ruins!"
"Nine Gates Yin Ruins This is a place where 'heaven and earth are at war, yin and yang hang upside down'. There are traces of old scenes left there, which can trace back to the scene of 'dramatic changes in the earth's nodes'."
"When lightning struck Nuo God Temple, there was a lot of movement, and there might be clues left behind. However, due to what happened before, Court of the Imperial Clan was on strict precautions, so I'm afraid the danger is not small."
Fatty Lin rolled his eyes, "Qiankun Academy The hospital is about to open, and Court of the Imperial Clan's elite personnel have been sent away to protect us. This may be an opportunity."
"Oh?"
The capital Old Ghost thought for a while, nodded and said, "It's dangerous there. Since you are not afraid, I can help you. Use the 'Three Yang Soul Anchoring' method to protect your body, and then use Auspicious Coin to lock the soul aperture, so that you can temporarily Yin Soul leave your body and enter the Yin Ruins to explore!"
"Later, it did succeed..."
In the cave, Jingcheng Old Ghost continued to talk about what happened next.
"Fat boy Lin found these three treasures and used Court of the Imperial Clan to defend the void. I set up a formation to let them enter."
"But I waited and waited, and no one came out after a while."
"I was worried, so I cast a spell to summon the spirits, but I didn't expect that the three of them, Yin Soul, were not recalled, and the Japanese pirate demons also attacked me."
"To prevent accidents, I lured people here."
"You will know what happens next..."
Following the direction indicated by Old Ghost, the three of Wang Dao Xuan searched deep into the tunnel, and finally found a natural stone chamber deep in the underground cave near Ji Nei City.
I saw three people, Lin Yu, Kuai Dayou, and Kong Shangzhao, sitting cross-legged in a cross-legged shape, with Three Yang Soul Anchoring straw mats prepared by Old Ghost in the capital spread under their bodies, and a Weisheng copper coin hanging above each head.
No wonder the three of them dared to take risks.
The place Old Ghost found in the capital was much safer than before.
Even if Court of the Imperial Clan is alarmed, he can still escape by recovering his soul in time.
The three of them looked rosy and seemed to be sleeping soundly, but there was a cold and deathly air lingering around them -
"This is a sign that Yin Soul has been out of the body for too long."
Wang Dao Xuan felt the pulse, shook his head and said, "The breath is still there, the person is still alive, but if it drags on any longer, it may be difficult for the gods to save him."
Lu San said in a low voice, "Daoist Priest, what do you think we should do?"
Wang Dao Xuan pondered for a moment, "We can't tell Commandery Commandant Office. Nine Gates Yin Ruins involves the Daxuan Dragon Vein, which is taboo for the imperial court. Once it is leaked, these three will not be able to survive."
"Yan XiaoGe didn't have time to notify the other side, so we can only go in and look for it."
Lu San nodded and said, "Using Old Ghost's method in the capital, we can get in. The Daoist Master can cast spells outside to protect our bodies, but the situation inside is unknown. What if the Japanese come to attack us again?"
"I have a way."
Old Ghost, who was in the capital next to him, said, "But secretly tell Commandery Commandant Office that those Japanese people are hiding nearby. With them here, it will be difficult for the Japanese people to interfere, and they will not know that we are hiding underground."
"Okay, thank you, senior!"
Wang Dao Xuan is no nonsense. Let Lu San follow Old Ghost first and see if he releases the news.
Afterwards, the formation altar was set up again in this underground cave.
Just like that night, Wang Dao Xuan affixed the "soul-leaving talisman" to the spiritual point between their eyebrows, clasped the root of their ring finger with their thumb, put the remaining three fingers together, and recited:
"Jiuyou Kaitai, the soul comes out Xuan Gate... Edict!"
As the incantation sounded, Lu San and Wu Ba felt their bodies empty and rushed through the thick fog.
The thick fog gradually faded, and in the haze, the ancient and dilapidated streets of the capital appeared in front of their eyes...
