The light of the magic circle became brighter and brighter, and finally disappeared suddenly, as if it had merged into the land around Stone Village.
Dao Bazi is also a cultivator, but this is the first time he has seen someone like Gu Sheng who can mobilize such powerful power.
"What kind of spell is this?"
Dao Bazi asked with wide eyes.
Gu Sheng smiled slightly, "You'll know after you try it. Dao Bazi, just let people enter the circle and give it a try."
"I..."
Dao Bazi is a little speechless.
"Try it, it doesn't cost you money, let alone your life."
Gu Sheng said with a faint smile.
"Um..."
Dao Bazi hesitated again and again, and finally nodded.
"You! Come here!"
Dao Bazi ordered a bandit behind him.
"Brother Dao, I... I..."
The bandit was obviously reluctant.
But when Dao Bazi glared, the bandit immediately withered and had no choice but to move up obediently.
The bandit was definitely cursing at this time, but under Dao Bazi's order, he still walked up.
"Zizzizi!"
However, as soon as he got close to the circle, he made a "sizzling" sound.
The bandit's body was shaking as if it had been electrocuted.
Immediately afterwards, he let out a scream like a slaughtering pig and flew backwards.
"So awesome!"
Dao Bazi's face changed drastically when he saw this.
He immediately stepped forward to check on his men. Fortunately, the magic circle set up by Gu Sheng did not kill anyone. The bandit only suffered some minor injuries and was not seriously injured.
Dao Bazi stood up and looked at Gu Sheng with eyes filled with awe.
"Fairy! Your methods are really brilliant. I, Dao Bazi, have experienced this today. From now on, I, Dao Bazi, swear that I will never infringe on Stone Village again."
Dao Bazi knelt down in front of Gu Sheng again and said.
Seeing how sincere Dao Bazi was, Gu Sheng nodded, "Okay, get up."
Then, Dao Bazi stood up.
"Dao Bazi, let me ask you something, what is the situation with Big Beard Chen?"
Gu Sheng asked after walking forward.
Dao Bazi As soon as Gu Sheng asked this question, he immediately felt that his opportunity to perform had come.
"Fairy, that Big Beard Chen is the one who is the biggest obstacle among the gangsters here. He has a man nicknamed the Dog-Headed Military Advisor who specializes in giving him advice. He is very powerful."
Dao Bazi introduced.
"Kob-headed strategist?"
Gu Sheng became a little interested when he heard this.
Since it can be called a military force, it must have its own means.
"Then where is Big Beard Chen now?"
Gu Sheng continued to ask.
"I don't know. His whereabouts are uncertain. No one knows where he is. He is the only one looking for us, not us."
Dao Bazi shook his head.
Hearing this, Gu Sheng nodded thoughtfully, "Okay, I understand."
After saying that, Gu Sheng waved his hand towards Dao Bazi: "You can go, remember to promise me."
"Don't worry, I will never dare to come in here again Stone Village."
After Dao Bazi finished speaking, he left with all his men.
Watching a burst of dust flying, Fifth Master Zhang and Elder Shi looked sad.
Gu Sheng saw the mood of the two of them and asked with a faint smile, "What's wrong? Is there any problem?"
"Alas..."
Elder Shi sighed slightly, "Dao Bazi will definitely tell Big Beard Chen about the situation here, I don't know..."
Elder Shi didn't say the rest, but Gu Sheng already understood what he was thinking.
"Elder, I asked Dao Bazi to deliver this letter for me. I want to see how powerful that Big Beard Chen is."
Gu Sheng said with a smile.
"Um..."
Fifth Master Zhang was a little speechless, but didn't say much.
Following that, Stone Village everyone else also returned to the village.
After returning to the village, everyone had a solemn expression on their faces.
They know what the departure of Dao Bazi means.
In silence, everyone came to the meeting hall of the village.
This is usually the place where important matters are discussed in the village, and the participants are all those who have important opinions in the village.
In the meeting hall, the lights were brightly lit, and a huge wooden table occupied the center of the room.
There are wooden chairs carved with various patterns of exotic animals placed around, which gives people a shocking feeling.
In addition, Gu Sheng also noticed that some ancient weapons that had never been seen before were hung on the walls of the meeting hall, which seemed to be thousands of years old.
After everyone sat down, an old man from the village appeared with gray hair and traces of time on his face.
He stood up and said in a hoarse voice, "Elder, the situation is critical now. Do you think it's time to pray to the sacred mountain to protect us Stone Village from this difficulty?"
Elder Shi nodded. "I think so."
Then, Elder Shi looked at Fifth Master Zhang.
Fifth Master Zhang, as one of the elders in the village.
After hearing this, there was some worry in his eyes.
After a brief silence, he said solemnly, "Yes, this is a major event for our village, and it is reasonable to pray for the blessing of the sacred mountain."
Elder Shi also stood up, "I will also participate in this prayer. After all, this is a major matter related to the life and death of our village."
Gu Sheng listened, frowning slightly.
He is a large man who has traveled through time in the 21st century and is not interested in these superstitious things.
But when he saw how convinced everyone was, he couldn't help but ask, "Fifth Master Zhang, where is the sacred mountain you are talking about?"
Fifth Master Zhang turned his head, looked at Gu Sheng, and then introduced, "The Pingtou Mountain that is thirty miles away from our village is the sacred mountain. It is not only our Stone Village restricted area, but also the holy land of all nearby villages."
"Restricted area? Holy land?"
Gu Sheng couldn't help but feel speechless after hearing this.
He knew that this so-called sacred mountain was just an ordinary mountain, only given a mysterious color because of some ancient legends.
"That's right! The sacred mountain is full of strange phenomena, and only Fifth Master Zhang is qualified to pray."
At this time, a young man standing nearby said.
"Only Fifth Master Zhang? What do you mean?"
Gu Sheng turned his head and asked the young man who just spoke.
"Er Gou! Stop talking nonsense."
At this time Fifth Master Zhang suddenly spoke, seeming a little taboo.
"Haha..."
Elder Shi suddenly smiled and then explained, "Little Sheng doesn't know the customs here. Anyone who doesn't know is not guilty. There is no harm in telling him."
After saying that, Elder Shi chao Er Gou winked.
Er Gou After understanding, he started to introduce.
It turns out that the ancestors of Fifth Master Zhang are also a branch of cultivators, but they practice not various realms, but a technique called Source-Seeking Ore.
Since many cultivators need Source Ore to catalyze their cultivation, Fifth Master Zhang is still very popular.
Moreover, his ancestor specially compiled "Heavenly Book of Source-Seeking" in order to let future generations learn it.
Rumor has it that this book is an ancient book that can control powerful cultivators.
""Heavenly Book of Source-Seeking"?"
Upon hearing this name, Gu Sheng's eyes suddenly lit up.
"There is such a technique? Then doesn't Fifth Master Zhang now have unlimited resources?"
Gu Sheng asked in surprise.
"No no no!"
Fifth Master Zhang waved his hand quickly, "Then "Heavenly Book of Source-Seeking" has long since disappeared into the sacred mountain with my grandpa Taizu, so only the fur spells in the heavenly book have been passed down. I'm ashamed... I'm ashamed!"
Gu Sheng felt that Fifth Master Zhang felt very uncomfortable.
"Old Zhang, it's okay. Everything has its own fate, and the Book of Heaven is no exception. There is no need to blame yourself."
Gu Sheng said with a smile.
"Brother Little Sheng is right, fate, haha..."
The person next to him laughed as he said this, and cast an appreciative look at Gu Sheng.
In this way, the council came to this result.
Fifth Master Zhang did not refuse. After leaving the meeting hall, he turned around and returned to his residence.
Out of curiosity, Gu Sheng, Er Gou and several young people followed Fifth Master Zhang to his home.
Back home, Fifth Master Zhang's face no longer had the seriousness in the meeting hall.
On the contrary, he was quite solemn and pious at this time.
"Er Gou, you young people can help and lift that table out."
Fifth Master Zhang ordered.
"Yes."
Er Gou responded, and directly led a few people to carry out an old desk table from the house and placed it in the center of the yard.
The table was filled with several kinds of tributes, including fresh fruits and whole grains.
In addition, there is also a scented candle handmade by Fifth Master Zhang.
After the tributes were placed, Fifth Master Zhang lit the fragrance.
Wisps of green smoke rose slowly, carrying a faint scent of sandalwood.
Then, Fifth Master Zhang faced the direction of the sacred mountain and began to salute and kneel down.
"Mimiya..."
Fifth Master Zhang muttered words as if he was having a conversation with the sacred mountain.
Gu Sheng and other young people stood aside and quietly observed all this.
Gu Sheng is curious about this ritual.
To be honest, he doesn't trust him, but he should still maintain due respect.
After all, this is the tradition of the village and Fifth Master Zhang's belief in the sacred mountain.
"Huh..."
At this moment, a southeasterly wind blew suddenly.
The wind was so strong that the incense candles on the table were blown around.
Fifth Master Zhang saw this, his expression changed, and he stopped moving.
There was a frustrated expression on his face, and an uneasy look in his eyes.
Gu Sheng noticed the changes in Fifth Master Zhang, walked up and asked, "Old Zhang, what's wrong? Is there something wrong with the wind?"
"Alas..."
Fifth Master Zhang sighed and stood up slowly.
"The southeast wind is blowing. This is not a good sign. In our Stone Village legend, the southeast wind heralds the coming of disaster."
Fifth Master Zhang looked sad.
Gu Sheng frowned after hearing this.
Although this is a bit sinister, seeing how serious Fifth Master Zhang is, it's hard to refute it directly.
"Lao Zhang, the change in wind direction is just a natural phenomenon and does not necessarily herald disaster."
Fifth Master Zhang was silent for a while after listening to Gu Sheng's words.
But the uneasiness in my heart could never be calmed down.
He looked at Gu Sheng, then at the other young people, and finally said, "Brother Little Sheng, you should worry more about the recent affairs in the village."
"Don't worry, I'm fine."
Gu Sheng nodded, then looked at the other young people. "What about you?"
"We have no problem either!"
Er Gou Those young people replied at the same time.
Soon, Fifth Master Zhang's prayers spread throughout the village.
Over the next few days, the atmosphere at Stone Village became tense.
Fifth Master Zhang and Elder Shi perform prayer rituals every day, hoping to be blessed by the sacred mountain.
Gu Sheng led Er Gou and other young people to start practical training.
That night, Gu Sheng had just finished dinner when he saw Fifth Master Zhang with a happy face.
"Lao Zhang, why are you so happy today?"
Gu Sheng asked with some curiosity. After all, he had been looking sad every day these past few days, as if he had lost a lot of money.
"Haha... Shenshan finally responded, and the disaster may be wiped out, haha..."
Fifth Master Zhang said with a cheerful look.
"Kamiyama reaction? Disaster erasure?"
Gu Sheng immediately became interested when he heard this, "What's your reaction?"
"There is a northwest wind, and there is a halo above the sacred mountain."
Fifth Master Zhang replied.
"Huh? Really?"
Gu Sheng became curious again.
"Can this be false? Go out and take a look. The halo over the sacred mountain has not dissipated yet."
Gu Sheng rushed out of the house and looked up at Pingtou Mountain in the distance.
At night, the outline of the mountain looked particularly clear under the moonlight.
And sure enough, as Fifth Master Zhang said, there seemed to be a faint halo of light rotating slowly above the top of the mountain.
The halo exudes a soft light, as if some important treasure is about to be born.
"This..."
Gu Sheng was filled with surprise.
The scene in front of him was indeed too strange, and Gu Sheng suddenly became curious.
He decided, no matter what, to find out on this special night.
In the dead of night, everyone in Stone Village has fallen asleep.
Gu Sheng got up quietly and walked out of the house.
He summoned the divine power in his body and flew in the night sky.
Soon, he landed quietly on the top of Pingtou Mountain.
There was silence all around the top of the mountain, except for the gentle sound of wind blowing in my ears.
Gu Sheng Looking around, I saw that the top of the mountain was bare. There was nothing special except for some gravel and a few stubbornly growing shrubs.
The only special thing is the halo, which looks more obvious.
The halo was suspended in the center of the mountain top, slowly rotating, emitting a faint light.
Gu Sheng approached cautiously.
At the curious colleague, he reached out his hand, wanting to touch the halo to see what it was.
At this moment, the halo suddenly flickered violently.
"Uh-huh!"
A powerful force burst out from the halo, sending Gu Sheng flying backwards.
Gu Sheng barely stabilized his body and looked at the halo in surprise.
"What is so powerful?"
Gu Sheng is a little confused.
Immediately, he summoned up his divine power and struck a palm in the direction of the halo.
"Huh..."
The divine power emitted by Gu Sheng was like a breeze, passing directly through the halo and disappearing into the vast night sky.
"How could this happen? It shouldn't be?"
Gu Sheng stood there and wondered.
If this halo really exists, then there should be feedback from my own power.
But now, the power was taken off directly, as if it never happened.
Therefore, the existence of this halo must be related to the mountain.
Moreover, the flatness of this mountain is a bit different!
"There must be some important treasure in this mountain!"
Gu Sheng was thinking secretly in his heart, thinking about how to split the mountain.
