Chapter 811 Mechanism

The inn was searched.
They found a small pill furnace for refining poisonous pills, some poisonous weeds, and hidden weapons that tempered poisonous pills.
In addition, there were several evil weapons and bones. I don’t know where the resentful souls were, but they died in the hands of these bandit cultivators. Their skin and flesh were scraped off and used to make elixirs.
The composition of this group of bandit cultivators is also relatively complex.
Some of them are gangsters who commit murder and swindle goods, some are alchemy masters who betrayed their masters, and some are cultivators who became cultivators on the way and practiced evil ways.
They were wanted by Daotingsi and ran around, and then were gathered here by Shui Yanluo.
But they don’t know much about Shui Yanluo, and they have been banned from talking about it for unknown reasons, so most of them can’t talk about it.
I can only guess and ask them to verify it, but I can’t find out by asking.
Mo Hua and the others had no choice but to check it themselves.
After another round of searches, apart from the inn itself, the most suspicious place was the carriage near the stables outside the inn.
Gu An found some flower petals near the carriage.
These petals, scattered on the ground, were rutted and mixed with the soil, making them dirty.
But Mo Hua can still be seen at a glance:
“This is a flower from the Valley of Flowers, but I don’t know the name.”
The flowers in the Baihua Valley were in clusters and of various types. He couldn’t recognize them, but he could still remember their general appearance.
Gu Changhuai nodded slightly, then became a little surprised and asked Mo Hua:
“How do you know it’s a flower from the Valley of Flowers...have you ever been in it?”
“Um……”
Mo Hua nodded subconsciously, halfway through, and then suddenly realized that he must not let anyone know about the fact that he wore a Baihua Valley Taoist robe and dressed up as a junior sister to sneak into Baihua Valley!
“No! I haven’t been there! It’s one of my senior sisters in Baihua Valley. She planted some flowers and I happened to see them!”
Mo Hua feels a little guilty.
“Oh.” Gu Changhuai said lightly.
He didn’t doubt it.
Because all male cultivators are prohibited from entering the Baihua Valley, no matter how great Mo Hua skills are, there is no way they can sneak into the Baihua Valley.
Gu Changhuai pondered in his heart.
Flowers in the Valley of Flowers.
A carriage with flowers like jade.
In this way, it can probably be explained that the carriage that Hua Ruyu rode in has indeed visited this inn.
This is a little strange...
Gu Changhuai said: “Bring someone over and ask.”
“Yes.” Gu An took the order, returned to the inn, picked a bandit cultivator who looked cowardly and talked a lot, and brought him to Gu Changhuai.
“Let me ask you,” Gu Changhuai said calmly, “Is there often a carriage parked here?”
The bandit cultivator looked flustered and did not speak.
Gu Changhuai looked indifferent: “Be honest, otherwise I have many ways to make it impossible for you to survive or die.”
He was a Jindan cultivator or a Taoist priest. He had captured or killed countless sin cultivators. His expression darkened, and he carried a formidable majesty.
The bandit cultivator looked frightened and said in a trembling voice: “Yes... there is a carriage...”
Gu Changhuai asked: “What kind of carriage?”
“A gorgeous, pink carriage with patterns painted on it,” the bandit cultivator described.
“Who is in the car?”
“I have no idea……”
Gu Changhuai frowned, “How could you not know?”
The bandit cultivator said: “Every ten days and a half, that float will come over, but brother...”
“Which eldest brother? Shui Yanluo?” Gu Changhuai asked.
“Yes, brothers on the road all use this name to call eldest brother,” the bandit cultivator said with a slightly pale face, “eldest brother has given instructions that once the carriage comes, all of us should hide in the inn and not go out. You can’t watch, you can’t listen to anything, otherwise…”
The bandit cultivator swallowed, “Otherwise, once you see something you shouldn’t see, your soul will be taken away and you will definitely die.”
If your soul is taken away, you will definitely die?
Gu Changhuai frowned.
Gu An and Gu Quan were startled, looking puzzled.
Only Mo Hua was thoughtful.
After that, Gu Changhuai asked a few more questions and couldn’t ask anything else, so he asked Gu An to escort the bandit cultivator back to the inn and lock him up.
Gu Changhuai pondered for a moment and concluded:
“First of all, the evidence is not conclusive, so many things are not certain yet, but we can make assumptions first...”
“Assuming that the woman’s carriage did stop here, it means that there must be something crucial in or around the inn that she needs to do.”
“And there is another carriage in this stable...”
Gu Quan nodded and said: “My brother and I just checked the ruts, and there are still some small traces. We can probably judge that someone drove here, got off the float, changed into the carriage in the post station, and then went somewhere.”
Everyone then turned their attention to the only carriage in the inn.
From the outside, this carriage looks simple in style, without decoration, and unremarkable, just like the cheap carriages that can be seen everywhere on the street.
But if you look closely, you will find that the materials used in the carriage are very unusual.
Although not flashy, it is unusually sturdy.
Moreover, the carriage is enclosed.
The door is also sealed.
It’s impossible to tell from the outside what’s going on in the car.
Several people walked around the carriage several times, but still found nothing. Gu Changhuai stretched out his hand, gathered his spiritual power, and tried to force open the closed door of the carriage.
But the moment his palm touched the carriage, a light flashed on the door.
The carriage shuddered and almost destroyed itself.
Fortunately, Gu Changhuai had some experience. The moment he saw the light, he stopped his hand, which prevented the carriage from self-destructing.
“It’s a self-destructive formation...” Gu Changhuai murmured.
Gu An and Gu Quan looked solemn, and then they both looked at Mo Hua.
Gu Changhuai also looked at Mo Hua.
Among the few, Mo Hua is the one with the best formation.
Although Gu Changhuai is a Jindan cultivator, he is far inferior to Mo Hua in terms of formations.
Mo Hua immediately raised his chest and raised his head:
“Let me take a look...”
He touched the door frame with his hand, and with Gu Changhuai on his back, his eyes were deep, and he used devious calculations to calculate the formation patterns in the car.
Gu Changhuai’s expression condensed. He felt that the aura on Mo Hua’s body had changed and became a little deeper and weird. However, he gradually became accustomed to it, so he didn’t say anything.
After a while, Mo Hua concluded:
“On the carriage, there is a door lock formation and a self-destruction formation. It is a resumption formation...”
He deduced based on the formation pattern and followed the flow of spiritual power on the pattern, and found the “keyhole” in the lower right corner of the car door, in a corner with carved wood grain.
This hole blends in with the wood grain and is difficult to spot.
Mo Hua concluded:
“Hua Ruyu should have a key in her hand.”
“You can only open this door if you have a key. If you force the door open without a key, the formation will be disrupted and the carriage will self-destruct...”
Gu An looked a little solemn, “In this case, we have to go back and find a way to get the key in Hua Ruyu’s hand?”
“No need.” Mo Hua said calmly, “Using a key to open the formation lock is what cultivators do. For the master, if you know the principle of the formation lock, the key is not necessary.”
00000000000000000000000000000
Mo Hua’s tone was normal, but there was still some pride that could not be concealed in his eyebrows.
Gu An and Gu Quan looked delighted and could not help but nod and praise:
“As expected of Young Master Mo.”
But Gu Changhuai still had some concerns, “This formation is probably of high quality. Is it okay?”
He just struck down with a palm, and through the force of the counter-shock, he knew that these formations might not be that simple.
“They are all second-grade formations, so there is no problem.” Mo Hua said.
Gu Changhuai said thoughtfully: “In the second-level formation, there are also junior high, middle and high levels. Even the high level has three levels of thresholds, seventeen, eighteen, nineteen. You are only in the middle stage of foundation building...”
“It’s okay,” Mo Hua said with a smile, “I’m a little over the top.”
Seeing Mo Hua’s confident look, Gu Changhuai stopped asking further questions.
As the Daoting Si Dian Si, with hundreds of officials of all sizes under his command, Gu Changhuai knew very well that “professional” things should be left to professionals.
Such professional matters as formations can naturally only be left to the most professional Mo Hua on the field.
He watched silently.
Mo Hua stared at the carriage, stretched out his hand a little, and in the middle of clicking, he suddenly remembered something, so he honestly took out his pen and ink and drew something on the door.
As he was drawing, Gu Changhuai’s forehead jumped.
He expected that Mo Hua was trying to break up the formation.
He didn’t quite understand how to explain it specifically, but at least he could count the number of formation patterns.
Eighteen lines!
He is solving the formation of the Eighteen Patterns!
A cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building is solving the formation of the Eighteen Patterns.
Even Gu Changhuai, who was used to seeing incredible things happening to Mo Hua, could not hold his breath at this time.
“Eighteen lines...”
Gu Changhuai took a slight breath of air.
Some veteran formation masters at the peak of foundation building may not be able to draw the formation of the Eighteen Patterns, let alone solve it, even if their spiritual awareness is not very good.
I’m afraid this is far from being as simple as ‘super-class”...
Gu Changhuai’s mood fluctuated for a while.
On the other side, Mo Hua was still concentrating on solving the formation.
He drew the formation pattern of the liberation formation, and then injected spiritual power to activate it. With a flash of golden light, the formation patterns went forward and reversed, eliminating each other.
The second-grade door lock array was abolished by Mo Hua.
Then Mo Hua drew a circle on the door, turned to Gu Changhuai and said, “Uncle Gu, aim here and punch it.”
Only then did Gu Changhuai come to his senses and nodded.
He stepped forward and punched lightly. A hole was blown out of the door, but the carriage was still intact and did not self-destruct.
Mo Hua stretched his hand along the hole, groped for something behind, and opened the carriage door with a creak.
Inside the carriage, it was gloomy and dark.
After the car door opened, a ray of light shone in.
Mo Hua squinted and found that it was empty inside, with no one around and only a few cushions.
A kind of old rouge aroma that has been covered in dust for a long time lingers on the tip of the nose.
Mo Hua walked in quietly, turned over the cushions, and found two handkerchiefs, a sachet, some finely chopped spices, like pollen in the sachet, and some traces of powder.
“There have been many women in the carriage...”
Mo Hua said silently in his heart.
Moreover, the miscellaneous auras were mixed together, and it was obvious that they were not the same group of women.
This Hua Ruyu, on the surface, is a tutor from Baihua Valley, but behind the scenes, she is probably doing some shady business.
Mo Hua glanced at Gu Changhuai.
Gu Changhuai’s expression was cold and his eyes were sharp, and he was obviously aware of this.
only……
Gu Changhuai frowned.
Hua Ruyu, a woman, was very cautious and did not leave too many traces in this carriage.
The clues are still broken here.
They still have no idea where this carriage will go, who it will transport, or who it will transport...
Mo Hua also frowned.
He looked at the carriage for a moment, and suddenly he was startled. He noticed something unusual, squatted on the ground, and started knocking on the floor of the carriage one by one.
When he hit one of the wooden boards near the front of the car, a hollow sound came from the wooden boards.
After Mo Hua opened the wooden board, he found that there was still a set of formations inside.
He looked at the formation patterns on the formation, and his eyes immediately lit up.
Seeing this, Gu Changhuai couldn’t help but ask: “What is this?”
Mo Hua said: “It’s the internal driving formation of the carriage.”
Seeing that Gu Changhuai didn’t quite understand, Mo Hua explained:
“This carriage has a cordless carriage. I thought it was strange before, but now I understand after seeing the formation. This carriage looks like a carriage, but it is not actually a “horse” carriage.”
“This vehicle does not use horses to pull it. Instead, it uses mechanism techniques to embed a set of complex formations to drive the vehicle forward.”
“And the formation hidden under this wooden board is a mechanism-driven complex formation embedded in this carriage.”
Gu Changhuai pondered for a moment, then his heart skipped a beat, “Does that mean...”
“Yes.” Mo Hua nodded, “As long as the complex formation is activated, the spiritual power of the complex formation will flow and it will automatically drive the mechanism to rotate and urge the carriage to move forward.”
“And this complex formation also has a set of Yuanci Sinan Formation embedded in it.”
“This Sinan Formation is used for positioning.”
“The carriage will follow the positioning of Yuanci’s Southern Formation and take us to the destination on its own...”
Mo Hua said logically and clearly.
Gu Changhuai and the other three looked slightly shocked, and then marveled in their hearts.
This is the formation, encompassing everything in the world.
This is the formation master, who uses formations to understand and control all kinds of knowledge and abilities...
“Can this car leave now?” Gu Changhuai asked with a slightly solemn expression.
Mo Hua said: “This is a new re-formation system. I have to spend some time and think about it a little bit.”
“Okay.” Gu Changhuai nodded.
Then Gu Changhuai and the others held their breath and concentrated not making any sound so as not to disturb Mo Hua.
Mo Hua concentrated on studying this set of complex formations, which were compatible with the Yuanci Sinan Formation and the mechanism-driven formation.
Yuanci Sinan Formation, Mo Hua is barely familiar with it.
0000000000000000000000000000000
But he had never really come into contact with mechanism-driven formations before.
However, he had learned the first-level twelve patterns, the secret skill of Xiaolingyin Sect - Lingshu Jue Formation.
The Lingshu Jue Formation involves the formation sequence and the manipulation of spiritual threads, which is similar to the mechanism technique.
In Nanyue City, Mo Hua also used Lingshu Jueba to build some “wooden oxen and flowing horses” for the poor mine repairmen to save manpower and carry ore.
Therefore, he still understands the general principle of the formation.
Time is limited, and he doesn’t need to master it, he just needs to reactivate the formation.
The formation in front of him was dim and dull, obviously malfunctioning.
Mo Hua pondered carefully.
In this way, about half an hour passed, his eyes lit up, and he gradually gained an idea.
This mechanism, like the door of the carriage, is opened by the same key.
However, the formation on the door was broken by Mo Hua, and the door lock was broken. The control entrance of this mechanism complex formation was also destroyed.
Since the “entrance” for intervention is gone, the formation cannot be opened, the formation eyes cannot supply energy, the mechanism driving formation fails, and the carriage cannot move.
“In this case, we need to change the structure of the array pivot, cut off the original entrance, connect the opening and closing array patterns externally, and build our own spirit gathering array as an eye of the array, embedded in the complex array, to provide energy for the original mechanism array... …”
Mo Hua muttered something that Gu Changhuai and the others could not understand at all.
After that, Mo Hua took out his pen and ink and began to reconstruct the formation step by step according to his own ideas.
Gu Changhuai and the other three watched attentively.
But they don’t know what they are looking at...
After about a stick of incense, Mo Hua finally finished drawing the formation, and then checked it again, and couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
“It should be almost done...”
Mo Hua reached out and took out the spirit stone from his storage bag.
But halfway through, he quietly stuffed his spirit stone back, then stretched out his hand and said to Gu Changhuai:
“Uncle Gu, I need to use spirit stones.”
This is official business, and the spiritual stones spent should be reimbursed.
Gu Changhuai was not stingy either. He took out a storage bag and threw it directly to Mo Hua.
Mo Hua took the storage bag, took out the spirit stone, crushed it and placed it on the spirit gathering array, allowing the spirit gathering array to absorb the spiritual power and use it as an eye to empower the mechanism array.
The spirit gathering array absorbed the spiritual power, and the blue light was shining brightly.
With a thought in his mind, Mo Hua activated the formation through the interface he built.
A stream of pure spiritual power flowed out from the spirit gathering array and merged into the mechanism complex array that came with the carriage.
Then the carriage shuddered, swayed, and turned on its own.
Several people immediately supported the carriage.
Gu Changhuai also supported the shaky ink painting.
The carriage shuddered, turned, and turned around.
Yuanci’s southern formation lit up and set a direction.
The carriage followed that direction and drove forward on its own, as if by mistake.
“Dianji, we...” Gu An looked worried.
Gu Changhuai thought for a moment and said, “Let’s just sit in the carriage and follow along to see where the carriage will stop...”
“Yes.” Gu An and Gu Quan nodded.
The carriage creaked and moved forward silently.
Mo Hua picked a futon and sat down honestly.
He also wanted to see where the Yuanci Sinan Formation was pointing and where this carriage would take him.
It’s best to take it directly to the evil god’s stronghold.
As soon as he got out of the car, he could see an altar, which was perfect.
Of course, just think about ink painting.
He knew it would never be such a good thing...
Mo Hua took out some more spirit stones, crushed them, and charged the spirit gathering array.
These spirit stones should be enough.
But there are still a lot of spiritual stones left in the storage bag.
Mo Hua originally wanted to return the storage bag to Uncle Gu, but then he thought about it. Uncle Gu’s family has a big business and a lot of money. If he gave something to him, if he returned it to him, wouldn’t it be disrespectful to him and look down on him as a Tao Ting Si? Noriji?
Mo Hua nodded silently and put the spirit stone into his arms.
This is considered hard work.
Although he has not passed the examination, he is a “quasi” second-grade high-level formation master, so it is reasonable to do a favor and receive some spiritual stones as a reward.
Mo Hua felt at ease.
The machine array is turning, and the carriage is moving on its own amidst the sound of “creeping”.
The car is closed and the surroundings are dull.
Mo Hua sat in the car and headed to an unknown place, feeling a little nervous, but thinking that Gu Changhuai was by his side made him feel more at ease.
This is the second-grade realm, and it seems that this carriage cannot go very far, so as long as you hold Uncle Gu’s thigh tightly, you will be safe.
Mo Hua felt relieved, turned around and felt a little bored, so he focused on the mechanism complex in the car.
This was the first time he saw a real “organ formation”.
This is another formation system with a special pattern.
The mechanism formations in the car seemed to have something in common with some of the Five Elements Bagua he had seen before, including the Lingshu Jue Formation.
But after careful deduction, there seem to be many discrepancies.
“If there is an opportunity in the future, I should also look for opportunities to learn the machine formation...”
If he learns the mechanism formation, integrates it into the Lingshu Jue formation, and coordinates it, he might be able to create a “puppet army”...
Mo Hua couldn’t help but think about it.
Just like this, Mo Hua was thinking, the machine array was circulating, the carriage was driving...
After an unknown amount of time, the carriage suddenly stopped.
It seems that we have reached our destination.
Several people looked slightly solemn.
Gu An gave Gu Changhuai a look asking for permission and whispered: “Do you want to go down?”
Gu Changhuai shook his head slightly.
“Just wait and see what happens.”
Everyone waited in the car and did not act rashly.
After a while, along with the sound of water and the collision of the ship’s eaves, it seemed that something was approaching the shore.
At the same time, a clear male voice came:
“You’re not even fifteen yet, why did you bring someone here?”
Gu Changhuai and others in the car were silent.
The atmosphere was a little dull for a while.
The man outside the car was a little confused and said: “Why don’t you say anything? Are you angry? Weren’t you before...”
Before the man could finish speaking, he suddenly realized something was wrong.
His expression changed, and an inexplicable evil aura emanated from his body, which seemed to be soaked in cold blood and cruel killing intent.
Sensing this aura, Mo Hua’s pupils narrowed.
This breath...
Could this man just be...
Water Yama, right? !
