Immortality: Start Cultivating Immortality From Pingshan Mountain Chapter 167

Chapter 167 The Ancient Building and the Sutra Curtain Suppress the Demonic Dragon

 “Ghost town?”

“Did Yuan Hong really say that?”

 Between dense forests.

Chen Yulou frowned slightly as he looked at Kunlun who was hurried back.

They had only left for a few minutes. I thought the two of them were very fast, but they didn't expect to bring back such a piece of news.

 “Yes, the shopkeeper, word for word.”

Kunlun nodded.

 He actually didn't know whether it was a ghost town or a demon realm.

But having grown up in the mountains since childhood, he has a sensitivity to danger that is close to that of animals.

That area is really weird.

 “Okay, I get it.”

In the dense forest ahead, the slowly flowing thick fog seemed to have dispersed for the most part in an instant, and the blurry vision gradually became clearer.

"how come?"

This will make the atmosphere less tense.

 He couldn't help but feel a sinking feeling in his heart.

 That guy Yuan Hong had already entered the Qi-nourishing state quietly.

Chen Yulou stood beside Yuan Hong with his horse in hand.

 “Go, lead the way, go see what's going on.”

 It seemed as if something was roaring silently deep in the black mist.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 by

The low wall is mottled and covered by vines. Shrubs have broken through the ground and emerged from the broken wall, pushing green bricks all over the ground.

It is better to say it is a small town than a city.

 In the team, except him and Luofu.

A long procession walked through the mist-shrouded forest in silence, with only the rustle of horse hooves on the thick fallen leaves.

I don't know why, but Chen Yulou always feels indescribably familiar.

"tower?!"

 The first thing that comes into view is the ruins of ruins.

 Others don't know, but Chen Yulou knows it very well.

 Saw it was him.

 Chen Yulou exhaled.

"Owner…"

Yuan Hongcai secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Even the Partridge Whistle can't say that it can suppress it steadily.

However, due to the erosion of the years, the ancient town has long been abandoned, without any popularity, and most of the houses have collapsed. Only...a white stone tower with a different style still stands alone.

 It's less than two miles away.

 Looking at the white tower from a distance.

 Not long.

  But the scale is too small.

 From a distance, Chen Yulou saw Yuan Hong's figure.

In southern Yunnan, it has been a place that has been turned out since ancient times.

 As if I've seen it somewhere.

Even not as good as the Nanjian City they visited during the day.

 See this situation.

Gently turning the horse's back, the dragon horse sneezed beneath him and immediately chased Kunlun ahead.

Chen Yulou nodded, without saying anything more. He looked up and saw the aura floating in his night eyes.

 It looks like it is indeed an ancient city.

 Once the horse's belly is clamped, the dragon colt stops.

 Now, to be able to make him so frightened, it seems that the thing is really quite powerful.

From the few words Kunlun said, even he couldn't figure out what it was for the time being.

At this moment, it was squatting on the horse, as if it had encountered some great terror. Its whole body was as tight as a big bow. Just looking at its back, you can feel its fear and uneasiness.

 Yin energy is deep and evil energy spreads across the surface.

 But for a while, I couldn't remember it.

 “Brother Chen?”

The people from Partridge Post also rushed over early.

However, they do not have night eyes. Now that the golden crow is falling and the night is shrouded, they can barely see a few meters away with the help of the wind lantern in their hands.

That area is densely forested.

With his eyesight, he could only vaguely see the shadows of trees.

 “What was found?”

Hearing his question, Hua Ling, Miss Hong and others also looked over curiously.

 “It's a deserted ancient town.”

 “Ancient town?”

 Hear this unexpected answer.

 The group of people could not help but look thoughtful.

 “Is it recorded on the map?”

Partridge Whistle was still a seasoned person and he got to the key point right away.

 But Chen Yulou shook his head.

“According to the map mark, this is the boundary of Longtan Mountain. It is true that there is an earthen village, but it is very clear that there are only a few households, which is obviously not worthy of the ancient town.”

 Hear the words.

The hearts of the people at Partridge Whistle also sank.

Having been traveling all day, I was already exhausted both physically and mentally.

 Now, suddenly encountering such a strange situation, how can you feel at peace?

 Compared to them, Chen Yulou thought further.

Given Zuo's chieftain's control over the West Yunnan Road, it stands to reason that there should never be such a big mistake.

"Honggu, you, Kunlun, and Hualing will lead people outside to respond."

“Brother Dao, Yuan Hong and the old foreigner brothers, bring a few guys and follow me into the town to find out!”

Chen Yulou took a breath, put away his distracting thoughts, and gave instructions in a deep voice.

"good!"

 “Yes, from the shopkeeper.”

Hua Ling and Miss Hong led the Xiling bandits to camp on the spot.

They are all old people who have experienced the world for a long time.

 Know what to do in such unexpected situations.

Without Miss Hong's orders, a group of people quickly led the horses to an open area, and then lit a bonfire on the spot to drive away the wild beasts. Of course, it could also scare the evil spirits in the mountains.

 While speaking.

 Chen Yulou's mind was moved.

The angry chicken that had been sleeping in the bamboo cage raised its head and crowed, turning into a stream of colorful fire that cut through the night sky and landed directly on his left shoulder.

 As a phoenix species.

 It takes almost an instant.

It noticed something strange outside itself.

He held his head high, as if two blazing flames were igniting in his eyes, staring into the distance, with an astonishing ferocious aura all over his body.

 See it like this.

 Chen Yulou was not surprised.

He just comforted her gently, then raised his head and looked at the distance beyond the mountain.

 It just took a while.

The setting sun has completely disappeared, the clouds in the sky have been obscured by night, and the entire mountain is shrouded in darkness.

 There wasn't much delay.

 Chen Yulou led a group of people and quickly passed through the fog barriers and entered the ancient town.

 It's just that I just entered the town.

 A feeling of desolation, gloom and death came over me.

 It's obviously summer.

 This place is not like the one under Zhelong Snow Peak.

But the temperature instantly dropped by more than ten degrees, and the biting chill penetrated through the collar, giving people the feeling of stepping into an extremely cold place.

 “Why is it so cold?”

 “Something's wrong.”

He picked out a few companions who were accompanying him. They were all martial arts practitioners. Their blood was swaying all over their bodies, and their lives were burning brightly.

 But even so, it is a bit difficult to resist the Yin energy here.

Almost as high as the Sanshi Bridge in Xianwangxuan Palace that day.

However, there is a well under the Sanshi Bridge that leads directly to the earth veins.

It is the key to maintaining the balance of pure and turbid qi in the entire Feng Shui array.

 But here, Chen Yulou looked at it carefully, and it didn't look like the Feng Shui pattern of Tiansha Yin Vein.

 The more so, the more cautious you must be.

An ancient town that has no records and seems to have appeared out of thin air is inherently weird, not to mention that the evil spirit is so strong?

besides.

 In the majestic and endless evil, he faintly noticed a trace of evil spirit.

 “Everyone cheer up and march in groups.”

He reminded me in a low voice.

 Chen Yulou then walked lightly into the town.

I don't know how long this place has been abandoned. Only the ruins of the walls are left, but... I can still get a glimpse of the glory of the past.

only.

 Stayed in southern Yunnan for so long.

 Have seen the customs and scenery of all ethnic groups.

The architectural style here does not correspond to that of any ethnic group.

 The feeling it gave him was somewhat Zen-like.

 Six or seven wind lanterns.

 Break the heavy fog along the road.

 Not long after, the white stone tower in the town finally appeared in sight.

 Compared with the previous view, now standing under the tower and looking up, the shock is even more profound.

 It is more than ten meters high.

 Seven floors above and below, eight sides inside and outside.

 The base is engraved with Tantric scriptures.

On each side are several Tantric Bodhisattvas, Vajra Dharma images and eight heavenly dragons.

 At a rough glance, there are two to three hundred statues.

Standing alone among the ruins, like a vajra reaching into the sky, it is breathtaking. “This…Buddhist land?”

Partridge Whistle's pupils were constricted, with a look of disbelief on his face.

 Having traveled around the world for many years.

 Because he presented himself as a Taoist, he had almost never interacted with people in Zen Buddhism.

Furthermore, because of the preconceived news that Kunlun brought back, he always thought that this place was a ghost.

Unexpectedly, the Tantric Bodhisattva statue carved on the stone tower suddenly disrupted his thoughts.

 Even though he is well-informed.

 For a moment, I couldn't help but froze in place, feeling numb.

 “Shanjie City…Mandala?”

 It was completely different from their panic reaction.

At this moment, when I saw the Chen Yulou carved by all living beings on the stone tower, I felt a sudden enlightenment.

His eyes flickered and he murmured in a low voice.

"What?"

Although the Partridge Whistle stood closest, he didn't hear what he said clearly.

 couldn't help but frown and asked.

“Brother Dao, I know the origin of this place.”

 Chen Yulou shook his head and was not in a hurry to explain.

 But said with a serious face.

 “An ancient building with sutras and curtains, a place where Buddhism suppresses demons.”

He explained why he felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity when he looked at this place from a distance.

This stone pagoda is clearly the sutrshaped pagoda unique to Tantric Buddhism during the Dali era of Nanzhao.

 In his previous life, he had read it on the Internet.

There is a Sutra Building of the Dizang Temple in the Spring City Museum.

 The exquisite shape and perfect preservation are rare in the world.

In the introduction to the collection, it is only said that the sutra pillars are used for chanting sutras in Tantric Buddhism, but there is another rumor that has been circulating among the people. The ancient sutra pillars were built to suppress the dragons in Jinzhi River.

 That's why eight sea dragon kings are carved on the base of the entire sutra building.

 Use the real dragon to suppress the demonic dragon.

 If so.

 The appearance of this sutra building seems to be able to be explained clearly.

 Why is this?

 Longtan Mountain!

There is a secluded pool with blue waves at the foot of the mountain. The water has never dried up for thousands of years. Everyone says that the bottom of the pool leads directly to the Dragon Palace, and there are dragons living in it.

 In the previous life, such rumors were almost out of the public domain.

Chen Yulou would definitely dismiss it.

 But in the world of ghosts blowing out lanterns.

 He did not dare to question it at all.

The strange revival and the rampant demons are no lie.

 Coupled with the trace of evil spirit detected from the Yin energy before, this guess should be very close to ten.

 “Suppress the demon…”

Partridge Whistle's pupils shrank slightly.

This answer was once again beyond his expectation.

Although he rarely interacts with Zen people, he has also seen pagodas in temples, but generally speaking, they are mostly used to bury the relics or golden bodies of eminent monks.

 So, when we see traces of Tantric Buddhism.

 He also subconsciously thought so.

 “Longtan water demon.”

Chen Yulou nodded and softly uttered a few words again.

 For a moment, Partridge Whistle felt like a pair of invisible hands passed through his mind.

  Sort out the messy thoughts at once.

“Then...Brother Chen, do you want to turn on the demon slayer?”

With his words, the pupils of everyone including the old foreigner and Yuan Hong suddenly dilated.

 It allows the Tantric Buddhism to take action to suppress it forcefully.

 The monsters under the tower must not be simple.

 Besides, if they have been suppressed, why should they be released and beheaded?

 Isn't this unnecessary?

 The old foreigner opened his mouth and wanted to speak several times, but the senior brother was acting extremely abnormal today, as if he had never seen him before.

Partridge Whistle did notice it.

But based on his understanding of Chen Yulou, he could slay demons wherever he went.

 Such a good opportunity right now is something you will never miss easily.

 Sure enough.

Chen Yulou, who was still looking at the ancient building with his hands behind his hands, turned around, his eyes shining with light.

 “Brother Dao still understands me.”

“Snakes are lurking around, and dragons are frightened by dragons. As a dragon, each one is harder to see than the last.”

“Since we bumped into each other, it was just a matter of chance.”

Chen Yulou chuckled softly.

  As if talking about a trivial matter.

 But when Yuan Hong and others heard this, they shuddered.

 Slay the dragon?

 How arrogant this is!

From the scripture pillar here, we can see how much effort the Esoteric Buddhism spent in suppressing the water demon in Longtan.

 Seven floors and eight sides, with a total of 300 Buddha statues.

Now he wants to do the opposite and kill the dragon.

However, if these words were said by others, Yuan Hong and the old foreigners would never believe it.

But Chen Yulou speaks softly, but has an extremely domineering persuasiveness.

 “Luofu, go!”

 Looking at the angry chicken on his shoulder who was already eager to try.

Hand out your hand and point to the ancient building and sutra curtain.

 Luofu tore through the night in an instant and landed on the top of the prayer pillar.

The phoenix fire swept across his body, as if a great sun had risen in the night, reflecting the golden light on the prayer pillars.

The Jingzhu, which had been silent for countless years, seemed to have come alive.

 Golden light flows from top to bottom.

The esoteric scriptures engraved in it will also emerge one by one. As the scriptures circulate, the Buddha statues and Bodhisattvas sitting in all directions either have low eyebrows and submissive eyes, or have angry Vajra eyes.

 The invisible but mighty Buddhist breath blows through.

 In a flash.

The evil spirit in the ancient town is like the scorching sun and white snow, melting away in an instant and disappearing.

"this…"

 “God, what's going on?”

Looking at the changes on the sutra pillar, the faces of the several waiters had already turned pale. If the shopkeeper hadn't been there, they would have been forced to kneel down and worship by the fearful and powerful aura.

The same is true for Partridge Whistle and Lao Yangren.

 My face changed drastically and my whole body became tense.

His eyes were fixed on Jingzhu's every move.

They were just shocked, but as a demon, Yuan Hong was in great pain when he was enveloped by the Buddha's light.

 As if there is an invisible mountain suppressing me.

 “Brother Dao, please lend me your mirror umbrella!”

With almost no need for him to remind him, he also noticed Yuan Hong's strange partridge whistle. He had already taken down the umbrella behind him, opened it with a swipe, and raised it to cover Yuan Hong's head.

 Forty-nine mirrors instantly refract the Buddha's light back.

 The invisible force of suppression that was pressing down on Yuan Hong also disappeared in an instant.

It subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, but there was some unconcealable fear in its eyes as it looked at the prayer building.

 “Go to a distant place.”

 “Same for you guys.”

Chen Yulou did not expect that this scripture building that had been exposed to wind and sun for hundreds of years would still have such power.

His eyes swept over Yuan Hong and several waiters, and he whispered a reminder.

 The old foreigner holds the Miao knife in his hand and is ready to charge into the battle.

 But the senior brother seemed to have eyes on the back of his head, "You come over too."

"…yes."

 The old foreigner hesitated for a while, but finally agreed.

 Just took off the umbrella and handed it over.

 Wait until the group retreats to a distance.

 Chen Yulou then stepped forward and looked attentively along the scripture building.

 The stone tower is more than ten meters up and down.

 The base is nearly ten feet in size.

Although there are slight differences between Esoteric Buddhism and Han Buddhism, their expression on Buddha statues is not significant.

The carvings of the eight dragon kings are lifelike and powerful. Chen Yulou recognized the names of several dragon kings such as Nanda, Xiuji, and Anandabhava at a glance.

 Between the eight dragon kings, on the central pillar of the prayer building.

 Engraved with a dragon ball.

At this moment, the golden light flows down, reflecting it like a fire bead in the deep sea.

 The eight dragon kings chase each other after the dragon balls.

Seeing this, Chen Yulou understood immediately and glanced at the partridge whistle not far behind him. Then, he stretched out his hand and gently pressed the dragon ball.

 Click!

 A crisp voice sounded.

  It seemed as if something had been touched.

On the base of the ancient prayer curtain, the dragon beads were deeply sunk, and a stone door slowly emerged.

 “Sure enough!”

 Don't care about surprises.

Chen Yulou quickly lowered his head and glanced inside.

Under the scripture building, there is a deep and endless ancient well.

However, before he could see what was going on clearly, the next moment, an earth-shattering roar came from the well.

　　　following closely.

 There is also a majestic evil spirit!
