The Great Enlightenment

Chapter 17 The Village That Does Not Exist
The middle-aged man looked very respectful, and after saluting to several people respectively, he said: "Daoist withered wood, Taoist Yuanmu, Mr. Xu, and this Taoist priest from the ancient city of Taichu, both of you, Shangzhen, must take care of you." Solve the matter of Maocao Village thoroughly, otherwise the villagers of Huangcao Village will have trouble sleeping and eating."

Taoist Yuanmu, who was at the beginning of the Nascent Realm, waved his hand, and said impatiently: "Village Chief, don't worry. According to my opinion, this matter is at most caused by a ghost at the Upper Nascent Realm, and my senior brother The two of them shot, but it was easy to catch."

Ji Yuenian's eyes moved slightly, as if he suddenly thought of something, but he didn't say anything, but stepped out of the house one step at a time, staring at the peaceful and quiet deserted grass village.

Cooking smoke curls up, Qiushui people.

"Xiao Daochang," the sweet voice came to my ears, and the braided girl stood a few feet in front of her, looking at Ji Yuenian anxiously, "Leave quickly, the matter of our thatched village It's not something you can meddle in."

Ji Yuenian frowned slightly, looking at the braided girl quietly, feeling a little bad in his heart.

What's wrong?

Suddenly, a thunder flashed across my mind!
She said "our thatched village"!
This is not a barren grass village at all, but a thatched grass village where hundreds of people in the village have all died!
In other words, there is no Weak Grass Village from the beginning to the end!

"Why is the Taoist standing here? Hurry up and rest in the house." The voice of the village head rang in my ears.

Ji Yuenian turned his head and saw the village head coming out of the hall and walking towards him.

"Hurry up!? As long as you leave the thatched grass village, you can get rid of this terrible curse!" The voice of the braided girl became more and more anxious.

Strangely, the village head seemed to be completely unaware of the existence of the braided girl, and turned a blind eye to her.

Ji Yuenian thought for a moment, without saying a word, turned around and walked towards the village layman.

The braided girl accompanied him with a worried expression on her face.

"Daoist! Daoist, please stay! Stay!"

The village chief's voice gradually distorted in his ears, getting smaller and smaller.

"Go!" The braided girl stretched out her slender hand, grabbed Ji Yuenian's wrist, and pulled him to run out of the village.

Ji Yuenian still didn't say a word, letting the girl lead him to run faster and faster.

Finally arrived at the entrance of the village.

The braided girl let go of her hand and said anxiously: "Xiao Daoist, hurry up and go out, it will be too late!"

Ji Yuenian turned his head, looked at the deserted grass village behind him, and nodded, "Okay."

But his footsteps never moved a bit.

"Prince Xiaodao, let's go! Let's go!"

The braided girl seemed very anxious, urging Ji Yuenian from time to time.

"Go? Where are you going?" Ji Yuenian looked at the girl's pretty face, and smiled lightly, "With all due respect, the girl's disguise is extremely clumsy."

The girl was taken aback for a moment, and asked in confusion, "What is the little Daoist talking about?"

Ji Yuenian shook his head slightly, flicked his sleeve robe, and a golden profound force flowed out, breaking all the obstacles in front of him.

The Weak Grass Village behind him has regained its faint popularity and noise, while one step away in front of him is the truly dead Thatched Thatched Village!
This is the main road on the west side of Weak Cao Village. After the accident in thatched grass village, no one dared to come here again. Just now, as long as Ji Yuenian took one more step, he would step into this extremely weird thatched grass village!
"How can you see through?" The girl's face gradually calmed down.

"It's very simple. Although I haven't directly seen through the maze, your flaws are too obvious." Ji Yuenian pointed to the thin and coarse clothes worn by the girl with braided braids. It's extremely cold, and your commoner clothes alone can't keep out the cold, but your hands are extremely warm."

The girl looked at Ji Yuenian quietly without saying a word.

"Also," Ji Yuenian looked at the thatched grass village, which was completely filled with strange aura, "I am now [-]% sure that the matter in the thatched grass village should be related to the ghosts that have been in the heavy rain for the past two days. The shape is very special, but it has something that other ghosts can't match."

"Let's hear it." The braided girl said with a blank expression on her face.

Ji Yuenian nodded, and said, "I just saw a wooden statue of a mountain god at the village chief's house. During this journey, I have vaguely seen the same mountain god through the occasional doors of other people's houses. God statues, this is the key to the transformation of ghosts."

The girl said softly: "Every mountain god is a god of heaven and earth who protects one side, so what does it have to do with ghosts?"

"Although this statement is true," Ji Yuenian swung the sleeves of Zhanqing's Taoist robe, "but the mountain gods that these two villages have worshiped for generations don't exist at all!"

"Even the righteous god of heaven and earth with the lowest rank is an imperial deity who protects thousands of miles of land, just like the god of land of Taichu enshrined in the ancient city of Taichu."

"This mountain is just one of the outermost mountains of the Qingluan Mountain Range. It is extremely small. How could there be a mountain god enshrining it here? If there is really a mountain god protecting it, it is impossible for this place to be so deserted. There are only two A small village that seems to be isolated from the rest of the world."

"Their so-called mountain gods are nothing but imaginations."

The girl looked at Ji Yuenian strangely, and said, "The little Daoist is indeed extremely intelligent, but even if the mountain god does not exist, what does it have to do with ghosts?"

Ji Yuenian stepped out, only a foot away from the girl, looked down at her and said, "Although the mountain god does not exist, the statue of the mountain god has absorbed the villagers' wish power for an unknown number of years, but it has been built from the beginning. In the end, no intelligence was born."

"During the torrential rain in the past two days, many body ghosts appeared. It should be that a body ghost came to Maocao Village and noticed the abnormality of the mountain god statue, so it divided into hundreds of mountain god statues in the village. The power of vows accumulated in the heart is transformed, and it will no longer be trapped by celestial phenomena, completely get rid of the body of ghosts, and become a real ghost that can practice."

"Girl, am I right?"

The girl didn't say a word, just looked at Ji Yuenian and fell silent.

Ji Yuenian smiled, and continued: "It's a pity that after you transformed into a ghost, although you shed your body as a ghost, you also lost all the strange abilities of being a ghost, and became a pitiful ghost that is obliterated by everyone. Ghosts can only lead me here by relying on obstacles."

"Even if you guessed it all, so what?" A strong ghostly aura emanated from the braided girl, and a woman's figure was condensed in the void, "It's a pity that you didn't guess my cultivation level, and you will die !"

The violent ghost power swept out, and this ghost was actually a terrifying cultivation level of Guizhen Shangjing!
At the same time, after the braided girl lost her ghost body, her eyes became lifeless, gradually turning into a pile of scattered bones under the pervasive ghostly aura.
