Chapter 27 Jade Dragon Temple
Watching Bai Zhen go away, Di Shitian speeds up his pace towards Yulong Temple. Di Shitian walks for several days and passes by several villages. Whenever he arrives in a village, he will learn about some basic situations from the villagers or ask them for books. In the end, the books are not found, and he knows a lot of information. Several villagers who have traveled far away said that only one Yulong Temple is more lively within a few hundred miles, and other villages have become sparsely populated due to wars. In some villages, no one is left except women.
Come on. Di Shitian felt that there was strangeness everywhere in this world. The bloody sun was hanging high above the sky. The day and night were the same, but there was still an alternation between day and night. From time to time during the day, a yellow demon wind blew, and the whole sky became extremely dark, just like at night. If you could not dodge in time and be blown by the yellow wind, your whole soul would be extremely uncomfortable, but the villagers in this world had no effect. There was black soil everywhere on the earth.
This kind of soil-planted crop is very lush, so most of the world is covered with forests and grasslands. Only places with villages can there be large-scale reclamation places, and crops will be planted inside. The monsters here are not of very high level. Even ferocious monsters can be captured as long as everyone cooperates properly or sets traps in advance. These villages are located on a mountain, which is called Luolong Mountain. According to legend, this place was originally an endless plain, but later it was said that it was a landslide.
One day, a loud noise in the sky, a giant dragon landed on the plain, and turned into a mountain range that stretched for tens of thousands of miles. The village where Di Shitian lived before was at the foot of Luolong Mountain. At the top of Luolong Mountain, the Yulong Temple, which Bai Zhen asked him to go to the Yulong Temple before. When Di Shitian woke up, Qin Tian's soul no longer existed, and he happened to be his host. The cause of all this was the Yulong Temple, and Di Shitian could only uncover the doubts in his heart from here.
Di Shitian traveled a long journey, and during this period he passed by dozens of villages, many of them never left the village where they lived. The men who went out to fight never came back since they left, and fewer men in the village were fewer and fewer men. Di Shitian also passed through several forests and grasslands, and there were fierce monsters in the forest. However, in the end, they were all used by Di Shitian to practice their hands and became food in their stomachs. Only a few monsters were exchanged for money and food. Traveling through these forests and grasslands was not a smooth journey. The only time I encountered danger was to meet a group of wind wolf on the grassland.
The monsters appeared in groups, and there was a leader of the wolf pack. They divided the labor and cooperated with the targets, showing some intelligence. The wolf stood at a high place from a distance, staring at Di Shitian's every move, and commanded the wolf pack's actions from afar. Di Shitian was no longer as panicked as before when he entered and left the immortal cultivation world. While moving quickly among the wolf pack, he looked for an opportunity to attack. Finally, Di Shitian broke through to a place that was only a hundred steps away from the wolf. With a shocking sting, the wolf pack drooped and his body fell to the ground. After the wolf died, the wolf pack fled in all directions.
After half a year, Di Shitian could already see the figure of Yulong Temple from afar. From a distance, the mountain behind Yulong Temple was very similar to a dragon head sleeping with its head down. In front of the mountain were a large number of buildings, which must be where Yulong Temple was located.
The seemingly close Yulong Temple, Di Shitian walked for a long time before he arrived. When he arrived, he realized that Yulong Temple was very different from what he imagined. It did not have the aura of immortal cultivation in Yuanding Sect at all. Instead, it looked like a good human city. Under the high walls, the gate was closed, leaving only three side doors that accommodate one person to pass through. There were soldiers in armor at the door to check and interrogate. There were long queues under the three door holes, including villagers, scholars and soldiers. These people lined up and down at the city gate. The soldiers at the city gate were holding a gray box in their hands, and kept firing up and down at everyone passing by. After careful inspection, they were allowed to leave.
"Brother, what is this box used for?" Di Shitian asked a young man standing in front of him in a low voice. The young man turned around and looked up and down Queen Di Shitian and continued, "This is your first time in Yulong Temple, right?"
"It's indeed the first time I've been out. After staying in the village for a long time, I want to come out to see the outside world." Di Shitian replied truthfully without hiding it.
"No wonder you don't know, this gray box is to check whether the people entering the city have souls."
"Ah? Can you live without a soul?"
"When I first came to Yulong Temple, it was the same as what you think now. You don't know that there are many puppets in this world that we can't explain. Those who fight with us all year round are puppets without souls. They have tool puppets made of various materials, and corpse puppets refined by our human race after our death. These puppets have no souls. When fighting with us, they are fearless and have no pain at all. Our human race has suffered a lot. In order to protect the safety of their relatives, many of our relatives and soldiers voluntarily took up weapons to fight them. Yulong Temple has trained many warriors for the border over the years, allowing those enemies who control the puppet to suffer all their hardships.
, those enemies failed to continue to advance, they made great contributions. Naturally, they also became thorns in the eyes of the enemy, and sent their puppets to lurk into the Jade Dragon Temple many times to look for opportunities to destroy. Later, the immortal master of the Jade Dragon Temple invented this spiritual weapon to test the souls of those who entered the city. If the souls were different, this spiritual weapon would sound an alarm." Di Shitian couldn't help but feel nervous after hearing this. His soul was Qin Tian's, and what he knew had became an enemy, wouldn't he become the enemy they mentioned? Di Shitian felt that there must be some misunderstandings in this, so he should go to the city first and make plans after he understood it clearly.
The forward team quickly lined up in front of Di Shitian. When the gray box shone on him, a "drip" sound was made. With a "huh", several well-trained soldiers at the door immediately surrounded him in the middle and were ready to attack at any time. Di Shitian was shocked and said intimidatingly that he was not his soul, but his soul was indeed leaking. Fortunately, the soldiers just surrounded him in the center and did not have the next move. The Shouhunshunshuns were running at high speed in the divine consciousness, and a black small sword was suspended at the center of his eyebrows. As long as there was a slight situation, the Shouhunshunshuns would attack. After the crowds lined up around him found the situation in front, they were all like birds and beasts.
I had been away from a distance and watched the door, and a clear space suddenly appeared at the door. The originally bustling crowd suddenly became quiet. Everyone held their breath and looked at the city gate nervously. After the soldiers at the door surrounded Di Shitian in the middle, they were full of doubts when they saw Di Shitian not moving. The first time I saw such a calm enemy, I couldn't help but feel a little scared in my heart. Only two kinds of people in the world can remain calm. One is not afraid of death and completely put their own life and death aside. In this case, the puppets will choose to self-destruct, and everyone around them will suffer. The other is that people with strength have excellent self-advocacy and mastery. No matter how great the danger is, they can be safe.
"Who breaks into my Yulong Temple?" A man with an officer's appearance emerged from the side door and headed straight for Di Shitian. The person who came was holding two round big iron hammers as weapons. Before he could get in front of him, the two hands holding the hammer were still trembling. The person who came held the panic and injected the spiritual energy into the hammer, a flash of inspiration on the hammer, and a spiritual light came straight towards Di Shitian.
"June, I am just an ordinary villager, have you made a mistake?" Di Shitian stood there, not overwhelmed by the momentum of the visitor at all. Instead, the officer panicked and almost fell to the ground in his hand.
"I have never missed the test box. Don't argue, just surrender quickly. I can still plead with the spectator and let you have a way out." The officer shouted loudly.
"June, have you ever seen a puppet that you would chat with?" Di Shitian was not proficient in puppets, and his basic knowledge was told by Shibuki. If he were really a puppet, he would have lost his ability to speak long ago.
"It seems that what I said is right." The officer was stunned. He was nervous just now and actually forgot the most basic characteristics of the puppet. He then raised his hand to wave a soldier next to him, whispered a few words in his ear, and then put away the weapon in his hand.
The soldier who had just walked away took several more puppet test boxes and illuminated them at Di Shitian. This time, the corpse puppet box did not ring again.
"A false alarm, everyone has dispersed, they have dispersed, what should I do?" The officer waved his hand, and the crowd who was still watching just now returned to the order of queueing. The villager who explained to Di Shitian just now kept stroking his heart not far away and secretly called out luck. If he confirmed the identity of Di Shitian's spy, he would have to investigate, and he might even be charged with accusation of a party. Di Shitian was puzzled, and there was a problem just now, but there was no problem with another examination. Di Shitian would never believe that there was something wrong with the test box just now. Di Shitian successfully passed the city gate, but it was inevitable that he would have to check it at the door. Finally, when he was seriously injured when he participated in the Yulong Temple to take in disciples, the officer seemed to remember that the person in front of him was somewhat similar to the person before, so he stopped pursuing it and let Di Shitian enter the city gate.
A black shadow not far from the city gate watched Di Shitian enter the city, and disappeared into the streets and alleys.
Di Shitian entered the city and looked around. Last time he came in as Qin Tian, he had no impression of him. This was the first time he came here, and everything looked very strange.
"Senior brother, do you need a guide?" a thin and black boy asked timidly. "It's only two cents, one cent is fine." The boy said incoherently. After saying that, he stuck out his tongue and looked at Di Shitian shyly with his head down.
"As long as I am satisfied, the price is not a problem." Di Shitian walked along the way, killing many wild beasts in the forests and grasslands, and exchanged a lot of money and food for this world in the villages they passed by. If he had a space ring on his body, he could exchange it for more money and food, and he could be a little rich man in this world. If he knew that the monster was valuable, he would not have gone so hurry. At least he would give Bai Zhen some basic living guarantee before leaving. Thinking of this, Di Shitian was very upset.
