After inquiring about the address with Tu Li, Zhong Yuan said goodbye to his family and quickly disappeared. Zhong Yuan admitted that he was indeed intrigued by Tu Li's news. He had watched many horror movie stories and had never seen ghosts or monsters before. After all, Dan City was not far away from here. Zhong Yuan planned to take some time to broaden his horizons. Regardless of whether there was anything Zhong Yuan wanted to find there or not, just the three zombies mentioned by Tu Li would not make Zhong Yuan's trip in vain. However, before that, Zhong Yuan had to return to the mountain valley to place the Golden Eagle.
Although the Golden Eagle had just been charged with energy not long ago, Zhongyuan still took the trouble to replenish it to its full capacity. Zhongyuan believed that he didn't have to worry about the Golden Eagle running out of energy for at least a week. He took the Golden Eagle out of the valley and instructed it to operate in the no man's land. No matter what the situation was in Danshi, Zhongyuan believed that he would be back in less than a week, so he felt very relieved.
When the golden eagle flew into the sky, Zhongyuan put on a invisibility mask and flew up to Danshi. This was the first time Zhongyuan had traveled long distances during the day.
In order to be on the safe side, Zhong Yuan was rushing in the sky while recalling all the means he could use now. Although Zhong Yuan had already planned to just go and see the excitement, God knew if there would be trouble coming to him later. Zhong Yuan was not sure about this kind of thing in his heart.
The distance from Shennongjia to Danshi is not very far, at least that's what Zhongyuan, who is flying in the sky, thinks. Even if Zhongyuan was absentmindedly rushing, he only took less than two hours to reach the territory of Danshi. Zhongyuan is visiting Danshi for the first time and probably only knows about Maoshan in Danshi.
Even though he had a detailed map of Dan City in his mind, it took Zhong Yuan a lot of time to find the small mountain village mentioned by Tu Li. He was able to confirm it so quickly thanks to the road signs and police that blocked the road.
Many tents have been set up outside the cordon, and Zhong Yuan knew that these tents must have been occupied by the staff. However, there are not many people in the tents now, so it seems that they have entered the small village.
With this thought in mind, Zhongyuan gently released a trace of Buddhist power on his body and quietly drifted towards the small village. He sailed cautiously on a thousand year old ship. Although Tu Li said it was okay to enter the small village during the day, Zhongyuan still didn't feel at ease and added a layer of insurance to himself.
The small village is surprisingly quiet now, and all the things that can be taken away have been taken by the villagers to temporary resettlement sites. Apart from those who come to conduct research, there is nothing left in the small village now. Thinking about these researchers, Zhong Yuan couldn't help but admire them. He dared to take risks and come in before he could figure out the cause.
This small mountain village is not big, and Zhongyuan easily found more than a dozen researchers busy in the stone chamber. The stone chamber is not very large, and although Zhongyuan is invisible, he dare not go down rashly. If he accidentally touches someone, it would be strange not to be scared in this environment.
Not far from the entrance of the cave, Zhongyuan found a clean stone and sat on it. Then he slowly released his psychic power, intending to see what was going on. As soon as his psychic power entered the stone chamber, Zhongyuan couldn't help but shiver. The entire chamber gave Zhongyuan a very chilly feeling.
On the other end of the stone chamber, there was another chamber. Zhong Yuan knew that it must be the secret chamber discovered later. Zhong Yuan was not in a hurry and planned to figure out the outer chamber first.
At first, I heard from Tu Li that this stone chamber was dug out of a single stone. Zhong Yuan still didn't believe it and thought it was because the stones were tightly sealed together and hadn't been discovered. However, when Zhong Yuan personally examined it with his psychic powers, he confirmed that this stone chamber was indeed dug out of a single stone. He just didn't know if the stone was originally here or if it had been moved by someone else. If it were the latter, it would have been a bit terrifying. But just thinking about the images he saw earlier, where someone used a small hill as a brick to play, he felt relieved. It wasn't because others were too scary, but because he didn't have any knowledge.
There was actually a altar placed in the stone chamber, but what was different from what Tu Li said was that everything he said was properly placed on that altar. It seems that until the cause of those people's illnesses is determined, no one dares to move these things out temporarily, and these things should have been put back by these researchers based on the descriptions of the villagers.
As Zhongyuan's psychic power approached the small cauldron worshipped, he could feel the cold and gloomy aura more and more. He swept everything around the cauldron, although there was also that cold feeling, it was negligible compared to the small cauldron.
After adapting to this feeling for a while, Zhong Yuan finally stretched his psychic power towards the small cauldron. A cauldron lid tightly covered it, and Zhong Yuan quietly tried to open it with psychic power, but it didn't move at all. He quietly added some strength, but there was still no response. After all, Zhong Yuan had used at least a hundred or ten pounds of force just now, but he couldn't open it with brute force. Zhong Yuan had to think of other ways. He didn't even think about whether he could open the lid so easily?
It doesn't matter if Zhongyuan can't open the lid, as it's not difficult to see what's inside. He tightened his clothes and slowly probed his thoughts into the cauldron. There was a cold feeling outside the cauldron, and Zhongyuan had no idea what would happen inside. Zhongyuan was already prepared, and when the situation was wrong, he immediately withdrew his psychic power.
To Zhongyuan's surprise, as soon as his psychic power penetrated a little, he encountered an energy barrier. Fortunately, this thing seemed to have little effect on psychic power. Zhongyuan's psychic power lightly penetrated through the barrier and arrived inside the small cauldron. Zhongyuan, who was ready to retreat, was a little surprised. The small cauldron not only did not feel a bit cold, but also very warm. The small cauldron was filled with black mist, and three golden beads lay quietly in the center of the cauldron, each the size of a glass bead, similar to the spiritual power crystal in Zhongyuan's mind. The spiritual power crystal? Thinking of this word, Zhong Yuan felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He was so shocked that he immediately withdrew his psychic powers, almost unable to maintain the invisibility mask covering his body. When he saw the black mist outside, Zhong Yuan already had some thoughts, but the three beads were a bit scary and made Zhong Yuan unable to believe it.
Zhong Yuan learned from bamboo slips that in the era when cultivation was prevalent, humans had a mortal grudge against those demons and monsters. Whenever he heard of the appearance of evil spirits and spirits, many practitioners rushed to eliminate them. One reason was to prevent those things from causing harm again, and the other was to purify the original spiritual power left behind by these evil spirits and spirits. If Zhong Yuan guessed correctly, the stone chamber should be a place for cultivators to live. However, Zhong Yuan couldn't imagine how many evil spirits and spirits he needed to cultivate in order to have three crystals. Zhong Yuan seemed to have forgotten that he didn't need many, as long as there were a few evil spirits like him who were as fierce as he was. Soul, in other words, is formed by the conscious body under certain specific conditions, and the spiritual power that can become a fierce ghost or soul is not much different.
The spiritual power essence refined is of great help to all cultivators, whether it is used to restore their own spiritual power consumption or absorb it, it is much better than slowly cultivating oneself. If those three beads are really spiritual power crystals, when Zhongyuan absorbs them, his spiritual power can at least be multiplied several times. So it's no wonder Zhongyuan is so excited.
It's just that Zhongyuan doesn't quite understand. Normally, if that small cauldron was really a tool for refining ghosts, the black Yin energy inside should have been expelled and dissipated long ago. However, Zhongyuan just saw the rich Yin energy inside. I don't have a clue yet, and Zhong Yuan is not sure if the things inside are what he imagined.
Stabilized the psychic power of Zhongyuan and once again probed into the stone chamber.
