The black dragon was still the same black dragon, but this time it was full of resentment. It looked at the two old men as if it wanted to swallow them.
But later it didn't do that, instead it crushed them into meat paste.
Wei Mian felt the change in the aura of the black dragon and couldn't help but frown. At this moment, its whole body was full of evil spirit. If it didn't have a physical body, one would probably think it had turned into a Yin dragon.
What exactly happened here? The black dragon's aura was quite clean before, and if it wanted to cultivate into a dragon, it would generally not involve itself with human life, otherwise the karma it carries would cause its thousand years of cultivation to fail.
After killing two old men in succession, the black dragon roared to the sky, the voice full of indignation and resentment, as well as murderous intent.
The people in the illusion were inevitably affected by the black dragon's emotions at this time, and the expressions on their faces were either melancholy or resentful. Seeing this, Wei Mian immediately used his skills, and the pure spiritual energy spread out. With a slight shake, he instantly dispelled the surrounding negative energy.
The evil spirit disappeared, the illusion dissipated, and everyone in the ancestral hall woke up.
However, when the judges came to their senses, the first thing they thought about was not the shocking scene they had just seen. They looked at Wei Mian with complicated eyes.
With this much skill, you're still participating in the competition? What's going on? A max-level expert returns to the novice village? What's his habit?
Wei Mian coughed lightly and pretended not to notice anything.
"just--"
The old man with the goatee asked uncertainly, "How could the black dragon kill people?"
Chu Zheng also nodded, obviously agreeing with the old man with the goat beard's idea and having the same confusion in his heart.
Obviously, Wei Mian was not the only one who noticed this, but everyone knew that the black dragon originally had the possibility of transforming into a dragon, but after killing people, it was basically gone.
Chu Zheng had a serious face. He didn't like to laugh, and a stern face made him even more scary, so the villagers who saw his expression trembled in their hearts.
"What on earth did those two people who died in your village do?! That black dragon had been cultivating for thousands of years and was extremely intelligent. If it wanted to become a dragon, it would definitely not kill anyone. What on earth did those two people do?"
Chu Zheng's voice was extremely harsh, coupled with his cold eyes, and everyone's heart trembled.
"No, I don't know. Usually, only Old Man Cui and Old Man Wang have a good relationship. They often go into the mountains together. We, we really don't know."
The old man felt as if he had just seen the two dead people, and also seemed to have seen a flying snake with claws... a snake?
He was so frightened that he was completely speechless, so it was the village chief who spoke now.
Chu Zheng stared at him for a long time, and only let him go after he was sure that the village chief really knew nothing.
Seeing this, the village chief secretly breathed a sigh of relief. This time it was basically certain that it was the black dragon that killed the two villagers.
But they have lived their entire lives and have never seen anything like this. Shouldn't this only exist in legends? It's really scary!
Several judges gathered together to discuss in a low voice, and Wei Mian overheard.
The tall and thin judge was called Lu Yingcai, and he had a pair of very big eyes. He talked for a long time, but in the final analysis, he just didn't want to care.
Lu Yingcai felt that since the black dragon killed those two people, they must have done something to offend it, and the matter was very serious, perhaps related to the strong yin energy in the black dragon.
Moreover, the Black Dragon had already killed someone, which was equivalent to revenge, and the two sides were even.
Now the people on the island worship the Black Dragon in the ancestral hall, which can make up for some of the sins of the two old men and maintain a delicate balance in the relationship between the villagers and the Black Dragon. There is no need for them to take the initiative to break it.
As for the fact that the crops grown on the land have decreased in yield and tasted unpalatable, it is most likely because the dragon veins have been destroyed and the feng shui here has deteriorated.
What Lu Yingcai said made sense. Wei Mian watched coldly and felt that there were more than one person who had the same idea as him, but the other party just didn't have the courage to bring it up first.
After discussing it for a while, they got no results and since the black dragon was not there, they simply went back to the village.
By this time it was almost dark, and the Feng Shui masters who had been pointing acupuncture points on the mountain had all come down and handed in their positioning bracelets. Naturally, the judges would conduct on-site surveys and give scores based on the locations and photos on the bracelets.
When it was Wei Mian's turn, the old man with the goat beard thought that she had been busy with the dragon vein today. It didn't make any sense for her to participate in this competition which was completely child's play. She definitely had no time to choose a lucky cave. When he was about to pass by her and accept someone, Wei Mian stopped him.
"This is mine."
She put the bracelet on the number plate and handed it over.
The old man with a goatee glanced at Wei Mian, then took the bracelet and moved on to the next person without saying anything.
Wei Mian, who was left standing, narrowed his eyes. What was that look in his eyes just now? Why did it seem like he was holding a grudge?
The old man with the goat beard is named Ning Lecheng, and he is the elder of the Tianxing Sect in Gangcheng. Thinking about the strength displayed by Wei Mian during the day, how could he not feel resentful?
He really wanted to say, "With your strength, why do you still need to fight? Are you afraid that others won't lose thoroughly enough?"
During the meal, Zheng Hao and Liang Haoran hurried over. They didn't say anything, but just stared at Wei Mian.
That look.
He said nothing, yet it seemed as if he had said everything. Wei Mian understood it anyway.
She helplessly picked up a piece of egg and stuffed it into her mouth. "If you have anything to say, just say it. Don't make eyes at me. Do you want to eat it or not? If not, go away."
Liang Haoran heard this and silently picked up his chopsticks. Zheng Hao was still shameless, "Uncle Master, just tell me~"
Wei Mian ignored him and looked at Liang Haoran, "Did you find anything today?"
Liang Haoran thought about it.
"There aren't any particularly good auspicious caves on this mountain, so I picked a decent one and submitted it. The assessment should be fine. However, I observed the vegetation growth on the three hills and discovered something strange."
Then he recounted what he had discovered on the mountain today. It was similar to what Wei Mian had seen, and he also discovered it from the growth of the trees.
Moreover, in one of the two hills that Liang Haoran visited today, the trees growing in the valley were not only malnourished, but many of them had even died.
"And those dead trees seem to be stained with a lot of yin energy?"
He said this with some hesitation, because he was not outstanding in this area, but he vaguely felt that the yin energy was a little different.
When trees are about to die, they will also produce Yin energy, but this Yin energy is often very faint. However, the trees in the valley that Liang Haoran saw today made him feel that the Yin energy was different from the Yin energy of naturally dead trees. They were obviously evil.
It was as if something carrying a large amount of Yin energy appeared nearby and used some kind of martial arts to instantly absorb the vitality of the trees, and then some of the Yin energy inevitably contaminated the trees.
Is it a bit like energy exchange?
