Chapter 114: Going to the Wrong Set
Yuxia Mountain is not well-known in Hai City and can even be called a barren mountain.
Logically, a deserted place with mountains and water should have some small animals living there. However, the vegetation in these mountains was sparse, and many areas were covered with gray rocky terrain, giving it a very desolate look. Not to mention small animals, even mice were hard to find.
Some locals mentioned that Yuxia Mountain was originally named Xiashan, which sounds like "xia" (blind), which is unlucky, so it was later renamed.
There is also a rumor that 30 years ago, someone went hiking in the mountains and was fine when they entered, but disappeared for several days. So relatives and friends immediately decided to go into the mountains to look for them, but they disappeared together.
I thought it was another unsolved missing case, but half a month later, they figured it out themselves.
It’s really “touching”.
Those who were healthy and even strong before entering the mountain were all blind. However, when leaving Yuxia Mountain, they formed a neat line, stretched their hands forward, and groped their way out of the mountain.
After they completely left the area of Yuxia Mountain, they died without anyone coming forward to ask them.
Later, it was said that the higher-ups had asked an expert to look at the feng shui. The expert did nothing but frown and shake his head, and kept sighing. Finally, he advised that Xiashan be renamed to include the character "玉" (jade), which would at least suppress the evil spirits.
Qin Qinsen raised his eyebrows when he heard this. "It's more than that. Jade can suppress evil, but it's real jade. It can't be suppressed by simply changing its name."
"That's right."
Jiang Wei led Qin Qinsen towards the mountain. "Back then, Master She and the Ma and Zhang families set up a formation in Yuxia Mountain, using a golden tripod and jade artifact as the center of the formation. It suppressed evil spirits for twenty years."
"So you just left it alone?"
Jiang Wei was caught off guard by Qin Qinsen's question. His expression was a little embarrassed, and he agreed.
"Five years ago, the Linhai Group purchased plot YX-0117 for development. At the time, they clearly stated that no construction work was allowed until further notice. However, Shao Jizhong bribed grassroots workers to secretly carry out construction and even concealed the accident. If it weren't for a recent report from a migrant worker, we would have almost forgotten about the land in Yuxia Mountain."
The man who spoke, standing across the cordon, looked very old, with white hair, white beard, and white eyebrows. One eye was black, the other white, and he was as thin as a stick.
"Master She." Jiang Wei took Qin Qinsen across the cordon and met up with the old man.
The old man chuckled, "She Yizhi, I guess you must be Qin Qinsen. Someone asked me to say hello to you."
Qin Qinsen didn't even bother to ask, who else could have caused this mess except his respected father.
"If Qin Pan hadn't removed the curse for me, I wouldn't have been able to detect even if Yuxia Mountain exploded in two."
Hearing this, Qin Qinsen walked up to She Yizhi's side. Before he could move, he felt a strong wind and was slapped hard on the back of his head.
"What are you looking at? It's just the curse they cast back then. If everyone forgets about Yuxia Mountain, nothing will happen. However, this place naturally gathers Yin, and there are evil spirits out there trying to steal money and kill people, so it's only a matter of time before something bad happens. Furthermore, the Yin Messenger who allowed the Yin to grow has been punished, so I'll leave this matter to you. Do your best, and you'll be able to offset the fifty jars of fine wine from the Grandmaster."
The last sentence was spoken in a very low voice, and only Qin Qinsen could hear it.
She Yizhi's shoulders trembled, and he took a half step back. "Qin Pan specifically left a message for me to bring to you, saying that after you listen to it, you will cooperate with Captain Jiang's actions."
How could he not listen? If he didn't work anymore, he would have to pay off the drinking debts his father owed in his next life.
but……
"Qin Pan?" Qin Qinsen's tone was strange. Is Dad doing so well? In the future, when he goes out, can he claim that he has someone under him?
She Yizhi smiled and said nothing more, only asking Jiang Wei to lead the team members forward.
"Time is running out, so we'll split into two groups. Master She will lead one team up the mountain from the east, and Master Qin and I will lead the other team westward."
Jiang Wei handed over the intercom. "Master She just calculated that the formation we set up on Yuxia Mountain twenty years ago has lost its effectiveness. Linhai Group has sacrificed countless lives to start construction and attract wealth. It just so happens that the moon is in a different phase tonight, and in the second half of the night..."
"A moonless night." Qin Qinsen looked up. The night sky was clear, without clouds or stars or moon. It was so clean that people thought that the spell he had cast using the moonlight had never happened.
"The yin energy is getting thicker and thicker. The formation should have lost its effect long ago. Otherwise, those people from Linhai Group wouldn't have suddenly bought the land and even started construction. What's going on in Yuxia Mountain?" Qin Qinsen asked as he walked in.
"Yuxia Mountain, formerly known as Xia Mountain, has been the dividing point between the Yin and Yang realms of Hai City since ancient times. Over time, no fewer than a hundred recorded large-scale wars have broken out centered around Xia Mountain."
Speaking of this, Jiang Wei's tone was heavy.
Blood, evil, and resentment converged within Yuxia Mountain, and the wandering souls of those who had died there relived the scenes of that time again and again. From the wars of the living to the battles between the ghosts, the thick bloody and evil energy that emanated finally broke through the gates of the underworld.
"Although the underworld is strictly governed and no ghosts or evil spirits have escaped, once the gate was opened, the Yin energy filled Yuxia Mountain. Coupled with the naturally generated Yin gathering array here, it almost formed a small underworld in the Yang world."
That's why Master She and his men set up a formation and tried their best to suppress it.
"It's better to drain than to block. The formation is now ineffective, and the resentment of those who died at the bottom of Yuxia Lake is gathering. If the yin energy of Yuxia Mountain is allowed to erupt, I'm afraid half of Hai City will become part of the underworld."
Qin Qinsen said as he crushed the vengeful spirit that suddenly rushed towards him, "All the ghosts have smelled it, Captain Jiang, how are your people?"
The question is naturally about the strength of the force.
"Of course, no problem." The short-haired woman following behind Jiang Wei said loudly, "Master Qin, don't worry about us. Just follow Captain Jiang and move forward."
As he said this, he threw a punch. Seeing this, his teammates immediately stepped forward and tied up the dazed soul with a red rope.
Qin Qinsen gave a thumbs up after seeing this.
Although there are some minor issues, it is still worth praising. "Well done, but don't you think it's too quiet?"
Qin Qinsen's words fell on deaf ears.
The three team members were fighting the wandering spirits with great enthusiasm, not even giving him a glance. Qin Qinsen was helpless. They were so devoted that they didn't even notice Jiang Wei disappeared, and they asked him to follow Jiang Wei.
"It's the ghostland again."
Moreover, the yin energy was even stronger, there was no wind or sound around, and there was no trace of the mountain scenery at all.
The surroundings were completely bare, even the bald-headed grass that was unique to Yuxia Mountain had vanished. Qin Qinsen couldn't help but sigh, "Luckily, I didn't let Boss Huang follow me. Otherwise, I really wouldn't be able to control him and he would have dropped some useful magical tools."
He was talking nonsense but his hands were moving quickly. He picked up small stones and threw them randomly.
"Six Ding and Seven Stars, the evil spirits are fractalized, and the evil spirits are dissipated, as if ordered."
He spoke very quickly. As soon as he finished speaking, the stone emitted a golden light before it even hit the ground and shot out in all directions.
"Taoist, accept your fate!"
"Kill...kill him..."
"I will take your head today!"
"What a mess! You must have come to the wrong set." Qin Qinsen frowned. How many people have died here? It's so messy.
As the stone exploded, the ghost realm shattered. The three men in blue and black uniforms, blinded by the sight, were dazed. The short-haired woman, though a little dizzy, was still moving with great speed. She gripped the ghost's head tightly with both hands, twisted it, and another evil ghost was killed.
