Chapter 147 Reckless man!

Yan Qing has a strong affinity for metals and has already mastered refining tools. With the help of Lin Du, who draws the diagrams and explains on the spot, one is thinking and the other is working hard, and they are making rapid progress.

Xia Tianwu and Ni Jinxuan are already standing outside the gate, always on the alert for the ghost-faced bats that are flying over.

The two of them are shaking a strange little jammer in front of everyone.

The group of bats outside the door is approaching, and the two people inside the door are still squatting on the ground shaking something inexplicable.

Ni Jinxuan widened her eyes and watched as a rolling and sticky black cloud came over, flying very low, densely packed, and with subtle vibration sounds.

The so-called ghost-faced bat is because from the front, its face looks like a ferocious demon, and its flapping wings look like a muddy black sea, with a strange sheen.

Ni Jinxuan subconsciously felt that it was difficult to breathe, as if the air had also become muddy and thick and black.

Xia Tian instinctively wanted to use fire, but thinking of Lin Du's instructions, he still drew the soft sword at his waist.

Ni Jinxuan swung the long whip and threw the bat that had already approached the yard out heavily.

The whip made a crisp sound in the air, and then a blood mist burst out.

But this could not stop the arrival of the large group of ghost-faced bats. When they were about to arrive in front of them, like a huge black tile, about to cover the courtyard, the group of bats suddenly changed direction strangely, and the group scattered in chaos, some bumped into each other, and some turned around.

The sound of flapping wings in the air turned into the sound of friction and collision, and the first group of bats that were about to climb over the wall were stopped halfway.

Lin Du stood up and rubbed his stiff and sore neck, "Yuan Ye, watch here, and the others will go out with me to look for clues. If there is anything, let us know in time and we will come back in time." Yuan Ye

was a little scared, but he had to obey the orders of his junior uncle, so he took out his erhu and sat on the coffin.

Before leaving, Yan Qing patted Yuan Ye on the shoulder, "Brother, don't be afraid, there is nothing to be afraid of, you have to believe in yourself, this is the coffin you nailed with your own hands."

Yuan Ye said with a bitter face, "I don't believe it even if I nailed it with my own hands!"

Yan Qing: ...

He silently pulled out the knife on his back, "Then you press the coffin board well, meat can't grow in vain, and food can't be eaten in vain."

Lin Du had already walked into the yard opposite, and there was dust when she opened the door. Fortunately, she was prepared. She covered her mouth and nose with a gauze scarf, and no one loved her.

It just looks a bit like a bandit, but there are no other side effects.

Ni Jinxuan followed suit. This yard has been vacant for a long time. Lin Du simply let his consciousness go out again and carefully explored the entire city.

This is indeed an empty city. There is no living person. Many courtyards are like this small courtyard. They have been abandoned for a long time and accumulated countless dust.

But there are also a few mansions that are a little strange, with obvious barriers that prevent exploration inside, indicating that there is energy inside.

Lin Du glanced at the three people. Formation is the most difficult skill to learn among cultivators. In view of the fact that cultivators have to learn so much and it is difficult to take care of everything, at their age, they don’t know much about formations, so it is better for them to be together.

She is like an old hen with her cubs, with three little birds following behind her, running towards the direction of the abnormality at the fastest speed.

Several people followed suit. They dared to walk the path that Lin Du took, and they dared not take a step wrong, so as not to affect something that should not be provoked.

This time the courtyard is bigger than the previous one. The previous one was just a big courtyard, but this door already has a stone lion, which is obviously a family of status.

Lin Du reached out and pushed the door open, strangely not feeling any negative energy.

Several people entered the door one after another. From the mottled glazed tiles, blue bricks, and carved beams and painted buildings, one could still see the original vastness and magnificence of the mansion.

However, the plants in the garden were no longer lush. There was only a piece of dead flowers and trees that turned into plaster with a light touch, obviously having been dried up by the wind for a long time.

Xia Tian frowned, "These plants... seem to have been drained of vitality."

According to the laws of nature, no matter how isolated a city is, it will gradually become wild after people leave. Even in the desert Gobi, the remaining ancient city walls will have stubborn weeds growing.

But this place is an absolute dead city.

Judging from the soil, this place is not a desert, and it is not a desolate place.

"Another coffin." Lin Du's voice was very calm.

But this was not an iron coffin, but a very ordinary black coffin. Because it had been so long, the paint on it had already shown mottled cracks, but there was a magic talisman on the coffin board, and after so many years, it was still as new as ever.

Lin Du stood in front of the coffin in the main hall for a while.

"Junior Master, is there an evil spirit in this? Should we be careful?"

Lin Du shook her head, "No, there is no evil spirit."

Not only was there no evil spirit, but even the resentment and yin energy were gone.

She took out a compass, walked around the main courtyard for a while, and then took out a plow.

"Uncle Junior Master, are you going to dig a hole again?"

Lin Du didn't say anything, but he dug faster and faster. He was very familiar with digging. Soon, there was a ding sound, and the head of the plow hit something.

Xia Tianwu's eyes were quick, "Is that... a Tongmei?"

"It's a Tongmei, a spiritual stone that has been touched by the hands of thousands of people and has been touched by Tongzimei."

Lin Du dug faster and faster, and dug out a total of 17 Tongmei. These 17 Tongmei just formed a small seven-level barrier on the ground.

She lowered her eyes for a while, then turned her head to look at the coffin, "Soul Sealing Array."

Compared with the array in the yard just now, this array has a stronger punishment.

It is equivalent to trapping the resentful soul in it and never being able to get out.

Lin Du supported the plow, as if he was making a decision. It was rare that he didn't smile, but slightly frowned and lowered his eyebrows.

"Master... I just walked around the whole mansion, and there is almost no... property inside. Even the bookshelves are empty, as if they have moved. Only the shells are left."

Xia Tianwu and Ni Jinxuan have already looked around the whole mansion and found no clues.

"It's not just this mansion, other courtyards are like this, only the shells are left." Lin Du was still in deep thought, and spoke without any tone.

"How can we find out the secret of this ancient city?" Ni Jinxuan also frowned, "Isn't this embarrassing? This level must be worth tens of thousands of points, right?"

"The absence of evidence itself is the greatest evidence." Lin Du raised his head. "This shows that the people in this city migrated collectively on a large scale, and it can even be said that they abandoned the city en masse."

Ni Jinxuan followed this line of thought. "Large-scale migration is rare. In addition, this city no longer has any spiritual energy. Perhaps the spiritual power is exhausted? And it can't be a natural disaster. If it was a natural disaster, the houses would not be intact."

Lin Du nodded. "This reminds me of a record of the migration of an entire city in history."

She looked at Yan Qing, who nodded. "Yes, but that should have been more than a thousand years ago."

Two thousand years ago, there was a town named Liyang. It was a small border town, but it was relatively prosperous. There was a lot of trade and the town was relatively wealthy. But overnight, it became an isolated city.

The anecdotes of the cultivation world once recorded that this was one of the ten unsolved mysteries of the past thousand years.

"What do you mean, little uncle?"

"If this is really Liyang Town, or a one-to-one replica projection, then it would be interesting." Lin Du looked at the huge black coffin. "

I was just wondering, what kind of evil ghost would use such a cruel soul-sealing formation when the body is suspended, directly preventing people from reincarnating."

Lin Du rubbed his hands, "I kind of... want to open the coffin."

The four people looked at each other, "How about... then open the coffin?"

"What if the resentment has not yet dissipated, and the ghost returns to the body?"

"Then..." Yan Qing also rubbed his hands, "Beat him?"

"Beat him!" Ni Jinxuan raised the whip.

Lin Du looked at the three people in front of him with emotion. Since when did the disciples of the Supreme Sect become so reckless.

A bunch of reckless men, it seems she has to tie them up with a rope.

She held the fan, walked in front of the three people, and knocked on Yan Qing's head with a thump, "Reckless man! Reckless man! You too... reckless man!"

Yan Qing widened his eyes, "Junior Master! Why do you only knock on my head, what about the other two?"

Lin Du walked into the main hall with his hands behind his back, "Jin Xuan won't grow taller if you knock her on the head, she will grow taller."

"No, what about the second senior sister!"

"You dare to knock her?"

"..." Yan Qing silently hugged her knife, "嘤."

If Yuan Ye was here, he would accompany him to suffer.
