Chapter 1392 I Won't Walk Last
Jin Tanzi said, "Master, do you mean that the tail of this dragon vein is in the water, its waist is on the shoal, its body is in the earth, and its head is on the mountain?"
Ye Yang nodded and said, "Yes! If a Feng Shui master operates it properly, they can completely turn this place into an ascending dragon formation. The hidden dragon is born and soars through the universe. Occupying this dragon vein allows one to usurp the world."
"The dragon slayer divided the slaying into four parts."
"Changing the river's course is to sever the dragon's tail."
"If we dig up the place beneath our feet, we should be able to see something like iron sand. That's the magical artifact used to sever the dragon's tail."
Jin Tanzi hesitated for a moment, then took out a Luoyang shovel from his bag and thrust it into the ground of the dock.
Ye Yang continued, "The rocks here should actually be a solid pile of square bricks without any passages, used to suppress the dragon's waist."
"That Feng Shui master deliberately built the wall like this, which is even more ruthless. He's essentially using a pair of pincers to clamp down on the dragon's waist."
"Doing so will cause the dragon spirit extreme pain. If there are steel knives, long nails, or the like below, it will be like grinding the great dragon to death alive."
"Therefore, the yin energy and baleful aura inside this passage will exceed our imagination."
"Walking inside is like walking into a place filled with miasma. Our power will be greatly reduced. Even if we don't encounter ghosts, it will be difficult to get out."
I pondered, "Badger, how many white lanterns do you have left?"
"Not many!" Wang Xiaohuan said, "Give me some time, and I can make more."
I said, "No rush. We have plenty of time. Make sure each person has three lanterns to use."
While Wang Xiaohuan was making the white lanterns, Jin Tanzi pulled out the Luoyang shovel. "Master, you're truly amazing. There really is iron sand underground."
Jin Tanzi wanted to pour the iron sand he brought up onto his hand, but Ye Yang said, "If you don't want to die, don't pour it on your hand."
Jin Tanzi was stunned. Ye Yang added, "You can pour it on the ground and take a look, but don't touch it with your hands."
Jin Tanzi took out a piece of white cloth and spread it on the ground. He poured all the iron sand from the Luoyang shovel onto the cloth. After spreading it out little by little with a dagger, he said in a trembling voice, "The iron sand is mixed with dead people's bones!"
"Could it be that all the craftsmen from back then were buried in the dock?"
I said in a deep voice, "If I'm not mistaken, those craftsmen were slaughtered in batches."
"The people who changed the river's course were all drowned in the water."
"Some of the people who built the wall were buried under the dock, and some were on top of the wall."
Jin Tanzi raised his head and looked at the dark high wall. The space between the top of the wall and the top of the cave looked unusually deep and dark, making it impossible not to feel fear.
Jin Tanzi swallowed. "Doesn't that mean that a ghost could jump down on us at any time?"
"It depends on luck!" As I turned to look at Wang Xiaohuan making white lanterns, Zhang Ruixue on the boat suddenly spoke, "Actually, this road isn't impossible to walk."
"As long as there are living people leading the way in front and ghosts guarding the rear."
I turned my head and said, "What's going on? Tell me about it."
Zhang Ruixue said, "I heard Bei Yan Jing Yun mention this road before."
"This seems like a straight road, but the light you see may not be the exit. It may also be an illusion created by ghosts to lure you over."
The elders say: When walking at night, if you see light ahead, don't rush towards the bright spot without thinking. You have to first consider where you are and where the light is coming from.
If you panic and run towards the light, you'll only realize it's a will-o'-the-wisp when you get close. Then it will be too late, because you've already stepped into the graveyard. Do you still think you can get out?
Zhang Ruixue said, "Bei Yan Jing Yun said that there are actually many forks in that crevice, and some places have holes. You might end up being led by ghosts."
"If you follow the ghosts, who knows where you'll end up?"
Shi Fei Daoren spread the map on the ground. "She's right. The map marks dangerous areas here."
"The map that the Water God drew for you also marks the location of the shrine here."
Shui Linglong said through telepathy, "The location of the Black Stone Shrine is not fixed. At least, I'm not sure if what I saw back then was the real shrine."
Zhang Ruixue said again, "Also, you have to pay attention to the last person in the team. The person walking at the back of the team is definitely a ghost."
"He will try to kill you one by one from behind."
After Zhang Ruixue finished speaking, everyone felt a chill down their spines.
Ghosts mingling with humans is a common occurrence in the world of magic, but it's something that even sorcerers find troublesome.
Even a sorcerer sometimes can't guard against a ghostly hand reaching out from behind.
What's more, in a place like the Black Stone Path, where it's even difficult to turn around, you probably won't even have a chance to escape when a ghost stabs you in the back.
Zhang Ruixue said, "The only way to pass through the Black Stone Path is to have the ghost you brought walk at the back. Use a ghost to block ghosts."
As soon as Zhang Ruixue finished speaking, Gui Kui chuckled, "I'm not walking at the back."
