Black Myth: You and I are both destined

When we arrived at this area, the sound of drums in the mountains became clearer and the speed was faster than when Tianming was on the mountainside.

Walking up the bluestone road, you will see more and more buildings on the mountainside.

At the beginning, there are only some low tiled houses. The deeper you go, the more luxurious the houses become. Some of the big houses even have couplets hanging on their vermilion doorposts.

It reads: "The luxuriant emerald green algae and clean sacrificial offerings wish you longevity."

Tianming can understand these words separately, but he can't understand what they mean when they are put together.

On the way up the mountain, I met several crazy Taoists one after another. They had pale faces and were dressed similarly to the previous Taoists.

They all liked to shout, but this time I heard it clearly.

What those evil Taoists were shouting was "ghosts are coming".

"Aren't Taoist priests supposed to catch ghosts? What are you yelling about?"

The more Tianming looked at this place, the more upset he became.

'What the hell is this place?'

"I thought it was the gods and Buddhas who did bad things, but I haven't met many good people so far."

'What is wrong with this world?'

Just when I was feeling confused, a melodious flute sound came from the front, and I followed the stone steps to the place where the sound came from.

This place looks like an ancestral hall. There is a set of stone tables and benches in front of the hall, and a Taoist priest wearing gray clothes and a white mask stands next to them.

He had a peach wood hairpin on his bun and a gourd hanging around his waist, and he looked quite well dressed.

Seeing someone coming, he put down the flute in his hand.

"It's been a long time since I've seen a stranger in such a secluded place."

Seeing someone he could communicate with here, Tianming walked up to him and discovered that there were four eye holes on his white mask.

Although it was a white mask, it was dirty and had several cracks.

Moreover, his clothes were not gray, but a dark purple Taoist robe that he had worn for a long time, with the Bagua diagram embroidered on the tattered edge of the collar.

"Taoist, have you seen any treasure chests or anything like that here?"

The Taoist turned his head back and saw that there was indeed a treasure chest in the ancestral hall behind him where his eyes were pointing.

Tianming was about to speak when the Taoist priest spoke first.

"Little layman, you have a pointed mouth, sunken cheeks, thin skin, and a yellow face. You look like a consumptive. Could it be that you have been poisoned by insects?"

"What kind of poison?" Tianming didn't like being called a consumptive patient, but it was more important to ask about the situation first.

The Taoist priest replied.

"There is a strange insect in this valley, called the Qin Mantis."

"If you eat its eggs raw, your power will increase greatly."

"But once the larvae hatch, they will eat all of your internal organs, leaving behind only an immortal shell."

Tianming had read the Classic of Mountains and Seas, which recorded the Qin Mantis, originally called Qin Chong. But it was not a bug at all.

The mantis is about two fingers long, with a wolf's head and a snake's body, and no feet. It is obviously a beast, a monster.

"You mean, those Taoists I saw just now were just empty shells, zombies?"

The Taoist nodded to Tianming and admitted the matter.

He continued speaking with a hint of sadness.

"My fellow brothers and sisters all don't believe in evil, are greedy for merit and reckless, and eat whatever they see!"

"Nowadays...most of them are incurable."

Tianming heard this and muttered softly.

"Why think about these things? I threw many of them into the valley. There is no trace of their bodies left. They don't need medical treatment."

But the next moment, the Taoist turned around, with a tentative tone in his voice.

"Little layman, if you are willing, please kill them for me."

"We are from the same sect, I can't bring myself to do it."

Seeing that the Taoist priest was speaking so slowly, Tianming also followed his pace.

"Uh-huh!"

"This, this..."

"I am a pacifist. I once quit smoking and cut down on their military spending because I was worried that my country would become a superpower..."

The other party didn't react at all.

'The ancients didn't understand this!'

"Uh-huh--!"

"Master Taoist, can't you see where I've been looking at?"

Tianming stared at the box closely, but the other party still did not respond.

"What I mean is that those Taoist priests have no grudge against me, and you want me to kill them now."

"Go! Add! Money!"

After Tianming's explanation, the Taoist finally understood.

"Young layman, if you succeed in this, you can take whatever you like."

After receiving a clear reply from the Taoist priest, Tianming left through the archway at the edge of the ancestral hall and headed up the mountain to visit his fellow disciples.

Not far up the mountain, I heard a noise.

Tianming heard someone whispering through the wall.

"Snake Medicine, this is where our master preaches, why do you allow that consumptive ghost to occupy the foot of the mountain?"

"Master Mi has already entered my Xuanming, what can he do? Ghost Spider, if you keep doing this, we will kill him in two days!"

Snake medicine?

Tianming went around the wall and peeked!

It really is the same snake monster that I met on the mountainside!

It’s just that this person spoke very clearly and was relatively sober.

"That snake said something about entering my Xuanming. Xuanming means Taoism. Is this snake demon also in the same group as the Taoists?"

Tianming felt more and more that this place was a big pit.

Ever since we went up the mountain, the situation here is different from what the Red Snake said. None of the Taoist priest and these monsters are telling the truth!

"Are there any good people in this world?"

Tianming's complaint attracted the attention of the monster!

"Who's over there!"

"get out!"

The two monsters shouted at the thickness of the wall, but no one responded.

I shouted again, and it was still the same.

They came to the corner one after another to check.

Tianming was seen holding the end of the stick with one hand and one-third of the way up the stick with the other hand as he ran towards them.

The speed was so fast that the next moment, Tianming pierced the little demons to death on the ground like a candied haws!

The last thing they saw was Tianming jumping over their heads with a stick.

This was the second move Tianming thought of - the pole vaulting stick!

After killing the two monsters, they took a closer look and found that they were wearing Taoist clothes.

The snake demon and the mountain demon looked exactly like snake spirits, and the spider ghost only had half a head left, with fleshy spider legs all over his body!

Tianming searched their bodies and found a travel book, then put it in his arms.

"Ouch!!"

"bad!"

"Bad!"

"There is not a single good person on this mountain. It really makes me miserable!"

Tianming couldn't suppress the smile on his face!

"Isn't this asking me to open the treasure chest openly? No, I'm asking for the people's help!"

Since the first day he came into this world, Tianming clearly felt that something was different about him.

Most of the fear emotions disappeared, and the desires for food and clothing, which are necessary for human beings, are gradually fading.

Only the desire to become stronger is becoming stronger and stronger!

"So his name is Mi Dao Ren. He doesn't look like a good person either. I'll look for him after I finish looking around on the mountain."

At dawn, we continued to go up the mountain. All the buildings here were in Taoist style, and we could no longer see Buddhist things like stone lanterns.

After walking a few hundred meters further up, I saw an empty courtyard filled with medicinal materials for making pills.

Although he didn't know what these medicines were, Tianming found the finished products in the big box at the back.

As soon as the hand touched it, it fell into the body.

[Mirror Powder: After taking it, the transformation energy will be instantly restored.]

It's easy to imagine that this is an ability he has not yet acquired.

“Aaaaaaaa! Ghost! It’s a ghost!!”
