Daoist Liyue, I live in the Hall of Rebirth!

When he opened his eyes again, he found a female ghost staring at him with empty eye sockets.

Shen Ming twitched the corner of his mouth.

"Go away, I don't want to talk to you!"

Turned sideways, not to look at the pale face of the female ghost.

The female ghost raised her hand, and slowly put it on Shen Ming's neck, the cold touch felt like someone had put a handful of snow on your neck.

"Oh? I ignore you, do you think I'm easy to bully?"

Shen Ming turned around quickly, squeezed a sword formula with his index finger and middle finger, and swam quickly on the female ghost's forehead.

"Decree, get out!"

With a little golden light, the female ghost flew out of Shen Ming's room as if hit by a truck, and she didn't know where she went.

This method can only be done by people with innate qi.

However, this female ghost also gave Shen Ming an inspiration. The Command Charm is a spell that commands ghosts and gods as the core. It is not like the Thunder Talisman that has the ability to move the heaven and the earth, but it is more versatile and has strong compatibility.

That being the case, it might as well use the imperial command spell as the core, order ghosts and gods to be generals, and cooperate with Qimen Dunjia's reduction buff, it may be able to achieve the effect of strategizing and decisively winning thousands of miles away.

There are many ghosts and ghosts in this world, and the demon gods are also able to catch them. As long as they can be controlled, don't overturn the car, and supplemented with spells such as thunder charms and summoning wind and rain, basically there will be no catastrophes that did not exist in the past.

Chapter 7 Detour to Tianheng Mountain

Walking at sunset, resting at sunrise, when it was dark, it was time to embark on the road to Liyue Port again.

Going out of Dihuazhou is Guiliyuan, which used to be the hometown of a demon god.

The terrain of Guiliyuan is flat, with many relics, ruins and walls, and the traffic is relatively developed. It reaches Qingce Village in the north, Liyue Port in the south, Mingyun Town in the east, and Jueyunjian in the west. The road is much easier than before.

I heard that it was not such a dilapidated place before, and that it used to be very prosperous here.

I just don't know when it became like this.

The war of demon gods has changed a lot, and while many demon gods have withdrawn, it has also caused many prosperity at that time to disappear in the long river of history.

However, many days of fatigue had made Hu Tao and Shen Ming not in the mood to observe these historical relics, and they all quickened their pace. Living day and night every day would make people gloomy, and Shen Ming wanted to return to normal.

Even the Xiangshengtang is not alone on the night shift every day. It has been bad for people's health for a long time, and they are rotated two or three times a week.

"Pass through Guiliyuan, and you will arrive at Liyue Port." At night, Hu Tao looked into the distance, "But you have to be mentally prepared, we will not go to Liyue Port downtown."

Shen Ming was startled, but then understood.

He forgot about this, Liyuegang City generally does not enforce a curfew, so even at night the popularity is not small, if these zombies are allowed to walk on the street, it may cause riots, and eat a big night How unlucky it is to meet a zombie aisle at night.

Liyue Port has been developed for so many years, there should be fixed rules for this kind of thing.

"These things... If there is no seven-star license, they are generally not allowed to go on the street." Hu Tao said.

"So shall we take a detour?" Shen Ming asked.

"Yes, continue to detour, go southwest, bypass Tianheng Mountain, and return to the Life Hall from the southeast bridge on the other side of Liyue Harbor."

As the saying goes, Wangshan runs dead horses, and Mingming Mountain is already in front of us, but when the two of them have completely walked through the land of Guiliyuan and entered the outskirts of Liyue Port, another week has passed.

Liyue Port is in sight.

"It's really not easy." Shen Ming looked at the lights of Wanjia in Liyue at night and sighed.

"Speaking of which, it's about time. The Sea Lantern Festival is less than two months away. The Sea Lantern Festival, please Xian Dianyi, these are the two most grand festivals for the people of Liyue."

"Sea Lantern Festival?" Shen Ming muttered, suddenly remembered something, turned his head and asked, "By the way, have you ever heard of a blond traveler who wandered between Liyue and Mond, looking for his brother or sister all over the world? ?”

"The blond traveler?" Walnut lowered her head in thought, "I don't seem to have heard of it?"

Shen Ming wanted to divination, but after thinking about it, he decided to forget it, probably nothing would come out of the divination.

When Hu Tao talked about inviting Xian Dianyi, his expression was the same, indicating that the assassination of the rock king Dijun had not occurred at this time, and the Sea Lantern Festival with travelers was after the assassination of the emperor.

Please Xian Dianyi only comes once a year, and the Sea Lantern Festival is also once a year. If the emperor was not assassinated, then the timeline where he is can only be before the arrival of the traveler.

But Hu Tao said that the Sea Lantern Festival will be in two months.

In other words, this Sea Lantern Festival is the year before the year when the traveler appeared?or many years ago?

Probably not many years ago.

Shen Ming thought about it, and looked at Hu Tao.

Judging from Hu Tao's age and body shape, there is no sign of being too young or too young. It is a normal girlish appearance, and the difference in appearance of a normal person two years away can be easily discerned.

If it was really six or seven years before the appearance of the traveler, then Hu Tao should be a loli at this time, and to be more ruthless, more than ten years before the start of the main story, then Hu Tao should be a young girl.

But the reality is not like this. Does that mean that with this Sea Lantern Festival as the node, it has been less than two years since the Sea Lantern Festival that the travelers arrived?

Perhaps, to be more daring, it is the last Sea Lantern Festival where travelers appeared!

"Let's go." Walnut said.

From then on, the two bid farewell to Liyue's Wanjia lights, turned their heads and entered the mountains.

In the mountains, everything is silent.

"It's strange, there aren't many monsters around Tianheng Mountain?" Shen Ming felt strange. It's not that there are no monsters at all, but compared to Guiliyuan and Qingcezhuang, the monsters on Tianheng Mountain are both larger and more ferocious. are far inferior.

"How dare they?!" Hu Tao signaled Shen Ming to follow quickly, "This is the place where the True Monarch died. Which monster would dare to act presumptuously here?"

"Yi Xiao Dao Tian Zhenjun had someone cut off his antlers when Tianheng Mountain was about to be bombarded by the demon god, and used it to withstand the collapse, even a little higher, and fought until the last drop of blood, bloody battle The blood in the blood pooled into today's Bishui River."

"The True Monarch has been guarding us for so many years, and the immortal body of the True Monarch is buried under our feet. The monsters who dare to attack the people of Liyue in such a place may not have died before."

Thinking about it this way, it is true.

The road through Tianheng Mountain is not as difficult as imagined. This road has been explored by countless people for hundreds of years. In addition, there are not many monsters intruding. After only a day and a half, more and more human villages began to appear. .

In the evening, Hu Tao and Shen Ming rested in a dilapidated inn, drank water, and packed their luggage.

"Shall we avoid it?" Shen Ming asked Hu Tao.

In the past few days, villagers have come out for activities.

"Let me see..." Hu Tao looked up at the sky.

Although it's not completely dark yet, it doesn't have much effect on zombies.

"Go straight, take out your bell, shout a few times, and remind the people around you."

Shen Ming started to rummage through his pockets, took out the bell from before, and then picked up his innate qi, and shook it lightly.

Ding--

"Shadows go on the road, strangers stay away!"

Although the ancient corpses often had bells and chanted words, few people knew that this was not a ritual for the dead, nor was it a password spell.

Bells and libretto were prepared for the living from the very beginning, and driving corpses is an unlucky job after all, and encountering jumping dead people at night will surely make you seriously ill.

So the libretto was sung for the living, telling them not to approach, and the bell was for wild beasts, to frighten them away with the sound and protect the corpse from being bitten.

However, after experiencing the baptism of time, in the end, such a process also evolved into a ritual.

On the night road in the mountains, a row of figures bouncing forward, the woman in front of her is lightly hopping, waving the white paper money in her hand, and the figures behind her are bouncing neatly.

Ding--

"Shady people go on the road, strangers avoid—"

In the silent mountain, such ringtones and singing are particularly prominent, and it is even more strange when combined with the woman who is throwing paper money in front.

The villagers and children who saw this scene quietly closed the windows tightly, and the mountain people who overheard it also took a detour wisely.

This was exactly the effect Shen Ming and Hu Tao wanted. At some point, the bridge of Liyue Port came into view.

Chapter 8 First Arrival at Liyue Port

The night in Liyue Port is quiet and noisy.

The tranquility is due to the people here. The poets enjoying the scenery shake their heads in meditation, and the diners at the food stalls talk in low voices, making the sound of crickets seem to become crisp.

The hustle and bustle is also due to the people here, the sudden children running past bring laughter, the footsteps of the Qianyan Army patrolling, and chartered cars crush the Qingshi Road from time to time.

The lights that flicker every other place are not brightly lit, but there are few blind spots that the lights cannot reach.

Shen Ming stood by the bridge, watching the scene.

"This is just Liyue Port at night." Hu Tao said, "The busiest time is actually during the day."

"I'll take the guests to the Changshengtang first, you can go shopping in Liyue first, and come to the Changshengtang when it's almost dawn."

"Okay." Shen Ming did not reject Hu Tao's kindness.

The scene that could only be seen from a distance in the game before is now in front of your eyes, so you must appreciate it carefully.

However, before appreciating it carefully, there was one more thing Shen Ming wanted to do, but he had never been able to do it before. He turned around and went to the grocery store.

"Boss, please give me a calendar, thank you."

"Calendar, all right!"

"how much is it?"

"2000 moras, thanks for your patronage."

"Give."

----

2000 Mora, Shen Ming looked at his wallet with a sigh.

He didn't have much money in total, so he had to spend one-sixth of Shen Ming's Mora at once.

Well, although it hurts, it's all worth it.

Shen Ming is going to start aligning the calendar, he wants to make the celestial stems and earthly branches in the calculation of spells align with the time and space of Tivat again.

This is a very important task, which involves Shen Ming's use of Qimen Dunjia in the future.

There is almost no use of heavenly stems in Liuyao divination, so Shen Ming could still do divination at that time, and the calculations were not far behind, but Qimen Dunjia was not good, this technique is very sensitive to time and space information.

Qimen Dunjia is divided into Magic Qimen and Mathematics Qimen. Magic Qimen is based on the innate qi, with Liuding Liujia God as the core, commanding ghosts and gods, calling wind and rain, and Zhuge Liang's famous Seven Star Continuing Life Formation is one of them.

Mathematics Qimen is a top-level forecasting technique that integrates astronomy, geography, humanities, time and space, and many other fields. It takes the land, human, sky, and astrolabe as observation points, and starts from time and space.

There is no need for birthday horoscopes, no need to toss coins, and to eliminate the interference of inspiration to the greatest extent. As long as you know the questions to ask and the time to ask them, you can start the game.

Beginners need to compare with the classics one by one; proficient ones can memorize the classics firmly, and can solve them with one stroke of paper or one turntable.

A master, every detail of the Qimen game is familiar by heart, with a plate in his heart, using the joints of the index finger, middle finger, and ring finger as the dividing line, and hiding the nine palaces in the palm of his hand. One time, one question, pinch fingers to calculate, You can know the affairs of the world.

Mathematics Qimen has its own unique concept of time and space, Qimen game is also its unique concept, a total of [-] kinds, divided into nine games of yin escape and nine games of yang escape.

There are 24 months in a year, [-] solar terms, each solar term has [-] days, each solar term has three strange gates, and each strange gate lasts for five days, and it goes round and round, so the time and space are clearly defined. It is very important for the Qimen game.

Just like that, Shen Ming corrected the celestial stems and earthly branches and the seasonal solar terms with the calendar, while walking on the bluestone road on the Liyue night.

Suddenly, I smelled a fragrance, which was indescribably familiar.

"Central Plain offal, delicious and inexpensive!"

The clean and refreshing female voice attracted Shen Ming's attention. Speaking of which, there were so many sellers on the snack street, Shen Ming could hear it all at once.

It may be catchy, or it may have the word Zhongyuan.

He walked over and sat on the bench.

"What do you want, sir?"

"Didn't you say it all, the offal from the Central Plains is delicious and not expensive." Shen Ming put the calendar aside and said with a smile, "Then come here."

"Okay! Look at it, guest officer. I'm an old crafter. No one except Gou San'er can say that eating the whole Huyan is not good! It will definitely surprise you in a while!"

"You are still open at this point." Shen Ming chatted with Su Erniang, the owner of the food stall.

"It's all small business, how can we do it if we don't work hard?"

"However, this can be regarded as the characteristic of Liyue Port. After all, it is a commercial port. Due to the time difference and voyage, there are not a few merchant ships arriving in Liyue Port in the middle of the night. In this way, the curfew will definitely not work. Over time That's all." The Qianyan Army who was patrolling next to him also said a few words after hearing what Shen Ming and Su Erniang said.

Then they left in a hurry.

"It's too busy." Shen Ming said while eating offal skewers.
