Chapter 37: The Barrier

There was nothing to say all night. The next day, just dawn, the two got up and ate some steamed buns from Tian Yi's house, filled their stomachs, and walked towards Heifeng Mountain to the west.

The spring has long been around the world. Along the way, the fields are full of yellow rapeseed flowers, which makes people feel refreshed. However, the closer we get to the forbidden area, the clearer the outline of the black and gray mountain becomes, and the more sparse the houses along the way are. About half an hour later, the two of them arrived near the forbidden area. As expected, there is no deserted place, the grass on the land is full of grass, there is no smell of farming, and there is also the miasma on the top of the mountain, and you can feel a gloomy atmosphere from afar.

In order to save the power of purification and demonic power, neither of them rushed on the road without using magic and walked. Just when the two were about one mile away from Black Wind Mountain, they heard the familiar monster's breathing "Ha-ha--" one after another.

The two stopped and looked around, but they did not see any trace of the monster. Even if they used the power of purification, they could not find it outside the mountain. It seemed that the monster could only be in the mountain.

Chen Shuqing asked, "You are going to truly enter the world of monsters, are you afraid?"

Pu Zixuan smiled and said, "I'm even more afraid that your conscience will suddenly be destroyed and your back will be attacked by my heart. Alas, don't drag me down."

Chen Shuqing knew that Pu Zixuan was joking, so she looked at each other and smiled, and the two continued to move forward.

I thought I would just walk up the mountain and encounter monsters, but I didn't want to walk around, Chen Shuqing suddenly stopped behind Pu Zixuan and said in surprise: "Wait a minute, there seems to be some problem here."

Pu Zixuan turned around and saw Chen Shuqing reaching out to test something in front of him, but it was empty, so he asked inexplicably: "What's wrong?"

"There is an invisible thing here that blocks me."

Chen Shuqing said as she walked forward, and saw her walking slower and slower. She stopped in less than three or five steps, retreated quickly, and said, "It's like a rubber band. The more I walk, it tightens me, and it's bounced back several times."

Pu Zixuan asked in wonder, "But why am I here?"

Chen Shuqing frowned and said, "I think this should be a kind of barrier. Humans can pass through without any obstacles, but monsters cannot."

Pu Zixuan felt uneasy and turned back to stand side by side with Chen Shuqing. She turned into a fox demon form, retreated several feet and started running, then jumped up, trying to jump over the barrier, but unexpectedly she encountered some kind of force in the air, and was bounced back to the ground and fell to a firm end.

"You are not injured, are you?" Pu Zixuan asked with concern.

Chen Shuqing got up, patted the dust on her body, and said depressedly: "I am not injured, but it seems that the barrier has been set up from the sky to the ground, so it must be impossible to get through here."

Pu Zixuan proposed to bypass this area. Chen Shuqing shook her head and said, "This is a barrier woven by the power of purification. Yesterday, when I heard him telling stories at Tian Yi's home, I had a question. Why did the monsters in the mountains only wait for humans to enter before they invade, but never came out to attack humans on their own initiative? Now it seems that the entire Black Wind Mountain must be surrounded by the barrier woven by the purifying messenger to prevent monsters from going out to harm people... I will find out what exactly, I will explore it."

After saying that, Chen Shuqing sat down, held his breath, closed his eyes and said, "Sure enough, the entire Black Wind Mountain is surrounded by the power of purification, and the origin of this power of purification is eight demon sealing runes with the power of purification, which are exactly in the eight directions of the Bagua Formation. As long as one of them is taken down, the barrier can be partially lifted. The rune closest to us is not far from the east."

So the two of them moved forward in the direction that Chen Shuqing felt. In just one cup of tea, they came to a locust tree. Sure enough, they saw an orange strip of cloth sticking on the locust tree, with symbols that they couldn't understand, or words.

Pu Zixuan was worried that Chen Shuqing would be harmed by the purifying power of the rune, so he took the initiative to go forward and take down the rune. When he saw that the rune had no fading and old appearance, it was probably not an ancient thing, and the text on it should be Sanskrit.

"It should be possible to go in now, right? Try it..." Pu Zixuan was just saying, but he saw two sharp arrows suddenly shot at the two of them from the shade of the trees not far away.

Before Chen Shuqing had changed back to human form, Pu Zixuan had an inexplicable sense of security for a moment and jumped quickly to the front of her huge body. Suddenly, a sharp arrow shot into Chen Shuqing's back, and the other arrow shot at Pu Zixuan fell into the air.

Chen Shuqing screamed, and instantly realized that he was caught in an arrow. He exclaimed at Pu Zixuan: "There is a hidden arrow coming. If you don't remind me, you actually use me as a shield?"

Although Pu Zixuan only shared a bed with her last night, Chen Shuqing's deterrence when she became a fox demon was completely different from that of usual. She immediately said guiltily: "That night, the white-haired banshee was invulnerable to swords and guns. I think you are so much stronger than her. You must be strong in your body, so how could it be..."

Chen Shuqing glared: "That night was the full moon night, and all the monsters were several times stronger than usual. How could it be compared with our flesh and blood body?"

Pu Zixuan hurriedly apologized. At this moment, more sharp arrows shot towards the two of them from another shade of tree. They were not counted clearly for a while, but at least six or seven were not less than six or seven. Fortunately, the two were already wary of their eyes and feet. They rushed out and avoided most of them. The remaining one was grabbed by Chen Shuqing and broke.

The enemy was in the dark and the two were in the dark. Pu Zixuan cursed around, "His grandma, I have a genital duel with us, and I use a hidden arrow behind my back. What kind of heroes are you a hero?"

Having said that, Pu Zixuan suddenly thought that just before, in Huangjia Village, Lijiang, weren’t they also shooting the werewolf like this with hidden arrows? But this time the role exchange and the prey was replaced by himself, and he suddenly felt a little dull on his face and no longer had the confidence to scold him again.

I saw more arrows shooting at the two of them from the shade of the surrounding trees. The two of them dodged left and right, waiting for an opportunity to counterattack, but Pu Zixuan could not feel the evil spirit at all. Chen Shuqing said helplessly: "I can't find the enemy at all. Could it be because we took the magic talisman and touched the mechanism? You can quickly paste the talisman back and try it."

A word woke up the dreamer. Pu Zixuan hurriedly put the demon sealing talisman in his hand back to the locust tree as it was. After observing around for a while, no sharp arrows flew over again, he said, "As it turns out, it seems that this rune cannot be opened. I am troublesome now, and the barrier cannot be broken. How can you enter? Otherwise, go back and rest, I will go to the Black Wind Mountain alone to find the monster."

Chen Shuqing shook her head and said, "If you have one-tenth of your sir, I am not afraid that you will go up the mountain alone, but you have not even fully awakened the power of purification. Although the enemy is not strong, the ability is weird and there are many people. I cannot let you take this risk."

Pu Zixuan asked, "Then what else do you have to break this barrier?"

Chen Shuqing thought for a while and said, "I was injured by an arrow. Although it was not serious, it also hurt my vitality. Even if I could enter the mountain today, I would be afraid of a lot of danger... So, I thought of someone."

"who?"

"I suggest that we go to Lingyun Temple to find the Abbot Shiran. First, Old Man Tian said that he had a magic medicine to cure the wound. Second, the words on this magic talisman were Sanskrit, which must be from the children of Buddhism. I think that the abbot should know its origin and solutions."

Although he was unwilling to return without success, Pu Zixuan thought about it and had no other choice, so he nodded in agreement and walked back with Chen Shuqing.
