Yin Yang Lantern Man

Chapter 300 I'm Going Home
What he had once dreamed of was now before his eyes, but in someone else's body.

And as for myself...

He removed the golden flower light covering his body, and the back of his right hand became slender and pale.

Another hand slowly reached out, but it was not the left hand.

The air began to become restless, the world gradually distorted, the moonlight turned scarlet, and the surrounding trees began to extend their wooden claws.

The grass leaves under his feet also became bloated. A beetle was struggling, and eyes appeared underneath its wings when they opened.

At the location of the broken mountain, the mountain became dark at a very fast speed. He covered it in time and then looked down the mountain.

"Solitary yang cannot produce life, solitary yin cannot grow; this is the way of yin and yang."

"But am I yin or yang?" He rested his chin on his hand and looked at the sky.
The back seemed petrified.

Behind him, Nangong Fangyun and his companions had already arrived at Loulan County along the river.

They moved very quickly, eager to find a way to deal with Liao Yun, but at the same time, they were all holding a grudge.

Desperate to get the upper hand back.

"Why is there no one in Loulan County?"

Master Liu Fu looked at the empty county town, and the people inside seemed to have disappeared.

"I remember that Loulan County has more people than our Gushan County."

"Damn it! Were we fooled? Didn't the evil spirit ask us to come look for someone or something? There's nothing here!"

The river water behind them gurgled, and several people looked at each other. Nangong Fangyun raised his hand and said, "Stand back for a moment, let me take a look."

He closed his eyes and muttered something, then bowed behind him: "Please open your eyes, my fairy."

This is a special way of praying to gods. It does not ask the gods to come directly, but lets the eyes of the household gods help see some things.

There was a gleam in Nangong Fangyun's eyes, reflecting scenes that did not belong to this time.

The time here seemed to have gone backwards. He stood up slightly and cold sweat began to appear on his forehead.

What happened in Loulan County that day finally came into view.

It's a sunny morning.

The morning market in Loulan County opened early as usual, and people were shouting everywhere before the sun came out.

Vegetable farmers carried fresh vegetables to sell, fishermen took out the fish they caught last night, and those who wanted to buy steamed buns also started shouting.

Maids and servants from wealthy families who came out to buy would often attract a lot of sellers to scramble for them.

Whoever gets our order will get a high price, which is enough to make up for two sales.

In the corner, there was a strange man squatting with his hands on his stomach, watching everything with his eyes without saying a word.

Nangong Fangyun naturally wanted to watch for a while longer, only to see that the man was acting suspiciously. After watching for a long time, he started to leave.

"do not go!"

He noticed something and hurried to catch up.

“Mr. Nangong!”

The county lieutenant and several others hurriedly followed him. He was the strongest here. What would they do if they got lost and encountered danger?
Nangong Fangyun followed the man, walking along the path, out of Loulan County, and came to the mountains behind the county.

This patch of forest is quite steep and usually few people approach it. Only hunters are willing to go in to look for wild animals.

Inside, the weirdo finally let go of his hands that were covering his stomach.

I saw that under his hand was a huge hole, and a head popped out of the belly, speaking human words.

"How's it going?"

"Reporting to the commander, this place is generally in the feudal period. From my observation, there is not much value except for the natural resources."

The weirdo's answer was very strange, and the head in his stomach nodded: "In this case, we can choose to contact. In the spirit of win-win cooperation between the two parties, we Chinese can pay more."

"Sir, please give me instructions on what to do next."

"Let more people descend. This time we can have more contact with them."

After the words fell, the man covered his stomach, and a hint of cruelty flashed in his eyes.

"Okay sir!"

Afterwards, the strange man came to Loulan County again, holding his stomach and waiting for dark.

After the night fell completely, a drum sounded, bringing silence to the county town.

But there were no more sounds, and people breathed a sigh of relief. It was a close call, as they almost thought that a human drum had been struck.

The strange man walked on the street and chose a family and climbed in.

"Who are you!"

The man got angry and asked, "Why are you coming to my house?"

"Go away, or we'll call the police!"

The weirdo didn't answer, but just loosened his hands that were covering his stomach.

"Sir, there is one vacant column."

The man hadn't even finished screaming when his stomach split open and a head was revealed inside.

"Hello, person in charge. I'm Liu Shengsheng."

"Okay, please continue with the mission. Our goal is to get more compatriots to come."

As such conversations continued, more and more people died in Loulan County, and more and more heads were filled in their stomachs.

Nangong Fangyun discovered that the first person who was covering his stomach gradually couldn't cover it anymore, and the head inside had completely grown out and was still wearing clothes.

Overnight, more than half of the people in Loulan County died through this method of occupying vacancies!
"Evil!"

His expression turned cold, and the heads in his stomach kept growing larger and larger.

They pretended nothing happened and launched a massive attack the next night!
In just two days, Loulan County was completely replaced.

The heads in these weirdos' stomachs grew bigger and bigger, and there were more and more bodies, and there were conversations like this.

"When will your journey end?"

"I'm almost there, only my feet are left, how about you?"

"I still have my calves, and this body is a little weak."

A few days later, the first strange man who was holding his belly finally grew up completely and his body was ripe.

His clothes were even stranger, and he didn't have long hair, but had braids.

Instead, he has a neat and capable crew cut.

The sight ended, and Nangong Fangyun shouted loudly!
,,"ah!"

His face was completely pale, without a trace of blood, and he could not stand steadily at all. Master Liu Fu hurried forward to support him.

It felt cold and stiff, like a dead body.

"Mr. Nangong, what's wrong with you?"

He asked with concern: "But have you overdrawn your body?"

"It's no problem. How can you go out without overdrawing your account?"

Nangong Fangyun rubbed his body to let the blood flow slowly, he stood up and said: "I know where they are."

He resisted the discomfort and stood up and said, "It's right here."

They arrived at the county government office, and as soon as they opened the door, they were immediately filled with a foul stench.

All I saw were piles of shriveled, empty corpses in the county government office, with almost no room left.

"Everyone in Loulan County is here."

Nangong Fangyun picked up one. It was very light and all the nutrients in the corpse had been drained out.

He saw clearly.

But didn’t those weirdos and evil spirits come out? Where are they now?
Nangong Fangyun did not see the large number of corpses in the river, otherwise there would be more speculations.

He described what he saw and asked everyone to think about it together.

What exactly is the problem?

"Where is the weakness of that evil spirit?"

The county lieutenant asked inappropriately: "Can't we find them one by one like this?"

"wrong."

Master Liu Fu said, "We are going in the wrong direction."

He combined the information and keenly sensed something abnormal.

"The problem is not the evil spirit, but the mass death in a county town of Loulan."

No news has been leaked. We are so close but we still don’t know. What is the other party’s purpose?
While they were thinking, Nangong Fangyun shook his head to shake off the dizziness in his brain. "I can't use the power of the immortal family now. Wait for me to recover and then see the rest clearly."

After he finished speaking, he suddenly fell straight to the ground.

"gentlemen!"

The county lieutenant was shocked: "Sir, please don't die. Master Zhu is already dead, and the Zhu family is furious. If you die again, I won't be able to save my head!"

Nangong Fangyun was unconscious and certainly could not answer. Master Liu Fu took out a talisman from his arms and pasted it on Nangong Fangyun.

"County lieutenant, please be patient. Mr. Nangong is not dead. He just fainted due to overexertion."

The ability to see past scenes must have consumed a lot of energy, so it is normal to fall into a coma.

"Let's go find a safe place outside the county first."

As he said this, he looked up and saw the forest.

"The view there is high, there are trees to hide in, and it's not easy to be discovered. We can also see the situation in Loulan County. Let's go to the mountain."

The servants provoked Nangong Fangyun, and there was a hint of panic on their faces.

In the past, when we were carrying Lord Nangong, we could solve any evil spirits we encountered. But this time it was different. Lord Nangong actually fell into a coma.

This made them feel pressured and their eyebrows twitched.

But now that they were out, they didn't dare leave without permission, so the group chose to go up the mountain.

It is not easy to walk in the forest, it is enough to hide, but if you want to see Loulan County at the foot of the mountain, you must go to the top of the mountain.

Before they arrived, one of the servants was unwilling to leave.

"Look, is there a person on that mountain from time to time?"

people?
They looked up and could vaguely see a shadow.

“Is it a tree?”

One person said, "You must be mistaken. This is a remote place. Where would people come from?"

"Really someone!"

The attendant panicked: "I have good eyesight, I can even see a needle dozens of meters away. There really is a person squatting there."

"I gonna go see."

There was no room for carelessness at this time, so Master Liu Fu slowly approached while kicking the talisman.

When they got closer, they saw that there was indeed a person squatting on the top of the mountain, looking forward, leaving only his back to them.

After thinking for a while, he turned back to look at Nangong Fangyun, who was still in a coma. He had no choice but to bite his finger and use the yellow talisman to draw a talisman to suppress evil.

Then use two copper coins to hold it, and throw it hard towards the back figure!
,,, "Pah."

The copper coin with the evil-repelling charm fell to the ground, and there was no reaction.

Is it a human?

He took two quick steps closer and saw that it was a young man in expensive clothes.

Why use expensive instead of gorgeous?
Because the clothes the young man was wearing were just right, neither too big nor too small, and the fabric was as smooth as silk, not like the ones you could buy in ordinary places.

Chen Ning'an looked down at the copper coin on the ground and picked it up.

Daqi Tongbao.

"Money is what you give. This fellow Taoist is very rich."

He put it in his arms and continued to look at the other side of the broken mountain.

"Strange, why is this mountain like this?"

Only then did Master Liu Fu discover that this entire mountain had been cut off, and the cut ends were so neat and smooth, it was truly incredible.

"Daoyou, did you do these?"

He took two steps closer and "made sure" that the person in front of him was not an evil spirit.

Maybe he is a monk on his way, or he came here to enjoy the scenery?

"No."

Chen Ningan shook his head: "I have been watching for a long time, and I also want to know why this place is like this."

"Could it be that you are here to investigate Loulan County?"

Master Liu Fu breathed a sigh of relief, and then cautiously asked, "I am Liu Yuxi from the Qing'an Division of Gushan County, and I am accompanied by the County Lieutenant of Gushan County, Mr. Nangong Fangyun from the Zhu family of Heideng County."

"We are also here to investigate the situation in Loulan County."

"I don't know if we can squeeze in. Mr. Nangong Fangyun has fainted. The terrain here is a little flatter, and we can also see the situation in Loulan County."

He was very polite and asked Chen Ning'an for his opinion.

"It doesn't matter. My name isn't written here either."

Chen Ning'an smiled, then continued to stare at Duanshan in a daze.

"My name is Chen Ning'an."

He responded and continued to stare.

It seems like you can see flowers in the broken mountains.

What a weirdo.

So Master Liu Fu went back, and soon, as the luggage was unloaded, the tent was set up, and hot meals were prepared with the clanging of the noise.

Chen Ning'an still didn't look, and finally Master Liu Fu came over with some food.

"Fellow Daoist, please eat something. Don't be afraid. Let's eat together."

He took out his knife, intending to share the animal leg with the other man.

"Thank you."

Chen Ning'an pulled out a piece with a knife and put it into his mouth.

"vomit……"

He retched and Master Liu Fu became slightly nervous.

"But... not to your taste?"

"No."

Chen Ningan shook his head: "I have been like this since a long time ago when I ate these things. I am sorry to scare you."

He swallowed the leg meat and didn't eat any more.

"Okay, I'll eat it then."

Master Liu Fu was eating meat and drinking wine. He seemed to be chatting and asked: "Daoyou is also a cultivator. Which lineage did you follow?"

"me?"

Chen Ning'an's eyes were calm and his tone was slightly high.

"The lineage of the Nine Heavens Yingyuan Thunder God."

This is his greatest pride.

Master Liu Fu frowned. There was no deity with this name in Daqi, and he had never heard of it.

He might be a casual cultivator, but since he has the word "Tianzun" in his title, he must be of some status.

"I am a disciple of the Pure Yang Lü Zu lineage."

He bowed his hands to the sky and saw Chen Ning'an's eyes light up.

"Fellow Daoist, what does it look like when you become disciples and practice?"

He seemed very curious.

Master Liu Fu was puzzled. Didn’t Chen Ning’an know this?
So he began to describe: "There are not many people in our lineage, but Master is very good to me, and I have fellow apprentices, but unfortunately I am the one with the worst qualifications among them."

"I still remember the first time I attended morning classes, the first time I was beaten, and the first time my master took me flying in the sky...

As he told the story, Chen Ning'an seemed to see a world full of fairy tales.

When Master Liu Fu finished speaking, the county lieutenant and others had already fallen asleep, but Chen Ning'an's eyes were still shining.

Perhaps, only at this time the bloodshot in his eyes were less and he didn't feel so painful.

"so good."

He looked back at Duanshan and said, "I think you're pretty good. If you follow me when something happens, you won't die."

"what?"

Master Liu Fu frowned, but saw Chen Ning'an pointing at the broken mountain and said, "I am about to go home."
