Asking about longevity

The large group of people finally returned to Tongxian City. Elder Yu rejected the others, leaving behind Mo Hua, as well as Mo Shan, Yu Chengyi, Yu Chengwu, and Zhang Lan from the Daoting Division.

Elder Yu took everyone to the living room of the Nancheng Artifact Refining Shop. There was no one around, and it was isolated by a formation, so it was relatively hidden.

Everyone knew what Elder Yu wanted to do, and their expressions were a little solemn.

Elder Yu took a sip of tea and asked Mo Hua: "Is there really a sin cultivator deep in the mountains?"

Mo Hua acted in a measured manner. He must have discovered something after spending so long in the mountains.

Thinking of the previous speculations about the deep mountains, Elder Yu suspected that what Mo Hua said before was probably true. There was indeed a group of criminal cultivators hiding deep in the Dahei Mountains, and they were probably quite powerful.

Mo Hua shook his head, "It's not a sin cultivator."

Elder Yu was slightly startled, then breathed a sigh of relief.

It’s not just a matter of practicing sin...

"It's an evil cultivator," Mo Hua said.

Elder Yu was relieved again, and he couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Evil cultivator?"

Mo Hua nodded.

Mo Shan and others looked a little stunned, and Zhang Lan looked solemn and asked:

"how many?"

"Hundreds."

"How specific?"

"About five or six hundred."

Everyone, including Elder Yu, took a deep breath.

Five to six hundred evil cultivators!

Evil cultivators are different from ordinary monks. They practice evil skills and are not allowed by the Taoist court. However, this kind of skills generally improves quickly, is powerful, and has weird and inexplicable effects, so it is extremely difficult to deal with.

The evil cultivators wanted by Daotingsi have always been solitary and rarely in groups, but I didn't expect that there were five to six hundred evil cultivators deep in the Black Mountain.

Although Zhang Lan knew that Mo Hua would not lie, he still couldn't help but said:

"You can't be mistaken."

Mo Hua said: "I saw it with my own eyes and even counted it myself.

Zhang Lan nodded, and suddenly realized something was wrong, "You saw it with your own eyes and counted it yourself, and they just let you see it like this?"

"I learned the art of invisibility, so they can't see me."

Stealth...

Only then did Zhang Lan remember that Mo Hua had learned the art of concealment.

Although he already knew about it beforehand, Zhang Lan still found this matter unbelievable.

This kid, Mo Hua, was actually able to pry out information under the noses of five to six hundred evil cultivators, and he was able to retreat calmly.

Zhang Lan felt that he should be shocked, but he couldn't be shocked. He was already a little numb. In his heart, he felt that no matter how outrageous things happened to Mo Hua, they didn't seem so outrageous...

"You are so brave..."

Elder Yu asked again: "What else do you know?"

Mo Hua thought for a while and then added bit by bit:

"The evil cultivators are all gathered in a village. The village's name is Black Mountain Village."

Black Village...

Everyone's expressions became serious as they listened.

The evil cultivator's village that lives in the depths of Dahei Mountain. Just hearing the words "Black Village" makes me feel a little sinister.

"Do you know the location of Black Mountain Village?" Yu Chengyi asked.

Mo Hua took out a picture with two lines drawn on it.

This picture is a simplified picture of a deep mountain, which Mo Hua drew from memory. Among the two lines, one is the road Mo Hua took, which leads directly to the entrance of Black Mountain Village through the hidden mountain road between the cliffs.

The other line is the way back from the ink painting, extending from the gate of Heishan Village to the edge of Heishan Village and reaching the inner mountain.

The route in the map is an ink painting based on impressions. It may not be accurate, but the general direction will not be wrong.

Everyone looked at the picture and were a little surprised for a moment.

"As expected of an formation master, your memory is also very good." Zhang Lan was speechless and curious, "But how do you know the route when there is so much fog in the mountains?"

"Because I am a formation master."

Zhang Lan didn't understand.

Mo Hua explained: "The heavy fog in the mountains is not that thick to begin with. It is because the third master of Heishan Village has set up a fog formation, so it is difficult to determine the direction..."

“But I am a formation master, and the formation he laid out just makes it easier for me to identify the direction.

Zhang Lan nodded, thinking that it was lucky that Mo Hua was a formation master, otherwise they would not have known about the heavy fog in the mountains and such a reason.

Even if they knew that the fog was caused by formations, they were not formation masters and did not know how to do formations. Looking at the deep mountains, it was still foggy, and they could not see the clues.

Only Mo Hua, who is proficient in formations and astute, can see this kind of thing.

Zhang Lan sighed in his heart.

When Mo Shan heard this, his expression changed and he asked: "Third Master?"

Mo Hua nodded and said: "The leader of Black Mountain Village is a foundation-building evil cultivator."

Mo Shan's expression condensed, "How many masters are there in total?"

"There are four." Mo Hua replied.

Everyone looked at each other, their expressions becoming more and more serious.

Elder Yu asked: ‘Do you know anything else about these four leaders? ’

Mo Hua nodded, "I found out by eavesdropping on the chat between the two evil cultivators who were watching the night..."

Of course, these two evil cultivators have been tricked to death by him...

"The first master founded Heishan Village. He has the deepest cultivation and the oldest qualifications, but is unpredictable and cannot see anyone. The second master is cold-blooded and murderous. He is currently killing people outside the village and is not in the village. The third master is a formation master and can draw evil formations. The Fourth Master is a newcomer and likes to drink blood. If he doesn’t have enough human blood, he goes out to drink demon blood at night..."

Mo Hua then told all the information he had learned about the four heads of Black Mountain Village.

The more Elder Yu listened, the more surprised he became. This information was already considered confidential. It included not only the identities of several leaders, but also the evil arts and practices they were good at.

Without the ink painting, they wouldn't be able to inquire about it at all.

Four foundation-building evil cultivators!

Elder Yu frowned.

Although it was expected that these evil cultivators had evil intentions and had been secretly developing for so many years, there would definitely be foundations in charge, but I did not expect that there would be so many as four.

Moreover, he is also a foundation-building monk who practices evil techniques.

For a moment, everyone's face was shrouded in gloom.

Seeing this, Mo Hua couldn't help but ask: "Elder Yu, can we fight?"

Elder Yu shook his head and said decisively: "I can't beat him!"

"Can't you beat me no matter what?"

"We alone can't defeat them no matter what."

"What should we do?" Mo Hua was also a little worried.

Elder Yu looked at Zhang Lan, cupped his hands and said, "I can only ask the Taoist court."

Mo Hua frowned slightly, Daotingsi didn't have many people, but he immediately realized that what Elder Yu was talking about was "Daoting", not "Daotingsi".

If so, could it be that what Elder Yu meant was...

"Tao soldiers?" Mo Hua asked in surprise.

Tao soldiers, as the name suggests, are Taoist troops, subordinate to Tao Ting and under the direct jurisdiction of Tao Ting.

When the local Tao Ting Secretary encounters a threat that cannot be solved, he can directly write to the Tao Ting and ask the Tao Ting to mobilize Tao soldiers to suppress it directly.

Mo Hua has never seen Tao soldiers, but he has also heard that Tao soldiers are extremely powerful and powerful.

The evil cultivators in Heishan Village are too strong, and all the demon hunters may not be opponents if they join forces, so the only way at this time is to recruit Taoist soldiers.

Zhang Lan nodded slightly, "I will go back to the boss right now, tell him the whole story, and ask him to write to the Taoist court to mobilize Taoist soldiers to kill the evil cultivators!"

Recruiting Taoist soldiers is not something that happens overnight. It takes time to weigh the strength of the evil cultivator, the Taoist court's approval, and the scheduling of the Taoist soldiers.

Without further ado, Zhang Lan stood up and wanted to leave, but was stopped by Mo Hua.

"I haven't finished telling you the information yet."

"What else?" Zhang Lan couldn't help but said, "How much information have you asked for, and you haven't finished telling me yet... You don't know everything about Black Mountain Stronghold, do you?"

"It's not that exaggerated..." Mo Hua smiled, then took out another picture and spread it on the table.

There are many buildings and complex formations on the map. At first glance, it looks like a large-scale building formation. Zhang Lan looked at it carefully and his eyelids twitched.

This is no ordinary architectural diagram!

Zhang Lan pointed at the picture and said with some disbelief: "You can't be..."

Mo Hua nodded, "It's the situation map of Black Mountain Village."

Zhang Lan couldn't help but said: "Did you steal it?"

"I drew it."

Zhang Lan was a little unbelievable, "Can this be drawn?"

A situation map that includes the structure and formation design of the monastery, especially for such a large building, requires on-site investigation, analysis of the layout, and proficiency in formations...

"I'm an array master." Mo Hua said matter-of-factly.

Zhang Lan didn't want to say anything else.

Okay, you are a formation master, you are great.

Elder Yu looked at the map carefully and was amazed in his heart.

This map is detailed and meticulous. The residences of evil cultivators, the cells where they are held, and even the dining room are all marked on it.

And this map was drawn by ink painting under the nose of the evil cultivator, which is even more valuable.

Elder Yu looked at it, suddenly frowned, pointed at a place and said:

"Where is this?"

This map is divided into front village and rear village.

The map of the front village is detailed and detailed, but when it comes to the back village, it is much simpler. It is probably because the back village is dangerous and I don't know much about the ink painting.

But among the simple maps of Houzhai, there is one piece that is particularly detailed.

The paths, beast gates, blood arrays, the layout of the hall and even the beams were all clear, and in the middle of the hall, there was a pill furnace and even a pig painted on it.

"This is the alchemy room of evil cultivators." Mo Hua said.

Zhang Lan's face suddenly changed, "What kind of elixir did Xie practice?"

Mo Hua shook his head, "I don't know. I only know that they are taking people to make elixirs. The room is full of blood mist, and some herbs look like they are alive."

Elder Yu frowned. He didn't know much about evil cultivators, and he didn't know what kind of elixir it was.

Zhang Lan had a serious look on his face and said in a cold voice: "They are refining the Life Pill!"
