Day and night tour

Chapter 103 The Tattooed Ancient Clan
Pingshui Mansion, West Third Hutong.

There is a teahouse deep in the alley.

The interior of the teahouse is decorated in a simple and quaint style. In front of a pear wood cabinet, Mr. Jiu is holding a thread-bound ancient book, reading it while drinking rice wine.

A woman with her hair tied up in a bun and wearing a small jacket, holding a tortoise shell, walked into the house with small steps.

The woman's name was Chen Lanzhi. She bowed to the wine master as soon as she entered the room: "Wine master."

The wine master glanced at Chen Lanzhi, not very enthusiastic, and just said casually: "Lanzhi, find a place to sit by yourself."

"Master Jiu, my tortoise shell has captured the whereabouts of the "Ten Fingers" and also deduced the truth about the "Human Turtle."

"What is the truth?" Mr. Jiu was not very interested in Chen Lanzhi's topic. He didn't even look at her. He drank and read a book nonchalantly and answered casually.

"Zhou Lingyi embezzled all the ten fingers, and the human turtle was also killed by Zhou Lingyi. My lord, she has violated the rules many times, and the Youshen Division should punish her."

Chen Lanzhi and Zhou Lingyi have always been at odds with each other. This time, now that she has got Zhou Lingyi's handle, she must pursue him relentlessly.

"What punishment? Lanzhi, this is not your first day in the God-Traveling Department. Can the results of the tortoise shell deduction be used as evidence? Didn't you make any mistakes in your tortoise shell deduction?
Besides, let’s not talk about the ten fingers first. Let’s talk about the human turtle. Xia Jin has admitted that he killed the human turtle and the punishment order has been issued. Do you have to bring it up again and again? Aren’t you tired? "

The wine master finished the rice wine in the cup, poured another cup, took two sips, waved his hand, and said, "Anything else? If not, please leave. Don't delay my mood for drinking."

"No more. I have written down the evidence of Zhou Lingyi's crime. My Lord, you can take a look at it when you have time."

Chen Lanzhi was very unhappy that Mr. Jiu had fooled her. She took out an envelope, put it on the table, and left the teahouse.

When the teahouse returned to silence, Jiudaren tilted his head and looked outside the door. After confirming that there was no one there, he opened the envelope and shook his head as he read it.

"Ten Fingers was just born, so he embezzled it. It's not a big deal. He hasn't been a White Walker for more than ten years. Being a Night Walker is so hard, who would do it without some benefits?
As for the human turtle, it killed Zhou Lingyi's brother. It loves his brother so much that it wants to take revenge, which is reasonable and logical. But it would be pointless to chase it relentlessly.

Alas, Chen Lanzhi herself is not very clean either, always picking on others. They are all colleagues, why is she fighting among herself? "

Mr. Jiu stuffed the letter back into the envelope, opened the drawer and threw it in, then continued drinking.

"call!"

The sound of a feather arrow breaking through the air was heard, and a golden feather arrow was nailed to the pear wood cabinet.

Jiu Da Ren looked unhappy. He bent down and pulled out the arrow. Looking at the hole left by the arrow, he said with great distress: "Oh, what a pity, what a pity. Such a good pear wood cabinet cannot be used anymore."

He pointed at the feather arrow and scolded: "Old Arrow, Old Arrow, you are really old and mean. If you have something to say, why don't you come in and say it? You have to shoot an arrow and ruin the good things."

After venting for a while, Lord Jiu held the arrow, closed his eyes, and sensed the message left by Lord Jian on the arrow.

"Hmm? The Nuo God has appeared?"

Jiu Da Ren opened his eyes, held his cheek, and said, "Although this newly born Nuo God is not yet a big deal, it is the hope for the future of Pingshui Prefecture after all. All prefectures have their own gods. It is estimated that in a few years, our Pingshui Prefecture will also have its own gods... er... a god in heaven."

Thinking of this, he took out an envelope from the drawer, drew a Taoist talisman on the palm of his hand with wine, and then held the envelope tightly.

The envelope was burned to ashes by a fire.

"Chen Lanzhi, luckily I stopped him for you. Don't offend Zhou Lingyi in the future. His brother is not an ordinary person. If he becomes powerful tomorrow and causes trouble for you, do you think you can handle it?"

The wine master scattered the ashes, took out a mirror, looked at the tip of his nose, and said, "I've been drinking too much recently, and my rosacea is about to come out... But it shouldn't be as fast as the tattooed ancient clan in Mingjiang Mansion.

That group of evil ghosts will come out as soon as the Great Nuo appears. Oh, the world will be in chaos again, where can we find a leisurely life? "

……

Mingjiang Prefecture is mountainous and has many rivers, and the Yunluo Mountains are the longest and highest mountain range in the prefecture.

In a secluded place deep in the mountains, there is a huge cave.

The entrance of the cave is wide. After entering the cave, you will find a different world inside, which is hundreds of meters high.

There is also a huge palace several tens of meters high built in the cave, which occupies almost half of the space of the cave.

The blue bricks, stone tiles, wooden eaves and all the details are lifelike.

However, if there was a gust of wind blowing in, it could cause a tall and thick pillar to deviate and make a sound of iron locks colliding with each other. Only after the wind stopped would the pillar return to normal.

The reason for this strange phenomenon is that this palace is not built with bricks, stones, wood and tiles, but with pieces of human skin pieced together to form the shape of a palace. All the bricks, stones, wood and tiles, and the carved decorations on the pillars are patterns tattooed on human skin.

The human skins were hung by thin iron chains hanging from the top of the cave.

"Duh, duh, duh."

A series of clear and slow footsteps sounded from outside the cave to the human skin palace deep in the cave.

An old man with a cane, hunched over and looking excited, walked in front of the palace.

His body was covered with copper coin tattoos. Tens of thousands of copper coin patterns almost covered his entire skin.

When the old man walked, the copper coin tattoos actually made a clinking sound.

"It appeared! It appeared! This time it wasn't the Great Nuo that appeared, it was the Nuo God! The Hundred-Eyed Priest saw it, he saw it with his tattoo!"

The human skin hanging in the cave was also excited, and the entire palace seemed to be trembling.

"Grandmaster, please send down your Dharma body so that I can see more clearly who the Nuo God is!"

The old man held up his cane and shook his body, making the coins jingle even more rapidly.

The sound of copper coins made the human skin in the palace give way - as if the palace had really opened its doors. A young man, hung upside down with iron hooks through his ankles, was revealed to the old man.

This young man is the ancestor mentioned by the old man.

There is a "baby" tattoo on the man's belly.

The baby's head is too large and his limbs are too short.

The young man opened his eyes, and the baby tattoo started crying, then disappeared from his skin. The next moment, the man's stomach suddenly became swollen.

Until the veins on the skin were exposed and the belly could not expand any further, there was a bang, and the belly exploded. The baby crawled out of the belly, crawled along the wall of the cave to the ground, and then crawled towards the old man.

Faced with the extremely strange baby, the old man was not afraid. He had a pious look on his face, knelt on the ground with his head tilted towards the sky.

The baby came to the old man and used his short limbs to dig into his chest and abdomen. Suddenly, pieces of flesh and blood from the old man's chest and abdomen were scattered all over the ground, until the baby dug a large hole that he was satisfied with and crawled into it.

The old man then stood up and said piously, "Thank you, Old Ancestor, for sending down your Dharma body."

The palace gates are closed,
The old man shook his body again, and the copper coin tattoo jingled again. The flesh and skin scattered on the ground quickly stuck to the holes in his chest and abdomen.

After a few minutes, the old man's body recovered, but his chest and abdomen were swollen.

"Nuo God, Nuo God."

The old man walked from the cave towards the direction of the tribal settlement, chanting "Nuo God" as he walked. With every word he chanted, he felt the baby's very short and thin fingers drawing on his chest and abdomen.

The first few strokes made him feel the flavor of the Nuo god, that kind of madness, cruelty, and divinity.

He seemed to really smell the scent and couldn't help feeling a little intoxicated.

"Ah, this is the smell of Nuo God, it reminds me of it!"

"The smell of Nuo God is very similar to its smell."

As the flavor of Nuo God becomes stronger,
The old man then had a standard to guide him.

"I have visualized the Nuo God. Please ask the ancestor's Dharma body to help me connect."

He took the flavor of Nuo God as the starting point, and then used deduction to connect with the newly born Nuo God.

The baby started to draw on the old man's chest again, using the flesh and blood on the old man's chest and abdomen as talisman paper, and drew one witchcraft spell after another.

The old man's eyes turned blood red. He stared hard, and first his eyes fell on a right hand.

"That right hand is so beautiful, and the fingers are beautiful too, like the masterpiece of Master Mingshi, so perfect."

The old man stared at a young man again, who was lying on a recliner with a huge tree next to him. No one knew what the young man was thinking.

"I see it, I see it, the face of the Nuo God is very handsome, it really looks like it."

The old man mentioned "it" again and again, as if "it" was his lifelong belief.

"I heard someone talking next to him. They called the Nuo God Zhou Xuan!"

"Zhou Xuan! Zhou Xuan is the Nuo God!"

The old man saw everything he wanted to see, and walked quickly towards the tribe with his cane.

The tribe lives in Green Mist Mountain.

As the name suggests, the mountain is covered with light green mist. Outsiders cannot enter the mountain. Once they force their way in, it won't take long before they are knocked out by the poisonous mist.

There are many temples on the mountain.

The style of the temple is completely different from those of Taoist, Buddhist and witch temples.

The temple of the ancient tattoo tribe was built with large stones. There were no statues of gods, only a large black stone for worship.

They called it "Master of the Dark Stone".

In the largest stone temple, hundreds of ancient tattooed people were waiting for the return of the high priest.

When they heard the sound of coins clinking, they immediately became excited: "The high priest is back!"

"High Priest, is there any news about Nuo God?"

"What does he look like? Is he similar to it?"

The tribesmen gathered around.

The high priest, with copper coins tattooed all over his body, kowtowed in the direction of the Dark Stone: "Master Dark Stone, please bless me, I found it! I found the Nuo God, his name is Zhou Xuan!"

The tribesmen quickly cheered.

"Blood sacrifice, use blood sacrifice to obtain the connection with Nuo God and nail the connection more firmly. We want to bring Nuo God back. We missed the opportunity a hundred years ago. We must not miss it this time."

The high priest waved his cane again, issuing instructions to the tribesmen and showing his desire for Zhou Xuan...

ps: I have a lot of things to do today, so I will only update twice.
