Chapter 1427 Ye Xiaochuan's Suspicion
A long time ago, there were four ancient witch clans in southern Xinjiang, namely mountain witches, white witches, Gu witches and black witches.
The ancient witchcraft practiced by these four ancient witch clans all have different focuses.
The mountain witch clan is good at controlling beasts, controlling demons, expelling insects, and changing faces.
The white witches practice magic similar to that of the cultivators in Middle-earth. They call it witchcraft. According to legend, it comes from the witchcraft chapter of the first volume of the classic book of heaven. Particularly good at controlling fire.
The Gu witch clan is good at refining poison and making poison. The most shocking thing is using living people as vessels to make cocoons.
What the Black Witch Clan studies is the souls of the dead, and the ghost magic they practice was once unique in the three realms. According to ancient rumors, the great wizard of the Black Witch Clan can summon the souls of the dead and bring people back to life.
More than 800 years ago, Ghost King Yecha inherited the ghostly ghost skills of the black witch clan in southern Xinjiang, and this is how ghost cultivation came into existence in the world. It is a pity that these four ancient witch clans are very old and have disappeared in southern Xinjiang for at least thousands of years. Most of the witchcraft, poison, beast control, and ghost skills have been lost in southern Xinjiang. If these magic arts are completely passed down, , the witchcraft in Southern Xinjiang is not necessarily worse than that in Middle-earth, nor is it as good as cultivation in the world today.
The world was dominated by the three families of Dao, Demon and Buddha.
Gesang didn’t know much about the ancient witch clan. She said that this place should be where the Shan witch clan, one of the four ancient witch clans, once lived. It is very likely that the founder of the Thousand Faces Sect, which once was rampant in Middle-earth, was Here, the face-changing ability of the Mountain Witch Clan is passed down.
After crossing the circular water channel and arriving at the altar in the center, everyone quickly discovered that the rocks of the altar were hacked into a mess with knives and axes, and they could only occasionally see a few ancient characters from Southern Xinjiang that were crooked like tadpoles.
Ye Xiaochuan and others could not understand these ancient characters, but Gesang could only understand a little bit.
She found a few ancient characters that had not been chopped off by axes, and after looking at them for a long time she said: "Yes, the destroyed characters on this layer all record the art of disguise. It seems that they were destroyed by the Thousand Faces Sect." What is destroyed will not last long.”
Ye Xiaochuan and others were greatly disappointed. If they could find the secret method of the Thousand Faces Sect's disguise, they could find out the flaws in the disguise technique, which would be of great help in finding out the remnants of the Thousand Faces Sect hidden in Cangyun Sect.
It is a pity that before leaving here, the Qianmian Sect disciples destroyed almost all the secrets of the disguise technique recorded by the Mountain Witch Clan on the stone wall of the altar, leaving only a few words. It seems that he is determined to burn the boat and not plan to come back again.
Everyone rummaged through the altar full of skulls, but still found nothing. All the stone walls with ancient characters carved on them had been chopped into sieves with axes.
Gesang wandered around for a few times and suddenly said: "The Thousand Faces Sect should not only be good at changing faces and disguises."
Ye Xiaochuan said, "What did you say?" Gesang pointed to the four-story altar in front of him and said, "These four-story altars have different words carved on the stone walls of each floor. The one at the bottom is about changing one's face. The secret method, the second level is the method of controlling beasts, the third level is the method of controlling demons, and the fourth level is the method of expelling insects. The words above are all the words of the ancient witch clan.
, since the founder of the Thousand Faces Sect can understand the text on the Secret Art of Disguise at the bottom, then the text on the top three layers should also be able to understand, so I said that the Thousand Faces Sect may not only be a master of disguise. Simple, he should also have high attainments in controlling beasts, controlling demons, and repelling insects. "
Hearing this, Ye Xiaochuan and others took a deep breath.
Ye Xiaochuan immediately thought of the strange poison Sansan Sansan. This poison is extracted from a rhizome called aglossus in southern Xinjiang. Most people really can't do it, unless they are experts in using poisons. It seems that everyone can't do it. I underestimated the Thousand Faces Sect and thought they were just a group of guys who could change their faces.
Now it seems that their methods are far beyond everyone's imagination.
When Ye Xiaochuan discovered that this was the home of the Thousand Faces Sect, he secretly observed some of the elite disciples of the Cangyun Sect around him.
The result made him quite frustrated. The performances of Zhao Wuji, Li Daowao, Su Qin, Qi Feiyuan and others were impeccable, and there was no clue at all from their faces.
After hearing Gesang's words, Ye Xiaochuan once again secretly observed the Cangyun Sect disciples around him, and found that Qi Feiyuan's expression seemed a little unusual, while others showed exclamation, surprise, and even fear.
The expression on Qi Feiyuan's face didn't seem to change much at this moment, as if he had known all this for a long time.
Ye Xiaochuan suddenly thought that at that time, he and others were just taking shelter outside the cave and did not go deep into the cave. Qi Feiyuan came over and suddenly said that there was something strange in the cave. Then everyone continued to walk deeper along the passage, and then discovered Qian Feiyuan. The sign facing the door.
"Is Senior Brother Qi a member of the Thousand Faces Sect?"
Ye Xiaochuan couldn't help but have this idea in his mind.
As soon as the thought emerged, it immediately became out of control like a river bursting its banks, and this feeling became stronger and stronger.
There were really no other useful clues found in the Altar Cave, so everyone returned along the passage. When he gathered with other righteous disciples, three hours had passed and it was almost dawn.
The violent storm outside finally calmed down. The continuous rainfall formed a flash flood, which rushed past the foot of Tengla Mountain, carrying earth, rocks and fallen trees, and rushed towards the low-lying areas. The scene was truly spectacular.
Ye Xiaochuan stood on the mountainside, listening to the sound of mountain torrents rushing away under his feet, and his heart was as chaotic as cotton wool.
He always felt that he was very close to the truth of the matter. As long as he found the thread in the linen, he could straighten out everything.
However, every time he thought he was about to catch the thread, it would disappear without a trace.
Qi Feiyuan had not reached the realm of spiritual silence, Ye Xiaochuan was very sure of this. The several volumes of heavenly books he cultivated could easily see through the other party's cultivation.
Even if Qi Feiyuan was a disciple of the Thousand Faces Sect, he was definitely not Liu Jinyanfen. He was not Ning Xiangruo's opponent and it was impossible for him to defeat Ning Xiangruo in one move.
But Ye Xiaochuan did not dare to guarantee that Qi Feiyuan was really a member of the Thousand Faces Sect. Everyone's suspicion was based on his personal speculation, and there was no substantial evidence.
Qi Feiyuan was the proud disciple of Yunsong Taoist, the head of Yujian Peak. The most outstanding young disciples of this generation of Yujian Peak were Qi Feiyuan and He Shujian. Without detailed and ironclad evidence, Ye Xiaochuan did not dare to do anything to Qi Feiyuan.
Therefore, he did not tell Du Chun and others about his suspicion.
It was dawn, and it was another beautiful day. Yesterday's violent storm seemed to have happened a hundred years ago. When the mountain torrent passed, there was no trace of yesterday's wind and rain. Gesang held Wangcai in his arms, walked behind Ye Xiaochuan, and said, "Don't be in a daze, let's go. We don't have time to stay here any longer, so we should go to Wushan first."
