    Ye Chen said such words with a solemn expression, which made the townspeople present couldn't help but feel a little in their hearts. In their eyes, the monks were all-powerful beings. Otherwise, how could they fly across the ancient times where wild beasts and ferocious birds were rampant?  Mountains?

    The powerful monks all showed solemn expressions, which showed that this matter was quite serious, far beyond their imagination.

    "Little brother, what is going on? Have you seen the clues and found the reason why they have green hair on their bodies, are confused and act crazy?" The old man looked at Ye Chen nervously, his eyes very worried.

    "Old man, this matter is very serious. If it weren't for this old locust tree, your ancient town and the surrounding villages would have been turned into a dead place, and no one here would be able to survive."

    As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked and felt cold all over their bodies. At the same time, they also turned their attention to the old locust tree not far away. They didn't know what the secret of the old locust tree was, but they knew that it was magical. From its  You can see it by restoring sanity to a green-haired and crazy person.

    "Little brother, what is going on? Please tell me the truth. How can this old locust tree possess these magical abilities? You are a monk who knows everything about heaven and earth. You must know the secret. I hope you can tell me."

    Ye Chen looked at the old man and the surrounding townspeople who were looking straight at him, pointed at the middle-aged man named Zhang, and said: "You said that everyone with his situation has claw marks on their bodies. In fact, these claw marks are not left by wild beasts.  It¡¯s a special kind of evil creature¡ªthe corpse cultivator!¡±

    "What? Corpse cultivator?!"

    Hearing the word corpse cultivator, everyone trembled, goosebumps appeared on their bodies, and the fear in their hearts continued to spread.

    "Yes, this is not an ordinary corpse cultivator, but a corpse cultivator that has become a big climate. I think that the corpse cultivator at this stage should especially need the yang energy of living people to nourish itself in order to break through to a higher level.  Realm. However, because there is an old locust tree guarding the town, its roots have grown under the ground of each village, protecting the ancient town here and the surrounding areas of each village, so the corpse cultivators dare not come directly.  Taking in Yang Qi, I came up with this method.¡±

    Speaking of this, Ye Chen pointed to the middle-aged man named Zhang lying on the ground and said: "Every time the yin energy and corpse energy break out in his body, he will lose a lot of yang energy, and those yang energy will be lost in his body."  He was secretly absorbed by the corpse cultivator through the void, and if the immortal energy of the old locust tree had not suppressed the corpse energy and yin energy for him, and then replenished it with yang energy, he would have died long ago.  He will bite many people, and those who are bitten will also be infected with the Yin Qi and Corpse Qi. If this continues, it will only take a few days, and everyone in the town and village will be poisoned by the Yin Corpse. Then  The corpse cultivators can absorb the yang energy of tens of thousands of people here into their bodies."

    Hearing this, the old man trembled all over and fell down directly. If the people around him didn't have quick eyesight and quick hands to support him, he would have fallen to the ground.

    "It's terrible, it's really terrible. What kind of mountain range is that? Large numbers of monks have buried corpses for thousands of years, and now there are evil creatures like corpse cultivators. Is our town really going to suffer a catastrophe?  ?¡±.  The old man murmured to himself, his eyes full of worry and his expression very solemn. This matter is related to the lives of everyone here, it is really too serious.

    "Human monk, I think you are very extraordinary. You may be able to deal with that evil corpse cultivator. I hope you can help and prevent the people here from suffering a disaster. Due to special reasons, the old man cannot move and can only stay here.  Guarding, I can only place my hope on you."

    An old voice came from the old locust tree, which scared the townspeople to the point of screaming and retreating.

    "Don't panic, everyone." Ye Chen comforted the townspeople and said: "The old locust tree is a demon monk. He has been guarding you here for at least a thousand years. Otherwise, how could you survive in the middle of two ancient mountains like this?  Those savage beasts and ferocious birds have long been here to treat you as blood food.¡±

    Hearing Ye Chen's words, everyone just breathed a sigh of relief, and their nervousness gradually calmed down. After thinking about it, they felt relieved and no longer feared the old locust tree.

    The old locust tree has been in the town for thousands of years and has been guarding everyone. If it wanted to do harm, this place would have become a dead place, so there is nothing to be afraid of.

    "Old tree demon, don't worry. Since I passed by here and encountered such a thing, I will do my best and will not just sit idly by. Tomorrow I will go to the mountains ahead to see what happens."

    "Since you agreed, I can rest assured." After the old tree demon said nothing, Ye Chen asked the old man to gather everyone together, and finally explained the matter in detail in the huge square in the center of the town.  Said once, it caused everyone to panic, and many people screamed.

    This kind of news is really too muchThe people here are too scary. The people living here are all mortals. At most, they only know some methods of body training, which have nothing to do with cultivation. When I hear about evil creatures like corpse cultivators, I just feel numb in my scalp, and my whole body is numb.  Body is cold.

    Those who once wanted to go hunting in that mountain range with a sense of luck have also given up the idea. Such news really frightened them to the extreme, and no amount of prey could seduce them.

    "Don't panic, everyone. Keep doing what you should do, but don't go to the outskirts of the mountain range during this period. Leave the matter of the corpse cultivator to me. I, Ye Chen, will try my best to give you a good living environment.  Everyone, please disperse, and be sure not to risk going there.¡±

    Ye Chen's voice was not loud and very gentle, but it had a very special feeling in everyone's ears. It contained a Taoist rhyme, which kept reverberating in people's minds, making them inexplicably have an impression of Ye Chen.  Huge confidence.

    In fact, this is just because Ye Chen doesn't want everyone to live in panic, and deliberately uses Dao Yun to make sounds to influence everyone's minds, so that they have absolute confidence in him and don't have to live in fear.

    Afterwards, Ye Chen brought Ling Xi and Ling Mo to the old man's home.  The old man's home is a large courtyard in a relatively prosperous area of ??the town. There is also a daughter-in-law and two grandsons aged fifteen or sixteen at home.

    The old man told his daughter-in-law and grandson the identities of Ye Chen and others. They were so shocked and excited that they knelt down and said, "Meet the three immortals!"

    "Get up, we are not immortals, just ordinary monks." Ye Chen pulled them up, and the old man explained with a smile that their daughter-in-law and grandson had heard about the outside monks from the elders since they were young, so  I have special admiration and admiration for cultivators. Now that I actually see a cultivator, such a reaction is normal.

    Hearing what the old man said, Ye Chen couldn't help but smile, while the old man's daughter-in-law was a little embarrassed. His two grandsons scratched the back of their heads innocently, lowering their heads and occasionally peeking at Ye Chen and others.

    "Little brother, are you really sure you can deal with those corpse cultivators?"  The old man's expression was very solemn, with some hesitation in his eyes, and he said: "From what you said before, the corpse cultivator must be very powerful. If little brother is not sure enough, there is no need to take risks for irrelevant people like us. When the time comes,  If something goes wrong, I will feel guilty for the rest of my life."

    "Don't worry, old man, I will take care of this matter. Unless the corpse cultivator is too powerful, I will have my own means to deal with him." Ye Chen gave the old man a positive answer, and then asked some other questions.  I also got to know a little bit about this ancient town.

    It is difficult to tell how long this ancient town has existed. The people in the town only know that they have been born here for generations.  According to the old man, old locust trees have grown in the town since its establishment. They die every few thousand years, and new locust trees grow in the meantime.

    Ye Chen couldn't help but be curious about this town. It seemed to be shrouded in mystery.  A small ancient town exists between two terrifying ancient mountains, and has been guarded by tree demons for a long time. This has to make people think deeply.

    "Old man, are you saying that there will always be an old locust tree growing at the entrance of the town? When the old tree is about to die, a small tree will grow up, and so on, over and over again, it will always protect this land, right?"

    "According to the oral tradition passed down by our ancestors, it should be true. In the past, we didn't know the identity of the old locust tree, but now it seems that it is indeed what you said. Before the old tree died, a new small tree had grown up and took over the responsibilities of the old tree.  , it¡¯s no wonder that our ancestors regard the locust trees in the town as sacrificial spirits and worship them every festival. It seems that our ancestors must know something, but they just haven¡¯t told the descendants.¡±

    "By the way, I heard that countless years ago, there was an extraordinary person in our town. That person walked out of the town and went to the outside world. In the end, he had the ability to transcend the world and dominate the world. It's just that it was too old and I didn't know about it.  Whether it is true or false cannot be traced and it is difficult to say clearly.¡±

    After listening to the old man's words, Ye Chen couldn't help but ponder. Just as he thought, this ancient town was definitely extraordinary. There must have been some amazing secrets in that distant era, otherwise there wouldn't have been powerful old trees for generations.  The demon is guarding you. Imagine if this would happen in an ordinary village?

    As for what the old man said, in a long time ago, someone from the middle level of the town went to the outside world and became a powerful figure. This matter is probably not a rumor, it is very likely to be true. Then the predecessor of the ancient town and its origin are even more intriguing.

    At this time, a faint scent of sandalwood and cigarette smoke came from the courtyard outside the hall. Ye Chen turned around and saw the old man's two grandsons carrying a cauldron of incense into the courtyard and lighting the sandalwood in the incense burner.

    At first glance, it really looked like an incense burner, but when Ye Chen saw it, his heart couldn't help but jump, and his eyesTwo rays of bright golden light shot out from the hole, piercing the void for several meters at once, frightening the old man and his two grandsons to tremble.

    Ye Chen suddenly stood up from his seat, and without seeing any movement, his body instantly disappeared into the hall and came to the incense burner.  This cauldron incense burner gave him a very strange feeling, making him feel an inexplicable feeling in his heart.

    "Old man, where did you get this cauldron incense burner?" Ye Chen stretched out his hand to touch the incense burner. This cauldron incense burner is one meter high. It is very simple and grand. There is the breath of time flowing in it, giving people a feeling of eternal vicissitudes. Touching it  It seems to be able to transport people's minds into the time and space of endless years ago.

    "Little brother, this is just an ordinary incense burner. Is there anything special about it?"  The old man was very surprised. He quickly walked to the courtyard, pointed at the incense burner and said: "In the old man's memory, this incense burner should be an ancestral item. I don't know where the ancestors got it from, but it must have been passed down for at least tens of thousands of years.  I didn¡¯t find anything special about it, I just thought that the sandalwood burned with it would give off a special fragrance that could make people feel refreshed, but there was nothing special about it.¡±
