Chapter 1554 The Untamed 34
Setting up the Supervisory Office is a good thing. Jiang Cheng directly sent a message to Jiang Yanli and Meng Yao to explain his thoughts and decision, and promised Lan Zhan that the Jiang family would contribute money and manpower. "You know, being stationed in the Supervisory Office is also an experience in itself. We in the Jiang family will not miss such a good thing."
The mass grave is extremely large, it is no longer just a few hills. After thousands of years of accumulation, the endless resentment and hostility have expanded the scope of the mass grave to the size of a city.
From the outskirts of Yicheng into the area of the mass grave, even in the outermost areas, resentment and hostility are like maggots on the heel, and they begin to entangle the moment they see the life of a living person.
Fortunately, the three of them had been prepared in advance and had prepared various talismans and pills, including the most basic breath-isolating talismans, so they were able to travel safely.
Lan Zhan introduced Jiang Cheng while keeping a vigilant look: "This mass grave now has a radius of several hundred miles, and it has swallowed up countless towns. Originally, many mortals accidentally entered, and later, many cultivators with ulterior motives entered, adding a lot of resentment and hostility to this mass grave."
Lan Zhan has preliminarily confirmed that the mass grave before him is no different from the mass grave in his memory. This also means that if Jiang Cheng is willing to adopt the same method as before, he can still resolve the endless resentment here and restore a pure land to the world.
But now it seems that Jiang Cheng and Wei Ying seem to have other plans. Although Jiang Cheng hasn't said it explicitly, seeing him and Wei Ying constantly sensing as they walked, it is obvious that they are looking for something.
With Lan Zhan taking the initiative to talk, Jiang Cheng immediately took over and talked about his and Wei Ying's plan: "We have carefully checked. Although the mass grave was originally an ancient battlefield and many people died here, the battlefield itself is not a place where wind and energy gather."
"Logically speaking, even if a place like this suddenly had many people die and resentment lingered for a while, it would not become a place where Feng Shui would not change."
"So Axian and I both guessed that there might be something here that condensed the original resentment and hostility, and transformed this place into what it is today."
Wei Ying also stopped looking around and continued, “So the most urgent thing now is to find that thing. Maybe if we properly deal with that thing that gathers energy, it’s hard to say whether the resentment and hostility that covers the sky and the sun in the center of the mass grave can be dissipated quickly, but it is still very likely that the scope of the mass grave will not continue to expand.”
Analyzing only from the words of Jiang Cheng and Wei Ying, the results they described are indeed very likely. However, when Lan Zhan carefully recalled his memories about the mass grave, he really couldn't find out what the thing in the mass grave was that could gather energy like the Yin Iron. Naturally, he had nothing to say at this moment.
Fortunately, after walking for a whole morning, Jiang Cheng and Wei Ying decided to take a break. They found a relatively flat place under a big banyan tree, laid tarpaulin, set up tables and chairs on the tarpaulin, and then took out the ready-made food boxes prepared in Yicheng and prepared to have lunch.
The people of Yunmeng and Shu have the habit of adding spicy seasonings to their daily diet to remove dampness. Although Lan Zhan, who grew up in Gusu, also needs to remove dampness, the Lan family has its own suitable medicinal food. Even if the taste is not flattering or acceptable, the medicinal effect is still very obvious.
Even before Lan Zhan recalled those memories, the moment he confirmed his feelings for Jiang Cheng, he began to observe Jiang Cheng's every move, hoping to please him, narrow the distance between them, and facilitate further development.
However, Jiang Cheng took care of his taste and prepared several light dishes early on. How could he not be touched?
Jiang Cheng didn't think that he was expressing closeness and care to Lan Zhan. Even if he had no other thoughts about Lan Zhan, Lan Zhan had gone to such great trouble and risked so much to accompany him and Wei Ying to the mass grave, but he couldn't even prepare a delicious meal for them. Is he still a normal person?
Wei Ying didn't think there was anything wrong with Jiang Cheng preparing a few light dishes for Lan Zhan, and he didn't even bother to tease him about it. Instead, what he wanted to talk about was the fact that Lan Zhan always stuck to Jiang Cheng: "Second Master Lan, I really underestimated you. When we were studying together before, you even reported me for drinking, which caused Ah Cheng and I to get a beating. I didn't expect that our relationship would become so close now."
Lan Zhan also had something to say about this matter: "At that time, I just went to accept the punishment myself. It was my uncle who found out that Ah Cheng and you, Master Wei, were drinking."
“Oh, I didn’t expect things to turn out like this!” Wei Ying was really surprised. “To be honest, A-Cheng and I thought you were really rigid and were just looking for trouble.”
Jiang Cheng was also a little surprised, but he was thinking something else, "I just think that being a gentleman is certainly not a bad thing, it's even very good."
"It's just that the rules and regulations of the Cloud Recesses are too strict. They almost forbid all desires and force everyone to be calm and composed even in their emotions. This is obviously abnormal."
"When a person wants to do something, the more severe the external suppression and oppression, the more resistance he will have in his heart. One day, when all this can no longer be suppressed, it will suddenly explode like the thunderbolt in my hand, killing countless people."
"You know, in this world, the only constant is change."
Lan Zhan thought for a while after listening, then raised his head with a smile on his face, "No wonder my uncle always likes to attend the Qing Tan Club, it turns out that it really is very beneficial to people."
Wei Ying burst out laughing, "Let's just say that you, the Lan family, are like flowers that have been pampered in a greenhouse. These principles exist everywhere in the world. It just depends on whether you have the wisdom and the opportunity to comprehend them."
Lan Zhan saw Jiang Cheng smile, and couldn't help but smile too, "So, maybe this is why Ah Cheng was able to create so many techniques on his own—"
After resting, everyone continued to explore deeper into the mass grave. If green trees and red flowers, and even birds, beasts, insects and fish could be seen everywhere in the outermost area, then if one walked a little deeper, some black resentment and hostility visible to the naked eye would appear in the air from time to time, which was very different from the previous situation that turned into a gust of wind.
He put on the breath-suppressing talisman again and walked inside for a while. When the sun had completely set, he could no longer hear any sound around except the crying of ghosts and the howling of wolves.
Wei Ying was very afraid of these things, especially the cold wind here. The Breath-Suppressing Talisman could only restrain his own breath, but it would not prevent the cold wind and resentment from coming into contact with his skin.
Jiang Cheng and Lan Zhan were fine, after all, they were strong and had high cultivation levels. However, Wei Ying's dantian and sea of consciousness had been invaded by resentment and hostility before, and the impact of the resentment on him was much greater than imagined.
