307 Half an hour

"What do you say?" Shen Muzhi looked at the yin spirits around him who were quickly surging towards this side and asked.

Xuan Cheng narrowed his eyes and said, "You go and wake up those people first, you can't stay here any longer, go directly to the tower in the city!"

Shen Muzhi heard what he meant, as if he was going to bring those people, and couldn't help frowning slightly and turning his head to look at him. However, after thinking about it for a while, he still didn't say anything, turned around and got off the roof, and went into the house to wake up the people one by one.

Several people were possessed by the Yin Soul before, and after waking up at this moment, all of them looked a little mentally damaged, and they all had no doubts about what Shen Muzhi said, and they were extremely obedient. This saved Shen Muzhi a lot of trouble.

After a few words, he took the people out of the room. Outside the room, Xuan Cheng had already called Xu Ranran and Lao Ding out of the room. Both of them were pasted with talismans with hidden breath given by Xuan Cheng.

After Xuan Cheng put talismans on the other people, he said to Shen Mu and left the courtyard with these people.

Outside the small courtyard, the yin qi is already very strong.

In the alley, several ghosts had already arrived, and as soon as they saw Xuan Cheng and the others coming out, they immediately opened their mouths and let out a loud roar, and then rushed over like a mad demon.

Xuan Cheng threw out a three-yang talisman, and the golden light was blazing, and these yin spirits suddenly froze, and then they were wiped out by the golden light emitted from the three-yang talisman in a moment.

"Let's go!" Xuan Cheng didn't look at it, and led the group to retreat towards the other end of the alley.

Behind the palace of Shen Mu.

After walking a few steps, he arrived at the door of the house where the living person Shen Muzhi had found earlier was.

The door of the house was hidden, and it was quiet inside.

Shen Muzhi had mentioned to Xuan Cheng the living person who lived here before, and at this time, when passing by, Xuan Cheng paused slightly, turned his head and glanced in along the crack in the door, but it was only a glance. Then, he continued to walk forward.

Xu Ranran followed quickly, his slightly flushed little face was full of nervousness, and he didn't notice Xuan Cheng's movement at all.

However, Lao Ding, who was following her, happened to notice. Then, he took a look inside, too.

"It's Huang Er!" Lao Ding suddenly spoke.

At this sound, there was a sudden movement behind the hidden door.

Without waiting for Lao Ding to react, the gate suddenly slammed out, and smashed directly towards Lao Ding and the others.

Shen Muzhi and Xuan Cheng shot at the same time.

Shen Muzhi flicked his sleeves, rolled the two doors and pulled them aside, fell to the ground with a bang, and fell apart.

And Xuan Cheng moved his feet, and when he came to Lao Ding, he poked out his palm and directly slapped the figure that flew out of the courtyard.

The man fell back into the courtyard, got up quickly, and then opened his mouth and let out a loud roar.

Outside, Xuan Cheng and Shen Muzhi's expressions changed slightly when they heard the voice.

"You take them away!" Shen Muzhi sighed and then walked into the courtyard.

Xuan Cheng didn't say much, turned around and walked forward.

Lao Ding was still a little hesitant, and hurriedly shouted: "What about Huang Er?"

"Don't talk anymore!" Before Xuan Cheng could speak, Xu Ranran had already turned his head and stared at him with a serious face to remind.

Lao Ding was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood what trouble he had caused by the sentence he shouted earlier, 'It's Huang Er'! Immediately, his face turned a little pale.

"Follow closer!" After Xuan Cheng heard the movement, he turned around and stared at him coldly, and then continued to move forward. Lao Ding trembled, and his face turned even paler.

Behind him, Shen Muzhi quickly walked out of the courtyard and followed. There were a few traces of bright red blood on the big white sleeves.

Lao Ding didn't dare to ask Huang Er how it was, but he didn't need to ask, he could guess what the ending was. As a result, my heart became even more frightened.

Although he knew that the reason why Huang Er was killed was because he was possessed by a yin spirit. But as soon as he thought of the cold eyes that Xuan Cheng looked at him just now, he couldn't help but be extremely worried that he would become another Huang Er and be killed by that young man with a sword!

The more Lao Ding thought about it, the more scared he became.

Then, when the group just walked out of the alley and was about to cross an uninhabited long street to the opposite alley, Lao Ding suddenly jumped out and ran away along the uninhabited long street.

Shen Muzhi and Xuan Cheng were stunned for a moment.

Xuan Cheng seemed to want to chase after him, and when Shen Muzhi saw it, he immediately said in his heart: "People who seek death, why save them again!

Xuan Chengdu, who had already taken the steps, immediately retracted it, and then led everyone through the long street quickly and disappeared into the alley opposite.

Lao Ding ran out not far, listening to the silence in the wind passing by his ears, another fear spread out in his heart. After the hot emotions in the previous head gradually calmed down, and then regret was born.

But when he stopped and looked back, there was still Xuan Cheng and them on the long street.

The seemingly bustling long street was empty, and he was the only one.

In an instant, great fear hit his heart, and Lao Ding's legs weakened.

He hurriedly ran back, wanting to chase Xuan Cheng and them. However, just after running a few steps, suddenly a charming female voice came from a shop next to him.

"Big brother, where are you going in such a hurry? Come in and have a bowl of wine!"

Lao Ding's feet froze at once, and when he turned his head, a plump woman dressed up and leaning on the door frame was looking at him from the corner of her eye, and her eyes seemed to have a hook, and she hooked Lao Ding's soul at once.

Lao Ding subconsciously walked to the shop.

When the woman saw him coming, she giggled and led him in.

As if he had lost his soul, Lao Ding followed her indifferently.

In the small shop, there are a few small square tables. On one of the square tables, there was a pot of wine, and a mysterious man in a black robe sat at the table.

After the woman led the old man in, suddenly a flash appeared in Lao Ding's hand, raised his hand and landed in Lao Ding's neck, and Lao Ding suddenly fainted.

The woman stepped over his body to the mysterious man's table, where she stood respectfully, waiting for orders.

The mysterious man didn't say anything, slowly stretched out his hand and poured himself a glass of wine, and after drinking it slowly, he asked the woman on the side: "Are you all together?"

The woman replied, "Add this, and it's all right." ”

After hearing this, the mysterious man was silent for a while, and then said: "Go and keep an eye on those people, and when they enter the Soul Suppression Tower, bring them all over." ”

"Yes!" the woman answered, and immediately turned and walked over to the old man, picked him up and walked to the back of the shop.

The mystery man sat down at the square table and continued to drink.

In a short time, the pot of wine was already in the stomach.

The mysterious man put the cup on the table with a click, got up, and walked out of the shop.

In the alley, Shen Muzhi and Xuan Cheng took Xu Ranran and the men of the caravan and hurried towards the tower in the center of the city. The journey was unexpectedly smooth. It didn't take long for them to reach the vicinity of the tower.

The tower has nine floors and is about ten feet high. The eaves of each floor are hung with brass bells. The style of those brass bells is somewhat similar to the one hanging at the city gate.

It is surrounded by a square of white marble, paved with the shape of a five-pointed star.

The square was empty.

Shen Mu and his pedestrians did not go straight to the tower, but stopped in a nearby alley.

Xuan Cheng called Shen Muzhi to his side, pointed to the tower not far away, and said, "If I guessed correctly, this tower should be called the Soul Suppression Tower." The Soul Tower has a total of 18 floors. There are only nine floors here, and the remaining nine floors should be underground. The entrance should also be underground. If we want to go down, we have to enter the Soul Tower. But there is an enchantment around this town soul tower, and it is not easy to get in, so I'll go over and find a way to break the enchantment later, and you take them to find a place to hide nearby. If something happens, you leave me alone, find the right opportunity to take them to the Soul Suppression Tower, and I have my own way to get out. After explaining, Xuan Cheng planned to leave.

But Shen Muzhi suddenly grabbed him.

"I always felt that it was not easy. He looked at Xuan Cheng, wrinkled his brows, and after a deep groan, he continued: "We came all the way, it was too smooth. That man doesn't seem to be afraid of us coming here, but seems to want us to come here!"

After hearing this, Xuan Cheng pondered for a moment and said, "You mean that that person may want to use our power to open the enchantment of the Soul Suppression Tower!"

Shen Muzhi nodded: "There is such a possibility!"

When Xuan Cheng heard this, he frowned and pondered.

"There's one more thing I've never figured out. The poplar forest above, with all kinds of weirdness, even I have palpitations. But after all these years, have you heard anything about that poplar forest?" Shen Muzhi asked Xuan Cheng again.

Xuan Cheng thought about it and shook his head.

"For so many years, there has been no accident in this poplar forest, why is it so coincidental that when we arrive here, something will happen?" Shen Muzhi asked again.

Xuan Cheng's expression gradually became solemn.

"I now suspect that this may have been a well-designed trap from start to finish. Shen Muzhi said, looked up at the tower not far away, squinted his eyes, and said, "Whether I guess right or not, just wait and see." If that person really needs us to help him open the barrier of the Soul Suppression Tower, as I guessed, then it won't be long before he finds a way to force us to do it!"

After hearing this, Xuan Cheng pondered for a moment and nodded in response.

Then the two took Xu Ranran and others to hide in the backyard of a shop.

Shen Muzhi and Xuan Cheng agreed to take half an hour as the boundary. If within half an hour, the man didn't make any moves, he went to open the barrier of the Soul Suppression Tower.

Half an hour, not long, not short.

Shen Muzhi and Xuan Cheng sat quietly in the small courtyard, but they didn't realize that the time was long.

But for Xu Ranran, it's different.

Xu Ranran wanted to speak several times, but after looking at the faces of Xuan Cheng and Shen Muzhi, he held back again and again.

Although the little girl is more precocious than the average child of the same age, she is still a child in the end. Lao Ding just ran away, and neither Xuan Cheng nor Shen Muzhi chose to stop him at that time, which finally made this little girl feel a little uncomfortable.

However, Xuan Cheng and Shen Muzhi actually saw the little girl's thoughts. Neither of them was going to explain anything, though.

Life is never cruel.

Seeing it clearly early is not necessarily a bad thing for Xu Ranran.
