Chapter 22: Ghosts!

Hurriedly leaving Guanyimen, Xiang Yuan came to the horse market in the city to choose a batch of horses with good foot strength.

The horse he rode from Guangling was sold by him two years ago because he didn't usually need it.

Fortunately, Zhuyang is prosperous, and there are many types of horses in the horse market.

After a cursory look at Xiang Yuan, he chose an adult river meandering horse with brown and red coat and four hooves stepping on the snow.

After choosing the horses, it was almost noon.

Xiang Yuan didn't delay any longer, pulled the horse out of Zhuyang City, and embarked on the official road back to Guangling.

......

Three days later, Xiang Yuan returned to his hometown Guangling, where he had been away for three years.

Looking at the familiar door in front of him, as soon as Xiang Yuan entered the door, he heard an exclamation.

"Third Young Master, why are you back?"

Turning his head to look in the direction of exclamation, a middle-aged man wearing a butler's costume entered Xiang Yuan's field of vision.

The middle-aged man was the housekeeper of Xiangfu, and Xiang Yuan said softly: "Steward Zhao, I'll go home and take a look."

What about my father and uncle?"

Quickly stepped forward to take over the burden in Xiang Yuan's hand, and Steward Zhao said with a smile: "The three masters are all at home, and the little one will lead you there." ”

With Xiang Yuan, he came to a pavilion full of grapes in the backyard garden, where Xiang Yuan's father and uncle were sitting in the gazebo, chatting about leisure.

Suddenly seeing Xiang Yuan coming back, the three brothers were stunned for a moment, and then said in surprise: "Yuan'er is back?"

I didn't say hello and came back. ”

In three years, Xiang Yuan's physique has become a little burly, even Xiang Wendong, the tallest of the three brothers, is now half a head shorter than Xiang Yuan.

Slapping Xiang Yuan's arm, which was stronger than when he was at home, Xiang Leshan smiled at the corner of his mouth, it was obvious that Xiang Yuan was living a good life outside.

Seeing his relatives, Xiang Yuan also showed a smile: "I haven't had anything to do lately, so I just want to go home and take a look."

Dad, uncle, and third uncle, the family has been okay recently. ”

Pulling Xiang Yuan to sit down under the grape trellis, Xiang Wendong stroked his long beard and said with a smile: "Everything is fine at home, your eldest brother also remarried a wife last year, and your sister-in-law was found to be pregnant last month."

I said you have to hurry up and find me a niece and daughter-in-law. ”

mentioned his marriage, Xiang Yuan scratched the back of his head, and did not answer positively.

Hearing that there was nothing going on at home, Xiang Yuan's heart, which had always been a little uneasy, also let go, said something to a few elders, and ran to find Wang Chong.

After three years of not seeing him, Wang Chong's complexion has obviously aged a little more, and a lot of loose skin has obviously appeared in the corners of his eyes and neck.

Seeing Xiang Yuan coming back, Wang Chong was also very surprised, hearing that Xiang Yuan had successfully entered the Guanyi Sect and was also accepted by Yang Jing, the martial arts were progressing smoothly, and the old nursing home was even more relieved.

Handing a bottle of ointment that regulates qi and blood and relieves muscles and invigorates the muscles to Wang Chong, Xiang Yuan asked casually: "Uncle Wang, I've been gone these days, and there's nothing going on at home." ”

Afraid that his father and uncle would be afraid that they would be worried, so they didn't tell themselves, so Xiang Yuan cautiously asked Wang Chong again.

Recalled, Wang Chong slowly shook his head: "No, Guangling has been very peaceful in recent years."

However, I heard that something seemed to have happened to the neighboring Linquan City, and even the defenders of Zhuyang were dispatched. ”

After repeatedly confirming that there was nothing abnormal in the family, a stone in Xiang Yuan's heart was finally put down.

The original uneasy mood was also relieved.

The uneasiness in his heart subsided, Xiang Yuan lived at home for five days, and after revisiting the beauty of being a rich young master, he set off to rush back to Zhuyang.

......

Looking up at the sky that was already covered with orange sunset, Xiang Yuan looked ahead.

I hesitated whether to stop and rest first, or hurry up and rush back to Zhuyang before the city gate closed.

It's less than eighty miles away from Zhuyang, and I can feel it for an hour.

The weather is getting cooler, and I didn't bring thick clothes when I walked in a hurry, and if I chose to spend the night in the wilderness, the cold wind at night was not very pleasant.

After hesitating for a moment, Xiang Yuan finally decided to speed back to Zhuyang.

"Drive!"

With a flick of the horsewhip, the horse under him let out a neigh, and galloped towards Zhuyang City with Xiang Yuan's four hooves......

......

"It's still a step slower. When he was about to arrive at Zhuyang City, he saw the city gate that had been tightly closed from a distance.

In order to bypass Linquan, this time he could only choose a slightly farther route, resulting in not being able to return to Zhuyang in time.

When he came to the city gate, Xiang Yuan turned over and dismounted, looked at the city gate in front of him, and shrugged helplessly.

Looks like I'm going to have to make do with it outside tonight.

Turning around and pulling the horse to the side, Xiang Yuan suddenly had goosebumps on his body for no reason.

Boom!

The city gate behind him suddenly made a slight crashing sound.

The earlobe moved, and Xiang Yuan turned around suspiciously.

What was that?

Approaching the city gate, the thud came again.

couldn't help but stick to the city gate, and Xiang Yuan looked inside through the gap in the middle of the city gate.

A pair of boots swaying back and forth suddenly appeared in his field of vision.

Looking up at the boots, Xiang Yuan's pupils shrank, and he suddenly understood where the impact sound came from.

It was a corpse that had been hung inside the city gates, swaying in the wind.

The slight thud was the sound of the corpse's toes hitting the city gate!

Chirping~

Because Xiang Yuan's whole person was attached to the city gate, the weight of his body was pressed on the city gate.

The city gate, which had been tightly closed, suddenly squeaked......

Slowly opened!

Looking at the city gate opened in front of him, a gap wide for one person, Xiang Yuan's face changed slightly.

Quickly took a few steps back, and at this moment, the hairs on Xiang Yuan's body stood up slightly.

A feeling of chill on the back of the spine made Xiang Yuan involuntarily lift his spirit.

Retreating to the wide area outside the city gate, Takeo stared at the dark gap in the city gate that was one person wide.

The eerie atmosphere grew worse with time.

Clenched his fists, fine beads of sweat began to appear on Xiang Yuan's forehead, and he was already ready in his heart, once he found anything wrong, he would immediately summon the green zombie body!

It seems that because of the constant retreat of the target, the existence behind the city gate is a little anxious.

Just as Xiang Yuan retreated to the side of the horse, a bloodshot cyan palm suddenly stretched out from the city gate and pressed against the door.

"I'll go!"

Seeing this terrifying picture, Xiang Yuan turned over on the horse, slapped the horse's buttocks, and was about to flee on horseback.

For things like ghosts, Xiang Yuan, who has been influenced by countless horror movies in his previous life, is even more sensitive than people in this world.

He was absolutely unwilling to fight such a being unless he had to.

He can run as long as he can, and now he is not fully sure of dealing with these things.

Although the boy's body has the effect of restraining ghosts, God knows how powerful this ghost is.

If there is a ghost king level, not to mention my twenty-year-old boy body, even a hundred-year-old virgin, it may not be useful!

Muttering in his heart, Xiang Yuan looked back in surprise.

It doesn't matter if he turns around, an iron-blue, white-eyed grimace has already chased him less than five meters behind him!

"Looking for a fight!"

I didn't expect this ghost to be so fast!

Xiang Yuan was shocked, jumped up from the horse with a kick of his legs, and waved his thick right arm, like a battering ram, and blasted towards the evil ghost!

Bang!!!

A punch smashed into the grimace's face, and a deep cold that penetrated the bone marrow made Xiang Yuan's entire right arm stiff and tingling in an instant!

Burst of power!

The evil ghost who was smashed by Xiang Yuan's punch flew upside down and fell to the ground in a whirlwind.

Most of the skin of the face was torn apart, revealing the flesh of wriggling blood-red corpse worms and sticky, rotting slurry.

Biting the tip of his tongue and squirting hot blood on his hands, Xiang Yuan was full of anger!

From the speed of the ghost catching up in the first second or two just now, Xiang Yuan knew that he would definitely not be able to run away if he wanted to.

Since you can't run away, I'll kill you!

And judging from the effect of his own punch just now.

This ghost doesn't seem to be very powerful!

The legs full of explosive power kicked suddenly, and Xiang Yuan was like a cheetah pounced, his hands were clawed, and he killed the evil ghost who hadn't gotten up yet.

Yikes!!

When Xiang Yuan's hands stained with the blood of the boy grabbed the demon's wrist to death, the white smoke made the evil ghost immediately let out a terrible howl!

It works!

The child's blood worked, and the fierce look on Xiang Yuan's face became even stronger, and he directly pierced the throat with a tiger claw and hit the devil's neck!

Hiss!

The cold eruption that penetrated the bone marrow, Xiang Yuan bowed his head in shock, and another hand grew on the demon's stomach and slammed it into his chest!

The ghost claws entered his chest, and the cold was accompanied by severe pain, making Xiang Yuan almost want to roar.

Feeling the cold ghost claws touching his heart, his body stiffened like a piece of wood!

Just as Xiang Yuan was about to launch the green zombie body and fight to the death, two white shadows like a match suddenly rushed out from the direction of the city gate, and the wind rushed to Xiang Yuan's side.

Bang!

I only felt a huge surge of force, and Xiang Yuan's thick and burly body flew out like a piece of paper, and slammed into an old tree before stopping.

The burning pain in his back and the chill in his chest that had not disappeared made Xiang Yuan's spirit a little dazed.

Struggling to get up from the ground, Xiang Yuan shook his head and looked ahead.

The pair of white-robed men and women I had seen in the barracks before were holding a pocket, stuffing the evil ghost that Xiang Yuan had almost killed just now.

"Not dead?"

Noticing Xiang Yuan's gaze staring at them, Hu Lin was slightly surprised.

An ordinary person was eroded by the yin qi of the yin ghosts, and was hit by the aftermath of their brother and sister's joint blow, and he was actually alive.

Hearing his sister's whisper, Hu Kang also looked towards Xiang Yuan, and recognized the man in front of him as one of the group of people they had seen in the barracks before.

"It's interesting, it's a practitioner in the world, and he's an unbroken boy, no wonder he can suppress the evil beating.

If not, this yin ghost has already eaten blood food and has given birth to spiritual wisdom.

I guess you don't need to make a move, this little guy can clean him up. ”

Looking at Xiang Yuan, Hu Kang showed a look of interest.

Lian Jiazi is a good candidate for servant in all major families, especially Lian Jiazi, who enters the stream, and sometimes becomes a great help for the disciples of the family.

Seeing that Xiang Yuan was able to suppress evil with his mortal body, Hu Kang couldn't help but have the idea of accepting this man as a servant in his heart!
