3. Ghost Pond (II)

Never thought that Feng Xing would say such cowering words, Zhang Longqian couldn't help but be stunned, and then asked back: "Big brother, aren't you afraid of anything?" Why ...... all of a sudden?"

Glancing at Zhang Longqian lightly, Feng Xing's expression was a little unruly as usual, he didn't care at all, obviously he didn't feel afraid, and his steady and confident voice also confirmed this.

"I don't care, but you're different. The front is no better than those places just now, once it passes, it is impossible to continue to travel like this, and it is better to turn back with a mentality like yours. ”

The lazy tone was mixed with a touch of disdain, which made Zhang Long be stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help laughing.

"Big brother, you actually used the agitation method on me?"

Feng Xing frowned lightly, slightly unhappy: "Who provoked you?" I'm telling you seriously. ”

Seeing that Fengxing really didn't look like he was joking, Zhang Longqian also put away his laughing expression, but didn't make a decision immediately, but asked, "What is the place in front?" ”

Glancing at the ghosts around him that had become sparse, Feng Xing replied lightly: "It should be the 'ghost pool' that connects to the underworld." ”

Hearing Feng Xing say this, Zhang Longqian understood the reason why he suggested turning back.

Fengxing mentioned before in the process of explaining the ghosts to her that the ghosts in this spiritual research field are not wandering in the human world, they should be recruited from the underworld just like the evil ghosts that the students will use for the entrance exam. However, such a huge amount of spells could not be summoned, so he borrowed this place with extremely heavy yin qi to build a passage connecting the underworld somewhere, and then introduced some ghosts in the underworld here.

- Of course, all of these actions must be approved by the Ten Yamas.

However, as early as the time of Fengxing, the academy had reached an agreement with the underworld, and obtained permission to build a passage to the underworld in the academy, and now there should be two in the entire academy, one is the "ghost door" for the Taoist in the underworld to enter and exit at will, and the other is the "ghost pool" that is controlled by the academy to open and close, and specifically enter and exit the punished ghosts.

And in the spiritual research field, it is the ghost pool.

Considering that the people who entered the spiritual research field were all students whose spells were not mature enough, the ghost pool did not include the last three extremely dangerous hells in the scope, but only connected the five great hells from the second hall to the sixth hall, and randomly changed the destination in these five great hells every once in a while, and at the same time changed the ghosts recruited to the spirit research field in a new batch, so as not to delay their punishment time in the underworld.

Since the ghosts recruited are completely random and have no limitations, there must be evil ghosts in the spiritual research field, but along the way, Zhang Longqian only saw powerful ghosts at most, and the others were all souls, and he did not find half of the evil ghosts.

And the reason for this is that most of the demons will only stay next to the ghost pool.

Unlike the ghosts and ghosts, the evil ghosts can only stay in hell, although they can appear in the human world for a short time, but if they exceed a certain period of time, they will be weakened due to the lack of yin energy, so the evil ghosts who are recruited to the spiritual research field will choose the place where the yin qi is heaviest out of the instinct of self-preservation, and that place is naturally the ghost pool connected to the underworld.

If you want to get close to the oni pond, you will definitely encounter evil spirits. The trouble is that although the evil spirits are not very good at using their brains, their consciousness has been reunited much higher than that of the Yin Spirit, and it is impossible for them to turn a blind eye to a large living person just because they cannot perceive the Yang Qi like the Yin Spirit.

If you want to move on, you're probably going to deal with demons.

Because Zhang Longqian has always been in a state where he doesn't want to cause trouble, Fengxing will propose to turn back.

But this time, Zhang Longqian changed his mind.

"Let's go check it out."

In Feng Xing's somewhat surprised gaze, Zhang Longqian laughed again: "That's the passage connecting the underworld!" It's all here, and it's too much to say if you don't see it. ”

"Are you sure?"

"That's right. After all, we were randomly thrown into the spirit field, and God knows if there will be a chance to go so close to the ghost pond next time, so it's better to seize the opportunity to see and learn, right? ”

Feng Xing raised his eyebrows: "The two spells I taught you don't have much effect on evil ghosts, even then do you still have the certainty of dealing with evil ghosts?" ”

Originally, she was not ready to rely on those two half-baked spells, but when she heard this, Zhang Longqian was not disappointed, and after thinking about it for a while, she replied honestly: "I don't know." If it's a low-level demon of the level of the entrance exam, I'm sure I'll win, but if there's a high-level one, it's not good, after all, I haven't seen it either. ”

"And you're still going?"

"Of course, I'm not there to win them. Since you don't know if you can fight or not, as long as you don't meet them, wouldn't it? Zhang Longqian grinned, "It's okay, I'm very good at hiding my body." ”

Although there was a leisurely smile on his face, he could see that Zhang Longqian's eyes had a thoughtful seriousness, so Feng Xing didn't stop it anymore, nodded and said, "That's okay, you go behind me." ”

"Oh."

After answering, Zhang Longqian left the road and stepped into the vegetation next to him.

Even in this extremely yin spiritual research field, these trees of the same species as all over the academy still grow very luxuriantly, but the leaves are darker, and I don't know if they can see the sun during the day, and what kind of light they rely on to survive. It's just that in such a gloomy place, the originally lush and pleasing plants also look very gloomy, and the shadows are like ghosts.

Walking cautiously in such a lush and dim vegetation, Zhang Longqian's figure seemed to disappear all at once, if it weren't for Fengxing's wonderful connection with her, even he would probably not be able to detect Zhang Longqian's location.

Feng Xing, who was walking on the road, couldn't help nodding secretly, and finally had a high opinion of Zhang Longqian's skills.

The two of them walked in the direction of the ghost pond one after the other, the yin qi around them became heavier and heavier, and the temperature dropped a lot, and when the thin frost could be seen on the leaves, a faint light finally appeared in front of them.

It's hard to describe what color of light it is, especially through the thick white fog, it is even more blurry, only feeling gray, obviously it should be emitting light, but it is a little darker than the surrounding fog, more like smoke than light.

It's just that when she saw the gray light, a cold and cold feeling went straight to the bone marrow, making Zhang Longqian, who was hiding in her body, couldn't help but tremble slightly, and a trace of fear arose spontaneously, as if it was deep in the depths of her soul.

Feng Xing didn't speak, but Zhang Longqian, who subconsciously stopped, already understood it as if he instinctively.

I'm afraid there's a ghost pond ahead.
