"Get ahead of the road."

She threw the compass in her hand to Qi San, and then she shook the tip of her knife under his neck and looked at the station.

"Otherwise... I won't save the lives of the three of you. ”

He was about to say something, but he immediately closed his mouth, so he had to obediently close his mouth and move forward according to the instructions of the compass.

"Purple, put ...... Let's come along. ”

As soon as Elle turned around, the two human figures were gone, and she had to shrug her shoulders and watch the Taoist priest walk forward.

"Why did you encounter a real youkai when you first came out...... What a sin. ”

Qi San muttered in a low voice, naturally it was in Ai Erli's ears, and she was a little helpless, you have two disciples, this is the first time you have come out to do activities?

“…… Can he really do it? ”

Combined with the performance of those two apprentices, and looking at this master again, Zi couldn't help but doubt the other party's ability: what kind of demonic energy can he ever feel, is it just an excuse to change tricks?

In less than 300 meters, he walked for almost half an hour, as if he was hiding from something, and walked in circles timidly.

“……”

“……”

The two monsters in the back just watched him perform there, and at first they had plans to follow, but after seeing the way he walked, the two of them just watched him go almost far, and then immediately followed with a gap, and then watched him leave.

"Purple, if it's a farce......"

“… You can do it, Li......"

Purple half-squinted, looking a little sleepy, but she was a little impatient to acquiesce to let Erli kill the three men.

"Stop! What people! ”

Qi San, who knew that his two feet had already stepped into the ghost gate, and he didn't care about the sentry post in front of him, so he had to go up hard, pretending to be an old Taoist priest, and said to the other party.

"This road traveled in all directions, but I found that there was a demonic aura lingering here, so I came here to find out."

It seemed that he was frightened by that appearance, and the person guarding the door also looked a little suspicious, and when Daoist Qi saw this, he took a step forward, and at the same time deliberately stretched the compass forward.

"The surname of this Dao is Qi, the law name is Qingxuan, and he is responsible for exorcising demons.

There is no joke in this matter, if you don't believe it, you can see the finger of this plate. ”

As he spoke, the doorkeeper looked at the compass, and then took the compass, and after turning around, he did find that the thing pointed to a certain place in the house, and he finally let down his guard, and immediately said respectfully.

"Please wait a minute, I'll go and ask the chief to speak."

With that, he hurried out of the doorway, and as he stood in front of it, hesitating whether he wanted to talk to them about the problem behind him, Ellie's voice rang in his ears.

"What do you want to do?"

He jerked his head back, only to see the little girl's face, looking at him expressionlessly.

"I didn't ...... It's nothing? ”

"That's fine. Duplicity is not something that satisfies me.

Now, get in now. ”

"Present...... Right now? ”

Seeing the other party's eyes, Qi San had no choice but to lower his head and quietly sneak inside.

"Thankfully, it was ...... at night"

Thinking so in his heart, he looked at the guard who had been pushed away by himself, and walked in the direction pointed by the compass.

The sudden flash of red light made his back suddenly cold, like a vicious tiger on his back. The priest turned his head sharply, but Erli was gone, leaving only darkness.

I just vaguely remember that it was that girl just now, and the fierce light in her eyes appeared.

He swallowed something that didn't exist, but was stuck in his throat, and stepped into the room.

The inside of the post station is more like a compound, although there are no rockeries and exquisite handicrafts, but the exquisite and ingenious layout of the garden also proves that the post chief here is one of the powerful local magnates, otherwise this place would definitely not be arranged like this.

And there are a few rooms, which seem to be guarded by someone, but fortunately, his compass does not point to that side, and he can't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

It took him another ten minutes to bypass a few patrolling guards, then walked in the direction of the pointer, and finally saw his destination.

I don't know if it's unfortunate or lucky, there is no one guarding the four rooms, only two are lonely with red lanterns, and the inside of the room is dark, and there is no movement at all.

"It's not good......"

Looking at the compass in his hand, Qi San, whose legs were trembling, couldn't help but gasp...... Even if he had the urge to scream out loud now, even if he was discovered by the owner of this inn, it would be better than being eaten alive by a monster.

But just now, the appearance of that monster really made people dare not act rashly...... If anything happens, then in any case, he will be the first to die......

So, he had no choice but to convince himself that the four rooms were just asleep......

I had just taken two steps, and the yin wind from there suddenly blew a little ripple in this strange area, which was obviously not big, but the lantern hanging in front of the house was suddenly swinging.

And the wind seemed to be mixed with some sound, as if it was mocking...... It was like a threat, and as soon as it swiped past Qi San's ears, it disappeared without a trace.

“………”

He was sweating, his heart was even jumping out of his chest, the lantern at the door was still swaying gently, and he couldn't help but look at the compass again.

The compass pointed to a room in the back, with a lantern hanging on it, but it was also in the direction of the wind.

“…… Two, this is it... If it's all right... Can you..."

Plucking up his courage, he whispered into the air, but Ellie didn't think so, she just interrupted the other and said.

"Get in."

"Can you discuss..."

"Or I'll kill you right now."

There was no room for negotiation, so he had to pluck up his courage again and walk towards the door step by step.

There was no movement in the room, no lights, no sound, as if there was no one alone, but this did not reassure the Taoist priest, but made him more nervous.

After much hesitation, he slammed the door open.

Entering with the wind outside the house, the ground was slightly dusty, but it wasn't the youkai he imagined or some kind of ghost fire, it was just an empty room.

He lowered his head again and looked at the compass.

The compass pointed to the inside of the room, where the bedroom was, and he removed the lantern, followed the light of the lantern, and looked inside.

A large bed stood in the room, but no one slept in it, and there was an oil lamp that had been extinguished for a short time.

There are traces of someone's life, but he doesn't know where the person has gone, and he didn't see the bloodstains, just when the Taoist priest was puzzled, he suddenly found that the door had been closed!

Qi San put down the lantern abruptly, ran to the door, and tried to pull it away, but just as he stretched out his hand, the lantern behind him suddenly went out.

A panic suddenly swept through his body, and he wanted to turn back, but found that his neck and back were frozen together because of fear, and he couldn't move.

"Na...... Who are you? ”
