Chapter 33: The Ghost Pawn

There were more and more chasing soldiers, and Qin Yuan and his wife were about to lose their hold, and their bodies were drenched in blood. Several times, it was Xia Qing who turned around and joined the battle with Zhao's butler on his back, which helped Qin Yuan and his wife get out. The sound of killing shook the sky, and no one knew how many demons were chasing after him, and the situation was getting worse and worse. Fortunately, Hong Qishao was familiar with the terrain, and led everyone to drill around in the alley, throwing off many pursuers.

"Qi Shao, how far is the City God Temple?" Xia Qing asked, Qin Yuan and Lu Qinghong's bodies looked a little bad, and they couldn't hold on to too much blood, especially Lu Qinghong, who was slashed in the abdomen, and he had to be supported by Qin Yuan to keep up.

"Coming soon!"

Hong Qishao also knew that the situation was grim, so he couldn't catch his breath and continued to grit his teeth and insist.

The group continued to walk, and after a short time, they finally came to an ancient temple. The darkness in the sky became more and more terrifying, covering a radius of ten miles, and there were no fingers on the ground.

Xia Qing and his entourage hurriedly entered the temple, Qin Yuan turned around and closed the temple door, gritted his teeth and pushed over a stone statue that fell to the ground to support the door.

Outside the door, countless disciples of the Five Poison Sect, the Yinshan Sect, and the Hundred Ghost Sect chased after them, and the White Venerable followed behind with a long whip. Wu Dongsheng's whistling sound was heard in the distance, getting closer and closer, breaking through the interception of the night whirlwind and the jade-faced spider queen and others, and chased after him, trying to block Xia Qing and his party in the City God Temple. Soon, the temple gate slammed and shook, and the demons began to storm.

There was an ancient statue of a god enshrined in the temple, Hong Qishao quickly rushed behind the statue, and lifted the floor to reveal a black passage, "Childe, from here you can directly lead to the vast sand sea behind Xihaiyuan, quick!"

"Uncle Qin, you go first!" Xia Qing raised his long sword and broke it.

Qin Yuan groaned slightly, helped Lu Qinghong into the underground passage, and walked in front to open the way. Xia Qing quickly followed with Zhao's housekeeper on his back, and after walking a few steps, he found that Hong Qishao hadn't followed.

"Young Master Xia, you go quickly, I'll stay behind the broken queen!" Hong Qishao didn't know where to find a dagger, if he wanted to leave the broken queen, he couldn't stop the pursuers and tried his best to delay time.

"Don't dream in broad daylight!"

Xia Qing directly dragged Hong Qishao into the passage, didn't even bother to cover up the entrance, turned around and left. The demon is fierce, and Qin Yuan will die after he stays behind, not to mention the kung fu of Hong Qishao's three-legged cat.

Qin Yuan lit a torch and walked in front to open the way, and the group stumbled on the ground. Not long after, there was a loud bang behind him, and the demons broke down the door, and soon found the underground passage to catch up. Fortunately, the passage was narrow, allowing only one person to bend over and walk, and in some places even crawling, no matter how large the number of pursuers was, it was useless, but a mess.

Xia Qing and his entourage took the opportunity to speed up their pace, and half an hour later, they pushed away a mess of rocks and came to the vast desert. Inside the passage, the nearest pursuer was also two or three hundred meters away, and after moving a boulder to press the exit, the group finally breathed a sigh of relief. Hong Qishao was so tired that he collapsed on the ground, not to mention walking, his legs were so numb that he couldn't move.

The light was dim, and a terrible black curtain shrouded the land, even if it escaped to the desert five miles away, it was still within the scope of the black curtain.

Xia Qing wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, and was about to put down Steward Zhao to take a breath, when he suddenly noticed that something was wrong. The silence around was abnormal, there was no sound of the wind, and it happened to be the thickest place in the dark. When I opened my eyes, there was only a vague outline of Xihaiyuan in the distance, and something was flickering in the darkness, it was a cloud of ghost fire floating in the air.

"Let's go!"

Qin Yuan also felt that something was wrong, and led the group to leave immediately, but before he had gone far, Qin Yuan stopped, his body stiffened, and his voice was bitter, "Childe, we are in the wrong place." ”

Countless ghost fires surged up, and the wind blew in the face.

Under the illumination of these ghost fires, everyone found that the surroundings were full of people, no, it should be said that they were full of lonely souls and wild ghosts. There was no heartbeat, no breathing, and they stood cold and cold without the slightest breath of life. On a hillside not far away, a man surrounded by ghost fire turned around with a sneer, and the ghost fire shone out a zombie face without any expression, it was none other than the Lord of the Hundred Ghost Gate. Behind the old monster, there stood a gloomy portal, which was like the mouth of some behemoth, and the mad lonely ghost came out of this portal, gloomy and profound, as if leading to another world.

"On July 14, the door of ghosts was opened. Everyone, welcome to the Ghost Gate, quack quack......"

Laughing loudly on a cloudy night, they are both the heads of the same sect, and they are much more terrifying than the old rich man Zhao and Wu Dongsheng. His voice, which was worse than an owl, made Xia Qing quickly remember the ghost bat sound in the cave, and his eardrums tingled faintly.

Qin Yuan took a step forward and raised the nine-section whip in front of everyone, his face was a little pale, "Old guy, what are you...... , the legendary Nine Ghost Gate?"

"With vision, this is the Nine Ghost Gate, and I am the legendary ghost pawn who can harvest your souls, quack quack...... It is your blessing to be able to see the true face of the Nine Ghost Gates. The moonlit night smirked, admitting another scary identity. Legend has it that there is a ghost door in Zhongzhou that can lead to the underground ghost house, guarded by a ghost pawn, who can release the lonely ghosts and wild ghosts of the ghost house to harm people, and can also catch people's souls to the ghost house.

The rocks at the exit of the passage were pushed away, and the pursuers rushed out, scattering and surrounding Xia Qing and his party. A black line appeared in the distance, and the black pressure of the demon surging like a tide.

Everyone secretly complained in their hearts, thinking that they would escape, but they didn't expect to crash into the tiger's den in Longtan, which was even more dangerous than in the city.

The big butler Zhao on Xia Qing's back suddenly moved slightly, and secretly handed Xia Qing a spirit talisman, his voice was weaker than a mosquito's call, "Xiao...... , Little Master, urge the mighty qi to smash this spirit rune. ”

"This is a talisman to ask for help from the masters of the Heaven and Earth Alliance?" Xia Qing's heart moved.

"Hmm!"

Steward Zhao nodded, "It's time, little master, move ...... Do it. ”

"It's all this time, is it still useful?"

Xia Qing was bitter in his heart, he didn't think that this spirit rune was of any use, even if the Great Butler Zhao really knew some powerful masters, when the other party rushed over, it was estimated that there would not even be a corpse.

Uncle Qin, Aunt Lu, Qi Shao, I'm sorry, I hurt you!

Xia Qing's heart was unprecedentedly low and desperate, knowing that there was no hope, he still crushed the spirit rune in his hand vigorously.

The dark curtain was thick, the yin and yin were piercing, and the silence around was terrifying, only the rattling laughter of the moonlit night echoed in the darkness.

However, just when Lu Qinghong was in deep despair and wanted to kill himself with a horizontal sword to avoid suffering*, the air within a radius of ten miles suddenly sank, then rippled and twisted, and an ancient and vast power fluctuation came from the void.

Everyone was stunned, and the laughter on the cloudy and moonlit night stopped abruptly, but the eyes of the big butler Zhao brightened, bright as a torch, and like two beams of light that ignored time and space, throwing themselves into the boundless void.
