"Let's go, let's go get something to eat." I beckoned Xiang Bo next to me and said.

Then, the two of us went into the tree hole, Wang Xiaoyin also followed into the tree hole, and Helian Xiaoxiao and Zhang Wenbing stayed outside. The space inside the tree hole is not very large.

The fire burned vigorously, and Xiang Bo and I roasted the fire for a while, and the cold on our bodies slowly subsided. The feeling of warmth slowly spreads through the whole body, making people feel very comfortable. Wang Xiaoyin held a thin piece of meat threaded with a tree branch in her hand.

"Is this what kind of fish?" Xiang Bo asked.

Wang Xiaoyin said: "Yes, this is what Brother Zhang grabbed from the stream, and it tastes good." You must be hungry, I'll bake you some to eat. ”

"Okay, thank you, Miss Wang." Xiang Bo saw the meat and began to swallow his saliva.

Just like when I roasted "ground meat" that day, Wang Xiaoyin put the fish on top of the stone, and the stone was close to the fire and roasted. Although I was very hungry, I didn't care about the food, so I asked Wang Xiaoyin, "How is it, you guys were okay last night, did you encounter anything?" ”

Wang Xiaoyin shook his head and said, "No, last night, after I helped Daoist Helian treat his wounds, I went outside to look for Daoist Qin, but I didn't find it." I thought you went out to the toilet and was waiting for you outside. ”

"But after waiting for a long time and not seeing you come back, I'm a little anxious. Later, when I entered the tree hole, I told me that you were not outside, and Daoist Helian was also very anxious. So the two of us started looking for you nearby. ”

"But it's already dark, even if my night vision ability is not bad, I haven't found you, Daoist Qin. So, the two of us were afraid of losing our way, so we would go back to the tree hole. After waiting for a long time, you still haven't come back. ”

"We were worried, but we didn't know what to do. However, soon there was a sound from outside the tree cave, and I thought it was Daoist Qin that you were back, so I hurriedly went out to see. Unexpectedly, I met Brother Zhang... Brother Zhang saw the light on this side of the tree hole, so he came here. ”

I nodded, it turns out that this is the case, it seems that Zhang Wenbing did not do anything.

The strange fish was grilled quickly, and the smell of the fragrance came out. Xiang Bo couldn't wait for it, and his eyes were about to fall to the fish.

"It should be baked, I'll cut some for you." Wang Xiaoyin said. Then she cut a little bit of this fish meat for me and Xiang Bo. But to be honest, the fish is very delicious, but it has a fishy smell, and it is not as delicious as the meat.

I ate a small piece and I couldn't eat it. On the contrary, Xiang Bo devoured it, as if he was a starving ghost.

"Delicious, delicious! It's delicious... I hadn't eaten a full meal in days, so I ate a little fruit......" he muttered as he munched on the fish.

Wang Xiaoyin stood beside her, looking at Xiang Bo's eating appearance, and a little disgusted, but she didn't say anything.

"Daoist Qin, you can eat a little more, there are so many!"

I shook my head, smiled and said, "No, I can't eat anymore." Maybe it was too much last night. ”

"What happened to you last night? Why did you suddenly leave the tree hole? Wang Xiaoyin sat next to me and asked me curiously.

As soon as I was about to speak, Xiang Bo next to me said: "Miss Wang, you don't know, last night, Daoist Qin was very awesome, he ......"

But before he could finish speaking, my eyes glared fiercely. Seeing my sharp gaze, Xiang Bo hurriedly stopped, and just smiled awkwardly.

Wang Xiaoyin is not stupid, she can see it, it seems that there is something wrong with the two of us. She asked again, "What's the matter, what's the hard thing to say?" ”

I explained, "It's nothing, it's just that I encountered ghosts last night, and there are quite a few of them." Then, in the morning, I met the Xiang Bo brothers again... We dodged the ghosts and came back here. ”

"Yes, yes, yes." Xiang Bo interjected.

"Oh, that's right." Wang Xiaoyin nodded, and didn't ask more.

At this time, the kind of grilled fish was basically eaten by Xiang Bo. patting his stomach, this guy's mouth is oily, his stomach is up, and it seems that people are almost unable to stand up.

"It's so full." Xiang Bo muttered contentedly, with a smile on his face.

At this time, Zhang Wenbing and Helian Xiaoxiao came to the entrance of the tree cave. The two of them had been talking outside.

Zhang Wenbing saw me sitting there cross-legged, so he opened his mouth and said, "Daoist Qin, I chatted with Daoist Helian just now, and we feel that it is imperative that we should find the Seven Leaf Black Lotus as soon as possible... Only when we have attained the power of yin law can we protect ourselves. Otherwise, if you stay here, you won't be able to get rid of those ghosts. ”

"There are still a lot of ghosts, and I've encountered more than a dozen in the past few days. Therefore, I think we should still find the seven-leaf black lotus as soon as possible. And now I don't know how many other people from the Yang World are left on this side of Manggut Mountain, so we should also find others. ”

This is Zhang Wenbing's suggestion.

The first suggestion, looking for the seven-leaf black lotus, is nothing.

But the second suggestion, find other people in the yang world, I don't think it's necessary. Just like Judge Zhong Kui said, we are here to avoid ghosts, but not to find people. Even, as long as you can avoid the ghost corpses, whether you can find the seven-leaf black lotus is not very important.

So, without being polite, I just said what I thought.

Zhang Wenbing listened to my words, squinted slightly, and then he asked me, "So, Daoist Qin, don't you want to care about others?" Daoist Qin, you are a Taoist priest in the yang world, is it possible that you are so selfish!? ”

Oh yes, that's a bad thing to hear.

I frowned slightly, and said dissatisfiedly: "Brother Zhang, where do you start with this, I don't call it selfishness, I call it self-preservation." As you just said, there are a lot of ghosts and corpses here, and with our ability, do you think it's possible to help others? ... Isn't that self-inflicted? ”

"I see, it's important to keep yourself. Perhaps, before we could find the other people of the Mortal World, we were surrounded by ghosts. Besides, we don't know where the other people in the yang world are, whether they are still here, and it will be difficult to find them. ”

"As for finding the Seven Leaf Black Lotus, this also requires luck, but it can't be found all at once. If we find it, how will we distribute so many of us? ... Not necessarily the seven-leaf black lotus grows together, waiting for us to meet and distribute it. ”

Listening to my words, the other people's faces also showed thoughtful looks.

The first to speak was Wang Xiaoyin, she said: "I think Daoist Qin is right, we are weak, and we are not opponents at all in the face of ghosts, so we can only escape." Moreover, I am afraid of ghosts and corpses right now, and I don't want to face them. ”

"If you leave from here, you'll definitely encounter ghosts, and it won't be a problem then. I've already had several sword grids change color, and I don't want anything to happen again. I would also like to get a spot on one of those five executors. ”

Xiang Bo next to him echoed: "Yes, yes, now we should be on the safe side and protect ourselves first." Saving people or something... It's just so unrealistic. We don't know those people very well, so why should we save them? ”

After listening to Wang Xiaoyin and Xiang Bo's words, Zhang Wenbing smiled and said, "You may have misunderstood what I meant. I didn't say we had to get out of here, I meant that we needed to look for the Seven Leaves Black Lotus and find the others by the way. ”

"No one likes to be adventurous, not even me. As long as we get the seven-leaf black lotus and absorb the yin power inside, we will be able to fight with the ghost corpse. Also, do you really think that those ghost corpses are just looking for us through the jade plate? ”

"They... In fact, they have already started to search for us in Mangchu Mountain. Earlier, I had encountered a large number of ghosts, and there were hundreds of them. They're searching for us, led by a red-haired ghost. ”

"If we don't gain the power of the Yin Law as soon as possible and find a way to deal with them, even if we dodge here for a short time, I'm afraid that when those ghosts find us, we will all be wiped out. At that time, the jade plates will all turn blood red, and we will have no fate with the quota of those five executors. ”

"And I might as well tell you, in fact, I have absorbed the yin power in the seven seven-leaf black lotuses, and I have found that my perception is expanding, and I faintly feel... It seems that in the north of this Mangyu Mountain, in the depths, there are more seven-leaf black lotuses. ”

"I believe that as long as we get there, we will definitely be able to absorb enough Yin Judicial Power, and when the time comes, we will not have to contact with the ghost corpses at all, and we will be able to distance ourselves from those ghost corpses through the Yin Judicial Force. Also, we need to find the weaknesses of the ghosts, and if we find their weaknesses, we will have a chance to defeat them all. ”

I have to say that I was shocked by what Zhang Wenbing learned.

"You said you had encountered a large number of ghost corpses and were searching the mountains... There's also a red-haired ghost corpse in it, when did this happen? Can you elaborate on that? I asked urgently.

I feel like things are serious.

If this is the case, then it is indeed necessary to improve one's yin power. Perhaps, in addition to hiding from the ghost corpses, Judge Zhong Kui put us here for another purpose, which is to let us find the Seven Leaves Black Lotus and improve ourselves.

Yes, it's a big possibility.

"Okay, then I'll tell you about it, and let you know that now is not the time to sit still."

Then, Zhang Wenbing told him about the group of ghost corpses he encountered.

The incident happened two days ago, Zhang Wenbing had already absorbed the Yin power in the three seven-leaf black lotuses at that time, and his physical strength was quite abundant. At noon that day, when the sky was still bright, he was resting on a pile of leaves, when he heard the sound of "hula-hu-la".

It's footsteps, and it's dense.

There's something shuttling through the woods.

The first thing that came to his mind was the ghosts.

So he immediately opened his eyes and tried to dodge. However, the ghosts did not rush towards him. He ran some distance away from the ghosts, and then, out of curiosity, he climbed a tall tree to see what was going on.

Because he sensed that there were not a few ghosts.

After going up to the top of the tall tree, Zhang Wenbing was shocked to find that a large number of ghost corpses had appeared a few hundred meters away. The corpses were very close to each other, less than thirty meters away. They were actually searching the mountains, and although the speed of each one was not fast, it was very regular.

The first ghost corpse is a red-haired ghost corpse.

The ghost corpse shook the bell in his hand, directing the ghosts to search the mountain. Also, it seems that those ghosts are afraid of the appearance of the red-haired ghost, and they all distance themselves from the ghost, and they don't want to get too close to it.

But they didn't dare to stay away from the red-haired ghost corpse, and followed him all the time, searching the mountains.
