Seeing Qing Yao like this, my heart is very happy, to be honest, I really feel that I owe her too much.

After a long time, Qing Yao said: "Then what should I do next, your master and uncle are still guarded by ghost generals." ”

I thought for a moment and asked, "Is the ghost king no longer inside?" ”

"The ghost king is no more, it is said that there is a place where a lot of ghosts are sealed, he went to find that place, there are only three ghost generals." Qing Yao hurriedly said.

"In that case, let's get rid of this place. The people who sent me the letter were the ones who asked the Taomen, and I think they were already on their way. When they arrive, we'll do it. I said while looking at Qing Yao.

Qing Yao nodded after hearing this, and then the two of us quieted down, after all, there is always less time like now,

For the next two days, Qingyao and I were both active around here, and from time to time we paid attention to whether the people from the Ask Gate were coming. The rest of the time, we're catching hares and stuff to eat. It also gives us a short-term sense of happiness, which I still like.

"Chu Yan, Cheng Xiao, they're here." One day at noon, Qing Yao suddenly ran to my side and said.

When I heard this, I hurriedly said, "Let's go, take me to him." ”

As I spoke, I hurriedly followed Qing Yao in the direction of the hill. In a short time, I saw a group of people, forty or fifty.

"Chu Yan Daoyou." As soon as Cheng Xiao saw me, he waved at me and shouted.

After I heard the voice, I saw Cheng Xiao's figure in the middle of these people. He hasn't changed anything, he's still the same as he was a few years ago. But he has heavy dark circles on his face, and it seems that he has been in a hurry lately, otherwise he would not have been like this.

"Master Cheng, long time no see." As he spoke, he opened his arms.

After a while, Cheng Xiao and I hugged each other tightly.

The next moment, Cheng Xiao noticed Qing Yao behind me. He was very surprised, after all, when he left, Qing Yao had already followed the ghost king.

"Chu Yan, this ...... What's going on? Besides, why do you have gray hair? After Cheng Xiao let go of me, he looked at Qing Yao and then at me and said.

After hearing this, I smiled bitterly and said, "This matter is a long story, and I will explain it to you when I have a chance in the future." In short, it's good that you believe in Qing Yao, she is not a ghost king's wife. ”

"Okay, since you've said so, then I won't ask. Let's talk about your master and their affairs. Cheng Xiao looked at me and opened his mouth and said.

After hearing this, I glanced in the direction of the hill and said, "Well, my master and uncle will not be in any danger for the time being, but we can't delay any longer, we will not only rescue my master and them tonight, but also destroy the lonely souls and wild ghosts in the ghost king's place, and of course, those ghost generals." ”

"Huh? I know that your strength may have increased a lot now, but I'm afraid it's not enough for us to deal with them, and don't forget the ghost king. As for himself, we may not be able to deal with it. Cheng Xiao looked at me and said.

After hearing this, I smiled and said, "Don't worry, the ghost king is not here now." But there is still bad news, I heard that there is a place where a lot of lonely souls and wild ghosts are sealed, and the ghost king is going to find that place, we can take this opportunity to solve this place first. In addition, you have to have people hurry up and inform the other sects, if anyone has any news about that place, you must inform us, otherwise when the Ghost King releases those things, we will really not be able to return to the sky. ”

"Well, I'll get someone to inquire about the news." Saying that, Cheng Xiao turned his head and instructed the people.

A moment later, one of them walked away quickly.

"What's next?" As she spoke, Cheng Xiao turned her head to look at me and asked.

After hearing this, I glanced around and said, "Next, keep your people busy, and try to set up a magic circle around this hill before it gets dark." But there's one thing, you have to keep your men from being discovered by the ghosts, or it will be difficult to deal with them.

When we're done, let's get something to eat ourselves, or we won't have the strength to work. When it gets dark, I'll go to the top of the hill to draw out the ghosts, and when I bring them into the circle, your men will do it. And I took the opportunity to get out, and at this time, the two of us went to destroy the illusion and rescue my master and uncle by the way.

During this period, you must let your people resist, otherwise the two of us will be trapped in it if we don't break the illusion. Of course, it is better to arrange a magic circle that controls ghosts, which is also conducive to delaying time. ”

"Okay, I'll have someone set up the circle now." After speaking, Cheng Xiao turned his head again to explain the matter.

After a while, Cheng Xiao's men approached the surrounding area of the hill and began to arrange the magic circle.

I glanced around, and hurriedly took out the array flag, as well as the charm and straw.

"Master Cheng, come and be busy, leave those things to them first." I beckoned to Cheng Xiao and said.

After hearing this, Cheng Xiao ran to me and asked, "What are you doing?" ”

"Help me tie a scarecrow, just fist-sized. I'll be useful then, and deal with those things, maybe be able to delay for a while. I looked at Cheng Xiao and said.

Cheng Xiao didn't say anything more, then sat down next to me and began to stick a fist-sized scarecrow.

I took out my compass and looked around, and then followed it to the southwest. After a while, I stopped somewhere, glanced in the direction of the hill, and then looked at the sky. A moment later, I asked them to go to the nearby villages and towns as fast as they could to buy some willow stakes. I don't know if he'll be able to come back in the dark or today, because when I come back, I won't find any villages in the vicinity.

Then, I inserted the array flags into the ground in eight directions, and connected the eight array flags with red ropes, and I also put a copper coin on the red rope between the array flags. But I didn't connect all of these flags in series, but left an opening, and the direction of that opening was on the hill.

After that, I found two more planks, which I made out of a dead tree, or where else would I find them in the wilderness? Finally I put the plank in the gap. I drew a spell on the wooden board towards the side inside the circle of the flag, so that as long as the ghosts entered it, they basically couldn't get out. Unless you think about the strength of the ghost, the general ghost does not have the ability to come out.

By the time I was done, it was getting darker. Because it was a cloudy day, we could only determine the time by the brightness of the light.

"Back to ...... I'm back, I'm back. A panting voice rang out from afar.

I looked in that direction, and I could vaguely see a figure stumbling in our direction with a stake on its back. Seeing this, I hurried over to help.

When I made the stakes, I found that they were all long stakes that had been split into squares, and the bottom had been treated to look like a point. I thought to myself, this would save me a lot of work.

I took the stake and looked at the man and said, "It's hard work, you should go and rest quickly." ”

At this time, the rest of the people who set up the circle were already done, and they were all preparing food from a relatively distant place.

I carried the stakes to the front of the hill, and I inserted the four stakes into the ground in four directions: east, south, west, and north, and the stakes were about fifty paces apart. When the four stakes were placed, I found the cinnabar and the brush again and drew a charm on them. After drawing the charm, I found the red rope and threaded the copper coin, and tied a dead knot at one end and tied the other end to a stake. I did the same method for the other three stakes.

"Chu Yan, how is it on your side, everything is ready, we can eat first." Cheng Xiao's voice sounded not far away.

After hearing this, I glanced at the wooden stake, and walked towards Cheng Xiao.

"How's it going?" Cheng Xiao looked at me and asked.

I nodded and said, "Well, that's pretty much done, all you need to do is put a spell on the scarecrow and place the scarecrow at the front." ”

"That's good, it's up to you to get those things out." Cheng Xiao glanced at me and said.

I nodded, and walked over to where they were eating. There is nothing to eat, just some simple cakes, but fortunately there is still water, otherwise it would be difficult to eat it because it is too dry.

After the meal, I distributed the scarecrows to the crowd and asked them to place the scarecrows at the front of the circle. I kept some of my own, and I put the scarecrows in the circles I had set up, four in each.

"Okay, it's all ready, let's wait a little longer and do it." Cheng Xiao lay on the ground, looked at the hill in the distance and said.

I nodded and said, "Well, because this yin qi makes me wonder the time, so it's better to wait a little longer." ”

In this way, we were all looking at the hill not far away, and there was not the slightest movement in the direction of the hill. Because the place where we set up the circle is still some distance from the hill, after all, we can't let the things in there be discovered, and if they do, we will be busy in vain.

In this way, as time passed bit by bit, the hill in the distance could no longer see anything clearly.

At this time, I turned my head to look at Cheng Xiao and said, "Okay, I'll go over first, you guys are ready here, and when I attract those ghosts, you can hurry up." ”

"Don't worry, you can go." Cheng Xiao nodded and said.

I nodded, and then picked up the golden sword and walked in the direction of the hill.

As I walked near the hill, I looked around. There was still silence all around, and the hills were still bare, and there was nothing wrong with it.

The corners of my mouth rose slightly, and I pulled out three charms. I threw the spell straight ahead, and at the same time pinched a handprint, and the next moment the charm was golden, and the charm disappeared into the air in an instant. When the spell reappeared, it turned into three circular patterns, and in the center of the pattern were three beasts, and the three beasts roared in the sky, and then rushed towards the top of the hill.

When the three beasts were halfway there, it was as if they had touched something, and ripples appeared in the air. And the three beasts also emitted stronger golden rays at this time.

"Bang ......" A muffled sound sounded instantly.

As the muffled sound disappeared, the golden mangs gradually subsided, and the three beasts disappeared into the air.
