The old Taoist priest sighed lightly, closed his eyes and shook his head helplessly, "Hey, it would be nice if it was like what you said." ”

"Huh? Didn't I guess right? ”

Xiaobao looked at the old Taoist priest in disbelief, scratching his face, looking very confused: "If that monster is not subdued by you, and it is not run away by him, then is there any other result?" ”

The old Taoist priest smiled bitterly when he heard this: "Yes, of course there is, you stinky boy don't always interrupt, let's listen to me first." ”

"Uh-huh."

Xiaobao covered his mouth tightly with both hands, and the chick nodded desperately like pecking rice, for fear of interrupting the old Taoist priest's speech, so he had to make a humming sound from his nostrils in response.

The old Taoist priest looked at the bright starry sky with far-reaching eyes, as if recalling an extremely unbearable past.

"After I was sprayed by that monster, I suddenly felt that the meridians of my whole body were blocked, and even the mana was suppressed.

You must know that mana is the housekeeping skill and life-saving weapon of our cultivators, if once the mana is suppressed, when we encounter an extremely strong opponent, then the result is self-evident.

Lao Dao, I was completely more frightened than curious about the monster, and I just thought that I should not let the monster take this old life, so I used the escape secret technique at the bottom of the box and began to run all the way in embarrassment.

Maybe I had completely angered the monster before, causing him to chase after me, so that I didn't even have a chance to breathe.

In the dark night, I was aimlessly messing around, and it was okay to say for a while, but after a long time, my old bones couldn't stand it anymore, and in the end I had no choice but to grit my teeth and turn over and fight with that monster. ”

Speaking of this, the old Taoist priest's brows were already twisted, and he sighed heavily, before he said unwillingly: "But who knows that even if I fight hard and use up my last bit of strength, I will eventually be seriously injured and killed." ”

"Huh?! Death from serious injuries? ”

Xiaobao's eyes widened in surprise, as if he was looking at a monster, and stared at the old Taoist priest: "Then you are now... People in the end? Still is... Or what? ”

Originally, Xiaobao wanted to say, are you a human or a ghost, but considering that saying this might upset the old Taoist, he had to be vague halfway through the words.

And the old Taoist priest didn't seem to care much about this, he lightly frowned and changed to the relaxed face he had before, winked at Xiaobao, and said lightly: "Don't worry, I'm not a ghost, I'm just a wisp of remnant soul now." ”

Hearing the old Taoist priest say that he was not a ghost, Xiaobao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but he was quite puzzled by a wisp of remnant soul, so he asked softly what the remnant soul meant.

The old Taoist priest told him that the remnant soul refers to the meaning of the soul being isolated after death, which can also be called a lonely soul.

However, the old Taoist priest is a person who practices Taoism, and he relied on the power of Taoism to protect this remnant soul, and finally hid it in the picture scroll, so that his soul could not be dispersed.

After explaining the matter of the remnant soul to Xiaobao, the old Taoist priest brought up the spirit talisman that sealed the yellow skin again.

He said, not to mention that my wisp of remnant soul mana is limited, and I am always facing the problem of being found a hiding place by the difficult monster before, and if I don't get it right, my soul will be scattered.

If that misfortune really comes, no one can stop the yellow skin in this rune paper, and it will be a disaster for you people.

After listening to the old Taoist priest, Xiaobao only felt cold sweat, but he didn't expect that a yellow skin that Brother Wang Tao inadvertently injured was so powerful.

Wang Tao, a stunned young man, is just unlucky, who would have wanted to make trouble to the end, and it may affect Grandma Sun, Xiaomei and his lives.

As soon as he thought of this, Xiaobao was sullen and hurriedly asked the old Taoist priest if there was any good way to solve this matter.

The old Taoist priest smiled bitterly and said, "Didn't I already say it before? For the time being, you can only set up a tablet for this yellow skin, and you have to burn incense and worship it during the New Year's holidays, otherwise you can casually curse you people to death with the strong resentment of the yellow skin. ”

Ay!

Xiaobao sighed in his heart, Brother Wang Tao, a stunned young man, always does stupid things, and it is always us irrelevant people who wipe his ass afterwards, it's really troublesome: yes! I haven't solved the matter of being hit by Gu yet, and there is another yellow-skinned ancestor for no reason, and I have to honestly offer it during the New Year's holidays.

Thinking helplessly, who knew that the old Taoist priest said a bad news that caught him off guard.

Xiao Bao raised his head suddenly, only to hear the old Taoist priest say solemnly, Tu Grain Village has now been shrouded in a strange formation, and there is a formation enchantment around the village that ordinary people can't see with the naked eye, and people from outside can't get in, and they can't get out.

Hearing this, Xiaobao couldn't help but ask the old Taoist priest if he knew the way to get out of the village.

The old Taoist priest told him with a sad brow, saying that whether they could get out of Tuli Village or not depended on personal chance, and they could find a way out in the village on their own.

No way? Relying on personal chance to find a way out? Doesn't that mean you didn't say the same?

Xiaobao was about to continue to ask, but the old Taoist priest didn't even say hello, and suddenly dissipated out of thin air under his nose.

That night, when Xiaobao and his party had just returned to their hut, lightning and thunder suddenly thundered in the sky, and it didn't take long for a heavy rain to fall.

Because she was always worried about Xiaomei's safety, Xiaobao couldn't help but ask Grandma Sun where Xiaomei was now.

If she can't get Xiaomei's whereabouts from her mouth, Xiaobao's heart will be like a big stone, she can't eat or sleep well, and she feels that the whole person is like a walking corpse.

However, Granny Sun did not answer Xiaobao's question at the first time, she first made a silent gesture on her lips, and then suddenly raised her head and stared at the roof, and there was a faint sneer on the corner of her mouth.

Just when Xiaobao was a little surprised, Granny Sun quickly took out a few silver needles from her arms and threw them out of the roof casually.

"Ahh

An exclamation followed by a few muffled sounds, and everything was quiet again.

At this time, Granny Sun couldn't help but say to herself: "What a cunning guy, if I hadn't been vigilant, I wouldn't have been able to follow your way." ”

It was only then that Xiaobao suddenly understood that someone was eavesdropping on them on the rooftop just now, and asked Grandma Sun who that person was just now.

Granny Sun coughed heavily, "If I guessed correctly, I guess it was the man in black who did it." ”

Wu took a selfie on his chest, took a breath, and then continued: "Didn't you just ask where Xiaomei is?" ”

Xiaobao was stunned, reacted and nodded desperately: "Mmmmmmmmmm ”

Seeing that Xiaobao cared so much about Xiaomei, Grandma Sun showed an imperceptible faint smile on her wrinkled old face: "I said she was fine, she must be fine, since you care about her so much, then I will tell you the truth." ”

Xiaobao stretched his neck and didn't speak, just quietly waiting for Grandma Sun to continue.

Grandma Sun sat on a Taishi chair and said expressionlessly: "The Tuli Village where we are located has been arranged with a formation, this formation is very peculiar, it can make people get lost in the village and find no way out, as for Xiaomei, she is trapped in a corner of the village and can't get out." ”

"Then we...."Xiaobao was anxious when he heard this, and just after saying a few words, he was interrupted by Grandma Sun waving her hand: "Don't worry, listen to me first." ”

"Oh."

Xiaobao nodded aggrievedly, and felt sad in his heart: I don't know how Xiaomei is now? She must be hungry, right? Isn't it tiring? Where does she rest at night? It's raining so hard outside, does she have a place to shelter?

A series of questions filled Xiaobao's entire head, causing his mood to drop instantly, and he was not in the mood to listen to Grandma Sun.

Seeing this, Granny Sun couldn't help but smile indifferently: "Xiaomei, she is very safe, because I gave her a Juyang jade pendant before, and with that jade pendant on the side, I can sense that Xiaomei's breath is very stable, which is a sign that everything is safe." ”

"Mother-in-law, why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Xiaobao's eyes lit up, and he smirked and touched his head: "Hey, hey, hey." ”

Seeing Xiaobao's stupid appearance, Granny Sun couldn't help but purse her lips and chuckle, "I wanted to tell you earlier, isn't it for fear that the people who are spying on us will overhear it, and it will be bad for Xiaomei!" ”

Xiaobao smirked to himself for a while, and suddenly found that there was a lot more white hair on the top of Grandma Sun's head recently, and she felt a little sad for a while, and said with red eyes: "I'm sorry mother-in-law, I'm too stupid to share your worries and solve problems, and I haven't even won a puppet like Fan Blind, it's really embarrassing for you." ”

"You can't be blamed for that."

Granny Sun got up from her chair and staggered to him: "Over the past few days, there have been too many strange things that have happened one after another, so that I really have no skills, and I don't have much time to guide you personally, and you have never been able to calm down and practice the Tao because of these trivial matters. ”

After a pause, he said as if with emotion: "Hey! It seems that this matter cannot be delayed any longer, or my mantle will be lost. ”

Although what Grandma Sun said was reasonable, Xiaobao still felt very depressed in his heart, and the recent successive setbacks made him really unacceptable.

Granny Sun patted him on the shoulder: "Temporary failure doesn't mean anything, because you are still young and have a lot of time to improve your strength, which should not be something you worry about now."

Besides, your talent is obviously much stronger than me at the same time, and my mother-in-law is a woman, so there are some secret techniques that you can't practice to the peak no matter how hard you try.

As my heir, you must have faith beyond me, can you do that? ”

Xiao Bao nodded firmly, and his eyes regained a sparkling brilliance: "Well, mother-in-law, don't worry, I will definitely work hard to practice the Dao Fa and never disgrace you!" ”
