In the middle of the night, there was no trace of fireworks in the entire Yuxi Town, and on the silent street, two and a half teenagers were trembling by the cold moonlight, and a tall and fat boy walking behind him whispered to the black and thin boy in front:

"Xiao Er, I think let's go back, it's ghostly here, I'm a little scared!"

Xiao Er, who was walking in front, heard the words of the tall and fat young man, and his heart was also furious, but he seemed to have some reason to continue to move forward, and said to the young man behind him with the courage:

"Da Niu, don't be afraid, we have been to this Yuxi Town hundreds of times before, and we are counting on the two of us when we talk about Granny Li's illness. ”

The big cow behind him, who was originally bent on his waist and trembling with fright, seemed to have thought of something after hearing the words of Granny Li, and immediately straightened his chest and said:

"Xiao Er, you're right! Granny Li has taken in a few of us since she was a child, and she is so good to us, as long as she can cure her illness, I am not afraid of anything!"

Xiao Er listened to Da Niu's words, and couldn't help but look back and praise:

"Good job, big..."

It's just that he was only halfway through his words, and he paused there, with an extremely frightened expression on his face, as if he had seen something terrifying.

Seeing Xiao Er's appearance, Da Niu hurriedly followed his gaze and turned around, and after seeing the scene behind him, he was also so frightened that he couldn't speak.

It turned out that at this time, at some point behind them, they actually occupied a person with a cloak, to be precise, this can no longer be said to be a person!

I saw that the man had several deep scars on his body, but the man seemed to be unaware, and what was even more terrifying was that the man's face, almost no intact flesh and skin, scarlet eyes and two sharp fangs, escaped a demon alive.

Xiao Er reacted quickly, and directly pulled up the big bull who was still stunned on the spot, and ran wildly forward, but before the two of them ran a few steps, dozens of monsters like the person just now walked out of the street in front of them, blocking their way forward.

At this time, those monsters obviously found the two of them, and kept screaming at the two of them that did not look like humans, and as these roars came out, more monsters came out of the shops and alleys on both sides of the street.

Looking at the monsters gathering more and more, a trace of despair appeared in the eyes of both of them, but the young man's enthusiasm was hot, and both of them coincidentally found two wooden planks from the front of the store next to them for self-defense.

"Da Niu, I didn't expect this haunted thing in Yuxi Town to be true, it seems that today you and my brothers are going to feed these evil ghosts, but this time it has affected you!"

"Xiao Er, what are you talking about, my big bull came voluntarily!"

Da Niu, who has always been stupid, has an unusually clear mind at this time, and he is holding a wooden board in his hand and standing back to back with Xiao Er.

As the monsters who didn't recognize ghosts and ghosts gradually approached, and the two were about to fight desperately, a young man's voice suddenly came from the roof of the shop next to them:

"Is this a corpse demon? Why can't you feel much spiritual power?"

At the same time as this voice came out, there were already several huge fireballs falling from the sky, instantly burning those terrifying monsters to ashes, and to the surprise of Xiao Er and Da Niu, in such a terrifying fireball, the two of them were unscathed.

The one who just rescued the two of them was naturally Ye Xiu, who had just arrived in Yuxi Town, and soon after he entered the town, he saw the scene just now, and when he heard the conversation between the two of them, he rescued the two of them.

Xiao Er and Da Niu, although they didn't know Taoism, they naturally knew that Ye Xiu was a cultivator, and the two hurriedly thanked Ye Xiu, who had come down from the roof at this time.

After Ye Xiu had a brief conversation with the two, he learned that the two of them had been orphans since they were children, and they were adopted by a woman named Granny Li who lived not far from Yuxi Town.

Granny Li is kind-hearted, kind to people, and very good to the two of them, but unfortunately not long ago, Granny Li unfortunately contracted a cold, which was not a difficult disease, but Granny Li gave all the money to a poor child like Xiang Xiaoer on weekdays, and she almost had no savings, and she couldn't afford to buy medicine for the treatment of cold.

Among this group of children, the biggest grade is Xiao Er and Da Niu, Xiao Er is clever on weekdays, and I heard people nearby say that Yuxi Town is haunted, and the people in the town are missing and missing, walking, running, and running has become an empty town, and it is the idea of taking the opportunity to steal something in the town in exchange for money and buy medicine.

After listening to what happened to the two, Ye Xiu was also very sympathetic, so he took out a bag of lower grade spirit stones from his arms and said:

"These spirit stones should be enough for you to buy medicine for Granny Li, it's too dangerous here now, hurry up and take the spirit stones and leave through the west exit." ”

The two of them were very grateful when they took the spirit stone, and they were very grateful to Ye Xiu, and when they were leaving, the lively little two said to Ye Xiu:

"Presumably, the seniors must have come to investigate the secrets of this town this time, right? If so, you can go to the old ancestral hall in the east of the town to check it out, and listen to the people who ran out of the town, and it is from there that the haunted things were first reported. ”

Ye Xiu also didn't expect that the two people he inadvertently saved would provide him with an important clue, although this Yuxi Town is not big, it is extremely troublesome to rely on his own door-to-door investigation, so Ye Xiu went straight to the old ancestral hall in the east of the town.

The road was full of the kind of human-like monsters that roamed around, but Ye Xiu found that although these monsters looked terrifying, their strength was extremely low, except that they were difficult to kill, they were almost no different from normal people.

But the more Ye Xiu walked, the more frightened he became, because on the road after that, he never saw a living person again, which means that except for a few people who escaped, the people in the entire town were turned into this kind of monster, who was so vicious and killed so many people!

When he came to the ancestral hall not far away, he saw a fire coming from it, Ye Xiu performed a hidden star technique, and after hiding his breath, he quietly approached the ancestral hall, and faintly heard someone talking in it:

"It's really bad luck to stay in this hellish place every day!"

"Shhhh ”

"Oh, how do you know?"

"Yesterday, I heard from the brother who guarded the medicine garden that the Xuanyin grass in the medicine garden has been collected by the deacon, it seems that the corpse has been refined!"

"It's a corpse demon! So Lao Tzu, I can go to Yichun Courtyard to see my Xiaohong in a few days!"

"You guy knows Xiaohong, I think you will die on a woman sooner or later!"

Hearing the conversation between the two, Ye Xiu was sure in his heart, this time it was really not in vain, it seemed that someone was really cultivating Xuanyin Grass here, and using the people in the town to refine the corpse demon.

The cultivation of these two guards is only in the second-grade Taoist realm, but because he didn't know what the cultivation of the great elder the two of them was, not to mention that there was a corpse demon, Ye Xiu decided not to startle the snake first, but continued to sneak into the interior of the ancestral hall.

To Ye Xiu's surprise, the ancestral hall in this town was extremely huge, and it was divided into two layers of courtyards, and after quietly passing through the wide outer courtyard, Ye Xiu entered the inner courtyard.

There were two other guards of the second-grade Taoist realm in the inner courtyard, but with their cultivation, they couldn't detect Ye Xiu's existence at all, and Ye Xiu directly bypassed them and entered the ancestral hall.

To Ye Xiu's surprise, there was nothing unusual in the ancestral hall except for some regular sacrificial things, but this did not stump Ye Xiu, according to his inference, there should be some secret room in this ancestral hall.

So Ye Xiu quietly released his divine sense, carefully probed every corner of this ancestral hall, and sure enough, he found that on the tribute platform, the edge of one of the four candlesticks actually had obvious wear marks, which must have been caused by being touched by people all year round.

So Ye Xiu held his hand on the stone platform, and tried to turn it gently, and sure enough, there was a hidden bracket under the candlestick, and with a soft click, a dark downward tunnel appeared behind the shrine in the middle of the ancestral hall.

As soon as the mouth of the tunnel opened, a smell of corruption and blood came to his face, Ye Xiu just frowned, and continued to dive.

The tunnel is unexpectedly long, and it keeps bending and spiraling down, although there will be a torch lighting every ten zhang distance, but the whole tunnel still looks eerie!

After sneaking for about five or six hundred zhang, Ye Xiu finally heard the voice of someone talking in front of him, speaking an old man, his voice was extremely hoarse and harsh, and he was only heard sneering:

"Shen Yuehai, Shen Yuehai, back then, you wanted to go against my Xiao family with a little talent, but now you have been trained to be a corpse demon, and you are not obediently used by my Xiao family!"

In just a few short sentences, Ye Xiu deduced a lot of information from it, it seems that in Yuxi Town, it was the Xiao family who secretly created the corpse demon, and the person who was made into a corpse demon turned out to be Shen Yuehai, the former head of the Shen family who had been missing for many years!

You must know that this corpse demon is an evil thing, although the major sects of the White Tiger Domain are not very rejecting the evil way, but such a large-scale slaughter of mortals is also a taboo for the major sects, this Xiao family is really bold!

At this time, I heard a middle-aged man's voice flattering:

"Great Elder, what you said is right! This Shen family doesn't weigh how many catties and taels they have, and they dare to go against my Xiao family everywhere, I heard that the old immortal of the Shen family is about to end his life, and when the time comes, we will destroy them in one fell swoop!"

"Hmph! Why wait until that time, now that we have this corpse demon of the first-grade Daoist realm, the old man alone can slaughter the Shen family! It's you, as the deacon of the outer gate of the Xiao family, you can't even look at the blood food of a few mortals, and they ran out, and now the people in the entire Yuxi Town have been infected by blood food and turned into walking corpses, I'm afraid that soon the Heavenly Dao Sect will send someone to investigate!"

"Great Elder, what you taught me is that the little one must discipline the people below well next time, but you don't have to worry, now that the corpse demon has become a corpse, I have already killed all those blood foods yesterday, and the Xuanyin grass in the medicine garden has also been collected, just wait for a fire tomorrow to burn this place clean, no one can find us!"

As he spoke, he also handed over a storage ring to the old man!
