Chapter 23: The Evil Way
Night!
It's still the same small courtyard, and the walls are still full of torches, and the small courtyard is bright.
At this moment, in the courtyard, a middle-aged Taoist man in his forties stood with his hands in his hands, the courtyard door was tightly closed, and there was no one nearby, so the middle-aged Taoist finally didn't have to disguise anymore, his face showed a trace of pride, and the joy of imminent success.
The middle-aged Taoist is named Xu Gui, who has returned, and has just turned forty this year, if he is only from the appearance, even if he is not dignified, he will not make people think that he is a bad person at a glance, but in fact, he has done a lot of things like seeking money and killing people, and oppressing the good.
Even the female ghost he raised at the moment was the family he brutally killed the woman, and then tortured the woman to death, and the resentment broke out, which was formed, and then he was enslaved by the means of ghost control and became his accomplice.
And this kind of thing, Xu Gui has done at least three or five times, but only succeeded once, this time he was passing by the town, and by chance he found that there was a pure yin qi wandering in this backyard, so he quietly commanded the female ghost to come in to check the situation.
When he saw Nian Nu'er, he was immediately ecstatic, a ghost thing like Nian Nu'er who did not lose his sanity was a rare and superb thing, and it had a strong growth potential, even if he evolved into a ghost king in the future, it was not impossible.
And a ghost king, even if it is not enough for him to dominate the world, can become a supreme master, and when the time comes, whether it is power, wealth, or beauty, he will be allowed to take it away, and he can even do whatever he wants without caring about the laws of the world.
Xu Gui was originally a scholar, with lofty ambitions, but he didn't work hard, always thinking about opportunism, until he failed repeatedly, he repented, but his so-called repentance was not to sink down and study the article hard, but to scatter his family wealth and exchange a volume of Taoism from the hands of a Taoist priest.
That method is about the art of resisting ghosts, and it is strange to say, he has no achievements in reading and learning, but he is actually a genius of cultivation, in just a few years, the volume of Taoism has been thoroughly eaten by him, and the art of resisting ghosts has become more and more proficient.
It's just that, although he learned the Tao, his nature has not changed, not only does he not use it to do good deeds, but he begins to think about how to harm people, and with this means, his wealth accumulates more and more, and finally, he begins to be no longer satisfied, and begins to think about the more powerful ghosts of the imperial envoy.
That's why I have this female ghost around me now, but unfortunately, although this female ghost is powerful, but because he was tortured too hard, it led to a mental collapse, only the simplest consciousness, and even the growth space is very limited, until he found Nian Nu'er.
At that time, he swore that no matter what method he used, he would definitely get Nian Nu'er, this kind of madness even made him not hesitate to destroy everything, even the entire Su family.
It's just that after all, the Su family is big, and there are a lot of guards, and if you want to destroy the Su family, I'm afraid it's not easy, and it's easy to have accidents, so after the female ghost failed to capture it several times, he finally began to calculate the Su family.
His calculations proved to be successful, and although some time was wasted, as long as it could be successful, it was all worth it.
At the beginning, he didn't jump out, mainly because he was afraid of making the Su family suspicious, his original plan was to wait for the Su family to be helpless, and then come in a savior posture, but he didn't expect that before he jumped out, a Mu Yi suddenly appeared, and this Mu Yi is not an ordinary swaggering Taoist, but has some real skills.
This can be seen from the fact that most of the yin qi on the old lady of the Su family has been cleared.
After realizing this, Xu Gui was also taken aback, and even felt a little glad in his heart, fortunately, Na Mu Yi's ability was almost good, otherwise I am afraid that he would really be ruined by him.
However, he also found out the details of Mu Yi from Zheng Zicong, knowing that Mu Yi was not very old and lived on Funiu Mountain.
After knowing this, Xu Gui had an idea in his heart, he only exchanged a scroll of Taoism from the hand of the Taoist priest, but with this volume of Taoism, he came to this day, he wanted to continue to cultivate, but there was no suitable cultivation method, for so many years, he also kept looking for it, but he never caught his eye.
And that Mu Yi was so young and already so powerful, thinking that he must have a profound Dao method on his body, and even a treasure, this was undoubtedly in his arms, so he decided to go to Mu Yi after catching Nian Nu'er, and then forced him to ask for the Dao Method.
The more Xu Gui thought about it, the more the smile on his face grew, if it wasn't for the wrong place, he would probably have laughed out loud.
Because his mood at the moment is so happy, and there is even an unprecedented excitement, which is stronger than the first time he visited the Qinglou, and much more violent than the first time he killed people and the first time he resisted ghosts.
Behind Xu Gui, an illusory figure stood in the air, and her appearance could be vaguely seen, although it was not as good as Su Yingying, but she also looked delicate and lovely, wearing a white dress with long hair fluttering, but her face was dull and motionless.
After a long time, Xu Guiyi put away the excitement on his face, and set his eyes on the bamboo forest in front of him, because of the art of resisting ghosts, he was more sensitive to ghosts and yin qi, and in the entire courtyard, only this bamboo forest had the heaviest yin qi.
And he also saw at a glance that this bamboo forest is not simple, at this time, the bamboo can still grow so green, it is obviously a little abnormal, and even these bamboos are not ordinary bamboos, but a kind of cold bamboo, which can also be called yin bamboo.
"Come out, how long do you think you'll be able to hide?" Xu Gui looked at the bamboo forest and said loudly.
However, after his words fell, in addition to the thunderclapping sound of the strong torches burning around him, there was only the sound of bamboo leaves shaking and intertwining with each other.
"Hmph, do you think you can escape by hiding?" Seeing this, Xu Gui snorted coldly directly, and then commanded without looking back: "Let me in and force her out." ”
Xu Gui's words fell, and the female ghost standing behind him suddenly moved, like a phantom, and disappeared in a flash, entering the bamboo forest.
Subsequently, the yin qi in the bamboo forest was stirred, and then there were violent fluctuations, and Xu Gui always stood calmly in place, although he was extremely eager for Nian Nu'er, but he would not take risks easily, at worst, it was cautious, but it was actually a manifestation of fear of death.
And even if the female ghost can't defeat Nian Nu'er and the big ghost, it's no problem to force them out.
Sure enough, a few minutes later, a phantus took the lead in jumping out of the bamboo forest, followed by two shadows, it was Nian Nu'er and her mother.
Xu Gui's eyes shone brightly, and his hands were unconsciously clenched together.
