Chapter 0273: Looking for Ghosts on a Rainy Night
There are some things, the authorities are confused, the bystanders are clear, Xu Shu can't see clearly, but Wang Min sees it in his eyes, and it can be seen from Xu Hong's actions and expressions that Xu Hong likes his brother Xu Shu very much, and even that emotion has surpassed liking, beyond the emotion of his sister liking his brother, that is love.

Helpless, it's just that Xu Shu doesn't know yet.
After a period of intenseness, the ancient town fell into silence again, Xu Hong's figure had turned to the street behind the stone bridge, Wang Min had also gotten off the stone bridge, and Xu Shu had to step towards them.
Under the dim light, in the rain curtain, the light reflected on the smooth stone pavement that was trampled by people coming and going, Xu Shu caught up with Xu Hong and Wang Min, and the three walked forward side by side.
Xu Hong held her small compass in her hand, but the result was still the same as before, the pointer on the compass always pointed north and south, which was not only invalid for Jiang Jun, but also for Hu Daoren.
Since Xu Shu and the three of them cleaned up the ancient town, there was suddenly no other ghost shadow, and it suddenly disappeared, as if it was swept away by something, but in fact, when Xu Shu cleaned up the ancient town last time, he didn't completely clean up the wandering ghosts.
In the case that the compass can't indicate the direction of the ghost, the only thing that can be used as an indication is the ghost ornament on Xu Shu's chest, and a few people pay attention to the movement on the ghost ornament from time to time.
Wandering, except for the sound of rain, dripping water, and water flowing, there was no other sound, relatively quiet, Wang Min walked and suddenly asked Xu Shu: "Daoist Xu, what kind of treasure is hanging under your neck." ”
Xu Shu smiled, he didn't intend to tell the truth, the less people knew about this magic weapon, the better, otherwise it wouldn't cause so much trouble, if it wasn't discovered by Wang Daoquan, maybe Hu Daoren didn't know, and the black hand behind the scenes was not sure, but he guessed that it was in the hands of his father Xu Yi.
"Nothing special, it's just a magic weapon." As a Taoist priest, such an explanation can be justified.
Sure enough, Wang Min didn't doubt that the ornament was a magic weapon, but this magic weapon was too powerful, and he had a hint of envy: "It's really a good magic weapon, it can measure the distance of ghosts, at least when it's very close." ”
Xu Shu smiled and nodded: "Actually, there are many such magic weapons, but you don't have them yet." ”
Xu Shu is right, it seems that there are really many magic weapons that can determine ghosts, such as bronze mirrors, in the irradiation of the copper mirror, ghosts have nowhere to hide, and they must be revealed, such as a compass, which can point to the direction of ghosts, and some magic weapons.
Of course, this kind of magic weapon is rare, and if you get it, it is also fate.
A few whispered chatter, and suddenly Xu Hong stopped, his eyes fixed on Xu Shu's chest, and the ghost ornament on Xu Shu's chest was shining brightly, very faint.
"Daoist Xu, there is light!" Wang Min exclaimed, and several of them stopped.
Xu Shu glanced down, and the ghost ornament really had a glow.
Xu Shuyi stopped, and just saw the light on the ghost ornament, and in the blink of an eye, the light disappeared, indicating that there were ghosts around and were moving away from them.
There must not be the direction you just came from, otherwise the ghost ornament would have already shone brightly, only the ghost in front of you, or on both sides.
Xu Shu observed the environment he was in, flanked by white-walled and black-tiled houses, and the only feasible way was ahead, so he said, "Let's move forward, hurry up!" ”
Xu Shu and the three of them accelerated their steps and walked forward, and sure enough, after a few steps, the ghost ornament lit up again, and as Xu Shu's steps forward, it became brighter and brighter, but the speed was very slow.
"He's on the run, let's hurry!" Xu Shu noticed that the ghosts in front of him had also noticed them and were gradually moving away from them, and they had to speed up their pace, otherwise they would flee away.
The footsteps hit the waterlogged stone pavement with a crisp clicking sound, and one of the hurried footsteps was more messy, which was caused by Wang Min's panicked footsteps.
The things ahead are unknown, Xu Shu doesn't know, Wang Min doesn't know, but as long as the ancient town has been cleaned up by Xu Shu three times, what can stay is definitely not good, and it is definitely not idle.
The light on the ghost ornament became brighter and brighter, gradually turning red, and Xu Shu also felt the heat emitted by the ghost ornament, so he said, "It's close, hurry up!" ”
Xu Shu said, his pace quickened, and he rushed forward at great speed.
Xu Shu, who was born with a pair of yin and yang eyes, suddenly stopped, stood at the intersection of the corner of the street towards the waterway, slowly turned around, and on the shore of the waterway, next to the stone-built embankment, a shadow was standing.
Xu Hong and Wang Min turned their heads with Xu Shu, and a black shadow also appeared in their sight, facing away from them, standing still, as if they were watching the waterway in the rain, and as if they were waiting for someone.
"That's him!" Whether it is a person or a ghost, Xu Shu will not forget the back of the Hu Dao man, that black shadow is the undead Hu Dao man.
"Daoist Xu, do it, catch him!" Wang Min was anxious, and he was helpless to fear the enemy of Hu Daoren, but he also held a peachwood sword in his hand to deal with it.
Xu Shu shook his head and said softly: "Huang Fu is not on him, he has already escaped the control of others, even if it is difficult to make people difficult, it is the instinct of ghosts, and it will not be so terrible that it will kill people." ”
Xu Shu was already sure of Hu Daoren at this time, as a ghost, he was indeed powerful, and Hu Daoren was also a powerful character as a ghost, but he was sure that he could suppress him.
Xu Shu took a step forward and waved his hand for Xu Hong and Wang to follow, and the three of them slowly leaned towards the black shadow standing on the shore.
In the dim light, the drizzle falling was clearly visible, creating layers of rain curtains between them and the ghosts, there was a hint of haze, but the Hu Daoren was dressed in black, and his back was still clear.
The footsteps were gentle, and the sound of feet stepping on stagnant water suddenly disappeared, only the sound of drizzling and moisturizing things, everything was natural.
Therefore, Hu Daoren did not notice the movement behind him, and stared at the slowly flowing water in the waterway.
But the ghost is a ghost in the end, instinct surpasses the living, and the brightness and wisdom cannot be compared with people, and the nonsense people still found the abnormality behind him and slowly turned his head.
"Ahh Wang Min took a breath of cool air, and said to Xu Shu with fear in his words.
Xu Shu nodded: "It's okay, put away your peachwood sword." ”
Xu Shu's words made Wang Min startled, putting away the peach wood sword was equivalent to seeing a ghost completely empty-handed, and the danger factor increased sharply, but seeing that Xu Shu was very calm, Wang Min still put away the peach wood sword, of course, just put the peach wood sword behind him, and didn't show it directly to Hu Daoren.
"Nonsense, I haven't seen you for a long time, I don't want to meet in this form." Xu Shu looked at Hu Daoren, his appearance was the same as when he was alive, it seemed that he died peacefully.
Hu Daoren pursed his lips and smiled, looked at Xu Shu and Xu Hong and Wang Min beside him, and then replied: "If you want to trick me, I won't tell you casually, it's all because of you that I became like this." ”
