How can she hide her troubles. Maybe he didn't notice it because he was embarrassed for a while, but then he learned the truth of the matter. It's just that he still hasn't let go of the people related to the wedding, in his paranoid heart, those who talk to him about this marriage, do this marriage with him, and don't take good care of his bride are part of the humiliation he endured, so everyone has to pay off his debts!
At that time, he hadn't yet refined into a ghost Gu, but he had only paid attention to it when he was studying ancient witchcraft, because the death of that bride had stimulated him to decide to refine this terrible Gu technique. He first secretly changed the bride's corpse to keep her newly dead and her soul would not leave, and then manipulated many of his 'enemies' to jump off the cliff in their sleep, and used their corpses for Gu refining, and only after refining the ghost Gu did it descend to the bride's body, so that even if she became a ghost, she could not get rid of him!
Awu had been hiding for a long time before, but although others couldn't find her, Guan Zheng did. He didn't kill her, he wanted her to suffer the same pain and unwillingness as him in her lifetime. He gave her a strange Gu, so that her whole body could not be touched by a little heat or a trace of sunlight, as long as she lived, she would stay in a dark corner like a worm, and spend her days and days alone, drinking blood, even if she died, she was a lonely ghost!
He also said: Never let Ah Wu see his face, otherwise he will make her a 'Gu person', become a tool for him to hurt others, and be enslaved by him forever!
So Ah Wu stayed in the depths of this dense forest like a wild man for decades, unable to go home, unable to talk to people, unable to enjoy all the things of normal people, until today she decided to get rid of this endless punishment and face her own sins back then.
She confessed everything to Ruan Zhan and begged Ruan Zhan to save her. Death is terrible, but living in despair and intense self-condemnation is even more painful. So Ruan Zhan asked her to guard the position due north of the quadrangle, and worked out a method of rounding him up through the information she provided about Guan Zheng.
But when she faced Guan Zheng, she was still frightened and hesitated because of Jiwei, thanks to Wanli's words, she once again strengthened her determination to seek liberation, let go of all fears, and no longer wavered in her heart.
Die! Guan Zheng is dead, except for the ghost Gu, everyone who has been tricked by him will be liberated! Even if not, at least she atoned for her sins!
And another unstable factor in this quadrangular array is the female ghost guarding the exit due west.
Being able to invite her was Wanli's idea, and the reason why Wanli was so blessed and thought of such a powerful helper was because of the story he told Xiao Xia back then, and the past events inspired him.
If Awu did something wrong because of jealousy, this female ghost went astray because of doting. It's just that she was lucky to have a chance to change her life - she was taken by the Bao family and his son to the mountains to cultivate, and to do good deeds and accumulate virtue for those who died in vain, so as to bless them in the next life!
She is the mother of the strange baby, the Duan Jin who cultivates the eyes of yin and yang!
Originally, Ruan Zhan was reluctant to do this. Because his father and Bao Datong's father had an agreement, each would help each other's children, but Uncle Bao had fulfilled his promise ten years ago, and his father had passed away and could no longer help Bao Datong.
But Wan Li thought that they were just looking for Duan Jin to help, not to ask the Bao family and his son to go out. In addition, Guan Zheng has harmed countless people, if she does her part to get rid of him, it will be considered a great merit for Duan Jin, and it will also be a great good thing for her.
So, Ruan Zhan quietly invited Duan Jinzhen to guard the west. Although Duan Jin agreed with Uncle Bao's affirmation, she still hated Ruan Zhan and Wan Li. Although she has been cultivating for ten years, she is a mother, and she has lost her child, no matter how bad the child is, but after all, it is her only one.
Therefore, she will only do what she promised - not to let Guan Zheng escape, cooperate with the other three parties guarding the formation, and she will never care about other things. Assuming that Ruan Zhan can't withstand the pressure of Guan Zheng and let this formation be broken from other directions, she won't care about the life or death of these two men, and it is already a blessing not to step on it!
The trouble is that the geomorphological features of this small valley are exactly the same as the valley where they suffered the disaster back then, even the small waterfall and waterhole are the same, if Duan Jin touches the scene and strikes back, Ruan Zhan and them will definitely die!
After ten years of cultivation, her yin and yang eyes have become more powerful, although this is beneficial to the round-up of Guan Zheng, but if she stands on the opposite side of them, it will be a big disaster!
Not only that, in the repeated drama fights, the main thing is that Ruan Zhan is fighting against Guan Zheng, whose strength is far superior to his own, and he is struggling to support along the way, only by virtue of his wisdom and courage can he break Guan Zheng's several magic weapons in the weakness, although the opponent's strength has been greatly weakened and the advantage has been gained, but Ruan Zhan is also injured, and his physical strength is almost to the limit.
On the surface, it seems that they forced Guan Zheng into the real quadrangle, so that he could not escape and had the upper hand, but in fact, this is also forcing them to a life-and-death duel with Guan Zheng, and they can't take a step back, because retreat means death!
"Battle!" Ruan Zhan's voice broke the dangerous silence in the valley.
At this moment, the moon quietly stepped out of the thick clouds and hung high above this small valley, and the cold light poured down, witnessing the battle that was about to begin.
Xiao Xia looked at Ruan Zhan uneasily, and saw that he had regained his feet from the short respite, holding the bloodwood sword and pointing directly at Guan Zheng, although his face was pale, he was calm and resolute.
He's the same cold as a knife again!
She thought to herself, she didn't feel nervous at such a critical juncture, and her heart was all tied to Ji Zhan's body. Although he was in a square array with a side length of fifty or sixty meters, he could see the most subtle expression on his face because he had been spotted by Ruan Zhan with runic water in advance.
I saw that his lips were pursed, there was a blood stain on his straight nose, a pair of eyes were shining, and he stared at Guan Zheng for a moment, with a look of victory, so that Xiao Xia understood the sentence in an instant-the brave wins when they meet on a narrow road!
He has unparalleled courage, then he will definitely be able to defeat the other party, not to mention that it is just a small Guan Zheng, even whoever comes!
Echoing Ruan Zhan, Wan Li replied, took out a piece of rune paper from the stack of rune papers pressed on the bluestone, and immediately threw it into the incense burner in front of him. This is used to activate the formation, and although it is different from the spell drawn on the four walls during the Octagonal Tower, the effect is the same. Ruan Zhan said: Setting up a formation and casting spells must be adapted to local conditions.
As soon as the charm was put into the incense burner without any fire, it immediately 'soared' and burned, and the people present only felt an abnormal flow of air around them, knowing that the real square array had been opened, and from this moment on, no one would be able to get out unless the formation was broken or the people who set up the formation withdrew!
Seeing that the array had been activated, he immediately threw two more charms into the incense burner according to the prior agreement, and then held the rough wooden sword in his left hand and the wooden stick in his right hand, and stood beside the incense burner with a serious expression, observing the movements of Guan Zheng in the center of the quadrant.
Seeing that Guan Zheng didn't dare to be careless, he stood intently for a few seconds, as if to discern the direction of the wind, and then sneered, and suddenly threw the black wooden stick he had been holding into the air, and at the same time a string of incantations came out of his mouth.
He spoke the local language of the ethnic minorities, which no one could understand, and all eyes were focused on Awu. But seeing her puzzled face, she obviously didn't know what kind of magic weapon this black wooden stick Guan Zheng cultivated.
The black wooden stick was thrown into the air and did not fall, it was so high in the air, it was extremely strange. What's even more bizarre is that this solid wooden stick, which is only two feet long, actually spews black smoke outward, and I don't know where the smoke comes from!
"Poison smoke, be careful!" Ruan Zhan shouted again.
Although this array is guarded by all sides, everything must be under his command.
As soon as he spoke, he drew a charm on his eyebrows, sealing all his breath, while Xiao Xia and Wan Li on the side each took out a charm from their pockets and pasted it on their chests, and also found a gas mask from the bamboo basket to put on.
Ruan Zhan knew that there were many ways for Gu poison to spread, and for a skilled Gu wizard, not only by taking it, but also by breathing and even skin contact. Guan is a genius in Gu arts, and he has God-endowed divine abilities, so he has carefully and carefully prepared.
Seeing this, Ah Wu on the side immediately tore off a bush of weeds beside him, recited a few incantations and stuffed them into his mouth, while Duan Jin just waved his hand in front of his face, and her face was no longer a beauty's face, it looked like a stiff mask, just like back then, it was a Japanese Kabuki-style fake face. She's a ghost, she doesn't need to breathe, she doesn't have skin, but Guan Zheng will be a ghost, who knows if there is any other way to deal with ghosts, of course, you have to guard against it!
Guan Zheng ignored the actions of Ruan Zhan and the others, and continued to chant the mantra without any intention of stopping. It only took a moment for this small valley, which was unusually bright by the moonlight, to fall into extreme darkness.
The darkness is so thick and dense that the person in it has the feeling that there are no eyes at all, not just that you can't see your fingers, so that you can at least feel that you are standing or sitting, but in this darkness, you can't even feel the coordinates, plus the air around you seems to be surging like waves, exuding bursts of disgusting salty smell, making people feel like they are in a hellish black sea.
"Damn, this old guy put us in an inkwell!" Wan Li muttered.
His voice stabilized Xiao Xia, who almost fell because he had no sense of coordinates, and groped to grasp the edge of the big bluestone in front of him, barely standing firm. Just as he wanted to say something, he saw a bright light flash in Ruan Zhan's direction.
Xiao Xia knew that it was his light charm, which he had used to use when he was fighting Xiucai Ghost underwater. However, I don't know if it's because of the gap between his skills and Guan Zheng's, and because of his injury, his light talisman only illuminates a small side, like a spotlight on the stage, only shining on a place less than two or three square meters around him. Although Xiao Xia and Wanli could see him, he couldn't see them.
I saw Ruan Zhan stretch out his hand and sacrifice another light talisman, pointed due east, and let the talisman shoot like an arrow, seeing that a ray of light was about to cut through the darkness, but he heard a 'pop' sound, and fell in mid-air again.
"Don't panic!" Ruan Zhan said in a deep voice.
He was answered with a grim laugh, which came from the place where the spell fell, and was obviously intercepted by Guan Zheng in the middle of the spell.
"Duan Jin, illuminate with a sunny eye." Ruan Zhan commanded.
He knew that it was the supreme yang thing, and he could feel that there was an extremely heavy yin qi in the black mist around him, and he was afraid that it was refined in some dead man's pile or catacomb. Therefore, as soon as the thing of the supreme sun came out, he only needed to hit the light talisman on it, and the black fog shrouded above the quadrangle would be broken.
However, as soon as he said a word, there was no movement in Duan Jin's direction. He repeated it out loud, still without the slightest reaction. He felt a pang in his heart, knowing that this unstable factor still brought trouble - she promised to guard the west of this formation, promised not to let Guan Zheng escape from her side, she would do this, but she refused to help with other things, she still hated them for killing that evil baby!
In the black fog, they couldn't see anything, but Guan Zheng could see it. But when Guan Zheng escaped in the dark, he wasn't worried, because once this array was activated, it was like laying an enchantment, and both the defending and attacking formations seemed to stay in a box. He was afraid that he would hide in the dark and sneak up on the other two defenders. Ah Wu is just a Taoist woman with a slight ability, and he can only fight it by virtue of his familiarity with Guan Zheng's witchcraft; And Wanli and Xiao Xia are ordinary people, if Guan Zheng attacks this side with darkness, not only will they not have the power to fight back, but they will also be quite dangerous.
In the quadrangular, in terms of strength, only he and Duan Jin can really contend with Guan Zheng, and now Duan Jin refuses to help, and he can't leave the position he wants to defend, if he wants to subdue Guan Zheng's black fog, he has to think of another way!
As if in response to his judgment, a sound of water came, coming from the other side of the pool. He understood that Guan Zheng was about to wade through this waist-high pool, because on the other side was due east of Wanli and Xiao Xia's guards.
The east is the birthgate of this array, and there is a waterfall next to it, which has the meaning of flowing, and Guan Zheng will definitely want to go out from this side. Although he would wonder why two of the most incompetent people were sent to guard such an important position, he was in a hurry to leave now, and he would definitely think that it was because Ruan Zhan trusted Wan Li and Xiao Xia. Just like at this moment, he didn't even have time to bypass this small pool, and just crossed the water.
Can't let Guan Zheng attack the East now!
In his anxiety, he turned his heart sideways, whispered the incantation, and then shouted, "Xiao Xia, let go!" With the sound of 'whooping' breaking through the sky, he immediately took back the broken banner that Xiao Xia had been holding.
Feeling the slight coolness of the metal in his hand, he once again aimed it in the direction of due west, "Don't force me to accept you!" He said coldly and forcefully, "If you promise to help, you must obey my command, otherwise I will not be polite to you, no matter how many years you have been doing Taoism, and no matter how good you have done and disobeyed me!" ”
There was still a dead silence on Duan Jin's side, and what he said seemed to melt into the air, useless. And the sound of wading in the ears is even louder, indicating that Guan Zheng has reached the center of the pool!
Ruan Zhan faced due west, although she couldn't see it, she felt that the ghost aura of Sensen there was still there, and she knew that Duan Jin hadn't left, but she just didn't want to help.
He was ruthless and concentrated all his spiritual power, mental power, and mana power on the Broken Banner.
With a loud shout, the cracked banner suddenly grew larger! This time it was no longer half a man tall, but more than a man tall, and the metal surface of the banner flowed with a reddish-brown shimmer, like water ripples, and a strong whirlwind rolled up due west!
Because he was so anxious, before he knew it, the ability to be sealed was released again!
