Chapter Eighty-Four: Encountering Evil Spirits Again
"The wrath of the Shocking Flood has already shocked all factions, and they will not take it easy when faced with the revenge of the Shocking Flood faction. Besides, while healing him, I have left a mark on my body to keep him safe. ”
Hearing the last sentence, Gong Bochang breathed a sigh of relief, there is the mark of Dongxuan, except for some unborn old monsters, who can hurt him?
Gu Xuan went down Jinghong Mountain alone, and this time, he had to face all the dangers under the mountain alone. Fortunately, with the experience of the last time, he didn't feel that there was anything wrong.
Stepping on the dragon technique and running wildly all the way, except for stopping to ask the direction of Mingluo Water City when he met mortals, Gu Xuan was either sitting cross-legged or hurrying away at other times.
On this day, Gu Xuan passed through a village, he didn't plan to enter it when he passed by, but this village reminded him of the ancient village, and finally he restrained his breath, turned into a mortal, and stepped in.
The village was not very large, and the number of people was very small, and after Gu Xuan stepped in, he felt that something was not right, the village was too deserted, except for a few old people sitting in the shade of the trees, not even a young person could be seen.
These old men were all white-haired, drooping and twilight, they were the ones who had entered the coffin with one foot, and in the face of Gu Xuan's arrival, they stood up very excitedly, pointing at Gu Xuan and scolding.
Gu Xuan felt inexplicable, and hurriedly explained: "A few old people, I just passed by here to find some water to drink. ”
Several old men held on to the tree and took a few breaths, one of them walked by tremblingly, looked at him for a long time, and then said: "Young man, you better go quickly, we have devils here, specializing in young and middle-aged people, and the people in the village have been arrested one after another, and there are only a few old men left with us." ”
"Devil?" Gu Xuan was surprised and said, "I don't know what kind of devil it is, what are you doing with so many people?"
An old man whimpered, "It eats people for a living, and my grandson was captured and eaten alive by him." ”
Gu Xuan was furious, judging from their expressions, it should have been done by an immortal cultivator, and with the cultivation method of eating living people, he had never heard of it at all, he felt that it might be an evil cultivator.
Gu Xuan secretly released his divine sense, checked it, and found that there were still dozens of people in the underground of the village, but most of them were old people and children, all hiding in the cellar below.
He quietly withdrew his consciousness and said, "Old man, will the devil come again today?"
The old man nodded and said, "It comes every three days, so that's why we mistook you for it." ”
Gu Xuan said: "Since this is the case, then I have to run for my life, take care of the old man." ”
Gu Xuan said goodbye to several old people, and after leaving the village, he found a hidden place to hide, he planned to wait for the rabbit and help the people of this village get rid of the so-called devil.
The sky was getting dark, the moon was hanging over the treetops, the wind was strong, and the trees swayed with the wind, which seemed very mysterious in this wilderness.
The village was even quieter, there were no lights at all, Gu Xuan sat near the village, leaning out his divine sense, closely monitoring everything here.
Until the third watch, there was no movement here. Just when Gu Xuan mistakenly thought that it would not come tonight, a faint fluctuation of spiritual power came from the village.
Gu Xuan got up suddenly, he was a little surprised, what was the origin of the other party, how did he silently enter the village and evade his investigation, but from that fluctuation, this person should be similar to his realm, all in the early stage of the Spirit Ruins.
"Ah, my child!"
Suddenly, there was a heart-rending sound in the village, and the hiding place of the villagers was discovered, and they did not know that even if they hid under the cellar, they could not hide from the detection of the divine sense.
As soon as Gu Xuan's figure moved, he appeared at the entrance of the village, and he looked at a man in a black robe with a ghost mask, carrying two seven or eight-year-old children in his hands, they were trembling, and their immature faces were full of fear.
"Evil Spirit Sect?" Gu Xuan was furious, his spiritual power surged, and he smashed it with a fist, and the ghost-faced man suddenly noticed that someone was attacking, and he was a little chaotic for a while, blocking the child from the application and using them as a meat shield.
Gu Xuan secretly said despicable, but his current combat experience was not the same as it was at the beginning, his fist strength was free, and when he reached the two children, he had no power. He grabbed the two children, pulled them over, and kicked them at the ghost-faced man.
The man felt Gu Xuan's power, knew that he was invincible, threw the two children away, turned around and fled.
Gu Xuan put the two children down, and the dragon technique worked, and chased them out. During the pursuit, Gu Xuan noticed that the Ghostface Man was very fast, as if he had grown wings, gliding against the ground.
Gu Xuan's spiritual power was spurted, and the dragon technique was exerted to the extreme, his dragon technique had broken through the first stage of dragon teng, and at this time, he was running at full strength, and when he was running, he could see a vague afterimage.
The increase in speed made the two of them closer, and Gu Xuan drew a talisman in his hand, and a qi talisman hit him. The ghost-faced man dodged nimbly, smirking in his mouth.
Gu Xuan snorted lightly, pinched the seal in his hand, and the demon seal was punched out, locking the ghost-faced man, hitting him in the back, knocking him to the ground.
Gu Xuan arrived, his spiritual power burst out, and he punched the ghost-faced man and had to take the punch. Gu Xuan's punch didn't use any force, and after the ghost-faced man caught it, he used this strength to retreat and put it on top of an ancient tree.
"People from the Evil Spirit Sect?" Gu Xuan said coldly.
The man smiled strangely: "Since you know, you dare to ask, is it too long?"
Gu Xuan's murderous intent flashed: "You won't know if my life will be long, because you will die here." ”
The man sighed and said, "You want to kill me too?"
Gu Xian didn't say anything more, his feet moved, his body had already rushed forward a few feet, and the ghost-faced man tapped his feet, trying to hide in a tree in vain. Gu Xuan jumped high, raised his hand and blasted over, and a spiritual power knocked out a hole in the ancient tree, the leaves fell one after another, and the branches were broken.
The ghost-faced man was frightened and didn't dare to fight, but Gu Xuan had already stuck up, and the ghost-faced man let out a long howl, and a layer of black mist erupted around him, wanting to erode Gu Xuan.
Gu Xuan's eyebrows flashed, and a flame erupted, enveloping him, isolating him from the black mist. Gu Xuan stepped forward, his palms rose and fell, knocking him back, coughing up blood in his mouth. After Nirvana, Gu Xuan was extremely strong, standing at the peak of his peers. However, after a few moves, the Ghostface was seriously injured.
"Do you know Liang Wenyuan?" Gu Xuan asked, a seal in his hand.
The ghost-faced man half-knelt on the ground and said in a muffled voice, "Are you from the Shocking Flood Sect?"
Gu Xuan said again: "How is he now?"
"Hey, hey, he's not dead. Ghostface grinned. Without waiting for Gu Xuan to breathe a sigh of relief, he said again: "But it's worse than dying, he fell into a demon and became a big demon, hahaha." ”
Gu Xuan was furious, slapped it down with one palm, sandwiched it between the Demon Seal, and hit him in the back.
"Poof. ”
The ghost-faced man's mask fell, and he looked at Gu Xuan with a hideous and resentful expression, almost distorted.
Gu Xuan frowned, he felt that this ghost-faced man was a little familiar, as if he was a little like the great evil cultivator who had captured Gong Yuqing in the first place.
"If you dare to kill me, you will not die a good death. The man was lying on the ground, speaking wildly, but in fact, from his gaze, Gu Xuan saw the horror.
Gu Xuan sneered: "Even if there is that day, you are destined not to see it." He stepped forward and slammed his fist into the chest, sending him back to the West.
"What's more, that day won't come up. “
A little ghostly light surfaced on his chest, rising into the sky in Gu Xuan's gaze, Gu Xuan looked up, unable to pursue. He knew that it was a kind of seal, and the person who made the seal would be notified after the person's death.
"Senior Brother, are you really enchanted?" Gu Xuan muttered, then turned to leave.
Luoshui City is a famous prosperous capital of the Donghua Dynasty, and its richness is comparable to that of the imperial capital of Donghua. Outside Luoshui City, there is a Luoshui River, according to legend, there is a god in the river, which is respected by the world, and until now, Luoshui City has a ceremony to worship Luoshen every year.
On the fifth day after leaving that village, Gu Xuan arrived in Luoshui City. I happened to meet the worship ceremony of Luoshen. It was very lively outside the city, the city lord personally led various officials in the city to pay tribute outside the city, Gu Xuan guessed that this Luo Shen should also be a Taoist king, and even a supreme person, compared to his ancestor Dongxuan, he was stronger.
Such characters are his goals in the future.
The sacrificial ceremony was very solemn, but the Luoshui River was very quiet.
At the end of the ceremony, the Luoshui River suddenly changed, and the originally calm river began to churn, and huge waves sprayed out of the river, drenching the city lord and others who were standing at the front into soup chickens.
"Luo Shen has appeared!" I don't know who shouted, and everyone began to bow down reverently, clasping their hands together, and chanting words.
But Gu Xuan didn't think so, he clearly felt a wave of spiritual power, coming from the water. He reached out and sensed a hazy shadow several feet long swimming in the water, stirring up the river.
"Is this, a dragon?" Gu Xuan saw the thing clearly, and his heart shook. He was also noticed by the little dragon, and he plunged into the depths, not stirring up.
The water calmed down again, which disappointed the people of the city, and after waiting for a long time, there were no more miracles.
After the sacrifice ended, Gu Xuan mixed into the city with the flow of people. The city is even more lively than the outside, and not everyone participates in the festival. On the way, what Gu Xuan heard the most was that a big local family did not attend the sacrifice ceremony.
After Gu Xuan inquired, he learned that this family was the Ling family where Ling Mengchu was, and someone told him that the Ling family had been closed for more than ten consecutive days, and there were no outsiders, some people said that they had provoked the immortals, and they were afraid of being sought revenge, and they didn't dare to escape, so they hid.
"I heard that even the daughter of the Ling family's immortal cultivator has returned, and she was spurned by the immortal cultivator sect and was unwilling to take it in. ”
"No, someone in the Ling family dies every day for no reason, like a haunting. ”
Gu Xuan asked on the side, "Who are the people who died?"
"It's a subordinate, the Ling family has nothing to do, what kind of sin do you say, you caused trouble yourself, but implicated others. ”
Gu Xuan didn't listen again, raised his feet and left, and after asking where the Ling family was, he rushed straight to it.
The Ling family is a big family in Luoshui City, and it can be said that the family has a lot of wealth, and it is very powerful here. And among their clansmen, there are several immortal cultivators, and generally no one dares to provoke them, and the family business is in full swing, rising step by step, and there is a faint tendency to become the number one clan in Luoshui City.
