After a fierce battle, Gu Xu's face turned a little pale.

The "Meteor Walking the Moon" body method is a martial art after all - it consumes not only true yuan, but also physical strength.

Gu Xu has always been weak.

Using the "Meteor Walk to the Moon" twice in a row was comparable to participating in a thousand-meter run for him, and his heart began to ache faintly.

"I'll have to find a way to make up for myself in the future......" he thought silently to himself.

At the same time, as the sky returned to clarity, the surrounding people finally recovered from the battle that ended in an instant.

Just now, the fierce and vicious appearance of the dryad's soul when it possessed the young woman left a deep psychological shadow on them.

These mortals have no power to resist in front of the dryad, so they can only be slaughtered by it, and they are almost the food in its belly.

Fortunately, the practitioners of the Exorcism Division rushed to their side at a life-or-death moment to help them get out of the crisis.

It's like a timely rain.

Despite the fact that the boy was not very old, he looked weak.

But the menacing dryad split soul in front of him didn't even survive two rounds, and it completely evaporated from the world.

"This young adult is a real strong man." Looking at Gu Xu's thin back, everyone couldn't help but sigh silently in their hearts.

At this time, Bai Qingcang, the patriarch of the Bai family, came to Gu Xu, knelt on his knees with a "bang", and said sincerely: "Under Bai Qingcang, on behalf of myself and my family, thank you for saving your life." If it weren't for the adults who came in time today, I'm afraid our whole family would have died in Huangquan. ”

Gu Xu stretched out his hand to help him up: "Old man doesn't have to be polite. Destroying that monster is the duty of us Exorcism Officers. ”

Bai Qingcang looked at Gu Xu's light appearance and sighed softly.

It can be seen that today's major matter related to the life and death of the entire Bai family is just a gesture in the eyes of this young monk.

"Where did you learn today's 'Dancing God' ceremony?" After a while, Gu Xu thought of an important question and asked Bai Qingcang.

"My lord, this is what we found from an ancient book at home," Bai Qingcang replied respectfully, "Because our family has encountered some troubles recently, so we rushed to the doctor, and we wanted to invite our wise ancestor back through this ancient ceremony, so that she could guide us through the maze." ”

Gu Xu said with a serious face: "In the future, you must not believe any rituals or spells related to summoning the undead, let alone try them casually."

"Even if you can really summon the soul of the old ancestor back, there is a high probability that they have already suffered from the erosion of yin qi and have become irrational ghosts.

"The officials of our Exorcism Division can't guarantee that they will be able to rush to your side in time for every danger in the future."

"Remember the teachings of your lords." Bai Qingcang lowered his head and kept Gu Xu's words firmly in his mind.

At the same time, Bai Qingcang also asked the housekeeper to hand over a thick stack of silver tickets, hoping that Gu Xu could accept it as a reward for saving his life.

"A little courtesy, not a respect, I hope the adults will laugh!"

Although Gu Xu, as a poor worker, was very greedy for these silver tickets, he still shook his head resolutely and simply refused neatly.

The regulations of the Great Qi Exorcism Division clearly require officials to be honest and honest, and it is forbidden to accept bribes from ordinary people in the course of their missions.

After all, the gap between the strength of cultivators and mortals is too great.

In the absence of discipline, some practitioners may rely on their extraordinary power to secretly extort ordinary people in the form of "rewards".

Gu Xu understood that it was these strict regulations that enabled the Great Qi Dynasty cultivators and mortals to perform their duties, live in harmony, and live a peaceful life in the established order.

If cultivators lose their shackles and allow them to act recklessly with their extraordinary powers, then they are likely to turn from "heroes" in the eyes of civilians into beings even more terrifying than ghosts.

When that time comes, I am afraid that the world will be completely dominated by the law of the jungle.

…………

A few minutes later, Gu Xu and Shi Xiaohan left Xunliu Street and set off to return to the Yamen of the Exorcism Division.

On the way back, Shi Xiaohan couldn't help but complain: "Gu Xu, can you not beat the ghost to death so quickly in the future?" Leave a little room for this woman to play! ”

Gu Xu shrugged helplessly: "I'm sorry, Lord Woman, I didn't expect that the Dryad Split Soul to be so weak that I slapped it to death." ”

Shi Xiaohan crossed his hands on his hips and narrowed his eyes: "You actually dare to be cheap and behave in front of this heroine?" ”

"Heroine forgiveness!" Gu Xu raised his hands and said with a smile.

Shi Xiaohan suddenly burst out laughing.

She has always been a person who has no heart, and her joys, angers, sorrows and joys are clearly written on her face, and she can't hold back if she wants to.

Although she has no sense of participation in this mission today.

But she was very happy to follow Gu Xu to Xunliu Street, watching him slay demons and demons in front of everyone, show his might, and see all kinds of unique skills of street artists.

At this time, the two passed by the entertainer who performed the "rat show" again.

The old man who guarded the storeroom was still standing aside, watching the mice jump up and down on the wooden frame, dancing and performing a wonderful repertoire.

"Aren't you two going on a mission? Why did you come back here again? When he saw the figures of Gu Xu and Shi Xiaohan, the old man couldn't help asking.

"The task has been completed," Gu Xu smiled slightly, "We are going to go back and make an errand." ”

"Don't brag, boy. I haven't finished a single scene yet, how can you possibly finish the task? It can't be just a casual perfunctory, right? ”

"That ghost is so weak that it was slapped to death by Gu Xu," Shi Xiaohan said with a grin, "so I didn't even have a chance to make a move." ”

The old man stared at Gu Xu, looked him carefully from head to toe, and then turned his head and continued to concentrate on watching the "rat play".

"Go back quickly! Don't interfere with my play! ”

"No problem!" Shi Xiaohan said briskly.

Then she grabbed Gu Xu's sleeve and dragged him forward, coming to a rock sugar gourd stall.

I saw that the red and round hawthorns were strung together, wrapped in a layer of shiny sugar coating, shining with an attractive luster in the sun, which made Shi Xiaohan can't help but suck his saliva.

"I want two rock sugar gourds!" She said to the vendor.

The peddler glanced at the clothes of the two, and was flattered that the master of the Exorcist Division would patronize his humble stall.

"My lord, a total of forty texts!" The hawker enthusiastically handed the two sugar gourds to Shi Xiaohan.

Shi Xiaohan reached out and touched his pocket, and found that he only had a few silver tickets with large denominations in his pocket, and there were no copper coins.

"Gu Xu, did you bring change?" She raised her head, blinked her eyes, and looked at Gu Xu beside her.

Gu Xu hesitated for two seconds and nodded.

In fact, with his usual style, he didn't like to spend money on snacks - after all, this thing was not a necessity of life, and it didn't help his cultivation in any way.

But when he saw Shi Xiaohan's salivating appearance, he still took out the copper coin from his pocket and handed it to the vendor.

Shi Xiaohan stuffed a sugar gourd into Gu Xu's hand, while she herself held the other, stuck out her tongue, and licked the crystal frosting wrapped around the hawthorn with relish.

"Hire a bodyguard with a sugar gourd! Gu Xu, your deal today is quite a bargain! ”

"But didn't you say before that you wanted me to invite you to dinner?"

"It's all the same. You still owe me several meals anyway. ”
