Chapter 61: Ghost Town
The sky was already dark, and there was not a single pedestrian on the streets of Zixiao City except for Tian Yi and the fat man, and the sound of the two of them walking echoed around, which seemed a little weird. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Tomorrow is the day of the mourning of the lord of Zixiao City, and the entire Zixiao City is covered with white cloth strips, making the already dead and silent city like a ghost town.
The fat man seemed to be a little scared, and kept looking around, and often looked back and back, looking at the empty streets, looking a little uneasy.
"Are you afraid of ghosts?" Tianyi glanced at the fat man with some curiosity. Although Tianyi had seen the record of ghosts in the book "Strange Things", he still didn't believe it. The book says: Everyone has a soul, and when the yang life is over, the soul will pass through the plane and come to the so-called underworld. However, there are few souls that will stay in the yang world because of some special circumstances, such as being too heavy in the land of death, or having too strong obsessions. At this time, there will be ghosts who will come to arrest them. However, even if there are ghosts left in the yang world, they are usually invisible. This is true even for immortal cultivators.
The fat man felt that he was being underestimated, so he calmed down and retorted to Tianyi, "What is so terrible about ghosts, if he dares to come out... Look at the master, I don't have to kill him!"
Tianyi shook his head with a wry smile, and the two of them walked towards Zixiao City like this. Tonight, Zixiao kept vigil, and Tianyi wanted to go over and accompany him. However, as soon as Tianyi and the fat man walked to the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, they felt that something was wrong.
On weekdays, the City Lord's Mansion is brightly lit at any time, and there are people guarding the door all the time. Today, however, the City Lord's Mansion is dead silent, and there is no light in sight. However, Tianyi saw a person at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, and that person was facing the gate of the City Lord's Mansion and could not see his face. But looking at the man's back, it felt a little familiar.
Walking closer, Tianyi found that this person was dressed in a Taoist robe, holding a peachwood sword in his backhand, and various magic weapons hanging from his waist. Isn't it just the little Taoist priest "enlightenment".
Tian Yi walked a few steps behind the little Taoist, he kept looking at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, and did not find anything abnormal behind him. Tianyi gently patted the little Taoist priest's shoulder, startling him.
The little Taoist priest hurriedly turned around and found that the person who came was Tianyi. The frowning brow stretched slightly, and a smile hung on.
Tianyi looked at the little Taoist priest and felt that he was much more mature and stable this time. "It's great to see you alive! How did you get out that day?"
The little Taoist priest had a hint of memory in his eyes, his brows furrowed, and he explained simply, "That day, Mr. Wei and I hesitated to run behind you, but there were too many people, and they were all running in the opposite direction of you, and we couldn't run over." was left behind ... Afterward... Then a huge pit suddenly appeared in the ground, and the soil in the pit swirled like a knife, and everyone who entered it died. There was still a kind of suction in the pit, and only some of the primordial monks ran out... ”
Tianyi remembered the big pit with a diameter of several miles that he saw in Qingxu Cave that day, and imagined the scene at that time. No wonder it leaves such a big shadow in the psyche of illusion.
The little Taoist priest continued, "Mr. Wei and I were left behind, so we also hid. Later, the head of the Qingxu Cave, the 'Dao Void True Man', opened the Great Sect Protection Array, and those people from the Heavenly Demon Land withdrew!"
Tianyi secretly sighed that the little Taoist priest was blessed with a great life. "Where's Mr. Death?"
"After he came out of the Qingxu Cave, he went back to the Ghost Valley. Because the master asked me to travel in the world, and I had nowhere else to go, I went back with him. It wasn't until today that I felt that ghosts were prevalent here, so I came to investigate. After the little Taoist priest finished speaking, several people looked at the ghostly City Lord's Mansion together.
The little Taoist priest said that there are ghosts, then there are naturally ghosts, and he is an expert in catching ghosts and monsters. In this regard, Tianyi has absolute faith in him. It's like believing that the fat man shouted to run away.
Hearing the little Taoist priest say this, Tianyi couldn't help but worry about Zixiao. "I've got friends in there, is there anything I can do?"
The little Taoist priest shook his head and looked at the sky, "This is a ghost gathering array. I have seen this formation in the classics of the master's sect. The effect of the formation is only to amplify the yang energy of the people in the formation, but it is not really amplified. It's just that the ghost feels that the people inside have a strong yang energy, and they are generally picked. ”
Tianyi couldn't understand what Yang Qi was magnifying, and it wasn't really magnified, so he couldn't understand it at all. looked at the fat man, and the fat man also shook his head blankly.
The little Taoist priest saw that the two didn't understand, so he explained to the two in another way, "It is to let the ghosts in the distance feel that there is food here and attract them." And the food that the ghost sees is the people inside, but the ghost feels that these people are more delicious than usual, and it is difficult to resist the temptation!"
He explained this, and Tianyi understood, "It's like smelling the fragrance inside of a restaurant when you pass by and want to go in to eat." ”
The little Taoist priest understood when he saw Tianyi, but there was a helpless smile on his face, "That's pretty much it, but in fact there is no delicacy in it, the delicacy that the ghost sees is all illusory! These people are also ordinary people!"
"It's just that I saw Senior Sister Yao seduce me, and after hugging her, I found out that he was Senior Sister!" After hearing this, the fat man felt that he understood, and he wanted to show off. But he was really helpless to explain this...
The little Taoist priest didn't know who Senior Sister Na Yao and Senior Sister Na were. opened his mouth and explained, "It's Tianyi who smells the fragrance and goes into the restaurant to eat, and the dish served to him is roast duck." In fact, it's white-flour steamed buns, but Tianyi can't find it when he eats it!"
As soon as the little Taoist priest said this, Tianyi completely understood. "That's to trick the ghost into attacking the people inside!"
"Yes! However, this formation can deceive ghosts, and naturally it can deceive people. If we get inside, we get lost in it. And if we want to crack this formation, the only way to do this is to kill the person who presides over this formation, or to pull out its eyes, but the person who presides over this formation must be inside, and the only way for us to break the formation is to enter the formation! But with such a big formation, I don't have the confidence to come out alive! So I have been hesitating when you come!" the little Taoist priest said with a hint of gloom.
Tianyi was stunned, if he had just met the little Taoist, he would have already dived into it with his temperament.
"It's okay, I have a way!" Tianyi said as he looked at the little Taoist.
After hearing Tianyi's words, the little Taoist priest's expression became a little eager to try. After that, he pointed to a little Tianyi and the eyebrows of the fat man.
Tianyi only felt a trace of spiritual power pour into his eyes, and the scene he saw after that changed greatly. The City Lord's Mansion in front of him was shrouded in a sky-high black gas, and there was a bright white light in the City Lord's Mansion that was like a mist, drifting around. Tianyi cast a smooth wind and came into the air, because of the obscuration of the black gas, he could not see the situation in the house. But he saw that the bright white light enveloped all directions as far as his eyes could see. Ghosts kept crawling out of the ground, drifting towards this side, and entering the city lord's mansion.
Tianyi was covered in hair, but he didn't expect that the first time he saw a ghost, it was such a scene. The images of those ghosts are different, some are like complete people, some seem to be faint and about to dissipate, some are hideous and greedy, and some are ugly and have incomplete facial features. There are many others who are not human.
