Hearing this familiar title, Chen An's pupils suddenly shrank.

Although Hong Erniang deliberately lowered his voice, the whole room was not very big, and his senses were far beyond the ordinary, and the so-called lowing of his voice was not much different from shouting directly in his ear.

Therefore, he clearly heard those four words, and his heart was shocked.

Is it a coincidence? or ......

"What is a ghost?"

Lan Qin's voice was also very low, and it was obvious that Hong Erniang's warning could not suppress the little girl's curiosity. This little girl looks like she is only fifteen or sixteen years old, and it is the time when curiosity is heavy. However, her question also asked Chen Anxin what he was thinking.

Hong Erniang had the heart to ignore her, but she couldn't bear to look at her big moist eyes and look at her pitiful little appearance of being injured, so she raised her breath, suppressed her voice, and opened her mouth to answer her question, hoping to relieve her pain a little in this way.

Who knew that before she could speak, Kuang Zhong on the side had already grabbed the conversation, and he didn't care at all about the one-eyed old man who was praying for prayer, and said as if no one was around: "The ghost disciples are a bunch of crazy people, they worship evil gods, and they are bloodthirsty and murderous, so you can stay away from them in the future." ”

In this regard, the one-eyed old man on the side didn't seem to hear it, he should worship God and worship God, and he should pray and pray, which made Lan Qin can't help but look at him twice.

However, after this incident, the atmosphere in the temple suddenly fell silent, and everyone stopped talking and rested their wounds.

It's just that Chen An, who was ignited with countless doubts in his heart, was difficult to calm down, his eyes wandered around the ugly statue of the one-eyed old man from time to time, and finally he couldn't help but lean over and almost said, "Uncle, what do you call it?"

The one-eyed old man paused, and slowly turned his face to look at Chen An, which also allowed Chen An to see the whole picture clearly under his cloak.

If you only look at the face, this old man should not be ugly when he was young, but he doesn't know what he has experienced, and he has left several centipede-like scars on his face, one of which happened to cross his right eye and blinded him. The skin on his face also seemed to have gone through countless vicissitudes and became dry and sallow, and lacklustre. The only intact eye was also cloudy, and the whole person looked like a dying wood.

"You're not afraid of me?"

Lao Suo's voice was hoarse, like a file sharpening, and it seemed to have the magic of making people scratch their heads.

"Why should I be afraid of you?" Chen An was a little strange.

"Because I'm a ghost, don't you all like ghosts, do you think ghosts represent disaster?" Lao Sue's voice was unpleasant, but it was very calm, as if he was stating a fact.

"It's just a difference in beliefs," Chen Anyu sighed: "Maybe ordinary people really don't like disasters and the unknown, but in fact, sometimes there are some things that are more terrifying than disasters. ”

"For example?"

"Like the human heart. ”

Lao Su was silent, and only after a while did he say: "You are right, compared with people's hearts, ghosts really have nothing to be afraid of. ”

Chen An smiled and raised his chin at the ghost sculpture and said, "But I'm really a little curious, this ...... Which god does this statue represent?"

That's what he really wanted to ask.

"Ten Thousand Poisonous Ghost King. ”

Lao Suo's cloudy old eyes suddenly lit up with a gleam, and the spirit of the whole person gave people a feeling of "coming to life".

"He is the greatest god, not a shadow of any man, but the destination of some of the world, who will eventually destroy the world and return it to solitude. ”

Cultists!

Looking at Lao Suo's slightly red face, Chen An thought about it, but said in his mouth: "Does he have any deeds that have been handed down in the world for the world to admire?"

This sentence seemed to scratch the itch of Lao Suo, and he said excitedly: "His miracle has turned the whole south into a purgatory......

"This ......"

Chen An was a little speechless, the belief in ghosts and demons generally comes from the worship of the powerful, or the fear of the unknown. But looking at Lao Suo's appearance, it should be neither, so what is the situation? Pure neurosis, madman?

"His greatness, of course, is beyond the comprehension of ordinary people. Lao Su glanced at Chen An, did not continue, closed his eyes and began to pray.

Chen An came to talk about it, how could he make him silent, so he changed the direction of the topic with a roll of his eyes and said: "Uncle, you seem to be a person with a story." ”

"Boom...... If I lost my father at an early age, my wife in middle age, and my son in my later years, I do have a lot of stories. ”

Chen An's head trembled, and he unexpectedly remembered his life experience, and smiled reluctantly: "It's rich." ”

"It's the Ghost King," Lao Suo looked at the four-armed demon statue in front of him with a fanatical look on his face, and said excitedly: "It was the Ghost King who turned the entire south into purgatory, and the damned and unworthy are all dead, and the whole world will be clean all of a sudden, and there will be no more filth, and people like me can walk in the sun with dignity and integrity......"

Chen An's face was a little stiff, and Lao Suo's words made him seem to remember something, and he cautiously tested: "That, what method did the Ghost King use to turn the entire south into purgatory?"

"Its honorific name is Ten Thousand Poisons, so naturally it should be poisonous. ”

Chen An's voice trembled a little, and he said, "What poison?"

Lao Suo glanced at him with one eye and said, "That is the great power that belongs to the gods, how can we ordinary people know about it." ”

Chen An was choked for a moment, but calmed down, knowing that Lao Sue also knew limitedly, as soon as his thoughts turned, he wanted to ask about the situation in the Central Plains or the north by the way.

Just before he could speak, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside the temple, and a group of five or six people broke in.

Hong Erniang and the others were shocked, and they were on guard with swords and swords, but when they saw the person who came, they breathed a sigh of relief, and let down their guard a little and said: "Didn't the East Steward go to fight the demon? Why did you hide in the Yakushi Yaksha Temple in such an embarrassment." ”

Dongsheng held his right hand and lowered his left arm softly, and then he seemed to see the situation in the temple clearly, but he didn't say anything in the face of the ridicule in Hong Erniang's tone.

Instead, Yu Hong, the head of another Hongxin firm that everyone had seen, answered: "It turned out to be you Hong'er Lady, this time I Hongxin Firm can't stand you, it's really a mistake and omission in the information, I don't know that there are three demons hidden in that cave." As long as I can go back, I will double the remuneration I promised to you. ”

Yu Hong was covered in blood, and he was still holding an unconscious middle-aged man in his hand, but his expression when he said this was extremely sincere, which made some resentment in the hearts of Hong Erniang and the others disperse, and they were silent.

Only Chen An wanted to laugh when he heard it.

As long as you can go back?

Is this a promise? Or is it pulling bodyguards?

If you can't go back, you don't have to give it, this is still a blank check, and you don't want to cause trouble to your family and boss.

It's just that no matter what Chen An thinks, Hong Erniang and the others seem to be moved by Yu Hong's words, not only did they not be hostile to him anymore, but they still took the initiative to give up a place to Yu Hong and the five people.

So that the latter is grateful, good words come without money, and all kinds of promises are flying all over the sky.

After a while, he ended his greetings with acquaintances and began to settle the people around him.

Originally, when they set off, there were only a few of the more than 50 people left in the Horizon Commercial Bank, including Dongsheng, who had been assigned a long time ago, and they all had injuries on their bodies and looked miserable. No one thought that this operation would fail, and fifty people with so many firearms, even if they went to attack a small city, they were not sure that they would be able to deal with a wounded demon.

But who knew that it was not the expected injured demon, but a whole three intact demons, whose terrifying power could defeat the team of themselves and others with just one face, and the result of the desperate efforts of himself and others was only to injure one of them with the dragon crossbow.

Now Yu Hong just wants to crush the people who provided the news at the beginning, but now is obviously not the time, so he has more than a little anger on his face, and he licked his face and "borrowed" some dry food and healing medicine from Kuang Zhong and Hong Erniang.

Seeing that the noisy temple was quiet again, Chen An couldn't help but wonder in his heart, they had been hiding for a while, and the appearance of Yu Hong and the others seemed to be being chased very quickly, so what about the demons chasing behind them?

For a while, Hong Erniang's words just now came to mind again.

"The incense offered by the mountains and wilderness, the demons generally dare not infringe, we can go in and hide. ”

Could it be that there is really a miracle in this temple? so that the demons dare not invade and the evil do not dare to commit it?

No, Chen An suddenly looked up in the direction of the god platform, where there was obviously a demon sleeping in the brand-new statue with a strong breath, at first Chen An thought it was a disaster, but now that he thinks about it, it shouldn't be.

The escape of evil qi has caused people to be hallucinated from miles away, and there is a dark cloud that hangs over this temple all year round. No matter how you look at it, it looks like a representation of a ruin-level demon, but because it is sleeping, its breath is relatively weak.

So it's because of its existence that other demons don't dare to make a mistake, it's it, a big demon who protects the outlaws?

But this is not right, when did the demons have territorial consciousness, in the Eastern Wilderness, the demons represent bloodthirsty madness, they can be driven, but they must not be stopped, even if they are high-level demons.

Or is there a difference between the species called the demons here and the demons of the Eastern Wilderness, they are closer to beasts, they are territorial, and they are afraid of higher species? If this is the case, what does the incense offered in the mountains and fields in Hong Erniang's words mean? Not only this temple, or has she only been to this temple? Other temples are also coincidentally entrenched by ruin-level demons?

Studied but cannot comprehend.

However, Chen An is not ready to spend time with these people here. For the sake of their lives, they obviously want to hide until they die. How could Chen An have so much time to spend with them.

So in the second half of the night, after everyone fell asleep, without waking anyone, Chen An walked out of the temple alone again.
