Chapter 173: Let's Play a Game
……
The hunt in Sui Ancheng has been going on for thousands of years.
In the beginning, it was the residents of the city who were struggling to survive spontaneously organized death squads to solve those evil spirits with the determination to die, in exchange for the happiness and peace of their relatives and future generations for a lifetime.
Later, with the favor of the immortals, the people who went out to fight became stronger and stronger, and the threat of the evil spirits outside became lower and lower, and they began to train their juniors to participate in the war, accumulating experience in fighting against the evil spirits.
Later, even the juniors began to appear in the Tiangang Realm, and the main force of the battle began to become these juniors, and only those powerful evils that rarely appeared would be dealt with by the elders who accompanied them.
Nowadays, this action has even gradually become a recreational action for young people.
That's right, take pleasure in hunting evil spirits.
After all, deaths and injuries are rare.
Moreover, the evil ones caught can also be exchanged for military merits, and those with more military merits will also have more face among their peers.
Han You followed the Tao family brothers and sisters in a carriage to the open space at the foot of a mountain outside the city, where a lot of carriages had been parked, and there were many rich young masters and young ladies who were here as an outing party, and the laughter continued.
The arrival of the Tao family brothers and sisters did not attract the attention of many people, but most of them only glanced at them a few times, and a few of them also smiled at them: "Didn't the eldest prince Tao come again?"
"Don't ask nonsense, maybe Master Tao has moved the immortal with some painstaking efforts, and tomorrow he will be promoted to the transcendent realm?"
"Hahaha, that's really amazing, that Young Master Tao is the first person in our generation in Sui Ancheng to be promoted to the transcendent realm, we have to shoot a good sycophant!"
A few people were talking and laughing, but from these tones it didn't sound very friendly.
The Tao brothers and sisters smiled a little awkwardly.
"Big brother, he has his own considerations, how dare we younger brothers and sisters say anything......
In my heart, I secretly slandered myself.
If the eldest brother comes over in person, these people are afraid that they will not be able to stammer, and where do they dare to say cool things, they will only dare to play tricks on their two concubines and concubines.
In addition, a few people noticed Han You.
"Why is there a new face? Why don't you tell us about it?"
Tao Ming said, "Oh, this is the child of a good friend of my father's lordship, and he is staying with us for the time being, because he has not participated in this kind of hunting operation before, so I will bring him to see him."
By the way, he also introduced Han You: "This is the son of Lord Chen, who is in charge of the household department in the city...... This is ......."
These are indeed the children of the big officials in the city, so it's no wonder they don't speak very politely.
When those few people heard that Han You was an outsider, and his strength was only in the early days of the Tiangang Realm, they didn't have much interest, so they simply nodded in greeting.
At the end, Tao Ming asked, "By the way, I don't know how many people have seen our second brother?"
"Tao Feng? That guy is in the old place, and with Lu Shao, he can hunt down that escaped evil with good strength faster than anyone."
"Thank you......
Tao Ming and Tao Yi then took him to the entrance of the uphill path at the front, where there were a few guard-like people guarding them, and when they saw Tao Ming and a few people coming, they immediately stretched out their hands to stop them.
"A few people, please stay, there is a hunting competition going on above, and no outsiders can interfere."
"Understood."
Tao Ming smiled: "Actually, this time I also came to take my friend to broaden his horizons, so I also want to go up and have a look, and I promise not to interfere in the competition casually."
The guards looked at them seriously: "Is it Young Master Tao Ming of the Tao family?"
"That's right."
Several of the guards looked at each other, nodded, and lowered their holding hands.
"Let's go up, but remember to be careful, in addition to that powerful evil on it, there are also a few small grandmaster-level evil spirits, and if you don't pay attention, it's still a little dangerous."
The path up the mountain is relatively rugged, but Shengsheng has been stepped out of a road that is easy to walk, and it seems that there are definitely a lot of roads to and fro on a regular basis.
Tao Mingyi
As he walked, he pointed around and introduced him.
"Brother Han, look over there, there used to be a mass grave......
"This is also ......."
Not long after walking the mountain road, the other party pointed out to him at least three mass graves, each of which was said to have buried no less than thousands of people.
It can be said that most of the mountain is made up of countless corpses and bones.
"Have so many people ever died here?" Han You asked.
"yes...... Too many people have died......" Tao Ming sighed, "Brother Han, you may not know how many people died here in the dark ages of the past thousands of years."
"And those who have been slain by evil spirits have been horribly polluted and have become new evil ......
Tao Ming turned and pointed into the distance.
"And in a place like this, there are countless evils in this land, and there are far more evils than we think, and they can't be solved at all."
"Immortals...... Won't you help?"
"How can the immortals pay attention to us mortals all the time?" Tao Ming sighed and shook his head, "What's more, as long as there is not a too strong evil now, we can solve it ourselves."
It's just that his steps suddenly paused, turned his head vigilantly to look around, and finally locked in a position.
"Wait, there seems to be traces of evil in the vicinity, and it's not too strong, we should be able to use it to practice our hands."
Han You turned his head to look in that direction.
If you feel it carefully, there is indeed an evil aura.
"How did you find out?"
"There's this." Tao Ming's palm was spread out, and inside was a yellow talisman that was emitting a faint yellow light, and the direction of the light was pointing there.
Han You became more and more interested in these things.
With the guidance of the Yellow Fu, they did find the evil cult very quickly.
A little boy sitting on a tree branch, dangling his legs.
However, his face was pale, his eyes were blood-red, and he was not a normal person at first glance.
"Big brother big sister, let's play the game!" He grinned, but his voice was high-pitched, like a naughty child.
"Okay, what are you going to play?" Tao Ming and Tao Yi glanced at each other and nodded very skillfully.
The boy laughed evilly, "Come and play hide and seek, I'll be a ghost, I'll catch you, and if I find you, you'll lose!"
"Come on."
Tao Ming agreed.
"Count to zero and begin! Hundred...... Ninety-nine......" The boy blindfolded and began to count aloud.
The two brothers and sisters immediately took Han You to find a suitable hiding place.
Han You was a little inexplicable.
He thought that a big war was going to break out just now, but how did it turn out to play games with the other party?
"What is this going to do?"
Tao Ming explained, "Because evil spirits are very difficult to kill, if we want to completely subdue the ghosts in the Tiangang Realm, we need to use the power of the Immortal Rules."
"Rule ......"
"Yes, Brother Han, the immortal rules we borrowed are called games. As long as the game is won, the opponent will automatically be suppressed and become our spoils."
"This is the easiest and safest way to deal with evil at the moment."
Han You was curious: "Then what if the game is lost?"
"You won't lose." Tao Ming smiled mysteriously and took out a few charms from his arms.
"With that, it's hard for us to lose."
Tao Yi took a talisman from his hand with some impatience: "This is a hidden talisman, and it is also effective against evil spirits. Stick it on your body and make sure that guy can't find us."
