Chapter 137: The old man's entrustment
"What, do you have an opinion?"
I stared coldly at the middle-aged woman and said without showing weakness.
It is said that the ghost heart is unpredictable, and today I have learned it, and I was kind enough to let these two lonely souls shelter from the rain, but I didn't expect to cause trouble for myself.
It seems that if you don't give this ghost some color, it really thinks that I, Cheng Yi, am easy to bully!
"You...... Damn! ”
The middle-aged woman roared angrily, her mouth suddenly cracked to an incredible arc, and a bloody mouth swallowed me in an instant!
This is...... Devourer!
I was shocked, I thought it was an ordinary geist, but I didn't expect it to be the infamous devouring ghost!
This devouring ghost is said to be transformed by the evil qi between heaven and earth, and lives by devouring, not only living people, but also rotting bones, animals in the mountains and wilderness, and even ordinary ghosts, are the objects of their devouring, and they are the most disgusting one in the ranks of evil ghosts.
Although this devouring ghost is terrifying, its strength is average, and I have been prepared for it, so I am not alarmed.
In the face of the devouring ghost rushing over, I slapped out a talisman and pulled out the Martial King Whip, aimed it at its mouth, and stabbed it hard!
The Martial King's whip stabbed into the devouring ghost's mouth, and it let out a terrible roar in pain, and I took out a talisman and aimed it at the devouring ghost's head and was about to slap it, ready to deal with it.
But at this moment, the little boy standing behind the Devouring Ghost suddenly made a strange sound in his body.
Squeaky ......
The little boy's bones kept misaligning, and then I saw that the little boy was on all fours, and his whole body was crawling on the ground, like a lizard, and he swished twice and climbed to the top of the pavilion.
Only then did I realize that this little boy was not an ordinary wandering spirit, but a ghost baby that had been refined!
Before I could react, the ghost baby let out a scream and lunged at me.
I quickly freed my hand and slapped the talisman over, but the ghost baby moved extremely fast, and actually turned around in mid-air, avoiding the talisman and falling under me.
Then it stretched out its claws, slammed into my clothes, turned and ran.
Not good, Soul Refining Pot Fragments!
I touched my chest, and I was immediately shocked, the purpose of this ghost baby turned out to be the fragment of the soul refining pot that I hid on my body!
I wanted to chase it, but the devouring ghost hadn't been solved yet, and it clung to my Warrior King's whip so tightly that I couldn't let go.
"Cortana!"
I shouted, and Cortana jumped in an instant and chased after the ghost baby, and in terms of speed alone, it was not much better than the ghost baby!
In a matter of seconds, Cortana got in front of the ghost baby and slammed into it.
Bang!
Cortana was knocked several meters away and rolled on the ground a few times before she could get to her feet, while the ghost baby only stopped for a moment and continued to flee into the distance.
Cortana's impact only delayed the ghost baby by less than three seconds, but it was enough for us.
Langnie and Bai Ze had already chased after him, slapping the ghost baby to the ground, and Bai Ze quickly stepped forward and pierced the ghost baby's body with a sword.
Whoop—
A black aura erupted from the ghost baby's body, and it quickly dissipated.
At the same time, I also dealt with the devouring ghost, and when I came forward, I was slightly relieved to see that Lonnie had already obtained the fragment of the Soul Refining Pot.
"Xiao Chengzi, it seems that these two evil ghosts are prepared."
Lonnie whispered to me as she handed over the fragments of the Soul Refining Pot.
I nodded, thinking back to what had happened, and my mind became more and more confused.
These two evil ghosts obviously didn't come for no reason, their purpose was obviously to snatch the fragments of the Soul Refining Pot from me.
First, the devouring ghost entangled me, and then the ghost baby used his speed to take away the fragments of the soul refining pot, and they worked together so exquisitely that they were obviously controlled by the people behind the scenes.
It's just that I just got this fragment of the soul refining pot yesterday, and I have only told the third master Hu so far, how could it be that the news leaked so quickly?
Could it be that when I was in contact with Third Master Hu, there was a spy from the Inner Five Hall next to him who heard our conversation, so he sent these two evil ghosts to rob him?
I feel more and more now that the inner five halls have simply been infiltrated into a sieve, and those spy ears and eyes are really everywhere!
For us, although these two demons did not pose much of a threat, but the sudden appearance of such a surprise caught me a little off guard.
If it didn't work out this time, who knows if the person behind the curtain will send out stronger demons behind him, and even go out to snatch this fragment of the soul refining pot himself?
I suddenly felt that now that the fragment of the Soul Refining Pot was placed on me, it didn't seem to be very safe.
"Xiao Chengzi, why don't you give this piece to my dad for safekeeping."
Seeing my concern, Lonnie suggested.
I felt that Lonnie's proposal was indeed a good proposition.
Lang Zhenxiong is a top immortal in the outer five halls, and his strength goes without saying, no demon dares to run to his side to grab something.
What's more, he is not only a great immortal of the outer five halls, but also my father-in-law, so naturally he doesn't have to worry about any trust issues.
It can be said that putting the fragments of the Soul Refining Pot next to him for safekeeping is the most suitable method now.
"Ni, just listen to you, let your father-in-law take care of it."
The discussion has been decided, and I immediately used the method of inviting immortals to summon my father-in-law.
After a while, Lang Zhenxiong's figure appeared in front of us.
"Cheng Yi, is there something wrong with calling me over?"
Lang Zhenxiong looked at me and said with a smile.
Different from Madara's seriousness and indifference, Lang Zhenxiong was full of smiles every time he saw me, but after all, this was the first time I had summoned my father-in-law, and I was still a little nervous in my heart.
"That, father-in-law, I'm ......"
"Oh, I'll tell you."
Langnie saw that I was too ink, so she took the fragment of the soul refining pot in my hand and handed it to Lang Zhenxiong.
"Dad, Cheng Yi wants you to help keep this soul refining pot fragment for the time being, no problem, right?"
I took the opportunity to tell what had just happened, and after listening, Lang Zhenxiong nodded again and again.
"It seems that there are a lot of people staring at this fragment, don't worry, I'll keep it for you, absolutely no one will rush to grab it."
When I saw that my father-in-law agreed, I was immediately overjoyed and was about to bow my head to thank me, but at this time, Lang Zhenxiong waved his hand to me.
"Don't be busy thanking me yet, Cheng Yi, I happen to have a little matter here, I need to deal with it, can you do me a favor?"
What's not to do for my father-in-law?
I hurriedly said: "Father-in-law, please instruct, as long as Cheng Yi can do it, he will go all out!" ”
"Okay."
Lang Zhenxiong nodded, took out a wooden box from his arms, and handed it to me.
