As soon as Yao Rong opened his eyes, he realized that something was wrong.

It was so dark that there was not a trace of light, the air was dull and silent, not to mention the sound of the wind, she couldn't even hear her own heartbeat or breathing.

Trying to stretch out his right hand, Yao Rong was sure that he was not lying in the coffin.

Well, that at least shows that she's not a corpse.

With a thought in his mind, Yao Rong found that he had floated.

So she's in a ghost state now?

Just as he was pondering, the system transmitted the memories and plot.

This is a modern metaphysical world where humans and ghosts coexist.

After the vast majority of people die, they will enter the underworld and reincarnate again, while a very small number of people will become ghosts after they die because they are too obsessed and other reasons.

If there are too many ghosts, it is easy to affect the order of human society.

Therefore, since ancient times, there has been a line of heavenly masters who are specifically responsible for exploring feng shui and driving away evil spirits and catching ghosts.

The original body was born in a family of Heavenly Masters who had long since declined, and had a very high talent for cultivation since he was a child, and was pinned on by his father.

The original body did not live up to his father's expectations, cultivated diligently, and at the age of twenty-two, he emerged in the Heavenly Master Competition, and became attached to Xie Zhou, the young patriarch of the Xie family.

After getting married, the two had a son named Xie Xiu.

When Xie Xiu was two years old, the Xie family received a message: a certain mountain forest has formed a gloomy place, and there may be a powerful ghost.

This mountain forest is not far from the Xie family, and Xie Zhou, as the young patriarch, led the team to investigate, but he completely lost contact with the outside world, and the soul lamp left in the Xie family also flickered and dimmed, obviously hanging by a thread.

The original body was worried about her husband and decided to rush to help.

Before leaving, the original body entrusted Xie Xiu to Xie Xiu's own grandfather, the head of the Xie family.

This shady place is quite strange, and even though the original body made a lot of preparations, he still failed to find her husband and his party, but was robbed and killed.

Xie Zhou is the only son of Patriarch Xie, and the team of people brought by Xie Zhou is the elite of Patriarch Xie's lineage. With the death of them and the original body, the strength of the patriarch's line was greatly hit, and the patriarch suddenly became seriously ill, and many people in the Xie family were ready to move.

The Xie family fell into infighting.

In the chaos, Xie Xiu disappeared.

Except for the patriarch actively looking for Xie Xiu's whereabouts, the rest of the Xie family did nothing.

When the patriarch couldn't hold on, the Xie family was on the throne, and no one cared whether Xie Xiu was dead or alive.

On the other side, Xie Xiu did not die.

He was exiled and sent to an orphanage by the police.

He still vaguely remembered his surname Xie, and the director of the orphanage gave him a new name: Xie Yinian.

Later, Xie Yinian was adopted twice and returned to an orphanage twice.

Many children in the orphanage are disabled, Xie Yinian is not only healthy, but also looks very pleasing, he should not be worried about being adopted, but who knows that he has encountered so many ups and downs.

The dean was sad for him, but Xie Yinian comforted the dean: "Maybe I was born with a shallow relationship with my parents." From now on, the orphanage will be my home, and the director and the children in the orphanage will be my relatives. ”

After finishing junior high school, Xie Yinian did not continue his studies, but went out to work.

Washing dishes, setting up stalls, and delivering takeaways, Xie Yinian has tried many jobs.

He works diligently, is clever, knows how to read people's faces, and if life can go on like this, it can be considered calm and smooth.

It's a pity that such a peaceful life didn't last long.

At the age of sixteen, Xie Yi began to see ghosts frequently.

He was at a loss for what to do, let alone who to talk to.

At this moment, Xie Yinian met a middle-aged man who was full of eccentricity.

The middle-aged man, who claimed to be surnamed Zhang, donated a large sum of money to the orphanage, which was very good to the children in the orphanage.

When he saw Xie Yinian, he explained the abnormality on Xie Yinian's body in one word, and said that he was a heavenly master, and he donated money to do good deeds in order to accumulate merit.

With the help of this Zhang Tianshi, Xie Yinian finally didn't have to worry about seeing a ghost as soon as he went out.

He was shy in his pockets, but he still insisted on transferring most of his savings to Zhang Tianshi.

Zhang Tianshi did not accept his money, but gave him an exorcism charm and told him: "You have a special physique, and you are easy to provoke evil spirits. I can only help you for a while, if you want to protect yourself, you still have to cultivate. ”

Xie Yinian was surprised and delighted: "Can I also cultivate?" ”

Zhang Tianshi gave him a book of introductory exercises and a formation, and after he was familiar with the introductory exercises, he drew a formation to draw qi into the body: "You have a fate with me." When you draw qi into your body, you can officially worship me as a teacher. ”

Xie Yinian respectfully accepted these things.

At first, he just casually looked at the exercises, and he hadn't made up his mind to cultivate.

After a period of time, the spell left by Zhang Tianshi on him failed, and he saw the ghost again, and one day he even almost died at the hands of the ghost, but he still relied on the exorcism charm left by Zhang Tianshi to save his life.

At this point, Xie Yinian was completely convinced of Zhang Tianshi.

But what Xie Yinian didn't expect was that after he finished drawing the formation, what was waiting for him was not a life-changing road, but a terrifying-looking ghost.

When he was confused, Xie Yinian wondered what was going on.

Did he draw the wrong formation, or did Zhang Tianshi want to harm him.

If Zhang Tianshi wants to harm him, what is he trying to do?

What can a person like him be plotted by the other party?

Could it be that what the other party wants is his life?

……

[Ding, the plot has been transmitted, task: save Xie Yinian and make him feel happy]

[The system has detected that Xie Yinian's current doom value is 85, please act as soon as possible]

It is a mountain forest located deep in the mountains.

Beyond this mountain forest, the sun is shining and the animals are active.

But in this mountain forest, there is not a ray of light, not a living creature.

Because the Xie family sacrificed a large number of Heavenly Masters here, coupled with the spread of the evil aura here, but there was no trace of ghost activities, over time, no Heavenly Master was willing to come.

In the mountains and forests, Yao Rong raised his hand and waved.

Yin Qi poured out from her fingertips, condensing into a pale blue ghost fire, and the gloom hovered beside her, illuminating all directions.

"According to the laws of this world, after the death of the Heavenly Master, it should not be able to turn into a ghost."

[It stands to reason that it is. The Heavenly Master and the ghosts are thousand-year-old enemies, but whoever steps into the Heavenly Master will be directly taken over by the underworld after death. 】

Yao Rong asked, "Then what is my situation now?" ”

She died thirteen years ago.

Now it has survived in another form.

The system did not immediately reply, and carefully probed the data.

Yao Rong lowered his eyes and tried to control his body.

She can walk around the mountains and forests at will, but she can't leave the mountains and forests, and it seems that she is bound to this gloomy place.

Since ancient times, the land of evil has been prone to breed evil spirits and nourish ghosts, and she can break the law and turn into a powerful ghost after she dies, does it have anything to do with this place?

As soon as this idea emerged, it was systematically confirmed:

[The place of yin and evil is filled with a large amount of yin and evil qi, it is a place of great evil, and the original body died here tragically, which is likely to lead to some kind of mutation]

Yao Rong sighed lightly: "It is rumored that there will be a powerful ghost born in the place of evil. This rumor can't be blamed on me. ”

The system didn't speak, and Yao Rong didn't dwell on this question, and instead asked, "I seem to be bound to this place, how can I leave?" ”

[After refining all the yin and evil qi in this place, you can enter and exit freely]

Yao Rong frowned slightly, tried a few more times, and found that he really couldn't get out now: "Yi Nian's bad luck value is 85, is he celebrating his sixteenth birthday now?" ”

[Zhang Tianshi has already appeared, and there is still a month before Xie Yinian's death. 】

Yao Rong took a deep breath: "It seems that I have to hurry." ”

She has done countless missions, has been to the supernatural world a few times, and has been a celestial master a few times, although it is the first time to be a ghost, but after a little experiment, she knows how to absorb these evil qi.

The efficiency of automatic absorption is quite different from that of passive absorption.

Yao Rong could feel the Yin Qi entering her body continuously.

This gloomy place can make Xie Zhou, the original body and others robbed, which is enough to show its strength.

Yao Rong estimated that if she successfully absorbed and refined these yin and evil qi, she should be able to directly enter the ranks of the ghost kings.

Thinking so, Yao Rong calmed down and began refining with all his might.

Time passed like water, little by little, and Yao Rong still maintained the same posture as before, until the sunlight penetrated the dense treetop branches and leaves, falling on her eyelashes.

Yao Rong slowly opened his eyes.

She stood up and tried again, only to find that the confinement to her was minimal, and she could leave in three days at most.

The rest of these yin qi did not need to be deliberately refined, Yao Rong absorbed it while wandering in the mountains and forests.

What are you looking for? The system wondered.

"I'm looking for ......"

Yao Rong didn't finish his words, and stopped suddenly.

In front of the line of sight, more than twenty white bones sat quietly.

These white bones form a circle, and all of them maintain the posture of casting spells before death.

And in the middle of the circle, there is a white skeleton sitting upright, which seems to be the person presiding over the formation.

On the tip of its index finger, it wears a black magic ring.

Twenty-five years ago, Xie Zhou, the young patriarch of the Xie family, turned eighteen, and the patriarch of the Xie family spent countless treasures to create a superb magic weapon for parents and children, in order to congratulate parents and children on the gift of adulthood.

Since Xie Zhou entered the Yin Evil Land, the Xuanhei Ring has also disappeared from the world's sight with him.

"I see."

Ghosts don't cry.

But when he saw this Xuanhei magic ring, Yao Rong actually felt the urge to cry.

This is the original body left on her, the feelings for Xie Zhou.

"I know why the original body can turn into a ghost."

"If you have an obsession in your heart, even if you become a ghost and are spurned by all the heavenly masters, and you will never enter reincarnation, do you want to take Xie Zhou home......

As if sensing something, the Xuanhei Ring suddenly emitted a faint light.

Yao Rong squatted down, condensed the illusory palm into a solid body with Yin Qi, and gently touched the Xuanhei magic ring.

The Black Ring quieted down again.

After a while, Yao Rong stood up, chose a location with excellent feng shui in the mountains and forests, and began to dig a grave: "I can't take you back to the ancestral grave of the Xie family for the time being, I can only collect the bones for you for the time being, and he will take you home in the future." ”

Xie Zhou's grave is the largest.

Yao Rong held his white bones with yin qi and gently put them into the tomb.

She did not bury it immediately, but continued to search in the mountains and forests, and finally found another white skeleton on the other side of the mountain forest.

This is Yao Rong's own bones.

At the time of her death, she was only a kilometer away from Xie Zhou.

And now, they are finally buried together.

Before covering the yellow sand, Yao Rong took off the Xuanhei magic ring: "When Xiu'er turns eighteen, I will give him this ring as a gift." ”

This Xuanhei Law Ring is worthy of being carefully crafted by Patriarch Xie.

Xie Zhou and his party had a lot of treasures, but for more than ten years, those treasures were eroded by the evil qi, and none of them remained.

Only the Black Ring was unscathed.

After burying everyone, Yao Rong found a few broken trees, and used the Yin Qi to turn the blade into a blade, cut out twenty-four tombstones, carved words one by one, and stood in front of the tomb.

"I'm a ghost now, you say, what will happen if I recite the Sutra of the Past Life to them?"

After a moment of silence, the system said: [I won't even die of you]

Yao Rong: "......"

She was obviously asking very seriously.

"I've mastered so many Heavenly Master spells, and I'm good at drawing talismans, but now I've become a ghost, and the spells are definitely not used, but what about the talismans?"

If she wants to use the spell, she must mobilize her own cultivation, so she will definitely not be able to use the Heavenly Master's spell.

The talisman can be drawn, and the aura of heaven and earth from the outside world is stored in the talisman, isn't this also good?

It's the first time the system has heard that ghosts want to draw talismans.

It's a real ghost drawing.

[Can you mobilize the aura of heaven and earth now?] 】

Yao Rong said: "The aura of heaven and earth belongs to all living beings in the world. The existence of ghosts in this world means that ghosts are also one of the creatures in the world. Why can't it be transferred. ”

The system is speechless.

It realizes one thing.

These taskers who have experienced countless worlds, in addition to their ability and mentality are far superior to newcomers, their excavation of the laws of the world is also far superior to newcomers.

There are many implicit rules that even the system itself may not be able to detect, but Yao Rong can detect the clues at the first time.

didn't wait for the system's answer, and Yao Rong didn't care.

She lowered her eyes and recited the Sutra of the Past Lives to them over and over again.

After reading for a long time, there was still no discomfort in his body, and Yao Rong put his mind at ease.

As a ghost, he doesn't feel tired, and even after doing so many things just now, Yao Rong is still very energetic.

She decided to keep exploring.

The system saw that she was eager to dig three feet into the ground, and couldn't help but pop up again: [Host, what are you looking for? 】

"This is a deep mountain and old forest, not a mass grave, except for some dead animals, nothing will die. Why did it suddenly become a place of darkness, you say? ”

There should always be a reason.

The system pondered for a moment: [Do you suspect that there are ghost soldiers here? 】

Yao Rong sensed some kind of dangerous and powerful aura, and smiled slightly: "It's not a suspicion now. ”

"Landlord, here's the deposit and the first month's rent, you count."

At the door of the basement, Xie Yinian handed over six hundred yuan.

In the hot summer, he wore a coat and raised the collar of his coat extremely high, but he couldn't hide the purple and black strangulation marks.

"Okay, the key is for you." The owner stared at his neck several times, but still handed the key to Xie Yinian.

Xie Yinian lifted the bag on his back and pushed the suitcase into the cramped basement.

He is only 16 years old this year, and his height has already jumped to 1.75 meters.

If you grow too fast, your body will look a little thin and thin.

The hair was left untidy for a while, falling down on the forehead and ears, softening the angular side of the face.

It's a pity that the heavy dark circles under his eyes, the haggard and sleepiness that can't be concealed between his eyebrows, have ruined the handsomeness of his facial features.

There were no chairs in the basement, so Xie Yinian took off his coat, took off his schoolbag, and sat on the mattress in a daze.

Xie Yinian couldn't help but think back to what happened during this time-

Since two months ago, he has been encountering ghosts.

A month ago, he met Zhang Tianshi, who came to the orphanage to do charity, and with the help of Zhang Tianshi, he spent a few days of peace, and also got an exorcism charm from Zhang Tianshi.

It's just that the good times didn't last long, and the night before yesterday, he finished playing and walked home to rest, but he felt a cool breeze behind him.

Before he could turn around, a stream of long, bloody hair wrapped around his neck from behind.

Just as he was on the verge of choking, the exorcism talisman he had hidden in his pocket emitted a golden light that shone on those hairs.

There was a terrible cry behind him, followed by the long hair loosening.

Xie Yinian didn't dare to look back, so he crawled home and fled home, only to find that the exorcism charm had turned into ashes.

It must have been the exorcism charm that saved him. Xie Yinian thought to himself.

There was only one exorcism talisman, and Xie Yinian was worried that the long-haired female ghost would come to kill him again, and he couldn't contact Zhang Tianshi, so he could only pin his hopes on the formation given by Zhang Tianshi.

He originally shared a room with three friends from the orphanage, but Xie Yinian was worried that his use of the formation would affect the three friends, so he moved out temporarily and rented this basement single room by himself.

Thinking of this, Xie Yinian came back to his senses slightly.

The basement is not ventilated, there is no air conditioning, only a fan is circling.

Xie Yinian only sat for a while, and his whole body was soaked.

He went to get some water, washed his face, and then carried out the cinnabar and other things he bought, and began to draw and place them according to the formation diagram.

The formation diagram was not complicated, and Xie Yinian quickly set it up.

He sat cross-legged in the middle of the formation, reciting the trick that was not cumbersome.

Just after reading the first sentence, Xie Yinian suddenly felt a chill all over his body, and the temperature around him seemed to have dropped a lot.

Xie Yinian's hairs stood on end, but thinking of those ghosts hiding in the shadows, he simply closed his eyes and continued to read.

Tick, tick.

There seems to be the sound of water echoing.

A damp and fishy smell permeated the room.

Xie Yinian's heart was uneasy, but the formula was only two short sentences, and he could read it in less than ten seconds, and he couldn't stop the precipice at all.

He pursed his lips, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a face with completely upside-down facial features that was close to him, and his long blood-soaked hair climbed up to his neck in an instant.

"Hell!!"

Xie Yinian screamed and fainted on the spot.

Yao Rong, who had just arrived: "......"

Newly arrived system: [......]

Yao Rong stretched out his hand and pulled the female ghost's hair and threw the female ghost aside.

The female ghost screamed, her ghost aura rising, and she continued to pounce on Xie Yinian.

Yao Rong's yin qi was released.

The female ghost froze in place, turned around sharply, and tried to escape through the wall, but found that she couldn't move.

"Since you dare to scare him, then use you to test the power of the ghost soldiers."

Yao Rong turned his right hand, and a long sword with a black body appeared in front of her, and the hilt fell into her palm, slashing out with her thoughts.

The female ghost's eyes at the mouth widened suddenly, and her body was pierced by the long sword, directly blurring a few points, and a large amount of yin qi was swallowed by the long sword.

The female ghost trembled, and her eyes showed a look of fear.

"You have the power of a contract in you, and you are an evil ghost raised by the Heavenly Master?"

Yao Rong saw her heels at a glance: "Your master is that Zhang Tianshi." ”

Without waiting for the female ghost to answer, she casually slashed out two more swords.

The female ghost was scattered on the spot.

Yao Rong walked up to Xie Yinian, leaned over to look at his clear eyebrows, and for a long time, he was angry and funny: "With this guts, you dare to draw a formation casually, no wonder you will fall for someone else's way." ”

Xie Yinian had a terrible nightmare.

In the dream, a female ghost with upside-down facial features wrapped around his neck, saying that she wanted to marry him, which frightened him so much that he couldn't wait to yell "What do you like about me, can't I change it?"

Then he woke up with a scare.

Xie Yinian was shaken by the incandescent light above his head, and he instantly came to his senses.

He sat up from the ground, first touched his neck, and then touched his heart, making sure that his heart was still pounding, and immediately patted his chest: "It's okay, it's okay, it's just a dream." ”

As soon as the words fell, Xie Yinian faintly felt that something was wrong and raised his head suddenly.

On the unfurnished mattress sat a young woman in her twenties.

A black sword lay across her knee.

Her facial features are beautiful, her black hair is like ink, and even if she has no expression, she is as beautiful as a dream.

But at this moment, Xie Yinian didn't have the heart to appreciate any beauty at all, he only felt that the sky was going to kill him: "You, you, you, ......"

As he spoke, he quietly shrank back, trying to stay away from the female ghost.

Yao Rong lowered his eyes and glanced at him.

Xie Yinian was even more afraid: "I have no grievances with you, why do you want to harm me......"

Yao Rong stated the facts: "I saved you just now. ”

Xie Yinian was stunned, plucked up his courage, and quietly looked at Yao Rong's facial features, but he happened to meet Yao Rong's smiling eyes, and he was trembling with fright.

However, this trembling also made him regain a trace of calm.

Just now, the female ghost's facial features are upside down, and she likes to use her hair as a weapon to attack people.

The girl in front of her looked like a human and carried a long sword......

Could it be ......

Xie Yinian was very moved: "Could it be that you are a Heavenly Master who sees injustice and acts bravely!?" ”

Yao Rong's eyebrows raised slightly, revealing a somewhat strange look. ：，，
