Chapter 242: Drawn Out (2nd Update)
Soon, the news that Bai Huaiyu and Bai Gongzi were about to return to the Bai family had spread within the Lingwu Sect, because they knew that the ghost official might make a move against the Bai family's son, so the attention of the Seven Clans was simply amazing, not only mobilized the seventeen Jin Dan that the Seven Clans could transfer now, and escorted him back, but even spent a lot of money to invite the masters of the Leshui Sect and the Yunhuan Sect to escort him.
Originally, this matter was carried out in secret, but the battle was so big that it was impossible to hide it.
In the end, the Seven Clans simply did not cover up the waste of energy, and directly illuminated the carriages and horses, and swept out of the mountain.
Layers of immortal clouds, Dao Dao divine light, covered by the twilight that had just fallen, embarked on the journey.
At this moment, everyone was staring at that fairy cloud.
Until this fairy cloud is out of sight, I don't know how many people are searching their stomachs, waiting for the news from this fairy cloud.
No one is stupid, they know the intentions of the Seven Clans.
Although at the beginning, the idea of using Bai Huaiyu and Bai Gongzi to fish out the ghost official was told by Fang Er Gongzi as a joke, but he had to admit that when he really couldn't find any trace of this ghost official, this was also the only way, so everyone in the Spirit Mist Sect was waiting, not knowing if the ghost official would make a move on that fairy cloud, and whether he would be able to catch him.
......
......
"The people of the Seven Clans have now walked out five hundred miles away, everything is normal, and there is no sign of encountering the ghost official!"
In the side hall where Fang Cun now lives, He Zhenzhang has an anxious face, and from time to time he will bring some new news, and several elders of their Leshui Sect have also been invited by the Seven Clans to help escort Bai Huaiyu to the Hui Clan, so naturally they can also send back the news.
"The ghost official is not stupid, I want to know that this is to fish him, how can he show his head?"
Meng Qing'er scoffed at the news brought back by Crane Zhenzhang.
"Sometimes I know that there is no way, if this ghost official must kill the son of the Bai family......"
He Zhenzhang objected in a low voice: "It is estimated that the idea of the Seven Clans is this, let the wind out, saying that after the Bai family goes back, he will retreat for ten years, which is to tell the ghost official, as long as he does not make a move this time, it will be impossible to find a chance to make a move, besides, judging from the strength that the ghost official has shown before, he is afraid that he is about to approach the cultivation of Yuan Ying, even if this time, the Seven Clans have prepared a lot of people to escort him, but if he wants to forcibly kill someone, it really can't be said that there is no hope of success at all......"
"The five masters of the Xue family are all dead, who dares to say that the ghost official must kill the son of the Bai family?"
Meng Qing'er still scoffed.
The two of them stole a glance at Fang Cun as they spoke.
The two of them are arguing here, naturally in order to arouse the curiosity of the second son and inquire more about things.
"Being able to lay out this bureau shows that Lu Xiaoyou is not bad, and he also knows why the ghost official kills people!"
Fang Cun really fulfilled their wish, and gently put down the scroll in his hand.
Seeing that he was interested, He Zhenzhang and Meng Qing'er were immediately overjoyed, and they came over one after another and asked, "Can you succeed?"
Fang Cun smiled and said, "I've seen enough!"
......
......
"Bai Huaiyu and Bai Gongzi have been sent thousands of miles away, and the ghost official still hasn't appeared!"
"The Bai family's qi refiners have also set off and rushed to greet them, and one day, they will be able to meet!"
"It seems that the ghost official will not show up this time!"
And in the Lingwu Sect, in a certain side hall, the three great elders of the Shenmu Gongzi and the Nine Immortals Sect, several elders of the Seven Clans who stayed in the Lingwu Sect, and the commander of the county government and others also sat opposite each other, compared to the He Zhenzhang and others around Fang Cun to inquire about the news, there were more people who kept sending all kinds of news to him, and he was simply tireless, and every time he made a cup of tea, there would be a new message sent over.
And in this hall, everyone also looked solemn, just listened quietly, and no one spoke for a long time.
"Is it possible to succeed?"
I don't know how long it took, the county government Xue Zhangling, couldn't help but break the silence of the field, and asked with concern.
Lu Xiao glanced at him with a smile and said, "Then it depends on what success is!"
Xue Zhangling was annoyed and said, "Of course, it is only by catching the ghost official that it can be considered a success!"
Lu Xiao shook his head lightly and said: "The matter has come to this, there is no need to hide it from the master, Lu Mou's bureau is not to catch the ghost official, if he really shoots at the Bai family's son, then we will naturally win seventy percent, and if he doesn't make a move, we can be regarded as winning fifty percent, the ghost official's cultivation is amazing, the origin is mysterious, I can win this fifty percent, I am very satisfied!"
"You...... Can't even I tell the truth?"
Xue Zhangling was a little anxious, Lu Xiao's arrangement was only known to the three elders of the Nine Immortal Sect and a few people from the Seven Clans.
Lu Xiao just saluted politely: "There are many people, and if you say it, it will be difficult to keep it safe, and please order the lord to forgive your sins!"
Xue Zhangling gritted his teeth, and after a while, he said, "Then you tell me how to count as winning ten percent, right?"
"If you want to win 100%, ......"
Lu Xiao, the god-eyed prince, and the three elders of the Nine Immortals Sect were all silent, but their thoughts fluttered slightly.
They all subconsciously thought of a place, which was a lonely side hall in the southwest corner of the Spirit Mist Sect.
......
......
"That Lu Xiaoyou's mind is still okay, that high-profile cloud, it's right to say it's a bait, it's right to say it's a trap, he didn't expect the ghost official to really shoot at that cloud, of course, the ghost official really made a move, and naturally fell into his trap, and if he didn't shoot at that cloud, the ghost official would lose at least half, but if you want to see the real excitement, you have to be in the Spirit Mist Sect!"
In the side hall, Fang Cun smiled and said to Crane Zhenzhang and Meng Qing'er.
"Within the Spirit Mist Sect?"
Crane and Meng were both a little dumbfounded: "So many people protect the Bai family's son-in-law Hui clan, and the people of the Spirit Mist Sect are about to run out!"
Fang Cun smiled and said to Crane Zhenzhang: "Old Crane, if you are fine, why don't you go to the Spirit Mist Sect to take a turn, preferably in the southwest direction?"
"Huh?"
He Zhenzhang was stunned when he heard this, and shook his head again and again: "I won't go, there must be fraud!"
Meng Qing'er was the first to react, and said in a low voice: "In other words, that extremely high-profile immortal cloud is actually not the real arrangement of the little white eyes surnamed Lu, and in the current Spirit Mist Sect, in the southwest direction, there is a bigger trap?"
Fang Cun nodded with a smile and said, "In the entire Spirit Mist Sect, that place is the most remote and desolate, so it's best to start!"
He Zhenzhang frowned and thought about it: "Who lives over there?"
The Lingwu Sect is now a distinguished guest, there are still a lot of left, and the sect master of the Dusk Sword Sect has also rushed over, but it looks gray, the two sects of Leshui and Yunhuan, there are also disciples here, and the commanders and gods of the county government are also a few left, these people are all of good status, and the place where they naturally live cannot be too bad, and the southwest corner is extremely desolate, and the people who live are also those who are not high in status and have low cultivation.
"Could it be that there is some big man quietly hiding there?"
Meng Qing'er guessed: "And this big man is actually the next person the ghost official wants to kill?"
"At this time, it is too obvious to let a big man easily change his residence, he should not do this!"
Fang Cun smiled: "Maybe that person's identity is not very high?"
Meng Qing'er tilted her head and thought about it, turned around and slapped He Zhenzhang, and then said to Fang Cun: "I really don't understand, you just say it and listen to me, is it possible for the little white face surnamed Lu to lure the ghost official out?"
Fang Cun thought for a moment and said, "Yes!"
The faces of the two of them suddenly became extremely excited.
Then at this time, suddenly a frightened voice sounded outside the hall, and someone shouted: "The ghost official has appeared......
......
......
"If you say that it is eliminated, it is really elicited?"
He Zhenzhang and Meng Qing'er were taken aback, and even the little fox who was practicing calligraphy finally couldn't hold it back, threw the pen in his hand, and rushed to the door of the hall with four claws, climbed on the shoulder of Crane Zhenzhang, and looked out to the southwest.
In their eyes, they only saw that in the southwest direction, around the temple that originally seemed the most blank and the weakest qi, suddenly there was a surge of powerful qi, as if there were countless gophers drilling out of the ground, prohibiting, and the light of the mountain protection array fell from the air at once, and the temple on that side was solid and did not show the slightest flaw in it.
"Sure enough, that's the real trap......"
He Zhenzhang and the others looked at it and swallowed nervously.
It's a pity that although they can see this excitement, the distance is too far, and their cultivation is too low, so they can't really see it concretely.
"Lure out the ghost officer?"
And behind them, Fang Cun took a moment to make up and said with a smile: "The introduction can definitely be introduced, but ......"
Before he could finish his muttering, he heard the direction of the southwest temple, and after the infinite breath surged, there was suddenly a commotion, like pouring a scoop of water into the oil pot, and countless roars and loud shouts rang out, and there seemed to be some panic in it, and it didn't sound like a big battle because of the capture of someone, but an unexpected emotional out-of-control.
"Where's the ghost officer?"
"What's wrong?
"Huh?"
The three of Little Fox, Crane Zhenzhang, and Meng Qing'er were clearly out of the way, but they were extremely nervous.
It's like the melon-eating masses in the previous life!
"Don't look at it!"
At this time, Fang Cun had already smiled softly and said, "It should be a failure!"
......
......
"How so?"
It was also at this time that the dark Spirit Mist Sect, the inconspicuous side hall on that side, was already surrounded by people.
They were either profoundly cultivated, or they were holding powerful magic weapons, they were all shocked and angry, looking at the scene inside this side hall, only to feel angry and frightened, as if there was a trace of coolness, from the depths of the bones, slowly seeping out.
In this hall, there was another person with a different head, and a beheading order was inserted next to it.
Their ploy worked, and the ghost official did lure people out.
But he appeared, killed someone, and disappeared again!
