Twenty miles southwest of Donglai Mountain, there is a seaside town called Jiaohai. Compared with the important town of the Central Plains, although Jiaohai Town is not worth mentioning, but in the vicinity of Donglai Mountain, it can also be regarded as a prosperous place with all kinds of organs, the town has both the official yamen, and there are post station restaurants, and tea houses and shops can be seen everywhere.

The fishermen and traders who come and go to Jiaohai every day, the three religions and nine streams are endless, and there is a rather magnificent dragon king temple in the east of this Jiaohai town, which has the meaning of guarding one side.

The Dragon King Temple is divided into two courtyards before and after, the front yard temple is dedicated to the Dragon King, the incense is continuous all day long, there are ten people in the temple every day who are responsible for taking care of the special person to take care of, at the end of each month, there are another ten people to change shifts, a total of four classes, each class is led by a Taoist person about forty years old.

After a long time, the good men and women in the town gradually became familiar with these people, but people still couldn't tell where these people who were good at words and deeds, and were kind and benevolent, only found that they all had a jade pendant hanging around their waists, and the word "east" was engraved on it.

The backyard of the Dragon King Temple has always forbidden outsiders to enter, and when the backyard gate is occasionally opened, those who come out of it are some extraordinary Taoists, who are occasionally bumped into by neighbors, and they are all said to be some fairy characters.

Whenever there is a curious person who wants to find out, they will always be politely rejected by the Taoists here. It is said that there are also people who rely on the strength of wine to break through, and later I heard that the drunk man woke up and lay on the big bluestone at the foot of Donglai Mountain.

Early in the morning, the gate of the backyard of the Dragon King Temple opened again, and two young men walked out of it with two horses, one black and one white. One of them, the fair-skinned man with a bookish face went out and said: "I thought I could fly all the way to Liaodong with a paper armor horse, but I didn't expect to ride a horse in the end!"

The other man with sword eyebrows and long eyes looked a little older, and said with a smile: "The paper armor horse can only be used in a place where the spiritual energy is abundant, and when the spiritual energy is thin when it comes out of the Cave Heaven Secret Realm, the paper armor horse will be invalid." ”

These two people are Liang Yu and Qin Ruoming, who have just returned to the world from the Taiqing Palace Cave, and after a few simple words of laughter, they turned over and rode straight to the market along the back wall of the Dragon King Temple, and then went all the way to the north.

Although Liang Yu and Qin Ruoming are both good cultivators, this whole day's running is not tiring for them, but the two horses are not so good day and night, and the time is not urgent, so they stayed in an inn in a nearby town.

It was night, when everything was silent, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse outside the window, and Liang Yu and Qin Ruoming meditated in the guest room according to the daily cultivation method.

Due to his previous injury, Liang Yu took an inward look before entering the meditation, and saw that the water of the two major rivers symbolizing the second vein of Ren Du was a little unsmooth, and the mountains, rivers, forests and seas that symbolized the internal organs and the sun, moon and stars symbolizing other meridians were also a little dim.

Amuhe looked up to the sky and said: "In the future, you must use your method carefully, otherwise don't blame me for taking advantage of the situation! Go and see your flying sword, it has been stopped there for two days." ”

It turns out that there is really something wrong with this Jiuyang jade seal... It's just that Liang Yu couldn't figure it out.

In desperation, he opened his eyes and wanted to summon Hu Xiaoxiao to discuss, but when he subconsciously looked at the willow wood card, he suddenly remembered a person-Liang Yu! The original owner of Liang Yu's spiritual root and spirit bone!

Two years ago, Liang Yu had entrusted his old mother to Liang Yu with a wisp of remnant soul! Now that two years have passed, Liang Yu has almost forgotten all about it! Could it be that the flying sword failed because of this?

It's time to fulfill this request... Liang Yu thought secretly, just this time I went to Liaodong, Brother Liang Yu, I must have gone to your wish!

"You can be regarded as awake!" Hu Xiaoxiao had already left Liumupai, and she was standing in the guest room at this time, looking thankful.

Liang Yu touched the willow wood card on his waist and said, "Xiao Daxian, you ...... in the middle of the night."

Qin Ruoming had already opened his eyes, and he said with a somewhat solemn expression: "This place is a little weird..."

"Shhhh

Neither of them was silent when they heard this, and for a moment there was a sudden silence in the room, and a babbling tune came in from outside the window......

At first glance, this bleak tune actually made people's scalps tingle, but soon Liang Yu and Qin Ruoming frowned, because they both felt a kind of traction from the depths of their souls, as if they were called by someone, and there was an urge in their consciousness to obey the dispatch!

After all, the two of them have a good cultivation, so they quickly stabilized their minds, Liang Yu followed the voice to the window, gently poked the window paper with his fingers and looked out, and couldn't help but gasp: "Senior brother... Outside..."

Qin Ruoming quietly leaned forward, and through the hole in the window paper, he saw a team of fully armored soldiers and horses lined up in a long line from far and near, looking in the direction of Mount Tai, and the town where they were located was a must-pass place.

Under the moonlight, the cold light on the armor of the soldiers and horses made people shudder, but the most numb thing was that the whole team was lifeless, those soldiers looked indifferent, their bodies were covered with gray mist, and some soldiers had carrion and maggots on their faces!

"This is ?...," Liang Yu said in a low voice.

Qin Ruoming moved away from the window disapprovingly, and continued to lean on the pillow leisurely, while Hu Xiaoxiao's face was a little grim and said: "Yin soldier aisle..."

Although Liang Yu has been practicing in the Eastern Immortal Sect for nearly two years, he has always studied the cultivation method, but as for these real Yin Soul Ghost Things, he has not really come into contact with them, he swallowed his saliva and said: "Ghost ?......"

Qin Ruoming said with a smile: "You are still afraid of ghosts as a cultivator? Not to mention these stragglers, even some ghosts and spirits who have the Tao may not be able to do anything to a person like you!

As they were talking, they heard a sporadic sound of footsteps outside the room, followed by the sound of the deadbolt being opened...

Qin Ruoming took the first step and opened the door a little bit to look out, only to see that the innkeeper had already thrown the deadbolt aside, behind him, the proprietress and the two young men were standing motionless with their arms down, while the boss's son just walked out of the door on the other side with his eyes closed.

The boy looked to be about ten years old, his arms drooping as he walked, and what was even more strange was that he walked on the soles of his forefeet, and his body was completely up and down with the tune outside the door.

"Hehe, something is wrong..."Qin Ruoming said while looking at it, "The Yin soldiers are in the aisle, don't disturb the living beings, but these people are obviously affected..."

Liang Yu had already seen it behind him, and said in a low voice: "Senior brother... Aren't these people going out now and colliding with that group of Yin soldiers? We've bumped into this, so we can't stand idly by, right?"

As he spoke, the tenants of several other rooms also came out one after another, all of them with their eyes closed, tiptoeing like the boss's son, up and down with the tune!

"Whew-"

"Squeak......

A gust of wind rushed in, the door opened, and there were ten people in the inn, including the host and guests, and immediately walked towards the door with the same strange posture!

"Let's go, let's take a look!" Qin Ruoming said in a low voice, shaking his hand and burning the two rune papers in his palm, "This way I am not afraid of being discovered." ”

The two brothers followed the ten people and walked in the same posture at the rear, and Hu Xiaoxiao also got back into the willow card.

Liang Yu and Qin Ruoming both squinted their eyes, and as soon as they left the inn, they saw that the night that was originally bright and moonlit had become cloudy at this time, and gusts of wind swept by, blowing the shadows of the surrounding trees like a demon, which was really terrifying!

There was an indescribable depressing atmosphere in the air, and scattered people on both sides of the road in the town walked out one after another, and they followed the tune of a hundred turns and thousands of times, and came to Liang Yu and their marching team, and the Yin soldiers they saw before were like escorting prisoners, and they followed neatly behind......

"All the monarchs have achieved great success, and the silver flowers and jade trees are all over the gold; if you ask where to go on this trip, the Dongyue Emperor is a guest. ”

In mid-air, a few indistinguishable chanting voices suddenly sounded, sounding subdued and abrupt, and the rhythm actually complemented the previous tune quite well, and then four women in neon clothes floated forward from the back of the team in mid-air.

When the four women landed at the front of the procession, no more people on either side continued to walk out, and the whole group immediately stopped in place, but all the people still stood on tiptoe.

Most of these people were obviously summoned from their sleep, and only a few of them looked like scholars who were reading at night from their clothes, but no matter what their status, they all had their eyes closed, and the corners of their mouths were slightly upturned, showing an indescribable strange smile!

The faces of the four women were as pale as paper, with huge blushes painted on their cheeks, and the most amazing thing was that the facial features of the four of them were exactly the same, and they did not look very coordinated, as if they had been put together.

Just as Liang Yu and Qin Ruoming were secretly speculating, the four women suddenly danced their arms stiffly, and at the same time recited again: "Yin Si is orderly, wait for the truth: the underworld is long, and the wandering soul is not frightened." Don't think about the past, karma is established. The Yin soldiers escorted, and everything was peaceful. Up!"

As the last word "rise" was pronounced by them for a long time, all the people fell to the ground almost at the same time, and between the four women and the group of Yin soldiers, there stood a group of dull-looking, translucent souls, and at the same time, Liang Yu, Qin Ruoming, and Hu Xiaoxiao, who suddenly appeared, stood out among them...

"Hey... It seems to be exposed?" Hu Xiaoxiao whispered.

Liang Yu gently tugged her and said, "Shhhh

I saw one of the four women, leaning forward slightly, and then suddenly went straight forward, flickering all the way, and soon came to Liang Yu and Qin Ruoming, her height was similar to Liang Yu, and her pale face was less than a foot away from the two!

She looked curiously at the two big living people who were still standing, although she didn't say a word, but against the backdrop of the dead silence around her, the corners of her mouth that slowly pouted down made a "rustle" sound like paper being folded...

"Click!"

The woman raised her face suddenly, her chin suddenly fell to her chest, and the blood-red mouth that was facing Liang Yu was open, emitting a choking smell of paper ash, and from it came the indistinguishable voice just now: "Who are you waiting for?"
