Chen Cuo's eyes widened a little more, staring at the thin old hand, and goosebumps all over his body!

"Ahh

The next moment, there was a tearing pain in his head, and Chen Cuo couldn't help but scream.

In front of him, the rune paper fluttered.

He endured the pain, and saw the rune paper on his forehead fall down, burning on its own, and turning to ashes in a blink of an eye! Then, a tyrannical intent welled up in Chen Cuo's heart, and his eyes rolled, looking at the figure in front of him, and he had an urge to tear Zhou Youzi apart!

"Roar!!

With a roar, in the pitch-black whirlpool, the hideous ghost poked its head out, with a green face and fangs, and a bloody mouth!

It grabbed the edge of the vortex with both hands and stretched it out with all its might, faintly trying to break free!

Chen Cuo was awakened by the roar, and couldn't help but be afraid for a while, I don't know why Fang Cai had such a thought.

At the same time, the whirlpool tightened, making the fierce ghost scream, and then, on its ugly face, the bloody mouth opened wider and wider, stretched out its long scarlet tongue, and threw it towards Zhou Youzi!

"Prince, retreat!" Zhou Youzi flicked his sleeves, and a stack of rune papers was thrown out, arranged in the air, listed one by one, and the vermilion runes were quickly formed on it, "This evil ghost was originally formless, living in the words of people's hearts, because of your thoughts, you can have a complete appearance, it is the time to surrender!"

Chen Cuo retreated again and again, until he reached the root of the wall.

Smack!

Ahead, the demon's long tongue was like a spear, piercing through the rune paper, and in Zhou Youzi's surprised gaze, it directly pierced his chest, penetrating through the front and back, and the blood exploded!

With a muffled snort, this half-heart Dao leader fell directly to the ground!

"That's it?"

Chen Cuo looked at this scene blankly, and his mind did not turn around.

After all, looking at what Zhou Youzi did before, it seemed that he was well prepared, but he was pierced in one face and fell to the ground, what is the matter?

Brush!

The long tongue pierced the Taoist, and the evil ghost retracted it, and then the copper bell-like eyes turned, and the protruding pupils looked at Chen Cuo!

Suddenly, Chen Cuo's body was cold, and he couldn't move again!

"You...... I...... My ......" The evil ghost spat out slurred words, his eyes glowed bloody, and he smiled with a slanted mouth!

The will to materialize the evil ghost surfaced in the bottom of Chen Cuo's heart-

Greedy!

You are me, I am you!

This is to replace the greed of the old mistakes!

Chen Cuo's heart was not good, but there was no way to retreat, and cold sweat flowed on his head.

"You can't sit still! Daochang Zhou, you are really unreliable, the evil ghost has been drawn out, and you lie down, isn't this a pit person, how should I get rid of the ghost? This ghost seems to have a lot to do with me, according to the setting, there should be any restrictions, think about it! Think about it!"

Just as he racked his brains, the demon stretched out his hands again, violently tore at the dark vortex, and heard the "crunch crunch", this vortex was much softer than before, and he tore most of it, like a broken hole, poking out half of his body, skinny and skinny, thin as firewood.

Chen Cuo gasped and eagerly glanced around, trying to find something to defend himself.

The evil ghost stretched out his hands, and those hands suddenly became longer, and he grabbed Chen Cuo!

Chen Cuo was anxious, his left hand instinctively touched a gourd on his chest, and his right hand blocked in front of him.

The next moment, a faint glimmer of light shone through him.

"Whew!!"

The demon suddenly screamed, and his hands hurriedly retracted!

Chen Cuo raised his head, his face puzzled.

Immediately after, a voice was suddenly heard—

"Don't be afraid, don't shake your mind!

Chen Cuo was stunned for a moment, and then heard a "disease" again!

He suddenly came back to his senses, turned his head and looked, and saw a golden light flashing on the hand of Zhou Youzi who had fallen to the ground, and a seed appeared, which instantly elongated, turned into a long sword, broke through the air, and stabbed straight towards the evil ghost!

"Roar!"

The demon roared, and the long tongue came out again!

But then the long tongue was pierced and crushed by the golden sword!

The demon screamed, withdrew his hands, and quickly retreated into the black vortex, but the long sword also followed, and in an instant, there was a howl from the vortex!

Syllable!

With a soft sound, the black vortex exploded and disappeared.

"Hoo ......"

Chen Cuo breathed a long sigh of relief, leaning against the wall with his whole body paralyzed, the coldness on his body receded, and he felt warm.

All around, the cold dissipated, and the light returned to normal, as if nothing had happened just now—if not counting the bloody corner of the mouth of Zhou Youzi, who was staggering up from the ground.

"Dao Chief, is that the evil ghost in the text?" he ......" Chen Cuo wanted to go over to help, but he paused halfway through, his face showing vigilance, "He seems to be full of malice towards me." ”

"This is natural!"

Zhou Youzi saw Chen Cuo's abnormal state, he didn't care, got up and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, sat down cross-legged by the bedside, took out the porcelain bottle from his arms, poured out a pill, swallowed it, and then said: "That evil ghost looks like a ghost, it is really the essence of human thought, and even the introduction of the root flow of the Dao of the incense Dao, and the monk who refines the incense comes here, or which god and earth spirit descends, or even the ghost of the ghost to return to the sun, capture and refine it, and immediately cultivate it to a big rise, and even break the bottleneck......

"Good guy, that thing is hideous and terrifying, it's still a Tang monk?" Chen Cuo was secretly speechless, but when the words fell, a series of explosions of "boom boom" broke out in his ears, like a landslide and a crack, making him jump on the spot.

Immediately, the sound disappeared.

"What's wrong?" Zhou Youzi saw his strange appearance, and hurriedly asked, "You must be calm, and your mind must not rise and fall again, otherwise it will be difficult to stop the evil ghost coming again." ”

"Didn't the Taoist Chief?" Chen Cuo calmed down and couldn't help but be surprised, and then thought that when he wrote "Painted Skin" that day, he had a similar abnormality.

Could it be that it was a sign at the time?

Zhou Youzi looked at him a few times and saw that he was fine, so he said: "You don't have to be afraid, that evil ghost is the essence of thought, but it is born because of you, it stands to reason that it should be the most suitable for you to swallow and refine, but unfortunately, you just have no intention of creating it, and there is no way to converge." ”

The method of convergence refining?

Chen Cuo secretly remembered it in his heart, but seeing that Zhou Youzi didn't mean to reveal it further, he didn't ask any questions, and asked instead: "Daoist Fang Cai mentioned that this evil ghost was originally invisible, and it was born because of my will, could it be that Daoist Fang Cai asked me to recall the appearance of the evil ghost......

"That's good!" Zhou Youzi nodded, "That evil ghost was originally just a thought, it was the thought of everyone born because of words and sentences, formless and substantial, scattered in everyone's hearts and memories, and the medium only kept circulating articles and sentences, this kind of appearance is impossible to capture, so the poor way makes you feel excited, and then recalls and outlines it yourself, and shapes the specific appearance for the evil ghost." ”

He took a deep breath, his pale face gradually turned bloody, and said, "Now it seems that you are indeed the one who created the evil spirit, and you are the true author of that article!"

Chen Cuo touched his forehead, and finally understood why Zhou Youzi had raided.

"Don't blame the prince, you have the same mind with the evil ghost, if you don't raid, he must have known it long ago and will be able to resist it," Zhou Youzi apologized again, and then changed his words, "On the other hand, the evil ghost is really rootless duckweed now, not a real individual, if you want to get out of this situation, the only way is to turn against the guest and swallow the prince!"

Chen Cuo shuddered.

Zhou Youzi's face was gloomy, and he continued: "Only by occupying the person, chance, and position of the prince can he break out of the cocoon and be reborn, and the secret of painting the skin is equivalent to conforming to people's wishes, maybe he can directly step into the second step of seeking the Tao, that is, he is extraordinary, and he has obtained the root flow of the Dao!"

Chen Cuoben was deliberating on the strangeness of the essay written that day, but he was shocked when he heard this.

"Swallow me?" this ......" He remembered the greed of the evil ghost before, and knew that it was not false, so he hurriedly said, "Dao Chief, your skills are profound, and the golden light sword just now broke the evil ghost in one fell swoop, could it be that he can still survive?"

Zhou Youzi shook his head and sighed: "Poor Dao thought that this evil ghost was newly formed, and it should be a shallow Tao, so he immediately made a decision, and he wanted to take advantage of his unstable foothold and cut it off first, so that the prince and the prince came here to talk, but in a short period of time, it has been cultivated to a high level!"

He glanced at Chen Cuo.

"Poor Dao has a limited understanding of the Incense Dao, but according to the situation, it is guessed that the Junhou article is too exciting, which resonates in the hearts of too many people, and invisibly makes the evil ghost take root in the hearts of many people, so although the birth is short, it is already profound, and it is not something that Poor Dao can deal with!"

Speaking of this, Zhou Youzi smiled wryly.
