Chapter 135: Demon Wind
"It's all hearsay, and the green-sleeved girl doesn't have to scare herself. Besides, you are in the Bai family, who doesn't know that it is a famous family of exorcists, where is there a demon who dares to commit it without fear of death?" Shen Luo comforted.
"That's right, haha...... Anyway, as long as it's not a monster, it's an ordinary monster or a ghost, and the head of the family and the elders go out casually, it's enough to destroy it. When the little girl heard this, she smiled to herself.
When Shen Luo heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, and he asked tentatively: "Green-sleeved girl, do you know about the Bai family's exorcism back then?"
"That was a hundred and ten years ago, except for the elders in the house, only the elderly people know some of the inside information, and I naturally don't know. Well, I've heard some rumors about exorcisms lately, and I don't know how many of them are true and how many are false. Green Sleeves frowned and thought for a while before he changed his words.
"It's okay left and right, can you tell me about it?" Shen Luo said with a curious look.
"Okay, then I'll talk about it. Outside Jianye City, near Ziyun Mountain, there is a place called Taoyuan Village...... "Green Sleeves also seemed to be opened up and began to narrate.
It turns out that in this place called Taoyuan Village, there has been a huge peach tree since ancient times, and the people in the village have multiplied from generation to generation, but they don't know when this ancient tree originated, only that its age is not less than 1,000 years.
Legend has it that this ancient peach tree blooms every year, but it has never borne fruit for hundreds of years, although the people in the village are puzzled, but they also regard this ancient tree as auspicious, good to take care of.
But one year, when the peach blossoms were at their peak, a demonic wind suddenly descended from the sky, wrapped in thick black smoke and surrounded the peach tree, making it impossible for the villagers to get close, and the branches and leaves on the peach tree also quickly decayed and fell one after another.
At that time, the village was a person named Qin Shou'an, in order to protect the peach tree, he carried a torch and a firewood knife, trying to drive away the demon wind, but instead of succeeding, he also put himself in.
After that, the demon wind became even more rampant, not only controlling Qin Shou'an, but also controlling many lynx and wild boars, causing them to attack the villagers.
The villagers were miserable, so they pooled money to invite the immortal master outside to go to subdue the demons, but they went to three or four in a row, all of them were meat buns and dogs, and there was no return.
In the end, in order to save her father, the daughter of the village Zheng wanted to come to Jianye City for help after going through difficulties, and finally happened to meet a hero in the valley period on the road, and was touched by the filial piety of this woman, and went to Taoyuan Village with her to subdue the demon, but found that the demon wind seemed to be a monster that was not low in cultivation, and Qin Shou'an and many mountain creatures in the village had been demonized by it, and became very murderous and cruel.
The hero soon got into a bitter battle, and finally managed to save the entire village, but he was nowhere to be found.
"What about the demon wind, have you ever been killed?" Shen Luo asked after listening.
"It wasn't said in the rumors, but since Taoyuan Village has been free of demons since then, I think it should be killed. Greensleeves thought for a moment and said.
Shen Luo groaned to himself, but faintly felt that the "demon wind" was most likely not really killed, but what the specific situation was, I'm afraid only the "hero" knew it.
After Green Sleeves finished speaking, he chatted with Shen Luo about some other rumors and anecdotes.
Not long after, Bai Xiaotian came to urge, saying that he was going to have a banquet and dinner, so he stopped the conversation between the two.
Shen Luo changed into a brand-new round-necked green robe, put the stone box back on his body, and then followed Bai Xiaotian to the banquet.
......
At night, Shen Luo planned to take out the jade pendant and check the "Pure Yang Treasure Book" exercises recorded in it, but not long after returning to the room, drowsiness hit him, and he fell asleep on the bed.
He was groggy and didn't know how long he had been asleep, and suddenly felt a chill on his body, his body trembled, and he subconsciously reached out to grab it beside him, trying to pull the quilt, but the quilt was not caught, but he touched a cold hard object in his hand.
Shen Luo frowned at first, but then opened his eyes suddenly, and his consciousness instantly sobered up.
He sat up suddenly, and there was an immediate "clanging" sound around him, but several short guns fell from his body, colliding with each other and rolling to the ground.
Shen Luo looked down and saw that it was the flaming short spears he had obtained from Commander Wu when he was sleepwalking in Jialan Temple.
He reacted immediately, and he fell asleep again!
"Ouch......"
"Help......"
Before he could figure out what was going on, there was a terrible wail for help behind him.
He suddenly turned around and looked, and found that on the ground a few feet away behind him, there were seven or eight thick bronze pillars, which were covered with copper rust and entwined with ropes formed by the condensation of black qi.
The green-faced fanged, hideous-looking ghosts were tied up by these ropes and fixed to the copper pillars.
For some reason, these ghosts all look wilted and drooping, and some of them are missing arms and legs, and they look inexplicably miserable.
Shen Luo subconsciously grabbed two short guns and took five or six steps back.
The sound of footsteps attracted the attention of the ghosts, and they all looked up, and when they saw Shen Luo, they immediately became in a commotion.
A green-headed and red-eyed creature screamed excitedly, baring its fangs, a hanged ghost with its tongue hanging down to its abdomen stretched out a pair of dry hands towards him, and a severed head in his hand, shaking at him......
Shen Luo was terrified for a while, stabilized his mind, and looked around again, only to find that the area under him, including those bronze pillars, was a circular altar that covered a large area.
The center of the altar was filled with rammed earth, but the surrounding area was layered on top of each other, densely stacked with white bones and skeletons built up with human heads, all of which reflected green light in the altar, and Shen Luo's scalp tingled for a while.
He glanced up, the sky above him was overcast, a thick layer of yellow clouds pressed the canopy very low, the atmosphere was strange and oppressive, and the terrain around the altar was open, there was no sign of any living creatures, and it looked like a dead and silent wilderness.
"Shen Luo, Shen Luo......"
At this moment, Shen Luo suddenly heard a shout behind him.
He hurriedly looked back, and saw a crimson ghost with the head of a horse, shouting his name loudly with his long horse's mouth open, and waving his only remaining one-arm excitedly.
Shen Luo was shocked in his heart, he really didn't know why this ghost thing knew his name.
He took a closer look at the ghost creature with a horse face, only to find that the clothes he was wearing were different from the other ghosts next to him, and it looked a bit like the official clothes worn by the officials.
"What the hell are you, how do you know my name?" Shen Luo asked cautiously and frowned.
