After the news of Luoyang spread, the originally bleak Luoyang City became lively again. Whether it is the peddlers and pawns on the rivers and lakes, or the heroes of the green forest, they have flocked to this declining ancient city from all directions. Outside the city pass, from time to time, a team of men and horses came from afar, and then stationed in the city.

Qin Huai and Qianqian also walked in the crowd. At this moment, Qin Huai was dressed as a rich son, while Qianqian changed into a set of maid clothes and followed closely behind.

After Qin Huai avoided several surveillances without danger, he finally came to the city pass. I saw a huge notice posted at the city gate, which was written by Yang Situ, the prince of the dynasty, inviting strange people from all walks of life to go to Luoyang to help the imperial court.

Three days later, Yang Situ will personally hold a ceremony to worship the heavens, bringing together heroes from all walks of life to solve the mystery of the Demon Cave.

It seems that the response of the imperial court is not slow. ”

Qin Huai read this notice, the content was sprinkled, the tone was quite sincere, and between the lines, it also revealed a lot of useful atmosphere. Looking at the endless stream of Luoyang City now, this notice must have been widely distributed all over the world a few days ago, and at that time, it was just when the demonic qi had just appeared.

As soon as Qin Huai walked into the city, he saw that there were crowds of people, the streets were bustling, and there was an endless stream of people coming and going, and it didn't look like he was shrouded in a haze at all.

On both sides of the street, there are temporary stalls of all sizes, whether it is sundries and weapons, rare objects, or play utensils, all of which are readily available. As long as you can think of something, you can find it here, as if overnight, the big market of Chang'an City moved here.

However, seeing such a scene, Qin Huai sighed inexplicably.

As the saying goes, all living beings are suffering, and who is not surviving in the cracks? What are these traders who come from afar, willing to risk being eroded by demonic energy, to set up stalls here?

"Wow! It turns out that this is Luoyang City, but I can see it, hehe......hee"

Behind Qin Huai, Qianqian was extremely excited when she saw this scene, jumping around like a rabbit, and she went to the stall next to her without paying attention, eager to see all these things.

"Wow, Childe, how do you play this?"

"Hey, Childe, what is this?"

"Childe, can you eat this?"

"Childe ......"

"Childe ......"

Qianqian seemed to have a great interest in these things in the world, and dragged Qin Huai around Luoyang City alive, until it was almost dark, and then she was forcibly pulled into the inn by Qin Huai.

Strange to say, as soon as it got dark, this Luoyang City immediately quieted down. At sunset, all the vendors gathered their belongings at the same moment and hurried away. When it was already dark, there was no longer a single figure on the street, and the whole of Luoyang fell into a deathly silence again.

Qin Huai found a simple inn to live in, and at this moment, the entire Luoyang City was overcrowded, and it was not easy to find a place to live.

However, although these inns are overcrowded, they are not as lively as usual, and the people who live in them are all closed doors, and if there is nothing important, they will never take half a step out of the door, and the atmosphere suddenly falls into a strange silence.

At this time, the second shopkeeper gently pushed open the door and brought a pot of fine bamboo leaves.

"Xiao Er, what's going on here, why is it so quiet at night?"

Qin Huai lifted the flask and asked.

"Guest, you're here today, aren't you?"

Xiao Er smiled enthusiastically, and then said: "Don't you know, since the black ore was dug up at the foot of that mountain, there have been a series of deaths nearby, and the deceased are all hideous and miserable. ”

"I know that. Qin Huai smiled faintly.

The shopkeeper cleared his throat, and then said: "This matter also caused panic at the beginning, but two days ago, a Taoist priest came to the Guogong Mansion and personally went to the foot of the mountain to investigate, and then did another ......."

"This Taoist priest is really divine, since then, there has been no murder near Luoyang during the day...... It's not overnight, I advise Gongzi not to walk out of the inn easily, otherwise there will be more luck and less luck. ”

The shopkeeper spat and introduced what had happened in Luoyang in the past two days, and when he left, he still didn't forget to remind Qin Huai to stay in the house.

"Listening to what the shopkeeper said, that person is a bit of a Taoist, but if it is infested by demonic energy, how can the safety of this house be guaranteed?"

Qin Huai frowned, and suddenly pushed open the window, only to see that it was pitch black in his vision, and even the starlight was a lot dimmer. The night sky shouldn't be so dark this summer.

"Huh?"

Suddenly, Qin Huai's face showed a burst of surprise, and then a cloud of clear qi popped out, only to see that on the opposite window curtain, a bright golden rune suddenly appeared.

Qin Huai looked through this window, and saw that on the houses on both sides of the street, such a rune was carved in front of each window.

"What a good idea!"

Qin Huai couldn't help but let out a burst of admiration, these runes were swept away, they were natural, there was no trace of carving, obviously when casting spells, both strength and strength were just right.

And the caster of the spell is able to punch thousands of runes into each window at the same time, and each window requires different forces due to its location and distance, but the caster can punch these runes into it with a single blow, and the score is exactly the same. How profound should the knowledge used in this be?

However, this is not the most difficult, the difficult thing is that these runes can still remain for several days without the support of spiritual energy, which is really unheard of. With what Qin Huai had learned in the Taoist Sect in the past, there was no way to do this.

Just as Qin Huai was savoring these runes, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he saw a few shadows suddenly floating out of the deadly silent street in front of him, although it was almost dim to the point of invisibility, but it was still keenly captured by Qin Huai.

"These are ......"

"Ahh

Suddenly, an exclamation came into Qin Huai's ears, and at some point, Qianqian had come to Qin Huai's side, looking at the resentful spirits floating on the street, and exclaimed.

"How did all this Yellow Springs filth end up here?"

Qin Huai couldn't help frowning, this Huangquan resentful spirit was a creature of the underworld, born from the resentment of heaven and earth, and it was the most filthy thing in the Three Realms.

It has been recorded in the "Three Realms of Strange Things" collected by the Taoist sect that the resentful spirits are born in the nine shadows and ten places, do not belong to the six realms, do not enter the reincarnation, and when the ancient gods and demons are fighting, they are brought to the world by the demons of the underworld, invading people's minds and eroding people's souls, which is a disaster for a while.

After the war between gods and demons, the world was illuminated by the gods of the fairy world, and the resentful spirits had nothing to hide, and they had all been eliminated, but I didn't expect to reappear in this Luoyang.

"Uncle once said that if after death, if a person's heart is obsessed with immortality and cannot enter the six realms of reincarnation, it is possible to be reborn in the land of the Nine Shadows and turn into a resentful spirit......

"They're actually pathetic......"

At this time, I saw that Qianqian suddenly sacrificed the bell on her chest, emitting a layer of strange golden light, which slowly spread like a circle of ripples.

"Let go of your obsession and reincarnate!"

Qianqian recited a mantra and made a gesture of prayer, and suddenly there was a pleasant bell in the air, which immersed her heart and spleen, and her heart was relaxed and happy.

With this strange golden light sprinkled, the bodies of those resentful spirits suddenly shook and struggled violently. But then, a pleasant bell sounded, and the resentful spirit gradually quieted down...... Eventually, these spirits turned into bits of light and dissipated between heaven and earth.

"Qianqian, what are you?"

Seeing that Qianqian had easily reduced these resentful spirits, Qin Huai couldn't help but widen his eyes and asked.

"Hee-hee, this is what my uncle taught me, and it is the first time I have used it today, but I didn't expect it to succeed so easily. ”

Qianqian showed a hint of joy, took the bell back, and hung it back on her chest.

Qin Huai showed a faint smile on his face, but he was secretly shocked in his heart. This Qianqian's cultivation is mediocre, and it looks like it has just formed a demon pill. But the method she had just cast was unusually profound, and with his eyes, he couldn't even see how she had ignited these ghosts.

Perhaps because of the excessive consumption of spiritual power, Qianqian yawned as she spoke, and suddenly became tired, and without saying a few words, she went back to her room to rest.

When Qianqian fell asleep, Qin Huai finally breathed a sigh of relief. This little girl tortured herself for a day, and now she finally feels tired, and she can finally take a good rest.

However, before Qin Huai could lie down, another exclamation came from next door.

"Ahh......h Help!"

Qin Huai's face changed, and before he had time to get dressed, he rushed into Qianqian's room like an arrow.

As soon as she entered the room, Qianqian pounced, hugged Qin Huai tightly, and refused to let go of anything.

"What's wrong, Qianqian?"

Qin Huai frowned, only to see that the room was empty, how could there be any movement?

But what happened next made Qin Huai smile bitterly.

Qianqian buried her head in Qin Huai's arms, locked Qin Huai with her limbs, and said in shock: "Childe...... Yes...... There are rats!"

Qin Huai almost didn't spit out a mouthful of old blood.

Qin Huai smiled bitterly: "This...... Qianqian, you let me go first. ”

"No!

Qin Huai's face sank, and he said, "Qianqian...... Men and women don't kiss, come down quickly!"

"Uncle said, I don't come down if you are in a hurry!" Qianqian used her hands and feet to lock Qin Huai tightly.

"Alright, the rats are scared away by you, come down quickly. ”

"Huh? Really?"

Qianqian turned her head around, and after making sure that there were no mice, she let go of Qin Huai.

Qin Huai couldn't laugh or cry, "Qianqian...... You're a demon!"

Qianqian showed a surprised expression, as if she had heard something she had never heard before, and her two big eyes stared straight at Qin Huai, "Childe, what do you mean...... Can't demons be afraid of rats?"

Qin Huai was helpless and said, "You are a demon of the Dark Mountain, you are afraid of a mouse, wouldn't it ruin your uncle's prestige if you say it?"

"It seems to be ...... too"

Qianqian bit her lip and nodded thoughtfully, but in less than a moment, she looked at Qin Huai helplessly, "Childe, I'm still afraid of ......"

Qin Huai was helpless, so he had to smile bitterly.

But this is just the beginning, and next, Qin Huai turned from helpless to helpless.

"Childe, I'm so hungry, can you get me something to eat?" Qianqian looked at Qin Huai with a pair of big eyes, looking pitiful.

"Childe, can you bring some more food?"

"Childe, I'm afraid, can you help me light a candle?"

"Childe ......"

Qin Huai was frantic for a while, "Qianqian, we said before that you pretended to be my maid!"

"That's right, didn't you say it's good to pretend?" Qianqian chewed the food brought by Qin Huai with a natural expression.
