Chapter 17: A Hundred Ghosts in Distress

Ghosts, a kind of spirit incarnated by the will of the soul after death, have the same thoughts and actions as people, because there is no physical attachment, so the spirit body of ghosts has no weight, and can be suspended in the air or pass through some solid things.

Ghosts are yin and afraid of the sun, so most of the ghosts are active at night, but only most of them, because there is a small number of cultivated ghosts who are not afraid of the sun at all.

But the newly dead ghosts, such as gray or white ghosts, generally do not dare to approach mortals because of their weak spirits. That's because everyone has a certain amount of yang energy in their body, especially those who are cultivators or some people with special qualities, and their yang energy is even stronger. Therefore, the saying that has been circulated in China for thousands of years is that 'people are afraid of ghosts for three points, and ghosts are afraid of people for seven points.' It's not unreasonable.

The wind suddenly rose, on the soil slope, Li Ge looked at more than ten ghost shadows floating out of the mountains and forests, cold sweat flowed, he had lived in China for twenty-four years, he had never seen a ghost, but coming to this Ming Dynasty, it really opened his eyes.

Among these more than ten ghosts, there are old and young, men and women, all of them are illusory figures floating in the air like white paper.

"Hee~hee~" A cold laugh sounded, and the illusory shadow of a curly-haired old lady in a white shroud floated to the edge of the dirt slope, a pale red circle of light flashed on her body, and on her pale and pale face, a half-foot-long red meat tongue hung straight out of her mouth, and the ghost stared at Li Ge and smiled coldly, and then the figure flickered and floated towards the formation under the slope.

Li Ge, who was shocked into a cold sweat, turned his head to look at the figure of the old lady in white, and when he saw the formation, the whole person was stunned. I saw that the old lady, who was originally the size of an ordinary person, turned into a ghost thing the size of a palm and shining red after entering the Seven Star Lock Demon.

At this time, there are hundreds of yellow, red, and black three-color light spots shining in the array, and it is obvious that these small light clusters are all transformed by ghosts.

The smaller ghosts fluttered scattered in the formation, and when some ghosts floated to the edge of the formation, a golden light flashed on the edge of the formation to block them.

"Master, this~ Is this the Seven Star Lock Evil Array?" Li Ge's surprised tone was full of puzzlement, he couldn't have imagined that a small formation could actually have such power, not only could trap the ghost in it, but also shrink its spirit body.

"Yes, this is a big formation of our cloth faction, its function..."At this point, a dazzling blue light suddenly flashed on the post road not far away, Lai Laodao's face sank, and he tightened the copper coin sword in his hand, and said softly, "It's here." ”

Qingxu and Mao Yuanshan, who had been sitting quietly on the side, saw the blue light in the road, and their faces became equally solemn.

"Is it a devil's complaint?" Li Ge muttered to himself, staring at the blue light floating in the post road without blinking.

After the blue light appeared, the speed was not fast at first, but it fluttered slowly and faintly, and when it was about thirty-four meters away from the formation, it suddenly increased its speed, and it was only two blinks of an eye that it floated to the side of the formation.

Looking at the Qingguang Regiment on the side of the formation, Li Ge's tense nerves couldn't help but relax a little, because in the Qingguang Regiment that floated to him only about ten miles away, he was just a fat little chubby doll with a cute face.

This little chubby baby only wears a belly pocket all over her body, with fleshy arms and calves, a round little face, and her big eyes blink and blink, which is very cute. Although it is cute, the skin on this little chubby baby is showing a strange white.

"It's so fragrant~" The little fat baby put his fat little finger in his mouth and sucked it, staring at the corpse fragrant wood in the array, as if in his eyes, he couldn't see the more than 100 ghosts in the array. After looking at it for about three breaths, the little fat figure flickered and floated directly into the formation, but his small figure was still the same as before, and it did not become smaller like other ghosts.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Lai Laodao's nervous face showed a hint of relief, and he glanced at the two old men beside him who also showed a hint of relief, and said urgently, "Qingxu, Lao Mao, let's start, I will protect the Dharma for you." ”

The old monk nodded when he heard this, held a string of Buddhist beads in front of him in his left hand, knocked on the wooden fish with his right hand, and recited the scriptures aloud in his mouth. The scriptures he read were indistinct, and he couldn't make out a single exact word, but after listening to them, he felt comfortable and could give up everything.

After the cyan imp entered the formation, the red-clothed old Taoist picked up the wooden sword that he had placed on his lap before, got up and walked down the dirt slope quickly, standing on the side of the formation like a dancing god, waving the wooden sword and silently reciting the incantation.

At this time, although Li Ge was a little scared, he was more curious in his heart, because he couldn't understand the scene in front of him at all, what the hell was this? What was the predecessor of Yuanshan doing? What was the Qingxu monk doing? He didn't know anything about all this.

Just as Li Ge looked at the group of ghosts in the array curiously, the dazzling blue light shining on the so-called devil's resentful demon suddenly converged, and immediately his fleshy little face became hideous, and as his facial expression changed, sarcomas of different sizes grew on his smooth skin. When his whole body was covered in sarcoma, his cute little face turned into a very human face, and two rows of sharp fangs grew out of his mouth.

The small figure of the transformed devil resentful demon shook to the edge of the formation, trying to get out of it, but every time he floated to the edge of the formation, a golden light flashed from the side of the formation, and this light was like a door, blocking him abruptly.

"Master, what the hell is this?" Seeing the sudden change of the little fat boy, Li Ge's heart jumped violently, and he reached out and hugged the thigh of Lai Laodao beside him.

"This is the devil's grudge. Lai Changsheng stroked his apprentice's head and comforted, "What? ”

"But Master, I..." At this point, Li Ge didn't know what to say, and let go of the old Taoist's thigh tremblingly.

"I'm afraid of a hammer, didn't I give you a piece of jade? It's a talisman jade handed down from your ancestors, and if you wear it on your body, ordinary ghosts can't hurt you in the slightest. Lai Laodao flicked the door of the apprentice's small brain, and the melody attached his hand behind him and stared at the side of the formation.

"Master Zu's talisman jade, isn't it like Uncle Ai's jade? But my jade should be a little more bullish than his jade. Taking out the jade hanging around his neck, Li Ge looked at it carefully, and some feelings rose in his heart, this jade is so valuable, it seems that Old Man Lai is still good to me.

When he was grabbing the jade and looking at it, a dazzling white light suddenly lit up in the array, and Li Ge hurriedly stuffed the jade back into his clothes and looked towards the array. I saw that on the ground next to the black wood in the array, a circular circle of light about one meter in diameter appeared, and this circle of light flashed with white light, and the circle was black and black, as if there was water flowing, and a bridge wrapped in fog could be faintly seen.

After the white circle appeared, Mao Yuanshan stopped the action of dancing the great god, put the wooden sword behind him and walked back to the dirt slope quickly, sat in front of the three small wooden carvings, pinched his hands and silently recited the incantation.
