Back at Xinglinju, the first thing Meng Hao did was to carve all the remaining wooden beads of the Huai Mu bracelet into requiem talismans for emergencies, and then made a number of spirit talismans.

Three days have passed since Meng Hao prepared all the things, and in the past three days, disciples have continued to walk out of the inner gate, and more than half of the thirty-seven generations of disciples alone have disappeared, making the inner gate of Maoshan look a little desolate.

Meng Hao came to the peak teleportation array of the sixth Mao Peak, took out his disciple token and recited the words, a purple light flashed, Meng Hao's figure disappeared into the array, and when he reappeared, he had already returned to the outer courtyard when he came.

On the way to the residence of the outer disciples, Meng Hao did not see the scene of the inner disciples gathering, and compared to when he came, there was no change in the Maoshan Mountain in the outside world.

"Meng Hao, you finally came out, I thought you wouldn't come out until Halloween?" As soon as Meng Hao came to the disciple's residence, he saw the figures of Jing Shu and Chen Yu, and the two of them excitedly stepped forward to say hello.

"Aren't there many disciples coming out?Why is the outer gate still so deserted?" Meng Hao was puzzled, he had seen those outer disciples all the way, and there were almost no inner disciples.

"Most of the inner disciples have already gone down the mountain to guard the town, and if they all wait here for Halloween to come before acting, it will be too late. Jingshu explained.

"Now that we're all together, let's go get the town guard. Chen Yu said.

"What do you mean, can't you decide the location of the town by yourself?" Meng Hao was a little puzzled.

"Of course not, with Maoshan as the center, there are several nearby towns and villages, if you arrange it yourself, it won't be chaotic, so the elders will announce the location of the town guard. ”

"Usually in the town where there are many people, there is a high incidence of ghosts, and many disciples will be sent to guard the town, and the elders will also secretly observe and assist. ”

"Most of the nearby villages retain the custom of worshipping relatives, and ghosts basically don't make trouble, but there are no absolutes, and they will also send disciples. Jing Shu's words helped Meng Hao solve his confusion.

"I see," Meng Hao suddenly said.

The three of them came to the side hall of Wanfu Palace, Meng Hao was pleasantly surprised to see Tao unchanged's figure, and then he thought that he was sitting at the outside mountain gate this year, otherwise he would not have gone to Meng'an Village.

"Yes, I actually worshipped the second elder of the Ge family as a teacher, and it was in vain that I led you into the mountain. Tao Yi looked at Meng Hao and praised.

"I also have to thank Elder Tao, otherwise I wouldn't have stepped into the Immortal Cultivation Realm. Meng Hao sincerely thanked.

"Besides, the three of you are going to guard together, aren't you?" Tao asked with a wave of his hand.

"Yes, the three of us together. Jing Shu was the first to speak.

It is a good thing to earn merit by guarding the world against ghosts doing evil, so strong disciples will guard one place alone, and all the merit obtained will belong to themselves.

There is still a gap in the strength of Meng Hao and the others, for the sake of safety, it is better to form a team, which is also the choice of most Qi Condensation Realm disciples.

"Okay, this is the place you are going to guard, and the paper money. Tao Yiyi waved his hand, and a yellow talisman appeared in Jing Shu's hand, and at the same time, an extra bulging package appeared in front of the three of them, which was full of paper money.

"Thank you, Elder Tao. Jing Shu glanced at the town guard address on the yellow charm and was immediately happy.

If you are guarding a location where there is a lot of trouble, the more work you do and the more merit you will get.

The location of the three guards is a downtown street in Jiangding City, located in the north of the river, which belongs to the prosperous stage, and it is no wonder that Jingshu is happy.

When passing by the front hall of Wanfu Palace, Meng Hao found that there were many tourists here, all of whom came to buy incense, candles, and paper money, obviously retaining the custom to worship relatives on the Midyear Festival.

Incense, candles, paper money, and other worship things are also divided into grades, and the best ones are undoubtedly those issued by the gate, so many people will go up the mountain to buy them.

On the way to the town guard location, the costumes of the three-person Taoist attracted the attention of many people, some in awe, some in curiosity, and some in disdain. After all, the three of them were immortal cultivators, and they didn't care too much about the eyes of these people.

Finally, taking advantage of the darkness, the three of them came to the street to be guarded, and walked into a small hotel at the end of the street.

This made the young couple who originally planned to go in on the side stunned for a moment, wondering what the Taoist priest was doing at the hotel? Could it be that they have a dragon yang fetish?

"Please call your boss. The three of them came directly to the front desk and said to the little girl at the front desk.

"Okay, wait a minute. "The little sister at the front desk is the first time to see the Taoist priest to stay in the hotel, and obediently notified the boss to come over.

The boss was a middle-aged man, and after seeing the three of them, his eyes were fixed and he invited the three into the office. Without waiting for the boss to speak, Chen Yu directly took out the token of the inner door of Maoshan and handed it over.

The boss carefully inspected it and respectfully returned it to Chen Yu, and said, "Cui Zhi'an, a disciple of Maoshan Outer Gate, visited the three senior brothers. ”

Maoshan has developed for so many years, and has its own business in various places, and the property of this hotel is owned by Maoshan, and the owner is actually a disciple of Maoshan Waimen who helps Maoshan take care of this hotel.

"Senior brother, you're welcome, it's another year of Halloween, and the elder sent the three of me to guard this street, and please give us a room. Chen Yu took back the token and said politely.

"I've been ready for the three senior brothers for a long time, please come with me. Cui Zhi'an knew very well that the disciples of Maoshan would go down the mountain during the Halloween Festival, and he had already prepared for it.

"For fear of being disturbed by outsiders, all the rooms on the top floor have not been open for the past few days, and they have been cleaned, and the three senior brothers can choose to live in them at will," Cui Zhi'an explained as he led the three to the top floor of the hotel.

After all, it is a hotel, and there are often couples who come here for trysts, for fear of affecting the cultivation of the three senior brothers, Cui Zhian can be said to be very intentional.

"Senior brother is tired, this magic medicine will be given to you, although it is not a panacea, but it can also keep you healthy for three years after taking it. Chen Yu nodded with satisfaction, and then handed a bottle of magic medicine to Cui Zhi'an's hand.

"Thank you, senior brother, if you have something, you can tell me. Cui Zhian's eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly thanked. I didn't expect these senior brothers this year to be very righteous, unlike the senior brothers in previous years who didn't give anything at all.

At night, the downtown street is very lively, with a surging flow of people and the shouting of vendors on the street. Meng Hao stood outside the window and watched the night view of the city, and he couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

Although it was only two months of cultivation in the mountains, Meng Hao felt that life in the city was already far away from him.

"Hey, it's those two girls. When Meng Hao looked down at the downtown area, he unexpectedly saw the two girls he had seen on the train, who were the two girls who Tao had given the amulet to him.

The two were working in a café next to the street, and they didn't encounter anything bad with their appearance, and they didn't know if it was because the spirit talisman given by Tao Yifu protected the two, or if it didn't happen.

Soon it was Halloween Day, as an immortal cultivator, Meng Hao obviously felt the difference between today and the past, and immediately took out a spirit rune and recited the words.

"Heaven is clear and clear, the earth is ghostly, and heaven and earth have spirits, and they are manifested. Now !!"

Meng Hao, who opened the eyes of the sky, looked out the window and found that there was a thin layer of black gas in the middle of Jiangding City, as if the dust and mist weather shrouded Jiangding City, but in the eyes of ordinary people, the sky was clear outside.

Meng Hao was shocked and told Jingshu and Chen Yu about it at the same time, but he didn't expect the two of them to be very calm, and they were used to this kind of scene.

"And that's just the beginning, and at night, the clouds will cover the sky and the moon like dark clouds. In order to make Meng Hao prepared, Chen Yu and Jingshu explained.

It is indeed as the two of them said, as time goes by, the yin qi outside becomes more and more intense, and under the inspection of Tianyan, the yin qi in mid-air has become very thick.

At dusk in the evening, the downtown streets are obviously much less crowded than usual, and it is obvious that people also know the customs of the Midyear Festival, so they go home early.

It was completely dark, and many people walked out of their houses to the forks in the streets, and began to burn paper money, incense, candles, and some fruit and melon offerings on the ground.

Meng Hao stood by the window and frowned, except for the coffee shop, the other shops on the street were already closed, I don't know what the two girls are doing and not going back.

Just when Meng Hao decided to remind him, the two girls finally locked the door and left in a hurry, which also made Meng Hao dispel his thoughts.

It was only an hour before noon, and there was no longer a single figure in sight on the street, and the yin qi in mid-air was getting thicker and thicker, and there was a sign of pressure on the top.

Meng Hao and the three of them also started to act, and walked out of the hotel with a package containing paper money.

Starting from the street and ending at the end of the street, at each fork in the road, the three of them will take out a wad of paper money and light it, and do not go to the next intersection until the paper money is burned out.

When burning paper money tribute to deceased relatives, it is necessary to say that the paper money tribute is burned until it is burned out, otherwise the deceased relatives will not be able to receive the tribute.

When Meng Hao and the three of them walked to the end of the street, the paper money in the package was just running out, and the time was also midnight.

"Whew"

A rootless gust of wind suddenly blew through the streets, making the night when the sky was clear and the moon was high a little strange.

"Heaven is clear and clear, the earth is ghostly, and heaven and earth have spirits, and they are manifested. Now !!"

Meng Hao hurriedly opened his eyes and looked up, only to see the black clouds in mid-air rapidly descending on Jiangding City, and the entire street was suddenly shrouded in yin qi.

At the beginning of the street, a whirlpool that rotates clockwise suddenly appears, and begins to pull and absorb the yin energy around it. Not only the streets guarded by Meng Hao and others, but also whirlpools appeared in many areas.

When the yin qi of the street was absorbed, the whirlpool, which had become very large, finally stopped absorbing and began to rotate slowly in the opposite direction.

At this moment, the whirlpool is like a portal, and at the other end of the whirlpool, gusts of yin wind continue to pour out of it, revealing the sense of coldness, and the remaining yin qi of the entire street is suddenly blown up, like a black wave.

"Click"

A low sound of footsteps suddenly came from within the whirlpool, from far and near, and then I saw four figures walking out of the whirlpool.

The four of them were dressed in ancient military uniforms, holding a whip in one hand and a bracelet and leg cuffs in the other, with serious expressions, without saying a word, standing on both sides of the whirlpool, like door gods, it was the Yin soldiers and ghosts in the underworld.

"The ghost door has been beaten, and the ghost is about to return to the sun, so use the ghost to cover the charm. Chen Yu said in a deep voice.

"Taiyin canopy, the gate of heaven in the earth; Haste as the law !!"

Meng Hao didn't dare to slack off when he heard this, and hurriedly took out a spirit rune, pinched his fingers with his hand, and then turned into a white smoke and disappeared all over his body.

The ghost shading charm is also known as the ghost covering the eyes, after using this talisman, the ghost cannot see the human body and cannot hear the human speech, but it has no effect on ordinary people in the world, which is also the charm that Meng Hao learned in Maoshan.

When Meng Hao and the three of them blessed themselves with ghost amulets, figures began to appear one after another in the whirlpool, men, women, and children, all ages.

These ghosts are not as sluggish and wooden as in the movie, nor are they terrifying, they are exactly the same as ordinary people in the world, no different.

I saw the ghosts who came out of the whirlpool, all of them exuding a relaxed demeanor, and some of the ghosts even took a deep breath in intoxication.

More and more ghosts came out of the whirlpool and began to walk through the streets, looking around from time to time, and some ghosts even looked at the buildings next to the streets, showing a look of remembrance.

"Humph!!"

Some of the ghosts wanted to enter the houses next to the street, and the shadows guarding the whirlpool snorted coldly, and the ghosts were immediately frightened and did not dare to take a step closer, dispelling the thought in their hearts.

Halloween has Halloween rules, ghosts can wander the streets when they return to the yang world, and accept offerings from relatives, but they cannot enter people's residences, otherwise they will be found by the shadows, and they will inevitably suffer from a meal of flesh and skin.

As the ghosts wandered, some of the ghosts saw the paper money offerings placed on the streets, some of them hurriedly stepped forward to take the paper money into their arms and began to taste the tribute, and some could only sigh and turn away.

These tribute paper money have the blood and breath of relatives, including the thoughts and sustenance of relatives, only relatives and ghosts can take it, and other ghosts cannot be good at moving a bit.

This also causes some ghosts to be unable to enjoy anything, there are no relatives at home to burn incense and worship, and they will not make offerings and wait for the New Year, and the dead ghosts can only starve in the underworld, waiting for the end of yin life.

Life in the underworld is more cruel than in the human world, and there is a saying that reflects the current situation of life in the yin and yang worlds: people in the yang world want to live a long life, and ghosts in the underworld want to die early.

Some ghosts wandered the streets of their loved ones' homes, and they did not see the tribute burned to them, and they were immediately depressed.

At this time, he suddenly noticed the paper money burned by Meng Hao and the others at the fork in the road, and his eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly ran over.

There are no longer a few such ghosts, and they rush to the paper money and start scrambling, the scene has become a little chaotic, and some ghosts even grab one or two paper money, which makes them excited.

The four Shadows guarding the Ghost Gate were unresponsive to the competition between the ghosts, and as long as they didn't do anything to humans, they wouldn't care.

The paper money burned by Meng Hao and the others was to appease those lonely souls and wild ghosts who had no relatives to worship, so that they could gain something and not do evil in the yang world.

Although Meng Hao and the three of them burned a lot of paper money, there were too many lonely souls who got nothing, and Halloween was just a night for them to relax and reminisce about the memories of the world.

Meng Hao and the three of them, who were watching from the sidelines, did not dare to be careless, at first the ghosts were relatively peaceful and guarded, and did not dare to cross the rules, and when they waited later, some ghosts would take risks and cause trouble.
