The night sè is deep.

The wild dog Taoist who had already entered the ghost gate but was pulled back by luck, several wounds on his body had been bandaged at this moment. He still looked weak, but lying on the ground, his breathing was weak but gentle, and he didn't have to worry about his life for the time being.

And Xiaohuan, who saved the wild dog Taoist, is also unconscious at the moment, but she is just overexerting her strength and is fine, which is understood in the hearts of the other two sober people present, and she is not too worried.

For Zhou Zhou Xian, what he cared about at the moment, or what he was wary of, was the mysterious man who had just rescued Xiaohuan. At this moment, he had already recognized this mysterious man in black, he was no stranger, he had seen it not long ago, it was in Heyang City at the foot of Qingyun Mountain, the mysterious man in the Yizhuang, I didn't want to meet this person again.

Zhou Zhou Xian sat beside her granddaughter Xiaohuan, and her eyes drifted to the black figure standing with her hands in her hands from time to time. With his experience, he naturally knew that this person's cultivation on the side of the ghost path was not trivial, but when rì seemed to be friend or foe, he didn't want the man in black to come to the rescue of Xiaohuan. The last time they met, fortunately, there was a ghost to help, and the three of them escaped, at this time, although the man in black did not know his intentions, but the lives of the three people on his side were really in his hands.

Zhou Zhou Xian secretly thought in his heart here, the man in black, that is, Mr. Ghost, who was secretly tracking the ghost all the way south, seemed to be standing aside with Cheng Zhu on his chest, but he didn't know that he was also quite hesitant in his heart. This time to save people, it is really against his peaceful style, but the ghost art he practiced has always been a strange and vicious evil art in the eyes of the world, and it is unique outside the three true law factions of Tao, Buddha, and Demon and the witchcraft of Southern Xinjiang. However, according to the world, it has always been a demon sect with a very bad reputation, in fact, it also looks down on the ghost road, for many years, almost all the people in the ghost path have quietly continued in a kind of darkness, and Mr. Ghost can get the courtesy of the ghost king of the demon sect, but it is an outlier, and there is another reason.

It is precisely because of this that although the mysterious origin of the ghost path continues to this day, the people are extremely thin, and no one can say when the incense will be cut off. Thinking about it, if you are a normal person, I am afraid that not many people will think of practicing this strange technique of dealing with the Yīn Sen Ghost Realm in the whole rì.

Mr. Ghost has practiced for many years, and he is a first-class character in the world, and he is unmatched in the line of the Ghost Dao. He has always been hard-hearted, this is also the result of practicing the ghost way, but this night suddenly saw Xiaohuan at a young age, actually performed a very high soul collection thaumaturgy in the ghost road, this surprise is not trivial, one came to shock Xiaohuan, this looks young and beautiful woman, in the ghost road vein, it seems to have an incredibly high talent; The big connoisseur also doesn't know, but Xiaohuan actually used it, how not to make him thrilled?

When Xiaohuan forcibly collected the soul, although Mr. Ghost did not understand the soul collection thaumaturgy, but he was so accomplished in the ghost path, and his own vision was even more unique, at a glance, he could see that although Xiaohuan was talented, but after all, he was too demanding, and sure enough, after all, it was only a while, although Xiaohuan was unexpectedly able to catch the soul of the wild dog Taoist in countless ghosts, but it had already angered countless unjust souls and was eaten by the ghost. When he was about to die, for some reason, Mr. Ghost couldn't sit idly by, and finally came to the rescue.

Although he doesn't know how to collect soul thaumaturgy, it is more than enough to deal with these ordinary ghosts, and once he makes a move, he immediately urges the magic circle to protect Xiaohuan, and also makes Xiaohuan's soul collection magic complete. However, after the incident, he hesitated a little, not knowing what to do next.

The atmosphere in the field was so embarrassing for a while, until a long time later, Xiaohuan's body moved, but he finally woke up, and called softly: "Grandpa." Then he opened his eyes.

Zhou Xian was overjoyed, and hurriedly helped Xiaohuan up, Xiaohuan's face was tired, and his body was weak, but it didn't look serious, and after calming down, she immediately turned her head to look at the wild dog Taoist, only to see the wild dog lying on the ground, although the injury was serious, but the breathing was slow, obviously it was really alive, and Xiaohuan smiled.

She turned her eyes back, and then she found that there was another person in black around her, and she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then she also recognized it, this person was vaguely the mysterious black-clothed person in Heyang City, and couldn't help shrinking, and exclaimed: "Grandpa, he, why is he here?"

Zhou Zhou Xian helped Xiaohuan to stand up, and said in a low voice: "I don't know why he suddenly came here, but just now when you cast a spell, it was he who came to the rescue, which made you and the wild dog turn the corner." ”

Xiaohuan heard Zhou Xian say this, and he also thought about it, he cast the spell until the last moment, after all, he was not practicing enough and was eaten by the ghosts, and when he saw that he was about to end up with a thousand ghosts devouring his heart, the formation in his hand suddenly became full of mana, driving away all the ghosts around him, so ** Fang Cheng, it seems that they were all saved by this mysterious man in black.

Thinking of this, Xiaohuan nodded slowly to Mr. Ghost and said, "Thank you for this senior." ”

Mr. Ghost seemed to ignore Xiaohuan's gratitude, but suddenly asked in a cold voice: "Little girl, I have a few things to ask you, I hope you will answer me truthfully." ”

Xiaohuan was stunned, and at the same time felt that Zhou Xian's hand holding her body gently tugged at her, and she hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "What do you have to say from your seniors, just ask?"

Mr. Ghost nodded and said, "The ghost path technique has always been kept secret, where did you practice this ghost path technique?"

Xiaohuan was stunned for a moment and said, "Ghost Dao, what ghost Dao?"

Zhou Xian behind him sighed secretly, but the ghost gentleman in front of him was taken aback, but looking at Xiaohuan's face with surprise, it didn't seem to be fake, she really didn't seem to know that this was the so-called ghost magic. After a moment of silence, Mr. Ghost said, "The soul harvesting technique you just performed is actually the most profound magic thaumaturgy in the ghost path, don't you know?"

Xiaohuan shook his head in a daze and said, "I—I don't know." ”

Mr. Ghost immediately asked, "Then from whom did you practice this soul harvesting technique?"

Xiaohuan shook his head and said, "No one taught me." ”

Mr. Ghost was stunned, and only listened to Xiaohuan continue: "This soul collection technique was naughty when I was a child, playing indiscriminately in my grandfather's old house, and fell into a dry well, and found these spells recorded from the wall of the well. I was young at the time, and I studied it randomly, and I only used it once in all these years. Why, senior, are you interested in this spell?"

Mr. Ghost was silent, but after a long time, he let out a long sigh, listening to his voice was quite desolate, but it was a sense of depression.

Xiaohuan and Zhou Zhou Xian glanced at each other, and they didn't know why the man in black suddenly became depressed, but after a while, they suddenly heard Mr. Ghost shouting in a hoarse voice in front of them: "Little girl, what's your name?"

Zhou Zhou Xian frowned, but Xiaohuan had already answered, and said, "My name is Xiaohuan." ”

Mr. Ghost nodded and said, "I have something I want to talk to you about alone, can you come over?"

Zhou Zhou Xian's brows furrowed, obviously unwilling for Xiaohuan to stay with this ghostly guy, but Xiaohuan didn't think about it so much, thinking that this person had saved his life just now, so he nodded and said, "Okay." After that, he ignored Zhou Xian's secret stop and walked over.

Mr. Ghost watched Xiaohuan walk to him, nodded slowly, and seemed to approve of the young woman, and when Xiaohuan approached, he slowly, as if he was also carefully considering something in his heart when he spoke, and said in a low voice: "Are you willing to practice this ghost spell?"

Xiaohuan was stunned and couldn't speak for a while, but looking at Mr. Ghost's black veil mask, a pair of eyes were blazing, obviously not joking, and he didn't feel a little hesitant.

What kind of experience Mr. Ghost has, looking carefully at Xiaohuan's face, he guessed her thoughts**, and he didn't force her at the moment, but said: "When you cast the spell just now, how did you feel in your heart in the face of countless ghosts?"

Xiaohuan's face turned red, then turned a little pale, and said in a low voice: "I—I'm a little scared." ”

Mr. Ghost said lightly: "It's not a shame that you are afraid, the world is ignorant, and they are afraid of ghosts and ghosts, but they don't know the theory of ghosts, it's just a kind of person who dies and before he dies." Most of what people fear is their own demons. ”

He pointed to the small ring and said, "Take you as an example, you were afraid when you cast the spell just now, although you can still cast the spell, but there must be countless illusions in front of you, all kinds of hideous and ferocious pictures?"

Xiaohuan nodded again and again and said, "Yes." ”

Mr. Ghost snorted and said, "In fact, the so-called ghost way, the most important thing is to control the demons in your heart. And if you think about it carefully, the reason why those ghosts are angry and revolt looks very hateful and rape, but they are like countless people in this world, how can they not be crazy when they see that once they have the opportunity to escape and return to Yangshou?"

He sneered with his hands: "People in the world accuse ghosts of being fierce, but they don't know that they are the same, isn't it ridiculous?"

The little ring looked thoughtful and nodded slowly.

Mr. Ghost said again: "I know your thoughts, and I hate the reputation of the ghost way, but you just used the ghost path magic to save the life of that wild dog, which shows that the ghost path is not useless." I really can't bear to miss it because I see that you have a rare talent on the way to the ghost road, so I have the heart to teach you," he smiled faintly and said, "As for the future, it doesn't matter if you find out how evil my behavior is, and you want to kill me." We ghost people don't understand these vulgar rituals. ”

Xiaohuan was startled and took a step back.

Mr. Ghost was silent for a moment, and then looked at the small ring again, only to see that the small ring was very hesitant, and his delicate face frowned from time to time. Mr. Ghost didn't say much, and reached out to take out a half-finger-wide black sè wordless cover scroll from his arms and threw it to Xiaohuan, who subconsciously caught it and looked at him in amazement.

Mr. Ghost said lightly: "What is recorded in this book is some of the understandings of my half-life practice of the ghost path, and many of them are methods of refining weapons, and I am confident that there is no one in the world who can compare with them." You learn it or not, it's up to you. With that, he turned around and left.

Xiaohuan looked at his back, subconsciously shouted, and said, "Senior, wait." ”

Mr. Ghost paused, stopped, and said, "What?"

Xiaohuan was suffocated, and said for a while: "I, I don't know your name yet?"

Mr. Ghost turned his back to his body, motionless, and said lightly after a long time: "I passed on your spells, and I didn't want you to remember me, you can do it yourself." ”

After that, he got up and walked forward again, Xiaohuan was in a hurry, and suddenly said loudly: "This, this you save my life, and teach me Taoism, I have to, I have to call you Master, right?"

Mr. Ghost's body shook violently, as if the words of the young and delicate woman behind him were more intense than the five thunderbolts on the top. It's just that after all, he practiced very deeply, and soon regained his calm, and slowly turned around, covered with a black veil, and no one could see his face, but from his shining eyes, anyone could see that he was in an unusual mood at the moment.

"You call me Master?"

Xiaohuan's face turned red, but he was a little embarrassed, and said: "This is my own thought, if, if you don't want to senior, I"

Mr. Ghost suddenly intercepted: "Okay, don't talk about it." ”

Xiaohuan was stunned, looked up, and saw Mr. Ghost take a deep look at Xiaohuan, nodded, reached into his arms again and took some things, handed them to Xiaohuan, and said, "For the sake of you calling me a master, this will be given to you." ”

Xiaohuan looked down and saw a stack of seven dark triangular flakes, each inch and a half in size, with smooth edges, and the material was indiscernible, like iron and non-iron. Xiaohuan hesitated, looked at Mr. Ghost, and saw that his eyes were quite relaxed, so he reached out and took it. Looking closely, I saw that these triangles had a small hole at the top, and dark red silk ropes were tied together in the holes. On each triangle, there are different dark red sè mysterious patterns on the front and back, some like flames burning, some like beasts roaring, all different. When I received it in my hand, I only felt that the tentacles were cold, and at the same time, there was a faint bloody aura.

Behind him, Zhou Xian's eyes were sharp, and he could see at a glance that these triangles were the things that Mr. Ghost used to save Xiaohuan just now.

Mr. Ghost said lightly: "This thing is called 'Blood Jade Bone Piece', it is the treasure of the Ghost Dao, it has the miraculous effect of stimulating the ghost Dao different methods, the original five-layer Dao Xing, with this magic weapon, can at least play to the seventh layer, if the talent is better, it can even stimulate the effect of the tenth layer." ”

Xiaohuan was surprised and delighted, and nodded again and again, but Zhou Zhou Xian shook his head in the distance.

Mr. Ghost stared at Xiaohuan for a long time, suddenly shook his head and sighed, and said in a low voice: "I count you and I tonight, but we have only met twice, and it is just fate." He looked up at the sky and said, "You can help me save someone." ”

Xiaohuan was stunned for a moment and said, "Save people, who?"

Mr. Ghost shook his head silently, seemed to smile bitterly, and said, "I'll talk about it in the future." ”

As he spoke, he turned around, as if he didn't want to stay any longer, the black figure was like a ghost, and it came out in an instant, and disappeared into the shadow of the dense forest in a blink of an eye. Xiaohuan couldn't scream, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he couldn't see the black figure. Somehow, the man in black actually gave her a faint and kind feeling, Xiaohuan sighed, and held the string of blood jade bone pieces in his hand tightly in the palm of his hand.

Zhou Zhou Xian next to him snorted, walked up, took the blood jade bone piece in Xiaohuan's hand and looked at it carefully, turned it over one by one, Xiaohuan was a little puzzled, and said, "Grandpa, what's wrong?"

Zhou Zhou Xian sneered: "Good master you worship, do you know what this thing is made of?"

Xiaohuan was stunned and said, "What is it?"

Zhou Zhou Xian said: "This ghost thing is refined from the fragments of the skull of a person who has reached the point of yīn, and I don't know how many living souls have been added to it to have such an effect." ”

Xiaohuan was stunned for a moment, took a look, but couldn't tell that this was a human bone, but more like jade, and couldn't help but glance at Zhou Xian, and said, "Grandpa, is it true, where does this look like a human bone?"

Zhou Xian Deng was angry and said, "You found that guy who looks like a ghost and doesn't look like a human to be your master, don't you believe me?"

Xiaohuan stuck out his tongue, took the blood jade bone piece into his arms, and said with a smile: "Okay, grandpa, anyway, in the future, I will only use this thing for good deeds, not bad things, right?"

Zhou Zhou Xian snorted, turned around and walked away, and said to himself: "It's strange to believe you." ”

Xiaohuan smiled, coquettish, and followed.
