Chapter 244: Desolate Temple
At twenty or thirty feet away from the temple, the horse's footsteps suddenly stopped.
"Senior Ma, the ghost we are going to deal with is in this temple, right?" Chen Luo also stopped, looked at the temple not far away, and asked.
The Captain Horse Face did not turn around or speak, but just nodded.
"Then why don't you leave? Could it be that the ghosts in this temple are very tricky?" Chen Luo said that, but he was not very worried.
According to previous observations at Zhenhuai Bridge, although the current cultivation level of the Soul-Ceeping Horse Face cannot be compared with that of a thousand years later, at least there is a late stage of fasting. As for whether it reaches the Soul-Condensing Stage, he cannot judge whether it reaches the Soul-Condensing Stage. In addition, his body is particularly good at subduing ghosts. As long as the ghosts in this temple have not reached the Soul-Condensing Stage, there should be no problem.
"It's just a ghost in the fasting stage. This guy has some intelligence and is good at hiding. As soon as he senses that I am approaching, he will immediately avoid it. I also have a headache, so I asked you to help." The soul-grabbing horse said, turning around and looking at Chen Luo with a meaningful look.
"Hey! Could it be that you want me to pull it out? Maybe it's not great to you, but different to me. I only have the Qi Refining Stage!" Chen Luo couldn't help but shout.
"What are you anxious about before I finished speaking? Listen, you enter the temple first and lead the ghost out. When it approaches you, you will activate this talisman and trap it temporarily. I will appear and kill it immediately." The soul-grabbing horse rolled his face, took out a black talisman from his arms, and handed it over.
The talisman is painted with a spider-web-like pattern, emitting a faint wave of magic power.
"Don't you still treat me as bait? What if the talisman doesn't work then, or the ghost is not trapped and you appear for a while, then I'm in danger! Otherwise, give me some more defense?" Chen Luo took the black talisman and muttered.
"Don't think I'm a fool and don't know the situation in the mortal world. You kid took over the mission of the government? A ghost in the fasting stage is indispensable! There is a saying in the mortal world that wealth and honor are in danger. Since you want to reward, how can you not take some risks?" The soul-grabbing horse snorted and said angrily.
"Okay, then you must hurry up!" Seeing this, Chen Luo had to agree with the situation.
"Don't worry." After the soul-grabbing horse said, his figure swayed and disappeared without a trace like air.
Chen Luo took a deep breath, put a ghost-removing talisman on his chest, then pinched the black talisman with one hand, took out the ghost roar ring with the other hand, and then walked forward.
This period of not seemingly long distance, but he seemed to have walked through thousands of mountains and rivers, almost stopping every three steps and resting every five steps. From time to time, he looked around. The closer he got to the temple gate, the more nervous he felt, for fear that the ghost would suddenly appear, and he would not have time to react, and the horse face would not have time to show up.
This is a real ghost in the fasting stage, which is different from the female ghost at the peak of the Qi Refining stage that I dealt with not long ago. After all, once the ghost enters the fasting stage, its strength will change like a complete transformation compared to the Qi Refining stage. If you are not careful, you will not be able to take it.
In terms of reward amount, this ghost is probably not just as simple as the early stage of fasting, otherwise the Lin Du family would not have sent more than ten people to send out heavy casualties. He did not think that just his little thunder talisman and ghost roar ring could be able to stop the other party.
Even if he has the thunderfall talisman in his body, he may not be able to guarantee that he can hit the opponent with one blow. Besides, it is his killer move, so he doesn't want to use it casually.
Just as Shen Luo was thinking about it, he was just walking out of seventeen or eighteen feet away, a gust of night wind blew, causing the weeds at the entrance of the temple to rustle.
Chen Luo suddenly felt a sudden stern in his heart, and he quickly raised the black talisman and ghost roar ring in his hand at the same time, aiming at the grass in front. As a result, after waiting for a long time, there was no strangeness in the weeds in front of him, but it was just a false alarm.
"Forget it, it's a blessing or not a disaster, it's a disaster, it's a disaster, I can't escape it, I'll fight it!" Chen Luo wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, calmed down, and then he gathered his breath and walked forward quickly, and soon arrived at the temple gate.
The entrance door of this temple is very wide, and two doors that are about to collapse are hanging there, swaying.
Chen Luo raised his hand and pushed it, and there was a loud noise. The door swayed a few times, but it didn't open, and it seemed that it was locked inside.
He was about to increase his strength, but a voice came from it: "I wonder who came?"
Chen Luo was stunned when he heard this. Didn’t he say that there were ghosts hidden here and many people had died, so why were there anyone inside?
As he thought about it, he held the ghost roar ring tightly and didn't say anything.
A sound of footsteps approached from inside, and the door creaked and opened. A monk in a yellow robe appeared inside. He looked only in his early twenties and was very young, but his expression was a little dull. He looked at him and asked:
"Donor is this?"
"As far as I know, this temple has been abandoned and there are no monks left. And there have been ghosts here recently. How dare you stay here? Aren't you afraid of death?" Chen Luo also looked at the young monk a few times, and confirmed that the other party had no ghost energy and was a living person. After breathing a sigh of relief and asked in a deep voice.
"No wonder, haunted? The little monk just came to Jianye City yesterday and placed a list in this deserted temple. He had never heard of haunted here." The young monk said in a panic.
"I am here to go to the Bai family in Jianye. I am here to collect ghosts by the government. If you want your life, leave here quickly." Chen Luo frowned and said again.
"It turns out to be Master Immortal Master. I'll call two senior brothers and leave here immediately..." After hearing this, the young monk bowed to him, turned around and ran away.
Chen Luo ignored him and stepped into the temple. Perhaps because he saw the living person, he felt a little relieved.
From here, you can see an open space similar to a square and a long-dried lotus pond. The avenue leading to the Heavenly King Hall was already full of weeds. The bell towers, drum towers and even the corridors on both sides have also collapsed nearly half of them. The further distance is blocked and it is not clear. However, from the corners of the eaves and halls that are looming in the distance, the area of the temple is definitely not small.
Chen Luo paused at the door for a moment and stepped into the temple.
He stood in front of the square, looked around for a few times, but did not feel the breath of the ghost. He couldn't help frowning, feeling a little worried about how to lead the ghost out.
Make some noise and attract the other party's attention?
He quickly shook his head and rejected the idea. With the ghost's intelligence and cunning, if the other party felt that he was deliberately setting a trap, he might not have come out.
