"This is Meng Lang. I hope the girl won't be surprised."
Zhou Wenqing touched his nose awkwardly and forcibly changed the topic:
"What happened here, what are the girl's plans now?"
"Leave Hongling City and wander around. If you have a chance, go to the Imperial Capital and see the prosperity there."
Chai Jiangcui drank the tea in the cup in one gulp, narrowed his eyes and looked into the distance, his indifferent expression gradually turned serious.
Someone is coming, no, to be precise, it seems to be a ghost, and the aura is very strong!
Before Zhou Wenqing could answer, Chai Jiangcui interrupted directly:
"A ghost is coming. It's very strong. Fellow Taoist, be careful."
Is there a ghost coming?
Zhou Wenqing was startled and looked around warily. Soon, he discovered that at some point, a gorgeous figure appeared on the eaves in the distance.
When the woman on the eaves saw that she had been discovered, she no longer hid herself and jumped up. Like a fallen leaf, she floated leisurely in front of Chai Jiangcui and the others. She casually found a trace of remaining ashes, put it to the tip of her nose and sniffed it, her expression seemed to be pregnant.
ridicule.
"Ah ha, the movement of the flames just now was so loud. I didn't expect that idiot Li Lie to hide here and actually die here."
Feeling the powerful ghost energy on the woman's body, a trace of cold sweat broke out on Zhou Wenqing's forehead. He cupped his fists and saluted the woman:
"Wen Qing, the next week, is a direct descendant of the fifth family of the Zhou family in Qidi. I wonder who you are?"
"You want to scare me by moving out of the Zhou family? It's a pity that others are afraid of your Zhou family, but I, Liu Sanniang, am not afraid. Little girl, I see that your swordsmanship is extraordinary. Which of the four sword-wielding sects are you a master disciple of?"
The female ghost named Liu Sanniang smiled slightly, turned her attention to Chai Jiangcui, and looked at her with interest.
Seeing that Liu Sanniang didn't even look at him, Zhou Wenqing felt a little embarrassed about his face, but when he thought of Liu Sanniang's reputation in the spiritual world, he wisely chose to shut up.
You can get your face back later, but now you should think about how to save your life.
'Is it possible to use that thing?'
Zhou Wenqing remained silent on the surface, but he was struggling in his heart.
"I disappoint you, Lord Ghost General. I'm just a humble cultivator. With my meager swordsmanship talent, I can't get into the four sword-wielding sects."
Chai Jiangcui shook his head. The Four Sword-holding Sects were the holy places in the hearts of all sword cultivators in the Dayan Kingdom. The book only indicated the general direction. It was not easy to find the exact mountain gate.
"Oh? After working on it for a long time, it turns out they are just two small miscellaneous fish."
Knowing that Chai Jiangcui was not from the Four Sword Holding Sects, Liu Sanniang showed a look of disappointment on her face, and the enthusiasm in her eyes quickly faded.
"Since you are not members of the four sword-wielding sects, there is no need to waste your time. In the next life, your eyes will be brighter, and don't come to places you shouldn't come to."
Liu Sanniang sighed softly, and the ghost energy in her hands gathered into claws, ready to kill the two of them.
"Wait a minute, Liu Sanniang! Do you know what is in my hand?"
At this tense moment, Zhou Wenqing suddenly raised a fiery red token engraved with a phoenix pattern and stood in front of Chai Jiangcui.
"Master, he is helping you block the knife. This man can be dealt with."
Looking at the not-so-generous figure in front of him, the little white fox said excitedly.
But what responded to it was a loud banging chestnut,
"You're such a big-headed idiot, you little fox can't even read a word, how can you know such messy things? If we get into a fight later, get into my clothes, remember to hold me tight."
"嘤嘤嘤——(┯_┯)"
Chai Jiangcui didn't recognize the token in Zhou Wenqing's hand, but judging from the ghost claws that Liu Sanniang immediately put away, she thought it should be a life-saving thing given to the descendants by the Zhou family.
"Feng Yan Ling! It seems that you are quite popular in the Zhou family. I wonder how many Feng Yan Lings your Zhou family has left after so many years?"
Looking at the mysterious fire phoenix on the token, Liu Sanniang took two steps back in fear.
Zhou Wenqing seemed unable to hear the sarcasm in Liu Sanniang's words, and said with a serious face:
"The Zhou family has many treasures, so I won't bother Sanniang to worry about it. Since you recognize the Phoenix Fire Order, you should also know its power. Even if Sanniang is a late-stage ghost general, I'm afraid you won't be able to gain favor against Feng Yan.
Bar?"
"Hmph, don't think you're trying to scare me, Liu Sanniang, with a bad sign. If I remember correctly, your Phoenix Flame Token only has the power of one blow."
Liu Sanniang's eyes were gloomy, and a sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth.
The next moment, Zhou Wenqing suddenly discovered that the people in the Zhao Mansion who had been hiding before and were missing were quickly surrounding him and the two of them.
As these servants walked, their appearance gradually changed greatly, from a living person with flesh and blood to a disgusting corpse and a terrifying incorporeal ghost.
Most of these corpses are as powerful as ghosts, and most of them are similar to the one-eyed boy in the inn. Only a few of them have broken through to the early stage of god refining.
Although the individual strength is not strong, it is quite difficult to handle in large numbers, not to mention that there is Liu Sanniang in front of them who is eyeing them eagerly.
As long as Zhou Wenqing is distracted for a moment, his right arm will be separated from his body, thus losing his only trump card.
"That's it again! As long as these monsters don't transform, no matter how much you probe with your spiritual consciousness, they will feel like mortals."
Sensing the changes in the atmosphere around him, Chai Jiangcui's eyes became more solemn. An encounter could be said to be an accident, but such a large-scale abnormality could no longer be covered up by the word "accident."
"How about it? I have a lot of cannon fodder. Brother Zhou, why don't you pick one at random to test the power of Feng Yan Ling?"
Along with Liu Sanniang's laughter, a group of zombie brothers had already arrived beside the two of them.
"I'm sorry, Miss Chai, I've caused trouble for you. My intention of setting up the Sancai Liehuo Array was to prevent Li Lie from escaping. I never thought that Hongling City would turn out to be a ghost nest."
Zhou Wenqing gave a wry smile in shame, and took out a handful of talismans and magic weapons from his storage bag, with a trace of determination flashing in his eyes.
"Miss Chai, you can find a chance to run away later, and I will come to the rear for you. Don't be sad for me. As a descendant of the Zhou family, I should maintain the dignity of the Zhou family. I just ask that if there is a chance in the future, please tell me the cause of my death.
Inform the Zhou family."
"oh."
Chai Jiangcui responded with a calm voice, and took the Shuiyue Sword, the sword's light shining sternly.
