In the high platform hall, Xin Yao saw Ying Zhuan staring behind her and knew something was wrong. As soon as her eyes fell, she saw a shadow on the ground under her feet. She was trapped in her own figure.
She pondered for a moment, holding the bamboo sword in her hand, and suddenly moved half a step to the side, turned half around, and glanced away, but there was nothing there.
But when she turned back again, a cold-looking Taoist in black stood in front of her, and the two parties were so close.
She was startled, and just as she was about to swing out the bamboo sword in her hand, suddenly, a burst of black fire rose from the ground. The black-clothed Taoist was then torn apart by the black fire, and disappeared in an instant, while the people around him were
People and things also become alive again.
The black fire fluttered out of thin air and returned to Ying Zhuan.
Xin Yao adjusted her glasses, put the bamboo sword away, and asked calmly: "Brother Ying, what is that? A ghost?"
Ying Zhuan nodded.
Xin Yao thought for a while, and said that ghosts existed in the ancient Xia Dynasty, but most of them were transformed by mortals who had mastered some cultivation skills, and they could not survive for a long time.
However, there are also some evil cultivators who deliberately practice sacrifices, and there is another type of cultivators who have not yet completed their meritorious deeds and have given up their physical existence. Among them, there are some extremely special existences that often cannot be treated with common sense.
She guessed that what she just saw was the last one, but why did this thing appear here?
She immediately thought that there was something strange about the platform that An's sold to her cheaply.
At this time, she saw Yan Yuming lowering his head as if thinking about something, and asked: "Master Yan, do you know anything?"
Yan Yuming raised his head and said, "I was just thinking that I heard Senior Brother Qingshu talking about similar things. I'll go find him and ask him."
After saying that, he turned around and ran out. After a while, Qingshu walked into the hall with him. The latter clasped his fists at several people and said: "Yan Shaolang just told me about this matter. According to what several people just described,
, I do know some.
I heard from your husband that this should be a person named Tan Jun, and the Golden Eyes Office even specially approached your husband about this matter."
When he came down, he gave a general account of what he knew about Tan Jun.
After Xin Yao heard about the origin of Tan Quan, she knew that this person was not something she could deal with. Xu Chengtong might have been able to resist this person here, but he happened to be taken care of and went out and has not returned yet. Fortunately, Ying Zhuan is here today
.
She raised her head and said: "Senior Brother Ying, you discovered this person as soon as you came here. Is it possible to subdue this ghost?"
Ying Zhuan said lightly: "If this person is illusory and exists in your mind, as long as you are calm in your heart, it will be okay to see this person."
Xin Yao muttered: "Ding Jing?"
Yan Yuming was a little flustered when he heard this, and said: "Uncle Ying, how can we disciples resist?"
Xin Yao said: "Since Senior Brother Ying said this, it has nothing to do with cultivation, it all depends on the monk's personal state of mind and cultivation."
Yan Yuming said with a bitter face: "That's true, but it always feels bad to be stared at. Besides, everyone has some private matters, right?"
Xin Yao nodded lightly and said: "This is also a problem."
After cultivating the light of mind or magical power, a cultivator's body will be clean and free of dirt. If it is not out of habit, he usually does not need to bathe and wash like a mortal, and there will be no dirty things in him, but he will not be afraid of being spied on.
But when you are having a private conversation with someone or when you are alone, how can you calm down when you think of someone watching right next to you?
Yan Yuming said: "Senior Brother Qingshu, what will happen to those people who were targeted by Tan Jun in the past?"
Qingshu thought for a while and said: "According to what Mr. said, he may be replaced by the original person."
Yan Yuming asked in confusion: "Replacement?"
Qingshu said: "For example, if I am taken advantage of by him, then he will become one of them instead of you and me. However, people who are familiar with you and me will not notice anything wrong with it and will still regard him as one of them."
The original person. Maybe one of the two of us has been replaced now, but others take it for granted."
Yan Yuming felt a chill surge up behind his back, which almost replaced a person's existence from the world. This was more terrifying than killing a person directly.
Ying Zhuan turned his scarlet eyes at this time, looked at Qing Shu and said: "Are you saying that this person has the ability to replace others?"
Qingshu said: "Yes. This is what Mr. Wang said, so the matter was later handed over to the Golden Eyes Department for handling. However, although they have the knowledge of Golden Eyes, it seems that they have not been able to really catch this person.
"
Ying Zhuan said: "They should have caught it, but they couldn't eradicate it." He thought for a while, looked at everyone and said, "Maybe there is a way." As he spoke, a cluster of black fire suddenly flew out of his body, and in the blink of an eye he was gone.
flew out.
Yan Yuming tried to ask: "Uncle Ying, what can we do? What should we do now?"
Ying Zhuan said calmly: "Wait."
But after a while, a short-legged boy carrying a package ran in panting. When he entered the hall, he kept bowing to everyone and said: "Hello everyone, hello seniors, my name is Yaodou.
', I am studying the Fa with Mr. Ying, you can call me Douzi or Xiaodou."
Yan Yuming hurriedly returned the courtesy and said: "Yao, um...Junior Brother Dou."
Yaodou moved the cyst on his body a little higher, raised his head and asked Yingzhuan: "Sir, what do you want me to do?"
Ying Zhuan said: "You have seen all the people here clearly, just follow them."
Yaodou said enthusiastically: "Okay!"
On his short legs, he ran to Qing Shu, Yan Yuming, Xin Yao and others, looked at each of them carefully, clapped his hands at the end, and said, "Okay!"
Under the curious gazes of Yan Yuming and others, he walked aside, untied the package on his back, took out a large piece of secretly refined purple clay and threw it on the table. Then he rolled up his sleeves and said, "Look at me.
."
He dug out a small piece of clay and kneaded it in his hands. After a while, a small clay figurine came out. It looked the same as Yan Yuming, but with a big head and a small body, it looked like a clay doll.
Yan Yuming exclaimed: "What a resemblance!"
Yaodou moved very quickly. After Yan Yuming, the clay statues of Qing Shu, Xin Yao and Ying Zhuan himself were all pinched out, and they were all vivid.
At this time, they suddenly heard a meow above them. Everyone looked up and saw Mr. Miaodan squatting on the window sill, his tail wagging slightly, staring at the clay dolls.
"Spiritual kitten?"
Yaodou scratched his head, turned around and asked, "Well, sir, do you want the kitten to be pinched?"
Ying Zhuan said nothing.
Yan Yuming's eyes lit up and he said: "Pinch one, just pinch one..."
Yaodou muttered: "Okay." He brought another piece of secret clay, and in just a few moments, he quickly made a clay statue of Lord Miaodan, which looked lifelike.
At this time, black fire floated on Ying Zhuan's body, floating over the clay dolls, and then he took back his clay statue and said lightly: "Take these back each of you, carry them with you, or put them on
In the quiet room, the results will come within a few days."
Yan Yuming stepped forward and took his own clay statue. After thinking about it, he took the one belonging to Lord Miaodan and put it on his body together. He thought of something at this time and asked: "What should I do with the servants on the stage?
"
Qingshu picked up his clay statue and said: "I heard from the people at the Golden Eyes Department that this Tanquan will only target monks. Those servants are ordinary people and should be fine. Just like me, if
If he hadn't been wearing outer armor, he probably wouldn't have been targeted."
After Xin Yao stepped forward to take the statue of herself, she turned around and said, "I will arrange a place for Senior Brother Ying to live here."
Ying Zhuan did not refuse and followed Xin Yao to the stage.
Qing Shu and Yan Yuming did not stay here anymore, but went back to their respective homes.
At this time, Mr. Miaodan, who was squatting on the window sill, suddenly raised his four paws, raised his tail, and stared down. A black-clothed Taoist stood there. The latter raised his head and glanced at it, then disappeared again.
At the same time, on a certain star in the outer layer of Aldea, Xu Chengtong and his disciples were still waiting here.
At this time, he saw a talisman suddenly flying from the distance, and he immediately became vigilant. When he saw the talisman floating in front of him, he cautiously went up to take it. After looking at it, a trace of joy appeared on his face and he said: "The patrol summons
I'll go back later, you can tidy up and follow me back to Kuisu."
At this time, I turned around and saw that the four disciples were listless.
He was very dissatisfied when he saw this and scolded: "If you can't even survive such a small thing, how can I expect you to do big things?"
He thought to himself: "These boys are not as useful as those Taoist pawns, but since I have followed the patrol, I am a good person, Lao Xu, and I can no longer use those Taoist pawns."
He immediately released the flying boat magical weapon, loaded up four disciples, and came to Tianmen. Two days later, he crossed the Tianmen and landed on Tanquanzhou. He collected the flying boat on the Bozhou rooftop and went to Tanquanzhou residence.
.
However, after arriving at the underworld, Xu Chengtong was surprised to find that the house seemed to be enveloped by a cloud of fairy energy, and it did not look like a forbidden formation.
His thoughts turned around, and he seemed to have thought of something. He opened his eyes wide, suppressed the excitement in his heart, straightened his robes, and scolded the disciples: "Wait here for me."
After all the disciples agreed, he stepped into the courtyard. When he was outside, he was originally upright, but as soon as he entered the door, his waist bent down. Then he walked through the courtyard and came to the main hall. He bowed and said: "Guard Guard"
,Xu was ordered to turn around."
After waiting for a while, a familiar clear voice came to his ears, "Deacon Xu, come in."
Xu Chengtong took off his shoes, came to the hall, and took a look at the seat. However, he found that Zhang Yu's whole body was shrouded in a brilliant jade mist, and he couldn't see his face clearly for a while. He realized something and held back the excitement in his heart.
, bowed and said: "Xu Chengtong pays homage to the patrol!"
Zhang Yuzhao said: "Deacon Xu, you did a good job in the previous work."
Xu Chengtong said hurriedly: "Xu just followed the patrol's instructions and did not dare to receive such praise."
Zhang Yu raised his sleeves and waved lightly.
Xu Chengtong was shocked to find that the strand of sword energy that Zhang Yu left in his body had been removed and disappeared. But instead of being happy, he was actually a little scared, thinking: "Oh no, the patrol has moved this sword energy.
Can you still trust me, Old Xu, in the future?"
Zhang Yudao: "Now that I have achieved success in my practice, I have received an edict from Xuanting. I may go to Xuanting to report on my work in the near future. You can wait here first. I will make my own arrangements afterwards."
When Xu Chengtong heard this, his whole body suddenly trembled. After a while, he raised his head and his eyes were red. He put his hands together and said, "Xu Chengtong is here to respectfully patrol and achieve the upper realm!" After saying that, he leaned down.
Get down, bow down to the end, and stay still for a long time.
Zhang Yu glanced at him and said: "Deacon Xu, you can go down first. I, Tian Xia, don't like bowing down. Please remember not to do this in the future."
Xu Chengtong said yes, stood up obediently, bowed respectfully to the seat, and then walked backwards out of the lobby.
When he walked all the way out of the courtyard and stepped out of the gate, he became strutting again. He glanced at the bright sky outside and couldn't help but feel proud: "Lao Xu, I am finally showing off!"
