4002. Chapter 4002 The villagers who were sucked dry 2
Among those monks, there was an old monk wearing cassocks and a serious face. He held a Zen staff in his hand and walked around the world. He uttered a few scoldings from time to time, as if he was doing a ritual to exorcise ghosts, with a serious expression on his face.
appearance.
Around the monks, dozens of villagers gathered to watch. Leng Xuan walked up to one of the old men and asked, "Old man, what are you doing?" The old man looked at Leng Xuan and said.
: "My son, there is a ghost in our village, so we asked Master Xuanqing to come over and do some magic to drive away the ghosts."
Leng Xuan asked in confusion: "It's haunted? What kind of ghost is it?" The old man sighed: "How do I know what kind of ghost it is? Anyway, several people died in the village some time ago. They all looked horrible, as if they had been sucked dry by a ghost.
Same." Hearing this, Leng Xuan's heart couldn't help but ask, "Have all those people been buried?" The old man shook his head and said, "Not yet. The old master said that after he finished the method, he would use the three-flavored essence.
Burn those corpses with fire to prevent the ghost energy from causing trouble." Leng Xuan heard this and smiled helplessly. The three flavors of real fire and ghost energy were all made up by these fake monks, specifically to deceive these villagers.
However, looking at the old man's convinced look, Leng Xuan didn't bother to point it out. He asked about the location of the corpses, and then walked quickly over. Not long after, he came under a temporary awning, and only the ground was visible.
Six coffins without lids were placed.
Leng Xuan walked to a coffin and took a look at it. He saw a haggard corpse lying inside the coffin. The skin of the corpse was white and the whole body was shriveled. It seemed that all the blood on the body had been sucked dry before death.
After Leng Xuan carefully inspected it, he found that there were no wounds on the body. He frowned slightly, then walked to several other coffins and took a look, only to see that the corpses were all in the same state of death.
Leng Xuan's heart sank slightly. Through the strange appearance of these corpses, he couldn't help but think of Zhong Lingyu. With Zhong Lingyu's soul body, if he can't find a host for a long time, he must absorb energy to maintain the power of the soul.
.These villagers have obviously become food for Zhong Lingyu. After pondering for a moment, he returned to the old man and asked: "Old man, when did those people die?" The old man replied: "Four days ago.
.”
"Four days?" Leng Xuan thought to himself. Assuming that his idea was true, then, since Zhong Lingyu came here four days ago, then these four days were enough for her to go to other places. He secretly thought
Sighing, it would be even more troublesome to find Zhong Lingyu. At this time, Leng Xuan saw that the sky was getting darker, so he left the village, and then galloped towards the Fang Yuan faction. When he returned
When we arrived at the sect, night had completely enveloped the Qifeng Mountains.
Leng Xuan walked to the bamboo building, and just as he opened the door and was about to go in, he heard Hong Yun's cold voice coming from not far away: "Fellow Daoist Chen, where have you been?" Leng Xuan turned his head and said with a smile: "You were wandering around.
Wandering, what? Do you have anything to do with me?" Hong Yun shook her head and said: "No." After a pause, she continued: "By the way, have you seen Tong Ling? I just went to her room to look for her, but I didn't see her.
"Leng Xuan was slightly startled and said, "I just came back and haven't met her yet. Has she gone out?"
