Jiang Ran didn't know much about formations, but he didn't need much.
Although the formation of this fascinating ghost wall is powerful, it is not anti-aircraft...
The two people simply didn't bother to break the formation and flew up directly. In just two steps, they jumped out of the ghost wall.
It is estimated that the people who built this obsessed ghost wall did not expect anyone to break the formation in such a way.
After all, anyone who steps into this place will be fascinated by the patterns on the haunted wall and fall into an illusion that is both real and fake.
Even if they jump up, they can't get rid of the illusion.
You will only feel that everything around you is weird and bizarre, and you will not be able to see Mount Tai even if you are blinded by a leaf.
The Creation Zhengxin Sutra practiced by Jiang Ran is the nemesis of this type of practice.
Therefore, what the world calls the terrifying wall of obsessed ghosts seemed a bit ridiculous in front of him.
After jumping out of the fascinating ghost wall, I walked along the road and before I knew it, I had entered the depths of the Ghost King's Palace.
Along the way, there was still no one around.
A sudden cry came out at this moment. The sound sounded familiar to me. It was the one that came from the eight-carrying sedan chair earlier.
Jiang Ran and Ruan Yuqing looked at each other and immediately followed the sound. A moment later, they saw a pale, eight-carrying sedan in front of a building.
Four lanterns were still hung at the four corners, and cries and begging for mercy came from the sedan.
However, the people who were carrying the sedan chair and playing the gongs and drums all disappeared completely.
Jiang Ran pondered for a moment and slowly pulled Ruan Yuqing to the sedan.
He gently opened the sedan curtain with his scabbard.
"Don't kill me, don't kill me! I don't want to get into the frying pan!!"
A panicked voice suddenly came from the sedan.
Jiang Ran waved his hand, raised the sedan curtain, and hung it on the top of the sedan.
When I looked around, I saw a woman in a white wedding dress, huddled in a sedan chair and shivering.
Her face was covered with snot and tears, which made the pale makeup on her face a mess.
"Girl, don't panic."
Ruan Yuqing spoke at this time:
"We are not evil people. We came across this sedan by chance on the road, so we came after it to investigate."
When the woman heard Ruan Yuqing's voice, she seemed to feel a little at ease. She looked back and forth on the faces of Jiang Ran and Ruan Yuqing, and then she cried and said:
"Help me, please help me!"
"Don't worry, girl, since we are here, we will naturally save you."
Jiang Ran smiled:
"You should get out of the sedan first."
"No...I don't want it!"
The woman shook her head quickly, her eyes full of fear:
“There are ghosts out there, all evil ghosts!!
"I heard that they were escorting the living people to be put into the frying pan..."
"Escort a living person?"
Jiang Ran's heart moved:
"When did you hear it?"
"Just... not long before you guys came here."
The woman whispered: "I heard it, that man couldn't stop yelling... saying that the young master will definitely find him, saying something... saying that his young master will definitely clean up this ghost place once he arrives.
"
"It seems to be Luo Qingyi."
Ruan Yuqing glanced at Jiang Ran.
Jiang Ran nodded slightly and said softly:
"Girl, the young master he is talking about is probably me. Does the girl know where they are going?"
The woman hesitated for a moment, pointed in a direction and said:
"there……"
"Well."
Jiang Ran nodded: "If the girl doesn't dare to come out, just wait in this sedan. But it's okay now and everything is peaceful. But if you wait for a while, nothing may happen.
"When the time comes, I will go rescue my friend, and the girl will have no one to protect her..."
"this……"
The woman hesitated for a while:
"Then I, come out...you guys, don't leave me alone."
"It's natural."
Jiang Ran smiled and said: "If the girl is by our side, we will definitely protect you."
Hearing what Jiang Ran said, the woman reluctantly nodded and walked out of the sedan cautiously.
But she may have been greatly frightened. When she came out, her hands and feet were weak and she could hardly stand up.
Jiang Ran had no choice but to support her with the scabbard, letting her hold on to the scabbard and stand still.
After carefully observing the girl's appearance, Jiang Ran suddenly let go of Ruan Yuqing's hand.
Ruan Yuqing was stunned:
"What's wrong?"
"Isn't it enough to take advantage? This place is no longer within the scope of the Obsessed Ghost Wall, and you should no longer be fascinated by the illusion.
"I'm just a young man, and I always let you pull me around like this. What will happen if I turn around and be seen by others? Will I still get married?"
"..."
Given Ruan Yuqing's temperament, when she heard these words, she wanted to step on his heel.
This guy is the one who gets a good deal and behaves well.
However, she still quite agreed with Jiang Ran's judgment.
If the 'bride' in the sedan did not lie, Luo Qingyi should have been sane when he was escorted here.
And the girl herself seemed not to have been deceived by hallucinations.
Then it's probably safe here.
He immediately shook the hand that Jiang Ran had held for a long time and gave him a look full of disgust:
"This hand is almost gone."
"Then I'll cut it for you?"
Jiang Ran grinned.
"...Why don't you cut your own?"
Ruan Yuqing was angry.
Jiang Ran smiled: "I can't bear to do it."
Ruan Yuqing's face turned red when she told him, and she rolled her eyes at him:
"Why do you like talking nonsense so much?"
Jiang Ran: "???"
The girl who came out of the sedan heard them talking and was a little confused for a moment.
There are so many weird things here, is it really okay for you to be so playful?
But it also made her feel more at ease, as if the place she was in was no longer so sinister.
After the girl got better, Jiang Ran led the two people in the direction she just mentioned.
While walking, I observed Ruan Yuqing's condition.
The origin of the 'bride' in the sedan has not yet been clarified, and Jiang Ran cannot completely believe what she says.
It is still necessary to carefully observe Ruan Yuqing's condition to avoid any surprises.
At the same time, he also asked about the origin of this girl.
According to her, she is a girl from an ordinary family in a nearby town.
Her surname is Liu, and her name is Liu Xiao'e.
Before what happened, she was washing and resting as usual.
But he didn't expect that when he woke up after a long sleep, he found himself in a sedan chair.
The cramped environment, the clothes on her body, and the surrounding atmosphere immediately frightened her.
What's even worse is that at that moment, it was as if something extremely heavy was weighing on her body.
No matter what, I can't struggle.
This caused her to shout for help and scream.
Unfortunately, this is of no use.
After she was carried here, she didn't know what happened because she didn't dare to look.
All she knew was that after those people put her down, they disappeared without a trace.
Speaking of this, she suddenly said:
"Speaking of which... those evil spirits escorted not only the man who shouted Young Master...
"There seems to be a group of evil spirits, and they are also holding someone captive, but that person didn't say a word. I don't know who they are specifically.
"At that time, I was so scared that I didn't dare to look outside."
Jiang Ran and Ruan Yuqing looked at each other, and then heard Ruan Yuqing ask:
"Then where did this group of people...these evil ghosts go?"
"Yes, it's also in this direction."
When Liu Xiao'e said this, Jiang Ran suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed to a place in front of him.
Ruan Yuqing looked up and saw that the building in front of her was like the other buildings, with green lanterns hanging in front of the door.
It's just that the doors of ordinary buildings are closed, but in this one, the door is open.
When I looked up, there was a big plaque hanging on it with four big words: Soul Soul Gambling House!
When Jiang Ran saw it, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly:
"It's quite interesting..."
"Don't be careless."
Ruan Yuqing reminded softly.
Jiang Ran nodded: "I'm here now, I have to go in and see the owner of the gambling house... I saw few people along the way. However, this gambling house looks peaceful, but there are a lot of people inside.
.”
"people?"
Liu Xiao'e asked softly: "Isn't it a ghost?"
"Where in this world does the ghost come from..."
Jiang Ran chuckled and walked towards the gambling house.
Ruan Yuqing and Liu Xiao'e followed closely behind.
After opening the curtain in front of the door, there were several steps going down. Sitting in front of the counter was a pale man with blush on his cheeks.
He was looking down at the account books. When he heard the movement, he was slightly startled. He looked up and his eyes widened:
"Why is there another stranger?
"Come on, come on, come on, come on! Come on!
"Capture this stranger quickly."
As I said this, I heard the sound of hula hula coming from the inner doors on both sides.
The 'evil ghosts' with their pale faces and red cheeks poured out in a cloud.
Either holding an iron hook or a steel fork in his hand, making a ferocious look and grinning ferociously:
"It's been a long time since I've eaten the heart and liver of a stranger. Today I can have a feast!"
"Why is there a bride beside you?"
"Isn't that the concubine that Lord Jade is planning to take into his room? Why is she here?"
"Have you been overtaken by this stranger?"
Jiang Ran raised his eyebrows and glanced at the weapons in their hands.
I found that it was also engraved with gold inscriptions, just like the one on the wall of the Bewitched Ghost.
As their internal energy stirred up, a faint golden glow came out.
As soon as I thought about it, I turned to look at Ruan Yuqing, and sure enough I found that Ruan Yuqing's face was pale and the hand holding the sword was trembling.
There was a plop on the other end, and Liu Xiao'e sat directly on the ground.
There was extreme terror on his face.
He immediately sighed and reached out to hold Ruan Yuqing's hand. The inner breath of the Good Fortune Sutra turned, and the fear in Ruan Yuqing's eyes suddenly disappeared.
After looking again, he let out a long breath:
"Although I know it may be fake... I still feel fear in my heart.
"What kind of kung fu did they use?"
"If you want to know, just go back and capture the Ghost King and ask him."
When Jiang Ran said this, the face of the man sitting behind the counter changed slightly:
"Be careful, this guy is weird, he seems to have broken the Ghost King's 'Charming Order', take him down quickly!"
As he raised his hand, the 'evil ghosts' around him suddenly flew towards him.
The steel forks and iron hooks in his hands fell one after another.
Jiang Ran flew up with a kick. Before the "evil ghost" who bore the brunt could see clearly what was happening, the whole "ghost" was kicked to the roof by Jiang Ran. Half of his body penetrated the ceiling and was hung on it, unable to get off.
Immediately afterwards, Jiang Ran took action with his blade and slashed diagonally.
With a choked sound, the 'evil ghost' wanted to resist with the iron hook in his hand, but the sharp blade of the broken gold knife was cut into two, and his whole body was also cut open. Half of his body slowly
Falling to the ground, blood sprayed on the faces of the surrounding 'evil ghosts'.
Jiang Ran grinned:
"Which evil ghost can still bleed? This blood is still hot..."
As soon as he finished speaking, he pulled Ruan Yuqing and rushed into the "ghost group". The broken gold knife in his hand drew a golden color, and each knife fell was a "ghost life".
But as soon as I thought about it, three or five 'evil ghost' corpses were already dropped on the ground.
Looking up again, the "evil ghosts" around him were holding weapons and cowering, and no one dared to move forward.
Jiang Ran laughed again:
"This evil spirit is also afraid of strangers?"
"this……"
Even if the man behind the counter wasn't covered in thick putty, his face would still be pale. He said tremblingly:
"You...you are so brave. In my ghost palace...you dare to kill people so wantonly.
"The Ghost King will not let you go!"
"Oh? Did you say it wrong?"
Jiang Ran smiled and said:
"When have I ever killed someone? Isn't the person I killed...a ghost?"
"I……"
The man was stunned, wishing he could give himself two big-eared posts.
Jiang Ran ignored these and just waved his hand gently:
"Let me ask you, you said you saw another stranger today. It can be seen that you saw other people before me.
"Tell me, where is this person now?"
"It's...right inside."
The man didn't dare to hide it and pointed into the gambling room.
Jiang Ran nodded slightly and asked with a smile:
"Can I come in?"
"able!!"
The man nodded quickly without any hesitation.
"That's good."
After Jiang Ran finished speaking, he turned around and tapped Liu Xiao'e's forehead with his finger.
Liu Xiao'e raised her head again, her eyes regained their clarity.
Tears welled up in my eyes:
"What...what's going on? Just now, I seemed to have seen a lot of...a lot of evil spirits. They were holding human heads in their hands, and the heads were still talking...
"Then I saw a person rushing into the crowd of ghosts and killing everyone... But the killed evil ghosts were still moving, and the palms that fell on the ground grew mouths, trying to bite the person, but they couldn't.
I can’t bite it no matter what.”
Jiang Ran found it interesting.
Then he smiled and said:
"Don't worry, it's all fake. Miss Liu, do you want to follow me in to find out?"
"good!"
Liu Xiao'e naturally understood now that Jiang Ran was no ordinary person.
Although these evil spirits are powerful, Jiang Ran seems to be stronger.
Then she stood up obediently, not daring to look anywhere. She couldn't seem to tell which of the corpses on the ground were real and which were fake.
Jiang Ran took Ruan Yuqing and Liu Xiao'e and walked in directly from the doors on both sides.
These 'evil ghosts' outside seem to have really seen evil ghosts.
Wherever Jiang Ran went, they retreated one after another, not even daring to make eye contact with him, for fear that they might accidentally draw this man out and kill them all.
Open the curtain and step into the gambling house.
Then I saw a group of evil gamblers who turned a blind eye to everything around them, just staring at the pai gow, dice, shaking cups and other things on the gambling table, shouting "big big" or "little little little".
Concentrate completely and completely forget yourself.
Afterwards, I either laughed wildly or cried loudly.
In the deepest part of the gambling house, Jiang Ran saw Luo Qingyi tied to a rack at a glance.
In front of him was a middle-aged man with a pale face and a dice-like shape painted on his head.
He was holding a sharp knife in his hand, and while he was muttering something, he was making imaginary scratches with the tip of the knife, as if he was studying how to separate Luo Qingyi.
Luo Qingyi was unafraid, and cursed loudly and filthy...
Seeing this, Jiang Ran grinned and led Ruan Yuqing and Liu Xiao'e away from the 'ghost group' and came to the man's gambling table.
The strange thing is that other gambling tables are full of ghosts, but here, there is not a single "evil ghost".
Luo Qingyi, who was cursing loudly, saw Jiang Ran at a glance and immediately stopped yelling:
"Master!"
The 'evil ghost' with the dice printed on his head turned around, looked at Jiang Ran, and grinned:
"stranger?"
"Stop pretending."
Jiang Ran felt that he was tired of acting with them: "Let them go."
As soon as these words came out, the originally noisy gambling house suddenly fell into silence.
All the 'evil ghosts' who had gathered in front of the gambling table to gamble, stopped what they were doing and looked up at Jiang Ran.
…
…
Wujian Town, Ghost Palace, Pinxin Restaurant.
In the kitchen, a fat, shirtless man with a pale face and a big mouth on his forehead was chewing a mouthful of flesh and blood, his face covered with blood.
After he swallowed the mouthful of meat, he raised his hand.
The fat palm was already dripping with blood and the bones were visible.
He stared at his hands with frightened and hungry eyes, muttering to himself:
"Eat slowly, it's delicious... don't leave any leftovers."
Speaking of this, he suddenly opened his mouth and took a hard bite...
In the restaurant, in the lobby.
There were corpses lying in pools of blood everywhere.
Without exception, these corpses all had pale faces, as if they had been smeared with a layer of white face.
Her cheeks were painted with thick and heavy blush.
Blood flowed from the ground to the door of the restaurant.
Outside the door, a young man with a sallow face was sitting on the steps.
Holding a single sword in both hands, his eyes were still a little frightened.
After a long time, he finally let out a long breath:
"This ghost place...is really not for people to stay in...
"Why do you have to come to a place like this? It's so annoying!
"Now I'm in trouble, and I'm separated from him. If something happens to him... Well, that's impossible."
He stood up and looked back at the four characters "Pinxin Restaurant".
His face was full of struggle.
After a long time, he let out a long sigh:
"That's all, don't think about it anymore, you can't really let me be eaten by that trash."
When he said this, a burst of laughter suddenly came from his ears.
Then a voice sounded faintly from my ears:
"Sir, have you ever seen my unmarried bride?"
This voice sounded feminine and charming at first.
When I got to the second half of the sentence, my voice suddenly became thick and thick, and turned into a man's thick and steady voice.
