Taoist Wild Dog, who had entered the gate of hell but was lucky enough to be pulled back, had several wounds on his body bandaged. He still looked weak, but he was lying on the ground, breathing weak but calmly, temporarily.
There is no longer any fear for life.
Xiao Huan, who had rescued Taoist Wild Dog, was also unconscious at the moment, but she was just overexerted and was not seriously injured. The other two sober people present knew this, so they did not worry too much.
.
For Zhou Yixian, what he is concerned about at the moment, or what he is wary of, is the mysterious man who just rescued Xiaohuan. At this moment, he has recognized this mysterious man in black. He is no stranger to him.
Not long ago, he had seen the mysterious man in Yi Zhuang in Heyang City at the foot of Qingyun Mountain. He didn't expect to meet this man again today.
Zhou Yixian sat next to his granddaughter Xiaohuan, his eyes drifting to the black figure standing with his hands behind his back from time to time. With his experience, he naturally knew that this person's practice in the ghost way was not trivial, but he seemed to be an enemy that day.
Not a friend, I didn’t expect that the man in black would come to rescue Xiao Huan today. Fortunately, Gui Li helped me when they met last time, and Yi Xian and the other two escaped just now. In this situation, although the man in black’s purpose is unknown, he still
The lives of the three people around him really depended on his thoughts.
Zhou Yixian was thinking secretly here. The man in black, Mr. Gui, who secretly followed Gui Li all the way south, seemed to be standing by with confidence, but he didn't know that he was also quite hesitant in his heart. It was really against his will to save people this time.
His usual style is just that the ghost art he practices has always been a weird and vicious evil art in the eyes of the world. It is unique among the three true sects of Taoism, Buddhism and Demonism and the witchcraft of southern Xinjiang. However, according to the world,
In other words, even the Demon Sect, which has always had a very bad reputation, actually looks down on the Ghost Sect. For many years, almost all the people in the Ghost Sect have quietly continued in a kind of darkness. Mr. Ghost can be treated by the Ghost King, the leader of the Demon Sect's Ghost King Sect, but
An anomaly, but also for another reason.
It is precisely because of this that although the ghost path with mysterious origins continues to this day, the population is extremely thin, and no one can tell when it stopped. Think about it, if you are a normal person, there are not many people at all.
I would think of practicing this weird magic that deals with the gloomy ghost world all day long.
Mr. Ghost has been practicing for many years, and his Taoism is so high that he is a first-class figure in the world. Among the ghosts, there is no one who can match him. He has always been hard-hearted, which is also the result of practicing the magic of ghosts.
Unexpectedly, that night, I suddenly saw Xiaohuan, at such a young age, performing extremely advanced soul-collecting magic in the ghost world. This shock was extraordinary. First of all, I was shocked that Xiaohuan, a young and beautiful woman, was in the ghost world.
On the Tao lineage, it seems that he has incredibly high talents; what is even more shocking is that although this soul-collecting magic is a secret method of ghosts, it has been lost for many years.
Even the great master and expert of the art didn't know it, but Xiao Huan actually used it. How could he not be shocked?
When Xiao Huan forcibly collects the soul, although Mr. Ghost does not know the magic of soul collection, he is so accomplished in the ghost way and his own vision is unique. It can be seen at a glance that although Xiao Huan is talented, he is too forceful after all.
Sure enough, within a short while, although Xiaohuan was able to capture the soul of the wild dog Taoist among countless ghosts to his surprise, he had already angered countless evil souls and was backlashed by the ghost energy. When he was about to die, for some reason
, Mr. Ghost couldn't sit idly by and finally came to the rescue.
Although he didn't know the soul-collecting magic, he was more than capable of dealing with these ordinary ghosts. Once he took action, he immediately urged the magic circle to protect Xiaohuan, allowing Xiaohuan to complete the soul-collecting magic. However, after what happened, he
But he hesitated a little, not knowing what to do next.
The atmosphere in the field was so awkward for a while. It wasn't until a long time later that Xiaohuan moved and finally woke up. He softly called out: "Grandpa." Then he opened his eyes.
Immortal Yiyi was overjoyed and quickly helped Xiaohuan up. Xiaohuan looked tired and weak, but she seemed to be fine. After calming down, she immediately turned to look at the wild dog Taoist priest, only to see the wild dog lying on the ground.
Although the injury was serious, his breathing was calm, and he had obviously come back to life. Only then did Xiaohuan smile.
She turned her eyes back and realized that there was a man in black around her. She couldn't help but be startled. Then she recognized it. This man was vaguely the mysterious man in black who was in Heyang City that day. She couldn't help but shrink back.
He said in surprise: "Grandpa, he, why is he here?"
Zhou Yixian helped Xiaohuan stand up and whispered: "I don't know how he came here suddenly, but at the critical moment when you were casting a spell, he was the one who came to the rescue, and this saved you and the wild dog from danger.
"
When Xiao Huan heard what Zhou Xian said, he immediately remembered that he had been casting spells until the last moment, but after all, he was not practicing enough and was attacked by ghosts. Just when he was about to end up with a thousand ghosts eating his heart, the formation in his hand suddenly became powerful.
He drove away all the ghosts around him. Such a great method was accomplished. It seemed that they were all saved by this mysterious man in black.
Thinking of this, Xiaohuan slowly nodded to Mr. Ghost and said, "Thank you very much, senior."
Mr. Ghost seemed to turn a blind eye to Xiao Huan's gratitude, but suddenly asked in a cold voice: "Little girl, I have a few things to ask you. I hope you answer me truthfully."
Xiaohuan was startled, and at the same time she felt Yiyi Xian's hand holding her body gently pulling her. She hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Senior, if you have anything to say, feel free to ask."
Mr. Ghost nodded and said: "Ghost magic has always been kept secret. Where did you learn this kind of ghost magic?"
Xiaohuan was stunned for a moment and said: "Ghost way, what ghost way?"
Behind him, Yi Xian sighed secretly, but the ghost gentleman in front of him was surprised, but looking at the surprised look on Xiaohuan's face, it didn't seem like she was faking it. She seemed to really not know that this was the so-called ghost magic. After a moment of silence
, Mr. Ghost said: "The soul-collecting technique you just performed is actually the most profound and wonderful magic in the ghost way. Don't you know?"
Xiaohuan shook his head in confusion and said, "I, I don't know."
Mr. Ghost immediately asked: "Then from whom did you learn this soul collecting technique?"
Xiaohuan shook his head and said, "No one taught me."
Mr. Ghost was startled and heard Xiao Huan continue: "This soul collecting technique was created when I was naughty when I was a child. I was playing around in my grandfather's old house and accidentally fell into a dry well. I found these techniques recorded on the wall of the well. I
I was still young at the time, so I learned it haphazardly, and I only used it once in so many years. What, senior, are you very interested in this spell?"
Mr. Ghost was speechless, but after a long time, he sighed. His voice was quite desolate, but there was a sense of desolation.
Xiaohuan and Zhouxian looked at each other, wondering why the man in black suddenly became depressed, but after a moment, they suddenly heard Mr. Ghost calling in a hoarse voice from the front: "Little girl, what's your name?"
"
Zhou Yixian frowned, but Xiaohuan had already answered, "My name is Xiaohuan."
Mr. Ghost nodded and said, "I have something to say to you alone. Can you come over?"
Zhou Yixian frowned, obviously not wanting Xiaohuan to stay with this ghostly guy, but Xiaohuan didn't think much about it. Thinking that this person had saved his life just now, he nodded and said: "Okay.
." After that, he ignored Zhou Yixian's secret obstruction and walked over.
Mr. Ghost watched Xiaohuan walk up to him and nodded slowly, seeming to be quite approving of this young woman. When Xiaohuan approached, he slowly, as if he was thinking carefully about something while speaking, whispered in a low voice.
: "Are you willing to practice this ghost magic?"
Xiaohuan was stunned and speechless for a moment, but looking at Mr. Ghost's piercing eyes behind his black gauze mask, it was obvious that he was not joking, and he felt a little hesitant.
Mr. Ghost has so much experience. He carefully looked at Xiaohuan's face and expression and guessed her thoughts. He didn't force her at the moment and just said: "When you cast the spell just now, you faced countless ghosts. How did you feel in your heart?"
Xiaohuan's face turned red, then turned pale again, and whispered: "I, I'm a little scared."
Mr. Ghost said calmly: "It's not a shame for you to be afraid. People in the world are ignorant and are afraid of ghosts and spirits, but they don't know that ghosts are just a kind of thing after death and before rebirth. What people fear is mostly their own hearts.
It’s just a demon.”
He pointed at the small ring and said: "Take you for example, you were afraid when you cast the spell just now. Although you can still cast the spell, you must have countless illusions and all kinds of ferocious and violent scenes in front of you?"
Xiaohuan nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes."
Mr. Ghost snorted and said: "In fact, the most important thing about the so-called ghost way is to control the inner demons. If you are calm, all the ghosts and monsters will not be able to change your mind. And if you think carefully, the reason why those ghosts are angry and backlash is...
It's very abominable and violent, but they don't know that they are just like countless people in this world. Once they see the opportunity to escape alive and return to Yangshou, how can they not go crazy?"
He put his hands behind his hands and sneered: "Isn't it ridiculous for people in the world to accuse ghosts of being ferocious, but they don't know that they are the same?"
Xiaohuan looked thoughtful and nodded slowly.
Mr. Ghost added: "I know your thoughts and hate the reputation of the ghost world, but you just used ghost magic to save that wild dog's life. It can be seen that the ghost world is not without its merits. Today I want to see how you are in the ghost world."
There are extraordinary talents along the way that are rare to see in a hundred years. I really can't bear to miss them, so I am determined to teach you." At this point, he smiled faintly and said, "As for the future, if you find out how evil I have been and want to kill me,
It doesn’t matter. We people in the ghost world regard these vulgar rituals as nonsense.”
Xiao Huan was startled and took a step back.
Mr. Ghost was silent for a moment, and looked at the small ring again. He was very hesitant on the small ring, and frowned from time to time on his delicate face. Mr. Ghost didn't say much, and reached out and took out a book and a half from his arms.
He pointed at the generous black wordless book and threw it to Xiaohuan. Xiaohuan subconsciously caught it and looked at him in astonishment.
Mr. Ghost said calmly: "What is recorded in this book are some of the insights I have gained from practicing the ghost way for half my life. There are many methods of weapon refining in it that I am confident that no one in the world can compare with them. It doesn't matter whether you learn it or not.
, it’s all up to you.” After saying that, he turned around and wanted to leave.
Xiaohuan looked at his back and subconsciously shouted, "Senior, wait."
Mr. Ghost paused and said, "What?"
Xiao Huan choked for a moment and said after a while: "I, I still don't know your name, senior?"
Mr. Ghost turned his back and remained motionless. After a long time, he said calmly: "I'm not teaching you the technique to ask you to remember me. You can just do it yourself."
After that, he stood up and wanted to move forward. Xiaohuan looked anxious and suddenly said loudly: "Here, you saved my life and taught me Taoism. I must, I must call you master, right?"
Mr. Ghost's body was shaken, as if the words of the young and pretty woman behind him were more intense to him than the five thunderbolts. But after all, he had practiced very deeply and quickly regained his composure. He slowly turned around and said,
His face was covered with gauze, so no one could see his face, but from his sparkling eyes, anyone could see that he was in an unusual mood at the moment.
"You call me master?"
Xiao Huan's face turned red and she felt a little embarrassed. She said, "This is what I thought of myself. If, if you don't want to, senior, I"
Mr. Ghost suddenly said: "Okay, stop talking."
Xiao Huan was startled, and looked up, only to see Mr. Ghost glance deeply at Xiao Huan, nodded, reached into his arms again, took something out, handed it to Xiao Huan, and said: "Look, you called me."
As soon as Master comes, I will give this to you."
Xiaohuan looked down and saw a stack of seven dark triangular pieces, each half an inch in size, with smooth edges. The material could not be seen, and looked like iron but not iron. Xiaohuan hesitated and looked at Mr. Ghost.
, seeing that his eyes were quite relaxed, he reached out and took it. Looking carefully, he saw that these triangular pieces had a small hole at the top, and a dark red silk rope was tied in the hole to tie them together. On each triangular piece, there were two sides, front and back.
They all have different dark red mysterious patterns, some are like burning flames, and some are like roaring beasts, and they are all different. When you take it in your hand, you will feel the coldness of the tentacles, and at the same time, there is a faint smell of blood.
Behind him, Yi Xianyi had sharp eyes and could see at a glance that these triangular pieces were exactly what Mr. Ghost had used to save Xiao Huan just now.
Mr. Ghost said lightly: "This thing is called 'Blood Jade Bone Piece'. It is the most precious treasure in the ghost realm. It has the miraculous effect of stimulating the ghost realm's strange magic. With this magic weapon, the original fifth-level Taoism can at least
It can reach the seventh level, and if the talent is better, it can even stimulate the tenth level."
Xiaohuan was surprised and happy, nodding his head repeatedly, but Zhouxian Xian shook his head from a distance.
Mr. Ghost stared at Xiaohuan for a long time, then suddenly shook his head and sighed, and said in a low voice: "Counting tonight, you and I have only met twice. It's just fate. You will be successful in your practice in the future. If you have a chance,
," He looked up at the sky and said, "Please help me save someone."
Xiao Huan was startled and said: "Who can save people?"
Mr. Ghost shook his head silently, seemed to smile bitterly, and said: "We will discuss it in the future."
As he said that, he suddenly turned around, as if he didn't want to stay anymore. The black figure shot out instantly like a ghost, and disappeared in the shadow of the dense forest in the blink of an eye. Xiaohuan couldn't call in time, and he couldn't see the black figure as soon as he opened his mouth. Somehow,
The man in black actually gave her a faint and friendly feeling. Xiaohuan sighed and held the string of blood jade bone fragments tightly in her palm.
Yiyi Xian next to him snorted, walked up, took the blood jade bone fragment in Xiaohuan's hand and looked at it carefully, turning it over side by side. Xiaohuan was a little confused and said: "Grandpa, what's wrong?"
Zhou Yixian sneered and said: "You are a good master, do you know what this thing is made of?"
Xiaohuan was startled and asked: "What is it?"
Immortal Zhou Yi said: "This ghost is made from the skull fragments of the most yin people, and I don't know how many human souls are added to it to achieve this effect."
Xiao Huan was stunned for a moment, then took it and took a look, but he couldn't tell that it was human bones. It was more like jade. He couldn't help but rolled his eyes at Yi Xian and said: "Grandpa, is it true? It doesn't look like this."
Human bones?”
Zhou Yixiandeng was immediately furious and said, "You found that ghost-like guy to be your master, so you don't believe me anymore?"
Xiaohuan stuck out her tongue, took the blood jade bone piece into her arms, and said with a smile: "Okay, grandpa, in the future I will only use this thing to do good things, not bad things, isn't that okay?"
Zhou Yixian snorted, turned around and walked away, muttering to himself: "It would be weird to believe you."
Xiaohuan smiled, infinitely charming, and followed her. (To be continued)
