It was already dark, and I could barely see the road on the ground.
Two fast horses came from the direction of Guobei County and galloped towards Lanruo Temple under the cover of night. They were very fast and could be said to be non-stop.
These two people were the guards sent by Li Xiuyuan to pick up the golden statue from Lanruo Temple.
One is named Ma Dong and the other is named Niu Er. They both went to the ghost market with Li Xiuyuan, entered the Chu Family Cemetery, visited Hua County, and met people who married ghosts.
It can be said that the two of them have developed their courage and are not afraid of ghosts.
Without fear in their hearts, these ordinary ghosts would have to stay away. In addition, they always carry a willow stick around their waist, which is a sharp tool for fighting ghosts. The ghosts that can be beaten with a stick will scream out again and again.
.
With courage and sticks, there are no more ghosts that can stop the two of them.
"Ma Dong, isn't Lanruo Temple also haunted? I heard that there are evil ghosts that eat people. The monks in the temple have abandoned the temple and ran away because of those evil ghosts. Will it be dangerous for us to go to Lanruo Temple?" Niu Er
Suddenly.
"Since the eldest young master asked us to go, it means that nothing will happen. If there is really a danger, how can the eldest young master not say, don't think about it, it is important to hurry up. Although the eldest young master did not say that there is danger in Lanruo Temple, he said
There may be dangers on the road."
Ma Dong said solemnly: "Last time we went to Huaxian County, we fell into the scheme of some women and lost all face. We have to handle the matter well this time, because this time it is much more serious than the last time.
Didn’t you see that the eldest young master’s brows were wrinkled?”
"That's right." Niu Er nodded.
The two men continued on their way.
Suddenly, a golden light flashed in the grass beside the road, but it was a piece of gold hidden in the grass, waiting for someone to pick it up.
"Hey, it's gold again. This trick is of no use to us. The young master showed it to us when we were in the city before. The so-called gold is just the transformation of skull bones. If we pick it up and take it home, it will definitely attract people.
If an evil spirit enters the house, it will be miserable." Ma Dong glanced at it and smiled mischievously, but ignored the gold in the grass.
"That's true, but the eldest young master's words have come true. We are being targeted by ghosts, and they want to confuse us two."
"As long as we don't have any evil thoughts, it will be fine." Ma Dong said again.
The two rode horses for a while, but saw a little donkey appearing on the road ahead. There was a mature and beautiful woman sitting on the small stove. The beautiful woman suddenly turned around and saw the two of them, and said hurriedly
: "Two heroes, I am the wife of a certain family. I was delayed in going to the county to visit my bride. It is getting dark now. If you two heroes can help me give me a ride, I will be very grateful."
After speaking, she bent down slightly to salute, and you could see the snow-white skin on her open skirt, which was particularly attractive.
"No time, go find someone else." Niu Er glared and shouted.
After saying that, the horse accelerated and overtook the woman riding the donkey.
"That woman must be a ghost. This is not the first time we have seen such methods. Some of the eldest young master's friends were deceived by female ghosts. They all look very beautiful, but in fact their true colors may be...
The strong woman with a yellow face may also be a male ghost, or even a dog." Ma Dong said.
Niu Er nodded in agreement.
After walking for a while, suddenly, a wall appeared in front of the two people, blocking their way.
Seeing this, both of them laughed together and said: "The ghost has exhausted its methods. Can a wall be changed to stop us? The eldest young master is still waiting for the golden body of Master Liao Kong from Lanruo Temple to suppress the ghost. What if we
It’s too late to go back. How can we face them if ghosts cause trouble to the people in the future?”
"What I'm saying is that a mere wall wants to block us and watch us smash it into pieces."
The two men were not afraid and rode directly into each other.
Strangely enough, when the two people collided with each other before they were close to the wall, the wall suddenly appeared and disappeared, and the road appeared in front of them again.
After the two of them walked away, two evil ghosts appeared from the roadside.
"We cannot harm these two people. They are not greedy or lustful. They have no evil thoughts in their hearts. Our methods cannot confuse them."
"More than that, their thoughts are too stubborn. They can even break through our ghost wall. From this, it can be seen that the purpose of their trip is very important. It is for a great merit. Then
When good thoughts sprout, they are harder than the wall. If they hit us, they will definitely hurt us. If we forcefully find the two of them as substitutes, we will definitely receive severe retribution."
"What it means is that we have to find two greedy and lustful people as substitutes. Only such people are easy to fall for the bait."
The two evil ghosts whispered to each other, then turned into the evil wind and disappeared.
As they retreated, several nearby dark winds also dispersed in all directions. They all thought that Ma Dong and Niu Er could not be confused, so they all chose to give up.
At this moment.
Li Xiuyuan jumped into the pit while riding a dragon horse.
After falling for several breaths, he finally landed on the ground.
There is a huge hole in front of the ground.
Gusts of dark wind blow out from this big hole, but on the other side of the big hole, it seems to be connected to a world, which contains the ruins of palaces, various sacrificial objects in tombs, as well as collapsed city walls and
house.
It looks like there is an abandoned city inside.
"This is a ghost city in the underworld. I didn't expect that the gap was opened so accurately, and it actually opened up a ghost city." Li Xiuyuan's expression changed, and he got off his horse.
He has been to the underworld, more than once, and knows that the underworld is just like the mortal world, very vast, and in the underworld, although there are countless ghosts and ghosts, they are all gathered in the ghost city.
Just like mortals living in a city.
In this ruin-like city, Li Xiuyuan saw pale ghosts gathering here. In addition, there were many tall and ferocious ghosts. They all obviously knew that there was a way to this place.
There was a gap in the underworld, so they all rushed here, preparing to return to the upper world through this gap.
"Your road to the underworld ends here. I will guard this place so that you, the evil ghosts, must retreat quickly."
Li Xiuyuan strode over, entered the underworld, stood in front of the gap and shouted loudly.
His aura spread out, and the ruins and buildings of the nearby ghost town immediately turned into ashes and turned into paper houses used for sacrifices in the tombs.
This is because he dispelled the power of the ghost attached to it and directly returned it to its original shape.
As soon as his words came out, at least thousands of innocent ghosts who had gathered here stopped in their tracks.
Li Gui, who was walking in front, didn't seem to believe Li Xiuyuan's words, so he continued to walk a few steps forward. When he came into contact with Li Xiuyuan's aura, it was as if he had encountered boiling oil. He screamed and quickly retracted.
