Therefore, when Tao Xiaowu returns to Wuli, as long as he leaves early in the morning, he can actually arrive by nightfall.
However, Tao Xiaowu's luck was obviously not good today. The axle of the carriage was broken once, and the horse on which one of the guards was riding also sprained its hoof...
This delayed time, so that I couldn't go back to Wuli today anyway.
Tao Xiaowu had no choice but to see that it was getting late, so he had no choice but to say: "Where is the nearest dormitory here? We will stay here!"
"Not far ahead is Longli Township. We can stay in the Xiangting Pavilion for one night!" Qiu Shan already said.
"Okay, then do this!"
Tao Xiaowu said this, but he always felt a little dazed in his heart.
Longli Township is a township under Yangfu County, and it borrowed the accommodation in that township pavilion at this time.
Tao Xiaowu was the Marquis's manor, and no one under him dared to say no to the place.
Not to mention, this is actually the intersection of Yangfu County and Hengyin County, although it is not under the jurisdiction of Yangfu Marquis.
However, the three local stingy men and the others were still very flattering to Tao Xiaowu, the marquis' manor for offering wine, so they naturally gave up the best place for Tao Xiaowu to rest, and also prepared a banquet...
But he was rejected by Tao Xiaowu.
It's so late, what good things can be prepared in a rural place like this?
Not to mention, and for some unknown reason, Tao Xiaowu was in a daze all day today, feeling a little distracted and not in the mood.
I just ate a little and took a rest when I got home.
But he saw Qiu Shan following him. He seemed to have something to say, but he hesitated.
If it were normal, Tao Xiaowu would have noticed this situation long ago.
But today I didn't notice it, and when I was about to enter the house, I was stopped by Qiu Shan: "Witch Master, I don't know why, but I always feel a little frightened today!"
Tao Xiaowu smiled and said: "Is it possible that I am tired..."
Halfway through the words, my heart suddenly skipped a beat, thinking how could a master like Qiu Shan be tired?
Besides, this kind of master is already very keen. Could it be that he sensed danger?
But, why don’t I feel anything at all? Did Qiu Shan get it wrong?
I thought in my mind that something was funny, so I just passed it by in a trance.
But Qiu Shan said: "Don't the Witch Master have any feelings?"
The feelings of practitioners are much more acute than those of warriors.
Tao Xiaowu was about to say that you are worrying too much, but he heard Qiu Shan say: "I think the witch master has been in a trance today and has low energy..."
After hearing this, Tao Xiaowu's heart beat wildly, and a ball of flame finally broke through the fog. The original feeling of being in a trance, as if he couldn't concentrate, suddenly disappeared.
A huge warning sign hit his heart, causing Tao Xiaowu to change his color in an instant: "No, someone cast a spell to deceive me!"
When he thought about this clearly, his face suddenly turned pale.
His cultivation is not weak now, and his perception is naturally sharp.
However, he was blinded by others' spiritual perception, and he didn't feel anything at all. If Qiu Shan hadn't reminded him, he would have been kept in the dark, and he might not have known how he died in the end.
This is how many people were originally smart or wise, but suddenly became stupid and did some unbelievable things that ordinary people would think of as stupid.
For example, foreign firefighters ran into a house where they knew there was a gas leak, but they lit a lighter for lighting...
The younger one said that someone was holding the key and looking for it all over the floor.
Among the people, this is called ghostly obsession.
Of course, this does not mean that these are all enchanted by human magic.
But it can also be seen that this state is really very dangerous!
At this time, Tao Xiaowu had already sensed the danger coming.
Since someone casts this kind of spell and wants to deceive himself, he will naturally have a back-up plan to deal with him!
"Get ready now. Let's leave immediately. Don't take the car. Don't worry about the guards. Let's ride back to the Marquis Mansion! They are fine..."
As long as they don't follow Tao Xiaowu, these guards will be fine.
After all, those are the guards of Yangfuhou Mansion!
"Master Witch, it's dangerous at night. Thanks to the favorable location of the village pavilion, maybe we can defend it better!" Qiu Shan said.
Tao Xiaowu shook his head slightly: "Now that I think about it, the broken axle of the axle and the broken hoof of the horse during the day are both very strange.
In addition, the enemy has been blinding our perception. Maybe the enemy has already planned this place to become our burial place!
On the contrary, if we return overnight, the enemy will never think that there may be a glimmer of hope!"
Qiu Shan was shocked when he heard this, so he stopped talking and quietly went to the stable with Tao Xiaowu to pick up four horses, wrapped the horses' hooves with cloth, and left secretly.
The two of them were very skilled and had magic powers. They left the pavilion without disturbing anyone and took advantage of the darkness to leave.
Then there were one person and two horses, constantly taking turns, galloping back towards the way they came.
Galloping at night is extremely dangerous. If the horse stumbles, it may result in a broken neck or leg!
However, the two of them, relying on their superb skills, didn't care about this and just ran all the way.
After running for more than an hour, suddenly, the moon, which was originally obscured by dark clouds, came out, casting a cool light, illuminating the surrounding area in a bright light.
But then, the moon slowly turned red, and the moonlight fell down, as if the ground was covered with blood.
"No, the pursuers are coming..."
After running wildly for an hour, the pursuers finally arrived. To be honest, it was far beyond Tao Xiaowu's expectations.
Originally, he thought that he would be caught up in less than half an hour.
In fact, Tao Xiaowu already felt that since the enemy used such methods, he must have already prepared a killer move.
Judging from his level of cultivation, this could all be deceived. Obviously, the spell cast by the enemy must be extremely powerful.
In this case, the enemy must have planned a sure kill!
Even if he escaped overnight and returned to the Hou Mansion, which greatly surprised the enemy, his chances of escaping were estimated to be less than 30%.
Seeing this scene, he immediately sneered and slowly stopped his horse.
Under the bloody moonlight, blood seemed to be flowing all over the ground.
Gradually, ghost figures covered in blood crawled out of the bloody water and surrounded Tao Xiaowu and the two like humans and animals.
"He is actually a sinner suppressed in the ghost prison..."
Seeing such a scene, Tao Xiaowu had already guessed that the enemy's plan this time would definitely be a killing blow, but he did not expect that in order to kill him, the enemy would actually release the guilty ghosts in the ghost prison.
The so-called sinful ghosts are naturally those ghosts who have committed extremely heinous crimes and committed unforgivable crimes during their lifetime.
These criminals are just like the felons in prison who are destined to be beheaded.
During wars, these criminals often use these to organize death squads to attack the enemy's formation. If they die, that's it. If they can overwhelm the enemy's formation without dying, they can often be pardoned.
They will all die anyway, but there is still a chance of survival if they rush into battle, so these criminals are the bravest.
