Withered vines and old trees, small bridges and flowing water.
Since Mr. Chen's nightmare began three months ago, this long-forgotten backyard has become lively again, with monks and Taoists coming and going constantly, chanting sutras and worshiping gods at the altar.
The backyard, which originally showed a kind of decayed beauty everywhere, was now filled with smoke, and yellow paper filled the sky with green smoke.
"Taoist priest, my daughter is held hostage by a ghost in the dry well in the backyard. I hope the Taoist priest can rescue the little girl."
Outside the backyard door, Mr. Chen, who looked grieved, said with some choking. The torture during this period of time had exhausted Mr. Chen's energy. His whole person looked old and decayed, and there was a faint air of death all over his body.
"Haha, don't worry, Master Chen. It's just a ghost. I can capture Master Tao. However, Master Chen, don't forget the benefits promised earlier."
The vicious Taoist glanced at Mr. Chen, patted his chest, and said generously. Then, his voice changed, and his tone revealed some eagerness to point out the benefits.
"Don't worry, Taoist Priest. Even if the evil ghost cannot be driven away, our Chen Mansion will still give you a reward and we will never treat Taoist Priest badly."
After hearing this, the vicious Taoist finally grinned, showing his yellow teeth.
"That's good. Mr. Chen will wait here."
With that said, the vicious Taoist took the lead and stepped into the backyard, followed closely by the fool.
"Snapped!"
Just as he entered the backyard, when Master Chen was no longer visible, the vicious Taoist turned around, his originally good-looking face instantly turned gloomy, and suddenly slapped the stupid disciple behind him staggering.
Like a gourd rolling around, the idiot turned around twice, and finally couldn't bear it any longer. The gray package on his back fell to the ground with a thud, creating a heavy pit and countless
The gold and silver treasures shook out from it, and the gold was so bright that it dazzled people's eyes. If it were not for the support of the copper stick with a black flag hanging on the right hand, I would have collapsed on the ground.
"Hey master, hey it hurts"
The stupid disciple turned around in a daze, and saw the vicious Taoist staring at him fiercely, grinning stupidly, and while talking, he rubbed his face and shouted in pain with some unclear words.
"You still know it hurts? Why don't you hurt me to death? If you make me look embarrassed to the Taoist Master, I will kill you sooner or later."
The vicious Taoist seemed to be furious, pointing at the stupid disciple and yelling curses. It took a full quarter of an hour before he gradually stopped.
"Bah, you're such a fool, hurry up and catch up!"
Saying that, he should take the first step and walk towards the depths of the inner courtyard.
Behind him, the originally stupid disciple looked at the Taoist's leaving figure. There seemed to be an unusual color in his eyes. However, if he looked carefully, it seemed that he was no different from usual, and he still looked naive and silly.
It was almost evening now, and the gloomy sky seemed a little gloomy. Grass and moss were densely covered in the gaps between the ancient stone bricks. On the stone path, a few pieces of yellow paper stained with dew lay alone. Occasionally, two crows were heard chirping, accompanied by
The dark wind blowing from time to time gives people an eerie feeling.
It's just that no matter the Taoist or the disciple, they didn't care about the surrounding environment at all. The deeper they went, the heavier the yin energy around them became, and finally the two stopped at a dry well.
The dry well in front of you is completely made of bluestone. The diameter of the wellhead is about half the size of a person. The bluestones are tightly connected. It is obvious that the craftsmen who built the well were very skilled.
"The Yin Qi in the dry well has condensed and has turned into ghost Qi. I think the soul of Miss Chen's family should be inside. Hehe, there are one hundred thousand ghosts, and there are still seventy-two people left. Taoist has been collecting them for seven years
, this Haunted Soul Banner is finally almost completed!”
The vicious Taoist licked his lips, took the copper pole and black flag from the stupid disciple, and started caressing it carefully, as if caressing the girl's skin, with a look of disgusting enjoyment on his face.
"Hehehe"
The silly disciple was holding a half-human-sized gourd and staring at the Taoist with a silly smile.
Glancing at his disciple, the Taoist ignored him. He stretched his head and looked into the dry well. It was so dark that he couldn't see anything. The Taoist didn't care and took out a light yellow card from his robe.
of talisman paper.
The talisman paper is the size of a palm, with red lines of cinnabar and dancing dragons and phoenixes imprinted on it. On the surface, it looks similar to the things used by those charlatans to deceive people. However, as the Taoist gently rubs the talisman paper between his two fingers, the talisman paper is rubbed with two fingers.
The lines on the talisman seemed to light up, and then, an extremely hot power spread from the talisman paper.
There was a faint muffled sound of "pop", and the extremely fiery talisman in his hand was directly annihilated and turned into a fireball the size of an egg.
The fireball in front of me was dark red. If it weren't for the constantly beating flames, it would have looked like a piece of blood jade floating in the air. However, the high temperature escaping from it made the surrounding air slightly distorted, which was obviously caused by the extreme heat.
The moment the fireball appeared, the originally cold and damp air around it instantly became hot, as if you were standing next to a stove. With a wave of the Taoist's hand, the fireball seemed to be affected by some kind of force and fell directly towards the well.
The fireball talisman is the most common low-level talisman in the world of immortality. It seals spiritual power in it and can activate it directly when it is used. It does not need to consume your own spiritual power, and its power is not bad.
As the fireball fell into the well, the Yin Qi that had been condensed in the dry well exploded directly like a burning fire cooking oil. The Yin Qi invisible to the naked eye billowed out from the well mouth like thick smoke, which was no more than half a cup of tea.
Kung Fu has spread over thirty feet around.
A biting and cold feeling permeated the surroundings, and at the same time, the wind blew repeatedly, and a spiritual wave containing strong anger spread from the rich Yin Qi.
"Eh? It's actually a ghost that hasn't condensed yet?!"
A dark light flashed in the Taoist's eyes, and after a moment, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
While the vicious Taoist was observing the other person, the Yin Qi suddenly rolled violently in front of him. In the blink of an eye, the Yin Qi condensed and turned into the shape of a three-pronged evil ghost. With a roar, it rushed towards the Taoist.
"Evil beast, seeking death?!"
It seemed that he did not expect that the ghost in front of him would dare to attack him first. The vicious Taoist was stunned and became furious. There was a black light on his palms and he smacked the attacking ghost in the head.
After all, the vicious Taoist is a cultivator at the sixth level of Qi Refining. Facing this kind of ghost that has not yet been condensed and formed, there is no pressure at all. When he raises his hands and falls, he only hears a "pop" sound, and the seemingly ferocious and ferocious ghost is directly photographed.
It dispersed and turned into a ball of Yin Qi again.
After a successful blow, the Taoist's face not only showed no expression of joy, but instead became more serious.
"Huh, I do have some skills."
The Taoist snorted coldly, his tone a little unkind. As for the stupid disciple sitting on the side, he sat down on the stone next to him, holding a big gourd in his arms, and found half a piece of greasy oil cake from somewhere.
While chewing, he giggled like he was watching a monkey show.
But within two breaths, the ghost that had originally collapsed into Yin Qi condensed again, but this time it turned into a ghost with a tiger head and body, roared, and flew towards the Taoist again.
This time, the Taoist did not rush to take action, but swayed and dodged. At some point, another talisman appeared in his hand, and with a slight push, he placed it directly on his chest.
Suddenly, a thin layer of golden light spread out around the talisman paper, like a soft golden garment, wrapping the Taoist in the golden light. At the same time, the black flag held by the Taoist in his left hand gently flickered.
Throw it away, move it in front of you.
"Hehe, a born ghost can defeat ten ghosts. It seems that Master Tao is in good luck today!"
The vicious Taoist showed greed on his face, and with a strong force, he inserted the Yinhun Flag straight into the ground, then sat cross-legged, with his eyes slightly closed, and quickly made seals with both hands. Suddenly, the spiritual power in his body condensed into a ball, and followed the Taoist
The pinched seal shot towards the Yinhun Banner.
As the spiritual power continued to be poured into it, the black flag surface slowly stretched out, without wind, and at the same time, a dark and obscure aura spread from the flag surface.
The ghost, which was originally baring its teeth and claws, trying desperately to break through the golden light shield, seemed to feel the danger. A flash of anthropomorphic fear flashed on its face, turned around, and fled directly towards the dry well.
"Humph, don't you think it's too late if you want to run away now?"
The ferocious Taoist opened his eyes at some point, a cold look flashed across his face, and the magic formula in his hands slightly changed. On the flags that were half a foot long, black light lingered, and one foot was covered with a car hood.
Big and small ghost faces roared out from it, and while roaring, they had already caught up with the ghost that was about to escape into the dry well. They opened their mouths wide and swallowed the ghost whole into their mouths, chewing it with big mouthfuls.
It took half a meal, but when the ghost face finally swallowed the ghost thing, it seemed that he was still not satisfied. He looked around with his empty eyes, and suddenly opened his mouth wide, like a whale swallowing a cow, surrounded by a thick smoke of Yin Qi.
They directly gathered into a stream and rushed towards Ghost Face's mouth.
Seeing this scene, not only did the vicious Taoist's face show no joy, but his complexion changed drastically, his hands moved continuously, and he quickly began to perform the art. At the same time, the spiritual power in his body surged towards the Yin Hun Banner.
