He hid in place and relied on the Qi Condensing Talisman to control his breath. In his mind, he was always following the senses of the Paper Man Talisman, following the evil ghost as it slowly circled up on the mass grave under the moon.
.
"It's also looking for wild ghosts?" Zhang Yan didn't think there would be anything else worthy of such a search besides corpses and ghosts in this mass grave.
Zhang Yan didn't have time to search the entire mass grave before. He just followed the evil-chasing talisman to find a new grave where wild ghosts were hiding. He didn't go anywhere else. Now the tracking perspective of the paper-borrowing talisman revealed that
It seems that this boy-like ghost searched in circles but did not find what he was looking for. In other words, not a single wild ghost was found.
"Could it be that this ghost in the new grave here is the one on this mass grave?" Zhang Yan had some guesses in his mind. But at this time, he couldn't confirm it. He hid it and waited for the boy ghost.
arrival.
After about a meal, just as Zhang Yan guessed, the boy Li Gui who searched carefully did not find any trace of the wild ghost, and finally gradually approached Zhang Yan's location on the mountainside, which is where
The Evil Chasing Talisman confirmed that there was a newborn wild ghost hidden near the tomb.
At this point, Zhang Yan could already see the short boy ghost from his hiding place without the sight of the Paper Man Talisman.
This was not the first time Zhang Yan had encountered a child-like ghost. He was well aware of the deceptive nature of such a ghost. Moreover, there were many descriptions of such child-like ghosts in the Longhu Mountain classics, and he also wrote them down.
There are generally two types of ghosts that look like children. One is like a baby, and the other is like a kid of several years old like this.
There are very few evil ghosts who look like babies. They are usually children who died prematurely, or children who were formed but were forcibly aborted. Most of these children's souls are ignorant when they die, and they cannot become ghosts at all.
.Only the extremely rare babies who are born with souls that are far stronger than ordinary people will form the most primitive obsession to break free from the constraints of heaven and earth due to the clarity of their souls and the desire to survive. And because they are born with bad luck, there is no goodwill in their hearts to counteract it, and they become violent.
Qi is naturally extremely strong, and when you become a ghost, you will directly become a fierce ghost, and it is a rare and powerful existence among fierce ghosts.
This kind of baby is also called a ghost baby.
The other kind is the devil who looks like the boy devil in front of me. They are also called "ghost boys" or "ghost boys".
The formation of ghost children may be more numerous and more complicated than that of ghost babies. Some of them looked like this before they were alive, but after death, their anger changed into fierce ghosts and their habits were retained; there are also some who were adults before death, but in their obsessions they were obsessed with it.
The memory of a certain period of my childhood was full of resentment, so when I became a ghost, I regressed into my childlike appearance.
But compared to the ghost baby's talent, there is nothing special about the ghost baby, and it is not much different from the ordinary ghosts. It's just that the classics of Longhu Mountain say that the ghost baby likes to create some illusions to show pity.
It is their favorite "game" to gain sympathy before revealing their vicious nature.
As far as Zhang Yan himself is concerned, he hates ghost children even more than ordinary ghosts. As for ghost babies, he has never seen them yet.
At this time, Zhang Yan saw that the ghost child seemed to be sniffing the smell, or some special identification method. After testing it left and right, he went straight towards the new grave where the wild ghost was hiding. This posture was also
This confirmed Zhang Yan's previous guess that it indeed came to this mass grave to look for ghosts like Zhang Yan.
"What does it want to do?" Zhang Yan did not move. He was curious about why the other party came to look for ghosts. Generally speaking, although fierce ghosts and wild ghosts are both ghosts, they are two basically unrelated things. Just like coal.
Like diamonds, they are essentially the same, but completely different. But under certain special circumstances, the two can tend toward each other.
In the field of vision, the ghost child was seen floating a foot above the ground, stopping on top of the simple new grave that was like a small earth bag. The expression on his face seemed to be smiling. Then he suddenly plunged into the grave.
"This is......"
It is a soul body, so it is not strange to penetrate into the underground. But Zhang Yan didn't understand what the other party was going down to do? To communicate with the newborn wild ghosts in the grave? But the intelligence of the wild ghosts is not as good as that of the fierce ghosts.
Is there also a possibility of communication?
Just when Zhang Yan opened his eyes and looked curiously, the ghost child appeared again. But this time it was very different when it came out and when it went in. It had a large piece in its mouth and it could be vaguely distinguished that it was
A half-head-shaped fragment of the ghost's soul was dragged out of the tomb with the remaining part of the soul in his hands.
"I..." Zhang Yan's brows suddenly stood up, and anger rose in his heart. He never expected that in just a few blinks of an eye, the ghost child who had plunged into the tomb would actually be hiding in the tomb.
The wild ghost inside was also torn apart! Looking at the broken soul body on the head and the ghost child's constant swallowing movements, Zhang Yan knew that it was too late to stop him. There was no room for salvation with such a damaged soul body.
.
But in his anger, Zhang Yan was also horrified that the ghost boy was not searching, but hunting wild ghosts and eating them as food!
There is still a lot of resentment and resentment in the ghost's soul, and it is not a pure soul. After swallowing, different resentments, resentments, and even residual obsessions will conflict with each other and poison themselves.
Of course, it is not absolute that ghosts cannot eat ghosts. Special situations also exist. According to the records of Longhu Mountain, there is a situation where ghosts can strengthen themselves by devouring each other, achieving the same effect as devouring living souls.
That is the method of ghost cultivation.
But here’s the problem, this is the Wild Sky Realm! It’s not the legendary era of the earth! There are still ghost cultivators here?!
Moreover, according to Zhang Yan's perception, the ghost child in his field of vision who was feasting did not have the aura of ghost cultivators described in the book. From the inside and outside, he felt that he was just an ordinary ghost.
This...isn't this ghost kid really afraid of eating himself up by eating Haisai so much?
In addition, it is difficult to find a ghost in the mass graves here. The only one is a wild ghost born in a new grave. Even the wild ghost was caught and eaten before it could even leave the tomb. Is there any possibility:
The reason why there are no wild ghosts here is because they are hunted down regularly?
He used to hunt down the souls of condemned prisoners at the East Gate Execution Ground, but now he regards the mass graves outside the city as his own cropland, harvesting them from time to time. This can no longer be described as strange, and completely subverts the big idea about the habits of ghosts in Longhu Mountain.
Partial description. If these are still their "instincts", Zhang Yan doesn't believe it. He even believes that the strange behavior of these ghosts in Langyuan City should be planned and purposeful behavior, a strategy to strengthen themselves.
but......
"If you eat up my merits, you have to pay for it yourself." Zhang Yan opened his right hand, and the Wanxiang Pearl in his palm turned into a peach wood sword and he held it, and raised a talisman with his other hand.

"The universe borrows the law, and it is as urgent as the law! Bind!"
