Seeing that his words were all in vain, Xu Junming had no choice but to give him a 'Heart-Purifying Talisman'.
Ignoring the surprised changes in his body, he asked, "Dao Zhang Xu, why are there so many ghosts in my old mansion?!"
"I still want to ask you about this. This damn house is almost turning into a ghost nest. Why didn't you tell Pindao earlier?!"
Thinking that he almost died there, Xu Junming felt angry.
"This... Taoist Priest, we really don't know!"
"Where are the monks and Taoists you invited before? Didn't you say that?"
Butler Zhang hesitated for a moment.
"Most of the ghost-catching Taoist priests we invited didn't come out. The occasional ones who came out kept it secret. They just said they couldn't solve it and left in a hurry. So, today we also learned that there are so many ghosts in the house!" Speaking of ghosts,
Even with the 'Pure Heart Talisman', Butler Zhang's face became a bit pale, with fear in his eyes.
"real?"
"How can I dare to lie after seeing the Taoist Master's magical powers?"
Judging from his expression, it didn't look like he was lying. Xu Junming frowned.
"It shouldn't be. Why haven't so many ghosts been taken away by the underworld?!!"
It would make sense if there were so many ghosts gathered deep in the mountains, under the ground, in such an inaccessible place. But in a densely populated place in Tanzhou City, there are so many ghosts, and the underworld will not accept them, nor will they cross the human world, how is it possible?!!
Xu Junming was puzzled!
"Taoist priest, the ghost in my old mansion...?"
"I'm sorry for my incompetence, please ask someone else to do it. Farewell!"
Unless he thinks he has a long life, he will never go in a second time before his strength is reached.
Without giving Butler Zhang a chance to reply, he grabbed his hair and ran away.
"Taoist Priest...!"
Before he finished speaking, he was already flying away.
"Butler, are we still here?"
The servant next to him asked with a horrified look on his face.
Butler Zhang fearfully glanced at the house next to him that was shrouded in darkness and harbored countless ghosts, and his tone was firmer than ever.
"Come on, let's get out of here!"
…
After a few hundred meters away from the old residence of Cen Mansion, Xu Junming stopped the Hu Tian Shen practice and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Finally a near miss!"
Looking at Mao Tou who became silent beside him.
"You brat, why don't you say anything? Are you scared to death?"
It's rare that Mao Tou didn't object.
"Taoist Priest, I feel a little panicked!"
Seeing his tight face, Xu Junming smiled and said: "It's strange that I don't panic after seeing so many ghosts."
Mao Tou frowned and did not reply.
Seeing that it was not far from Mao Tou's house, Xu Junming stopped using the magic technique.
Two figures, one big and one small, walked through the streets and alleys, and soon arrived at the entrance of the alley.
Sudden!
A faint fishy smell floated into Xu Junming's mouth and nose.
The monk is born with keen senses, and he believes that he will never hear anything wrong.
Frowning slightly, he looked at the alleyway hidden in the darkness.
"Something is wrong!"
He stopped, but Mao Tou continued to move forward without stopping.
Suddenly, countless flapping wings sounded from the darkness.
Xu Junming's expression changed.
"not good!"
He took a step forward like lightning and stood in front of Mao Tou.
"Shangqing Clan Law, Flame Technique!"
With the help of magic power, scorching flames flew out from the seal in his palm, and a crimson fireball with a diameter of five feet rolled forward.
The tongues of fire rolled violently, swallowing up all the demons and monsters.
In the blink of an eye, the alley within thirty meters was burned to a white ground by the fire!
The seal changed, the mana was withdrawn, and the fireball gradually extinguished.
But the scorching heat around them and the sparks all over the ground speak of the domineering power of the flames.
Since he mastered the flame talisman, Xu Junming rarely uses it.
It's not that he's unskilled, but since he started traveling on the mountain, he has mostly dealt with zombies and ghosts. Against these evil monsters, the Pure Yang Talisman has a stronger effect than the Flame Talisman.
He stretched out his hand and a three-inch-long scorpion with a dark purple carapace and faintly broken wings appeared in front of him.
"Flying Scorpion Gu?!"
Xu Junming's expression turned cold.
Maoshan Nanzong is located in the southern border of China, and it is close to the southwest border where witchcraft is flourishing. The two sides have had frequent contacts for two thousand years.
As an authentic Taoist in China, everyone in Maoshan dislikes these guys who are tinkering with poisonous insects and playing with souls.
As a disciple of Maoshan inner sect, Xu Junming naturally looked down upon them.
However, hate them, but Maoshan Nanzong knows a lot about them.
Flying Scorpion Gu is a common war Gu among black seedlings in southern Xinjiang. Rumor has it that the Gu Master collected a poisonous insect from the hybridization of 100,000 exotic scorpions and six-winged centipedes in the mountains. It is not only highly poisonous, but also has a hard carapace.
, flight is extinct, very powerful.
"Fortunately, there is only one pair of wings. If there were two pairs, the flames just now might not be able to burn them to death!"
The strength of the Flying Scorpion Gu depends on the number of wings. A Flying Scorpion Gu with a pair of wings can only deal with monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage. If the number exceeds a hundred, be careful even in the Innate Stage.
The Flying Scorpion Gu with two pairs of wings is already invulnerable to fire and water, is difficult to damage with swords, and is extremely difficult to deal with. If there are a hundred of them, and they are in the late innate stage or below, unless they have a special magic weapon, they will definitely be defeated.
As for the Flying Scorpion Gu with three pairs of wings, one can be comparable to a first-class magic weapon. One or two hundred can deal with ordinary monks in the early stage of the Golden Core. If there are tens of thousands, they will have to flee in the later stages of the Golden Core.
Fortunately, it is difficult for Gu insects to advance. There are not many Flying Scorpion Gus with two pairs of wings; there are even fewer flying Scorpion Gus with three pairs of wings.
A burst of flame flew from his palm, burning the remaining corpse to ashes.
Xu Junming pulled Mao Tou, took a step forward, and appeared again at Mao Tou's home.
The strong smell of blood instantly entered the mouth and nose. Not only Xu Junming, but Mao Tou also smelled it.
"Grandpa, Xiaohua?"
Mao Tou yelled and ran towards the main room.
Xu Junming arrived first and beat Mao Tou unconscious with his palm knife.
Holding him in his arms and walking into the main room, he saw a snow-white skeleton lying quietly on the ground. There was no trace of flesh and blood on the bones, and bite marks of varying depths were all over his body.
The ground beneath the bones was soaked with blood.
The identity of this skeleton, which clearly belongs to an adult, is not difficult to guess.
Xu Junming's face was ashen, and it was obvious that Mr. Ma was bitten to death by a poisonous insect. He knocked Maotou unconscious because he didn't want him to see this scene.
He knew very well the pain of losing the only loved one.
After using the Pure Heart Talisman to calm down the anger in his heart, Xu Junming's consciousness swept across and found no trace of the six children, including Da Zhuang and Xiao Hua.
But depending on the situation, it may be more dangerous than bad.
"I won't even spare a child, it's unforgivable!!... Taishang Wuji, Bai He is looking for traces, as urgent as the law!"
A one-foot-long white feathered crane flew out from Xu Junming's palm, circled above the bones three times, then flapped its wings and flew towards the north.
Xu Junming took a step forward, activated the Hu Tian Shen technique, and quickly followed up.
Not long after, we arrived outside a large house.
He took back the white crane and looked at the familiar house.
“It’s actually here?!”
It was here that he saved the soul of Huang Yuanjia's child.
"I didn't intend to meddle in other people's business, but I didn't expect that I would inevitably end up doing it in the end!"
Looking at the silent courtyard immersed in the dark night, Xu Junming sneered in his heart.
The Gu Master deliberately left a dozen Flying Scorpion Gus and the skeleton of Father Ma in order to stimulate him and make him angry and come for revenge. Then he ran into the dragnet set by the Gu Master.
