In the ghost cave, Taiye looked serious and questioned Wang Fu.
Wang Fuzheng looked at him and nodded firmly, "I got it all by myself, no one helped me."
Mr. Tai stared at it for a long time and nodded, "You are right."
Now, it was Wang Fu's turn to have questions, "Master Tai, how could you tell?"
Tai Ye raised a bamboo tube and said, "Humans and ghosts have different paths. Once they get entangled, they will leave traces."
"These ghosts have your breath remaining, and there are no traces of anyone else's intervention."
Wang Fu broke out in a sweat. This Mr. Tai was so old. Fortunately, he didn't take out the old evil spirit. Otherwise, if traces of Mu Yuanqing were seen, wouldn't he be exposed?
"After counting, the total of these is one hundred and eighty-three evil ghosts and ten fierce ghosts, depending on the strength and weakness of the species."
Tai Ye counted with his fingers and muttered something.
When Wang Fu saw his gesture, he thought that he was very professional. Mr. Tai also knew arithmetic.
"The equivalent of 8,000 merit points, plus 10% for you, is 8,800 points, how about that?"
Wang Fu thought to himself that this number is really auspicious. Could it be that you just said it casually?
Under normal circumstances, there must be zeros and integers no matter what. Eight thousand is an integer, which is too coincidental.
However, Wang Fu looked at his feet. This was the opponent's territory. In addition, the old man often had an unfathomable masterly demeanor. He must not be stupid.
"Young man, you are redeeming your merit points because you want to hone your spells, right?"
Mr. Tai said with a smile, "I have a reserved item here that ordinary people cannot enjoy. I can provide it to you at a discounted price."
"real or fake?"
Wang Fu always felt that the other person's smile had evil intentions.
"real."
Mr. Tai nodded heavily, "You are also a living person, and I am also a living person. We living people do not lie to living people. Only the worst ghosts will lie to people."
Wang Fu felt awkward no matter what he heard.
"How much?"
Wang Fu asked tentatively.
"Not much, exactly eight thousand."
Wang Fu almost turned around and left. Are you kidding me? With eight thousand merit points, who can afford it?
This extremely precise knife was aimed directly at him.
Wang Fu could conclude that the old man's special project was simply set up temporarily to squeeze out the points he had just obtained.
"Master Tai, farewell. I'm used to being poor. I can't afford such a good project. You go find someone else!"
Wang Fu said firmly, "I still want to practice my spells. You can take me to the Ghost Alliance to practice my skills first. When you are free later, we can pick up and chat."
The young man is so smart that he won’t be fooled at all!
Mr. Tai puffed his beard and stared. If it weren't for the fact that too many people had returned from Gold Mining Town recently and turned in ghost objects one after another, causing too much of the points on hand to leak out, he would have wanted to play tricks on a child.
To be fair, 8,000 points is not much, but at the moment there is a shortage of resources and too many ghosts are pouring into the ghost-suppressing cave, so the credit is not enough.
The exchange system of Yunyangguan has been tested by time, and the law of vicious expansion caused by the excessive issuance of currency has long been understood.
Wang Fu alone redeemed 8,000 points. How could he balance his expenditures if he was not allowed to spend all the money?
"Young man, if Xiang Zi's content allows you to experience the remnants of the evil ghost's power, wouldn't you be tempted?"
Taiye shouted loudly.
Wang Fu stopped and pricked up his ears. What, evil ghost.
"That's right. Deep in the Ghost Suppressing Cave, a ghost treasure was suppressed, stained with the blood of the old ghost head, and containing the residual power of the evil ghost's ginseng."
"If you can give me eight thousand points, I will let you go in and experience it."
Wang Fu was very excited, and then refused on the spot.
"Master Tai, take a closer look at what level I am."
Mr. Tai didn't even look at it, "Young man, you don't need to look at it. Your cultivation level in Yangguandao is the same regardless of whether it's one plate or three stacks."
"That's right."
Wang Fu said unceremoniously, "You let me, a mere Yangguan Dao, experience the power of evil spirits to suppress you. Are you deliberately trying to harm me and empty my balance?"
When Mr. Tai heard this, he thought it could still be done like this, it seemed to work.
As the saying goes, debts disappear when a person dies, and the credit points are calculated on the individual. If the person dies, it can also be...
wrong.
Mr. Tai shook his head seriously. Such crooked ways are definitely not what we should think about.
"Young man, don't worry, I will take action to suppress the evil ghost's power to the limit that you can bear, and I will not hurt your life."
After speaking, he looked at Wang Fu with sincere eyes.
Wang Fu was in a cold war, and the old man had nothing but good things to say. If he still didn't know the truth, he might not be able to get out of this ghost town.
It's also his fault for being so lavish, exchanging 8,000 merit points at a time.
If he were an old man and met a wealthy businessman, he wouldn't be able to grab a knife and kill him quickly.
That’s all.
Wang Fu thought in his mind that if he could get 5,000 merit points, the remaining 3,000 would be enough for him to complete the magic test.
"Master Tai, how about a discount?"
"How much? Let me tell you, if you bargain too harshly, it's easy to lose money at a young age."
The old man has quite a bad mouth.
"How about five thousand?"
"make a deal."
Wang Fu made a slap sign of five, paused in the middle, and blinked, seemingly being fooled.
Alas, five thousand merit points have been wasted.
Wang Fu was heartbroken. It was his first time here and there were no elders around to guide him. It was normal for him to be slaughtered.
"Give."
Tai Ye took out a black wooden token with a blank front and the word "eight thousand" written in cinnabar on the back.
"Write your name on it. If you lose it, you won't get it replaced."
Fu Xin knew in his heart that the token was a storage of merit points, so he quickly took it in his hand.
"Just find a stone path and keep moving forward without stopping."
"There are countless caves inside with stone gates to seal the ghosts inside. You can enter them after holding a token to identify them."
"The token will be automatically deducted for the time you stay in the cave."
When Mr. Tai said this, he emphasized, "Old man, this is not a brothel. Don't do that thing where you are full of blood and can hold up a pillar to the sky."
What!
Wang Fu said that he couldn't understand it because he was pure.
"Still pretending."
Taiye pointed at Wang Fu's chest, "You handed over all the ghosts, except for one of the spirits. You thought the old man wouldn't be able to tell. You're so young, so be careful to conquer day and night and make ends meet."
He could actually see the existence of the ghost girl.
The Twenty-Eight Lady is a charming spirit.
Wang Fu was in a state of confusion. Who was this Mr. Tai?
The next moment, he felt extremely insulted. He was still a pure Yang body, and his virgin golden body had never been broken for a moment.
"You, how can you accuse someone of innocence out of thin air?"
Wang Fu was filled with sadness and anger, but he finally understood.
There are many ghosts in the Ghost Suppressing Cave, including spirits and miscellaneous monsters, all of which are good at seducing people. There are even disciples with evil intentions who privately teach Taoist Fangzhong techniques and learn from each other to improve.
The old man was suspicious of Wang Fu. He was young and frivolous and couldn't control it. He practiced using ghosts and turned them into subduing female ghosts.
"Master Tai, who do you think I am?
Wang Fu thought that his great reputation could not be stained, so he saluted Mr. Tai heavily, "Please keep it a secret for me."
"Okay, let's go.
Tai Ye waved his hand.
Wang Fu held the token, left the entrance hall, and headed straight to the place where the ghosts were kept.
Although Mr. Tai asked him to choose a stone path, Wang Fu couldn't just take it casually and kept it carefully.
There is a loophole in his words, that is, no matter which stone path you choose, it will eventually lead to the secret room containing the evil ghost's relics.
This is interesting.
Originally, in Wang Fu's concept, the layout of the ghost cave was similar to a dense spider web, radiating from the center to all directions.
If you follow what Tai Ye said, starting from the starting point, it means that you will arrive at the same destination through different paths, and you will end up in the same place.
The question arises, is the structure of the Ghost Suppressing Cave a Möbius strip?
Wang Fu looked back and saw Mr. Tai drinking all his wine, finishing his cigarette, lying on the bamboo chair and falling asleep comfortably.
"How about doing the math?"
Wang Fu took out the turtle shell and began to use his divination techniques.
However, this time, an unprecedented dilemma arises.
The turtle shell didn't respond at all. It wasn't that it couldn't calculate, or that it had too many answers, but it was simply that it couldn't perform the Gui Zang Yi.
Wang Fu was covered in cold sweat. He turned around and saw that Mr. Tai was still concentrating with his eyes closed and did not see any movement.
Unfathomable!
He sighed, don't play tricks, just do as you are told.
If someone asks you to choose any one, then choose whatever you want.
Wang Fu is almost certain that this arrogant Tai Ye is definitely a worldly expert comparable to Ding Zhangdian.
It makes sense when you think about it. How could the person in charge of guarding the Ghost Suppression Cave alone and suppressing all ghosts be an ordinary pension employee?
"I am a member of the Thunder Fire Palace, practicing the inheritance of the Southern Fire Emperor, so I choose... the stone path in the north."
Wang Fu muttered something to himself, pointed towards the north, picked out a certain stone path, and strode forward.
Until Wang Fu's back disappeared into the jungle of stalagmites and pillars, the entrance hall of the Ghost Caves finally fell into silence.
Mr. Tai was snoring and breathing evenly. The ghosts that were handed over to his hands were all swallowed into his nostrils as he breathed in and out.
The evil ghosts were vast and chaotic, drifting with the tide. There were also a few evil ghosts who were not convinced, struggling desperately and shouting, "It is not natural for you to harm the same kind of people. You are destined to never be reincarnated."
"Superborn?"
Tai Ye curled his lips, who cares about that? He sucked in all the ghosts in one gulp.
…
"It's so dark."
Wang Fu looked along the stone path, not daring to be distracted at all. He walked forward along the road and glanced to both sides for a moment. He saw a black hole in the abyss, like a huge mouth that could not wait for him to stop and feed.
"Would you like to light a fire?"
Wang Fu raised his index finger, and a bright light lit up. In an instant, it seemed as if a switch was turned on, and clusters of light appeared around him.
"This is……"
Wang Fu looked at the rock wall above his head, the stone path at his feet, as well as the stalagmites hanging upside down around him, the stone pillars growing like tree branches, etc. They were densely covered with various runes, and there was almost no open space.
What is particularly rare is that there are not only yellow talismans, but also wooden talismans, iron talismans, gold talismans, jade talismans, and all kinds of material carriers.
The sum total of all the talismans that Wang Fu had seen in his life was not as good as the small fortune in front of him.
"Seal ghosts, ward off evil spirits, destroy illusions, suppress delirium..."
Wang Fu was amazed to see so many kinds of talismans, most of which were designed to target ghosts and build the surrounding into a copper and iron wall. The ghost-suppressing cave, with the word "suppressing", the essence was finally presented here in Ye'an.
There are so many talismans, stacked layer by layer, surrounding the area above and below the head, without any flaws.
To be honest, these arrangements are not too much at all.
After all, ghosts are good at transforming into illusions. Once dispersed into air currents, they can pass through houses and houses, become invisible at night, and harm people's homes.
If there is no ghost-sealing talisman to suppress it, even if ghosts are put into the vessel, they will find cracks and seep out.
A bit of bright light in Wang Fu's hand caused these runes to resonate and shine like stars in the dark night.
This scene is enough for all sentient beings to recall Wang Fu.
He felt like he was in a sea of stars, surrounded by dots of runes of light, guiding him on the way forward in the vast darkness.
"What a ghost town."
Wang Fu sighed a few words, walked along the stone path, and stepped on solid ground.
"Wow."
Wang Fu saw an extremely spectacular scene. Looking forward from the soles of his feet, there were densely packed stone gates on both sides, with "evil", "fierce" and "severe" written on them.
There are also some stone gates without words, which means they are empty and have no ghosts inside.
It is clear at a glance which ghost you want to choose as your opponent, just use the token to open the corresponding stone door.
"Well, let's start with the evil ghost first?"
Wang Fu randomly picked a stone door with a bad word on it and opened it with a token.
A gust of fragrant wind blew, and peach petals flew in the pink light, blowing on Wang Fu's face.
"Brother, you are here. Come and sit on my sister's lap. Let's talk."
Wang Fu had no expression on his face, raised his token and swiped it, "Farewell."
A sad and sentimental voice came from behind, "Little brother, you've come, can you bear to waste it?"
What a waste!
Wang Fu looked at the token. Every time the stone door opened or closed, points would be deducted regardless of whether you stayed for a long time or not.
However, how can a man succumb to the evil power of Jingmei?
Wang Fu's heart was as solid as stone, and he resolutely walked out of the stone room. The stone door rumblingly closed behind him.
Interestingly, the stone door is actually a push-pull type, and it also comes with automatic sensing and chargeback functions, which is quite advanced.
From the cracks in the rocks, Du Juan's cry of blood came out.
"Little brother, are you really willing to let me go?"
Wang Fu rolled his eyes, "It's just charming. Who doesn't have one or two of them? How rare is that?"
When I lowered my head and looked at the token again, there were already ten points missing.
Good guy, the starting price is ten points.
Wang Fu shook his head and looked at countless Shimen worried. Before he came here, he never thought that he was opening a blind box!
If he uses Jingmei again in the next round, he will waste another ten points of credit.
Mr. Tai, this old man, is very serious when training people. If you have the ability, don’t confine Jingmei in the stone chamber!
They are all young men, who can withstand such temptation?
Wang Fu used the token to open the second stone chamber with great trepidation.
"Stinky Taoist, let me out, I will kill your whole family."
As soon as Wang Fu heard this, he became energetic, he was a good man, and he clenched his fists with excitement.
In the stone chamber, a strong evil ghost two people tall was standing on the rock wall above his head, hanging upside down and staring at Wang Fu.
Powerful supernatural ghost.
The palace recognized the race of this ghost at a glance, and the other party also became excited.
"Little Taoist priest, you are unlucky. Today I have just broken through to the extremely evil level. The stone gate is about to be replaced by the word 'fierce'."
Wang Fu showed no fear and asked solemnly, "Have you reported this situation?
Report?
The powerful evil ghost was stunned, I reported it to you for nothing, I am going to jail, do you need to be so cooperative?
"Little Taoist priest, you want me to twist you off and use it as a chamber pot."
Chamber pot!
Wang Fu thought to himself, this ghost doesn't poop wild shit and has very high requirements for the quality of life. It seems that he has been influenced by culture.
"I think you've been holding it in for too long and you're very angry. So, I'll stand still and let you pound me."
"You're welcome. I'll hit you as hard as you can, until you're relieved."
"There was a buffet in ancient times. I'm going to treat you to a buffet today. If you don't have enough punches, I'll kick you."
Wang Fu spread his arms and looked like he was lying down and ready to be beaten.
