Pei Jing walked straight towards the red shadow that was looming in the fog.
The wind was getting stronger and stronger. The ghost babies were originally giggling, but suddenly a flash of blood appeared and they suddenly opened their mouths and cried. The sound was small but sharp, like a cat's meow.
Pei Jing walked in and found that the mouths of these ghost babies were empty, as if their tongues had been pulled out.
The baby was crying, and the woman behind them became anxious. She stared at Pei Jing with resentment in her bloodshot eyes, and her hands hidden in her sleeves were ready to move.
Pei Jing was too lazy to waste time with this group of evil spirits. They had no intelligence and were of no use to him.
The Lingchen Sword twitched from its scabbard. The moment the sword came out, a cold snow light pierced through the thick fog, piercing the group of low-level evil spirits and causing them to feel like dying.
The green faces of several female ghosts turned pale, and they screamed shrilly, stretched out their five fingers, and rushed over to kill Pei Jing. However, when their bodies were barely one meter away from him, they were cut into pieces by the snow-white light and shadow. In an instant, the thousands of knives and blades turned into a pool of thick blood, flowing at Pei Jing's feet.
The group of ghost babies subconsciously sensed the danger and cried even louder.
His mouth was opened very wide, revealing half of his pitch-black tongue.
Pei Jing said coldly: "Get lost."
He released his mighty power, and immediately all the evil spirits dared not act recklessly.
The evil wind slowly died down, and a group of ghost babies sobbed, holding hands, and disappeared into the thick fog.
Pei Jing put away his sword and looked thoughtfully at the blood that was slowly sinking into the ground.
The little disciple couldn't see what he was doing here, because the fog was very heavy and he had set up a barrier. So the little disciple sitting by the fire only knew that after he walked away for a minute, the strange laughter and the sound of the wind disappeared.
When Pei Jing came back, the young disciple who had almost lost his soul just now burst into tears and was ecstatic. He regarded him as a savior: "You are so amazing!"
Pei Jing pretended to be embarrassed and said, "No, no, these are just a bunch of unintelligent ghosts. They will run away if you scare them."
The young disciple sighed sincerely: "Thanks to you! Otherwise, I think we would really die here."
Pei Jing felt amused, thinking that you were probably the only one who felt that way.
Strangely enough, after the little ghosts' disturbance, the fog in the forest actually faded. The moonlight was bright and clear, illuminating the road in the forest clearly.
Pei Jing: "Let's go down the mountain while the light is good. I just scared them away. Maybe they will come back."
When the little disciple heard that the ghosts would come back, he was so scared that he stood up from the ground and said repeatedly: "Let's go, let's go. We can't stay here any longer."
Pei Jing thought about it and looked at Chu Junyu: "What do you think?"
Chu Junyu stood up and said, "Let's go."
"Then let's go down the mountain first." Pei Jing actually secretly paid attention to Chu Junyu, but he found that the boy was very calm from beginning to end, almost indifferent. Whether it was the baby's laughter or the head rolling over, it did not cause any change in his expression.
He had a very strange feeling, not that he was brave, but rather that he was indifferent to these things.
On the way down the mountain, Pei Jing asked Chu Junyu: "Were you scared just now?" The result was just a cold look from the young man.
Pei Jing secretly hated that this kid ignored his question again. However, he had been rejected by Chu Junyu so many times that he was almost used to it.
After descending the Yunlan Mountains, we walked along the road in the fields.
At the end, you can see a stone with the words "Mutou Village" written on it. There really is such a village.
There is a dead tree next to the stone, like a distorted human figure.
In the middle of the night, when the crows were silent, the young disciple stood beside Pei Jing in fear, and tried to ask, "Should we change places?"
Pei Jing: "There's only one village within a few miles. You might as well sleep in the fields. If something sticks out from the soil in the middle of the night, don't blame me for not saving you."
Young disciple: “… …” He chose to be as quiet as a chicken.
At this time, most of the villagers were asleep. Pei Jing wanted to find a house to stay at, so he knocked on several doors and called out several times, but no one opened the door.
Boom boom boom.
"Anyone there?"
"Is anyone inside?"
No response.
That's true. It's the middle of the night. Whoever is stupid enough will open the door.
But God was kind to him. When he knocked on the door, an old man woke up and angrily turned on the light, opened the window, and yelled at them: "What are you making so much noise for!"
Pei Jing was delighted and looked over, but was almost blinded by a white light. He blocked it with his sleeves and found that it was the reflection of the mirror on the wall.
The old man was woken up and angrily asked: "What are you doing!"
Pei Jing walked over and said sincerely, "Old man, we are disciples of the Yunlan Sect. This time we followed our brothers and sisters into the mountains to collect Ganoderma lucidum. Unexpectedly, we got separated from them halfway and got lost in the mountains. We just got out now. My friend is exhausted. Can you take us in for one night?"
The old man narrowed his eyes, "Yunlan Sect?"
“Yes, yes.” Pei Jing hurriedly took out a jade pendant from his sleeve, on which was written the word Yunxiao. He lied, “Look, we are indeed from the Yunlan Sect.”
The old man was illiterate, so he believed it when he saw the two words. Although he had a bad temper, he was a good man after all. Pei Jing looked strangely honest. He closed the window again, and then opened the door after a while.
"I don't have any place for you to stay. You can stay in the woodshed for the next three nights. I'll get you a quilt."
"Okay, thank you."
The old man's house is quite big. After entering, there is a small yard with a lot of wood piled in the yard. According to the old man, they are all taken out to sell. The woodshed is at the southernmost end, next to the toilet. It has a bad smell and the ground is damp. But I can't dislike it now.
The old man had gray hair, but was very strong and brought them a heavy quilt.
"It just so happens that I have to go into town to sell wood tomorrow, so I'll take you back while I'm there."
Pei Jing was flattered: "Thank you." Then, he hesitated and thought for a long time before asking: "Old man, are there any children missing around here?"
The old man paused while spreading the quilt, then said, "There are not many women in this village, so where would the children come from?"
"Why?"
The old man said solemnly: "There are many strange things in this remote place. If I were their daughter, I would not want to marry here." The old man seemed unwilling to talk more and warned them: "I will take you in for one night, so be quiet."
Pei Jing didn't ask any more questions and smiled, "Yes, yes."
After the old man left, the young disciple, who had been as quiet as a chicken, finally sat on the quilt and was about to cry: "How can we live in this place? It's dirty, smelly and broken. I might as well sleep in the fields!"
But no one paid any attention to him.
Pei Jing always felt that this place was weird. He walked around the house and searched every corner, but he couldn't figure out what was going on.
He was just about to tell Chu Junyu about the strangeness in his heart, but he found that Chu Junyu had stood in front of the firewood in the corner at some point, looking up with his light-colored eyes.
"What are you looking at?"
Pei Jing walked up, followed Chu Junyu's gaze, and was stunned.
A mirror. There was also a mirror hung on a nail on the wall of the woodshed, reflecting the door lintel.
"Does this family like looking in the mirror so much?" Pei Jing was puzzled and asked, "Do you also think this place is weird? Anyway, I felt uncomfortable as soon as I came in."
Chu Junyu lowered his eyes to hide the coldness in them.
Pei Jing suggested: "Should we go out and see what's wrong?"
Chu Junyu said, "Wait."
Pei Jing was stunned. What are you waiting for
But he was willing to believe Chu Junyu for once.
Then I waited and waited until the next morning.
The little disciple who started crying and making a fuss as soon as he entered the door was actually the one who slept the best among the three.
The old man drove the ox cart loaded with wood into the city, and the three of them sat on the pile of wood.
The scenery in the mountains was fine, and the old man, wearing a bamboo hat, asked, "How was your sleep?"
Pei Jing: "Very good."
What a bullshit! He really believed Chu Junyu's nonsense.
The old man said, "You are really not afraid of death. You should be more careful in the future. In the night of Yunlan Mountain Range, even wild beasts can be a problem for you."
Pei Jing smiled and said nothing.
When they were almost at Yunlan City, Pei Jing asked the young disciple's name: Xu Jing.
Xu Jing's trip to the Yunlan Mountains really elevated his body, mind, and soul. When he returned to the inn, he felt close to his senior brother who had a sullen look on his face.
The senior brother who originally wanted to scold them was so angry that he lost his temper due to Xu Jing's moved and happy look.
The senior brother asked them with a stern face: "Didn't we say that we must come back after nightfall?"
Pei Jing said truthfully: "The fog was too thick and we accidentally got separated from the others. We couldn't find the way in the forest and didn't get down the mountain until midnight. We spent the night in a small village at the foot of the mountain."
The senior brother asked, "Why don't you crush the beads?"
Pei Jing said: "Because there was no dangerous situation."
The senior brother gritted his teeth and said, "Do you know how worried I was last night? I almost reported it to the elders! You just stay in the inn today and don't go anywhere. Reflect on your mistakes. I'll follow you next time!"
Xu Jing said angrily: "Yes."
Pei Jing didn't want to go to pick Ganoderma lucidum, so he was naturally happy. He sneaked out and walked to the street.
After selling the firewood to a carpenter, the old man stood on the street corner and sold herbs dug from the mountains.
Pei Jing found a teahouse nearby and sat down so that he could see his every move.
The tea shop was quiet and not crowded. The proprietress was so idle that she fanned herself to swat mosquitoes. Pei Jing drank a sip of tea and chatted with the proprietress with great interest. He first praised her a few words, which made the proprietress laugh. Then he said sympathetically, "I've been watching that old man for a long time. The sun is so hot, why is he standing there alone selling things? Doesn't he have a son?"
The lady boss thought Pei Jing was just trying to find something to say in order to continue the conversation. She thought the boy was handsome and good at talking, so she happily continued the topic and said, "He is a man we all recognize as unlucky."
Pei Jing was stunned: "What do you mean?"
The proprietress fanned herself with a fan. Her tea shop was located in a busy city, and people came to chat with her every day. Over time, she became a know-it-all.
"This old man's wife died during childbirth of their second son, leaving him alone to raise the two children. Normally, he should have been enjoying his life at this age, but who knew that a sudden disaster would happen? His daughter-in-law caught a cold and died less than a month after giving birth. His eldest son was heartbroken and was not careful when chopping down a tree, so he was crushed to death by the tree. Misfortunes never come singly. Not long after his son and daughter-in-law died, his grandson also died. He died in a field in the middle of the night. The way he died was weird."
Pei Jing thought to himself: It’s really miserable.
He asked, "What about his second son?"
The proprietress raised her fan, shook her head and sighed, "Their family is very unlucky. His second son is afraid that he will never get a wife in this life. He married two families, and the women disappeared when they passed Yunlan Mountain."
Pei Jing was shocked: "Missing?!"
The proprietress had a complicated look on her face and nodded, "It's strange. The ceremonial procession sent the sedan chair to their door with drums and gongs. When they opened the sedan chair, they found that there was no one inside. The key is that the people carrying the sedan chair didn't even realize that the sedan chair was too light. This was the result twice."
“Did anyone find it later?”
The proprietress shook her head and said, "No, what's even more bizarre is that after his second son, whenever a wedding party passes that road, the bride will disappear. Not only the bride, but any woman who passes that road will disappear inexplicably. Now all the girls in Yunlan City avoid it and dare not cross that road."
Pei Jing thought: No wonder the old man said, how can there be children if there are not many women.
So, behind those ghost babies last night were the missing brides? What kind of monster lives in the Yunlan Mountains that eats people based on gender? Or is it a □□
Pei Jing looked past the old man and towards the mountains and forests shrouded in clouds and mist in the distance.
Committed many evil things.
In this case, I'm afraid it can't be allowed to survive.
He had walked around the deepest part of the mountains, but the monster was hiding and wouldn't come out, so he couldn't do anything about it - or lure it out
When Pei Jing returned to the inn, Xu Jing was lying at the table, copying the sect rules honestly, looking dejected. Upon closer inspection, Xu Jing was quite handsome, with fair skin, slightly big eyes, thin eyebrows, and rosy lips.
Pei Jing thought about it for a while and came up with an idea.
He took out a handful of candy and placed it on the desk, "Do you want some?"
Xu Jing was not interested in candy, but since last night, he now worshipped Pei Jing to the extreme. When he saw him coming, he immediately sat up straight, took a candy, and said, "Thank you."
Pei Jing smiled at him, his eyebrows curved, and he was particularly friendly: "Xu Jing, how about I discuss something with you?"
Xu Jing tore open the candy wrapper and asked in confusion: "What's the matter?"
Pei Jing said: "I regret letting that group of ghosts go yesterday. Although they are no match for us, they have caused panic among the people of Yunlan City. I just found out that they even kidnapped women passing by and ate them!"
Xu Jing was so frightened that his face turned pale: "Eat, eat people?"
"Yes!" Pei Jing lied, "But you don't have to be afraid. I beat them to a pulp yesterday, and I can do the same today. But after being scared by me, they probably won't dare to come out even if they see me. We have to lure them out."
Xu Jing recalled his demeanor last night and nodded slowly: "So?"
Pei Jing stuffed another handful of candy into his hand and said, "So tonight, let's sneak out, and you disguise yourself as a woman and walk back to the Yunlan Mountains."
Xu Jing: “… ... ” The candy in his mouth seemed a little bitter.
He asked in a trembling voice: "Can you...can you go find Brother Chu?"
Pei Jing thought: Come on, he asked Chu Junyu to dress up as a woman, Chu Junyu must kill him!
But that's not the way to say it. Pei Jing said slowly, "Chu Junyu... He's not kind enough."
Xu Jing: “… ”
Pei Jing was quite good at fooling people. He said, "Do you still remember the old man who kindly took us in yesterday? Both of his second son's marriages were ruined by ghosts in the mountains."
Xu Jing hesitated: "So pitiful?"
Pei Jing struck while the iron was hot: "Yes! Also, don't you remember what Elder Cao said before we went down the mountain? This time we go down the mountain, we are no longer mortals who are afraid of death. We are disciples of Yunxiao. It is our responsibility to eradicate evil, exterminate evil, and exterminate demons. Tens of thousands of people in Yunlan City are being disturbed by them and are suffering. At this time, shouldn't we stand up?"
Xu Jing felt a surge of passion in his chest when he heard what he said.
Without thinking too much, if this was really a problem that could be solved by the two Qi Refining disciples, why did no one dare to go up among so many cultivators in Yunlan
Don’t think about it, if those evil spirits yesterday really had the courage to eat people, how could they have survived.
Anyway, he was fooled by Pei Jing, and he said in a rush: "You are right! Brother Yiming! We will set off tonight!"
Pei Jing suppressed his smile and looked at him lovingly: "I'll take you to change clothes first."
Although this guy is naive and gullible, he has a kind heart and is not a bad guy.
Sitting in front of the mirror, Xu Jing, who was blindly painted with rouge by Pei Jing, realized it belatedly and asked, "Hey, why don't you dress up as a woman?"
Pei Jing is flexible: "I'm not as good-looking as you."
Xu Jing: “… ... ” So, what you said yesterday was bullshit.
"Is this really okay?"
Xu Jing changed into a woman's dress, a red silk skirt with a white gauze cover, his hair tied up in a high bun, and a pearl hairpin swaying. His face was scribbled with Pei Jing's straight male aesthetic, his mouth was red as blood, and his face was purple and white. At first glance in the middle of the night, he was more terrifying than a ghost.
Pei Jing said: "Trust me, it's very beautiful. I will hide in the dark. Don't be afraid of anything that happens."
Xu Jing was about to cry.
He walked forward after listening to Pei Jing's words. The forest was very foggy, and he was very nervous. He was careful but didn't dare to look closely. He was afraid that a red shadow would suddenly appear behind a tree, or a head would roll down from the tree. After all, he had experienced this kind of thing yesterday. When Pei Jing said to disappear, he really didn't give him any breath.
He was the only one left in the foggy forest. It was silent, and the wind in the wild mountains could give him goose bumps. Various terrifying images kept flashing through his mind, and Xu Jing couldn't calm down even when he recited the meditation formula.
The longer he walked, the more scared he became. He always felt like there was someone following him. A cold and gloomy aura was slowly approaching.
He didn't dare to speed up or do anything unusual.
But that thing is getting closer and closer.
A drop of sweat broke out on his forehead and he closed his eyes, not daring to look back.
The fog was thick, and the shadows of the trees were thick. With every step, he could smell the stench of the thing. He could even feel a strange gaze falling on his neck.
Xu Jing remembered what Pei Jing had said to him and held back his scream.
Don’t go and see. Don’t go and see.
He muttered to himself and walked forward. After taking a step, he was already in a thick fog. Suddenly, Xu Jing was stunned. The thing behind him disappeared, and the cold feeling was gone.
It was like a dream just now. He was scaring himself.
Could it be that the fog also has a hallucinogenic effect
Xu Jing breathed a sigh of relief and raised his sleeve to wipe the sweat off his face, but his hand touched something hard.
Then, his back sank and an extremely cold aura covered his whole body.
There is one more person on my back.
Xu Jing couldn't bear it any longer and screamed, "Ahhhh!"
He shouted so loudly that all the birds in the forest were startled and flew away!
Someone in the woods lit a torch. The fire dispersed the fog and illuminated the entire area.
A man walked out from inside, holding a machete in one hand and a piece of wood in the other. It was the old man from yesterday.
The old man hates people making noises the most. "What are you yelling about? What the hell?"
Then when he saw Xu Jing's makeup, he was completely shocked. Cold sweat broke out instantly and the machete in his hand fell to the ground.
When Xu Jing saw the man, he rushed over and hugged the old man as if he had seen a savior.
The old man stepped back in fear: "—Don't come over here!"
There was a lot of chaos.
Pei Jing secretly helped Xu Jing solve the problem of the wronged soul who wanted to use him as a scapegoat. Hearing the noise, the corners of his mouth twitched.
He looked into the forest in confusion.
The blood color didn't move at all. Why? Was it because the bride was too ugly
... ... If I had known earlier, I would have tricked Chu Junyu into coming here.
The old man was furious: "I told you today that you were not afraid of coming here in the middle of the night, and you deserved it, but you fooled me!"
Pei Jing pulled Xu Jing away and said with a smile: "We just want to repay you for letting us stay overnight. We heard that there is a monster that eats women here, so we came here to slay it."
The old man was furious: "Nonsense! Even if there is one! Can you two little disciples solve it?"
Pei Jing scratched his head awkwardly: “Haha.”
Xu Jing poked his head out from behind him: "No, no, no, old man, he's not that powerful."
The old man's heart ached when he saw Xu Jing's face: "What a great guy! What are you going to do now? Are you still staying here and making trouble?!"
Pei Jing dragged Xu Jing back and said in embarrassment: "Stop making trouble. But we can't go back now. Old man, please be kind and take us in for one night!"
The old man twitched his lips, lifted the axe onto his shoulder, and said, "This is the last night. I won't care if you die here next time."
"Okay, okay."
Just agree to it first and talk later.
While going down the mountain, Pei Jing asked the question in his mind: "Old man, why are you still out cutting trees in the middle of the night?"
The old man was silent for a while, then said, "I'll come out when I'm free in the evening."
Pei Jing was surprised and asked, "You advised us not to go up the mountain at night, aren't you afraid?"
The old man lowered his head and remained silent. Then he slowly said, "The ghosts in this mountain will not harm me."
Pei Jing was shocked: "How can you say that?"
The old man said, "I only discovered this a few years ago. When I was chopping a tree that day, I forgot the time and stayed up until night. Halfway through, a bloody head suddenly fell from the tree. I looked up and saw a female ghost with disheveled hair eating a person. The female ghost saw me but did nothing. After eating, she disappeared. A few times after that, I also saw dirty things in the middle of the night, but they didn't hurt me. Otherwise, why do you think I dared to open the door to you in the middle of the night that day?"
Pei Jing: "You are a good person and have good fortune."
The old man laughed bitterly: "... How can this be considered a blessing? I have been unlucky for most of my life."
There is a kind look on the face of old man Pei Jingguang. He must have done a lot of good things in his life and accumulated a lot of blessings.
But if that was the case, why did the house he lived in give him such a strange feeling
Pei Jing asked directly: "When I was staying in the woodshed that day, I found a mirror hanging on the wall. Why was there a mirror hanging there?"
The old man shook his head and said, "My grandson did it. He is born dumb and can't even speak complete sentences at the age of three. One day he suddenly hugged a bunch of mirrors in the market and refused to let go. He cried and asked us to buy them all back. I guess children like shiny things, so they put mirrors everywhere."
Pei Jing was silent for a while, then asked, "What's going on with your grandson?"
The old man smiled bitterly, recalling the sad things, wiped the corners of his eyes with his calloused hands and said: "My grandson... a lot of things happened to him. His birth date was very unlucky, and his parents died not long after he was born. The fortune teller in the village asked me to go to the temple to get him a longevity lock to keep him safe. I took him out, but we encountered a storm on the way, so my father and I hid in a wild temple. Then we met a monk."
"The monk seemed to be blind, with a white cloth covering his eyes. He sat on a cushion with a golden staff next to him. I didn't know what was wrong with my grandson. He usually didn't get close to people, but when he saw the monk, he came up to him eagerly and sat next to him. I scolded him but he didn't listen, so I just ignored him. Later, the monk must have opened his eyes, saw him, smiled, and then touched my grandson's forehead with his hand. He told me that although my grandson was missing one of his seven souls and six spirits, his fate was good, but his physique was a bit strange and he was easily attracted by evil spirits. Today, I have the chance to help him."
"So he stretched out his fingers and tapped my grandson's eyes. I don't know if he was a god or not, but after that, my grandson seemed to have become smarter, could speak, and had fewer major and minor illnesses."
Pei Jing was really stunned when he heard his description. He asked, "Does the monk you are talking about have a faint golden pattern between his eyebrows, wears a golden and white suit, and has three Buddhist beads on his wrist?"
The old man was shocked: "Yes, yes, yes! How did you know?"
Pei Jing pulled the corner of his lips - this outfit, isn't it Wusheng? The Buddha's Heart of Shari, one of the Five Greatest Men in the World, and a good man known to everyone in Jingtianyuan. Wusheng should have broken through the first lotus realm of Buddhism at that time.
This old man's grandson was enlightened by Wusheng when he was a child, so he should have a smooth life in the future. Why did he die
Pei Jing said: "I met him when I was a child. He was a great monk. Please continue to talk about your grandson."
When the old man heard that he was a great monk, he became sad again: "He is indeed a great monk. At that time, the second son's two marriages failed, and his in-laws were very aggressive. I was too busy and didn't take care of my grandson. Now, I really regret it."
He lowered his head, tears seeping from the corners of his old eyes, and said in a sad voice: "That day when I sent my grandson back to bed, he suddenly grabbed my sleeve and told me that there was a woman in red clothes on the eaves, smiling at him. He was very scared and wanted me to stay and sleep with him. I just thought he was overthinking and ignored him. I had a lot of things to do at the time, so I scolded him, covered him with a quilt and left. As a result... As a result..."
The old man's voice trembled: "The next day, when I went to his house to wake him up, he was gone. Later, someone came running to tell me, and I found that my grandson was planted upside down in the field. When he was dug out, he was dead and his eyeballs were dug out."
Pei Jing's heart sank.
The little boy's eyes had been touched by Wusheng, so what he saw must be real. So... ... there really is a ghost in this house.
Xu Jing's scalp tingled after hearing this: "This is... too weird."
The old man was overwhelmed with sorrow and stopped talking.
Pei Jing comforted him: "Your grandson is blessed with great fortune. Although he has such an ending in this life, he will surely be even richer and healthier in the next life."
The old man smiled bitterly: "I hope so."
I was almost at the doorstep of my home. Under the moonlight, the ordinary house seemed to be faintly oozing with blood.
Pei Jing looked up, a hint of coldness flashed across his eyes. Then he tilted his head and said, "Can you take me to see the house where your grandson used to live?"
The old man asked cautiously: "What are you going to do?"
Pei Jing said: "Please believe me. After all, I am a disciple of the Immortal Sect and I have ways to save my life. I think what your grandson said before he died was not false."
The old man's eyes were still slightly red. He looked at him seriously, then closed his eyes and shook his head. Walking in front, he suddenly looked ten years older. He lit the lamp, held the candle, and slowly walked with Pei Jing to a house that had been sealed for a long time.
The lock is almost covered with dust.
The old man's hand holding the key trembled slightly, but he still opened the door. The room was small, with a big bed, a table, and children's shoes by the window. It was obvious that the room had not been moved since his death.
“It’s right here.”
Pei Jing indeed found a mirror on the wall.
Xu Jing's scalp went numb as soon as he entered here. He didn't look like a cultivator at all. He hugged Pei Jing's arm and said, "What do you want to do?"
Pei Jing sensed an aura here that made him feel uncomfortable, and thought to himself, he must kill that thing today.
He said to the old man, "Let me stay here for one night. I can avenge your grandson."
Xu Jing: "Are you crazy?"
The old man looked incredulous, smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Don't do that. If you make any mistakes here, I will have a guilty conscience until I die."
Pei Jing said: "No."
He smiled slightly, and the boyish temperament that had always been a bit reckless suddenly became calm and powerful, which made people involuntarily convinced.
The old man stared at him for a long time, and talked for a long time, but he couldn't win the argument. He could only sigh and leave with the lantern.
Xu Jing hesitated for a long time, and finally put on a brave face: "Since we are both slaying demons, I can't retreat. I will go with you. Let's die. Yunxiao disciples are no longer afraid."
Then he was kicked out by Pei Jing, "With your courage and ability, you are just making trouble. Go back to the woodshed and sleep."
Xu Jing was about to cry again: "I'm so scared!"
Pei Jing curled his lips: "Isn't the bead on the sword tassel still there? This thing is not only a signal, but also contains the true energy of our Yunxiao Jindan elders. The moment it is crushed, it can destroy all the ghosts around you. It is not a problem to protect you for a night."
Xu Jing was stunned: "Is there such a thing?"
"That's right, get out of here!"
Xu Jing rolled away, looking back every few steps, and said, "Take good care of yourself."
Pei Jing didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Go away."
When you were not around, I played with those ghosts.
After Xu Jing left and closed the door, he was the only one left in the room. The cold moonlight shone in through the window and fell on the child's shoes in front of the window.
Pei Jing said softly: "The old man's grandson was enlightened by Wusheng about his fate, so it's not just his eyes that are psychic, he must also know how to beware of ghosts. Although he may not be clear about it, he will do it subconsciously. So... mirror."
He turned around and, as expected, saw a mirror in the direction of the window.
"There are mirrors on the windows, doors, and corresponding walls. Is it to prevent ghosts from coming in?"
"The woman in red is on the eaves."
Pei Jing's luck floated in the air, his robes fluttered, and his fierce momentum instantly spread. He sat on the eaves, then looked up and saw clearly. There was also a mirror attached to the roof.
It's just this mirror...
It was smashed to pieces.
