Everything seemed so peaceful, just like a pool of calm water in an ancient well. Our arrival did not attract the attention of Taoist Yang Chen, nor did it cause the slightest ripple.
The ** banyan tree was filled with ghostly aura and looked eerie.
I know that those ghosts sent out by Taoist Yang Chen to look for the Emperor Grass must have lived in that banyan tree before.
Normal banyan tree leaves are broad, but this banyan tree's leaves are rolled up, like a series of small houses.
Soon, we arrived in front of the cave.
Master Chu whispered to us, "Wait a minute, don't hold back, go into the cave and attack the Taoist Yang Chen. He is not a good person, so we don't need to talk about morality."
Everyone had no objection and then they all took out their magical weapons.
Joan used a small gourd with a bagua pattern on it.
Master Chu held a few soul nails in his hand, which were very lethal to ghosts.
Xiao Junmin used a flute, but it was only about a foot long and had few holes, making it look more like a whistle.
Master Jiang still uses his ground grid.
Lou Xiaoman used a bronze mirror with a phoenix pattern on it. When Lou Xiaoman took out the bronze mirror, Master Chu and others stared at it. There was envy in their eyes.
"Liang Yi Mirror! Wow, Master Lou, your magic weapon is extraordinary!"
Xiao Junmin said approvingly.
Lou Xiaoman said softly, "Master Xiao, this is serious! Although the Liangyi Mirror is powerful, it is not a great ghost-exorcising tool. I found it in a tomb."
Lou Xiaoman did not explain the extra words.
As for the rest of us, the most distinctive one was the middle-aged man named Wu Lei. He was holding a ruler, which had a strong Yang energy.
Most of the others used peach wood swords.
Seeing that everyone was ready, Master Chu waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Since everyone is ready, let's go in. Let's try to kill that scourge as soon as possible and get rid of the harm for the people."
Then, our group of people circulated the energy of Yin De, stepped on the Gang Steps, and rushed into the cave.
The cave was very deep and a little damp, and there was indeed a fire inside.
Because we know that Taoist Yang Chen is no simple person, none of us dare to be careless.
But when we entered the cave, deep inside, we couldn't find any trace of Taoist Yang Chen.
There was only a fire burning in the cave, with smoke billowing.
"Damn it! Where did that Taoist Yang Chen go?"
Xiao Junmin's temper flared up immediately. His narrowed eyes were filled with coldness, and his face became vicious, as if he wanted to eat someone.
Master Chu shook his head and said, "I don't know, could it be that he got the news in advance and ran away?!"
I stood not far away and reminded him, "Let's ask that long-necked ghost first!"
"Yes, ask the long-necked ghost, maybe that little ghost knows where the Taoist Yang Chen has gone!"
Master Qi stood aside and echoed.
Long Yuanda urged his apprentice, Fatty Li, "Apprentice, take out your soul-binding bead and ask the long-necked ghost inside."
Fatty Li nodded and took out the "Soul-Binding Bead" from his cloth bag.
But when he looked inside the Soul-Binding Orb, he found that the long-necked ghost was gone.
"The long-necked ghost is gone!"
"This, this... How could this happen? This shouldn't happen. I put him into the Soul Binding Orb before!"
And it was at this time that Lou Xiaoman
This sentence reminds us.
Lou Xiaoman looked at the pile of firewood that was crackling and said, "Could it be that we have been tricked?"
Lou Xiaoman's words made Master Chu immediately realize that something was wrong.
Master Chu hurriedly said, "Oh no, we might have fallen into a trap! Damn it, that long-necked ghost must be the bait that Taoist Yang Chen arranged on the winding mountain road. No, we have to get out of this cave quickly, otherwise it will be too late!"
Just when we were about to rush towards the entrance of the cave, the long-necked ghost appeared at the other side of the cave.
He smiled sinisterly and said, "Are you scared now? But it's too late. You just stay in this cave. When my master swallows the Rejuvenation Pill and his soul and body merge together, you will die!"
"I really fell into a trap!"
I muttered something.
But at this time, loud "boom, boom" sounds came from the entrance of the cave.
Then the entire cave began to shake.
Gravel began to fall from the top of the cave with a "clattering" sound.
An irregular stone as big as a basketball fell right above my head.
If Master Jiang next to me hadn’t pulled me back, my head would have probably been smashed.
"Bang!"
A large rock fell on the other side of the cave, blocking the entrance perfectly.
Everyone was stunned, our exit was gone!
I leaned against the stone wall and shone the flashlight in my hand toward the entrance of the cave.
Even if the huge stone does not weigh tens of thousands of pounds, it must weigh several thousand pounds. We cannot move it with our strength alone. Although we are all ghost-catching Taoist priests, apart from catching ghosts, we are actually not much different from ordinary people.
The rocks in the cave finally stopped falling, and the pile of firewood was crushed by the rubble.
The cave was now pitch black. Apart from the beams of a few flashlights, nothing else could be seen.
The voice of the long-necked ghost drifted into the cave.
It laughed strangely, "Haha... You stinking Taoists are so self-righteous. Do you think you can defeat my master with your numbers? I tell you, that is wishful thinking. My master's Rejuvenation Pill is about to be completed. You just wait to die!"
"But before that, I will let you enjoy yourself in this cave!"
The long-necked ghost's voice then disappeared.
But then, the temperature inside the cave suddenly dropped, giving people the feeling of falling into an ice cellar.
Master Jiang's ghost eyes are always open.
He warned us, "Oh no! A lot of ghosts have come into the cave!"
Are there ghosts in the cave
How come I can't see it? You know, my eyes are covered with crow's tears. And I think many people in the cave also have crow's tears on their eyes.
At this time, Long Yuanda began to make seals with his hands on his chest and muttered to himself.
"Master is above, and I am your disciple below. God has commanded me to communicate with spirits and open the gates of heaven. The nine orifices will be bright, and the sun and moon of heaven and earth will illuminate my body. Open the gates quickly... ... Hurry and obey the command!"
Then a green light appeared between Long Yuanda’s eyebrows, and his third eye opened instantly.
After opening the Heavenly Eye, Long Yuanda's vision became clear. He looked around and then said solemnly, "It's not good. Many ghosts are pouring into this cave, and there is a ghost array inside the cave. Even if ordinary Taoists smear crow tears on their eyes, it is difficult to see the ghosts in the cave!"
Long Yuanda's words shocked everyone around him.
If you can't see ghosts with your eyes, you can only rely on perception.
How could Fu defeat the ghosts that kept pouring in? And from what Master Jiang said, there were obviously quite a lot of them.
The current situation is extremely critical.
"Back off! They've started attacking!"
Long Yuanda's voice was very anxious.
We obeyed his words and started to move back, our bodies moving closer together.
The magic weapons in our hands were shining with golden light under the urging of the Yin De Qi. But even so, it would be extremely difficult for us to kill those erratic ghosts.
The main thing is that I can’t see it!
Master Chu asked solemnly, "Fellow Daoist Longxu, how many ghosts have poured into the cave now?"
Long Yuanda said in a deep voice: "There are at least dozens of them, and their number is still increasing. However, the good thing is that they are all small ghosts, and there are no fierce or evil ghosts."
Master Chu was also very anxious.
He was the one who had called these people for this operation. The current situation was so critical that if something went wrong, he would be held solely responsible.
"Asshole! It seems that Taoist Yang Chen wants to kill us!"
Having said that, Master Chu didn't care anymore. He directly took out a stack of dozens of ghost-chasing talismans from his arms.
Then he said to us in a deep voice: "My fellow Taoists, the situation is critical now. Since so many ghosts have appeared, we should stop hiding our abilities. Use the ghost-chasing talismans you have. I don't believe that those little ghosts can still hurt us under such a dense attack of ghost-chasing talismans!"
Master Chu's idea was right. After all, the space in the cave was limited. If the exorcist talismans were activated collectively, it would not be difficult to deal with those little ghosts.
Then each of us took out most of the exorcism charms we had. I was probably the one with the least exorcism charms because I was catching ghosts and didn't have much time to draw them.
I only have a dozen or so exorcist talismans in my hand now. The ones I bought from the ghost market have been almost used up, and the one Jiang Jiuzhen left for me has also been used up.
"Okay, in that case, let's attack in batches using talismans."
"Fellow Daoist Longxu, tell me the direction and we'll attack!"
Long Yuanda nodded and said, "Okay!"
At this time, the temperature in the cave has become increasingly colder as the ghosts continue to join in. I feel my feet are numb from the cold.
"On the right hand side, at one o'clock, there are a dozen ghosts approaching. They are the ones in front, attack them first!"
"good!"
Afterwards, Master Chu and two middle-aged Taoist priests, Li Jianhua and Du Ting, threw out the ghost-exorcising talismans in their hands together.
Driven by the talisman, the flying ghost-exorcising talismans instantly caught fire.
There were as many as fifty or sixty ghost-exorcising talismans, which looked like fiery red butterflies flying in the air.
Although I don't know where those ghosts are, the power generated by so many talismans attacking together is not small.
"Ahh..."
But in an instant, terrible screams were heard from inside the cave.
Waves of ghostly howlings stimulated my eardrums. It felt like I was not in a cave, but in a hell full of evil spirits.
However, although we launched the talisman attack according to Long Yuanda's instructions, we still had difficulty grasping the exact location of those ghosts. So even though the talismans were densely packed, the number of ghosts that were actually killed was only about four or five.
Soon, Long Yuanda exclaimed again: "There is another group of ghosts rushing over from the front. There are quite a lot of them. Quickly launch the second batch of talisman attacks!"
