After hearing what Zhu Xinglong said, Yu Jianfeng's face darkened and he sneered.
He cursed Zhu Xinglong, "Zhu Xinglong, you fool, what kind of magic potion did that old woman Magu give you that you actually spoke for her? That old woman only cares about her own daughter and doesn't care about us at all. We ghost officials have been in the Gongyang Pavilion for so many years, what benefits have we gained?"
"She has mastered the Taoist magic, but she didn't teach us any of it. We still have to work for her. Do you think this is fair? In the Support Pavilion, she is the Pavilion Master who orders us around. You know, we are all men and we all have dignity. Why should she, a woman, be the Pavilion Master? "
Yu Jianfeng's words triggered a chain reaction. The ghost officials around him who had lived in the Gongyang Pavilion once expressed their dissatisfaction with Magu and their complaints about the Gongyang Pavilion's territory.
As for Magu, she stood there quietly, with a calm expression, as if those harsh words had nothing to do with her.
For a moment, under Yu Jianfeng's instigation, the ghost officials in the Offering Pavilion became all excited.
Even the ghost officials standing behind Magu in the Support Pavilion had unhappy expressions. However, the ghost officials behind Magu did not resist, because most of them had swallowed the evil corruption pill. In order to save their own lives, even if they had resentment towards Magu, they did not dare to speak.
I really didn't expect that Magu, who seemed to be a peaceful person, actually had such a bad reputation in the Gongyang Pavilion. In the past, those ghost officials dared to be angry but dared not speak out, but now they all expressed their feelings.
However, even if Magu did not treat the ghost officials of the Gongyang Pavilion well, they would not rebel against the Gongyang Pavilion or go against the underworld.
"Magu, Lord Zuo has already promised us that as long as we kill you and help him seize the Gongyang Pavilion, we will get your Taoist skills and even get a higher position in the Gongyang Pavilion."
"So, Magu, you must die today! The Gongyang Pavilion will definitely fall into our hands."
The ghost officials behind Yu Jianfeng and the other two were all very irritable under the instigation of Yu Jianfeng's words. They all had angry faces, and their eyes staring at Magu were full of resentment and anger.
Su Xiaoshan, the pale-faced ghost official standing next to Yu Jianfeng, said to Yu Jianfeng in a cold voice: "Okay, Yu Jianfeng, there is no point in saying more. Let Magu bear the wrath of us ghost officials!"
Su Xiaoshan licked the corner of his mouth and said to Magu jokingly: "I really want to know, Master Magu, is your heart red or black, or any other color? So, after defeating you, I will dig out your heart, take a look, and taste it!"
Damn, I didn’t expect that Su Xiaoshan looks fair but is actually a guy with heavy taste.
On the contrary, the ghost official Lin Chengming standing next to Yu Jianfeng and Su Xiaoshan was very calm. In his deep eyes, there was a cunning light flashing, which occasionally wandered over the bodies of us.
I thought, it seems that Zuo Weiran sent these people here to find out the truth. Even if Zhang Rong was in the offering pavilion, the cautious Zuo Weiran still did not show up. I am afraid that Zuo Weiran also knows that Magu is not easy to provoke, and he is afraid of losing his life here.
Soon, the ghost energy of the ghost officials behind Yu Jianfeng and others rose. They stared with their eyes wide open, holding long knives or other ghost weapons.
"Brothers, we killed the old woman Magu today. Lord Zuo will not treat us unfairly. Don't be afraid. They are just a few in number. It will be easy for us to kill them."
"Come on, everyone, listen to my orders, charge! ... Charge into the Offering Pavilion and kill Magu!"
Yu Jianfeng picked up a long whip-like underworld weapon in his hand.
Rushing towards us.
Just as I was about to take a step forward, Magu grabbed my arm.
She said in a deep voice: "Yang Tianyi, don't go over there yet, leave these people to my 'death squad'!"
"Death warriors?"
I muttered in confusion.
Magu looked at me and explained, "Those people wearing masks are my death warriors. They only have bodies, but their souls are gone. They only obey our orders."
After a brief explanation, Magu ordered the dozen or so death warriors in a solemn voice, "Go, death warriors, kill all these rebels!"
After hearing Magu's order, those warriors wearing red clothes and masks rushed out from the door of the offering pavilion with huge axes in hand.
At this time, Yu Jianfeng and his gang had already rushed up.
Soon, the two groups started fighting.
Waves of dark energy surged through their bodies.
The infernal objects collided with each other, making a sound like metal colliding, and the sparks released were very bright.
Originally, I thought that Yu Jianfeng's ghost officials were numerous, and it would be easy for them to deal with a dozen masked warriors.
After all, those "masked warriors" are not living people, and their flexibility and thinking ability are not very strong.
But it was beyond my expectation that after the first confrontation, Yu Jianfeng's gang was defeated and each of the ghost officials was in a very miserable state.
A fat ghost official had the long sword in his hand chopped off by a huge axe when a masked assassin rushed in front of him.
The ghost official was caught off guard and was split in half by the axe. His body, which was originally standing, collapsed in an instant. Bright red blood spurted out of his blood vessels.
The man's brain was also split in half, and the pulp and the surging blood mixed together, looking a bit like red fermented tofu.
One of the ghost officials was someone I recognized. It was actually "Quick Hand" Wang Rui who had greeted me in the Reward and Punishment Hall.
Wang Rui's hands must have been trained in magic. When fighting with the masked assassin, he was able to withstand the masked assassin's giant axe. Moreover, his palms changed very quickly, and when the dark energy surged, his palms would leave a series of phantoms.
However, even so, when Wang Rui was dealing with a masked assassin, he was hit on the back of his hand by an assassin behind him with an axe. He dodged quickly, but a deep blood mark was still left on his back.
Bright red blood gushed out from Wang Rui's back.
Wang Rui was injured and wanted to get rid of the entanglement with the masked assassins. Unfortunately, although he rushed a few steps away and avoided a masked assassin, he collided head-on with a ghost official.
The ghost official thought that the masked assassin was going to attack him, so he released a gray-white dark energy, which hit Wang Rui's back. The dark energy directly broke Wang Rui's spine.
Wang Rui, whose spine was broken, was crawling on the ground with blood gushing out of his mouth.
It was too chaotic! No ghost officials came to rescue Wang Rui. Those ghost officials were still holding on, fighting and dodging the masked warriors. Some of them were even scared and wanted to escape.
A team of several hundred people was broken up by a dozen masked warriors.
Wang Rui fell in the middle and was trampled to death. He was also a captain of the ghost officials in the Reward and Punishment Hall. One can imagine how dangerous the situation of the other weak ghost officials was.
The fighting scene was extremely brutal.
The screams never ceased to ring out!
A few ghost officials were cunning and rushed towards the first floor of the Pavilion, trying to bypass those masked assassins, but unfortunately, just as they approached the entrance of the Pavilion,
Suddenly, roots appeared.
Those roots bound their legs, making it difficult to break free. Even if the ghost officials cut off the roots, more roots would emerge. Soon, the ghost officials were submerged in the roots.
I noticed that a ghost official had just cut off a few roots and pulled one of his legs out. But he didn't expect that the broken roots would stab him, penetrate his buttocks, and come out of his mouth.
A piece of intestine was pushed out of his mouth.
The man stared in disbelief. After a moment, the blood kept flowing and he died.
However, although those masked warriors are very powerful, as the saying goes, a good tiger cannot fight against a pack of wolves.
Soon, a masked warrior fell to the ground, his body in pieces. His legs were chopped off by an unknown ghost official. But even with only his upper body left, the masked warrior was still desperately swinging the giant axe in his hand.
Unfortunately, one of the ghost officials didn't notice the masked assassin, and his legs were chopped off. The ghost official howled in pain, and then he fell to the ground.
His legs were right next to his body.
As long as the ghost official was alive, the masked assassin with a broken leg had no intention of letting him go.
The ghost official's head was quickly chopped off from the neck by the huge axe in the hands of the masked assassin.
"Retreat! Retreat!..."
Yu Jianfeng shouted in horror.
He originally thought that the dozen or so strange guys in front of him, no matter how big they were, would not be able to withstand the siege of so many ghost officials. But he was wrong, those masked warriors had no souls at all and only obeyed Magu's orders.
The order that Magu gave to the masked warriors was to kill all those ghost officials!
At Yu Jianfeng's terrified shout, the ghost officials retreated one after another.
However, when they retreated, several ghost officials were still hit and died tragically on the spot.
Soon, those ghost officials retreated several hundred meters away.
And on the ground, except for the corpses of the three masked warriors, the rest were the corpses of those ghost officials.
"Come back, don't chase me!"
Magu raised her voice and gave the order.
But just as those masked warriors were about to return to the offering pavilion, pieces of black things appeared behind them. Those black things were black insects, with bodies as long as fingers and covered with rows of legs.
A swarm of black insects swarmed towards the remaining masked warriors at an extremely fast speed.
When I saw those bugs, I recognized them at first sight.
I exclaimed, "It's a millipede! A millipede that feeds on flesh and blood!"
Magu controlled the masked warriors to return quickly, but the warriors were huge and without the urging of the dark energy, their movements were very clumsy. Within three or two minutes, the two masked warriors at the back fell to the ground with two "thumps".
If you look at the feet of the masked assassin, you will find that what are stuck on his feet are actually millipedes.
The millipedes continued to crawl on their thighs, and the remaining soles of the two dead men's feet revealed white bones, even the joints were clearly visible.
"Oh my god, that... that bug, eats meat!!!"
Zhu Xinglong cried out in horror.
Magu glared at Zhu Xinglong coldly and shouted, "Shut up! If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb!"
I noticed that a few hundred meters away, Lin Chengming was constantly directing several ghost officials to dump millipedes out of bamboo baskets. A lot of yellow powder was scattered in front of them.
That yellow powder should be used to drive away millipedes.
