"Seven **?"
There was a slight tremor in my voice.
Master Jiang nodded and said, "It is very likely that there are seven ghosts. Your current Taoism is much stronger than mine, so your perception is naturally stronger than mine. Although my ghost eyes can also sense, the effect of perception is not very ideal!"
After a brief conversation with Master Jiang, I decided to go directly into the family's courtyard.
But before Master Jiang and I entered the courtyard, I noticed a man in his thirties slowly walking out of the adobe house. He had a tough look and a sallow complexion.
He was pushing a wheelchair, in which sat a pretty young woman.
However, the woman's eyesight was stiff and she stared at everything, making it obvious that she was blind.
Before Master Jiang and I entered the courtyard, the man had already noticed us.
But there was no panic on the man's face. He looked calm and indifferent.
Master Jiang looked at me and I nodded to him.
Then the two of us walked into the yard together.
Seeing us enter the yard, the man slowly pushed the wheelchair to the side.
He protected the beautiful but blind woman behind him, and then the man stared coldly at me and Master Jiang. He didn't say anything, but his expression was full of hostility.
The woman seemed to sense something. She held the man's right hand tightly and said softly, "Brother, what's wrong? Aren't we going out to get some fresh air? Why did you stop?"
Although the man had a cold look, when he turned around, I found that he had tenderness in his eyes towards the woman.
He gently patted the woman's fair hand and said softly, "Sister, please stay here for a while. I have something to go out for. Just wait for me here for a while!!"
The woman didn't think much about it. She smiled and said, "Okay, brother, go ahead. I'll wait for you!"
The man gently let go of the woman's hand and walked towards me and Master Jiang with a calm expression.
When he came up to us, he looked at the cloth bags on us, and then he lowered his voice and said, "Let's go, I know you are here to find me, I knew this day would come! But please don't disturb my sister!"
When he talked about his sister his eyes suddenly became sharp.
After saying that, before we could say anything, the man quickly walked out of the yard.
Master Jiang and I were a little caught off guard by the man's attitude, but we both followed him anyway.
There is a forest about two hundred meters away from the yard.
The man stopped in an open space in the woods.
He turned around slowly and I saw annoyance in his eyes.
Although the woods here are very close to the town, they are relatively remote and there are not many people nearby.
Master Jiang said directly, "I guess you know why we are here?"
The man said nothing, but from his expression, he seemed to admit it.
Master Jiang continued, "How despicable it is for a grown man like you to drive ghosts to harm people. Since you brought us here, let's end it all! You raised the ghosts, and you also harmed the people. You really hurt people a lot!"
The man did not argue with Master Jiang.
He admitted, "Yes, I admit that I raised those beasts, and I used them to kill many people. Since you Taoists have found this place today, I, Feng Yi, have nothing to say. But..."
explain
When he said this, the man's eyes suddenly turned cold.
"But what?"
I frowned and asked coldly.
The man stared at Master Jiang and me with a cold gaze, and said sternly: "But I won't let you kill those ghosts, because I need them. So since you two are here today, don't leave!"
As he spoke, the man took out a small flag from his arms.
The small flag was black with a striking skull pattern on it.
Near the skull pattern, there are some runes that look very ancient.
"What do you want to do?"
I could sense the hostility in the man, and it seemed like he wanted to fight us to the death.
He said, "I don't want to do anything! I just want to protect myself and my blind sister. I won't allow anyone to hurt her, even if it means sacrificing my own life."
Then the man pointed to a small mound of earth in the woods behind him and said to us, "Do you two see that mound? That is the grave of a Taoist priest. He came to our town because he found out that I was raising ghosts to harm people. But so what? He came, but he didn't leave here alive!"
"You mean? You killed a Taoist priest?"
Master Jiang's expression suddenly changed.
We in the Taoist profession cannot tolerate the behavior of ghost raisers harming Taoists.
Taoist priests are supposed to catch ghosts and monsters to keep the peace, but now someone is attacking Taoist priests. This made Master Jiang and I angry.
The man suddenly laughed and said, "Yes, I did kill the stinky Taoist priest, but he deserved to die. This matter had nothing to do with him, but he came out to make trouble. So I must kill him!"
Damn, this guy has such a big tone.
I yelled angrily, "Bullshit! You are a troublemaker and you still have the nerve to say that! I think your conscience has been eaten by a dog!"
But after the man sneered, he didn't care about me and Master Jiang.
He directly stuck the small black flag in his hand into the ground. Then, he muttered something.
I discovered that what he was chanting was actually a spell, but that spell was not the one we Taoists use, but a ghost spell.
As he chanted the curse, the inside of the small black flag slowly turned red, and then drops of blood flowed out of the flag. As the blood spread, the surrounding air suddenly became eerie and terrifying.
Immediately afterwards, before Master Jiang and I could react, ghosts flew out from the blood-red flags.
Those ghosts were extremely ugly, and each one had a fierce look. And I roughly counted them, and there were exactly seven of them.
It seems that the seven ghosts are the ** raised by the man.
But the seven little ghosts are not scary enough for Master Jiang and me.
We all subconsciously showed our own magic weapons.
Mine is a peach wood sword.
Master Jiang took out his ghost-catching tool, the "ground net."
At the same time, we all held a few talismans to drive away ghosts in our hands.
"Humph, kid, you are too naive! We are not ordinary Taoist priests. Let alone these little ghosts, even if there are more of them, they are no match for us!"
Master Jiang said in a cold voice, and prepared to activate the talisman to kill the ghosts floating in the air.
But the man opposite said to me and Master Jiang in a deep voice, "You stinking Taoists all think you are so smart, but don't think that you can deal with these seven of my men just because you have some Taoist skills.
*. ”
"They'll tear you both to pieces!"
After that, the man ordered the seven little ghosts, "Go, help me kill these two!"
After the seven little ghosts listened to the man's instructions, their ghostly aura increased greatly.
With ferocious eyes, they pounced towards the direction where Master Jiang and I were.
I stepped on the Seven Stars Step, and the good energy in my body turned into warm currents, gathering on the peach wood sword. The golden light on the peach wood sword was bright.
As soon as I got close, I swung my peach wood sword towards a ghost.
However, the ghost reacted quickly and dodged, and was not hit by the peach wood sword.
A strange and cold laugh came out of its mouth and it pounced towards me.
I recited the words "exorcism talisman" and then threw one out.
The exorcist talisman burned in the air and hit the little ghost.
But what I didn't expect was that the little ghost actually spat out a piece of dark blue crystal. The thing was icy and exploded as soon as it touched the burning talisman. At the same time, the talisman also turned into ashes.
"how so?"
I was shocked for a moment.
It was similar on Master Jiang's side not far away. The "ground net" in his hand was just thrown out when it was blown away by the dark blue crystals spit out by the two little ghosts.
It looks like there is some damage on the top of the ground grid.
While Master Jiang was retracting the ground net, four little ghosts rushed up and surrounded Master Jiang.
Master Jiang had obviously never encountered such a situation before. He was caught off guard and a deep cut was made on his arm by a little ghost.
The little devil had white, prickly teeth and he swallowed a piece of meat from Master Jiang's arm directly into his stomach, looking as if he was enjoying it.
I also found that Master Jiang's arm, which was bitten by the little ghost, was slowly turning black, as if it was a sign of poisoning.
Master Jiang quickly took out a hemostatic talisman from his bag, chanted a spell and stuck it on his arm, which stopped the bleeding. However, the black on his arm was slowly spreading as Master Jiang continued to use the talisman to resist the ghost.
"Master Jiang, are you okay?"
I asked loudly.
Master Jiang said solemnly, "I don't know what comes out of the mouths of these little ghosts. They have a very destructive effect on the runes on the talismans. The runes will explode when they touch them. The talismans have no effect on them at all!"
"Moreover, there is poison in their mouths. Although that poison is not ghost poison, it is also very special! My injured arm is starting to go numb!"
When Master Jiang said these words, his voice was hoarse and there was a sense of urgency in his voice.
When I saw Master Jiang was injured, I quickly stepped on the Seven Star Steps to help him. But unexpectedly, the remaining three little ghosts blocked my way and hovered in front of me.
"Damn Taoist priest, go to hell!"
A monster covered in black energy, yelling and with a sinister look in its eyes, rushed towards me first.
The other two little ghosts who blocked the way did not give way at all, and their ghostly aura was overwhelming.
The three little ghosts quickly surrounded me.
The talisman is ineffective, so we can only use the peach wood sword to resist.
But those little ghosts seemed to have eyes all over their bodies, and they were able to dodge quickly when my peach wood sword chopped down.
Damn it, what on earth is going on? They are just seven insignificant little ghosts, but they can show such great power, it is really shocking.
