When the horse-faced demon was still twenty or thirty feet away from the temple, he suddenly stopped.
"Senior Ma Mian, the ghost we have to deal with is in this temple, right?" Shen Luo also stopped, looked at the temple not far away, and asked.
The Horse-Faced Soul-Catching Demon did not turn around or speak, but just nodded.
"Then why don't you leave? Could it be that the ghosts in this temple are very troublesome?" Although Shen Luo said this, he was not very worried in his heart.
According to previous observations at Zhenhuai Bridge, although the current cultivation level of the Soul-Catching Horse-Faced Demon cannot be compared with that of a thousand years later, he has at least reached the late stage of Bigu. As for whether he has reached the Soul-Condensing Stage, he is still unable to judge. In addition, as a ghost messenger, he is particularly good at subduing ghosts. As long as the ghosts in this temple have not reached the Soul-Condensing Stage, there should be no problem.
"It's just a ghost in the Qigong period. It's just that it has developed some intelligence and is good at hiding. As soon as it sensed me approaching, it immediately avoided me. I also have a headache, so I asked you to help." The Soul-Catching Horse-Faced Ghost turned around and looked at Shen Luo meaningfully.
"Hey! Do you want me to lure it out? It may not be powerful for you, but it is different for me. I am only in the Qi Refining Stage!" Shen Luo couldn't help but shouted.
"Why are you so anxious before I finish my words! Listen, you go into the temple first and lure the ghost out. When it gets close to you, activate this talisman, and it will be temporarily trapped. I will show up immediately and kill it." The Soul-Catching Horse rolled his eyes, took out a black talisman from his arms and handed it over.
There was a spider web-like pattern engraved on the talisman, emitting a faint fluctuation of magical power.
"Aren't you still using me as bait? What if this talisman doesn't work by then? Or if the ghost is not trapped and you are slow to show up, I'll be in danger then! Otherwise, can you give me something else to defend myself?" Shen Luo took the black talisman and began to mutter.
"Don't think that I'm a ghost and don't know the situation in the mortal world. You have accepted the mission from the government, right? A ghost in the Qigong period, so you must be rewarded! There is a saying in the mortal world that wealth and honor are sought in danger. Since you want the reward, how can you not take some risks?" The Horse-Faced Soul Catcher snorted and said unhappily.
"Okay, then you have to act quickly!" Seeing this, Shen Luo had no choice but to agree.
"Don't worry." After the Horse-Faced Soul-Catcher said this, his figure flashed and disappeared like blending into the air.
Shen Luo took a deep breath, stuck a ghost-chasing talisman on his chest, then held the black talisman tightly in one hand, took out the Ghost Howling Ring with the other hand and held it in front of him before stepping forward.
This distance seemed not long, but he felt as if he had walked through thousands of mountains and rivers. He stopped every three steps and rested every five steps, looking around from time to time. The closer he got to the temple gate, the more nervous he became, for fear that the ghost would suddenly appear and he would not have time to react, and the Horse-Faced Ghost would not have time to show up.
This is a real ghost in the Qi Refining stage, which is different from the female ghost in the peak of the Qi Refining stage that he dealt with not long ago. After all, once a ghost enters the Qi Refining stage, its strength will undergo a complete transformation compared to that of the Qi Refining stage. If he is not careful, he will be in trouble.
And judging from the amount of the reward, this ghost is most likely not just as simple as the initial stage of fasting, otherwise the Lin and Du families would not have sent out more than a dozen people and suffered heavy casualties. He doesn't think that he can stop the opponent with just his small thunder talisman and ghost howling ring.
