Now that the ghost repair's hiding place has been determined, several people began to plan how to catch all those evildoers.
I heard Tao Xian say that there were about a dozen ghost cultivators who went to the mountain temple to kidnap the troupe, and it is unknown how many people were huddled in Baimajian Mountain.
The leaders of the four doors gathered at a table to discuss.
Zhou Beinan took the lead: "Naturally, it is surrounded on all sides and attacked directly."
Qu Chi shook his head: "It's not right. We don't know how many ghost cultivators are hidden in it, and we rushed in. If we encounter a large and powerful enemy, I'll have no problem waiting for the whole body to retreat. What should these disciples do?"
"Then what can we do?" Zhou Beinan said, "First encircle the white horse's tip, send a letter to the four doors, and ask them to send more people to encircle and suppress it?"
Wen Xuechen said without blinking, "Neither."
Xu Xingzhi held his cheeks: "Xuechen is right."
After speaking, he turned to the group of disciples who were only waiting for them to issue orders, picked one of them, and asked in a loud voice, "Lu Yujiu, you Qinglianggu have been studying all kinds of formations all year round. To hide, you must use the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to create a large array of spiritual hidden corpse arrays. If you want to practice this array, how many days will it take?"
Qinglianggu has strict rules and regulations, and the top and bottom are clearly defined. There are almost no people present who enter the inner door later than Lu Yujiu. They are all seniors, and he does not dare to intervene without authorization.
It wasn't until Wen Xuechen gave a tacit approval that he replied, "It's exactly thirty-six o'clock. It's been more than two days since the villagers were kidnapped. At this time, I'm going to call my fellow sect to help, I'm afraid I'm too weak; and if I wait for them Refining a corpse formation, with the aid of the formation, and summoning the soul, is like a tiger with wings, like a fish in water, and if you want to suppress it, it will be even more difficult."
Xu Xingzhi boasted: "This child is very good. He analyzes it properly and cultivates the Tao."
Lu Yujiu's analysis was really good, and Zhou Beinan couldn't help but glance at him.
Wen Xuechen tapped the armrest of the wheelchair with his fingers and looked at Xu Xingzhi: "You are very familiar with our disciples in the valley?"
Hearing this, Lu Yujiu nervously tightened the hem of his clothes.
However, Xu Xingzhi answered frankly: "I had a relationship with him during the ceremony of the Eastern Emperor a few years ago. He saved my disciple of Fengling Mountain, and he is a smart boy. You promote him more, Did you hear Wen Baimao?"
Wen Xuechen came across this skinless and shameless person who asked for credit for others, and was very speechless, and urged: "Xu Xingzhi, if you have an idea in your heart, talk about it quickly, don't talk about it."
Xu Xingzhi hooked the hairband that fell in front of him to the back of his head.
"I do have a way." He laughed, "...just a little bit more exciting."
Wen Xuechen: "...you said."
Xu Xingzhi said seriously: "A raid from all directions, splitting the mountain from the outside."
Zhou Beinan almost laughed out loud: "What kind of solution is this??"
Wen Xuechen did not smile. He frowned for a moment and said, "...It seems feasible."
Qu Chi also agreed: "It is indeed possible. As far as I know, when the ghosts draw an array, they must set up an altar, raise a high platform, and worship their souls. Now they are like lost dogs, and they need to borrow the spiritual power in the mountain of Baimajian. It is impossible to set up an altar on the peak of Baimajian Mountain in a dignified manner, only like a gopher, dig through the white horse's tip and borrow Qi in the mountain to set up an altar."
"Don't they just want to draw an array?" Xu Xingzhi showed a sly smile, "Let's first find out that they have dug a few passages for escape in the white horse's tip, and then gather the four of us to attack the white horse from the outside. The main peak of the peak - there is no need to split the mountain, as long as they can split their altar and the drawn sacrificial formation, they lose the formation, and panic, what else can they be arrogant?"
"At that time, we just need to follow the proven passage, go deep, and catch the turtle in the urn."
After the discussion, Xiao Tao Xian was settled in a teahouse by them.
The boss still had some sympathy for the child, and decided to keep him in the store to be a boy who made tea and boiled water, and took care of his food and accommodation. When he was a little older and could decide to stay by himself, the boss would let him go.
Wen Xuechen had a serious heart disease and was not good at walking, so Zhou Xian took him and the four accompanying disciples to Baimajian to set up the formation. Zhou Beinan and Wen Xuechen followed closely, and Xu Xingzhi, who was in charge of the checkout, was the last one to come out of the teahouse. of.
After he caught up with the team, the first thing he did was run to grab Qu Chi's whisk and drag him to the end: "Quchi, Quchi, come here, I'll give you something good."
Qu Chi let him pull, not annoyed at all: "What's the matter?"
Xu Xingzhi took out a candied haws in a paper bag from his arms.
Qu Chi: "...???"
"I thought about it. My master, Qing Jingjun, has always spoiled me. He only gave me a hundred spirit stones to cast a fairy tool for a month. It's a bit bullying to exchange a hundred spirit stones for one candied haws." Xu Xingzhi stuffed the candied haws on him. In his hand, "So I bought another one for you, let's be loyal enough."
Qu Chi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and stuffed the candied haws back again: "...Thank you."
"… how?"
"No need." Qu Chi replied, "Master taught me since I was a child that a person who cultivates the Tao should not be greedy for the taste of the world. But the spiritual stone I promised you will not be owed, you can rest assured."
With Qu Chi's promise, Xu Xingzhi finally felt at ease.
He stuffed the candied haws into his mouth, bit down a hawthorn ball, and then he remembered something. He turned around and asked him, "So, it's not like you haven't eaten this kind of snack before."
Qu Chi shook his head honestly.
In addition to sympathy, Xu Xingzhi still teased him seriously: "Do you know what sweetness is like? Don't want to try it?"
"Of course I have thought about it." Qu Chi said warmly, "Master doesn't allow it, so I just think about it. You know, I was abandoned by my parents in the water when I was born, and was adopted by a temple later. When Master passed by, he knew me. I have spiritual roots and spirituality, so I took me to Danyang Peak and raised me carefully. Master has been very kind to me, and I should obey his orders."
After teasing Qu Chi, Xu Xingzhi bit the candied haws and rushed back to Zhou Beinan: "Xiao Beibei."
Zhou Beinan rolled his eyes: "...Why do you look like a butterfly. What do you want to do?"
"Don't do anything." Xu Xingzhi held the candied haws in his mouth, "I'm just asking you, when will the matter between Xiao Xian'er and Xue Chen be settled?"
As soon as this matter was mentioned, Zhou Beinan slapped Xu Xingzhi with his elbow: "Go, go, take care of my sister's affairs, and find a good family for yourself first."
Xu Xingzhi said happily: "You are not in a hurry, I have nothing to worry about."
"I think it's good for Rui." Zhou Beinan said, "I think she has so much interest in you."
Xu Xingzhi scratched his face: "Ruji, she's a good girl, but... I think my brother likes her very much."
Zhou Beinan frowned slightly: "...Xu Pingsheng? You don't care what he does, the man is unmarried, the woman is unmarried, how can this matter be discussed on a first-come-first-served basis?"
Xu Xingzhi rarely showed a somewhat embarrassed expression: "I know that my brother has a crush on her, and it will not be good to repair with her. Besides, I don't have any feelings for men and women, and being with her is not a delay. took her."
"Ru Ri is a famous beauty in Simen. If you live with her day and night, there is no love between men and women?" Zhou Beinan said in admiration, "...You are really a strange person."
When Xu Xingzhi was about to answer, he suddenly heard a very happy call from the nearby mountain: "Brother Shi Ri Ri Ri is buzzing—"
When Qu Chi heard the sound, he was stunned and looked around.
Zhou Beinan was familiar with this voice, but he reacted faster than Xu Xingzhi.
He joked: "The two younger brothers in your family love to stick to you too much."
Xu Xingzhi didn't have time to sneer and go back, Yu Jian flew away, and directly took out the two little cubs who were huddled in a mountain. Without further ado, he turned the sword body into a folding fan, and knocked on the forehead: "Didn't you and Senior Brother Wen go first? Why did you squat here?"
Meng Chongguang was not afraid of Xu Xingzhi at all. The half-aged boy did not shy away from it at all. He stretched out his hand and wrapped his arms around Xu Xingzhi's waist: "I miss Senior Brother and want to stay with Senior Brother."
Xu Xingzhi was held by him: "...How long have we been separated?"
Meng Chongguang's voice was a little aggrieved, and he rubbed in his arms: "I don't know, but it just feels like I haven't seen you for a long time."
Xu Xingzhi really couldn't help him, so he snorted his hair and asked Jiuzhideng next to him, "Why are you messing around with him?"
Jiuzhideng's speech was as concise as ever: "...I'm afraid he will run around and cause trouble."
Xu Xingzhi asked again, "Did you two sneak out halfway?"
Meng Zhongguang nodded: "Yes!"
"Um what? Are you still proud?" Xu Xingzhi put on a serious face, "If Senior Brother Wen scolds you, I won't care."
Meng Chongguang's smiling eyes were like moon hooks, and the mist was lingering: "Senior brother, you don't want me to be told."
Jiuzhideng, who was completely excluded by Meng Chongguang in his speech, didn't care, and only looked at Xu Xingzhi wholeheartedly: "Senior brother, let's go."
Xu Xingzhi sighed and gave the leftover candied haws in his hand to Jiuzhideng: "Go, go."
Jiuzhideng took it over, with a serious face, cherishingly ate it one bite at a time.
Because of the half candied haws, Meng Chongguang glared at Jiuzhideng all the way with jealousy.
Perhaps it was because he knew too much about Xu Xing's calf-guarding problems. When Xu Xing's group arrived at Baimajian and met with Wen Xuechen and his group, Wen Xuechen did not comment on the two Fengling Mountain disciples who had fled halfway.
Of course, he is generally too lazy to care if he is not a disciple of his own sect.
He marked the location of the ghost repair cave that he just found out on a sketch, and showed them to Xu Xingzhi one by one.
There is no one inhabited here within a hundred miles. These ghost repairers sneak in quietly, imitating the cunning rabbit and drilling seven holes on the main peak of Baimajian.
The group of people who came here was only fourteen or five in total, and they were slightly evenly distributed, and it happened that two people were in charge of each hole.
After shaking the mountain and rudely breaking the formation, they could break into the cave according to the pre-arrangement, kill the ghost repairers, grab the corpses of the civilians, and send them to the ground safely.
Xu Xingzhi arranged: "Chongguang's cultivation base is still shallow, follow me into the hole in the south. Beinan, Ruzhou's swordsmanship is first-rate, and she is the best among female disciples of Fengling Mountain, and she is proficient in medical skills. She can bring Qinglianggu's disciples. Enter the cave... Lu Yujiu, you go with her."
Lu Yujiu cupped his hands: "Yes, Senior Brother Xu."
Yuan Ruri's face was filled with unwillingness: "...Yes."
He continued: "Little Deng, you bring a Danyang Peak disciple into the cave."
Jiuzhideng said steadily: "I am with my senior brother. Otherwise, I can be alone."
Xu Xingzhi frowned: "It's too dangerous to be alone.... Forget it, follow me."
After simply arranging the cave entry, Xu Xingzhi turned his gaze to Qu Chi and the others, and raised his eyebrows coquettishly: "...Everyone, come on? Who comes first?"
Within a moment, the four of them each chose a place and stood around the mountain.
Xu Xing gave a whistle and took the lead, the folding fan in his palm turned into a long sickle of light, and it turned a few circles in the air, rolling out a cold fire, and while the wind and smoke lingered, he slashed towards the side of Baimajian Mountain.
As soon as the sickle went down, the bird was stunned, and the mountain was pale. The whole mountain twitched violently, and then a puff of dust was slowly raised, covering the sun to a dizzy level.
A small mountain top was swept down directly, and large pieces of rock rolled down the mountain.
Not waiting for this momentum to dissipate, the other three forces that were not inferior to them attacked from the other three sides.
According to the pre-arrangement, while the mountain was shaking, everyone broke into the cave directly.
The first to be disturbed was the entrance of the cave that Zhou Xian and Wen Xuechen were in charge of.
Not long after the two entered, they heard the cries of ghosts in front of them, and the wind was fierce.
It didn't take a moment for them to see two evil spirits clearing the way, each armed with weapons, rushing towards them.
Zhou Xian stood horizontally, and with a hook of his long spear, he hooked a ghost's life-threatening hook and pressed it to the ground. Wen Xuechen's gossip wheel and disk followed, and the spell pattern spread out and swayed on the ghost. , it immediately screamed and disappeared.
Zhou Xian's movements hardly paused, he shot away the other ghost's long sword, and plunged straight into the cave, hunting in a graceful manner, and with just one click, he knocked out the ghost Xiu's talisman who was hiding behind and manipulating the ghost, and stabbed the ghost Xiu with a spear. land!
She put away the gun and looked back at Wen Xuechen.
The remaining evil spirits have also disappeared.
Zhou Xian smiled softly and pointed to his temple.
Wen Xuechen understood, reached out to pick it, and took a leaf from his temple.
He was a little warm in his ears, turned his face away, and shook the wheelchair to go inside.
Zhou Xian put the gun back into the holster on his back, pushed his wheelchair, and walked towards the depths of the cave.
Xu Xingzhi, Meng Chongguang and Jiuzhideng pushed in very smoothly. With the town of Xu Xingzhi, Meng Chongguang and Jiuzhideng hardly need to do anything.
They were the first to break into the depths of the altar.
As Xu Xingzhi expected, the altar was shaken, and it was already cracked, and the curse array was also damaged.
The guarding ghost repairers had abandoned the altar and fled. The bodies of the troupe they collected were lined up in a row, and most of them had been corrupted by the magic of the ghost clan.
Xu Xingzhi said "Condolences", and while singing "Great Compassion Mantra", he checked the altar and sincerely saved them.
... It's just that this "Great Compassion Mantra" is really unpleasant to sing, and the tune has already flown out of the sky.
Meng Chongguang and Jiuzhideng originally planned to go and see the corpses, but who would have thought that the two of them had just walked a few steps when they heard a shocking explosion from the center of the altar.
The gravel splashed, the lime filled the sky, and Xu Xingzhi's figure was completely buried in the collapsed altar.
Meng Chongguang panicked, and regardless of the dirty and choking lime, he walked up to him in a few steps: "Senior Brother? Senior Brother!!!"
In the dust and fog, a person jumped out.
Meng Chongguang jumped up and grabbed Xu Xingzhi's robe and checked up and down: "Senior brother, is there anything wrong? Are you injured?"
Xu Xingzhi's legs were a little soft, and it took a long while before he could speak: "...Fuck, there are bugs."
In the copper cauldron he sacrificed just now, he saw the Gu worms that the ghost clan had not had time to recover.
Seeing this scene, Xu Xingzhi's scalp exploded at the time, his spiritual power instantly lost control, and even the tripod and the platform exploded.
Seeing Xu Xingzhi's trembling appearance, Meng Chongguang couldn't help laughing, and even Jiuzhideng raised the corners of his lips slightly.
However, the mutation only happened in an instant.
A ghost cultivator who was hiding among the dead piled up while everyone was unprepared.
In front of him was the undefended back of the Nine Branch Lanterns.
Xu Xingzhi's eyes turned, only to see the ghost repair holding the mantra stick, silently attacking the back of Jiuzhideng.
Jiuzhideng was just when the paralysis was relaxed, and he had not enough experience in dealing with the enemy. Hearing the sound of the sword breaking through the air, he only had time to turn around and saw the head of the mantra stick and snake with a bright red brand.
Seeing that it was inevitable that he was about to be stabbed in the chest by that curse mark, Jiuzhideng's eyes darkened, and he was protected by someone in his arms.
... The snake head slammed into Xu Xingzhi's back.
Xu Xingzhi took the blow hard, and his movements did not stop for a moment. In the gap when he turned around, the folding fan turned into a meteor gun with a blade, which hit the ghost repair jaw, and lifted him dozens of feet away.
Facing the fallen corpse of the ghost repair, Xu Xingzhi scolded: "Dare to beat my junior brother, bastard."
Immediately, his body swayed twice and fell backwards, just into the sluggish nine-branched lantern's arms.
Regardless of etiquette, Meng Chongguang rushed forward and hurriedly tore off Xu Xing's belt, exposing his back.
A snake-head talisman was clearly singed on the flesh in the center of Xu Xing's back. The surrounding area was swollen and bruised, and scarlet veins stretched out around the wound. In a blink of an eye, they had already crawled all over his entire back.
Meng Chongguang sealed several of his acupoints, barely stopping the spread of the talisman.
There was already a cry in his voice: "Senior brother, how do you feel?"
Xu Xingzhi gritted his teeth, and it took a long time to squeeze out a word: "... cold."
