Take yourself to the altar

Chapter 9 [009] An Unexpected Meeting

Black smoke gathered.

The spiritual power in the talisman erupted, and instantly turned into colorful streamers, which spread outward with a bang.

The black smoke was supposed to condense into a humanoid body, but now with a surge of spiritual power, the black smoke scattered in all directions, and the strong wind blew and blew in all directions.As if the black smoke had been severely injured, it actually dimmed visibly with the naked eye. The ghost hiding in the black smoke refused to give in, screaming hoarsely, wanting to gather the scattered evil power again by its own power.

Impatient, Lin Hu raised his saber forward.

But after a few cuts, the black smoke has no substance at all, and the spiritual power on the knife only obliterates a little yin and evil energy, and has no effect at all.On the contrary, black smoke suddenly rolled up, almost engulfing him, thanks to Feng Yu's sharp eyes and quick hands to catch him back.

"Don't worry, let it struggle again~"

Feng Yu watched with cold eyes.

Letting the dark ghost expend his energy, gathering black smoke again, and when he was faintly about to take human form, he unceremoniously repeated his old trick, took out another stack of talismans, and threw them into the black smoke!

--howl!

At the moment when the spiritual power erupted, Feng Yu could almost hear the ghost roaring in anger!

The black smoke surging like a tide just now couldn't bear the spiritual power erosion from the eruption of the talisman, let alone this ghostly figure in front of him.In Feng Yu's eyes, the ghost image seemed to have swallowed a blazing flame bomb, its body swelled and swelled, and then exploded completely with a bang!
Lin Hu clenched his fists and whispered, full of excitement!
Feng Yu couldn't help but look pale, and shook his head with a smile, and said arrogantly: "This ghost, it's really stupid! ——Huh?!"

Unexpectedly, a moment of carelessness will cause trouble in an instant!
A gray-white ghost suddenly escaped from the exploding ghost shadow, as swift as a meteor, fleeting. After Feng Yu reacted, he couldn't even take a defensive action, but was actually infiltrated by the ghost and invaded his body!
When the ghost entered his body, Feng Yu lost his eyesight and froze in place.

Lin Hu turned pale with horror: "Taoist? Feng Daoist?!"

Just as he was about to step forward to visit him, Feng Yu was just stunned for a moment, then a gray light appeared in his eyes, and then he quickly recovered: "Ahem—heh, Soul Eater? It's really suicide, ridiculous!" He laughed disdainfully. With one sound, he signaled that he was fine.

Unexpectedly, in the next moment, something warm dripped from the end of his nose.

Feng Yu raised his hand to wipe it, his hand was covered with blood, more and more he wiped it, the blood flowed from his mouth and nose, and there was no pain everywhere around his body, only then did he realize that he had been seriously injured silently!Hastily took out two "Rejuvenation Talismans" and photographed them. When the spiritual power of the Talismans turned into a warm and rejuvenating air, nourishing the pain all over his body, Feng Yu just breathed a sigh of relief and secretly said "It's dangerous!"
However, this injury did not come from that ghost, but from Feng Yu himself.

It was true that the ghost was unlucky to deal with him with methods such as "soul devouring and seizing the body" to directly attack the primordial spirit.

Heh~, Feng Yu's primordial spirit is so tyrannical that he can't fully accept it.In order to keep his own consciousness intact, he suppressed even the temptation to go directly to the god's seat. A mere ghost touching Feng Yu's Yuanshen is indeed seeking his own death!
The same is true.

The ghost broke into Feng Yu's body and melted silently without being able to hold on for even a moment.

Feng Yu didn't even have time to see the appearance of the ghost clearly.

But Yuanshen annihilated the ghost invasion by itself, and the power leaked out in a subtle way, caused Feng Yu's body to be injured without noticing it.Fortunately, the two "rejuvenation" cards stabilized the injury, and continued to nourish with gentle spiritual power, so that no future troubles would be left.

After experiencing this, Feng Yu's desire for practice methods became more and more intense!
Your own weakness has really reached the point where it needs to be resolved urgently, don't encounter similar things again, but your body is shattered by your own soul, then it will be a big joke in the world!

"Master, are you alright?"

Just now, Lin Hu could clearly see the fluctuation of Feng Yu's breath in an instant.

Even after using the talisman at this moment, the expression on his face could not be recovered.

Feng Yu let out a breath, and said with a smile, "It's okay, just now that ghost made a sudden attack and touched the back hand I left behind, accidentally exerting too much force, and hurt myself instead."

Lin Hu stared and said in surprise, "Didn't the Taoist priest be injured by that ghost?"

Feng Yu replied: "No." He didn't want to say too much, taking advantage of the fact that the magic charm around him hadn't expired, he said, "Go on. Since we're here, we must meet the mastermind behind the scenes. I'm very curious now, can I What kind of ghost is it that made such a scene!"

After a pause, Feng Yu reminded again: "However, it's still the same sentence, strong man, you have to be prepared in your heart!"

Lin Hu's eyes were dim, and he nodded heavily.

Just crossing the stone bridge, you will encounter changes in the world and waves of ghosts and ghosts. Can the villagers of Shiyan and a few officials have a chance of survival in such a desperate situation?Lin Hu already had the answer in his heart.

The two walked along the road, through the fields, and walked towards the village.

Although the ghosts of the past are gone, the faded gray and white world remains unchanged.Walking on the ridge, the rotten smell from the roadside filth seems to be stronger than before.Feng Yu was full of vigilance, paying close attention to the movement around him, for fear of being plotted against again.

Unexpectedly, this distance was very peaceful.

The two walked to the entrance of the village.

If Feng Yu felt something, he reminded Lin Hu, and then he took a step forward with a sword in one hand and a talisman in the other.The familiar feeling surged again, Feng Yu felt as if he had passed through an invisible barrier, and once again experienced the vision of "one step out, the world will change"!

But this time, it's a change for the better.

The gray and white world, like faded ink, is full of decay and decadence, and it returns to colorful in an instant. The village returns to its original color, and the decay and decay disappear. The coldness like gangrene is also bright The sun shines to restore warmth.

Lin Hu was greatly surprised, but he was also a little cautious: "Master Daoist, are we out now?"

Feng Yu was even more shocked than him. It didn't matter whether the ghost that was thought to be murderous at every step turned into a sunny and peaceful mountain village, what surprised him the most was the anger hidden in the village in his perception!Feng Yu suddenly discovered that all his predictions about Shiyan were wrong!
"go!"

Feng Yu didn't reply to his words, but followed his breath and went straight to the village.

Lin Hu recognized the layout of the village. Judging from the direction, the place Feng Yu wanted to go was the drying dam in the village where grain was dried, and there was also an ancestral hall for the ancestors there.In the past, grand events in the village, such as electing elders, or settling disputes and presiding over public opinion, would all be held in the ancestral hall.

Lin Hu didn't know Feng Yu's purpose in going there.

Just walking through the village square, I saw the village where everything was as before, but now it was silent, not even half a person was seen.Thinking that he had guessed the end of the villagers of Shiyan, he felt a icy chill that even the bright sun could not dissipate!
Unexpectedly, as soon as the two of them arrived at the sun dam in the village, suddenly there was a whistle in the ancestral hall, and dozens of people rushed out shadowily, blocking them on the sun dam in front of the ancestral hall.

Lin Hu was startled, and hurriedly stepped in front of Feng Yu.

He didn't know that Feng Yu was nourished by the "Rejuvenation Talisman", and he was fine for the time being.This subconscious reaction touched Feng Yu's heart.

Look at people again!

Those dozens of people were all men, ranging in age from gray hair to fifteen or sixteen year olds.Everyone held a "weapon" in their hands, such as hoes, sickles, poles, or logging axes. Lin Hu recognized the identity of the people from their faces—the villagers of Shiyan Village!

On those simple faces, resentment, fear, and tension emerged, vivid and lifelike!But Lin Hu has experienced the lesson of "Cui Lao San", and he has long since dared not act rashly.It's just that seeing these innocent villagers turned into ghosts who died in vain, Lin Hu felt sad.

"Master Daoist, the villagers are all innocent people who were killed, they shouldn't be wandering ghosts! Can you do a ritual for them like you did in Biyun Mountain, and save everyone from being reincarnated?"

"What?"

Feng Yu looked back at him strangely, "You want me to 'send' them?"

Lin Hu felt cold, and sighed: "Don't they even have the qualification to re-enter reincarnation?"

Feng Yu reacted, couldn't help laughing, and said, "You, who told you that they are dead?" Lin Hu wanted to plead again, but when the words came to his lips, he suddenly heard Feng Yu's words, and stared. : "You, you mean, the folks are still alive?—Hiss, but, how is it possible?!"

Feng Yu also shook his head in doubt.

Look, even Lin Hu found it inconceivable, and Feng Yu couldn't even figure out how a group of ordinary villagers survived the murderous ghosts.And looking at the current situation and the popularity in the ancestral hall, it is obvious that not one or two survived, but most of the villagers in Shiyan Village survived!
"You two ghosts, don't let yourself be presumptuous here!"

"Master Ford has an order, don't leave again, don't blame us for being rude!"

One of the villagers, a man in a short shirt with a logging axe, saw the two men hesitated, and immediately scolded them!There were a lot of warnings in the words, which immediately made Lin Hu unhappy-why did he try his best and risk his life and death to come here?Isn't it just to save these guys from the evil spirits?How come the other party is still so ungrateful!

After hearing what the other party said, Feng Yu was surprised and thoughtful.

"Master Ford"?He seemed to understand where the "sandalwood" smell he smelled earlier came from - the land god!

However, it is a strange thing that such a vicious ghost can be restrained by the land god.

Let's talk about the present.

The villagers in Shiyan must have been infested by ghosts recently. The man had scolded him before, but another farmer with a hoe didn't have that patience, and said in a low voice, "Hu Er, what are you talking about with this ghost? If he doesn't leave, then Just drive him away!"

The farmer let out a low growl, and raised a hoe to bully him. Several other strong men beside him, each holding "weapons", came out in response to the sound, and they all attacked Lin Hu who was standing in front!
Feng Yu's eyes moved slightly.

The agricultural tools held by those villagers carried a familiar scent of sandalwood, which was actually blessed by "incense".If ordinary ghosts face each other, once they are hit, they will immediately suffer from the burning of incense and flames. Those who are more powerful can escape quickly and still survive, and those who are not capable will burn themselves to death on the spot!

"Interesting." Feng Yu watched with great interest.

Lin Hu was angered by the villagers.Regardless of his respect for Feng Yu, he must be humble when he speaks, but it is different when facing this group of villagers.He yelled "Presumptuous", swiped the saber in his palm, and the crude and clumsy offensive of the villagers collapsed in an instant.Those hoes, poles, pitchforks, etc., couldn't stop Lin Hu's knife, they all broke apart in unison, and fell all over the ground with a burst of clattering sound!
"A certain person travels day and night without avoiding life and death, and specially invited Feng Daochang from 'Qingfengguan' to help him out. Is this how you treat a certain person?"

"Also! Let me ask you, where are the officials and brothers who came with me? Why can't I see them?!"
