The heavens start from Quanzhen swordsmanship

The two continued to move forward, taking away the toad ghost, and the bridge disappeared.

"By the way, why didn't the toad ghost eat those ghosts just now? Instead, he waited until we took those ghosts away before he started talking?"

"Those ghosts should be under his control. After all, he stays where he is and can't move. He is one of the more miserable ghosts!"

"I see, he can reach that big without moving. If he could move, I guess all the ghosts in this place wouldn't be enough for him!"

The two of them talked, crossed the bluestone bridge, and then followed their feelings towards another Yin Qi cyclone node.

The two of them walked for about two moments when a fork in the road suddenly appeared in front of them.

Sitting on the side of the road at the fork in the road was an old woman with a kind face.

After Xu Zhiqing and Uncle Jiu saw this, they stopped.

The two of them did not move, but the old woman waved to them.

"You two young students, come and take a look. I have just boiled red eggs. They are sweet and delicious!"

Xu Zhiqing and Uncle Jiu looked at each other. Are the red eggs still sweet and delicious?

Are they rice dumplings?

"Let's go and have a look!"

The two of them clasped the magic talismans secretly in their hands, and then came to the old woman.

When the old woman saw the two coming, she hurriedly opened the small basin in front of her.

The small basin was filled with round eggs.

Xu Zhiqing and Uncle Jiu looked at each other. After reading the eggs, their faces twitched.

The two turned their heads silently, and when they came in, they opened their eyes.

The eggs in this basin, no matter how serious they are, are all rotten and dry eyes.

Uncle Jiu touched the magic talisman and wanted to do it.

Xu Zhiqing silently stopped him.

He looked at the old woman in front of him.

"Old lady, it's really hard for you to come out and sell eggs in such a cold weather!"

"How much do these eggs cost? I wonder if the money is enough?"

Xu Zhiqing took out the big bucks from his body, grabbed the old woman's hand, and put a dozen big bucks into the old woman's hand.

"Can you give me this basin?"

The old woman looked slightly startled when she heard this. She looked down at the big boy in her hand, and then looked up at Xu Zhiqing and Uncle Jiu.

She moved closer to the two of them and moved her nose.

After a long while, she said hoarsely: "It turns out we are two strangers. Why is the money I gave you so strange?"

She said and returned the money to Xu Zhiqing.

"We don't need this kind of money. We didn't need it before, and we won't be able to use it in the future!"

After she finished speaking, she asked curiously: "Young Master, no one has come to this poor place for a long time. Where did you come from?"

Her question made Xu Zhiqing and Uncle Jiu stunned.

"This mother-in-law, since we are strangers, of course we came from the human world?"

"The human world? How is that possible? This passage doesn't connect to the human world either?"

The mother-in-law looked suspicious.

After she finished speaking, she murmured: "Even those who come in are all ghosts from the underworld! How could a stranger come in?"

"Fresh people... strangers... sweet and delicious strangers..."

The old woman's eyes that were still clear as she spoke slowly turned red, and she was about to lose consciousness.

"Uncle Jiu, what's going on?"

"I do not know either!"

How could Uncle Jiu know what was going on?

While the two were talking, the originally amiable old woman's body slowly elongated, the flesh on both sides of her face also receded, and her eyes and mouth protruded outwards.

"Certainly!"

Before the old woman had completely transformed, Xu Zhiqing took out a soul-fixing talisman and pressed it on it.

The transformed old woman became quiet.

When Uncle Jiu saw this scene, he turned to look at Xu Zhiqing.

"Why don't you act normally?"

"Wait until her transformation is completed before we take action?"

"It takes several seconds for her to change. It's too slow!"

Xu Zhiqing said, took out the soul bag and put the old woman away.

"Earlier, the old woman murmured that the passage in this place is connected to the underworld! It seems that this place is full of ghosts, and it must be related to the underworld!"

Uncle Jiu nodded.

"If this place is connected to the cave of the underworld, it would be normal for ghosts to live here! Because this place is originally part of the underworld!"

"By the way, the old lady said earlier that no one has come to this place for a long time?"

Xu Zhiqing hummed.

"The person she talks about, that is, the ghost we talk about, has not had anyone come in for a long time. Does that mean this place may have been disconnected from the underworld?"

"Maybe!"

Xu Zhiqing pointed to the road ahead.

"Let's keep moving forward!"

"Maybe we'll meet some sober ghosts ahead. Let's ask and maybe we'll get the answer!"

As they said this, they both chose the right side.

As for the road here?

The two of them just followed the direction of the Yin Qi cyclone node. Even if there was no road ahead, they would still move forward.

Following the road, the two of them walked forward not long before they immediately hid behind a big rock.

Behind the big rock, the two people looked at each other with disbelief on their faces.

Xu Zhiqing pointed to the place he was looking at before.

"Then...how can there be a village?"

Uncle Jiu shook his head repeatedly.

"I do not know either!"

The two of them said and decided to look up and take another look.

When the person stood up carefully, then took a look, and finally retracted quickly.

"We are in big trouble!"

After the two came back, Uncle Jiu said this.

Xu Zhiqing nodded in agreement.

He never expected that a village would appear in front of him.

It is not a village where people live, but a village where ghosts live.

Every one of those beings standing in the village is a ghost.

"Uncle Jiu, didn't you come down for a visit earlier?"

When Uncle Jiu heard Xu Zhiqing's words, he sighed: "I went in another direction before, and I didn't go far when I encountered ghosts. I ran away from them, and then more and more ghosts chased me! There’s nothing I can do about it!”

"If I knew there was a village here, I would definitely find a way to explore here!"

When Uncle Jiu said this, he frowned.

"I thought this was just a small cave, but it looks like this winter is unusual!"

Xu Zhiqing nodded.

"Those ghosts don't look the same as those outside!"

Xu Zhiqing stood up again and took a few peeks.

This village is not an ordinary village, but a village with a watchtower.

In front of the village, there is a watchtower with a guard standing on top of it.

As Xu Zhiqing was watching, he suddenly noticed a pair of ghosts quietly approaching them from the side.

After Xu Zhiqing noticed it, he reminded Uncle Jiu.

"Uncle Jiu, we were exposed!"

"Why was it exposed?"

As Uncle Jiu spoke, he looked in the direction Xu Zhiqing pointed, and sure enough, a group of ghosts were quietly moving towards them.

"We were really discovered by them, but why didn't they come forward and instead try to surround us?"

"I don't know if you ask me, what should we do next?"

Xu Zhiqing really doesn't have much experience in dealing with ghosts.

In his opinion, with these ghosts surrounding them, a fight would be inevitable.

Uncle Jiu looked at the ghosts that came over, and his heart trembled a little. "I...you act based on my look. If it doesn't work, let's turn around and run away!"

If you can't fight, just run away, no shame.

Especially when being targeted by so many ghosts.

Xu Zhiqing nodded and agreed with Uncle Jiu's words.

These ghosts all seem to be physically strong ghosts, and each ghost has a unique evil spirit on its body.

After Xu Zhiqing and Uncle Jiu stood up, the ghosts seemed to realize that they were exposed.

"Quick, surround them, don't let them escape!"

Xu Zhiqing and Uncle Jiu were holding peach wood swords and had no intention of running away.

Xu Zhiqing even glanced at the twelve ghosts.

The person walking at the front should be the captain of this team.

The rest of the ghosts have either swords or long iron forks in their hands.

Following the captain's order, a ghost surrounded Xu Zhiqing and Uncle Jiu.

Xu Zhiqing and Uncle Jiu looked at these ghosts warily.

"Brothers, if you have something to say, please say it carefully, but don't do anything!"

Uncle Jiu said this loudly.

"what?"

It was okay that he didn't speak, but when he did, the captain's face changed slightly.

"Are you a stranger?"

Uncle Jiu asked in surprise: "Is it rare to see strangers?"

The captain of the team stared at Uncle Jiu.

"You are indeed a stranger!"

He didn't answer Uncle Jiu's words at all, and there was joy on his face when he spoke.

"Where are you from?"

Uncle Jiu stared at the team leader.

"Of course I came from the human world!"

The squad leader's face froze, and then he said ecstatically: "Is there a passage to the world?"

The faces of the other ghosts also became excited.

When Uncle Jiu saw the scene of the team leader and others, he winked at Xu Zhiqing.

"Could this guy want to go to the human world and do evil?"

"Wait a minute, if we can't reach an agreement, take action immediately!"

Xu Zhiqing understood what Uncle Jiu meant and nodded.

"There is a passage to the world!"

Uncle Jiu looked at the team leader.

"Where is your place? Why is it connected to the human world?"

He asked, but the squad leader had no intention of answering his words.

He waved to his men.

"Go, kidnap them!"

When Xu Zhiqing and Uncle Jiu heard this, they both raised the peach wood sword in their hands.

"Kill out!"

The two said they were about to take action.

"Wait a minute!"

At this moment, an old ghost with a cane walked slowly towards them from a distance, and beside him were two little kids about seven or eight years old.

The ghost who originally wanted to take action turned respectful after seeing the old ghost.

Seeing this, Xu Zhiqing and Uncle Jiu also stopped.

The old ghost came over and his eyes swept around Xu Zhiqing and Uncle Jiu.

Finally, his eyes fell on Uncle Jiu.

"Are you... a descendant of the Maoshan sect?"

Lin Zheng raised his eyebrows.

"Pindao is! Pindao is Lin Jiu, the thirty-fifth generation descendant of the Maoshan sect!"

When he said this, the old ghost showed surprise on his face.

"Are you really? So, we are saved!"

The other ghosts were a little confused.

The captain, on the other hand, was thoughtful after hearing this.

The old ghost looked at Xu Zhiqing.

"Who is this one?"

Although Xu Zhiqing is also wearing a Taoist robe, who makes his Tianxin sect's Taoist robes less famous than those of the Maoshan sect?
"He is Taoist Xu from the Tianxin Sect, and he is also a person with profound magical power!"

Uncle Jiu said as he saluted the old man.

"Fellow Daoist Xu and I discovered that there was an evil ghost causing trouble in a passage, and then we followed the passage and entered here!"

"Dare I ask, old timer, what exactly is this place? I asked the Netherworld Underworld and they said this place is not under their control!"

Uncle Jiu felt that it was rare to meet a clear person, so he simply asked the questions in his heart.

"Also, why are there so many evil spirits in this place who have lost their minds? They don't even have the intention to talk to us, and they are going to take action when they come up!"

Uncle Jiu's words made the old man smile bitterly.

"Director Lin, our place does not belong to the underworld!"

The old man said, looking around.

"Taoist Lin and Taoist Xu, if you can trust me, please follow me back to the village to talk!"

Xu Zhiqing and Uncle Jiu looked at each other.

Both of them are talented and courageous people, and they are not afraid to go to the ghost village.

"Since the old man invites us, we can do anything!"

After Uncle Jiu saw that Xu Zhiqing was also willing to go, he agreed to the old man.

When the old man saw Uncle Jiu agreeing, he waved to the young and strong ghosts holding weapons.

"Okay, okay, put away all the weapons and don't disturb the distinguished guests!"

When Xu Zhiqing heard this, he felt happy.

This old guy, if they didn't agree before... would they take action?
However, the other party has not taken action yet, and they are not willing to take action.

The old man wants to know them, and they also want to know what is going on in this place!
The two of them followed the old man, while the other ghosts followed silently.

It didn't take long for several people to enter the existence.

After Xu Zhiqing walked here at the watchtower, he paused.

"Old sir, why do you still set up this thing in your village?"

The old man knew that Xu Zhiqing was talking about the watchtower.

He smiled bitterly: "It's not that we want to set it up, but we can't do it without setting it up! Outside this village, there are many monsters that have lost their minds. After they see us, they will want to devour us. Lose!"

"To guard against them, we have to erect this watchtower!"

The old man said, pointing around the village.

"Look, we have even surrounded the village with stones!"

Xu Zhiqing and Uncle Jiu nodded slightly.

When they looked at this village before, it was like looking at a fortress.

"There are also guards. We didn't have a guard here before, until..."

The old man paused for a moment before speaking.

"When we get inside, I will tell you in detail bit by bit. Just in time, I also have something to ask you!"

Xu Zhiqing and Uncle Jiu agreed, not worried about the old man's conspiracy.

The two followed the old ghost into the village.

The village where ghosts live is not much different from the village where people live.

Maybe these dead ghosts still maintain the habits they had when they were alive. The residences in the underworld are not much different from those in the upper world.

The old ghost brought Xu Zhiqing and Uncle Jiu to the living room, while the rest of the guards stood guard outside the door.

"The guests are strangers, please forgive us that we don't have anything to entertain you!"

Xu Zhiqing and Uncle Jiu said politely: "Old sir, you don't have to be like this!"

After the two of them finished talking, Uncle Jiu asked bluntly: "Old sir, can you tell me what's going on with those mindless evil...monsters outside?" (End of Chapter)
