Chapter 16 Black candle
[In the chaotic world of the five turbidities, all living beings are miserable people walking in the secular world. With your sword in your hand, you turn a poor living being into a turmoil again. Your survival point is +1 (green). 】

Li Daoxuan looked at the ghost slaves who were chopped down by him and let out a long breath.

The intention of Mi Gui was very obvious. After it knew that it could not contaminate Li Daoxuan, it wanted to use the living beings turned into turbidity by the dead people of Puliu Town and use the sea of ​​ghost tactics to drag Li Daoxuan to death.

Li Daoxuan rolled up the butcher knife in his hand and took a look. The blade was already somewhat curled.

After all, too many bones were chopped off... It seems that next time I can't just chop off the head. I won't chop off the bones if I can.

He turned and left the alley. Once a ghost avoids people, it is difficult to meet him, not to mention that Mi Gui is still a blind man.

Using awareness energy is one way, but Li Daoxuan won't use it unless he has to.

Crossed two more alleys.

"Puff-"

what is this sound?
Li Daoxuan stopped and looked at the alley where the sound came from. He remembered that entering that alley was the home of the deceased Blacksmith Liu.

Could it be that there is something weird about his family?
Impossible. Since that old guy Li Peishan chose to attack Liu Kai, he would definitely clean up his house. How could there be anything left behind?

Just when Li Daoxuan wanted to leave, the voice came out again.

In this quiet Puliu Town, it seems particularly clear.

Since he was sure that there was something, Li Daoxuan did not hesitate and walked straight into the alley.

It was surprisingly quiet, and not even the ghost slave was seen. He tightened his knife to kill the pig, pressed down his heart to use [consciousness energy], and walked forward slowly.

The journey was uneventful and he arrived at Liu Tiejiang's house. He was convinced that the sound was indeed coming from here. Only his house was open along the way.

Could it be that Wenmi Gui is here?
Li Dao , and will not lose the opportunity to resist immediately.

"crunch-"

Li Daoxuan opened the door of the room. It was dark inside, and nothing strange happened. He could only vaguely see that things were scattered all over the floor, as if they had been searched countless times.

But right now.

"Boom-"

There was a noise on the stairs. It was the sound of footsteps on the wooden stairs. Someone was coming down from upstairs... No, it was a ghost!
Where did this person come from at this time?
Li Daoxuan hurriedly looked towards the stairs.

"Boom-"

His steps were neither hasty nor slow, and he saw a pair of feet, wearing boots... Li Daoxuan felt relieved immediately.

Because he recognized these boots. The one in Blacksmith Liu's house was the eighth-rate grain eater from Hand Witch City.

Sure enough, following the figure downstairs, it was Zheng Yuan.

However, his current situation is very strange. He is holding only one-third of the red candle left in one hand, guarding it carefully, as if he is dispelling the pollution.

But the direct red candle is clearly extinguished!
"Obviously, after parting ways with me, he also encountered ghosts and even lit the red candle. Otherwise, the candle with half left in it would not have burned so fast."

"It's just how the direct red candle was extinguished...and he couldn't even notice it when I was standing in front of him. He even thought the direct red candle was on. He was obviously contaminated."

Unlike Huang Shiyuan, this eighth-rate grain eater can definitely help, and coming from Hand Witch City, he might have other methods... For example, this direct red candle is very useful.

Li Daoxuan took out the fire seal from his arms and lit the candle for him.

As the first ray of light appeared, Zheng Yuan also stopped, and his dull eyes gradually regained their vitality.

He also saw Li Daoxuan standing in front of him.

"Your candle was actually extinguished just now." Li Daoxuan put away the candle.

Zheng Yuan has experienced a lot of things after all. He said solemnly: "After I was separated from you guys, I met the Wenmi ghost. It wanted to kill me. I couldn't resist its pollution and could only light a candle and leave. Later, Passing through an alley...I don't know why the candle went out."

"Is it possible it's a ghost?"

"impossible."

Zheng Yuan shook his head and said firmly: "Some ghosts are indeed not afraid of this candle, but this is the case with rice ghosts."

When Zheng Yuan spoke, he had already placed Li Daoxuan on an equal footing.

Even without his direct descendant Hongzhudu, he couldn't resist this evil contamination, but Li Daoxuan clearly resisted, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to come here and wake him up.

In addition, he even had ki magic... Zheng Yuan had to take it seriously. Thinking of this, he suddenly asked: "Do you have a way to deal with this Wenmi ghost? The main thing is not to be confused by him."

The burning speed of the red candle is normal, indicating that the ghost is not nearby.

Li Daoxuan nodded, "We can try, but we just can't find him. He wants to avoid us and it's too difficult to find."

Hearing this, Zheng Yuan hesitated for a moment and said, "If you are sure you can handle it, I have a way to attract it."

"any solution?"

Zheng Yuan took out the same candle from his arms, but compared with the red candle, this candle was white.

Holding it in his hand, it was like holding a piece of white bone.

[A living person burns corpse oil to make a candle. This is a "yin candle" made from corpse oil. It is an evil visceral art in the secular world. It seems that the person in front of you has indeed encountered a depraved ghost decorator. They are degenerates walking in the secular world. They only worship the craftsmanship throughout their lives. Your survival points are +3 (green). 】

"This red candle can keep ghosts away, but this white candle can attract ghosts."

Zheng Yuan took the initiative to explain: "Once it is ignited, the rice ghosts will definitely be attracted, but the ghost slaves scattered all over the town will also come."

The two of them are now grasshoppers on a rope. If Li Daoxuan wants to get out alive, he can only cooperate with Zheng Yuan. He said bluntly: "I can resist the pollution of Wenmi ghosts, but if there are too many ghost slaves, .”

"I'll take care of the ghost slave...the eighth-rate [Bather] has a wide range of attack skills."

"it is good!"

Neither of them were hesitant people. After discussing, they came out of the narrow alley and came to a spacious street.

"After the white candle is lit, the red candle must be extinguished."

"It would be great if the ghost slave comes first, but if the Wenmi ghost comes first, then just run away with me."

Don't worry, if the one who comes here first is Wenmi Gui, you can wake up too... Li Daoxuan said "hmm" and didn't directly tell him that his blood can resist pollution. It's better not to expose it if possible.

Zheng Yuan blew out the red candle, and the darkness that had been dispersed surged in like a tide and swallowed the two of them instantly.

Then he lit the white candle.

The faint blue flame rose in the dark night, but it did not dispel the darkness. On the contrary, it seemed to make the darkness more intense.

"despair--"

The sound of feet stepping on the bluestone echoed throughout the small town.

When the dark candle rises, ghosts come to the door.
