Soul Ferry: My master is Uncle Jiu

Chapter 323 Ah? Sister, are you calling me?

A deserted inn.

It didn’t feel that scary during the day, but when night fell and the mountain wind blew, the abandoned inn was like a monster lurking in the mountains, opening its bloody mouth and waiting for its prey to come to it.

“Yu!!!”

A series of rapid horse hooves sounded. Ning Caichen, who had been traveling all day, saw the abandoned inn in front of him and reflexively pulled the reins to stop the horse.

"No way? Last time it was a temple in the wilderness, this time it's a hotel in the wilderness?"

Recalling the experience in Lanruo Temple, although it was a close call, Ning Caichen understood that some things are really something you have to believe until you find out. So, how about going in and staying overnight?

Ning Caichen looked up at the night sky. There were lightning and thunder. In addition, there was no telling whether there were wolves, tigers or leopards in the wilderness. It was too dangerous to walk alone at night.

“I can’t win the prize every time, right?”

At this moment, the sound of soil turning was heard, causing Ning Caichen to immediately grab the reins and control the horse to turn around.

Then he vaguely saw the mud on the muddy road they came from bulging and surging and quickly approaching him, scaring him so much that his face turned pale.

"Oh my god!"

"Are the ghosts here so fierce? They can't wait to show up before I even enter?"

"You are the devil!"

Ning Caichen, who was about to gallop on his horse, heard a voice coming from the soil and paused. Then he saw a young man covered in dust and dirt crawling out of the mud in front of him.

To be honest, she is a little uglier than him.

"you are human?"

"You are not human!"

"Then why don't you just walk on the road and crawl out of the ground? It's late at night and scaring people will kill them."

After finding out that the other person was really a human, Ning Caichen complained, and he was almost scared to death.

Seeing Ning Caichen, the villain who complained first, Zhiqiu Yiye was so angry that he laughed. He walked over aggressively and snatched the reins from Ning Caichen's hand.

"Hey, hey, hey, how could you steal someone else's horse?"

“This is my horse!”

"You stole my horse, and made me chase you underground for a whole day and eat dirt. Now you still don't admit it, I'll beat you up!"

"Still coming down?"

Ning Caichen, whose reins were accidentally snatched away, naturally would not be coaxed off the horse without a few words. He held on to the saddle tightly and asked, "How can you prove that this horse is yours? When I rode away this morning, I didn't see you nearby."

"How dare you say that? You took my horse away while I was squatting in the toilet, leaving me no time to clean my butt."

"Besides, this is originally my horse, why should I prove it to you?"

"Hurry up, come down to me."

Zhiqiu Yiye, who was full of anger, pulled Ning Caichen off the horse without saying a word, and then led the horse towards the abandoned inn.

"Luckily I caught up with your master, otherwise your silly horse would have been abducted."

"Remember to be smarter next time. Don't let anyone take you away, okay?"

The horse, being pointed at by its owner, seemed to realize its mistake and rubbed Zhiqiu Yiye with its huge head.

Ning Caichen, who originally wanted to rush up to argue, suddenly felt embarrassed when he saw this scene, as if the other party was really the owner of the horse.

He said, how could the old man be so magical?

Seeing that the other party wanted to stay in this deserted inn, he hurriedly followed him and kindly reminded him: "Brother, there may be dirty things in here, why don't we walk together at night."

"Dirty things? Oh, it seems that you, a thief scholar, know a lot of things." Zhiqiu Yiye looked at Ning Caichen in surprise.

Ning Caichen was embarrassed to be called a thief and quickly apologized, "Brother, I really didn't mean it. I thought someone arranged it for me."

"Enough, enough, stop talking so much." Hearing Ning Caichen buzzing all the time, Zhiqiu Yiye didn't want to listen to any explanation. He just wanted to have a good rest now, but he was exhausted.

Ning Caichen thought the other party didn't believe him, so he quickly stopped him and said, "Brother, there might really be something dirty!"

Zhiqiu Yiye looked at Ning Caichen who was blocking his way and said unhappily, "Do you think I don't know? This place is full of evil spirits. Even a fool would know there are dirty things."

Ning Caichen heard this and asked: "Then why are you still going?"

"Oh, it's unlucky for it to meet me, Zhiqiu Yiye, today."

"You know the Kunlun sect, right? The kind that catches monsters. I am a disciple of the Kunlun sect."

After tying the reins to the big tree at the door, Zhiqiu Yiye pushed Ning Caichen aside and walked in with a swagger.

"A disciple of Kunlun Sect? Isn't that a Taoist priest?" Ning Caichen was delighted when he heard that, so he quickly followed.

"Brother, wait for me."

"Why are you following me?"

"It's safer to follow you."

Looking at Ning Caichen who was following behind him like a dog-skin plaster, Zhiqiu Yiye was powerless to complain, what a shameless scholar, he just found a bodyguard for free, right?

"Forget it. I won't bother with you. Just follow me closely, or I won't be able to take care of you no matter what happens next."

"Row."

Ning Caichen happily agreed.

Looking at the tightly closed door of the inn, Zhiqiu Yiye wanted to push it open, but he didn't expect that as soon as he exerted a little force, the entire door panel fell inside.

Bang!
The shrill sound echoed in the quiet inn.

There was a coffin in the inn, and the thing inside was awakened, and its dark green pupils opened.

It turned out that this was not an inn for ordinary people to stay in, but an inn for zombies to rest for passing corpse drivers.

"Hey, are people so rude nowadays? Can you ask if there is anyone inside before coming in?"

An Yan, who was covered in dust stirred up by the door panel, was a little speechless. What had he done to offend anyone? The door panel was less than 20 centimeters away from him and he was almost hit.

Zhiqiu Yiye, who had just walked in, was startled when he heard the voice. Then he looked inside and found a very handsome young man sitting cross-legged on the ground.

He couldn't help but wonder, what happened today?
First, I met a scholar who was only slightly less good-looking than me, and now I meet someone who is more handsome than me.

Although he was very unwilling, he had to admit that the other party was indeed a little more handsome than him.

Well, just a little bit really.

"Excuse me, I saw that there was no light or sound in this inn, and I thought there was no one there."

Although Zhiqiu Yiye was a little surprised by the behavior of the person in front of him, he did almost hurt someone, so he said sorry.

"Hey! Why is it you, Brother An? Last time at Lanruo Temple, I didn't have the chance to thank you for the yellow talisman you gave me."

Ning Caichen, who was following behind Zhiqiu Yiye, walked around and when he saw An Yan sitting cross-legged on the ground, he immediately became excited.

It's stable tonight.

"Brother Ning? Why are you here?"

When An Yan saw Ning Caichen, he was also stunned. Then he looked at the person next to him with a strange expression. This must be Zhiqiu Yiye.

"Brother An, you don't know, this is how long a piece of cloth is."

"That's fine, no need to say more, I understand."

Recalling the plot of A Chinese Ghost Story 2, An Yan already understood that the other party had just escaped from prison. When Zhiqiu Yiye heard the word "yellow talisman", he was slightly surprised and said, "You are also a Taoist priest? I am Zhiqiu Yiye, a disciple of Kunlun Sect."

An Yan, who knew that this world was also integrated with the Legend of Shushan, asked with great interest: "An Yan from Maoshan Sect, I wonder if you are talking about the Kunlun Sect that only has two masters and apprentices, a man and a woman?"

"Ah? No, no, it's just the same name." Zhiqiu Yiye waved his hands quickly. He had heard a little about the Kunlun Sect that An Yan mentioned, but it was much more powerful than his own sect.

At the same time, when he learned that An Yan was a top disciple of the Maoshan Sect, he felt envious again, because that was a famous and large sect.

The sect he belongs to has only the name of Kunlun but not the reality of Kunlun.

This was not the first time he had persuaded his master to change his name, otherwise he was afraid that he would be beaten to death by the enemies of the True Kunlun Sect when he was out in the world.

Unfortunately, his master insisted that it would be easier to recruit people by using the name of a big sect.

An Yan was not surprised to hear that they really had the same name. After all, the Kunlun Sect had been destroyed by the old monster Youquan, and now only the Xuantian Sect was left.

"An Yan, you also felt that there was a demonic aura in this corpse-driving inn, so you came here specifically to get rid of it?" Zhiqiu Yiye didn't want to say much about his own sect, so he turned to ask about the problems of this corpse-driving inn.

"Uh, yes." Seeing that Zhiqiu Yiye had misunderstood, An Yan did not explain and just agreed, "I'm waiting for it to show up."

An Yan had already noticed the corpse demon hiding in the corpse-driving inn. It was just a corpse demon in the realm of refining spirit and returning to emptiness. He had originally planned to destroy it after he had comprehended Black Stone and left.

"That's good. I can sleep well tonight." Ning Caichen said happily.

Zhiqiu Yiye, who originally wanted to find the source of the evil spirit right away, became less anxious when he saw An Yan was confident.

Although the evil spirit was strong, it was not to the point where he could not deal with it.

What's more, he didn't want to lose face in front of his peers.

No one else is in a hurry, so if he is, wouldn’t it be very embarrassing?

"Then I'll wait with you while I go find some wood to start a fire."

"let me help you."

Seeing Zhiqiu Yiye and Ning Caichen busying themselves, An Yan could only say that it was fate. He then cast a small cleaning spell on himself to clear away all the dust.

However, I don’t know if today is a good day.

While Zhiqiu Yiye was busy lighting the fire, a new wave of people came to the corpse-carrying inn, which usually had no one for ten days or half a month.

They were all wrapped tightly, wearing bamboo hats and holding sharp swords.

chap!
Sparks from the flint fell on the dry weeds, and the fire was bright.

The two groups stared at each other.

These people don't look like good people at all!
Ning Caichen silently held the package tightly, ready to run away at the slightest sign of trouble, so as not to hold Brother An and the others back.

The two sisters Fu Qingfeng and Fu Yuechi, who were in the lead, didn't expect that there were other people here. They originally wanted to ambush here to rescue people.

"Miss, what should we do now?"

The subordinates asked Fu Qingfeng in a low voice, among these people, Fu Qingfeng, as the eldest daughter of the Fu family, was the one in charge.

Looking at An Yan and Zhi Qiu Yiye, Fu Qingfeng hesitated. They didn't look like bad guys, but it was hard to say about the bearded man next to them.

She hesitated and asked her sister in a low voice, "Yuechi, what do you think?"

"I want the one in white!"

"."

When Fu Qingfeng saw that his sister was actually becoming infatuated with her again, he was speechless.

Although the white dress looks the best and she likes it very much, she can't lose all her girlish modesty.

"Fu Yuechi!"

"Ah? Sister, are you calling me?"

Feeling the resentment coming from his sister beside him, Fu Yuechi shuddered and finally came to his senses, saying in a daze.

Fu Qingfeng was speechless again.

They thought their voices were quiet, but An Yan heard them clearly and couldn't help but laugh.

These two sisters are so funny.

"Everyone, if you have nothing else to do, please leave quickly. There are monsters here, and you are not capable of dealing with them."

An Yan interrupted the funny conversation between the two sisters.

"You want a monster? Then why don't you leave?"

Fu Qingfeng didn't believe An Yan's words and asked back.

"Since you don't believe it, you can just stay."

"It's coming out soon."

An Yan realized that the corpse demon had begun to move, so he didn't waste any time explaining. After all, he would know the truth when it came out.

Ning Caichen also echoed at this time: "What Brother An said is true. He is a Taoist priest who specializes in catching ghosts."

"And Brother Zhiqiu is the same."

Seeing Fu Qingfeng and Fu Yuechi looking at him, Zhiqiu Yiye straightened his chest. With his rich experience, he knew.

Just by looking at their eyes, you can tell that the two people in front of you are beautiful women.

Therefore, in order to get the priority in mating, he naturally wanted to imitate the peacock and spread his feathers to attract the attention of the two.

Unfortunately, with such a good example before them, the two of them just glanced at Zhiqiu Yiye and then turned their gaze back to An Yan.

Zhiqiu Yiye felt discouraged when he saw this. It was over, there was no hope.

Seeing this, Fu Qingfeng realized that wasting time like this was not a solution, so he chose a compromise.

"I will take some people to set up traps outside, and you will take some people to ambush in the inn. We will cooperate with each other later."

The imperial escort team's attention was attracted by the three people in front of them, and they might relax their vigilance around them. This might be an opportunity.

She didn't take An Yan's words to heart. They were numerous and powerful, and any monster could be killed with one sword from each of them.

When he heard that he was staying in the inn, Fu Yuechi's eyes lit up and he nodded repeatedly.

"Okay, sister, leave the inn to me."

"Brother, come with me."

Fu Yuechi led a group of people into the inn and asked them to ambush on the second floor. She squatted at the stairs, staring at An Yan's back.

It's not that she's not reserved, but it's the first time in her life that she's seen a man so handsome.

Moreover, there was an ethereal and otherworldly aura about the other person, which made her feel very comfortable and she subconsciously wanted to get closer.

This is the immortal aura. Even if An Yan restrained his aura, there is still a difference between immortals and mortals. Just sitting there, he would involuntarily attract people's attention.

Even Zhiqiu Yiye was like this. If it were any other time, how could he dare to sit so close to a stranger he met in the wilderness?

It's all subconscious behavior.

Seeing those people running in, Zhiqiu Yiye said to An Yan with some concern: "An Yan, do we really not need to stop them? That thing is quite fierce!"

"Don't worry, with me here, that little evildoer won't be able to cause any trouble."

An Yan smiled calmly, and that look made people subconsciously convinced.
