Chapter 147
147 Who did this, who did this?
The next morning, Li Chu left lanluo temple and went to the hiding place of God Eye monk outside the forest.
“Did Yingluo come last night?”
“No, I didn’t,”
“Not even once?”
“I haven’t.”
“It seems like Yingluo can’t do it?”
“Probably not.”
“AI.”
“……”
The two of them looked at each other, both feeling a little confused.
From the outside, Li Chu looked no different from an ordinary person, except for his unusually handsome appearance. If he couldn’t hide from those ghosts, it meant that any disguise would be useless.
“Could it be that the ghosts don’t harm people in lanluo temple?” He asked.
God Eye touched his bald head and said, ” “It can’t be. There’s no other place more suitable than this temple, hehe.”
“Or maybe there’s someone controlling the ghosts from behind, so they know how to avoid it.” Li Chu continued.
but even you can’t draw them out, ” God Eye said.”Don’t tell me we can find a real scholar?”
“It’s not impossible,” Li Chu suddenly said.
God Eye waved his hand and said, ” this is a matter of meeting a ghost. It’s not a joke. Even if you and I can guarantee that we can take good care of her, who would dare to believe us?”
Li Chu said slowly,”I have a friend, Yingluo.”
“What?”
“He has a lot of experience in this area.”
……
Deep in the mountains, there was a huge cave.
A young man in a Daoist robe and a giant-like man followed behind him. The two figures walked in one after another.
Although the cave wasn’t dark, it sent chills down one’s spine. This was because there were countless black threads hanging down from both sides of the cave walls. They looked like black hair, but also like rootless willow branches.
As the giant walked, he seemed to be bored, so he pulled on one of the black silk strips. He tugged at it, but it didn’t break.
He was suddenly interested and used a bit of his strength to pull. With a crack, he finally broke one.
However, with just this one strand broken, the surrounding cave walls seemed to be in pain, and an ” ouch! came from somewhere.
The giant was shocked.
“Don’t act rashly in someone else’s house!” Huo Zhuge turned his head back immediately.
“Oh,” The giant stuck out his tongue and followed closely behind him, not daring to move again.
The two of them walked through the cave for a long time before they saw a bright light in front of them. When they walked out, they saw another cave.
He called out the moment he stepped out.
“Junior Huo Zhuge is here to pay his respects!”
A few mountain spirits with leaves on their hair had not fully grown up yet. Hearing the sound, they gathered around and started chirping.
At this moment, a lazy voice came from behind. children, step down. Don’t disturb the honored guest.
On one side of the cave, there were a few extremely thick wooden bulges, as if they were the roots of some tree. However, the roots were so thick and strong, so it was unknown how tall the tree was.
On this smooth root system, there was a bench and a square table neatly placed. On the table were some food and wine.
On the chair, a fat old woman was half lying down. She was dressed in a beautiful green robe, and her unkempt hair was stuck in by who knew how many gold and Jade Hairpins, but it was still a mess. His facial features were rough, and he looked somewhat like a man.
From the looks of it, she was also the owner of this place.
Huo Zhuge lowered his head and smiled humbly, ” “Demon sect junior, I have presumptuously come to visit Granny Liu. How dare you call me an honored guest?”
“Hehe, you’re quite polite, kid.” The old woman sat up and laughed in a sharp and unpleasant voice.
“My cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds in the past hundred years all because Lord Yin Emperor taught me the method of controlling ghosts and turning them into yang. I will always remember the kindness of the demon sect. Moreover, I have a good relationship with your grandmother. We haven’t contacted each other for many years. Now that you’ve come to my house, of course I have to treat you well.”
As he spoke, countless black threads suddenly extended out from the side, their origins unknown. He moved tables and chairs over for the two of them and placed food on the table.
After the items were placed, the silk strips instantly withdrew, as if the items had appeared out of thin air.
The giant looked fun and wanted to grab one to stop it from leaving. Huo Zhuge coughed lightly and he quickly retracted his hand and sat down obediently.
Granny Liu looked at the giant man with interest and asked, which family’s child is he? why does he look a little familiar? ”
“Hehe.” Huo Zhuge chuckled. he’s a gold Bodhisattva. It’s just that Lao Ai has not lived at home since he was young. We grew up together and are as close as brothers.
When the giant heard this, he raised his head and said, ” “Right!”
At the same time, he revealed a bright smile.
“Oh, it’s actually the child of The Guardian King Jin. He’s rather straightforward and interesting.” Laolao Liu laughed again and asked, alright, let’s get straight to the point. Why did you come to find me? ”
Huo Zhuge smiled and said,”grandma, you’re being straightforward. I won’t delay.” I’ve come this time because I’ve received news that someone is going to lanluo temple to prevent the ghostly beings under Laolao from absorbing Yang Qi. Thus, I’ve come to inform you.”
“This is something you don’t know.”
“I kept a ghost outside lanluo temple to absorb the Yang Qi of people for me,” laughed Granny Liu.”I knew that this would happen.” Thus, I hid them very well, and only one Yin soul was allowed to absorb the Yang Qi at a time. I would take turns to go and collect the Yang Qi every month.”
“Even if cultivators come to exorcise the evil, they can only destroy one Yin soul. After a few days of dormancy, they can still attack. At worst, if someone finds some clues and kills them all, they’ll just be some ghosts that won’t be related to me. I can raise them again in ten days to half a month.”
“That’s why everything outside of lanluo temple is very safe. I’ve never worried about it.”
“Like this, Yingluo”
Huo Zhuge pondered for a moment and said straightforwardly, ” “I won’t hide it from granny. That little Daoist who came to exorcise the evil is actually the enemy of my demon sect, Lao Ai.”
“One of my experts died in their temple. I don’t know if he was killed by his monastic robes or by his master. That’s why I’ve been keeping an eye on his movements. This time, seeing him come to Lan Luo temple, I thought of Laolao and wanted to ask Laolao to help deal with him.”
“Hey, you should have said so earlier.” Granny Liu waved her hand. he’s just a little Daoist priest. I’ll just deal with him casually. Why would I need you all to help me? ”
Huo Zhuge said,”this is a little embarrassing, aww.”
“You don’t have to say anything. With my friendship with your grandmother, it wouldn’t be a problem even if you came to me directly for help. Moreover, that little Daoist priest is going to lanluo temple to ruin my business.”
As she spoke, she suddenly stood up. follow me.
“Alright,” he said.
This Granny Liu was also Swift and decisive in her work, leaving as soon as she said so.
After a few words, he brought fire Zhuge and Vajra slave out of the cave and rose up with the wind.
Huo Zhuge formed hand seals and chanted an incantation, following behind with the wind.
The giant couldn’t fly, so he ran on the ground. As he jumped up and down, he didn’t fall behind.
In the blink of an eye, the three of them arrived at the Willow forest outside lanluo temple, in front of the old tree with a deep hole in the tree.
Laolao Liu waved her hands and shouted, ” “Open the door!”
The tree hole did not need anyone to lean in. It expanded by itself and turned into two tall wooden doors with a flash.
“Grandma’s methods are indeed mysterious.” “He can easily create another heavenly abode,” Huo Zhuge praised.
“Not really, it’s just a smokescreen,” “It’s just a small trick of mine. Not many people in the world can find it,” Granny Liu said.
She said with a smile. Before she finished her words, the door in front of her opened, revealing the scene inside.
It was an empty cave.
Only the tree stump and the mirror remained in the cave.
There were a few faint souls floating in the air. They were like ghosts and corpses of ghosts. After the ghosts were destroyed, they might remain in the air for a few days before dissipating.
The smile on Granny Liu’s face instantly disappeared.
With her cultivation, she could feel that there had been an intense collision of Yin Qi here, and then all the yin souls in the Suan nI had died.
He couldn’t help but be angry.
He said that he didn’t care about the life and death of these little spirits, but after all, it was a nest he had painstakingly built.
And,
If there were no two juniors beside her, or if she did not boast just now, she would not have been so angry.
who did this?! Who did this?! Granny Liu roared at the sky.
Huo Zhuge said in a low voice, ” “The little Daoist I’m talking about does have some tricks up his sleeve. Perhaps it was him who did it.”
what? ” Granny Liu didn’t want to believe it. my tree hole is so well-hidden, who could have found it? ”
“If no one finds out, then they’re just killing themselves,” the giant behind him chuckled.
Huo Zhuge glared at him, signaling him not to talk nonsense. He then said, ” the divine arts of the Dao sect are complicated. Everything is possible.
“Hehe.” Granny Liu was so angry that she laughed. alright, then I’ll personally go to lanluo temple to guard it this time. If there are any passers-by, I’ll kill them. We’ll just wait for that little Daoist to come and cause trouble again.
“I’d like to see how powerful his methods are!”
As she laughed, the withered old tree twisted in pain, and the tree body made a squeaking sound!
Huo Zhuge lowered his head, and a bright light flashed in his eyes.
……
“There’s a ghost absorbing Yang Qi? You want me to use my beauty as a honey trap?”
“It’s not a problem if you have to say that, Yingluo.”
Wang longqi looked at Li Chu and God’s eye and fell into deep thought.
“Not bad.” those ghosts aren’t that powerful, ” monk divine eye said. it’s just that there might be someone manipulating them from behind. That’s why they always avoid us. That’s why we want to find a real ordinary person to try it out.”
Wang longqi glanced at him, as if he was worried.
I’ll watch you from afar, ” Li Chu said. if anything happens, I’ll be there in time.
Wang longqi touched his chin, still thinking.
Divine eye monk took out a palm-sized golden Buddha statue and said, ” you can bring this Arhat Dharmakaya with you. Not only will it ensure that your Yang Qi will not be lost, but it can also be taken out at a critical moment. Ordinary ghosts can be killed instantly!
This Buddha statue was painted in gold and was quite heavy. It was obviously an extraordinary Buddhist Dharma artifact.
“Actually, I’m only worried about one thing,” Wang longqi said after taking it.
“What?” The two of them listened carefully.
“Is this yang-sucking ghost a female ghost?” Wang longqi also asked seriously.
“Ah, aww, aww.” God Eye didn’t seem to expect this question. He paused for a moment before he answered, ” “The victims were all men. If the ghost wanted to kill them, it would naturally have to transform into a young woman.”
“Is this female ghost pretty?” Wang longqi asked again.
“……”
Monk God Eye couldn’t figure out what this person was thinking, so he replied after some deliberation, ” “It’s not a matter of whether she’s pretty or not, Yingluo.”
