Xia Xue said that Fengcheng was not far from Jiyang Mountain, it was really close. Luo Guanyi arrived shortly after noon.
The reason why I delayed coming to Zhou's house until sunset was of course out of caution.
But after walking around the city for several times, I sensed a strong yin energy, but there were really no traps... So, am I thinking too much?
Standing outside the gate of the Zhou family, looking at this majestic and astonishing scale of the mansion, Luo Guan somewhat understood why they were unwilling to return to Yuanxia Palace.
How can living under others compare to being free and at ease and being a prince? ! However, things also have pros and cons, such as now.
Without the support of the main sect, the Zhou family may not be able to survive this disaster.
There was a sound of hurried footsteps, and then the closed door of the Zhou family opened in front of them, and a group of people poured out.
Zhou Xu was among them. When he saw Luo Guan, he didn't know if he was used to it. He looked around a few more times and then said, "Dad, this is fellow Taoist Wei Zhuang. On the order of the Lord of the Palace, he came to help my Zhou family." .”
After saying that, he raised his hand to Luo Guan and said, "Fellow Taoist Wei Zhuang, this is the meaning of my father's taboo. I heard that Taoist friend was coming, so I came here to greet you."
Luo Guan nodded, "Thank you, Master Zhou Yuanyi, everyone." His eyes swept over, and his mind felt it. Although he has not noticed anything wrong so far, he is cautious. But not even half a bit.
Zhou Yuanyi cupped his hands and said, "My Taoist friends from Wei Zhuang have come all the way. The Zhou family should have hosted a banquet to entertain us, but now that you know the situation, it is really rude."
Turning around, he stretched out his hand and said, "Fellow Taoist, please come in quickly. Let's drink some tea and make some repairs."
Be respectful in your behavior.
Luo Guandao: "Sorry to bother you."
After a while, in the main hall of the Zhou family, Zhou Yuanyi and several elders of the Zhou family accompanied them, and Zhou Xu personally poured tea for everyone.
Luo Guan took a sip. The aroma of the tea overflowed, and there was even a trace of refreshing breath that nourished the body. He couldn't help but praise, "Good tea!"
Zhou Yuanyi waved his hand, "It's not a compliment from Taoist fellow Wei Zhuang. It's just an old tea tree discovered by the clan in the early years. The annual output is limited. Fortunately, the Zhou family has accumulated some over the years and is preparing to find opportunities to donate." To the Palace Master."
He raised his hand towards Jiyang Mountain and said, "It just so happens that fellow Taoist Wei Zhuang is here today, so please take some back to the mountain. Zhou Xu, go get an extra copy and prepare it for fellow Taoist Wei Zhuang."
Luo Guan thought for a while, but did not refuse, "Then thank you, Master Zhou, for your kindness." He took another sip of tea, put down the tea cup, and made a soft "pop" sound, "Master Zhou, it's getting dark soon, we Let’s talk business first.”
Zhou Yuanyi looked solemn and said, "Okay, after Zhou Xu left, there were some twists and turns. I will tell you about it in detail for the reference of fellow Taoist Wei Zhuang."
Luo Guan nodded, "Please."
"The incident first happened half a month ago. In the morning of that day, a servant was found lying next to the lotus pond. He was still breathing and alive, but his soul was nowhere to be found. The Zhou family initially thought that there was something evil. I immediately sent people to investigate, but other than a few traces of Yin Qi remaining, no clues were found."
"I originally thought it was the evil spirit. After I succeeded, I knew I would be exposed, so I escaped early. However, in the next few days, one after another, the souls of the servants were taken away and turned into living bodies, and the number increased rapidly. The Zhou family was about to I increased the intensity of the investigation by several levels, and finally found some clues that the soul seeker was actually an evil ghost, and he was hiding under the lotus pond!"
Hearing this, Luo Guan raised his eyebrows and said, "Find the hiding place of the evil ghost. With the cultivation level of the Zhou family, what can you do?"
Zhou Yuanyi smiled bitterly, "I'm not afraid of the jokes of fellow Taoist friends from Wei Zhuang. Although the Zhou family discovered that it was an evil ghost seeking its soul and found its hiding place, they never forced it out. Even from the beginning to the end, the evil ghost
No one has ever seen what it looks like. "
"It has strange magical powers and has inexplicable ways to hide. It is hard to guard against. It was forced to do so. It even asked someone to use specially refined Yin-burning fire oil to light up the entire lotus pond. However, the flames were annihilated by the Yin energy as soon as they started. They didn't even look at it. What do you know, the three fellow Taoists who came to help out that day already had two dead and one wounded!"
In the hall, the rest of the Zhou family nodded.
"exactly."
「
My Zhou family is really forced to the point of desperation. "
"Please also ask Fellow Taoist Wei Zhuang to help us resolve this disaster!"
As he spoke, there was still lingering fear on his face.
Luo Guan frowned. The person who was invited by Zhou Yuanyi must not be a mediocre person, but at least had the cultivation level of the Infinite Realm. He actually played with the three of them in the palm of his hand without even showing his face. This evil ghost did have some skills.
He thought for a while and said, "Since the evil ghost is so difficult to deal with and is hiding in the lotus pond, why doesn't Master Zhou take his clan members and move to another place for the time being?"
Zhou Yuanyi sighed, "I have tried it before, but the result was even worse. Everyone who was sent out of the Zhou family's house was seduced by evil spirits overnight, and even their bodies were bitten and devoured. The end was terrible. "
He hesitated for a moment, then continued: "I suspect that this evil ghost deliberately forced the Zhou family to stay in this house, but I don't know why." After finishing speaking, , Zhou Yuanyi looked at Zhou Xu again, and said, "Show the protective jade you are wearing to Fellow Taoist Wei Zhuang."
Zhou Xu said yes and took out the put away Yujue again.
Luo Guan could tell at a glance that this object had the effect of driving away evil spirits and avoiding disasters, but now it was invaded by strange and evil forces and was on the verge of collapse.
"How could he have such magical powers? Fellow Daoist Zhou Xu escaped from Fengcheng to ask for help, but he was still targeted by evil spirits. It seemed like a curse that locked the Zhou family."
Zhou Yuanyi said: "That's right. Now, nearly half of the direct bloodline members of my Zhou family have had their souls taken away."
He stood up and bowed respectfully, "Fellow Taoist Wei Zhuang, I am really at my wits' end, so I ask you to help me save the Zhou family. This great kindness and virtue will never be forgotten by the Zhou family!"
Luo Guandao: "Master Zhou, please get up. Since Wei has come to Fengcheng, he will go all out." He raised his head and glanced at the sky. The sunset left only the last few red clouds. The place where the Zhou family's mansion is located was full of gloom. Begin to roll and rise.
It was difficult for ordinary people to perceive, but in his eyes, it was extremely clear. It seems that the evil ghost hiding in the lotus pond is about to come out.
Luo Guan thought about it for a while, then stood up and said, "Master Zhou, please send someone to take Wei to the lotus pond to have a look, maybe we can learn something."
"This..." Zhou Yuanyi hesitated and said, "I dare not hide it from fellow Taoist Wei Zhuang. The evil ghost will crawl out of the lotus pond every sunset. You may be in danger if you go there now."
Luo Guan waved his hand, "It doesn't matter, Wei is a bit impatient and doesn't like waiting for others... Well, it's the same with ghosts, so you should take the initiative to find it."
Zhou Yuanyi gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice, "In that case, I will personally take fellow Taoist Wei Zhuang over there, and together with the fellow Taoist, we will deal with this evil spirit!"
In the hall, the faces of the Zhou family members changed slightly.
"Master, the women, children, old and weak are all in the ancestral hall now. You are gone...what will they do?"
"Yes, that evil ghost has no trace of it. We haven't found out yet how it left... If it avoids you two, where the ancestral hall is, wouldn't it be allowed to wreak havoc."
"No, no, it's better to gather everyone in the ancestral hall and wait for the evil spirit to come."
Zhou Yuanyi also showed hesitation when he heard this.
Luo Guan said calmly: "It doesn't matter. The head of the Zhou family will just stay. All we need to do is find someone to guide Wei." As he spoke, he glanced out of the corner of his eye.
Yes, somewhere in the Zhou family's mansion.
Now, in the state of "Nine Songs of the Divine Soul", Luo Guan perceives the heaven and earth to be clear and transparent, and can find the hiding place of evil ghosts even if there is no one to guide him. But now, the situation is not yet clear, so be careful and don't expose yourself too much.
[An app that has been running stably for many years, comparable to the old book-chasing tool, used by all old bookworms.
He was pale, but under the eyes of everyone, he still bravely agreed.
Luo Guan said calmly: "Then let's go."
Get up and go out, and leave this place under the leadership of the servant.
As soon as the back figure disappeared, someone appeared in the hall and couldn't help but said: "This fellow Taoist from Wei Zhuang is quite courageous. I wonder how strong this person is?"
"Oh, I'm just afraid. It's those people who have a good eye but a low skill. They only rely on their good background and don't know the dangers of the world."
"However, I think the head of the family respects this person quite a bit... Could it be that you know something?" someone else said.
Suddenly, all eyes turned to him.
Zhou Xu was also puzzled. With his father's cultivation, he had few opponents in the Great Tribulation Realm. He had never seen him treat people with such respect.
Is it just because of Wei Zhuang's identity?
Facing everyone's eyes, Zhou Yuanyi glanced in the direction Luo Guan left and lowered his voice, "Humph, what do you know? This Taoist fellow from Wei Zhuang is definitely not an ordinary person!"
He paused and continued: "Not long ago, a friend who traveled far away came back and told me some things he had heard. If I am correct, this Taoist friend from Wei Zhuang was involved."
"This person is indeed not a monk in the Great Tribulation Realm. It even feels to me... well, he has not even entered the Infinite Realm, but he once killed a big shot with one sword at the birthday banquet of a certain big shot on Tianling Island. Disaster!"
Everyone's eyes widened and they exclaimed.
"What? It's not the Great Tribulation Realm, not even the Infinite Realm, but it can kill a great calamity with one sword? I'm afraid this is some kind of rumor!"
"That's right, I have never heard of such a thing, let alone seen it."
"Master, are you mistaken?"
Seeing that everyone didn't believe it, Wei Yuanyi said in a deep voice: "The world is so big, how many geniuses are there? Compared with you and me, we are just frogs at the bottom of a well."
"As for whether it is yes or no, I think the results will be available soon."
Now, it's getting dark.
Here, Wei Yuanyi summoned everyone in the house to the ancestral hall, and he and the strong men of the clan guarded the outside.
On the other side, Luo Guan, led by his servants, had arrived at the lotus pond not far away where the evil ghost was hiding.
At this moment, the sky is getting darker, the yin energy is rising, causing the fog to emerge, and the scenery in the sight becomes blurry.
The servant of the Zhou family who was leading the way turned paler and trembling, "Sir... sir... just ahead... right ahead is... the lotus pond..."
It seemed that if he got any closer, he would be scared to death before the evil spirit showed up.
Luo Guan also understood and waved his hand, "Just bring it here, you can go back."
"Thank you, sir, thank you, sir!" The servant saluted repeatedly, turned around and trotted away.
Soon, Luo Guan was the only one left here.
Looking forward, there is a faint sound of water flowing, and the lotus pond is indeed close in front of us.
