After walking four hundred miles east, Chen Ke and the others came to a new big city. Chen Ke had passed by this big city before and didn't feel anything at that time. But when he returned this time, Chen Ke understood.
It turns out that the reason why this family wears white linen is not because they like it, but because the city is invaded by ghosts.
A city that is invaded once will not be attacked a second time until a long time later. Therefore, the city is temporarily safe and has regained its former vitality.
Each city is far apart, and it is very dangerous to escape from one city to another. It is easy to encounter wild ghosts in the wild.
These wild ghosts are not like the evil ghosts in Senluo Palace, who follow the rules and only attack at night. They will also appear in the depths of the thick fog during the day, specifically hunting down some living people who go out.
Especially in some mountain forests, dense woods block the sky and the sun, and many pedestrians passing by can easily be eaten by wild ghosts hiding in the woods.
It is precisely because the wilderness is more dangerous that some big cities would rather suffer an evil ghost attack than flee out of the city.
"This place is under attack!"
As soon as Wan Ying walked in and saw the familiar sad atmosphere, she knew that this place had already experienced an evil ghost attack. Without a powerful practitioner like Chen Ke, it was doomed to suffer great losses.
Everyone had a sad look on their face, but they suppressed a smile. Life must go on and we can’t always be sad. Some people even experienced the pain of their whole family being devoured by evil spirits, and became numb, huddled in a corner of the city, and drank all day long to drown their sorrows.
Chen Ke and the others found an inn and waited for the night to pass.
"Master, let me give you water to wash your feet."
Wan Ying came in with a basin of hot water and said to Chen Ke with a smile.
Chen Ke said: "Let it go, washing feet is already a dispensable thing for us practitioners. We have spiritual energy to protect our bodies, which is dust-free and dirt-free, so we don't need to clean anything."
Wan Ying also wanted to take off Chen Ke's boots, but Chen Ke refused. He said, "You are my disciple, not my slave. You don't need to serve me."
"But this is all I can do for you." Wan Ying said eagerly.
"When you succeed in cultivation, you will help me." Chen Ke said.
Wan Ying could only nod and left Chen Ke's room in three steps.
Chen Ke took off his shoes and began to soak his feet. It seemed that after entering the Daoji realm, Chen Ke had never soaked his feet. Feeling the warm water scalding back and forth on his feet, Chen Ke lay on the bed and enjoyed Feel the comfort of this moment.
Wanying returned to the room, sat cross-legged, and began to meditate.
Drowsily, Wanying closed her eyes and fell asleep.
"This is where?"
Wan Ying opened her eyes and saw a dark house in front of her.
"Sakura, run away!"
A horrified scream came from Wan Ying's left side. Wan Ying turned her head and looked over. A figure hidden deep in her memory that was almost blurred ran towards her.
"Father!"
Wan Ying exclaimed, her eyes a little moist.
"Come on, the evil spirit is coming!"
Her father flew to Wan Ying's side, grabbed her arm and fled outside. Behind them, several ferocious-looking evil spirits were chasing them.
"Is this?" Wan Ying's expression suddenly changed from dazed to sober.
This was the scene when her family was destroyed, and she returned to that day. Her body trembled a little and she ran away with her father.
The evil ghost behind him kept chasing him. My father was exhausted and his spiritual power was almost exhausted. Finally, he was overtaken by an extremely fast evil ghost. The evil spirit hit my father on the back, and he vomited blood and fell forward.
Wan Ying was also pulled forward by this force.
"Pfft!"
The evil ghosts behind them caught up with them. One evil ghost flew to his father's side and took out his heart with one palm.
"Father! No!"
Wan Ying exclaimed, tears instantly falling down her face.
When Chen Ke heard Wan Ying's soft call, he immediately sat up from the bed. A gust of wind blew the curtains, and Chen Ke, who was washing his feet, had disappeared.
"what happened?"
Chen Ke had already dressed and came to Wan Ying's room. Wan Ying sat cross-legged on the bed, but her eyes were closed and her brows were furrowed, as if she had fallen into some terrible nightmare.
Hearing Chen Ke's voice, Sun Donglai also came from the room next to him. When he saw Wan Ying's appearance, he was shocked and said: "It's the art of dreaming!"
Chen Ke said: "Since it is a technique to enter dreams, just break it."
Sun Donglai nodded, condensing Taoist skills in his hands, and prepared to pull Wanying out of her dream.
This kind of dreaming technique makes it difficult to wake up a person who is trapped in a dream. Even if she can hear your words, she cannot come out of the dream.
Sun Donglai pointed his finger at Wanying's eyebrows and used Taoist magic to enter Wanying's dream. The next moment, Sun Donglai spit out a mouthful of Yin body blood.
He said to Chen Ke with an ugly face: "Fellow Taoist, the Nightmare Ghost King of Senluo Palace, I was almost captured by him in my dream!"
This is Wanying's dream. Except for Wanying, anyone who enters her dream will be really hurt if they are hurt.
Sun Donglai wanted to pull Wan Ying out of her dream, but he didn't expect that the evil ghost that appeared in Wan Ying's dream was not an ordinary evil ghost, but the very mysterious Nightmare Ghost King of Senluo Palace.
"Can't you wake her up?" Chen Ke looked at Sun Donglai and asked.
Sun Donglai immediately said: "My cultivation is too weak and I am no match for the Nightmare Ghost King. Fellow Taoist, you should take action yourself."
Chen Ke said: "I can't master the art of entering dreams, how can I go to her dream."
Sun Donglai said: "You go to sleep first, and I will enter your dream. I will take your dream and merge it with Miss Wanying's dream."
"good!"
Chen Ke nodded, sat on a chair nearby, closed his eyes, and let himself fall into sleep. Before he fell asleep, he took out the transparent sword from the Qiankun bag and used it to protect them.
"Fellow Taoist, follow me!"
In the sea of fire, Sun Donglai waited for Chen Ke to relax and saw the big flag covering the sky again, but time was running out and they needed to rescue Wan Ying first.
Sun Donglai pulled Chen Ke forward, and the scene around them flashed. They arrived at Danyu City. It was very dark, but there were many evil ghosts around, constantly devouring living people.
"Bang!"
A figure was knocked out and hit the wall, vomiting blood from the mouth.
When Chen Ke saw it was Wan Ying, he was about to go over and pull her out of her dream.
Sun Donglai stopped Chen Ke and said, "Fellow Taoist, this is Wanying's dream. No matter how serious she is injured in the dream, there will be no problems. Let's wait and see. I guess it's the Nightmare Ghost King who's coming. His elusive figure is difficult to catch, we can use Wan Ying's dream to deal with him!"
Chen Ke said: "This plan works!"
The two of them hid in the darkness, waiting for the evil spirit who plotted against Wan Ying to appear.
Wanying struggled to get up from the ground. She felt very uncomfortable, with severe pain all over her body and a feeling of tightness in her chest. She felt that the bones in her chest seemed to be broken. The waves of pain made her feel a little dazed.
"Isn't this a dream? Why do I feel pain? Is such a real pain really a dream?" Wan Ying began to have doubts and looked around, but regardless of whether it was a dream or not, she had lost her father and could not lose her again. Mother.
Even if it was just a dream, she couldn't watch her mother being eaten alive by those evil spirits.
"Fuck them all!"
Wan Ying pulled out the mysterious sword in her hand, entered the magnificent mansion, and killed a big ghost with one sword.
The big ghost snorted softly, and knocked Wan Ying away again with one breath. Wan Ying flew out of the door and smashed against the wall nearby.
"ah!"
Wanying got up, rushed in again, and was knocked out again.
"Mother, mother!"
Wan Ying saw her mother's hand being grabbed by an evil spirit. The evil spirit opened its mouth and was about to bite Wan Ying's mother.
"Master, save my mother, save my mother, Master - wu wu..." Wan Ying lay on the ground with all her bones broken. She cried feebly, begging for the impossible person to appear.
Chen Ke took a step forward, and Sun Donglai wanted to stop him. Sun Donglai felt that the nightmare ghost king was about to come out, and if he took action now, he would be aroused.
Chen Ke pushed Sun Donglai's hand away and strode forward.
"If someone had appeared in front of me like this, I think some things would not have happened." Chen Ke was a little regretful.
Although this place is a dream, Chen Ke can make Wanying have a sweet dream instead of a nightmare.
boom!
A burst of fire shot up into the sky, and all the evil spirits in the mansion died under the flames.
From the depths of the raging fire, a man walked out. He wore a cyan mask and stood in front of Wan Ying.
"Master...Master!"
Wanying's eyes widened, her face full of disbelief. This was a dream of hers, or a dream from the past. How could the master come out!
"Little girl, regrets always accompany you throughout your life, but when you meet me, you will have a lot less regrets."
Chen Ke smiled and rubbed Wan Ying's head. The spiritual power merged into Wan Ying's body and repaired her injuries.
Wanying stood up and pinched her arm. It hurt. It didn't feel like a dream!
"Is this a dream?"
Wan Ying asked blankly.
"Yes!" Chen Ke smiled, his green face turned into a smiling face, and he nodded.
"How did Master enter my dream?" Wan Ying asked in surprise.
"Because there is an evil ghost in your dream." Chen Ke looked at Wan Ying's mother and asked with a smile: "Am I inviting you, or are you showing up on your own initiative?"
"Mother, she... how is that possible!" Wan Ying looked at her blood-stained mother in surprise. She had just told herself to run quickly.
"I don't know what you are talking about, who are you?" Wan Ying's mother looked at Chen Ke with a look of horror on her face, worried that Chen Ke was an evil ghost: "Wan Ying, come here quickly, he may be an evil ghost .”
"Haha, don't think in your dream that you are the only one who is invincible!" Chen Ke waved his hand, and a wisp of flames shot toward Wan Ying's mother.
Wan Ying's mother seemed to be able to feel the terror of this flame and disappeared directly.
"Master, mother!" Wan Ying was stunned.
