When they suddenly heard the sound, the brothers and sisters were startled.
Fortunately, Huo Chongxiao reacted quickly. When he saw the black energy forced out by the magic formula, he immediately drew his sword to block it. Bai Mengjin rushed over and pulled Yue Yunqiao behind him in time.
The black energy was defeated by the sword energy.
Yue Yunqiao was in shock and unconsciously grabbed Bai Mengjin's sleeve: "What, what is this?"
"Ghost." Huo Chongxiao was frightened for a while.
A ghost is a vicious spirit formed by a person's soul being lost in his mind after he is harmed by a monster. This is what is meant by the so-called "acting as a talisman to the tiger".
This evil spirit is very powerful, and its existence is hidden. If it hadn't been forced to reveal itself, they might not have noticed that Yue Yunqiao was possessed.
Yue Yunqiao only has Qi refining skills. This time she came out with him to see the world. If she was really possessed, her soul might be harmed, and the consequences would be disastrous!
Thinking of this, Huo Chongxiao looked at the kindhearted person with gratitude: "Thank you, girl, for taking the initiative... uh..."
Why is such a little girl wandering on the street in the middle of the night?
Seeing his expression, Bai Mengjin felt relieved.
This kid really doesn't recognize her!
Huo Chongxiao came to his senses and said apologetically: "I'm sorry. I am Huo Chongxiao, a disciple of Danxia Palace. I wonder what I call this girl?"
"My surname is Bai, and I am the second in my family."
"Are you from the Bai family?"
After receiving a positive answer, Huo Chongxiao smiled: "It turns out he is one of our own."
The Bai family is an affiliated family of Danxia Palace. It is protected and driven by it, and it is indeed considered one of its own.
The three of them exchanged names, and Yue Yunqiao pulled her and said affectionately: "Miss Bai, thank you just now. If it weren't for you, I would be miserable!"
When Bai Mengjin first entered Danxia Palace, he had a good relationship with Yue Yunqiao. Suddenly seeing her alive, he missed her very much and replied with a smile: "Fairy Yue, you're welcome, it just happened to me."
"Oh, we're all family members, so don't call me fairy. I'm a little older than you, so why not call me senior sister!"
She thought that since she was a member of the Bai family, she would definitely visit Danxia Palace in the future, so it would be okay to call her in advance.
Bai Mengjin pretended to hesitate and quickly agreed.
It's easier to build relationships when you're called someone close, isn't it?
After they finished speaking, Huo Chongxiao asked with concern: "Miss Bai, why are you out here alone in the middle of the night? Are you in trouble?"
Facing Huo Chongxiao in front of him, Bai Mengjin felt nostalgic. Once upon a time, he was also an enthusiastic person, unlike later when he devoted himself to the cause of exterminating demons and ignored other things. It's just that Yue Yunqiao's death was a huge blow to him.
She rolled her eyes and looked embarrassed: "I..."
Seeing her pitiful look, Yue Yunqiao immediately patted her chest: "If you have anything to say, just tell me. As long as we can help, we will definitely help you."
Bai Mengjin lowered his head and whispered: "It's not a big deal. It's just that I had a little conflict with my elder brother in school today and I didn't dare to go back..."
What's this? Yue Yunqiao, who had been favored since childhood, couldn't understand: "You are so well-behaved, and the conflict must be your elder brother's fault. If you want to punish him, you must punish him. What are you afraid of?"
Huo Chongxiao heard something. He gave her a hand and said, "Junior sister, each family's situation is different and we cannot generalize."
Then he turned around and said, "Miss Bai, why don't we go back with you? You have helped us a lot, and it is reasonable for us to come and say thank you. For our sake, maybe the elders of your house will not I’ll punish you.”
"Is that okay?" Bai Mengjin was surprised at first, but then quickly stopped laughing, "Isn't this good? You still have things to do."
"It's okay, it's not enough time."
Bai Mengjin still shook his head and said considerately: "You have just discovered the ghost, and it is likely that you were sensed by the monster. If I delay the time, maybe it will delay the big event."
When Yue Yunqiao heard that it made sense, she went to see her senior brother.
Huo Chongxiao thought for a while and asked her: "If not, will Miss Bai be with us? If we are lucky and find important clues, even if we have made a meritorious service, the elders of your house will not be able to worry about the past."
"This is a good idea!" Yue Yunqiao clapped her hands, "You can see ghosts, which shows that you are very sensitive to evil spirits. With your help, we can get twice the result with half the effort."
Bai Mengjin smiled: "Really? I won't drag you down, right?"
"My senior brother is here, what are you afraid of?" Yue Yunqiao encouraged her, "If you have made meritorious service, we will report it to you. When you take part in the entrance examination in the future, you will be admitted first. How great! Senior brother, do you think so? ?”
Huo Chongxiao nodded. The rating of this mission is not high. Bai Mengjin sees that his cultivation level is not bad. Since he brought Yue Yunqiao with him, he is not afraid of having her too.
Bai Mengjin held Yue Yunqiao's hand gratefully: "Thank you, I will try my best to help."
She felt happy. She had seen Huo Chongxiao shouting and killing so many times that she was really not used to him being so easy to deceive.
The three of them got back to business.
Huo Chongxiao collected the remaining evil energy on the talisman paper, destroyed the soul summoning array on the ground, and sighed: "Da Ya has been killed. I pity her mother."
Bai Mengjin asked: "When did monsters appear in Qingyun City? I didn't even hear about it."
"We received a report from a demon hunter last month." Yue Yunqiao replied, "That person found five or six cases, and the earliest one disappeared three months ago. Considering that Qingyun City is so big, the disappearance of a few people is too inconspicuous. "
"And this monster is very good at hiding. We couldn't find any traces of the demonic energy everywhere. If the compass hadn't reacted, we might have been tricked." After Huo Chongxiao finished speaking, he felt a little worried, "We did find the traces of the demonic energy. But the amount is too small, I don’t know if it’s enough to track.”
"Let's give it a try first." Yue Yunqiao said, "Senior brother, I will protect you."
Huo Chongxiao nodded, took out a simple stone lamp, closed his eyes and recited the magic formula.
This is the tracking technique of Danxia Palace. Bai Mengjin felt that his concerns were very reasonable. With his current cultivation level, this little demonic energy was indeed not enough.
Just when he took out the talisman paper and was about to burn it, she suddenly said: "Mr. Huo, let me hold the lamp for you and add my magic power. Maybe the effect will be better."
Huo Chongxiao thought it made sense, so he handed the stone lamp to her.
Bai Mengjin held the lamp and secretly kneaded it with his fingers before pouring the magic power into it.
The talisman stained with demonic aura was put in front of the lamp, and with a "boom", a stream of black smoke came out of the flame, pointing in a certain direction.
Huo Chongxiao was delighted: "It works!"
Bai Mengjin also looked happy and returned the lamp to him: "Great! Shall we catch up?"
Huo Chongxiao identified the direction and took the lead in leading the way: "Let's go!"
Bai Mengjin followed behind and smiled softly. After all, she has been scolded as a devil for thousands of years, but she still knows this little trick. It's a pity that my cultivation has been severely suppressed, and I don't know how to recover.
