After the man saw the red-clothed ghost, he almost screamed out in fear. Fortunately, Xu Huaigu reacted in time and covered his mouth, so he was not discovered.
The ghost was dressed in a bright red coat and made no sound as it walked on the road, so it appeared so suddenly that it startled the man.
Although Xu Huaigu was a little nervous, he was not scared out of his wits. The ghost walked through this small street quickly and quietly, passing by the alley where the two men were hiding.
This ghost was very distinctive, and it immediately caught Xu Huaigu's attention. Dressed in red, she was obviously a female ghost, and the large red robe could not hide her big belly, which highlighted her identity.
After Xu Huaigu saw this scene of the female ghost, he frowned and felt that it was very troublesome. When a female ghost dies, she still dies with the fetus in her belly, so her grievances are particularly strong and her killing power is usually higher.
However, in this brief encounter with the female ghost, Xu Huaigu could also slightly detect some conditions of the female ghost.
The female ghost should only be a ghost in the four realms. If the realms were too different, Xu Huaigu should not have felt the sudden arrival of the female ghost at that time, so he took Kong Xiong into hiding.
This also made Xu Huaigu feel more at ease. Zuo Qiuxun deliberately left the haunting to Xu Huaigu alone because he wanted to hone his skills, and he was also happy to do so.
If the ghost has five realms, Xu Huaigu will definitely not be able to deal with it, and the fourth realm is one level higher than Xu Huaigu, making it an excellent training opponent.
Seeing that the ghost was a little further away, Xu Huaigu said to the man beside him who was so nervous that he couldn't help himself: "Let's go, let's follow quietly." Although the man was frightened, he was not a greedy person and gritted his teeth. Then he said: "Okay." Xu Huaigu pulled the man up, tried his best to hide the fluctuations of spiritual energy on his body, and quietly followed the female ghost to touch it with the man.
On a dark and windy night, two people and one ghost lurked in this small little deer city, one behind the other. The female ghost was moving very fast, and at the same time Xu Huaigu had to make sure not to be discovered, and used all his strength not to lose her.
Not long after, after the female ghost turned a corner, she finally pulled Kong Xiong in Xu Huaigu and hid at the corner to see what the female ghost was going to do.
I saw the female ghost standing by the well, pulling the skirt of her robe, squatting down, and drawing some strange patterns on the ground with her fingers.
And every time the female ghost swipes her finger, blood will appear on the ground, and then gradually disappear, which looks very weird.
Kong Xiong was puzzled and was about to ask Xu Huaigu, but as soon as he turned his head, he saw Xu Huaigu frowning and shaking his head, so the man had to give up the doubtful question.
Then he went to see the female ghost. After about a while of painting the incense, he stood up again and quickly rushed to the next location.
The man quietly asked Xu Huaigu: "Should we follow?" Xu Huaigu shook his head and said: "No, what the female ghost drew on the ground is a formation. She must be rushing to the next place where the formation is arranged. Lucheng Government After being kept in the dark for such a long time, this female ghost has no idea how many formations she has arranged. It is useless for us to follow her. We might as well study this place carefully." Kong Xiong looked sad and said, "Then she arranged the formations. What's the purpose?" Xu Huaigu said uncertainly: "Looking at the weird form when the formation was arranged, this formation must be an evil formation, but her purpose... I'm not sure, it's definitely not a good thing anyway, I still have to wait until the formation is cracked We can only confirm it later." The man began to become anxious again, and Xu Huaigu said: "It's okay, Huang Shan understands the formation and is a half-ghost cultivator, just ask him to come over and identify it." Kong Xiong was very anxious and immediately asked Xu Huaigu Said: "Then I will go back immediately and tell Huang Shan to let him come!" Xu Huaigu asked: "You are going back alone, are you afraid of being encountered by ghosts?" The man looked hesitant for a while, but then he said: "It's okay. I'm not afraid of death!" Xu Huaigu glanced at the man and told him, "There's no need to go back. In fact, Huang Shan has always been with us." The man asked doubtfully, "Huh?" Xu Huaigu looked at a roof, and a black figure came out. , then jumped lightly and landed on the ground.
The breeze slightly lifted the corners of his clothes, and a middle-aged man walked out of the darkness with a smile on his face. In front of the two of them, it was Huang Shan.
He smiled and said: "Why, didn't you say you don't need me? Why do you still have to call me over?" Xu Huaigu also smiled and said back: "I didn't call you, it was you who couldn't bear the temper and wanted to show off. Yes, okay?" When Huang Shan heard this, he deliberately threatened: "This is what you said, will I leave if you don't say you need me?" Xu Huaigu said quickly: "No, no, no, you still have to rely on Huang Dao Friend, are you ready?" After Kong Xiong listened to the conversation between the two, he was as anxious as a monkey and said aggrievedly: "How long have we been, and we are still making fun of each other? Let's take a look at this formation quickly!" So Xu Huaigu He Huangshan said no more and walked up to the well.
The well was very large and was built in a circular shape with bluestone bricks. The gaps between the stone bricks were covered with moss.
Right above the well is a crank handle for lifting water. The workmanship is rough and the wood is badly corroded. It is an old object.
This well is actually the source of water for the people in this area, and it is related to the water safety of the surrounding people.
Xu Huaigu looked at the well and asked Huang Shan: "Is this female ghost's formation poisoning the water?" Huang Shan stretched out two fingers to touch the moss beside the well, dipped some water in it, and put it to his lips. He tasted it slightly, then shook his head and said, "No, there is no problem with the water source." Then Huang Shan squatted down and carefully inspected the arrangement of the formation.
He took out a small cloth bag from what he was carrying, and then lightly sprinkled the bright cinnabar on the ground.
As the cinnabar gradually covered the formation, the blood that appeared when the female ghost arranged it was also revealed, outlining a complex pattern.
This small formation is quite complicated. At least Xu Huaigu was confused when he looked at it, and could only see complex lines. However, as time passed, the expression on Huang Shan's face gradually became stagnant, and then became very heavy. It was no longer as it was before. He was so calm when chatting and laughing with Xu Huaigu.
When Xu Huaigu saw Huang Shan's face, his heart dropped and he asked, "What's wrong? Is this formation very powerful?" Huang Shan shook his head solemnly and said, "Indeed, this formation is not simple, it is very advanced. I mentioned the formation a little bit in one of my master's fragments, but I don't know how a female ghost from the Fourth Realm could possess such an advanced formation."
"Then this formation is difficult to decipher?" Huang Shan said: "It is not difficult to crack this formation. The difficulty is that this formation is just a small formation in the middle of a large formation. Cracking this formation is very important to the entire formation." Your execution will cause too much impact." Xu Huaigu frowned and asked him: "Then what is the purpose of this formation?" Huang Shan was a little uncertain and said hesitantly: "This small formation has very little harm, but when connected together, This formation must be extremely powerful. I don't know why this female ghost wants such a powerful formation. Judging from the strength of this formation, it should be able to destroy the entire Lucheng." Kong Xiong heard the entire formation. Lucheng suddenly felt a chill running down his spine and said in disbelief: "The whole Lucheng? Brother Huang Shan, are you kidding me? Is this possible?" Huang Shan raised his eyebrows and said to him: "Maybe you don't know, right? People like Lucheng A small city with a population of several thousand and an area of several miles can be destroyed by a single strike from a Seventh Realm monk, or from a Seventh Realm sword cultivator's natal flying sword unsheathed. And this formation is extremely complex. It is not impossible to destroy the entire Lucheng." Kong Xiong was shocked when he heard these words. He had no idea what the abilities of those seventh-level monks were, he had never thought about it, and no one had ever told him.
Xu Huaigu quickly asked Huang Shan: "With the speed at which the female ghost arranged the formations, after so many days, there are countless such formations in Lucheng. Do you have any way to deal with them?" Huang Shan pondered for a long time before saying Exit: "Time, what we need most is time. The ghost can only set up the formation at night, and we can dismantle the formation much faster than she can, so as long as we destroy enough small formations before the big formation is formed, , let the power of the formation be weakened so that we can deal with it." Xu Huaigu immediately thought of a countermeasure and said: "The government, there are many people in the government, you can ask them for help." Huang Shan nodded and said: "This is a way, the government over there Leave the matter to me, I will use this formation to convince them." Kong Xiong tentatively asked carefully: "Then if we kill the female ghost directly, can we also prevent the formation from triggering?" Huang Shan said : "It stands to reason that it works. If there is no one else behind the female ghost, the formation can be controlled. Killing the female ghost will prevent the formation from triggering, which is also a feasible strategy." Xu Huaigu thought for a while and said: "Both of them In comparison, I think it is easier to kill the female ghost directly? Destroying the formation is too cumbersome. Moreover, the formation will become invisible on its own. We can't cover the entire Lucheng with cinnabar, right? Or just kill the female ghost directly. Easier." Huang Shan asked him: "Are you sure you can kill a female ghost who is one level higher than you at night? If you use that thunder talisman, although it is safe, you will suffer a big loss." Xu Huaigu Finally, he decided: "Then let's shoot left and right. I'll go find the ghost and stop her from setting up the formation, and you can go to the government, explain the dangers of this formation to them, and ask them to send people to assist you. How about that?" Huang Shan nodded seriously and said, "I think it's okay." Kong Xiong was afraid that he would be forgotten by Xu Huaigu, so he quickly asked him, "Then what can I do?" Xu Huaigu said, "You and Huang Shan can go to the government together." You are more familiar with the people in the government, and you can help Huang Shan destroy the formation." The man who read the book suddenly became a little embarrassed, and asked: "Brother Xu, I know that my level is indeed too low, but I also want to kill ghosts, can I go find that ghost with you?" Xu Huaigu was in a dilemma.
To be honest, with a man's level of cultivation, although he has a good knife in his hand, it is not an immortal item. It really can't help much in killing ghosts.
But looking at the man's anxious eyes, Xu Huaigu couldn't bear it. Huang Shanxin Lake sent a message to advise: "Let me advise you, although Kong Xiong really wants to kill ghosts, his level is too low. If you don't let him go, at least you yourself will not be dragged down, and you will have a greater chance of winning. "Xu Huaigu thought for a long time with an ugly face, and said, "Let him go. If it doesn't work, just use that thunder talisman." Huang Shan nodded and said, "That's up to you. The matter is urgent. I will do it now. Just go to the government to talk about the matter, and the more time you have, the better your chance of winning." Then Huang Shan stood up without hesitation, jumped up, quietly climbed up to the roof beam of a house, and then disappeared in the moonlight.
The man asked Xu Huaigu in surprise: "Then I will follow Brother Xu?" Xu Huaigu said with a smile: "Yes, follow me to kill ghosts." The man excitedly patted his chest and said boldly: "Okay, the female ghost must pay for it. Price!" Regarding the man's behavior, Xu Huaigu still felt a little helpless.
Xu Huaigu patted the man on the shoulder and chased after the female ghost in the direction where she left. Kong Xiong followed closely.
The moonlight was like water, and under the stagnant water, a killing began.
