There is no one around here, it is quiet, and a huge lake flows slowly. Sai Laoxian picked up a stone from the ground, imitated the way Zhang Fan summoned the Wishing Lake in the past, carved the words Wishing Lake, and then threw it into the lake.
The moment the stone with the words "Wishing Lake" engraved on it entered the lake, a gloomy and cold wind suddenly hit from a distance, and then the lake filled with dark bubbles. The next moment, the muddy ground quickly became wet. Three big, crooked characters appeared——
"I'm coming!" Sai Laoxian narrowed his eyes slightly when he saw the three words "I'm coming".
"I want to know the cause of Zhang Fan's death?!" Sai Laoxian asked Jin Cuihua and several fierce ghosts to retreat and keep a distance from Wishing Lake first.
You must know that the Wishing Lake can swallow ghosts. If you get too close and be swept in by the supernatural power of the Wishing Lake, it will be really bad.
"Black leather manual!" Soon, Wishing Lake responded.
"Black leather manual?" Sai Laoxian looked stunned when he saw these four words.
"Are you saying that the cause of Zhang Fan's death is related to the black leather manual?" Sai Laoxian looked a little solemn and asked in a low voice.
"The Black Leather Manual has two side effects. The first side effect is that every time it is used, bad luck will come. The holder needs to see the bloody disaster to successfully avoid it. The second side effect is that every time the Black Leather Manual is used for ten After this, there will be a catastrophe!"
"The holder will die instantly after using it for the tenth time!" The crooked font quickly appeared on the muddy shore.
"If you use the black leather manual ten times, the holder will die instantly?! Could it be said that Zhang Fan, this young man, has already used it ten times?" After reading the information about the Wishing Lake, Sai Laoxian couldn't help but breathe. react to.
If you put it this way, the inexplicable cause of Zhang Fan's death will be explained clearly. After using the black leather manual for the tenth time, a terrible second side effect will appear, which is why Zhang Fan died inexplicably.
Now that the cause of death is known, is there a way to resurrect him?
"Then what do we need to do to resurrect Zhang Fan?!" Sai Laoxian glanced at Jin Cuihua and the other ghosts behind him, then turned his head and continued to ask.
"Sacrifice three white-clothed ghosts to me. I'll tell you how to resurrect him!" Wishing Lake replied quickly, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he asked for three white-clothed ghosts to sacrifice.
Seeing this sentence, Sai Laoxian couldn't help but frown.
"Then use us. Sacrifice the three of us. As long as Zhang Fan can be resurrected, then everything will be worth it!" Feng Ling also saw the information about the Wishing Lake, and hurriedly walked out and said seriously.
"No, I can't sacrifice you three!" Sai Laoxian shook his head and refused.
"The Wishing Lake only said that he would tell us how to resurrect by sacrificing three white-clothed ghosts. You see, he was just telling us how to resurrect Zhang Fan, and he did not mean to directly help us resurrect Zhang Fan. There is a literal trap in these words! Once you believe it, That’s it, let’s do it!” Sai Laoxian was indeed a master of Taoism during his lifetime, and he could see the problem in Wishing Lake’s words at a glance.
"No! Your words are not trustworthy. If we sacrificed three white-clothed ghosts to you and you are telling us a way that is impossible to accomplish, wouldn't we have suffered a huge loss?!"
"Besides, it is also good for you that Zhang Fan is alive. Don't forget that your next deal is for him to sacrifice two red-clothed ghosts to you. Think about it, he is already dead, so this deal must be yours." It’s invalid!”
"Although I don't know what you want Li Gui for, but it must be very important to you!"
"Instead of letting the deal between the two ghosts go to waste, why not resurrect Zhang Fan and keep him alive to help you complete the deal! In this way, you will definitely make a profit!"
"If you insist on sacrificing something, then we will make a wish for you in advance on behalf of Zhang Fan to complete the mission - that is to help us resurrect Zhang Fan!!"
"How about it? You have to think clearly. If Zhang Fan dies, it will be very difficult for you to find a suitable trading partner elsewhere!" Sai Laoxian thought for a while and said loudly.
There was nothing wrong with what he said, and he was meticulous. He just let Wishing Lake tell him how to resurrect Zhang Fan.
Okay, forget it if you don't resurrect. Anyway, once Zhang Fan dies, no one will make deals with you. If you want people to sacrifice ghosts to you, there is really no way.
Even if someone makes a deal for you again, there will never be someone as completely honest and trustworthy as Zhang Fan.
Only if Zhang Fan is alive can he have the capital to continue doing business with you. So no matter what, you must agree to resurrect Zhang Fan.
Sure enough, as Sai Laoxian had guessed, after he finished speaking, Wishing Lake fell into deep silence.
He seemed to be thinking about Sai Laoxian's words. It is indeed what Sai Laoxian said, Zhang Fan is a good trading partner. Basically, as long as he puts forward the desired trading items, Zhang Fan will always be able to complete it within the time limit set by himself.
If he really lets him die, he will really lose some money. Wishing Lake was silent for about fifteen minutes before replying again.
——
"Deal! I'll tell you how to resurrect him, but the price is that when the next mission deadline comes, the original sacrifice of two ghosts will be changed to the sacrifice of three ghosts!" The crooked font was written on the muddy bank. emerge.
"No problem, I promise you!" Sai Laoxian felt relieved when he saw that Wishing Lake finally took a step back.
"Zhang Fan's soul was sacrificed to the unknown ghost realm by the black leather manual. If you want to save him, you have to go deep into the unknown ghost realm and bring him out!"
"If you want to take him out, you have to prepare some things!" A gust of wind blew across the lake, and the information on the shore reappeared.
"What is it? Just say it, we will definitely find it!" Sai Laoxian held his breath and whispered.
"Three soul-calling props, namely the soul-calling flag, the seven-star lantern, and the soul-binding rope! We also need a red-clothed ghost, plus an intact virgin!" Wishing Lake revealed the things needed to treat Zhang Fan.
Sai Laoxian could not help but narrow his eyes after reading these things. He knew the two things, the soul-calling flag and the seven-star lantern. The soul-calling flag was currently in his hand, and if nothing unexpected happened, the seven-star lantern was available in his hometown of Maoshan.
As for the soul-binding rope, a supernatural prop, he didn't know. He had only heard of the corpse-binding rope and the demon-binding rope, but he had never heard of the soul-binding rope.
In addition to these three things, Sai Laoxian doesn't know the use of a red-clothed ghost and an unbroken virgin.
"What use do you have for a red-robed ghost and an unbroken virgin?" Sai Laoxian asked with a puzzled look on his face.
"After finding the soul-calling flag, seven-star lantern, and soul-binding rope, the red-clothed ghost holding the soul-summoning flag will enter the unknown land and summon Zhang Fan's soul back. If he is successfully found, he needs to be arrested with the soul-binding rope. Come on, let the virgin outside use her essence and blood to light the seven-star lamp at this time, and let her pull the soul-retaining rope to drag Zhang Fan and the red ghost back! If the seven-star lamp goes out in the middle, they will forever lose their way back to reality!"
"The journey back is extremely dangerous, and you will be attacked by endless ghosts lost in unknown places. Those who are not red-clad ghosts will definitely die!" Soon, Wishing Lake revealed the method of treating Zhang Fan.
After reading it, Sai Laoxian suddenly had a sudden realization on his face. It turns out that this method can make the terrifying Wishing Lake speak extremely dangerous words. That unknown land must be extremely terrifying.
No wonder he found a red-clothed fierce ghost.
"If we get everything together, how will we go to that unknown land?" Sai Laoxian thought for a while and asked.
"When you find it, call me! I'll send you there!!" Wishing Lake responded again.
"Okay!" Sai Laoxian nodded.
"I have another question."
"Where should we look for that soul-binding rope now?" Sai Laoxian asked again.
"Look for a maze survivor named Li Shange in Dahai City and Xisong County. He has a soul-binding rope on his body. This person has two black ghosts, three white ghosts, and one red ghost. He is very difficult to deal with. I suggest you look for him. At that time, take a red-clothed fierce ghost with you!" The crooked font appeared on the shore again.
"You don't have much time to resurrect Zhang Fan. There are currently 24 hours left. Beyond this period, there will be no possibility of his resurrection!" New font information was outlined and appeared on the muddy shore.
Sai Laoxian finished reading it quickly and his expression became more solemn. The soul-binding rope was actually in the hands of a maze survivor, and he actually had three white-clothed ghosts, two black-qi ghosts, and one red-clothed ghost.
The strength is even stronger than theirs, and they are no match for them in a head-to-head confrontation. Moreover, the time to resurrect Zhang Fan is only 24 hours. It is simply difficult to get everything together in such a short period of time.
After a while, Sai Laoxian ended the conversation with Wishing Lake. The stone with the words "Wishing Lake" engraved on it automatically popped out of the water and fell to the shore.
Sai Laoxian destroyed the stone and told Jin Cuihua and other powerful ghosts all about the conversation he had just had with Wishing Lake.
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go quickly!" Feng Chime was still impatient and urged.
In response, Sai Laoxian waved his hand to signal her not to be impulsive and that these matters must be discussed in the long run. You have to make a good plan. If you do it rashly, you may alert the enemy, or even put yourself and others in danger.
At present, the only ones who can resurrect Zhang Fan are fierce ghosts like himself. If something happens to him, there will be no way to save Zhang Fan.
Sai Laoxian asked Jin Cuihua to open the passage to the store and prepared to go back to discuss with Chu Yu and the others.
Jin Cuihua may have successfully advanced to the white-clothed ghost. The cooling time of her [Next Door Window] ability seems to have been shortened a lot. It has not been two hours before she can continue to use it.
