Jiao Shan and Jiao Hai were male cultivators, so they took on the task of knocking on doors and asking questions.
Pei Xihe and Ding Wan stood behind them. Pei Xihe's beautiful eyes calmly observed each household's reaction and the surrounding environment.
Ding Wan's eyes were not directed at her.
A bit of doubt flashed in her almond-shaped eyes.
Junior Sister Pei is a very strange existence in the outer sect.
To be more precise, her reputation is as polarizing as it gets.
More than half of them said that she was fussy, had no tolerance for others, and would always retaliate against others, but she always had a smiling face, sleek and exquisite, which was somewhat similar to the Mu Zhangshi in Fangshi.
The rest of the people said that she was simple and lovable, and that she was very considerate of others.
But one thing remains unchanged. Although her cultivation speed is not as fast as those of the real geniuses, she has been able to cultivate all the way to this day with her three spiritual roots.
After more than ten years of practice, he has reached the twelfth level of Qi training, and he completes tasks with impeccable perfection.
She thought about it carefully, and it seemed that those who were supporting Junior Sister Pei were those who had done missions with her. It was precisely because of this that she decided to form a team and come together after asking about it.
Now that I have actually come into contact with it, I feel that it is really good.
Pei Xihe is different from her bad reputation.
It seems that someone in the sect has been offended.
Ding Wan secretly said to herself that it was a pity that Junior Sister Pei's current state did not come forward to clarify the situation. Confronting the culprit, it seems that the person he provoked was not an easy person.
Pei Xihe saw her looking at him and raised his lips and smiled at her.
Bright and brilliant, like a flower blooming in front of her, Ding Wan was slightly photographed by this beauty.
I thought to myself that maybe it was caused by this beauty.
Pei Xihe didn't expect that she thought so much. Her mind was focused on observing every household.
They didn't dare to open the door.
The door was closed tightly, but the two brothers Jiao Shan and Jiao Hai still couldn't answer no matter how they knocked on the door or asked for clarification.
As long as Pei Xihe calms down and listens attentively, her six senses are superb, and she can hear clearly the thumping heartbeat of a mortal.
I'm nervous, or I don't believe them.
When Jiao Shan and Jiao Hai stopped knocking on the door and came to them, both of them showed some impatience on their faces.
Pei Xihe smiled: "Thank you for your hard work, brothers."
She continued: "They didn't dare to open the door at all. It seemed that an evil ghost had transformed into an immortal master and devoured other people's human souls. They were frightened and never dared to open the door again."
Ding Wan also nodded: "That makes sense, but what should we do? How about using a magic weapon to break the door open?"
Pei Xihe shook his head and pointed at the trees in the small yards of every household.
"Look at these willow trees."
Jiao Hai was suddenly startled.
"These are willow trees!" He turned around suddenly and saw the runes carved on the doors of the houses.
"Using the power of the willow tree to retain the soul, it activates the runes on the door and restrains the evil spirits. This is a monk's method. A monk must have been here."
"With these arrangements, even the Ghost King can't break in, otherwise this place might have become an empty village."
Pei Xihe nodded.
"But if the monks come here to collect the evil ghosts and can deploy such means, they will at least be able to practice Qi in the tenth level, and even reach perfection."
"Where is he now?"
Surprise and fear suddenly arose in Ding Wan's heart.
Among the four of them, Pei Xihe and Jiao Shan have the highest cultivation level and are at the 12th level of Qi training, while she and Jiao Hai are at the 11th level of Qi training.
If Qi Lian Dzogchen really died here, wouldn't they also be in the same danger?
She took a deep breath and quickly adjusted her mood. She had already completed tasks of various sizes, so naturally she had to be mentally strong to have the courage to take on the Nine Stars task.
Jiao Shan said: "We still have to start with the villagers."
"Why don't we break down the door directly? We can't wait any longer. Ask them and everything will be clear."
He was impatient, and there was a glint in his eyes.
Pei Xihe thought for a while and decided to control the force a little so that it would not hurt the villagers, so this was the only way he could do it.
"That's all it can do, then I'll trouble senior brother."
"It doesn't matter." Jiao Shan smiled. He was now in his early thirties and had cultivated to the twelfth level of Qi training. He was considered young. His eyebrows and face looked like a young man in his early twenties.
He made up his mind and walked quickly to a closed door.
A long sword fell into his hand.
After condensing spiritual power, the eighth-grade spiritual treasure is just a weapon, but it is a hundred times sharper and tougher than ordinary mortal swords.
He held his sword and slashed hard at the door.
The door made of black wood may be considered thick, but how can it withstand this chop?
It shattered in response, with a harsh crackle and cracks all over the door.
Pei Xihe saw a pair of frightened eyes from the crack.
Jiao Shan slashed his second sword, and it shattered into pieces, no longer blocked.
The door had turned into a large wooden board and fell to the floor. Looking closely, there were four people in total.
A middle-aged couple, a boy of seven or eight years old and a girl in her early ten years.
The four of them looked horrified, but they saw that they had not turned into ghosts to devour them.
The man in charge of the house protected his wife and children behind him and asked tentatively.
"Are you really immortal masters?"
Jiao Hai said angrily.
"Otherwise, we are Kunlun disciples. We heard that this place has turned into a ghost village, and we have come to save the ghosts and kill them. Please tell us the details soon."
The peasant man suddenly knelt down and knocked his head to the ground.
"Please immortal masters, please save us, we really can't survive anymore."
The woman and a pair of children behind them also knelt on the ground with a plop, and kowtowed silently along with the pillars of their family.
It seems that he is being persecuted and oppressed by this fierce ghost, and is extremely miserable.
Ding Yuan's eyes flashed with emotion.
Even the two brothers Jiao Shan and Jiao Hai lost some of their original anger and quickly helped the couple and two children up.
There was a hint of darkness in Pei Xihe's eyes.
It's escaping.
In evading the questions they ask "the details of what happened here," they are victims of evasion.
It often symbolizes a guilty conscience.
She did not let her sympathy affect her thinking.
Why feel guilty?
She smiled.
"Uncle and aunt, don't worry. We Kunlun disciples will eliminate demons and protect the Tao, and we will eradicate evil spirits. We will never let go of any evildoers. Please tell us what happened here so that we can be prepared."
Her eyes were sincere, meeting their gazes.
He spoke softly and had a soothing power, and his beautiful colors were even more captivating. The whole family felt as if a fairy from heaven had descended to earth.
The man and his wife said quickly.
"The ghosts that came out of nowhere here are so scary that we don't even dare to go out. If there wasn't food in the cellar and firewood in the woodshed, we would have starved to death."
They said with a sad face: "Our family is almost out of rice, grains, vegetables and oil. A few days ago, there was someone who had nothing to cook. He was so hungry that he had no choice but to walk out of the house. He was killed by a vicious ghost! That scream, It’s scary.”
The two couples were still crying, they were really frightened.
Pei Xihe's eyes darkened even more.
The six senses are extraordinary, which means that the five senses are sharper than ordinary people. The sixth sense is a premonition, which is extremely accurate.
At this moment, she was clearly aware of it.
The couple's eyes dodged when they answered, not daring to look directly at them. When she asked her questions, their pupils shrank, out of fear.
And the woman's hand had just clenched into a fist with considerable force, as a way of protecting herself.
The Immortal Master should obviously be their support, and the normal reaction should be excitement, joy, and telling everything they know.
These small movements and emotions that should not appear on them show that they are really hiding something.
What are you covering up?
To be fully prepared, Pei Xihe must know!
