No choice?
These words made Zhang Yan frown slightly.
Zhang Yan naturally understood what Bai Yu said. To sum it up, it’s really just one sentence: Now you’ve stung a hornet’s nest. If you don’t want to face trouble alone, you can only choose to be a fellow traveler with me.
In fact, there is another meaning in this. The "I" Bai Yu refers to does not really refer to Bai Yu himself. It should be talking about the group of monsters behind Bai Yu who are also hunting ghosts.
Zhang Yan sat upright, his eyes swept away the previous indifference and became a little more enthusiastic. He was really curious about the other party. Asked: "Your Excellency Bai Yu, what do you mean by this statement? Can you elaborate?"
"Haha, Mr. Zhang seems not candid enough."
"No, no, no, you have misunderstood. I am just curious about what you mean by hunting spiritual creatures? It seems that there is no benefit in it? Or is there any deep hatred in it?" The implication is actually You can't just believe Bai Yu when you say you hunt spiritual creatures, right? You have to come up with something that people can trust.
"Haha, Mr. Zhang is being cautious." Bai Yu also understood, so he patted the flying beast's head and said with a smile: "Go and pick up that half-dead little thing. Remember, don't steal anything on the way."
"Chirp!"
After chirping twice, the swallowing beast flapped its wings and flew away, disappearing in the blink of an eye. Zhang Yan couldn't help but sigh again that this guy is really fast!
"Is it going?" Zhang Yan had some guesses, but still had doubts.
"Go to Wu's Mansion. There is half a spiritual creature left there. Bringing it back will solve your doubts. I hope you can be more honest then. Okay?"
"Haha, your Excellency is really quick to talk!" Zhang Yan smiled. It was really difficult to play with someone who changed his tone of voice.
Afterwards, the two of them talked about the so-called sanctuary. The first thing Zhang Yan was curious about was "Where is the sanctuary?". But Bai Yu didn't seem to know this.
"The specific location of the sanctuary has never been discovered. It seems to be a hidden place that is difficult for any living being to reach." Bai Yu answered this way.
When these words fell into Zhang Yan's ears, he had another thought. After all, compared to Bai Yu, or compared to beings like Yu Wenbing in the Wild Sky Realm, the earth has already figured out ghosts very clearly in the legendary era. Although they are called "spiritual objects" in the Wild Sky Realm, their essence is the same.
And Zhang Yan has been thinking about this matter since he saved the two ghost kings. I also have some speculations of my own.
For example, the simplest distance can be used to judge.
The ghost king just said, "Although I rarely go out and move around," it can be understood that it usually stays in one place and does not move. It should be similar to a monk's retreat. And this time I went out, it was probably the first time in a long time, and it was also because of the matters in Langyuan City. Calculate the time interval before and after this, and then use some descriptions of the methods of ghosts in Longhu Mountain Gate. Ghosts, even if they are ghost kings, they must run along the road honestly, and it is nothing more than speed. And if you want to move, that is the method of ghosts and immortals.
In this way, we can get an answer: the so-called holy land is actually not that far away from Langyuan City, and it may even be within the borders of Beijiang County.
But this answer seems reasonable, but it is not so reasonable when you think about it carefully.
Because according to the records in the "Spiritual Miscellaneous Volume", the distribution of ghosts is not only limited to the land of a country, nor even just to the boundaries of the human race. Ghosts exist in the entire wilderness, as long as there are living creatures living together, and there is no distinction between them. Human race or demon race.
Then comes the problem. If the sanctuary is within Beijiang County, is it too far for ghosts from other places further away? For example, if the ghost kings from the demon clan come out once, wouldn't they have to spend more than half a year or more on the road? This is simply unreasonable.
So are there many sanctuaries? Not right either. At least from Bai Yu's introduction and the description in "Spiritual Matters Miscellaneous Volume", the holy realm is unique to ghosts, and there are no different ones here and there.
It not only allows ghosts to move around, but also facilitates travel and shortens the time spent on the road. As far as Zhang Yan is concerned, there is only one way: open more doors.
This is Zhang Yan’s analogy to the legendary “Ghost Gate” on Earth. Also used as an analogy to the sanctuary is the underworld.
It seems that the existence of something similar to the underworld is very consistent with the saying that "no living thing can set foot" and exists "between heaven and earth".
It can also be said to be a "different space" in the wilderness. By opening the "door" between the sanctuary and the normal world, entry and exit can be achieved, which explains the seemingly contradictory places before.
Just as he was thinking about it, a silhouette rushed into the room. This time Zhang Yan was on guard and knew that it was Bai Yu's swallowing beast that flew out before and now flew back. But when he saw clearly what the swallowing beast looked like at this moment, he still couldn't help but be shocked.
The thing in its mouth was indeed, as Bai Yu said, the ghost child in the Wu Mansion that Zhang Yan had seen once, the one that looked like a girl. However, as a soul body, it was bitten tightly by the swallowing beast and could not escape. It seemed to be restrained by the fluorescent long teeth of the swallowing beast.
Not only that, the ghost child also appeared to be dying and no longer looked as eerie and terrifying as when Zhang Yan first saw it. The soul body was so damaged that only the torso and most of the head were left. You can see obvious signs of tearing at the broken area. Even the consciousness is not very clear.
"This is?"
"Baisha won't steal his mouth, and he doesn't like to eat bit by bit. He swallows it all in one bite. The body of this spiritual boy was bitten off and eaten by the spiritual king. Sir, he has read "Spiritual Matters Miscellaneous Volume" You should understand what it means to be a soul boy in the sanctuary, right?"
"Yeah. Got it." Zhang Yan nodded. Inexplicably, I felt happy looking at the miserable condition of this soul boy.
"Okay, let's show Mr. Zhang how you eat spiritual things." Bai Yu patted the swallowing beast on the head. After the latter understood, he jumped to the ground in front of Zhang Yan, raised his head, and let Zhang Yan watch. It swallowed the ghost child's remaining soul in one gulp.
In Zhang Yan's perception, the ghost child seemed to be dismembered by some force the moment it entered the swallowing beast's belly, and quickly gathered into the soul of the swallowing beast, like nutrients. No wonder he felt that the soul fluctuations of this swallowing beast were ridiculously strong from the beginning. With such talent, how can he not be strong?
However, there is not only soul energy in the ghost child's soul, but also hostility and evil spirit. Can this swallowing beast bear it if he swallows it together?
"puff!"
Without any warning, the swallowing beast farted loudly, which was colorless and odorless. However, in Zhang Yan's yin and yang vision, a large group of vicious and sinister energy belonging to ghosts was expelled, and after a moment it returned. It sank into the ground and disappeared.
Can it still be like this? Is this expelling the hostility and evil energy as indigestible waste? Zhang Yan blinked his eyes and secretly thought about the strangeness of this monster.
