"Crash..."
As his eyes moved, a sound came from the ferocious-looking statue of ghosts and gods.
Immediately afterwards, large pieces of mud and dust fell from the face of the ghost statue, revealing a strange mouth with no lips, countless intertwined teeth, a lake of flesh and blood, and was still squirming.
The mouth opened suddenly, and a huge suction force came from inside, sucking all the air inside and outside the witch temple into the mouth in an instant.
What was also sucked away was the vitality of all living creatures inside and outside the witch temple!
In an instant, all the rats, cockroaches and bugs in the witch temple died. The grass and trees outside the witch temple were also withering one after another. The birds perched on the trees sensed the danger and hurriedly tried to fly away. However, as soon as they flew off the branches, their wings froze, and then they 'plopped' like raindrops. Fall.
The mouth of the statue of ghosts and gods was chewing constantly, as if it was trying to discern a certain taste.
After a moment, the penetrating mouth opened again and let out a burst of penetrating laughter.
This laughter seemed like tens of millions of people laughing at the same time. If there were people in the witch temple at this moment, they would go crazy just by hearing this strange laughter.
"I found it, I finally found you..."
"That's right, that's the smell, it's that you stole my baby!"
"So you are here, but you asked me to find you."
"Haha, you are a bit decisive, but since I know that you are near Qingtang King City and will arrive soon, it is useless even if you interrupt the contact. When I take back the treasure, I will swallow you all..."
Amidst the infiltrating laughter, the mud and dust that had fallen earlier flew up from the ground and returned to the face of the statue of ghosts and gods.
After a few breaths, the statue of ghosts and gods returned to its previous appearance of wood plastic clay.
The weird flesh-and-blood mouth and the rotating pale eyes all disappeared.
Only the corpses of birds and beasts inside and outside the witch temple, as well as the withered grass and trees, proved that strange things had indeed happened here before.
At the same time, Taoist Priest Qiu Shi, who was interrogating the Qingtang inner guards, suddenly changed his expression.
He quickly performed a magic formula, and then he heard a muffled sound of "bang bang" on his body, and the gourds with talismans on them all exploded.
Taoist Master Qiu Shi was also injured and bleeding from the corner of his mouth.
When the red-clothed envoys who interrogated the Qingtang inner guards together with Taoist Qiu Shi saw this, they were furious, thinking that it was the Qingtang inner guards who were responsible, and they immediately wanted to deal with them.
The Qingtang inner guards were astonished. They didn't understand what had happened to Taoist Master Qiu Shi. Could it be that there was some element of torture involved in the torture? Is that necessary?
Taoist Master Qiu Shi wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, waved his hand and said: "It has nothing to do with them, you continue to torture."
Qin Shaoyou heard the noise and hurried over, supported Taoist Qiu Shi, sent a stream of blood into his body to help him heal his injuries, and asked at the same time: "Senior Brother Qiu, are you okay? What happened?"
"First Evolution"
"It's okay, I won't die."
Taoist Master Qiu Shi grinned and said: "There is a situation at the witch temple. A powerful being appeared in the witch temple. My Gu insect was restrained by him before he could send back the news. He even wanted to We traced our location through the Gu worms. Fortunately, I noticed it in time and cut off the contact with the Gu worms, but I also suffered some backlash from the spell."
It turned out that when leaving the witch temple, Qin Shaoyou asked Taoist Qiu Shi to leave some Gu worms behind, hoping to see if anyone from the Qingtang inner guard would go to the witch temple and what they would do so that I can handle it calmly.
Unexpectedly, something like this happened.
While being surprised, Qin Shaoyou couldn't help but feel a little scared. Fortunately, it was the Gu worms that were left behind, instead of Qiurong and Gui Cha. Otherwise, the loss now would not just be the Gu worms.
"It seems that there are still powerful wizards among the Qingtang inner guards. We must be more careful in the future."
Hearing Qin Shaoyou's words, Taoist Master Qiu Shi shook his head.
"It's not like a wizard. When I cut off the contact with the Gu insect, I had a hand with that powerful being. It was more like a demon, vicious and chaotic."
"Ghost?" Qin Shaoyou raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Moreover, its power also makes me feel a little familiar, as if I have fought against it somewhere."
Hearing this, Qin Shaoyou became even more surprised.
It happened that Su Tingyu rushed over at this time, so he asked Junior Sister Su to help Taoist Qiu Shi heal his injuries. He quickly walked to the horse and took out the statue of Jiutian Dangmo Patriarch that he had always carried with him from his luggage. .
After putting a stick of incense on the statue of the Patriarch, Qin Shaoyou asked: "Master Patriarch, do you know what the thing that appeared in the previous witch temple was?"
Grandmaster did not disappoint him.
The green smoke rising from the incense billowed and surged in front of the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch, and finally gathered into four words: Yama Ghost King.
"King of Ghosts of Yama? This name seems familiar..."
Qin Shaoyou squinted his eyes and thought for a moment, then recalled.
Isn't this Yama Ghost King the evil god summoned by the Qingtang Wizard who was brainwashed by the 'See You Tomorrow' monk in Qingtang Guard City?
But the summoning ceremony was interrupted by the Patriarch.
When they destroyed the formation and the ghost mist was about to dissipate, the two generals Turtle and Snake flew into the ghost realm, took out the treasure of Ghost King Yama, and asked the mysterious recipe to create a dish called 'Ghost Seeing Sorrow' , which also gave him the talent of [Ghost Eater] after eating it.
That witch temple turned out to be a dojo dedicated to the Ghost King Yama? Is it such a coincidence? When I visited the spot before, didn’t the people nearby say that there were some powerful ghosts and gods enshrined in the witch temple? Dare it be true? How many vests does it have?
So, the Ghost King Yama smelled their breath and came to the world through the statue, wanting to find his treasure?
"It's a pity it's too late."
The treasure of the Ghost King of Yama is destined to never be found, because it has been eaten by Qin Shaoyou and Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch.
Not to mention, it tastes quite good, just like sea cucumber, elastic and chewy.
Qin Shaoyou shook his head, and did not continue to recall the feeling of [Ghost Seeing Sorrow], but pondered in his heart: If the Ghost King of Yama really appeared near Qingtang King City, could he use it to provoke him and Qingtang? The disputes caused the situation in Qingtang to fall into greater chaos?
The more chaotic the Qingtang Royal City is, the safer they will be and the better chance they will have to complete their mission and escape calmly.
Qin Shaoyou hasn't figured out how to use the Ghost King of Yama, but the red-clothed envoys have made progress and gains in their torture of the Qingtang inner guards.
