According to what his mother-in-law said just now, Li Cheng's house was in the center of the village, so he walked over slowly without any hurry.
The second master told him that when he glanced at Li Cheng before, he was only at the seventh level of Qi training, and it was extremely vain. He should have been forcibly promoted.
As for the demon, he has not yet sensed his presence in the village.
"Second Master, what do you think the demon has to do with Li Cheng?" Ye Bai asked as he walked.
"From the current point of view, it is nothing more than sacrificing some sacrifices to obtain something. He is just a poor man who was bewitched by demons to trade with him." The second master said disdainfully.
"There must be something hateful about this kind of person." Ye Bai sighed. He also wanted to see what Li Cheng wanted to do when he invited him.
When he came to the street, the people in the village looked at Ye Bai slowly walking towards the village chief's house with strange and greedy eyes.
Before he even entered the door, he saw Li Shan waiting at the door. Watching Ye Bai's arrival, he greeted him enthusiastically.
"Uncle Liu is here, please come in, please come in." Li Shan said with a flattering smile.
Li Cheng's house is the only one in the village made of white and gray marble, and it is also the center of the entire village, but it looks like it was built in recent years.
The house is divided into upper and lower floors, and the rooms are connected to each other. There is a patio in the middle to hide the wind and absorb the air. Four stone pillars are erected in the southeast, northwest and four directions, carved with dragons and phoenixes.
At this time, Li Cheng was sitting in the front hall, watching the housekeeper bring Ye Bai, and stood up to invite him.
"Little brother is here, please sit down."
Ye Bai sat down unceremoniously. Li Cheng filled up the wine for him, but he didn't drink it. Li Cheng just smiled and didn't care.
Then there was a flash of light, and there were twenty high-grade spiritual stones that were as bright as pearls on the table.
"What does Village Chief Li mean?" Ye Bai was not in a hurry to pick him up.
"Little brother, I don't tell secret stories. I believe you also know something from that old woman. I won't say more about the truth or lies." Li Cheng smiled and continued:
"I also know that little brother is very human. I should apologize for what happened to Niu Er. I hope that little brother will leave as soon as possible and not get involved. It will be good for you and me."
After Li Cheng finished speaking, he looked at Ye Bai with a smile and waited for his answer.
"I see. Since you, Village Chief Li, are so sincere, it would be disrespectful for me to stay any longer." Ye Bai replied after pondering for a moment.
When Li Cheng got the answer he wanted, he motioned to Ye Bai to accept the spirit stone. Ye Bai was naturally not polite and waved the spirit stone to accept it.
"Then I wish Village Chief Li's wish will come true, I won't bother you anymore and I'll take my leave."
Li Cheng looked at Ye Bai's leaving figure with a smile on his face, but there was a hint of cruel killing intent in his eyes.
"It seems that the situation behind Li Cheng is more complicated than we thought, Second Master." Ye Bai sighed.
"It's not easy for a person at the seventh level of Qi training to casually take out twenty high-grade spiritual stones, and one of them has been tampered with. It seems to be used to monitor your position. If you want to take away these spiritual stones, you can It's not that simple." The second master smiled.
"Since he didn't want me to leave from the beginning, why did he give me the spiritual stone? Unless he has important things to deal with in a short time and has no time to pay attention to my uncertainty." Ye Bai asked and answered himself.
"That's right, let's leave temporarily and find a place to deal with the spirit stones, and then quietly go back to give Li Cheng a surprise. Hehe!" the second master said with a smile.
Li Cheng never dreamed that even a foundation-building monk would not be able to find the spiritual stone he marked with a special magic weapon. How could he be discovered so easily by a being like Er Ye.
Ye Bai immediately returned to his mother-in-law's house and told her that he was leaving soon, but he still came back and asked her to wait patiently for him.
The mother-in-law didn't say much, she just told him to be more careful and sent him out with a smile.
Ye Bai looked back at the village that had disappeared, and then left without looking back.
The moon and stars are sparse, and dark night is coming. Ye Bai leaned against the stone wall and ate the freshly cooked barbecue, listening to the crackling sound of the fire, feeling particularly relaxed.
The marked spiritual stone was exchanged for 100 mid-grade spiritual stones when Ye Bai went to Tianxiang City early in the morning.
The mountain forest here is about twenty miles away from Longmian Village. When the flames burned out, Ye Bai packed up his things and set off at night.
At this time, Longmian Village seemed to be particularly quiet at this moment. Ye Bai had been squatting outside Granny Chen's courtyard for half an hour, and there was nothing strange so far.
"Am I overthinking it?" Ye Bai murmured to himself.
"Not necessarily. You've been squatting for an hour. Haven't you noticed that the village is a little too quiet at this time? There is no sound of insects around."
Second Master Ye Baijing suddenly woke up after being reminded. It stands to reason that this night is when those corpses that are neither human nor ghosts come out to move around, and there is no reason why the village should be so quiet.
Then he decided to go to Li Cheng's house to investigate. The trouble here can only be caused by that guy.
Ye Bai's spiritual energy gathered on the soles of his feet and disappeared into the distance as he lifted his feet.
Arriving in front of Li Cheng's house, there were no lights around, only the faint moonlight illuminated it.
"Ye Bai, there is demonic energy emanating from the center of this house. Control your aura before going in to investigate." Er Ye reminded.
Ye Bai nodded and immediately turned in through the back door. He quickly came to the patio and hid behind a stone pillar to observe.
At this time, the courtyard had changed. Li Cheng stood on a stone pillar with a radius of ten meters in the center of the courtyard. The surrounding area turned into a deep pit about ten meters deep. As his fingers continued to pinch the spell, blood continued to surge in the pit. boiling.
Li Cheng didn't notice Ye Bai hiding in the dark at all. As he kept casting spells, bursts of coquettish blood light lit up in the center, and a large formation rose from in front of him.
"The ghost array opens."
Following Li Cheng's low shout, formation lights rose from all directions in the village in response.
And the corpses in the village, neither human nor ghosts, have also come to life, but what is different from usual is that their eyes are now glowing with blood.
As streaks of blood mist gathered towards the central area of Li Cheng, he also showed an excited expression.
"Stop him immediately."
While the second master was speaking, Ye Bai had already taken action. The Qingfeng sword was brushed by the possessed hand, and a red spiritual fire rose from the edge of the sword.
A splitting sun sword energy slashed towards Li Cheng who was casting a spell.
Li Cheng didn't expect that someone would suddenly attack him. When he reacted, he could only resist in a hurry.
In the panic, he was struck with a sword in the chest, and the formation was naturally interrupted.
And at the moment of interruption, the corpses awakened by the formation in the village suddenly became stiff and motionless, which also allowed many villagers to escape.
But some villagers still died because they had no time to resist. For a moment, the village fell into panic and screams were heard from everywhere...
At this time, when Li Cheng looked back angrily to see who interrupted his spell casting, he found that the person who hurt him was actually Ye Bai, who had left long ago.
Li Cheng said angrily: "Liu Jie, you are such a despicable person, you don't keep your word.
Ye Bai looked at the pool of blood around him and sneered: "A beast like you still needs to be trustworthy?"
He stabbed with his sword again, and Li Cheng spent a lot of time opening the magic circle. Although he had spiritual stones to replenish his magic power, Ye Bai couldn't give him time.
Within a few moves, Ye Bai chopped off his arm. Seeing that he was about to kill him, Li Cheng looked at him with a sinister look and said secretly that the magic circle was not completely completed yet, and the blood sacrifice was not enough so he could only force it by himself. Summoned.
Li Cheng used his remaining spiritual power to force Ye Bai back and roared: "Even if you die, I will be buried with you."
Then Li Cheng rushed towards the center of the array like crazy. The red light emitted by the array was even more coquettish, absorbing Li Cheng's blood crazily.
Ye Bai wanted to stop it but it was too late. The Qingfeng Sword slashed away and was directly reflected by the magic circle.
Li Cheng yelled crazily in the formation: "If it weren't for you, I would be dead. Now that I can't live, you have to die."
"puff."
At this time, his body was spurting blood crazily, and the demonic energy was rising continuously in the center of the array. Ye Bai hurriedly asked: "Is there nothing I can do, Second Master?"
"With your current strength, there is really nothing you can do. You can only see what the hell the blood sacrifice will bring. In fact, you still have a chance to run now."
The second master glanced at him and waited for Ye Bai's choice.
"If my mother-in-law were not in the village, I would leave in the face of an unknown presence, but I must solve the matter this time. I will not be allowed to escape either personally or in my practice." Ye Bai said firmly.
"Courage is the most rare thing for human beings, but as the owner of the Donghuang Bell, if you don't even have this courage, it will only prove that I have misjudged the person. You are very good!"
The second master looked at Ye Bai with admiration, and then said with a smile: "Don't worry, second master, I won't let you die so easily. Let's wait and see what happens."
At this time, the demonic energy swept through the formation, and the demonic energy rotated and gathered to form a little baby, with a bull's head and two horns, wearing a dark red coat, and a pair of ice-blue eyes scanning everyone on the field.
When Ye Bai's eyes met his, his heart started to tremble.
Li Cheng was already dying at the side, but he still grinned happily when he saw the little baby coming out.
