Marry a eunuch to catch demons

Chapter 68 The Phantom of the Ballroom

Xie Zhen had just restrained Yasha Hongji to the ground, and when he turned his head, he saw Ye Ge was about to jump down from the wall in a hurry. Even though he knew that the earth wall was not too high, Xie Zhen's heart skipped a beat In a few steps, Shu Er rushed to the wall and caught the impudent little pigeon.

"Why are you doing such nonsense, the wall is also jumping casually!"

Ye Ge only wanted to grab the fairy cauldron quickly, but she would have thought that she would fall into Xie Zhen's arms as soon as she jumped off. Grabbing Xie Zhen's arm, he shouted, "Sir, Wang'an wants to use the fairy cauldron!"

As soon as Ye Ge's words fell, the old Taoist Wang'an in the room had already shivered and crawled to the side of the fairy cauldron, and was about to touch the purple gold fairy cauldron, but Xie Zhen didn't even want to look at him, With a light wave of the half stick in his hand, the fairy cauldron flew out and hit the ground heavily, breaking into several pieces.

"Ah! My cauldron, my cauldron!" Seeing this, old Taoist Wang An immediately wailed in pain.

Ye Ge was also startled by the sound of the fairy cauldron falling to the ground, and looked up at Xie Zhen's face with a guilty conscience: "Sir... I'm just in a hurry, and I'm not very high..."

"Isn't it high enough to jump? If you fall, won't it hurt?" Xie Zhen snorted coldly, seeing Ye Ge's cautious appearance, he couldn't say anything heavy, so he had to put him on the floor on the ground.But the arm was still tightly wrapped around his waist like a punishment.

Ye Ge let him hold her and rubbed her head on Xie Zhen's shoulder. Taking advantage of her husband's complexion getting better, she immediately changed the topic: "Sir, let's go find that Niu Er Er quickly and interrogate him clearly."

Xie Zhen sighed helplessly, knowing that he had gone too far just now, so he tapped the tip of his nose lightly, and then put a restraint on the still wailing old Taoist Wang'an with his backhand, and then he held Ye Ge and looked at the victim. Niu Er, who was scared and shrank in the corner.

Niu Er Er was really stunned by this sudden change. He didn't dare to breathe a breath. After seeing Xie Zhen and Xie Zhen walking towards him, he immediately waved his hands and shouted: "It's none of my business, I don't care." Get to know them!"

Xie Zhen didn't intend to embarrass this person, but he wanted to get news from him, so he simply lowered his face and asked sharply: "It's none of your business? Tell me, these thirty altars of beast souls , where did it come from?"

Niu Er'er's face froze, but he was an honest man after all, and now he was scared out of his wits, how could he dare to lie: "Yes, I found it from the cellar of this house!"

"I, my yard has been rented out for several years, but it suddenly caught fire two years ago, and it was burnt to such a dilapidated state... A while ago, when I was free, I thought about repairing it. I didn't expect that such a big cellar would be dug out from the ground! That beast soul was found in it..."

This Niu Er Er really can't lie, even Ye Ge can hear the cover-up in his words: "Then there are other things in the cellar besides the beast soul?"

Niu Er Er's face was even more ugly, he hesitated for a long time and couldn't speak: "There are... and..."

"Okay," Xie Zhen interrupted him directly, and said coldly, "You can take us to the cellar directly."

"I, I," Niu Er Er hesitated for a moment, but still afraid of Xie Zhen's power, he agreed tremblingly: "Okay, it's over there."

With that said, he slowly stood up from the corner of the wall, leaning against the base of the wall and walking to the pile of bricks while guarding against Xie Zhen.

Xie Zhen didn't need him to do anything, he directly lifted the half-armed stick and swung the pile of bricks away, exposing the big collapsed hole underneath.

Niu Er Er trembled again from the fright of the movement, managed not to fall directly to the ground, stretched out his hand to support the wall and said, "Yes, yes, this is here."

Xie Zhen led Ye Ge to the big hole. This time, the lighting charm drawn by Ye Ge did not go out again, and soon illuminated the cellar.

"Let's go down and have a look." After Xie Zhen was sure there was no danger, he jumped into the cellar first with Ye Ge in his arms, but he was not at ease leaving the three of them up there, and the half-cock moved slightly, and the white smoke flew up. It became a chain, pulling the three of them down.

The cellar was really not small, almost as big as the yard on the ground, even with the illumination of the spell, it still looked very dark, like a faint black mist.And on the walls closer to them, one could vaguely see that they were covered with faded spells like those under a temple in a mountain village.

Ye Ge was about to step forward to take a closer look, but he didn't expect that as soon as he took a step, he bumped into many things under his feet. He looked down and saw that the bottom of the cellar was actually covered with broken porcelain pieces, which seemed to be a lot of beast souls What remains of the broken altar.

"I, I found the beast soul here. When I came down, these were already broken. It took me a long time to find the thirty altars intact." Niu Er Er was afraid that Xie Zhen would treat him again, so he simply put the My own discoveries have said: "Also, and...ahead, there are a few dead people."

"Dead people?" Since entering "Yasha Tu", Ye Ge has almost become numb to dead bodies, and now he can't be afraid when he hears them again.

And Xie Zhen was even more straightforward, a few wisps of white smoke filled with light rose up, driving away the already weak black mist, and completely illuminating the entire cellar.

Ye Ge was not in the mood to look at the spells on the wall at this moment, and his eyes fell directly on the three corpses lying sideways among the broken porcelain not far away.

Xie Zhen lightly shook his hand, Bai Yan cleared a path for them, and the two walked cautiously to the corpse.

The three corpses seemed to have been dead for a long time, but because of the environment in the cellar, the clothes on their bodies were still in good condition, and the corpses were not completely decomposed, but they could no longer be seen.

The two of them fell to the same side. Judging from their clothes, they looked like ordinary country villagers. Ye Ge couldn't help but think of the village in the middle of the mountain. Now there are various clues that these two people probably came from there.

As for the remaining one...Ye Ge looked at it carefully. He was wearing a navy blue robe, with a bun on his head, and a hairpin of invisible texture stuck in it.Since the establishment of the new government, not many people wear long braids, let alone this kind of bun.

So, unless...he is a Taoist priest.

Ye Ge guessed, turned his head involuntarily, and wanted to compare Wang An's attire, but he didn't want to find that the old man was looking at the dead body on the ground in disbelief with a terrified expression on his face.

Come on, not only can it be confirmed that this is a Taoist priest, but also a Taoist priest related to Wang'an Taoism.

Seeing this, Xie Zhen urged the white smoke in his hand, dragged Wang Ansheng over and asked, "Do you recognize this person?"

Wang An's face turned bitter, he knew that he couldn't do it anymore, so he just nodded: "Yes, I recognize him..."

"Who is he?" Ye Ge looked up at Wang An's clothes, which were indeed similar to those of the male corpse.

"He is..." The wrinkles on Wang An's face were almost huddled together, and he said with difficulty: "He is my master, and I recognize the hairpin on his head."

Xie Zhen was a little impatient with his hesitant rhetoric, put half of his stick to his lips, took a light breath, and a faint white smoke enveloped Wang An's side with a threat.

"I don't want to waste any more time with you. How much do you know? Let's weigh it yourself."

"I, what did I say..." Old Taoist Wang An was still struggling, his Taoist robe was tightly bound by white smoke, making him unable to even move a little bit: "I really don't know how Master died here. "

Xie Zhen didn't speak, but just hugged Ye Ge, looked at Wang An with slender eyes, and stared at him in a cold sweat.

After a long while, he finally said, "You're almost dead, aren't you?"

Wang An's eyes opened wide, his broken lips trembled, and he didn't answer or deny it.

"That's why you're in a hurry to buy a beast soul," Xie Zhen said again, giving Wang An a head start on what Wang An didn't want to say: "But who told you that a beast soul can last your life?"

The answer is self-evident, Ye Ge looked down at the dead body on the ground wearing Taoist robes, Wang An's master.

"No, he didn't tell me." At this time, Wang An seemed to be discouraged, and his whole body looked dry and lifeless: "I found it myself."

Wang'an Taoist practiced in Wanheng Temple since he was ten years old.

His master, named Chang Ya, is a middle-aged Taoist priest who doesn't like to show his face very much.

At first, life in this Taoist temple was normal. Wang An learned Taoism from Chang Ya and other Taoist priests, and occasionally went down the mountain with his uncle and uncle to exorcise ghosts and perform a few religious rituals.In fact, he is not completely ignorant of Taoism, but after a long time, he gradually learned the tricks of defrauding people and money, and he wasted in practice.

This kind of life has been going on for decades, with many ups and downs in the middle, the truly capable people died, and the Taoist temple slowly fell into Wang'an's hands.

It was also at this time that Wang An found out that Master Chang Ya started to go on a long journey, and he would come back in three to five days for a short period of time, but he might not be seen for several months in a long period of time.Even when he came back, he locked himself in the room in the name of practicing, and no one knew what he was doing.

Until one day, Wang An came back from his mission, looked at his reflection in the pool, and realized that he was over sixty years old.And his master is also over a hundred years old.

But...he was twiddling his beard, looked at Chang Ya's closed door, and was surprised to find that his master, as if his appearance hadn't changed a few years ago, didn't look like a centenarian at all. .

Could it be that he has practiced some miraculous power?

Wang An's mind started to move, no one is not afraid of old age, no one is not afraid of death, if there is a way to live forever, of course he wants it.

So, in private, he began to secretly investigate Chang Ya's room, as well as the exercises he practiced.

"I found that... when he practiced, he always supplemented it with some white silk and white qi. Later, he managed to steal a wisp of it, only to realize that it was actually the qi drawn from a living person."

From then on, Wang'an old man concluded that Na Changya was using his luck to continue his life.He was inherently greedy, and he didn't feel that there was any problem in doing so, so he wanted to do it wholeheartedly, but he suffered from not knowing the method.

And not long after that day, Chang Ya left the Taoist temple again.

After Chang Ya left, Wang An lost his scruples and broke into his room directly to search, but he still didn't find any secret exercises, only a few jars of beast souls.

Old Taoist Wang An has no other options, he can only hope that Chang Ya will come back again, no matter whether he threatens him or pleases him, he will always use that method.

Unexpectedly, Chang Ya didn't wait, but let him wait for Xie Chongzu who was sucked by luck.
