Beautiful apprentice dressed as a demon
Chapter 23 Master, I'll Take You Away
Before Li Wenzhao could take the Ghost Bride in, Jiang Huai was about to stand up.
"Wait, what are you in a hurry for?" The old Taoist pressed his shoulder and whispered, "You go in now, do you know what they are going to do?"
Can this be tolerated? !Jiang Huai blocked his hand and said, "If it's a little later, the room should be finished."
"Why, you don't want double cultivation, you care about others," the old Taoist said, and suddenly understood something, stopped Jiang Huai, and said, "Oh, I understand, this female ghost is probably trying to use Li Wenzhao to absorb mana. .”
"Shuangxiu just dragged it to the cave, it's fine, what kind of marriage are you doing?" Jiang Huai didn't understand.
The old Taoist smiled lowly: "You are still young, you don't know what the little girl is thinking, so it's hard to guess."
Jianghuai: "..."
He didn't want to talk nonsense with this old Taoist priest, the task was important, the task was important, so he comforted himself, as long as he got these 1000 points, he could go directly to the robbery when he returned to Jiuyi Mountain.
"Hey, kid, you rushed in so recklessly, did you think about how to deal with this group of ghosts?" the old Taoist asked him.
Jiang Huai resentfully: "No."
"That's it." The old Taoist gave him a white look, "I'll teach you a way, your spirit body will go out of your body and mix with these ghosts, won't it?"
"I won't get out of my body." Jiang Huai was even more embarrassing now, his cultivation was not yet able to get out of his body.
"Bullshit, I'll call you out." After the old Taoist finished speaking, he pulled him, tugged and pushed, and the palm wind hit his chest. For a moment, Jiang Huai suddenly felt a sense of ecstasy. When he opened his eyes again, he unexpectedly Already half-floating in the air, while the physical body fell to the ground, as if asleep.
"Get in," the old Taoist said to him, "Go and see what's going on with Li Wenzhao."
According to Jiang Huai's words, he pointed his toes, and his whole body was as light as a swallow, and he landed on the snow-covered road, surrounded by a cloud of souls dressed in red, his figure flickered, and he was mixed into it.
The ghosts followed behind Li Wenzhao, surrounded him and walked towards the courtyard. He was holding a red ribbon in his hand, connected with the ghost bride, and left shallow footprints where he walked.
On both sides of the house, there were two ghost boys guarding each side. When Jiang Huai was about to follow in, they suddenly sniffed with their noses and said, "It's alive."
Jiang Huai's heart tightened, but luckily 007 got a little crow out of nowhere at this moment, and the crow flapped its wings and flew around in the courtyard where the ghosts gathered, abruptly disturbing the attention of the two ghost boys.
Jiang Huai took advantage of the chaos and stepped into the threshold, and it was considered a muddle.
After entering the house, he looked around a little, and found that the house was much larger than what he saw from the outside, and there was also the Linyuan Theater Building, where a group of ghosts were everywhere. After seeing Li Wenzhao and the Ghost Bride, At that time, they all backed out of one way.
What kind of marriage method is this?Jianghuai waited and watched for a long time, but he didn't see the hall he imagined. Shouldn't he worship the hall first?
While he was thinking, he heard the two ghosts whispering in front of him: "This time, the ghost lady has assembled a troupe to celebrate the wedding."
Ghost lady?Jiang Huai's eyes fell on the ghost bride who hadn't seen her face.He thought to himself, this marriage has to listen to opera, it's strange to enjoy it.
"How many times has this been married? I don't know how long the son can last this time," another ghost said again, "I have to go back and forth from the ground, and I am exhausted. .”
"Me too, we've been acting with her for long enough, I hope this is the last time."
The two ghosts walked and talked, and it seemed that they were going to advance to the theater.Jiang Huai hesitated, but also followed, where Li Wenzhao had already led Ghost Lady up to the second floor.
On the second floor of the theatrical building, the lights were scattered, casting a dim light.
The ghosts followed into the theater one by one. Outside, the suona was beating drums, and the noise continued, with no intention of stopping.
In my mind, the old Taoist's voice came in vain. It must have used some magic to connect with him: "I have a situation here, you wait and see what happens."
"What's the situation there?" Jiang Huai wanted to ask.
However, the old Taoist didn't say much, he only heard a vague "chasing", and the voice stopped abruptly, which should have been interrupted.
Now it's all right, I really have to rely on myself, this Taoist priest is really unreliable.Jiang Huai glanced at the ghosts pressing up around him, not knowing what to do.
The second floor is spacious. Looking down from the top, you can see the whole stage. In the center of the stage, there are a few people in costumes standing in the center of the stage. With their water sleeves up, they leap lightly and appear on the stage amidst the sound of gongs and drums.
The faces of those actors were heavily painted, and they couldn't tell if it was a human or a ghost. Jiang Huai only took a look, then turned back to Li Wenzhao.
Looking from a diagonal direction, one can see Li Wenzhao and Gui Niangzi sitting on two grand master chairs, both of them have their eyes fixed on the theater pool under the stage, staring straight at the low table between them , The candles on the table were covered in a cover, and the word "Happy" was pasted on the cover.
Jiang Huai found a convenient place to observe, stopped, and kept staring.
Li Wenzhao was like a puppet being pulled by a string, sitting there motionless, looking quiet, Jiang Huai always felt that it was okay to watch at first, but after watching too much, he always felt that something was wrong, the blood on Li Wenzhao's face was all over the place. No, he was pale and a little shocked, the candlelight on the table was imprinted on his face, which made his face slightly rosy.
Like a paper prick.
Downstairs, the sound of gongs and drums matched the sound of the zither, and the playing was fast and smooth. After several observations, Jiang Huai finally confirmed that those actors were neither human nor ghosts, but puppets made of corpses that were about to decay , Their faces were covered with thick powder, so at first glance, there was nothing unusual about them, but if you looked closely, you could even see rotten fingers turned outward under the raised sleeves.
They are like puppets connected by strings, using their rotting corpses to dance to the tune.
Jiang Huai felt sick for a while, he felt that Li Wenzhao should also be controlled by the same thing, that's why he was so abnormal.
As soon as the sound of the huqin sounded here, the voice of the old Taoist came again in his mind: "How is the situation over there?" Hearing his voice, he was a little panting, and he didn't know if he had just fought.
In his mind, Jiang Huai briefly explained the situation here to him with his spiritual sense.
After listening to the old Taoist priest, he suddenly realized: "Those singers may be the people who this ghost lady captured and married before. After draining their energy, they will be made into puppets and let her manipulate. She likes to act and paint by herself."
"Why didn't I see this kind of theater here when I came here?" Jiang Huai asked doubts in his heart, "Am I in the enchantment she made?"
"Well, that's right, she's become smarter," said the old Taoist priest. "She has set up illusion barriers around the entire village. The scenes you see are all fake, so just don't believe them."
Jiang Huai: "Then what should I do next?"
The old Taoist: "You continue to keep an eye on Li Wenzhao, and don't scare the snake until it's necessary."
"What about you?" Jiang Huai asked him.
The old Taoist said: "I am setting up the formation. I will tell you when I finish the formation. Then you can act."
Jiang Huai wanted to say something more, but the old Taoist obviously didn't want to listen to the long-winded words, so he directly closed his consciousness and went to work on his own.
Right now, the famous scenes from "The Romance of the West Chamber" are still being played out in the theater pool one after another. Jiang Huai wants to lean on Li Wenzhao, but there are too many ghosts around him, he is squeezed in the middle, unable to move an inch. In the end, he can only use his spare time to move. Guang glanced at Li Wenzhao, and saw that he was still sitting there leisurely, his eyes never moving away from the actor.
The play stopped, and the cheers came and went.
The ghost lady was probably satisfied with what she heard, she stood up suddenly, and wanted to leave, the ghosts next to her hadn't woken up from the feast and applauded one after another, by the time the ghost lady had disappeared on the second floor.
Li Wenzhao was originally walking behind her, but for some reason, he stood at the corner, suddenly stopped and stopped moving.
Jiang Huai wanted to keep up, but the ghosts around him were pushing and shoving like a tide. He tried to squeeze out several times, but all ended in failure.
At this moment, some ghost knocked over the table and the candle holder, and the fire spread. At first, the ghosts tentatively tried to put out the fire with something, but soon found that the fire was no different than ordinary fire. As soon as the hand touched the flames, it was completely ignited, and the screams and wailings filled the whole theater building in an instant, and the ghosts in the audience rushed towards the door one after another, blocking the door for a while.
The ghost lady was still immersed in the beautiful dream she had created, and she didn't notice that Li Wenzhao had disappeared. She was humming the tune just now, and the corners of her lips raised an arc.
The theater building behind him was already on fire, and the ghosts had no mana, so they could only stumble and stumble to find their way out.
The fire quickly spread to the stage, and there were dense souls everywhere. Jiang Huai was trapped in a sea of flames. He wanted to escape, but was pushed and shoved by the ghosts behind him, sinking deeper and deeper.
The fire destroyed the roof, he looked around in a daze, and finally saw a familiar figure at the end of the sea of flames.
The surrounding scene no longer exists at this moment, and the flickering flames cannot make up the appearance of Li Wenzhao.
"Master!" Jiang Huai shouted.
However, Li Wenzhao just stood there, his pupils were covered in blackness, and only a little bit of fire could be reflected. He looked at Jiang Huai, as if he had completely lost consciousness, and did not make any reaction.
The clothes were quickly caught on fire, and Li Wenzhao was pushed to the corner in the continuous pushing and pushing, and Jiang Huai finally squeezed in front of him at this moment.
When he got close, he could find that his face had started to turn blue, and his eyes seemed to be immersed in a pool of black water, staring at Jiang Huai.
"Master, I will take you away." Emotions surged up, and the panic in his heart suddenly dissipated. In the panic, Jiang Huai grabbed Li Wenzhao's hand and wanted to take him away, but before he could grasp it firmly, Li Wenzhao Suddenly pushed him.
It was extremely dangerous for two people to stand at the top of the stairs. When he pushed like this, Jiang Huai immediately fell down the stairs because he couldn't bear the strength. Grasp.
Jiang Huai's eyes were black from the fall, but he gritted his teeth and managed to stand up.
He went upstream, but saw a burning ghost suddenly grabbed Li Wenzhao from behind, as if it had grabbed a life-saving straw, it grabbed Li Wenzhao's sleeve tightly.
The fire spread all over the body along the corner of the robe, and Jiang Huai panicked and shouted: "Master! Get out of here! Get out of here!"
However, Li Wenzhao turned a deaf ear to it, and had no intention of avoiding it at all. His gaze stayed on Jiang Huai's body for the last time, and then he fell down suddenly, turning into a human-shaped fireball.
"Master!" Jiang Huai staggered and wanted to rush up. He kicked the ghost next to him, but if he couldn't move, he tried to squeeze in, but in the end he could only be pushed out.
"Master! Li Wenzhao!" He yelled out loud, with a heavy heart, "Li Wenzhao, come out! Come out quickly!"
He still wanted to go up, but his eyes flickered suddenly, and when he opened his eyes again, the surrounding scene disappeared. What kind of theater building was where he was, and he returned to the original village entrance.
"I was almost discovered. Fortunately, I was quick and pulled your spirit body back." The old Taoist was bending down to look at him. "Didn't I tell you that you are in the enchantment she arranged?" , what you see are illusions? What are you calling?"
Thinking of the scene just now, Jiang Huai hurriedly went to look in the stockade. Sure enough, as the old Taoist said, there is no house. Everything here is exactly the same as the dilapidated stockade he saw at the beginning, and there is no burning at all. theater building.
The soft sedan stopped in front of a bamboo building, covered with spider webs, and even the red candle silk and satin I saw earlier seemed like an illusion.
But such a real feeling doesn't seem fake at all... Li Wenzhao pushed him down, and the feeling of falling to the ground was also real.
Jiang Huai ignored the old Taoist priest, with lingering fears in his heart, and kept saying irrelevant words: "Master, Master, he was burned to death, what to do, what to do... He didn't want to go with me just now, he Why don't you want to go with me?"
"Stinky boy, what are you crazy about!" The old Taoist gave him a hard head, "I said, you are in a fucking illusion, and the scenes are all fake, do you understand? Your master, it's okay, I understand ?!"
Jiang Huai was woken up by him, and only then did he feel that his body was soaked in cold sweat. He wondered if it was caused by being too nervous just now.
"Grandma, if you keep shouting like this, will the ghost lady find out that we are ghosts?" The old Taoist spat on the ground, and then said, "I have already set up the formation, and there are tracking talismans that can sense it." Go to the position of the female ghost, you go to Li Wenzhao, and I will go to another person."
"Who?" Jiang Huai asked absently.
The old Taoist: "Looking at her attire, it's probably from Fuxian Mountain Villa. She ran too fast, and I didn't catch up with her. If you see her, communicate with me directly with your spiritual sense and give her direction."
"The people from Fuxian Villa are here?" Jiang Huai thought of the voice transmission with him earlier, and he was sure that he was chasing someone.
"Hey, I guess it's Bai Miao. Bai Miao disappeared some time ago, and people from Fuxian Villa have been unable to contact her. If I rescue her together this time, won't the consultation fee be doubled?" The old Taoist touched Own beard, smiled.
Your mind is not on this.Jiang Huai thought to himself, how could someone who never came from Zhoushan be short of this little money?Although I thought so in my heart, but before I figured out the situation, I could only cooperate with him and continue acting.
"Bai Miao has a golden core stage cultivation, why is he here?" Jiang Huai asked following his topic.
"Then Li Wenzhao has a Mahayana cultivation base, how come he is here?" the old Taoist asked back.
"Master, he came here because he was injured." Jiang Huai argued.
"Then how do you know that Bai Miao is not injured?" The old Taoist snorted, unwilling to waste time with him on this topic, "You go to Li Wenzhao, and I'll catch Bai Miao. The two of you can get twice the result with half the effort."
Jiang Huai was stopped by his question and fell silent. 007 reminded him that the top priority now should be to rescue Li Wenzhao instead of delving into this issue. If what the old Taoist said is true, Bai Miao is also in this village, so that the side missions and main missions can be completed together.
It's a beautiful thing, so why not do it?
Jiang Huai agreed with it, and asked again: "What about the female ghost?"
Old Taoist: "This enchantment is used to hide your anger. You are no different from other ghosts in front of her. As long as you play enough, she will naturally not notice."
Jiang Huai understood what he meant: "I see."
"After we find someone, we will meet at the entrance of the stockade," said the old Taoist priest, and handed him a piece of talisman paper. "If there is an accident, just stick this on her. It will calm her down for a while, and the rest Wait till I come."
"En." Jiang Huai took the talisman paper and stuffed it into the treasure bag.
"Remember to stick it between her eyebrows," the old Taoist added, "or the heart, don't lose it."
Jianghuai said "hmm" again.
"Next, we will split up," said the old Taoist priest. "Take it easy and don't be distracted. With Li Wenzhao's ability, how could he die so easily? What you see might be a clone or something."
After the two finished talking, they broke up.Jiang Huai walked in the direction of the soft sedan chair, while the old Taoist priest went southwest. There was a place where there was black air before. There may be monsters or the like, or the central point of gathering Yin. I have to go and see it to know.
In the middle of the night, Jiang Huai lingered close to the soft sedan chair, but before he touched it, he bumped into something head-on with a "boom" sound, and when he stretched out his hand, he could even see a ripple in the place where he stretched out.
A layer of enchantment that is almost transparent like a film is caged here, and Jiang Huai did not hesitate to step in directly. This time, his eyes turned into a theater building again, and the fire spread, and there were constant wailing inside.
The ghosts were burned screaming and crying, screaming one after another, some ghosts directly smashed open the window, jumped out from inside, fell down and rolled, and some even had no time to react, they were burnt into a fireball and rolled down the stairs Fall, pushed down a piece.
There are flames everywhere, floating in the wind, unsteady, stretching into one piece.
Jiang Huai wanted to go up to check the situation, but this time he was using his real body. As soon as he approached, Da Mao suddenly touched the sparks. For a moment, the fire spread upward from the corner of his clothes at an extremely fast speed. Throw it on the ground, and step on it a few times before it goes out.
The fire is extinguished, and this big fashion can no longer be had.Jiang Huai clapped his hands, and the pungent burnt smell filled the air. At this moment, he suddenly realized an important problem. When his clothes were burned just now, he didn't feel it at all. The fire seemed to be unable to burn his body. body, but can burn his clothes.
Then how could Li Wenzhao be burned?Thinking about it this way, he suddenly felt that what the old Taoist said made sense.
Outside the building, a voice suddenly shouted: "The groom is burned to death! The groom is burned to death!"
Jiang Huai wanted to follow up to see the situation, when suddenly a shadow flashed past him, the speed was as fast as the wind, "The theater building is on fire?!"
The ghost lady quickly moved to the front of the theater, wrapped her sleeves and robes, and the fire in the building suddenly extinguished, "Why did the theater catch fire?" She asked a few escaped ghosts.
"No, I don't know, it seems that the candlestick was knocked over." The ghosts replied cautiously.
"Where is the groom's body?" The ghost lady asked again, "Have you seen him die with your own eyes?"
"The bridegroom's body is inside," replied the ghost, "and we all saw him burnt."
"Go, find him for me." Following the order of the ghost lady, several little ghosts rushed into the building immediately, swept up and down, and soon came out dragging a charred corpse.
Fire is a will-o’-the-wisp, different from ordinary fire, it is only effective for ghosts, and after being burned, the soul will be dissipated immediately. The groom is a flesh/body, so it is impossible to burn him.The ghost lady stared at the human-shaped coke, and suddenly said: "Go and call that female doctor over here."
There was chaos outside, and the escaped ghosts gathered in front of the theater building, watching around.
Jiang Huai was isolated and couldn't squeeze in. I have to say that this old Taoist priest still has two brushes. He squeezed like this, but no one noticed anything wrong with him at all, and even some ghosts thought he was crowded too much. , made room for him.
Finally, he saw a group of human-shaped corpses on the ground through the slits, but it was a pity that they were so burnt that nothing could be seen except the shape.
Jiang Huai just glanced at it, but he couldn't recover for a while. After thinking about it carefully, he faintly felt that something was wrong.
This fire seems to be unable to burn people. If the blackness is really serious, shouldn't he be burned when he just touched the fire?
But he saw Li Wenzhao being burned again with his own eyes. Could it be that he was really a clone as the old Taoist said?So, where is his real body?
He quietly withdrew from the group of ghosts, only to see that the ghost messengers sent out to call the female doctor had already returned.
Behind them was a woman with black-haired hosta and white clothes. The waving lamp shadow stretched her shadow extremely long. When she passed by Jiang Huai, she suddenly paused, then turned her face to look at him.
There was a hint of astonishment in her eyes, but it soon returned to normal. Jiang Huai thought she had noticed something abnormal, so he quickly stepped back, using the ghost shadows gathered together to hide himself.
"Recover him, I want to know if this person is Li Wenzhao." The ghost lady's voice was very cold, not open to comment.
"It's all burnt like this, how can I restore it? You really think of me as a Daluo god, and let me help you find the bones, and then let me restore the charred corpses. I can't see the outside." The woman leaned over and observed the charred corpses on the ground. The corpse, the burning smell rushed over.
The ghost lady repeated in a cold voice: "Recover him, otherwise don't even think about going out."
"You will threaten me with this kind of thing, I can't recover," the woman said reluctantly, "Recovery is not impossible, but it needs to use essence, you can give me some essence , if there are enough spirits, the corpse can be recovered."
"What kind of spirit do you want?" the ghost lady asked.
"That's it," the woman pointed at where Jiang Huai was standing with her fingertips, and said, "He's pretty good."
The author has something to say:
Jiang Huai: Damn this task can add 1000 points, I will take Li Wenzhao away even if I risk my life today! !
Li Wenzhao's inner os: Apprentice, he actually cares about me so much (a little touch ing~)
"Wait, what are you in a hurry for?" The old Taoist pressed his shoulder and whispered, "You go in now, do you know what they are going to do?"
Can this be tolerated? !Jiang Huai blocked his hand and said, "If it's a little later, the room should be finished."
"Why, you don't want double cultivation, you care about others," the old Taoist said, and suddenly understood something, stopped Jiang Huai, and said, "Oh, I understand, this female ghost is probably trying to use Li Wenzhao to absorb mana. .”
"Shuangxiu just dragged it to the cave, it's fine, what kind of marriage are you doing?" Jiang Huai didn't understand.
The old Taoist smiled lowly: "You are still young, you don't know what the little girl is thinking, so it's hard to guess."
Jianghuai: "..."
He didn't want to talk nonsense with this old Taoist priest, the task was important, the task was important, so he comforted himself, as long as he got these 1000 points, he could go directly to the robbery when he returned to Jiuyi Mountain.
"Hey, kid, you rushed in so recklessly, did you think about how to deal with this group of ghosts?" the old Taoist asked him.
Jiang Huai resentfully: "No."
"That's it." The old Taoist gave him a white look, "I'll teach you a way, your spirit body will go out of your body and mix with these ghosts, won't it?"
"I won't get out of my body." Jiang Huai was even more embarrassing now, his cultivation was not yet able to get out of his body.
"Bullshit, I'll call you out." After the old Taoist finished speaking, he pulled him, tugged and pushed, and the palm wind hit his chest. For a moment, Jiang Huai suddenly felt a sense of ecstasy. When he opened his eyes again, he unexpectedly Already half-floating in the air, while the physical body fell to the ground, as if asleep.
"Get in," the old Taoist said to him, "Go and see what's going on with Li Wenzhao."
According to Jiang Huai's words, he pointed his toes, and his whole body was as light as a swallow, and he landed on the snow-covered road, surrounded by a cloud of souls dressed in red, his figure flickered, and he was mixed into it.
The ghosts followed behind Li Wenzhao, surrounded him and walked towards the courtyard. He was holding a red ribbon in his hand, connected with the ghost bride, and left shallow footprints where he walked.
On both sides of the house, there were two ghost boys guarding each side. When Jiang Huai was about to follow in, they suddenly sniffed with their noses and said, "It's alive."
Jiang Huai's heart tightened, but luckily 007 got a little crow out of nowhere at this moment, and the crow flapped its wings and flew around in the courtyard where the ghosts gathered, abruptly disturbing the attention of the two ghost boys.

Ghost lady?Jiang Huai's eyes fell on the ghost bride who hadn't seen her face.He thought to himself, this marriage has to listen to opera, it's strange to enjoy it.
"How many times has this been married? I don't know how long the son can last this time," another ghost said again, "I have to go back and forth from the ground, and I am exhausted. .”
"Me too, we've been acting with her for long enough, I hope this is the last time."
The two ghosts walked and talked, and it seemed that they were going to advance to the theater.Jiang Huai hesitated, but also followed, where Li Wenzhao had already led Ghost Lady up to the second floor.
On the second floor of the theatrical building, the lights were scattered, casting a dim light.

Jiang Huai found a convenient place to observe, stopped, and kept staring.
Li Wenzhao was like a puppet being pulled by a string, sitting there motionless, looking quiet, Jiang Huai always felt that it was okay to watch at first, but after watching too much, he always felt that something was wrong, the blood on Li Wenzhao's face was all over the place.

Li Wenzhao was originally walking behind her, but for some reason, he stood at the corner, suddenly stopped and stopped moving.
Jiang Huai wanted to keep up, but the ghosts around him were pushing and shoving like a tide. He tried to squeeze out several times, but all ended in failure.

The theater building behind him was already on fire, and the ghosts had no mana, so they could only stumble and stumble to find their way out.
The fire quickly spread to the stage, and there were dense souls everywhere. Jiang Huai was trapped in a sea of flames. He wanted to escape, but was pushed and shoved by the ghosts behind him, sinking deeper and deeper.
The fire destroyed the roof, he looked around in a daze, and finally saw a familiar figure at the end of the sea of flames.
The surrounding scene no longer exists at this moment, and the flickering flames cannot make up the appearance of Li Wenzhao.
"Master!" Jiang Huai shouted.
However, Li Wenzhao just stood there, his pupils were covered in blackness, and only a little bit of fire could be reflected. He looked at Jiang Huai, as if he had completely lost consciousness, and did not make any reaction.
The clothes were quickly caught on fire, and Li Wenzhao was pushed to the corner in the continuous pushing and pushing, and Jiang Huai finally squeezed in front of him at this moment.
When he got close, he could find that his face had started to turn blue, and his eyes seemed to be immersed in a pool of black water, staring at Jiang Huai.
"Master, I will take you away." Emotions surged up, and the panic in his heart suddenly dissipated. In the panic, Jiang Huai grabbed Li Wenzhao's hand and wanted to take him away, but before he could grasp it firmly, Li Wenzhao Suddenly pushed him.
It was extremely dangerous for two people to stand at the top of the stairs. When he pushed like this, Jiang Huai immediately fell down the stairs because he couldn't bear the strength. Grasp.
Jiang Huai's eyes were black from the fall, but he gritted his teeth and managed to stand up.
He went upstream, but saw a burning ghost suddenly grabbed Li Wenzhao from behind, as if it had grabbed a life-saving straw, it grabbed Li Wenzhao's sleeve tightly.
The fire spread all over the body along the corner of the robe, and Jiang Huai panicked and shouted: "Master! Get out of here! Get out of here!"
However, Li Wenzhao turned a deaf ear to it, and had no intention of avoiding it at all. His gaze stayed on Jiang Huai's body for the last time, and then he fell down suddenly, turning into a human-shaped fireball.
"Master!" Jiang Huai staggered and wanted to rush up. He kicked the ghost next to him, but if he couldn't move, he tried to squeeze in, but in the end he could only be pushed out.
"Master! Li Wenzhao!" He yelled out loud, with a heavy heart, "Li Wenzhao, come out! Come out quickly!"
He still wanted to go up, but his eyes flickered suddenly, and when he opened his eyes again, the surrounding scene disappeared. What kind of theater building was where he was, and he returned to the original village entrance.
"I was almost discovered. Fortunately, I was quick and pulled your spirit body back." The old Taoist was bending down to look at him. "Didn't I tell you that you are in the enchantment she arranged?" , what you see are illusions? What are you calling?"
Thinking of the scene just now, Jiang Huai hurriedly went to look in the stockade. Sure enough, as the old Taoist said, there is no house. Everything here is exactly the same as the dilapidated stockade he saw at the beginning, and there is no burning at all. theater building.
The soft sedan stopped in front of a bamboo building, covered with spider webs, and even the red candle silk and satin I saw earlier seemed like an illusion.
But such a real feeling doesn't seem fake at all... Li Wenzhao pushed him down, and the feeling of falling to the ground was also real.
Jiang Huai ignored the old Taoist priest, with lingering fears in his heart, and kept saying irrelevant words: "Master, Master, he was burned to death, what to do, what to do... He didn't want to go with me just now, he Why don't you want to go with me?"
"Stinky boy, what are you crazy about!" The old Taoist gave him a hard head, "I said, you are in a fucking illusion, and the scenes are all fake, do you understand? Your master, it's okay, I understand ?!"
Jiang Huai was woken up by him, and only then did he feel that his body was soaked in cold sweat. He wondered if it was caused by being too nervous just now.
"Grandma, if you keep shouting like this, will the ghost lady find out that we are ghosts?" The old Taoist spat on the ground, and then said, "I have already set up the formation, and there are tracking talismans that can sense it." Go to the position of the female ghost, you go to Li Wenzhao, and I will go to another person."
"Who?" Jiang Huai asked absently.
The old Taoist: "Looking at her attire, it's probably from Fuxian Mountain Villa. She ran too fast, and I didn't catch up with her. If you see her, communicate with me directly with your spiritual sense and give her direction."
"The people from Fuxian Villa are here?" Jiang Huai thought of the voice transmission with him earlier, and he was sure that he was chasing someone.
"Hey, I guess it's Bai Miao. Bai Miao disappeared some time ago, and people from Fuxian Villa have been unable to contact her. If I rescue her together this time, won't the consultation fee be doubled?" The old Taoist touched Own beard, smiled.
Your mind is not on this.Jiang Huai thought to himself, how could someone who never came from Zhoushan be short of this little money?Although I thought so in my heart, but before I figured out the situation, I could only cooperate with him and continue acting.
"Bai Miao has a golden core stage cultivation, why is he here?" Jiang Huai asked following his topic.
"Then Li Wenzhao has a Mahayana cultivation base, how come he is here?" the old Taoist asked back.
"Master, he came here because he was injured." Jiang Huai argued.
"Then how do you know that Bai Miao is not injured?" The old Taoist snorted, unwilling to waste time with him on this topic, "You go to Li Wenzhao, and I'll catch Bai Miao. The two of you can get twice the result with half the effort."
Jiang Huai was stopped by his question and fell silent. 007 reminded him that the top priority now should be to rescue Li Wenzhao instead of delving into this issue. If what the old Taoist said is true, Bai Miao is also in this village, so that the side missions and main missions can be completed together.
It's a beautiful thing, so why not do it?
Jiang Huai agreed with it, and asked again: "What about the female ghost?"
Old Taoist: "This enchantment is used to hide your anger. You are no different from other ghosts in front of her. As long as you play enough, she will naturally not notice."
Jiang Huai understood what he meant: "I see."
"After we find someone, we will meet at the entrance of the stockade," said the old Taoist priest, and handed him a piece of talisman paper. "If there is an accident, just stick this on her. It will calm her down for a while, and the rest Wait till I come."
"En." Jiang Huai took the talisman paper and stuffed it into the treasure bag.
"Remember to stick it between her eyebrows," the old Taoist added, "or the heart, don't lose it."
Jianghuai said "hmm" again.
"Next, we will split up," said the old Taoist priest. "Take it easy and don't be distracted. With Li Wenzhao's ability, how could he die so easily? What you see might be a clone or something."
After the two finished talking, they broke up.Jiang Huai walked in the direction of the soft sedan chair, while the old Taoist priest went southwest. There was a place where there was black air before. There may be monsters or the like, or the central point of gathering Yin. I have to go and see it to know.
In the middle of the night, Jiang Huai lingered close to the soft sedan chair, but before he touched it, he bumped into something head-on with a "boom" sound, and when he stretched out his hand, he could even see a ripple in the place where he stretched out.
A layer of enchantment that is almost transparent like a film is caged here, and Jiang Huai did not hesitate to step in directly. This time, his eyes turned into a theater building again, and the fire spread, and there were constant wailing inside.
The ghosts were burned screaming and crying, screaming one after another, some ghosts directly smashed open the window, jumped out from inside, fell down and rolled, and some even had no time to react, they were burnt into a fireball and rolled down the stairs Fall, pushed down a piece.
There are flames everywhere, floating in the wind, unsteady, stretching into one piece.
Jiang Huai wanted to go up to check the situation, but this time he was using his real body. As soon as he approached, Da Mao suddenly touched the sparks. For a moment, the fire spread upward from the corner of his clothes at an extremely fast speed. Throw it on the ground, and step on it a few times before it goes out.
The fire is extinguished, and this big fashion can no longer be had.Jiang Huai clapped his hands, and the pungent burnt smell filled the air. At this moment, he suddenly realized an important problem. When his clothes were burned just now, he didn't feel it at all. The fire seemed to be unable to burn his body. body, but can burn his clothes.
Then how could Li Wenzhao be burned?Thinking about it this way, he suddenly felt that what the old Taoist said made sense.
Outside the building, a voice suddenly shouted: "The groom is burned to death! The groom is burned to death!"
Jiang Huai wanted to follow up to see the situation, when suddenly a shadow flashed past him, the speed was as fast as the wind, "The theater building is on fire?!"
The ghost lady quickly moved to the front of the theater, wrapped her sleeves and robes, and the fire in the building suddenly extinguished, "Why did the theater catch fire?" She asked a few escaped ghosts.
"No, I don't know, it seems that the candlestick was knocked over." The ghosts replied cautiously.
"Where is the groom's body?" The ghost lady asked again, "Have you seen him die with your own eyes?"
"The bridegroom's body is inside," replied the ghost, "and we all saw him burnt."
"Go, find him for me." Following the order of the ghost lady, several little ghosts rushed into the building immediately, swept up and down, and soon came out dragging a charred corpse.
Fire is a will-o’-the-wisp, different from ordinary fire, it is only effective for ghosts, and after being burned, the soul will be dissipated immediately. The groom is a flesh/body, so it is impossible to burn him.The ghost lady stared at the human-shaped coke, and suddenly said: "Go and call that female doctor over here."
There was chaos outside, and the escaped ghosts gathered in front of the theater building, watching around.
Jiang Huai was isolated and couldn't squeeze in. I have to say that this old Taoist priest still has two brushes. He squeezed like this, but no one noticed anything wrong with him at all, and even some ghosts thought he was crowded too much. , made room for him.
Finally, he saw a group of human-shaped corpses on the ground through the slits, but it was a pity that they were so burnt that nothing could be seen except the shape.
Jiang Huai just glanced at it, but he couldn't recover for a while. After thinking about it carefully, he faintly felt that something was wrong.
This fire seems to be unable to burn people. If the blackness is really serious, shouldn't he be burned when he just touched the fire?
But he saw Li Wenzhao being burned again with his own eyes. Could it be that he was really a clone as the old Taoist said?So, where is his real body?
He quietly withdrew from the group of ghosts, only to see that the ghost messengers sent out to call the female doctor had already returned.
Behind them was a woman with black-haired hosta and white clothes. The waving lamp shadow stretched her shadow extremely long. When she passed by Jiang Huai, she suddenly paused, then turned her face to look at him.
There was a hint of astonishment in her eyes, but it soon returned to normal. Jiang Huai thought she had noticed something abnormal, so he quickly stepped back, using the ghost shadows gathered together to hide himself.
"Recover him, I want to know if this person is Li Wenzhao." The ghost lady's voice was very cold, not open to comment.
"It's all burnt like this, how can I restore it? You really think of me as a Daluo god, and let me help you find the bones, and then let me restore the charred corpses. I can't see the outside." The woman leaned over and observed the charred corpses on the ground. The corpse, the burning smell rushed over.
The ghost lady repeated in a cold voice: "Recover him, otherwise don't even think about going out."
"You will threaten me with this kind of thing, I can't recover," the woman said reluctantly, "Recovery is not impossible, but it needs to use essence, you can give me some essence , if there are enough spirits, the corpse can be recovered."
"What kind of spirit do you want?" the ghost lady asked.
"That's it," the woman pointed at where Jiang Huai was standing with her fingertips, and said, "He's pretty good."
The author has something to say:
Jiang Huai: Damn this task can add 1000 points, I will take Li Wenzhao away even if I risk my life today! !
Li Wenzhao's inner os: Apprentice, he actually cares about me so much (a little touch ing~)
