I rely on length to cultivate immortality

"Ah! There's a ghost!"

A scream broke the silence of the night.

It also woke up Li Xiuchang who was practicing.

Then, screams continued to ring out, and there was a lot of noise outside.

He quickly ended his practice, pushed open the door of the practice room and walked out.

The sound came from the yard, but he didn't rush into the yard. When he encountered danger, he should first ensure his own safety.

Li Xiuchang tiptoed to the window and looked out quietly.

I saw a group of women with disheveled hair, blood stains, and illusory bodies chasing several outer disciples.

It's really a ghost... Li Xiuchang became nervous.

How could there be evil ghosts in the holy land of Xianchen Sect?

The outer disciples screamed and turned back from time to time to throw a few talismans to hit the female ghosts behind them, but they were almost all dodged by those female ghosts.

Occasionally, they hit one, but the effect was minimal.

The outer disciples usually focus on practicing skills, and they also have to be distracted from cultivation. They lack combat experience and are not good at fighting.

Moreover, those female ghosts are obviously quite powerful.

However, only a few outer disciples who have awakened are being chased by female ghosts, and most people are still immersed in illusions.

For example, Wang Long is terrified at this time, and seems to be frightened, but his eyes are out of focus, and he obviously has not escaped from the illusion.

Li Xiuchang looked anxiously in the distance: "Why hasn't anyone from the Law Enforcement Hall come yet?"

He regretted it a little. If he had known, he shouldn't have put the smoked meat production line at the door of his house. In this way, he wouldn't have opened the courtyard protection formation, and the ghosts wouldn't have come in.

At this moment, two figures suddenly broke into his sight.

Li Xiuchang was relieved and completely relieved.

The one who came was an incredibly handsome man in white and a strong man with a face full of flesh.

Li Xiuchang didn't know the strong man, but when he saw the reliable Senior Brother Zhang Wanzhi, he felt full of security in his heart.

When the disciples who were being chased by the female ghosts saw Zhang Wanzhi, they seemed to have seen their savior and ran towards him.

Zhang Wanzhi stood there without moving, but the strong man took out a bell and shook it gently a few times.

With the sound of dingling and clanging, the female ghosts seemed to be petrified and all of them were motionless.

The strong man shook the bell a few more times, and all the female ghosts turned into green smoke and floated into the bell.

At this time, the disciples who were trapped in the illusion woke up one after another.

Li Xiuchang confirmed that there was no danger, and then he pushed the door and walked into the courtyard.

"Thank you, Senior Brother Zhang, thank you..." Li Xiuchang looked at the strong man.

"Motu." The strong man said sparingly.

"Thank you, Senior Brother Mo, for helping me." Li Xiuchang immediately understood the identity of the strong man, and it turned out that he was also his neighbor.

It has been a month since he entered the sect, and Li Xiuchang has already asked Wang Long about his other neighbors.

In addition to Zhang Wanzhi, the other three brothers in Donggeng District are Gui Wuyan, the "Kryptonian Gua Master", Motu, and Chen Changsheng.

Wang Long didn't know much about Motu, only that he was a soul master.

As for Chen Changsheng, this person had even less presence. When Li Xiuchang asked about him for the first time, Wang Long didn't even remember his name. He went back to the reception office to check the information before he learned such a name.

At this time, other disciples around also gathered one after another, and they were still in shock, and they all thanked Zhang Wanzhi and Motu.

At the same time, they also discussed the origins of those female ghosts.

"How could there be so many ghosts in the sect?"

"We should report to the Law Enforcement Hall as soon as possible and ask someone to find out where the ghosts came from."

"That's right, to prevent more ghosts from appearing and harming other fellow disciples."

At this time, Zhang Wanzhi coughed and said apologetically: "This matter started because of me. I went to visit Junior Brother Mo's residence and accidentally let the ghosts that Junior Brother Mo used run away. I am really sorry for disturbing all the junior brothers."

Everyone was stunned. They didn't expect it to be like this. They all turned their eyes to Mo Tu.

Mo Tu nodded slightly: "I am a soul master. These ghosts are wild ghosts I caught."

Hearing the word "soul master", several timid ones took a step back. Soul control is also one of the hundred arts of cultivating immortals, but it is extremely unpopular.

Soul master, as the name suggests, controls ghosts. This craftsman is proficient in catching ghosts, controlling ghosts, and raising ghosts.

People who practice this way are rarer than the spiritual chef that Li Xiuchang chose. It's not that the soul masters are not powerful, but dealing with evil spirits is very dangerous, and most people are afraid of it.

Zhang Wanzhi sighed, took out a handful of spirit stones, and said:

"I am sorry for what happened today. This little bit of spirit stones is just a token of my gratitude, and it is not enough to make up for the guilt in my heart."

After that, he threw the spirit stones in his hand, and those spirit stones were evenly divided into dozens of pieces, floating in front of each person, one for each person.

There was also a piece in front of Li Xiuchang. He glanced at it and found that it was exactly ten low-grade spirit stones.

"It's just a small misunderstanding. Brother Zhang, just talk it out. Why be so polite." Those first-level talisman masters refused in their mouths, but their bodies had already honestly collected the spirit stones.

Li Xiuchang also collected the spirit stones, and Wang Long did the same.

With more than a dozen people taking the lead, others also accepted the spirit stones one after another.

Taking this spirit stone means accepting Zhang Wanzhi's apology, and today's matter is over.

Zhang Wanzhi had a very good reputation outside, and these disciples already respected him very much. Now that they had received a sum of spirit stones as compensation, even if there was some resentment in their hearts, it had completely dissipated.

After all, these disciples were only first-level craftsmen and Qi-training monks, and ten spirit stones were not a small amount for them.

For example, the ten firemen only earned one spirit stone for a day's work, but now they got ten spirit stones after being scared. They were secretly happy in their hearts, and even thought: Come to me next time if there is such a good thing!

This matter was over, but Li Xiuchang looked at the mess inside and outside the courtyard and the frightened faces of everyone, and took the initiative to say:

"Let's stop here today, everyone go back and rest early, and resume work tomorrow."

The firemen and the smoke collectors also had this intention, and they said goodbye and left.

In a blink of an eye, only Li Xiuchang, Wang Long, Zhang Wanzhi, and Motu were left in the yard.

Li Xiuchang and Wang Long began to clean up the inside and outside of the yard. Zhang Wanzhi and Motu also helped, and soon restored the inside and outside of the yard to their original state, and cleaned up all the collapsed furnace instruments and smoked spirit meat.

In total, Li Xiuchang did not suffer any losses.

However, today's incident also taught Li Xiuchang some lessons. It is convenient to put the spirit meat production line at the door of his house, but there are also hidden dangers.

If there were not so many people at his door, he would not attract the ghosts to attack, and under normal circumstances, he would not open the courtyard protection formation, and those ghosts could not enter his yard.

Although it was just an accident today, who can say whether there will be other accidents next time?

After a failure, Li Xiuchang asked Wang Long: "Brother, please help me keep an eye out for other suitable places for us to smoke meat."

"Okay, I'll go back and ask." Wang Long agreed and said goodbye.

Zhang Wanzhi seemed to feel guilty about what happened tonight, and said apologetically:

"Brother, if you plan to move the workshop somewhere else, I can help provide a place. And it's a waste to use your yard to smoke spirit meat. It's better to use it and make a fortune in spirit stones."
