Judge, please respect yourself

After laughing and laughing, Bei Yunrong moved a wooden stool for Huaigu to sit down, and straightened his clothes. Seeing this, Luan Mu suddenly remembered the business that had just been interrupted, So he restrained his playful face, his expression became serious in an instant, he borrowed the kettle in Nianqing's room and poured a cup of tea, walked in front of Huaigu and handed the cup to him after bowing.

"True Lord Huaigu, I hope you can tell me about the spirit master."

"What do you want to know?"

"What method does he use to control the soul?"

However, facing this question, Huai Gu just sighed and shook his head after a long silence.

"Actually, I, Yuxi, still don't know how to control the souls of the dead with the art of controlling spirits."

"I don't know? Then how did the real king know the spirit master?"

"It was a long time ago, but I still remember that at that time, Shu Guang and I were just disciples who had just formed a golden core under Yue Qingchen's sect. , and just in the year when he left the mountain, for unknown reasons, the evil spirits all over the place suddenly became rampant and rampant, frequently and brutally attacking the people, causing everyone to panic, no matter where they went, they were as desolate and empty as a dead city After that, the situation became more and more serious, and more and more people were killed and injured. All the sects in the rivers and lakes knew that they could not let the wraiths go on like this, so they all sent people to help and rescue them. Suddenly a large number of undead erupted, and all the cultivators rushed to them, but the resentful spirits were weird and could not be subdued with soul binding, so we had to disperse them. Those resentful spirits fought with the cultivators as if consciously, and the whole Lanling was plunged into chaos. In the melee, and in this chaos, there is only one person who is calm and composed. He is wearing a cloak, and he can't see his face clearly. The wraiths behind are rushing forward to support."

"The weirdness that True Monarch Huaigu said is similar to what we encountered in Quni, but we didn't see anyone giving orders when we were in Quni..."

Luan Mu stroked his chin and thought for a while, then said again, "Then what happened to you guys?"

"The battle of Lanling was a catastrophe... Those resentful spirits were not like ordinary evil spirits, their evil power was stronger, and the cultivators with shallow cultivation were not their opponents at all, so everyone fell into a bitter battle in Lanling. One person, but he controls the spirit of resentment as a weapon, and the spirit of resentment comes continuously. After fighting for nearly a night, Shu Guang and I have a shallow cultivation base, and we have already exhausted our physical strength. No one can get close to the spirit master. They are not blamed The spirit bite meant that the yang energy was sucked out, and there were countless casualties, but even so, we still won that battle."

"How did you win? How did the spirit master die?"

"I killed it with my own hands."

Huai Gu talked about this, coughed twice, drank the tea to moisten his throat.

"Master is good at divination. It can be said that he is the best in the world. Shu Guang's divination is learned from Master. When he went down the mountain, Master calculated the disaster, but he didn't tell us two. See you later. When he arrived at the tragic elephant in Lanling, he knew that the ominous omen on the hexagram referred to this, so he went straight to attack the spirit master, who used the resentful spirit to block him, but the master ignored these evil spirits and bit him, and resisted The sword blocked the other party's way, and then shouted at me, even though I was tired all over, I dragged myself up and stabbed with the sword, but unexpectedly, the man grabbed Master's sword with his bare hands and threw it away forcefully, After seeing the flaw, the spirit driver turned around and wanted to escape, but because of the hard work all night, most of the dead souls controlled by him had been eradicated by the cultivator. Later, the disciples who came to support Yuhui blocked the person's way, so we So he took the opportunity and stabbed the long sword in his gate of life, and then all the evil spirits of Lanling were greatly reduced and were all subdued and wiped out by the cultivators. Then, as the years passed, we never saw the spirit driver again. The forehead of those who are not good at cultivation has already fallen into the loess, I still remember this matter, but it is just the elders of our several sects, that day when you called Yin Shuai in Wanlan, Shu Guang mistook you for him. Spirit Master, for this I apologize to you on his behalf."

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, Zhenjun Shu Guang is also kind-hearted, and he is afraid that the spirit driver will harm the people again. It's just Zhenjun Huaigu, I have one more question."

"What's the matter?"

"Before the battle of Lanling, where did people die frequently?"

"I remember it seemed like a lot of villages were massacred."

Tucun...

Luan Mu frowned when he heard that, Xi Ziyi was also practicing spirit control skills for Jinghua at that time, killing people everywhere to obtain the souls of the dead to practice this technique, the reason why Qu Ni became the choice of spirit control is probably because there are mass graves around it It is indeed a convenient choice for him to practice the art of controlling spirits without him having to kill people to expose his identity.

Speaking of which, Xi Ziyi told him that Jinghua knew the art of controlling spirits, and later found the hidden scrolls of controlling spirits in Zhuang Hua's dark room, and that Zhuang Hua was also present when Chaisang investigated the strange appearance. Coincidence?But at that time, he was still using the golden core to maintain Xi Ziyi's soul, so how could he have the energy to manipulate the dead soul?

"Does True Monarch Huaigu know the origin of the spirit master back then?"

"After I pierced his life gate, a fire suddenly broke out on his body, burning his face, and he couldn't even see his appearance clearly, let alone his identity."

"Then could it be Wan Lan's disciple?"

"Why do you think so?"

"Just a guess..."

Luan Mu was about to explain, but suddenly there was a knock on the door, and several people were vigilant and silenced for an instant, holding their breath and waiting for the outside action.

"Junior brother Nianqing?"

The voices of the two people they met in the peach grove came from outside the door. Nian Qing didn't answer, and his eyes signaled the people in the house to escape from the window. The conversation room was surrounded.

"Nian Qing."

Perhaps it was because there was no response in the room for a long time, another call was made, but it was not the voice of the person just now, Nian Qing was startled, the situation seemed to be very bad, because the person who called him was Ming Gong, the master of Huangyan.

How could it disturb Master?It seems that they have identified someone in the house, if they don't open the door, it will only attract suspicion.

So Nian Qing coughed twice, and everyone hid in the house, and then he slowly moved to the door, pushed the door half closed, and there was a man wearing a golden crown standing outside the door. With a golden ribbon, he was wearing a bright red robe, and his phoenix eyes looked down arrogantly. He had an extraordinary aura, and a group of disciples followed behind him. Nian Qing bowed to the former.

"Master Minggong."

"When did you come back, Nianqing?"

"I just came back not long ago."

"You two senior brothers told me that you came to Luan Golden Pavilion to see me, but why didn't I see you?"

"I planned to, and should, go to see the master, but I suddenly felt unwell halfway, so I went back to my room to rest, and I hope the master will forgive me."

"Then how are you doing now?"

"Take a break for a while, it's fine."

"That's good. I came here to look for you, just to ask, have you seen the two little thieves?"

"Brother already asked me, but I didn't see it."

"Really? But we also searched this Taoyuan Island, but still haven't found anyone. The rest of the disciples' rooms have been searched, and you are the only one left."

"I'm the only one in the room."

Ming Gong had no joy on his face, and exchanged glances with Nian Qing.

"You are in poor health today, so you must lower your vigilance. Maybe those two thieves sneaked into your room to hide, but you didn't notice it."

Although the words were tactful, Nian Qing understood Ming Gong's meaning, he had to search his wing room, no, the other party was even sure that there was someone hiding in his room, otherwise why would he block the doors and windows and come prepared?

Knowing that he couldn't escape, Nian Qing glanced at the people hiding on both sides of the door from the corner of his eye, stepped half a step behind the half-open door to make way, and made a move to Bei Yunrong and the others behind him when no one was looking. He made a gesture, and the moment Ming Gong stepped into the wing, several people immediately rushed out of the window.

"who!?"

The Huangyan disciples outside the door were quite surprised, they thought that Nian Qing was just harboring two thieves, but they didn't want the two on the arrest warrant to also rush out of his room.

Taking advantage of their distraction, Nian Qing followed them and escaped from the window, but there were disciples of Huangyan guarding the window, so they were surrounded after they escaped.

"Nianqing, did you secretly bring so many guests here without telling me? How should I entertain them now?"

Ming Gong approached from behind, and this close, he saw Yue Qingchen's familiar clothes clearly, showing a little surprise.

"Huaigu? Why are you here? I, Huang Yan, can come in through the gate, so why are you sneaking around?"

"I came in a hurry, but I just forgot to greet you, so there is no need to be polite, right?"

"Even if you don't need it, but there are two distinguished guests behind you, so you need a big battle to show off my Huangyan style, otherwise, if I let them run out, wouldn't it make outsiders laugh at me for not treating others well?"

After Ming Gong finished speaking, he glanced at Luan Mu and Bei Yunrong, "Or is it that you are reluctant to part with your beloved disciple being hunted down?"

Huai Gu didn't answer any more, Ming Gong didn't want to deal with him any more, he nodded to the disciples around him, and all the disciples drew their swords to attack.

"Zongzhi has always been on good terms with me, his hatred is my hatred, Huaigu, get out of the way, I only want the thief's life."

Ming Gong pointed at Luan Mu and spoke, exuding a terrifying aura all over his body. Luan Mu could only feel the cold air hit his bone marrow, and couldn't help shivering. Bei Yun promised to see that he was a little afraid of the other party, so he moved to protect him behind.

"I'll stop Ming Gong in a while, and you take advantage of the chaos to escape to the northern gate and take the ferry to Wuling City."

Nian Qing whispered behind them, but before the two of them agreed, Nian Qing stood up and confronted Ming Gong.

"Nianqing, you really are my good apprentice, you actually brought this person to me yourself."

"Of course, Master thinks about the great enmity of Zhenjun day and night, so I should share it with Master."

"I just hope that your sharing will not become a burden."

Nian Qing suddenly raised her head and smiled, "Master really understands this disciple's mind."
