After amnesia, I fell in love with my old enemy
Chapter 65 Looking for Lonely Souls, Looking for Wild Ghosts
Since Che Shanxue and Chen Wei left that day, no living creature has ever landed on this extinct volcano island.
Even seabirds would not choose to settle on this small island. Clever little animals have their own way of distinguishing dangers. What's more, unlike humans, many birds are born with psychic abilities and can see the dangers on this island. It's gloomy.
The massive lightning strike a few days ago did not seem to leave any traces other than the crater of the extinct volcano. For example, the clear yang energy that swept away the entire island has now disappeared.After a few days, Che Shanxue landed on the island again, and as soon as his feet hit the ground, he trembled because of the cold that shot up from the soles of his feet.
The protective talisman in Che Shanxue's bosom operated consciously, separating the surrounding ghost energy. Gong Rou hurriedly took a few steps in his direction, wishing she could stick her whole body on her master's body.
She has already made up her mind that she will follow Master closely later, and be a solid turtle with a shrinking head.But she didn't want Che Shanxue to stand still after falling to the ground. Gong Rou, who sensed something was wrong, raised her head and found that he was staring at herself coldly.
Master's gaze was something more terrifying than ghost spirit, Gong Rou stepped back three steps in an instant, sweating coldly and asked, "Master, what do you want Master to do?"
"Go and communicate with the souls bound here." Che Shanxue said.
Although she was extremely afraid of ghosts, now Gongrou had no choice but to fight. She clenched her fists and wanted to rush into the hinterland of the island. After running for a certain distance, she didn't hear footsteps behind her. She hurriedly turned her head and found that her master was still standing there.
"..."
Gong Rou instantly retreated faster than rushing out.
Che Shanxue asked her with eyes, but Gong Rou asked back out of breath: "Master, won't you go with me?"
"Not together," Che Shanxue said, "Don't think about pretending to be a tiger, you didn't talk to the soul within a stick of incense..."
"Just go back and rub the hemp rope?" Gong Rou asked expectantly.
"I'll throw you to the outskirts of the Demon Realm, and take a good look at what changes will happen to your soul after being exposed to the wind, and write ten propositional articles." Che Shanxue said.
Gong Rou turned pale with fright, this time she didn't hesitate anymore, she drew out her dharma sword and added a few self-defense Zhushujutsu to herself.
Among them, the most proficient method is disappearing and disappearing. Che Shanxue doesn't want to know how many people she has eavesdropped on the wall with this trick.
But that smooth speed still made him nod, no matter what, Gong Rou's talent was not weaker than that of her seniors to be accepted as a disciple by Che Shanxue, even if luck was excluded.
Under Che Shanxue's gaze, Gong Rou walked into the mountain cautiously.
She used her spiritual sense while walking, trying to find a few wandering souls, but unfortunately, she encountered a lot of Yin Qi gathering along the way, and there must be a place where the corpses had been buried for no more than a month. No matter how she called, she couldn't summon a ghost.
no?Gong Rou was dumbfounded.
Although she hates contacting ghosts and does not want to practice psychic spells, but even Hong Jing, who is protected by an enchantment, can use psychic spells three times to succeed once?
Too bad, if the master thinks that she has neglected her studies for too long and regressed, she will really have her legs broken.
And the last big question, how long is the stick of incense left?
Thinking about this with a pale face, Gong Rou stood in front of a pothole and gravel, and used the technique of summoning ghosts again.
The Yin wind swept around her, no trace of a single ghost was found no matter in the sky or the ground.Gong Rou's mind, which was dizzy from being frightened by her master, also calmed down a little, her keen intuition came into play, and she found something wrong.
The yin energy here is extremely heavy, so thick that ordinary people without spiritual sense can see a light black mist, which can only appear in battlefields or corpse pits where many people died at once.If there is a thunderstorm in this kind of place, the ghosts who cannot leave can even appear directly.
Because of the heavy yin, there are usually ghosts wandering in such places, and the more they gather, the more ghosts bring more yin, forming a vicious circle. Somewhere, ghost generals and ghost kings will one day be born.
In other words, it is impossible for a place with such a heavy cloud to be free of ghosts.
If there are no ghosts, there must be something strange.
You must tell Master, this is Gong Rou's first thought.
And her next thought was, did Master really not know about this?
Even if it is for experience, the character of the great master will not send the disciples who have not graduated from the teacher to a place that he can't control, but if the great master knows that there is something strange here, he will send his disciples here...
Gong Rou burst into tears, and she finally realized that she had become a decoy.
But on the surface, she still has to keep her face, so that the person who is baited by the master in the dark will notice something strange and not act according to the master's plan.
So what is Master's plan?
While thinking about this, Gong Rou clenched the dharma knife tightly, with a few talismans between her fingers, her spiritual power ready to be released.
Then she gritted her teeth, and instead of choosing to take a detour, she walked through the gloomy gravel field.
Halfway through the road...
Two-thirds of the way through...
Only a quarter left...
She counted silently in her heart, her eyes wandering around, for fear of missing any signs.
Just when she looked up to observe a shrub growing obliquely from among the gravel, and squinted her eyes to make sure that there were bones hidden behind it, Gong Rou suddenly felt something soft under her feet.
Gong Rou froze all over, she didn't dare to look down, and slowly tried to lift her heels.
A cold claw wrapped around her ankle.
Gong Rou: "..."
Gong Rou: "Master, help me!!!!"
***
Che Shanxue was only a moment late, but the entire gravel field had already been blown into a sea of flames by Gong Rou's bodyguard, Zhu Yu.
When he stopped, his only female apprentice was still throwing talismans. Judging from Che Shanxue's professional eyes, just this moment, Gong Rou spent no less than a hundred gold.
Not everyone can be so extravagant with the talismans painted by Che Shanxue.
When Gongrou calmed down a bit, Che Shanxue lifted the remaining stump of the walking corpse that tried to catch her, looked it over, sighed and shook her head.
"sparrow."
It was clearly the corpse of a Sparrow Assassin.
Sighing slightly, Che Shanxue ignited a cluster of flames at her fingertips, and burned the stump, billowing black smoke came out continuously, but it did not drift away with the wind, but stayed in place, converging into the upper body of a thin man.
This forcibly summoned ghost wanted to run away when he saw Che Shanxue, but Che Shanxue directly pulled out a fixed ghost talisman from Gong Rou's arms, and slapped it on his chest.
The ghost was frozen, and the black smoke-like body could not move.
Only then did Che Shanxue scrutinize the dead sparrow assassin carefully, and asked an endless question with great interest: "Did you hate Yu Xingxing when you died here?"
Putting aside whether the Sparrow Assassin hated Yu Xingxing or not, judging from his eyes, at least he hated Che Shanxue very much.However, every time Che Shanxue appeared in the hall, she was used to being stared at with this kind of gaze, and she didn't care at all.
"Before I thought, for such an important place, Yu Xingxing should arrange a few defenders," he said slowly, "but the last time I came here, I didn't feel the slightest breath of life, and I didn't have enough time to pay attention. Investigate...well, I don't think you were made into a walking corpse voluntarily, did you?"
Seeing the sparrow assassin's gritted teeth, Che Shanxue nodded.
"My cousin has gone too far in crooked ways, and made a lot of gadgets. I have never seen such a walking corpse who has a sense but must obey orders." Che Shanxue rubbed his chin and looked at it. His spiritual sense is countless times stronger than Gongrou's, and he can even see the runes flashing on the ghost's soul. If you don’t want to, you have to take action, and the sparrow’s concealment technique cooperates. In this way, you can hide in front of strong enemies and prevent them from being found, and you can use bloodthirsty deterrence in front of weak ones. It is very convenient and cheap..."
It's a pity that before Che Shanxue left, she already knew about the "supervisor who eludes ghosts" from the ghost of the laborer. In addition, there were not many people trusted by Yu Xing Guild, so after a little guessing, she thought of the key point. This time, she brought Gong Rou with her. .
"Answer honestly, or I will do a soul search, you can choose one of the two," Che Shanxue, who verified his guess, no longer pays attention to this technical issue of refining walking corpses, said, "I have always been secretly concerned about the black market of human teeth. All the inflows and outflows are recorded in the book, and the number of hard laborers who died here is huge, if it passes through the hands of human teeth, it is absolutely impossible to hide the loopholes."
After a pause, he asked, "Where do they come from, and where is their family origin?"
"You want to requiem?" The dead Sparrow Assassin hissed with a low laugh, "Then you made a mistake, the people here are not hard workers, they are—"
The Sparrow Assassin paused maliciously before uttering two words.
"—human sacrifice!"

Hongjing, Ouchi.
The East Palace was desolately populated and had not seen palace people coming and going for many days. The ten-year-old Dayan Crown Prince Che Yuanwen opened the window and looked left and right, but did not see anyone walking around.
This showed that the moment he recorded was correct. Che Yuanwen quickly closed the window, picked up the bag he had prepared, bent down, and turned out from another window.
The sound of Che Yuanwen landing was no louder than that of a cat. He stuck to the base of the wall, dodging teams of Imperial Guards patrolling along the route, or in other words, dodging teams of former Imperial Guards who had thrown themselves at the thieves. I got a partial courtyard.
There is a pool in the side courtyard, which has dried up, and the silt is agglomerated. The fake rock mountain in the center is showing teeth and claws, and there is a secret road on the right.
Recalling the secret that Uncle Sanhuang once told him in his heart, the short-armed and short-legged Prince Dayan jumped into a pool deeper than him, and found an entrance that only children could get in on the right side of the fake rock mountain.
He looked back again, but he didn't see anyone following behind him, so he went in happily.
The next moment he felt extremely slippery under his buttocks, and before he could react, he had already slid down the narrow ramp and ran a long distance in an instant.
In the darkness, only whirring wind could be heard, Che Yuanwen held his breath for a moment, only feeling that his speed was getting faster and faster.
If you fall like this, you will definitely fall to your death the moment you hit the flat ground!
He hurriedly wanted to use his little sword to get stuck, but he didn't want to make a click. The too long little sword pierced through the wall of the slideway, and he fell directly from the hole, along another slippery secret passage, towards Falling below.
Gulu Gulu Gulu——
Snapped!
After a soft landing, the ten-year-old prince rolled and was covered in ashes.
Wanting to cough but not daring to make a sound, Che Yuanwen choked with tears in his eyes.
But he didn't dare to make a sound, because in the darkness and silence he felt that there were eyes watching.
Che Yuanwen, who was shivering, fumbled to take out the night pearl from the bag. At this time, a little light lit up beside him, dispelling a little darkness.
Afraid of encountering some kind of trap, Che Yuanwen hurriedly backed away with his bag in his arms, but when he looked up, he found that the faint light came from a human form...a ghost.
Che Yuanwen was stunned.
He knows this ghost.
"Master Xiao Yu?"
Even seabirds would not choose to settle on this small island. Clever little animals have their own way of distinguishing dangers. What's more, unlike humans, many birds are born with psychic abilities and can see the dangers on this island. It's gloomy.
