Ming Yi looked at his wound and was surprised, he didn't expect his daughter-in-law's talisman to have such great power.

He listened to Li Gui whimpering in pain, turned his head to look at Cao Xuanhe, and asked what he meant: "Daughter-in-law?"

The man didn't speak, and kicked the dirt on the ground with his feet, covering Li Gui's two wounds. He heard Li Gui's groans gradually diminishing, and finally only heavy breathing remained.

Ming Yi didn't give him too much rest time, and threw out a word in a cold voice: "Say."

The ghost's eyeballs were bulging, and it seemed that he was paying attention to something.

"I, I'm a kid from a nearby mass grave. I was attracted by the strong hostility here. When I saw a living person here, I wanted to occupy his body."

Speaking of this, he quickly explained: "But I haven't succeeded yet, so it's not a bad thing!"

"The little devil in the mass grave." Ming Yi sneered: "You really don't cry when you see the coffin."

The little ghost turned his head and said to the man: "Daughter-in-law, for the talisman just now, here are two more for him to use."

When Li Gui heard this, he shook his head again and again, and said with horror on his face: "No, no, the hero, spare your life!"

Ming hit him on the head with a slap, and said angrily: "Forgive the hammer, you still refuse to tell the truth after this, believe it or not, I beat you to death!"

Li Gui flinched, with a bit of confusion on his face, until the man who had been silent all this time took out the yellow and white paper again, which made him lose the will to resist in an instant, and told the whole truth like a bean.

"I, I am a little devil who escaped from the underworld."

Ming Yi asked again: "Name."

"Wang, Wang Dayong."

Ming Yi: "When did you escape?"

"Hungry Ghost Festival."

Ming Yi: "Besides you, who else?"

Wang Dayong: "I don't know any other ghosts."

Ming Yi: "Tell me a few people you know, such as Zhang Yixiong and Zhang Weiyu."

Wang Dayong's eyes flickered, and he concealed his emotion and said falteringly: "I, I don't know."

Ming Yi was threatening: "I really don't know you, or you don't know me?"

Wang Dayong hesitated for half a second, then continued to shake his head: "I really don't know you."

Ming Yi looked at the man again: "Daughter-in-law, he lied again, just let him hurt to death."

Wang Dayong: "..."

Cao Xuanhe did not hesitate to take out the two yellow talismans that he had just put back into his pocket.

Wang Dayong saw it, so he had to admit: "I know, I know!"

After some coercion and lure by Ming Yi, this ghost named Wang Dayong had no choice but to tell the truth, admitting that he was a ghost tortured in the underworld. was killed by them.

Seeing their ugly faces, Wang Dayong quickly explained that he and the other little ghosts were also victims, and only after they were brought here did they realize that the place had been set up by warlocks and they couldn't go out at all.

And after a long time, they found that the formation was gradually removing the yin energy from their bodies. If they wanted to live for a long time, they had to kill each other and eat other little ghosts or living people in the formation to maintain the yin energy on their bodies.

As for why he said he didn't know Zhang's grandpa and grandson, it was because he knew that the ghost generals of the underworld were hunting the little ghosts of Zhang's family, so he didn't dare to have anything to do with them.

Ming Yi watched Cao Xuanhe put Wang Dayong into the yin-gathering vase, and asked him, "Daughter-in-law, why don't I call grandpa and ask him to notify the underworld."

From Wang Dayong's words, we learned that all those ghosts who escaped were trapped in this ghost gathering formation, so that would save them from going around to catch them.

Cao Xuanhe shook his head and said, "Don't be in a hurry, there is a formation here."

Ming Yi thought about it, and felt that what the daughter-in-law said made sense. There was a gathering of ghosts here. Grandpa came with ghost soldiers and ghosts, and it was just to add yin to the formation. They caught ghosts, but they couldn't take them back to the underworld. , I will also be trapped in the formation.

Cao Xuanhe looked around and said, "Let's go, first look around."

When Yin Youran heard this, Zhang Dongchen, who turned his head to the distance, waved and motioned for him to bring him over.

Han Zihao's legs became weak from fright, and he was almost dragged over by Zhang Dongchen's support.

Seeing him like this, Yin Youran couldn't help laughing, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Brother, can you be a man."

Han Zihao showed an expression uglier than crying, and tried to stand up straight tremblingly.

Yin Youran asked again: "Are you still familiar with your village?"

Han Zihao nodded first, then shook his head vigorously.

Ming Yi on the side poked his head out dissatisfied, and asked him, "Are you familiar or not?"

Seeing Ming Yi's pale face, Han Zihao's legs softened again when he stood up straight.

"..."

Ming Yi was speechless and aggrieved, and hid beside Cao Xuanhe with his mouth curled up.

Yin Youran quickly grabbed his arm, pulled him up forcibly, and said dissatisfied: "Can you do it? It's useless if you do this again, we will just leave you and go."

When Han Zihao heard the words, his face turned pale with fright, he held Yin Youran's arm tightly, and begged, "Brother, please don't leave me behind, or I will die here."

Yin Youran: "Then stand up for me."

Han Zihao braced himself to stand still.

Seeing him like this, Yin Youran said, "This is your hometown. Even if you are not at home all year round, you will not be unfamiliar with where to go. You go ahead and show us the way."

Han Zihao swallowed, and asked, "Where are you going?"

Yin Youran: "Take us around the whole village."

Han Zihao glanced at the gray surroundings and mustered up his courage for a long time, but he didn't dare to take a step. Yin Youran was speechless.

But thinking that he is an ordinary person, it is normal to be afraid, so he sent Zhang Dongchen to help him walk in front.

Zhu County is not big, and in less than half an hour, they circled the village for half a circle, and they didn't even see a single ghost, let alone a living person.

Ming Yi couldn't help but move closer to Cao Xuanhe, and asked in a low voice, "Daughter-in-law, why do I feel that this formation for recruiting ghosts is different from the previous one."

In the previous ghost gathering formation, you can see little ghosts everywhere as soon as you go up the mountain, although most of the little ghosts have lost their consciousness and only have a soul shell left.

But there are no little ghosts to be seen in this gathering of ghosts.

"The formation is the same." Knowing his doubts, Cao Xuanhe explained, "The ghosts recruited are likely to be eaten by the ghosts inside."

Those fierce ghosts that Zhang Yixiong brought out from the underworld were not simple, and the ordinary little ghosts attracted by this ghost array could not be their opponents at all.

Ming Yi recalled what Wang Dayong said just now, and thought it made sense.

He asked again, "But what about those corpses?"

Ghosts can eat ghosts, but they cannot eat corpses of living people. There are at least a thousand people in this village, and it is impossible to leave even a corpse after being killed.

Coincidentally, they ran into each other not long after Ming Yi asked this question.

Han Zihao led them around the village first, but he didn't see any little ghosts, so he walked towards the village.

The houses in the village are of different heights, and the gates are either open or half-closed. The only thing in common is that there is no one in the house.

When walking halfway, Ming Yi suddenly smelled a strange smell.

He sniffed his nose hard, wondering, "What is this smell? It smells so bad."

Cao Xuanhe replied: "Rotten corpse."

Ming Yi's sniffing movement froze, and from the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Yin Youran striding towards the source of the smell.
