Chapter 76 Evil Ghost Army
Evil Ghost Army?
Hearing this name, Zuo Chen knew that it was probably an evil thing raised by Xuzhou.
"Old man, what is this evil ghost army you are talking about?"
"There is a mountain in the center of Xuzhou called Niujin Mountain. When there is a famine, a group of people gather on it. Bandits have repeatedly caused trouble in surrounding villages and towns. "The old man sighed:
"Those are some vicious people. They have not learned from all over the country. They all got together and said that a king came out of troubled times and wanted to establish his own family. But how can such a group of bastards have the ability to become a king? After a big disaster, they will He trapped himself on the mountain."
Hearing this, Zuo Chen already had a guess in his mind, so he asked:
"In the end, they did not dissipate after starving to death, but became. A group of ghost bandits?”
“Yes.” The old man sighed: “When we first became ghosts, we wanted to explore outside the city to see if there were any living people left in this world. How much? Unexpectedly, we sent out a few strong men and ran into the gangsters a few steps outside. Our good boys were beaten to death, and then the ghost army dragged them back and devoured them alive.
“They originally wanted to enter the city and burn them, but they seemed to be blocked by something. After a lot of effort, they didn’t come in and left. ”
The old man was worried: "If you go over there, you might encounter those thieves if you don't protect yourself. I know you are capable, Taoist priest, but there are so many of them. And they seem to have a backer, so they are quite capable!
“I heard it was called...Master Dahuang? I have never been there, nor have I seen it. I just thought it was a big demon, something very dangerous. "
He had a panic expression on his face. After speaking, he turned to look at Zuo Chen and found that the Taoist's face was full of calm. Rather than being frightened, he felt more like he had heard a strange story.
A trace of expectation arose in the old man’s heart:
“Master? Do you still have the ability to kill monsters? ”
"It's not a demon slayer. But it does have some means of settling down."
Zuo Chen felt that Lei Fa should be more like Dang Zhuo.
"Then you plan to go and have a look at the Evil Ghost Army?" the old man asked again.
Zuo Chen nodded.
These sneaky things surrounding Dahuang are probably the tactics the master used to do before.
Then you definitely have to deal with it yourself.
The old man carefully raised his head and looked at Zuo Chen, his heart became lively again:
Although what Zuo Chen said just now was very modest, the old man could obviously hear it. Zuo Chen was not afraid of this. Evil ghost.
"Master, if you want to kill the demon, do you need anything from Luoshan? Although we don't have any useful treasures, we can still use some strength..."
"That's not necessary. I have to distract my energy to protect you when you go there." Zuo Chen smiled.
Speaking of this, he also had some fun thoughts: "The power of my life-making skills is not small. When the time comes, stand far away, aim at the ghost nest and throw it into it, I am sure to blow it up." "
Who knew that after hearing this, the color of the old man's soul suddenly became frightened.
"Master! No! No! Don't do this!"
"Huh?"
Seeing Zuo Chen's puzzled eyes, the old man's soul It flashed several times in succession and finally stabilized after a short period of time.
Looking at his expression again, he was already full of confusion:
"Master, I...my son is inside."
"Your son? In the evil ghost army?" Zuo Chen said slightly frown.
The old man opened his mouth, but finally let out a long sigh and said:
"That boy was the county magistrate in the city. He didn't listen to King Kang's words to evacuate when he was alive, and planned to open a warehouse to stockpile grain. , but was killed by King Kang's cavalry. After his death, he went out to explore the city and encountered the evil ghost army. Instead of eating him, the evil ghost army captured him. Now he is alive or dead."
When he said this, the old man's expression was not sad, but a bit of helpless and dumbfounded:
"That boy is so unlucky. He obviously spent a lot of effort to take the exam, but he was repeatedly rejected by King Kang's relatives. After several visits, King Kang finally became the county magistrate. However, he was beaten to death just a few days after he became the county magistrate. It will be fine after he becomes a ghost, and the people in the city respect him, but who would have thought that an evil ghost would catch him as soon as he went out..." Zuo Chen also took a breath of air after hearing this.
It sounds like...it does seem to be a connection with the broom star.
"Although I also know that he was caught by those bastards, and I'm afraid the end will not be good, but I still hope that if you have the opportunity, you can go in and have a look, and don't explode directly. Otherwise, I won't say anything. I can’t keep it even if I think about it.”
The old man seemed to feel that his request was somewhat too much, so he sighed gloomily:
"If you find it troublesome, just blow up the place there."
"I will try my best then. Look for it." Zuo Chen didn't make a promise, but just reassured him.
The time was almost up, and Zuo Chen did not stay in the city any longer. He and the old man quickly walked towards the main entrance of Luoshan. Zuo Chen also told the old man a few words:
"You guys If you want to go out for a walk, you can go south. There is a master there, whose name is Shanxin. I opened a village with him, where we can grow food and live people. But they are Buddhist lands after all. You have to think about it. If you want to see me in the past, you probably have to call in advance
"Their village that can grow food will only get bigger and bigger over time, and there will be more and more people. When it develops again, I guess they will send people over to search. When the time comes, I will go back and talk to them first. Be angry, save it. Then the flood will flood the Dragon King Temple, and the two of you will fight."
The old man listened to Zuo Chen's speech, but it was difficult to construct in his mind what kind of place he could eat in Xuzhou now. He seemed to have always regarded the place managed by Master Shanxin as a fairyland. He thought that the place Zuo Chen just mentioned should be a place with infinite warm light and shrouded clouds and mist, with immortals passing through and fairies swimming through it. He nodded in a hurry:
"Okay, okay, I just hope you can help us say a few words to Master Shanxin and tell him that we have no ill intentions and are just trying to bring peace to the people."
Zuo Chen estimated that this person The old man may have misunderstood something.
When he walked to the door, all the ghosts in the city saw Zuo Chen was about to leave, and they all came over. Gradually, there are more and more ghosts behind Zuo Chen. If an outsider who cannot see the ghost is watching, he will find a thick dark cloud behind him.
Finally, they arrived at the gate of the ghost town. Many little ghosts wanted to give Zuo Chen something, but they couldn't get anything good, not even leaves.
After Zuo Chen saw it, he squatted beside these little ghosts with a smile. The little ghosts were a little scared, but they reached out and handed over the balls in their hands.
After taking it, Zuo Chen reached out and rubbed the little devil's head. Take the dumplings and turn around to leave.
The ghosts looked at his back and waved goodbye. After walking a certain distance, the figures disappeared again, leaving only a deserted city with a peach tree standing next to it.
As Zuo Chen walked forward, he took out the clay dumplings in his hand and stared at them for several seconds. He didn’t know where to put them, either throwing them away or keeping them.
After thinking about it, I finally opened my bamboo basket and threw the clay balls in.
After putting away the clay balls, Zuo Chen looked up and looked ahead.
As the old man said, there is a mountain standing on this red wasteland, and the ghost energy is even stronger on that mountain.
The only thing that puzzled Zuo Chen was that even if he used Wang Qi Technique, he could not see any other abnormality on this mountain besides ghost Qi.
There is no great wilderness, and there is no merit as mentioned by the master.
Nothing unusual at all.
Is the dumpling meat ball that the master mentioned here?
......
In Xuzhou City, a man with a sharp mouth knelt on one knee in front of Mr. Sun, holding his hands forward:
"Old Sun, this is the Flesh Tiger Talisman. ”
In his hand, a piece of blood-red meat stirred slightly.
Looking carefully at the appearance of the piece of meat, it does look like a tiger crouching in the hand.
