Chapter 48 Haunted House, Prison Formation(1/2)
After leaving the bun shop, the three of them sat in the carriage and drove slowly towards the other end of Panlong Town.
Maybe they just heard the sound of Yin soldiers passing by, or maybe they felt sorry for the hunchbacked old man's pretty daughter, so the three of them were silent along the way.
After a long time, Taoist Fang looked at Xu Chong and said: "The yellow amulet you just gave them is actually not very effective. If it is an ordinary ghost, it can keep his daughter safe, but I am here to welcome him tonight."
It’s King Guangshan, she will definitely die.”
"Unless the Nine Tribulations Heavenly Master of the Demon Suppression Department comes in person, no one can protect the woman that the Ghost King has chosen!"
Hearing this, Xu and He did not say a word.
Because they knew that Taoist Fang was telling the truth.
King Guangshan is the ghost king of the party. With his strength, he is one of the top beings in the world. The only ones who can deal with the ghost king are the top immortals in the world.
Immortals have five realms: channeling spirits, gathering energy, forming elixirs, controlling objects, and breaking through the void...
Strictly speaking, there are only four realms, because when you reach the void, you will leave the human world.
Therefore, above the realm of controlling objects, one has to go through nine heavenly tribulations. Only after surviving nine heavenly tribulations can one be able to soar through the air and ascend to the sky in daylight.
Jiujie is the strongest immortal in the world.
Taoist Fang touched the three beards that had been growing for many years but had not yet grown, and continued: "According to rumors, King Guangshan will enter the human world every once in a while, just to personally select Yuanyinbi girls.
"
During the day, he enjoyed the incense offered by all the people in the underworld, and repaired his golden body to protect his body. At night, he used the wall girl Yuanyin as a cauldron in the underworld to practice double cultivation. He followed the two paths of good and evil, in order to be able to
It will reach the sky soon..."
Before he finished speaking, He Xiaohua couldn't help but said: "According to this, in the more than a hundred years since King Guangshan died, didn't he bring disaster to countless young girls from good families?"
Taoist Fang nodded, "There must be."
At this time, Xu Chong, who had been silent for a long time, couldn't help but sneered: "If I'm not wrong, the children chosen by King Guangshan are all children from poor families, right? There are probably none of the female dependents of the noble families. He
I don’t even dare!”
Fang Taoist priest said: "The ghost king is just like people, he bullies the weak and fears the strong, and specially picks some low-level people with no background to attack. The imperial court paid no attention to this matter because of his achievements during his lifetime."
He Xiaohua said with a look of disdain: "That's because the common people are of low life and have no ability to retaliate. What if you try it with a royal princess? I'm sure that the Tang Dynasty will destroy him at all costs!"
As if he felt that the topic was getting more and more off-topic, Taoist Fang waved his hand and said: "Let's not talk about this anymore. If a passing kid hears it, we won't get anything good. After all, this is the territory of King Guangshan."
Unknowingly, the carriage drove out from the other end of Panlong Town and finally stopped next to a secluded orchard.
"arrive!"
Taoist Fang jumped out of the carriage first, followed closely by Xu Chong, He Xiaohua, and the tiger servant.
"This is the haunted house!"
Following the direction pointed by Taoist Fang, several people looked up and saw a huge ancient house in front of them.
The ancient house is isolated away from the market town, surrounded by abandoned land and unmaintained orchards.
Strong high walls are built on all sides, with numerous pavilions and pavilions inside, covering a large area. Although it looks a bit old now, it is not difficult to imagine how luxurious it was back then.
At this moment, in the distant horizon, the rising sun has begun to rise.
Taoist Fang led them to the gate of the ancient house and found that the two heavy doors were not closed.
Looking inside, there is everything you need in the ancient house, courtyards, gardens, rockeries, etc., but for some reason, it gives people the feeling of darkness.
It was clearly dawn now, but after everyone entered the house, they felt like they had entered night instantly.
Xu Chong stood in the front yard, looking at the messy ground with fallen leaves and the pavilion covered with cobwebs and dust. He felt that everything was gloomy and the temperature inside was much lower than outside.
Taoist Fang took out a dark yellow compass from his waist, held it in the palm of his right hand, muttered something, and then quickly made a few seals with his left hand.
A ray of silver spiritual energy shot out from his fingertips and landed on the compass.
In an instant, the originally dim compass shone with silver light and rose from his palm. Then the pointer in the center of the compass continued to rotate and slowly floated towards the depths of the house.
Seeing this scene, Xu Chong was moved in his heart and asked secretly: "Is this the magical weapon of Taoist Fang?"
While thinking about it, he saw that Taoist Fang followed the floating compass and walked inside.
Xu Chong quickly followed him with his tiger servant.
The courtyard is deep, and the more people walk inside, the colder they feel.
Especially when they came to the door of the main house in the backyard, suddenly, the compass floating in the air seemed to be hindered by invisible obstacles and could not move forward even half an inch.
At the same time, in the dark and deep main room, there was constant Yin Qi billowing.
There was only a crisp "click" sound, and the silver light of the compass suspended at the door dissipated, and the whole body was covered with a layer of frost.
Seeing that the compass was about to fall to the ground, Taoist Fang hurriedly reached out to grab it and put it back into his robe.
At this time, Taoist Fang suddenly took a few steps back and said solemnly: "These three evil spirits have improved a lot. Let's go and wait until noon!"
………………
At noon, the scorching sun is high.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Yin Qi dissipates immediately and all evil spirits are avoided. This is the time when Yang Qi is at its strongest in the day.
Several people were ready to enter the haunted house again.
This time when they stepped into the door of the haunted house, everyone could clearly feel that it was very different from the morning.
There is plenty of light inside, everything is as usual, and it looks like an old house.
Still the same as in the morning, after Taoist Fang stepped into the front yard of the haunted house, he immediately took out the compass, a magic weapon.
The compass glowed with silver light, suspended in mid-air, leading everyone forward.
Xu Chong and Hu Pu walked at the back. Looking around, they found that every pavilion and pavilion in the ancient house was bright, and there was no darkness at all.
But he knew very well that as soon as noon passed, the evil spirits hiding in the dark would once again plunge the entire ancient house into a gloomy and cold atmosphere.
Along the way, they passed through corridors and alleys, and finally came to the gate of the main house in the backyard.
It was here in the morning that the compass was blocked by evil spirits and could not enter.
But this time, the compass suspended in mid-air shook slightly, and then flew directly into the house.
"walk into!"
Taoist Fang waved his sleeves, and the three of them followed closely.
The main house in the backyard of the haunted house has a large construction area.
There are four light patios inside, and there are at least dozens of other large and small halls.
Soon, the compass led the three of them to the door of a bedroom with closed doors and windows.
"This is where the old man is hiding."
Taoist Fang placed a black copper coin with seven-star runes printed on it at the door of his bedroom.
Strangely enough, as soon as the copper coin hit the ground, it stood upright, then spun rapidly, making buzzing sounds from time to time.
It's amazing.
Taoist Fang looked back at Xu Chong and said: "This seven-star copper coin is the natal magical weapon I refined. If the copper coin stops spinning, you must be more vigilant to prove that the evil spirit has appeared."
"There are still two evil spirits, let's look for them elsewhere."
After saying that, everyone followed the compass and walked towards other places.
Soon, the three evil hiding places were all searched out by the compass.
Taoist Fang even placed a seven-star copper coin at the door of these three rooms.
During the whole process, Xu Chong and He Xiaohua couldn't help at all, they just had to watch it honestly.
"There is still half an hour, noon is about to pass, we must seize the time to set up the formation!"
Having said this, Taoist Fang quickly put down the backpack behind him, took out a stick of dark red graphite, and then took out a small white bottle.
Then he said to He Xiaohua: "Grind the ink for me and work faster. There is only half an hour left. I'm afraid it won't be enough."
He Xiaohua nodded, "Don't worry."
Soon, He Xiaohua was seen picking up the dark red graphite, pouring a lot of dark green liquid from the small white bottle, and quickly grinding it in the inkstone.
Amidst the grinding sound, the dark red graphite and the green liquid inside were ground into a thick yellow paste.
From a distance, it smells bad.
At this time, Taoist Fang poured the yellow paste into an iron fist and said, "You keep grinding, Master Xu Xian and I will cast spells and set up the formation!"
"Master Xu Xian, please follow me into the house!"
"good!"
Xu Chong nodded and followed Taoist Fang into a haunted house where evil spirits were hidden.
Because the doors and windows were closed, it was dark inside the haunted house.
Standing in the house, Xu Chong looked around and found that the haunted house was empty, with nothing in it. The area was not very large, maybe thirty square meters at most.
