Gu Xu seemed to sense something and raised his hand to block it. The ghostly hand touched Gu Xu and immediately let out a wail, then melted away.
Even with only one hand missing, the ghosts still relentlessly attacked.
Moreover, with so many of them, they can be continuously replenished.
This can't go on forever. Ghosts aren't afraid of getting tired from this kind of relentless battle, but humans do get tired and exhausted!
Moreover, Gu Xu had already bled too much, so we can't expect him to bleed again, can we?
He Wangyao threw away talismans along the way and soon found her backpack empty.
He almost cried, thinking to himself, "Is my flesh so delicious that these monsters are willing to risk injuring themselves as much as the enemy to get a bite?"
A cave appeared in the distance, and He Wangyao recognized it as the cave they had gone to with the production crew!
He quickly slammed on the brakes; the cave was also a haunted place, making it even more dangerous!
"Stop running." Gu Xu also stopped and turned to face the group of ghosts.
He felt his vision blurring; the aftereffects of the bloodletting were finally kicking in.
However, the moment my fingers touched the hilt of the peach wood sword, my mind was perfectly clear.
Mingzhuo left three sword energies on this peach wood sword for him to save his life, but now is clearly not the time to make a move.
There was something he wanted to verify.
Thinking of this, Gu Xu picked up the dagger, cut his hand, and blood gushed out. He didn't hesitate to throw the blood forward.
Strange fluctuations came from the air. He listened carefully and vaguely heard wailing sounds.
"Ah Xu!" He Wangyao exclaimed in surprise, "No, you can't bleed anymore!"
Gu Xu looked up and stared straight ahead, "If you're so capable, then come at me."
He Wangyao was stunned by the fear on the faces of the ghosts.
"Mr. Gu! He Wangyao!" Cheng Jingru's surprised voice rang out from the side. Seeing the situation in front of her, she quickly reacted and hurriedly summoned her magic sword and rushed towards the ghosts.
"Don't worry, I will protect you!"
She didn't come alone; Han Fenghua followed closely behind, brandishing her magic sword and attacking.
He Wangyao's heart, which had been tense for a moment, immediately relaxed.
If you didn't come alone, then you should be fine.
The two fought for a while, and soon Han Fenghua's arm was scratched. The wound was churning with yin energy, and she was in so much pain that cold sweat beaded on her forehead.
Cheng Jingru led him back, "Senior Brother Han, are you alright?"
Han Fenghua shook her head, took out a pill and swallowed it. She felt the yin energy erosion was getting better, and then picked up her sword again.
"Although my Taoist skills are weak, Mr. Gu saved me before, so I must get him out safely no matter what."
Cheng Jingru shared the same thought. The ghosts in the car were far more ferocious than the ones before them, and they even bewitched ordinary people to fight them. Gu Xu managed to hold them off with all his might.
Now is the time for them to repay her, otherwise she will always feel guilty.
"Senior Brother Han, you should quickly take Mr. Gu to meet up with Senior Brother Shen and the others. I'll cover the rear."
Without waiting for Han Fenghua's refusal, she rushed back with her magic sword.
Han Fenghua gave a helpless bitter smile. He knew he was no match for Cheng Jingru. "Mr. Gu, let's hurry up. There are still dangers in this valley. We need to rejoin the main force as soon as possible."
Gu Xu frowned: "Let me treat your wound."
As she raised her hand to brush over the wound, the surging yin energy indeed dissipated, and Han Fenghua watched this scene with delight.
"Mr. Gu, your physique is truly one in a hundred years!" he exclaimed in admiration, but now was not the time for idle chatter.
Han Fenghua stepped forward to lead the way, "This way, we just checked, there shouldn't be any ambushes."
The three moved forward quickly, with Han Fenghua in the lead. Suddenly, she saw a figure emerge from the bushes ahead. "Who's there?"
He Wangyao looked closely and realized it was Zhang Xian! There was a strange smile on his lips, something was definitely wrong!
Mingzhuo once said that if someone comes to him alone, he should give them a personal immobilization charm!
Without hesitation, he threw out the immobilization talisman, made a hand seal, and chanted an incantation, "Freeze!"
Then he grabbed Gu Xu and ran, shouting, "Run!"
The change was too sudden. Han Fenghua was stunned for a moment, then started running after them, confused. "What happened?"
He Wangyao breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Zhang Xian hadn't caught up, but subconsciously she felt uneasy, as if something had gone wrong.
There was a small grove of trees ahead, and He Wangyao hesitated for a moment whether to go in...
Gu Xu suddenly grabbed him, "A Yao, stop."
He clenched his fist, pressed it to his lips, and coughed a few times.
Gu Xu stood under the gloomy sky, her skin so white it almost glowed. Although she was covered in blood, she possessed a kind of holy yet fragile beauty.
This kind of beauty transcends gender, He Wangyao thought inappropriately, no wonder Mingzhuo described him as a golden branch and jade leaf.
Ah Xu is a pampered young master from a wealthy family.
Han Fenghua caught up, panting, and looked at Gu Xu with a look of amazement in her eyes. She then asked with concern, "Mr. Gu, what's wrong?"
After a pause, he said anxiously, "Let's hurry up and go. If we go through this grove of trees, we should be able to run into Senior Brother Shen and the others."
Gu Xu pressed He Wangyao down, "You go first, I'm not feeling well, I want to sit over there for a while."
Han Fenghua stepped forward to help him up: "Can't you bear with it for a little while?"
Gu Xu avoided his hand: "No."
Han Fenghua paused, seemingly somewhat embarrassed.
He was as lively and cheerful as He Wangyao in the car before, but after revealing his identity, he seemed a bit honest and dull.
