While these little ghosts were frightened away by Su Xiaoniu's soul, I went up without hesitation, picked up the soul, and ran quickly into the distant woods.
Just as the boatman said, my running directly attracted those living people who had lost their minds. Similarly, the little ghosts nearby also chased me at a certain distance.
The scene was extremely spectacular, and the entire corpse-digging site was in chaos!
Only the ghost master was standing on an old tree branch, watching me being "hunted" by a group of little ghosts, with a sinister smile on his face, and he was unmoved.
I ignored him, quickly circling the dense woods a few times before sprinting out. On the far shore, the boatman and Feng Ling had already taken advantage of the chaos and rushed out, readying the boat for me. I hopped aboard, clutching Su Xiaoniu's soul. Behind me, a series of ghostly howls echoed, earth-shattering. Anyone with a heart condition would have been frightened to death.
Even Feng Ling, a police officer, was trembling with fear on the boat when he saw this scene. After all, most police officers only believed in science, and few of them would believe in Taoist ghosts and gods. Now, suddenly encountering so many terrifying ghosts chasing after them, their faces immediately turned green.
After I jumped on the boat, the boatman looked at the unconscious people following me from the shore and said, "The boat is too small to take them all away at once. We have to send them to the other side in batches. Before that, you must stop those little ghosts from chasing us!"
I nodded, released Su Xiaoniu's spirit, and returned to shore. Qiao Xiaomu stared at me in horror. It seemed she was still conscious, and hadn't been drained of her yang energy like those people had… Actually, women have less yang energy in their bodies, and more yin. They should have captured men for the Ghost King Festival; after all, men have more yang energy!
I slapped my forehead. What a time to think about this! I immediately went over and stuck a cleansing spell talisman on Qiao Xiaomu's forehead, then tore it off. Qiao Xiaomu took a sharp breath and shouted in panic, "You are...Xu Fei?"
I nodded. "Yes, we have met before. Your boyfriend Yu Jie asked me to come here. I have a lot of questions to ask you, but now is not the time. You should get on the boat first."
Qiao Xiaomu nodded and got on the boat obediently.
Dust was rising in the distance, and a rustling sound could be heard from the woods, accompanied by bursts of ghostly howls and wolves' howls spreading from all directions.
Those little ghosts should be here soon!
I hurriedly sent the people who followed them to the shore onto the boat one by one. Among them were several men in police uniforms. They should be the policemen who entered the village with Feng Ling to investigate the case of missing tourists.
The first group of people squeezed into the boat, about seven or eight, and the boatman took them to the other side first. There were still about twenty people left on the shore, and they had to go back and forth at least three times!
Turning around, I saw the rustling sounds in the distance getting closer and closer, and I knew that the little ghosts were coming.
Su Xiaoniu said calmly: "My soul has left this place. Now you can do it freely. Do you have the golden light magic talisman on you?"
I felt my pocket and shook my head, "No...it's all in my bag."
"Where's the pen and ink?"
“It’s also in the bag…”
Su Xiaoniu was intoxicated at the time: "I've made you so careless! Forget it, how much yellow paper is left?"
I pulled a stack of yellow paper from my pocket and counted it. There were about five or six yellow papers and three blue talismans left. The rest were all in my bag...
I won't use the blue talisman for now, Su Xiaoniu asked me to use my own blood to draw the talisman. I was a little scared. I would fail even if I used pen and ink to draw the talisman. How wasteful would it be to use blood directly to draw the talisman!
Su Xiaoniu said angrily, "Do you think you can handle hundreds of wandering ghosts by yourself?"
I shook my head decisively. This is simply impossible!
Su Xiaoniu said, "So, while there's still some time, draw the Golden Light Divine Mantra immediately. As long as the Golden Light Divine Mantra is drawn, no matter how many little ghosts there are, as long as they are within the range of the golden light, they will all be reduced to ashes!"
I gritted my teeth and had to give it a try!
He immediately slammed a piece of yellow paper onto the ground, bit his finger, and quickly began to draw a golden divine spell. A chilling wind blew around him, and a terrifying humming sound echoed in his ears, adding a touch of creepiness to the empty, dark night under the bleak moonlight.
What annoyed me was that just as I'd drawn two crimson runes with blood, two wild ghosts in white rushed towards me, accompanied by a chilling wind. I stepped on the yellow paper and swung the Seven Star Sword forward, striking them squarely. As expected, screams erupted, and the two white-clad ghosts were instantly reduced to ashes.
I immediately squatted down and continued to draw talismans with blood.
A crisp sound echoed from the woods, and then more than a dozen white shadows rushed out and attacked me at high speed. I frowned, picked up the Seven Star Sword again, and swung it fiercely around me. With a crackling sound, several little ghosts turned to ash. The Seven Star Sword stabbed in the four directions again. After a burst of ghostly howls, my ears suddenly became much quieter.
I put down my sword and continued to squat and draw talismans.
At the same time, the boatman had begun to transport the second batch of living people to the other side. After the third time, there were only five or six unconscious living people left on the shore.
After I eliminated dozens more wild ghosts, the Golden Light Divine Mantra began to take shape. All I had to do was add a few important instructions, and it would be complete. Just then, the ghost master's snarky laughter echoed from behind me: "Thinking about taking them all out? You're too naive."
I was shocked. When did the Ghost Master appear behind me? I didn't even feel it!
When I turned my head, I saw the ghost master grabbing a woman and opening his mouth to suck. I was surprised to see a stream of white air flowing out of the woman's mouth, and then the woman's flesh and skin were corroded away in an instant, until finally it turned into a skeleton.
