Chapter 80: Ghosts of Huai Town



Li Changan felt that these two guys were too disrespectful to people... and they respected ghosts.

He is also a ghost, and has been doing evil in Huai Town for more than half a year. Everyone is terrified of him, but these two guys just sit on the beams and eat melon seeds as if they were watching a show?

"I said..."

Li Changan's face was gloomy. "Give me one too."

Well, if I'm the only one who's afraid of that female ghost, wouldn't that be embarrassing?

At that time, Li Changan and the other two, each holding a handful of melon seeds, squatted on the beams and started arguing with each other, with some "pooh" sounds interspersed throughout the conversation.

Midnight was approaching, the moonlight was bright, and suddenly a cold wind blew up, and the temperature, which was originally a little hot, dropped a lot in an instant.

Li Changan shuddered subconsciously.

"ghost……"

Shen Qingyi's lips trembled slightly, as if she was afraid and excited, pointing at the red figure that seemed to appear out of thin air on the street dozens of feet away.

Just as the restaurant owner said, this man was floating in the air out of thin air, dressed in red, with his head strangely folded behind his back, his long black hair gently fluttering, and maggots crawling all over his face.

vomit……

Now it was Li Changan's turn to vomit.

Damn, it’s the middle of the night, and this thing is too creepy.

Without waiting for Li Changan to speak, Nezha, who was squatting on the side, spat out the melon seed shells, jumped down from the beam, and rushed straight towards the female ghost. His right hand shook, and the Yin-Yang swords appeared and slashed straight at the female ghost's neck.

The female ghost seemed to have just noticed Nezha and froze in place. The next moment, a pair of gray eyes without pupils stared straight at Li Changan, and a sharp whistle suddenly came.

Li Changan shivered all over and almost rolled down from the beam.

Look carefully, I'm not the one hitting you. Are you crazy to scare me?

Li Changan keenly discovered that after the female ghost's shrill howl, Shen Qingyi and Nezha's expressions became a little dazed, and even the movements of their hands slowed down a bit.

On the contrary, I was not affected at all.

Soul power attack.

"Damn it, is this thing an ordinary ghost? It must be a cultivator's Yang God that mutated into a Yin God, or he has obtained some kind of secret technique."

Li Changan gritted his teeth and slapped Shen Qingyi awake, "Go help Nezha, she's no match for this guy alone."

Shen Qingyi responded, and the flying sword in her hand flew out, slashing straight towards the red-clothed female ghost in the distance. The terrifying sword energy cut the female ghost in half, shattering her with a loud bang.

But the next moment, at the entrance of the alley several feet away, a red shadow flashed, and the figure of the female ghost appeared again.

"Your flying sword can't deal with the Yin God, it's useless against her!"

"Damn it! I'm going to waste my stock again."

As Li Changan spoke, he took out a yellow paper talisman from his storage bag. The talisman ignited in the wind and turned into a ball of fire that flashed over and instantly enveloped the female ghost who had just taken shape.

The flowing fire turned into a net of light. The female ghost let out a shrill roar when it was slightly touched. Slowly, her body became a little illusory and she slumped in the net of light without moving.

After Nezha came to his senses, he saw the female ghost trapped in the light net and approached her with curiosity.

"Is this a ghost? It's nothing to be afraid of..."

As he spoke, he reached out a hand through the light net and poked the ghost girl's face.

Li Changan: "..."

Although I am in the same group with this guy, I always feel that he is going too far.

"Don't worry, this paper talisman is the soul-binding talisman from Aries Academy. It's very effective against ordinary ghosts and spirits." Li Changan explained when he saw Shen Qingyi, who looked a little frightened.

"But it's a bit strange. This female ghost knows some techniques for dealing with spirits. She shouldn't be an ordinary Yin spirit, but... she seems much weaker than I imagined."

"If a cultivator's Yang Shen mutated, it wouldn't be so easy to deal with."

Just a soul-binding talisman was enough to suppress the female ghost, which was indeed beyond Li Changan's expectations.

"Perhaps this is just an ordinary Yin God. Look, this ghost spirit seems to have no intelligence." Shen Qingyi turned around with a strange look on her face.

"Maybe. Never mind for now. Let's collect it first."

As he spoke, he waved his right hand, and the light net that trapped the female ghost slowly shrank. A walnut-sized light ball in the border town was received by him into the storage bag.

"I'm done. Damn it. I'm like a psycho staying up all night. It's so exhausting."

Li Changan rubbed his numb shoulders and said, "You two should be quiet. I'll go back and make up for it."

The next day, as soon as Li Changan opened his eyes, he saw Shen Qingyi standing by the bed, staring at him with wide eyes.

"My goodness, when did you come in?"

Li Changan pulled the quilt over himself and looked at the pillar that held the sky high. Suddenly, he felt a little shy. "You didn't see anything, did you?"

Shen Qingyi looked a little strange, "Brother, someone died in Huai Town again last night!"

"What?" Li Changan was stunned.

"Last night, south of Huai Town, a family of four died in their room. They didn't have any injuries on their bodies. It must have been caused by the ghost extinguishing the yang fire."

Li Changan sat up suddenly and checked his storage bag immediately. He found that the female ghost he caught last night was still trapped in the soul-binding talisman.

"Could it be that there is more than one ghost wreaking havoc on Huai Town?"

Li Changan frowned, subconsciously feeling that the situation was a bit tricky.

Logically speaking, ghosts, like wild beasts, also have a sense of territory, especially ghosts that have reached a certain level of cultivation. Even if they have not yet developed intelligence, they will subconsciously be hostile to other ghosts.

In other words, the most normal phenomenon is that there is only one ghost haunting Huaizhen.

But now, a second one appeared.

"It seems that this matter is not as simple as we expected before." Li Changan said carefully.

"If Huaizhen doesn't have a special attraction for ghosts, then there must be another dark force behind these ghosts."

"You mean, someone is controlling these ghosts behind the scenes?"

Li Changan nodded.

"It could be a more powerful ghost or a powerful monk. This is the most reasonable explanation."

Shen Qingyi's expression slowly changed.

Li Changan gritted his teeth and said, "Let's stay for another day and wait tonight to see if we can find out who is behind this."

"good!"

Li Changan did not stay in the restaurant waiting for dark, but took advantage of the day when the sun was at its peak to check the surroundings of Huai Town.

The Feng Shui fortune of Huaizhen is very ordinary. It is not the evil place that he expected. In this case, the first possibility is ruled out.

What remains is his second guess.

There are cultivators who control ghosts behind the scenes, depriving the living of their yang fire so they can practice evil skills.

Li Changan felt a little annoyed when he thought of all this. If he stayed to take care of this trivial matter, he might put himself in danger, but if he just left, he couldn't stand the resentful and angry look of Shen Qingyi.

"Damn it, I'm still too soft-hearted."

Just when he was feeling a little conflicted, a cold gaze flashed across Li Changan.

There is a problem!

Li Changan was shocked.
