"Ah? Night Walker?"

Zhang Fan was very surprised when he heard the system's prompt and stood there in a daze.

This legendary resurrected brother turned out to be the night wandering god that he had been looking for!

This is such a coincidence...it really comes without any effort.

Ward 208 really lives up to its reputation!

According to the system's introduction, this Night Wandering God is still the same as before and cannot bear to see anyone suffer.

In this case, it shouldn't be a problem to ask him to help deal with the Yin-Yang Blood Demon.

After thinking it through, Zhang Fan immediately said:

"Yang Er, this elder brother and I are acquainted with each other. How about this? Let's go to Zhaojia Village together this time to ease the relationship between us. What do you think?"

"Of course that's no problem!"

Yang Er nodded decisively, looked at Huang Youlong and said, "Brother Youlong, are you okay too?"

"I..." Huang Youlong's eyes flashed with hesitation, and finally nodded and said, "Okay, then I will go on this trip with Brother Sangzang."

"That's great." Yang Er smiled from the bottom of his heart, patted the dog's back and asked, "Brother Sangzang, you mean to go to Zhaojia Village to find brothers Wang Kai and Zhao Yong, right?"

"That's right, the sooner the better!" Zhang Fan nodded.

"Don't worry, the dog is well fed today! He'll find a place in no time."

Yang Er patted his chest to make a promise, then bent down and whispered something in Erha's ear.

I saw the Husky lower its head slightly, revealing a look full of wisdom, and then it kept turning its tail, trying hard to sniff something.

"Woof! Woof!"

After a moment, Erha raised his proud head and shouted at Yang Er in a low voice.

After receiving the signal, Yang Er said confidently: "Brother Funeral, we found it, let's go!"

“So soon?”

Zhang Fan looked surprised, but finally, under Yang Er's affirmative gaze, he chose to lead the way out.

When everyone walked out of the inpatient department, the discharge plan of the Second Hospital had been basically implemented.

The fellow patients were chasing each other and running towards the hospital gate like crazy. Who knows what kind of trouble this would cause in South City. Zhang Fan was in no mood to think about this.

The group walked around the patients who were being discharged and arrived at the hospital gate.

However, when Liu Jun habitually went to open the car door and drove away, he suddenly froze in place.

"Um...Lee Donghae?"

The driver's seat had been occupied at some point.

"Li Donghai, what are you doing? Come down, come down!" The upright Li Shaohui spoke first.

Li Donghai calmly rolled down the window, poked his head out and said with a smile: "We are going to Zhaojia Village, right?"

"Get in the car, I know a shortcut!"

"It's not a short route, the key is that there's not enough room in the car!" Li Shaohui insisted: "Brother, you get off first and tell me the story of the Dragon King of the East China Sea tonight."

"Let's squeeze in."

At this time, Zhang Fan suddenly spoke, opened the door and sat in the back row.

"Boss Zhang, this... okay."

Li Shaohui was a little puzzled, but he did not dare to object to Zhang Fan's decision.

In the end, Yang Er sat in the passenger seat holding the dog, while Zhang Fan, Master and Apprentice Liu Jun, and Huang Youlong squeezed in the back seat.

Although Liu Jun and Li Shaohui were already in spirit form, Zhang Fan and the other man still subconsciously made way for them.

After all, we've seen it, so we can't force it to overlap.

…

With the cooperation of Yang Er and Li Donghai, the group took various routes and successfully arrived at their destination in just fifteen minutes.

After getting off the car, Zhang Fan first observed the surrounding environment.

At this time, the car was parked on a mountain, and no one knew how Li Donghae drove the car up.

The mountain is towering into the clouds, with continuous ridges and lush forests everywhere. Various trees are intertwined together, like a green ocean.

At this time, Yang Er pointed to a steep cliff in front and said:

"Brother Sangzang, down here is Zhaojia Village!"

"Um?"

Zhang Fan followed Yang Er's gaze and was immediately surprised by the scene before him.

Through the clouds, he could clearly see that there was a small village under the top of the mountain.

This village is surrounded by mountains on all sides. From this angle, it looks like a huge natural pit or a cage.

"This... there is actually a village down here? I'm afraid it's isolated from the world!"

After becoming a Soul Catcher, Liu Jun's vision was greatly enhanced. He also saw the prototype of Zhaojia Village and couldn't help but sigh.

It is hard to imagine how the people of Zhaojia Village have survived to this day.

Looking from the mountain, Zhaojia Village not only has no land suitable for farming, but there is not even any obvious water source.

"Could it be that the people in Zhaojia Village are born without food or drink?" Li Shaohui was also surprised.

At this time, Li Donghai, who couldn't wait any longer, said, "Sangzang brother, can't you get down?"

"Of course." Zhang Fan nodded.

"Then... jump down? Or should I help you find a shortcut?" Li Donghai asked tentatively.

"Just jump, I guarantee you will be safe and sound!" Huang Youlong said suddenly.

"Okay, that's enough for Brother Resurrection!"

Zhang Fan smiled jokingly, then jumped towards Zhaojia Village without hesitation and disappeared from everyone's sight.

Seeing this, Yang Er and Li Donghai followed decisively.

After hesitating for a moment, Liu Jun and Li Shaohui gritted their teeth and jumped down.

However, when they jumped into the air, they suddenly discovered that they could actually float.

…

Three minutes later, everyone successfully met up on a small road in Zhaojia Village.

Zhaojia Village is built in such a place, far away from nature and modern cities.

Most of the buildings in the village are made of wood, with moss-covered eaves and walls carved with traces of age.

There are not many streets in Zhaojia Village, but they are winding enough. The roads are paved with bluestone, and the roadside is full of dead trees and grass.

Yang Er led his group around the village and was almost certain that there was no one left in the village.

Seeing Yang Er's panic, Zhang Fan took the initiative to ask: "Yang Er, can't you find the specific location?"

"Brother Funeral, I can't find it...it seems there are restrictions in this village..." Yang Er said ashamedly.

"Are you sure they are in the village?" Zhang Fan asked.

"Yes!" Yang Er nodded hurriedly, "But I just can't find the exact location."

"Um……"

Zhang Fan looked thoughtful and squinted his eyes.

"Taoist temple!"

"Zhaojia Village has produced many Taoist priests throughout the ages, so there must be a Taoist temple dedicated to it by the whole village."

Yang Er: "Okay, let's split up!"

After coming up with an idea, everyone immediately spread out and quickly searched for the Taoist temple in Zhaojia Village.

The Husky brought by Yang Er seemed to understand what people said. It jumped back and forth on the houses, big and small, looking for the shadow of the Taoist temple.

Zhaojia Village is not big, but it seems to have some magical power that almost makes people dizzy.

“Woof woof woof!”

After a full fifteen minutes, the barking of a dog was heard from the easternmost part of the village.

Hearing the dog barking, everyone knew that No. 2 had found the Taoist temple, so they hurriedly moved towards the dog to feel at ease.

Sure enough, when all the people gathered to the east of Zhaojia Village, they saw an ancient Taoist temple in front of them.

This Taoist temple is nearly ten meters high. For Zhaojia Village, it is undoubtedly a luxurious building.

However, the Taoist temple no longer had its former magnificence and solemnity.

The wooden door had turned yellow after being exposed to wind and rain, with irregular cracks crisscrossing it, and the copper ring on the door was so rusted that it was completely unrecognizable.

"Let's go in and see what's going on."

Zhang Fan frowned slightly and took the lead into the Taoist temple.

What comes into view is the old main hall of the Taoist temple.

"Qingfeng Temple..."

The color of the plaque has faded for some reason, but the three words "Qingfeng Temple" are still faintly visible, perhaps it is the spirituality of the Taoist temple.

The columns on both sides of the main hall also looked desolate and decadent, covered with unclear carvings that were completely incomprehensible.

But this is the Taoist temple in Zhaojia Village after all, and it must have been exquisite enough in the past.

Entering the temple,

On the high altar are three weathered wooden statues, the statues of the Three Pure Ones.

Although it is in ruins, one can still feel a hint of its sacred majesty.

"Wow, can this be considered a Taoist temple?"

Li Donghae casually looked around the Taoist temple and jokingly said, "Fortunately this is not the Dragon King Temple, otherwise I would have to make it rain."

"It's really thanks to the three gentlemen who are here to take charge, otherwise this Taoist temple would have collapsed long ago."

As he spoke, Li Donghae slowly reached out his hand and tried to wipe the dust off the wooden sculpture.

However, at this moment, a slight cough suddenly sounded.

“Cough, cough, cough, cough…”

"Digging a groove?"

Li Donghae was frightened by the cough and thought it was the appearance of the god. He fell to his knees without hesitation with a plop.

"Grandmaster, I have practiced Taoism before, please spare my life!"

Although they are colleagues, the gap between Lee Donghae and Samqing is huge.

Not to mention that these are just three statues. If he really offends the Three Pure Ones, he might become a small shrimp at any time.

"Brother Sangzang, Yang Er, Brother Youlong, kneel down quickly, don't let the Three Pure Ones vent their anger on you!"

While begging for mercy, Li Donghai did not forget to pull Zhang Fan and others to kneel down together.

However, Zhang Fan and others did not do anything excessive and were much calmer than Li Donghai at this time.

Zhang Fan showed suspicion in his eyes and slowly moved his legs and feet, walking towards the back of the wood carving.

"Boss, are you here?"

The weak voice sounded again, and this time Zhang Fan finally heard it clearly.

The voice belonged to none other than Zhang Fan, the person they were looking for.

"Brother Kai?"

Zhang Fan was stunned for a moment, then quickened his pace and came behind the statue.

However, the scene before him made Zhang Fan shocked.

I saw two people sitting cross-legged on the ground. If you didn't look carefully, you couldn't tell that they were Wang Kai and Zhao Yong.

They were breathing weakly, their bodies had been completely petrified and fixed, unable to move at all.

Their muscles were tense and their surface was covered with a layer of hard stone. Every tiny muscle and nerve in their bodies was petrified.

Zhao Yong's side has been completely blocked, and Wang Kai is not feeling well either. A tiny crack appeared on his head, allowing him to release a little ghost to carry him to deliver information.

"Brother Kai, what happened?!" Zhang Fan hurried forward and asked.

"Don't come over here!"

Wang Kai stopped Zhang Fan and explained:

"Boss, something is wrong. The Yin Yang Blood Demon may be resurrected early!"

"Premature resuscitation? What's going on?" Zhang Fan frowned slightly and quickly realized the seriousness of the matter.

The little ghost above Wang Kai's head took a hard breath and spoke with difficulty:

"Old Zhao and I originally came back to the village to take a look, but we didn't expect that Zhaojia Village had become an empty city without us noticing!"

"However, Zhaojia Village is not my home after all, and I don't know what's going on. Old Zhao didn't explain to me. He just dragged me to the Taoist temple and ran over to sit cross-legged, asking me to keep the Taoist temple from collapsing!"

"It wasn't until he was about to be sealed that he told me the whole story."

"I wonder what's going on. Over the years, I've often asked him where the golden bodies of my grandfather and his grandfather were when they passed away, but he just wouldn't tell me."

"It turns out that the place where the two elders passed away is this Zhaojia Village, and Zhaojia Village is actually the gate to hell!"

"What? Zhaojia Village is the gate to hell?"

Zhang Fan looked surprised and said puzzledly, "That's not right... When I came here, I looked at the entire Zhaojia Village from the top of the mountain, and I didn't see any statues."

Wang Kai explained: "Boss, Zhaojia Village was not surrounded by mountains on all sides before, but was backed by mountains on the east and west sides. The other two mountains are the golden statues of the two elders!"

"The two elders' golden bodies are mainly aimed at the Yin Yang Blood Demon. Now that the Golden Mountain is loose, the Yin Yang Blood Demon seems to have regained its freedom!"

"I guess this has something to do with the wandering of my grandfather's soul. Otherwise, the two golden mountains would not have collapsed so quickly!"

Zhang Fan frowned and shook his head, "I still don't quite understand. This Zhaojia Village has produced many Heavenly Masters throughout the ages. How could it be linked to the Gate of Hell? Could it be that there is a traitor in Zhaojia Village?"

"Of course not."

The little ghost turned around and explained:

"Boss, when you came here, did you notice that Zhaojia Village was not shown on the map at all?"

"Yes, that's true." Zhang Fan nodded.

"That's right." Wang Kai continued:

"In fact, this Zhaojia Village is a very different existence. It belongs neither to the world of the living nor to the world of the dead."

"During the day, it is a Feng Shui treasure land in the world, with abundant spiritual energy, so every generation produces heavenly masters."

"But at night, this is the sinful place of the underworld. Rebels gathered here and tried to change the order of time, which led to the appearance of the Gate of Hell!"

"Boss, I won't explain any more. I asked you to conserve your energy because we are preparing for the coming of the Yin Yang Blood Demon!"

"Okay... Yin Yang Blood Demon..."

After hearing what Wang Kai said, Zhang Fan's expression gradually became solemn:

"So should I...go directly to Kunlun Glacier now?"

"No, if nothing unexpected happens, the Yin Yang Blood Demon will head straight to Zhaojia Village as soon as it revives."

Wang Kai shook his head and said, "Two golden mountains, including me and Lao Zhao, this Yin Yang Blood Demon has four seals on his body. He must destroy us first before he can destroy the mountains and rivers."

"So, boss, you just need to sit back and wait for the opportunity."

"Oh, there's one more thing!"

At this point, Wang Kai suddenly thought of something and added:

"The Yin-Yang Blood Demon rushed towards Zhaojia Village from Kunlun Glacier at a very fast speed!"

"Because he has red eyes, wherever he passes, there will be a red moon for thousands of miles around him!"

Zhang Fan: "Red Moon? What is a Red Moon?"

"Boss, you are not strong enough. Find the Night Wanderer as soon as possible. This is related to the survival of the world!"

Seeing that Wang Kai was dying, Zhang Fan wanted to get more information.

Unfortunately, after leaving a few words, the crack above Wang Kai’s head quickly closed and was completely sealed.

"Brother Kai! Brother Yong!"

Zhang Fan witnessed this unbelievable scene, his heart filled with sadness and helplessness.

It happened so suddenly.

I just received news from Brother Yong this morning. Now the two of them are completely gone.

Although they had not experienced any life-and-death disasters, these two good brothers firmly chose themselves when they had nothing and were still useless.

"Brother Zhang Fan, you don't have to be too sad. At worst, we can just summon brothers Wang and Zhao to the underworld. Doesn't the Soul Catcher need anyone else?"

Seeing Zhang Fan’s sad face, Liu Jun comforted him carefully.

Li Shaohui continued, "Master, that's not right. Masters Wang Kai and Zhao Yong were hundreds of times more powerful than us when they were alive. Even if they were employed in the underworld, they should be high-ranking officials."

“That makes sense.”

Zhang Fan narrowed his eyes and instantly didn't look so sad anymore.

It just so happened that the underworld was short of people, and my side was also short of two guardians.

Besides, Brother Yong and Brother Kai only had a few days left to live.

Of course, I still follow the principle of voluntariness and want to see first whether these two good employees are willing to continue working with me.

Thinking of this, Zhang Fan silently opened the Eye of Samsara and locked his gaze on the statues of Zhao Yong and Wang Kai.

[The current target soul has been blocked, please unblock it before insight! ]

[The current target soul has been blocked, please unblock it before insight! ]

"Forehead……"

Zhang Fan was stunned for a moment.

He remembered Wang Kai saying that this statue was used to suppress the Yin-Yang Blood Demon, so he must not break it in advance...

For now, let's plan how to deal with the Yin Yang Blood Demon...
