Chapter 226 Old Lady
Jiang Yunxi curled her red lips slightly. It seemed that Madam Gu and Jinxiu had both been captured and were still being held in the same place. She quickly stood up and walked outside, even though it was a bit late.
But she still had to go and check to prevent them from encountering any accidents.
Jiang Yunxi did not go alone. She told the guard at the palace gate that after Zhan Beiyuan returned home, she asked him to find her at Fanghua Courtyard. She then went to the guest house to find Taoist Qingxu and Qingyang Miaoyin.
When the three heard that there was work to do, they immediately became energetic.
Then the four of them sat together and drew talismans.
Although I don’t know what the other party is collecting ghosts for, it is definitely not a good thing.
When Zhan Beiyuan came back, he saw the four of them sitting at the table writing and drawing.
"What are you doing?" Zhan Beiyuan asked with some confusion.
"The souls of Madam Gu and Jinxiu have been captured. My formation has detected their locations. We are waiting for you to come back. Now we have to go and take a look." Jiang Yunxi stood up and said.
As for whether they will take action when they get there, it depends on the situation.
"Okay." Zhan Beiyuan was somewhat glad that she was waiting for him to go together instead of going directly. He could still help deal with the evil spirits.
The five people quickly left the palace.
Jiang Yunxi had already determined the location of Madam Gu and Jinxiu on the formation. When she led everyone there, the road gradually became familiar, which was the direction they were heading to the charity cemetery.
Behind the charity cemetery is the empty village.
Arrived at the entrance of Zhuangzi.
Jiang Yunxi stopped. Although there was moonlight, from a distance, Zhuangzi was pitch black and silent.
"Are all those ghosts here?" Taoist Qingxu lowered his voice. They had all come here when they were looking for Pei Heng's body last time, but he didn't sense anything strange at that time.
Yun Xi’s detection must be correct, all the ghosts that were taken away are here.
"I can't seem to sense it." Qingyang said after sensing it.
"I can't sense it either. Is it isolated from the outside world by the formation?" Miaoyin looked around sharply. Otherwise, if there were ghosts here, they would be able to sense it.
Jiang Yunxi stared at the farm hidden in the darkness in the distance. The last time she came here, it was just an ordinary farm and she didn't notice anything unusual.
Even now, she still didn't sense any unusual aura.
But her formation cannot be wrong.
The souls of Madam Gu and Jinxiu are indeed in this manor.
"They are here, but we can't sense them. There is only one possibility. There is a powerful formation set up here that hides them all." Jiang Yunxi said lightly.
"That's right, should we go in now?" Taoist Qingxu stroked his beard.
"If we are not sure, going in now will only alert the enemy and may not even save the ghost, and we will be in trouble." Jiang Yunxi said solemnly.
So she had to be cautious and didn't dare rush in directly.
"Why don't we come back tomorrow during the day?" Zhan Beiyuan suggested. The last time they came, they were only thinking about finding Pei Heng's body and did not carefully observe the manor.
Maybe you can see something better during the day.
"Yun Xi, I think King Han is right. It is indeed difficult to find it in the dark, mainly because we can't sense the ghosts. It is better for us to go home and discuss countermeasures before taking any action." Taoist Qingxu said.
This is more cautious.
Jiang Yunxi nodded after considering it. He really couldn't act impulsively now.
…
The next day.
At the breakfast table.
"Do you still remember what I said last time about the resurrection of the thousand-year-old female corpse?" Jiang Yunxi asked the people present.
Zhan Beiyuan and others nodded.
They also wanted to find the female corpse and get the Tiandao Pearl in her body.
"I wonder if the collection of ghosts is related to the resurrected female corpse." Jiang Yunxi said her guess. She suddenly thought of the female corpse last night.
Meng Po said that the female corpse was buried with Zhuangzi.
She wanted to go to the place where the female corpse was buried and see if she could find anything.
"That female corpse is really hard to find, mainly because she is a human being after she was resurrected, no different from us. It is really difficult to find her." Miaoyin complained. They have been hanging out outside every day these days.
Finding the female corpse is as difficult as looking for a needle in a haystack.
"Don't look for it anymore. It's really hard to find him in such a huge crowd of people. Prince Han and I will go to the charity cemetery later. Don't go there first. There are too many people and it will attract attention." Jiang Yunxi said.
She and Zhan Beiyuan went to investigate first.
Taoist Qingxu nodded. He felt relieved that they could go together.
He heard from Yun Xi that the righteous power in Zhan Beiyuan's body had awakened and was able to deal with evil spirits. With him around, he could naturally help Yun Xi.
After breakfast.
Jiang Yunxi and Zhan Beiyuan left the palace together and went to Huangquan first. Only Meng Po knew where the female corpse was buried.
When Meng Po learned that they were going to the tomb of the female corpse, she was happy to take them.
The three of them went to Zhuangzi together.
"Why do you suddenly want to visit the grave of the female corpse? Do you have any clues about her?" Meng Po asked curiously.
"You've seen her but there's no clue, so how can we get any clues? Why don't we go to her grave and take a look? Maybe there will be clues." Jiang Yunxi said casually.
Meng Po nodded, "That's what you said."
Jiang Yunxi thought for a moment and said, "You are from the Southern Barbarians, so you must understand the mystical arts, right?"
Meng Po: "This is natural."
"If someone collects ghosts, what do you think they are used for?" Jiang Yunxi asked. She was bored anyway, so she might as well chat. She felt that Meng Po was not simple and should know a lot.
"Ghost generals are puppets of evil cultivators. They use souls to sacrifice and refine magical instruments. Evil cultivators devour souls to improve their realm, use the souls of others to bear the backlash for themselves, use souls to maintain formations, or use souls to refine medicine." Meng Po thought for a while and said.
"You know so much." Jiang Yunxi smiled. What she said did exist, but most people didn't know about it, and these were all forbidden techniques.
"There are too many books about metaphysics in the Nanman area. I have read a lot and only know a few things." Meng Po said slowly.
"Was it left behind by the ancestors of your divine race?" Jiang Yunxi asked, otherwise ordinary people would not know about it.
Meng Po's tone was full of pride, "Of course."
Jiang Yunxi didn't say anything else.
The three of them soon arrived at the village.
When Jiang Yunxi saw the door of the Liao family's yard open, she walked towards there and saw old lady Liao sitting on a chair in the yard, sewing and mending with needle and thread in her hand.
"old lady."
When Old Lady Liao heard the voices, she quickly looked up. Seeing that it was Jiang Yunxi and Zhan Beiyuan, she quickly put down what she was holding and stood up. "I greet King Han and Miss Jiang."
Jiang Yunxi glanced around the yard and asked, "Do you still plan to live here?"
She did not participate in Pei Lie's murder, so the government naturally would not put her in jail, so she was not affected.
Old Mrs. Liao smiled bitterly and said, "Without anyone else at home, I can live anywhere by myself, but I'd rather live at home to get used to it."
"We want to go to the basement where Pei Heng's body is placed." Jiang Yunxi said.
