Volume 1, Chapter 84: Repel the Ghosts
Xiang Yun frowned when he heard this, obviously angry at Xiao Guazi's words. He couldn't help coughing twice and walked to the door holding the edge of the carriage.
He lifted the carriage curtain and looked out, only to see thousands of ghosts causing chaos in front of him. A large number of Lieyang Army soldiers were smashed and flew everywhere, and the ghost monks were all opening their bloody mouths and biting living people.
Xiao Guazi, who was standing next to him, was so frightened by this scene that his crotch was wet. A pungent and foul smell came, causing Xiang Yun to frown.
Just ten seconds after Xiang Yun stuck his head out, all the ghost monks stopped and turned their heads towards Xiang Yun's direction.
Seeing that all the ghost monks were looking at him, and each of them had a ferocious and eager look in their eyes, Xiang Yun remained calm, and quietly retreated back into the carriage and put down the cloth, as if nothing had happened.
Xiang Yun, who had retreated into the carriage, turned pale in an instant, his body began to tremble, and he screamed in his heart: "What the hell is going on!"
"What did I see just now? Was that a ghost? And they were all monks, are you kidding me?"
No matter how domineering Xiang Yun was, when he encountered a ghost for the first time, his first reaction was fear, so he panicked for a moment.
Outside the carriage, all the ghost monks stopped what they were doing, opened their bloody mouths and roared as they rushed towards the carriage.
Apparently the scent that attracted them tonight came from inside the carriage, from that person just now!
"Hey, why is there no noise outside?" The surroundings suddenly became quiet. Xiang Yun was extremely curious in the carriage and couldn't help but secretly lift the curtain to look outside.
This was a shocking sight. A ghost monk was also looking into the carriage in front of the cloth. When Xiang Yun lifted it up, the two of them stared at each other.
The ghost monk opened his bloody mouth, obviously stunned, and couldn't help but exhale a breath of foul air. The pungent smell made Xiang Yun dizzy.
"Fuck you!" Xiang Yun immediately started cursing and kicked the stinky head of the evil monk in front of him.
The ghost monk screamed, and the next moment his body exploded, and he was trampled to death by Xiang Yun.
Xiang Yun was shocked by the result. He secretly put away the solar energy on his feet and thought to himself, "This damn thing... seems very weak?"
Xiang Yun was very calm, without any hesitation, he walked out with his head held high, bit his finger, used the blood as a guide, and shouted: "Great Sun Emperor Sword!"
A ray of light flashed, and the bright armor instantly appeared on Xiang Yun. The Great Sun Emperor Sword was pulled out of the air by him, and then behind Xiang Yun, a phantom of a scorching sun condensed by the sun's source energy slowly rose up, looking dazzling.
Xiang Yun held the Great Sun Emperor Sword in his hand, looked at these evil monks coldly, and shouted angrily: "Get lost!"
As soon as the word "roll" came out, the great sun energy all over Xiang Yun's body exploded, and even the carriage under him could not withstand it and exploded in all directions.
When these thousands of ghost monks saw Xiang Yun's terrifying power, they were so frightened that they screamed and fled in all directions, and no one dared to face Yun directly.
In less than a minute, these thousands of ghost monks disappeared without a trace, as if they had never appeared.
Seeing that there were no more ghosts around, Xiang Yun withdrew his magical powers, held on to the carriage that had been blown to pieces beside him, and began to cough violently.
It was obvious that he had not yet recovered from his illness, as his body could not bear the movement just now.
Xiao Guazi regained his composure at this time and hurried forward to support Xiang Yun.
"Your Majesty, you are finally awake. I have been worried sick these days!"
Xiang Yun smelled the stench on Xiao Guazi's body and couldn't help but frown. He covered his nose and cursed, "Don't disgust me. Go change your clothes and come back!"
"I still have to serve His Majesty..." Xiao Guazi said awkwardly. Suddenly, he shifted his gaze to the little nun Lingzhi who was secretly watching Xiang Yun in the distance, and his face couldn't help but brighten up.
Little Guazi ran over and said, "Lady Lingzhi, our Majesty has been ill these past few days. It must be caused by evil spirits. Could you please go over and take a look at His Majesty and help me take care of him?"
"Ah? Oh, okay!"
The little girl Lingzhi had long been stunned by Xiang Yun's domineering and handsome scene of driving away thousands of ghosts. After hearing what Xiaoguazi said, she agreed timidly, then walked towards Yun with her head down.
Xiang Yun had seen her when Xiao Guazi called her "Empress". His heart was suddenly warmed by her beauty and figure, and the anger that had been accumulating for the past few months suddenly came out.
Although she was dressed as a nun, it did not affect Xiang Yun's excitement at all.
As Lingzhi got closer, Xiang Yun's breathing became increasingly rapid, his whole body felt hot, and he felt extremely uncomfortable.
Lingzhi walked up to Xiang Yun and said softly, "I have learned some medical knowledge. I don't know much about serious illnesses, but I know a little about minor illnesses and pains. Stretch out your hand and let me see it."
Xiang Yun just looked at her without saying a word, and even foolishly stretched out his arm towards her, but he stretched it so high that he accidentally rubbed Lingzhi's tender little cheek.
Both of them were speechless. A faint fragrance entered Xiang Yun's nostrils, making him feel very comfortable. Lingzhi was only concerned with taking his pulse, but for some reason the roots of his ears had turned almost red and were very hot and swollen.
All the soldiers in the distance stood up and returned to their posts. No one came to help Wu Guotao. He could only sigh and say, "Master Jikong, I'm sorry!"
After saying that, he picked up the unconscious Nun Jikong, found an air tent and went in, and placed Nun Jikong on a temporary bed.
After Xiao Guazi changed into new clothes, he came out and saw Xiang Yun and Ling Zhi standing face to face without saying anything. He couldn't help but scold, "These grown men really don't know how to do things. Don't they know that His Majesty can't stand the cold now?"
Xiao Guazi quickly found an air tent for Xiang Yun, made the bed and came to Xiang Yun's side. At this time, the little nun Lingzhi said softly: "Your pulse is weak, and your body must be very weak, but you don't have any other illness, so you just need to rest for a few more days to recover."
"Oh, really? I feel relieved when you say that." Xiang Yun also replied quickly.
Little Guazi was not happy. He could see Xiang Yun's thoughts very well. His eyes seemed to see through Lingzhi.
Little Guazi shouted loudly: "Lady Lingzhi, how can you diagnose the disease in a place like this? Come to a quiet place and take a good look at your majesty. Look carefully inside and out. Don't miss any disease. If you leave a root cause of the disease, it will be bad!"
Xiang Yun secretly praised Xiao Guazi for being sensible, then pretended to be in pain and said with staggering steps: "I am still a little uncomfortable~"
After Xiang Yun finished speaking, she fell towards the direction where Lingzhi was. The little nun Lingzhi had no choice but to support Xiang Yun. Although she didn't say anything, her face turned red.
Little Guazi at the side hurriedly shouted in panic: "Your Majesty, please don't let anything happen to you!
Lady Lingzhi, please help His Majesty to go to the tent and rest, don't delay the dragon's health!"
Xiao Guazi pointed at the military tent that had just been prepared and shouted in panic. Lingzhi was helpless. Seeing that the two men did not look like they were pretending, she let out a long sigh and supported Xiang Yun and slowly walked towards the military tent.
Lingzhi felt extremely uncomfortable at this moment. She felt something strange in her body, her heartbeat accelerated, she felt hot and had difficulty breathing. She had never experienced this kind of condition since she was a child and it felt extremely strange.
Especially my own heartbeat, which was getting faster and faster, thump thump, as if I could hear it. Could it be that I was sick too?
After the two of them slowly walked into the military tent, Xiao Guazi quickly closed the tent door and stood guard outside the tent. He looked up at the sky with a happy smile, muttering in his heart: "This little white rabbit has entered a den of thieves and wolves. There is no way he can escape~".
Lingzhi helped Xiang Yun to sit down beside the bed. Xiang Yun quickly grabbed her little hand and placed it on his wrist, saying softly, "Come, feel my pulse again."
After Xiang Yun finished speaking, he did not let go of her hand. He just held her little hand tightly, as if nothing had happened.
Lingzhi wanted to take her hand back, but she had to take Xiang Yun's pulse. She had no choice but to feel his pulse carefully with a red face and analyze Xiang Yun's physical condition.
Xiang Yun had never seen such a shy girl, so he teased her, "You are so beautiful, it would be a pity to be a nun. You might as well return to secular life. Life in this world is very colorful."
"Ah?" Lingzhi was stunned when she heard that, and then immediately said in panic: "No, I have followed my master since I was young. I vowed to devote myself to Buddhism, save all living beings, and save the world from suffering. I will not be contaminated by anything in the world."
Xiang Yun thought she was cute, so he smiled and scratched her nose with his hand. Ling Zhi quickly covered her nose, and stepped back a few steps in fear, not daring to look at Xiang Yun in panic.
Before Lingzhi could think more, Xiang Yun continued to deceive her, "There is obviously a logical problem with your oath. It doesn't make sense!"
"Why isn't it working?" Lingzhi frowned and asked softly.
Xiang Yun smiled and explained: "Look, aren't the people of this world suffering because they live in the mortal world? If you are not tainted by it at all, how can you save people? Isn't the prerequisite for saving all living beings to enter the mortal world?"
"Ah?" Lingzhi obviously didn't react to Xiang Yun's twisted logic and started to think about it carefully.
Xiang Yun didn't give her a chance to think, and continued, "Look, I am a mortal, and that ghost monk is a monster in the mortal world, right?"
As Xiang Yun spoke, he approached Lingzhi, then took her hand, held her hands together, and Xiang Yun lifted them up and said, "Look, you touched my hand, so you are contaminated by the world, right?"
Lingzhi's mind was already confused after hearing these words, and looking at Xiang Yun's sincere eyes, she remembered the scene when he was wearing Ming Guang Armor and holding the Great Sun Emperor Sword, and drove away thousands of ghost monks. Her heart trembled involuntarily, and she nodded foolishly.
Xiang Yun struck while the iron was hot and raised his hand to gently touch Lingzhi's little head, scaring Lingzhi so much that she stepped back involuntarily. Xiang Yun immediately said, "Don't move!"
Just these two words frightened Lingzhi so much that she froze up, not daring to move an inch. Xiang Yun's hand slid down from her little head again, stroking her dark hair, and finally pinched a strand of it and said with a smile, "Look, although you are a monk, you practice with your hair uncut. What does that mean?"
"This is the master's decision!" Lingzhi said softly.
Xiang Yun smiled slightly and continued, "This hair is the silk of the mortal world. As a monk, you have not yet cut off the silk of the mortal world, so you are not yet a nun. If you return to secular life now, you still have a chance!"
