His heart skipped a beat and he quickly carried her away from Guimen Pass.
When Lu Jingzhi retreated to the east, the dazzling sunlight expelled Yan An's black energy at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Seeing her face gradually turning red, Lu Jingzhi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Master, how are you?"
She leaned on Lu Jingzhi's broad chest and nodded, "Much better. Why is this deathly aura so terrifying? What will happen if I stay here for too long?"
Lu Jingzhi sighed silently and looked at Guimen Pass shrouded in darkness. For a moment, both of them had no idea what to do.
"Master, otherwise let's go back to the village first."
"Well, let's go."
Yan An stood up and took his hand and returned to this strange village.
"Let's ask the people here and find out more about the situation."
He felt like a headless fly, without any understanding of the world, and then he wandered around aimlessly.
"good."
He held Yan An's little hand and came to a lifeless old man with a stab in the chest.
"Uncle? I want to ask you some questions. Is that convenient?"
The uncle slowly raised his head, glanced at him, and said nothing. After being stunned for a few seconds, he lowered his head and staggered towards Guimen Pass.
Then... Lu Jingzhi asked several people one after another, and got the same answer, as if he was attracted by some force.
Lu Jingzhi shook his head helplessly and continued walking towards the village entrance. The longer he walked, the farther he was from Guimen Pass.
He was shocked to find that these souls gradually became conscious and could even communicate with the souls next to them.
"Master, they seem to have intelligence. Let's go and ask them."
Yan An also noticed this and followed him to a woman.
"you?"
Seeing that she could speak, Lu Jingzhi's face lit up with joy, and he quickly asked, "Aunt, I want to ask you some questions, can you help me solve them?"
The woman smiled warmly, "Of course, if you have any questions, just ask."
"Can we get out of this Guimen Pass?"
The woman shook her head. "I don't know."
"Then why do some people seem to have lost their spiritual intelligence?"
"Uh...I don't know."
Lu Jingzhi smiled bitterly and asked again, "How do we resist the death energy?"
"Death energy? What is death energy?"
Seeing that she knew nothing about anything he asked, the fire of hope in Lu Jingzhi's heart was extinguished by three basins of ice water.
"So what do you know?"
"I know that if I want to be reborn in a good way, I have to pay more money and then wait for the order from the strange priest."
"A strange priest?"
The woman nodded and said, "Only if the priest gives the order can we enter Guimen Pass."
Lu Jingzhi pinched his chin and thought to himself, "No wonder those souls went to Guimen Pass like crazy. It turns out they had received a command."
[Who is that strange priest? ]
Lu Jingzhi came back to his senses and asked again, "Is there anything else you know?"
"I don't know. If you want to know more, you can go to the Gui Yamen and ask the Gui official. He knows more than us."
"The Gui Yamen!" the master and disciple said in unison, then looked at each other, "Excuse me, where is the Gui Yamen?"
The woman pointed to the east and said, "It's a thousand meters away."
After Lu Jingzhi clasped his fists and expressed his gratitude, the two of them walked towards the road east of the village...
The realm of Yin and Yang - the strange government office.
Lu Jingzhi came to the door of Gui Yamen and looked up. He saw a plaque with white characters on a black background hanging above the door. On it were two big characters "Gui Yamen" written in ancient and vigorous fonts.
"Master, this is it."
"Well, let's go in."
"good."
The two men stepped onto a few stone steps and were about to enter the gate when suddenly, two strange guards appeared on both sides of the door.
They were wearing tattered armor, as if they had been through countless battles.
He held a long spear in his hand, the tip of the spear flashing with cold light, which made people shudder.
What was even more surprising was that the armor of the two guards was empty and pitch black, with no human figures or souls, as if they were just two empty shells.
"Can we go in?"
“…”
"hello?"
Seeing that they ignored him, Lu Jingzhi took a step forward, ready to go in and find the evil official, but just after he took two steps, the two guards suddenly stabbed at Lu Jingzhi with spears in their hands.
He was so frightened that he quickly stepped back and was avoided being stabbed by the spear.
"Hmph, even if you are not allowed to enter, I will definitely go in." As soon as Yan An finished speaking, he stretched out his right hand, and a ball of red flame shot up into the sky, quickly condensing into two lifelike little phoenixes in the air.
They spread their wings and flew high, rushing towards the two guards with a fiery breath and fierce momentum.
The next moment, the guards' bodies suddenly caught fire, but they did not struggle at all. They stood upright at the door. Finally, within a few seconds, they were burned to ashes along with their armor.
Suddenly, dozens of guards in identical armor appeared out of nowhere and rushed over with spears in hand.
Lu Jingzhi took a step forward, raised his right hand to the level of his waist, and a blue electric arc condensed in the palm of his hand. Then he exerted force fiercely and suddenly struck out a blue palm print.
A crackling sound of electricity was heard in their bodies, and then it exploded, and the guards disappeared again.
Before the two could be happy, the guards appeared out of nowhere again, and their number was twice as many as before.
Yan An raised her eyebrows and looked impatient, "It's never going to end, is it?" After saying that, she suddenly stepped on empty air, fell forward, and opened her cherry lips.
Immediately afterwards, a fiery red flame burst out of her mouth, like a blazing light wave, sweeping towards the group of guards and the gloomy and strange yamen at an astonishing speed.
This flame carried powerful energy fluctuations, as if burning with endless anger and power.
Wherever it passed, the air was distorted by the heat.
With a loud "boom", the guards and even the Gui Yamen were all engulfed in flames.
Lu Jingzhi retreated to a distance, looking at the destruction of the Gui Yamen, and he didn't know who had answered the questions in his heart.
Yan An dropped from the sky and stood beside him. "Let's ask the others."
"Um."
As the two turned to leave, an old voice sounded behind them, "You two, I'm afraid there's something wrong with destroying my Gui Yamen?"
