The mountain spirit took action and killed the evil ghost with one strike.
Baimei and the little fox were both surprised.
The next moment, a group of ghosts appeared before their eyes.
Leading the group was a female ghost in a wedding dress, followed by a group of little ghosts with mutilated limbs.
Before Baimei could react, the paper ghosts in the donkey cart became excited.
"I saw Tiedan!"
“And Sister Cui Xi!!”
Obviously both sides are familiar with the ghost.
Bai Mei was surprised. He had the ability to see ghosts, so he could see the true face of ghosts. After seeing the ghost girl in wedding dress, his expression changed again:
"You are the king... the king..."
The word "Princess" just couldn't come out of my mouth.
The female ghost in the wedding dress was Yun Qingwu. After getting Qing Wu's instructions, she brought the little ghosts in the ghost mirror to Henglu Mountain.
Yun Qingwu forced a smile on his spooky face: "I am not that lord."
Seeing this, Baimei knew what was going on.
The real Yun Qingwu had died and turned into a ghost, and the mysterious princess he met before was clearly a resurrected ghost! !
Baimei's heart was filled with alarm bells, even more shocked and suspicious than when he saw the ghosts. What he couldn't understand was that this group of ghosts could appear here, obviously they were protected by the mountain spirits.
Could it be that the mountain spirit has also turned against us?
Yun Qingwu had no idea of Baimei's complicated thoughts. She just followed orders and came to pick someone up.
"The master is waiting for you at the mountain temple. Hurry up and go up the mountain."
Upon hearing this, Baimei could only smile bitterly.
He knew that he could not escape the clutches of the princess, but... this was too fast!
Baimei felt that the road ahead was unpredictable. He had just escaped from the wolf's den and fell into the tiger's mouth. He was afraid that his plan had been seen through by the other party long ago.
This is just waiting for him.
Baimei took the little fox and the paper ghosts up the mountain with a nervous mood. The little ghosts didn't have any complicated thoughts. Instead, they came up to their companions chatteringly after seeing them.
Along the way, Baimei also heard some mysteries, and the more he listened, the more shocked he became.
"Are they the little ghosts that were used to feed the ghost mirror? Did the princess let them out?"
Yun Qingwu nodded, "It was that adult who saved us."
Baimei became more and more suspicious. When he actually set foot on the mountain road, the spiritual energy blowing in the night wind made him shudder all over.
The little fox cackled excitedly and ran wildly along the mountain road.
"Such a strong spiritual energy, such a rich vitality~ Isn't this Infant-Eating Mountain occupied by mandrills and filled with only foul air and poisonous miasma?"
Baimei swallowed his saliva and asked hurriedly, "Is this really the Infant-Eating Mountain? Where are the mandrills? This place is full of vitality and spiritual charm. Is it the work of the princess?"
"My Lady Princess, please find His Royal Highness Prince Yan to confer the title of the mountain spirit and give it the name Henglu. From now on, this mountain will be called Henglu Mountain."
Baimei was shocked and felt sad in his heart.
My expression seemed to be both crying and laughing, and I felt like looking back I was the one who was the idiot.
The princess's origins are mysterious, and she is most likely not a human.
But... it is very likely that it has nothing to do with Qu Huang. Apart from anything else, the Henglu Mountain is filled with clear air at the moment, and evil things try to avoid it.
If he was really a member of Qu Huang's gang, he would never do such a thankless task.
When we arrived at the mountain temple, we could see flames from afar.
Yun Qingwu and the ghost mirror ghosts did not come closer, and the paper ghosts also stayed in the shadows and did not dare to move forward.
Baimei took a deep breath, and strode over with the excited little fox in his arms.
As soon as he showed up, all the black-armored guards outside the dilapidated temple looked over at him.
Baimei forced himself to smile kindly.
When he saw that it was him, he was surprised and muttered, "After all this time, it's you, the old rabbit, who's waiting for you."
"The prince and princess are waiting for you in the temple."
Baimei nodded and bowed, then followed him into the Shanling Temple.
The Shanling Temple still looked as dilapidated as before, but there was no weeds or dust inside, and it was kept very clean.
There was a fire in the main hall, and a roasted chicken was sizzling with oil. The man turned the chicken over from time to time.
"How long will it take... I think it's time to eat." The woman sat next to him with her chin in her hands, her eyes shining green.
Qing Wu raised her eyes and looked at the old man and the fox who came in, "Oh, they are here."
thump.
The old man and the fox slid to their knees.
"Greetings, my Lord. Greetings, my Princess!"
"Thank you, Princess, for saving my life..."
Qing Wu sneered, "Okay, get up."
The old man and the fox quickly stood up. Baimei was embarrassed for a moment, took a deep breath, looked at Qingwu, and bowed:
"I was a mean person. I misunderstood the princess and lied to her before. Please forgive me, princess."
"Deception?" The man's voice expressed no emotion.
Bai Mei's eyes met Xiao Chenyan's, and he felt nervous. He thought that His Royal Highness Prince Yan was also an insider, so he didn't dare to hide it anymore and said with a wry smile:
"At first, I thought that the princess and Qu Huang were related, so I tried to be clever."
This was not the first time that Xiao Chenyan had heard of the name Qu Huang. He looked at Qing Wu thoughtfully.
Qing Wu sneered: "How can a stinky bug like Qu Huang be associated with me, old charlatan, are you insulting me?"
Bai Meilian said he dared not, and smiled bitterly: "Qu Huang is colluding with the dignitaries in the capital. I am really afraid of the snake shadow. If I had known about the Henglu Mountain incident earlier, I would not have misunderstood the princess."
"Then is it my fault that I didn't explain it to you clearly?"
Baimei and Little Fox shook their heads quickly, and the latter said crisply: "I said yesterday that the beautiful princess must be a good person. It's all because of Chuangbaba. His heart is too dirty~"
Baimei felt embarrassed and wanted to hit the little fox, but he didn't have the confidence.
It's just that he has a dirty heart, and now he gets slapped in the face.
"Your heart is still not dirty enough, and your brain is even worse." Qing Wu looked at Bai Mei with a half-smile: "You brought the little fox to cheat and make money just to pay the toll for those little ghosts?"
"I'm curious, who in the underworld would dare to take on your business?"
Bai Mei raised his head in shock and met the woman's deep black pupils. He felt that all his thoughts were exposed in front of her.
Bai Mei swallowed his saliva and smiled bitterly: "I really can't hide anything from you, Princess."
He took a deep breath and said truthfully, "Money makes the world go round. The Yin-Yang Road is vast and boundless. Although Qu Huang has occupied this section of the Yin-Yang Road, as long as there is enough money, he can always find another way to send these little ghosts to hell."
He glanced at Qing Wu and continued, "The princess has an extraordinary background. I think she has heard of the Night Wandering God."
Qing Wu's mouth twitched.
Judge's Pen: "...It's so funny, the flood has washed away the Dragon King Temple again? It's fine to do the night tour, but why do you do this private work?"
Qing Wu licked her lips and said, "Gather some silver and bribe Ye You to open a small path for you to ferry the dead souls? Very good, very interesting, what a talent."
For some reason, the more Baimei listened, the more he felt something was wrong.
Qing Wu’s next words made him tremble even more.
"With your ability, you can't open the Yin-Yang Road, so you hurriedly brought the little ghosts to the Mountain Spirit Temple."
"Old charlatan, you want to use yourself as a sacrifice to help the mountain spirit regain its spiritual power and ask it to help you clear the way?"
"The mountain spirits cleared the way, and the night wanderers ferry souls across. Haha, you are willing to risk everything for these little ghosts."
The little fox only realized Baimei's plan at this moment. His eyes widened and tears flowed: "Wrinkled..."
"Hey... don't cry." Baimei was a little embarrassed and moved the little fox's head, "I owed this to those kids."
"No! It's not you, wrinkled one, who's causing trouble. It's that Qu Huang, and those bad guys in the capital!"
The little fox was very excited.
Everyone else in the temple was confused.
Xiao Chenyan guessed something and asked, "Are you from Chuyun Temple?"
The others looked at Baimei in astonishment.
Baimei sighed and nodded in acknowledgment: "Old Taoist Baimei is the elder of Chuyun Temple, and the current abbot is my nephew."
His wrinkled face was filled with guilt and hatred.
Baimei cultivates the way of the common people and walks the path of being involved in the world, so he does not stay in the temple for many years.
Not long ago, he returned to the Izumo Monastery. As soon as he got back, he found that the temple was in a mess. The current abbot was in cahoots with the ghost messenger Qu Huang and was killing people!
"I rescued those little ghosts from the Chuyun Temple. However, my cultivation was not good enough. Although I managed to save my life, my cultivation was almost completely destroyed."
Baimei smiled bitterly and pointed at his eyes: "Only these two yin-yang eyes are of some use."
Qing Wu: "Is it useful?"
Baimei: “…” It hurts.
His eyes were no different from being blind in front of the princess, he couldn't see anything.
"Have you ever thought that they are just a few little ghosts? Is it necessary for Naqu Huang to go to such great lengths to send out ghost officials and ghost minions to hunt you down?"
"You are already a useless person. It is very difficult for you to keep the souls of these little ghosts alive. Qu Huang can just wait for the souls of these little ghosts to dissipate on their own. Why bother with this?"
Bai Mei was stunned. He had been busy all this time and hadn't really thought about it carefully.
Qing Wu shook her head, not wanting to bother explaining to him, "Let the group of little devils you rescued come in."
Baimei didn't dare to delay and hurried out to catch the ghost.
A few breaths later, a group of paper ghosts came clumsily out of the woods.
There were two spots of beauty on that pale little face, and the painted black eyes were rolling around curiously, and even worse, the neck was twisted half a circle.
It was not the first time that the black-armored guards had to fight with ghosts. Seeing this scene, the masters couldn't help but feel their scalps tingling.
The more I feel... my princess is a bitch!
The paper ghosts, which were originally lively and energetic, immediately became as obedient as quails as soon as they entered the temple. The pressure emanating from Qing Wu made them tremble in fear.
In just a moment, Qing Wu discovered the clue.
She hooked her finger, and a little ghost floated out of the paper and came straight to her.
He was a little boy about eight years old. He must have been from a wealthy family when he was alive. He was white and chubby like a piglet.
Qing Wu's fingertips fell on the fat boy's soul and pinched something. She stared at her fingertips with a dark look in her eyes.
"Princess, what does Hu Zi have on him?" Bai Mei was curious.
He couldn't see, but within his sight, there was clearly some brown stuff on his fingertips, like soil.
Xiao Chenyan also saw the dirt on her fingertips.
For some reason, the mud gave him an extremely uncomfortable feeling.
The judge's pen's voice was even sharper: "How could it be this thing——"
