Hua Xiangyun said with certainty, "Second Brother, we've run into a maze."
"Ghost...ghost wall?" Hua Zhian felt his legs go weak. "Little sister, this is no joke."
There are no demons or monsters in this world; we probably just went down the wrong path.
He himself wasn't sure about what he was saying, after all, he had walked this mountain road countless times and had never encountered such a situation before.
Hua Xiangyun, "Why don't you try again?"
Hua Zhian refused to believe it and said, "Let's give it a try."
He dragged Hua Xiangyun forward slowly. This time he was smarter. He touched the object in front of him before each step, sometimes a tree, sometimes a blade of grass.
When he reached the downhill slope, he was extra careful, touching objects in front of him before moving his feet.
When they reached the last spot, he had just stretched out his hand and hadn't even touched the small tree in front of him when he was suddenly moved to a different position.
"..."
Hua Zhian was sweating profusely, and his voice trembled, "Little sister, what should we do now?"
We didn't do anything! We just smoked up the rabbit hutch; we really didn't mean to disturb them.
As he spoke, he came to the ancient tomb, put his hands together, and prayed continuously, "Senior, I truly don't blame those who are ignorant."
We really didn't mean to disturb your peace. How about this? Please let us out, and I will definitely prepare offerings and incense to worship you later.
Since you're not responding to me, then it's settled. I'll go one more time, and then you'll let us down the mountain, okay?
After Hua Zhian finished speaking, he pulled Hua Xiangyun, but they ended up back at the same spot.
After walking back and forth several times, I realized that I had encountered the legendary "ghost wall".
Moreover, the originally ordinary grave mound was filled with a strong sense of yin energy.
Hua Xiangyun took out two calming talismans she had drawn herself from her Qiankun bag and patted one on her chest and Hua Zhian's chest.
When Hua Zhian saw the yellow talisman, although he didn't understand what the incantations on it were for, having this thing at least put his mind at ease.
"Little sister, is this thing useful?" He didn't even think to ask where it came from.
This is the only lifeline the brother and sister can grasp right now; hopefully, it will be of some use.
Hua Xiangyun said, "It's useful." At least it will prevent them from being affected by this yin energy and making a fool of themselves.
Soon, the yin energy surrounded them. Hua Xiangyun didn't rush to disperse it, but wanted to see what the other party's intentions were.
Having suppressed the Nine Lotus Cauldron within his spiritual platform, this guy was already on the verge of bursting out.
“Master, this thing can be converted into spiritual energy for me, which is much faster than your usual cultivation.”
Hua Xiangyun suppressed it with her mind, "Shut up, do you think this shortcut is so easy to take?"
The path of cultivation is inherently difficult; a single misstep could cause her to fail completely.
"But this guy is very arrogant; he just tried to make his owner a laughingstock."
“You can see it yourself,” Hua Xiangyun was thinking about how to break the deadlock, mainly because she was still too poor at the moment. “I can feel the malice, do you need to tell me?”
“Little sister, I’ve heard people say before that a boy’s urine can cure this,” Hua Zhian said excitedly. “Wait a moment, turn your back, and I’ll take care of it.”
Hua Xiangyun: "It's no use, this isn't your average ghost wall."
She had just used her spiritual eyes to look at it, and it should be an ancient tomb that is thousands of years old. She never expected that an old ghost would still be living here.
"Didn't they say these things only appear at night? It's broad daylight now..." Hua Zhian asked in a low voice.
Hua Xiangyun looked up at the gloomy sky. "Although nighttime is advantageous for them, this kind of weather won't have much of an impact on them."
Fortunately, it was broad daylight; if it had been night, with her current cultivation level, she really wouldn't have been able to get out.
He took out the dagger Lang Tao, which he had thrown into the Nine Lotus Cauldron space earlier. Although its killing energy had been absorbed, it was still a divine weapon.
Hua Xiangyun pulled out another talisman and stuck it directly on the dagger. Hua Zhian was stunned when he saw the dagger flash a yellow light. When did his little sister have such a skill?
Looking down at the talisman pasted on my chest, I felt much more at ease.
He didn't ask any more questions and stood quietly behind Hua Xiangyun.
Suddenly, Xiangyun raised her dagger and slashed down in one of the directions. The talisman that was originally attached to the dagger flew into the air and stopped above the ancient tomb.
As a gust of wind blew in, Hua Zhian seemed to hear a piercing wail.
Hua Xiangyun did not stop there. She continued to make hand gestures and chant Taoist mantras.
Hua Zhian felt the wind getting stronger and stronger, and he had to squat down and hold onto the tree branch next to him to keep his balance.
Meanwhile, the younger sister, who had been protected behind them, stood firmly in front.
Despite his worries, Hua Zhian dared not interrupt. He gritted his teeth and kept himself from making a sound. Since he couldn't help, he couldn't cause trouble for his little sister.
Hua Xiangyun continued performing incantations, even throwing out several talismans along the way, which slowed the wind until it disappeared completely.
When everything calmed down, Hua Xiangyun was pale-faced. "Second brother, let's go."
Hua Zhian didn't dare ask anything and quickly stood up to help Hua Xiangyun up, "Are you alright?"
Hua Xiangyun: "Let's talk about it after we get down the mountain."
Hua Zhian immediately helped her walk forward, and Hua Xiangyun reminded her helplessly, "Take all our things with you." Those were the spoils of the two of them, and it would be a great pity to lose them.
Hua Zhian quickly picked up the items, tucked them under his arm, and supported Hua Xiangyun with one hand.
This time, Hua Zhian was overjoyed to find that he had passed through safely without returning to the starting point. He didn't dare to delay and rushed down the mountain in one breath before stopping to catch his breath.
Looking at the reservoir not far away, I felt like we had finally arrived at a safe place. "Little sister, how are you? Why don't we sit down and rest for a bit?"
Hua Xiangyun: "It's nothing, I was just a little exhausted, but I've recovered a bit now."
Hua Zhian breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that her complexion was indeed much better than before.
"Little sister, let's come to this mountain less often in the future." He used to be an atheist, but now he has more reverence for it.
"What just happened? We've never encountered this before when we went up the mountain."
Hua Zhian glanced at the mountain path behind him and said with a sneer, "Even if we really disturb them with the smoke, those rabbits still live in there. Instead of dealing with the rabbits, it comes to harm us. It's really unreasonable."
Hua Xiangyun had recovered some of her strength by this time. After circulating her spiritual energy once, her complexion regained a rosy hue. "That wasn't revenge against us, but rather because they needed something from us."
Hua Zhian felt he had heard a huge joke. "Little sister, are you sure you're not mistaken?"
After what just happened, do they still need our help?
It seems to me they want to make an enemy of us. If it weren't for your abilities, little sister, my brother and I might have been killed up there.
