After Feng Dahai left, the filthy things became restless again and surged towards the hall.
My expression changed drastically. There were at least several hundred people in this dark mass, and they were still pouring in from the direction of the entrance.
"Village chief, you're so brave, why don't you just take care of me with one axe?" I covered my forehead with one hand, while the other hand was already in my bag, holding a few extermination talismans.
Although this group of filthy things is numerous, none of them are powerful; at most, they are just a bunch of wronged souls.
However, the sheer number of them was overwhelming. My number of extermination talismans was limited, and using them to deal with these filthy creatures would be like a drop in the ocean.
But if I ignore them, they will overwhelm me instantly.
Just as I was wondering what to do, the wooden door to the hall was kicked open, and dozens of filthy things rushed in.
I took out the annihilation talisman and was about to attack them when a strange thing happened.
The filth didn't rush towards me; instead, it charged at the green candle like a madman.
What's even stranger is that as soon as those filthy things get within a certain range of the candle, they instantly disappear under the light of the flame.
Apart from an increase in yin energy, nothing else remains.
I stood there, completely stunned. Were they looking for someone else?
No, they were looking for me. Maybe it's because I was wearing this funeral shroud, or maybe they were attracted by the candle as they rushed in.
In any case, this is a good thing. Otherwise, how long would it take me to kill all these filthy creatures?
The filth continued to rush towards the candle, relentlessly, while I stood quietly to the side, watching silently.
Grandpa said that if the candle goes out, something strange and ominous will happen. I originally thought that the candle was just a warning, but I didn't expect it could be used in this way.
I went to the window and looked outside. Although the filth was still pouring in, its density was gradually decreasing. At this rate, I estimated that in another half hour, all the filth would be eliminated.
"Knock knock!"
Just then, two loud bangs came from outside, and the entire hall shook.
My expression changed. Hearing the commotion, I knew something must have happened outside, and I guessed it must be related to my fifth grandfather and the others. But I couldn't go out now, and even if I did, I probably wouldn't be able to help. So now I could only stay in the hall and worry anxiously.
Rumble!
The noise continued, and even the filth surging into the hall paused for a moment, looking out in alarm. However, their hesitation was brief, and they couldn't resist the temptation of the green candles, continuing to rush towards them.
I could only stand by and watch helplessly. It was clearly my own business, but I felt like I couldn't help at all. My fifth grandfather and the others were so powerful, but when they talked about that thing outside, they all looked solemn, even like they were ready to die. You can imagine how powerful that thing outside was.
Time slowly passed as I endured my torment, and half an hour went by in the blink of an eye. Meanwhile, the vibrations and noises outside became more and more frequent. The only consolation was that the number of dirty things that had broken in had decreased, with only a handful remaining. I believed that it wouldn't be long before these ordinary dirty things would be completely eliminated by the green candles.
Two or three more minutes passed, and no more dirt entered the hall. I glanced towards the courtyard gate, and the courtyard was empty; I didn't see a single piece of dirt.
In that short half hour, even though I tried to count carefully, I had a rough idea of how many thousands of filth were eliminated by the green candles.
If I were to kill all these filthy creatures, I doubt I could manage even a hundred.
I walked over and closed the door, letting out a long sigh of relief. I was finally over this ordinary hurdle of dirt, but I didn't know what awaited me next.
These filthy things came quickly and went quickly. If it weren't for the lingering yin energy in the hall, I wouldn't even believe that thousands of filthy things had just flooded into this small hall.
Beep beep beep!
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
I was taken aback when I heard this. Could it be that my fifth grandfather has returned?
"Is that Fifth Grandfather?" I walked over and was about to open the door when suddenly the door was pushed open from the outside.
When I saw who was standing outside the door, I was filled with disbelief and exclaimed, "How could it be you?"
