Chapter 296 Ghost Ruins! (two in one)
In the main hall.
Yang Fang frowned, looked at the old man, suspicious.
Seeing that the old man's face became more and more ugly, he looked a little livid, and finally slapped the table hard, got up and left.
"Senior, maybe I can help."
Yang Fang suddenly spoke, and the voice came out.
In order to allow the opponent to make alchemy as soon as possible, he has no other way right now.
"you?"
The old man paused, turned around to look at Yang Fang, sneered, and said, "Even a Holy Spirit-level master has failed, what are you?"
"Holy Spirit-level masters are also strong and weak. I am also the Holy Spirit. Why don't you let me try?"
Yang Fang's tone was calm.
"Are you also the Holy Spirit?"
The old man's face was startled, and he immediately looked directly at Yang Fang, unbelievable.
Such a young Holy Spirit?
He quickly let out a cold snort, and said: "For this matter, the old man has invited five famous holy spirits one after another, but all of them have failed. Do you think you can do it?"
The holy spirits invited by him are all seasoned masters.
Everyone has been famous for many years.
But without exception, they all gave up in the end.
"If you don't let me try, how can you tell that I can't do it?"
Yang Fang smiled and looked at each other.
The old man snorted again, walked back, and said, "Alright, if you can really help me find my son, I can help you refine any pill you want, no, within half a year, the pill you need Medicine, I can help you practice."
He gritted his teeth hard and became cruel.
It can be seen that this matter is extremely important and related to his son.
"Oh? Senior, please explain in detail."
Yang Fang moved his eyes.
The old man sighed for a long time, his energy seemed to be weakened all of a sudden, he sat on the chair and said:
"It happened half a month ago. I have an only son named Liu Yun, who was spoiled by me since he was a child, so that when he grows up, he likes to be a knight-errant, travel around the world, and fight against injustice. I have carefully taught him several times. However, Nihe Nizi has a rebellious character and will not change after repeated admonitions. Half a month ago, he secretly left home and went away with a group of sworn brothers. After leaving, he never came back, only sent back a note..."
"Note? Is something wrong?"
Yang Fang asked.
"Yes, that note is a distress letter, written with his blood."
The old man looked sad and said: "The letter said that they accidentally fell into the ghost ruins. The thirteen sworn brothers suffered heavy casualties. At present, only eight of them are still alive. Let me send someone to rescue him as soon as possible. It is also difficult to see. After learning about this, I was in a state of confusion. In just half a month, I invited five Holy Spirit-level masters and fifteen super-level third-level experts to go to the ghost ruins for rescue, but..."
"Without exception, all of them failed. Even in the third stage of these super-grades, many people died, and the five holy spirit-level masters also quit one after another!"
"I see."
Yang Fang said.
No wonder the old man was like eating gunpowder when he met.
When such a big event happened at home, it would be strange not to rush.
"Ghost ruins? What is this place? Why haven't I heard of it?"
Yang opened his mouth.
"You shouldn't be from our Northern Territory, right?"
The old man looked at Yang Fang again with a complex expression.
Yang Fang raised his brows and said, "I am indeed from Outland."
"That's it."
The old man sighed, and said: "The ghost ruins are a strange place unique to the Qingtianyu. This area is not fixed in a certain place. Every time it appears for a period of time, it will disappear again, and when it appears next time, Will change to another place.
But no matter how you change it, it will always be in the Sky Domain, and every time it appears, the ghost ruins will automatically swallow everything around them, whether it is a settlement, a town, or a monster territory in the wild, it will be turned into it. a part of.
Once swallowed by the ghost ruins, the survivors will be assimilated into strange monsters if they do not come out after a certain period of time! "
Speaking of this, his face became extremely ugly, and he said: "So, think about it for yourself, are you willing to help me find the traitor?"
Yang Fang touched his chin immediately, thinking quickly.
There is such a place in Qingtianyu?
"This ghost ruin should have just appeared not long ago?"
"Yes, it suddenly appeared half a month ago. At that time, Nizi and the sworn brothers around him were settling down in a small settlement, but they were accidentally swallowed by ghosts. Every time the ghost ruins appeared, it took about 20 days. , now there are five days left, and it will disappear again, when that time comes, Nizi will never come back."
The old man gritted his teeth.
"Then how did he deliver this news before?"
Yang Fang asked.
"Beside Nizi, there is a ghost bird that I raised since childhood. I bought this thing at a huge price back then. It can travel between yin and yang and travel three thousand miles at night. It is the news from the ghost bird!"
The old man said.
"Okay, I can try."
Yang opened his mouth.
To be honest, he really didn't want to give up this opportunity of alchemy.
Once he succeeds, the other party can refine half a year's elixir for him for free. Where can I find such a good thing?
"By the way, where is that ghost ruin now? Has your son left any other news?"
Yang Fang asked.
"The ghost ruins are now in [Xuanyi Settlement] to the west of Qingtianyu. It is a very small settlement with a permanent population of only a few thousand people. The last time Nizi sent a letter said that he was in the temple."
The old man said quickly.
"Is he in the temple?"
Yang Fang repeats.
It sounds like they are hiding in an ancient temple somewhere in the ghost ruins?
"Yes, there is another piece of news. There are often different types of evil spirits in the ghost ruins. They are extremely weird and hard to guard against. You should be more careful."
The old man Liu Xianquan spoke hastily.
Now I can only pin my hope on Yang Fang.
Because time is running out, he has no extra time to invite the next Holy Spirit-level master. If he delays any longer, his son will undoubtedly die.
.
.
.
Running for half a day, the speed is fast.
The strong wind on both sides whined.
The season is approaching midwinter again, and the places encountered are almost all piled up with yellow leaves.
Yang Fang exerted his full speed, and finally arrived at the [Xuanyi settlement] that Liu Xianquan mentioned before the sun went down.
At the moment.
Look around.
I saw the front, dim light, shadowy, shrouded in a layer of faint black mist, under the mist are continuous buildings, densely packed, row upon row, but no one can be seen.
It's like a weird no man's land.
Listen with your ears, but you can't hear any sounds inside.
Quiet and silent!
It's as if that area is cut off from the rest of the world.
"In the temple."
Yang Fang talked to himself, stepped forward, and walked forward.
Next, just search for various temples inside.
Of course, he also needs to keep a backup in advance so that he can evacuate at any time.
If there was nothing he could do, he wouldn't involve himself in it.
As he approached that strange area step by step, Yang Fang gradually sensed an unusual aura, and an unspeakable sense of ominousness gradually surfaced in his heart.
It seems that once you walk through it, you will encounter something extremely terrible.
Yang Fang remained motionless, staring carefully at the area shrouded in black mist. After a while, he still took a step and walked over.
In an instant, there was a feeling of coldness in the limbs and bones.
It's like passing through a long ice cave.
In a blink of an eye!
His body appeared inside the settlement, his eyes looked around, and at the same time, the true energy in his body was running, gradually dispelling the cold and recovering the temperature.
From the inside, the entire settlement seems to have nothing special except that there are no people.
He walked forward, his footsteps restrained, and he carefully looked at everything around him.
On the street, you can still see many stalls.
There are vendors selling vegetables, books, paintings, and snacks...
Neatly placed.
No clutter.
Even the food on the food stand seems to be fresh.
It's as if all the people here disappeared in the blink of an eye, there is an indescribable weirdness.
Yang Fang observed silently.
Suddenly!
He had an induction and turned back directly.
I saw a figure standing quietly in front of an inn not far from him, looking in his direction.
Under the afterglow of the setting sun, it is blurry and difficult to distinguish.
Yang Fang's eyes turned cold, and with a quick brush, his body quickly approached.
But just as he rushed out not far away, he suddenly stopped again.
The figure disappeared again, as if it was his hallucination.
This made him frown tightly.
"Evil spirits?"
Yang Fang thought about it, looked around again for a while, turned around, and continued walking.
Unknowingly, the sun has completely set.
The settlement fell into unspeakable darkness.
Only sporadic moonlight shines down.
While walking, suddenly, Yang Xin felt a chill, and felt something was wrong again.
on the ground.
His shadow was dragged out by the moonlight.
However, near his shadow, seven or eight long shadows appeared again.
As if someone was walking behind him?
He turned his head suddenly, his eyes were cold.
But found that behind him was empty, nothing at all.
Out of the corner of his eye, he looked down at his feet again.
I saw seven or eight long shadows under my feet also disappeared at some point.
"Playing tricks."
Yang Fang said coldly, and continued to turn and walk.
Another period of time passed.
Yang Fang did not continue to encounter abnormalities.
However, when he walked past a corner of the street, he frowned and noticed the scene ahead.
Anyone?
other people?
I saw the dead and silent street in front of me. At this moment, there were four figures fleeing in terror, screaming in panic, with shawls scattered, and red eyes, as if they had encountered something extremely terrifying.
The four of them are not young.
Cultivation is also in the third level of Super Grade.
"Help!"
"Brother, help me!"
The four masters of the third level of Chaopin burst into tears, disregarding the phenomenon, as if they were collapsing.
Fleeing towards Yang Fang regardless of everything.
Behind them, there are three or four extremely weird black shadows chasing after them at a fast speed. They are spooky, blurred and distorted. From time to time, there are bursts of sharp laughter from inside, full of rich sarcasm.
It's like playing cat and mouse.
"It really is an evil spirit!"
Yang Fang talked to himself.
Those strange black shadows obviously noticed Yang Fang not far away, and let out a weird laugh of'hee hee', one of the black shadows flashed and rushed directly towards Yang Fang.
In the blur, there seemed to be a continuous black shadow, wrapped in a gloomy and cold meaning, directly covering Yang Fang's body.
For a split second, neither the sky nor the earth nor the moonlight can be seen.
The whole world seemed to turn black.
A strong and cold feeling quickly poured into Yang Fang's pores, as if to freeze his blood, freeze his body, and completely destroy him from the outside to the inside.
But suddenly!
Boom!
Lightning of thunder emerges, the power of heaven pervades, with masculinity that destroys all evil, and instantly covers darkness.
ah!
The weird black shadow covering it instantly let out a scream and was shrouded in thunder and lightning. It suddenly crackled, evaporated instantly, turned into a light mist, and completely dissipated.
The terrifying scene made the other black shadows stunned, their bodies stopped instantly, and they all looked towards Yang Fang.
When they sensed the faint heavenly power on Yang Fang's body, their aura rolled, and thick gloom and resentment appeared in their eyes. They stared at Yang Fang, and suddenly screamed strangely, turned and fled.
Want to leave?
Yang Fang frowned, and his body flew past in an instant.
The long sword at the waist was unsheathed, covered by lightning, and swept directly towards their bodies.
Heiyun swordsmanship!
Puff puff!
ah!
Several strange black shadows were quickly defeated under Yang Fang's thunder and lightning, screamed pitifully, turned into black mist, and disappeared.
The four fleeing super-grade third level, hurriedly turned back to watch.
After seeing Yang Fang kill these weird black shadows with a few moves, he was surprised and happy, as if seeing great hope, tears burst into tears, and quickly ran towards Yang Fang.
"Help, senior, help!"
"Please save us, woo woo woo, I don't want to die!"
The four super-ranks came up to the third level and knelt, terrified, tears streaming down their faces, and hugged Yang Da's thigh directly.
Yang Fang's face was indifferent, and his body shook, shaking several people out.
"Don't come any closer!"
The indifferent voice came out.
The four nodded quickly, with tears and sweat all over their faces, panicked.
"You also lived here before?"
Yang Fang asked.
"No, we...we came in on our own initiative."
A bald old man was full of fear, and suddenly slapped himself hard, saying: "It's all because of my lard. I heard people say that you can get ghost fruits here, so I joined the three of them and took the initiative to break in, but it didn't work." Wanting to encounter all kinds of weird things, I almost died here."
"Ghost fruit?"
Yang Fang raised his eyebrows.
"Yes, this is a mysterious fruit that can assist in soul cultivation. It is said that it can only be found in the ghost ruins, but we found nothing."
The four of them encountered all sorts of weird things here, so their minds almost collapsed, which is why what happened just now happened.
"How long have you been in, is anyone else coming in besides you?"
Yang Fang asked.
"It's been more than ten days since I came in, and there are many other people, but they all got separated later, and we don't know what happened to them now."
The bald old man said in panic.
"Have you encountered any temples here?"
Yang Fang asked.
"Temples? There is the Songzi Niangniang Temple, which is in the east of the settlement."
The bald old man spoke quickly.
Yang Fang nodded lightly and said, "Let's go."
"Senior, help, we are completely lost, I implore senior to show us the way!"
The old man hurriedly said in fear.
Yang Fang raised his long sword, pointed to the right, and said, "Go in that direction, don't turn."
"Okay, thank you senior!"
"Thank you senior for saving your life!"
The four of them narrowly escaped death and hurriedly kowtowed.
Then got up again and ran towards there.
Yang Fang couldn't help shaking his head slightly, turned around, and looked towards the temple.
···
Desolate temple, pitch black.
Like a giant beast in the night, it opens its mouth wide, trying to devour people.
The scope of the temple is not small, the courtyard is extremely dilapidated, covered with cobwebs and weeds, it seems that it has not been cleaned for many years.
But the most central hall is still filled with the smell of incense.
At the moment.
Liu Yun, the son of Liu Xianquan, had a pale face, holding the long sword tightly in his right hand, and firmly holding the hand of his companion with his left hand, full of tension, hiding in the hall.
The thirteen sworn brothers imitated the ancient knights and traveled far away with their swords in search of opportunities, but they never expected to encounter ghosts spreading and swallowing them inside.
Now they have been wandering here for more than ten days, and only five of them are left among the thirteen sworn brothers who died. Every day is thrilling and frightening.
"Don't be nervous, don't be nervous, the experts invited by my father will arrive soon, and they will definitely rescue us."
Liu Yun grabbed his companion tightly and kept comforting him.
"Not nervous, none of us are nervous."
Several of his companions trembled and forced a smile.
In such a day, basically relying on daily cheer to survive.
Otherwise, it would have collapsed.
"Brother Liu, you...look at the delivery lady, is she smiling at us?"
A young girl was full of fear, and looked towards the sculpture of the Empress Sending Children in the hall.
The others were shocked and looked cautiously.
I saw the mysterious statue with benevolent eyebrows and kind eyes, the color of which was painted red. At the moment, the corner of the mouth was smiling, and a pair of white eyes looked towards them quietly, with a hint of strangeness.
Just like living things.
Several people shuddered suddenly.
"No, you didn't smile at me, you read it wrong, don't read it."
Liu Yun spoke hastily.
"Yeah, didn't smile, didn't see anything."
The person next to him also shook his head quickly.
But thinking this way, they still couldn't help but feel fear in their hearts. They just felt as if an invisible line of sight fell on them, making the hairs on their bodies stand up and their skin tingling.
"Forget it, why don't we stay here and change the room."
Liu Yun spoke quickly and got up quickly.
"Yes, it's better not to stay, it's better to leave quickly."
Several other people spoke quickly, their calves shivering.
They quickly fled from the main hall.
Until they left, that invisible line of sight still seemed to linger on them.
Liu Yun and the others were afraid that they would be slow to escape, so they hurriedly fled to another room.
It wasn't until they entered the room and closed the door completely that they breathed a sigh of relief again.
"Brother Liu, do you think we can survive?"
The girl just said pessimistically.
"Don't think too much, it's definitely possible, the reinforcements my father is looking for will arrive soon, and our own strength is not low, we will definitely be able to survive."
Liu Yun said hastily.
"By the way, do you feel that your shoulders are sore? Why do I feel that my body is getting more and more tired, as if I am carrying something?"
Suddenly, a companion spoke.
"Shoulder?"
Liu Yun moved his shoulders carefully, and quickly said: "Don't think about it, there will be nothing wrong, if something happens, we can all see it."
"Yes, it should be because we were too tired before."
The other companions also comforted.
They immediately felt relieved.
Next, they did not dare to continue talking, but hid quietly, waiting for dawn.
But soon!
"Brother Liu, do you...do you feel that we are missing another person!"
Suddenly, the woman's voice trembled.
Liu Yun and the companions around him changed their expressions, and quickly looked towards him.
Looking at it, I was instantly out of my wits.
"Where's Xu Qing?"
"Why did Xu Qing disappear? He was still there just now?"
"Xu Qing..."
The voices of several people were terrified, but they didn't dare to make a big noise.
Horrific despair began to attack their hearts again, making their hearts really close to collapse.
While they were holding hands, such a big living person suddenly disappeared.
"This ruined temple can't stay anymore, go, go!"
Liu Yun's voice was terrified, and he spoke hastily.
Several other people were also terrified, got up one after another, and rushed towards the door.
But as they ran through the empty yard, something that made them even more frightened soon happened. More than ten slender shadows appeared on the ground, running along with them.
It was as if there were invisible figures beside them.
During the period, bursts of 'hee hee hee' eerie laughter entered their minds.
The nerves in the minds of several people finally collapsed completely, tears emerged, and they were terrified.
"Help!"
They were hysterical.
Boom!
Suddenly, the wall of the front yard exploded, and gravel flew.
A strange black shadow seemed to be bombarded from the front yard. It smashed the wall and slammed not far from them. With a scream and a bang, it dissipated directly.
Several people hurriedly looked up in horror.
I can only see the back of the big hole in the wall.
A tall and burly figure in a green shirt, with loose black hair, holding a long sword, with cold eyes, looking here.
It seems that he was the one who killed that shadow!
"Which of you is Liu Yun? Also, what are you carrying?"
Yang Fang frowned directly.
"I, I am Liu Yun!"
Liu Yun, who was collapsing, burst into tears and shouted hastily.
"What are you doing with a dead man on your shoulders?"
Yang Fang's tone was indifferent.
Liu Yun was frightened out of his wits.
Backed a dead man?
He quickly looked over his shoulder, but couldn't see anything.
The other people were all terrified, and quickly grabbed at their shoulders.
at this time!
The ten or so slender shadows in the yard suddenly screamed, and rushed towards Yang Fang in unison, eerie and eerie, extremely fast.
Instantly filled with strong and unknown.
The whole yard was pitch black.
"roll!"
Boom!
The sound of thunder came out, icy cold and deafening, containing panic and heavenly power.
ah!
More than a dozen black shadows screamed at the same time, hugged their heads tightly, hit the ground, smoked from their bodies, and began to collapse quickly.
Even with Liu Yun and the other four, their minds roared and buzzed, as if their souls had left their bodies in an instant.
And when they regained consciousness again, each of them was even more frightened and almost jumped up.
On their shoulders, there was a strange figure with a pale face and sinister eyes, but these strange figures seemed to have been severely injured, screaming piercingly, holding their heads in their hands, and their bodies sneered , quickly dissipates.
In a blink of an eye, all of them were lost.
Liu Yun and the others were terrified, and ran towards Yang Fang desperately.
"Help, senior!"
They cried out in terror.
Flutter!
Yang Fang swept his long sword, and the woman's head flew out on the spot just now, eyes widened, full of shock, flying in the air.
"Seventh Sister!"
Liu Yun and the others yelled in horror.
But soon they showed fear, and saw that the flying woman's head was rapidly turning into black mist, like an illusion, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
Even the corpse on the ground was atomized in an instant.
"Your father asked me to save you, let's go."
Yang Fang's tone was cold, he glanced at the other two, turned and walked outside.
Liu Yun and the other three were shivering, feeling dazed, cold from head to toe.
Their seventh sister died long ago?
Evil spirits have been disguising all this time?
Looking at Yang Fang's tall and straight body, several people were terrified and quickly followed behind.
"Senior... When did my seventh sister die?"
Liu Yun spoke in fear.
"have no idea."
Yang Fang responded and continued to move forward.
This weird space, even he, felt ominous.
Right now, it is better to leave as soon as possible.
Anyway, Liu Yun has already been found. Fortunately, this kid is lucky.
Otherwise, I would have made my trip in vain.
The three of them trembled and followed Yang Fang without stopping, not daring to say anything more.
but!
When walking out of several streets in a row and walking out of an alley.
Suddenly, Yang Fang's body stopped again, his brows moved slightly, and he looked forward.
Liu Yun and the others quickly stopped, looked around, and widened their eyes.
I saw them in front of them.
Human figures emerged, numerous in number.
A large number of sergeants suddenly appeared, holding up the torches, densely appearing here, as if they were searching for something, besides the sergeants, there was also a bright yellow Fire Phoenix banner, which was bright and beautiful in the firelight.
"The people of the imperial court..."
Liu Yun said in amazement: "This is the flag of Princess Mingyu!"
"The imperial court."
Yang Fang is thoughtful.
Sure enough, such a place will not lack the presence of the imperial court.
Suddenly, a thin old man rushed towards them quickly, and soon appeared in front of Yang Fang and the others, cupped his hands and said: "Mingyu County Master has ordered that all warriors who come in should temporarily stop following the order. , to gather, Your Excellency, please go over there."
Yang Fang shook his head lightly, and said, "Sorry, I'm on my way, so I can't stay for long!"
"You... this is an order from Princess Mingyu!"
The old man said quickly.
Yang Fang ignored it, glanced at Liu Yunsan next to him, and said calmly, "Are you going?"
He stepped forward and walked forward.
San Xiao's face was dull, and he reacted quickly, and quickly followed.
How dare this mysterious expert ignore Princess Mingyu?
The old man's face was frightened and angry, his palms trembled, and he said: "How dare you disobey the imperial court's order?"
"Don't dare to violate it, but I have other important matters, let's wait another day."
Yang Fang responded.
"You stay for me!"
The old man roared angrily, rushed over with a whimper, and grabbed the back of Yang Fang's neck with his palm.
Just his palm just scratched out.
Yang Fang's long sword turned around like lightning, and pierced the old man's palm with perfect precision.
It was as if the old man had knocked his palm over on his own initiative.
The old man's face was shocked, and he quickly changed his moves.
But his tactic just changed, and Yang Fang's long sword changed direction again, still aiming at his palm, as if the old man could always hit Yang Fang's palm no matter how he changed.
After changing more than ten times in a row, the old man was sweating coldly, his heart was shaking, and he quickly retreated out.
He knew that he would definitely meet a master tonight!
This must be a swordsmanship and cultivation base, all of which are extremely terrifying.
If the other party wants to take his own life, it will be as easy as pie!
He screamed, turned and fled.
San Xiaoliu Yun, all looked dull and shocked.
Such a master, where did his father invite him?
The one who escaped just now was the famous [Five Clouds Hand] Duan Qingtian!
Holy Spirit level master!
