Chapter 425 Lu Yang: It’s my turn to take action
"There is a small village in the southeast of Hanshui City called Baishui Village. There is a couple in the village. The husband is Liu San. One morning, Liu San woke up and found that his wife did not wake him up as usual. It was very strange."
“Liu San called for his wife at home to no avail, so he started looking for her and finally found her drowned in a basin of water.”
“Wu Zuo found that his wife had no signs of struggle when she died, as if she had drowned voluntarily in a basin of water. He was very puzzled, so he reported it to the authorities. After some investigation, the government concluded that the death was caused by a drowned ghost.”
“The so-called drowned ghost is someone who drowned in the water and had resentment in his heart. When he died, he happened to encounter a yin energy, and then he became a ghost and haunted the world.”
“Drowning ghosts often live in rivers, lakes and seas. It happens that there is a cold pool near Baishui Village. The water in the pond is too cold and ordinary people will get sick if they take it for a long time. The yin energy is very strong, which is suitable for drowning ghosts to live in."
“A senior Jindan late-stage brother happened to pass by on his way back to the sect. Hearing about this, he went to Hantan to investigate and asked the living corpse to go into the water to catch the drowned ghost.”
“But the drowned ghost is very powerful. He is at least half a step into the Nascent Soul stage, and may even be in the early stage of the Nascent Soul stage.”
“There are too many ghosts in Hanshui City, and the power that the government and sects can mobilize is stretched thin. There is no extra manpower to deal with the drowned ghosts.”
“How about, do you want to take this mission?”
Zhao Po got a task, briefly summarized it, and asked Lu Yang and the others.
Meng Jingzhou felt that it was just a dead ghost and not challenging: "It doesn't sound difficult. Is there anything more challenging?"
“There is a female ghost who got married in an underworld marriage…”
“Just drown the ghost.” Meng Jingzhou quickly interrupted Zhao Po.
Just kidding, given his current situation, either the female ghost doesn't like him and won't come out, or she doesn't like him and wants to slap him to death.
"Okay, let's set off." Zhao Po gave each of the three a talisman before leaving.
“What kind of talisman is this?”
"The soul-dispersing talisman is specially made by the sect and is given to every disciple who goes to solve the disaster caused by ghosts. The sect finds that it is difficult to completely kill the ghosts. Even if the evil ghosts are defeated and beaten to weakness, there is no corresponding means. It is difficult to kill evil ghosts, so I worked with the government's talisman masters and ghost-hunting Taoists to specially make this talisman overnight."
The disciples of the Corpse Exorcist Sect are all corpse exorcists. They practice Yin attributes, which are similar to the attributes of evil ghosts. They can defeat evil ghosts, but they are difficult to kill.
“When we defeat the Drowned Ghost, we can use this talisman to kill the Drowned Ghost!”
"Your Majesty is very considerate." Lu Yang smiled and put away the soul-dispersing talisman. In fact, it was not necessary for them.
With Meng Jingzhou, the nemesis of ghosts and ghosts, even burning can kill the ghosts.
Whether it is pure yang true fire or three-flavored true fire, they are both things that can restrain evil spirits.
Hantan is located at the opposite corner of the Zombie Sect, separated by a whole Hanshui City. The group left the Zombie Sect and walked directly through Hanshui City, passing by the BBQ restaurant that was still in its trial period.
Hanshui City is still prosperous, with people coming and going, and the crowds are crowded. The evil ghost disaster has not had much impact on the prosperity of the city.
First of all, there are many people in Hanshui City and the Yang energy is strong, so the evil spirits dare not easily enter and cause trouble here.
Secondly, even if you go home, it may not be very safe. A door cannot stop evil spirits who are intent on causing trouble. On the contrary, it is safer to be in a crowded place outside.
Four people and one corpse passed through Baishui Village and arrived at Hantan according to the location described in the mission.
Standing by the pond, the four of them could feel the chill brought by the cold pond.
Hantan is surrounded by mountains on three sides and is not exposed to sunlight all year round. It is also surrounded by lush vegetation, especially a few old locust trees, which are the most conspicuous.
Multiple factors make the water in the pool cold.
The water in the pool is clear, but the bottom cannot be seen and the location of the drowned man cannot be found.
“It’s so strange, why aren’t there any fish?” Meng Jingzhou wondered. Logically speaking, there should be a lot of fish in a place like this. Even a big fish weighing 180 kilograms would not be surprising.
But the reality is that there is not a single fish in the pond, not even any fry.
“Been eaten by a ghost? Do ghosts still eat fish?”
Lu Yang pushed Meng Jingzhou aside, who kept asking questions, and squatted on the ground to observe the cold pool: "Don't worry about whether to eat fish or not. Just wait until you catch it and ask again. How to proceed with the current question? Who of us is proficient in water properties and can draw out the evil ghost? ?”
"I'm here, I'll invite the living corpse to go down!" Zhao Po lit three incense sticks and bowed to the living corpse three times. The living corpse absorbed the breath of the three incense sticks, and its pale skin became rosy, and its empty eyes became a little lively.
The living corpse jumped into the cold pool, and the calm water rippled. It was obvious that the living corpse had found the drowned ghost and was fighting.
The power of ghosts comes from the inner fear of living beings and the fragility of their souls, both of which have no effect on living corpses.
Zhao Po's head was sweating coldly and his teeth were chattering. He could synchronize the feelings of the living corpse and sense how powerful the ghost facing the living corpse was, doubling the pressure.
“Brother Zhao?” Lu Yang was concerned.
"The information is wrong. The drowned ghost below is not half-step Yuanying or early Yuanying, but middle Yuanying!"
“The living corpse also saw a female corpse below, it should be the wife who drowned in Baishui Village!”
“The living corpse is bringing out the drowned ghost, be prepared!” Zhao Po shouted.
Upon hearing this, Lu Yang and the other two people quickly assumed a fighting stance. The Drowned Ghost would be violently bombarded as soon as he showed up.
boom-
The water surface exploded, and a figure jumped out of the water.
“Three flavors are really hot!”
“Pure Yang True Fire!”
“Domineering Barbarian King Fist!”
The three of them attacked at the same time, and when they were about to hit the figure, Zhao Po hurriedly shouted to stop.
“Stop, stop, stop, what comes out is not a drowned ghost, but my living corpse!”
The three of them quickly changed direction, but the attack failed and hit the cliff. The boulder rolled down with a loud roar.
Zhao Po's eyes twitched when he saw it. This attack didn't look like the power of the Golden Core Stage.
“Where is the drowned ghost?” Lu Yang wondered.
Zhao Po showed an awkward smile: "When I shouted to get ready just now, my voice was too loud. The drowned ghost heard it and ran back when he knew there was an ambush."
"It's difficult to handle. If he knows there is an ambush, he will definitely not take the bait." Mangu was in a dilemma, not knowing what to do.
“How about using the storage ring to drain the water?” Meng Jingzhou suggested.
Zhao Po shook his head: "No, this cold pool has become the domain of the drowned ghost, and the storage ring cannot absorb the owner's things."
Lu Yang smiled confidently: "Leave this matter to me, just so you can see the unique skills I have practiced hard for many days!"
“What other crooked spells have you learned?” Meng Jingzhou asked curiously.
“This magical power is famous, you guys will know it at a glance!” Lu Yang pretended to be profound, which made Meng Jingzhou even more curious and itchy in his heart.
“Show me quickly.”
Lu Yang was walking around the edge of the pool, using his magic power to make the wind blow under his robe, causing the robe to flutter, making him feel like he had transformed into an immortal.
"Listen to the evil ghosts below, Pindao will give you a chance. If you don't come out again, don't blame Pindao for using his tactics!"
The water in the pool was calm.
Lu Yang had already guessed that the drowned ghost would not respond. He turned his palm, pressed it on the water, and then raised it sharply. The water formed a waterspout, and the coefficient entered his palm, revealing the drowned ghost living at the bottom of the pond.
Lu Yang turned around, waved his sleeves gently, and said with great coolness, "I guessed it, this is the palm I have perfected after many days of hard work..."
Zhao Po was stunned when he saw this scene and was speechless for a long time: "This, this is the legendary Universe in the Sleeve!"
With a flick of the sleeve, the pond water is sucked into the sleeve and disappears. What else could this be but the universe in the sleeve?
“…Yes, this is what I have in my sleeve!”
