big dream master

"Ghost market, I have seen it in ancient books, it is said that at certain specific times, in certain special places, there will be a place where the two worlds of yin and yang merge, and there will be a ghost market here, where ghosts from the underworld trade. If people in the world of the yang world enter it by mistake, they will often be deceived by nonsense and buy a bunch of paper-made things in exchange for a lot of useless ghost coins." Shen Luo thought for a while and said.

"These are all random speculations of the worldly people. Some people even wrote absurd stories about spitting on ghosts, turning them into goats and bringing them to the ghost market for sale. The real ghost market was originally a trade between monks in the underworld and ghosts in the underworld. Place, I can't give you the Yinling Pill you want directly, but there may be a way to get it over there." Hooking Ma Mian said unhurriedly.

"I hope senior will tell you when and where will the ghost market be open?" Shen Luo's heart moved and he asked hurriedly.

"Stop! Whether I can tell you the news about the ghost market depends on how well you performed during this trip to the Tibetan Wind Valley." Hooking Ma Mian raised a palm at Shen Luo, and said calmly.

"Senior, don't worry! Even if there is no such thing as a ghost market, I will definitely go all out. This time, my cultivation base has been raised by two small realms. Among other things, the mana is indeed filled a lot. It should be no problem to use the Thunderbolt Talisman twice. , should be enough to deal with some emergencies." Shen Luo smiled and said.

"That's good, it's not too late, let's go now." Hooking Ma's expression was slightly relaxed, and he nodded.

After finishing speaking, he twisted the talisman in his hand, grabbed Shen Luo's shoulder again, performed the art of escaping from the ground, and quickly left the underground cave.

When the two came out from the ground, the figure had already appeared in front of a valley.

Shen Luo looked up at the sun, and found that it was midday, when the sun energy was at its peak, but there were gusts of cool wind constantly blowing out from the valley in front of him, which felt a bit piercing.

He moved his gaze to the entrance of the valley, and saw a layer of pale white mist covering it, slightly escaping to the outside of the valley, and when he looked deeper into the valley, the fog inside became thicker and he couldn't see anything clearly.

"The evil spirit here is a bit stronger than when I came last time. You can see that the sky above the valley is also affected by the evil spirit. Something is wrong." The soul-hunting horse face said slowly.

Shen Luo heard the words, looked up to the sky, and then noticed an oval black cloud suspended in the void directly above the valley. It was not unusual at first glance, but if you look carefully, you will find that the mist inside is surging , there are faint grimaces of grievances emerging one after another, ferocious and terrifying.

"Dark clouds cover the top, and the evil spirit is restrained. It seems that it is indeed a very dangerous place." Shen Luo retracted his gaze and said thoughtfully.

While the two were talking, when they were about to enter the valley, they suddenly heard a loud noise coming from a distance outside the valley.

Immediately, the soul-hunting horse face pulled Shen's shoulders, and pulled him to hide behind a huge rock in the distance.

Soon, a group of people came on the road in the distance. Shen Luo saw at a glance that the leader was wearing a Confucian shirt. He was in his thirties. He was handsome and elegant. who?

Behind him was a short gray-robed old man with a thin face and gray hair. It was Bai Jiangfeng.

In addition to the two of them, there were four or five figures behind them, all of them were dressed as worshipers of the Bai family, and the most eye-catching one was naturally the exquisite female monk Xie Yuxin in a red dress.

Daoist Baishui, who was dressed in a gray Taoist robe, and Feng Ling, who was holding a folding fan, were also in the team. As for Wu Tong and Chu Li, they were nowhere to be seen.

In addition, Shen Luo also saw another acquaintance, with a thin figure and a head of silver hair tied back, looking hale and hearty, but it was the fifth grandma who was stationed in the secret room at the bottom of the Bai family lake.

"Not only the head of the family personally led the team, but even the fifth grandma went out together. It seems that the Bai family has made up their minds this time to win the first task on the ghost hunting list. In this way, you will save trouble." "Shen Luo swallowed, glanced at Ma Mian, and said with a smile.

"Based on this manpower, if we don't prepare any special means, I'm afraid it will be bad luck if we enter the valley, but it's not bad if someone takes the lead." Hooking Ma Mian said indifferently.

Shen Luo's heart tightened, a trace of hesitation flashed in his eyes, and then he lifted his foot and was about to walk out immediately.

"What are you doing?" Hooking Mamian stopped him and asked in a low voice.

"Since they are not strong enough, of course we have to stop them. I don't care about others. The Bai family and I have an unusual relationship. I can't just watch Baihecheng and Baijiangfeng go to their deaths." Shen Luo said.

"Who said they were sent to die? Haven't you figured out the purpose of our trip?" Hooking Mamian said.

"Senior, you mean to let them scare the snakes and attract the attention of the ghosts in the valley. Let's go straight to the Yellow Dragon to find the root of the evil?" Shen Luo was startled, then asked.

Chapter 0252

"Finally enlightened. When we solve the root cause, they will naturally be able to turn the crisis into safety. Besides, do you think, just relying on your current cultivation level of the seventh level of the Qi refining stage, to dissuade them from entering the valley, will they listen?" He sighed, glanced at Shen Luo, and asked back.

After thinking about it for a while, Shen Luo realized that this was indeed the case.The two of the Bai family may still listen to his suggestion for some reasons, but at most they are more vigilant, and they will never give up this mission just because of his few words.

At this time, the Bai family team had arrived at the mouth of the valley. After a brief pause, Bai Jiangfeng took out a piece of Qingxin Talisman and distributed them to everyone.

"The valley is full of fog barriers. It is hard to guarantee that there will be no 'ghosts hitting the wall'. Everyone, take this heart-purifying talisman to ensure that you will not be confused by the confusion. After entering the valley, I will lead the way. Afterwards, the rest of the people will wait in the center according to the formation of the long snake, take care of the wings, and beware of sneak attacks by ghosts." Bai Jiangfeng opened his mouth and said.

All the guests from the Bai family responded one after another.

Soon, after the formation of the team was completed, Baihecheng once again warned "be careful", and the group of people started to go inward.

Walking in front of the mist at the mouth of the valley, Bai Jiangfeng suddenly pinched his fingers together, took out another piece of yellow talisman paper, folded it in half, made a sharp corner at the top, and threw it forward suddenly.

A yellow light lit up on the folded talisman paper, and shot straight into the mist like an arrow, and soon it burned blazingly and disappeared.

"The barrier-breaking talisman has not encountered any obstacles, and we can pass ahead." Bai Jiangfeng said with a relaxed expression.

The entire team of the Bai family began to formally enter the valley at this moment, and their figures were engulfed in the white mist one by one. They were hazy at first, and then gradually disappeared.

After the figures of the Bai family members completely disappeared in the white mist, Haunting Horse Face and Shen Luo came out from behind the boulder.

"It seems that the Bai family has made a lot of preparations, and they underestimated them a little earlier. With this prudence, it shouldn't be too much of a problem for them to leave Hidden Wind Valley." The soul-hunting horse face said in an appreciative tone.

"Don't we need to make any preparations?" Shen Luo asked with some worry in his eyes.

"The mist is just the rising of evil spirits. Its cold breath causes the water vapor in the void to condense. Although it is mixed with evil spirits, it is troublesome for ordinary people, but it will not affect the body of monks." He shook his head and said.

After all, he stepped into the entrance of the valley first, and walked towards the mist. Shen Luo hesitated for a moment, but still followed.

Walking into the valley, Shen Luo immediately felt a burst of humidity around him, but as Ma Mian said, there was no big problem in the fog, so he was a little relieved.

The two walked unhurriedly. Along the way, they saw bun-shaped graves scattered around. Some had wooden tombstones inserted in front of them, while others had caved in and even the coffin boards were exposed.

Outside the more grave mounds, there are pieces of dead bones scattered on them, deeply and shallowly imprinted with tooth marks eaten by wild animals, and the eyes are full of depression.

Going further in, there are fewer untidy graves, but the fog ahead is getting thicker, but three feet away, it is already blurry, and nothing can be seen clearly.

Shen Luo concentrated his mind and listened intently to all the movements around him, but found that the surroundings were completely silent, only the sound of him and Hooking Ma Mian stepping on the soil withered leaves could be heard.

Fortunately, after walking for a quarter of an hour, the two walked out of the area shrouded in thick fog, and their vision suddenly became clearer.

Shen Luo looked forward, and saw a winding path hidden in the green and black wild grass. Although the trees on both sides were tall, they all showed a state of withering and dying. do.

"Follow me closely." Hooking Horse said without turning his head, and then walked forward along the path at a faster pace.

When Shen Luo heard the words, he hurriedly followed.

The two walked forward in silence, along the path in the grass and went inward. After bypassing a boulder, they saw the end of the valley at a glance. There was originally a canyon passage, but now it has collapsed and blocked, and there are jagged rocks everywhere. .

And the group of the Bai family was standing in front of a mountain wall on the left side of the canyon.

Shen Luo looked over there, and saw a huge cave opened on the mountain wall at a height of three feet above the ground. The inside was pitch black, and the depth could not be seen clearly. Diverge out.

Everyone in the Bai family seems to be making final preparations for entering the cave.

Baihe City, who was standing at the forefront of the crowd, suddenly waved his hand, and a ray of light flew out from between his sleeves. It circled in mid-air and hung obliquely above the cave.

It is an ancient bronze mirror the size of a human head.

Its back is engraved with a circle of fish, insect and bird patterns, surrounding a Taoist character in the center, and the front is extremely smooth, reflecting bright light.

I saw a soft moan from Baihecheng's mouth, pinched the formula with one hand, and pointed at the bronze mirror.

The bronze mirror immediately seemed to be knocked by someone, and there was a metal trembling sound, and the mirror turned accordingly, and a bright white light was refracted on it, heading straight into the cave.

The white light seemed to contain the scorching power of pure yang. As soon as it entered the cave, the strands of Yin Qi that escaped from there disappeared, and the more dense Yin Qi inside seemed to be very afraid of the white light. receding inward like a tide.

All the members of the Bai family worshiped the guest, and they all applauded when they saw this, praising the master's magical treasures, which are very effective.

Seeing this, Shen Luo was not surprised.

"The sun-dispelling mirror... It seems to be a high-grade magic weapon, but it's a pity that it doesn't take up a lot of space or time, so its effect is limited after all." The soul-hunting horse glanced at it, but shook his head and said.

"Senior, why did you say that?" Shen Luo asked doubtfully.

"This exorcising sun mirror uses the power of pure yang from the world to drive away evil spirits and ghosts. The more yang energy in the surrounding world, the stronger the condensed power of pure yang can be borrowed. It's a pity that the valley here is full of evil spirits. The place where the ghosts are entrenched does not occupy the convenience of the place. Even though it is noon at this moment, the sky above the head is covered by dark clouds, so it is also difficult to take advantage of the timing, so it would be good if the effect can be half of the original effect." Haunted Horse Face explained.

As soon as he finished speaking, there were bursts of thunderous rumbles in the cave on the mountain wall, and the strong Yin Qi that had been forced back into the cave by the white light of the mirror just now surged out like a tidal wave.

In the black mist, there were strange screams of "squeaks", and black bats the size of puppies flew out of it, and rushed towards the people outside the cave.

Shen Luo's heart shuddered, and he saw that fat black bat, with black oily shine all over its body, a black face that looked like a wild boar, and two white blood-sucking fangs protruding from the corners of its mouth, which made people shudder.

"It's a vampire bat, everyone be careful." Baihecheng shouted, twisting his wrist immediately.

Chapter 0253 Undercurrent

The runes on the sun-dispelling mirror in mid-air suddenly lit up, and the light reflected on the mirror turned from white to red in an instant, becoming hotter and hotter, shining on the swarms of vampire bats.

Seeing the red light sweeping across, a large group of ghost bats immediately let out bursts of heart-piercing screams, and scars like burns appeared on the fur all over the body, and white smoke came out from inside, exuding bursts of stench.

The ghost bats rushing out of the cave were blocked by the white light, and immediately diverted, bypassing the white light area, and continuing to attack everyone.

At this time, Bai Jiangfeng and the others also took action one after another, either throwing fire spells, or urging their respective instruments to turn into pieces of blazing flames and dazzling lights of various colors, and hit the vampire bats.

Shen Luo stared at the ghost bat above, but heard a series of "swishling" sounds in his ears, and hurriedly shifted his eyes to look.

As a result, palm-sized black beetles crawled out of the caves on the mountain wall, rushing towards the feet of the Bai family members like a black tide.

Those beetles have black hard shells on their backs, dense spikes on the surface, a pair of sharp beaks like scorpion pincers on their heads, and an incomparably rich green corpse gas entangled all over their bodies. One can tell at a glance that they contain intense corpse poison.

"Corpse beetles have been bred here! It seems that red-haired zombies must have been born in this cave." Hooking Ma said with a solemn expression when he saw this.

When Shen Luo heard this, he realized that the densely packed little things were actually the "corpse caterpillars" mentioned in the ancient books.

It is said that that thing feeds on yin qi, and is often born together with the red-haired zombie. It has its own corpse poison. If the person bitten by it does not detoxify in time, it will be infected by the corpse poison and die.

Even if there are lucky survivors, they will turn into zombies controlled by the red-haired zombies.

"Be careful of the corpse..." At this time, there was also an exclamation from the members of the Bai family.

Xie Yuxin, who was dressed in red, untied a red damask from her waist, held one end and shook it lightly, and the red damask snaked out like a fire python, and circled around the crowd, turning into a Circle the flames and protect them in the center.

However, the tide of corpses refused to stop, and continued to besiege the crowd, continuously rushing into the flames, even if they were scorched until they made a "squeaky" sound, they did not back down at all.

In an instant, wisps of green corpse energy rose from the flames, covering the area in a short time.

Seeing the ferocity of the fire, the corpse beetles on the ground began to gather together and hit the flames. Every time the corpse beetles on the outer layer were all burned to death, but one or two in the center could always pass through the flames alive and attack everyone.

Fortunately, Bai Xiaotian's fifth grandma didn't openly attack these ghost bats and corpse beetles like everyone else, but stood in the middle, helping everyone to check for omissions and fill in the gaps, and eliminate those who broke in.

His expression is serious, with deep wrinkles on his face, and loose skin on his body. Only his pair of jade hands are as smooth as a girl, covered with a hazy white light. Every time he waved, a crystal clear ox hair fine needle shot out from his fingertips. Go out and crucify the corpses and ghost bats who want to sneak attack.

The various attacks on the battlefield seem to be chaotic, but in fact they cooperate with each other to advance and retreat in an orderly manner.

……

At the same time, in an underground karst cave at the deepest part of the cave, there are spars emitting green light everywhere on the four walls, and the evil spirit inside is so thick that it is almost real.

On the ground in the center of the cave, there is a black pool several feet in size. The water inside is dark and thick, looks like kerosene, and exudes an indescribable strange smell.

From time to time, one or two bulging bubbles would appear on the viscous water surface like kerosene, and when they burst open, wisps of black air would slowly emerge from within.

On the dome of the cave above the pool, there were four black silk cocoons several feet high hanging upside down, and three of them had a long and narrow opening from top to bottom, and the inside was empty.

And there is only one intact cocoon left on the far right, with some living thing wrapped in it, there will be bulges here and there if you don’t try it on the surface, it seems that the things inside are also eager to break out of the cocoon.

At this time, the liquid level in the pool below suddenly ceased to be calm, and began to bubble up, and two human figures slowly rose from it.

It wasn't until half of their bodies were exposed that the viscous black liquid stained on them slipped off one after another, revealing their true faces.

The one on the left is as white as jade, without a trace of flesh and blood on its surface. It is a white skeleton monster with dark green flames in its two eye sockets, and leather armor on its wrists, ankles and waist. There are two white bone swords crossed from left to right on the back, which looks weird and funny at the same time.

Next to it, there is a hideous mutant zombie covered in scales, with a layer of short red hair growing between the gaps in the armor, a square face completely devoid of moisture, the skin shriveled, and the eyeballs bulged out. The white teeth and scarlet gums of the mouth are all exposed, which makes people feel cold.

And in the middle of the two, there is an imperceptible black air mass, which slowly emerges from the water, and in it, a phantom of a beast shaped like a water rhinoceros can be seen dimly running, but it is exactly the one who made the chaos in Yecheng before. The town river water beast.

In the viscous liquid, wisps of dark red and black mist continuously flowed out, winding towards the three of them, as if it was some kind of nourishment to nourish them.

The walls around the cave are still densely covered with black-armored corpse bats, and there are still vampire bats hanging upside down on the top of the cave. The number is huge, and it is almost as large as the ones that have rushed out of the cave.

"Blood food is here..." At this moment, a somewhat erratic voice suddenly sounded.

As soon as this erratic voice sounded, the two clumps of will-o'-the-wisps in the eye sockets of the white skull suddenly jumped and became brighter and brighter.

The red-haired zombie flew up and landed by the pool.

"Red zombie please fight."

A hoarse and rough voice sounded from the red-haired zombie's throat.

Immediately afterwards, the white skull flickered and landed beside it.

Although he couldn't speak out, he pulled out the bone sword from behind with both hands, crossed it and stabbed it into the ground in front of him, knelt down on one knee, and directly showed with actions that he would also fight.

The black air mass transformed by the river-suppressing water beast also flew out of the bank, jumping up and down in the void, looking unwilling to be left behind.

"Shui Sha stayed behind...red and stiff, crying in vain, you go together...not one of them will be left behind." The erratic voice sounded again.

The red-haired zombie and the white-boned skeleton got up immediately and took orders to go away. Only Zhenhe Water Beast flew back into the pool obediently.

The red-haired zombie leaped to the entrance of the cave, and thousands of corpses immediately gathered at his feet, turning into a black river, pushing him out of the cave.

Chapter 0254 Hard fight

The bone skeleton didn't play any fancy tricks, and walked out step by step.
