Start as a Temple Spirit

When the old patriarch saw Yibao and Wangyou, they started to act shy, like a couple caught in a secret meeting by their parents.

He suppressed his laughter and asked seriously, "It's Xiaobao, Xiaoyou, did you two find anything unusual during your inspection?"

After all, we have to take into account the girl's thin skin.

"Nothing, nothing happened. When I passed by the prisoner camp, some prisoners expressed their desire to join our Forgotten Village." Yibao responded with a red face and stuttering.

"We'll discuss this later. You two can continue your patrol." The old patriarch said kindly.

"Yes," Yibao and Wangyou responded hurriedly and fled.

"Haha" After the two men ran away, the old patriarch couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Shang Liangshan had nothing to do, so he followed his heart and asked about Yibao and Wangyou.

The old patriarch happily recounted the heroic deeds of the orphan leopard saving the little girl.

Wangyou, who had escaped, also curiously asked Shang Liangshan about the situation of the young seventh elder.

When she learned that Shang Liangshan was the legendary temple spirit, her beautiful eyes widened.

"The Seventh Elder is the patron saint of the Forgotten Township. It is because of the existence of the Seventh Elder that when one group of ghosts comes, another group of us comes. The strength of the Forgotten Township has also become visibly stronger." Yibao said respectfully.

"Temple Spirit..."

"It's the Seventh Elder." Yibao corrected Wangyou's address.

"Does the Seventh Elder patrol the village with the clan leader every night?" Wangyou asked curiously.

"Yes," Yibao nodded and said respectfully, "The Seventh Elder has been on night duty since July 13th, and will not return to the dojo to practice until dawn."

"Brother Bao, can you tell me in detail the process of the Seventh Elder killing the ghost." Although Wangyou had no close relatives who died at the hands of ghosts, the elders who took care of her died while cutting off their retreat, so she has hatred for ghosts.

The call of "Brother Bao" melted Yi Bao's heart, and he naturally told him everything he knew.

The night gradually deepened, and just when everyone thought they could spend the night in peace, Heizi came back with a roar.

In its claws was a strange-looking ghost-like creature, with a ghostly aura, a pitch-black body, about sixty centimeters long, and a snake with bat wings.

"What kind of ghost is this?" Yihuo asked everyone as he looked at the ghost with wings and a snake body, which was pressed against the village wall by Heizi's sharp claws, with bloodshot eyes and constantly struggling.

"never seen it."

"Never heard of it." Everyone shook their heads, indicating that they had never seen or heard of such a ghost.

"This ghost winged snake is not very powerful, but its yin energy is very pure, even better than any ghost of the same level I have seen before." Shang Liangshan said, looking at the ghost winged snake.

"Liangshan, now that you mention it, I have an idea of ​​a possibility." Yang Chao thought of something.

"Jiuyou." The old patriarch and Yifeng uttered the two words at the same time.

"Yes, Jiuyou. Only Jiuyou can make this ghost winged snake with only level three strength have such pure Yin energy." Yang Chao said in agreement.

"We are in big trouble." Shang Liangshan said with a wry smile.

"Swish, swish, swish" everyone looked at him to clarify.

Shang Liangshan explained: "If I am not guessing, this ghost winged snake should be an empty sentry."

When everyone heard this, their faces changed instantly and became ugly.

The empty sentry is responsible for detective work.

This also means that there is a large army of ghosts heading towards the Forgotten Land.

"Why don't we let this ghost go back?" Yihuo suggested.

"Bang!" The old patriarch couldn't help but kicked him on the butt, saying unhappily, "If you put it back, it will attract an army of ghosts."

Shang Liangshan was even more straightforward and gave Heizi a look.

Heizi immediately understood, and his black beak flashed with a sharp black edge, and he pecked at the head of the winged snake monster, ending its life on the spot.

"Swish" a purple light shot out and wrapped around the ghost winged snake thrown up by Heizi, turning into a one-meter purple furnace of heaven and earth, refining its corpse.

No matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat, let alone a third-level ghost winged snake.

"Don't worry too much, the army of ghosts is not coming for us. They are probably the Yin soldiers passing through." Shang Liangshan saw that everyone was worried and expressed his guess.

"Liang Shan is right. Our small village does not need to be attacked by a large army of ghosts." The old patriarch echoed.

"The clan leader and Liangshan are right. Those who need to rest should go back and rest, and come back to take over in the second half of the night." Yifeng walked towards the corridor of the village wall, using his actions to calm people's hearts.

The remaining gold, the remaining water, the remaining bear and the remaining wolf followed closely behind.

They all understood that no matter whether the army of ghosts came to attack or not, worrying was useless and the only thing they had to do was prepare for war.

Therefore, going back to practice now is the right decision. Any improvement in strength is a good one.

"Liangshan, have you thought of something?" The old patriarch looked at Shang Liangshan and asked.

Shang Liangshan heard this and said helplessly: "Old Patriarch, you have your own guesses, why bother asking me?"

"What guess?" Yihuo asked curiously.

"This army of ghosts should be heading for the wedding party and the ghost force where they are. We are unlucky as we are on the route of the ghost army." The old patriarch expressed his guess.

"That is to say, we have to avoid being exploited by the army of ghosts." Yang Chao pondered.

"Yeah," the old patriarch nodded heavily.

"There's no point in worrying. Just do what you need to do. Everything should be fine tonight. The disaster will come tomorrow night." Shang Liangshan said as he walked towards the tea table.

"Liang Shan is right. Little Leopard, Little Snake, you two go on patrol." The old patriarch waved his hand.

"Yes." Yibao and the other man took the order and left.

Yihuo looked around and saw that there were only himself, the clan leader, Shang Liangshan and Yang Chao left.

So he looked at Shang Liangshan and asked in a low voice: "Hey, Liangshan, are you sure you can deal with Li Gui?"

"Not sure." Shang Liangshan shook his head. He was kidding. With his strength, he would only be beaten by a ghost. Unless it was a combination of ghosts and spirits...

"Li Gui is a general. Since he is leading an army to attack other ghost forces, he will not act rashly." The old patriarch analyzed.

"If our village was stronger, it would be possible to make the ghost army weigh the pros and cons." Yang Chao pondered.

"We are quite powerful now. Zhongxiao and the others have just made a breakthrough. The Confucianism's righteous spirit has a great deterrent effect on ghosts, so the ghost army should not attack our village." Shang Liangshan looked at Yanfeng and said.

"What? Zhongxiaoliangquan and the others made a breakthrough." Yihuo exclaimed in surprise.

The old patriarch remained relatively calm, but he could hardly hide his excitement.

Yang Chao said in astonishment: "The four brothers from the academy have made a breakthrough. This is a good thing. No wonder you are so confident, Liang Shan."

Shang Liangshan heard this and muttered to himself, "It doesn't matter if it's not enough. I can't escape anyway."

"Old man, go back and have a rest." The old patriarch stood up and walked towards Yongdao.

"Chief, drink some wine before going back to sleep." Yang Chao said hurriedly.

As soon as these words were spoken, the old patriarch paused, thought about it, and thought that drinking a little wine would help him sleep better, so he turned around and went back.

"Hey, I'll go get some side dishes." Yihuo laughed, stood up and walked quickly towards the corridor.
