The day I was hugged by a goblin

"No, uncle, you can't go!"

"No, Xiaoshu, you can't go!"

Just when Gu Shu blurted out to go to the underworld, Zhu Meili and Gu Changlin almost expressed their objection in unison. Their faces were extremely determined, and Zhu Meili grabbed Gu Shu's arm firmly, "Uncle, don't go." In addition to the unspeakable worries, there are also pitiful prayers.

Unlike Gu Changlin, who is well aware of the extreme danger of this trip, Zhu Meili has an infinite fear of the word "underworld".In his perception, the underworld is equivalent to death. Gu Shu has said more than once that when he gets old or sick, he will go to the underworld one day.So Zhu Meili's fear of the underworld can be imagined.

How can Gu Shu not know the dangers of the underworld, but it is precisely because of the dangers that he should go all the more, because this is his only grandfather.But before Gu Shu could speak, Gu Changlin shook his head resolutely and solemnly.

"Xiaoshu, you can't go," Gu Changlin looked solemnly at the dark old wild ditch, "I must make this trip."

"grandfather……"

"Listen to me," Gu Shu wanted to say something, but Gu Changlin raised his hand to stop him, "I have been looking for her all these years, but I have never found it. I never thought that she was so strong that I couldn't control it. Just now You have also seen that our five high-ranking celestial masters can barely trap her with the Heavenly King Five Elements Soul Locking Formation, so you can imagine how much disaster she will cause if she comes out."

Gu Changlin's expression was gloomy, and what Gu Changlin said was of course very clear to him, and he was also very anxious about it. He just heard Gu Changlin continue, "Her attacks are getting stronger every time. According to this trend, I'm afraid I won't be able to last until the Ghost Festival ends tomorrow night." , and, I'm afraid she will be desperate tomorrow night."

"Can I ask the underworld for help?" Although he asked this way, in fact Gu Shu was not sure. After all, things in the yin and yang worlds cannot interfere with each other. Although they are ghosts in the underworld, they did not go to them The underworld is not an escape from the underworld, so they mostly don't care about the ghosts who stay in the world. This is exactly the meaning of the existence of Gu Shu and other celestial masters.

Sure enough, Gu Changlin shook his head, "Even if they are willing to help, it's too late."

"Then what can you do in the underworld?" Gu Shu asked doubtfully.

"The root cause of this female ghost turning into a ghost and causing harm to the world is the resentment caused by her lover's betrayal and deceit thousands of years ago. Even though the complete catastrophe after a thousand years is related to me, the root cause is still there, so the only hope now is To find out the truth of the year, hoping to find a way to restrain her, "the so-called attacking the heart is the first, it is obviously impossible to directly suppress her with morality, this is their only hope, "so I have to go," Gu Changlin He suddenly looked at Gu Shu with unquestionable eyes, "Only I know her best."

Gu Shu was shocked, and couldn't find any rebuttal for a while. Gu Changlin was indeed the most suitable candidate, but how could he bear to let his grandfather take risks.Gu Shu didn't know that even if Gu Changlin wasn't the right candidate, he would still stick to it, because he was old and Gu Shu was still young.

Gu Changlin's unquestionable attitude made it impossible for Gu Shu to refute, but in the overall situation, Gu Changlin was indeed the most suitable candidate.Furthermore, he who stayed was not just sitting back and worrying.

The Five Elements Soul Locking Formation of the Heavenly King was jointly deployed by five celestial masters. This is an extremely deep and powerful soul locking formation. It is no exaggeration to say that in the entire world of celestial masters, there are no more than ten people who know how to set up this soul locking formation. One can imagine the power and status of this Soul Locking Formation.

The five celestial masters each occupy their own positions, and one is indispensable, but if one party is defeated, the other four parties will also be self-defeating. Therefore, once Gu Changlin leaves, someone must take his place, and at this moment, Gu Shu is the best. Fortunately, although Gu Shu's Taoism is not as advanced as Gu Changlin's, he is also a leader in the world of celestial masters. Therefore, it is not too difficult for him to defend the heavenly king's five-element soul-locking array with the other four celestial masters.

But the terrible thing is that when setting up the soul lock array, because Gu Changlin's Taoism is the most profound and powerful, he was assigned to the most important and also the most difficult northeast corner.The northeast corner is the location closest to the ghost gate, in other words, it is the location where the most yin qi is most likely to be attacked by ghosts.

So in fact, Gu Shu's task is not much easier than going to the underworld.

In the blink of an eye, it was early morning, and the frequency of Li Gui's attacks became more and more frequent, especially when it was close to the early morning, when the Yin Qi was the heaviest, and Li Gui's power became stronger. In just a few hours, Li Gui attacked the Heavenly King Five Elements Lock many times The soul array, trying to break through the soul lock array and escape from the shackles, especially the northeast corner where Gu Shu was, obviously became the best attack position for Li Gui.

Gu Changlin was not in a hurry to leave. Although the time was short, he was still worried about Gu Shu. Taking advantage of the female ghost's several attacks, he carefully explained to Gu Shu the key points of the Soul Locking Formation, and repeatedly emphasized that if you really resist When he couldn't stay, how should Gu Shu protect himself and other precautions, it wasn't until the middle of the night when the ghosts subsided a little, that Gu Changlin gritted his teeth, left his soul, and went to the underworld.

Gu Shu has been staying at Gu Changlin's location, in the northeast corner, holding on to the Heavenly King's Soul Locking Formation, but at this time, his task is to guard the Soul Locking Formation, and that is to guard his grandfather's physical body Generally speaking, if Gu Changlin's physical body is damaged, even if he succeeds in the underworld, he will not be able to return to the human world. This is what he must protect for his grandfather, and he temporarily entrusted this task to Zhu Meili.

Of course, there is no difference between guarding Gu Changlin's physical body and guarding the soul-locking formation. Gu Changlin's physical body is naturally not in any danger if he guards the soul-locking formation.

It wasn't until daylight that the sun's rays pierced through the clouds on the horizon little by little, and then crossed the mountains to illuminate the deep ditch little by little. The dark night was replaced by light, and the ghosts that had been tossing all night finally fell silent. He wiped the sweat off his brow with a sigh of relief.

During the day when there is plenty of sunshine, it is the time when the yang energy is strong, and it is also the time when Li Gui's strength is weakest. Li Gui will never choose this time to break through the soul-locking array. Of course, this does not mean that Gu Shu and the five can rest. Still can't relax at all, but they will be much more relaxed.

Until the morning sun completely illuminated the bottom of the ditch, Zhu Meili's tense nerves finally breathed a sigh of relief. Gu Shu asked him to take good care of Grandpa Gu's body. At this time, Gu Changlin was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed under a slightly flat tree. Not far from them, Gu Shu was sitting on the ground with some fatigue. There was no sign of Li Gui, nor the transparent iron chains of the Soul Locking Formation.

"Uncle ~ why hasn't Grandpa come back?" Obviously, he had asked this question more than once.

Sure enough, as soon as Gu Shu turned his head, he saw Zhu Meili looking anxiously at him. Since the time when his grandfather left his soul, he had asked him so many times, but he was very obedient and dared not leave his grandfather's body. So Gu Shu beckoned to him to let him down.

Zhu Xi hesitated for a while at first, but after looking around in peace, he ran to Gu Shu's side, and then bumped into Gu Shu's arms, "Uncle, ghosts dare not come out during the day, right?"

Gu Shu amusedly rubbed the pig's head staring at the pair of expecting Danfeng eyes, then nodded, and sure enough, a certain pig's eyes lit up, but Gu Shu said quickly, "Go back if you're afraid, stay away."

"What are you talking about?" Zhu Ning straightened up and stared at Gu Shu, "I still want to protect Grandpa's body."

"You will make excuses." Gu Shu poked his finger, turned his head to look at the calm and bright old wild ditch, there were no birds or insects, and the death-like silence, what was hidden behind this calm, he again Clearly.

"Hey~" Zhu Meili lay on Gu Shu's body stupidly. The joy of being with Gu Shu completely concealed his fear of being shivering from being frightened by the ghosts. In other words, as long as he could be with their master, everything else can be ignored.

During the day, when the yang energy is strong, Li Gui's counterattack is indeed much weaker, especially at noon, Li Gui is completely silent. Obviously, the one inside is also a smart master. Since there is no possibility of the Soul Locking Formation relaxing during the day, she will naturally not No more wasting time and strength, just go completely silent and accumulate strength.

So Gu Shu and his party kept watch for a whole day. In the blink of an eye, dusk came, and the sun sank into the mountains a little bit, until the afterglow of the sun was completely swallowed up by the mountains. The night was about to replace the light, and a new round of attacks seemed imminent.But the point is, Gu Changlin hasn't come back yet.

Gu Shu suddenly hooked a certain pig into his arms as if playing around, and then said seriously, "The pig is beautiful, and now I have a very, very important task for you, are you willing to complete it?"

"What?" The timid Zhu Meili's eyes lit up unexpectedly, after all, he was very happy to be able to help Gu Shu at last.

"Are you hungry?" Gu Shu asked without answering.

As a result, as soon as Gu Shu finished speaking, Zhu Meili's stomach gurgled very cooperatively, and Zhu Meili's face turned red from embarrassment, but then he puffed out his chest and faced Gu Shu's playful eyes, "Of course I'm hungry, Are you not hungry?" Since I had dinner at the village chief's grandfather's house last night until now, I haven't eaten all day and night, can I not be hungry?In fact, he was already so hungry that his saliva cleared, but he was too embarrassed to say it.

Gu Shu smiled, "I'm hungry too, very hungry."

Zhu Xi giggled, sure enough she wasn't hungry alone, but, "Then what should I do?"

Gu Shu suddenly approached him, "This is the important task I assigned you."

"Huh?" Zhu Xi still looked dazed.

"You go back to the village now to find the village chief's grandfather, and then..."

"I'm not going back!" Before Gu Shu finished speaking, Zhu Meili put on a serious face. Obviously, their master wanted to send him away again. Do you really think him stupid?Zhu Xi glared at Gu Shu with a humming look, and turned around to break free from his arms.

Gu Shu hurriedly pushed the person back, "Listen to me and finish." Zhu Meili snorted and turned her head to the side, probably remembering what Gu Shu had thrown at Sangli Mountain, and immediately became angry again He snorted twice, Gu Shu couldn't laugh or cry.

"I'm not telling you to leave, I mean, you go back to the village chief's house and bring us some food." Gu Shu said and poked his finger at his forehead again.

"Huh?" Zhu Xi turned around in surprise, and felt a little embarrassed at Gu Shu's playful eyes, but he would not admit it, so he just listened to Gu Shu continue.

"My stomach is almost starved, how can I have the strength to deal with ghosts?" Gu Shu said with a look of weakness, and sure enough, Zhu Meili, who is a deep foodie, only felt that the hunger was even stronger, and she was completely powerless. There are those four celestial masters, they have been hungry for two days, and they are all old people, let alone hungry, the ghosts will definitely attack wildly at night, if they can't stand it because of hunger, wouldn't it be too dangerous gone."

"Yes." Zhu Meili nodded approvingly.

Gu Shu raised his eyebrows and continued, "So now you understand the importance of this task?"

"Well," Zhu Nai nodded, but then shook his head again, "but I can't leave, Grandpa's physical body..."

"There is me." Zhu Meili interrupted Gu Shu before he finished speaking.

Zhu Meili was still reluctant, because the sky had already turned gray at this time, and it was almost eight o'clock in the blink of an eye, and it was estimated that it would be dark in a while, and then this ghost would make trouble again, how could he leave at this time?But what Gu Shu said was not unreasonable, and this was the only thing he could do, and he couldn't help with anything else.

Gu Shu saw that he was hesitant, so he continued, "Besides bringing us food, you have another more important task."

"what?"

"Notify the village chief and let him organize the villagers to evacuate as soon as possible. The farther the better, you must ensure that there is no one in the village before you can come back." Gu Shu said the matter seriously, and Zhu Xi seemed to feel Gu Shu's full love for him Trust and trust, so Zhu Xi finally nodded solemnly.

"Uncle, don't worry, I will definitely come back as soon as possible," Zhu Meili seemed to have never been so serious, "I will definitely do what you tell me."

"I believe in you." Gu Shu just hooked him into his arms again and hugged him tightly, but it was rare that he didn't tease him again.

It wasn't until seeing Zhu Meili's figure completely disappearing into the mountains and forests that Gu Shu raised his eyebrows slightly, and there was an indescribable reluctance on his face besides the solemnity.

The silly white pig has always believed in his words, so he can't tell when Gu Shu is teasing him, when he is joking with him, or when he is really lying to him seriously.

Gu Shu believes that the villagers must have evacuated the village within today, he believes in Team Wang's efficiency, and he also believes that Zhu Meili will definitely bring them food back, so when Zhu Meili, who can't cook, comes back, It must have been at least two or three hours, and at that time, maybe Grandpa has returned, maybe the ghosts have been wiped out by them, or maybe, I have...

Looking at Laoyegou, which has completely fallen into darkness again, the transparent iron chain above Laoyegou is looming in the darkness, and the flickering soul-locking iron chain indicates that the breath of the ghost inside is gathering little by little. The real battle , it will start soon, and both of them are fighting with their backs.
