This Liao Zhai is not right

"I won't talk to you anymore. It will take at least an hour to get to Guyuan to talk."

He turned around in a panic and fled out of the small courtyard of the land temple, walking quickly towards the direction of the ghost gate of the charity cemetery on the outskirts of the city.

As the number of ghost soldiers from the underworld gradually decreased, the nights in Guobei County became increasingly deserted. Su Su pursed his lips and concentrated on his journey.

But my mind was full of thoughts. I subconsciously reached out and touched the corner of my lips. It felt smooth and warm. I couldn't help but think, "Is it really as soft and delicious as she said? I clearly didn't feel anything. She must be lying to me!"

It was late at night and there were no pedestrians on the road. In a short while, Su Su arrived at the charity cemetery on the outskirts of the city and descended into the underworld through the Ghost Gate.

Compared to the time before he replaced the throne of King Biancheng, Su Su felt his body was exceptionally light this time after he descended to the underworld. He used the art of walking to travel quickly. Originally, he could only cross a distance of more than ten feet, but with the help of the cold wind around him, the distance he could cross suddenly increased, which was several times more than that in the world of the living.

He took a step forward, and the wind whistled on both sides of his ears. His figure flew through the air, and in the distance he could see the endless Black Mountain Range with flags waving. Hundreds of ghost soldiers from the underworld were crossing the steep mountain streams, engaging in battle with the ghost soldiers under the command of the Black Mountain Lord who were hiding there. The market town built by the ghosts at the foot of the Black Mountain had been razed to the ground at some point in time.

"All of Black Mountain Lord's forces have been retracted back to the influence area of Black Mountain itself. This way, I will be much safer while traveling in the underworld."

With each step, the Black Mountain Range, which stretched over 700 miles in the underworld, gradually disappeared from sight.

It took Su Su about two quarters of an hour to follow the Wangchuan River, which flowed from east to west, and the Gegu Garden located in Yishui came into his sight.

"I always feel that the topography of the underworld doesn't seem to be completely the same as that of the living world. From Yishui, Shandong to Guobei County, north of Jinhua Prefecture, it is thousands of miles away in the living world, but in the underworld, you only need to walk through the Black Mountain Range, which is the main body of the Black Mountain Lord, to reach the vicinity of Gegu Garden."

Su Su did not only have this feeling now, but also felt the difference between the world of the living and the underworld when Sun Si Niang took her to search for the location of the City of the Dead in the Black Mountain Range last time.

Just the fact that there are no ghost gates in the underworld within the Black Mountain Range that stretches over 700 miles is enough to explain a lot of things. You must know that the Black Mountain Range, which is the main body of the Black Mountain King, runs from north to south and almost includes most of the fertile land in the south of the Yangtze River. In such a vast area, there must be many ghost gates leading to and from the underworld.

If opening the Ghost Gate reveals the true form of Lord Black Mountain, then the ghost messenger in the underworld who is responsible for collecting souls would have to stop working. Therefore, there are very few Ghost Gates that can be compared with the world of the living.

Stopping by the mighty and surging Wangchuan River, on the other side is the dimly lit Gegu Garden with a large mansion.

He mobilized the power of the Yang God to perform the art of divine movement. He lightly stepped on the ground and flew up. The fiery Yang energy of the Wangchuan River continued to surge up. If one used the Yin God to forcibly cross the river, the strong Yang energy would rush over him and his magic would dissipate. He would fall uncontrollably into the Wangchuan River and would have difficulty in getting out. However, Su Su was not affected at all and landed steadily on the other side of the Wangchuan River.

At this time, it was deep in the night in the Yang world and the yin energy was very strong.

For the ghosts in the underworld, this is the most beneficial environment for their ghost bodies.

But Su Su raised his eyes and looked towards the Geigu Garden not far away. Previously, he could not see clearly because of the dark night in the underworld. But now, although it was not far away, he saw that large houses in the Geigu Garden were all on fire, burning the surrounding night sky almost as bright as day.

Watching from afar, one could see ghosts everywhere in the Geigu Garden. Some of them were holding weapons to slaughter the souls of those who had died unjustly in the garden, while others broke into the houses and looted at will. The many servants working under Jinse were frightened and fled in all directions. They did not dare to stop the robbers who had entered the Geigu Garden and caused chaos.

A resentful and evil ghost stood up from the courtyard, stretched out his bloodless hands and grabbed the robbers who were causing chaos in the lonely garden at a tricky angle.

However, compared to the illusory and floating ghosts, the group of robbers who were causing chaos in the lonely garden were even more bizarre. They were suddenly attacked by the evil ghost who died unjustly, and their bodies dispersed like black mist, and then attached to the evil ghost's body, gathering and dispersing unpredictably.

But in a moment, the robbers spread out like black mist and pierced the chest of the evil ghost. The weapon in his hand revealed an evil nature, splitting the evil ghost into two halves, and it turned into ashes.

Su Su walked quickly into the Geigu Garden, mobilized the power of Yangshen, and threw out a dense cinnabar, thunder and fire smoke screen from his hands, which covered the rebellious robber who had just split the dead ghost in half.

There was a constant crackling sound of tiny explosions, and the red fire cloud immediately burned the rioting robbers to a crisp.

But soon, the rebellious robbers who were about to be burned to death by the cinnabar thunder and fire smoke screen dispersed again like black fog, and wisps of it leaked out of the range covered by the cinnabar thunder and fire smoke screen, and then returned to their original state. Only the black fog was damaged by the cinnabar thunder and fire smoke screen, and its size became a little smaller.

"Something is wrong. These robbers causing chaos in the orphanage do not seem to be ghosts."

Su Su immediately realized that there was something wrong with these robbers who were causing chaos in the lonely garden.

Chapter 134: The Demonic Tribulation

As Su Su's thoughts wandered, the hideous-looking robber in front of him suddenly wrinkled his face, and then broke into pieces and fell to the ground under Su Su's gaze.

He was indeed not a ghost from the underworld, but a figure wearing armor, but with no facial features. There was only a blurry black shadow inside the armor.

"A fox demon monster came to my door!"

A blurry black shadow floated within the armor and made a sound. The sound was hoarse and dry, like the sound of a broken gong, with no distinction between high and low notes, and seemed extremely stiff.

The weapon in his hand suddenly turned into a strong bow with an arrow on the string. In just a blink of an eye, the blurry black shadow in Su Su's eyes turned into a mountain hunter wearing a red fox fur coat, with murderous eyes and murderous intent.

When the arrow was shot, Su Su actually had the illusion that he was a fox facing his natural enemy and was hunted by it, and he had no intention of resisting at all.

All things in the world are interdependent and mutually exclusive, just like a butcher who has been killing for many years can make the livestock to be slaughtered obediently just by the murderous aura he exudes, and the butcher knife in his hand that slaughters the livestock can become a weapon that even gods and ghosts fear.

Hunters who have been able to hunt safely in the mountains for many years are naturally the nemesis of fox demons and monsters. In the article "Hua Gu Zi", the snake demon that killed An Youyu was easily killed by a few hunters with bows and arrows.

"But...that's it?"

Su Su didn't even lose consciousness for a moment. She calmly dodged the arrow by turning sideways. Then she stretched out her hand and snapped her fingers, and an egg-shaped object the size of a palm was thrown out by her.

All I heard was a loud 'boom'.

The flames that shot up into the sky blew the murderous mountain hunter into pieces.

The black mist reappears.

But this time Su Su was well prepared.

As the soul-beating ruler was blessed by the power of exorcism, a large amount of bright white mist suddenly emanated from one end of the ruler.

Drops of water falling down.

The black fog that tried to escape from the flames was quickly suppressed. However, when Su Su was about to use the soul-binding spell to find out what the black fog was, another group of robbers came with sharp weapons.

“Kill kill kill kill kill kill…”

The wrinkled skin on his face began to break and fall off, revealing a blurry black shadow wearing armor.

After a moment, they turned into elite ghost generals covered in armor, with fangs in their mouths, ferocious faces, and weapons in their hands that were almost solid. They attacked Su Su's vital points without showing any mercy.

Without waiting for them to rush to him, Su Su took out a green bamboo fan from his sleeve and waved it casually. The cold wind from the underworld whistled continuously, meeting the sharp weapons attacking from all directions.

The sound of metal clashing rang in my ears.

Many of the attacking sharp weapons were bounced away, and the elite ghost generals were pierced through by the same method they used to attack them.

"Ahhhhhhhhh..."

The previous fierce shouts and screams turned into continuous screams.

"You can't kill me."

Black mist oozed out of the pierced wound, and several identical hoarse and unpleasant sounds came out from the black mist.

These robbers who were wreaking havoc in the solitary garden were actually all incarnations of this strange black fog.

Not only can he see through his opponent's weaknesses and transform into the form of his natural enemy, he is also almost immortal. No matter how his incarnation is attacked, he can simply turn into black mist and return to his original state.

This is not some kind of ghost from the underworld.

It is clearly the demon among the four kinds of monsters, demons, and goblins.

There are internal and external demons. External demons come from outside the sky and are outside the bodies of all living beings. If a practitioner slacks off for a moment, external demons will come uninvited. In the best case, the practitioner's cultivation will decline, and in the worst case, the external demons will take over the body and fall into the path of demons.

The inner demon is born from the inner distracting thoughts. Emotions such as anxiety, anger, greed, etc. may trigger the inner demon.

Therefore, in order to isolate the three poisons of greed, anger and ignorance, Buddhism has five precepts, eight precepts, and even ten precepts.

The Tao Te Ching also has the description that "the five colors make people blind; the five sounds make people deaf; the five flavors make people's mouths refreshing; hunting makes people crazy; hard-to-find goods hinder people's actions. Therefore, the sage is for the belly, not for the eyes, so he gives up the former and takes the latter. "

Inner demons come from inside to outside, and outer demons come from outside to inside.

The robbers who are currently wreaking havoc in the lonely garden are actually from the foreign demons.

As for who brought this foreign demon, Su Su didn't need to think too much, he knew it must have come from the goddess of the underworld, Jinse, who was banished for her crimes and voluntarily went down to the underworld to build the Orphan Garden and adopt the ghosts of the Nine Netherworlds who died without return.

The trouble should end it.

Without finding Jinse, there is no way to eliminate the foreign demons that are wreaking havoc in the lonely garden.

"I can't kill you? But I don't need to kill you!"

Seeing that many incarnations of foreign demons were attracted by him, the wronged souls of those who died in the Solitary Garden and the servants who worked for the Solitary Garden almost all fled. Su Su used a huge amount of exorcism power to bless the soul-beating ruler, and the one-foot square soul-beating ruler instantly turned into a giant pillar.

Raise your hand and throw it.

Countless cinnabar, lightning, fire and smoke screens accompanied by the soul-slaying ruler transformed into a giant pillar that swept across half of the Geigu Garden.

The rioting robbers who were incarnations of external demons were all smashed to pieces by the Soul-Beating Ruler, and dispersed into black mist for Su Su to suppress under the Soul-Beating Ruler. The falling cinnabar, thunder and fire smoke continued to suppress the diffused black mist, making it difficult for them to escape in a short time.

Upon seeing this, Su Su took a step forward and hurriedly flew towards the lobby in Geigu Garden, which was decorated with carved beams and painted buildings and was filled with lanterns.

However, at this time, the pavilions and towers that should have been lined up with lush flowers and plants were engulfed in flames and were almost burned to ruins.

Fortunately, there was a servant whose ghost body was illusory and almost disappeared hiding in a dark corner of the backyard. Su Su used a few wisps of incense and prayer power to stabilize his ghost body that was about to disappear. After asking, he learned that Jinse and Chunyan had already escaped from Gegu Garden before the backyard caught fire.

Following the direction indicated by the servant, Su Su climbed over the wall and soon found Jinse and Chunyan hiding in a corner of a house that housed the souls of people who had died unjustly.

The last time I saw her, Jinse was wearing a golden and red palace skirt, cloud-like hair and phoenix hairpins. She was so elegant and graceful that people could hardly look at her directly. Now she was curled up in the corner of the house, with only a thin gauze dress draped over her. Her underwear was vaguely visible. Her spring light was suddenly exposed, and her face was filled with panic and her delicate posture made her look somewhat pitiful.

"What is going on? Why is Geigu Garden being disturbed by evil spirits?" Su Su asked anxiously.

Jinse raised her head with tears in her eyes and answered, "I committed a crime and was demoted. I volunteered to live in the underworld to adopt wronged souls to atone for my sins. However, I didn't expect that the underworld would become more turbulent day by day, and the calamity of the devil would come early. I was caught off guard and suffered this disaster. I really don't know what to do."

It turned out that the foreign demon that was causing chaos in the lonely garden was brought by Jinse.

But seeing Chunyan standing beside him also looking pale and extremely panicked, Su Su couldn't help feeling a little guilty.

The most turbulent situation in the underworld right now is King Yama's attack on Lord Black Mountain. She was the one who instigated this event. It can be said that she is somewhat responsible for causing Jinse's demonic calamity to come early.

"How should we deal with the demon that is wreaking havoc in the lonely garden?" Su Su asked again.

Jinse just shook her head, obviously having no idea what to do about it.

After a while, perhaps realizing that he shouldn't be too cowardly, he whispered, "This kind of disaster cannot be overcome by force. When daybreak comes, the demons will retreat."

At this moment.

Jinse's halo as the Queen of the Underworld, which made people dare not look directly at her, shattered into pieces in Su Su's eyes.

Chapter 135 Counterattack

The demon that was wreaking havoc in Geigu Garden was led by Jinse. Since she said that he was invincible, Su Su had no choice but to let it go.

It is just past the hour of Chou and there is still some time before dawn.

With the servants and the souls of the wronged dead in the lonely garden fleeing in all directions, Jinse and Chunyan, who were hiding in the corner of the house, would inevitably be found by the demon, so the top priority was to find a relatively safe hiding place for them so that they could survive the period before dawn.

"The Queen said that we only need to wait until dawn, and the demons will retreat. So is there a hiding place near the lonely garden to avoid the demons?"

Su Su raised her eyes and looked at the small half of the Geigu Garden that she had previously razed to the ground with the Soul-Slaying Ruler. She saw that the demon that had been suppressed under the Soul-Slaying Ruler had turned into black mist and was becoming more and more restless, and was about to break the seal.

There is not much time left for Jinse and Chunyan to come up with a way to escape.

"There is a deep valley three miles north of Geigu Garden where we can hide and take refuge." Jinse replied.

As the words fell.

The black fog that was suppressed by the soul-beating ruler swept out, rushing in the fire cloud of the cinnabar thunder and fire smoke screen, making a sharp roar. Soon, it broke through the suppression of the cinnabar thunder and fire smoke screen, knocked down houses in Ge Gu Garden, and flattened the courtyard, as if to find Su Fu and others hiding in Ge Gu Garden.

In no time.

The raging flames that affected many houses in Geigu Garden spread to the house where Jinse and Chunyan were hiding.

"The situation is urgent. We have to leave Geguyuan as soon as possible."

Seeing that the Soul-Beating Ruler had completely dissipated after the Heavenly Demon had exhausted its power, Su Fu looked at Jinse, who had been slow to move, and urged her to move.

Although the other party heard the hidden meaning in Su Su's words, he still did not stand up. Instead, he stammered, "I... really can't walk anymore!"

Ah this.

Su Fu was very surprised when he heard Jinse say that she couldn't walk.

You, a fairy who was banished to the underworld and adopted wandering ghosts, are too... delicate and frail.

"As a ghost, I am powerless to help Your Majesty in walking and traveling. I am truly useless." Chunyan, who was pale and looked gloomy.

Even a cultivator walking with his soul out of his body would find it difficult to lift heavy objects, let alone a ghostly and ethereal creature like Chunyan.

Seeing Jinse looking so weak, perhaps her legs were so soft that she couldn't stand. Su Su thought that she was somewhat responsible for Jinse's disaster coming early, so she had to step forward and carry Jinse on her back, then grabbed the panicked Chunyan.

Mobilize the power of Yang Shen and escape directly into the underground.

After identifying the direction, he headed straight for the deep valley in the mountains to the north of Gegu Garden.

The Geigu Garden, enveloped by billowing flames, gradually moved away in Su Su's perception, and only two or three miles away was within reach in the blink of an eye.

But just when she was about to escape from the ground, the black fog that was the incarnation of the devil appeared in the valley without warning, and condensed its ferocious claws to suddenly grab Su Fu who had just poked his head out from the ground.

"Wasn't this demon wreaking havoc in the lonely garden just now? How come he ran faster than us in the blink of an eye?"

The movement of escaping from the ground suddenly stopped, and Jinse, who was only wearing a light gauze undergarment, was unexpectedly bumped into on the back. Su Su only felt something soft being bounced back from behind. Of course, she knew what was going on, but in an emergency, it was normal for both parties to have physical contact.

He calmed his expression, avoided the ferocious claws of the demon, turned around and fled quickly to the south.

"The Heavenly Demon Tribulation was triggered by myself. He can sense my movements. If he had hidden in the deep valleys of the mountains and restrained his aura before breaking the seal, he would be nowhere to be found. But it is a little too late now."
