Chapter 5: The Devil’s Den

Chapter 5: The Devil’s Den

A journey of thirteen days.

But Meng Fei was very tired.

It was the first time in their lives that they had walked such a long and long way. During this period, they even changed horses three times and donkeys twice...

"Phew! We're almost there. Grandpa and I are really exhausted."

Seeing Meng Fei panting, Gu Liu looked in disbelief.

"As a man who has not become a monk, how can he be so vain..."

Gu Liu's voice was not loud, but it was enough to reach Meng Fei's ears.

After feeling Meng Fei's murderous eyes, Gu Liu immediately changed his appearance, clasped his palms in front of his chest, and kept chanting the Taoist Sutra.

Seeing Meng Fei staring at him, Gu Liu looked like he just saw it, and then pretended to be puzzled and said: "What's wrong? Brother Meng Fei?"

"Fuck you!"

Following Meng Fei's curse, he kicked her again.

After releasing the evil spirit in his heart, Meng Fei looked at Huaicheng, which was very close to them, with relief.

However, after just one glance, he frowned tightly.

"Why is the weather in that city different from here?"

You know, they may only be a hundred steps away from Huaicheng now, but in Meng Fei's eyes, the sky above their heads is a red sun, and the weather is cloudless, which can only be said to be bright or not.

However, the city was covered with dark clouds and gray, as if there was a huge gray curtain covering the entire city. It even gave people an extremely depressing and uncomfortable feeling of being out of breath.

"Really?" Gu Liu stood up and walked to Meng Fei's side, looking at him the same way. However, in his eyes, nothing seemed to have changed.

There was a cloudless sunny sky above, and the sky above Huai City in front of them was the same, without any difference.

"Are you seeing it wrong? I don't see anything different?"

"No, I'm pretty sure that the weather in Huaicheng is definitely different!"

Meng Fei said firmly.

Seeing Meng Fei's determined performance, Gu Liu thought of what he had experienced before. This guy had a psychic body and an immortal body. It was said that he was more suitable to be a Taoist priest than him.

Gu Liu himself is a Taoist priest with mediocre talent in exorcism. He knows that what he can see is only the demons and ghosts themselves, but he cannot discover the things produced by them, such as ghost formations. He can only know them in his own knowledge. It exists, so Gu Liu understands that Meng Fei can also see what he can see, but he may not be able to see what Meng Fei can see.

In this case, Gu Liu planned to cast a spell to see the truth.

So, he took out two more talisman papers, pasted them one by one on his eyes, and kept pinching the seals with his hands.

"Tianzun, a true person, an emperor, a god, a flying immortal. The ultimate person in heaven and under heaven, lend me your divine power to open your heavenly eyes!"

As soon as Gu Liu's decree came out, the two talisman papers covering his eyes slowly appeared on each of them. Around those eyes, there was a strange white light. As soon as you open your eyes, all the illusions in this world will disappear and turn into nothing.

"This...this is...a ghost?!"

With the blessing of the Sky Eye, Gu Liu finally saw everything in Meng Fei's eyes.

But all of this made Gu Liu unable to believe that this was reality.

"Ghosts?" After hearing this word, Meng Fei on the side quickly thought of the ghost array he encountered before, but with such a scale covering the whole city, Meng Fei also realized the seriousness of the matter.

The talisman fell, and everything returned to false calm.

But Gu Liu, who had seen the truth, would not think that this calmness was normal.

"Brother Meng Fei, you don't know something. This ghost is a stronger form of the ghost array, defined by the number of layers. The difference between the two, to use a simple example, is that in the ghost array, you cannot Ghosts can't kill you, but in the ghost world, once you enter, they can kill you at will!"

After listening to Gu Liu's words, Meng Fei's back felt cold.

It's somewhat unbelievable that they would go to such a place to find someone in the future.

But the more important question is why Gu Liu's third senior brother, Master Baixiao, is in such a place where he can die at any time.

"Your senior brother won't..." Meng Fei looked at Gu Liu.

There was also a hint of worry on Gu Liu's face. He took out the life talisman with trembling hands. When he saw that it was still the same small piece as big as a knuckle, Gu Liu breathed a long sigh of relief.

"The life talisman is intact, which means that senior brother is fine. Moreover, what we can know is that we have traveled thirteen days, which means that third senior brother has been here for at least thirteen days, but nothing happened, so at least it can explain a little."

"This ghost is not aggressive!"

Meng Fei replied with enlightenment.

Gu Liu nodded in response, "That's right, but a ghost is always a ghost. I think the third senior brother must have seen something wrong here, so he entered it. What is there in this ghost?"

The road ahead is unknown, and the only thing they know is that it is definitely not a good road, a road worth taking.

But that is a path that must be taken, after all, the two of them are now in a dilemma.

Ahead are unknown ghosts, and behind are Yakshas who are chasing after them.

At this moment, they must make a choice.

"Enter the ghost!"

Meng Fei said firmly that this was the only way to survive at present. Although he was not afraid of death, sometimes, living was more painful than death, and he didn't want that to happen.

Regarding this choice, Gu Liu could only nod. They had no other options and this was the best way at the moment.

"It's not good at all. Ghosts can disturb our breath, which will create a problem for Yaksha. Going in can save us from this trouble. It's a blessing among misfortunes."

"That's really good, let's go!"

They left immediately. In such a situation, they were not allowed to have any hesitation.

Zhizhizhi...

Accompanied by an unpleasant sound of rotten wood breaking and tearing, the huge dilapidated city gate opened, and a cloud of dust immediately invaded the two of them.

As the dust dispersed, the two entered the ghost-shrouded city to find out what happened.

"Did you see it?"

"I saw it, there was a strange door."

"Where's the surrounding area?"

"Don't worry! Just go to the door!"

"Why?"

"That has the aura left by my third senior brother."

"You know all this?"

"Well, I'm the best at sensitivity and control of breath. I just want to find out something is wrong in time and run away!"

"..."

The straight road is a hundred steps away.

Not far from the two of them, there is a strange door standing there. If you look at it from the side, it looks like a wooden board nailed there. If you have to say there is something unusual about it, it is how could a door stand on the road? .

"etc!"

Suddenly, Gu Liu's words startled Meng Fei, who was already nervous.

"What the hell are you doing? You scared me to death!" Meng Fei's face was full of anger.

"Didn't you say you should ignore the surroundings?" Meng Fei looked at Gu Liu's actions of sniffing around in disbelief.

"It smells like wine!" Gu Liu's face showed a hint of excitement.

Meng Fei was speechless and scolded: "You donkey-faced Taoist priest! You are still an undisciplined thing?! Hurry up, don't take the trap and keep walking..."

His words were suddenly stopped, because just as Meng Fei turned his head, he found a pitiful woman in white gauze half-kneeling on the ground. The thin gauze made her beautiful body looming, and her two delicate hands were still holding her tightly. Holding Meng Fei's palm, the tenderness of the jade hand instantly spread throughout his body.

A numb feeling rushed directly to Meng Fei's head.

"My dear officer, my family is very cruel. Just because I accidentally dropped my clothes while hanging them, they beat me and scolded me severely and even kicked me out of the house. My dear officer, you will love me." Yes?"

As she spoke, the gauze woman leaned against Meng Fei's body with her fair and tender face, and gently stroked Meng Fei's body with her hands.

"Fuck you!"

However, in this situation, Meng Fei suddenly volleyed and kicked the gauze woman away.
