Chapter 201 Haunted ([-])

On the way to the guest room, Housekeeper Zhao had been leading the way for the three of them.

Along the way, Steward Zhao kept apologizing to Jiang Yuan:

"There are too many things tonight and the greeting is not good. Please forgive me, three distinguished guests!"

A quiet small courtyard appeared in sight, and two maidservants at the gate of the small courtyard were bowing to several people.

Here is also the guest room where the three of Jiang Yuan stayed.

When he came to the gate of the small courtyard, Jiang Yuan turned around and asked Butler Zhao:

"The three people who entered Wubao earlier, do they also live near here?"

Butler Zhao shook his head:
"Wubao often entertains people from the rivers and lakes. Among the guests who run in this area, it is inevitable that there will be some grievances and frictions on weekdays. Therefore, in order to avoid conflicts between the guests because of meeting, Wubao has guest rooms in the four corners of the southeast, north and south. The guests also lived separately. The three guests who entered earlier lived in the guest room on the south side."

Jiang Yuan nodded:
"We are going to rest, butler Zhao, please take the maidservants down."

Housekeeper Zhao immediately resigned and took away the two maidservants at the gate of the small courtyard.

The three of Jiang Yuan stepped into the small courtyard, and there were three exquisite houses in the courtyard, which happened to be for the three of them to live in.

Han Chao asked:
"Master, I always feel that things are not right tonight. Or we--"

Jiang Yuan waved his hand to interrupt Han Chao, and at the same time turned his head to Han Chao and Yuan He with a mysterious smile and said:

"Don't worry about anything, just sleep well."

Han Chao and Yuan He looked at each other, not understanding what Jiang Yuan meant.

However, they still clenched their fists at Jiang Yuan tactfully, and then each entered a room to rest.

Jiang Yuan came to the middle house alone, and closed the door after entering.

There were no candles lit in the dark room, Jiang Yuan sat quietly on the chair alone, thoughtful in his eyes:
"The Lan family, please ghosts, and Du Yuan. I'm really too lazy to play hide-and-seek word puzzles with you, so I'll solve them all at once!"

Although the guest room in the small courtyard was quiet, Jiang Yuan's keen ears could still clearly hear the movement in Wubao.

There are the footsteps of servants patrolling in the Wubao, the guards chatting on the watchtower and the watchtower, the maids and servant girls who are also talking privately in the boudoir, and there are some sounds in the distance.

After he took off the water bag at his waist and pulled out the plug, two ghost figures slowly appeared in the darkness.

Jiang Yuan looked at the ghost in the darkness with satisfaction:

"Who should we deal with first? Just the three Lan family children. If you see a member of the Lan family, I will kill one!"

The corner of his mouth curled up into a ferocious smile in the darkness, and thick black mist suddenly appeared around his body.

The black mist soon filled the entire house, and what was strange was that the black mist actually penetrated the walls and roof while wriggling, and began to drift out of the house.

If someone looked down at Gengjiabao from a high altitude at this time, they would find a dense black mist spreading rapidly in the guest rooms in the small courtyard in the east corner of Pangjiabao.Wherever the black mist passed, no matter if it was a living person or a domestic animal, after the black mist covered them, they all paled and fainted instantly, and all human voices were silenced.

The dense black mist spread rapidly, and in a blink of an eye, the entire southeast of Gengjiabao was as if soaked in black ink.The black mist didn't stop, and squirmed towards the entire Gengjiabao.

On the other side of Gengjiabao, a group of people walked quickly in Wubao holding torches.

Most of the people in this group were family guards holding sharp knives and torches. They surrounded Geng Mingchuan, Geng Jia and Du Yuan, as if they were looking for something.

Geng Jia has been staring at the quaint copper compass in his hand:
"After staying away from that guy, the cathode compass seems to be better, and the pointer doesn't always point in one direction, Master. Is the current state of the cathode compass good or bad?"

In Du Yuan's blind eyes, there is no wave in the ancient well:
"The cathode compass has never been broken."

"Ah?" Geng Jia asked suspiciously, "Then why did you say it was broken when we were eating just now? If it wasn't broken, then that guy is a ghost?!"

Listening to his daughter's words, Geng Mingchuan said in surprise:

"Xiao Jia, do you mean the young son by 'that guy'?"

Geng Jia nodded, her pretty face turned cold:
"I knew that guy was definitely not a living person! Master, why didn't you expose his true colors just now and destroy him?"

Du Yuan sighed and said:

"Disciple, you have been guarding your teacher all these years, so you are inevitably too arrogant and impetuous. Although I am blind, my ears are not deaf. I can hear that young master's breathing and heartbeat clearly. He won't It's a demon."

Geng Mingchuan also hurriedly nodded and said:

"That's right, that young master has been with me during the day, he is not afraid of the sun."

Geng Jia was puzzled when he heard this:
"Then why does the cathode compass keep pointing to him?"

Du Yuan's expression changed slightly:

"That's because he has a ghost with him, and... that ghost is the cannibal ghost we found in Dan City!"

When he heard the cannibal ghost, not only Geng Mingchuan's face changed slightly, but even the guards around him showed panic.

Geng Jia frowned:
"Living people are with demons and ghosts? Who the hell is he? Since there are cannibals and fierce ghosts, why don't we subdue demons and ghosts?"

Du Yuan shook his head:
"I once heard that there is a kind of people in this world who can drive demons and ghosts. Their organization is called the 'Wing Cult'. If I guessed correctly, that young man is a member of the Yi Cult, and those two ogre ghosts are his. Ghost servant. Since the young master has not revealed his identity and has not changed anything, we had better not provoke him. The people of the Yijiao are so evil that even a few big princes and aristocratic families can't completely eradicate them all the time, and we may not be his opponent."

Geng Jia's face was full of reconciliation when he heard this, but he didn't say anything more.

On the contrary, Geng Mingchuan strongly agrees:
"That's right! One more thing is worse than one less thing. No matter whether the young master is from Yijiao or not, since he is here as a guest, we can just eat and drink well. He is not rude, and we don't want to offend him. .”

Du Yuan continued to ask:
"Teacher, where is the cathode compass pointing now? The most urgent thing is to get rid of the ghosts invited in the castle."

As soon as Geng Jia heard that ghosts were going to be exorcised, Geng Jia immediately became excited, and she hurriedly lowered her head to look at the copper compass in her hand:
"Master, that ghost has been moving between the east and the north. If we get closer to it, I can use Xihe fruit to force it to appear! Eh, what is this?"

While Geng Jia was talking, he suddenly noticed a layer of black mist surrounding him at some point.

She stretched out her tender hand to wipe away the gradually spreading black mist, but the black mist seemed to be suddenly attracted by something, and kept penetrating from the skin in her palm.

This made Geng Jia startled, but then something strange started to appear all over his body:
"It's so cold. It's so uncomfortable."

At this time, there was a sudden noise around him.

Geng Jia turned his head to look, but saw the accompanying family guards collapsed on the ground one after another, even Geng Mingchuan was not spared.Their faces were pale and their eyes were closed tightly, apparently in a coma.

"father!"

Geng Jia yelled, and was about to reach out to help.

But she staggered and almost failed to stand still.

"Hold your breath!" Du Yuan seemed to have noticed something strange, "No! It's useless to hold your breath! Disciple, come here!"

As he spoke, Du Yuan stretched out his skinny hand like a bamboo pole, and grasped Geng Jia's arm precisely.

Then a power of inheritance spread from Du Yuan's hand, extending along Geng Jia's arm to her body, continuously dispelling the black mist pouring into her body.

This time, Geng Jia's face turned slightly rosy, and she asked weakly:

"Master, what's going on here?"

Du Yuan's face was very ugly:
"Such a strong evil spirit is caused by a powerful ghost! The power of that ghost is beyond my ability to deal with. We have to escape from this place as soon as possible. I'm afraid Gengjiabao will be doomed tonight."

Black mist has enveloped the surroundings, and it is already impossible to see things three steps away.After that, more black mist poured in, and even if you stretched out your hand in the black mist, you couldn't see your fingers.

Geng Jia looked at the surrounding black mist in horror, and begged bitterly:

"Master, please save my father! I have been separated from him for ten years, and we are finally reunited today"

Du Yuan nodded, there seemed to be a huge power in his skinny arms, he quickly grabbed Geng Mingchuan who was unconscious on the ground and resisted on his shoulders, and also entered his body with the power of inheritance.

Then Du Yuan felt the surrounding environment with his memory, ears and nose, and led Geng Jia to leave quickly in this blind environment.

Geng Jia kept looking back at Gengjiabao, which was shrouded in black mist. This was her home, and she finally returned after ten years away. Could it be that it was really going to be destroyed in one night?

In the south corner of Gengjiabao, there is also a small courtyard guest room for guests to stay in, where the three children of the Lan family lived.

At this time, the three of them gathered in a brightly lit room. The seriously injured boy from the Lan family was still lying unconscious on the bed, while another woman washed him with a towel dipped in clean water from a copper basin. Wound.

After cleaning for a while, the woman sighed and said:

"Those ghosts are too vicious! The evil energy is condensed in Lan An's three important positions. If the evil energy is eliminated rashly, Lan An will become a useless person. Only when he returns to the family can he seek help from experts."

The remaining man looked at everything coldly and said:
"If it doesn't work, we have to give up Lan An. His appearance will drag us down."

The woman got annoyed when she heard the words, but then she could only breathe out. Although this suggestion was helpless, it was the right choice.

The man hesitated for a moment and asked:

"Lanshu, by helping the living people in Gengjiabao, can we really escape smoothly?"

The woman called Lan Shu had a cold look in her eyes, and she said:
"Dogs can't stop eating shit, and ghosts can't change eating people. When they see living people, they can't suppress their desires. In this dark night, if there are no living people from Gengjiabao to cover us, we can't escape those people at all." The pursuit of ghosts."

The man couldn't help showing anger when he heard the words:

"The five ghosts are deceiving people too much! We are about to dig out the fragments, and they dare to attack at night and kill so many people in my Lan family! After we go back, we must report to the king, and ask the king to send troops to kill the people who are entrenched in Wei County. The five ghosts, dao and ghosts will all be wiped out!"

Lan Shu hated men's complaints so much, she said in a deep voice:
"Lan Li, don't talk such useless nonsense! Listen to the movement outside, and when the demons chasing us start to prey on the living Gengjiabao, I will seize the opportunity to escape while taking advantage of the chaos."

The man named Lan Li was taught a lesson by Lan Shu. Just as he was about to get angry, he was full of doubts:
"Strange. Why is it suddenly so quiet outside?"
