The five people stopped and saw that such an altar appeared at an intersection that was supposed to be busy with traffic. It was really weird.
What is even more eerie and strange is that there is a scarlet coffin placed on the altar.
Seeing this, Jiang Wanwan pulled Xie Shuyan's sleeves and asked in confusion:
"Master, aren't altars in the human world used to offer sacrifices to gods? Why is there a coffin? Could it be that someone is using dead people as sacrifices?"
"Junior brother, weren't you in Yucheng before? Have you seen the people here offering sacrifices to the dead?"
Shen Mochen shook his head, "This is the first time I have seen this altar. When I left Yucheng, there was no altar here."
On the side, Xie Shuyan's cold face was a little more serious, and there was a hint of worry in his expression.
"It was an empty coffin, and no nails had been nailed on the coffin. I'm afraid the sacrifice used for sacrifice was not a dead person, but a living person."
Jiang Wanwan: "A living person? How can a living person be used as a sacrifice? Could it be that a living person is put into a coffin!"
After hearing Jiang Wanwan's words, Si Tong's expression changed slightly.
Just now, she recognized it as an altar at a glance, all because there were descriptions of altars in the novel.
And what Xie Shuyan said about using living people as sacrifices is correct, because in the book, the heroine Jiang Wanwan was put into a coffin and sacrificed to the evil ghost of ten thousand years.
This time she is going to play Jiang Wanwan's role, so this coffin is prepared for her.
When she thought that she would be nailed into a coffin soon, her scalp went numb and she felt a chill in her heart.
That's all, instead of just lying in the coffin for a while, for the magic stone, she could pretend she was lying in the arms of a puppy.
Ahem...no astringency allowed.
She retracted her thoughts and looked at Mu Jinnian. When she came, she had already given spoilers to her good teammates and arranged the plot. Now she was just waiting for him to set the pace.
Taking the hint, Mu Jinnian spoke at the right time, "Master, since this is an empty coffin, it means that the sacrifice has not begun yet.
Disciple thinks we can find a place to stay first so that we can get some news."
Xie Shuyan nodded and started teaching on the spot, "When a monk catches ghosts, he should choose the place where the Yin Qi is the strongest."
"You four still remember the spiritual power you unleashed for your master when you entered Yucheng just now."
Jiang Wanwan's eyes lit up and she answered first: "Disciple remembers that the spiritual power disappeared in the southeast, but it seemed to be absorbed by something. Master, can you clear up the confusion for me?"
When Si Tong heard this, he couldn't help but praise Jiang Wanwan. She is indeed a heroine. She can grasp the key points from details that others ignore.
A look of satisfaction appeared in Xie Shuyan's eyes.
"The Yin Qi is strongest in the southeast, and a spirit capturing array has been set up there. Once you reach the place, you are not allowed to use your spiritual power without authorization."
Jiang Wanwan: "Spirit-capturing array? No wonder the master's spiritual power was sucked away. It is actually a formation that absorbs the spiritual power of monks!"
"Disciple remembers that Professor Zhang said in class that the Soul Capturing Array is only for monks. If you use spiritual power in the array, not only will the spiritual power be sucked away, but you will also suffer the same counterattack."
"In this case, if Master uses magic to deal with evil spirits, wouldn't he be hurt by himself?"
Xie Shuyan looked calm and said calmly: "There is no need to use spiritual power to activate the natal magic weapon and magic weapon. What you need to do is to ensure your own safety."
"Master, don't worry, this disciple will not cause any trouble to the master."
"Um."
Xie Shuyan led the four people toward the southeast and stopped when they passed a house.
I saw red silk hanging on the plaque of the house, as if there was a happy event in the house.
Mu Jinnian stepped forward and knocked on the door. Soon after, a young man opened the door. When he saw the person for the first time, he froze on the spot.
"You, are you immortal masters?"
Mu Jinnian smiled and nodded, "We are here with our master to kill evil spirits. I wonder if we can stay in your mansion for a few days?"
The boy's eyes lit up. The immortal masters in front of him looked more powerful than the ones who came before. They might be able to save his young lady's life!
"Please come in quickly, some immortal masters. My master is the most hospitable. I will go and inform you."
After saying this, the boy ran towards the courtyard, and soon he and an old housekeeper came over quickly.
The old housekeeper looked at the people who came up and down, and when he saw that several of them looked like immortals, he said respectfully: "Please come in and invite the immortal masters. My master is waiting for the immortal masters in the front hall."
Xie Shuyan nodded slightly and went to the front hall under the guidance of the old housekeeper.
The strange thing is that I thought there was a happy event in the house, but along the way, I didn't see any red decorations related to the happy event.
There was a strange feeling in the whole house, and a gust of wind blew, as if a lonely ghost was roaring, which was creepy.
But the monk's hearing was very sensitive, and they immediately heard the sound mixed in the wind, which was actually the cry of a woman, but the woman's cry was a little more frightening.
"Butler, I wonder who in the house is crying?" Si Tong cut to the chase and began to follow the plot seriously. The words she asked were originally Jiang Wanwan's lines.
Old housekeeper: "Oh, you immortal masters don't know something. This is my young lady crying."
"My young lady has a miserable life. She will soon be sacrificed to the Ghost King, so she sheds tears."
"Marrying the Ghost King? Could it be that the coffin at the intersection is..."
Jiang Wanwan's eyes narrowed slightly. Master said that the coffin was used to hold living people. The old housekeeper also mentioned the Ghost King. It seems that the person who will be nailed into the coffin is probably the young lady of this family.

The old housekeeper shook his head and sighed, and continued to lead the way. When he came to the main hall and walked in, the people in the room immediately exploded.
