Ye Qing slowly opened his eyes, his mouth trembled slightly, but he couldn't say a word...
A ghost's face is originally bloodless, so even if it is weak, its face will not change in any way. However, one thing is that the weaker the soul power is, the closer the soul body will be to transparency.
Ye Qing was like this at this time. Her body was almost translucent now, so I immediately took out a soul-fixing charm and put it on her forehead to temporarily stabilize her soul, otherwise she might disappear at any time...
I took out a gloomy wooden box from my backpack. Although Ye Qing was weak, she understood what I meant. When I opened the lid of the box, she transformed into a ball of black energy and got into the wooden box.
"Let's go back to Yinhun Hall first." I said to Lao Yutou.
"Can't leave yet..."
"What's wrong?"
Lao Yu kicked the unconscious homeless man aside with his feet, went to the locust tree, looked at it for a moment, and said in deep thought:
"This old locust tree cannot be left alone. It is extremely yin-y. It can not only absorb the cultivation of ghosts, but also cannibalize the yang-qi of living people. If we leave it alone, it will become a spirit of evil cultivation in the future."
I paused for a moment, and felt that what Lao Yutou said made sense. The locust tree in front of me was originally the most yin thing, and it might have already refined many ghosts. It would indeed be a disaster to keep it.
Thinking of this, I lit a talisman fire without hesitation and burned the old locust tree...
After returning to Yinhun Hall, the sky was already slightly brighter. From yesterday until now, I have been dealing with various things almost non-stop. I feel very tired, but I don't dare to sleep now.
Ye Qing is now seriously injured, and this morning I made an appointment with a man with glasses. For the first time, I feel that I am a little powerless...
At this time, I suddenly missed Master...
Lao Yutou saw what I was thinking, came over, patted me on the shoulder and said:
"Xiaoyu, nothing happens overnight. This girl can slowly nourish her soul by staying in the gloomy wooden box. There is still time, so I will keep an eye on it for you. You can go and sleep for a while..."
On the way back to Yinhun Hall, I recounted what happened that day to Lao Yutou, so he understood me very well.
I glanced at Lao Yu gratefully, then lay on the bed and fell asleep...
I didn’t know how long I slept, but Old Yu woke me up. I looked at my phone and saw that the time I agreed with the man with glasses was coming soon. I went to the bathroom to wash up briefly, and then set off...
Forty minutes later, the taxi stopped in front of an antique teahouse. After getting off, I stood at the door and looked up...
"Yunhaixuan..."
I took a deep breath and stepped in.
Although the teahouse is not big, the decoration is very elegant. As soon as I entered the door, I heard the soft music of the guzheng and the faint fragrance of tea. I instantly felt like I had traveled through time. I don’t know how to describe that feeling. Anyway, it was very
Comfortable.
I couldn't help but stop and feel it. Just then, a beautiful woman wearing a cyan cheongsam came over.
"Are you Mr. Lin?"
I nodded.
"Mr. Yun has been waiting for you for a long time. Please come with me."
After saying that, the beauty led the way.
"Mr. Yun..."
I muttered something in a low voice, and then followed him calmly.
After passing through the elegant lobby, the beauty ushered me into a quiet tea room, where a gentle man wearing glasses was sitting at a light wooden table sipping tea.
"You go out first..." The man with glasses said to the beautiful woman.
The beauty bowed slightly and exited the tea room.
I sat unceremoniously opposite the man with glasses. Watching him slowly sipping tea, I felt a little anxious, so I said straight to the point:
"Do you already know my purpose of finding Wan Chen?"
"The two of us have interacted several times. Do you think this is strange?"
"Of course, you always seem to be able to guess what I want to do every time, and you always provide me with important clues at critical moments, so I'm curious who you are?"
The man with glasses adjusted his glasses frame and said with a smile:
"It doesn't matter who I am. What's important is that we have a common goal. As long as we have a common goal, we can become friends. The reason I gave you so many clues to help you before was just to show my sincerity."
.”
"common goal?"
I looked at him suspiciously and smiled,
"Friend? Haha, I don't even know what my goal is, how do you know it? I don't have time to gossip with you. I want to find someone now. If you can help me find it..."
As soon as I was halfway through my words, the man with glasses suddenly interrupted,
"I can help you find it, but you have to promise me one thing."
"What's going on?" I looked at him cautiously.
The man with glasses put away his trademark smile and became serious,
"Don't be nervous. It's not a big deal to you. It's just that I want to make a bet with you through this matter."
I was a little confused and urged him to finish what he said as soon as possible.
The man with glasses took out a piece of white paper and handed it over. I took it suspiciously. It still had the same address written on it.
"You go to this address. If you can find out what happened here and deal with it without using magic weapons, then you win, and I will help you find the person you are looking for. If
Not handled well…”
I frowned and looked at him, waiting for him to continue.
"If you can't handle it well, you should leave the Soul-Yearing Hall as soon as possible and completely disappear from Jiangcheng!"
"What?!"
I stood up suddenly and stared at the man with glasses. This guy just said he had a common goal with me, but now he wants me to disappear from Jiangcheng. What kind of medicine is he selling in his gourd?!
The man with glasses didn't dodge my gaze at all, and looked at me steadily.
"Why? Don't you dare?! The dignified disciple of Huo Qiansuan is actually a coward? Haha..."
My mind was racing. This bet was obviously unfair to me. The stakes were not equal at all!
"Haha... First you won't let me use the magic weapon. Then if I win, you will just help me find someone. But if I lose, I will disappear from Jiangcheng forever. Do you think I'm stupid?"
The man with glasses smiled slightly and asked:
"What do you want?"
"It's very simple. If I win, you will not only help me find that person, but you will also serve me and be my little brother. How about that? Do you dare?!"
I raised my eyebrows and looked at the man with glasses. The corners of his mouth twitched, and for the first time he showed a hesitant look on his face. It took him a long time to grit his teeth and utter a word,
"good!"
Seeing that he agreed, I didn't say much nonsense. I put the note away and stood up to leave. As soon as I walked to the door, I suddenly thought of something that had been bothering me for a long time, so I turned around and asked:
