The desolate desert, the endless wind and sand, and some shriveled animal carcasses exposed on the surface, clearly indicate that this place is lifeless.
Three ghost prisoners were gathered together, sharing a third-grade Yin Qi block.
One of the elderly ghost prisoners, after taking the drug, said to the other two ghost prisoners: "Hey, have you heard that a powerful monk came from the Hongyun Ghost King, and it is said that he has arranged a large-scale Yin gathering
Formation, now the ghosts there no longer have to worry about insufficient Yin Qi blocks."
"Haha... I'm afraid you are bluffing? Why would a monk come to a place like this?"
"That is, even if you are really a monk, you can only come after becoming a ghost. How can you come with a physical body?"
Both ghost prisoners expressed disbelief. One of them did not want to hear the elderly ghost prisoner continue to "make nonsense", but picked up the remaining one-third of the Yin Qi block and inhaled it.
"Oh, why don't you believe it? If you don't believe it, ask other ghosts. When I went to get the Yin Qi block yesterday, after the Hongyun Ghost King took away his due share, there was only one hundred third-grade Yin Qi blocks left.
There was no competition at all.”
"Really or not?"
"Of course it's true. If you don't believe me, just ask..."
five days later
Tuntian Hall
A plump man sat on a golden chair, and below him stood two big ghosts in gold and silver armor.
He said: "Why have so many of my ghost prisoners disappeared recently? I remember that we have distributed enough Yin Qi blocks. Could it be that they were greedy by you two?"
As he said that, the man's eyes became a little unkind.
The two big ghosts in gold and silver armor were frightened when they heard this, and they all fell to their knees with a thud.
"The Ghost King is unjust. It's not that we are greedy for the Yin Qi block, but it is said that the Hongyun Ghost King has come to the master, and he is causing trouble..."
The silver-armored ghost said tremblingly, and deliberately emphasized the word "人" in "Expert".
"Oh? Master? Please tell me carefully..."
The same scene happened at the Ghost King in Purgatory.
But the situation there was even more serious. In just three days, nearly half of the ghost prisoners had left.
Therefore, the Purgatory Ghost King arrived at Tiantian City overnight and met with the Tiantian Ghost King.
....
Hongyun City
Ren Xiaofan was currently practicing swordsmanship on the martial arts field in his residence, while Xiao Yao was sitting on the edge, watching with big eyes without blinking.
Something has been wrong with the little girl recently. She often stares at the sky in a daze, blushes and laughs foolishly from time to time.
Just like now, Ren Xiaofan was in front of her, but the little girl still didn't respond.
"Hey! What are you thinking about? Do you miss your lady again?"
Hongyun Ghost King is really considerate. He knows that he is not suitable for staying here, so he specially sent Xiao Yao here to "relieve his boredom" with him.
"Ah? Oh oh oh, yes." The little girl was obviously not good at lying. When she said this, her eyes were panicked and her face was dyed red.
However, Ren Xiaofan did not expose her, but said: "Then I will send you back to prevent you from getting hysteria."
Hysteria includes many things, but it mainly refers to mental illness. This disease also existed in ancient times. If the little girl gets it because she has been away from the Hongyun Ghost King for a long time, it will not be good.
However, Xiao Yao quickly shook his cerebellum

Bao: "No, I'm very good. Besides, I haven't completed the task assigned to me by the lady, so I can't leave."
I didn't complete the task that the lady gave me. She didn't know how many times she had said this, but every time Ren Xiaofan asked, she would hesitate and prevaricate.
Therefore, Ren Xiaofan didn't say anything to her, but turned around and went back to his room.
However, there was a small tail following behind him.
Because there have been many ghost prisoners who have taken refuge recently, the original venue is a bit insufficient. Therefore, Ren Xiaofan plans to expand the array, preferably to include some surrounding houses.
To do so requires a large number of formation flags and a larger formation flag of the Yin Gathering Formation.
Understanding unfamiliar and difficult runes is not Ren Xiaofan's strong point. But fortunately, Xiao Yao is here and helps a lot.
"Hey, Miss Yao, your lady must have come from a wealthy family, right?" After drawing a few formation flags, Ren Xiaofan asked Xiao Yao curiously.
In ancient times, it was a virtue for a woman not to have talent. Therefore, most women from other families were illiterate, even girls from rich families.
However, Xiao Yao is different in every way. In addition to her superb swordsmanship, she can also read words. It is not an exaggeration to say that she is versatile in both civil and military arts.
Xiao Yao's hand trembling as he arranged the formation flags, but he didn't say anything, but his expression became a little strange.
"What's wrong?" Ren Xiaofan was a little confused.
I didn't ask how she died, I just asked about her origins. This shouldn't be a taboo, right?
"No...it's okay." Xiao Yao shook his head and continued to fold the formation flags he had just drawn and put them together.
Seeing her reaction like this, Ren Xiaofan didn't ask, sighed, and planned to continue drawing the formation flag.
"Actually... we are not a wealthy family."
However, just when Ren Xiaofan gathered his energy, Xiao Yao suddenly spoke in a low voice.
Ren Xiaofan looked at her and heard her continue: "Our lady is a princess of a country. Because she was dissatisfied with the marriage promised by the lord of the country, she took Sister Chunnuan and me to escape from the palace. But who knew we met a bandit on the way, and then
Just...and then..."
When it comes to this, the little girl is a little embarrassed to say it.
Ren Xiaofan sighed in his heart.
I really didn’t expect that this Hongyun Ghost King was actually the princess of a country, and her fate was so miserable...
Looking at the little girl in front of him, Ren Xiaofan felt a pain in his heart.
Therefore, he couldn't help but stretched out his hand and patted the little girl's shoulder, "Well, if you don't want to say it, just don't say it. From now on, just call me Brother Xiaofan. As long as I'm here, I won't let anyone harm you."
What a beautiful age, how cute and beautiful... He sighed again in his heart, and thought of the charming eyes of Hongyun Ghost King. Ren Xiaofan only thought in his heart: What a pity, what a pity...
Xiao Yao did not dodge and let Ren Xiaofan pat his shoulder.
However, she turned her head with some confusion, looked at Ren Xiaofan and asked: "Infringement? What kind of violation?"
"Huh? Infringement, didn't you say that? You met bandits, and then you were killed by...what?" Ren Xiaofan replied instinctively.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, a cold light flashed in front of his eyes.
Ren Xiaofan was startled and instinctively stepped back, narrowly dodging Xiao Yao's angry sword.
"You're such a scoundrel, you've wronged me...I...like you so much. Your thoughts are so dirty, I, I'll kill you right now!"
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Before Ren Xiaofan could ask her what she was doing, Xiao Yao moved her sword again and stabbed him...
In fact, Ren Xiaofan felt that he really couldn't blame himself for this matter.
You said that the three of you, the master and the servant, are so good-looking, and then you encounter a bandit who looks like a hungry wolf. You don’t have to guess, it’s going to be very dangerous. Maybe even the body will not be spared after death... He
I think it’s okay to think so.
"Listen carefully, after we met the bandits, we were not insulted. Instead, we jumped into the river and committed suicide together. Do you understand?" Xiao Yao explained bitterly while attacking Ren Xiaofan.
Her swordsmanship was clever, and her moves went straight to Ren Xiaofan's vital points, which showed that she was extremely angry.
It's no wonder that women in ancient times valued their chastity. If you don't talk about others, just talk about your own senior sister. Isn't it also true that when you say chop off someone's head, just chop off someone's head?
Thinking of Xue Wanqing, and then looking at Xiao Yao who stabbed him with a sword, Ren Xiaofan immediately stopped avoiding it, and instead opened his hands and stood on the spot.
Gan! Isn’t it just a sword? Brother, I can bear it.
"Don't!"
Seeing Ren Xiaofan suddenly opening his chest to him without moving, Xiao Yao panicked. He tried to put his sword back but was too late, so he could only move the sword to the side.
Phew!
The tip of the sword penetrated the body. Although not much was penetrated, it still made Ren Xiaofan grin in pain.
"Why don't you hide, why don't you hide..." Xiao Yao's voice was trembling, and she said she wanted to kill Ren Xiaofan, but when she actually stabbed the sword into Ren Xiaofan's body, she didn't dare.
He let go of the hilt of the sword and stepped back as he spoke, his eyes full of panic.
puff!
Ren Xiaofan pulled out the sword. Although it hurt a lot, he was not seriously injured. If he used Tao Qi, he would probably be able to recover in a while.
However, he knew that he was fine, but Xiao Yao did not know.
Seeing Ren Xiaofan pull out the sword with a painful look on his face and spurting out blood, Xiao Yao immediately stopped retreating and quickly stepped forward to support Ren Xiaofan.
"I'm sorry... I'm sorry, I didn't mean to do it. Are you... okay?"
The little girl was upset, and she was just impulsive. If she really wanted to be like this, she wouldn't be willing to even hurt Ren Xiaofan, let alone kill him.
Ren Xiaofan shook his head and stretched out his hand to push her away, "Little Miss Yao, don't worry. I did think wrongly just now and insulted the girl mentally. I will repay you with this sword."
His tone was extremely calm, completely opposite to when he said "call me Brother Xiaofan from now on".
This strange feeling made Xiao Yao feel extremely painful. It was as if the sword was not stabbing Ren Xiaofan's chest, but his own body...
"Bad...bad guy." She wanted to say something, but when she looked at Ren Xiaofan's indifferent expression, she found that her mind was blank.
She once read in a book that the love between a man and a woman can make people forget about tea and food. She still didn't understand it. But now, she has completely realized it.
Silently, red tears welled up from Xiao Yao's eyes, and finally fell to the ground, forming bright blood flowers.
It turns out that when a ghost is extremely sad, what he sheds is not tears, but blood...
"Um...Xiao Yao, are you okay?"
Although Ren Xiaofan was very angry after being stabbed with a sword, the swordman was bleeding and crying, and he began to feel unbearable in his heart.
