The night was low and the alleyway was silent. The leaves of the French Parasol Tree on the side of the road rustled in the night wind. Seeing the pitch black path in front of him, Taoist Xuanqing's eyebrows creased deeper and deeper.
There was a corner to this alleyway, and the dense foliage blocked people's view. He had no way of knowing what was going on inside.
Taoist Xuanqing carefully walked to the mouth of the alleyway, leaned out slightly and peeked into the alleyway.
The alley was extremely spacious, and only the moonlight shone on the slightly shiny floor. Taoist Xuanqing hesitated for a while before raising his head to carefully look at this alley. If it was any other time, he would definitely chase after this alley with confidence and courage, but today was different.
After carefully observing the alley back and forth, Taoist Xuanqing did not discover any traces of movement, nor did he sense any strange aura or power.
They were afraid that Ning Huanyan would run too far because of them. When the Taoist Xuanqing realized that nothing was wrong, he started to walk towards the alleyway.
The more he walked forward, the faster Taoist Xuanqing felt his heart beating. He felt like he was walking into a trap. After pausing for a moment, Taoist Xuanqing's complexion changed greatly. His face, which had originally lost too much blood, now looked even more pale than before.
The alleyway was too quiet, so quiet it was as if there was no air flow. Before walking in, it felt windy, but after entering the alleyway, there was no feeling of the wind blowing on one's body. There was not even the sound of the wind blowing on the trees.
The most terrifying thing was that this alley was so long that he could barely make it. Before he came here, he had already estimated that the alley was only about 180 meters away. No matter how serious the wound on his leg was, with this much effort, he would probably be able to climb to the end of the alley!
"Could it be the Wall-Hitting Ghost?!" Taoist Xuanqing panicked, and this was the first thing he thought of.
The so-called "Wall-Hitting Ghost" referred to walking in the night or in the countryside. When walking, one could not tell one's direction, and one's self-perception was fuzzy. They did not know which direction to walk to, so they would always stay at the same place to walk in circles.
But when he thought about it carefully, the Taoist Xuanqing felt that it was impossible. The Wall-Hitting Ghost normally happened in some extremely desolate places in the countryside, and an international city like the Moyuz, how could something like this happen.
When the Taoist Xuanqing was young, he had gone to the mountains and villages to go through campaigns. At that time, he had heard many elderly people talk about these things and had even seen them with his own eyes.
"Could it be because I lost too much blood on my legs that I was hit by the evil charm while walking?!" After Taoist Xuanqing wiped the sweat on his forehead, he looked around with a panicked expression and muttered.
Although he should not be afraid of this sort of thing due to the appearance technique, it was merely the opinion of an outsider. In the field of being a grandmaster, the more one got into contact with something like this, the more one would feel a sense of respect towards the way of the ghosts and gods. Of course, this was not the case for someone like Lin Bai, who carried a treasure with him.
This Taoist Xuanqing technique was amazing, but he was still an ordinary person, so it was hard for him not to have some thoughts.
"It's the Wall-Hitting Ghost. Moreover, it's an old ghost with deep cultivation. Hehe."
Just as Taoist Xuanqing was suspecting something, a sharp female voice suddenly came out from beside him, which caused his scalp to go numb. Furthermore, the voice was very long, as if she was crying like a ghost in the middle of the night.
"Ox-nose, have you forgotten what happened that year?!" I'm here to take my life! " Before the wave of attacks subsided, the shrill female voice rang out again.
Taoist Xuanqing's expression changed greatly, perspiration rolled down his forehead, and the expression on his face looked extremely terrified. With a trembling voice, he looked towards the direction of the voice and said: "Didn't you understand what happened back then, why are you still following me around?
Taoist Xuanqing had just finished speaking the first half of his sentence, when he heard a burst of delicate laughter coming from outside. It sounded extremely familiar, but after thinking about it carefully, it was Ning Huanyan's laughter.
"Stinky nose, you never thought of it, did you? If you follow your grandaunt, you will get your fair share of benefits!" Seeing that the Taoist Xuanqing had seen through his identity, Ning Huanyan did not tease him anymore.
Taoist Xuanqing scolded loudly, but he was panicking in his heart. He discovered that he was actually unable to take care of the formation that the girl was unable to set up. If it was an ordinary formation, it would definitely be safe according to the route taken by the nine palaces and eight gates. However, this formation seemed to be different.
"Stupid girl, what spell did you use to trap me in this alleyway? Hurry up and let me out!" Taoist Xuanqing became more and more flustered and couldn't help but to raise his head and curse.
It had to be known that not everyone in this world possessed Innate Book like Lin Bai, who was extremely clear about the formation and effects of all the array formations. Even if they were the masters of a famous sect in the Taoist Xuanqing, they did not know everything, so it was understandable that they could not solve this array.
"I let you out. You followed me, your grandaunt, the entire way, so you won't suffer a little bit. How do you know how many eyes Prince Ma has? How can you possibly take revenge for my past grudge?" After Ning Huanyan heard what the Taoist Xuanqing said, he could not help but sneer.
Taoist Xuanqing said: "Stinking girl, as long as I free myself this time, I will never forgive you!"
"Then we'll just wait and see. Your stinky nose will continue to crack the array. Aunt, I won't accompany you!" The corners of Ning Huanyan's mouth curled up slightly as he ridiculed Taoist Xuanqing.
Taoist Xuanqing became angry from the embarrassment, and thinking back to what happened today, his heart became even more furious, and he scolded sternly: "Lin Bai! Ning Huanyan! As long as this old Taoist is still alive, all of you will be my enemies for the rest of my life.
No matter how much he cursed, there was no sound of anyone coming from outside. Taoist Xuanqing had no choice but to slowly remove the array.
He wanted to crack it, but how could it be so simple? The most exquisite way to arrange a formation was through layout. The Taoist Xuanqing was currently located in a place that had lost its eight gate binding arrays, and it was also aimed at a grandteacher. In addition to the hundred years of darkness energy accumulated in the alleyway, the effects and complexity were naturally much greater.
The night was getting darker, and the cold sweat on Taoist Xuanqing's body was getting more and more frequent. He was already injured, and after being blown around by the cold air and evil energy of the night, his expression became even more strained.
Time trickled by. After a long struggle, the Taoist Xuanqing finally broke free from the array.
When he came out to look at the sky, he could see the foggy white color of Taoist Xuanqing's face. The sun was about to appear, and the evil Yin Energy in the alleyway was gradually weakening. The power of the array formation was about to drop, and he was only able to find a flaw in it, otherwise he would probably have to be confined within the array formation for a few more hours.
After soothing his incomparably stiff body that was invaded by the night cold dew, Taoist Xuanqing swept his eyes across the alleyway, his face filled with hatred. Today's events could be said to be the most miserable experience the Taoist Xuanqing had in decades. From learning how to become a master and becoming increasingly proficient in the art of portraits, almost everyone was begging him, making him forget what failure was and how cold it was.
The poor are rich, dogs in leather pants. The rich were poor and the wind was biting cold.
Yesterday's torture made him extremely shocked. His originally neatly combed hair was now in disarray, and what was worse, was that his body was emitting a strong sour stench, he was old for a long time, and had been trapped in the array for a long time. As such, the smell on his body was naturally not good.
"Eight Gate Binding Formation, what a good plan, what a good idea. I never thought that my Taoist Xuanqing would actually be able to pull off a few consecutive somersaults in one day!" Taoist Xuanqing reached out to straighten the crown on his head as he muttered to himself with a dark expression.
Just as he finished speaking, Taoist Xuanqing suddenly discovered that there was a green black, viscous liquid at the location of his appearance. After staring at that thing for a long time, Taoist Xuanqing frowned. He walked to the front of the thing, bent down and picked up a thread to sniff it, his face suddenly changing.
"Whose blood is this, it's actually black and green, could it be Ning Huanyan's?!" Taoist Xuanqing's face revealed a heavy expression, after thinking for a while, he thought about how sickly he looked when he saw Ning Huanyan yesterday, and with a joyous expression, he said slowly.
The autumn tiger was raging. It was not even noon yet, and the pedestrians on the road were already sweating like rain. Many people's backs were even soaked in sweat. However, there was a pale-faced woman standing by the side of the road. However, there was not a single drop of sweat on her face. Furthermore, her face looked terrifyingly pale.
"Huaiyan, did you suffer the backlash of the pure Yin Qi again?" Ning Yang Ran looked at Ning Huanyan's green and white face with a pained expression, "Don't bother thinking anymore, after walking for an entire night, let's go back quickly!"
Ning Huanyan did not say anything, and slowly shook her head. She turned around and looked at the office building in front of him, her eyes filled with determination.
In Ning Huanyan's heart, the Taoist Xuanqing's methods would definitely not be the person who broke the Pure Yin Yang Repellent Formation that she had set up. Furthermore, this Taoist Xuanqing was injured yesterday, so from the look of his wounds, he was most likely injured by some sort of technique.
Is this Lin Bai an enemy or a friend? Ning Huanyan frowned, she stared at the signboard of Lin Bai's Feng Shui Consulting Company, her heart full of questions.
