Chapter 48
After bidding farewell to Princess Yurou, he followed Nie Xiu and his party through the Yin-Yang Road in the Ghost City, Silent Pavilion, and walked northward.
When passing by the forest of hanging corpses full of lonely souls, I was too tired to walk, so I stopped to rest.
The vultures eating corpses in the forest were startled by the footsteps of their group, and they flapped their wings and flew away into the distance.
Finding the direction where the vultures were flying away, he looked towards the gaps in the densely packed corpses on his left.
Borrowing the bright moonlight, I actually saw the ghost king in red standing on the stone arch bridge not far away.
The ghost king held a sharp sword in his hand, and seemed to be pointing at something?
Strange in his heart, he secretly gathered spiritual power into his eyes, and then took a closer look, and saw a hand holding a jade flute next to the sharp sword held by the ghost king from the gap in the bridge railing.
From the hole of the flute, a large piece of thick black mist flew out, the black mist rose up, hovered in the air for a long time, and then dissipated by itself.
Afterwards, the flute held by that palm also slowly turned into a pile of golden powder, and handfuls of it were scattered with the wind.
Of course he recognized that flute, it was Gu Wanqing's magic flute.
In an instant, they all understood that the person who rescued him from here was not the Elder Qingyang that Nie Xiu was talking about, but Gu Wanqing, who he had been avoiding all this time, sacrificed the frightening magic flute that could command the creatures of the six worlds to save him. His.
Thousands of feelings rushed into his heart, and he was about to call Ah Wan, whom he hadn't called in a long time, but before the word "A" stuck in his throat, Nie Xiu suddenly said to him: "Immortal Venerable, if you want Don't I carry you?"
He suddenly came back to his senses, extremely embarrassed, in order to hide the panic in his heart, he just said in a low voice, "No need, as long as you leave the ghost market, you can walk with the sword."
The group of people finally got out of the ghost market after many twists and turns. He stopped at the exit of the ghost market again and stood there for a long time. The brightly lit ghost market suddenly went dark.
Seeing that the sky is about to dawn, the ghost market is about to disappear.
He looked back reluctantly at the ghost city that was completely pitch black, and said hard-heartedly, "Let's go!"
As soon as the sky turned pale, someone knocked on the door.
Shen Yan didn't close her eyes all night, her eyes were red, she raised her hand to straighten the collar of her crumpled underwear.
"Come in."
"Immortal Venerable," Nie Xiu pushed the door open and came in, hurriedly walked to his bed and clasped his hands together, "This morning, men, women and children in Phoenix Town gathered at the foot of the mountain, waiting to see the Immortal Venerable. It is said that Yu Wai, a member of Fenghuang Town, died not long ago. The tomb of my daughter Yu Xiuya has made strange noises recently, and the residents of Fenghuang Town have disappeared one after another. Now everyone is in danger, and they dare not even go out at night."
Hearing this, Shen Yan hurriedly prepared to get out of bed, but as soon as his leg moved, a piercing pain spread all over his body, his face turned pale instantly, and he said with great effort, "Take Ziqian to Fenghuang Town first. Find out about the situation, report to me as soon as you come back, and then arrange for Li Yao and others to strictly guard Fenghuang Town for the next few days. My legs will be fine for three to five days. Before that, without my order, you tell Li Yao and others, Don't act rashly."
"Immortal Venerable, you..." Nie Xiu looked at Shen Yan's suddenly pale face, and seemed a little worried.
"It's okay, Qinghuan is here."
"Yes, Immortal Venerable, that disciple will retire first." Nie Xiu took the order to retreat.
Shen Yan saw that the door was closed, quickly lifted the quilt, looked down at her legs, and saw that the knees of the white underwear had been stained red by oozing blood.
After a while, there was a knock on the door again, and he hurriedly pulled the quilt to cover his legs.
"Come in."
Xie Qinghuan carried a bowl of porridge, a plate of pickles, and two steamed buns on a vermilion wooden tray, and gently pushed the door open and walked in.
He carefully placed the plate on the round table in the center of the room, then with a flattering smile, he took the porridge and walked to Shenyan's bed and sat down, and said timidly: "The immortal must be... hungry?"
