Chapter 37: Encountering Dark Troops on the Road

  I also followed the sunglasses guy and started looking around, but nothing was found.

  "Little Ruo, didn't you get the wrong impression? In the Hundred Ghosts Night Parade, it's either all fierce ghosts or all gentle ghosts. Obviously, this is the latter, so how could there be extremely evil guys?"

  Xiao Rou shook her head and said to us, "This Bagua plate won't go wrong, the way it rotated just now was already very obvious, and those few tornadoes were so eerie."

  "That's right, it's really weird!" I also said.

  "You're clueless, aren't you?" The sunglasses guy teased me again.

  "Alright, Chen Sheng, stop messing around. The Bagua plate didn't move during the Hundred Ghosts Night Walk, but it moved after those few tornadoes just now. This proves that the ghost power of this thing should account for all the ghosts." Xiao Rou's words were still gentle, but her worried expression deepened.

  "Could it be a ghost?" said the sunglasses hero in surprise.

  Although it is unknown what the ghost in his mouth will be, from the expressions of these two people, it can be felt that this thing should have reached a certain level of severity, otherwise, the sunglasses knight would not show such an expression.

  "Hmm..." "Hmm..." "Hmmm..."

  At this time, several tornadoes came again, directly rushing towards us. Xiaoyue immediately pulled the two of us to dodge to one side.

  The whirlwind, accompanied by dust and sand, swept past the market of the hundred ghosts, overturning everything they had set out, and then these ghosts gradually disappeared. The place that was just bustling with activity instantly became extremely desolate and cold.

  "What a big grievance! Let's retreat quickly." Little Rong pulled us two and started running in another direction.

  "Uh....""Uh......""Uh......"

  At this time, several rhythmic footsteps came over, and in an instant, the dust on the road surface was kicked up. In an instant, the distance of hundreds of meters around became blurred, fortunately I was wearing a pair of sunglasses, otherwise my eyes would have suffered greatly.

  I and the sunglasses man both involuntarily shielded Xiaorou under our bodies, at this time "Ka......" "Ka......" "Ka......" the sound of footsteps grew stronger.

  Xiao Rou broke free from our protection and said to Mo Jing Xia: "Chen Sheng, it's too late to run now. Quickly release the bees, eat away these dust, we're probably going to fight, this is really a ghost general."

  "Hmm!" The sunglasses-wearing hero nodded, pulling the two of us along behind him. From his sleeve, he released a gigantic, seemingly ethereal soul that shot towards the dusty ground and sucked up all the swirling dust in an instant.

  At this time, Xiao Rou didn't idle around either, but quickly started taking out talismans from her pocket and asked me to help arrange them on the ground.

  "Ka.....""Ka......""Ka....."At this time, the sound was getting louder and louder. I raised my head to take a look, and almost blinded my eyes. Several rows of soldiers wearing ancient armor and holding long spears appeared in front of us. The dust earlier was actually trampled out by these guys!

  "My goodness, what's going on?" The sunglasses hero was a bit stunned.

  "It's like a dark army borrowing a path, but what's different is that the resentment here is overwhelming, I reckon there are also ghost generals mixed in." Xiao Rou said while fiddling with her talismans.

  "Sunglasses Knight licked his lips and said: 'So what do we do now? We're not going to fight them head-on, are we?'"

  "Of course not, you take Xiaolong and hurry away, I'll summon the paper man to hold them off for a bit, we need to retreat from this place, or else even Ta will be trampled flat by them."

  While speaking, Xiao Rou has already started burning the talismans. Each talisman that burns out becomes a paper person. At the same time, she also lit an incense stick beside her!

  "Xiao Long, this yinbing is not as simple as I imagined. These things are all aggressive and different from the Hyakki Yakou earlier. You go first, I'll stay with Xiao Rou to hold them off for a bit." Mò Jìng Xiá's expression was serious at this time, without any hint of joking around.

  At that time, I felt a little uncomfortable in my heart and said to the sunglasses hero: "How can this be? Although I don't know magic, I can help with small things. You three have rescued me repeatedly, at critical moments I left, so am I still human? I won't leave, don't say more."

  To be honest, seeing these things appear, I'm quite scared. After all, I'm just an ordinary person, but let me go, I won't leave. Although the sunglasses knight likes to joke around, I know he's kind at heart, and Xiaoyu even more so - she's my lucky charm! If I were to leave now, it would be meaningless even if I stayed alive!

  "Alright, little dragon, you can stay. It's too late to leave now. Continue helping me burn this talisman. I want to disperse these Yin soldiers, their combined strength is too great. Brother Chen Sheng, come and help us." Little Rong said patiently to the two of us.

  I nodded along with the sunglasses hero, at this time the group of yin soldiers were only five or six meters away from us. The sunglasses hero quickly placed all the Gu on his body on the ground, probably about six or seven in total, and as soon as they were put down, all the lids were opened.

  Right after that, those huge souls and those bizarre insect-like things all charged towards the dark soldiers. Xiao Rou directly threw her Bagua plate into mid-air, holding a stick of incense in her hand and muttering incantations. As for me, I was continuously burning talismans!

  Can't help but admire the moths and souls that Mo Jingxia has raised, they are simply too powerful. Before even getting close to them, one would already be bitten by the insects or swallowed by those souls. He's really a hidden mastermind, don't know how many more tricks he has up his sleeve.

  Occasionally, the yin soldiers who slipped out would be blocked by a Bagua plate placed in mid-air by Xiao Rou. This Bagua plate would determine their position based on the yin soldiers' footsteps and emit a beam of light to kill them directly.

  And my talismans are getting fewer and fewer, with nearly a hundred paper men around me. What puzzles me is that these dark soldiers seem to be endless. I've swallowed batch after batch, bitten down batch after batch, but the number of dark soldiers hasn't decreased at all.

  "Xiao Rou, what should I do? These Gu are alive and I'm afraid they won't be able to hold on. What should I do?"

  "Brother Chen, you must hold on, we can't retreat now. No matter how many more troops they have, there's a limit to their numbers. We must hold on." Xiao Rou gave the Masked Swordsman confidence while looking over at me.

  "It's all burned out already, Xiaorou." I hastily replied, afraid of being late.

  "Hmm!" Xiao Rou nodded, jumped back, and clasped her hands together, summoning the paper men. At this moment, these ten paper men lined up in a row, holding hands and getting ready.

  "Bang......" At this moment, a dull explosion sound came over.

  Following the direction of the sound, I saw that it was the broken sunglasses of Mò Jìng Xiá. At that time, I was shocked!

  "Bang......""Bang......""Bang......." "Bang......" A few more sounds, and the Ink Glasses Hero's marbles all shattered on the ground.

  At that time, Mo Jing Xiu was also stunned and stood still for several seconds. Xiao Rou immediately went over to pull him back and shouted at the paper men: "Up!"

  These paper men heard Xiaorou's command and rushed towards the dark soldiers in unison.

  "Chen Sheng, are you okay?" asked Xiao Rou with concern.

  The Ink Glasses Hero's expression was solemn, he took off his glasses and said: "I'm fine, I just regret that this is the result of my half-life practice of Gu, it's actually so vulnerable to the Shadow Troops' passage, it's really embarrassing for me."

  "Brother Chen, calm down." Xiao Rou comforted him and then said to me, "Xiao Long, you watch over him, I have to bring out all my magic tricks to deal with this, these guys are more terrifying than I imagined."

  After saying that, Xiaorou followed the paper people and rushed forward. I was about to comfort Mo Jian Xiu, but saw an expression that almost broke my heart. That is, Mo Jian Xiu cried, although he didn't make a sound, I could still see it. Even feel his sorrow!

  "Shades Brother, are you okay?" I gently patted his shoulder.

  The sunglasses hero squeezed his eyes and said to me: "I'm fine, I can still hold on, it's just a pity about these insects."

  "You can continue practicing, don't be so sad!" I advised him again.

  "These things are the Gu and resentment I found after running through dozens of countries, how can they be so easy to practice?" The sunglasses man said these words without a hint of a smile, looking especially helpless. It's as if these were his life, but I seem to understand some of it too - such powerful Gu worms, how could they be so easily cultivated?
