When I was a Taoist

Chapter 29 The mind is blank

Seeing my depressed face, Mochizuki patted my shoulder and said with a smile: "Although we are in the light and they are in the dark, Taoist priests must always believe in the truth that evil cannot prevail over good. Their plan will definitely make the situation worse." Worse, so you have to prepare in advance in case something happens."

Hearing this, Fan Chen shook his head with a wry smile, and said, "Senior, even you have nothing to do, so what preparations can we two juniors have?"

"No. I don't have much research on formations, but Xuanyuan is a master of formations, so you must be able to find a solution." Mochizuki shook his head and continued: "As long as the formation eyes can be stabilized, the black hand behind the scenes will be forced to show up." body, and leave the rest to me."

After finishing speaking, Mochizuki gave us a meaningful look, then got up and left the room.

"Sigh, I didn't expect that the last task would fall on us again." Fan Chen rubbed his forehead and said with a wry smile.

Although Fan Chen has learned the formation from Taoist Xuanyuan for such a long time, but to put it bluntly, it is only better than half-baked.He spent a whole day in retreat in his room that day, but he didn't think of any clues.

While eating the fruit, I looked at Fanchen who was frowning, and asked, "Didn't your master give you any treasures when you came out to experience this time?"

Speaking of this, Fan Chen suddenly slapped his head and exclaimed: "That's right, why did I forget about this?"

After finishing speaking, he hurriedly opened his backpack and turned out all the things inside.I leaned over to have a look, except for a lot of spells and a change of clothes, there were no conspicuous treasures at all.

Seeing this, I even wondered if Fan Chen was Taoist Xuanyuan's apprentice.Even an iron cock like Gao Liang entrusts treasures like "ghost things" to me for safekeeping.Unexpectedly, the majestic Xuanyuan Taoist did not leave a treasure for his apprentice.

"found it!"

Fan Chen held a simple and old book in his hand, his face was full of excitement.I took a closer look, and there were a few cumbersome big characters written on it, but I couldn't make out what it was.

Seeming to see my doubts, Fan Chen caressed the book carefully, and explained: "This is a treasure handed down from our school, and it records various formations. It's just because this book is written by a remote tribe. The writing of the text, so there are many places I can't understand, which is why it has been backlogged for such a long time."

After finishing speaking, Fan Chen opened the book and searched carefully.I looked at the dark yellow paper like a dead leaf, afraid that he would accidentally tear the book in half.

Just when I was drowsy, Fan Chen suddenly slapped the table and woke me up.Before I had time to ask, a book was stuffed directly in front of me.Fan Chen directly saw a pattern on the book, and said excitedly: "I found it! Only this formation can completely drive away the ghost energy without destroying the eyes of the formation."

Looking at the Martian-like writing on the book, I scratched my head and asked, "Since I found it, can you understand what it says?"

Hearing this, Fan Chen's joy was immediately extinguished a lot.He also knew that if he couldn't read the words on the book, even if he found it, there was nothing he could do.

It's like a person who is about to die of thirst finds a glass of life-saving water, but he can't move at all, and can only watch the untouchable hope die.

"Let me try. If you really can't recognize these words, then you can only say that it's all God's will."

Fan Chen took the book away, and took out a piece of paper to translate it carefully.

After more than half an hour, I looked over and saw that Fan Chen had already written densely packed words on the paper.And he frowned tightly, staring at the paper, wondering what he was thinking.

"What's wrong?" I couldn't help asking.

Fan Chen handed me the paper, and asked: "This formation is quite complicated, and the materials it needs are extremely rare. I have seen others, but I have never even heard of this soul-snatching flower. Don't talk about looking for it."

"The Soul-Seizing Flower?"

When I heard this, I opened my mouth and said, "I know this, it's a black four-petal flower that happens to grow in the western part of Hunan. You can collect other materials, and leave the soul-snatching flower to me. "

After the discussion, we greeted the village chief and left Misty Village to collect materials.Fan Chen found the entrance of the ghost city to collect materials, while I went into the deep mountains and old forests, carefully looking for the soul-destroyer flower.

Before leaving, the village head repeatedly told us not to go to the dense forest outside the village.I don't know how many people wanted to explore it, but none of them came back alive.And I also agreed wholeheartedly, thinking that with my guts, how could it be possible to run to such a ghostly place.

At this time, the sky was just approaching evening, and under the cover of dense branches and leaves, it was as dark as the night, and the direction could only be distinguished by the light penetrating through the cracks.This kind of opaque place is definitely a place that every coward would never want to come to.

Because there are villages of corpse exorcisers all over Xiangxi, the place here is full of corpses.In addition, my spiritual sense is extremely sharp. When I looked up, the whole forest was filled with corpse aura, which added a lot of horror to the already terrifying scene.

The surroundings were extremely quiet, not even the chirping of insects could be heard, only the rubbing of one's own footsteps could be heard.I stopped, and when I was about to tell the direction and move on, I suddenly heard a rustling sound, like something rubbing against the grass.

The hairs all over my body stood on end, and I was so frightened that I didn't even dare to move.Taking a deep breath, I twisted my stiff neck and turned around. I shone around with a flashlight, but I didn't find anything unusual.

"It should just be my auditory hallucination. Yes, I must have heard it wrong."

I comforted myself in my heart and continued to search forward.Before I knew it, I was getting farther and farther away from Misty Village, and I didn't realize that I had come to the dangerous area that the village chief said.

I don't know how long I have been looking for, but the last light has completely disappeared.In a place where I can't see my fingers, I can only tell the direction by relying on the flashlight in my hand.In this environment, trying to find the black Soul Reaping Flower is tantamount to wishful thinking.

"Forget it, go back, or look for it tomorrow."

Looking at the dark surroundings, I retreated in my heart and prepared to return to Misty Village the same way.But before I took two steps, I felt a chill in my ankle, and there was a slippery thing rubbing against it slowly.

I can't describe how I felt at that time, I can only know that my mind is blank.Not to mention moving, even breathing slowed down.Taking a deep breath, I slowly moved the flashlight in my hand down, and then I saw a scene that horrified me.
