Chapter 137

"Yan, Brother Yan?"

Nie Xiaoqian was worried that the news would be discovered, so she left in a hurry after saying that.

As soon as Shi Potian turned around, he saw Yan Chixia standing behind him. He was shocked and said, "Are you awake?"

After a meal of wine, his name for Yan Chixia also changed from "Master Yan" to "Brother Yan".

Suddenly, Shi Potian seemed to have thought of something, suddenly opened his eyes wide, and shouted: "Are you pretending to be drunk? Want to trick the tree demon into coming out?"

Yan Chixia said, "You kid is not stupid." Looking at Nie Xiaoqian leaving the direction, she said, "It's a pity that only caught a lonely ghost. Do you think what the female ghost said is true or false?"

Shi Potian said without hesitation: "Really."

Yan Chixia withdrew her gaze, looked up and down at Shi Potian, and said suspiciously: "Boy, can you see that female ghost is beautiful and fall in love with her?"

Shi Potian shook his hand and said, "Brother Yan, you can't talk nonsense. I am a family member, how could I fall in love with other people? I just think what she said is true and has nothing to do with other things."

Yan Chixia said, "This is the best. That female ghost can stay in Lanruo Temple for so long, so she is not a good person. Don't be fooled by her trick of playing hard to get!"

Shi Potian nodded "Yes", and he also felt that Nie Xiaoqian's last words were not sincere, but...

Shi Potian hesitated for a moment and said, "Brother Yan, I know she is using us to deal with the tree demon. But you said before that the tree demon cannot leave Lanruo Temple too far. If we can save these lonely ghosts, it will be like cutting off its arms, and it will have no way to continue to harm people."

Yan Chixia thought about it and felt that Shi Potian was right and said, "You don't have to worry about this matter. Let's leave here first. When tomorrow dawn, I will go to the grave to dig out the corpses of the lonely monsters and send them away, and let them be reincarnated."

Although he was not afraid of the Black Mountain Master, he was unwilling to stay here as a living target.

Shi Potian nodded and was about to respond, Yan Chixia suddenly changed her mind and said, "No! The tree demon has been in Lanruo Temple for so many years, and he still doesn't know how many lonely ghosts there are under his command. I may not be able to dig it over by myself. You should come with me tomorrow."

Shi Potian naturally had no objection and nodded in agreement.

The two then left Lanruo Temple and rushed to Guobei Town, preparing to buy some shovels and hoes, and then go back to dig up the corpse after dawn.

Outside Guobei Town.

Ning Caichen stood at the intersection and looked at the direction of Lanruo Temple with a worried look on his face.

It was late summer and early autumn, and there had just been heavy rain during the day. The temperature dropped sharply. Ning Caichen was trembling with cold, but he still refused to leave.

"Mr. Yan, Master Yan."

When Ning Caichen saw Shi Potian and Yan Chixia, he hurriedly came up to meet him. Seeing that they were safe and sound, a hint of joy appeared on his face, "It's great that you are fine! What about that monster? Have you removed it?"

Yan Chixia was annoyed that she had let the tree demon go for a moment, so that she caused another ghost king Heishan old demon who was unknown. When she heard this, her face darkened and ignored Ning Caichen and walked past him.

Shi Potian didn't expect that Ning Caichen was still waiting here, so he hurriedly raised his hand and sent a stream of true energy into Ning Caichen's body, saying, "Brother Ning, I didn't give you money, and asked you to find an inn in the town to rest, why are you still here?"

Ning Caichen only felt warm and his whole body became much more energetic, and said, "I'm worried something will happen to you..."

Yan Chixia snorted coldly and said, "What's the use of worrying? What else can you help? Let's take a break if you cool down! Don't cause trouble for us, it's your great achievement!"

Ning Caichen's face turned red, but he was also powerless to refute.

Shi Potian couldn't bear it and said, "Brother Yan, Brother Ning also had a good intention. Let's find an inn to rest in the town first."

Yan Chixia said, "The people in this town have been scared by the tree demon long ago. Which inn dares to open the door for you in the middle of the night? Come with me."

There are only two inns in Guobei Town, and it is difficult to check in in the middle of the night. However, over the years, the imperial court has imposed heavy taxes and many corrupt officials. Guobei Town has long been empty for nine out of ten households, so it is very easy to find an empty house.

Yan Chixia led the two into the town, found an uninhabited yard, and walked in.

Yan Chixia was too lazy to waste her talk with Ning Caichen, and said to Shi Potian: "It's not convenient for me to show up in Guobei Town. You can buy some hoes tomorrow." Then she found an empty room and went to sleep.

Shi Potian talked to Ning Caichen about what happened in Lanruo Temple.

Although Ning Caichen had no power to tie a chicken, he was also righteous. He only gritted his teeth and was furious at the tree demon. Hearing that Shi Potian and Yan Chixia were going to the grave to dig up the corpse the next day to pull out the lonely ghosts from the tree demon, he also came up with some effort.

Shi Potian refused him without hesitation.

Yan Chixia's words were a bit hurtful, but they were also the truth. Ning Caichen really couldn't help them.

Shi Potian gave up his thoughts of helping Ning Caichen, and then he found an empty room to sleep.

The next morning, Shi Potian went to the blacksmith shop in the town to buy a shovel and hoe, and set off on the way to the cemetery with Yan Chixia.

The grave is located on a wasteland on the back mountain of Lanruo Temple. It is overgrown with weeds, the tombstones are tilted, and the air is filled with a rotten atmosphere. The gust of wind blows coldly.

Shi Potian looked at the graves all over the ground and was a little confused about how to start.

Yan Chixia took out a talisman from her arms, clamped it between her fingers, and chanted: "The world is invincible, and the universe is borrowed from the Dharma!"

The talisman spontaneously ignited without fire, turned into a ball of blue flame, and was thrown into the air by Yan Chixia.

Bang!

The flames burst open, the stars scattered everywhere in the graves.

Yan Chixia said: "The place where the flames are located is where the corpses of the lonely ghosts are located."

Looking up at the sky, seeing the sky was gloomy and gray, Yan Chixia frowned, her fingers calculated, frowned, and said, "In half an hour, no matter whether they can dig out all the corpses of these lonely monsters, we must leave. The graveyard is extremely resentful. If we fight with the tree demon here, we will suffer a great loss."

Shi Potian held the shovel in his hand tightly, nodded, and said, "Brother Yan, I understand. Let's hurry up and dig as much as we can."

The two acted quickly and began to dig according to the position where the blue flames fell.

As the soil was turned open, a stronger smell of decay came to the face, which was disgusting.

Not long after, Shi Potian's shovel encountered a hard object.

He squatted down and used his hand to push away the soil. He found that it was an urn with countless whiskers wrapped around it, as if it was tied up by these whiskers.

Shi Potian dared not act rashly and shouted, "Brother Yan."

Yan Chixia walked over quickly, glanced at the urn, took out a small cloth bag from her arms, and sprinkled some cinnabar. Only a "sneer" sound was heard, and the roots melted quickly like snow encountered the sun.
