The Anarchic Consort c1-1376

With a pair of round eyes, Ajiu did not hesitate and directly released her and the two demon slayers. "Go deal with them!"
When the demon slayers heard this order, they almost cried.
Thinking about it, ever since they were brought to the little master's side, they had been eating their own kind.
Did that not make them sinful spirits?
There was nothing they could do. If their little master said to take action, they would definitely have to obey.
However, once they took action, the evil aura that swept over them made them fall far behind.
The ghost slayer spoke ghost language, but even so.
The problem corps could also see that the situation was not optimistic.
"What do we do now?" Li Hailou asked Ajiu.
Ajiu narrowed his tiger eyes. "There are demons around. Don't fall for it and don't move."
"But I always feel that there is someone behind us. This feeling is too uncomfortable." Any special forces soldier would not tolerate this.
Ajiu moved her finger as if she was locating something.
At this moment, another black shadow rushed over. That Black Shadow was very fast. It stretched out its left hand and directly grabbed towards the middle!
Demons were cunning from birth.
He would only find the weakest spot to attack.
Moreover, it was very clear that this girl's identity was an exorcist.
Otherwise, she would not have mastered so many techniques.
But even so, as long as he broke their Yang Energy Array, an exorcist was only a mortal to him.
The demon's speed was so fast that it was shocking. Almost in the next second, his black finger pushed a person out.
Once there was no one in the middle, it meant that the formation was gone.
The moment the Yang Energy lamp tied to ajiu's waist was extinguished, the demon also stopped moving. He was dressed in a long black robe, and it was impossible to tell how old he was. However, his black hair was wet, and his pair of scarlet eyes only made people feel fear.
"Not bad." The demon laughed, looking a little crazy, the tip of his tongue licked. "However, compared to a man, I prefer a young girl's soul, especially since your spiritual energy is so strong. What do you think? Do you want to make a deal with me? As long as you offer your soul to me, your companions will be able to survive. Moreover, I can tell you where the person you want to save is. That group of archaeologists are still alive in the ancient tomb."
Ajiu did not waste any time talking to him. She looked at the demonic qi that was spreading out from him. With a move of her finger, the nine-word mantra was spoken. The Buddhist light behind her shone brightly and instantly cut off the surrounding demonic fog!
The demon paused for a moment. It did not expect that the other party was not only an exorcist, but also a person with Buddhist affinity.
Why could she still attract Buddha's light? ?
Who else besides Ksitigarbha would have such an ability?
W-Who exactly was the girl?
The demon's expression changed. All kinds of guesses came one after another. Just as he was about to be swallowed by the Buddha's light, his eyes suddenly darkened. As if he remembered something, he transformed into a cloud and merged with the surrounding environment!
He fled in a very sorry state, and even his demonic nature was weakened by half.
He even suspected that the people he wanted to kill were deliberately hidden forces.
If this was not the intersection of the three realms.
He would very likely be burned to death by the Buddha's light as soon as he appeared.
Fortunately, he had given himself the identity of a ghost.
It was different now.
Since the outer skin on his body was gone, he could put on another outer skin. After all, demons were omnipresent. Since there was no Yang Energy Array, he could completely hide in their team.
After a long time, that person's soul would be devoured by him.
It was said that the human heart was the easiest place to breed demonic intent.
He was able to hide it all because of this!
Ajiu was worried that he would use this move. Now that the demon in front of her was gone, not only did she not smile, but she frowned heavily. Then, she turned her head to look at the problematic army.
Those people all had blank expressions. They did not know what had happened. Their minds were filled with the Buddha's light that filled the sky just now.
Ajiu frowned again. This time, even her expression became solemn!
Oh no, if that demon hid himself.
The demon had the same idea. In the thick fog.., his voice traveled over again and again. "So what if you have Buddha's light on you? As long as there are humans, I can hide. Didn't you just want to kill me? Now look for me... You must choose carefully. If I'm not here, when you make a move, you will harm your own companions..."
The devil's nature was cunning, and this sentence was not false at all.
He pushed Ajiu into a chess game that would definitely lead to death.
The devil was hidden in their group, and no one knew who it was.
Not only Ajiu could not determine it, even the person who hid the devil's identity also did not know that the devil had already hidden in his heart.
Ajiu narrowed her tiger eyes suspiciously. If she made a move, she was afraid that she had mistaken him for someone else. When the devil was not taken away, it would cause that person to lose his soul.
Because it was necessary to use the soul-expelling spell to deal with the demon. Once a human was accidentally injured, it would be very hard for him to recover.
But if she did not make a move, in less than two hours, that person whose heart had been the refuge of the demon would be in trouble, for his soul would be taken away by the demon.
Chapter 1356 - What’s on the Other Side of the River
Is there really such a thing as a soul pawnshop?
The soldiers looked at each other in confusion.
They were all materialists, so they did not believe in such things in the past. However, ever since the last puppet mission, they began to realize that perhaps there were indeed many things in this world that could not be explained by science.
Ajiu had not sensed any danger in the surroundings.
It was just that this time, even the compass was unable to confirm the direction.
Just like what she had described, this was the intersection of the three realms. Any human device might not function well here.
Bai Zhun also noticed the reaction of the compass. His eyes paused for a moment, then he squatted down and let Little Ala smell the burnt wood pile on the ground. "Trace it," he uttered.
The dog ran towards the west.
The yin and yang realm were separate realms which should not simply disturb each other. It was just like how the well water did not disturb the river water.
If it was in other places, it did not matter how they walked during the day.
Just as the old people often said, when walking at night, one must walk by the side and should never turn back. One must walk the way one walked before, and one should not turn around randomly when one wanted to. There were some things in the dark that could see oneself. If one bumped into them, one would lose 30% of one's yang energy. If one met some more powerful ones who really want to harm others, they might even stick to one's body.
It was the same situation now.
In this place, the demonic energy and yin energy were obviously greater than the yang energy.
They couldn't just walk around randomly, for it was very likely that they would block death's way of dragging the ghosts into the underworld.
Although the matter was complicated, Ajiu still put on a serious face and explained everything to her teammates.
"We have to walk in a straight line. The yin energy here is too strong. Just the yellow talisman won't be able to avoid those dirty things. Later, I'll w
alk in the front while the little brother walks in the back. This way, the yang energy formation won't bump into the passing souls."
Ajiu's method was indeed not bad. It was the simplest analogy.
The soldiers were all special forces soldiers, but they were still ordinary people with the n.a.k.e.d eye, which meant they wouldn't see the Grim Reaper there.
At this time, they needed to light a lamp. At the very least, they needed to let those souls who walked at night know that there were some humans here. When they walked, they would naturally take a detour.
Of course, there were some exceptions.
For example, there were indeed ghosts here who wanted to seize Ajiu.
This was because her body was a great tonic for them.
With such a natural affinity with Buddha, they had to deal with her before she became one of the Buddhas.
Even if they could only get meat scraps, this knowledge was a rare treasure for ghosts, especially malicious ghosts.
The fog here was indeed thick. Once they entered the west, the only sunlight was blocked, so it was really hard to tell where they were.
Moreover, Little Ala also became a little strange. It seemed that there was something on the other side of the river that made it feel scared. Obviously, it did not want to go over.
However, she would follow orders to the end.
Even their bodies had an admirable military spirit.
"But what on earth is there?"
In response, Ajiu frowned and could not help but look up at the winding river to the west...
Chapter 1357 - Encountered a Ghost
The closer they got to the mission point, the heavier the fog became.
As the soldiers walked in a line, they felt that even their surroundings had changed.
At first, they thought that they were confused.
However, as they walked, they realized that there were strangers that appeared around them.
These people walked lightly, as if they were just shadows, and their bodies were drenched in moisture.
Logically speaking, it wasn't raining here, so how could there be any moisture?
Nevertheless, that feeling was undeniable.
These new people were all bound by thick black chains, and in front of them, a man in a suit lowered his head to look at the things in his hands. As he raised his eyes, he swept across them and said, "All of you, walk faster. If you're any slower, you'll be the ones suffering."
Ajiu was walking at the front. After seeing this scene, she took the lead to stop and signaled for the problem corps to stand to the left.
This meant that they had to leave a path for the man in the suit.
After all, the soldiers were special forces soldiers, who were more vigilant than ordinary people. With just one look at the situation, they knew that something was wrong. Thus, they stopped and did not rush over to save them. In a low voice, they asked, "What's going on?"
Ajiu's answer was clear and crisp, her small face was beautiful and cute. "The one with the people is ghost messenger, also known as the Ox Head nd Horse Face. These dead souls should have been brought back by him to be reincarnated. In order to prevent them from losing one, their feet were locked by a chain."
"Afraid of them scaping?" Even though they were special forces soldiers, Li Hailou also felt that the scene in front of him was very scary. They had clearly met ghosts, but why would the deceased want to escape?
Just then, Ajiu turned her head to explain to him, "Some people don't want to be reincarnated after they die. For example, there are those who still hold grudges in their past lives. There are also some people who don't want to part with their grandchildren or sons, so they think of ways to escape. There are also some people who don't even know how they died. Such ghosts are usually killed by people close to them or have met some accident that even they don't know about. The former is because his soul subconsciously doesn't want to remember this incident. The latter is basically a natural disaster. However, no matter which way they die, they will be recorded in the notes of the Death God, who will harvest their souls. After they are harvested, their souls will be bound by chains. This is how underworld manages things nowadays."
Death? Harvest?
Those words that could only be heard in manga would always make people feel out of place when they appeared in real life.
"Stand over here. Don't let those dead souls touch you, and don't look them in the eye," Ajiu reminded Li Hailou and the others in a low voice.
The special forces were good at this point. They didn't have strong curiosity like ordinary people.
There were always various rules in this world. Once they broke the rules, they had to pay a price.
They did not want to pay that price now, so they simply turned their faces away.
When the ghost messenger brought the undead past this group of people, he subconsciously turned his head to look at Ajiu and Bai Zhun.
It was a lie to claim that they were not surprised. It had been too long since they had seen someone with such strong yang aura, which made the surroundings a little hot.
Moreover, the girl at the front clearly had Buddha's aura on her, but why were there two ghosts on her left and right?
Chapter 1358 - The Demon's Target
The Ghost Messenger couldn't figure out Ajiu's identity even after looking at her for a long time for he only nodded at her.
Actually, very few people in the human world knew that the underworld was also a very polite and work-oriented place. The prerequisite was that these humans did not block their way.
This place belonged to the intersection of the three realms. Anyone who intruded would die an unnatural death. However, with such an observant person leading this group of people, they shouldn't have any problems.
As officials of the underworld, they could also recognize the fate of Buddha.
The other ghosts didn't have that ability. They only felt that there was something very fragrant around them and couldn't help but turn their heads, as if they were sniffing something.
The ghosts used all their strength to pull the dead souls back.
"Don't dawdle. Everyone, hurry up."
It hadn't been peaceful here recently, so it was best not to encounter any demons in the three realms.
The Ghost Messenger's thoughts were indeed correct. Demons were more difficult to deal with than dead souls here.
However, he didn't notice the pair of scarlet eyes floating out of the thick fog.
These eyes weren't aimed at the dead souls, but at AJIU.
The mellower the soul, the more it would attract the attention of the demons, especially the high-level demons that could transform into a human.
On a tree branch, a tall figure stood and hid itself behind the leaves.
The cunning of a demon was that it would never confront an attack head-on, but would use everything that it could to prolong the time.
For example, taking advantage of a ghost's carelessness to get rid of two dead souls and turn them into evil ghosts...
After the soldiers experienced the scene just now, everyone had a new understanding of this world.
As the undead passed by, Ajiu brought them back to the original road and told them that if they saw these people again, they had to avoid them, whether it was here or in the future when they returned to the city and took the road at night.
After the soldiers heard this, they nodded and were about to take a step forward.
Just then, they saw a bus coming from the thick fog!
That's right, it was a bus!
Furthermore, the bus had its lights on. It stopped in front of them warmly and honked at them.
Li Hailou was a little stunned. This was a desolate mountain, so how could there be a bus?
At that moment, none of them wanted to board the bus.
They had been away from the city for so long that they started to miss the most ordinary life in the city.
For some reason, the two people behin
d them seemed to take a step forward. Ajiu immediately pulled them back.
Fortunately, Ajiu had great strength. Otherwise, she would not have been able to pull back these two special forces soldiers.
With a serious face, she shook her head at them. "You can't get into a car like this."
When the two special forces soldiers heard this, they were still not very clear-headed. This was because the driver gave off a warm feeling, just like the people they often met in their hometown.
They had to admit that they were homesick...
Ajiu frowned. Just as she was hesitating whether or not to recite the scriptures, Bai Zhun raised his hand and pointed the gun at the driver who was smiling at them. "My friend, we are not on the same path. You Take your Naihe Bridge, and we will take our path in the human world. Is that clear?"
The driver probably did not expect that there would be a human pointing a gun at him. His eyes widened.
What kind of world was this?
Humans were not afraid of ghosts anymore!
He lowered his face to scare him!
The bus driver turned his head and looked at Bai Zhun with his eyes. His face also gradually turned green. That look was indeed very scary.
The driver was about to drive the bus away.
Unexpectedly, the man he looked at actually smiled again. He tilted his head and let go of the Bodhi seed on his wrist and stuffed one into the gun. The corner of his mouth was cold. He raised his hand again and pointed at him. "Why aren't you leaving? Do You Want to die a second time?"
It wasn't just the driver. Even the passengers on the bus couldn't help but tremble when they saw Bai Zhun's action.
The driver finally opened his mouth and cursed a sentence that only a ghost could understand. He then drove off angrily in his own bus.
He couldn't afford to offend such a man.
Li Hailou, who was watching from the side, was impressed. He asked in a low voice, "Master Bai, aren't you afraid of them?"
"What's there to be afraid of? It's just a dead person." Bai Zhun's gaze was very light, as if there really was no difference in front of him.
