Chapter 1897 There is still evil mist
When Lu Zhaoling heard Master Shang say that she looked familiar, her heart skipped a beat, but she couldn't care less about that at the moment.
She had already looked around, and then gave Qingmu and Qingyu each a stack of talismans.
"The third tree over there, paste it."
"The fourth tree in front, paste it."
"Left front..."
Once Lu Zhaoling started giving her instructions, she didn't pay any attention to Master Shang and happy Hong.
She asked the Meng father and son to step back a bit.
"Was Brother Si hanging by his neck? Is he still alive?" Meng Rui was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. "Hanging for so long..."
If he had been hanged, he would have been dead by now, right?
He was about to cry.
happy Hong, standing beside them, offered a comforting word, "He's still breathing."
"Sister Xihong, how did you know?" Meng Rui was taken aback.
happy Hong said, "It's obvious that I'm a ghost. I can tell whether the other person is a human or a ghost, dead or alive, just by looking at them."
They believed her.
"Could Sister Xihong help me...?"
Meng Rui wasn't skeptical of Lu Zhaoling's abilities; he was simply thinking that a ghost would be more capable than Lu Zhaoling alone. For instance, happy Hong could float across, but Lu Zhaoling might not even have an easy time climbing that steep slope.
Reaching up to Meng Si, who was hanging in mid-air, must not have been easy.
But before he could finish speaking, happy Hong immediately shook her head, "I can't go up there. It's not that I don't want to help, but that ghost cultivator is very powerful."
"Even a ghost wouldn't go there?" Meng Rui was stunned. "What's there?"
They really can't see anything there from that perspective.
“You can’t see it, but we can. There’s a Nine Killing Array made of corpse energy there. If we little ghosts go there, we’ll be strangled and our souls will be scattered.”
Meng Rui was startled.
Is it so powerful?
"Then you'd better not go."
Master Meng's heart sank. "What about her?" he looked at Lu Zhaoling. "Would she be in just as much danger?"
Master Shang continued, "It's dangerous for us ghosts, and it's definitely more dangerous for you living people. If you go there, you'll die. However, that master is different. I can sense that she is extremely powerful."
He thought about it carefully again, "I think I met someone like that when I was young, and they were really impressive. Ah, that's right!"
Master Shang slapped his thigh. Although one hand was injured, the other hand was still quite nimble.
"I remember now, the reason she looked familiar is because she looks a bit like someone I met when I was young! They do, their eyebrows are similar, and the overall feeling is similar too!"
He looked at Lu Zhaoling and then asked Third Master Meng, "What is her surname?"
"His surname is Lu."
"Lu? That matches up! The person I met before also had the surname Lu! Are they related?"
Lu Zhaoling heard his words and suddenly turned her head.
"Mr. Shang, please wait here and don't leave. Let me rescue the person, and then we can talk."
Lu Zhaoling was somewhat excited at this moment.
The person Master Shang was talking about, could it be her father? It's very likely!
Because she was eager to find out the truth, Lu Zhaoling acted quickly. She was in a hurry to rescue Meng Si and leave this awful place to find out more about Master Shang.
She needs to break the Nine Killing Formation that happy Hong mentioned earlier first.
So many people have died here, all sorts of people and all sorts of ghosts, but the ghosts of those who died in the last few years may have been trapped here. That ghost cultivator sealed all these ghosts on the cliff and that tree.
So now, many heads have sprouted from the opposite mountain wall and the roots of that tree, all crowding around and staring at Meng Si, who is hanging from the tree.
We must first break the Nine Killing Formation before we can pass through. Then we must pull out all these ghosts and send them to where they belong.
We'll have to open the "ghost gate" later.
She didn't know if Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai were free right now. If they weren't, she didn't care. She would just kick these ghosts off and let them deal with it themselves.
Just then, black smoke began to slowly rise from the ravine.
Looking at it from this angle, it's a long row, like black flames rising from the ground.
And Meng Si, hanging there, looked like a piece of roasted meat.
The black mist looked eerily thick.
"Your Highness, look." Aoki saw it and immediately pointed it out to Lu Zhaoling.
"That looks a bit like the Ghost Abyss Mist," Aoki asked.
They had seen the Ghost Abyss Mist before when they were in Subei, so they recognized it immediately when they saw it now, but they weren't entirely sure.
Lu Zhaoling's expression changed slightly.
"That's right, it is indeed the Ghost Abyss Mist."
"Aoki, go and invite the Prince over," Lu Zhaoling said.
She could have saved Meng Si herself, but with so much Ghost Abyss Mist around, she suddenly suspected that the ghost cultivators here were not so simple. To ensure Meng Si's survival, she would need Zhou Shiyue's help.
"Yes. Be careful, Your Highness." Aoki immediately turned around and used his light-footed skill to find Zhou Shiyue.
Master Shang's expression also changed. "Something's not right. When did this thing appear? I've never seen it before."
happy Hong was also confused. "What is that? But I've never seen it before."
The two ghosts instinctively drifted further back. They dared not approach, and looking at the black mist, they felt a fear that trembled from the depths of their souls.
The black fog thickened further.
Such a long and deep ravine, with so much fog surging up, who knows how much more is below?
It seems that the evil mist is about to drift outwards.
“You all step back as well,” Lu Zhaoling said to the Meng family father and son.
"Your Highness, my fourth brother..."
"Step back, I will save him." Lu Zhaoling's tone was very calm.
"Thank you for your hard work, Your Highness." Third Master Meng pulled Meng Rui back. He could see, of course, that this was definitely not the time for them to help.
Now I can only be obedient and absolutely cannot hold the princess back.
Meng Rui gritted his teeth and stepped back.
Lu Zhaoling threw out several more fire talismans behind her.
This area is brighter now.
The ghostly heads on the opposite mountain wall moved and looked this way.
Lu Zhaoling's goal was to attract their attention and make them shift their focus away from Meng Si.
Meng Si seemed to move slightly.
Lu Zhaoling vaguely heard him saying something. However, because they were not close, his voice was weak and low, and she couldn't make out what he was saying.
However, as he was reciting something, his vitality seemed to improve slightly.
The ghostly aura around them receded an inch.
Lu Zhaoling guessed that he was reciting some scriptures.
I didn't expect him to know how to chant scriptures?
Moreover, the recitation is positive and effective.
This is probably why Meng Si has been able to persevere until now.
"Qingyu, draw your sword."
Qingyu drew his sword, and Lu Zhaoling used a talisman to temper it for him and opened his third eye.
Qingyu entered battle mode. He knew that the princess had done all this, and that he would definitely be needed soon.
