Chapter 1534 Guard Token

The sky is gradually getting brighter. Although it is far from "morning", the sunshine in early summer comes much earlier than before, which is enough to dispel the haze of the night.

Because it had just rained, the air outside was extremely fresh, mixed with the aroma of grass and earth, which was refreshing.

"Thank you to the two heroes for helping me."

"It doesn't matter. When we see injustice on the road, we should draw our swords to help."

"Hahaha, the warrior heroine is quick to talk, but I seem to be pretentious."

Wang Biao bowed his hands towards Wu Shaoyi and Yang Yiyi:

"If I hadn't still had some escorts with me, I would have drank three big bowls with the two heroines. If you are of any use in the future, just come to my Xingyuan Escort Bureau and give me a message. I will do my best."

"You're welcome, Mr. Wang, but it's a pity that those thieves escaped. You must be careful along the way."

"Thank you, Heroine, for thinking about me. I'll take my leave now."

The two of them hugged each other, and the escort leader Wang asked the escort to keep an eye on the escort. Soon they walked out of Po Tao Temple until they were completely out of sight.

At this time, Yang Yiyi said leisurely and a little scared:

"It seems like those dark figures just now are really ghosts?"

"Did you just notice?"

Li Chengqi said:

"As soon as I got online, I saw you chasing ghosts and beating them up."

Yang Yiyi was just suspicious just now, but when she heard what Li Chengqi said, she was immediately 'shocked' from head to toe, and goosebumps appeared immediately.

"You never realized that you co-authored it?"

Yang Yiyi really didn't notice that those shadows were ghosts.

Although she has heard ghost stories since she was a child, Yang Yiyi has never seen what a ghost looks like.

Since she had encountered someone pretending to be a ghost more than once before, her first reaction was that someone was recreating a classic, and it must be just a few thieves with extremely fast movements.

I chose to use the Black Bear Three Push Hands and the Ghost Car Sound because the surroundings were dark and the thieves were fast and difficult to catch. I couldn't catch one and kick him to death like usual.

This is a mistake, because the most troublesome thing about ghosts is that they hardly take physical attacks.

No matter how powerful you are, you can't even touch the ghost.

But both Wu Shaoyi and Yang Yiyi used their internal strength to attack, and the natural effect was outstanding.

At this time, Yang Yiyi didn't realize that what she was fighting was actually a ghost. It wasn't until they were illuminated by the sun and disappeared like smoke that she realized something was wrong.

It’s just that Yang Yiyi told Chief Wang that they were just a few thieves. Chief Wang believed Yang Yiyi’s words so much that he thought they were really just a few thieves until he left...

How to say it.

Although it is a good thing that Yang Yiyi is not scared when she encounters a ghost, her judgment is also wrong...

"No more, no more."

Yang Yiyi held her head and shook her head, as if she wanted to get the scene out of her mind.

"Let's leave quickly, maybe the ghost will come out again."

Originally, Yang Yiyi was a little sleepy because she was woken up, but now she is fine and completely awake.

Although ghosts are not difficult to deal with for people like Wu Shaoyi and Yang Yiyi who can attack with internal force, the psychological damage has to be considered separately.

But before leaving, Li Chengqi stopped them first.

"Last time we stayed in this ruined temple, no ghosts appeared. It was just Qin Yan and the others who were pretending to be ghosts."

"Um...Brother Li, what does this mean?"

"It means that in the past two years, someone died in this broken Taoist temple."

Regardless of whether they are strong or weak, undead creatures will not appear out of thin air. Wherever undead creatures appear, there must be dead people.

Wu Shaoyi said strangely:

"It could be a vendetta, or it could be someone who wanders here. It shouldn't be unusual."

"Dead people are not uncommon, but look at it. Where are the corpses and blood stains in the Taoist temple?"

Wu Shaoyi was stunned by these words. Indeed, there was no corpse in Po Tao Temple.

Yesterday, before the two of them came in to spend the night, they wandered around the Po Tao Temple twice.

If it was a vendetta and the body was taken away, then at least some blood should be left behind.

Even if a wild beast eats up the corpse, it is impossible to leave no traces behind.

But this goes against the conditions for ghosts to appear.

Yang Yiyi suddenly thought of a place:

"Brother Li, could it be that..."

"Yes, there is a place you didn't look at."

The last time I spent the night at this Po Tao Temple, I encountered Qin Yan pretending to be a ghost. She relied on the secret room below the Po Tao Temple. (See Chapter 168 for details)

Yang Yiyi completely forgot about this matter. If the body was not visible on the surface, then of course the body was in the secret room.

So Li Chengqi asked the two of them to turn around and go back to the main hall of Po Tao Temple. He turned on the flashlight and quickly found the secret door that had been opened once before under the pillars supporting the main hall.

This broken Taoist temple was once a stronghold for selling illegal salt, and sacks of illegal salt are still piled underneath.

However, as soon as the tunnel door opened, the two of them smelled a particularly strong rancid smell.

This meant that we had found the right place, but Yang Yiyi started to tremble again.

"Don't panic, there are only five or six ghosts you see in total, and ghosts are very weak unless they are particularly old."

Whether one becomes a ghost is related to whether one has obsessions before death, but how powerful one is is basically closely related to the year.

The intensity of a thousand-year-old ghost and the newly transformed ghost are definitely different.

With Li Chengqi present, Yang Yiyi regained her courage and walked down with a flashlight.

The further down they went, the clearer the strong stench of decay became. Following the smell of decay, the two could see some dark brown things on the ground. When they used a flashlight to shine on them, they found that they were actually dark brown bloodstains.

Judging from the degree of drying of the bloodstains, it must have happened half a month ago.

Continuing forward, the two found several corpses in a corner where a pile of sacks filled with contraband salt were piled up.

There were less than ten people, and they were already rotten beyond recognition, but it could still be seen from the rolled pieces of meat that these people were hacked to death.

Wu Shaoyi pinched her nose and looked up and down at the clothes of these people.

"It seems to be people from several sects."

These dead people were dressed as Jianghu people, but they were not brothers from the same sect. Wu Shaoyi recognized that there were people from Yezimen, people from Shiliuzhai, people from Qijuemen, and people she didn't know.

"Go a little further, don't be afraid, don't worry, it's just a pile of corpses, not ghosts."

Although they were not ghosts, it did take courage to approach a pile of rotten corpses.

The two slowly approached a few steps, and Li Chengxi said:

"Emmmm... Could it be that these people were cleaning up the traitors in the martial arts world, and then they were killed by the traitors?"

After all, Li Chengxi also saw that these people came from different sects by right-clicking to check the properties, and it felt like they were killed in a joint law enforcement.

But when he thought about the location where these bodies were found, the situation seemed a little wrong.

Not everyone knows the secret passage of this broken Taoist temple. Among the dead, there are people from the Sixteen Villages, so it is normal to know the secret passage.

But why were they hacked to death here?

If it was a joint law enforcement, they should have been killed in the process of chasing the traitors.

Could it be that the people they were chasing killed them in the broken Taoist temple, and then threw all the bodies in?

There is no need for this. There are always deaths in the martial arts world recently, and it is not a new thing to die a few more.

So Li Chengxi turned his mind around. What if this group of people were not killed in a joint law enforcement to chase the traitors, but they were chased by a group of people?

He wanted to hide in the secret passage for a while, but was discovered, so he was hacked to death here.

The bloodstains and fighting marks around him also proved this conjecture.

However, Li Chengxi would not talk to the dead, so this is all he can know at present.

Just when he was about to let Yang Yiyi and the others go out, Li Chengxi suddenly saw something flash in the pile of corpses.

"Wait, look at the left corpse's hand, is there something in it?"

Yang Yiyi stretched her neck forward, but couldn't see clearly, so she had to approach carefully and spread the corpse's rotten hand.

A brass token appeared in front of him, and this token looked familiar.

It was the token of the imperial guards of Yuezhou State. The imperial guards around Princess Mingzhu all had this thing, no wonder it looked familiar...
