Chapter 117 116. Do not plant five yin trees in your home

"Xu Qing, hurry!"

Zhao Yinxi and Mo Qingxue looked anxious and urged them repeatedly.

Seeing that the paper fairy had died, Xu Qing did not dare to stay and asked the Jiazi God and Dingchou God to block the five red-clothed ghosts.

He rushed to the right corridor again.

However, just as he joined Zhao Yinxi and Mo Qingxue and prepared to go deeper into the haunted house, his sixth sense suddenly roared with a warning, and a strong sense of crisis came over him.

Xu Qing's pupils contracted and his heart beat wildly.

Following the sensation, his eyes looked towards the corridor ahead.

In the overlapping light and shadow, a black armchair stood in front of Xu Qing and the other two. The name on the tablet seemed to have been scratched off by someone's fingernails, and the scratched and mottled tablet stood quietly on the chair.

Although it seemed quiet, Xu Qing and the other two could clearly feel the fluctuations of hunger, bloodthirstiness, and greed coming from the tablet.

when?
Xu Qing and the other two looked solemn. When did this tablet located at the top of the hall appear in front of them?

This was clearly an attempt to stop them from leaving.

Damn it, these two evil creatures should have been full just now!
People are greedy, and ghosts are greedy too. They will force themselves to keep eating even if they can't finish their meal. Once you miss such a great opportunity, you won't encounter it often again.

Xu Qing roughly guessed the thoughts of the evil creature that blocked their way.

But this won’t work!
As the number of people and Shadow-Treading Gu in the central courtyard decreased, more and more red-clothed Wandering Ghosts gathered here. With each additional one, the pressure on them increased.

Damage has already occurred to the Jiazi God and the Dingchou God.

"I'm here to burn incense and offer sacrifices!" Mo Qingxue walked out resolutely.

Zhao Yinxi is now very exhausted after activating the life-saving purple talisman. Xu Qing is the most important fighting force among the three, so she is the most insignificant here.

It is most appropriate for her to burn incense and offer sacrifices.

As for whether you can survive, you can only leave it to fate!
Xu Qing shook his head.

It is unknown how long Zhao Yinxi's purple talisman can last if Mo Qingxue loses the ability to move due to the loss of energy from burning incense and offerings.

Dragging these two burdens, there was no guarantee that he could lead them to find the White-Robed Buddhist and Captain Luo.

Xu Qing gritted his teeth and quickly took out three incense sticks from the Hu Tian Fu. He was ready to take a gamble and bowed towards the two restless tablets.

The ten guardian gods in the body simultaneously exude a vast and majestic divine aura.

Click, click, click!
Unexpectedly, just as Xu Qing bent down, the tablet standing quietly on the armchair began to shatter.

As fine cracks appeared on the tablet, an extremely shrill wail emanated from it.

Xu Qing's eyes lit up.

He knew he made the right bet!

The twelve guardian deities in his body are not real gods, but rather the condensed forms of the divine will that circulates in heaven and earth.

But their existence, on some level, represents the true Gods.

Bow down and worship with the body of a righteous god. Not to mention evil spirits, even if a fierce god comes, he will not be able to withstand this worship.

"go!"

Xu Qing called Zhao Yinxi and Mo Qingxue to quickly move deeper into the haunted house.

With the guidance of their aura and causal lines, their actions were obviously more clear than those of Old Man Fang and others, and they kept moving forward.

Green and red lanterns floated in the darkness, dimly illuminating the road beneath their feet and the surrounding environment. Xu Qing and the other two were tense and alert.

Passing by a large area of ​​neatly arranged buildings and beautifully laid out pavilions and towers, the three finally came to a garden that looked ordinary compared to the front yard and atrium. "Garden?"

There was a look of vigilance in Xu Qing's eyes.

Everything around was dead silent and still, exuding an indescribable eeriness.

The pale green firelight that came from nowhere made the whole garden look a little dim. The chaotic light and shadows looked like countless twisted limbs and indescribable ghosts lying on the ground and walls.

A gust of wind blew by,
The trees, flowers and plants in the garden rustled, and the shadows on the ground seemed to be cut into countless pieces as if they had been cut into pieces by a thousand knives.

The origin of this haunted house must be extraordinary.

It is very likely that the former owner of the haunted house had attained a high level of supernatural powers, or even achieved the seventh level of body, the pinnacle of the human world.

Places like this are not simple at all.

"That Buddhist disciple and Captain Luo are deep in this garden?" Xu Qing murmured.

The aura and causal lines did show that Fuzi and Constable Luo were deep in the garden.

Xu Qing released the Jiazi God and used the God's Eye to check the details of the garden, but this time the God's Eye seemed to be ineffective. All he saw was the ghostly and yin energy that was so dense that it was almost tangible, and there was nothing unusual.

In other words, there are no ghosts in this garden at the moment, and ghosts will only appear when certain conditions are met?

Just like when nothing strange happened in the haunted house.

As long as you hold a corpse oil lantern, you can pass through the gate guarded by the black flower spirit and stay safely in the front yard.

Xu Qing guessed that the changes in this haunted house were likely to have occurred gradually from the outside to the inside, which means that the garden is still "normal" at present.

However, to see whether this guess is correct, they can only go in and try it themselves.

"Go in, be careful." Xu Qing warned: "Also, Mo Qingxue, give some of those corpse oil lanterns you just picked up to me and Yinxi."

"Refill the corpse oil first to prevent the lantern from going out."

It seems that the further you go into this haunted house, the more corpse oil lanterns are consumed, so you don't have to pay attention to the consumption of corpse oil when a battle occurs later.

Replenishing before entering the garden is the best option.

After Xu Qing and the other two refilled the oil in their lanterns, they stood in a “品” shape and headed towards the location of the white-robed Buddhist disciple and Captain Luo.

The flowers, plants and trees growing in the garden seemed somewhat normal except for their strange colors in the firelight.

But the more normal this ghost place is, the more troublesome it becomes.

On the other side, in this astonishingly large garden, is the entrance leading to the final inner house.

A locust tree with lush branches and leaves, twisted roots and crooked branches stands at the entrance, completely blocking the door behind it.

If only this were the case,
It would not make the white-robed Buddhist and Captain Luo look so heavy--

The locust tree was covered with corpses!

A gust of cold wind blew, and the corpses hanging on the drooping branches swayed gently, just like the strings of bacon hung under the eaves of people's houses to dry.

Among the many corpses, the body of the old master Tao was prominently listed.

Another thing to note is that every body hanging on the tree was suspended with its head down and feet up.

"The locust tree among the five yin trees has corpses hanging on it. It's very ominous." Captain Luo looked at the evil spirits, negative energy, and resentment emanating from the corpses, and his eyes were filled with anxiety.

In this world, there is a taboo that goes, "Don't plant the five yin trees in the house." In any house, you are not allowed to plant five kinds of trees: poplar, willow, elm, locust and mulberry.

These five types of trees have the effect of gathering yin. Planting them in the house can easily attract ghosts and evil spirits, or even raise ghosts and evil spirits.
