C29 Crashing Evil
Ghosts are different from Yaos. Yaos have bodies, but ghosts are illusory beings that control the magnetic field around them to achieve their goal.
"What's wrong?" Su Qian saw Gao Ming's expression change slightly. Even though she wasn't a disciple of Daoism, she knew that it wasn't a good thing for the talisman to burn itself without being controlled.
"What a strong resentment." He was a little surprised, but he did not panic. Then he took out the last three paper charms from his pocket, bit his index finger, and tapped the blood on each of them.
"Five Stars Suppress Color, Gods and Ghosts retreat!"
The paper talisman quickly rose into the air and expanded the golden circle.
Under the light, Su Qian was able to see the scene on the field clearly. It was actually a large graveyard!
Her heart skipped a beat. Each of the graves had a wisp of smoke rising from it, and on the top of the hill there was no mound, only a clump of weeds, but above them there was a wisp of red smoke.
Su Qian firmly believed that her eyes were not playing tricks on her. As soon as the golden light touched the red smoke, the golden barrier was instantly swallowed up. In the air in three different directions, weak flames lit up and were extinguished in an instant. Suddenly, a strong gust of wind, as if controlled by an invisible force, surrounded the two of them!
"Brother Gao Ming..." Su Qian was blinded by the sand and stones, and when she looked back, she found that Gao Ming had disappeared. She had come out in such a hurry that she had forgotten to take the Nine Heavens Directionless Awl.
"Ugh!"
She hurriedly turned around. In her blurry vision, she seemed to see a red figure standing in the air vent. Without saying anything, she immediately activated the spiritual energy in her hand and waved two purple flames forward.
However!
The red light disappeared!
She looked about her in astonishment, and the purple flame, which had missed its mark, was swallowed up by the night. Suddenly an invisible force came from her right forearm, and, as if a strong hand had caught her, she was flung out of the way, and fell to the ground a few feet away.
She struggled on the ground in pain. She could not see those things at all. Her monster hunting skills were useless.
"Su Qian!"
Gao Ming's shout came from the left side. Su Qian had an idea and immediately shot out a beam of purple light. Not long after, Gao Ming's figure appeared in the sandstorm. Seeing that she was injured, he quickly went up to help her up.
"Are you okay?" he asked with concern.
Su Qian shook her head. She didn't want him to worry, but her back and waist were still in pain from being hit by a tree. She could only use her other hand to cover her wound and grit her teeth.
"Chi You Wuheng!"
Gao Ming waved the Scarlet Dark Sword in his hand, and a stream of light shot out in a direction to the right. A weak scream came from the howling wind, and a wisp of blue light disappeared in a flash!
After that, Gao Ming attacked from both sides, but all of his attacks were accurate. Every time he howled, a wisp of green smoke would dissipate.
As he attacked more and more frequently, the wind became stronger, and all kinds of evil spirits roared in his ears. The dangerous atmosphere in the air also became stronger and stronger. Su Qian saw that Gao Ming's serious face was gradually becoming tense.
"The God of Slaughter is a gift to the poor!"
At this moment, a golden light appeared outside the storm. It was like a fire in an icehouse. The storm melted away as soon as it came into contact with the light!
All kinds of shrill cries passed by Su Qian's ears and drifted further and further away. Soon, the wind gradually died down and the fog dispersed. Uncle Gao and Li Zezhe, who had yellow paper talismans hanging from their heads, walked out of the dark night!
"Uncle Gao!"
Su Qian happily walked towards them. The golden light was emitted from the yellow paper talismans.
"Xiao Qian, are you alright?" Uncle Gao quickly looked at the two of them and controlled his hand gestures. The yellow paper talisman powerlessly fell to the ground and turned into paper. The wind blew it away.
Su Qian shook his head and looked back at Gao Ming. When he saw Uncle Gao, his face turned cold and he turned around to leave.
"Gao..."
Su Qian was about to chase after him, but after taking two steps, she felt a sharp pain in her spine. She stopped and covered her wound with her hand. She squatted down in pain.
"Xiao Qian!"
Everyone gathered around her. Li Zezhe immediately held her up, and even Gao Ming came back and knelt in front of her on one knee. He looked at her with worry in his eyes.
"Big Brother Gao Ming, don't, don't go." Su Qianyun endured the pain in her body and pulled on Gao Ming's sleeve as she pleaded.
"Don't talk. I'll take you back first." Without saying anything else, Gao Ming and Li Zezhe helped her up. Then, they squatted in front of her and picked her up from the ground.
Su Qian was lying on his shoulder. Although he was walking very steadily, her bones were still aching. The distance of one mile made her forehead covered with cold sweat.
When they got back to the house, Su was lying on the pillow with her back to the ceiling. Fortunately, Li Zezhe was a ready-made doctor.
Everyone was relieved.
"Gao Ming, come here for a moment."
Uncle Gao waved at Gao Ming. His tone was serious. He must have something to tell Gao Ming.
Su Qianyun used her eyes to ask Gao Ming to come with her. He curled his lips helplessly before reluctantly walking out.
Li Zezhe also told Gao Ming to be careful and went back to his room. After they left, Auntie Qiu came in with dumplings.
"I know you didn't have enough to eat for dinner. I'm really sorry. The feast is so noisy." Auntie Qiu carefully moved a stool to the bed so that Su Qian could pick it up and eat.
Regarding dinner, Su Qian raised the corners of her lips and returned a polite smile, "It's fine, Auntie Qiu. Actually, Brother Gao Ming is cold on the outside but warm on the inside. Don't take it to heart."
She was lounging in another chair by the bed, her eyes slightly lowered, her smile forced and bitter, the hair falling back from her forehead and gently tucked behind her ear. "I know that little Ming is prejudiced against me, and I don't blame him."
Her tone was as gentle as ever, but when she looked up again, her eyes were firm and resolute. "But when Sister Hui was still alive, Zhenhui and I were only colleagues. At that time, Zhenhui opened a paranormal club in She Cheng, and I was a receptionist there. The day Sister Hui died, Zhenhui happened to be on official business."
She went on with a long story of guilt and sadness, but there was no regret, and Su Qianyun knew that if she had been given another chance, she would still have chosen to do it.
Only now did Su Qian understand why Gao Ming was so against Aunt Qiu. When his mother passed away, his father and husband, Uncle Gao, were away and could not come back. Yet Gao Ming, at such a young age, had to bear all of this alone. Even if it was just for two hours, it was enough to leave a deep impression on his young heart.
Su Qian felt sorry for Gao Ming, but at the same time, she didn't criticize Auntie Qiu for what she had done. It was all over now.
"Auntie Qiu, I have a box of Jade Dew Ointment in my bag. Can you help me rub my wound?" Su Qian changed the topic.
"Of course," Auntie Qiu said, opening her backpack and taking a white plastic box from the hidden compartment. She unscrewed the lid and gently applied the cream-colored, cool ointment to Su's back.
Su Qian was really glad that she brought this ointment with her when she went out. It could save her a few days of suffering.
Auntie Qiu left after giving her the ointment. Su Qian also ate some dumplings to warm her stomach and fell into a deep sleep.
The next day, the sunlight passed through the window and quietly sprinkled on the ground.
She tried to get out of bed and walk around the living room, but she was caught by Gao Ming, who came in with a bowl of porridge.
"Who told you to get up? Get back on the bed." He used a commanding tone and scared Su Qian back to the bed with a few words.
"Brother Gao Ming, I was worried that you would leave first." No matter what, seeing that Gao Ming was still here today, Su Qian felt quite pleased.
Looking at the time, it was already 11: 30 in the afternoon!
Su Qian was slightly surprised. She thought that Auntie Qiu must have seen that she was sleeping soundly, so she didn't come to disturb her.
"You should worry about yourself first. Have some congee." Gao Ming handed a bowl of pumpkin congee to her. Then, he sat down leisurely on a chair beside her and started to swipe his phone.
Su Qian was already used to his rude attitude. She pouted and took the bowl of porridge. The temperature was just right.
"By the way, Brother Gao Ming, what do you think was the purpose of the thing that trapped us last night?" Su Qian recalled the strange encounter last night. It was her first time meeting a ghost.
"A ghost. Find a substitute." "See that red light last night? We hit a wall."
Su Qian's heart tightened, "Crash into it?"
He went on to explain: "Female ghosts of great cultivation are called evil spirits, unlike other imps who seek substitutes. These evil spirits are so resentful that they cannot reincarnate beyond the Six Paths. "
Speaking of that red light, Su Qian also noticed it. To be able to break through Gao Ming's spell so easily, it must not be a simple evil spirit. She believed that if Uncle Gao had not arrived in time, they would not have been able to escape.
"Brother Gao Ming, you can see those things, right?" She was sure that Gao Ming had fought alone last night, but he had defeated the enemy with every move. It was definitely not a coincidence, and Demon Hunters who used yellow paper talismans were very rare.
Gao Ming finally raised his indifferent eyes and looked at her. Then, he used his hand to pull back the bangs that were slightly covering his eyes, revealing a pair of blue eyes that were different from the rest.
