Chapter 389 The Ghost Attacks
At this moment, the moon was covered by dark clouds, and the night wind was blowing, making it feel chilly.
Except for the light in the room, the surroundings were dark.
The people guarding the yard only felt that the wind seemed a little colder, but did not notice anything unusual because the surroundings were very quiet, so quiet that there was not a single sound.
After all, everyone in the post station was drugged, and the effect of the drug would not wear off until at least dawn, and those people would wake up, so they didn't find it strange that it was excessively quiet.
But Si He suddenly stood up, which immediately attracted their attention. They saw her staring at the courtyard gate in front of her with a cold expression, with a faint murderous aura emanating from her body. She turned back into the appearance of the killer before, no longer innocent and harmless.
Seeing her like this, they immediately realized that something was wrong around them and drew their swords to be on guard.
"Whoosh whoosh—"
The sound of their swords being drawn was particularly noticeable in the stillness of the night, and it instantly alarmed the people inside. The leader of the guards, Yang Sheng, immediately went out and asked, "What's going on?"
There was silence inside and outside the yard, and nothing seemed unusual. However, the cool breeze made people feel a chill in their hearts for some reason, and an indescribable fear was quietly growing.
"Something dirty is approaching, please all step back."
As she spoke, she took out a brocade bag from her bosom, which contained a stack of talisman papers. These were drawn by her in the past, and some were drawn by Ning Ji. Decades had passed, and the talismans were still effective, but the paper looked very dark.
She only took the talisman papers that she had drawn, and she was reluctant to use those drawn by Ning Ji.
When they heard her say that there was a 'dirty thing' approaching, their eyes widened in horror.
However, seeing that she was confident, they obeyed and did not move forward. Instead, they slowly approached the house and vigilantly guarded their master.
"Woooooo~"
Suddenly, a strange sound came from the front, which sounded a bit like the wind blowing, but if you listened carefully, it sounded like a woman crying, which was creepy.
"Woooooo~"
The sound was getting closer and closer, as if it was blowing in the wind.
Si He immediately waved a piece of talisman paper in a certain direction ahead.
"boom!"
"what--"
The talisman paper suddenly caught fire in the air five meters away, and the blue-red flames were very dazzling in the dark night.
At the same time, a ghost figure flashed and screamed loudly in the air.
The evil ghost had a hideous and pale face, blood was flowing from all seven orifices, and its long hair was flying. Its voice was sharp, and it was impossible to tell whether it was a male or female ghost. Its body turned into a ball of black mist, floating in the air, with its fangs and claws bared, and it was very scary.
When many guards saw this evil ghost, they gasped and looked terrified. They didn't expect that there really was a ghost!
Moreover, many people encountered ghosts for the first time and were very frightened and terrified.
At this moment, Yue Fuli was standing by the window, looking at the terrifying evil spirit in the yard with a cold face.
Everyone stayed away from the evil ghost, only she faced the ghost fearlessly.
At this moment, she suddenly rushed towards the ghost. She didn't hold a sword or any sharp weapon, but seemed to be holding a black thing in her hand.
When she approached, the evil ghost screamed and ran away as if it had encountered a scary person or thing.
Si He chased after it relentlessly. She jumped and quickly chased after the ghost.
A man and a ghost rose and fell in the courtyard. While the ghost was fleeing, it also attacked her. A series of cold and strange evil auras rushed towards her.
The strange thing was that the terrifying gas inexplicably dissipated the moment it rushed towards her body, as if it was just ordinary mist blowing past her without causing any harm at all!
The evil ghost was angry and frightened, but still kept waving evil energy at her. Some of the energy hit her but had no effect, while some of the energy was directed at the small trees and grass in the yard, and the grass and trees immediately changed their appearance. The originally green leaves, after being eroded by the energy, soon became gray, black, dry, and wrinkled, looking weird.
Seeing that it was helpless against her, the evil ghost immediately changed the target of its attack. It turned around and quickly flew towards a house not far away.
Si He immediately sped up and leaped towards the evil ghost with all her strength. As she moved, she was like a bat at night, extremely fast. In a blink of an eye, she was almost close to its back.
The evil spirit sensed the danger behind him and could only dodge, then turned towards her and screamed sharply, "Ah——"
The sound was extremely harsh and unpleasant, echoing in the silent dark night, striking people's hearts, and was accompanied by an indescribable sense of invisible oppression.
It screamed and pounced on her with its fangs and claws bared, as if it wanted to eat her!
Seeing this scene, the guards around were all worried. They wanted to help, but they were powerless. They didn’t know how to deal with the ghost!
Even Yue Fuli frowned. He took out a folded talisman paper from his arms. It was something he had bought from a master before. Since he often had to go to the martial arts world, he just bought a talisman.
He was about to throw the amulet to her, when she raised her hand and slashed at the evil spirit fiercely. In an instant, the evil spirit's screams resounded throughout the entire inn.
"what--"
As the ghost screamed, its figure immediately disappeared, as if its soul was beaten to pieces by her, leaving no trace at all!
The group of guards around were stunned. She was so amazing!
Even such a terrifying evil spirit was easily dealt with!
Si He stood in front of the steps, looking down at the soul stone in her hand. Now that the strange aura around her was gone, she put the soul stone back into the talisman bag.
The ghost was taken into the soul-sucking stone by her, but its soul did not fly away. She would seal it for a while, and it would be a good thing when it was refined.
This evil ghost was quite powerful. It emitted such a strong evil aura. If those gases attacked an ordinary person, it would definitely take away half the life of the person. Unfortunately, it met her.
She is a living dead, and her body originally contains evil energy, but she has been suppressing it, so the evil energy does not cause any harm to her.
If possible, she could also absorb the evil energy just now to enhance her own strength, but, in that case, the evil energy in her body would not be suppressed, and the loss would outweigh the gain.
Compared with strength and shortening the time of being awake, she would rather stay awake longer, so she let the evil energy dissipate.
After putting away the Soul-Snatching Stone, Si He did not relax, but turned to look towards the courtyard gate. There were still people outside.
It's impossible for this evil ghost to come here and attack people for no reason. How could it be such a coincidence?
Moreover, it was obvious that the evil ghost had been raised and was not one of those ordinary homeless wild ghosts.
She could still tell the difference between wild ghosts and raised ghosts.
