Chapter 308: Rengian Gui-disaster
In Xinglong Ling, Lin Feng noticed the information transmitted back by the corpse-collecting Zhiren and didn't think too much. Because the main purpose of the corpse-collecting Zhiren was to go to various places to collect corpses, it was inevitable to encounter Guiyi.
So he didn't pay special attention to this situation, thought about it a little, and directly let the corpse-collecting Zhiren continue to move forward to see what was going on.
Nowadays, Gui-disasters breaking out in various places in Rengian was, to be honest, perfectly normal. After all, the Great Xia Dynasty had collapsed, and the Gui-suppression Division, which was originally specialized in handling Guiyi in various places, had stopped operating.
If there were no specialized personnel to handle it, the number of Guiyi that would harm the world in the long run would only increase.
In Youzhou, the corpse-collecting Zhiren, having received Lin Feng's order, waved his hand at the several apprentices beside him, and then walked toward the front of the official road.
The Gui-slave that had been knocked flying by Huzi earlier climbed up from the snow again. However, this time, Huzi, who already knew his master's attitude, would no longer show mercy.
I saw him holding a hard wooden stick and leaping up directly. The hard wooden stick in his hand, under the blessing of Xi Gui's power, turned into a phantom, and then instantly smashed onto this Gui-slave!
"Bang! Crack!"
The crisp sound of bones breaking directly rang out on the quiet official road. Under the impact of Xi Gui's power, this Gui-slave was suppressed on the spot and fell into a state of silence.
"Click, click."
The corpse-collecting Zhiren stepped on the snow on the road and came to this corpse to start a careful inspection, then directly stuck a Corpse-Suppressing Talisman on the corpse and put it into the corpse-wrapping cloth bag.
"Master, did you see anything?"
Seeing the corpse-collecting Zhiren stand up, the several apprentices beside him immediately asked him. Having collected corpses for a long time, one could naturally discover a lot of valuable information through the corpses.
"Click, click, click."
The corpse-collecting Zhiren pointed forward, then made several gestures to them, and then took down some things from the donkey cart and handed them to each apprentice.
Dry rations, talismans, small Zhiren, etc. These things were all good things that could save lives.
Seeing the corpse-collecting Zhiren take out these things, several apprentices suddenly became nervous. Clearly, this was because there was danger ahead that the corpse-collecting Zhiren would take out these things.
"Erya, you take these two Zhiren, and when the time comes, watch the donkey cart and stay by Master's side, don't run around!"
After receiving these things, the eldest apprentice directly started to arrange these things. Although they knew there was danger ahead, they were still willing to take risks with their master.
"Qianyuan, you take these God-Inviting Talismans. If there is any movement, use them directly, don't be reluctant!"
"Huzi, after the Ancestor leaves, don't use the God-Inviting Talisman anymore. This ghostly weather is cold enough! Just follow Master's side."
Soon, he arranged the tasks for several junior brothers and sisters, and then said seriously to the corpse-collecting Zhiren:
"Master, we are ready. Later, are we going directly to deal with that Gui, or should we solve the remaining Gui-slaves first?"
His words were quite confident, which relieved the fear in the hearts of the other apprentices.
"Click, click, click."
The corpse-collecting Zhiren shook his head, then let them all be careful and not run too far. The meaning was obvious: the situation ahead was likely something they couldn't solve, so they would have to take it one step at a time.
"Creak~ creak~"
Soon, the master and apprentices walked forward again, but this time, everyone was exceptionally vigilant and no longer dared to speak casually.
Not long after, several more Gui-slaves appeared. For these things, they didn't say a word and directly suppressed them, then collected them into the corpse-wrapping cloth bag.
After successfully solving these Gui-slaves, the several apprentices looked significantly more relaxed, no longer as nervous as before.
What people fear most is always the unknown. Now that they had solved these Gui-slaves so smoothly, they naturally had more confidence.
Soon, as they continued to move forward, suddenly, a city that looked very simple and unadorned appeared abruptly before their eyes.
Looking at the entire city from afar, it seemed to be composed entirely of gray rock, but the style was really quite different from the current cities, so when they saw this city, they stopped their footsteps instantly.
There were no soldiers guarding the outside of this city, and the city gate was wide open. Through the city gate, one could clearly see the scene of people coming and going inside, which was extremely lively.
"This... what is going on?"
"Hiss~"
"..."
Seeing this situation, several apprentices suddenly opened their mouths in surprise. However, just as they felt surprised, they suddenly discovered that they had already arrived at the city gate at some point.
Ahead was the entrance to the town. From here, one could clearly see people coming and going in the city, and various small vendors were shouting to sell, appearing exceptionally lively.
"Ah—uh—ah—uh"
Suddenly, the donkey, which had been very calm, suddenly screamed, and then it seemed to be frightened and started running around pulling the donkey cart.
At this time, the female apprentice responsible for leading the donkey was suddenly pulled, and the whole person followed and plunged into the town. The corpse-collecting Zhiren beside her grabbed her back, and as a result, he also stepped into the city.
"Master! Erya!"
"Quick, chase!"
"Be careful, don't get separated!"
"..."
The other apprentices saw that their master and junior sister had been pulled in, so they were anxious, and without caring about anything, they rushed directly into the city gate.
But as they entered, they suddenly felt a spin of the world, and then they found themselves appearing alone in some location within the city.
And at this time, Lin Feng, who was still planning the Yinjian layout in the stone royal palace of Xinglong Ling, suddenly stopped his movements.
"Ancient city, Guiyi gathering... This is somewhat similar to the situation in Changshou Town back then."
"Could it be that someone is making trouble in the dark again?"
"No, no, no, the situation is not right. Besides Youzhou, Guiyi activities in other places also seem to have increased!!"
Yunzhou, the province where Lin Feng had arranged the most Zhiren. Back then, he had manufactured tens of thousands of farmer Zhiren and scattered them here.
But since last night, these farmer Zhiren seemed to have encountered Guiyi one after another.
At first, Lin Feng didn't pay attention. After all, there were too many people who died in this province due to the bloody massacre by the barbarians back then, so it was perfectly normal for some Guiyi to appear.
But after the corpse-collecting Zhiren in Youzhou was inexplicably pulled into an ancient city, Lin Feng suddenly became vigilant.
Afterward, he started to communicate directly with the Zhiren scattered in various places. Besides the corpse-collecting Zhiren, there were also various types of Zhiren who had been looking for the Incense Master to gather information. These Zhiren were still wandering in various provinces according to Lin Feng's orders.
"Sure enough, the number of Guiyi in those eight provinces has also increased significantly. If it's because of the Incense Master, this speed is inevitably too fast!"
Soon, Zhiren in various places had relevant information fed back to Lin Feng. Undoubtedly, whether it was a province that had suffered great disasters or a relatively peaceful province, Guiyi activities were more frequent than in the past. ===== CHAPTER 309 =====
