All of a sudden, white smoke rose from the river, and a gurgling sound could be heard as violent waves surged up.
Just as the old Taoist was alerted and was about to turn around, a mass of black seaweed suddenly rose from the water and turned into a naked woman with long black hair.
Her whole body was pale, but her cheeks were delicate and beautiful. She reached out her hands to grab the old Taoist's neck.
Daoist Bai Shui felt a chill down his spine. He suddenly turned around and took out a yellow paper talisman with two fingers. He raised it high and was about to point it between the woman's eyebrows.
However, just as he turned around, the woman's arms that were reaching for his neck suddenly went soft. She circled around from the side and hooked her arms around his neck.
For a moment, the scene became extremely charming. The old Taoist didn't seem to expect this scene. He was slightly stunned and his raised hand froze in the air.
"Concentrate!" At this moment, a stern shout came from behind Daoist Bai Shui.
The old Taoist quivered and pointed the talisman in his hand at the pale woman.
However, at this moment, a strange scene appeared!
The woman's mouth suddenly opened to an exaggerated degree, almost tearing half of her face. She let out a shrill scream from her throat.
His body suddenly bounced out of the old Daoist priest's arms like a white fish and leaped into the river. His wet black hair curled around Priest Baishui like a living creature, wanting to drag him into the river with him.
The old Daoist priest felt his throat tighten. Just as he was about to open his mouth to inhale, a tuft of black hair entered his mouth and went straight into his throat. He immediately retched in pain, and his strength seemed to have dissipated by 70%. He could only let the woman who was like a water ghost pull him into the river.
At this critical moment, the pale-faced scholar murmured and raised his hand to throw something into the water.
Four human-shaped paper cut from white paper flew out of his hand and landed on the water. At the same time, their bodies lit up with dark red light and expanded rapidly.
All of a sudden, four men dressed in the uniforms of government officials suddenly appeared in the red light. Each of them held a half-red, half-black stick of water and fire in their hands. They suddenly flicked the sticks upward, knocking back the female ghost and Priest Baishui who were about to enter the water.
Shen Luo crawled on top of the roof and looked over. He saw that the faces of the four people were deathly pale. There was no sign of life on their faces. Each of them had a string of black chains wrapped around their bodies. Their appearance was somewhat similar to the legendary ghost messengers.
Nü Shui was knocked ashore. She hadn't even landed on the ground when the white-faced scholar had already turned into a white shadow, and arrived before her in a flash. He raised one of his palms, and a snow-white radiance lit up on the tip of his palms.
The water ghost woman's long hair suddenly grew like a tree that suddenly grew taller. It lifted her body into the air and dodged the attack.
However, when the snowy light flashed, her long hair was cut off by a palm.
The long hair that was cut off immediately withered like water plants. Daoist Bai Shui, who was wrapped in it, rolled out and fainted.
The pale-faced scholar bent over to examine him and saw a layer of black Qi on the old Daoist's face. It was like a living creature that was trying to enter his tightly shut eyes.
"You haven't reached the end of your life. If you die, I'll be in trouble."
He muttered and took out a green talisman paper. He pointed it at the center of the old Daoist's forehead and formed a seal with his other hand.
The talisman paper lit up with a layer of light and covered his face. It was like a tug-of-war with the black Qi, and they were in a deadlock.
At the same time, the four ghost messengers rushed forward and surrounded the water ghost who had fallen to the ground.
"Looking at this situation, could it be the legendary ghost messengers catching ghosts? Who is this scholar? "Shen Luo looked at the pale-faced scholar and muttered to himself.
The two ghost messengers in front of the water ghost, one on the left and one on the right, raised their hands at the same time and threw the chains in their hands. Like two poisonous snakes, the chains shot towards the water ghost.
The water ghost let out a low roar and twisted its body. The wet black hair around its body suddenly swept away, and there seemed to be water splashing out from it. With a series of clanging sounds, the chains were all knocked back.
But at this time, the wind above her head was loud. It was the other two ghost messengers. They were waving their Fire and Water Rods and smashing them down on her head.
The water ghost couldn't dodge in time. She could only open her mouth and spit out a jet of black and stinky liquid. It was like an umbrella that blocked the attack above her head.
"Bang!" A loud sound rang out!
The ghost messengers in front of her used their Fire and Water Rod to smash the black liquid umbrella open. The ghost messengers behind took advantage of the situation and waved the red end of their Fire and Water Rod, heavily hitting the water ghost's shoulder.
A mournful scream pierced through the night sky.
The water ghost seemed to have been burned by a soldering iron. White smoke rose from her body. Her originally pale and smooth skin suddenly festered with large patches of pus. It was extremely miserable.
The four ghost messengers raised their hands at the same time. The iron chains in their hands flew out and wrapped around the water ghost's hands and feet. With a tug, they pulled her into the air.
The water ghost screamed again and again. But she could no longer struggle to escape. She was about to be torn apart by the ghost messengers.
Shen Luo saw that the ghost messengers cooperated so seamlessly. Only then did he understand why the pale-faced scholar could be so assured to save her. But in his heart, he was more and more curious about this person's identity.
At this time, there was a sudden movement from the bridgehead.
Shen Luo quickly looked in the direction of the sound. As a result, he saw the rhinoceros-like river beast trembling violently. Its eyes were shining with two balls of blood.
"Not good, it's coming!" The pale-faced scholar had not removed the black gas on White Water Taoist's face. Seeing this situation, he frowned.
The stone skin of the river beast peeled off layer by layer. From inside, it revealed pieces of flesh and bones that were not covered by the skin. Its body was surrounded by black gas. It jumped up from the base of the stone platform and smashed towards the backyard of the Water Heating Pavilion.
Seeing this, the four ghost messengers pulled their chains and completely tied the water ghost. They pulled her back and dodged.
"Boom!" a loud sound rang out!
Shen Luo was dozens of feet away. He still felt the house under him shake. He saw that half of the backyard of the Water Heating Pavilion had collapsed.
The river beast roared. The horn on its head lit up with a black light. "Whoosh!" It shot out.
One of the ghost messengers could not dodge in time. His shoulder was directly penetrated. A large red light flew out of his body and disappeared into the ground.
Its body quickly shrank and turned into a paper-cut figure. It burned into ashes.
Shen Luo looked at this scene and felt even more surprised.
Then, the horn on the river beast's head shot out another black light, hitting the other two ghost messengers.
"Back off!" The pale-faced scholar pulled hard and finally pulled off the black gas that stuck to White Water Taoist's face like a dog skin plaster. He quickly shouted at the remaining three ghost messengers.
