"Let's go."
Seeing that everyone was ready, Lu Huaming took the lead and walked toward the door.
He pushed open the door of the stone room, and a deep passage appeared in front of him. There was no fork in the passage, and it extended all the way forward.
The few of them did not hesitate and quickly walked forward.
The deeper the passage, the narrower it became. At first, two people could walk side by side, but in the end, only one person could pass through, and they had to bend down.
Fortunately, the passage was not too long. After walking for two or three hundred feet, a circular hole appeared in front of them.
Lu Huaming came to the hole and poked his head out to take a look. He found that the hole was actually on the side wall of a shaft, and he could see the sparkling waves below.
His figure leaped forward and was the first to jump out of the hole. Before he landed, a wave of water rose from the ground under his feet and supported his feet, sending him up to the mouth of the well.
Lu Huaming's body slowly rose, and he really looked like a water ghost at the bottom of the well.
Half of his body was out of the well, and after looking around, he found that he had come to an old house that had been abandoned for a long time. There were collapsed stone tables and stone stools around, and wild grass and wild plants everywhere.
After a brief inspection, he found that there was no danger, so he jumped out of the well and sent a voice transmission to the people in the well.
Soon, Shen Luo and others also rose out of the well.
Ge Tianqing looked around and saw that there was no one else around. He frowned and asked, "Where's the inside line?"
"Brother Ge, don't worry, I'll contact him now." Lu Huaming said.
After that, he turned his wrist and took out three green incense sticks and a small pale green bowl from the storage ring.
"Brother Shen, give me some water." He nudged Shen Luo with his elbow and smiled.
Although Shen Luo didn't know what he was going to do, he still raised his hand and threw a ball of well water into the small bowl.
"Thank you."
Lu Huaming expressed his gratitude and put the small bowl on the ground. He pinched the three incense sticks with his fingers and gently rubbed them a few times. A little red light lit up on the incense sticks. Then, three wisps of light blue smoke rose into the sky.
Then, he placed the lit incense into the small bowl of water. The three incense sticks all stood steadily on the surface of the water. Three wisps of water vapor wrapped around the incense sticks, entangling with the smoke from the incense sticks.
The smoke that was still faintly floating just now instantly rose straight into the air. After reaching a height of ten feet, it twisted in one direction and finally drifted away, disappearing without a trace.
"Alright, we only need to wait for a short while, and the people who are supposed to contact us will find us." After he was done, Lu Huaming took a few steps back and came to a stone table that hadn't completely collapsed yet. He waved his sleeves to get rid of the dust and sat down.
He subconsciously raised his hand to his waist, wanting to take off the wine gourd and take a few sips, but then he remembered that this was a special mission. Before he came, he had already been ordered by his master not to drink, so he simply didn't bring it.
He smacked his lips twice and had to wait with his arms crossed.
Not long after, some slight sounds suddenly came from the front yard of the old house. Shen Luo and the others immediately got up and rushed over there.
When they came to the junction of the front yard and here, they saw a hanged ghost with a long neck and a tongue hanging out. It was slowly floating over here.
Its face was extremely pale, and its eye sockets were dark blue. The long tongue that was sticking out was dark blue. It was a bit disgusting to look at.
"This is … an insider?" Red Hand Daoist raised his eyebrows and said in surprise.
"He also used the Yin Spirit Talisman? This appearance … is quite, quite like it. "Dan Yangzi also touched his chin and praised.
"This doesn't look like the promised appearance?" Lu Huaming looked strange and muttered to himself.
However, to be on the safe side, he still came in front of the hanged ghost and said, "Nine Nether Falling Rain is urgent."
When the hanged ghost heard this, its long tongue began to stretch out and retract. It seemed to be saying something, but because of its big tongue, it couldn't say anything clearly.
Lu Huaming couldn't hear it clearly, so he frowned and had to use voice transmission to say it again.
Unfortunately, after waiting for a long time, there was no response from the other party. Still, they could only hear the other party's vague "Wu Wu Ah Ah" sound.
At this time, a gentle voice suddenly came from behind the crowd. "The Yellow Spring has no boat to cross."
Shen Luo and the others were all surprised and quickly turned their heads to look here.
They saw a cluster of weeds in the courtyard was pushed aside, and a young man in a black robe came out of it.
His figure was slender, and his face was pale, almost without blood, but his eyes were quite bright.
"You are the contact, then this one?" Lu Huaming was surprised.
"A ghost that accidentally broke in, and its spiritual intelligence is not high … but it looks similar to you." The young man said.
After that, his eyes swept over Shen Luo and the others one by one.
As soon as his voice fell, there was a crackling sound of lightning. Ge Tianqing had already used a hand knife to pierce through the head of the hanged man, turning him into ashes.
"Ahem, how should I address you?" Lu Huaming coughed twice and asked awkwardly.
Seeing this situation, Shen Luo smiled and said nothing.
"Yu Lu. You are all ghosts now. Follow me in a while, don't speak without permission. "The young man said.
When everyone heard the words, they nodded and simply reported their names. They didn't say anything more.
"What about the array?" Ge Tianqing asked with a serious face.
"This array is quite important to the body refining altar. There was originally an elder of the dacheng stage guarding it. However, because in the morning, the Tang Empire government had already launched a clean-up battle with the cultivators in the city to the south of the city where the ghosts gathered. The attack was very fierce. The dacheng stage cultivator had to go to participate in the battle, leaving only one of his out of body disciple and three Soul Condensing Stage cultivators to guard it. "The young man who claimed to be Yu Lu said.
"One out of body disciple, three soul condensing stage cultivators, this battle is not easy to fight." Dan Yangzi thought for a while and said.
"Mr. Yu, do you know the attribute of their respective cultivation techniques?" Shen Luo asked.
Know yourself and know the enemy, you can win a hundred battles. If you can know the attribute of their cultivation techniques in advance, you can prepare to restrain them.
"I only know that the dacheng stage cultivator is a ghost cultivator, and most of his disciples are ghost cultivators. As for the other three cultivators, they are temporarily transferred, and I don't know for the time being. "Yu Lu said.
"This … there is too little useful information." Red Hand Spiritual Master couldn't help but say.
"My mission when I sneaked in was to find the key array and find a way to figure out where the core of the array is. Investigating the members of the body refining altar is just an auxiliary task. Moreover, the battle situation is changing rapidly. Our deployment is changing, and so is the other party. The previous cultivators who were stationed here were temporarily taken away, so the information about them is useless. I can't do anything about these newcomers. "Yu Lu heard the words, and his face was slightly gloomy. He was a little dissatisfied.
"It is not easy for Mr. Yu to sneak into the body refining altar, we can't ask too much." Lu Huaming quickly came out to smooth things over.
"Instead of being polite, it's better to talk about what to do next." Ge Tianqing said blankly.
