Gu Zheng and Xing Cai looked at the uninvited guest in front of them in a daze. How could such a cute little girl look like this?
Moreover, from the ghostly aura coming from her body, she was definitely a ghost.
Could it be that she had tidied up this place?
This thought appeared in both Gu Zheng and Xing Cai's minds at the same time.
However, before they could finish their thoughts, the doll in front of them began to move. His originally clear green eyes suddenly became bloodshot and filled with murderous intent.
She stabbed the short stick in her hand into the back of the lantern and a flame instantly rose from the dim lantern. Under the green light of the lantern, the surroundings were illuminated by a ball of green light, appearing somewhat sinister.
"Ah!"
A crisp child's voice came from her mouth. At the same time, she waved the lantern in her hand. A large amount of green light blossomed from the lantern, forming a green curtain in the air that rushed towards Gu Zheng and Xing Cai.
This startled both Gu Zheng and Xing Cai. Although this little doll looked ordinary and harmless, when she attacked, her cultivation was shockingly at the late stage of Jin Xian. This greatly exceeded their expectations.
Since the other party had made a move, Gu Zheng couldn't just sit there and wait.
Blue light appeared in Xing Cai's hand and a ball of blue water also gathered in the water. When the other party's green curtain was pushed to the center, she had already thrown out the blue ball in her hand. It turned into a wall of water that was the same size as the other party and rushed forward.
The two light curtains fiercely rushed towards each other, almost blocking the entire street. The other party's green light was faintly glowing. At a glance, it was clear that it contained a negative magic.
On Xing Cai's side, the water curtains were surging violently. Small waves constantly jumped out of them as the two light curtains collided in the middle.
From Gu Zheng's point of view, the green curtain seemed to have been enveloped by the water curtains and was being devoured bit by bit. In just a breath's time, the green curtain silently disappeared in the air.
Gu Zheng didn't interfere. He just flew up and looked around.
For Xing Cai, taking down this doll-like ghost wasn't a problem, but she had to prevent the other party from escaping. She also had to guard against any enemies that might come here. However, she still gave Xing Cai an order.
"Don't take her life. She didn't seem to have any malicious intent just now!"
"I understand!" Xing Cai's water wall crushed the other party's green curtain in the air and was rushing towards the other party. After hearing this, the powerful magic she had been preparing dissipated from her hand.
When they came here to observe, the baby had been hiding there without any killing intent. However, when the blood moon suddenly surged out, the baby's personality suddenly changed. It was as if he had lost his mind for a moment, and then attacked them.
On this side, Xing Cai's figure rushed forward while she followed behind the water curtain, waiting for an opportunity to act.
On the other hand, Doll did not recognize his own strength at all. He was not a match for the other party at all, and he did not have any intention of retreating either. He was like a madman. Seeing that his magic had been broken, he spun on the spot and green shadows appeared around him. They were like colorful lights that flickered in and out of existence, looking extremely beautiful.
At the same time, a green flame floated out of the lantern and landed on the shadow. Like oil meeting fire, the same green flame rose from her body like a small tornado. Even though the doll had stopped moving and was facing Xing Cai, the green flame on her body was still spinning.
Green flames the size of a palm roared out from within, and in the blink of an eye, dozens of green flames pounced onto the wall of water from above. Accompanied by a thick mist, dozens of holes appeared on the wall of water. Then, it collapsed into a puddle of water and fell from the sky, revealing Starlight behind the wall of water.
A spinning blue ball of water had already appeared in the air. Numerous water swords that exuded a strong water attribute flashed from the ball of water and rushed towards the green flames in the air. Almost every green flame was hit by a water sword.
Water could extinguish fire, and fire could evaporate water. However, when the two were equal in strength, the result would be mutual destruction.
The water swords and green flames collided and disappeared in the air at the same time. Only a bit of green mist was left in the air to prove the existence of the two.
While Xing Cai and the others were in a deadlock, she had already turned around. She quickly went around the roof and came to the doll's side. Looking at the flame tornado on her body, she naturally had a way to deal with it.
Before the other party could react, he flipped his palm again, and a small silver-white whistle appeared in his hand. He threw it into the air, and the whistle suddenly expanded in the air. It was as big as Xiao Ying, and it stopped in the air in an instant.
As the silver light on the whistle shone brightly, a powerful suction force that could be seen with the naked eye came from it and enveloped the flame tornado. The flame tornado's extreme speed suddenly slowed down. The huge flame was sucked up by the suction force and quickly disappeared from the doll's body.
From when Xing Cai went around the doll to when the green flames disappeared in the air, only two breaths of time had passed. At this time, the sky full of green flames and water swords were still colliding in front of the doll.
At this time, the ghost doll looked at the disappearance of the flame around her and Xing Cai, who was very close to her. She was dumbfounded. Although she was in a state of madness, she did not know what to do when she saw the enemy so close to her. She just stretched out the lantern in her hand and swept it towards Xing Cai.
She was stunned. Xing Cai would not let go of this opportunity. She did not care about the attack that was full of flaws at all.
As her body flashed to the side, with a thought, the blue pearl, which had stopped there, appeared above the ghost doll's head almost instantly. Its body expanded and turned into a blue water ball, falling down.
Puff!
The ghost doll was trapped in the next moment. Rays of green light kept rising from her body and she began to struggle madly. However, as Xing Cai's rays of light entered the blue water ball, it was like an iron wall around her. No matter how hard she struggled, she could not break out of it.
Moreover, waves of soft power kept shaking from inside, sticking to the ghost doll's body little by little. In the end, she was suspended in the air, as if she was covered by a layer of blue ice crystals, unable to move.
At this time, Xing Cai breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at the ghost doll that was trapped by her blue pearl magic treasure, she felt proud. If it were in the past, she would not have been able to do it so easily. Now, she felt that she could do it with ease and did not use her full strength at all.
"Well done. This doll looks a little strange. It's best to capture her," Gu Zheng praised. Even if Xing Cai wanted to kill the doll, he would stop her.
At this time, although the ghost doll was trapped in the wrong way, her eyes still showed a hint of madness. Her entire eyeball was blood-red, which was different from the clear feeling he had when he first saw her.
Xing Cai's smile became even brighter. She took a few steps forward and was about to take a closer look at this cute ghost doll when she suddenly heard Gu Zheng's shout.
"Get out of the way!"
Xing Cai did not even think about it. She put on a layer of water shield and quickly rushed forward. She did not think of any counterattack at all.
Just as she left her position, five cold lights appeared in an instant. If it were not for Gu Zheng's warning, Xing Cai's waist would have been grabbed into several pieces. One had to know that Xing Cai did not have any protection at that time. It was also when she was the most relaxed.
Xing Cai felt a gust of wind fly past her. At the same time, the sound of metal clashing came from behind her. She quickly turned her head to look.
At this time, Gu Zheng was fighting a monster. The two of them had exchanged more than a thousand blows in a short period of time. The golden light and purple cold light in the air almost formed a barrier in the air, preventing Xing Cai from seeing their faces clearly.
However, there was no need to see the other party's face because the one in front of her was a ghost. It did not have a face at all.
At this time, the one fighting Gu Zheng was wearing a huge blue bamboo hat. The top of the hat was like a piece of cloth that covered the chest and upper body completely. It was impossible to see the other party's face.
It was wearing a very ordinary long robe and a pair of ordinary cloth shoes. If it were not for the dense ghost energy on its body and a pair of black and purple palms, it would have looked like an ordinary person going out.
Unfortunately, there were a few fingernails on the palms. This was the other party's weapon. When it clashed with Gu Zheng, it did not fall into a disadvantage at all. It was also a ghost at the peak of Jin Xian.
Especially when the other party attacked, when its body twisted and turned, there was not even a trace of wind. It was as if its entire body was the wind.
Thinking about how she had been ambushed, her whole body was covered in cold sweat. If it were not for Gu Zheng's warning, the consequences would have been too terrifying.
At this time, Gu Zheng suddenly said to Xing Cai, who was behind him, "You go and take care of this ghost child. The other party is here to steal it."
At the same time, a burst of energy attacked from behind Gu Zheng, pushing the blue ball in the sky toward Xing Cai. It just so happened to dodge the ghost's surprise attack. It wanted to break the blue ball that was surrounding the ghost child, but Gu Zheng immediately moved and pushed it away, making its wish come to nothing.
"Okay!"
Xing Cai waved her hand, and the blue ball of water came to her back. Xing Cai quickly whispered, and blue aura continuously jumped out of her body. In just a few breaths, the blue aura formed a small cloud above her head.
As she waved her hand downwards, those auras suddenly trembled and turned into sparkling blue jade pillars, one by one inserted around Xing Cai. On each jade pillar, there was a layer of blue water screen between the two.
A simple protective formation was formed, and blue aura continuously rose from it. Although it was not very strong, it would take some time to break it.
Xing Cai did not ask for much. As long as it could block the Dou party for a while, it would be enough for Gu Zheng to come over. Moreover, as long as it was not completely destroyed, she could repair it. It was very suitable for the current situation.
The ghost on the other side was not killing mindlessly. After seeing it, its whole body suddenly pushed back and disappeared into the void.
Before Gu Zheng could be surprised, he felt a sense of danger coming from behind him. The golden light on his body suddenly emerged from his back, like a thick layer of armor. Gu Zheng felt that his hand was halfway through, and he could not continue forward. He could feel the cold air on his back, and goosebumps appeared on his back.
At the same time, Gu Zheng quickly turned his head, only to see a hand disappear in the air. Gu Zheng suddenly rushed forward, and at the same time, the golden light behind him burst out again, forming a dazzling sword aura that scattered behind him and above his head.
However, the expected danger did not come. Gu Zheng steadied himself and looked around, only to discover that the ghost was nowhere to be seen.
However, Gu Zheng did not let his guard down. He stood where he was and carefully sensed his surroundings, afraid that the ghost was hiding around.
After half a day, Gu Zheng relaxed a little. After confirming that the ghost did not want to come over for the time being, it might have realized that it could not take the ghost child away from them, so it left.
However, Gu Zheng felt that the ghost did not leave. It was just lurking around.
With the ghost's skill of hiding, if it did not come close, even Gu Zheng would not be able to sense its existence.
"Did it leave?" Xing Cai asked when she saw Gu Zheng walking over.
"Perhaps they have. However, we have to be careful," Gu Zheng said solemnly as he spoke of his guess.
"Then let's wait here for a while." Xing Cai thought for a moment, then walked out of the water prison and said to Gu Zheng.
"I keep thinking that it's because the blood moon in the sky did not exist before, but it suddenly appeared without warning. Then, the ghost child attacked us crazily."
At this time, the blood mist in the sky had become much thicker. It was like a thin layer of blood mist, but Gu Zheng also sensed it. For him, other than blocking his vision and shortening the time he could use his divine sense to explore, there was no other harm.
The only difference was that Gu Zheng could not disperse it.
"Maybe it's not working on us. Everything here is so strange. Maybe it's something that we don't know about before." Xing Cai also guessed.
Gu Zheng and Xing Cai discussed it, but no one knew. However, they decided to wait and see when the blood moon would go down.
They wanted to see if the ghost child could return to normal at that time. They just hoped that it would not take too long.
A day later, the blood moon disappeared from the sky without warning, and the whole world returned to the way it was when they came in. These changes were so fast, almost in the blink of an eye. There was no warning at all.
Gu Zheng and Xing Cai, who were guarding here, did not go anywhere. When the blood moon disappeared, the two of them looked at the ghost child trapped in the water ball.
On this day, the ghost child tried to struggle, but with Xing Cai constantly replenishing it, it could only maintain its last position, bound there.
When the blood moon disappeared, the blood light in its eyes began to fade almost at the same time. In less than a dozen breaths, the beautiful green eyes appeared in its eyes again, and it seemed to have regained its consciousness.
After seeing that it was trapped in this place, its face was full of panic, and it tried to struggle. It was the opposite of its previous bloodthirsty face.
Unfortunately, in order to prevent any accidents, Xing Cai maintained her strongest state. She could not break free before, so it was impossible for her to do so now.
After struggling for a while, the ghost child inadvertently looked outside. When it saw Gu Zheng and Xing Cai, it seemed to have thought of something. It opened its mouth to speak, but it found that its voice could not be transmitted. It could only look at Gu Zheng and Xing Cai with pitiful eyes, as if it wanted them to let it out.
Xing Cai looked at its face, and her heart almost melted. It was so delicate and cute, and it had such a posture. Xing Cai could not bear it.
However, she still resisted the urge to open it and looked at Gu Zheng who was beside her.
Gu Zheng went through it in his heart, then threw a cyan ring toward the ground. Suddenly, a green light spread out from the ground. He then nodded at Xing Cai.
Xing Cai immediately stopped her magic. Soon, the water ball spat out the ghost child, and it turned into a blue light and was put away by Xing Cai.
Without the biggest restriction, the ghost child emitted a layer of green flame. Soon, it burned through the outer layer of restriction formation and broke free.
The ghost child looked tired, as if it had consumed a lot of energy. After looking at them timidly, a mass of green light suddenly appeared under its body. With a whistling sound, it fled outside.
Gu Zheng seemed to have known that the ghost child had a trick up its sleeve. He did not move and just looked at the ghost child.
As soon as the ghost child left, several cyan lights flickered in the air and suddenly formed a huge cyan net. The ghost child happened to bump into it.
Gu Zheng chuckled. With a slight tug of his hand, Ghost Child's body was pulled back. No matter how hard she struggled, she could not break free. The green net that fell to the ground immediately turned into a rope that wrapped around Ghost Child's body, trapping her in the air.
Without legs, the ghost child was very strange. It seemed that it could not land and could only float in the air.
"Don't eat me, don't eat me!" Ghost Child finally opened his mouth to speak. Tears streamed down from his big watery eyes as he cried at Gu Zheng and the other two.
The drops of green tears evaporated in the air before they fell to the ground.
At this moment, Gu Zheng and Xing Cai were dumbfounded. With this turn of events, they felt that they had become the ones who persecuted the ghost child.
Even though it was a ghost child, it was still a six-year-old child. Even Gu Zheng's heart softened when he saw the ghost child shed tears in front of him.
However, he forced himself to suppress it. If it were not for the fact that he could not sense any trace of magic in the air, he would have suspected that it was the ghost child's trick.
"If you answer us properly, we won't eat you," Gu Zheng said with a stern face and deliberately sounded fierce.
"As long as you don't eat me and don't hurt my grandpa, I'll tell you anything," the ghost child said while sobbing.
After hearing her words, for some reason, Gu Zheng thought of that strange ghost.
"What's your name? Where is this place? Why are you here? "Gu Zheng asked three questions in a row without holding back.
"My name is Xiao Ying. Grandpa gave me this name. I don't know where I am. I was born here," Xiao Ying said nervously, holding the lantern tightly in her hand.
Even the candle flame in the lantern was flickering, as if it was expressing Xiao Ying's feelings.
