"I … I … I …"
The oil lamp kept struggling, trying to escape from Su Li's control. But his efforts were not effective. Instead, he sensed that the two small hands grasping him gradually exerted force, and the old oil lamp suddenly made a sound of being overwhelmed.
The grey-clothed old servant suddenly panicked. If the oil lamp was broken, he would also disappear. His life was hanging by a thread, and he immediately forgot the rules of the book pavilion.
"Mercy! Mercy! This old servant remembers now! You go to the second floor. The information on the second floor is not connected with the first floor. There are many ghosts in red there, and they are all old ghosts who have lived for many years! "
As soon as the words came out, Su Li loosened her hands and threw the oil lamp into the Cang Lei's Cave.
"If what you said is false, I will crush you and make medicine."
The grey-clothed old servant looked at the cave and heard the words. How could he not know what kind of existence he had encountered? He could only sigh repeatedly and admit his bad luck.
Fortunately, what he said just now was all true.
Su Li did not hesitate and directly went up the stairs to the second floor. When she stepped on the soft carpet on the second floor, she felt a gust of chilly wind blowing on her face. All she could see was mist, and the chilly breath was several times stronger than the first floor.
In such a dead space, as soon as the breath belonging to a living person appeared, it was like a lamp in the darkness, and immediately attracted the attention of all ghosts.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
Pairs of blood-red eyes lit up, and their eyes were full of crazy appetite. How long had they not eaten meat?
Su Li did not move, and slowly walked to the bookshelf, as if she did not see those malicious ghosts at all.
The footsteps were extremely harsh in the dead space.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Many malicious ghosts in red were killed. More than a dozen red lights lit up from the darkness. Su Li glanced at them roughly and found there were more than twenty bloody eyes.
Every time she took a step, those bloody eyes would get closer, and some strange appearances were revealed from the darkness. Among them, there were humans, beasts, and odd monsters. Their faces were extremely distorted, and they all stared at every part of Su Li's body.
If an ordinary practitioner came to this step, he would have been frozen to death by the chilly breath that escaped from the malicious ghosts.
Pa!
Suddenly, Su Li stopped. With a smile in her eyes, she looked around at the ferocious ghosts who were less than three meters away from her and said sweetly, "Twenty-four. Who is the oldest?"
The atmosphere froze in that instant, and then all the evil spirits' blood-red bodies exploded. They opened their mouths full of fangs at lightning speed, ferociously and crazily biting the only living person on the scene.
But this time, their food did not have the usual look of fear on its face. Instead, it had a strange smile on its face. Then … a bloody mouth that was larger than all twenty-four of them combined opened up from within the pitch-black shadow.
All the malicious spirits stared at this scene with their mouths agape. Before they could even dodge, they were all swallowed by the bloody mouth.
Whoosh –
The second floor also returned to normal.
When the grey-robed old servant in Cang Lei's Cave saw this scene, his body trembled even more violently, and there were even a few cracks on the lamp body.
"The 24 Red Specters on the second level are all lords who have cultivated for thousands of years, but they've all been … eaten!"
In the moonlight, Su Li's shadow trembled for a while, and then calmed down.
Su Li looked up at the third floor. She was a little unsatisfied, but finally went downstairs and left.
The evil ghosts had eaten enough tonight, and they needed time to digest it.
The next morning, Wen Hun woke up from meditation and came to Su Li's yard for breakfast as usual.
"Senior Fellow Apprentice, I made a new lean meat porridge today. Come and have a taste."
Seeing the familiar smile of his junior sister apprentice, Wen Hun felt a little relieved. He walked to the table and sat down. When he was about to pick up the spoon, he suddenly felt something and looked out of the room.
He didn't know when Senior Sister Apprentice Yue in black stood at the door, looking at him coldly.
Wen Hun was slightly shocked. Why did Senior Sister Apprentice Yue come out from the deep mountain at this time?
"Senior Sister Apprentice?"
Wen Hun stood up. The woman in black took a deep look at him and motioned him to keep up. Then she flew to the book pavilion.
"Did something happen in the book pavilion this time?"
Wen Hun's heart sank, and he immediately put down his chopsticks to keep up.
"Sure enough, there is a connection between the book pavilion and the deep mountain …"
Su Li's eyes flashed, and she also flew to keep up.
After a while, the three of them came to the book pavilion. Several disciples of the Sect were waiting at the door.
"Senior Fellow Apprentice Wen, you finally come!"
An ordinary-looking middle-aged man in Zhuji Realm greeted them. He called Wen Hun, who looked like a teenager, senior fellow apprentice, which sounded very strange.
Su Li glanced at him strangely. Wen Hun smiled embarrassedly, "Don't look at me like this. If other senior fellow apprentices and senior sister apprentices don't show up, I will be the chief disciple of the Sect."
"Senior Fellow Apprentice, you are so awesome."
Su Li's eyes were bright, which made Wen Hun's face hot. Fortunately, the words of the middle-aged man came in time to save the situation.
"Senior Fellow Apprentice, go in and have a look. The book pavilion is in a mess!"
Wen Hun nodded with a serious look and walked into the book pavilion. Suddenly, he saw a ruin. The morning light shone down, and there was a faint smell of decay.
"Senior Fellow Apprentice, when I and junior fellow apprentices came to light the incense in the morning, the first and second floors became like this. It seems that they have been abandoned for many years. It's very strange!"
Wen Hun walked to the ruins, and could vaguely see the traces of bookshelves in the ruins. He waved his hand, and a tattered miscellaneous book flew out automatically. But before it fell into his hand, it turned into flying ash and scattered.
When the middle-aged disciple saw this scene, he immediately widened his eyes and said repeatedly, "That's it! All the books seem to be corroded by time and turn into ashes. "
Wen Hun frowned tightly. He, who knew some of the truth, certainly saw it more deeply than the middle-aged disciple.
"Senior Fellow Apprentice, why does Senior Sister Apprentice Yue disappear?"
Su Li suddenly said. Wen Hun immediately woke up. He looked up and didn't see the figure of the woman in black.
"Senior Sister Apprentice Yue?"
The middle-aged disciple was slightly stunned, and immediately said, "I didn't see Senior Sister Apprentice Yue. I was about to send someone to find you. Senior Fellow Apprentice, you happened to come here."
Wen Hun frowned more tightly. Since the Master left, the Sect had many misunderstandings. All kinds of evil spirits came out to make trouble. Although he didn't know whether the "Senior Sister Apprentice Yue" just now was true, he didn't bother to investigate it since she didn't act maliciously.
Thinking of this, he waved to Su Li to let Su Li follow him to the second floor.
Wen Hun originally thought that the strength of ghosts on the second floor would not destroy too many bookshelves. But when he saw the empty and bare space on the second floor, he couldn't help twitching his mouth.
What on earth happened here last night?
Why was it worse than the first floor? All the pneumas of ghosts disappeared completely.
"Master will come back half a month later. If he sees that the first and second floors of the book pavilion are destroyed, what will he think?"
Wen Hun sighed secretly and was about to go downstairs.
"Senior Fellow Apprentice, don't we go up and have a look?"
Su Li looked back at the second floor. A few evil ghosts hiding in the dark immediately hid in a darker place …
"No, we can find more clues on the first floor. Come with me. I have something to tell you."
"Okay, Senior Fellow Apprentice."
Wen Hun's voice came from downstairs. Su Li responded crisply and walked downstairs cheerfully. At the moment when she went downstairs, she could faintly hear a group of little ghosts breathing with relief.
"The book pavilion is the hiding place of many ghosts. The power of ghosts in these books is all extracted, so it becomes what it is now."
Wen Hun spread out a book of Essays and transmitted the sound to guide Su Li, "And I can barely keep it from dispersing with the power of Ghost Chapter. Look through it and see if there is an ending to the story in it."
Su Li opened it according to his words, and immediately saw the ending of the first story. She read it out.
"Deep in the desolate and uninhabited mountains, there are countless wild spirits and monsters. How could weak women survive alone? They were just mortals who were killed while passing through this place. After they died, they were unwilling to become evil spirits, so they lured the living to become their food … The scholar didn't know that after being eaten by the three female ghosts, not even his soul was left behind."
The ending of the story not only appeared, but also talked about the story of human and ghost without any taboo.
"Sure enough! The ghosts on the first and second floor of the book pavilion have all left. "
Wen Hun's face was a little gloomy. Those ghosts would not step out of the book pavilion for thousands of years, and they only moved at night. Why did they suddenly violate the agreement and leave?
He didn't think those things would be destroyed. As far as he knew, no one could defeat those ghosts. Even the Master would only compromise with them, make unfair deals one after another, and even let those things devour the disciples of the Sect.
The Immortal Cultivation Sect was a fragile shell wrapped around the ghosts. It was okay for the ghosts to sleep. If they completely woke up one day … no one could survive!
The Human Clan was too fragile …
Wen Hun clenched his fists and looked up at the ignorant junior sister apprentice. He took a deep breath and dismissed the other disciples. Then he walked to the two stone lions in front of the gate of the book pavilion and stood still.
"Come out. I'm Wen Hun. I have something to ask you."
As soon as the words came out, the two stone lions suddenly shook.
Su Li's eyes narrowed. The pneuma of these two ghosts was so weak that she could hardly perceive it. Last night, the pneuma of the malicious ghost in red was too strong, so she didn't perceive it.
However, she just stood here.
Su Li's eyes flickered, and there was a trace of playfulness in her eyes.
The two stone lions suddenly shook more violently, but they didn't dare to pretend to be dead. They could only show two bitter faces. When one of the human-faced lions was about to speak, it heard Su Li's sound transmission.
"If you dare to expose me, I will eat you."
The stone lion stared at her and almost bit his tongue. He immediately swallowed the words in his mouth and changed his words, "Lord Wen Hun, what do you want to ask?"
Wen Hun was stunned, and a strange expression appeared in his eyes. Although the two stone lions were extremely weak ghosts, every time they talked to him, they always raised their noses and wanted to step on his head. Why were they so … humble this time?
"Did the Master win back a little face for us this time?"
Wen Hun was puzzled, but he didn't care much about the matter of the book pavilion. He said in a low voice, "What happened in the book pavilion last night? Tell me everything you saw. "
The twisted face of the stone lion paused for a moment, and then seemed to be instructed by something. He immediately said, "Lord Wen Hun, the ghosts in red on the first and second floor were all … all … dead last night!!"
