"That evil ghost is so cunning. He used a trick to break my altar. Humph, I have a purple gold gourd in my hand. As long as you dare to come out, you will definitely be included in the treasure and sacrifice to the real fire!"

Taoist Ling Xiao gritted his teeth in anger and looked angry. He didn't expect that he would be fooled by a demon today.

“Hahahahaha~~!”

Suddenly,

A rampant ghost laughter came from the air, with sharp and harsh voices, gloomy and terrifying, and a huge sound echoed over the entire county government.

The county magistrate hid in the Land Temple. When he heard this sound, he was so scared that he was under the altar. He held the statue of the Land God tightly in his arms, and kept muttering about the blessing of the Land God. Now he was really scared by the evil ghost and was about to break down his mind.

The other runners of the county yamen hid in the room, squeezed together to cover their mouths, and none of them dared to speak out, for fear that they would attract evil spirits to take their lives.

Taoist Master Ling Xiao's eyebrows and eyes narrowed, his peach wood sword in his hand pointed at the sky, and shouted loudly: "Who is the monster? Show up quickly? If you have the intention of repentance, I will recite a mantra for you to rebirth and send you into the cycle of reincarnation. You can be reborn as a human being in the next life. If you do not repent, I will practice the way for heaven today and kill you, a demon who harms others!"

"It's a joke to do things for heaven. Do you know how many evil things the county magistrate did."

While speaking, a huge figure appeared in the air, more than meter long, with a green glow all over his body and a ferocious face. He stared at Taoist Ling Xiao with big eyes and asked angrily.

When Master Ling Xiao saw Zhu Guang, his heart trembled slightly. He had such a solid ghost energy. No wonder he was so powerful. I am afraid that this evil ghost will really advance to the Ghost King in a short time.

He had told the Wang County Magistrate that he had captured the Ghost King, and it was true. However, at that time he was with his master, and the protagonist was his master. His master had much stronger magic power than him. He asked him to do it himself, but he was not able to deal with a Ghost King alone.

What a pity, the master has gone.

But now I can't be afraid. Besides, he still has a baby purple gold gourd.

"Ghosts are ghosts, people are humans. If you want to sue, go to the underworld to find Yan Jun. If others are wrong, they will judge after they die, but you can't harm others privately." Taoist Master Ling Xiao said righteously.

"What an old man, I can really argue. I've collected the money and protected the corrupt official. I'll talk about it after he dies. Do you have to wait for him to die? Isn't it nice to take his life by myself?" the evil ghost roared.

Taoist Master Ling Xiao was furious, "That Tao will accept you!"

As he said that, he took out the soul-suppressing bell, muttering something in his mouth, singing the exorcism curse, the ringtone vibrated, and magic ripples came out, hitting Zhu Guang's body, and Zhu Guang felt a little pain in his head.

Just as he was about to retreat, the Taoist talisman given to him by Jiang Hao suddenly rose up a layer of protection on him, blocking the power of the spell outside. Zhu Guang suddenly felt that it was okay. He only thought that the spell that the Taoist priest recited at this moment was to listen to the sutra.

Zhu Guangxin said that the young master is still very powerful.

"Taoist, come with your life!"

Zhu Guang roared angrily and raised his claws to rush down. Taoist Master Ling Xiao was startled by the change. Ordinary ghosts would avoid and escape when they heard the ringtone, or dared not come forward. Why was this guy not affected at all?

Without time to think about it, the evil ghost had already rushed forward, and Taoist Master Ling Xiao raised his peach wood sword in his hand and stabbed it out.

Just as the Taomu sword was about to stab Zhu Guang, Zhu Guang suddenly had a kitchen knife on his hand and slashed hard at the Taomu sword.

"Click!"

Taoist Master Ling Xiao used the magic weapon Tao Wood Sword for decades, and was split in half at this moment, completely dead.

"Ah~~My magic sword!"

He has been raising this sword for decades and is the second only to the purple gold gourd among his many magic weapons. Taoist Master Ling Xiao's heart was so painful that he thrust.

Wood is wood, even if it is cultivated into magic weapons, it is also wood. It is useful for dealing with ghosts, but when faced with real gold and iron, it will be broken in an instant.

He never expected that this evil ghost actually had a treasure. Looking at the sharp blade and steel knife in the ghost's hand, he remembered a word, ghost weapon.

The master once told him that there are very few ghosts with ghost tools, and every ghost with ghost tools is much stronger than the same ghost.

Taoist Master Ling Xiao was really scared at this moment. He trembled and pinched the magic trick, refined the small gourd, and recited a spell in his mouth, "The treasure has spirits, you can restrain ghosts and collect souls, collect!"

The little gourd flew towards Zhu Guang, aiming the mouth of the gourd at the Zhu Guang ghost body. Zhu Guang only felt that he was tightly imprisoned and could not move. A powerful suction force pulled him hard, and the Zhu Guang ghost body quickly shrank and flew towards the gourd mouth.

Master Ling Xiao was overjoyed when he saw this scene. It was because the magic weapon left by the ancestor was powerful, so he immediately took the evil spirit.

But just as he was about to relax, he saw a golden light suddenly rise from the ghost's body. The golden light directly broke through the gourd's confinement, and the ghost's body suddenly became larger.

"You dare to capture your grandfather, go to yours."

"Bang!"

Zhu Guang waved his pig-killing knife and slapped the purple gold gourd in the air. The small gourd flew towards the sky like a golf ball hit, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

No one saw that the two kestrels had been waiting in the air. When they saw the little gourd flying over, they chased after him. They grabbed the gourd in the air without turning their heads towards Qingxi Town.

When Master Ling Xiao saw that he lost his treasure, he felt so distressed that he didn't want to live anymore. But when he saw the evil ghost coming with a kitchen knife, he was so scared that he was shocked. He hit his palm out and shouted "Five Thunder Palms" in his mouth!

Zhu Guang suffered from the Five Thunder Palm. He was beaten by Jiang Hao that day and was in great pain. He heard the three words "Five Thunder Palm" and was so scared that he flashed back.

"Advisors, the evil ghosts are so powerful. Come and retreat as your master. Then come and kill demons again."

Taoist Master Ling Xiao took this opportunity and turned around and ran away. The two Taoist boys were not slow either. It was obvious that the master and apprentice practiced a lot of tricks on weekdays, and the master and apprentice rushed out of the county government in a blink of an eye.

Zhu Guang saw the Taoist priest running away and did not chase him. The young master told him to beat the Taoist priest. The matter was over. Zhu Guang flew into the air and shouted at the direction of the Land Temple: "Wang Dengzhi, if you have the ability, you should always hide in the Land Temple and don't come out, otherwise you will be able to take your life sooner or later."

After saying that, he disappeared.

Everyone in the county yamen heard the last warning from the evil ghost, including the yamen runners and the county magistrates hiding in the land temple.

The county magistrate shivered violently, and couldn't help but pee again. At this moment, he collapsed and cried bitterly while holding the statue of the Land God.

"Who am I provoking? Although I am greedy for money, I am too unfair to blame others. I really don't remember harming this person!"

After waiting for a while, when the evil ghost was no longer making a fuss, the master brought two yamen runners to the land temple and shouted softly through the door: "Master, that evil ghost seems to have left, do you want to come out?"

"No, I am in this temple and I don't go anywhere." The county magistrate shouted.

"Master, what do you think?" asked the master.

"Continue to ask the mage, please the best mage. You must catch the evil ghost, otherwise my life will not be guaranteed sooner or later." The county magistrate said loudly.

"Yes, but the famous mages nearby, namely the Master of Lamtuo Temple and Master Ling Xiao of Xuanyuan Temple, are not as good as evil ghosts, and they are even more powerful and hard to find!" The master said worriedly.

"If you pay a lot of money to hire a master wizard to catch ghosts, those who provide master clues will also receive a bounty." The county magistrate said.

......

Taoist Master Lingxiao ran out with his two apprentices, in an extremely embarrassed manner. Finally, he stopped in a street. The master and apprentice gasped. After his expression was calm, Taoist Master Lingxiao sighed.

This transaction was a big loss. I didn’t make any money, and I also lost the talisman that I had reserved for half a year and the peach wood sword. The most important thing is that I lost the treasure of the ancestor, the purple gold gourd left by the ancestor. It was the treasure of Xuanyuan Temple. Now I have been lost by myself. What should I do?

But saving your life is important now, so I dare not delay it. I pulled up two little disciples and continued to run forward. The evil ghost was too powerful. I will escape today's disaster first.

The evil ghost killed the purple gold gourd, but I didn't know where it fell. I secretly visited it in the future and might be able to find it back.

But he didn't know. At this moment, he thought that the little gourd that he had fallen into something, was unable to hold on to the point of playing with it in his hands.

Looking through the gourd in my hand, this gourd should be made of gold and red copper alloy, commonly known as purple gold. The gourd is carved with complex patterns, which is very mysterious. Jiang Hao guessed that it should be some kind of formation rune. Because of the long-term playing with it, the gourd was polished to a shiny tiles and very beautiful.

Through the observation of the two kestrels, Jiang Hao saw that the Taoist was using Zhu Guang, and Zhu Guang was almost sucked into the gourd. If it weren't for the amulet he gave him to burst out and protected Zhu Guang and escaped, he might have been taken by the gourd.

The Taoist had shown this treasure with County Magistrate Wang, saying that he was able to control the souls of ghosts. In this way, the main function of this gourd should be to collect ghosts.

He remembered that the Taoist priest also said that True Fire Sacrifice and Refining, and I am afraid that this gourd will have the ability to sacrifice and refine ghosts.

He was dealing with Zhu Guangshi and recited a spell, "The treasure has spirits, and you can conquer ghosts and collect souls!"

Jiang Hao only knows so much now.

This gourd can easily collect Zhu Guang. If it weren't for its own Taoist talisman, Zhu Guang would be taken immediately. Taoist Lingxiao's cultivation is not high, but he can drive the gourd to easily catch Zhu Guang. In this way, this magic weapon should be good.

Afterwards, we will study it slowly and fill it with the purple gold gourd.

Not long after, Zhu Guang came back and bowed to Jiang Hao, "Young Master, Zhu Guang is back."

"It's done well, go and practice." Jiang Hao nodded with a smile.

Zhu Guang sat obediently in the yard and meditated cross-leggedly, practicing the cultivation method that Jiang Hao taught him. Although it took only a few days to do so, Zhu Guang felt that his strength had improved a lot, which made him practice harder and harder.

......

The next day,

Some yamen runners posted notices at the city gate.

"If the evil ghosts in this county are harming each other, if you hire a master of Tao to catch ghosts and eliminate demons, you will be rewarded with a lot of money. If anyone provides information about a master, you will report to the county government and you will also be rewarded for success."

Finally, the county government seal.

The people in the city stood in front of the bulletin board, and they were talking about it one by one.

"I heard that Taoist Master Ling Xiao was beaten by the evil ghost last night and ran away with his head in his arms. He was so embarrassed. The monk and Taoist priest came, but he couldn't even hold him in it. This evil ghost is so powerful!"

"Now the county magistrate hides in the land temple and dares not come out. Can our county test be carried out?" Some scholars worried.

"There are still ten days left before the exam. I think there will be a mage who will catch the evil ghost during this period." Someone said.

However, for three consecutive days, no master came, and the county government did not find a real master. Others heard that the evil ghost defeated the miserable master of Lantuo Temple and the Taoist Ling Xiao of Xuanyuan Temple. They asked themselves that those who were not as good as them, so they naturally did not dare to die.

The county magistrate hid in the land temple and dared not come out. He was anxious and kept ordering the master to expand his scope and search.

The county yamen runners were also sent out to look for ghost-catching experts everywhere, but found nothing.

Every day, the evil ghosts will visit the county government. The county magistrate hurried in the land temple and did not dare to show his head. The evil ghosts cried and howled, and then retreated.

The county magistrate is not crazy. Those yamen runners feel like they are going crazy. Many people have ideas and want to quit their jobs and refuse to do it.

On that day, Jiang Hao came to the county town in a carriage. He first stopped at the city gate, looked at the notice, and a chuckled on his face, and then drove the car to the county government.

When the yamen runner saw Jiang Hao parked his car at the main entrance of the yamen, he pointed and said, "Hey hey hey hey, that scholar, this is not a place to park."

Jiang Hao smiled and said, "I'll come to see the county magistrate."

"Are you?" The yamen runner looked at Jiang Hao in surprise.

"Haha, please inform the county magistrate and say that scholar Jiang Hao has a way to catch the evil ghost." Jiang Hao said.
Chapter completed!
