Chapter 201 Before Dark (Part 2)
The injured woman was naturally Yuanniang.
She didn't say anything at the moment, because the injuries on her body had already caused her great pain, and she was trying her best to endure the pain at the moment.
Besides, the Ghost King in White and the Ghost King in Purple, after explaining these things to Yuan Niang, they no longer paid attention to this matter. The biggest worry for them at present is whether the scholar can come out of that place before dark. If the scholar cannot come out,
Then the Night Walk of One Hundred Ghosts will come to an end tonight.
"It will get dark soon, less than two hours at most. If the scholar has no way to get out of that place, then do we still need to stop the speed of these hundreds of ghosts walking at night?"
The purple-clothed ghost king frowned, thinking about what she should do, because if the scholar couldn't get out of that place, then no matter whether they did anything to stop the night march of hundreds of ghosts, it would have no impact at all.
Nowadays, it can be said that there are ghosts lurking everywhere in this city. As soon as it gets dark, they will crawl out of the ground. By then, all the surviving humans in the city will become the food of these ghosts.
When these ghosts eat up all the humans in the city, then the ritual will be completed and the Xishan Empress Temple will appear.
At that time, one of the two of them can enter the Xishan Empress Temple.
Even if they are unwilling to make a choice, the situation will force them to make a choice.
"Let's discuss it first. If the scholar can't come out from that place tonight, once the Xishan Empress Temple appears, who among us will go in?" Although the Purple-clothed Ghost King hesitated again and again, she also knew that it was them.
The choices we must face, instead of continuing to wait, waiting for the scholar to come out of that place, waiting for the Night Walk of Hundred Ghosts to be completed, and waiting for the Xishan Niangniang Temple to appear, it is better to discuss these things now to avoid such a situation.
The ending caught them a little by surprise.
The ghost king in white frowned and pondered for a long time, and then slowly said: "It is still too early for us to discuss this matter now. Or we can start discussing it when it is almost dark. If the scholar is here
If we come out before dark, then all these worries we have will not exist."
Although the ghost king in white is also anxious deep down, she can only continue to delay it, because when the final result is not clear, no matter how they discuss it now, it is useless.
It doesn’t mean that after discussing it, they will be able to do it step by step. There will be many changes. Although the scholar is the only one interfering with the speed of the Hundred Ghost Night Walk, if the scholar does not come from that place
came out, but some other relatively powerful beings appeared and interfered with the Night Walk of Hundred Ghosts, so what should I do?
For example, the ghost king and the woman in black hiding in the ancient house in this city are quite powerful. What if they interfere with the progress of the hundred ghosts' night march?
Even if they do not interfere with the process of the Hundred Ghosts' Night Walk, if after the emergence of the Xishan Niangniang Temple, the two of them forcefully break through the seal of the Xishan Niangniang Temple and compete for the opportunity to enter the Xishan Niangniang Temple. By then
, so what?
There are too many unknowns.
Too many changes.
So now the Ghost King in White thinks that all they can do is really wait. As long as the scholar comes out from that place before dark, then they don't need to take the initiative to do anything and just follow the scholar's arrangements.
That’s it.
…
Hu County.
Within the city.
The surviving people.
The things that happened last night plunged the whole city into panic. They gathered under the arrangement of the government officials to prepare to deal with this sudden disaster.
Although they also know that human power is impossible to fight against those ghosts, there will always be some ways when everyone gets together, and those ghosts must be a little scared when they see so many people.
By that time, even if they cannot change the final outcome, they can still delay it for some time. As long as they can delay it for some time, then they can see some hope.
Such a big change has happened here, and the demon-subduing masters outside must have noticed this place a long time ago. Maybe they will take action tonight, so they have to save themselves no matter what, as long as they drag the demon-subduing masters to come,
Then they can be saved.
But they didn't know that what happened in their place was part of the Hundred Ghost Night Parade. The appearance of so many ghosts with the strength of the Ghost King was not something that a few demon subduing masters could solve.
But people always have hope. If there is no hope, how can we talk about tomorrow?
The magistrate of Hu County also summoned the officers and soldiers stationed in Hu County, gathered all the people in the city in the square, and took out the charms he had asked for from some demon subduing masters and pasted them around the square.
But when so many people gather together, there will be some panic, so the magistrate of Hu County told everyone that he had a dream last night, in which a man who looked like a scholar said to him, wait until dark
After that, he will take action to get rid of these ghosts in their county, and as long as they stay in this square, they will be fine.
Although the county magistrate said so, he may not even believe it all.
Although it was just a strange dream, what could a scholar do? Even though he was famous, he was just a scholar, not a demon subduer.
But even though the county magistrate didn't believe it, the dream last night was too bizarre. In his dream, he also saw the scene of the scholar killing the ghost.
The scholar held a huge blue sword and slashed out with one strike. Thousands of the ghosts in the valley were instantly killed.
Such strength is indeed a bit exaggerated. Anyway, the county magistrate felt that this was just a dream, so why should it be too serious?
Although the county magistrate did not think that the crisis they encountered in Hu County could be solved by a scholar, he felt that this should be some kind of omen, indicating that an expert would come to help them get through this tonight.
crisis.
Originally, these people were still full of panic, but when he saw the county magistrate staying with him in this square, the panic in his heart disappeared, because no matter what happened, as long as the county magistrate was here, for them
It means peace of mind.
The sky is gloomy.
As far as the eye can see are patches of scaly dark clouds.
It seems that a heavy rain is brewing.
The sky is getting darker and darker.
But this is not really dark. Instead, it is because the sky is too gloomy and there are too many dark clouds, so the sky turns dark early.
But because the time has not yet arrived, although the sky has turned dark, the ghosts hiding underground have not crawled out from the ground.
But the people in the city really don't know. They just think that as soon as it gets dark, those ghosts will appear.
