My ability pool is superior to others

Chapter 144: All under control?
The old woman returned to the team, and her face looked a little ugly.

Due to the influence of the unknown, it is impossible to pull out Mr. Bai Shisi to support the situation, which is equivalent to having no support.

If we just rely on burning incense and borrowing magic, the situation will not be optimistic no matter how we look at it.

After all, in the eyes of the old woman, there were only five people on the scene, two of whom were apprentices, and they obviously could not be relied upon.

She turned to look at Lu Bai: "Xiao Lu, what do you think?"

"Yes, since the Fourteenth Master said from the beginning that you would lead this trip."

Shi Xiangtou subconsciously wiped the goose bumps on his arms: "You have to come up with an idea."

"Since they won't let us go anyway, why don't we just walk around the village first?"

Lu Bai's mentality was quite stable, and he even smiled while speaking.

His calm demeanor made the two incense masters present calm down a lot.

"Let's go and see what the villagers are doing now."

As he spoke, he walked towards Xiaoli's house at the entrance of the village.

The old woman and Shi Xiangtou looked at each other, raised no objections, and followed Lu Bai one after the other.

Even if the remaining two fighters had some other ideas, faced with such a situation, they had no choice but to follow.

No matter what, it is safer to stay with the incense masters than to wander around alone.

I walked through the wooden fence surrounding the house and came to the door.

The door was ajar and could be opened with a little force.

As soon as the door was pushed open, a biting cold wind blew in the face, making people feel extremely uncomfortable.

There was no light in the room and it was pitch black.

This actually draws people's attention to the God of Wealth Building at the base of the wall, because there are faint ghost lights floating inside the building.

"Did he escape or..."

The old woman approached cautiously, but did not sense the presence of the guardian deity in the God of Wealth Tower.

Lu Bai walked to the front of the God of Wealth Building and squatted down: "There were no signs before the incident, so I guess he didn't escape."

The so-called four major gates, to put it nicely, are immortals, but to put it bluntly, they are actually a group of animals that have become spirits.

Evil spirits and immortals are essentially the same, the only difference is whether they are lawful or chaotic.

Since they don't follow the rules, Lu Bai will not be surprised by anything they do.

"Lü Xiangtou, come out and take a look."

Shi Xiangtou stood at the door with a look of horror on his face.

"?"

Lu Bai stood up and walked to the door, looking in the direction Shi Xiangtou was looking.

It turned out that a large number of figures suddenly appeared on the gravel road in the village.

A rough count showed that there were about three to four hundred people.

So many people were crowded on the not-so-wide gravel road, and it looked quite spectacular.

Moreover, some of them looked familiar to Lu Bai. They were all villagers from Liujia Village, but he didn't know why some of them were missing.

The villagers no longer had their previous enthusiasm. All of them had expressionless faces and staggered towards where Lu Bai and the others were.

The villagers had empty eyes, without any human emotions.

Looking at this scene, even the old lady who claimed to be knowledgeable felt a sense of panic.

The group of villagers gradually drew closer, and against the backdrop of the night, it seemed as if something was hiding in the crowd, secretly watching them.

Lu Bai breathed a sigh of relief: "Go out first, don't stay in the house."

Normally speaking, although there are many villagers, if they really want to take ruthless action, Shi Xiangtou and the old woman alone are enough to deal with them.

The problem is that these villagers act so strangely, obviously they are controlled by evil spirits, and it is hard to bear to attack these innocent villagers. The best solution is to find the evil spirits behind this mess and kill them.

When they arrived outside the wooden fence, Lu Bai waved his head to signal Shi Xiangtou and the others to follow him around to the back of the crowd.

He trotted all the way, circling along the edge of the village, occasionally slowing down his pace, making handprints and throwing down a few grains of glutinous rice.

Lu Bai asked casually: "What other methods can you use now?"

"Except for the need for a way to light incense, everything else is fine."

Shi Xiangtou gave his answer without hesitation.

When he realized that he could not summon Master Bai Shisi to the battlefield, he immediately verified the skills at hand.

All I can say is that the restrictions in this area are not as strict as imagined. It will only cause the incense to be extinguished, and the magic power of the immortals can still be borrowed.

"Yes, we still have the strength to resist."

No matter what the old woman really thought, at least what she said was quite morale-boosting.

Lu Bai nodded and turned his attention back to the crowd.

Their actions did not cause any extreme reaction from the villagers. They just followed their figures and turned their heads slowly.

The large group of villagers were like puppets, and their steps were extremely slow. If it were just like this, they would not pose much threat to them.

The evil spirits mixed in with the villagers seemed to be aware of this and quickly took corresponding measures.

Suddenly a strange cry was heard from the crowd.

The strange scream sounded like fingernails scratching on a blackboard, making people feel extremely uncomfortable.

But with the appearance of this strange cry in the crowd, the chilly wind suddenly became several times stronger, causing the fence outside the dilapidated tile house to creak.

In the shadows of the village, there seemed to be some inexplicable things.
The darkness and coldness around Lu Bai and the others penetrated deeper into their bones, and the joints of their bodies became as stiff as if they had been iced.

“…This won’t work.”

The old woman even had difficulty speaking: "We can't hide any longer. We must find a way to fight back."

Lu Bai stopped and slowly straightened his clothes.

He said with a smile: "It's time to counterattack."

"Have you thought of a solution?" Shi Xiangtou's eyes lit up.

"Why do you think this evil spirit suddenly intensified its offensive?"

Without waiting for Shi Xiangtou to give an answer, Lu Bai took the initiative to explain: "This proves that it is anxious."

"What do you mean?"

"Among the four great sects of Hu, Huang, Bai and Liu, only the Hu sect is able to control so many people at once."

As Lu Bai spoke, he made a hand seal and then stretched it to Shi Xiangtou's mouth: "Come on."

Shi Xiangtou recognized the handprint and immediately realized what Lu Bai was planning.

He took a long breath: "Oh~oh~oh~"

He imitated the sound of a rooster crowing, and Lu Bai controlled and amplified the volume.

At the same time, similar noises were heard from several other directions of the village.

Since I can't find a rooster, I have no choice but to try this method.

is that useful?
Have!
And the effect is extremely obvious.

As the saying goes, the world becomes bright when the rooster crows.

A fake chicken is still a chicken.

It was obvious that the villagers gathered on the gravel road all broke free from their puppet state after hearing the noise coming from all directions.

Although they did not wake up immediately, they all looked dazed and did not move according to the evil spirit's instructions.
