Chapter 1532: Encountering a ghost again?
Li Chengxi always kept Yang Yiyi away from matters in the North because he also felt that the North was very difficult to deal with.

This is different from the Western Regions and Southern Xinjiang.

Although the Western Regions are coming with great force, they are internally unstable due to the existence of the Sirius Cult. Moreover, the countries in the Western Regions have their own ulterior motives and cannot work together. In the end, they are just a loose sand and a paper tiger that looks scary.

Now that the Sirius Cult has been eliminated, we just need to keep an eye on the movements at the border.

The southern border is even more scattered, with all the tribes there. Unless a great wizard appears who can unite all the tribes, it will not pose any threat to the Central Plains.

The North is the most different.

After all, the people in southern Xinjiang and the Western Regions are not of the same ethnic group as those in the Central Plains. Their living habits and appearances are very different. All they want is the fertile land of the Central Plains.

And what about the North?

The people in the north were originally from the Central Plains. They were initially exiled to the freezing cold north. Later, more and more of them came, and thus the north was formed.

Every northerner has a dream of returning to the Central Plains, and what they want is not just a piece of land.

At least in terms of fighting spirit, their will is much higher than that of people in the Western Regions and Southern Xinjiang.

Even if we don't look at the military issues, there is also a Fengyun Village in the north.

Yang Yiyi had never dealt with them before. She only heard that it was a village formed by the union of a large number of bandits in the north, and was a bandit den similar to the Sixteenth Village.

The leader of this bandit group has unfathomable martial arts skills. Shen Qingluo's cousin Shen Qingshuang is on par with her in terms of martial arts, and even she is just a younger brother of the leader of the village.

Li Chengxi estimated that even if this grandson's fighting skills were not as good as Jiang Fengyue's, they would definitely not be far behind.

Yang Yiyi definitely cannot be allowed to go to such a dangerous place.

That's why Li Chengxi has been trying to make Yang Yiyi ignore the problems in the North.

But now it seems that it can no longer be ignored.

Li Chengxi said he had a headache.

Yang Yiyi was very interested in this, and even Wu Shaoyi seemed interested as well.

If Wujiazhuang could stand up in the fight against the North, its reputation would also be greatly enhanced. Wu Shaoyi was looking forward to this.

However, Li Chengxi doesn't need to worry now. After all, the two of them don't plan to change their itinerary. They will talk about it after the trip is over.

–‐‐——–‐‐——

The night gradually deepened. When we arrived at Podao Temple, it was just getting dark. Now, with the wind and rain subsiding, the time gradually approached the hour of Yin.

Only a few charcoal were still burning in the bonfire, but Wang Biaotou brought candles with him, so they could burn longer and the Taoist temple would not be completely dark.

Yang Yiyi once again demonstrated her ability to fall asleep anywhere. She leaned against a big pillar and slept so soundly that she felt almost unconscious.

Wu Shaoyi didn't sleep.

Although Wang Biaotou was someone they knew, they still had to be on guard. Yang Yiyi watched over him in the first half of the night, while Wu Shaoyi naturally stayed awake in the second half.

Even if we don't guard against Wang Biaotou and his men, who knows who will come to this ruined temple deep in the mountains, so it's certainly not wrong to be a little cautious.

In fact, Captain Wang also left people to guard the night to prevent a group of bandits from rushing in to rob the escort and catching them off guard.

In a little while, it will be the Mao hour, and Yang Yiyi should wake up. In fact, Yang Yiyi usually wakes up around 6:30 in the Yin hour. (Around 4:30)
This time, because I stayed up for the first half of the night, I need to sleep a little longer.

Wu Shaoyi raised her head from the book and she seemed to feel a breeze.

But when he looked up, he only saw a few escort officers on guard at the side of Escort Leader Wang, leaning against a pillar with knives in their arms.

The wind and rain outside had obviously subsided, with only a drizzle left.

It might be the wind blowing in from the rotten door, Wu Shaoyi didn't pay much attention to it, and lowered his head to read again. At this time, there was a slight clattering sound from the beams.

It should be said that the escort was indeed alert. It sounded like the sound of a mouse, which made Wang the escort leader and several escorts around him open their eyes at the same time.

"It looks like a mouse. Let's go to sleep. It should be alright."

Wang Biaotou looked at the roof and confirmed that there was nothing there, and asked everyone to close their eyes for a while.

However, at this moment, two loud bangs were heard, and the rotten door panel seemed to be blown open by a strong wind. The wind speed was so high that everyone felt it difficult to breathe in an instant.

The candle next to the incense table was blown out at once, and the entire dilapidated Taoist temple fell into darkness in an instant.

Along with the wind came a cool feeling.

It didn't feel like the cool breeze was coming from the wind, but rather like someone was lying behind us and blowing air into our necks, giving us goose bumps.

One of the escorts stood up, cursing and preparing to get up to close the door, probably because the wind disturbed his sweet dream.

But Wang Biaotou said sternly:
"Stay, don't move!"

Then he blew up the fire stick in the dark and said loudly:

"May I ask which route you are from? The Xingyuan Escort Agency is passing by here and would like to make friends."

The voice of Wang Biaotou echoed in the ruined Taoist temple, but there was no response.

"Captain, could it be that we really encountered a ghost? I heard that the time before dawn is the most likely to encounter ghosts."

"Stop talking nonsense."

The last time it seemed like there was a ghost in this dilapidated Taoist temple, it was actually the people from the Sixteen Villages who were playing tricks.

This Taoist temple looks like a haunted house, but in fact there shouldn't be any ghosts.

After all, there are three conditions for the formation of undead creatures: they cannot be exposed to the sun periodically, there is sufficient negative energy, and there are corpses or people have died here.

This Taoist temple had been cleaned up a long time ago, and I didn't see any blood when I came in. It's unlikely that someone died here, so how could there be a ghost?

What's more, Wang Biaotou had passed by here not long ago, and it has been less than two months. Someone must be playing tricks.

Then he shouted again:
"If my friend is short of money, I can help him out. I hope you will give me some face."

When escorting a caravan, in most cases they do so out of respect for their fellow road lords, and rarely resort to physical combat, because physical combat will result in casualties, and if you are warlike in this line of work, you will not live long.

But there was still no response to Wang Biaotou's words. Instead, the incense table not far away from the crowd began to vibrate as if dancing a disco.

The incense table was placed in front of the statues of the Three Pure Ones. It was made of nanmu wood and was quite heavy, but it was constantly vibrating and bouncing.

Wang Biaotou held up the fire starter and could see clearly that there was no mechanism controlling it.

Could it be that I really encountered an evil spirit?
Wang Biaotou was a little worried, but he couldn't panic.

He shouted loudly, restraining everyone:
"Don't panic. Even if it is an evil spirit, it is just some small ghost that is not worthy of being on the stage. You are afraid of it, but it is more afraid of you!"

That's true. Apart from the scary factor, ghosts are not difficult to deal with most of the time.

But almost at the same time as Wang Biaotou spoke, a black shadow floated down from above, like smoke or fog, not like a solid entity, and grabbed directly towards Wang Biaotou's head.

"Be careful, Escort Leader!"

When Wang Biaotou looked up, he saw a shadow with a green face and fangs, which did not look like a living person. He was also frightened at the time.

Fortunately, Wang Biaotou was in good health. If he was old and weak, he would probably get sick after being frightened like this.
