Poor Taoist Qiu Chuji

Chapter 269 Supernatural Explosion

"Yang Guo! Why don't you go over and call mom?" Qiu Chuji turned around and said to Yang Guo who had an angry face.

Hearing this, Yang Guo not only did not become more indignant, but instead calmed down. After all, he was not just Yang Guo, and the emotions that originally belonged to Yang Guo could not affect his rational judgment for too long.

He took a look at the card storage pool and found that the 'Xiang Shaolong' card that he had high hopes for was still there. So there was no doubt that the card he had just merged was the 'Ghosts Playing with You: Ken' from the Yin Yang Road. Now that he had a physique that was prone to encountering ghosts, it was no wonder that he would encounter such a 'female ghost' at this time.

Although they are both time travelers, Yang Guo is currently unaware of the ghost girl's true identity.

After all, although Jin-style martial arts are widely circulated in the Chinese world, most people have not even read the novels, and have only watched some versions of TV dramas, not to mention knowing such a little-known fact as Yang Guo's original mother 'Qin Nanqin'.

Ding Peng's card had been integrated. Yang Guo no longer had to put on airs. A smile appeared on his face. He quietly approached Qiu Chuji and whispered, "Master... Grandmaster! What is the origin of this... female ghost? Is she powerful? Can I beat her?"

Qiu Chuji glanced at Yang Guo. Although he was a little surprised at how his attitude changed so quickly, he still responded, “Except for your previous blow, which might have had a little effect on her, other means can’t hurt her at all.”

The internal force and true qi in the low-level martial arts world are of relatively low quality. If they cannot rise to the level of Gangqi and Zhenqi, the damage to ghosts and monsters is almost equal to nothing. Of course, some true qi with attributes such as yang, fire, and lightning can have a certain damage bonus, but the effect will not be particularly obvious.

Qin Nanqin is between Xiyi and Xiyi. Although compared with normal ghosts, the remaining self-awareness and thinking logic are thinner and more chaotic, it also means that this kind of existence must be affected by higher-level energy in order to be influenced.

Qiu Chuji said that the Divine Sword Slash could affect Qin Nanqin because the special sword intent contained in the Divine Sword Slash had the characteristic of targeting the soul. The sword intent could play a role, but the sword energy and sword light driven by the sword intent had no effect.

“Is that so?” Yang Guo felt somewhat regretful and even more uneasy.

He drew the wrong card and was about to encounter ghosts again and again. If he didn't have any special means to deal with ghosts, then he could only sit and wait for death.

Is it really the same as Ken, where one turns into a ghost after death, in order to consider the newly fused card as fused?
"Then... Master! As Taoist priests, it is reasonable for you to be able to catch ghosts!" Yang Guo asked Qiu Chuji tentatively again.

Qiu Chuji replied: "Whether other Taoists can catch ghosts or not, I don't know, but your ancestor does have some skills in catching ghosts and demons."

Yang Guo's eyes lit up when he heard this. Although he didn't know what this Qiu Chuji was like, but the other party said that he had a way to deal with ghosts. If he was not exaggerating, then as long as he held on to the thigh of this Master Qiu, he would be able to get through this hurdle safely?
"What? Do you want to learn some self-defense skills from me, the master?" Qiu Chuji turned around and asked Yang Guo with a smile.

Yang Guo gave a polite smile in return and was about to answer.

"It's too late! You are a traitor to your teacher and ancestors. You deserve to be taught a lesson."

As soon as Qiu Chuji finished speaking, a force suddenly pushed Yang Guo towards Qin Nanqin.

Yang Guo couldn't stop his feet at all, and rushed to Qin Nanqin's feet. His knees softened and he knelt in front of the female ghost. He looked up and saw that Qin Nanqin's face was covered with blue-black meridians. Her all-white pupils were emitting a faint cold light. She stared at Yang Guo mercilessly and coldly.

Perhaps the living Qin Nanqin's hatred for her son Yang Guo turned into love. After all, there are few mothers in the world who would truly want to hurt their sons.

But Qin Nanqin was already dead, and for some reason, he turned into the ghost of Xiyi.

Lin Jiu once said that ghosts are ghosts. They have one less soul and one less spirit than living people, their emotions are relatively weak, and their souls wander between the cold and helpless heaven and earth, constantly being harmed and infected by various natural energies. Even if most ghosts were good people when they were alive, there is a high probability that they will turn into evil ghosts after death.

The Xiyi ghost was strange, without complete emotions and cognition. If it recognized Yang Guo, perhaps the decision it made in an instant would not be to stay away from him, but to kill him and turn him into a ghost and keep him by its side.

“Hello!” Yang Guo stretched out his hand and waved towards Qin Nanqin. At the same time, his true energy surged, and he used his hand as a sword. The divine sword was accumulating power in the dark, ready to chop out a powerful blow at any time.

Qin Nanqin stared at Yang Guo, and measured the height of the kneeling Yang Guo. Suddenly, a strange smile appeared on her face: "Not bad! Not bad! It's this tall... I found my Guoer! I found my Guoer!"

As he spoke, he stretched out his pale claws and began to pinch Yang Guo's neck.

Yang Guo no longer hesitated. He used his arm as a sword, and together with the sword he slashed out.

The whistling sound of breaking wind was like the howling of gods and ghosts. The soaring sword light pierced through Qin Nanqin's body without hurting her at all.

Only the meaning in the knife made the female ghost stunned for a moment. Yang Guo knew that something was wrong, but he had no time to get up. He jumped on the spot using his knees as support and turned over to where Qiu Chuji was.

Although it was Qiu Chuji who pushed him out just now, under this crisis, he had no choice but to trust Qiu Chuji once again.

"Guo'er...Guo'er, why did you want to kill your mother!"

"Guo'er, don't you want me as your mother?"

“Gu’er is just like your father. He only likes a mother who is beautiful, generous and skilled in martial arts. He doesn’t want a mother like me who comes from a poor family?” Qin Nanqin murmured. Not only did Yang Guo’s sword not hurt her, but it made her figure more solid.

The ghost of Xiyi has been forgotten by the world.

No matter what, Qin Nanqin at this moment at least made Yang Guo remember her.

Now that he has memory, his exiled body turns from nothingness to existence.

Qin Nanqin, whose body shape had condensed somewhat, floated towards Yang Guo who was retreating towards Qiu Chuji at a speed that could not be captured by the naked eye, and her pale claws had already grabbed Yang Guo's neck.

The bone-chilling feeling, which was still a foot away from Yang Guo's neck, already made Yang Guo feel suffocated and frozen.

His powerful skills could not give him any sense of security at this moment.

Yang Guo had a hunch that as long as his neck was locked, even if he had profound internal strength and could adjust to internal breathing in a short period of time, it would still be useless.

This deadly threat of choking does not come from the body, but targets the soul.

Yang Guo's eyes quickly moved back, and his eyes glanced at Qiu Chuji beside him, his gaze full of desire.

He still has a bright future ahead of him. He has just traveled through time and is not yet proficient in using his golden finger.

He had only eaten Xiaolongnu once, and swallowed it whole. There was still a lot of knowledge that he had not unlocked. In addition to Xiaolongnu, there were Guo Fu, Lu Wushuang, Cheng Ying, Li Mochou, Yelu Yan, Wanyan Ping, Gongsun Lue'e, and little Guo Xiang... He had not had the time to meet them and have no interactions with them. How could he die?

At this moment, Qiu Chuji could not understand Yang Guo's thoughts, but he could sense his strong desire to survive.

"Suppress!" Qiu Chuji drew a talisman in the air using the power of his soul.

A ghost-sealing talisman flew straight towards Qin Nanqin, freezing her in place.

Although Xiyi ghosts are rare, Qiu Chuji is undoubtedly much stronger. The ghost-suppressing talisman he drew makes it impossible for a ghost to escape unless it is a ghost king who is thousands of years old.

Qin Nanqin, who was emitting a strong resentment, was frozen.

Yang Guo had cold sweat on his forehead. He slowly moved his body, shaking off the frost on his body as he approached Qiu Chuji. He said with chattering teeth, “Thank…thank you so much, Master. Save…save me!”

Qiu Chuji glanced at Yang Guo and asked calmly, "Why are you thanking me? Wasn't it me who pushed you over there?"

Yang Guo circulated his Qi, constantly counteracting the Yin Qi that had invaded his body. At least he stopped stuttering when speaking: “Grandmaster, this is training my courage, and also a small punishment for my previous offense. Guo’er knows he was wrong!”

Upon hearing this, Qiu Chuji frowned slightly.

This Yang Guo is a bit slippery!

However, Yang Guo did have such a personality in his early days. No matter whether his mother was Mu Nianci or Qin Nanqin, after his mother's death, he lived alone. If he was not slick, he would never have waited for Guo Jing to pick him up and take him back to Peach Blossom Island.

His character became extremely stubborn and aloof, which happened after his martial arts skills improved greatly and his nature returned to normal.

“After seeing how ferocious the ghosts were today, would you still dare to deal with them in the future?” Qiu Chuji asked Yang Guo.

The world has undergone tremendous changes. Qiu Chuji does not have the ability to change it back to its original state.

In this case, we can only go with the flow.

It seems possible to transform Yang Guo, the hero of The Return of the Condor Heroes, into Yang Guo, the Heavenly Master of Exorcism of Ghosts, as long as it does not deviate from the theme of growing up to be a great hero and finally retiring to the mountains.

Yang Guo felt bitter when he heard this, but he said, “Of course I dare!”

"Master, are you going to teach me how to exorcise ghosts and demons?"

He knows his own family affairs.

Ken's card destined him to be accompanied by ghosts.

But he didn't have any ability to catch ghosts. If he wanted to live well, he had to learn some real ghost-exorcism skills. "That's right, but if you want to catch ghosts, you need to build up your courage first!"

“This female ghost has a deep connection with you. Carry her back to the ancient tomb and live with her for half a month. If you can bear it, I will teach you some skills.” Qiu Chuji said to Yang Guo.

After saying this, Qiu Chuji added: "By the way! You have to remember that she may no longer be your real mother in any sense, but it is always right for a mother to want to see her child."

Yang Guo was obviously distracted when he heard this, and it was unclear whether he took Qiu Chuji's words to heart.

After being stunned for a moment, he asked Qiu Chuji: "Master...will she suddenly wake up and harm me again?"

Qiu Chuji waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, as long as I am safe, she will not be able to break free."

“What if…?” Yang Guo spoke too quickly and almost blurted out something extremely treasonous.

Facing Qiu Chuji's cold gaze, Yang Guo lowered his voice, forced himself to use his true energy to defend behind him, then gritted his teeth, stepped forward, and carried the female ghost Qin Nanqin on his back.

The female ghost has no weight, but is extremely cold. Carrying such a female ghost on your back is like carrying a ball of extremely cold air from the Far North.

Even though Yang Guo had long been accustomed to the coldness of the ice jade bed, he was still shivering from the cold.

However, he regarded this as a test from Qiu Chuji, so no matter how cold it was, he walked towards the ancient tomb step by step, carrying the female ghost Qin Nanqin on his back.

However, he did not notice that the female ghost Qin Nanqin was being carried on his back. Her originally cold, empty, pale eyes suddenly trembled, and a black blood mist faintly seeped out of the corners of her eyes.

······
In the ancient tomb, Xiaolongnu found the wedding dress left by her grandmother-in-law Lin Chaoying.

Then wear it on your body.

She and Guo'er had already engaged in intimate behavior that only a husband and wife could have, so she already considered herself to be Yang Guo's wife.

Since you are husband and wife, you should live and die together.

Yang Guo went to Quanzhen Sect to challenge the Seven Masters of Quanzhen. If Yang Guo could come back, she would live out the rest of her life with Yang Guo in the ancient tomb and bear children for him. If Yang Guo could not come back, she would wear her wedding dress and go to Quanzhen Sect to ask for death, so that she could die with Yang Guo and be buried in the same grave.

No matter which ending it is, it makes no difference to Xiaolongnu, so she is not worried or afraid of such emotions.

The candlelight flickered, and suddenly a figure appeared in the blurry bronze mirror.

"You look beautiful in this wedding dress... more beautiful than me."

"What a pity that I couldn't wear it and marry the person I wanted to marry!" A voice sounded in the empty tomb.

Xiaolongnu paused while combing her hair and turned her head to look behind her in surprise.

There was nothing behind her, but when she looked into the mirror again, she saw a figure wearing the same wedding dress behind her. Her slender pale fingers were placed on her shoulders, and she moved a heroic face towards hers.

Xiao Long Nu was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Grandma Ancestor?"

But she was not afraid. Having grown up in an ancient tomb, she had basically had no contact or connection with the outside world. Xiaolongnu's heart was actually like a blank piece of paper. Although some things were painted on it by Yang Guo, the changes were not that much.

"It's me!" answered the figure reflected in the mirror.

"Humph! Another traitor. For the sake of a man, he is willing to seek death among those stinky Taoists." Another voice sounded.

Xiao Long Nu's originally calm face also revealed a rare trace of joy: "Master!"

The bronze mirror in front of him rippled like water waves, and another figure appeared.

He was dressed in blue and had a serious face.

Looks more like a character like 'Ancestor'.

"Don't call me Master! I, Lin Xiaolan, don't have a disciple like you." said the old-fashioned woman.

"Xiaolan! Don't talk like that. I don't remember teaching you to be so unkind!" Lin Chaoying said.

"Miss! We are all ghosts now, and we shouldn't be friendly to humans." Lin Xiaolan replied.

Lin Chaoying sighed: "Yes! We have all become ghosts, we don't know if he..."

"He is devoted to Taoism, he must have become an immortal!"

Lin Xiaolan sneered: "If someone like him is so fake, hypocritical and cowardly, it would be God's fault if he could become an immortal."

"Little Dragon Girl! Your grandmother wants to see her old lover, but she doesn't have a physical body. Why don't you let her temporarily attach herself to you and let her fulfill her wish?"

Lin Chaoying said: "I'm afraid this is not appropriate... We are all ghosts, and if we attach ourselves to a younger generation, we might hurt her yang energy."

Xiao Long Nu stood up and said calmly, "Come on!"

Lin Chaoying and Lin Xiaolan both declined, but after Xiaolongnu's repeated requests, the two ghosts still attached themselves to her body, but each only occupied one arm to minimize the erosion of Xiaolongnu's yang energy.

"Aunt! Who are you talking to?" Yang Guo, who had just returned from the waterway carrying the 'ghost mother' Qin Nanqin on his back, walked into the ancient tomb and heard the voice of Xiaolongnu talking to someone in the empty tomb.

Xiao Long Nu was delighted when she heard this, and she shouted loudly: "Guo Er! Come quickly to meet the Grandmother and your Grandmaster!"

When Yang Guo heard this, he was puzzled at first, but then he immediately understood...he had encountered a ghost again!
Still two!

······
In the Iron Spear Temple, Yang Kang, whose body was half real and half virtual, looked at his hands, feeling a little dazed.

He followed Qiu Chuji across time and space and came to this world. In a daze, he received a memory that he already knew roughly. Then when he "woke up", the situation became like this.

Yang Kang, who had gained a lot of knowledge and experience following Qiu Chuji, knew very well that he had now turned into a ghost.

Now it exists in the form of a ghost.

It's just that because Yang Kang's cultivation has long surpassed the level of normal warriors, his powerful true qi cultivation and soul strength still give this "ghost body" extraordinaryness.

He is like an old ghost, no longer afraid of most of the erosion from natural energy.

You will not feel uncomfortable because of floating in nature.

But if the sun comes out, he still has to hide in the shade to avoid direct sunlight.

"I don't know where the master is now!"

"Maybe it's Mount Zhongnan?" Yang Kang thought as he floated out of the Iron Spear Temple.

Roar!
A tiger roared from not far away.

Yang Kang saw with his own eyes that a huge tiger roared away several illusory ghosts and then ran towards him.

"Yinrui! It's me! I'm your senior brother Yang Kang!" Yang Kang looked at the tiger running towards him. The yang fire aura rushing towards him made Yang Kang feel uncomfortable all over. He had a sense of crisis that he might be swept away at any time.

The tiger is an extremely yang animal and can naturally restrain evil spirits.

Yinrui is not only a Siberian tiger, but also an alien species enlightened by Qiu Chuji. The yang energy emanating from his body is both a great tonic and a great harm to ghosts.

Roar!
Hearing Yang Kang's call, Yin Rui let out a fierce roar, and the masculine energy that rushed over almost blew Yang Kang away.

"Junior brother! I am your junior brother!" Yang Kang was too stubborn to suffer a loss and immediately surrendered.

Yin Rui then gave up, widened his eyes, and looked at Yang Kang with great curiosity, and even wanted to wave his claws to try the feel.
