Mortal bone

"he he he he he……"

And not long after the two people in Liefeng Hall left, the ghost possessed by a rotting corpse, wearing a cloak, rode a demon wolf to the gate of Xu Taiping's courtyard.

"I want to invite those bastards to catch me, do you think they dare?"

The ghost's tone was full of sarcasm and shouted at Xu Taiping who was standing on the roof.

"As long as I close the door, what can you do to me?"

Xu Taiping responded to Li Gui, and then loosened his fingers, and an arrow wrapped in Canxia's true energy burst out of the air with a "swish".

"boom!"

But what Xu Taiping didn't expect was that the ghost in black robe suddenly pulled out a long sword from the robe, and the sword accurately cut off the arrow he shot.

"If it wasn't for your sneak attack yesterday, you, a yellow-mouthed kid who doesn't even have the ability to open the door, how could you hurt me!"

The ghost sneered, and pointed the sword point at Xu Taiping who was standing on the roof.

Seeing this, Xu Taiping's face turned serious.

He could tell just from the sword of the ghost just now that the strength of the opponent was indeed far superior to his own, and yesterday he was able to force him to leave Liu Qingmei's body because of a surprise attack.

"There is only one chance to sneak attack, and this ghost will definitely be very careful next time. It must be very difficult to force him out of his body and kill him with alcohol."

Xu Taiping nocked the arrow and drew the bow again, while thinking in his heart.

"Little guy, don't think that I can't help you if you hide in the yard and don't come out. After ten days at most, I can dig out the dark channel leading to the medicine garden in your backyard. As long as it is blocked, your medicine The garden will have no water to irrigate, and all the elixir in the garden will turn into withered grass!"

At this time, the ghost smiled slyly and said dangerously to Xu Taiping.

Hearing this, Xu Taiping couldn't help but feel his heart tense.

The water source of the medicine garden in his backyard is indeed a deep underground ditch. On weekdays, there will be a steady stream of water flowing through the ditch in the medicine garden, which is very convenient for watering.

If that ghost can really dig out that dark ditch, then he really has no choice but to go out to fetch water, otherwise all the freshly planted perilla in the medicine garden will die in a short time.

"If I store water in advance and wait ten days before the water is cut off, I can last at least four or five days, which means I only have fifteen days left to prepare."

Xu Taiping's little head was spinning rapidly.

"Little guy, the reason why I tell you this is to see that you are still smart, and if you want to show you a way out, you can be caught without a fight and become a ghost servant of this lord. Otherwise, I will let you be like that Liu Qingmei, use your power The soul will be used as the wick, and I will let you taste what life is better than death!"

After a series of threats, the ghost finally revealed the true purpose of coming here today.

After what happened yesterday, he took a fancy to Xu Taiping's cleverness, and after dedicating his body to the Tiger King, he wanted its ghost to be his ghost servant.

These days, even ghosts lack people under their command.

"I am an orthodox monk of Qingxuanzong, how can I work as a minion like you?"

Xu Taiping sneered, then let go of his finger, and with a "swish", he shot an arrow again.

"brush!"

Without any suspense, his arrow was chopped off by the ghost again.

"Righteous monk?"

After smashing Xu Taiping's arrow, the ghost laughed loudly as if hearing some funny joke.

"There is a saying in your Taoist school, one life is two, two is three, three is all things, and all things are one again, so the Taoism in this world is nothing but the same goal. How can there be any distinction between good and evil? If you follow me, I will I will teach you the way of cultivating ghosts, and with time, you can still achieve positive results!"

The coercion failed, and the ghost began to change its strategy to lure.

"Maybe Tao does not distinguish between good and evil, but human beings have the distinction between good and evil. The sages have said that when you are born as a human being, you cultivate your morality, you cross people, and you are like water, dwelling in an abyss of evil and doing good!"

Speaking of this point, Xu Taiping raised his head again, looked straight at the ghost and continued: "You are born as a human being, not only do you not do good deeds, but you work as a minion for tigers, mutilate your own kind, and bully the weak. This is a great evil. When punished!"

At this time Xu Taiping was less than five feet tall, but when he said this, he seemed to be much taller than the eight feet long ghost.

"Since you are looking for death yourself, then I will fulfill you!"

The angry ghost snorted coldly, and while turning the demon wolf under him, he turned his head and continued to speak fiercely at Xu Taiping:

"Do you think that once the water veins are cut off, the spiritual grass in your garden will only wither? I'm not afraid to let you know that the ditch in the garden is the source of spiritual power for the enchantment of your residence. The barrier will break without attacking!"

Maybe it was because of being out of breath, or maybe it was because he looked down on Xu Taiping too much, but this ghost revealed such an important matter.

"Just wait, within half a month, I will take your life!"

After saying this, the ghost rode on the demon wolf and disappeared into the forest beside the small courtyard in a flash.

"Half a month... is enough!"

Xu Taiping glanced at the forest where the ghost disappeared, then he clenched his fist and said.

He didn't shoot those arrows at random, but deliberately tested the strength of the ghost.

"Three arrows in a row, and the ghost chooses to block each time, which proves that when the body he possesses is injured, his ghost will also be injured."

"In addition, the strength of each of my three arrows is actually different, and he was obviously slower when he blocked the last two arrows. From this point of view, if my cultivation level can go further, it is very likely that he will not be able to do it again. It is my arrow that is so easy to handle."

"If you can make him take it lightly, it may hurt him."

Thinking of this, Xu Taiping jumped down from the roof, then glanced at the small courtyard and murmured:

"According to my real cultivation, I can only fight against it unless I break through the door-opening state. Within half a month, even if I can raise the Cangxia Art to the freezing stage, if I want to kill that ghost, I can only lay a trap. He came by surprise."

"I only have one chance, and I have to be fully prepared."

Xu Taiping can choose to run away, for example, take a few bottles of strong wine and pour it on his body, so that the ghost will not dare to get close.

But the problem is, there are wild mountains within hundreds of miles, how long can he escape.

"Instead of thinking about how to escape, it's better to fight with your back."

Xu Taiping turned around and walked quickly towards his bedroom.

His time now is very precious, and he cannot waste a single moment.

But what Xu Taiping didn't know was that the scene of his confrontation with the ghost today was seen and heard by a figure in the forest a few miles away.

It was an old man with gray hair and ragged clothes lying on his back in the treetops.

A long bronze sword hung from the old man's waist, and he held a wine gourd in his hand.
