That car is too dirty, the glass is almost blurred, making it hard for us to see inside the car clearly.
There were two lamas, one of whom I had cut off the neck, and the other was unaccounted for. However, Wu Bing was already approaching the second elder, and even if the surviving lama was alive, he would not be able to use any means anymore.
It is evident that there is someone else in the car!
That person was in charge of driving!
Lao Gong suddenly jumped up, flying towards the hearse.
The car that first crashed into the lama suddenly reversed, blocking the path in front of the hearse.
The national highway was narrow to begin with, with both sides not more than a meter and a half wide. Add to that the empty space beneath the road embankment, and there was no way for the car to pass by on the side.
After Lao Gong landed on the car roof, he disappeared into it immediately. The car suddenly stopped, and when the door was opened, a dark-skinned middle-aged man rolled down from the car. His clothing was identical to that of a few guards he had watched in the underground dungeon of Black City Temple.
Lao Gong emerged from his body, bent down, and when he lifted his head again, the man's body below the neck was gone, his head had vanished without a trace.
Wuling ran to the side of the second elder. He took out a copper bell with green rust spots, shook it violently, and as the sound of the bell hummed, the ghosts around the second elder became slower. After several more incantations and spells from the elder, many of the ghosts were driven away.
I did not rush forward to help but quickly walked to the ghost mother's front, without hesitation, I took out the female Yu jade tablet and placed it on her head!
With a snort, white smoke suddenly rose up, the face of "Ghost Mother" became very twisted.
With one hand holding a spell, the other mouthed incantations: "Dan Zhu Zheng Lun Qing Jing She, Ling Bao Tian Jun Qu Mi She, Tai Guang Shuang Ling You Jing She. Peng Ju, Peng Qiao, Peng Zhi must not leave my body She. Tai Shang San Tian Wu Xu Zi Ran She."
"I cleanse myself with the sun and refine my form with the moon. True man protects me, jade woman assists my shape. Twenty-eight constellations follow me in obedience, a thousand demons and filth expelled by the qi and purified, hurriedly as per ritual command."
With these five purification incantations combined with the Yu jade tablet, the effect naturally becomes even more potent.
The twisting of the Ghost Mother's face gradually faded away, and what emerged was a normal woman's cheek. She should have had an exquisite face, but at this moment, it was extremely pale and had almost no blood color.
Her chest and abdomen were almost filled with countless holes, resembling a wasp's nest, the dense holes made people's scalp prickle.
She had absolutely no breath left...
After the Ghost Mother disappeared, the bulky lama's ghostly figure also vanished without a trace. Only a spine, a skull, and an empty void remained, looking extremely ominous.
The ghosts around the second elder disappeared completely. He panted heavily and swayed, nearly losing his balance.
Wuling quickly took up the bronze bell in one hand and walked forward to support the second elder.
The moonlight was incredibly clear and serene. I quietly gazed at the corpse of the female disciple for a few seconds before hurrying towards the hearse.
I didn't notice that until I got close to the car. Lao Gong was already inside.
Including Si Yan, the three female disciples sat quietly in the rear row of the car, as if they had lost their senses, their expressions vacant and their eyes unfocused.
"Si Yan, little miss, wake up! Lao Gong is here to save you!" Lao Gong called out in a hoarse voice.
I composed myself and quietly called out: "Lao Gong, come back."
Lao Gong only returned to the night pot then.
I repeated the five purification incantations again.
Si Yan and the others trembled slightly, their scattered eyes became focused, and they gradually regained consciousness.
"Master Shen Shin?" Si Yan stared at me, her eyes brightening with a hint of joy.
The other two female disciples had a look of joy mixed with tears, calling out in unison, "Little masteruncle!"
"Aiya... but I was the one who got on the car first, and I was also the one who followed you guys! I know Master and Little Master, but I don't know about me, Lao Gong..." Lao Gong sighed and looked very disappointed.
"Lao Gong, this checkpoint is not the time for idle chatter." I whispered a reprimanding remark.
The people were saved, but there was no trace of joy in my heart.
Too many people have died in Four Rules Mountain, I've seen at least ten disciples who have passed away.
There was another female disciple right in front of us, who died so pitifully, and the second elder had an undeniable responsibility. I am equally to blame.
Si Yan realized what had happened and glanced at her side, her expression changing slightly: "Where is Huang Su?"
I didn't know how to start, so I could only remain silent.
Si Yan was exceptionally intelligent. Her expression changed slightly and she quickly got out of the car, with the other two female disciples also getting out.
"Huang Su!" A heart-wrenching cry, Si Yan rushed towards the body of the female disciple, and the other two female disciples ran over with equal sorrow.
The second elder followed behind with Wuling's support.
I turned my head, glanced at the car to the side of the hearse, there was someone inside. However, the person had not gotten out of the car.
I didn't look at the person in the car for too long before I turned back towards the direction of the female disciple's body.
When we stopped, Si Yan and the others cried bitterly, Wuling had a face full of sorrow, and the second elder had a look of old age, sighing profusely.
"Si Yan, you don't need to be too sad. Gather Huang Su's body and let's return to the mountain as soon as possible. Although Huang Su has died, we have killed the last two lamas, which can be said to be taking divine retribution. Enrolling in the mountain for study, there will always be a day when we must make such sacrifices." The second elder's words were truly grandiose and lofty.
Si Yan did not respond, but her suffering and pain seemed to increase.
"Master, Si Yan is too distressed. Let them rest for a moment. Even though Huang Su was killed, she was also a tragic death." Wuling showed a heart-wrenching expression.
Lao Gong made a direct expression of retching and rolled his eyes.
"Um." The second elder nodded only then.
At this moment, Xu Jin had already gotten out of his car. He dragged the body of the lama who had been beheaded to our side.
"Master Luo, this person is dead. The other lama in front should also be dead. The car was well-prepared; there was another person inside, whose identity is unknown." Xu Jin spoke in a deep voice, his tone and demeanor were very alert.
Even with someone else's help, Xu Jin still held doubts.
The second elder also looked up, glanced in that direction.
At this moment, Wuling coughed, then said, "Xu Jin brother, you don't need to worry. Master, Little Master, you don't have to be anxious either. That was a friend of mine. I saw the distance between Xu Jin and me at the time and thought that my friend might also be nearby. So I had him drive over to keep up with us. If there were any troubles, he could lend a hand and help out."
"Your friend, is he a Yin-Yang master?" Suddenly, Lao Gong said.
The worst thing was the sudden silence in the air. For a moment, Wuling didn't speak.
After a few seconds, he explained, "Looking at it that way is correct. I've had some involvement with the art of divination and have met many masters. You should know, Lao Gong, that being a master doesn't require much strength, but it's easy to save one's life."
"We encountered this situation, and I didn't have time to inform my friend. He reacted quickly and directly hit the lama, helping us break through the situation."
Wuling's words made the second elder nod repeatedly, then he said, "On this trip, Little apprentice, you have done well. Wuling, you have accomplished a great deed through a twist of fate. It was your friend who disabled one of the lamas, which allowed this young Xu Jin to react quickly and follow suit. Without that, Little apprentice might not have been able to break the situation, and I would have been constrained by the ghosts. Today would have been in danger."
In just a few words, the second elder began distributing credit?
