Chapter 227
Wen Zheng was very curious about how ghosts were formed. The souls of the old Taoist priest and the original body did not feel the existence of Yin Qi when they disappeared. Where did the souls of the two go? Perhaps after further investigation, the reason for the appearance of the ghost domain can be found.
But this disaster has just begun. After leaving the scope of Zhuxi Village, before dusk and sunset, the world has changed. Wen Zheng can't watch those evil ghosts hurt people in front of him.
So Wen Zheng took out several talismans from his arms and threw them directly on the accompanying personnel, then opened the car window and jumped out of the car window. Just when the people in the car wanted to find Wen Zheng's whereabouts, they heard Wen Zheng's voice on the roof of the car: "Just drive according to my instructions, I will take you into the ghost domain, with the protection of the talisman, you just sit tight."
The people in the car were so nervous that they swallowed their saliva, and then they were excited.
This excitement disappeared when they entered the ghost domain according to Wen Zheng's command. During the journey to the ghost domain, they felt dizzy and could not suppress it. Before they recovered, they felt the temperature around them drop sharply and it was pitch black outside the car.
The few people who were sent to follow Wen Zheng not only performed well in the team, but also experienced life and death. They were extremely sensitive to danger. As soon as they entered the ghost domain, goose bumps appeared on their bodies.
The talisman on the body took effect, white light lit up, and countless black shadows appeared outside the car, with strange limbs and distorted facial features. The protruding eyes were obviously black, but they always felt that they were staring at themselves.
Without waiting for the people in the car to react, Wen Zheng, who was standing on the roof of the car, threw out the talisman and took out a peach wood sword from the old Taoist's legacy.
A wooden sword without a blade was carefully made of lightning-struck peach wood. It was born with the function of restraining evil spirits. In Wen Zheng's hands, it showed full power. Where the wooden sword was swung, white light slashed down from the sky, and there was a faint purple light flowing in it. Ordinary ghost soldiers and ghosts were completely unable to resist. Every time Wen Zheng swung, he could clear an area.
"Is Taoist Master Wen still human?" The people who saw it in the car murmured to themselves.
These days, they followed Wen Zheng's side. They said they were accompanying him for protection, but in fact, they also had the function of surveillance. As Wen Zheng showed his strength, his hidden attitude also changed, but after seeing the scene in front of him, he realized that his previous thoughts were still a little too underestimated.
The spells flew, and no ghost dared to approach. The sword light swung away, sweeping away a piece of darkness, which was really exciting.
Although they did not know how to use Taoism, after strict training in the army, after adapting to the current environment, the people in the car tried to cooperate with Wen Zheng better and attack the evil ghosts at the same time.
Wen Zheng had his own considerations for entering the ghost domain. Fighting in the ghost domain would not affect the human world, and he could also sense more quickly where the passage was opened.
Directing the vehicles to rush to the place where the passage was opened, Wen Zheng attacked and closed the passage when he arrived, preventing the evil ghosts from going to the human world and relieving the pressure on the human world.
However, compared with the many passages opened at the same time, Wen Zheng's efforts were just a drop in the bucket. No matter how powerful he was, he would always be exhausted when facing the endless ghosts.
Wen Zheng waved the wooden sword in his hand again. Even the people in the car could see that the sword light was much less than before, and the faint purple light had disappeared. They quickly asked about Wen Zheng's condition.
"I have consumed too much spiritual energy in my body. I can't stay in the ghost domain for too long. Wait until the next passage, and you will drive the car out." Wen Zheng's voice also showed a few traces of fatigue.
The ghost domain can't tell time. The people in the car are already very tired after a long battle. When they think of Wen Zheng's current state, they are a little worried and anxious. They stepped on the accelerator to speed up and want to rush out in one breath.
As a result, at this moment, several blood-red lights appeared on the road leading to the passage pointed by Wen Zheng. A closer look revealed that they were the blood-red eyes of several evil ghosts, which made people's scalps numb. The familiar cold feeling in the ghost realm came again, almost penetrating into the bones.
"Master Wen, do you still want to rush forward?" Everyone in the car picked up their weapons.
"You living people are so bold that you dare to run to the ghost realm. If you stay in the human world, you can live longer. And you, a little Taoist priest, are quite powerful. You have eliminated so many ghost soldiers under my command. Now it's time to use your soul to make up for my loss."
A total of three red-eyed ghosts sacrificed themselves in the dark. They were all tall, estimated to be more than two meters tall, and wearing tattered armor. Among them, the armor on the evil ghost standing in the middle was clearer, and the remaining two stood on the left and right, half a step behind. It seems that there are also differences in status among the ghost generals.
The people in the car were shocked. These red-eyed evil ghosts in front of them were probably ghost generals of higher level than ghost soldiers. They have the same consciousness as living people. From the consciousness in the words, they have long sensed that they have entered the ghost domain. They just waited until Wen Zheng’s spiritual energy was exhausted and he was tired from the long battle before appearing, and deliberately blocked their way out.
The leading ghost general was even more angry when he saw that Wen Zheng did not answer. With an order, more ghost soldiers, ghost soldiers and ghost fog rushed up in compliance with the order, and they were bound to consume all of Wen Zheng’s power.
The situation was critical. The people in the car were ready to die in battle, and shouted to the roof of the car: "Master Wen, if you can leave, leave the ghost domain as soon as possible. Don’t worry about us. We should be able to buy you a few seconds."
In today's world, Wen Zheng is more important than all of them combined.
Wen Zheng did not answer them, but chuckled, standing on the roof of the car with a wooden sword in hand, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect to attract only three. Did you underestimate me a little too much, or did the main fighting force go to other places?"
"Forget it, you won't tell me now if I ask you, let's fight first." After that, Wen Zheng jumped down from the roof of the car, and purple lightning surged where the wooden sword in his hand pointed, directly striking the three red-eyed ghosts.
The three ghosts thought they were hiding behind, waiting for Wen Zheng to weaken before attacking, but they didn't expect Wen Zheng to pretend to be tired, in fact, to lure them out. The lightning struck them, and the severe pain was not as great as the panic of losing power. It was too late to regret at this time. Several ghosts could only fight and attack Wen Zheng.

The people in the car watched the situation reverse again, watching Wen Zheng use talismans and peach wood swords to defeat the three red-eyed ghosts, and then took out a magic weapon to trap them. Suddenly, they felt that their previous worries about Wen Zheng and their determination to die were really unnecessary.
"High-level ghosts may feel your mood swings, so I didn't tell you in advance." Wen Zheng explained, and then looked at the trapped ghost in his hand.
Taking out a lightning spell, Wen Zheng threatened the three captured ghosts: "Among the ghosts, one main general will be equipped with multiple deputy generals, not just you three ghosts. Which channel did the other ghosts go to the human world?"
Feeling the approaching power of thunder and lightning, the three ghosts who were almost dissipated by the beating could not bear it. As evil ghosts, they had no idea of not selling out the news. As soon as Wen Zheng threatened, all the information came out like beans from a bamboo tube.
"The other ghosts did not go to the human world, but went to deal with that evil star." At this point, the evil ghost wanted to cry loudly. The one in front of him was also a real evil star. I thought that good days would come after I came to the world, but I threw two evil stars into the ghost domain. Not only did I not eat the living soul, but I was also beaten to death.
"Evil star?" Wen Zheng had a premonition that this evil star might be Tuan Tuan. He didn't find Tuan Tuan's trace in the real world, and Tuan Tuan didn't look for him, so he guessed that he might have been thrown into the ghost domain by the system.
"It appeared on the same day that the breath of the human world entered the ghost domain. It was a bird with flames all over its body. Ordinary ghosts were burned to ashes when they approached. We, the ghost generals, could only avoid it."
"These days, we have used a large number of ghost soldiers and ghosts to consume the power of the divine bird. All the ghost generals gathered together to take advantage of today's special opportunity to eliminate the evil star. You ran to the ghost domain and made such a big fuss, so the three of us were sent here."
The three ghost generals confessed honestly.
Confirming that it was Tuan Tuan, Wen Zheng asked anxiously: "In which direction are they encircling and suppressing? Don't think of lying to me."
After knowing the direction, Wen Zheng immediately asked the vehicle to rush over as fast as possible. Although the time on the road was urgent, it was not wasted. He continued to interrogate the ghost generals about the situation of the ghost king in the ghost domain.
It turns out that there are five ghost kings in this ghost domain, located in the five directions of the ghost domain, east, west, south, north and center. They are now in the area of the Eastern Ghost King.
It turned out that when Tuan Tuan was thrown into the ghost domain by the game system, he had a fight with the Eastern Ghost King, and both were injured. The Eastern Ghost King found a place to heal his wounds and ordered the remaining ghost generals to encircle Tuan Tuan, but the ghost generals were also afraid, so they used ghost soldiers and ghost soldiers to consume Tuan Tuan's strength first.
After Wen Zheng learned the news, he sealed the three ghost generals into the magic weapon. He was furious, and the most angry was himself. Thinking that Tuan Tuan's current strength was strong enough, he did not look for it properly, and was worried that Tuan Tuan was being injured by these ghosts.
The speed of the car under them had reached the highest speed. Before Wen Zheng's patience ran out, they saw a bright color appear in the dark ghost domain. The red flame was completely different from the red eyes of the evil ghost. It was jumping, fresh, and gorgeous, with a powerful force that seemed to ignite the entire ghost domain.
The people in the car were shocked by Tuantuan's power, but Wen Zheng on the roof only saw a group of ghosts surrounding his family's Tuantuan in a shameless round-robin battle. Uncontrollable anger spread in his heart. He took out the compass left by the old Taoist priest from his pocket, bit his finger, and carved on the compass with blood.
He stretched out his hand and threw the compass into the sky. The palm-sized compass kept getting bigger in the air. The talisman carved on it flashed with golden light and flew all the way to Tuantuan's body, trapping all the evil ghosts surrounding Tuantuan on the compass.
Tuantuan felt the familiar power, flapped his wings and lowered his eyes, accurately found his father's figure, looked up to the sky and let out a long roar, his voice full of joy.
Wen Zheng led Tuantuan to fight against the ghosts under the command of the Eastern Ghost King, and in the human world outside the ghost domain, there were still many people who were injured and resisted the evil ghosts.
Wen Zheng and Tuan Tuan are the anomalies in this world. The spiritual energy of the world has just been revived not long ago, and neither the metaphysical people nor the scientific forces have many ways to deal with ghosts. On the day of July 14, those who could fight ghosts tried their best, and there were many casualties. Most of them still had serious Yin Qi in their bodies, and they could not recover after just one day of rest.
So on the night of July 15, the remaining fighting power was fighting with gritted teeth. Ghosts have no pain and can fight until the moment of extinction, and they can also devour living souls to increase their strength.
In the process of fighting, seeing their comrades die and even their souls being eaten by ghosts, and the ghosts repairing their injuries and becoming stronger after eating, was another heavy blow to them.
They were able to continue fighting only because they knew that only they could cause harm to ghosts now. If they retreated, ordinary people would not be able to resist. Those evil ghosts would have an unknown degree of power after devouring more living souls, and the world would be over by then.
They could not retreat, even if they had to fight until the last moment before death.
The firm belief in protection gathered together, which the living could not see, but there were always some invisible existences that could sense it.
Those precious beliefs floated between heaven and earth, and finally resonated with some remaining power, and they were attracted to several special places.
These special places are the martyrs' cemeteries distributed in various places. The simple people still believe in the customs that have been passed down since ancient times. Even when the government emphasizes it, they will come here to worship in the daytime with sunshine. Flowers, fruits, food, wine, and even sweet candies are placed in front of each tombstone.
The condensed faith is attracted here by the worship items and falls into those tombstones.
Black but faint white shadows emerge from the tombstones. Their figures gradually become clear, and the military uniforms they wear appear. Among them, the people with medals hanging on their chests are the first to have consciousness and shout in a loud voice: "Everyone, return to the team!"
During their lifetime, they were willing to sacrifice their lives to defend the motherland and the people. After death, they will still wake up from eternal sleep because of their strong belief in defending their country and fighting for the country and the people again.
After the whole team is completed, they will immediately rush to the place of war to provide support.
