Heavenly Dao Formula Chapter 58: Hunter and Prey

　　The flames jumped in front of my eyes, and dropped little by little at an extremely slow speed.

　　 Maybe I knew that the Privy Council was here to get rid of the troubles, and the outside clocking had stopped, as if no one dared to take a step closer here-in fact, let alone the clocking, from the night to this moment, the whole county was silent, even Usually common dog barking insects are hard to hear.

　　 How long have they waited?

　　 an hour or three hours?

　　 Xia Fan lost control of time. The only evidence he could feel that time was passing was the half-burned candles on the candlestick.

　　 Sitting in the middle, Zhang Shenzheng hasn't moved from the beginning to the end. Looking from the corner, he seems to have turned into a statue.

　　 This kind of waiting makes people worry, and even makes Xia Fan wonder if Yuangui will really choose them in a forest that contains many prey, as the gods said.

　　 Just then, Xia Fan heard a string of crisp bells.

　　 It is incompatible with this dull and anxious atmosphere, and it broke the silence of the night in an instant.

　　The sound source seems to come from...inside the box!

　　 Almost instantly, Zhang Shenzhen suddenly opened his eyes.

　　 He grabbed the wooden sword beside him, and lightly picked it up, and the lid of the box came up. Xia Fan, who was guarding the corner, saw the contents of the box at this moment.

　　 It was a face without a nose. The most obvious mouth stood upright, pulling its face into two halves, and on both sides of the mouth, there were three eyes of different sizes. These eyes have neither eye sockets nor eyebrow embellishments, they are like fleshy beads embedded in the epidermis!

The moment 　　 the lid was lifted, two skinny arms also stretched out, grabbing at the alchemist in front of them at a very fast speed!

　　 But Zhang Shenzheng is faster.

　　 With a pull with his left hand, he took a rope, and the other end of it was connected to the box-as if some mechanism had been opened, the original wooden box suddenly fell apart.

　　The reason why the container is a container is precisely because the bottom and the walls fit each other to form a closed space. However, as the box becomes pieces of wood, this space no longer exists.

　　 The moment Yuangui’s body was exposed, its open arms instantly lost their strength and fell softly.

　　 This is the weakness of Yuangui!

　　Once it loses its hiding place, its deadly deterrent will also be wiped out.

　　 Xia Fan, who witnessed this rapid change, understood why Zhang Shenzhen would be so calm and self-conscious—he didn’t have to wait like they did. There are bells in the box, and if a foreign object enters, it will trigger an alarm. , He only needs to wait until the bell rings and then concentrate on responding. Before that, he knew that the mansion was safe.

　　 Without the concealment of the box, Yuangui fully revealed its real body. As the survivor said, its body was about the size of a baby, but that did not include the four slender limbs. In other words, apart from the head, it has only limbs left. Both hands and feet are more than two meters in length, and the joints are all bent upwards, just like a water strider running in the water.

　　 It hurriedly wanted to bypass the alchemist in front of him, and Zhang Shenzhen, who had already stood up, obviously did not intend to give it this opportunity.

　　 He threw a talisman to the center of Yuangui's head, and the latter suddenly froze in place. Then he pierced the talisman with his sword and pierced straight forward, piercing Yuangui without resistance like a tofu.

　　 Only two soft sounds of "Boom, Boom" were heard, Yuangui's head burst open, and the black liquid splashed all over the floor.

　　 So fast, Xia Fan said in his heart.

　　 The opponent's shooting process was fluent, and neither did he see the action of digging out the medicinal materials, nor did he use voice to strengthen the intention of the operation. It only took a few seconds before the target appeared to the ground.

　　 The strength of the Sixth Rank Alchemist cannot be underestimated.

　　 "Thanks for your hard work, this mission ends here." Zhang Shenzhen wiped the wooden sword and retracted his waist. "After that, let the magistrate take care of the aftermath. We will leave for Jinxia tomorrow."

　　 "It turns out that ghosts are nothing more than this... How difficult it is for me to be the head of evil." Wang Renzhi walked to the wreckage of Yuan ghost and kicked with his feet with a look of disgust, "Hey, it's enough. Deformed."

　　 "Is it... dead?" Wei Wushuang stepped forward and asked.

　　 "Dead? It hasn't lived at all, okay?" Wang Renzhi gave him a white look. "This thing is just being reorganized and driven by Qi. If the hostility is strong enough, some evil spirits can come back again and again, for example. Speaking of Dahuang Shaye. But what a ghost... it's just one chance."

　　"Where did this deep ghost come from?" Shangguan Cai suddenly asked.

　　 "What do you mean?" Prince Wang looked at her puzzled.

　　"Don’t you know? The biggest difference between ghosts and other evil creatures is that they are transformed from corpses. In other words—"She turned her gaze to Yuangui, "This thing was once a person."

　　"Uh, who knows..." Wang Renzhi was a little stuck, "and its origin is not important at all, right?"

　　 Zhang Shenzhen accidentally looked at Shangguan Cai for a long time before he accepted the topic, "Yes, the mission of the alchemist in the Privy Council is to eliminate the evil monster. It doesn't matter where it came from. For example, this Yuan Yuan. A ghost may be a medicine farmer who went up the mountain to pick up and lost his way, or it may be a hunter who fell into a valley and died of many geniuses~ IndoMTL.com~ knowing that these can't prevent ghosts from harming people, you only need to destroy them. Yes."

　　 "That's what I mean," Wang Renzhi coughed twice, "Let's go, I can sleep well now when I go back."

　　 It seems that Li will not be on the stage tonight.

　　 Xia Fan waved to the dark place as a greeting, then turned and walked towards the door.

　　 But what made him a little strange was that although several people walked in front, no one pushed open the closed hall door, as if everyone was waiting for him.

　　 If only Wei Wushuang and Luo You'er understand well, when will the others be so united?

　　 He speeded up the pace subconsciously, and at the same time saw Wei Wushuang seem to be doing his best to turn around, staring at him wide, as if urging him.

　　 Wait, is that a urging look?

　　 With the help of the flickering candle, Xia Fan seemed to see bloodshot in his eyes--how impatient would it be to get to this level?

　　 Wei Wushuang in his impression is not such a person.

　　 Xia Fan couldn't help but stop.

　　 At this time, the abnormal situation appeared without warning-he found that the lowered front foot could no longer be retracted, as if he had been nailed to the spot. Soon, this feeling of something wrong spread throughout his body, and he suddenly realized that it was not just his feet, but that he had lost control of his body!

　　 Is this an illusion?

　　No...No, he was stared at by something.

　　And not just him, everyone present was so, so that after the vision, no one looked back or issued a warning-because when they noticed the problem, they could no longer open their mouths to make a sound.

　　 Just under the dim firelight, a figure two meters tall appeared in front of Xia Fan little by little.
