I know that some parts of what I've said are not reasonable.
For instance, Uncle Nine just threw me here and left me without any care.
But I've already couldn't come up with a more compelling reason.
Such illogical explanation can be somewhat justified.
Even if I wanted to leave, it's as if I could not fly out of the core interior of this haunted chamber.
"He should be busy with something and will come back shortly. " The hidden anger in the daily patrol's voice gradually faded away.
"You wait here, we wait here!"
Between the words, he took a step back and retreated into the room.
In an instant, the image of wearing a wide-brimmed hat and robes changed and twisted, forming a night guard appearance with arms connected!
The body shot up abruptly, floating in mid-air, with the two faces staring intently in another direction.
That position, is the door at the entrance.
I nodded, feeling much more relaxed.
Clearly, he had no doubts about me.
The night guard was just about to slowly rise up, and I slightly constricted my pupils before suddenly saying, "There's one more thing."
"Hm?" The night guard responded softly, and the upward movement slowed down, not entering the beam inside the room.
"Sun Da Hai is here."
"You may not know who Sun Da Hai is, since you have just been reunited."
"However, you should know about the existence of the regulation court."
"The new candidate for the regulation court, Sun Zhuo, is the son of Sun Da Hai. What I and Uncle Huang previously discussed, you have also heard."
"Sun Da Hai's status in the ghost niche is crucial, and previously, the ghost niche took advantage of the empty city god temple and burned the temple. That is Zuo who you swallowed. He has injured many birth ghosts."
Before my words had even ended, the face of the night guard, appeared an unprecedented ferocity and coldness.
He closed his eyes, as if he was thinking about something.
When he opened his eyes again, his face became grotesque.
The cold voice echoed in my ears, and its threads slowly seeped into my mind, enough to see that the night guard was extremely angry at this moment!
I nodded.
There was still lingering joy in my heart.
The night guard is indeed vigilant.
However, he is not as smooth as Uncle Huang.
As the incumbent of the city god temple, his nature of hating evil is much stronger than that of Uncle Huang!
The night guard disappeared, merging into the rafters.
Later, I just waited quietly as time passed by.
I don't want to waste that much time here.
Since we've started acting, we might as well go through the whole routine.
I also didn't just stand there, and went to study the exhibits in Uncle Nine's cabinet.
It's still the same, not a Daoist, and I can't understand.
I feel more composed, with a faint sense of stir and tension.
I must take action against Sun Da Hai in the core area of the haunted niche!
If I make good use of the Eight Seals Banner, there's a chance that I might succeed!
The premise is that there is only Sun Da Hai there, not the leader of the haunted niche.
The strength of the haunted niche leader should be comparable to that of the Elder Nine?
Is it possible that Yu Xiu can also deal with him?
Of course, as soon as the thought arose, I suppressed it.
Even if the Jinyang haunted niche is just an area, the haunted niche leader still has a lot of cards in hand.
If possible, avoid causing unnecessary changes and troubles.
By then... as long as I get Sun Da Hai to the regulation court, Sun Zhuo will have no way to deny it!
Moreover, as long as the night guard can succeed, Uncle Huang will have no way to make things easier.
In my thoughts, time passed quickly.
I didn't know how long it had been, as the room itself was quite dim, and I couldn't tell whether it was day or night.
The night guard grew impatient and stepped out from the beam, landing on the ground.
Soon, she turned back into that thin woman with red powder and skeleton.
"It seems that the bastard must have encountered something else and hasn't come back yet."
"In case there will be more trouble later, let's go find the one you mentioned first, Sun Da Hai."
The woman's voice was shrill, but there was a hint of impatience. "The current town guardian is cautious. I will hand over Sun Da Hai to the superior city guardian."
My heart skipped a beat.
The current town guardian?
Uncle Huang's duty is actually the town guardian?
He's so unassuming, yet he holds such a high position and status.
Soon, I started to think about some details.
The respect that the regulation court and the guardian office showed to Uncle Huang was itself somewhat unusual.
If ordinary positions also received such treatment, the status of the temple of the city god would be too high.
"Let's go." The woman glanced at me and said, "You should be able to find the place. Follow me, and you shouldn't be asked many questions."
"If you are asked, just say that Elder Nine sent you to deliver me to Sun Da Hai." I immediately added.
"Hmm." The woman nodded.
I pointed to the entrance door that fitted perfectly in the wall and then went over.
The woman who had transformed into the night guard followed by my side.
The process of opening the door took some time, as the door was too tight. It was only when the night guard transformed into a woman helped me open the door.
The quiet, elongated corridor was empty, and I walked forward with a steady pace.
Following the direction I remembered, I quickly returned to the door of this corridor. Outside, there was another corridor.
The woman furrowed her brow slightly. Clearly, for the night guard, the place's four interconnected corridors were also a headache.
I paused slightly.
This corridor leads to Sun Da Hai's residence on one side, and the other side is the exit.
I didn't go out, instead, I walked straight towards Sun Da Hai's courtyard.
On the way, I didn't encounter anyone else, so I didn't need to use the wording that my planned discussion with the night guard.
The corridor ended at a courtyard.
The flower garden was trimmed neatly. A tree branch held a filigree enamel birdcage.
It was early night, and the round moon of Jiaobai hung in the dome, its moonlight sprinkling down.
The colorful magpie, whose head was buried in its wings, seemed to be asleep.
The woman who had transformed into the night guard glanced at me and her nostrils slightly twitched, her eyes then fixed on a house in the courtyard.
Suddenly, there was a loud noise as the magpie forcibly flapped its wings, waking up.
"Mother!"
"Mother!"
The magpie cried out sharply.
The woman furrowed her brow.
I moved quickly, retrieved the Eight Seals Banner, and inserted one directly in front of the courtyard gate.
After that, I quickly pushed the door shut and walked around the edge of the courtyard, continuously inserting flags.
"Sealed!"
"Sealed!"
The magpie's screeching was extremely piercing.
The house that was being stared at suddenly turned on a light.
The door creaked open, and out came none other than Sun Da Hai.
Originally, Sun Da Hai had a gloomy expression, but when he saw me, he was overjoyed once again.
But the surprise quickly turned into suspicion!
I didn't stop moving, and the Eight Seals Banner was now completely in place.
"What does the leader mean?" Sun Da Hai muttered, his tone filled with anger.
I immediately realized what was happening.
Is Sun Da Hai misunderstanding?
The woman is indeed called Huajie, and so did the previous leader.
Sun Da Hai must be thinking that the haunted niche is turning against the leader.
I stopped in my tracks and looked at Sun Da Hai coldly.
"Huajie" then walked straight towards Sun Da Hai!
She spoke softly, "I have come to deliver Luo Xian's spirit to you, Sun Da Hai!"
"Idiot!" Sun Da Hai was even more angry and cursed: "Give it to me? First, use the Eight Seals Banner to seal its aura?"
"What kind of nonsense did Luo Xian's spirit say to you!"
