Chapter 179 A familiar face came again

After a while, Helianjie's men hurried in from outside and said, "Several people came out of the town, but they were seriously injured and possessed by evil spirits. They are now lying outside the village entrance and were stopped from entering the village."

When the two young Taoist priests in the courtyard heard this, their faces changed drastically and they ran out in a hurry. They were worried that something had happened to their master.

Upon hearing this, Old Man Hong also hurried out to check the situation. This person possessed by evil spirits must not enter the village. He must be stopped, otherwise he will bring disaster to the villagers!

Helian Jie was about to turn around and leave, but before leaving, he said to Ning Ji: "I hope Brother Ding can help me find my sister."

After saying that, he hurried out to see what was going on and learn more about it, which would help him find his little sister.

In a blink of an eye, everyone in the yard had left, leaving only Ning Ji and Si He.

"Husband, shall we go and take a look too?"

"it is good."

After locking the door, the two of them left the yard and walked towards the village entrance.

Wei Xiaohu pulled the carriage to the side of the yard and stood beside it. He didn't dare to go and watch the fun.

At this time, a circle of people gathered at the entrance of the village. They were some Taoists who did not enter the town. They were checking on the injured people. The villagers in the village did not dare to get close. They just watched from afar, and were also on guard against them bringing people possessed by evil spirits into the village.

The villagers don’t know how to exorcise evil spirits, but if someone is injured, they cannot enter the village and must seek treatment outside the village.

"Those Taoist priests have been possessed by evil spirits, right? I just saw that their faces looked very ugly, their foreheads were black, and the blood on their wounds was also a little black, as if they were poisoned."

"That's probably the case. After all, there's a lot of evil energy in that town, so it's not surprising that he was contaminated by it. But the injury is really serious. His hand is broken. I don't know how he got hurt like this."

"Speaking of which, aren't these Taoist priests quite formidable? After they went in yesterday, they took out a lot of valuables, large and small bags. It was really enviable to see them. How come they were injured so badly today?"

"Maybe I was lucky yesterday and didn't run into anything powerful. Do you think the things in that town are that easy to deal with? So many people went in there before, and none of them met a good end."

"Hey~ If this continues, we won't be able to stay in this village anymore. We'd better leave for a while in a couple of days. This town is too weird."

"It's all caused by greed. Since everyone in the town is dead, let's just burn it down and put an end to it all, so that the 'things' inside won't come out and cause harm to others."

"That's easy for you to say. The town is so big, it's not that easy to burn. If it's not burned well, the 'stuff' inside will escape first."

……

The villagers in the village were talking in a flurry, their eyes fixed on a group of people not far ahead. Their emotions were complicated, but more of them were sadness and fear, fearing that disaster would come.

When Si He and Ning Ji walked out, they heard the villagers talking.

It was almost dusk, and the sky was dyed orange by the setting sun, while the dark clouds above the town became thicker and could not be blown away by the wind.

The same was true of the fog in the town. As the sky gradually darkened, the fog seemed to become a little thicker. From afar, the whole town was gloomy and silent, with only the sound of the wind.

Not far from the village entrance, three injured and unconscious Taoists were lying on the ground, their blood dyed the ground red, which was very eye-catching.

The three of them were surrounded by a circle of fellow practitioners, who helped them stop the bleeding, bandage the wounds, feed them pills, or help expel the evil spirits from their bodies.

There was a circle of officials surrounding the group. They didn't dare to get too close and just watched from afar, fearing that evil spirits might come over.

"The wound marks are so strange, like they were bitten. I don't know what happened to them in there. Why is this 'thing' in this town so hard to get rid of?"

"What did they shout when they ran out just now? Did you hear it clearly?"

"I didn't hear clearly. It was like there was phlegm stuck in their throats. Who knows what they were saying."

"But it's a good thing they came out alive. It's better than not coming out at all. The group of people who went in with them before haven't come out yet. I guess they are in great danger."

……

Si He and Ning Ji stood not far from the village entrance, and like everyone else, they watched from afar and did not get too close.

The atmosphere in the crowd ahead was heavy, and panic was slowly spreading. Even the police officers could no longer stay.

Helian Jie brought his men and walked into the group of people. The current situation was indeed not good for him. The town was too dangerous, and it was even more difficult to find people.

He was even more worried that the government would order the town to be burned down, and then even the ashes would not be found.

At this moment, the wounds of the injured and unconscious people have been bandaged, and the evil spirits in their bodies have been temporarily suppressed, but it will take time to completely expel them, and it is not convenient to treat them here.

However, regarding the decision to carry the man back to the village for treatment, not only did the villagers disagree, but even nearly half of the Taoist priests and officials here disagreed.

Because they would stay in the village temporarily at night, no one wanted to have someone with evil spirits around them. Even if the evil spirits were temporarily suppressed, they were still afraid of accidents.

Finally, the unconscious Taoists were carried to a pavilion outside the village entrance and left to be looked after by their disciples. The disciples had no choice but to pay a sum of money and ask a few Taoists they knew well to help look after their master, heal his wounds and expel the evil spirits from his body.

If it was ordinary evil spirits entering the body, they, the disciples, could handle it, but the evil spirits in this town were extraordinary and very tricky. Their skills were too shallow, and some things, though done in the same way, would have different effects on different people. They were unable to completely expel the evil spirits now, and could only ask others for help.

A group of people worked quickly, and soon they had decorated the pavilion. A lot of talisman papers were pasted in various directions, and talismans were painted with cinnabar. The color was bright red and dazzling, which made people inexplicably afraid.

Helian Jie was also standing not far away, watching with a serious expression. There was an older man beside him, who was talking to him in a low voice.

After taking a look at the pavilion, Si He turned her gaze to the man next to Helian Jie. This man was no ordinary person. No wonder Helian Jie did not look afraid even though he was in such a dangerous place.

At this moment, another group of people came on the official road in the distance. They were in a similar situation to Helian Jie. They were all riding tall horses and carrying swords. The leader was also a familiar face, Zhao Laoxie.

When Helianjie saw Zhao Laoxie, he waved to him, and they drove their horses over here.

The group stopped at the entrance of the village. Zhao Laoxie dismounted and walked towards Helianjie. However, when he casually glanced at the village, he suddenly saw Si He and Ning Ji. He couldn't help feeling a little surprised. He didn't expect to meet these two people here.
