Big dreamer

They are all monks in the Qigong period, and have not yet entered the Soul Condensation period. Their consciousness cannot be released for the time being. If Hu Yong is unwilling to do this, then no one else can do it.

"Forget it. I am most afraid of trouble. Let's just spend money to get it done. I have a few "breath-suppressing talismans" here, which can temporarily seal your breath. As long as you don't deliberately mobilize your mana to operate, there will be no breath leakage. In this way, those ghosts and spirits will not be able to detect your existence, and we can travel safely." Hu Yong hesitated for a moment, and then he said as if he had made up his mind.

Then, he saw his wrist turn, and the light flashed in his palm again, and several talismans made of green material emerged from it.

When Shen Luo saw the Qingshuang paper, he knew that this talisman must not be an ordinary low-level talisman, and he also understood why Hu Yong was hesitant before.

"The usage of this breath-retaining talisman is very simple. Just stick it on your Dantian or Tanzhong. You don't need to turn your magic power to activate it. It can borrow your magic power to operate and help you conceal your breath." Hu Yong distributed the talisman to several people and said.

Shen Luo was a little hesitant when he heard this. Needless to say, Dantian is the root of cultivation, and Tanzhong is also a key point in the human body. He instinctively resisted and stuck the talisman on these two places.

"Thank you, senior." Lu He immediately took it and thanked him with a fist.

"Thank you, senior, for the talisman." Jin Dun and others also echoed.

"Give me a fart talisman. Do you really think I'm a local tyrant? This breath-retaining talisman is just for you to use. You have to return it to me after use." Hu Yong glared at him and said without the demeanor of a senior.

Everyone couldn't help laughing when they heard it.

Hu Yong picked up a talisman himself, and without any hesitation, he lifted up his outer robe and slapped it on his dantian position against his inner lining. Seeing Shen Luo looking at him, he said:

"My cultivation is higher than yours, so the fluctuation of my breath is naturally stronger. It is safer to stick it on the dantian. As for you... stick it on the dantian or the tanzhong, it's up to you."

Lü He and others naturally followed Hu Yong's example, and all of them stuck it on the dantian position. Only Yun Niang thought that sticking it on the dantian was too indecent, so she raised her hand and slapped it on the center of her plump chest.

Shen Luo did not follow the crowd, and still stuck the talisman on his chest like Yun Niang.

Then, Hu Yong turned his palm again, and light shone in his palm again, and a dark golden disc the size of a bronze mirror emerged in the middle, with fine carvings on it. The outer circle divided the 365 degrees of the Zhoutian, and the inner circle marked the 24 solar terms. There were also nine palaces and eight trigrams carved inside, and an inch-long dragon-shaped pointer was hung in the middle.

Several people gathered around to take a look. As soon as the evil-seeking disk appeared, the pointer on it began to spin wildly.

Hu Yong raised his eyebrows, put his fingers together and pointed at the center of the disk.

A thin thread of magic power flowed out from his fingertips and poured directly into the slender dragon-shaped pointer.

At the dragon head of the pointer, two fine golden lights seemed to shine from the dragon's eyes, and the rotating pointer suddenly slowed down and gradually stopped.

However, just when everyone thought that the dust had settled, the pointer seemed to be against them. When it was about to stop and point to the Xun position in the southeast of the Eight Diagrams, it suddenly turned to the Li position in the south.

After that, the pointer was like being attracted by two magnets at the same time, shaking its head between the Xun position and the Li position, swinging back and forth.

"Senior, what's going on?" Shen Luo looked at the pointer that pointed to him from time to time and asked in confusion.

"It doesn't make sense. This thing shouldn't fail. Could it be in two places?" Hu Yong ignored Shen Luo's question and showed a solemn expression for the first time, wondering.

"Divided into two places, could it be that there are two ghost generals?" Jin Dun's face was solemn and he was a little surprised.

"Senior, could it be that the Yin Sha Qi here is too scattered? Although the ghost general is the strongest evil spirit, when the distance is too far, this evil search disk cannot accurately capture and locate it?" Lin Qing analyzed.

"Fellow Daoist Lin, what you said makes sense." Lu He nodded in agreement.

"That's not bad. Anyway, the direction is between due south and southeast. Let's go to the Li direction first. If we can't find it, we will rush east to the Xun position. I don't believe we can't touch it." Hu Yong heard this and said.

"Okay." Everyone responded in unison.

Hu Yong held the compass in his hand, and everyone followed on both sides and began to rush towards the south indicated by the compass.

After walking for about half a minute, Hu Yong suddenly raised his hand and signaled everyone to stop.

"What's wrong, senior? What happened?" Shen Luo and his companions were puzzled and asked after stopping.

"There is a group of evil creatures approaching ahead. Let's wait before we go." Hu Yong said as he led everyone to hide behind a boulder.

Not long after he finished speaking, two groups of ghost soldiers hurriedly passed by in front. Although they were also wearing bronze armor, they were holding knives and swords in their hands, and they looked stronger than those they had met before.

"We can go now." Hu Yong stood up and said after the group of ghost soldiers had left for a while.

However, after walking a short distance, Hu Yong asked them to speed up again. Several people hurriedly passed through a low bush and came to a few tall pine trees before stopping.

Immediately afterwards, near the bush, several zombies with nearly rotten bodies passed by, their limbs were stiff, and they jumped and chased a black-haired hare.

Shen Luo caught a glimpse of one of them jumping and something fell from his body. When Hu Yong told him to continue on his way, he asked everyone to wait while he went back to pick up the thing.

"Fellow Daoist Shen, what treasure did you pick up?" Lu He asked in confusion.

Shen Luo's expression was slightly strange, and he opened his palms. There was a palm-sized token in his palm, with the four words "Imperial System of the Tang Dynasty" engraved on it.

"Official token..." Kington said a little surprised.

"It seems that among the two groups of people who came in to perform tasks earlier, there were people from the Tang Dynasty government." Lu He said thoughtfully.

"That zombie just now... looks like they failed." Yun Niang frowned.

"Even the government has got involved. If they don't succeed once, they will definitely send more powerful people later. It seems that we have to work harder, but we can't let them take the lead, otherwise we will just draw water from a bamboo basket. It's all in vain, nothing good can be gained." Hu Yong was not surprised, but looked a little anxious.

Hearing this, Lu He and others nodded.

Shen Luo put away the token in his hand, but felt a little uneasy in his heart. This task, which even the Tang Dynasty officials were involved in, might not be as simple as they thought.

After that, Hu Yong led a few of them to stop and go, dodging Yin soldiers and zombies from time to time. The journey was really peaceful and stable, and finally stopped in an open area in the forest.
