Among the undulating mountains of Ziwuling, there is a mountain with walls standing on it. This is the largest concentration of bandits near Ningcheng, Tieguzhai.

Just after the heavy snow, most places on Ziwuling were covered with a layer of snow, but there was not even a single snowflake around Tieguzhai, and all the snow was cleaned.

At this moment, on the arrow tower at the village gate, there were all the best-looking crossbowmen in the village.

At this moment, a man in strong suit hurried to the gate of the village on a horse.

The village gate opened immediately, and the man turned over and dismounted, running all the way, heading deep into the Tiegu Village.

When the bandits around him saw this person, they looked blind.

The man went deep into the village and walked into a thatched hut that was slightly abrupt among the tall buildings.

"What? The county magistrate, has he given another order?"

A hoarse voice rang out from the dim thatched house.

The man knelt on one knee and said, "Yes, Zhang Kang is ordered by the county magistrate, and I will ask you to help deal with someone, Lu Ran from the Lu family in Ningcheng!"

"Oh? Is this Lu Ran a good player in the world? Or a Qi Refiner?"

"No...he's just a idle playboy!"

"So, what's the difficulty of this boy dealing with? The county magistrate actually asked his elders to take action?"

"Probably the county magistrate is not good at attacking him!"

"Hahaha..." A silence of laughter sounded.

Zhang Kang was creepy.

The hoarse voice sounded again: "Have you brought Lu Ran's clothes or hair?"

"Inside!" The man presented a small box with both hands.

"Okay, I understand. Put down the things, you can get them off first!"

This man retreated from this thatched hut, but he looked like he was surviving after a disaster.

And at this moment, a man like an iron tower walked over with a man who was short and like a dwarf.

"The boss, the second boss!" Zhang Kang hurriedly saluted the two of them.

The man like an iron tower nodded, but the dwarf asked, "Is it the county magistrate who asked grandma to take action again?"

"Yes!"

"What did grandma say?"

"She asked me to come out first!"

When they heard this, the dwarf and the man like an iron tower looked at each other, and both showed serious expressions on their faces. A thought appeared in their minds: Grandma, are you going to do your best?

At this moment, a shrill cry came from the thatched hut, like Devil's cry.

Listening to this creepy voice, even though the iron tower man and the dwarf were both murderers without blinking, their faces turned pale at this moment.

At this moment, it was clear that it was bright, but the thatched hut was extremely dim, with only a few candles shaking constantly.

A haggard old woman kept screaming in her mouth.

And right in front of her, there was a translucent child like a soul body, trembling.

The old woman called for a while, and seeing that the steps to pretend to be a ghost were almost done, she picked up a bronze rusty bell and smiled and said, "Come on, Xiao Anning, be good, come on grandma's side!"

When the boy heard this, he was still motionless.

The old woman's face showed a ferocious look, and the rusty bell in her hand swayed slightly.

"Ah~Ye~" The little boy in the soul immediately showed a miserable look and made a painful cry from his mouth.

"Come on, be good, come here!" The old woman was tempted by her.

The little boy's eyes were filled with timidity and slowly approached the old woman.

The old woman reached out and opened the small box that had been previously covered. It was a strip of cloth inside, and Lu Ran's hair was also on it.

"You sniff it well, go and kill this person, grandma will come back and give you something to eat!" The old woman's face was full of smiles.

The soul-body child's face was full of ignorance. He sniffed hard on the cloth strip and hair, then nodded to the old woman, then flew up lightly, flew out from the grass roof, and went straight to Ningcheng.

A vicious smile appeared on the old woman's face.

But the three people standing outside the thatched hut suddenly felt a gust of cold wind blowing, and they were trembling. Then the man like the tower and the dwarf showed a deep fear in their eyes.

"Who are you asking grandma to kill?" asked the dwarf.

The man in strong outfit said, "Lu Hongyi's son Lu Ran!"

"Oh?" A hint of surprise appeared in the dwarf's eyes, and then he looked at the man like an iron tower.

Both of them had a little surprise in their eyes, because they remembered that they had previously investigated that the death of their third leader, Bao Zheng, seemed to have something to do with Lu Ran. They originally wanted to... However, since grandma has taken action, Lu Ran should be sure to die, which can be regarded as avenging Bao Zheng!

...

...

At this moment, Bi Fan and others were still interrogating Sun Ergou in the backyard.

Lu Ran sat with Lu Xueman in the pavilion of the Mansion Garden, enjoying the snow and plums, warm tea and desserts, and chatting to relieve boredom.

"Xiao Manman, do you think there are any Qi Refiners who can drive away ghosts?" Lu Ran suddenly asked.

Lu Xueman automatically blocked the nickname "Xiao Manman" and said, "If the White Walker can be driven by the Qi Refiner, why should the Qi Refiner be held in a group to survive?"

"Can't it? Then why did I hear that someone seems to be able to exorcise ghosts?" Lu Ran said in confusion.

Hearing this, Lu Xueman thought about it carefully before saying, "Then you have to look at what the hell!"

"What the hell?" Lu Ran subconsciously intervened.

Lu Xueman always felt that Lu Ran's tone was very strange, but he couldn't say anything strange, so he had to ignore Lu Ran and continued: "If the mountain and grass and trees are the essence, this kind of existence is also a ghost, but it is not a white ghost, but a mountain ghost. In many words, they will also be called ghosts and monsters!"

"What is the difference between a mountain ghost and a white ghost?" Lu Ran asked.

Lu Xueman said: "Mountain ghosts and White Ghosts are both ghosts and can harm people, but the difference between the two is that mountain ghosts can harm people or not, because as the essence of mountain plants and trees, they can also eat the spiritual energy of heaven and earth like qi refiners. It is only occasionally, not necessary to harm people; but the White Ghosts are different. They can only absorb the essence of living creatures to strengthen themselves. Otherwise, if they cannot obtain the essence of the body for too long, they will die by themselves, and harming people is necessary!"

"Is that true?" Lu Ran's eyes showed a hint of surprise, "How did the White Walker appear?"

"No one knows how they came from. They only know that when it is very far away, the human race and ancient Qi Refiners will fight against the White Walkers!" Lu Xueman shrugged.

Lu Ran said in confusion again: "Can those great Qi Refiners who climbed the nine floors eliminate the White Walkers?"

"How is it that easy? There are also some strengths and weaknesses. The most powerful and terrifying White Walker may be as high as nine floors, right?" Ignoring Lu Ran's distorted face, Lu Xueman continued: "Of course, I don't know that the strongest White Walker is terrifying at present. But based on years of experience, generally speaking, the more human races or places where there are powerful Qi Refiners, the more terrifying the White Walker will be."

Hearing this, Lu Ran couldn't help but show surprise on his face: "Why wouldn't this be the safest thing to say in a small town?"

"How is that possible? In a small city, there is no protection for Qi Refiner. If you cannot provide enough support, a weak White Walker may make people in a city die! If Qi Refiner is strong enough, even one person will attract a terrifying White Walker. In this way, if you encounter a powerful and terrifying White Walker alone, you will not die? On the contrary, in a big city, even if you encounter a powerful and terrifying White Walker, there are many powerful Qi Refiner!"

"According to countless years of observation, our ancestors found that the White Walkers would not think, and the White Walkers would never appear alone. Therefore, as long as the Qi Refiners follow the rules explored by our ancestors, strictly control the number of people and the strength of the Qi Refiners, and embrace each city into groups, even if the White Walkers occasionally attract, they will be within the range that they can deal with!"

Listening to Lu Xueman's words, Lu Ran couldn't help but fall into thinking: "No wonder, few people in the Sun and Moon Dynasty can obtain the power of residence outside their birthplace, and even if they are traveling, they are allowed to stay in one place for up to five days... It turns out that all this is because of White Walkers? So, if you want to live a more comfortable life, first of all, you should be able to be strong enough to kill ghosts?"

"There are ghosts in this world, which really makes people feel ghosts... Uh, it's so big!"
