In the square.

Several people were still confronting the thick fog that hid the resentful spirits. Fortunately, the tree ignited by the talisman illuminated a small corner like a torch, and the talisman attached to the ground also prevented the invasion of evil spirits.

However, Ruan Zhan was a little uneasy. It came from his inner feelings. I couldn't tell why, but I just felt that the threat was nearby.

Swish--

A cool breeze passed by the ends of his hair, and the direction and speed were strange, which made him nervous immediately. He took a breath towards the direction where the wind came, and keenly smelled an unusual fishy smell and moisture.

The empty city was surrounded by thick fog, and the periphery was sealed by him with a barrier. It was like everyone was staying in a huge glass box. Even if there was wind flowing, it would not blow a cool breeze. Moreover, the wind blowing from the other side of the lake was invisible but could feel it.

"Xiao Xia, come here." He reached out his hand accurately.

After holding the little hand in his hand, he immediately pulled her to him, "Hold my hand and don't let go no matter what!"

Xiao Xia responded without asking what happened. She only saw Ruan Zhan’s face solemn, knowing that something must have happened again, but she just needs to follow him. She believes that he can solve it, so she will never talk much.

Swish--

Another gust of wind blew over, much stronger than the last time. Ruan Zhan held Xiaoxia's hand tightly and used his slightly release of spiritual energy to listen carefully to the source of the sound. In the sound that ordinary people could not perceive, it was heard that something came from far and near, with the sound of "wavering" water and the strange sound of "rumble" getting closer and closer!

What is that, why do you also carry the two energy of water and fire?

He frowned and thoughtful, suddenly remembered something, was shocked, and shouted, "Don't throw away all the talismans, lie next to the flower pond!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately pulled Xiao Xia to the nearby flower pond and reached out to protect Xiao Xia's body tightly. There was fresh soil and flowers by the flower pond, and he could accurately judge the location. What surprised him was that in such a harsh environment, the resentment did not kill the flowers and still bloomed normally.

Perhaps, this is the relationship between that tower. He is not very proficient in Feng Shui, but from the appearance, position and five elements, the tower seems to be holding something, and even has sealing power. If there is another accident that he cannot control, he has to take these people to the tower to see if there is a way out.

After shouting loudly, he hid first. When the rest of the people were in high concentration, they were stunned at first when they heard this, and then they hurriedly did as they did. Zuo De even pulled Mao Fu over.

All this happened in just a dozen seconds, and as soon as they left the protection area of ​​the "torch" and the spell, thick fog attacked.

Seeing that the fog was about to float over and swallow them, Liu Hong screamed in fear. But with her scream, a sharp sound of breaking water also came from the artificial lake, and then a ball of black water hit the air!

Although the ball of black water flew very fast, Xiao Xia still saw clearly that it was a fish-shaped ball of water, like a fat transparent fish lamp during the Lantern Festival. However, its belly was not a light or candlelight, but a strange black talisman, like a tiny snake wrapped around it, wriggling as the black fish moves forward.

After the black fish rushed out of the lake, it seemed to have eyes or some guidance system, and went directly to the direction of the "torch" and the spells on the ground, and then decomposed into countless tiny water droplets in the air, but they did not disperse, but did not waste a single drop, and fell in the place where everyone had sat in!

Immediately, all kinds of strange screams sounded at the same time.

Xiao Xia leaned in Ruan Zhan's arms and watched all this in horror. The water droplets formed by the black fish had a huge corrosive force, which not only extinguished the "torch" in an instant, but also none of the other things that were poured were spared. White smoke rose from the marble ground in the square, making a "wavy" sound, which was corroded to the potholes. The plants withered immediately when they touched the black water droplets, and the paper talismans actually burned in a blink of an eye. Even the paper ash was left.

I don’t know how the water transformed from the black fish has such great destructive power, and even the invisible fog was invaded. Wherever the black water passed, the vague fog seemed to have become tangible. Accompanied by a series of shrill screams that seemed to be extremely far and very close, it quickly fell on the ground like pieces of rags in the air, and then turned into a stream of white air, disappearing like evaporation!

The surrounding fog was shocked by this external force, and was mixed with crying, cursing, and buzzing sounds, retreating like a tide in the cold wind, flashing out a large area and retreating straight to the periphery of the square.

"Where has the fog receded?" Ruan Zhan asked Xiaoxia.

“Outside the square.”

"While they haven't caught up, hurry up and go to the tower!"

Before Xiaoxia could answer, Liu Hong rushed over her first, almost pushing Xiaoxia to fall, followed by reporter Ma, and Mao Fu, who didn't know what happened, laughed and shouted, but followed him like a fun.

Only Zuo De did not run away, followed Xiaoxia and the others. Because Ruan Zhan couldn't see it, Xiaoxia did not dare to run away, so she could only walk quickly.

The thick fog behind him was frightened by the black fish that suddenly appeared and retreated for a while, but when the powerful corrosive power disappeared and everyone started running into the tower, the resentful spirits also recovered and immediately chased after him.

While walking quickly, Xiao Xia turned her head and saw that the fog seemed to be white smoke blowing by the strong wind, surging at an extremely fast speed, and was about to offset the distance advantage they formed by their advance movement!

"You go to the tower first!" Ruan Zhan looked calm and pushed Xiao Xia slightly.

"Never! Unless I die!" Xiao Xia hugged Ruan Zhan's arm tightly and looked back. Seeing that the fog was almost ten meters away, it would cover them.

Ruan Zhan knew that Xiaoxia would not let go no matter what, so he had no time to persuade him at this time, so he had to wave his hand back, but he just waved his hand and didn't hit anything. Taking advantage of the fog that was stagnant, he said a word to Xiaoxia: Run!

There is only a winding corridor from the road leading to the tower from the square. Although Xiaoxia's speed is not fast enough, Ruan Zhan cannot see it. She can only run by pulling it. Fortunately, Ruan Zhan ran firmly and relaxed, and asked her to lead the way with full trust, so she didn't feel any effort. Besides, Zuo De has been breaking the back, ensuring that Ruan Zhan will not fall into the water from this narrow path!

After running up the corridor, Xiaoxia realized that she must not fall into the lake!

When reporter Tan turned into a dead fish, they came to the lake. At that time, the lake was clear, at least normal and flowing. At this moment, the entire lake surface was like a rusty iron plate. Not only did it flow at all, but the color also turned dark brown. Moreover, the iron plate was like a terrible crusher. Xiao Xia accidentally ran away a shoe while running and was kicked into the lake by Zuo De, who was unresponsive behind. As a result, she saw with her own eyes that countless rows of teeth suddenly floated on the lake surface that was about to turn black, and she rushed to bite her shoes into pieces!

What's in the water? It's even more powerful than the hungry shark!

But she was not in the mood to think about this, nor did she have time to turn her head and look, but just ran forward with all her heart - ten meters, five meters, three meters -

Just as she was about to step into the tower gate, she felt the fog had surrounded her, and the crying sounds of hair standing on her hair came from her ears!

Only one meter!

She screamed and rushed forward desperately. At the same time, the hand was pulling Ruan Zhan desperately. The two of them almost jumped into the tower! Amid the angry wail, the tower gate closed behind them with a "bang"!

可以可―

The gate was smashed and kept shaking, as if it would fall down immediately, but after all, the resentful spirit was locked outside, and they temporarily escaped another disaster.

Xiaoxia felt that her heart was about to crack and she collapsed on the ground and could not move. Her whole body was only enough to barely breathe. She gasped heavily and turned to see Ruan Zhan. She saw that although he was not as uncomfortable as hers, she was also panting.

Xiao Xiaxin called out a great cry. Fortunately, the people entering the tower ahead opened the door. Fortunately, the tower gate was wide enough but not too high. Fortunately, they caught up with the last moment, and fortunately Zuo Deneng came in time.

Several people sat like that for a while, and after their breathing calmed down, they realized that the tower was too quiet. The three people who had entered the tower did not make any sound at all, and even Mao Fu, who had been laughing wildly, did not make any sound.

"They went up the tower." Zuod pointed to the stairs.

Since there is no one living in the new town, the tower's managers are of course not in place, so there is a thick layer of dust in the tower. From the place where they are, you can clearly see the messy footprints extending from the gate to the stairs.

"Are we going up?" Xiaoxia asked.

"It's better to make a decision quickly." Zuo De glanced at the door.

I saw that outside the window was surrounded by layers of thick fog, and I could not see any scenery outside, as if they were locked in a secret room with white walls on all sides. And although the resentful spirits were not pounding the doors and windows, a trace of cold air was seeping into the gap. This was similar to their situation in that downtown business house. As long as the time was long, the resentful spirits would sooner or later break through these protection boundaries.

Their resentment was too deep, and it must have been blessed by the person who released them, making them very powerful and almost unstoppable!

"Go up. The spire of the tower is where the energy is gathered, and the barrier force will be stronger." Ruan Zhan said.

The three of them were still Xiao Xia in front, Ruan Zhan in the middle, Zuo De broke the back and slowly climbed up.

The tower is pointed cone-shaped, with the largest space on the bottom floor. A huge bronze bell was placed in the middle. However, the bell was turned upside down, as if it was not to ring. There was a circle of small bronze bells next to it, and all the bells were carved with strange patterns, which made the bronze bell look like an antique for exhibition. Behind the bell was an equally huge incense table, but there was no incense at this time, nor was there a clay statue of Buddha statue. The Buddha statue was painted all over the wall like a mural, but Xiao Xia was in a hurry and did not recognize which Buddha was protecting them, so that those resentful spirits could not come in!

Each of the above floors is very empty, with nothing left, only rows of glass cabinets along the wall. Since the entire tower is surrounded by thick fog, the tower is dark and you can only see the road, so Xiaoxia has no intention of visiting.

They walked up one by one, until they reached the eighth floor before stopping. There was no cabinet on this floor, and the ground was filled with bamboo objects. The three people who arrived early sat around there. Because of their arrival, they looked shocked, and Mao Fu actually lay on the ground and fell asleep.

“Why not go to the top floor?”

"It's too dark and too small!" Liu Hong replied, "I'm afraid!" She said and looked at Zuo De.

After all, Zuo De was soft-hearted and sighed, but walked to her and became her support.

"Then let's go up!" Xiao Xia said.

He is not afraid of being dark and small, nor is he afraid of being dirty. The important thing is that there is a place where Ruan Zhan can recover well, and he also needs to contact the outside world, so Jing is the first priority. If he cannot recover, all of them will not be able to survive. But even if they cannot go out alive, she wants to stay alone with Ruan Zhan.

Ruan Zhan didn't say anything, Ren Xiaoxia pulled him to the top floor. In fact, since they started climbing the tower, he hadn't spoken anymore.

The top layer was indeed black, but it was not as good as not to see the fingers. Xiaoxia touched her pocket, and the phone was still there, and she was not lost because of running around. She pressed the key, and the faint blue light on the screen illuminated the surroundings.

The reason why the top floor is so dark is that the windows here are very small. Although they are surrounded by a full circle around the wall, they are only three inches wide, making people feel like they are locked in a box, with only one box gap opened, which is very strange.

"Are you okay?" Xiaoxia and Ruan Zhan sat side by side on the ground.

"Fortunately, I must recover as soon as possible." Ruan Zhan frowned, "The situation is getting tighter and tighter now, and it is not safe to be outside. Didn't you see it? Sima Nan is coming!"

"He made that black fish?"

"So it's a black fish!" Ruan Zhan snorted coldly, "I have been thinking about his Taoist skills, and now I understand that his most proud trick is to fold various things with talisman paper and use magic. It's really high-end!"

"You seem to be familiar with it?"

Xiaoxia's question made Ruan Zhan speechless for a moment, and then slowly said: "Sima Nan may have a relationship with me, because my father can do this. When he was a child, he often folded small animals with paper to accompany me. He usually didn't talk to me, but I thought he didn't love me. In fact, I thought no one in this world would love me, so I hated him a little, hated him for taking me in, but didn't give me any attention. He was very unconscientious, right?" Ruan Zhan fell into memories of the past, "What did he teach me, although I remember it.

I got off, but I never practiced. Even if I could use it by accident because of my natural ability, I would seal it up and never use it. I wanted to make him angry, but he still said nothing, as if he couldn't see it. In fact, he knew everything, but he was just patient with me! I was sent to him at the age of five, and he left me at the age of seventeen. He had been treating me so calmly for twelve years. I never understood him, but now I understand. Although I can't say it, I seem to understand his heart a little."

Xiao Xia listened quietly to Ruan Zhan's words, and watched his eyes gradually become wet. He did not interrupt him, but just leaned closer and held his cold hand. He seemed so gentle and generous, and in fact he buried his heart very deeply and rarely expressed his feelings like this. When she gradually got closer to his heart, she realized that he was more bitter than everyone in this world, and it aroused the determination to warm him forever and accompany him.

If you want to be with him, don’t give up no matter what!

"How angry I was at that time!" Ruan Zhan smiled bitterly, "Like a hedgehog, if someone approaches, I will stab people, wanting the whole world to hate me!"

"It's okay, I just love you." Xiao Xia said softly, "I want the whole world to hate you, so that no one will rob you with me."

Her words, both voice, tone and meaning, were too gentle. Ruan Zhan felt that his heart had melted. He stretched out his arms to hold her in his arms. He felt her warm lips pressing up, and he couldn't help but catch them and kissed them deeply.

In the dark and cold room, it became warm because of this lingering passionate kiss. Sima Nan, what is resentful spirit, what is empty city, everything is insignificant. Only her love for him and his desire for her is the most important thing in the world!

a long time--

"If you do this, I can't untie the spell that seals my psychic energy!" Ruan Zhan gasped, and while the kiss had not yet gone too far from being fired, he tried hard to pull Xiao Xia away, "If this continues, we will really become the same life mandarin duck!"

"Okay okay!" Xiao Xia pecked Ruan Zhan naughtyly on his lips before letting go, "Tell me first, I won't argue with you if you have any connection with Sima Nan."

"To be honest, I don't know the specific situation." Ruan Zhan frowned again, "I just know his magic, my father can do it. You don't understand. In Taoism, sects have a deep understanding of it. If there is no special relationship, one sect will not know about the affairs of another sect. It's like Bao Datong, his father and my father are good friends who have had fate, but we don't understand each other's Taoism."

"He can't be your uncle or something?" Xiao Xia guessed.

"It is very likely, but it may also be other relationships. In short, the origin is very deep." Ruan Zhan said: "So, although I know him, it is not all, but he may know all my Taoism. I must think of a way, otherwise I will not be able to defeat him."

"Okay, I won't quarrel!" Xiao Xia knew that as long as two people stayed in the same room, she simply stood up, "I'll give it to you - what's the point - the Dharma Protector, yes, I'll give you the Dharma Protector. Now it seems peaceful, I'll just sit on the stairs outside the gate, you think slowly and recover slowly. If something happens, we'll just call each other."

Ruan Zhan nodded, and heard Xiao Xia open the door lightly, then sat on the stairs, leaning against the door.

He wanted to save her and also break up with Sima Nan, so he had to recover his abilities and come up with a good way! Now it seems that there is a sharp sword hanging above their heads, not only him and Xiaoxia, but also Wanli outside. If it takes a little longer or if he is a little weak, he may all lose his life!

He must win!

Ruan Zhan calmed down and tried his best to suppress the intoxicating tenderness in his heart, focusing his spirit on restoring his intelligence and thinking about strategies!

But Xiao Xia, who was sitting outside the door, thought: Where is Ah Bai?

Neither of them noticed that the tower had changed!
