40. Mountain Ghost. Dangerous--For_The Water of the Canglang_Brother [5/10](2/2)

"Hu, Hu"

The mountain ghost's breathing was heavy and chaotic, as if he had a nightmare. He leaned against Shen Qiu's arms, his long clothes were soaked in sweat.

But in the eyes under the mask, the mind is also returning.

"I'm sorry, I didn't help me."

The moment he regained his mind, Shan Gui said something to Chen Qiu in a low tone.

He was saying that when Chen Qiu and Hua Qing were fighting with Dongling Immortal Lord just now, he was supposed to help him and did not say goodbye.

He seemed to be explaining, for fear that Chen Qiu would blame him for this.

"You still treat me as an outsider, so kind."

Chen Qiu said warmly:

"Don't worry, we have won, that thousand-year-old ghost can no longer harm people.

My brother has helped me so much, so now I should help me.

Brothers don’t have to be afraid of the evil spirits in the Chengying Sword.

That old ghost just relies on his soul to harm people, and our brothers have some ways to deal with it!

Brother, please tell me first, if you want to take over your soul, is it a drooping old Taoist, wearing a black Taoist robe, a jade hairpin on its head, and a decoration of a shadow that penetrates the Yin-Yang fish behind it?"

Shangui nodded and said:

"It's true, how do you know it?"

"I've seen it."

Chen Qiu laughed, and he looked at the Chengying Sword that was held in his hand and said:

"I saw it when we first met. I was ignorant at the time and thought it was Chengying Sword Spirit."

The mountain ghost coughed and said:

“Actually, it’s not the first time I’ve encountered it.

That day, the night before we intercepted the Northern Dynasty envoy, I dreamed that I fought with him for a night. But at that time, I didn’t want to worry you, so I didn’t tell you.”

"Like Xiao Tie, as long as you get close to me and dream, you will be disturbed and strange dreams will arise."

Chen Qiu sighed.

He said:

"It seems that my brother has this disaster today because of me."

Zhang Moye told Chen Qiu in Jinling that the power of sword and jade can be shared by others, but some premises, Xiao Tie's strange dream and the dream of the mountain ghost that night were all born.

Chen Qiu was not confused about these things, he said to the mountain ghost:

"If we had encountered this before, we could only catch it blindly, but now, it is not as good as before. Brother, I have two ways to help you eliminate the evil spirits in the Chengying Sword.

First, use a strange object to pull it out of the Chengying Sword, just like restraining the Immortal Lord of the East Spirit. With the strength of this soul, it can be transformed in just a moment.

But brother, I think this method is a bit wasteful for you."

"Um?"

The mountain ghost recovered some strength. He sat upright, looked at Chen Qiu and said:

"How can I explain this?"

"Brother, the sword technique has reached a bottleneck. Jinghong's sword technique has been completed, just like the sword technique in the sea that moves mountains, laying a solid foundation, but if you practice later, you will have to understand the true meaning of the sword style."

Chen Qiu held the Chengying Sword in his hand and rubbed it with his fingers. He looked at the dark sword and said:

"According to the inheritance of the Immortal Sect, at this time, the elder brother should enter the Stone Wall of Zhaoying and confront the sword shadow left by the Master of Chengying Sword in history.

In the continuous battle, I realized the two changes in swordsmanship.

After being skilled in using it, you have to use this method to try to learn the highest secret art of the Immortal Sect, the Yueque Sword Classic.

But we opened the Stone Wall of Zhaoying to fight against the Immortal Lord of Dongling. Although we won by chance, the sword shadow did not exist, which cut off our brother's path to learning swords.

It’s a bit too regretful that the Yueque Immortal Sword was lost here.”

Speaking of this, Chen Qiu grabbed the blade of Chengying Sword and handed the hilt to Shan Gui.

He said:

"The evil spirits in this sword are the last chance to learn the immortal sword, brother.

This is also the second method I mentioned.

I use the secret technique of sword and jade to bring you and this evil spirit into a dream. If you can defeat it, you can learn all the exquisite martial arts in its memory.

But this method also has its drawbacks.”

Chen Qiu touched Jianyu and said:

"My jade has the ability to restrain the soul. I have been trying this method these days, but I am not yet skilled. At present, I can only pull my soul out of my body, introduce it into a dream, and maintain it for a period of time.

But we are a man in the martial arts world who does not cultivate the soul and will have no magic. Once the soul leaves the body for too long, it will damage the soul.

Even if you finally enter the body safely, you will have the root cause of the disease.

This is a very risky thing.”

The mountain ghost heard Chen Qiu's words about the soul-hiding and dreaming things, just like listening to a heavenly book.

But I had personally fought against immortals before. I knew the secrets of this world. It was not surprising that my brothers had to use immortal fate and had various secret methods.

He sat cross-legged beside Shen Qiu, thought for a moment, then looked up and asked:

"How long can my soul last after entering that dream?"

"A half an hour."

Chen Qiu raised a finger and said:

"No matter how long it is, it will make the soul weak. Half an hour is the limit, but in the dream time, it can be extended to four hours, which is enough for the elder brother to fight to the death.

This soul-body connection is related to life and life. Without the blessing of spiritual energy, even if the mind and soul return to the body safely, it will cause you to fall into long-term weakness.

It may take half a year or even longer to recover.”

"But brother, don't have to hurry up."

Chen Qiu said again:

"If this time fails, I will confine the evil spirit to the sword jade. After my brother recovers, I will still challenge it."

"Then come!"

The mountain ghost breathed a sigh of relief, as decisive as before, and grabbed the hilt of the Chengying sword in front of him.

He said:

“How should I do it?”

"Steal my hand."

Chen Qiu stretched out his hand and said to the mountain ghost:

"Concentrate and calm your mind. No matter what situation you encounter, don't resist. Just fall asleep peacefully and leave the rest to me."

The mountain ghost did not hesitate at all. Even if he was concerned about his soul and life, he absolutely believed in his brothers. He reached out and grabbed Chen Qiu's palm.

When he closed his eyes, calmed down and was about to fall asleep, he suddenly asked:

"If I can't defeat the evil spirit and be stabbed under the sword by him, will I die?"

"Won't."

Chen Qiu also closed his eyes and said softly:

"I don't allow you to die!"
