A pale hand stretched out from behind the tombstone and laid on it, looking striking and cold, as if the dead dead were about to crawl out of the soil. Then, in Zhou Shaojin's sight, as the pale arm rested on the tombstone, a head also stretched out from behind the tombstone. A dead face that was pale and cold could not be recognized at all, and there was a dark brown liquid flowing from the corner of his mouth...

"Soul-Retaining Chain..." Seeing this scene, Zhou Shaojin no longer hesitated. Not only did the ghost behind crawl out from behind the tombstone, the ghost in front had also walked to the top of the mountain, close to him, holding chopsticks in his left hand and continued to tap the porcelain bowl, but his right hand had already thrown out "Wow...Wow...Wow..."

With Zhou Shaojin's right hand swing, the soul-retaining chain turned into a black shadow and threw it out, as fast as lightning, and more like an extremely fast black snake. As if it had its own life and consciousness, it shot towards the ghost that had just floated to the top of the mountain in front. In Zhou Shaojin's sight, the soul-retaining chain flew away, like a clever black snake, who directly scattered three circles around the ghost, and then directly bound the ghost.

In an instant, the ghost's terrifying face showed Zheng Zha's expression, and his body began to struggle violently, making Zhou Shaojin feel a stream of force coming from his right hand holding the Soul-Retention Chain, as if he was about to break away from his arm. Zhou Shaojin thought to himself. When he used the Soul-Retention Chain for the first time, he felt a sense of connection with his heart, and it seemed that the strength of the Soul-Retention Chain seemed to be entirely determined by his own strength.

At this point, Zhou Shaojin's thoughts moved. The front end of the soul-retaining chain that had been entangled with the ghost suddenly surged and increased suddenly. Then he bent in the air like a black snake and shot towards the ghost who had just crawled out from behind the tombstone behind Zhou Shaojin. This time, driven by Zhou Shaojin's thoughts, the soul-retaining chain pierced directly from the ghost's chest, and then wrapped three circles around the ghost, entangling it tightly.

The ghost opened his mouth and his chest was pierced by the soul-detaining chain. It seemed to be enduring great pain. His pale face turned into distorted pain. His mouth widened, as if he was about to scream, but it did not make any sound, and his body struggled violently like the ghost in front of him.

In the blink of an eye, both ghosts were bound and subdued by the Soul-Retaining Chain as soon as possible. The Soul-Retaining Chain was hovering on the top of the mountain like a long black snake. At this time, Zhou Shaojin also felt that the force coming from the Soul-Retaining Chain held in his right hand had doubled, and there was still some difficulty. It was like after a violent movement at this moment, his physical strength was consumed.

"Sure enough, the Soul-Retaining Chain is in line with one's own will, and the strength of the Soul-Retaining Chain also depends on one's own strength. The Soul-Retaining Chain can be regarded as an extension of one's own limbs. However, unlike one's own limbs, the Soul-Retaining Chain can stretch and retract freely and has a special effect on the soul body."

At this moment, Zhou Shaojin completely realized that the Soul-Retention Chain is his weapon as an impermanent, specifically used to deal with ghosts, but how much effect the Soul-Retention Chain can play depends entirely on the person using it. In short, it can be regarded as a weapon that changes with the user. It becomes stronger in the hands of the strong, and naturally weak in the hands of the weak.

After understanding, Zhou Shaojin felt even more confident. When he was an ordinary person, he could control the Soul-Retaining Chain when he was recruiting ghosts in the county town, so he could already deal with a ghost. Now he has officially embarked on the path of cultivation and has achieved a small foundation building. His strength is incomparable. He just controlled the Soul-Retaining Chain to deal with the two ghosts. According to the situation just now, he felt that if he controlled the Soul-Retaining Chain now, he should be able to deal with five ghosts with all his strength. Of course, it would be easier if he used the ghost-retaining Talisman.

“@#￥%#&%…^%%&%^*&…………………….”

Thoughts flew in his mind, but Zhou Shaojin's movements were not slow at all. After subduing the two ghosts with the Soul-Retention Chain, he immediately recited the Soul-Shipping Sutra and spit out the scriptures that he could not even hear clearly. However, it can be seen that after the passage of the scriptures, the two ghosts bound by the Soul-Retention Chain obviously calmed down.

The Soul-Shipping Sutra, the Dead's Dead's Souls!

"Ding Dong, Wuchang Zhou Shaojin, one ghost is saved, rewarding merit points: 4!"

"Ding Dong, Wuchang Zhou Shaojin, one ghost is saved, rewarding merit points: 5!"

Soon, the two ghosts turned into silver light and disappeared. Zhou Shaojin also took back the soul-detention chain. Two messages from the Impermanence Order came from his mind. Two ghosts, one gave him four merit points, and the other gave him five merit points, with a little more. The reward rules for the merit points in the Impermanence Order are completely judged based on the strength of the ghost. Just like he saved Zhou Guihua who had just died for the first time, only rewarded him with a little merit point. That was because Zhou Guihua was too weak. She didn't know whether she could survive forty-nine days to become a ghost.

After ordinary people die, most ghosts will automatically dissipate after seventy-nine days. Only a few ghosts can survive. However, even if they survive, they will only become ordinary ghosts, and their consciousness will be hazy. The memories of their lives will slowly disappear. They are called wandering souls. They float in the sun and cannot hurt people. Of course, it is still possible to scare people. However, even wandering souls still have strengths and weaknesses. Moreover, if they float in the sun for a long time, if they do not gradually become strong, they will slowly disappear. This world will be the world of ghosts.

Just like these two ghosts now belong to the ranks of wandering souls, that is, ordinary ghosts, but one rewarded him with four merit points and one rewarded him with five merit points, which was obviously stronger.

Ordinary ghosts are just like wandering souls. This kind of thing is a life-threatening thing, but there are also differences in strength and weakness. Just like the evil ghost I met in the county town last time, almost killed him, that is, the evil ghost, and the one in Wangjia Village, must be an evil ghost, but Zhou Shaojin is sure that the ghost in Wangjia Village is definitely stronger than the evil ghost in the county town, which is also the reason why he did not dare to take action last time and even had no idea about taking action.

Because he had a strong premonition at that time that if he took action, more than 90% of the ghost would be no match for that ghost. He would never do this behavior that was equivalent to seeking death unless he had a blacksmith in his head.

"Clang...Clang...Clang..."

The sound of chopsticks hitting the porcelain bowl echoed clearly on the top of the mountain, and everything had subsided. In fact, it was only about a minute before Zhou Shaojin solved the two ghosts from the beginning to the end. The chopsticks on his left hand hit the porcelain bowl without interruption, because the sound of chopsticks hitting the porcelain bowl is the key to this method of attacking ghosts. One is to attract ghosts by relying on this sound, and the other is that only when people constantly hit the porcelain bowl with chopsticks, ghosts will not pay attention to living people.

"here we go again."

After a few minutes, Zhou Shaojin's eyes narrowed. In his sight, a figure appeared on the ground and slowly crawled towards him. His whole head was pressed against the ground, his face could not be seen clearly, and his limbs were in a strange twisted shape. It was obvious that this was also a ghost, crawling towards him from the tombstone forest on the top of the mountain.

Zhou Shaojin made a decisive move, holding chopsticks in his left hand and continued to tap the porcelain bowl. Otherwise, the sound would stop, and the soul-retaining chain would be thrust out of his right hand, and flew over like a dragon to entangle the ghost.

"Ding Dong, Wuchang Zhou Shaojin, one ghost is saved, rewarding merit points: 4!"

"Ding Dong, Wuchang Zhou Shaojin, one ghost is saved, rewarding merit points: 5!"

"Ding Dong, Wuchang Zhou Shaojin, one ghost is saved, rewarding merit points: 8!"

"Ding Dong, Wuchang Zhou Shaojin, one ghost is saved, rewarding merit points: 7!"

“……………….”

Time passed, and I don’t know how long it had passed. The three incense sticks that had been lit before had been burned. Zhou Shaojin lit three incense sticks again, and now it has been burned most of them. However, the harvest also made Zhou Shaojin happy. He couldn’t calculate how many ghosts had been solved at this moment. One appeared almost every few minutes, and they were all ordinary ghosts. It was basically no difficulty for him now, and it could be solved easily.

Zhou Shaojin couldn't remember how many ghosts he had solved, nor did he know how many points he had earned now, so he didn't have time to see it, but I think it would be a shortage.

After about ten minutes, Zhou Shaojin found that the speed of ghosts was getting slower and less. Since he just caught the last ghost, no ghost has appeared for nearly twenty minutes. After looking at the three incense sticks that were lit, three quarters of it have burned.

"It's almost time. When these three incense sticks are burned tonight, it will be considered that the merit will be fulfilled."

He muttered in his heart and glanced at the burning incense. Zhou Shaojin thought while knocking on the porcelain bowl, and his eyes were alert to the surroundings.

It was late at night and the sound of people was silent. On the top of the mountain, the sound of chopsticks hitting the porcelain bowl and the night wind were mixed together and floating and melodiously.
