Chapter 263 Getting Opportunity
Chapter 263 Getting Opportunity
When Master Huo Tian arrived and explained his purpose, Gu Qingyin and Huo Yunjing looked at each other in silence.
I felt a little unhappy, but then I thought, if their positions were reversed, they might do something even more excessive.
Seeing that they were unhappy, Master Huo comforted them calmly, “If you want to study the formation quietly, it’s best not to confront the Tianshi Association. It will be very troublesome.”
Huo Yunjing lowered the corners of his lips, but did not say anything against it.
Gu Qingyin squeezed his slender fingers soothingly, then smiled and said to Master Huo Tian: “Thank you for your hard work.” She looked at Zhang Qiuyan again, “It’s all thanks to you today, let’s have a meal together.”
Zhang Qiuyan glanced at Master Huo Tianshi, pursed her lips, smiled and nodded.
Gu Qingyin hadn’t eaten mutton hotpot for a long time and was a little craving for it. After asking everyone for their opinions, she found an old-fashioned restaurant and went there.
It was not yet time for dinner, so there was no need to queue. The four of them asked for a small private room. Huo Yunjing naturally sat next to Gu Qingyin, and then it was Zhang Qiuyan, and Master Huo Tianshi sat next to her.
While waiting for the food to be served, Master Huo suddenly took out a few old-looking books and pushed them towards Gu Qingyin, “I heard that you want to improve the space-time formation. These formation diagrams may be helpful to you.”
Gu Qingyin thanked him in surprise, “Thank you for your trouble, Master Huo.”
Master Huo shook his head.
Gu Qingyin carefully put the book away, and then she remembered to ask Zhang Qiuyan, “Can we go to the association’s library to borrow books?”
She had originally planned to ask President Miao directly after the assessment, but she didn’t expect Huo Yunjing to cause such trouble. She was too embarrassed to speak and quickly took her people away.
Zhang Qiuyan immediately retracted her glance at Master Huo Tianshi and responded seriously: “You should know that no matter which force it is, the library is of utmost importance. There are restrictions on regular members entering, not to mention temporary ones.”
Gu Qingyin’s face fell, “Then our efforts are in vain.”
“Don’t be impatient, just listen to me first.” Zhang Qiuyan smiled, “No rules are absolute.”
Gu Qingyin’s eyes brightened a little.
“Over the years, there have been some mysterious places all over the country that cannot be solved. Solving one will give you a chance to enter the library.”
“Is it limited time?”
“Of course it’s limited in time. No one is allowed in the library at night.”
Gu Qingyin hissed, “I suspect your association is just taking the opportunity to capture young men. You don’t need to feel bad if they die.”
Zhang Qiuyan smiled without changing her expression, “There’s no need to be so blunt.”
“What do you think?” Gu Qingyin turned to look at Huo Yunjing, who had been silent.
Huo Yunjing didn’t take it seriously at all and said calmly: “Let’s solve it nearby.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a sneer was heard.
Huo Yunjing looked over, his eyes cold, “Is there a problem?”
Master Huo poured a cup of tea without even looking at the person, “You are quite arrogant.”
Although Zhang Qiuyan felt the same way, she couldn’t show it and could only nod in agreement in her heart.
Gu Qingyin couldn’t bear to see her family being looked down upon, so she said fairly and impartially: “Not really, he does have that ability.”
If we only target ghosts, no one can handle it better than Huo Yunjing, the Ghost King.
Huo Yunjing smiled silently.
Master Huo lowered his eyes and said, “That’s good.”
After the dishes were served, everyone ate in silence and no one spoke again.
After eating half full, Gu Qingyin sighed and broke the silence, “Is there any in Beijing?”
Zhang Qiuyan also lost her appetite due to the depressing atmosphere. She heaved a sigh of relief and nodded, “There is a famous haunted building in the old city. It’s not too dangerous, but it’s more troublesome to deal with. Therefore, it is sealed off. No Taoist priest is willing to take over.” Gu Qingyin raised an eyebrow, “How troublesome is it?”
“Hmm… that’s a bit much.”
At night, when Gu Qingyin and Huo Yunjing stood outside the haunted building, they realized how large the number was.
This building is abandoned, with only a frame built. From the outside, it looks like a standing coffin, stuck straight into the ground, as if waiting for a predestined ghost to move in.
The haunted building is fourteen meters wide, with the entrance right in the middle. There is no door, and it is pitch black, as if it can swallow up any light.
Gu Qingyin was stunned, “It’s incredible.”
The entire building was crowded with ghosts, but because of the restrictions outside the building, they could not get out and could only struggle in the limited space.
The whole building was like a packed can.
Huo Yunjing also felt a little shocked. He had only seen this scene in hell.
“Do we really not need help from others?” Zhang Qiuyan was a little worried.
Gu Qingyin was also unsure, and she looked at Huo Yunjing inquiringly.
Huo Yunjing walked calmly into the building, “No need.” But he stopped after two steps and turned to look at Gu Qingyin, “How about you wait for me outside? It’s a bit dirty in there.”
Gu Qingyin rolled her eyes immediately and strode past him, “Who are you looking down on?” Although she no longer had her magic weapon and Yin-Yang eyes, and her body was a little weak, her spells and talismans were not vegetarian.
Huo Yunjing laughed and followed.
Seeing this, Master Huo followed the two of them silently. Since he was in charge of supervision, he naturally could not let go of a situation that could easily lead to chaos.
As soon as you step into the building, you can feel the obvious temperature difference, as if you have stepped from midsummer into late autumn without any transition at all.
“Wait a moment, let me clear it first.” Huo Yunjing protected Gu Qingyin behind him, and after a snap of his fingers, the area within two meters was cleared instantly.
Master Huo’s eyebrows jumped when he saw this. What kind of method is this? It’s too light.
Gu Qingyin exclaimed, “Amazing.”
Huo Yunjing was not very satisfied. After all, he was just wearing a physical shell and could not exert 100% of his strength as a soul.
“Would you like to compete?” Gu Qingyin suddenly became interested. “You and I will take one side each and see who can clean up faster.”
Huo Yunjing’s mind moved, “What is the reward for the winner?”
Gu Qingyin blinked, and now thought it was too late, so she casually said, “The winner can ask the loser to do one thing.” After a pause, she added, “Don’t go too far.”
Huo Yunjing laughed and nodded, “Okay, it’s a deal.”
The couple high-fived each other as an oath, then turned and walked away.
Huo Yunjing was still playing it down. In comparison, Gu Qingyin was much more active. She used thunder spells, talismans and salvation talismans at the same time. It was obvious that she wanted to win very much.
Gradually, the two separated.
Master Huo Tianshi glanced at Gu Qingyin, then followed Huo Yunjing with a frown.
After watching from a close distance for a long time, Master Huo Tian could also see some of Huo Yunjing’s methods. It seemed to be soul power? But is it really okay to use soul power without restraint like this?
Master Huo was puzzled. Although he was born with soul power far superior to that of ordinary people, he couldn’t help squandering it. Or was it related to his upbringing? What extraordinary opportunities had he had?
Huo Yunjing clicked his tongue and said, “Master Huo, I don’t like people other than my wife staring at me.”
Master Huo Tian came back to his senses, his expression became even more indifferent, “I came here just to keep an eye on you.”
Huo Yunjing hummed a noncommittal “huh” and continued to clean up the ghosts.
