After listening to my story about my experiences along the way, Daochang Chen looked at me approvingly: "You are very talented. I originally thought you couldn't do it. But now it seems that with your talents,

We have hope of defeating the mastermind behind this."

After saying that, he waved his hand and took me to the guest room of the village chief's house.

At this time, my father was lying on the bed in the guest room, with his eyes closed and his face pale.

Daochang Chen had already decorated the guest room before I came back. He had drawn a magic circle with red cinnabar around it and put paper symbols in several important locations.

Right in front of my father is a small bronze tripod.

I saw Taoist Master Chen stepping forward, placing the human cocoon in the cauldron, and then walked a few steps according to the steps, muttering something in his mouth.

"Snapped."

At the last step, the human chrysalis suddenly began to shake, and the lines on its body began to emit an even stronger white light than before.

Daochang Chen did not stop, but continued to repeat the previous steps, his steps and the curses in his mouth were even faster than before.

The doll continued to tremble and glow, as if it was scared.

Just when the white light was so dazzling that I almost couldn't open my eyes, I heard Daochang Chen shouting: "Soul Binding, open!"

Suddenly, there was a great burst of light, and three rays of light emerged from the human chrysalis and slowly floated into my father's seven orifices.

I watched with wide eyes, full of surprise.

After a while, the light dissipated, and the man no longer trembled and became calm.

"Cough...cough, don't come over! I..." My father's yell pulled me back from my surprise.

My dad looked at the situation in front of him and obviously didn't react. He was stunned for a while before he recovered: "Am I... saved?"

Chen Daochang flicked his sleeves and stepped forward: "Yes, you were soul-controlled by someone before, so what you saw were all illusion mirrors created by him."

When my father saw Daozhang Chen, his expression suddenly became respectful. He stood up, cupped his fists and said, "Daozhang Chen, you are here. I have heard of you for a long time..."

Daochang Chen nodded and gently supported him: "You don't have to be so polite."

My dad stood up. His movements were still a little stiff, and he obviously hadn't fully recovered yet: "Did you save me, Master Chen? Thank you very much."

Daochang Chen waved his hand: "You don't need to thank me. If you want to thank me, just thank your son. He worked hard to save you."

My dad looked at me with surprise on his face: "You mean Xiaozhi?"

"He is very talented, maybe a rare genius."

I was looking a little puzzled and couldn't help but interject: "Dad, do you know Daozhang Chen?"

My father gave me a complicated look: "Of course...I won't hide it from you now. In order to keep you alive, I also learned some Taoism, so I know some things about the monastic world."

"Daozhang Chen was a real master back then. Many people would have a hard time meeting him, let alone being saved by him."

I looked at Daozhang Chen in surprise: "Taoist Master, you are so powerful!"

When Daochang Chen listened to my father talking about those honors, his face looked as if it had nothing to do with him. Instead, he smiled when I said something in surprise.

He waved his hand: "It was all a false name in the past. No need to mention it. Now I am just an ordinary monk with no moral practice. I won't talk about it now. The most important thing now is to release the soul from the chrysalis.

"

My father repeatedly said yes, and immediately helped Daoist Chen carry the bronze tripod and walked out the door.

According to what dad said, Daochang Chen is so powerful, so if I was praised by him, does that mean that I am also pretty powerful?

Thinking of this, I felt a little proud.

We happily followed my father's footsteps, but as soon as we reached the door, the Taoist priest raised his hand to stop us.

"Someone is coming, a very strong evil spirit! You all be careful!" Daochang Chen said in a low voice.

After hearing this, my father immediately got into position and pulled me behind him, blocking me in front of me.

Only then did I realize that the thick fog had spread to the door.

"Sure enough, we are still in this village." A hoarse voice came from the fog, sounding particularly old.

The expression on Daochang Chen's face suddenly changed, and he began to twist his hands.

"Whoa!"

In an instant, a bloody figure flashed out of the mist and clawed at Daozhang Chen.

Daochang Chen dodged and avoided the blow.

The bluestone floor tiles that were hit broke.

Only then did I see clearly that the person who was rushing towards us was actually a translucent woman. She was wearing blood-red clothes and had long hair covering her face. She was completely the standard outfit of those evil ghosts in ghost stories!

"It's you! Tian Bin!" Chen Daochang's veins popped out and his face looked very bad.

A man stepped out of the fog. Although he had white hair, his face was very young and he looked like he was only in his 20s.

"What a coincidence that I meet you here, Senior Brother Chen."

He said this, but the look on his face was obviously very contemptuous.

Daochang Chen cursed loudly: "It's you who did it! You are no longer a disciple of our sect after you defected from the sect. Don't call me senior brother!"

Tian Bin, however, looked tepid: "Hahaha, you are really out of touch. Senior brother, you are too rigid. You have been tricked by that bullshit sect and now you have completely lost your moral integrity, and you still speak for them."

"Even if you lose all your virtues, it's still better than your crooked ways!" After speaking, Taoist Master Chen struck at Tian Bin with an air blade.

Tian Bin raised his hand slightly, and the fierce ghost walked in front of him and easily blocked his blow.

"Senior brother... you are really pathetic like this." After Tian Bin finished speaking, he also twisted his hand with a sword.

In an instant, countless corpses poured out from behind him.

I discovered the faces that were chasing me before, and sighed in my heart: "Sure enough, someone is behind this!"

Seeing this, Daochang Chen's expression became worse and worse, and he whispered to my father: "Get ready and prepare to fight!"

My dad nodded, with a serious look on his face. He picked up the charm that Master Chen had given him before and began to mutter something.

The cold air from the door rushed to us, and I heard the creaking of bones outside the door, and

Some scary screams sounded from time to time.

I became frightened and tightened my grip on the shovel I had been holding during the day.

"Hand over the human chrysalis!" Tian Bin shouted, and the corpses behind him immediately rushed towards us.

Tian Bin obviously didn't take us seriously. After summoning the corpses, he stopped moving and just stood aside as if watching a show.

Although Daochang Chen was young, he did not slack off at all. He easily dealt with the several dirty things in front of him, and even had some energy left to help his father.

It didn't take long for the battle to move from the village chief's home to the outside, where Daochang Chen led my father and me to fight our way out alive.

Seeing that we were about to walk all the way to Tian Bin, he obviously couldn't stand it.
