Chapter 867 - 821: Little Ancestor Gua Shao (3)
"Don't understand!"
Gua Shao shook his head and said: "When I was researching this dharma method, I was thinking about not letting others break it."
Er Guotou was momentarily speechless: "Then you..."
"I can upgrade it for them again!"
Gua Shao gritted his teeth, with a cold smile on his face, looking towards the Menghu Pass behind the misty black qi, he said: "My dharma method has been constantly upgrading, their version, in my opinion, is already outdated."
"Since they dare to show off in front of me, I have to let them see that my little ancestor's reputation is not something to take lightly!"
"This..."
Seeing Gua Shao getting angry, Er Guotou was somewhat overwhelmed. Logically, hearing that there is a way to break this human head formation should be a good thing.
But why does it feel a bit unsettling?
"Being able to break their formation is a good thing, but how do you plan to break this human head formation?"
At this moment, elsewhere, Hu Ma and Calculation, who had just observed the human head formation, also walked over. Having overheard the conversation between Er Guotou and Gua Shao, they smiled and asked a question.
If it were someone else, Hu Ma would have asked whether the method was ruthless enough, but since it was Gua Shao, there was no need to ask.
Anyway, he was ready to make a move, just following behind her.
"Let the dead turn around."
Gua Shao, seeing Hu Ma coming over to ask, immediately puffed up his chest proudly and said: "Resentful souls have debts, grievances have owners. Since they've cultivated a hundred thousand resentful souls, let them experience what it's like to be entangled by a hundred thousand resentful souls!"
Hu Ma and Er Guotou listened, and in terms of cultivation, they were actually much higher than Gua Shao, but firstly, they did not belong to the Xinghun Sect, and secondly, Gua Shao's little mind always came up with ideas that others couldn't fathom.
They vaguely understood at this moment, but not entirely clearly, so they tentatively asked: "So specifically..."
Gua Shao was very happy with the admiration from these two seniors, and said proudly: "Call me 500 Cloth Soldiers, and I'll show you!"
It was a time when everything inside and outside Menghu Pass was silent, and the separation of the human head formation made both sides either anxious or nervous, but they could only endure it, have a good sleep, and wait till morning to speak again.
Unexpectedly, suddenly there was the sound of gongs being hit, chaotic, which immediately roused the garrison leaders on Menghu Pass.
Looking up, they saw the white shadows shaking vaguely behind the black human head formation, and white flags fluttering back and forth, which immediately caused panic: "Is someone breaking the formation?"
"It's midnight now. If they really have capable people, why not wait until daytime? Why must they come over during the most fierce and violent time of the head formation?"
"..."
On the Food Protection Army side, there was unexpectedly great joy. All three army leaders, hearing that someone was breaking the formation, hurried over with their personal guards, watching from afar as Gua Shao led 500 Cloth Soldiers to the front of the human head formation.
The Cloth Army she led was originally dressed in white linen, extremely conspicuous in the firelight of the night, ghost-like and captivating.
Hu Ma didn't know why she trained these Cloth Soldiers, but Calculation, having the most experience, explained in a low voice: "Wearing mourning clothes to welcome ghosts."
"Living people and ghosts clash, but wearing white linen means they do not suppress ghostly gods; they can come and go freely. Her 500 Cloth Soldiers, wearing white linen and waving white flags, do not seem to use abnormal magic, but rather seem specially for guiding vindictive souls..."
"..."
Focused on, they saw that the 500 Cloth Soldiers had arrived, yet were stationed still, while Gua Shao, going through the motions, called forth three paper men in front of the human head formation.
They were the same three paper men she had bought in Shangjing City to accumulate life, her most powerful treasures, that were now being used to set up an incense table before the formation, worshiping heaven and earth, and then with a vermillion pen, drew the eyebrows and opened the eyes for the three paper men.
"Swoosh!"
These three paper men were already formidable, and now have opened their eyes, appearing all the more unsettling and eerie in the night.
"Vindictive ghosts avenging, requiring the human body!"
Having finished drawing the eyes, Gua Shao took a step back, personally picked up a drumstick, and slowly began to knock, chanting: "I give you these paper men, so you may have bodies to rely on, I give you these white flags, so you may clearly see the road in the human world."
"Seek revenge for grievances, repay debts old and new, no need to thank me, just say a few good words for me when you're in the underworld..."
"..."
As her words fell, the drumbeats suddenly intensified.
The three paper men suddenly clattered noisily, flying high into the air, drifting straight into the human head formation, vaguely resembling three celestial figures dressed in white descending from above.
And closely following the three paper men, the Cloth Army raised their white flags, like hundreds of white snakes in the dark of night, fluttering, rushing into the human head formation.
Boom!
Rolling yin qi suddenly rose, the human head formation was filled with endless resentful winds and killing aura, all coming together towards the three paper men, making the three paper men appear increasingly heavy, withered on the surface.
Yet, the three paper men, though appearing weightless, surprisingly held up.
Within the human head formation, countless gazes, wooden and blank, looked at anyone rushing in from the front, but with the three paper men blocking in front, this gaze could not harm the Cloth Army behind, and instead gradually turned with the white banners held by the Cloth Army.
Bit by bit, as the Cloth Army crossed the human head formation, these countless gazes also gradually began to turn, slowly, from looking towards the front of the pass, to watching the direction of Menghu Pass.
"Oh no, someone has broken the formation!"
And on Menghu Pass, when seeing those white flags rolling and surging over, the garrison commander on the city wall was instantly terrified, no longer caring about anything else, desperately beating the gongs, chaotically waking up the troops inside the pass who had just recently laid down.
"Hahaha..."
And amidst the sound of the gongs, outside the human head formation, Gua Shao's laughter was crisp and overbearing: "Old fools of Quzhou, listen to me!"
"Your little ancestor is back!"
