Chapter 223 Fei Bai Dan

"Of course there is, but if you want to wait until Qing Si sends someone down to handle it, you'll be waiting for a long time. Don't tell me you don't know how remote your Black Green Mountain Range is, practically a backwater. There aren't many people in Qing Si willing to do things that don't involve money, and it might take them years to send someone down."

Ni Dongmei's voice was slightly mocking, as if she had a lot of opinions about Qing Si.

Fang Yue's heart sank.

If what Ni Dongmei said was true, and the phenomenon of a village being surrounded by a large number of yangxu ghosts appeared, his situation would definitely not be optimistic. Who knows how long the Mo Village's formation can last.

"Then what should I do? Releasing the ghost curse will arouse the attention of the yangxu ghost group and trigger a village siege. If I don't release the ghost curse, those yangxu ghosts will wander around the village..."

Fang Yue even thought about whether to abandon the escort team from Gu Yue Village, timing it so that before the ghost curse was released and attracted the attention of the yangxu ghost group, he would leave Mo Village first to avoid being trapped and killed there.

But the danger of the wilderness meant that this method was not reliable.

The situation seemed to have fallen into a troublesome state.

These past few days had been too comfortable, so comfortable that Fang Yue had forgotten that this was a dangerous and bizarre world where people could die if they weren't careful!

"What to do? Naturally, use my prescription to refine a pill to solve the problem."

"Use your pill? But didn't you say that dispelling the ghost curse is useless… wait, are you trying to fool me?" Fang Yue suspiciously stared at Ni Dongmei, but the latter coldly smiled.

"Fool you? Are you worth me going to such lengths? Believe it or not, it's none of my business if the village is surrounded by ghosts, or even destroyed."

"…Then what's so special about this *Fei Bai Dan*?"

"Naturally, there is. If I'm going to help you solve the problem, it will be a fundamental solution. This pill doesn't simply dispel your ghost curse; it absorbs it and preserves it in the pill for a certain amount of time.

Put the Fei Bai Dan that has absorbed the ghost curse in the village, so that the yangxu ghosts will still think you are in Mo Village. You need to leave the village, find the intelligent entity in the yangxu ghost group, kill it, and then destroy the Fei Bai Dan, and the problem will be completely solved."

"Okay, so troublesome…"

"It's only troublesome for you, not for me. Little guy, you better remember, don't underestimate any kind of ghost curse. This is my advice to you."

Fang Yue sighed. He didn't expect things to turn out this way.

He had never even thought about leaving the village to kill that intelligent entity.

"What's the approximate strength of the yangxu ghost's intelligent entity?"

"Who knows? But the yangxu ghosts are only Black-rank Initial stage, so their *gui zhi* (ghost knowledge), is probably only Black-rank Intermediate stage."

Black-rank Intermediate stage?

Fang Yue, who had been a little worried, immediately calmed down.

He had encountered quite a few Black-rank Intermediate stages, and now that his strength had improved, it would probably be even easier to deal with.

As for *gui zhi*, it was simply a term similar to "seer" in a ghost group, and also a title for a certain "intelligent entity" that was born in the group.

"Hurry up and prepare the Fei Bai Dan, deal with the ghost curse on your body, and then kill their *gui zhi*, and notify me with the meatball I gave you. I will destroy the Fei Bai Dan that you left in Mo Village. Without a *gui zhi*, the yangxu ghosts will naturally disperse. Then, you help me find the tail and complete what I asked you to do."

"Alright."

Ni Dongmei had already said so much, so Fang Yue naturally wouldn't be unappreciative.

After taking his leave, he hurried to the medical clinic.

"Team Leader Ye, you're back just in time. The Blood Hunter said he has something to discuss with you and asked you to go see him as soon as you return..."

A guard team member who was responsible for staying behind hurriedly said when he saw Fang Yue.

But Fang Yue only said, 'I'll go see him later,' and rushed to Doctor An's room.

At this time, Doctor An had already arrived at the medical clinic to treat the injured.

Fang Yue had learned this from the young doctor earlier, who said that Doctor An would also come over.

After all, this was not a small matter. With such a large number of casualties among the hunters who went out, coupled with the previous death of Team Leader Huo, some villagers in Mo Village were inevitably panicking and needed a big shot like Doctor An to come out and calm people's hearts.

Entering Doctor An's room, he saw that he was treating a patient with a severely injured leg.

"Ye Ye? Is something urgent?"

Doctor An looked up in astonishment. If he didn't have a good relationship with Fang Yue, he would have had people drag the intruder out and beat him to death for such an act of rushing into the room.

"You go ahead with your work, I'll wait at the door."

After hesitating for a moment, Fang Yue retreated.

After waiting for a while, the door to Doctor An's room opened, and the apprentices immediately went in to carry the patient away, leaving only Doctor An in the room.

Fang Yue entered the room, closed the door, and immediately asked Doctor An if the phenomenon of a ghost siege would occur after his ghost curse was dispelled, as Ni Dongmei had said.

"*Gui zhi*… That is indeed a bit tricky. If it's a *gui zhi*, and it really won't rest until you're dead, then a village siege is almost inevitable. But, it doesn't make sense. How could your ghost curse cause such a strong reaction? If you think about it, it's probably just an enhanced version of the ghost curses that I and the Blood Hunter had before."

"Then… do you think this group of yangxu ghosts isn't coming for me?"

"I don't know."

Doctor An spread his hands.

"I'm a doctor, not a master who studies ghosts. How would I know what ghosts do?"

"Moreover, the existence of a *gui zhi* is the most troublesome. Ghosts are already powerful, but most of them are not very intelligent and have a single mode of action, similar to insects and wild animals, only more ferocious and terrifying."

"But a *gui zhi* is a being with intelligence. The actions of such beings are unpredictable."

"If you're willing to gamble, then wait in Mo Village for the ghost curse to end and see the reaction of the yangxu ghost group. If the village is really surrounded by ghosts, the village's formation can also withstand it for a while, but as for when reinforcements will arrive, it's just as that Lord said, completely up to luck."

After a pause, he said nervously, "Speaking of which, that guy isn't looking for trouble with me, right? Did she mention me or the An family?"

"No, not a word. And I feel like her mind is all on the wilderness, so she shouldn't be here because of what you did to kill the Ice Sect elder back then."

"Cured to death! What do you mean by kill? Don't talk nonsense!"

Doctor An stubbornly wanted Fang Yue to change his words, then patted his chest and said, "That's good, that's good. What are you planning to do now?"

"I…"

Fang Yue hesitated for a moment, but after thinking for a while, he raised his head and said, "I'll try her method."

"But we don't have *ruoming niao* (literally: as if understanding bird) and *chenhui bu* (literally: sinking ash cloth) in Mo Village. These kinds of things aren't rare treasures to a sect elder like her. But for a remote and poor place like ours, they're practically treasures."
