Chapter Seventy-Three: Killing the Corpses
Suddenly, the fog outside the window poured in, and he couldn't help but look around, but he couldn't see anything.
His divine sense could not detect the world outside the window, and his perception was greatly restricted, and the foggy world outside was like a dead and terrifying world, full of terrifying things.
At this moment, there was a sharp knock on the door, and the whole house shook, and the dust fell from the beams.
Li Jihuang's expression froze, his big hand grabbed the handle of the knife, and he just wanted to kick open the door to see what was going on. But at this time, he remembered the words of the old village chief, and he did not act rashly when he was vigilant, but was prepared, if something dared to break in, he would kill it with a knife!
After dozens of breaths, the knock on the door ended, and he did not let his guard down, but became more vigilant in his heart.
For a long time, there was no movement at all, and the previous dead silence atmosphere was restored, Li Jihuang couldn't help but relax, and when he looked back, the whole person was shocked in place.
When did she disappear?
Li Jihuang was a little angry, he didn't expect that there would be monsters who dared to snatch people around him, and he didn't even find out at all!
Thinking of this, he kicked the door away, but found that the world outside the house was full of fog, and there seemed to be something terrifying hidden in the hazy fog, and from time to time there was a ghost crying wolf howl, which was extremely terrifying!
"Pretending to be a ghost!"
Li Jihuang sneered, and slapped his big hand into a majestic palm, shaking away the fog all the way, but he saw a lot of ghost talismans, he couldn't help trotting over and picking them up, and said suspiciously: "Chen Ziqi's things?"
He remembered that this Chen Ziqi looked as big as him, but his personality was like a child, and he didn't forget to sleep with the big bags of things when he slept, as if he was some kind of treasure, and now these scattered yellow charms must be left by Chen Ziqi!
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but step into the mist quickly, looking for the traces of the yellow rune, but suddenly he was stunned.
He felt that there were a lot of things crawling on his body, and some were gnawing on his robe, skin and flesh, but he was not bitten through his flesh.
In a fit of rage, he remembered the spell of the Void Eye, and couldn't help but turn on it with all his might, and glanced away angrily, only to see many broken ghosts crawling on his body, gnawing at him fiercely.
He sneered, and suddenly slashed out, killing countless ghosts.
"It's you ghosts who do evil!"
Li Jihuang glanced around, and found that there were many ghosts in the fog, some were moving forward in confusion, some were stealing villagers' things, and some were knocking on the door, he looked slightly angry, and swung countless knives to kill countless ghosts on the street, and many ghosts were killed and fled in a hurry!
"Help...... Help!"
Suddenly, he heard a woman's coquettish shouting, accompanied by a thudding sound, as if someone had fallen into the water. If it weren't for his amazing ear power and the fact that he had dispersed a lot of fog, he really wouldn't have heard this subtle sound.
"Chen Ziqi?"
Li Jihuang's expression froze, and he couldn't help running towards the source of the sound, but he saw an ancient well, in the ancient well, Chen Ziqi was struggling frantically in the water, as if something was pulling her below.
Seeing this scene, Li Jihuang couldn't help jumping down, but before he jumped into the bottom of the well, a whirlpool appeared in the water and swept Chen Ziqi into it, when he entered the bottom of the well, the water in the well had disappeared, he stepped on the dry ground, and there was nothing in the well!
Stepping on the bottom of the dry well, Li Jihuang's face was a little ugly, and suddenly he felt a wind passing over, looked up suddenly, and found a wisp of red clothes floating by, and couldn't help shouting: "Who!"
"Demon, don't try to escape!"
He took a deep breath, took the broken knife in his hand, and rushed out, but didn't look at anything.
A wisp of red clothes floated by, and the ghostly figure swept behind him, and he swung his knife and slashed, but he couldn't cut it, only to see a red-clothed figure quickly disappear into the mist.
The young man shouted angrily, and the next moment, his big hand turned into a big palm, grabbed into the mist, and dispersed a lot of mist, but the red-clothed ghost disappeared.
He took a deep breath, he chased for hundreds of meters, chasing and chasing, and finally he couldn't even see the shadow of the other party.
"Escaped?"
Li Jihuang's face was ugly, he returned to the ancient well, staring blankly at the dry land, how much he hoped that Chen Ziqi would appear from the ancient well.
But after waiting for a while, the fog was about to dissipate, and the people still did not come out.
"No, I have to look outside the village, maybe it's a ghost from the river god of the Tongshen River!"
Li Jihuang muttered a few words, clenched the broken knife, and walked outside the village, the next moment he frowned and stared ahead.
Not far from him, the entire village of villagers appeared not far in front of him, looking at him angrily.
"Xianjia, didn't you tell you that you can't go out at night, why don't you listen?"
The village chief sighed, and a group of villagers behind him looked at him with a little hideous eyes, but did not speak.
"Oh, it's okay, I'm stuffy in the house, come out and breathe. ”
Seeing that at night, the village chief led a group of villagers on the street, blocking his way, he had some doubts in his heart.
Don't these people sleep? Don't they say they can't go out at night? Why do the whole village go out to walk the streets in the middle of the night?
"It's not safe outside, I'm patrolling with the villagers, so go back if you're okay." ”
The village chief said with a smile, and wanted Li Jihuang to return to the house in a few words.
This time, Li Jihuang was even more confused. The village chief is so old, and he still comes out to patrol? Not to mention what kind of patrol in the middle of the night is the third watch?
"Village chief, have you seen my friend? ”
Seeing that the village chief was puzzled, Li Jihuang hurriedly gestured: "It's the young man who has a big bag on his body and claims to be a demon subduer, he is gone." ”
"What kind of demon slayer young man, we have never had it here!"
The village chief was even more puzzled: "You can't be mistaken, right? You came to our village alone yesterday afternoon, where is there anyone else!"
"Yes, yes, our village is so remote, few people come on weekdays, if there are strangers in the village, we will definitely find out!"
"The immortal master must have remembered wrong, right?"
"yes, there is no such person at all. ”
“......”
The villagers behind the village chief also hurriedly denied it, which made Li Jihuang feel puzzled, he hurriedly visited the storage ring, but found that the ghost talisman was still lying quietly.
For a while, Li Jihuang's face sank a little, he knew that this group of villagers was strange, and he couldn't help but open his vain eyes, and he was shocked for a while!
Some of the corpses were covered with insects crawling, some were hanging on them and gnawing on them, and some were dragging rotten meat on the ground, looking at him with bright eyes!
Suddenly, he remembered that there were no people in this place for thousands of miles, and even the monks of the Penghao Sect did not inspect this place, so how could there be any villagers? Even if there were, it was hundreds of thousands of years ago, right? When he came before, he encountered many ancient cities and other places on the road, but most of them were dilapidated and old, overgrown with moss and weeds, and there were no people.
His gaze swept around slightly, and the original scene changed inexplicably!
The surrounding houses have become dilapidated, they are all overgrown with weeds, coffins are scattered on the ground, large and small graves in the distance have formed straw stacks, and the cold wind blows from time to time, and you can still see the tattered before!
This...... It's a dead house, a village!
He took a deep breath, and suddenly remembered that neither he nor Chen Ziqi had eaten each other's things, so he was slightly relieved!
Thinking about it, Li Jihuang laughed self-deprecatingly.
He is still inflated, since the smooth sailing, his mentality has changed a little, he has come out to experience, and he is still so careless, thinking that no one can harm him?
If it weren't for the fact that this group of corpse demons was just a cultivator of the Qi Realm, they would have killed him a long time ago, right?
"The immortal master must have misremembered, let's go back quickly, the village is not safe at night. ”
The village chief said earnestly.
"Hehe, you better get out of the way, I'm here to kill demons this time, you don't have to worry about me so much!"
Li Ji said with a grin, a trace of coldness appeared in his eyes, his mentality had changed, and now he had regained the sharpness of his training.
Heaven and earth have aura, and plants and trees can swallow the essence of the sun and the moon to become essence, not to mention this group of corpses with deep resentment.
This group of people must have been victimized by the river demon not far away, eroded by the residual demonic energy, and with their resentment, they became the corpses of people and ghosts, repeating the old scene.
"What is the Immortal Master doing?"
The village chief was puzzled and asked aloud.
"Hehe, get out of the way, otherwise don't blame me for being rude!"
If Li Jihuang hadn't found out that there was not a lot of blood on this group of corpses, and he hadn't harmed many people, he would definitely have taken action to extinguish the corpses of this group of people.
"Immortal Master, this is the third day of the second lunar month, the time when the river god's mana is at its most vigorous, if you go this time, there will definitely be no return!"
Seeing that he couldn't hide it, the village chief sighed heavily and slowly walked towards him: "We were killed by the river god, and we became the other party's minions, you have a chance to escape, don't fall into the tiger's mouth!"
For a while, the surrounding environment changed, the streets were full of dilapidated houses, crawling with rats, the yin wind was constantly coming, and the surrounding ghost fires were rising, which looked very weird.
"Hehe, where's my friend?"
Seeing them approaching, Li Jihuang's eyes were cold, and his big hand clenched the broken knife.
"Eat him! Eat his flesh, and we will be reincarnated!"
Suddenly, the village chief shouted angrily, turned into a terrible corpse, and rushed over with a group of corpses behind him, with teeth and claws, as if to tear him apart!
"Kill!"
Suddenly, Li Jihuang slashed out, and the terrifying sword aura was mixed with the momentum of the landslide and the ground cracked, and a majestic white blade blasted away.
Rumble......
Countless houses collapsed around him, and a corpse broke in two, screaming and crawling towards him.
"Demons are demons, I thought you didn't want to harm people, but I never thought that there was no one to harm, not that you didn't want to hurt people, if you don't destroy you, you will also harm other innocent people in the future!"
Li Jihuang sneered, and slapped his monstrous palm, shaking the mountains for a while, countless corpses turned into a piece of flesh, and he waved a sea of fire and burned the place.
"Ahh
A terrifying scream came out from the bones, and a trace of black gas spread in the fire, and when the last cluster of flames was extinguished, Li Jihuang put away the broken knife and slowly walked towards the Tongshen River!
Tonight, he's going to fight the river and the river god!
