Chapter 53: Winter Slaughter (Asking for Recommendation Votes)
The snow was so great that the Bone Forest Swamp had turned into a vast snowfield.
Two black dots were galloping on the snowfield, and Xia Mu carried the ladder clouds, his body was like electricity, leaving Wei Wei far behind.
Wei Wei looked at the back in front of him, as well as the snow surface on the ground without a trace, and couldn't help but curse a pervert. Obviously, I didn't have as much light work as I did before.
In winter, most of the monsters hid, and the sunshine on Xia Mu's body was as bright as a bonfire in the night, and the evil creatures and ghosts along the way were hidden.
Natsuki was only thinking about fast words, and the sudden snowfall completely disrupted his thoughts, and the faint uneasiness that lingered in his heart made him a little manic. Will something happen at home? Could it be that the demon python's Taoism has improved again? Otherwise, how could this year's snow come so early?
In the midst of the confusion in his mind, a piercing cry suddenly came from overhead.
"Ga ......"
Xia Mu listened to Xianle.
"Devil! Over here! ”
Even if Natsuki didn't speak, the ghost owl above his head had already seen him, although it was night, but in the eyes of the ghost owl, it was no different from daytime, and even in the dark, he could see more clearly.
Owls fall from the sky...... pounced on Wei Wei.
"Ha, Brother Xia, your bird is so polite, he even knows that I will be the guest first, you have to reflect seriously, you don't even wait for me to ...... at all"
"Wait! That's my companion. Xia Mu screamed violently, with a hint of the power of a lion's roar in his voice.
The ghost owl's claws were only a few meters away from Wei Wei's head. Hearing Natsuki's roar, the ghost owl staggered away and landed on the snow.
Wei Wei walked away from the ghost gate, and broke out in a cold sweat.
"Xia Xia Xia ...... Brother, does this ghost eat human flesh? He really wanted to hunt me just now. ”
Natsuki went up to appease the ghost owl, and then 'pretended' to take out a few pieces of meat from his bag and threw them at it. After doing this, he explained to Wei Wei, "This year's snow came too early, the animals were hiding, but he didn't have time to store food. ”
"Food? Am I that definition? And isn't this ghost owl raised by you, Brother Wei? Do you want him to prepare his own food? Wei Wei was very dissatisfied in his heart, he was almost scared to pee.
"Who told you that I raised him, I just saved him once by chance."
This one...... It seems like I guessed it myself.
"Don't be stunned there, I'm going to rush back as soon as possible, just in time for the ghost owl to give us a ride."
"This ...... May I? ”
The ghost owl jumped to his feet, grabbed Xia Mu and Wei Wei with his two paws, and made him swallow back the last word.
After a while, a bright light appeared in sight.
The town of Bayou is just below.
The scent of the linden tree in the town instinctively made the ghost owl feel uncomfortable, and he placed the two of them by the river, screamed, and flapped his wings and left.
Xiao Lianshui, who heard the movement, walked out of the boat.
"Thank goodness you're back, my lord. If you don't come back, I'm going to look for you in the swamp. ”
"I'm fine." Wei Wei regained his cold appearance in front of outsiders.
Xia Mu was anxious about his family, and without even saying goodbye, he ran directly to the town with light skills. Xiao Lianshui only felt that the black light flashed in front of him, and the figure disappeared.
"The man just now...... Is it Natsuki's little brother? What a handsome light work. ”
"That's right, it's him."
"This heavy snow is coming strangely, we are not prepared to wait any longer, and we will leave after the snow stops."
"Ship Master Xiao, please take care of yourself, I have to stay here for a while."
Xiao Lianshui looked embarrassed, he didn't dare to ask why, so he had to persuade: "I received a commission from the Wei family master to send you here, if I go back by myself, I will leave you here, in the Wei family's master, I'm afraid it will be difficult to be worse, you should go back with me." ”
"I'll send a letter to my father, you can bring it back for me, and I won't stay long, and when it's over, I'll go home, huh...... Will go back before the Chinese New Year. ”
"But this place is remote, how do you go back?"
"After a while, the Mo family's grain store will come to deliver food, and I will go back with them when the time comes."
Wei Wei made all the arrangements clear, and Xiao Lianshui finally couldn't persuade him. Just let him be.
Wei Wei stared at the town for a while, and then suddenly asked, "What's going on in the town?" Why is it so quiet? Not even a dog barking? ”
"I was on the boat just now, and I heard a sentence in a daze, like a village attacked by a large group of winter ghosts."
"Winter ghosts? Not good! Wei Wei remembered the characteristics of the winter ghost and hurriedly ran to the town.
……
Xia Xiaocao didn't fall asleep at all, her father blocked her ears, but the voice still came into his ears, and finally the fear accumulated to the extreme.
"Dad, I'm afraid!"
The daughter curled up in her father's arms like a frightened little beast and shivered.
Xia Shi gritted his teeth and pulled out the dagger behind the pillow, which he used for his own use, but since he had a long talk with his son, this dagger was put aside by him, and now it seems that he has a more suitable use.
……
Xia Mu ran to the door of his house, only to see Lao Huang lying in a pool of blood, and an ape-like monster was walking into his house with a dog's leg in one hand. At the same time a scream came from inside the house.
The next moment, Natsuki rushed into the room with the ladder cloud that had been added to the full level. Immediately after, a powerful King Kong palm full of anger slapped at the monster.
When the palm was about to fall on the monster's head, the other party seemed to sense that death was coming, and the body disintegrated on its own, turning into a cloud of broken ice, allowing Natsuki to fall into the air with one palm, but at the same time, a cold aura on the climbing Natsuki arm, turned into an ape again, and bit Natsuki's neck.
However, as soon as it moved, a furry head emerged from under Natsuki's chest, and a purple light shot out of its eyes, freezing the ape in place.
"Brother!"
"Mu'er ......"
"Father, Xiaocao, don't come here yet."
Natsuki shook off an identification technique and saw the ape's information.
[Winter Ghost: A ghost born from the killing aura of heaven and earth, evaluation level: D]
This ape's peculiar ability to gather and disperse its body startled him, but fortunately, the ability of the white sable is still applicable to this kind of ghost thing, and looking at the salivating appearance of the white sable, it seems to be a rare delicacy. The frozen Winter Ghost trembled all over, and for the first time in his life, he tasted his own fear.
"Brother, what is this?"
Xia Xiaocao saw the sable's head, and her eyes were shining, "Is this a gift you brought me, brother?" Thank you brother, I like it so much. ”
The corners of Xia Mu's mouth twitched, worthy of my sister.
The next moment, the white sable took a sharp breath, and the winter ghost let out a miserable scream, and then it was sucked into the stomach by the white sable like a cloud of mist. After eating, the sable retracted its warm 'quilt' with great satisfaction, and hiccuped happily.
[Kill the Winter Ghost, reward Chivalry +500, Killing Aura +1]
"Ah Huang!"
Xiaocao only saw Ah Huang lying on the ground at this time. Xia Mu was also extremely sad, Lao Huang and their family had been dependent on each other for many years, and they were already a member of the family...... I shouldn't have eaten the Winter Ghost so easily. Natsuki thought hatefully.
"Xiaocao, don't worry yet, the winter ghost feeds on fear and likes to play with prey, Ah Huang should just be injured, quickly bandage him."
Xia Mu stretched out his hand, and sure enough, there was a faint breath between his nose, but his body was very cold, Xia Mu first fed it a drop of qi and blood medicine, and at the same time lost a wisp of pure yang Wuji internal force, Ah Huang is just an ordinary domestic dog, and I am afraid that I can't stand it anymore.
After drinking the potion, the blood on his body quickly stopped, and at the same time, his breathing became clear and rhythmic, Xiaocao hugged Ah Huang was obviously very afraid, and the pear blossoms cried with rain. Natsuki was a little jealous.
If I die, will my sister ...... Phew! I'm not going to die.
Outside the house, a man broke in.
"Brother Xia, beware of the winter ghosts...... Forehead...... It's over? ”
"Well, the winter ghost that came into my house was eaten by a sable."
"I see, I was still thinking that Brother Xia, if you don't know the characteristics of the winter ghost, will you suffer, it seems that I am too worried." Wei Wei was halfway through speaking, and saw a little girl staring at him, "Brother Xia, this is Sister Ling?" Can there be damage? ”
"I'm fine, my brother beat the monster away!"
Xia Mu was very relieved when he heard this, she was her own sister. But he immediately saw Xia Xiaocao's eyes roll and open his small mouth with a missing front tooth.
As soon as Xia Mu saw Xiaocao's appearance, he knew that there was nothing good, so he quickly picked her up and stuffed her into the quilt, and at the same time took out the white sable from his arms and stuffed it into Xiaocao's arms.
"There are still a lot of winter ghosts out there now, dad, you look at the grass, I'll go out and drive the winter ghosts away."
Xiaocao was very dissatisfied with Natsuki's behavior of picking her up, but when she saw the fluffy white sable, she instantly threw her previous thoughts out of the clouds.
Xia Shi instructed, "Pay attention to safety." ”
Natsuki saw the dagger next to his father's pillow, "I will, father, I have found medicine that can cure your body this time, and in the future, you will never need it again." ”
……
"Brother Wei, tell me about the weaknesses of the winter ghosts that you know."
"Winter ghosts are born from a wisp of killing energy between heaven and earth combined with the void spirits on the ground, their rank is extremely high, and there are few things that can restrain them, but the void ghosts are often difficult to survive the winter, and some people believe that it is the yang and energy generated by the spring leylines that disperse them. The Void Spirits grow in strength by one point every winter, and they feed on fear. ”
The power of yang and harmony generated by the leylines? This is completely different from Xia Mu's cultivation of pure yang internal power. And at this time, the earth's veins are covered by ice and snow, where does the yang and qi come from??
"Although the rank of the winter ghosts is high, but the strength is very weak, the embarrassment is that they will change their form when they encounter danger, and it is difficult to attack him by ordinary means, we use special magic weapons in the Jing Evil Division to disperse the killing qi in their bodies, without this breath, these winter ghosts can be killed casually."
Natsuki thought for a moment, suddenly opened his mouth wide, and a roar shook the entire town.
