Volume 1: Once Upon a Time in the Capital Chapter 102: The Old Ghost of the Mountains and Forests

Li Xiangru put the demon collection pot in his arms, carried the Baipi knife behind his back, and walked out of the courtyard. The toes hit the ground, and a few steps jumped a few feet away. Although it is said that the realm of walking with the imperial "sword" is still too far away, and it is not as good as the master's cultivation, but now the lightness of the body and the strength in the body have improved a lot after the events that happened in the capital, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is not what it used to be.

In the past, when Chu Xiufeng lived, the surroundings were not quiet and abnormal, but there was no roar of insects and beasts like this night, and the strange thing was that those cries were like scolding in the streets and alleys of the countryside, with a little noise and uneasiness in the sharpness.

During the day, I see the green hills in the middle of the land, but at night it gives people a sense of withering and decay.

The roar of insects and beasts made Li Xiangru quite annoyed, the stagnation in the realm, the harvest in the small world, even his second revenge action did not make him satisfied. He hugged Chu Xiufeng and stayed quietly for a few days to relax his heartstrings, but he immediately noticed that there was something abnormal here. How not to make people angry? Is there really not a place in this world where the soul can be quiet for a while?

After a few leaps, Li Xiangru came to a big tree. Standing still for a moment and trying to find the source of those sounds, it was difficult to accurately capture the distance and proximity and the ups and downs, Li Xiangru frowned slightly, and could only find the largest sound to observe. After he locked on, he kicked the ground on his toes, jumped on a branch, and grabbed the branch with one hand to borrow his strength, and his figure floated again. Feet on the top of the tree, the branches and leaves float above the treetops. He let go of his spiritual sense to perceive the situation within a radius, only to find that three miles away, his spiritual sense seemed to have encountered a hard and heavy wall. The wall bounced back the spiritual power, with a hint of tenderness, even a hint of asking for help.

Li Xiangru's face was strange and puzzled, but he couldn't figure out the true meaning of this spirit.

After thinking for a while, he decided to take a risk to find out, three miles away, if there was any movement on the ugly girl's side, he could also rush back in time, so as not to fall into the trap of the enemy's place and move the tiger away from the mountain, and he didn't think that the abnormal change on the mountain tonight was aimed at him.

Thinking about this, Li Xiangru planned to find out. After a terrible cry came from there, he gritted his teeth and hung the Baipi knife behind his back to his waist, so that it would be more convenient for him to draw the knife in time. Leaping out like an arrow, jumping on the top of the tree with the help of leaves, and when it reached the place where it blocked its aura, it rolled forward a few volleys, landed on the ground, and hid behind a tree with a few arrows.

Out of caution in the heart of the 10,000-year-old ship, Li Xiangru checked the magic weapon on his body again, and after the inspection, he put his palm on the handle of the knife, adjusted his breathing, and slowly poked his head out from behind the big tree to carefully check the surroundings. He could already feel the soft breath getting closer and closer to him, and he heard a few whimpering sounds, this kind of low cry as if it was hurt made Li Xiangru very curious, and suddenly a more ferocious roar seemed to be teasing with a cruel smile.

Li Xiangru slowly approached with his body and breath, lying down on the ground in a bush, slowly raising his head and observing through the leaves.

Suddenly, I saw a slender shadow curled up in a robe, wearing a high, pointed hat, and the robe was like a scarecrow in the middle of the rice field.

"Hand over the golden pill, so that you don't die, and I can also raise your precious child myself and teach him the method of practicing immortality...... ......The tall and thin shadow stretched out his slender fingers, which were only white bones, and pointed to the ground. The voice is stiff, although it is human language, the tone is extremely strange, and the throat seems to be stuck by a fish bone, which is extremely unpleasant.

Li Xiangru turned his head, looked in the direction of the black shadow's finger from a different perspective, and found a white fox lying on the ground that was dying red with blood, and there was a shocking scar on the white fox's neck, the skin and flesh turned out, oozing blood. White hairs are soaked in blood and glued into tufts. There was an unyielding stubbornness in its eyes, and it grinned and showed its white teeth and let out a low hiss, and after glaring at the black shadow with hatred, it looked at the young white fox slowly crawling towards it with gentle regret.

The cub white fox staggered, crawled crookedly to the white fox, and let out a series of childish cries of "chirp" from its mouth. The little white fox slowly crawled to the white fox's side and bowed his head towards the white fox's body.

The white fox used the last of his strength to turn around and let the little white fox eat his last meal. After the white fox flipped over, its eyes were just on Li Xiangru, and there was a kind of surprise in its eyes, which slowly turned to pleading, and its throat kept squirming and making a low "quack" sound.

Li Xiangru's expression was complicated, it understood the eyes of the white fox, looking at the little fox squirming in the belly of the white fox, he felt a great and extremely maternal love. It's an opinion that crosses racial love. When I was dying, I was thinking about how to let my children live and live well.

Li Xiangru nodded to the white fox, and the white fox also understood. A few tears flowed from his eyes, and he looked at his child a few more times, and slowly closed his eyes. When he opened the ground again, his eyes burst out with a monstrous battle intent, this is the hope of the war will, and the hope of the mother's love.

But no one wants to die easily if they can live.

Humans are, and so are animals.

The black shadow watched quietly, the little white fox was eating, and from time to time his mouth let out a cruel laugh of "yiyi", and constantly bewitched: "Look, your child is still so young, he can't even walk." Although you can't see it growing up slowly, you can imagine it growing up and running freely and happily in this majestic deep mountain jungle. You have lived for a thousand years, you have smelled the smell of grass and earth, you have tasted the tender meat of wild beasts in the jungle, and you have even traveled a lot to and from the world, and you have seen the luxury and prosperity of the human race, don't you want your children to see those too?"

The black shadow's body slowly fluttered beside the white fox, and Li Xiangru realized that the black shadow had been floating on the ground, and the pair of fleshless foot bones with his hands were hanging up, and Li Xiangru's back was in a cold sweat. Look at the black shadow hat and pitch black again, only a pair of penetrating eyes are as red as fire.

Is this the legendary goblin?

Just as Li Xiangru was thinking about how to deal with it, a childish and trembling voice suddenly appeared in his mind and said, "Li ...... Plum...... Lee Sang-ru ...... Or run quickly...... Let's run...... Before it notices you...... It's also only because of ...... Draw attention ...... put it on the white fox...... Otherwise...... You've long been discovered by it...... It has at least ...... 2,000 years of tunneling...... You're no match for him at all......"

Li Xiangru didn't dare to move even more when he heard this, and he didn't even dare to inquire about the source of the sound, and after a while, he heard the voice say again: "Stupid............ Idiot...... I'm in your demon collecting pot...... You...... Don't mess around...... Master, I'm ...... Don't try to use your Demon Collector to deal with it...... Tell you...... Useless...... Hurriedly...... Run, it's too late......"

Collecting the demon pot, Li Xiangru then remembered that he received a little ghost in the small courtyard, but he didn't understand how this little ghost could communicate with him through the pot, and now was not the time to talk about it. He listened to the little ghost's voice, and he also knew that the old ghost in front of him was powerful. But the manly husband said that it was difficult to chase the horse, and he had just promised the white fox to help him, so he couldn't go back on his word at this time, right? It can hear the voice of the imp in the demon refining pot, but it doesn't know how to communicate with it, so it simply doesn't communicate, listening to the imp meaning that if he fails and is caught, this imp has no good fruit to eat, then, if you want to live, you must do your part. Even if you can't help it, you have to do it.

Li Xiangru ignored the little ghost and continued to stare at the black shadow, thinking about the enemy's strategy. Seeing that he was indifferent and even faintly had the intention of making a move, the little ghost was even more anxious, and scolded angrily: "Li Xiangru is like your bastard turtle grandson! You can't even beat it with a finger, it's a wild ghost in the mountains and forests, and this path has been practiced for at least 1,500 years! When you got close to it, I was already trembling, if it weren't for your broken pot, I would have been gone! Woo woo...... Uncle, you are uncle, you are my father! Hurry up and escape! This ...... Who can bear it! Master, I hid on the beams of the courtyard day and night, afraid that the immortals in the capital would find out that I moved my little finger and cleaned me up...... Do a good deed every day...... I fell in love with the fat widow in Deer Lane, and pursued her for two hundred years! Two hundred years...... She didn't dare to slack off in her cultivation in order to please her, and her stubborn heart had already loosened a little...... But you were damn enough to put it into this pot...... That day, you said that if I told the truth, you would let me go...... Now it's good that you've kept your promise to make eye contact with the white fox, and you've been reading the sages for a few years......

"Shut up!" Li Xiangru was made angry by the little ghost's noisy heart, and couldn't help but reprimand angrily, and the bushes shook a few times with his excited body, at this time, who patiently listened to the little ghost's gossip! However, the frightened color in his heart was dispelled a lot by the absurd story of the little ghost.

The little ghost in the pot was even more frightened when he heard this, he was not frightened by Li Xiangru's anger, but because the black shadow had already felt Li Xiangru's breath, and the slender figure slowly turned to face them, and there was a playful cold look in his blood-red eyes.

Li Xiangru also chuckled in his heart, rolled over a few times, pulled out a knife and stood up, just in front of the black shadow.

"Boom...... Terran Breath ...... Very good! Confucian people, I already feel the Confucian breath in your body!" The voice of the black shadow became more sharp, it stretched out a palm to Li Xiangru, and the white bones of Sen Sen slowly clenched into a fist, and said hatefully: "I...... What I usually hate the most is the so-called Confucian righteousness! However, the Confucian righteousness in your body is really weak and pitiful...... You are also weak and pitiful, like this beast waiting to be fed...... ......"

Li Xiangru licked his tongue nervously, sweat broke out on his forehead, and his back was even colder, and he already faintly felt the shirt on his back moist. This is a ghost, but it's not a human! If it's a human being, even if the other party's realm is a few stages higher than him, he will still fight hard under the inevitable avoidance, even if he is doomed to failure or death, it is better than facing this eerie and terrifying thing!

Li Xiangru had a decayed look on his face, he knew that he should have taken the seal of the ugly girl's "righteousness in the world", and he had no experience in dealing with this yin ghost thing!

He grabbed the Baipi Knife tightly with both hands, and slowly injected the aura into the knife, and the sword surface emitted a cold killing intent through the moonlight.
