In Tang Yao's opinion, there was nothing difficult in this arena itself, but it was not difficult to catch an ancient spirit, but now it seems that this competition itself is not simple.

The child didn't seem to be wary, and really took Tang Yao on the road, and didn't go far before he saw curling smoke floating at the foot of the mountain not far away, and then a closer look could see a farmhouse sitting, the house was a standard farm yard, a fence and a piece of private land in front of the house, but there were no poultry and other animals.

The boy led them outside the fence gate and told them to wait there, saying that his grandmother had a strange temper and that he would first ask her if she would see them, and then he went into the farmhouse, and soon the child ran out and waved at them, indicating that they could go in.

"Be careful, I don't know what's going on inside." Tang Yao reminded in a low voice, then pushed open the fence door in front of him and walked in.

The two stickers that were similar to the door gods on the door of the farmhouse were splashed with red blood and couldn't see clearly, and after pushing the door open, it felt very cold, as if the farmhouse was a big ice cellar inside, these two points alone were abnormal enough, and what was even more abnormal than these two points was that there was a strange smell wafting in the room, Fang Chao pinched his nose and asked, "What smells so bad?" ”

Song Shun said coldly: "You can smell this stench if you put the corpse for a week." ”

This sentence frightened Fang Chao for a while, and Song Shun scolded with a blank look: "Don't scare me, I'm cowardly." ”

There was not much space in the house, only three rooms, and the boy said to them, "Go quickly, grandma is waiting." ”

The door of the inner room was closed, and Tang Yao saw that it was obviously just one of the rooms in the house, but there was an iron chain hanging on the door lock, this kind of chain locked the outside door, why lock a room in the house.

It was even colder when he entered the room, Tang Yao couldn't help but shiver slightly, the windows in the room were sealed and no light came in, he looked inside, and vaguely saw a person sitting on the bed, looking like a woman, Tang Yao walked into the room and said, "Old man, excuse me." ”

After saying this, he was just about to go inside, when he suddenly heard a gloomy voice from the room say, "Just stand there and don't move, if you have anything to say, just say it there." ”

Tang Yao stood at the door and frowned slightly, but he still didn't continue to walk into the house and said, "Old man, we are here to see the land, the nearby land seems to be quite good, I heard that the title deed is in your hand, so let's talk about cooperation." ”

Tang Yao was purely talking nonsense, the purpose was to move quietly into the house, trying to see what this old man hiding in the dark looked like, and when he finished speaking, he had already moved about a small step inside, and at the same time, when he entered the courtyard, he turned on the pupils, and in the dark environment, the pupils could see more clearly than ordinary eyes.

The small step he had moved was enough for him to see the old man coiled on the bed beside him, but through the pupils he saw not an ordinary old man, but more like a snake coiled on the bed.

In the pupils, he could see a rough outline of the old man at this time, and that outline was very similar to a monster with a human upper body and a snake on the lower body.

Although he was taken aback in his heart, Tang Yao did not show it on his face, while waiting for the old man to answer, he was silently thinking about what the old man in front of him had to do with the competition, could it be that this old man was the ancient spirit that the competition required to catch?

"You're here to buy land? Who told you to buy this land, this land is a wasteland with nothing, what are you going to do with it? The old man's voice sounded a little gloomy, and he even seemed to make a snake-like "......hiss" sound when he finished every sentence.

"We actually happened to pass by, and we thought this place was very good, why waste it, wouldn't it be comfortable to build a big mansion and hire a few servants after buying it?" Tang Yao continued to lie, and at the same time, Lu Tong also continued to secretly observe the old man, at this time he moved a small step forward, and could see the appearance of this woman entrenched on the bed more clearly, Tang Yao could almost conclude that she was definitely an ancient spirit who mimicked a monster.

"Hehe, build a big mansion in a place full of dead people, and hire people, hehe......" The old woman suddenly laughed gloomily, and the laughter made Tang Yao goosebumps.

"If I told you that this place has killed a lot of people, that it is a land that has been cursed, will you still buy it?" The old woman asked.

"What do you mean by the curse on this land?"

The old woman moved slightly, Tang Yao peeked and saw the legs like a long snake tail moving under the quilt, the old woman changed her comfortable posture and continued: "That was many years ago, before this land was not very peaceful, either locusts or rain, the harvest was always bad, the villagers were not full of food and were about to run out to be bandits, and then a mage came from the countryside, he told the villagers that this land was originally good, but why did everyone have a hard time, because there was a monster living in the village, The monster felt that the villagers did not respect it, so it cast a spell to make the villagers' lives difficult, the people in the village were panicked and asked the mage what to do, the mage said that there was a way, he said that in a few days the monster will be a catastrophe adult, but it is not enough to practice this catastrophe will definitely not be able to pass, and it will be killed by the thunder at that time, but if the village sends a child to it, it will leave a wisp of remnant soul after being hit by the thunder, as long as the remnant soul enters the child's body, then its life is still saved, and it will live in the village from then on, Thinking of the good of the villagers, bless the village with good weather and good weather. ”

Hearing this, Tang Yao immediately thought of the illusion he had seen when he first entered the arena before.

Later, a few days later, there was thunder and rain at night, some villagers said that a deserted temple on the mountain was struck by lightning, burned a tattered, the village chief felt that the mage was right, so he asked the mage to do it, and chose a lonely child in the village, let the child dress up and ride on the back of the white ox, under the leadership of the villagers and the mage went up the mountain to the broken temple, the child was on the body from then on, became a half-human and half-demon, but the villagers could not wait for the monster's return, the monster was a moody thing, There are monsters for good, and there are monsters for evil, they met a bad monster this time, and the children did not think of the good of the villagers, but went to the village to make waves, the mage fought it but was beaten half to death by it, and the mage taught the villagers the last method when he was dying, he said that the things in the world are mutually restrictive, there are evil demons in this place, and there are naturally mountain gods in the village to protect the people, and the mage asked the villagers to go to the mountains to invite the good mountain god to possess the body of another child, and kill the evil demon with the mountain god, the villagers have no choice but to do it, The mountain god did not show up but sent a good demon to appear, the good demon on the body of another child, the two demons fight, and finally the good demon killed the evil demon, but it is a pity that the evil demon was too vicious before he died and cursed this land can no longer grow crops, cursed the children here were born with a bad disease, did not think that the curse really worked, the villagers were forced to move away, and the old people did not want to go and died on this land, and this place eventually became a barren land. The old woman stopped at this point.

Tang Yao was listening to it with great energy, and suddenly lost his follow-up and hurriedly asked, "What happened to the good demon?" ”

At this moment, he felt something rubbing at his feet, and as soon as he looked down, he saw that it was a thick snake tail wrapped around his legs, and then he pulled it violently, and actually dragged Tang Yao into the room, Tang Yao immediately pulled out the Victory Evil Sword and shouted at the same time: "Song Shun, Fang Chao, be careful, there is a situation." ”

Song Shun outside rushed in with a thousand evil demon knives, and Fang Chao smashed the closed door panel on the window out of a hole, and a beam of sunlight shone in through this hole and fell on Tang Yao's body, Tang Yao saw a very old and wrinkled face in front of him through this ray of sunlight, it was an old woman who was not in shape, she looked like she was hundreds of years old, the outline of her whole face looked like a person, but if she looked closely, her facial features felt more like a snake.

"Hehe, you are really not ordinary businessmen, are you here to kill me?" The old woman shouted.

Tang Yao was not frightened by the other party and said loudly: "Who are you?" ”

"I'm the girl who was taken on by the good demon back then."
