Chapter 7: The Devil Dies
"How can it help? Isn't it strange that the demons in here have no reason to wander around me, I can't sense their breath, and they don't fear me? ”
I turned my head and glanced at Hu Chong, then thought about it, and said, "A few ghosts and demons can be unscrupulous in front of me, what does this mean?" This shows that they are not afraid of being destroyed at all, and there must be some backing behind them. We have to solve the root cause of this problem, otherwise, we can only destroy a few evil spirits, and I am afraid that the symptoms will not cure the root cause! Hu Chong, you've been in this Banyang Town for so long, haven't you found anything out of the ordinary? ”
When Hu Chong heard this, he immediately explained helplessly: "Brother Li Dao, I have already said before, since I came to Banyang Town, my perception ability has completely disappeared, and it is nothing without perception ability, the problem is that my previous cultivation is useless." Now I seem to be a wasted person, no different from ordinary people, what else can I perceive? But...... There are a lot of rumors here, and it sounds like it's true! ”
"What rumors?"
I asked with a frown.
"Rumored ......"
"Squeak!"
Before Hu Chong's words were finished, I suddenly heard a sound of pushing the door panel from the inner courtyard, which interrupted Hu Chong's words, and Hu Chong suddenly became nervous, and hurriedly whispered beside me: "Brother Li Dao, it seems that you have to end the matter in front of you first, otherwise it's useless to say anything now......" Hearing this, I nodded slightly, and did not respond to Hu Chong's words, but turned around and walked towards the door to the inner courtyard.
When I entered the inner courtyard, I first glanced at the room where I had stayed last night, and then looked at the room where the coffin was kept, and the door of that room was hidden. Could it be ...... Could it be that the corpse inside the coffin, the corpse has changed?! Thinking of this, I flashed to the door of the room, and just as I was about to push the door open, Hu Chong's voice came urgently: "Li, Brother Li Dao, do you want to prepare something?" ”
"Uh...... Do you think I still have to open the altar and draw a few runes? Hehe! ”
I looked back at Hu Chong in surprise, how did this Hu Chong become so timid? Shaking his head with a wry smile, turning his head, I pushed the door open, the scene in front of me made me frown, but when I saw the lids of the three coffins, all of them were staggered a gap, the coffin seemed to have moved, I tried to sense it again, but I still didn't sense a little bit of yin and evil energy, let alone the existence of corpse qi, but the more this is the case, the more it makes me feel wrong, and there is no strange breath at all, which is the most abnormal thing.
After thinking about it, I approached the coffin step by step, keeping closer, but when I was still three feet away from the coffin, I suddenly saw the coffin tremble, I raised my eyebrows, and then smiled: "Whether you are a corpse or an evil ghost, when you meet me Li Xianchu, you can only be considered unlucky!" With that, I walked up to the coffin without any scruples, waved my palm and slapped the end of the coffin lid, and the coffin lid flipped out.
At this moment, when I saw a carrion corpse burst up, I immediately waved my sword finger and shouted angrily: "Spirit Rhino Sword Finger!" When the white streamer rushed out of the back of the carrion, I clearly saw a dark ghost, with a terrible scream, collapsed, and the ghost immediately collapsed, and the carrion corpse was lying honestly in the coffin again.
"Ghost pushing corpses? It's really new! ”
I looked at the carrion in amazement, and thought of the scene just now, it was not the carrion corpse that changed, but the evil ghost pushing the carrion, most likely to scare me. It's a pity that his little trick to coax ordinary Taoist priests is okay, and he almost wants to bluff me. After killing the first demon, I turned to the second coffin, and first pushed the lid of the coffin, but I found that it was an empty coffin, and there was no body, so I frowned, and wondered what was going on? How could there be no corpses?
Just when I was puzzled, the third coffin suddenly made a strange noise, I immediately came to the coffin, just about to push open the lid, suddenly heard a familiar voice from inside, this voice, it was clearly the voice of the fat proprietress last night...... "Immortal Dao spare life...... It's all because we don't know the height of the sky, and we actually committed murder in front of the immortal road, and now we know that we are wrong, please spare the immortal road......
"Oh? I have a question for you now, if you can answer me honestly, it's not impossible to let you go, well, since you are all evil ghosts, why can't I sense the yin qi on your body? Also, what is there in this Banyang Town that can cover our perception ability? So much so that my perception is completely invalid here, can you answer me? ”
I immediately asked.
"This ...... Immortal Dao, I, I, I dare not say it, if I say it, my soul will be scattered, and please Xiandao don't force me......"
The fat proprietress was obviously trembling, and she seemed to be scared to the extreme, but I felt that her fear was more of a fear than being afraid of me, but being afraid of ......
"What are you afraid of? I didn't say I was going to let your soul go, are you afraid of someone else or something? Don't worry, as long as I don't want you to die, no one here has the ability to cross me and hurt you! ”
I said categorically to the fat lady in the coffin.
"Woooooooooo......oo The immortal road doesn't know the reason, if you know, you definitely won't say that, I know that the magic of the immortal dao is profound, but ...... But here's ...... Here it is...... Yes!! ”
I only heard the fat proprietress whimpering before she finished speaking, but suddenly a hysterical scream came out of the coffin, and as the cry came out, I immediately shook the coffin, but what caught my eyes was ...... turned out to be a rotting corpse, but this rotting corpse was shattered in the coffin, and the soul of the fat proprietress in it seemed to be gone.
"Huh? This, this...... What the hell is going on? Who was able to kill this female ghost right under my nose?! ”
I was shocked, but my perception was completely lost, and I couldn't detect the existence of other breaths, and the fat lady just now seemed to be about to talk about the key, when she suddenly stopped, what did she want to tell me? What to tell me? I frowned and kept talking to myself, thinking back to what the fat lady had just said, she said...... "Although my magic power is profound, this is ...... What's here? Could it be that there is something quirky about this place? Or does it mean that the town of Banyang is weird? What the hell does she mean?! ”
"Brother Li Dao! How's it going here? ”
At this moment, Hu Chong rushed in quickly and asked me anxiously.
I sighed deeply, and after a moment of silence, I whispered, "The evil spirits here have all been destroyed...... Let's go! After a moment's hesitation, I decisively turned around and walked out of the room, and Hu Chong followed me out, until we were about to walk out of the inn, I suddenly turned back and said to Hu Chong again, "You must tell me everything you know and everything you suspect!" Don't miss anything! ”
"Uh-huh! This is certain, but Brother Li Dao still has to ...... outside You have to cooperate with me a little, otherwise I won't be able to pay in front of those fools, right? ”
Hu Chong smiled and threw a look at me intentionally or unintentionally.
"Alright then, you go out first, I'll follow you!"
I have been haunted by the incident just now, and I have no time to take care of anything else, so I took two steps back and let Hu Chong walk in front, just when Hu Chong was about to walk out of the inn, I suddenly called out to Hu Chong, and said: "Those people outside are just blinded by your former high priest, who are some fools?" When did you kid look down on people so much? Don't talk nonsense in the future, you know? ”
"Yes, yes, what Brother Li Dao taught me is, I remembered, hehe!"
Hu Chong shrugged his shoulders, immediately straightened out his outfits, and then strode out of the inn. After a while, the people outside gathered quickly, surrounded Hu Chong one by one, and asked long and short questions, which was roughly to ask how the haunted incident of the inn behind us was resolved. At this time, Hu Chong cleared his throat and said to everyone with a serious face: "Hmm! After the casting of the spirit master, the evil ghosts in it have been destroyed, you go in and clean up the broken corpses inside, and it will be fine! ”
"The Great Spirit Master is mighty! The Great Spirit Master is the protector of our Banyang Town! ”
“…………”
Bursts of words of praise and worship immediately spread among the crowd, and Hu Chong's reputation was greater than that of the big sacrifice in front.
Hu Chong immediately waved his hand solemnly, and said: "With the spirit master guarding here, you can sit back and relax, now that the matter is done, the spirit master will return to the spirit cave to rest, you can disperse!" With that, Hu Chong waved everyone at any time, dismissed everyone, and took me all the way to the depths of the street. When I was leaving, I didn't forget to look back at those people, but I saw that they still looked pious and excited with joy, watching Hu Chong drift away.
Not far away, I whispered to Hu Chong, "Didn't you say that you really want to leave here?" But do I find your praise for those people useful? Don't be happy, you kid! Don't forget that your whole body is created, and you still need to practice diligently to verify it! ”
"Hey, hey! Brother Li Dao, don't worry, I'm just fooling them, I will definitely leave as soon as I have the chance! ”
Hu Chong smiled again, and then took me forward, half an hour later, just when we were about to leave the street of Banyang Town, I really saw a mountain at the entrance of the town, and in front of the mountain, decorated with a chatter, presumably that is the spiritual cave that Hu Chong said in his mouth.
