Chapter 8: Blood Cat, Mountain Spirit
It was already dawn, and the three of them had already begun to hurry, and all three of them were extremely cautious along the way, because they had no idea what strange things they would encounter along the way. And this is getting closer and closer to Tianguzi, which means that there will be more and more dangers, because Tianguzi is a place of extreme yin, and there will naturally be many evil things with extremely heavy yin qi around.
"Meow-meow-"
Entering the depths of the jungle, the three of them heard the meow of the cat, so they immediately stopped, looked around, and looked at a few hairless and red-blushing cats coming from the depths of the jungle, and those green eyes in the daytime, it was also terrifying, and even when it barked, it could be seen that the teeth in its mouth were long and sharp, and if it was bitten, I don't know what would happen!
"This is a famous blood cat, so be careful!"
Tang Moyan looked at the blood cat slowly walking towards them, reminding the two of them that if they were bitten by this blood cat, they didn't know what would happen, but he only knew that if they were not treated in time, the wound would slowly decay until the whole body followed the decay, and then died.
"If you are bitten by a blood cat, you can't be cured at all now, and you will even die from rotting wounds!"
The evil thing that came towards them, Xiao Lingyu had seen it in ancient books, and it was recorded in ancient books that someone had been bitten at the beginning, but because he could not develop an antidote, the bitten person died. At the beginning, he had studied this disease, but there was no subject for research at the time, and he finally gave up, and he thought that this evil thing might not be encountered, so he did not focus too much.
The three of them all entered a nervous state, and He Zhanting, who was on the side, also took out the bow and arrow he was carrying at this time, which he specially set up, and only needed to assemble it a few times.
He Zhanting looked at the blood cat running towards them at this time, pulled up his bow and arrow, and shot accurately. The blood cat let out a terrifying cry, attracting all the blood cats around him, at this time there were more and more blood cats, and He Zhanting couldn't cope with it at all with a bow and arrow.
"Is there a charm?"
Tang Moyan looked at He Zhanting and Xiao Lingyu a little anxiously, he really couldn't think of it now, what other way to deal with the blood cat, in fact, he didn't know what to do to deal with the blood cat, if there is a charm now, maybe it can still work, and now there is only this way.
"Yes, yes, yes - Lao Gu gave some, but it didn't work."
Xiao Lingyu complained that the talisman given to him by Gu Yanyu was completely useless, but he handed the talisman to Tang Moyan, only to see Tang Moyan sticking the talisman on the arrow, and asked He Zhanting to shoot the front full of arrows in case the blood cat came. He Zhanting did as Tang Moyan asked, and this trick really worked, but he didn't dare to approach at all when he saw the blood cat.
"Let's go! If the blood cat reacts and bypasses by the side, we're done. β
Tang Moyan reminded the two of them, and by the way, put the remaining few talismans into their pockets, maybe they would be useful later.
The two, led by Xiao Lingyu, came to the entrance of Tianguzi. In a cave place, Xiao Lingyu motioned for the two to follow him, as long as they walked through the cave, they would reach Tianguzi. The three of them entered the cave, it was pitch black all around, and they couldn't see anything, Xiao Lingyu took out a small flashlight and led the way in front.
The more they walked inside, the more they felt a chill rising from the soles of their feet to the top of their heads, and the three of them couldn't help but shiver, looking around, looking at the rock walls around them, they were actually squirming.
"It'sβlike life, limp and moving."
He Zhanting touched the rock wall, looked at Xiao Lingyu and Tang Moyan with a very surprised expression, and pointed to the cave towards the two.
"Let's go! If you're woken up, I don't know what will happen! β
Tang Moyan looked at He Zhanting with a blank look, urging He Zhanting to leave quickly, he didn't want to stay longer now, if he woke up this behemoth, they would not be able to deal with it, and there was no way to deal with it at all.
"What do you mean?"
When He Zhanting heard what Tang Moyan said, he didn't quite understand what was going on!
"We enter the body of an animal, this animal is called the mountain spirit, because of its large body, and it likes to be sleepy all year round, so it is here to hinder some things from running in. Look at the top of your head, the one that is still beating is the heart, the last divine beast was sealed, and this mountain spirit body was left behind because it was connected to the mountain, and it was also regarded as a sacred object to protect this mountain. β
Xiao Lingyu knew about the mountain spirit body, because the previous head of the family had told him about it, and because they had the blood of the divine beast in their bodies, it was not easy for the mountain spirit body to find out that they had entered Tianguzi. Seventy years ago, the heads of the five major families let the mountain spirit body stay here, also to prevent the evil creatures in Tianguzi from escaping out of the scourge.
"It's-"
When He Zhanting heard what Xiao Lingyu said, he didn't know what mood to express at this time, it was the first time he had entered the body of a monster. He Zhanting followed Xiao Lingyu and Tang Moyan, and he didn't dare to touch his hands around, for fear of waking up the sleeping mountain spirits.
"Let's go! Get the coffin fungus before it gets dark, and return early, otherwise you won't know what evil things you will encounter! β
Tang Moyan reminded the two of them that he was really afraid of encountering any evil things again, and there were still four pieces of rune paper, and he didn't know if he could hold on until they went back!
"Hmm!"
The two nodded in agreement, they also knew that if it was at night, it would be extremely dangerous for them, so they needed to take advantage of the day to obtain the coffin fungus and return to the Zixuan Pavilion.
