Text Chapter 0006 Hungry Ghosts Devouring Souls
The moon is dark and the wind is high, and the time is approaching.
Meng Gu and Xue Liduo lurked in a haystack at the back of the village, staring at the dry well not far away. The dry well was surrounded by bags of grain and goods. Soon, the figure shook in the direction of Black Wind Mountain, and a team of five people led the carriage towards this side. These people all had weapons in their hands, all of them were sturdy, green-skinned, with pointed ears and vertical pupils, and they were grinning and laughing all the way.
"A group of waste demon clans, the most powerful is a bamboo level 2. Xue Liduo said disdainfully to Meng Gu.
"Don't be careless, just observe for a while. "Meng Gu was born as a small blacksmith, and he has never injured a person when he is so big, so he is naturally very nervous when he sees a mountain bandit for the first time.
Xue Liduo glanced at him, shook his head and stopped talking.
The group of mountain bandits walked to the dry well, while talking and laughing loudly, while carrying large and small packages onto the carriage, in a blink of an eye the carriage was full, one of the leaders of the team searched around and saw that nothing was left behind, then waved the team back to the mountain.
Xue Liduo patted Meng Gu's head and whispered: "If you don't make a move, you'll leave, don't move here, I'll just go." β
Meng Gu turned his head and just wanted to talk to Xue Liduo, but found that there was no one around him.
The wind suddenly blew around the dry well, and the surrounding branches shook rapidly, making a seeping hissing sound, and white mist appeared within a few meters of the dry well.
"There seems to be a situation!" shouted one of the demon clansmen, the steel knife in his hand clenched to his chest. The other demon clans also became vigilant, grabbed their weapons, and everyone looked in the direction of the dry well.
The white fog at the dry wellhead became thicker and thicker, hovering in the shadow half a meter above the wellhead.
Suddenly, a skinny pale ghost hand stretched out from the well, and grabbed the edge of the well with a snap!
"What's that?!" the demon clan looked at each other, the weapons in their hands trembling.
At this moment, a human head rose faintly from the well! Long white hair covered the entire face, and under the support of the pale ghost hand, he crawled out of the dry well stiffly, but his whole body appeared in front of the dry well in the light and flint.
The red dress was barefoot, and she stood there motionless with her head bowed deeply......
The demon clan held their breath, they didn't know what the hell was going on.
Suddenly, the originally deep head mechanically shook from side to side a few times, making a clicking sound, as if the head didn't belong to that shoulder at all! The demon clan was startled, and everyone instinctively took a few steps back, and the captain just now felt that he stepped on something when he retreated, and when he swept back, he saw a faint red and a terrifying mouth that was cracked to his cheeks!
"Ghost!ahββ!hh
The ghost's head suddenly tilted ninety degrees and made a clicking sound, and the blood basin showed a terrifying and weird smile.
"Brothers!it!!!......!!!!!
Meng Gu lowered his head slightly in the haystack, one half covering his eyes, one hand covering his mouth, and his stomach turned upside down. The miserable screams kept coming into his ears, and he really wanted to cover his ears with two more hands......
ββββββββ
The wind stopped, the bright moon broke through the clouds, and everything was quiet.
Meng Gu timidly walked out of the haystack, looked at Xue Liduo with his back to him, and slowly walked over avoiding the blood stains and corpses on the ground.
"That...... Are you alright?" Meng Gu asked weakly.
Xue Liduo slowly turned her head, biting her little lip, a pair of moving big eyes flickered towards Meng Gu a few times, and said playfully: "I'm full!"
Meng Gu greeted Xue Liduo in shock: "When you are full, leave quickly, this place should not stay for a long time......"
The two turned around and were just about to leave, when they found that the village was full of people, torches were shaking, and more than 100 villagers were shouting and rushing towards this side. The leader was an elite old man, followed by more than a dozen middle-aged men armed with sickles and pitchforks, and the strong butcher man before was also among them.
The old man took half a step forward, pointed to the ground and asked, "These ...... You did it?"
"......" Meng Gu couldn't think of how to explain it for a while.
The butcher interjected, "Village Chief, I saw them just now! These two people are either evil ghosts or zombies, and they are definitely not good!"
"It's supposed to be a zombie. β
"Yes, zombies eat people, and demons don't kill people. β
"The woman is a zombie, and the man should be a corpse chaser. β
The people in the back pointed and talked to each other. The village chief raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and said loudly: "The zombie evil thing is afraid of fire, everyone surround it, burn the female zombie, and trap the man!"
The villagers hula gathered around, and the people who were stabbed by the raging fire in the middle of the night could not open their eyes. Xue Liduo sneered disdainfully: "Hehe, give you face!" With a shake of his hands, the wind flickered around, the flames swayed back and forth quickly, and the villagers were so frightened that they retreated.
"Don't! Don't!" Meng Gu hurriedly stopped Xue Liduo and comforted her, "Don't move, don't be impulsive!" β
Meng Gu walked up to the village chief and saluted with his fists, and the village chief subconsciously took a step back and stared at him vigilantly.
Meng Gu said with a little embarrassment: "Village chief, we have eliminated the mountain bandits and eliminated the harm to the village, and we will leave now, and we will never affect everyone's life again." β
The village chief said coldly: "You come to my Qingshi Village to cultivate the evil law, if you don't leave, won't the whole village be eaten by your zombies? If you leave, the black wind giant demon will come to my village to ask for someone, how can I explain?" After saying that, he glanced at the person next to him, and a sturdy man holding a wooden stick came to Meng Gu's head with a roar!
Meng Gu spun for a while, blood flowed down and soaked into his eyes, and everything became red and blurred.
In a trance, Meng Gu heard the village chief shouting: "Burn that woman! Tie up this man!" He had been pressed to the ground by several hands, he turned his head to look, only to see dozens of torches thrown towards Xue Liduo, and for a time the flames were soaring, and the blood-colored flames reflected the hideous and distorted faces of the villagers.
Meng Gu was beaten again and fainted......
ββββββββ
The mountain breeze is slightly cool, the sun rises in the east, and the birds and insects chirp softly.
Meng Gu slowly opened his eyes, his head was still a little dizzy, and he looked around, the trees were thick, and he was lying on Xue Liduo's lap, fragrant and cold. Xue Liduo's expression was indifferent, and he was gently wiping the blood stains on Meng Gu's head.
Meng Gu got up and sat up and asked, "Where is this?"
"Black Wind Mountain. β
"What about the villagers of Qingshi Village?"
"I don't know, I saved you and ran out. β
"Oh...... That's fine. Meng Gu breathed a sigh of relief.
Xue Liduo also took a deep breath and gave Meng Gu a cold look.
"Xue Liduo, I don't think what the village chief said is completely unreasonable, we killed the mountain bandits who took the goods, they will definitely go to the villagers for trouble. β
"Well, then what?" said Xue Liduo angrily.
"Anyway, you have to eat people and cultivate, we might as well practice in this Black Wind Mountain, and when our strength is strong, we will take the mountain bandit's nest in one fell swoop, do you think it is feasible?" Meng Gu asked tentatively.
"The demon bandits in the Black Wind Mountain, three sub-villages, one general village. The strength of the small leader of the village is also the bamboo rank, and the leader of the Black Wind Giant Demon is not clear. Xue Liduo said coldly.
"How do you know so much?" Meng Gu asked in surprise.
"The power of ghosts. "Xue Lido didn't seem to want to deal with him.
"Oh...... It's amazing. Meng Gu muttered to himself.
"You first refine yesterday's energy, and then you hungry ghost will improve your strength. Xue Liduo said to Meng Gu.
"Well, okay. Meng Gu meditated cross-legged, using the Senluo Mental Method, and the void was filled with rich energy, primitive and chaotic. "Oh, this is the energy absorbed by eating those five demon clan mountain bandits yesterday, there are so many?" Meng Gu sighed in surprise. With a twist of mind, the chaotic energy began to rapidly decompose and transform, and then it was attached to the gate formed by the huge ghost claws, and he could clearly feel that the two ghost claws had become stronger and more powerful, and the operation of the red void channel was much clearer and smoother than before.
Xue Liduo on the side was also feeling the effect of Meng Gu's refining, and his face was filled with a hint of joy.
"I didn't expect this kid's conversion rate to be so high! It's almost completely converted and absorbed!"
In half a day, Meng Gu opened his eyes and looked at Xue Liduo.
Xue Liduo said to him with great satisfaction: "Yes, this hungry ghost has reached the strength of the 6th level of the bamboo rank, and he has jumped 3 levels!"
"Ah, it turns out that the cultivation of the Hundred Ghost Dao is so fast, if we clean up the bandits of this Black Wind Mountain, will we be able to reach the stone steps?" Meng Gu was a little stunned, but even more excited.
"What about dreaming, the amount of energy required for each stage is very different, and the further you go, the slower it becomes!"
"Oh, that's it, that's... How many people have your deity eaten?" Meng Gu asked carefully, every time he asked about Xue Liduo's personal matters, he would be scolded, and Meng Gu was a little afraid.
"If you count all the monsters and spirit beasts, five thousand gold ranks. "Xue Liduo has a lot of a match and a match.
β...... What?!" Mengu's jaw almost fell to the ground. When he came to his senses, he suddenly asked excitedly: "You mean, if you don't eat people, you can cultivate the Hundred Ghost Dao by eating monsters?"
"Yes, whether it is a mortal, a cultivator or a demon, as long as it is a living being, it has energy, more or less, and the ghost can absorb it for its own use. But with your current strength, don't think about any monsters and spirit beasts, you will stuff people's teeth when you go. β
"That ......" Meng Gu seemed to have discovered a new world, and he was excited and just wanted to continue asking but was interrupted by Xue Liduo.
"Stop! I know what you want to ask! I can't eat the spirit miner soul! I can't digest it! Can you not be naΓ―ve? If you can absorb it, it will be full of gods and Buddhas for a long time?!" Xue Li gave Meng Gu a blank look.
"......" Meng Gu lowered his head embarrassedly, and suddenly he raised his head again and asked seriously: "There is another thing, you said that I am also the only inheritor of the "Senluo Heart Sutra", why did I just go through the beating?
Xue Liduo sneered and said, "The Hundred Ghost Dao is originally a technique for summoning ghosts to fight, and without the trick of strengthening the cultivator's body, the Demon Beast Dao is the strongest technique for cultivating oneself." The ghost is your sword and your patron saint. β
"Guardian Spirit......" Meng Gu was silent for a while, and his voice became softer: "You told me before that you can summon the designated ghosts on the silver ladder with your heart, if I work hard to cultivate, will I be able to meet my father one day?"
Xue Liduo hesitated for a long time before replying: "If I tell you that the ghosts of the Hundred Ghost Dao are not the ghosts you know in common sense, they are just ordinary creatures in the other realm, can you accept it?
"......" Meng Gu lowered his head and was silent, a wisp of sadness surrounded the two.
"Okay, let's go!Catch the mountain bandits!" Xue Liduo broke the embarrassment, smiled and pulled Meng Gu and walked towards the depths of the Black Wind Mountain......
