All Chapters_Chapter 176: Ghost Car

Jiufeng!

This name is not unfamiliar to the people of the Jing Chu generation. As the saying goes, "the nine-headed bird in the sky, the Hubei Yankee on the ground", the phoenix is the totem worshiped by the Chu people back then, and the description of the phoenix has been mentioned many times in Qu Yuan's "Lisao", and it is recorded in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas, the Great Wilderness of the North": "In the great wilderness, there is a mountain named Arctic Cabinet." The sea water is injected into the north. There are nine gods, with a human face and a bird body, and the name is nine phoenixes".

My throat rolled, and sweat broke out in my palms. The phoenix is a legendary sacred bird, and the nine phoenixes are the top creatures in Chu mythology, is the nine-headed strange bird in front of you really the legendary nine phoenixes?

"Quack ......"

The eight heads of the nine birds on the periphery of the nine-headed bird raised high and made a sharp and piercing sound, and the human face in the middle of it looked at me fixedly, and its green eyes bloomed with a strange look, which made me panic in my heart.

"Gaga...... Man...... Negative men deserve to die! ”

A shrill cry came from the face of the middle-aged woman, and as her voice fell, the eight raised heads all glared at me, and the whole eighteen eyes looked at me, and the sight sent chills down my back.

I tightened the evil sword in my hand, and at this time I was already targeted by the nine-headed bird, and I had no way to retreat, so I could only fight against the water. It's just that I wonder in my heart that Jiufeng is a divine bird, and it stands to reason that it should be an auspicious beast, but the nine-headed monster bird in front of me is clearly a peerless fierce bird, and the human face in the middle should be the middle-aged woman in Ding Yan's story.

Rumble!

The nine-headed monster bird flapped its huge wings, kicking up puffs of smoke and dust, and its calf-sized body began to fly gradually under the flapping of its wings. It was a pang in my heart that it would be a problem to let this bird fly into the sky, flying creatures have a natural advantage over terrestrial creatures. I gritted my teeth and decided to strike first. I kicked my legs on the ground and shot at the nine-headed bird.

Sou!

The nine-headed bird also saw me coming, and it gave up and continued to rise into the air, flapping its wings and gliding directly towards me in mid-air. Eight sharp beaks and a pair of sharp claws underneath me slammed down on me.

My eyes narrowed slightly, and as I was about to collide with the nine-headed bird, I jumped on both feet and threw my whole body to the side, dodging the attack. The claws of the nine-headed bird swooped down on the ground to create two huge deep pits, and each of the eight bird's heads pecked deep marks on the ground. I took advantage of this opportunity to turn around and slash at its buttocks, and the gray feathers flew wildly, and I cut a finger-deep wound on the bird's body, but it was nothing to the calf-sized body.

"Gaga...... Damn man! ”

The woman in the middle screamed with resentment, and the whole body of the bird turned around, and it simply stopped rising into the air, and the two claws of the bird moved directly on the ground, and the whole huge body crashed towards me.

Sonor!

I blocked the attack of a bird's beak with a sword, and the blade trembled, but the remaining seven heads of the birds came at me from all directions. In a hurry, I hurriedly swung my sword to resist. In the flash of lightning, I swung two birds' heads in succession, and even almost cut off one of them, but the other five birds' beaks pecked off a piece of meat on my thigh, shoulder, and chest and abdomen, which almost made me faint in pain, and the blood from the five holes was gushing out.

The so-called double fist is difficult to use the fourth hand, not to mention that I have to use a sword to block the opponent's eight bird heads, which is really amazingly difficult.

I glanced at the dense forest full of trees not far away, and after avoiding another attack by the strange birds, I jumped directly into the woods, according to my thoughts, as long as I entered the woods, with the body of this nine-headed bird, it would be difficult for me to rotate freely, and then it would be the time for me to take the opportunity to attack.

But to my disappointment, the nine-headed bird, seeing that I had fled, only chased after me for a moment, and then let out an angry roar and turned back to attack the light curtain that had risen from the stone henge. This just gave me a little respite,

"Xue'er, what the hell is this nine-headed bird, is it really a nine-headed phoenix? And what is the use of this stone henge that makes this bird so crazy. "I saw that the stone henge could no longer resist the attack of the nine-headed monster bird, the light curtain was shaking, and in the large array, several stone pillars burst directly, turning into a puff of stone powder and dissipating with the wind.

Cher finally spoke, and she seemed to hesitate for a moment before saying, "I don't know, I just vaguely remember that I came here with Katsuyuki's brother a long time ago, and he also wanted to pull out this evil sword, but he quickly put the sword back back after pulling it out, and he seemed to have told me what was under this big array." ”

I was a little speechless and said, "Then you still let me draw my sword, this bird is attacking the big array so crazy, I'm afraid the following things have something to do with it." ”

I tore off a few strips of cloth to redress the wound, and saw a few more stone pillars crack in the large array not far away, and the nine-headed bird let out a cheerful cry, and it seemed that it would only take a few minutes to completely destroy the light curtain.

"Wait a minute, you deal with it with the talisman that deals with souls and evil spirits, it should have an effect." Cher spoke suddenly.

I was stunned and hurriedly said, "What did you say?" Although this bird looks weird, it is indeed a physical creature, not a soul, and the exorcism charm has no effect on the creature at all. ”

Xue'er didn't answer, and in desperation, I could only rush towards the nine-headed bird again, and I couldn't watch it destroy the big array. It's just that what I didn't hear was that Xue'er in my mind sighed faintly: "My memory, did you seal it for me?" Brother Katsuno. ”

I stared with bated breath and quietly approached, the nine-headed monster bird was excitedly pounding into the big array at the moment, completely unaware that I was attacking him again. It wasn't until I jumped up behind it that one of its heads spotted me, but I couldn't allow it to react at this time, and I jumped straight from the ground and jumped up on top of it from behind.

I yelled, but the sword in my hand slashed at the neck of the woman's face in the middle of it, which was definitely the vital part of it. The sword went into the flesh, but unfortunately it didn't cut off a single sword, but instead the irritating nine-headed bird screamed, and the other eight heads twisted their necks and attacked me.

I bent my feet and pressed my whole body against its back, dodging a blow from the other side.

"Fool, use the talisman!" Cher yelled in my head.

I struggled with my heart, but finally chose to believe Cher's words, I grabbed the feathers on the bird's body with one hand, took out a large handful of yellow paper talismans from my pocket with the other, and stuck them on the nine-headed bird, while I began to recite the spell of the exorcism charm in my mouth.

There was a sharp pain, and I couldn't dodge it, and I was once again impaled in the shoulder by a bird's head. However, I forcibly held back, chanting the mantra continuously, and as my spell fell, the talisman attached to the nine-headed bird's back began to glow white.

"Gah!"

The nine-headed bird screamed in pain at the same time, and the woman in the middle had the sharpest face, and her mouth kept uttering the language of human curses, which was very harsh to hear. But as the talisman took effect, her body began to shake violently, and for a moment none of her nine heads attacked me.

I was overjoyed, and although I wondered why the exorcism talisman designed to deal with souls could cause damage to the Hydra, I couldn't care about it at this time. Looking at its painful appearance, I was full of energy, and the pain in my body was forgotten for a while.

I was standing on the back of the nine-headed bird at the moment, chanting the exorcism spell in my mouth, and at the same time, the evil sword in my hand flickered, and I slashed at the nine slender necks. The sword slashed through the flesh, and the face of the woman in the middle of the nine-headed bird let out a miserable scream and was cut off alive, and at this time, the remaining eight heads suddenly became much weaker. I was sure that at this time, of course, there could be no woman's kindness, and the sword in my hand danced, and with a few swishs, it directly cut off its remaining eight heads to the ground.

I kicked my legs, jumped up from the bird's back, landed on the side, and watched the bird in front of me fall to the ground, and I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

I've cut off all nine of my heads, and this monster should be dead now, and it can't die anymore.

"Cher, this nine-headed bird is obviously a physical body, why does the exorcism charm work on her? Could it be that this is possessed by an evil spirit? But that's not right, what kind of demon can control such a powerful monster. I exhaled deeply and asked Cher.

Xue'er hesitated for a moment, and said softly, "It should be a remnant soul of that thing under the formation." ”

I was stunned and exclaimed, "No, this woman's face is obviously the woman who was killed five years ago, how can it have anything to do with the things under this big array, and it is obviously an entity?" ”

But before Cher could answer me, things suddenly changed, and the heads and bodies of the birds that had fallen to the ground changed again, and a puff of gray mist rose up, just as I had demonstrated countless times before, and they came together again, and the gray body began to condense the shape of the bird's head at a speed visible to the naked eye.

I opened my mouth wide, and the hairs on my body stood upside down one by one, isn't nine heads enough? Does this guy have to grow a tenth head again, my God, this bird must not be the nine phoenixes in Chu mythology, that kind of divine object will definitely not be as evil as what he saw in front of him.

When the gray fog cleared and what was below appeared in front of me again, I was stunned and shivered all over. The creature that appeared in front of me, this time the size of a scalper, was covered with dense gray scales, and at the front was ten slender necks.

Among them, the eight necks around it are the same as the previous bird's head, and the middle one of the necks is also the face of the middle-aged woman, but the latest neck is not without any head, the neck is broken from it, the wound is unevenly cut, as if it was bitten off by something, black blood flows out of the wound, and it falls to the ground drop by drop, which looks dazzling and penetrating.

Ten heads, one skull broken, and blood dripping continuously.

This time I finally recognized what the creature in front of me was, I shuddered, and said slowly, "Ghost car!" ”

Ghost car!

It is not uncommon to see records of ghost cars in Chinese history, and I remember that I have seen about ghost cars in several ancient books before. According to legend, this bird originally had ten heads and could collect people's souls, and one of the heads was eaten by the tengu. In the Song Dynasty, the meticulous "Qi Dongye Yu" also said that the ghost car bird was eaten by the tengu and had a head, and the broken neck was dripping with blood all the time, and the place where the blood flowed would invite disaster.

The monster of the ghost car has always been active in Chinese folklore, and it is a well-known evil thing, and I really didn't expect that the evil bird that appeared in front of me was actually a ghost car......
