Chapter 8: The Tiger and the Tiger
The group was getting closer and closer to Shanshui Village, and Situ Nan's body felt a chill even more thoroughly.
The sun had not yet set, and along the way, Situ Nan only felt that the scene in front of him was getting darker and darker.
Entering the village gate, accompanied by a chill that pierced the bone marrow, a locust tree came into view. The tree is thick and thick, and the foliage is so dense that you can barely see the gaps as far as you can see.
At this time, a strong aroma of wine suddenly came to my nose.
Everyone, except for Situ Nan, turned serious. Tang Cai'er had already put away the compass at this moment, and the brows on her face had been furrowed since she was close to Shanshui Village.
"Boom! New guests, the luncheon is over. ”
A wide figure suddenly appeared, only to see that this person's face was full of horizontal flesh, and a pair of eyes could only see a thin slit, fangs and mouth, extremely ugly! At this time, he was holding a wide and thick pig-killing knife in his hand, and the knife was stained with blood. He wore a white cloth bag on his body, and the cloth bag was covered with blood stains of different old and new.
The fat on the chest vibrated together with the gloomy laughter, like a row of wriggling maggots, which made people sick!
They are all butchers, Situ Nan felt that the monster in front of him, who didn't know if it was a human being, had insulted this profession. The fishy smell on his body made Situ Nan feel sick to his stomach.
"This thing is not human!"
The eerie laughter coming out of the bloody mouth, combined with this corrupt and even terrifying image, made Situ Nan very convinced that this was definitely not a living person, and immediately turned the knife to mobilize all his life force.
At this time, Miao Yu next to him suddenly patted Situ Nan's right hand holding the knife and shook his head gently.
"I'm here to ask for a drink, okay?"
Tang Cai'er, who was already extremely depressed, had a worse complexion at the moment when the butcher appeared, and the fishy smell made her extremely uncomfortable, not to mention that even Situ Nan, a peer, could not look directly at that dignity.
The person who talked to him became Lao Pu, who has always seemed very sophisticated, looking at the posture of these people, it seems that this is not the first time he has encountered such a situation!
Hearing Lao Pu's words, the butcher opposite stayed for a while, standing in place for a long time without moving, like the shell of a walking corpse.
"Today's feast is over, and there will be no feast in the evening!"
It took a while for the butcher's eerie voice to sound, and as his words fell, a gust of wind blew out of thin air, blowing the locust leaves next to several people, and making a burst of "Bang Bang!" The sound of clapping.
"Ask for a few drinks and go!"
Lao Pu's tone was firm.
After a long time, the wind stopped. The butcher, who was blocking the way, also turned sideways and gave way to the road.
At this moment, Situ Nan's whole body was already tense, and he followed Tang Cai'er and the others towards the east end of the village, and when he passed by the butcher, his heart was raised to his throat.
The strange conversation between Lao Pu and the butcher just now, the sudden wind, and the crackling of the old locust tree, all of which made Situ Nan feel very depressed.
Following the aroma of wine, everyone stepped into a manor in the village.
I saw that at this moment, there were more than a dozen tables in the manor, and each table was surrounded by more than ten or twenty people, who were lying on the table eating and drinking. Situ Nan and the others stepped into the manor, but they acted as if they had never seen it, and the movements of eating and drinking in their hands did not stop at all.
And the strange thing is that there is not the slightest sound from these people.
These one hundred and fifty or sixty people, eating and drinking silently, really seem very strange.
In the center of the manor was a large table with two large basins, each of which contained a suckling pig the size of a man with a burnt red.
There are only two people seated at this large table. A man was extremely muscular, dressed in a yellow robe, with his thick arms raised, and was holding a hoof as thick as a human leg, munching on it.
The other was dressed in snow-white and emaciated build, with a long, narrow head on his back, and poured red wine from the flask with his mouth.
Situ Nan also saw that in the corner of the manor, there was a tall wooden shelf, on which hung three dead pigs in black robes, the pork belly had been cut open, revealing the internal organs inside, and a section of intestines was exposed. There was a basin underneath, and blood was dripping from it.
The black-robed Situ Nan looked a little familiar, very similar to the clothes of Zhang Yuanbao's officials at the beginning.
This is not a pig at all, it is Liu Zhutou and his party who were brought into Shanshui Village before! Instantly creepy!
For a while, cold sweat broke out in the palm of his hand, and there was a slight tremor in his right hand holding the knife to untie the cow.
At this time, Miao Zhen beside him touched his body again, Situ Nan lowered his head and squinted, and found that the Qingfeng knife on Miao Yuan's waist was pulled out of the scabbard.
"Little ones, bring drinks to a few distinguished guests!"
The strong man in the yellow robe was obviously the leader of these people, and when he saw Tang Cai'er and a few people coming in, he immediately looked up to the sky and laughed. There are still a lot of flesh and blood residues hanging from the beard around the mouth, which is very conspicuous.
A somewhat wooden villager immediately came over with a flask. At this time, all the people who were eating and drinking at the banquet in the audience looked at Situ Nan and the others.
Being stared at by hundreds of people, Situ Nan's expression became even more solemn.
This time, I'm afraid I'm going to fight hard!
Tang Cai'er heard the words of the strong man in the yellow robe, and the knuckles of his right knuckles, which had been holding Yinyue, squeaked, and his eyes widened angrily.
"Toast and don't eat and drink, the little cub of the Demon Division, look for death!"
The yellow-robed man's face changed suddenly, he roared, the hooves in his hands were thrown aside, and the table in front of him was immediately overturned.
"Kill them all!"
Glancing at Lao Pu beside her, Tang Cai'er's face turned pale.
"Li Jing, slaughtered the white clothes for the old lady!"
When the words fell, Tang Cai'er's whole body was full of vitality, a faint silver light shrouded her body, and the silver moon knife in her hand was even brighter and more dazzling. stepped on his feet, like taking off a rabbit, and went straight to the yellow-robed man.
As soon as Tang Cai'er's voice sounded, Situ Nan saw that Li Jing had already swung his sword and followed, and his speed was even a little faster than Tang Cai'er.
And Lao Pu on the side suddenly squatted down, Situ Nan didn't have time to observe, and found a large number of figures in front of him with various weapons, and he was a little nervous at the moment.
Last time, there was only one face of the crow and the woman, and this time there was a black scene on the other side, how could he have ever seen this kind of posture.
Hurriedly clenched the knife tightly, and his life force was stimulated, looking like he was waiting for battle.
"Anan, cut off your head! Otherwise, you won't be able to kill the ghost! ”
Qingfeng was unsheathed, and in the face of hundreds of ghosts, Miao Yu's expression was not as relaxed as usual.
"Whew!"
Suddenly, a tiger roared and Situ Nan's head was buzzed, and a feeling of dizziness came to his head. All the vital energy of the body was immediately activated, and it took two full breaths to recover.
Life force to protect the body, not afraid of demons!
At this time, I found that a tiger more than a foot tall suddenly appeared in the field, surrounded by wind and wind, and there were bursts of red light wrapped around its claws. It looks extremely powerful! At this moment, Tang Cai'er was holding the Silver Moon Knife in her hand, and she had already rushed to the front of the Tiger Demon, and there were four or five headless corpses behind her.
"Death to this king!"
"Scholar-level little demon, dare to be the king!"
One after another silver sword qi swung out from the silver moon knife in Tang Cai'er's hand, but unfortunately the tiger demon's body was extremely sensitive, tossing and turning, avoiding them one by one!
The sharp claws in his hands grabbed Tang Cai'er with a gust of demonic wind.
Situ Nan watched Tang Cai'er and the tiger demon fight, and the fierce human ** battle scene made the butcher's violent factor hidden in the body emerge again. The body rushed forward, and the ox-solving knife was waved, and the ox-solving knife after covering the life force was as sharp as the last time, instantly slicing the neck of a ghost.
At this time, Situ Nan even took the time to glance at Li Jing in the distance.
I saw that at this time, Li Jing jumped into the air with his sword, the blade of the sword pointed downward, and stabbed straight towards the head of the man in white.
"Whew!"
The white-clothed man screamed in his mouth, raised the cane in his hand, blocked Li Jing's sword, and made a "ding" sound.
"It seems that I can only rely on myself!"
There are five people in the sixth team of demon slayers, and Situ Nan also found out, and it is estimated that Tang Caier and Li Jing are the two people who have the highest cultivation. At this time, it seems that the two of them will not be able to solve the battle for a while, and the hundreds of ghosts in this time can only rely on him, Miao Yu, and Lao Pu.
With another wave of the knife in his hand, the silver light flashed, and the firewood knife in the hand of the ghost who was stumbling with his neck cut just now had not yet slashed Situ Nan, and his head fell to the ground.
With the death of this ghost, Situ Nan felt a burst of adrenaline all over his body, which was very similar to his usual feeling of slaughtering cattle and sheep, and he couldn't help but burst into cheers at the moment.
"Come on!"
Miao Zhen approached Situ Nan at this time, just now Situ Nan killed a ghost with two knives, both of them were with knives, so he could naturally see that Situ Nan's knife skills were solid, although there was no discipline, but he couldn't help but praise it.
"Good knife skills!"
Hearing Miao Yu's words, Situ Nan didn't have time to respond at all, so he shared his hands and feet, swung his knife and slashed at the head of a ghost, and kicked a ghost who was approaching with his foot by the way. When he came to his senses, he saw Miao Yu in front of him swing his right hand Qingfeng, and the head of a ghost flew in front of him.
......
"Holy shit!"
Situ Nan only had time to curse secretly, and kept waving the knife in his hand, but more and more ghosts were still approaching, and after a while, the three of them were already surrounded by ghosts.
At this time, Situ Nan discovered the inadequacy of the knife in his hand. With the blessing of life force, although the sharpness of the Ox Knife cannot be compared with Miao Zhen's Qingfeng Knife, there is not much difference in dealing with these ghosts, but it takes more strength and life force, and against these ghosts, you can also chop melons and vegetables!
The original seven-point strength and five-point life force have become today's nine-point strength and ten-point life force, and in a short period of time, there is not much difference.
I feel that before the life power is exhausted, with Miao Zhen and Lao Pu, it should not be difficult to kill these ghosts.
However, now that the ghosts are approaching step by step, Situ Nan has just hacked one to death, so he has to dodge in time. This knife is a bit short, forcing him to have close hand-to-hand combat with the ghost. Therefore, the ghosts on Situ Nan's side are getting closer and closer to him.
Retreating while killing, when Situ Nan killed more than a dozen ghosts, he was already back-to-back with Miao Zhen and Lao Pu.
At this time, with the occasional help of Miao Yu on the side, Situ Nan's slightly strained feeling slowly dissipated.
As time passed, most of the ghosts on the field had been killed by the three of them. The number of ghosts surrounding the three of them has not decreased.
At this moment, there were more than fifty ghosts tightly surrounding the three of them, waving random weapons in their hands.
After turning into ghosts, these villagers who were killed by the tiger demon have a lot more strength, and they can even use subtle demon power, so that these ghosts are invincible when dealing with ordinary people.
"Captain !!"
Hearing Miao Yu's call, Situ Nan hurriedly turned his head to look at Tang Cai'er, only to see that Tang Cai'er was holding the Silver Moon Knife from the ground, getting up with difficulty, and then dodging the tiger tail that would dodge the tiger demon.
The situation suddenly became critical.
"Ahh
With this distraction, Situ Nan only felt that he seemed to see a cold light rushing towards him, and then he only had time to turn sideways, and he felt a pain in his right arm, and he couldn't help but cry out in pain. The knife in his hand almost fell to the ground.
"Lao Tzu has been hit by an arrow!"
There was an arrow stuck in his right arm, and under the stimulation of the severe pain, Situ Nan felt as if his blood was boiling. Hurriedly took the knife with his left hand, slashed the head of a ghost with a single sword, looked up into the distance, and instantly found the hunter holding a tall bow.
"Look for death!"
At that moment, he rushed out of Miao Yu and the others, clenched his knife, and killed the hunter who was sneaking up with his bow.
"Anan, be careful!"
At this time, there were still more than twenty ghosts left, and Miao Yu knew that Situ Nan, who had cultivated to only the late stage of the Mixed Yuan Realm, must not have much life power at this moment, so he hurriedly exclaimed at the moment, and was about to move forward.
"Fatty, come and help, that kid didn't die so easily! There are only two left! ”
Lao Pu suddenly interjected and shouted to Miao Yu, who was about to pull Situ Nan.
Miao Yu found out that after being injured, Situ Nan seemed to be more fierce than at the beginning, although the silver light of the life force on his body had dimmed, but the efficiency of killing ghosts was even higher than at the beginning, and there were only a dozen ghosts in his direction.
A Mixed Yuan Realm life cultivation is so fierce! In addition to sighing, he also temporarily put his mind at ease and protected Lao Pu with peace of mind.
The figure was sensitive, and his right fist smashed a ghost into the air, Lao Pu bent down and put a silver copper coin on the ground, and couldn't help complaining.
"Dealing with these ghosts, Lao Tzu's fist is really a loss!"
"Hurry up, the captain and Li Jing probably won't last long!"
"Don't worry, you can't make a mistake!"
After that, Lao Pu clenched his left hand, stretched out his index finger and middle finger, and said something in his mouth, and a silver light flew out of his finger, and with the direction of his finger, it was submerged into the copper coin.
"One last one is missing!"
At this time, the butcher who was blocking the road before appeared from the group of ghosts, his body flashed red, and his body was suddenly as fast as lightning, knocking away several ghosts who were blocking the way, and slashing at Lao Pu who had not yet gotten up with a pig-killing knife in his hand.
"Be careful!"
Ignoring the iron fork of the ghost in front of him, Miao Yu dodged, knocked into Lao Pu, and waved Qingfeng forward horizontally in his hand.
"Ahh
As soon as Qingfeng used Qingfeng to block the pig-killing knife that was slashing at Lao Pu, Miao Yu suddenly screamed.
Lao Pu, who fell to the ground, looked up, Miao Zhen turned sideways, and used the Qingfeng knife to stop the pig-killing knife that was originally cut at him, and the ghost who missed behind him grinned and inserted an iron fork into Miao Yuan's back.
