Chapter 17: Ghost Head Knife!
Soon, the old village chief took the other half of the young man, took a flat hoe, and escorted the old and young in the village to the next village.
"Everyone be careful, try to keep a group of five or six people, and don't fight against each other."
Near the south of the village in the back mountain, Li An was vigilant against the back mountain with a knife in his hand, and loudly told the young men who stayed behind.
The more than 20 people who stayed, all with firm eyes, holding hoes, forks and other weapons in their hands, lined up in a fairly neat line, and looked vigilantly at the back mountain.
The two old hunters in the village climbed to the top of the big tree, their bows and arrows ready to fire.
In the impression of modern people, most of the ancients were illiterate and must have been very poor in terms of discipline.
In fact, this is a misunderstanding, and in ancient times there was a system of forced labor.
In addition to heavy work such as building city walls and digging canals, in ancient times, conscripts would also serve as soldiers guarding border passes or guarding cities.
During the period of serving as soldiers, they all received simple training, as long as there was a commander to command, issued with weapons, after simple training, the young and strong will form a combat effective army.
For example, more than half of the more than 20 people left behind had served in military service, and even two old hunters had participated in the war.
"An'er, didn't you say that ordinary mortal weapons can't hurt monsters? Can these guys in our hands be useful? ”
Daddy clenched the flat pole in his hand, and asked worriedly while looking at the direction of the back mountain.
The young men who stayed behind also looked at Li An, revealing a trace of worry.
Li An glanced at the flat hoe in everyone's hands and sighed.
"What can I do if it's useless? It's better than empty-handed! ”
The crowd fell silent.
yes, it's better than bare-handed.
"What kind of weapon can deal with youkai?"
An Ang Lee's cousin asked Ang Lee a little unwillingly.
Li An thought for a while, and said with some uncertainty: "As far as I know, it seems that in addition to the magic weapon of subduing demons and eliminating demons, weapons that kill a lot of people can also be used." These weapons kill too much, and they contain powerful evil qi and resentment, and they also have a certain effect on dealing with demons and monsters. ”
"How many weapons do you need to kill?"
Squatting on the roof, vigilant against the sixth uncle in the back mountain, his spirit shook suddenly, and he looked at Li An.
Li An thought for a moment and replied, "At least ten or more people must be killed!" ”
The sixth uncle's bright eyes dimmed.
The short knife on his waist has only killed two people, and it is estimated that it can't hurt the monster.
"Kill more than ten people!"
The father beside Li An pondered for a moment, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said excitedly: "We have it!" ”
Li An's spirit was shocked, and he hurriedly looked at his father.
"We have this weapon at home, why haven't I seen it?"
Dad said excitedly: "Of course you don't know, it was your grandfather's weapon in the army, and he hung it on the wall when he came back." But when you were young, you cried and screamed when you passed the knife, and your grandfather thought that the knife scared you, and wanted to melt it, but he was reluctant to do so, so he hid it in the cellar. ”
As he spoke, Daddy greeted one of Ang Lee's cousins.
"Wait here, I'll go get it with Xiao Liuzi."
After saying that, the two hurried home.
Li An and his entourage also waited expectantly.
After a while, Dad and Ang Lee's cousin ran over with a long wooden box.
"Here, this is it!"
Handing the long box to Li An, the father wiped the sweat from his forehead and introduced: "This is a ghost-headed knife, according to your grandfather, he killed more than ninety people." ”
Li An's eyes widened, "My grandfather used to be so brave!" ”
"!"
Dad rolled his eyes, "If your grandfather is so brave, how can our family still farm in the countryside, your grandfather is an executioner in the army, and he specializes in cutting deserters and prisoners." ”
Ang Lee: (●—●)
Reaching out to open the box, a knife with a straight blade, a slightly slanted tip, three feet and seven inches long, coated with grease, and a silver-gray ghost head knife appeared in front of everyone.
"Shhh
As the box opened, a cold aura gushed out of it.
A few young men who stretched out their heads to look at it couldn't help but take a step back and rubbed their shoulders coldly.
"It's so murderous, this knife seems to have really cut a lot of people."
The sixth uncle, who was standing on the roof, felt the coldness in the air and couldn't help but exclaim.
The other old hunter also nodded cautiously and said to Li An.
"Anzi, this knife is not easy to control, you have to use it carefully!"
Ang Lee naturally understands this truth.
This kind of weapon that kills countless people is very fierce, and once it can't be controlled, it may be controlled by the knife, become a slave of the knife, and become an emotionless killing demon.
Taking a deep breath and slowly exhaling it, Ang Lee raised his mental strength and endurance to the peak, and slowly grabbed the hilt.
The others also looked at Li An, and several cousins subconsciously took a few steps back to the side, for fear that Li An would not be able to control it and hurt them.
"Buzz!"
As soon as Li An's hand touched the handle of the knife, the ghost head knife, which was originally lying in the box without moving, suddenly buzzed.
"Die! Die! Die! ”
A sharp roar came from the knife, shocking the souls of the people around him.
Wisps of red sword qi slowly floated out of the knife, and one by one, the black headless ghosts bound in chains in the knife roared angrily at Li An, who was holding the knife.
"Kill!"
A low roar sounded from Ang Lee's mouth.
When Dad and the others looked at it, wisps of dark red killing aura surged along the hilt of the knife towards Li An's body.
Li An's black and white eyes were also slowly covered by a blood-red aura.
"Oh no, he's controlled by a knife, stay away from him."
Seeing Li An like this, the sixth uncle exclaimed in surprise and hurriedly let everyone disperse.
"An'er!"
The other cousins hurriedly ran away, but the father didn't move half a step, looked at Li An nervously, and shouted loudly, wanting to wake up Li An.
"Brother Fu, stay away from Anzi, be careful that he hurts you."
Seeing that Lian Dad was motionless, the sixth uncle was so anxious that he jumped down from the roof directly, and pulled Daddy to run to the side.
"Sixth, let go of me, that's my son!"
The father, who was dragged to the side by the sixth uncle, struggled hard, desperately trying to snatch the knife from Li An's hand.
"Roar!"
As the blood-red sword qi was stained, Li Anti raised his knife to the sky and let out an angry roar.
"Kill!"
An angry killing cry resounded in the quiet night, Li An was full of anger, holding a ghost head knife, and scanned the surrounding youth without emotion in his eyes.
Qingzhuang, who was seen by Li An's eyes, shivered with fear, and his steps slowly retreated unconsciously.
"Click!"
"Roar!"
Suddenly, a faint cracking sound and a frightened roar rang out from the knife.
The knife that exuded a dark red aura shook suddenly, and the red evil qi that spread on Li An's body quickly returned, and the ghost head knife returned to its original appearance in the blink of an eye.
"Why are you so far away from me?"
Just when the young men were thinking about whether to run away, Li An stuck the knife on the ground and looked at everyone curiously.
"Anko, you... Are you alright? ”
The sixth uncle, who was pulling his father to the side, was stunned, and looked at Li An with some surprise.
Li An grinned, "A few useless cowards, trying to control me is simply wishful thinking." ”
He's a killer.
If a killer is controlled by a weapon, is it still called a killer?
