Chapter 24: The Way of Gods and Ghosts

The blood-red light flashed, and Zhou Li's left arm fell to the ground in response, and the broken place instantly decayed and blackened, and emitted a foul smell, and maggots swam away in the rotten flesh.

Zhou Li looked up at the proprietress who rushed over again, and without saying a word, she forcibly endured the pain and transferred in the field.

At this time, the proprietress suddenly froze in place, milky white gas gushed out from the seven orifices, and her body continued to twist, and finally she couldn't maintain her human form at all.

To the naked eye, the originally graceful beauty has now turned into a large lump of blistered rotten meat, with mucus dripping from the rotten parts, and purple-black maggots wriggling in it.

The water ghost, whose body was several times swollen, stretched out his black tongue and licked the red nails with blood, and roared towards his location.

The supernatural interference and visual interference in the mirror realm are like ornaments.

Zhou Li kept dodging the hair that shot in, and the feeling of being led by the nose made him quite uncomfortable, and he was extremely depressed: "What is wrong, why can she see through my body." ”

With the transformation of the battlefield position.

Soon teleported to the corpse scraper's side, feeling the more humid and cold air around him, Zhou Li somewhat understood how the water ghost positioned his location.

The low-level doppelganger is just an apparition, with no entity in the air, and the water ghost can determine his true location through the damp and cold water vapor.

Zhou Li teleported into mid-air again, and he could find a solution if he knew the reason.

The weird origin in the body was frantically consumed, and the mirror realm changed again, and the originally vague realm boundaries gradually became clear and transparent.

Countless Zhou Li appeared at the same time, they were dressed differently, but their breath, appearance and even the entities in the air were the same, and it was impossible to distinguish the real from the fake just by the water vapor contaminated with supernatural power.

The water ghost looked around with pale eyes and confused, and in her field of vision, tens of thousands of Zhou Li were gritting their teeth and walking towards her.

After hesitating for a moment, the torrent of hair continued to wriggle, wrapping into a huge black ball, firmly protecting the body, and began to quietly move towards the severed arm.

From the beginning, I was attracted by the strange fragrance, and I wanted to eat well, and I couldn't forget my original intention when I was a ghost.

The fragrance emitted by the broken arm surrounded the water ghost, and when she was less than a meter away from the broken arm, she couldn't help but pounce directly.

The strange thing is that Zhou Li just watched quietly from a distance, and did not choose to step forward to stop it.

looked at the corners of his mouth slightly upturned, and turned his head to show a meaningful smile to the guy.

"Click, click"

The water ghost didn't pay attention to this, and still impatiently gnawed on the broken arm, not even letting go of the bone slag.

After eating, his bloody face looked extremely satisfied.

Three seconds later.

A strange and eerie aura emerged from her body, wrapped around her flesh and blood, gradually tightening and compressing.

The whole body is like a Michelin tire, with deep strangulation marks, and these strangulation marks are still multiplying.

Every strand of her soul transmitted pain, and torrents of black hair broke up on their own, piercing screams echoing through the realm.

Poisoning what you eat, but the wisdom of war that has been passed down by our ancestors for thousands of years is not immoral and easy to use.

What's more, the ingredients in the river fresh wontons are not less than those he ordered.

This wave is called the exchange of courtesies.

The stunned young man suddenly became agitated, his clear pupils became cloudy, and he lived up to the agility of the young man, and the rope stick in his hand turned into a swimming snake again, binding the water ghosts.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhou Li clenched his right hand into a fist, wrapped half of the strange origin in his body around it, and then jumped up and blasted out at her with all his strength.

"Bang..."

With the sound of fists slamming on the ground, the water-filled meat foam splashed everywhere, and the rancid smell became more and more intense.

One punch kill, although some means were used, it could also be seen that the water ghost was an assassin with high attack and low defense.

In the big pit filled with flesh and blood, two black gases slowly rose, and Zhou Li instinctively swallowed them into his abdomen, and his left arm grew out again after swimming all over his body.

Esoteriosis Level: Medium +1.

The delicate young man watched the water ghost being executed, his body trembled again, and his cloudy eyes became clear, as if something had left his body.

He lowered his head and carefully checked his rope, and breathed a sigh of relief after not finding any damage: "Fortunately, I took back the corpse rope in time, if something goes wrong, it will be uncomfortable to go back." ”

Then he looked up at Zhou Li, to some extent, he was his savior.

So he stepped forward, clasped his fists and saluted: "Wu Ping'an, the corpse collector in the Yellow River, I don't know who Your Excellency is?" ”

Looking at the unusual fist salute, Zhou Li replied in the same way: "Contemptible people scatter Zhou Li. ”

Wu Ping'an looked at Zhou Li's fist salute, and there was an indescribable awkwardness in his heart, if he guessed correctly, he also used the etiquette of the Yellow River corpse fisher, but there were at least three fingering errors here.

After hearing Zhou Li say that he was a casual cultivator, he said very enthusiastically: "Brother Zhou, are you interested in joining us to collect corpses, the state certifies a legal sect, and the monthly allowance is 30,000 yuan." ”

Well, Zhou Li looked at Wu Ping'an in front of him puzzled, why did it sound so much like a pyramid scheme.

"Thank you Mr. Wu for your kindness, I should be regarded as a inheritor, although I haven't seen Master until now." Zhou Li refused, and at the same time picked something that could be said, and briefly explained the reason why he didn't join.

After listening, he actually felt empathy for this Wu Ping'an, and he complained: "Brother Zhou, we are the same hard-working people, and my master also gave me a booklet, so I slipped out to drink flower wine." ”

"It's been two and a half years since I drank it, and when I came back, I was forced to shove more than 200 IOUs, and all the money I earned over the years was in it."

At this time, he remembered something again, and spoke again: "Brother Zhou, you can call me Lao Wu directly, Mr. Wu listens to strange stings." ”

Corpse diggers, a profession that sounds mysterious, how do you feel like they are all a bunch of fools now.

After Wu Ping'an finished speaking, Zhou Li then asked: "Wu Xian..., since you know that the wonton stall is not opened by a person, why do you still want to go?" ”

Looking at his puzzled expression, Wu Ping'an pulled over the two chairs, and after the two sat down, he began to answer Zhou Li's question: "This all starts with the exercises I practice, and there are currently two mainstream cultivation paths. ”

"It's Shinto and Oni, respectively."

"Shinto is represented by Taoism, Buddhism, Confucianism, and so on."

"They pay attention to cultivating their own bodies through the spiritual opportunities of heaven and earth. But this road is extremely demanding on talent, and if you are not talented enough, you can't comprehend the mysteries of heaven and earth, and you can't get started in this life. ”

"If the times are peaceful, then Shinto will be prosperous. But Yanhuang has been up and down for 5,000 years, and there are several years of peace and prosperity. ”

"If the world is uneven, those demons, monsters, and ghosts will wreak havoc in the world, and ordinary people will walk out of the ghost path between life and death in order to survive and protect themselves."

"Ghost Dao, as the name suggests, is to use yin qi to enter the cultivation path, also known as the ghost gate."

"Most of the ghost cultivators are engaged in dealing with the dead, such as: paper shop, corpse bearer, corpse collector, coffin shop, head shaver, executioner, ferryman, suona craftsman, mortuary, ......"

"In our cultivation world, we call Shinto the Sunny Path, and the Ghost Path a single-plank bridge."

"Because the single-plank bridge is easy to overturn, the yin qi is dead popularity. The living melt into death, and once something goes wrong, the mild ones will suffer from serious illnesses and disasters in their lives, and the serious ones will be torn apart on the spot. ”

"It's really divided, it's not an exaggeration."

Zhou Li asked again, "So you ate that bowl of dead man's rice to extract yin qi and cultivate?" ”

Wu Ping'an said with a smile: "That's not all, I haven't had anything to do since I came to Jianghai City a few days ago, so I took a task on the forum."

"In addition, eating the dead man's food is also to be able to wrap the yin qi around himself and disguise himself as a water ghost."

"It's really fast to practice with yin qi, but every time you merge, it's a line between life and death. We mainly use yin qi to get started, and the practice after the introduction is still to absorb aura. ”

"My inheritance is the Yellow River corpse fisher, no one knows how many ghosts and ghosts there are in the Yellow River, if they are entangled underwater, how many lives are not enough, so disguising as a water ghost is a must in its inheritance."

After Wu Ping'an finished speaking, Zhou Li had a basic understanding of the cultivation world of this world, remembering the seamless disguise of the water ghost before, he couldn't help but ask curiously: "I see, old Wu, what is the matter with the disguise of the water ghost before, if she wasn't too anxious, I really didn't find anything wrong." ”

"People can use death to disguise themselves as powerful ghosts, and powerful ghosts can also use vitality to disguise themselves as ordinary people, judging from the details of her disguise, at least devouring the vitality of the people of a village." Wu Ping'ankou explained.

Golden red sunset.

Zhou Li said to Wu Ping'an: "Thank you, Brother Wu, for answering my questions." ”

"That dead man's stomach can't be filled, I don't know if you still have an appetite for Lao Wu, I'll invite you to a big restaurant to have a good time."

"That's embarrassing." Wu Ping'an said shyly with a red face.

It's the first time in history that someone has invited me to dinner, and even if I eat at a roadside stall with Master, I settle the account by myself.

Thinking of this, Wu Ping'an was incompetent and furious in his heart.

Zhou Li led him to the commercial street, chatting as he walked: "Old Wu, is there a unified realm standard in the cultivation world?" ”

Wu Ping'an walked on the bustling street, looked at the miniskirts coming and going, and replied intently: "There was no one before." ”

"But after entering the new society, the exchanges between various sects are increasing day by day, and it is troublesome to have no unified standards."

"The government originally wanted to name it directly after the Daomen realm, but now the aura is depleted and Shinto is in decline. And there are a large number of people who fish for ghosts, in order to take care of the emotions on both sides at the same time. ”

Then the official position of the Yin Division was slightly modified and used as a unified standard. I don't have the talent, and I'm still staying in the Japanese travel realm. ”

"The strength of the Riyou Realm is so strong, so what does the black impermanence that Li Wei wrote on the file represent? It stands to reason that black and white impermanence is much more famous than day and night travel, and their strength is completely unworthy of this title. Zhou Li thought so in his heart.

Then he stopped and looked at a pair of bright red dancing shoes in front of him.
