Chapter 31: The Imp in Red
The dense forest of Yunshi Mountain is cold and weird, the temperature difference is very obvious, but it is not possible to light a bonfire, fortunately, the body of the warrior is far better than ordinary people, and the cold resistance is also extremely strong, otherwise ordinary people will fall into various diseases because of the harsh environment even if they are not eaten by demon beasts.
"Be careful, everybody. Liu Qingshi stood at the front of the team, gently twisted a handful of hair on the ground in his hand, and raised his hand in a deep voice and shouted softly to the people behind him.
Everyone tensed at the sight, for the hair was clearly the work of some kind of beast.
After the team continued to advance for an hour, there was no danger, and everyone slowly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the demon beast had moved away from this place.
But Chen Zijing became even more nervous, because he faintly felt that something was "staring" at them! It felt like a hunter looking for a flaw in his prey.
It felt like the calm before a storm! As the team slowly moved forward, the others seemed to gradually relax, while Chen Zijing was secretly competing with this "hunter" hiding in the shadows for endurance!
Another hour passed, and the "hunters" who were secretly waiting for an opportunity finally couldn't hold their breath!
I saw a black shadow suddenly burst out from a big tree on the side!
"Attention everyone!" Liu Qingshi was startled and hurriedly shouted, as soon as this black shadow came out, it was discovered by Chen Zijing, who had been prepared for a long time.
However, this hunter obviously found the wrong opponent, only to see Chen Zijing kick the tip of his toes! his body retreated violently! At the same time, the long sword in his right hand stabbed out suddenly! A set of movements was as fast as lightning!
It turned out that the "hunter" was actually a black giant cheetah! It's just that this cheetah is bigger than the average cheetah, and its appearance is a little deformed, and its body is very long! It makes people feel extremely uncomfortable, and the proportions are a little out of balance, but you can feel the powerful explosive power contained in this animal!
Although Chen Zijing's sword stopped the monster's body, it did not stab the other party, only to see that the cheetah's body flashed slightly, and it dodged the attack of the long sword lightly, and its body was extremely flexible and fast!
"It's a black cloud leopard! Be careful! This beast is very cunning! And it's very fast!" the boss of the Zhang family stood next to him and roared with a frown
The Black Cloud Leopard was obviously surprised that his blow was unsuccessful, and immediately confronted Chen Zijing.
"I'm afraid this beast is at least equivalent to the cultivation of the seventh layer of a martial apprentice......" Chen Zijing observed the other party as he retreated.
The team instantly re-circled, each of them was in formation, Chen Zijing slowly retreated into the middle of the team with a long sword, everyone's eyes were staring at the black cloud leopard, not daring to relax a little.
Because many people in the team have heard of this demon, the scientific name of this beast is Black Cloud Leopard, and there are also warriors who call this thing a ghost beast, which means that this thing is like a ghost, coming and going without a trace, and the hooligan is saying that this thing is very cunning, like ** in general, any trick will be used to treat the prey, and it is even more common to sneak attack the warrior!
Liu Qingshi took the lead in activating, and the long knife in his hand slashed over!
The black cloud leopard's body moved sideways, and at the same time, it scratched Liu Qingshi's shoulder with one claw, forcing Liu Qingshi to quickly roll to the side!
At this time, the Zhang brothers immediately made up for it, and threw out the chains in their hands one left and one right! I hoped to be able to entangle this beast! But still I couldn't succeed, I saw that the monster's body shrank, and its long body rushed out like a spring!
At this time, Gu Nafei and Xiucai had already prepared, Xiucai attacked the lower plate of this animal, and Gu Nafei directly jumped up to attack the opponent's back, and the black clouded leopard could not completely dodge, so he could only try to avoid the vital point!
Although the strength of the black cloud leopard is strong, Chen Zijing's team has too many people, and this animal is extremely cunning, seeing that he has suffered a loss, he will flee without saying a word!
"We can't let him run away! This beast has a great grudge! If we don't kill it, it will always haunt us in the future!"
Liu Qingshi, who was next to him, also knew about the matter, and immediately pounced, and shouted at the same time: "Entangle it! Can't let it run away!"
But at this time, where can they still catch up with each other, and they are about to let this beast slip away! At this time, Chen Zijing suddenly stopped on the escape route of the black cloud leopard early!
"Roar!" The anxious black cloud leopard finally began to be a little frightened, and pounced violently! Chen Zijing also did not show weakness, and punched out, with a strong wind, causing the sand and stones on the ground to fly wildly!
"Bang!" The impact of one man and one beast made an earth-shattering sound! Chen Zijing flew out directly, and the black cloud leopard also flipped a few times! The one who was beaten back! Zhen's mind was dizzy, and everyone hurriedly rushed over when they saw this, surrounding the black cloud leopard!
At this time, the second child of the Zhang family took out a big net from his arms! This big net shone with golden light, and at first glance it was not an ordinary color, and it shook violently towards the black cloud leopard that was entangled by everyone!
"Roar!"
I heard a roar of rage, and the black cloud leopard was covered by a big net! As the beast struggled, the net became tighter and tighter! Everyone went up and down, and it took a lot of effort to finally subdue the beast completely!
"Whew...... I don't know if our luck is good or bad......" After solving the black cloud leopard, Liu Qingshi smiled bitterly and said.
Then he raised his eyes and looked at everyone, and continued: "This time we have encountered a lot of powerful guys, and if one is not good on weekdays, there may be casualties, but fortunately, this time there are thrilling solutions......
Wu Qiang roared arrogantly: "Qingshi, when did you start mother-in-law and mother-in-law! We can get rid of these powerful animals, which shows that our strength is strong enough! God should give us so many prey! Don't always be indecisive!"
Liu Qingshi looked at Wu Qiang and nodded with a smile, but for some reason the uneasiness in his heart became heavier and heavier.
Anything could happen in the forest, and after a few days, everyone gradually discovered a very terrible thing, that is, they actually got lost! And this is an extremely rare thing for a martial artist, and of course it is also a very terrible thing, all the positioning formation disks are actually out of order.
"Brother Liu, we've been in this ghost place for four days in a row, isn't it a ghost hitting the wall! If our martial artist encounters a ghost hitting the wall here, according to legend, it's a bit like ......" Xiucai wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked in a nervous whisper.
Liu Qingshi and Gu Nafei all changed their faces when they heard this!
"Shh......h Don't talk nonsense, that kind of thing is rarely encountered by teams, you don't talk nonsense. Liu Qingshi hurriedly stopped Xiucai and didn't let him continue.
Chen Zijing was extremely curious when she heard a few people talking, what was it that made Liu Qingshi so jealous?
Wu Qiang's temperament was anxious, and when he heard the two of them talking, he immediately asked loudly: "Brother Liu! What kind of legend is Xiucai talking about? Don't talk about it, tell me what happened first, you can discuss it!"
Liu Qingshi glanced at Gu Nafei and Xiucai, hesitated for a moment, nodded and said: "This legend is still heard from other teams, it is said that there was once a demon hunting team in the Yunshi Mountain that encountered a ghost hitting the wall, but the whole team only came back one person, and the others all fell in the dense forest, and the person who escaped back was also greatly injured by Yin Qi, and soon died in Fang City......
"Hiss......"
The other people all took a cold breath when they heard this!
Gu Nafei said with some uneasiness: "It is said that those warriors died in the hands of the resentful spirits here, different from the ordinary dirty things outside, the people who died here are all martial artists, these people originally had a strong vitality, and the soul of the soul who died in Yunshi Mountain could not rest in peace, especially when they were killed by demon beasts, they were full of unwillingness and resentment before death, so it was easy to become a powerful ghost, and then with the increase of strength, they became a kind of monster in Yunshi Mountain, and it was very difficult to deal with." ”
"Boom!"
Just as he was saying this, a terrifying laughter rang out around the dense forest! Gu Nafei immediately grabbed the short coat on Liu Qingshi's body! She trembled with fright from this sudden laughter! No matter how strong a woman is, she is often extremely afraid of this kind of thing, and this kind of thing is not very common in the entire Yunzhou Continent.
"What should I do? What is that?" Gu Nafei trembled and pointed to the faint red light not far away, and the others had already noticed, and their faces all changed color.
I saw a red figure appear in the distance, and this figure gradually leaned over, from far to near, and after being able to see the whole picture clearly, Gu Nafei let out an exclamation of "Ah!"
It was actually a little boy! He was much younger than Chen Zijing, and the male baby had a stiff smile on his face, and he was actually wearing a red dress of a female doll! What was even more terrifying was that his hands and neck were hanging from a tree, with an iron block hanging under his feet, and a few steel nails stuck in his head!
The kid flashed like a phantrum!
"How can there be little ghosts in this forest? Doesn't it mean that only warriors will become ghosts?" Xiucai asked with a panicked look in his eyes, and the weapon in his hand was tightly gripped.
"After the death of a warrior, the ghosts that are transformed by resentment may be in various forms, and they will no longer maintain their original form, and as their resentment increases, their appearance may continue to change!" Liu Qingshi shouted nervously, and the long knife was already held in front of his chest.
At this time, even a martial artist encountered this kind of ghost thing, goosebumps rose all over his body, and a cold air flew back and forth several times from head to toe!
Accompanied by "Boom!" No matter what danger this thing is, everyone can only choose to find a way to defend it, because they can't get out now!
"Try this!"
The Zhang brothers took out a stack of spiritual talismans from their Qiankun bag, one of which was a charm called the purification talisman, and added a lot of sandalwood and other precious spices when drawing the talisman, which had a certain purpose of driving away evil spirits and avoiding evil!
So all kinds of secret charms were pasted around, and everyone hoped that these things would drive away the ghosts.
But obviously it didn't have much effect! The red-clothed imp came to the front in a few flashes, and Xiucai bit his teeth!
As a result, the long sword that pierced the imp's body seemed to be piercing into the water, and I saw that its body emitted ripples like water lines! But it didn't have any actual damage effect at all! And Xiucai's action obviously angered this murderous thing!
"Ah!!h
I saw that it let out a terrible roar!
Xiucai's eyes suddenly widened and he let out a muffled "uh!" snort, his body shook, and he knelt directly on the ground, and then he didn't move.
Everyone was stunned, only to feel a stream of cool air rising from behind the vertebrae! The pores of the whole body exploded! I don't know what happened to Xiucai on the ground now, but obviously the situation is not optimistic!
Wu Qiang's eyes widened after seeing it! He raised his weapon angrily and was about to rush over!
I only heard Chen Zijing shout coldly: "Be careful! Don't go up to die!"
"Don't stop me!" Wu Qiang roared! Where can he still listen to it, after all, his friendship with Xiucai is still not shallow!
At this moment, a loud "Boom!" suddenly came from the distance!
Then there was a brief shaking of the entire Yunshi Mountain! The boy in red was about to continue to pounce, but at this moment it suddenly stopped, with a resentment in its cold eyes, it looked at a few people, and then looked into the distance, obviously hesitated in its eyes, and finally turned around and quickly detoured and left......
Although everyone was a little confused, they were all relieved.
Wu Qiang and Chen Zijing immediately came to Xiucai's body and placed it flat on the ground, and when Chen Zijing touched Xiucai, they felt a little bad!
"It's so cool!" Xiucai's body was like an ice cube, exuding a surprising cold aura, and after probing his snort, he found that Xiucai had no life at this time.
The whole team was silent, this is the first instance of death in this demon hunt, everyone is extremely uncomfortable, the warrior is high on weekdays, admired by thousands of people, but looking back, which one is not alive and stormy?
Although the warriors are accustomed to seeing joys and sorrows, birth, old age, sickness and death, and have experienced countless winds and waves, people always have feelings, and in the face of Xiucai's death, everyone still inevitably feels a little sad about the death of a rabbit and a fox.
Sure enough, after the little ghost left, the ghost hit the wall and disappeared, and the various array disks could be used again, and after a few hours, the team found a hidden cave under a cliff, the cave was not large but relatively dry, so everyone stayed here to rest and adjust.
"Whew...... I don't want to see that kind of ghost thing again in my life!" Gu Nafei said as she lifted her towering chest and took a big breath.
Liu Qingshi patted her shoulder and comforted her: "Don't be afraid, this kind of ghost thing is actually not terrible, it's just that we lack something to exorcise evil spirits, and if our cultivation can reach the level of a martial artist, I heard that we can make the ghost thing materialize and confront it head-on." ”
Chen Zijing's eyes froze after hearing this, and he secretly said in his heart: "It seems that stronger strength is the foundation of life, otherwise when you encounter this kind of disembodied ghost thing in the future, you won't be able to hit the other party, and you will lose your life......"
A few days and nights in the mountains and forests nervously running, this time the team can have a good rest in the cave to adjust, it can be said that it is extremely luxurious and rare, everyone is seizing the time to meditate and rest, the warrior in the outside emergency, is not need to sleep, although it is not comfortable, but the rest effect of meditation is much stronger than the effect of lying down and sleeping.
