Chapter 383: Demon Tiger Skin

After Song Yushan left Fuhu Mountain, he continued his travels.

A few months later, she received a letter from Yin Shi from Linjiang County.

This time, in addition to the senior sister, Hu Fuzi, and the letters from the ghost stewards, there is also one more letter.

There was a faint demonic aura on the letter, similar to Ji Mingyun, who was controlled by the ghost, but it was different.

Half a year ago, after hearing the old monk say that the ghost controlled the man as a tiger, Song Yushan was very surprised, so he wrote a letter back to Linjiang County to Zhao Dahu, asking him about the tiger demon and the ghost, wanting to verify whether what the old monk said was really possible.

This letter was sent by Zhao Dahu.

But now she has personally heard Ji Mingyun, who has recovered half of her human form, talk about her experience and confirm the authenticity of this matter.

So I was in no hurry to read the letter.

She read all the other letters before she opened the letter, and looked at it at a glance.

Looking at it, she frowned.

“…… Controlling ghosts and using them for us is a natural ability that all tiger demons who have eaten people after enlightening their minds will awaken.

As long as the living person is swallowed into the belly, after the person dies in the belly, the soul floats out of the body, and he will be trapped in the tiger's skin, and he will have to obey our orders.

Due to the limited size of the tiger skin, it can trap up to six souls.

These souls are ghosts.

Oni can use the fur of the tiger demon to transform into a living person and act during the day.

If you eat people after that, then the ghost that was originally trapped in the tiger skin will be released by the tiger skin and replaced by a new one.

Therefore, there are often tiger demons who go astray, relying on a stand-in to say that the envoy and the ghost help him prey.

The tiger demon itself can actually be released, but the cost is relatively large, and it is very painful, and it needs to be peeled off and burned with the skin that trapped the ghost.

In the past, there were people of the same clan, who ate people after enlightening their wisdom, but later found that they had gone astray, and they peeled off their own fur and burned them, and released the ghosts to atone for their sins.

The ghosts themselves are untouchable.

So the ghost wants to be free, either a new human soul takes his place in the tiger skin, or someone burns the tiger skin.

If the tiger demon with a ghost dies, but the tiger demon's fur is not burned, or even completely peeled off, then the ghost will still be bound in the tiger skin.

Moreover, such a tiger skin, without the will of the tiger demon, the ghost in the tiger skin will become the owner of the tiger skin.

I once heard the saying that the tiger demon that eats people, the tiger skin is the most evil thing, and can turn people into bloodthirsty demon tigers.

Only flame can completely destroy the skin of the evil demon tiger.

However, people who can withstand tiger skin are not ordinary mortals, and there may not be one in a hundred, which is very rare. ”

What was said in the letter is basically the same as Ji Mingyun's experience.

But there is one thing that makes Song Yushan a little concerned.

It is mentioned many times in the letter, if you want to release the ghost and destroy the harmful tiger skin, you have to burn the tiger skin.

But thinking about it carefully, the old monk never mentioned burning the tiger skin.

What he said at the time was that as long as Ji Mingyun insisted on a vegetarian diet and did not get fishy meat, he could slowly fade the tiger skin and return to his human form.

At the same time, the demon tiger that once harmed people will not appear again.

But it's very likely that the old monk doesn't know about this either?

After all, this matter is not recorded in so many classics that Song Yushan has read, and it should be the secret of the Tiger Demon Clan.

Moreover, Ji Mingyun is one in a hundred people who can resist the skin of the demon tiger, he is relieved, and it is really not certain that there will be a second person like him in the already inaccessible Fuhu Ridge.

However, there are still hidden dangers.

In any case, Song Yushan decided to go back and take a look, since he knew about it, he couldn't let it leave trouble, otherwise he wouldn't be at ease.

Fortunately, at this time, she was still in Jingzhou, not too far from Jiangling County.

Within a few days, she flew back to Fuhu Mountain.

When he arrived near the temple, he saw with his divine sense that Ji Mingyun was helping the monks sweep the floor.

He swept and swept, and the last piece of tiger skin on the back of his hand fell off.

Ji Mingyun touched the back of his smooth hand and was ecstatic: "I'm recovered!" I'm fully recovered! ”

The monks in the temple congratulated him: "Congratulations to the donor!" ”

Ji Mingyun ran to the old monk's room and said happily: "Abbot! I'm recovered! The last bit of tiger skin is also gone! ”

"Very good." The old monk still looks unfazed and kind-eyed.

Ji Mingyun knelt down and kowtowed a few times: "Abbot!" Don't dare to forget the grace of saving your life! The county test is imminent, and now that it has fully recovered, it is necessary to leave immediately.

When I return from the county entrance examination, I will definitely repay you! ”

"Okay." The old monk was still smiling.

Ji Mingyun said goodbye to the old monk, and then went to pack his things.

Song Yushan had already flown over the temple at this time, but she was in no hurry to show up.

As soon as she saw clearly, the piece of tiger skin on Ji Mingyun's body disappeared after it shed off.

She didn't think that everything would be all right if the tiger skin disappeared.

Zhao Dahu's letter repeatedly emphasized that only flames can destroy the skin of the demon tiger and get rid of the evil qi in it.

The tiger skin just disappeared, not burned.

What if it happens again?

Even if there are very few people like Ji Mingyun who can withstand the skin of the demon tiger, what if it appears again?

Isn't the demon tiger "resurrected" again?

The old monk and Ji Mingyun didn't seem to know the inside story, and Song Yushan also had some guesses about the whereabouts of the tiger skin, so he didn't go to the temple to ask the old monk again.

She remembered that when she first arrived at Fuhu Mountain, she had discovered two demonic auras.

One is a cave with a small amount of tiger hair, and the other is Ji Mingyun with a human soul and a tiger body.

At first, she thought that the cave was the cave of the demon tiger, and the tiger hair was the hair of the demon tiger.

Now that I think about it, even the tiger head upstairs in Jiangling County, after a few years, there is very little demonic energy left, how can the fallen tiger hair still have a demonic aura that is so thick that it can be directly detected by her divine sense?

Maybe it wasn't the tiger hair that fell off naturally at all, but a part of the skin of the demon tiger that faded after Ji Mingyun started to eat a vegetarian diet.

Only the skin of the demon tiger that gathers the killing evil qi can many years pass, and there is still such a strong evil qi.

Song Yushan's divine sense probed the cave again, but it was empty.

There are only some remnants of demonic energy in the cave, and the amount of demonic energy left is normal.

The previous tiger fur is gone, and there is no trace of the tiger skin.

But this is more proof of what she has in mind.

In such a deep mountain and old forest, who will take away the tiger hair in the cave!

Unless it wasn't an ordinary tiger fur, but a part of the tiger skin, which had now been taken by the ghost.

Song Yushan took this cave as the center and began to explore the surroundings, looking for traces of ghosts and demon tiger skins.
