Chapter 65: The Village of Ghosts
Li Qingyun, who looked like a peasant man, went down the mountain path and came to the village gate of the small village.
The whole village is not very large, only a few houses are scattered in the village, and the small roads between the villages are empty with no pedestrians in sight. Li Qingyun opened his throat and shouted towards the village: "There is a foot-walking merchant below, passing through your village, and I want to spend the night, I don't know if it's okay?"
No one in the village responded, only the smoke from the house slowly drifted out of the chimney, and there was a slight aroma of food, which made Li Qingyun, who had not eaten human dishes for many years, move his index fingers.
Li Qingyun shouted many times to no avail, so he had no choice but to give up. I lamented that in the world, there is no basic trust between people? I am not dressed like this now, and I am not some kind of vicious gangsters and robbers.
Li Qingyun decided to knock on the door and ask, but he didn't believe that he could still eat the closed door. There was a knock on the door of the village, but no one opened the door for it. Li Qingyun was confused in his heart, and under the activation of the listening technique, the sound of pedestrians walking in the house came into his ears.
The door opened, and an old peasant woman staggered from inside the door with a cane with a dragon's head, raised a pair of dim eyes and looked at Li Qingyun carefully, and said, "Young man, we don't have much surplus food in this village, so you might as well change places to spend the night." ”
Li Qingyun was about to speak, when a young man in the room with a bloody kitchen knife in his hand hurried out of the kitchen and rudely pulled the old woman aside.
The young man had a smile on his face, and put the bloody kitchen knife behind him: "Little brother, don't mind, my mother just cherishes money." I was just slaughtering sheep in the kitchen, and I heard you knocking on the door, so I didn't hurry over.
My name is Xue Yingren, and I don't know my brother's surname, where he comes from, and where he is going?"
Li Qingyun was already suspicious in his heart, although the man in front of him was smiling, he looked kind. But he treated his mother rudely before, judging them like two people. Li Qingyun decided to stay and observe this strange village inside and out.
"I am Li Qingyun, a businessman in this area, and I have no fixed place to live. I also hope that eldest brother, you can let me stay overnight, and the money will not be lost to your family. ”
Xue Yingren patted his chest, welcomed Li Qingyun into the house, brought a bright red recliner and said, "How can you ask for your money, little brother, it's not easy for you to do business."
Rest assured to live tonight, just kill sheep at home, and my daughter-in-law will cook a few good dishes tonight for my little brother to taste. ”
Li Qingyun contained the spiritual power in the thighs, and after forming a protective layer of spiritual power on the chaise longue, he sat down safely, clasped his fists and said, "Then it is better to be respectful than to obey your fate." Thank you Brother Xue for your help. ”
The old woman on the side saw Li Qingyun sitting on the recliner with gloomy eyes, and couldn't help sighing and said, "Evil, evil." Then he was pulled into the back kitchen by Xue Yingren, and there was no sound.
At night, Li Qingyun's table was full of delicacies from the mountains and seas, delicacies, and every dish was full of color, flavor, and flavor.
Xue Yingren led his daughter-in-law, a young woman with a rather beautiful appearance, and introduced: "Brother Li, this is my wife's bad chaff, she is not very good, but this cooking skill is indeed famous far and wide, you can try it quickly." ”
After hearing this, Li Qingyun picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks, dipped it in the thick black sauce dish in front of him, and sent it to his mouth. The old woman sitting at the end of the table looked at Li Qingyun and stopped talking, but finally turned into a deep sigh and lowered her head under Xue Yingren's stern gaze.
"It's really a rare delicacy in the world! I have never tasted such a delicacy in all the places I have traveled! My sister-in-law's cooking skills are truly wonderful. ”
The dishes on the table gradually decreased under Li Qingyun's gobbling up, and the plates with grease stains were piled up high in front of Li Qingyun. Seeing Li Qingyun like this, Xue Yingren's eyes gradually revealed a bit of ruthlessness, and the kitchen knife hidden behind him suddenly appeared.
"Pour it on, idiot. As Xue Yingren's words landed, Li Qingyun's head tilted, he fell on the table, his eyes were closed, and he seemed to have completely fainted, and the overturned plate fell to the ground and cracked.
Xue Yingren looked at the old woman with a fierce look, and said fiercely: "Old woman, don't send him to the demolition house and lock him up." When the adults come, we have another good harvest.
And if you deliberately stop us from doing anything, we won't be able to save your granddaughter. ”
The old woman didn't dare to respond, came to Li Qingyun's side, took out a rope to tie him up, and dragged Li Qingyun all the way into the firewood room. The old woman looked at Li Qingyun and sighed again and again: "If you are told to go, you will not go, and now you have lost your life in vain." Oh, what a sin!"
With the closure of the chaimen, Li Qingyun reopened his eyes, and sure enough, there was something wrong with this village. A wisp of green light swirled around his fingers, slid over the hidden storage ring in his hand, and all the dishes on the table were poured to the ground.
In order to deceive Xue Yingren and the others, Li Qingyun didn't have time to check the raw materials of the dishes, so he had to use the storage ring to cooperate with his spiritual power first, and pour all these dishes into the storage ring. Li Qingyun used his spiritual power at this moment, picked up a piece of meat on the ground, looked at it carefully, and suddenly became angry in his heart.
This piece of meat is actually made of human flesh!
Li Qingyun was furious in his heart, but he didn't leave immediately, the adults that Xue Ying said before, according to the time, should have arrived. This so-called adult should be behind these bloody cases.
There was a sound outside the door of the firewood room, and Xue Yingren's voice was flattering: "My lord, I have caught a good product today, and I will definitely make my adult happy." ”
Li Qingyun hurriedly swept away the dishes on the ground and put them into the storage ring, his eyes were closed, and he was ready to wait for the rabbit to see who was behind the scenes.
The firewood room opened, and although Li Qingyu's eyes were closed, his divine sense quietly extended out. Xue Yingren, who walked into the door, looked hideous and terrifying at the moment, and a claw mark directly lifted his Heavenly Spirit Cover, and countless blood-colored worms crawled in his brain, looking extremely terrifying.
There was a blood-colored humanoid ghost figure standing next to Xue Yingren, and the ghost shadow was shrouded in layers of blood mist, looking down on it. The blood-colored ghost shadow exuded a thick evil aura around its body, which made Li Qingyun feel familiar, this turned out to be the breath of a blood demon.
"Good baby, it's time to eat. ”
The blood mist on the blood-colored ghost's body was like a spiritual intelligence, and bursts of laughter rang out like the cry of a jackdaw, resounding through the night sky. The blood mist swooped towards Li Qingyun, enveloping him, and there was a soul-pulling force coming from the blood mist, wanting to extract all of Li Qingyun's three souls and six spirits from his body.
The chaotic blue lotus in his body suddenly shook violently, and the chaotic qi spread all over Li Qingyun's body, blocking the blood mist and making it difficult to invade. Countless golden lights bloomed from Li Qingyun's body in an instant, and the golden light pierced the firewood house, illuminating the night sky of the village like day.
Under the exclamation of the blood-colored ghost, the ropes on Li Qingyun's body broke one by one, turning into a dazzling golden light, and he came to the ghost in the blink of an eye. The golden palm gripped the ghost's throat.
"Surprised, surprised, surprised?"
Xue Yingren had never seen such a scene, and the ghost lord who he admired and feared was subdued in a single breath, unable to move, and was stunned.
The blood-colored ghost said with difficulty, "Who are you? How dare you come to obstruct us. Let me go, and I'll let you go on your own.
Otherwise, this is the place where you are angry!"
Li Qingyun didn't answer, and his powerful divine sense found that at this moment, ghosts were constantly coming out of the ground in the entire village, screaming in the direction where Li Qingyun was.
Ghosts and screams. At this moment, the firewood room was densely filled with blood-colored ghosts, and they opened their scarlet eyes one after another, with an inextinguishable greed and violence in their eyes.
"Hehe, are you scared by our strength? The blood-colored ghost who was strangled by Li Qingyun saw that Li Qingyun didn't make a sound, but mocked.
"Noise!" The golden light in Li Qingyun's hand instantly skyrocketed, and the rich golden light completely enveloped the blood-colored ghost. The terrifying force was enough to destroy the golden cracking stone, and with a twist of the wrist, the blood-colored ghost shadow was already lifeless.
The blood mist on the blood-colored ghost's body gradually dissipated, revealing its true face, which turned out to be a mortal with a hollowed-out head, and a wriggling blood worm crawling slowly in the skull.
With a snap, this blood worm was trampled to death by Li Qingyun. Then he looked at the many ghosts around him who were ready to move, and shouted: "Innocent golden body, now!"
The phantom of a golden giant stood horizontally behind Li Qingyun, and the strong golden light shone so strongly that Xue Yingren, who was hiding on the side, couldn't open his eyes.
The golden giant condensed a long blade of spiritual energy in his hand, and when the sword fell, countless red blood flowers bloomed in the air. A large number of blood-colored ghosts let out a mournful roar and landed on the ground, revealing the prototype of the blood-colored worm.
The golden giant summoned by the unsullied golden body rushed between them, as if they had come out of the desolation of the ancient sacred, and the momentum was monstrous, and the blood-colored ghosts of the entire village were wiped out with a knife. In the end, only the corpse of the blood-colored worm was left in front of the firewood house.
Li Qingyun raised the chaotic green flame in his hand, and a green flame spark fell to the ground, turning the blood-colored worm corpses in the place into ashes, and the remnants of the villagers flew out of the firelight, bowed to Li Qingyun and thanked him, and drifted away.
"Brother Xue, what are you doing hiding here? Little brother, I still have a lot of things I want to ask you about and talk about. Xue Yingren, who was hiding behind the stone grinding in the firewood room, fought up and down with two rows of teeth, looking at Li Qingyun who was smiling in front of him, and he was terrified to the extreme.
"I say, I say, I say everything. Knowing everything, saying everything. Don't kill me, I can't leave my daughter-in-law. ”
The previous golden light had already alarmed the old woman and Xue Yingren's wife, and they broke into the firewood room one after another at this moment. The old woman's face was shocked, and she crawled on her knees and walked up from the ground, shouting in her mouth: "I beg the immortals to save the old granddaughter, the old body is willing to suffer from the Infernal Hell." ”
Xue Yingren's wife showed a fierce light, her delicate face was also cracked, and a small blood-colored insect crawled unhindered among the flesh and blood on her face, opening her arms and blocking Xue Yingren's body.
