Chapter 91: Nightfall
The barbarian sneezed vigorously, jumped up from the ground, and sneezed one after another before he said aggrievedly: "How has it become so cold on this ground!"
Before the words could be spoken, a fierce wind blew by. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Info then heard a high-pitched dog barking, listening to the direction, obviously coming from Cold Spring Village.
Suddenly, the barking of the dog stopped abruptly. There was silence for a moment, and suddenly all the dogs in the village seemed to be alarmed, and they all let out a shocking barking sound. Then mixed with the chirping of chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep, it was obvious that the livestock of the whole village were alarmed by something.
However, before the bark lasted for a moment, most of it disappeared, and the rest of the dog's barking changed from growling to wailing, and then began to whimper. Before it was time for a stick of incense, after the last sad cow moo, Hanquan Village fell completely silent.
Cheng Ziming's face sank like water, quietly listening to the whimpering wind, and secretly thought: This is the village chief and Blacksmith Zhao who woke up and began to move around. The souls of these two people have turned into powerful ghosts, and the physical body must be difficult to support, and only by absorbing the vitality of living creatures can the physical body remain immortal. Judging from the movement just now, the livestock in the whole village are only afraid that they have been sucked out of yang energy and died, but fortunately, Liniang and Liu Carpenter's father and son left early in the morning, otherwise they are now the same as his family's Ah Hua, and there is no possibility of being spared.
He secretly rejoiced: Fortunately, some time ago, he made up all kinds of cold knowledge in the immortal cultivation world, otherwise he would definitely be confused and confused now. Since there are no living creatures in the village, the next target of these two powerful ghosts is probably me and this barbarian. Looks like it's going to be another tough battle tonight!
The temperature around him plummeted, the mist churned in the cold spring, and the white mist spread from the well platform.
The fire flashed in Cheng Ziming's hand, and there was an extra torch. He threw the torch on the ground, took out a large handful of wood from the storage bracelet, and lit a bonfire on the ground. The firelight dispelled the thick darkness, but it could not drive away the heavy cold.
There was no moonlight, no starlight, and the campfire struggled to burn in the cold, but it still only illuminated a small area nearby. There was silence in the darkness, as if some monster would pop up at any moment.
Cheng Ziming quietly faced the darkness, he knew that there were indeed two monsters waiting for an opportunity. But after a long time, the fires were filled with firewood twice, and the darkness was still dark, silent, except for the occasional whining of gusts of wind.
The brute's eyes were wide at first, and he stood upright, vigilantly guarding his surroundings. Slowly, he began to slacken. When adding firewood to the bonfire for the first time, the barbarian simply sat by the fire, stretched out his hand to roast the fire, and muttered: "Maybe they are afraid, after all, we are also immortal cultivators, which two little ghosts can provoke!"
The flame burns, bringing a comfortable temperature. The barbarian nagged for a moment, and his spirit gradually weakened, and he actually took a nap. By the time he added firewood to the campfire a second time, he was already snoring. It's not that the barbarian is not vigilant, it's just that he has lived in the warm jungle since he was a child, and the docile climate of the demon capital is a little cold for the barbarian, not to mention this cold small world. The cold makes people sleepy, and this is especially true for the barbarians.
Cheng Ziming faced the darkness quietly, he knew that those two powerful ghosts would definitely come back tonight. It is true that immortal cultivators have mana in their bodies, and they are not easy targets to provoke. However, it is precisely because the immortal cultivator has mana in his body, and his physical body is much more vigorous than the vitality and yang energy of mortals and livestock, which is exactly the "great tonic" that those two powerful ghosts need.
If you miss Cheng Ziming and Tumanzi, the two "big supplements", I am afraid that the flesh of the two powerful ghosts, the village chief and Zhao Blacksmith, will be difficult to keep. In addition, the powerful ghosts themselves also have some Taoism, and they have the strength to fight with immortal cultivators. Therefore, this kind of opportunity of "seeking wealth and danger", the village chief and Zhao Blacksmith will not give up easily.
The flame gradually weakened, Cheng Ziming took out the firewood, and refilled the firewood for the third time. Suddenly, he turned around, his brows furrowed, and looked out of the pavilion.
"Whoosh!" A spear flew straight towards Cheng Ziming. The spear was a white lacquered wooden pole, with a white iron head, shining with cold light, carrying the sound of the wind, and the speed was extremely fast, and it was close in a blink of an eye.
Cheng Ziming seemed to be frozen, and he didn't move.
"Ding!" A faint light lit up on the iron fence, and the spear hit the air between the two iron railings, but it seemed to poke at an invisible wall, and the spearhead snapped off with a "bang" and fell to the ground.
At the same time, a white feathered arrow came from the other direction, and the arrow went straight at the sleeping barbarian. But like the spear, the arrow struck between the gaps in the iron bar, but it could not pass through it, and was ricocheted out.
"Hmph!" Cheng Ziming said in his heart: After waiting for so long, just waiting for such a clumsy temptation? The spears and feathered arrows were shoddy, and at first glance they were inferior goods taken from the hunters in the village. Actually using such inferior weapons to test the Dao of immortal cultivators, I really wondered if the village chief and blacksmith Zhao were stupid after they became ghosts.
Cheng Ziming knew in his heart that there was a formation engraved on the iron fence, and all objects, as long as they were not the spirit of the soul, could not pass through the iron railing. Therefore, the inferior spears and feathered arrows were blocked by the iron fence formation, and it was impossible to shoot in. But even if there was no iron fence formation, such a colorful weapon would not be able to cause any damage to the immortal cultivators. Cheng Ziming was agile, and the spear flew so slowly, he could obviously easily dodge it. And the rough skin and thick flesh of the barbarian man obviously poked at him with that arrow, but he couldn't pierce his thick skin.
Although this temptation was clumsy, Cheng Ziming did not slack off in the slightest. The village chief and blacksmith Zhao waited patiently in the dark for a long time, and they knew that they would use weapons to test the reality of the Cold Spring Pavilion first, which showed that these two powerful ghosts were much more mentally sound than ordinary ghosts.
The reason why the immortal cultivators were killed by the Yin Spirits the night before was because there were too many Yin Spirits, and there were hundreds or even thousands of them. In the case that there was no time to cast the spell, the body was hit by countless yin spirits one after another, and the soul of the immortal cultivator would be knocked out of the body. And the body is occupied by different yin spirits in turn, which will also quickly consume the yang energy in the body. When the yang energy is depleted, the body will die. After death, the soul that has left the body can only become a ghost.
And the village chief and blacksmith Zhao are just two powerful ghosts, and they obviously have no advantage in numbers, so it is no wonder that they will be cautious. However, this also shows that these two powerful ghosts know how to analyze offensive strategies, and their minds are not simple, and they are indeed more difficult than the ghosts.
Cheng Ziming was more concerned that the spear and feather arrow were fired at the same time, but they came from different directions. It shows that these two ghosts have united, which is obviously more alarming. Originally, there was still some hope, hoping that the two ghosts would fight first. But judging from this temptation, instead of hating each other, the two ghosts have united. I don't know how they communicate.
As he pondered, another spear flew out of the darkness without a sound. The spear was similar in size to the previous one, and it was also white, and it was facing Cheng Ziming's chest.
At the same time, another white feather arrow, also from different directions, flew towards the barbarian.
"Again?" Cheng Ziming frowned, and just wanted to scold "brain dead", but suddenly became alert. I saw that although the spear and feather arrows were as expected, they were "snapped" and fell by the formation on the iron railing, but the sharp spearhead and sharp arrows passed through the gap in the iron fence without resistance, and rushed like white lightning.
