Chapter Fifty-Seven: Finally Falling to Ashes
According to Drum Elder, the Evil Ghost is a monster that does not exist at all in any account. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
They are very rare, they have no fixed shape, appearance, and no fixed place of appearance, but they have one thing in common, they are very close to humans, and they will not attack humans casually.
It's different from other ghosts, the reason is simple, they all retain a sense of social relationship with people, and they also want to return to the circle of human life.
In ghost stories, there is often a kind of ghost standing in a cold corner, begging for money and not seeing clearly, they do not hurt people, they do not violate people, and they meet their requirements, and they will get some kind of unexpected reward.
This is a type of "filthy evil ghost".
"But where are the bodies of those six?"
"I was eaten by these two...... old man said.
Hao Chen instantly felt a chill down his spine, and ate it, the two of them ate themselves? He looked back at the short man in the cage, in addition to his appearance, he also had the outline of a human shape, and this thing couldn't be compared with a "person".
Little Stone's hand was already lowered, and he looked directly at the humanoid monster in the cage, not moving or speaking. The village chief tilted his head at this time, his eyes were closed, and his lips trembled.
Yes, anyone who knows such a desperate and terrifying thing will feel sad, not to mention their relatives and friends, counting their age, the dead are about the same age as the village chief or Shi Liu.
But fortunately, these villagers only know that the monster is the one who has lost it, and they don't know how the monster was formed, otherwise ......
"So, Hao Wazi, no matter which great immortal you are, please, just let it go......" Shi Liu squatted on the ground and couldn't cry.
"yes, let it go. ”
"My man is also there......"
"Let's go......"
"You guys!" the little stone...... Hey......" Shi Zhu stood behind and stared at the pleading villagers, stomped his foot, and walked over to drag the small stone back.
"Hao Wazi, I won't hide it from you, Shi Laoliu's younger brother is also among the six people who can't find the corpse. The village chief took a deep breath, patted Shi Liu, who was squatting on the ground, and helped him up.
"Hey......" Shi Lao Liu sighed heavily.
No wonder he didn't want to participate in the sacrifice, no wonder the stone pillar said that he had a weak heart, no wonder he knelt down and begged himself, it turned out that those two monsters also had a part of his younger brother in their bodies.
As long as they're around, maybe he's there.
But Hao Chen still hasn't figured it out, if the stone pile is an unconscious habitual behavior, he can take away the small stone and suck the soul, but it may not be. Coupled with the fact that the latter has obviously opened up its mind, this is not something that can be done by sucking the soul of a child of a few years old or teenager.
Even the soul of the "apostate" can only maintain its appearance without a shell, and cannot communicate with people normally, let alone these ordinary peasants.
There must be someone behind this, who is manipulating all this.
Hao Chen didn't say these thoughts, but this monster that opened his mind couldn't be released casually.
"This blame can't be put out. Hao Chen shook his head, he understood the pity of these people, but if the monster was released, it would be uncontrollable, and if something happened again, it would not be as simple as it is now.
"Why?" Shi Liu still had tears in his eyes, and his voice was already a little hoarse.
"Monsters are monsters, do you want your relatives to live in this way?" Hao Chen frowned, he understood the pain of losing a loved one, but some things could be avoided without "pain".
The villagers looked at each other, and they all bowed their heads and did not speak. Shi Liu closed his eyes and looked back at the restless monster in the cage, with mixed emotions on his face.
"You know what this thing is called?" "Filthy Devil"! Do you know how it came to be? Hey...... I understand your feelings, the ancestors said that it is safe to enter the earth, and you must also know that this stone tomb was built by them for themselves, but have you ever thought about why?" Hao Chen walked to the side of the stone pile and pointed to the pile of stone tombs that he had seen the monsters pile up with his own eyes in the middle of the night last night.
Still no one spoke.
"When someone touches the mound once, they will restore the mound again and steal the animals to sacrifice them. He kicked the two captured pheasant carcasses again.
"Last time, Uncle Shi moved, and the little stones were sucked away from their souls, and this time I touched them, and they wanted to sneak into the village in the middle of the night! What about the next time? Whose children's souls will be used to feed their grievances?"
"Let it be buried in the ground, even for the sake of the other children in the village, for the sake of the six missing people?!" After speaking, Hao Chen stood next to him and did not move.
Some of the villagers shook their heads, some sighed, and the few people who had advocated releasing the monster before had already hid their faces and wept.
"But what are you going to do with this!" The village chief's expression was heavy, he also knew that this monster could not be kept, but in the face of those bereaved family members, especially Shi Lao Liu, who lived next door, he couldn't bear it in every way.
Hao Chen stood up again and walked in front of everyone.
"If you believe me, give me this monster, everyone go back first, I will bring back the things left after this monster dies, and hand them over to the village chief, so that you can rest assured, after all, this place is not safe. It was already dawn, and the monster was more restless than before, Hao Chen understood that this was because it was afraid of the sun, and wanted to hide but had nowhere to go.
The villagers looked at each other, and slowly someone began to leave, Hao Chen's heart finally fell to the ground, but Shi Liu, Shi Zhu, and Xiao Shi refused to go, Shi Liu had to watch how he dealt with this monster, and Shi Zhu took the small stone, hoping that when the monster died, the soul of the little stone would return to normal.
"Impossible, this soul has been sucked clean, integrated into the body of this monster, and cannot be separated. Hao Chen told the father and son according to the original words of the drum elder, and the stone pillar sighed and finally took the little stone away.
But Shi Liuzhen made Hao Chen uncomfortable.
"I just want to look at it and watch it die. Shi Liu seemed to lose his mind, and found a shade to sit on the ground and just didn't leave.
"Uncle, I don't dare to let him out here. Hao Chen was so anxious that he wanted to go crazy now.
"I've come to save people, I've asked for a gentleman, now let me watch it die, I'll hide away so I won't disturb you. Shi Liu stood up again, walked out about a hundred meters, and just watched.
Maybe it doesn't take a hundred meters to clean up this guy.
Hao Chen cleaned up his mood, held Zi Yan in his hand again, and stood in front of the iron cage, his eyes were sharp, and the flame of the blade soared instantly.
At the same time, the iron cage disappeared, and the monster was immediately liberated, Hao Chen rushed over in one step and slashed at the monster's neck. The blade dug deep into his arm and slashed off in one fell swoop.
But at the same time, Hao Chen was surprised to find that this time the short monster was not in love with fighting, it used the part that could grow to firmly protect its neck, and kept dodging to find the defense line that Hao Chen could break through, as if it was going straight to the direction of Shi Liu behind him.
Just know it's not good!
Hao Chen frowned, the blade was faster, and it went straight into the monster's body, but just as his blade stabbed into his chest, the monster suddenly strode to the side with the blade, and the blade cut half of its body horizontally, splashing Hao Chen's body with black blood.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the monster also ignored his injuries and strode towards Shi Liu.
Hao Chen immediately raised his knife to chase after him, ready to cut off its head from behind, but just as he was close to Shi Liu's body, the monster suddenly stopped, and his legs bent as if he was about to kneel straight down.
The knife fell, the head fell, and the monster's body maintained this kneeling position, instantly turning into a pile of black powder.
At the same time, at the first sound of ding, Hao Chen received a system prompt that his body cultivation had finally reached the Fifth Heaven.
