Chapter 70: A Strange Village
"Such a powerful magic weapon as the Ten Thousand Souls Demon Thirst Banner is actually thrown away. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoThis woman's behavior is too unpredictable. ”
Looking at the Ten Thousand Souls Demon Thirst Banner thrown on the ground, Lin Tian was a little speechless.
Shaking his head, Lin Tian stepped forward to pick up the magic flag on the ground. As soon as I got my hand, an extremely familiar feeling came from my hand.
The Ten Thousand Souls Demon Thirst Banner was an extremely evil thing in the eyes of decent people, but it didn't matter to Lin Tian. He himself is the Nine Demon Emperor, and there is a magic word in his name alone. It's just a magic flag, and Lin Tian didn't look at it hundreds of thousands of years ago.
The reason why it is called the Demon Banner is because it can refine the soul into a demon. But in fact, it can be changed, to put it bluntly, it depends on the formation in the flag. If the formations that convert souls into demonic energy are changed, then the puppets will be made, not the demons. That way, using it won't be the target of public criticism. It's just that there aren't many people who know this method, and Lin Tian is one of them.
Looking at the two palm-sized Ten Thousand Souls Demon Thirst Flags on his hands, with red edges on a black background, Lin Tian probed a trace of spiritual energy into it. It was found that several formations inside were broken, but they were not serious.
"With such a powerful small faction as the Quanzhen Sect, even the head of the sect may not be able to understand the usefulness of its formation. This magic flag was put into the Quanzhen faction, but it was wasted. ”
While investigating the damaged formation in the Ten Thousand Souls Demon Thirst Banner, Lin Tian said secretly in his heart.
Lin Tian was able to repair the damaged formation, but his current strength was not enough. Only after the foundation building period has been reached, can you try. And the same is true of the formation in his Mixed Yuan Sword, which is powerless with Lin Tian's current cultivation alone.
After putting away the magic flag, Lin Tian took advantage of the dark night and high wind to return to Qingmang Town. Originally, he wanted to take advantage of the darkness to hurry more, but he was afraid that if he encountered a Quanzhen Sect disciple searching outside, it would be difficult to explain.
The reason why I went to Tianjimen to participate in the exchange meeting was because of a rumor.
It is rumored that Danfan participated in the exchange meeting of Tianji Gate, and the disciples who came back have increased their cultivation by several levels. Anyway, now that Lin Tian was idle, he wanted to see what methods they had used to improve the disciples who had gone there.
Early the next morning, Lin Tian left Qingmang Town early and marched in the direction of Tianji Gate.
Due to the proximity to the town, there are roads along the way. There was a constant flow of pedestrians, with the occasional horse-drawn carriage passing through.
It was more than a hundred miles away from the next town, and it would not be possible to reach it in a day according to Lin Tian's speed. In the evening, Lin Tian quickened his pace.
Shortly after the sun set, Lin Tian found a village at a small intersection. The village is small and has a population of a few dozen families, and some of the houses are lit up.
When I came to a house, I found that the door of the yard was locked.
"Anyone?"
Coming to the gate of the courtyard, Lin Tian shouted inside.
If you can't find an inn in the wild, you can only borrow a farmhouse. Lin Tian has some silver on his body, and he will leave some silver after he finishes living.
But what he didn't expect was that as soon as Lin Tian's words fell, the light in the room disappeared suddenly, and it was obvious that someone blew out the oil lamp.
"Maybe it's because this family is inconvenient. ”
Shaking his head, Lin Tian walked towards the next family.
Not everyone likes to let outsiders live in their homes, this Lin Tian understands. Just like even if it is a monk, not all people will be fed. Even though Lin Tian was a cultivator at the fifth level of the Qi Condensation Period, it was not easy for him to forcibly enter the people's homes.
Although Lin Tian was known as the Nine Demon Emperor, it was just a title. That's because Lin Tian was very strong in that life, but all those who offended him were killed, so he got such a name. But this does not mean that Lin Tian has demonic nature, in the final analysis, he is still a relatively upright person.
Coming to the courtyard of the second house with lights on, Lin Tian frowned, the gate of this courtyard was also tightly locked by several wooden stakes.
"Why do the people of this village love to lock the courtyard door so much?"
Looking at the closed courtyard gate, Lin Tian was a little surprised.
In general, most of the people in the village are simple and kind. Moreover, the villagers live, and the courtyard door is basically not closed.
And this village is different, along the way Lin Tian found that whether the lights are on or not, the gate of the courtyard is locked.
"Could it be that there are more thieves in this area?"
There was no other explanation, Lin Tian could only think so.
"Anyone, please?"
At the door of the courtyard of the second house, Lin Tian shouted again.
"Bang ......"
Same as the first one, when Lin Tian's voice just fell, the lights in the house went out. At the same time, there was a heavy sound at the door of the back room, as if something had been pressed against the door.
"No, I have to try again, I can't stay outside at night. ”
Shaking his head, Lin Tian said secretly in his heart.
This time, Lin Tian did not try to go door-to-door, but walked around the village.
After turning around twice, Lin Tian finally stopped at the gate of a house's courtyard.
"Looking at the family, it should look like an old man lives, and the old man should be easier to talk. ”
Glancing at the scene in the courtyard, Lin Tian said secretly in his heart.
A lot of vegetables are grown in the yard, and a lot of poultry is raised. The most rare thing is that the decimal places next to the waves in the yard are trimmed neatly, and only the old people can have time to do such work, and the careful Lin Tian decided to try it in this house.
"Excuse me, anyone? I want to borrow a night. ”
Patting the courtyard door, Lin Tian said loudly.
Sure enough, just as Lin Tian imagined, when Lin Tian finished shouting, the lights in the house were not extinguished, and Lin Tian heard footsteps coming from the house inside.
The door of the inner room opened a small crack, and after a while, the door was opened, and an old man with gray hair came out.
When he came to the gate of the courtyard, the old man looked at Lin Tian for a long time before opening the door of the courtyard. After explaining his intentions, the old man invited him into the house.
Lin Tian, who entered the house, saw that although the furniture in the house was a little dilapidated, it was very clean, and it was obvious that the old man was a hardworking person.
There was also an old lady in the house, who was the old man's wife.
"Uncle, I knocked on the courtyard doors of several houses just now, and they turned off the lights in the house as soon as they heard the sound, is there any reason for this?"
As a result, the bowl of water handed by the old man, Lin Tian couldn't help but ask.
It was precisely because the scene that happened before was a little weird that Lin Tiancai asked this question.
"Alas, don't mention it. Seven children were lost in the village for seven days in a row, all in the night. If I hadn't seen you as an honest person, and we had no children under our knees, I wouldn't have opened the door for you. ”
With a sigh, the old man spoke.
