Chapter 197: Slippery ghost

Views:

"It should be around here."

Su Ziyu walked along the rugged road. The place where the mountain boy was entrenched was called Shijuan Mountain. I had never heard of it before. It was probably just an unknown hilltop.

I didn’t encounter any monsters along the way, maybe because it wasn’t dark yet.

Su Ziyu was not in a hurry, so he just found a hillside to sit and drink some wine. After the sky gradually darkened, he walked towards Ishijuan Mountain. This mountain boy has been very arrogant recently. At least a dozen merchants have been killed before and after, and the merchants' goods are missing. The wealthy families of the Three Rivers Kingdom invited some onmyojis to deal with it, but it is a pity that the onmyojis among the people are too weak. Please Everyone who comes never returns.

During the Nara period, Fuso nationalized onmyoji, and ordinary people were strictly prohibited from owning onmyodo books such as Kawatu Rakushu Taiyi. Even in the Heian period, the truly powerful onmyojis came from the public sect.

As Su Ziyu walked, he smelled the smell of alcohol drifting in the wind.

"This mountain boy is very similar to the Shuten boy." Su Ziyu smiled and flew up, and a house built halfway up the mountain appeared in his sight.

It is said that the Shuten-dōji of Mt. Tanba are very good at drinking, and you can smell a faint smell of alcohol at night.

I didn't expect it to be the same here.

Su Ziyu casually put on the invisibility cloak, and then gradually approached the house with the help of psychic flight.

The house seemed to have been built recently and was a bit crude. There were some will-o'-wisps floating outside, and a loud noise was heard before getting closer. There was a bonfire burning inside the house, and the smell of barbecue could be heard in the distance. There were shadows in the firelight, and all that could be seen were some mountain spirits and ghosts. Sitting at the head was a tall man, estimated to be more than three meters tall. , has a green face and fangs, thick body hair, looks like an ape, has a single horn on its head, and only one eye on its forehead. There is a huge stone hammer beside it, which may weigh several hundred kilograms.

"Contamination found!"

As soon as they got close to here, the space-time monitor system reacted.

Su Ziyu frowned and looked at the things roasting on the fire, with a slight discomfort on his expression. Then he pulled out the meteorite from his waist with a clang, and fell from the sky under the cover of night. His figure did not even fall to the ground, relying on his spiritual power to fly. The power slid quickly, and then the meteor in his hand turned into a stream of light and flashed past the fire.

These monsters all have some special methods, and Su Ziyu doesn't dare to be too confident. The attack is the fatal one, so first kill the minions nearby.

"Get 1 point of source power!"

"Get 1 point of source power!"

As streaks of blood appeared, the iron rat next to the campfire was stabbed to death by Su Ziyu with a sword. Next to him was a fat humanoid toad, whose head was also split open by his sword.

boom!

The seemingly drunk mountain boy reacted very quickly. Almost as soon as Su Ziyu took action, he seemed to be aware of it, and quickly picked up the stone hammer next to him, and then saw its skin turn into With a rock-like color, a stone wall suddenly rose up from the ground, protecting it behind it.

This is not an ordinary mountain boy. Ordinary mountain boys are not as tall and burly as it is. Its crimson pupils are like monsters. Previously, it was holding a human leg in its hand and feasting on it.

boom!

The huge stone hammer set off a gust of wind and smashed it down. A pit with a diameter of more than three meters deep instantly appeared on the ground. If Su Ziyu hadn't reacted very quickly, he would have been smashed into a pulp.

"This monster is so powerful!" Su Ziyu was shocked, and after appearing, he retreated.

The mountain boy in front of him had strange powers and seemed to be able to control rocks. After he discovered Su Ziyu's figure, he immediately chased after him with a stone hammer, shouting: "Don't let him run away! Again Someone came here to die!”

Seven or eight mountain spirits and ghosts ran out after him.

But what surprised them was that the fish didn't run away, but stood outside the door waiting for them to come out.

— "Lightning strike!"

Boom!

In the crackling light, a stunning bolt of lightning fell from the sky.

The mountain boy reacted very quickly, as if he wanted to dodge, but no matter how fast it was, it could not catch lightning. In an instant, he was struck by lightning, and his whole body looked scorched black.

"Leifa?!" the mountain boy said in shock.

The ability of psychic lightning also has some inconveniences. For example, it is difficult for Su Ziyu to use it inside a house. Lightning strikes and lightning storms must be in open places because they require the energy of nature. If lightning strikes are used inside a house, the effect may be very poor.

— "Time accelerates!"

After sustaining a lightning strike from Su Ziyu, the mountain boy in front of him seemed to be seriously injured. It seemed to be a lot shorter, and its feet had already escaped into the soil. It seemed that it was trying to use something similar to the soil. The ability to escape and escape.

How could Su Ziyu let him get his wish? As everything around him gradually stopped, his figure flashed past and directly chopped off the Shantong's head in a sharp sword light.

I don’t know if it was his illusion. After Su Ziyu discovered that the time acceleration had increased to LV6, he really had the illusion that the world had stopped at that moment. The original picture was even slower frame by frame, and the whole person seemed to It is in a world that is close to static.

"Get 5 points of source power!"

"Get 1 point of source power!"

"Get 1 point of source power!"

When Su Ziyu's figure reappeared, he was already behind the mountain boy. He slowly put away the meteor, and behind him, the mountain boy's headless body collapsed.

I have really become a lot stronger!

Also, the monster harvest in this world is quite large. A mountain boy can actually provide source power comparable to that of a super aberration. Is it because the monsters themselves are supernatural beings

A mini-BOSS and four elite monsters.

Su Ziyu easily gained 9 points of source power, but the difficulty of the battle felt much lower than in other worlds. Whether it was in the wasteland world or the world of the demon hunter, monsters that could provide so many source points were quite impressive. Hard to kill. No matter whether they are super aberrations or advanced vampires, they can't be killed with just one sword like the mountain boy in front of them.

This mountain boy has an amazing and special power, but if he can't beat Su Ziyu, no matter how strong he is, it will be useless.

On the one hand, Su Ziyu's strength has improved, but on the other hand, the monsters in this world don't seem to have the tenacious vitality of super mutants or advanced vampires. These mountain spirits can be killed by cutting off their heads and stabbing them into the heart. Maybe they have some special abilities, but ordinary warriors also have the same chance to kill them.

"Looks like I have to walk around Fuso." Su Ziyu shook his head and walked into the house in front of him.

It was dirty, smelly and disgusting inside.

There was a large amount of goods piled up in the corner, as well as some gold and silver jewelry. There were human skeletons on the ground. It looked a bit miserable. Su Ziyu just looked at it and walked out.

He used his telekinesis to ignite a fire that quickly engulfed everything in sight.

He has no shortage of gold, silver and jewelry, and ordinary goods are useless. These monsters seem to be very poor, and they don't even have any decent rare items. Sure enough, the monsters in the countryside are not as rich as the monsters in Kyoto.

Tonight's harvest was okay.

It has been a long time since Su Ziyu gained so much source power so easily.

To be honest, although this mountain boy is at the BOSS level, the danger level is about the same as the ghost girls in the Witcher world. Unfortunately, the number is slightly less. It would be great if there were a few more.

After a fire burned down the mountain boy's lair, Su Ziyu was ready to leave for Edo.

He is not planning to go to the Three Rivers Country to receive the reward, and he is not interested in the rewards offered by ordinary people. He just treats it as doing good deeds without leaving a name.

A breeze blew.

Not long after Su Ziyu left, a bald old man in rich clothes appeared on Ishijuan Mountain. He walked along by himself and soon came to the collapsed house.

"Bah!"

After the bald old man glanced at the corpses of monsters around him, his expression instantly became serious and he murmured: "Is he so powerful?"

All monsters are killed in one hit!

Even the mountain boy didn't let Su Ziyu use his second sword. The bald old man glanced at the extremely smooth broken neck and said solemnly: "Even if Ampei Qingming comes here, I'm afraid he can't do it so easily, right?"

Speaking of this, the bald old man couldn't help but fell into deep thought, as if thinking about something.

"Alas." After a while, he sighed softly, walked over, took the mountain boy's head, and put it aside with the body. Then, a wisp of blue flame popped out, and the flame quickly The ground swallowed up the corpses of those monsters and burned them to a pile of ashes in the blink of an eye.

Monsters harm people, and people kill monsters.

Although Slippery Ghost was once the leader of monsters, he only protected those weak monsters who did not harm others. If monsters who broke this precept were killed, the most he could do was help collect the corpses when passing by.

"Tapir! Are you there?" The slippery ghost took two steps and whispered.

There was no response from all around.

But after a while, a lazy voice sounded in Slippery's mind: "Why are you calling me? Do you have any interesting nightmares?"

There was still nothing around, but there seemed to be a little more.

"Where does this person come from? Do you know?" The slippery ghost asked in a low voice.

"I don't know." The lazy voice sounded in his mind again, seeming a little impatient and said: "Although I came from the Middle Earth, I don't know the monks over there."

"Swordsmanship is so good!"

"Maybe he is Lu Chunyang's disciple."

Lu Chunyang

Hearing Tapir's words, Slippery Ghost couldn't help but be startled and hesitated: "Really?"

If he really was that disciple, there might be hope.

"I don't know! You're just guessing!" Tapir said with a nonchalant look: "If you want to know, just ask Gu Huoniao in Maple Leaf Forest. She sneaked back during the Tang Dynasty, but was later captured by someone else. Called back."

Hearing what the other party said, the slippery ghost couldn't help but shrink his neck.

Although he was once the leader of monsters, that was only limited to local monsters in Fuso. He usually would not provoke those cross-river dragons that came from the middle of the earth.

The bird in Maple Leaf Forest is famous for its bad temper.

It's a pity that not many people can beat her, and the sly ghost is not willing to meet this big monster.

"I'm going to eat if it's okay." Tapir's voice came, muttering: "There hasn't been anything delicious lately, and the nightmares those people have are too boring."

Upon hearing this, the slippery ghost quickly said: "Wait a minute!"

"What are you doing?" Tapir asked in a somewhat impatient voice.

The slippery ghost walked in place for a while, and then said in a deep voice: "That person tried his best to release Qing Ji. Can we use his hands to clear this hidden danger?"

Kiyohime

Hearing what the slippery ghost said, there was a hint of fear in Tapir's voice, and he whispered: "You are crazy! Isn't that crazy woman running out yet?"

"Why are we provoking her when we have nothing to do?"

"Even if Qingji is released, they will be the first to suffer."

"She went crazy but her relatives didn't recognize her!"

The slippery ghost's expression was quite solemn, and he said slowly: "What I'm worried about is not Qinghime, but the monster sealed in Mount Fuji."

"Don't you know how Qing Ji turned into a monster?"

"Do you think I don't know that you once tried to eat Qing Ji's nightmare, and ended up being seriously injured and almost burned to charcoal?"

Tapir couldn't help but be silent for a while after hearing this.

Then, it seemed a little embarrassed and said: "I sympathize with her at the beginning. Our monsters in Middle-earth are different from you, and they are also humane."

"Bah! Are you expressing sympathy? You are just greedy!" The slippery ghost snorted coldly: "Don't forget who saved you and helped you clean up the mess."

Tapir hesitated for a moment and said softly: "What do you want to do?"

"I can tell you!"

"That woman is really a lunatic! I will never go into her dream again!"

The slippery ghost thought for a moment and then said: "Let's wait and see."

"If he plans to go to Mount Fuji, he will most likely meet Kiyohime. If there is a chance, we will give it a try."

Tapir's voice sounded: "Okay."

"But Qing Ji's Seven Emotions Fire is really powerful!"

“Excessive love breeds hate.”

"Insane thoughts turn into demons."

"If she goes crazy, the two of us may not be able to stop her!"

The slippery ghost was silent after hearing this, and after a moment he said: "After all, we have to give it a try. While the nine-tailed fox is still in Kyoto, let's get rid of Qingji's trouble first."

"Did Qingji really turn into a monster because of it?" Tapir asked cautiously.

Hearing this, the slippery ghost asked: "Then do you think a mortal woman can really hate out of love, become a demon out of obsession, and turn into a big monster in a blink of an eye?"

"And it's a big monster with the head of a human and the body of a snake!"

"If it escapes, no one will have a good time."

Tapir must have believed it, but he still said stubbornly: "Who said there is no such thing? Isn't it the Qingxing Lantern in Kyoto?"

"She loves weird stories so much."

"Finally, when the Hyakumonogatari is completed, I will become a great monster."

The slippery ghost snorted and said: "Qing Xing Deng is different, she is..."

"never mind."

"I won't tell you so much. Qing Xingdeng is also secretly watching this person. She gave him all the Hundred Monogatari."

Tapir also snorted and said, "Forget it if you don't tell me."

"I am going to eat!"

… … …

My tooth hurts so much that I can't sleep. Just get up and code. None today. I'll go to the hospital to see my teeth later and have the second wisdom tooth removed.

Ying Ying Ying! I'm so pitiful!
