Lin Mo still remembers clearly the image of Shen He wearing a Taoist robe and holding a golden sword.
Especially since the opponent doesn't need to wear a bone mask, and doesn't even borrow any nightmare power, but still has superhuman speed and physical strength, which is a bit of cheating.
Lin Mo didn't understand at that time, and Shen He didn't explain it. But now when he met Old Man Wang, Lin Mo suddenly understood.
Could it be that they are all treasures passed down by our ancestors
So, aren't all those Taoist temples, monasteries and shrines filled with masters
This speculation made Lin Mo a little confused, but after thinking about it, he realized that this idea was too idealistic.
Eating vegetarian food, chanting Buddhist scriptures, and reciting the Dao are not necessarily sincere, and they are not all for fame and fortune. At any time, the truly capable are only a minority.
Expert Shen He said that this type of creature should be a rare species.
Otherwise, the tutorial given by the expert group of the General Administration would not be how to borrow the power of nightmares, but instead would give you a bunch of Buddhist and Taoist scriptures. The scene is hilarious just thinking about it.
Next, have a detailed chat with Old Man Wang.
Just as Lin Mo thought, Old Man Wang was not interested in those people either.
"There are masters in every field, not necessarily in Buddhism or Taoism. In my early years, I knew a tomb robber. Although he was not good-looking, he was a real master. I was in funerals, so sometimes I had to deal with these people. It was he who taught me some methods, so I am not afraid of ghosts and gods."
After a while, Old Man Wang told Lin Mo that he had to go for an inspection.
There are several families with more than a dozen people who come here every night. He leads them to a house to rest at a fixed time and place.
Although this place is not big, there are many ghosts and wild beasts. Old Man Wang killed a few of them before, but many of them escaped and were wandering around.
Occasionally, monsters would walk out of the black fog, so Old Man Wang was very busy.
Lin Mo also wanted to help, so he just went along.
It's a good opportunity to see Old Man Wang's skills. In the previous duel, the outcome was decided in the blink of an eye, so no one knows how good of a fighter Old Man Wang is.
This time, he finally gained some experience.
It’s really amazing.
Old Man Wang has three kinds of weapons.
One is a pipe, which is almost the same size as an iron rod when turned; the other is a pair of scissors, which is full of evil spirits. Once it cuts something, it can never be put back together again, just like the head of the headless brother. From now on, it can only walk around holding its head; the last one is a coffin nail.
According to Old Man Wang, when he woke up from that chaos, he had these three things on his body.
Especially the coffin nails, which he usually doesn't use.
He will only take it out when he encounters a few ferocious evil spirits. Once it is nailed by the coffin nails, there is basically no hope of saving it. It is the most evil thing.
Lin Mo already knew that the village was called Shangwang Village. The projection area only polluted a small part of the mountain. In fact, most of the households in the village lived at the foot of the mountain.
Because the projection area is small, it is not difficult to patrol, as it is mostly in mountains and forests.
There were seven or eight wolves in the forest. Old Man Wang had killed several of them before, and the rest didn't dare to approach, so they were no longer a threat.
In addition to the wolf, there are two evil spirits.
One was nailed to death by Old Man Wang’s coffin nails, and another was hiding somewhere unknown.
It has always been easier to avoid an open attack than to guard against an arrow from the dark. Although Old Man Wang is very powerful, he was caught by a slippery loach and could not find a good way to deal with it for a while.
It can only be passive defense.
They would hang paper figures in every household to confuse the evil spirit.
Once the opponent steps into the trap, he can kill him immediately.
But the evil ghost was also cunning and didn't fall for it several times, so Old Man Wang could only patrol around from time to time, prepare defenses and see if he could catch that guy.
But this time he was lucky and met Lin Mo.
Lin Mo asked Old Man Wang to play the Pen Fairy, which stunned Old Man Wang.
"This girl actually knows the art of fortune-telling?"
“Isn’t that great!”
Lin Mo looked very proud.
Before, it was always Old Man Wang who was talking nonsense and preaching in front of him, but this time it was the other party's turn to be surprised.
Knowing where the evil ghost was hiding, Lin Mo saw with his own eyes Old Man Wang taking away the evil ghost's breath and soul, and then cutting it in half with a pair of scissors.
The evil ghost was not immortal either, and turned into two pools of blood on the spot.
Back in the yard, Lin Mo practiced origami figures even more attentively.
This time he was so focused that he forgot about time.
While he was thinking about the problem, he suddenly heard the alarm ringing, and he woke up immediately under the stimulation of the safety electric current.
"It's morning already?"
Over there, Team Leader Liu, Fatty, and several members of the action team also woke up.
They had different expressions.
Some looked confused, like Team Leader Liu, who was drunk most of the time and looked scared whenever he recalled some things.
Some of them looked pale and had not yet recovered from their fear.
As for Officer Jiang Ming, his face was slightly red, and no one knew what he did with the female ghost in the well in his dream later, and he refused to say anything when asked.
This night's 'actual combat' really improved everyone's abilities a lot.
Even the most timid people, after they calmed down, felt that they had gained a lot.
The nightmare world is horrible, dark, and mixed with despair and death, but as long as you change your perspective and adjust your mindset, you will find that it is not a dead place.
As long as you are careful and adapt to the rules of that world, you can still survive.
And it's not just about surviving, you also have to be able to protect yourself.
Most things in this world are led by a master, and the practice is up to the individual. As for subsequent matters, Lin Mo will naturally not interfere, and let Fatty and Team Leader Liu explore and research on their own.
Of course, among all people, the one who grows the fastest is the cat.
During breakfast, she came over excitedly, first looked at Lin Mo who was studying origami with a piece of white paper, and then asked curiously: "What are you doing?"
Lin Mo didn't even raise his head and asked, "Is Building 5 done?"
When talking about this, Maomao looked very proud.
“Although there are still two floors left to go up, I have completed the three floors up and the seven floors down.”
This is indeed something to be proud of.
Lin Mo was also quite surprised. After asking carefully, he realized that the cat had gone through some dangers in order to clear the three floors above.
The most dangerous thing is to encounter an evil spirit.
This evil spirit was hiding in the cupboard, as if it had been chopped into meat paste by someone. When it came from a distance, it was like a puddle of mud flowing over, very disgusting.
Unfortunately, this evil ghost was extremely ferocious, with sharp fangs in his flesh and blood, which seemed to be poisonous and could not be touched.
Fortunately, after putting on the Broken Bone Mask, Maomao was as agile as a cat and was not touched by the other party.
Finally, with the help of the curtain ghost, the evil ghost wrapped up the mass of flesh and blood and digested it for two hours. The flesh and blood was completely digested by the curtain ghost.
In this way, the strength of the curtain ghost is also improved. Not only can it wrap the enemy, but it can also grow some sharp thorns inside, which are poisonous. No matter whether it is a murderer or an evil spirit, most of them cannot resist this soul poison.
Thanks to this, the cat can conquer three floors in one night.
Lin Mo folded the paper figurine in his hand, looked up and asked, "Is there no one who is easy to talk to and willing to make friends with us?"
Maomao stuck out her tongue: "I forgot to ask."
…
Lin Mo didn't go out all day, and his room was full of white papers.
The blank paper in the real world is different from the blank paper in the nightmare world.
There are already hundreds of paper figures on the table.
These were all folded by Lin Mo.
But these paper figures are really dead objects and cannot move.
Things like paper figures moving around like that could only happen in a nightmare world.
From morning to night, Lin Mo has folded hundreds of paper figures.
If someone accidentally enters this room at this time, he will definitely be stunned by the room full of paper figures and feel terrified.
After all, there are hundreds of paper people placed in the room, some of which have eyes painted on their faces, and they are staring at you. Who wouldn’t be afraid
Until the end, even Lin Mo was confused.
Old man Wang said that he had been folding paper figures all his life and that was why he had the ability to control paper figures.
So this quantity must be sufficient.
Lin Mo had no previous experience, so he could only cram at the last minute and try to find the feeling through repeated practice.
What's more, he can fold quickly and well now, just like a master craftsman.
At night, Lin Mo entered the nightmare world again, and he was still in the Lvyuan community.
He wanted to find Old Man Wang to continue origami.
Unlike last night, this time Lin Mo was familiar with the route. He entered the black fog in the same direction, walked more than 250 steps, and arrived at the projection area of Shangwang Village.
Speaking of which, there is of course Shangwang Village in the real world, but it is more than 100 kilometers away from Migrant Bird City.
The direction is right, but the distance is wrong.
In the black fog, Lin Mo only took 250 steps, but he actually crossed a distance of 100 kilometers in the real world. This was truly incredible.
According to this calculation, if the direction of Qiandu Commercial Plaza is calculated accurately, it will take less than thirty steps to enter the corresponding projection area.
This is not just a blind guess, you have to try it to know.
Lin Mo was not in a hurry.
The most important thing right now is to pester Old Man Wang to learn more skills. After all, Old Man Wang is really capable.
When we arrived at Shangwang Village, Old Man Wang had been waiting at the door for a long time.
The other party had been dead for seven years and finally woke up from the nightmare world. Although he was protecting several families, the other party feared him like a ghost or a god and would kneel down when they met him. Naturally, he was not someone with whom he could talk or chat.
With Lin Mo, Old Man Wang no longer felt as lonely as before.
This day I was looking forward to Lin Mo coming earlier.
Hearing that Lin Mo did nothing all day but practiced origami, Old Man Wang nodded repeatedly: "Diligence is the foundation of learning. Okay, okay, fold one for me to see."
Lin Mo didn't waste any words. He took the white paper from Old Man Wang's desk and folded a lifelike paper figure in just a few strokes.
After folding it, throw it on the ground.
The next moment, a gust of cold wind blew over, the paper grew longer with the wind, black smoke billowed, and when I looked again, it turned into a person the same size as an ordinary person, but without eyes, nose, mouth or ears on its face, looking extremely weird.
At this moment, he was half-kneeling on the ground, as if waiting for his master to give orders.
Lin Mo was surprised.
Old Man Wang was even more surprised. He glanced at Lin Mo, then at the life-size paper figurine, and said, "I didn't teach you this. What went wrong with your practice?"
