Chapter 42: Slaying the Mountain Ghost
"Customer, it's here. The beds are empty. I'll take a new bedding for you later." After the shopkeeper said that, he went out first.
After a while, Xu Xian heard the sound of the shopkeeper outside talking to others. It was very small, but the hearing was different from that of ordinary people. Xu Xian could hear it.
"Husband, why did you let outsiders live in Xiaorou's boudoir? I don't care. If you let him go, Xiaorou just disappeared. Maybe she will come back one day."
"Shh, madam, please keep your mouth shut."
"Do you go or not, if you don't go, I'll go."
"No...Madam, why do you have to lie to yourself? When Xiaorou disappeared that night, blood spilled into the house, and everyone knew that it would be unexpected. That is my daughter, how can I not feel sorry for me? But Xiaorou has already left. If the guest official has no place to settle down, if he encounters an accident, wouldn't it be your and my fault?"
"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..."
The woman sobbed, and after a while, there was no sound.
After a while, the knock on the door sounded, Xu Xian opened the door, and the shopkeeper came in with the bedding.
"Keep, it's too late, so take a break early. Remember, don't go out."
Xu Xian looked at the shopkeeper's departure back and said, "Your father is a good person."
At this moment, Xu Xian stood with his hands behind his back, turned his head to look at the ghost standing in front of the bed.
This is a ghost. Xu Xian discovered it when he entered the house. To be on the safe side, Xu Xian took the initiative to fix the ghost with a fixed body curse.
Xu Xian's immobilization technique is already extremely extraordinary.
First, he has a very high understanding and has a thorough understanding. Second, he has also incorporated some magical mantras from the Ghost King Sutra into it, so he can not only determine people, but also determine ghosts.
Although Xu Xian did not practice the Ghost King Sutra, his comprehending and researching did not lead to his downfall.
This ghost is the remnant soul of a woman. In addition to the location where it appeared, Xu Xian guessed that this was probably Xiaorou, the daughter of the shopkeeper.
Unfortunately, this residual soul is extremely weak. Not to mention harming people, if it is a few days later, it might disappear by itself.
"Since you've encountered it, let's keep in mind this little business."
Xu Xian raised his hand and squeezed out a spiritual energy.
The spiritual energy flowed into the ghost shadow. After a moment, the ghost shadow condensed a lot. It was hazy before, with only the outline and no details. At this moment, it was clearer with the blessing of this spiritual energy.
This is also a method learned from the Ghost King Sutra.
The female ghost's facial features began to appear.
A pale young woman looks like a
Xu Xian withdrew from the immobilization technique, and the female ghost knelt directly on the ground.
"Thank you for the grace of the immortal for the soul-condensing."
Xu Xian's old face turned red.
This female ghost really dares to call her. She is only the seventh level of Qi Refining and is called the Supreme Immortal. She really dares not be called her.
"Just call me Mr. Xu, are you Xiaorou?" Xu Xian asked.
The female ghost nodded.
At this moment, Xu Xian's ears moved, but he heard a shrill scream. His heart jumped and he immediately took out his sword.
"Mr. Xu cannot. That mountain ghost has a very high cultivation level and cannot be matched." The female ghost Xiaorou wanted to stop it, but Xu Xian was faster and rushed out of the door in the blink of an eye and turned into a stream of light and flew up.
In an open space in Yinshui Village, several warriors showed horror on their faces, and their hands holding weapons were trembling.
In front of him was a mountain ghost that was ten feet tall, with an evil ghost face and a bluestone-like skin. At this moment, the mountain ghost was holding a headless corpse of a warrior in his hand. It bit the warrior's head down just now.
Even if a person who is braver encounters this situation, he will be scared.
"Attack it and go down the plate." A warrior shouted, raised his hand to shoot out several darts.
With a few jingles, the dart bounced away as if it hit the iron plate.
One of them used a mixed iron rod, jumped under his feet, and hit the mountain ghost's neck.
This man has a big waist and a round waist, and has great strength. With the blessing of internal force, the mixed iron rod itself has seventy or eighty kilograms. If this stick goes down, even a stone can be smashed.
However, when hitting the mountain ghost, it was a bang, and the iron rod was bent strangely, causing the person with the stick to shatter and fell out with a scream.
Another man pointed out a few star lights in his long sword in his hand and stabbed the mountain ghost at the vital point. However, as soon as he used a sword, the mountain ghost raised his hand and punched it out. With a click, the sword in the warrior's hand shattered directly. The sword blade fragment pierced into the warrior's body, and the latter squirted out a mouthful of blood and fainted.
They never expected this scene before they came.
These young warriors are at best second-rate in the world. Although they are of good origin and have guidance from famous teachers, they are young after all, and they are already in a mess at this moment.
"Brother Xiahou, this mountain ghost skin is as bronze. It is hard to hurt swords and swords, and it is extremely powerful. We are definitely not opponents. Tonight, I am afraid it will be broken here." A young warrior who made the swordsman said to a white swordsman beside him.
The white-clothed swordsman's face was pale than the white-clothed one on his body. He was sweating coldly at this moment: "Everyone, this mountain ghost is invincible, and it acts like a ghost. Now only by escaping separately can he have a chance to survive."
The few remaining people knew that the white-clothed swordsman was right.
They had tried it just now. The martial arts were of no use in front of this mountain ghost. When the sword slashed up, they could only leave a shallow white mark. After a moment of fighting, they were already dead and three injuries. One of them fainted. If they continued to fight, everyone would die here.
If you escape separately, the mountain ghost will chase at most one person, and the others will still have the chance to escape.
"Everyone, no matter who runs out later, remember to inform the master and find first-class masters to eliminate such evil things." The white-clothed swordsman gritted his teeth.
At this moment, the mountain ghost over there smiled: "Run? I have put a blood curse on each of you. I can find it within a hundred miles. With your footsteps, if you can't run ten miles, you will die."
After saying that, he kept laughing.
"Can this mountain ghost actually speak?" The white-clothed swordsman looked shocked.
The others were also scared to take a step back.
"It's not uncommon to speak people's words, and what's even more terrible is still behind. Unfortunately, you guys can't see you. I was practicing here and have no grudges with you, but you guys came to die by themselves, so don't blame me for eating you."
When several warriors heard this, their feet were so scared that they were weak.
Obviously they provoked something extremely terrifying today.
It’s ridiculous that they thought it was a wild beast at first, but they didn’t expect that there were really evil things like mountain ghosts.
At this moment, a cold light flew from a distance, with a fast speed leaving only a shadow in his eyes, and a sound of breaking through the air was hidden in his ears.
The next moment, the mountain ghost screamed, and its jumping arms fell down in response.
When everyone saw this, they were shocked.
What was even more surprising was the mountain ghost.
At this moment, it still had the rampant and ferocious appearance it used to be. Now it has a look of fear on its face.
"A master of the Immortal Sect? Escape quickly..."
After saying that, the mountain ghost should not break his arms, and turned around and ran away.
However, a flying sword was faster. The mountain ghost ran out three steps and was beheaded by the flying sword. His huge head rolled to the ground with a bang. The headless corpse ran out a few steps before falling to the ground.
All this happened so quickly.
The white-clothed swordsman and several young warriors were all staying in place, and the shock in their hearts was indescribable.
"Look, that sword can fly!"
One of them had sharp eyes and pointed at a long sword in the air.
The long sword shone with a cold light under the night sky, as if it was spiritual. It first circled the body of the mountain ghost corpse for a moment, and suddenly stabbed downwards, nailing a black gas that emerged from the mountain ghost to the ground.
In an instant, a ball of spiritual fire emanated from the blade, and a scream came from the black air nailed to the ground. In a moment, the black air was burned completely by the spiritual fire.
