Chapter 70 Seventy: The world is gradually turning into a ghost (please vote for me!)
At night.
The two brothers drove the carriage to a small stone forest on a hillside.
You are not allowed to enter the woods. Do not enter any woods.
Dahong lifted a boulder weighing several tons with force, revealing a hollow cave. There was also a mountain spring and stream next to it, which was very convenient.
His horse was not a night-scaled horse, and its endurance was not that strong. After running for a day, it was time to rest. After releasing the horse, feeding him water and food, he drove him into the cave.
The carriage is parked outside and covered with vines and weeds. As long as you don't come closer, you won't notice the problem and will mistake it for an ordinary small stone bag.
Tonight I have to share a cave with horses.
The sky quickly became dark, and a cold air that could not be felt near the city quickly swept across the wilderness.
This feels somewhat similar to Kuroshio, but not so exaggerated.
This is the difference between wilderness and human cities.
Some people always firmly believe that the wilderness is directly connected to Jiuyou.
Some people also say that with the resurgence of the Kuroshio, the world is no longer clean.
Dahong lit a bonfire in the cave, and the cold air subsided.
Li Sui'an had nothing to do. He fetched a bucket of water, boiled it, and prepared to soak his feet. They stared at each other dumbfounded.
"Brothers Hong, please understand. I have some strange problems and I have to soak my feet at night. Well... you can think of it as treating the disease by soaking your feet with this herb." He made up a reason casually before letting him go.
The two of them looked slightly relaxed.
"I see, but it's not very safe at night. Let us brothers take turns keeping watch tonight. You can have a good rest."
Li Sui'an thanked him for his kindness. It was a long night, suitable for drinking, so he took out the drunken spring breeze and shared it with the two of them.
Maintaining good health is a lifelong matter.
He soaked the feet very carefully, and even pressed the acupuncture points on the soles of his feet. The foot soaking was not over until the foot soaking experience was complete.
If necessary, it is best to bring a bed with you next time you go out.
The space of an empty nest is already large enough, how about bringing a movable cabin?
There is a large bed inside, making it more comfortable to rest at night.
Tsk~
At this time, the sky in the distance is an endless black void. Through the gaps in the cave, you can see a few stars in the sky and a bright moon hanging high. Under the moonlight, there seems to be a large gray area rolling in the sky. It can't be seen that they are clouds.
It's fog.
"Ouch——"
A shrill howl of a wolf kicked off the night in the wilderness.
Corpses crawled out of the ground and wandered around aimlessly. Their empty pupils were replaced by clusters of flickering soul fire. Wherever they passed, the creatures retreated.
The wilderness at night seemed to have changed into a completely different world. Even the big trees that seemed full of life during the day seemed to have lost their vitality at this time. Those tree trunks swaying in the wind were like the tentacles of demons dancing wildly.
Thick fog rose from the humid earth, glowing with a dead white color. The fog gathered, twisted and circled, casting shadowy traces on the vast ground. It became thicker and thicker, gradually climbing over the hills, sinking downwards, towards
The countless corpses in the wilderness drifted past.
In the confusion, only scarlet soul fires flickered.
The human world is gradually turning into a ghost.
Hong Ducheng took out an incense stick and lit it. The green smoke lingered in the cave, emitting a faint fragrance.
"This is an exorcism incense, which can cover up the breath of living things. The perception of low-level corpses is slow, so as long as you don't encounter the black tide, there is no need to worry. The purpose of lighting the exorcism incense is to guard against evil spirits. Be careful not to be attacked silently by evil spirits.
"Hong Ducheng explained.
Li Sui'an took it and took a look, showing a text bubble.
[Exorcism incense: Made from a mixture of soul beads, cinnabar, wild dog blood from mass graves, glutinous rice, and Sophora japonica wood powder. It has the effect of covering vitality and exorcising evil. 】
He casually took out an exorcism charm.
"Wouldn't it be more effective with an exorcism charm?"
Hong Ducheng was stunned, "The exchange for the exorcism talisman requires not only five taels of silver, but also five points of military merit to exchange for one. It's too luxurious to use. You may need it in the future, so you'd better keep it for now."
"I exchanged some before I left the house. If you need anything, just ask."
After all, Li Sui'an is also a red-clad security guard of Darun. The internal price of the Lantern Department is at least 50% cheaper than that of the external military supplies department, and his expenses are not that high.
He had no experience in night survival in the wilderness, so he deliberately asked about some precautions for night survival, and the two of them were happy to tell them.
After chatting for a while, everyone spontaneously shut up.
Because a group of ghouls passed by nearby, the surrounding temperature dropped several degrees very quickly.
The wilderness night was eerily quiet.
Except for the occasional murmur of an unknown night bird and the fluttering of insects, the only sounds left were the howling of corpse dogs and the rustling footsteps of ghouls.
Corpse-eating dogs are the weakest. The only troubles are that they are fast, flexible enough, and there are enough of them. But when facing body-tempering warriors, as long as they are hit, they will either die or be injured.
Ghouls are first-level demons and are frequent visitors to the wilderness. There are rarely less than five of them acting together. Often, if you fight one, a large group will emerge.
Have zombies crossed the line?
Very disgusting!
If you haven't slept yet, there's no need to provoke them.
The group of corpses were too close, and Hong Ducheng watched their every move.
With these two people around, Li Sui'an felt at ease and could still take drugs and continue practicing.
Shenting's ancestral aperture is open, and as long as he is not practicing basic sword techniques, it will have no effect if he doesn't sleep for several nights.
But now he still sleeps habitually, even if it's just lying on the bed practicing the spirit turtle to sleep.
If sleep has a state, he is obviously still in the "early bed state".
Si Ye has already passed through the "stay-up-all-night state" and is at the "all-night state", and has a habit of not sleeping for several days, so he is not far from the "soulless state".
The soul is almost gone, and the next state is naturally the "sudden death state".
"I probably won't die suddenly after staying up late in my life." He thought.
He threw another pill into his mouth, mixed it with a sip of spiritual wine, and swallowed it. He started the Thunder Sound Marrow Cleansing Sutra, and the increasingly vigorous energy was mobilized from the body. It kept beating according to a certain frequency, and the bones and internal organs of the whole body
The six fu organs are all in a state of hammering.
The body quenching progress bar is growing bit by bit, which feels wonderful.
"Shasha~"
A corpse holding a bone knife crawled out of the rotten soil.
As soon as the black mist rolled in, the soil on the ground that broke out of the ground returned to its original state.
This corpse was covered in bones and all the carrion had fallen off.
It was extremely hungry and thirsty, its soul fire flashed in its pupils, and it wandered around aimlessly, eager to replenish energy.
There is also territory among ghouls. This ghoul's body is light and has 36 fine ribs, which are closely arranged together to form a bone armor. It is only one step away from being promoted to the second-level demon ghost.
It forgot where the bone knife in its hand came from and carefully avoided certain places. Its instinct told it that there was a powerful presence there and it could not pass there.
But wandering around like this, there will always be times when you hit the restricted area.
At this time, it will evaluate the strength of the opponent's soul pressure. If it is a ghoul similar to itself, it will use its light body and bone knife to deal with the opponent, knocking them down in a circle. Then it will swallow the soul of the ghoul.
Fire, obtains the energy that satisfies it.
This time, where it broke out of the ground, it was still wandering around as usual.
But today, it felt a strange atmosphere.
That is the smell of Qi and blood, its most thirsty energy.
Its scarlet eyes fluttered, and it followed the most primitive feeling to find it, and also crossed the territory.
A group of ghouls blocked the way and growled at it.
The Bone Ghoul only paused for a few breaths, and the soul fire suddenly flourished, and he crossed over boldly.
It's hungry!
No one can stop it from eating.
Fighting a group of ghouls alone requires courage, and even more strength. It is obviously the taller among the short ones, and it has exactly this strength. This battle is really dangerous. If it hadn't relied on its own agility to get around the ghouls,
Circles, grinding the opponent to death with one knife after another, it is difficult for it to win so smoothly. Even so, it also paid the price of breaking five ribs before defeating all the ghouls. When the last ghoul fell, it struggled
Earth won the final victory.
It was extremely hungry, so it pounced on it arrogantly, opened its mouth and swallowed the soul fire on the corpse, "Hey, why is it less than usual?" It seemed that a thief had stolen ten pieces of it without anyone noticing.
one part.
With its brain, it obviously can't figure it out.
As they were devoured one after another, the soul fire in their eyes became even more intense.
Select the strongest ghoul and remove its bones with carrion.
He removed his broken ribs and gestured at the fracture. After a burst of black mist, the ribs were repaired.
After all the broken bones were repaired, it felt the soul fire erupt in its skull, and a large black mist surged from the void.
It couldn't suppress this fluctuation, it was a little panicked instinctively, and its soul fire was beating wildly.
When the whole body was wrapped in a black mist, it turned into a strange black egg.
I don't know how much time passed before an even more powerful energy surged in. It roared and burst the black mist eggshell.
A brand new body rushed out, taller, three meters tall, with thick thigh bones, bone spurs growing on the joints, and a layer of bone armor covering the whole body, covering the chest and head. The bone spurs on the spine on the back were hideous, and the bone knives
It also evolves into a three-fingered blade.
It succeeded and evolved into a second-level tearer.
It looked up to the sky and roared, and all the wandering corpses nearby seemed to be summoned and rushed towards it.
It became the leader of this area, with the ability to command hundreds or even thousands of ghouls.
Its perception has become sharper, it is the breath of human warrior's blood, and there is also a nasty feeling.
It waved its sharp claws and pointed to that place.
rustle~
All the corpses turned around and headed towards the stone forest.
Li Sui'an, who was in trance, suddenly opened his eyes, and a large green light woke him up, "Wake up, we are in trouble."
It was already midnight, and Hong Ducheng was resting, while Hong Dubao was on guard duty. Hearing this, he quickly scanned the surroundings, but found no source of danger. Even the group of ghouls that were wandering nearby were nowhere to be found.
Where does the danger come from?
Li Sui'an ignored his doubtful eyes, took out his sword from its sheath, and took the initiative to walk out of the cave.
Although the two were confused, they were not blindly confident. They walked out and picked up a big stone to seal the entrance of the cave.
Soon, they discovered trouble.
Under the silvery moonlight, white mist steamed up from the earth, and there was a rustling sound in the misty mist, as if countless insects were crawling. But they were experienced enough to know that it was a group of corpses approaching.
The first ghoul appeared in the field of vision, with two points of orange soul fire, which stood out in the dark night.
Getting closer and closer, Li Sui'an could already see the rotten flesh and yellowed teeth of the corpse, as well as the saliva stuck on it, reflecting the moonlight.
There is nothing to fear from corpses.
It's not like he hasn't been killed before.
But before that, they were all in the siege battles between demons and ghosts, or they were hiding behind Mu Zhou to make sneak attacks.
Now I'm afraid this condition is no longer available.
Taking a deep breath, Li Sui'an smelled the smell of corruption, but felt excited.
[Ghoul: First-order demon ghost.
Between life and death, the body is rotten and the soul is hazy. Osteoporosis, slow speed, stiff limbs. Afraid of the sun, fond of human blood, and addicted to darkness and moisture. On moonlit nights, they run wildly and want to eat people.]
When the mind is concentrated and falls on the corpse.
A text bubble appeared above its head.
After practicing for more than half a year and taking so many drugs, if I still can't deal with a group of corpses, I will really be embarrassed to see others.
In the blink of an eye, the zombies ran to the bottom of the stone forest. When they ran, their upper limbs twisted and swayed in weird postures, just like the running postures in zombie movies.
"Hey~"
A water droplet-like light bullet hit the corpse head-on.
"Ouch~"
There was a roar from behind, and the corpses suddenly accelerated.
You call it slow.
It’s noisy!
Is Bolt as fast as it?
But it is still much worse than the state of being in the dark tide when the demons and ghosts besieged the city.
Turning on the continuous fire mode, water-drop-like light bullets shot out continuously. The Hong brothers tried their best to pose for a long time, but no corpse could get close.
The newly promoted Ripper still retained the vigilance and insidious habits he had when he was weak. He only hid in the back and kept shouting orders, letting the zombies charge, but he did not show his face.
There were more and more corpses gathering around, and even a howler in the distant jungle was alarmed by its roar.
The biggest feature of the Howler is that it has a mouth on its chest, with only soul-fire pupils left in its head, and its mouth is completely sealed by bones. It opens the bloody mouth on its chest and lets out a silent roar. A unique soul.
The fire frequency fluctuated and spread in all directions.
All the demons and ghosts in the area ten miles below heard it.
The Howler was not responding to the Shredder's roar, on the contrary, it felt provoked.
"You've overstepped your bounds, brother. Summoning a younger brother is my skill. Those guys like the Rippers should just charge with all their might."
The language system of demons and ghosts is complex and changeable. When translated into Chinese, the meaning is roughly this.
No matter what the reason is.
In short, more and more corpses are gathering towards the stone forest.
"Damn it, what a good place did you choose? Why are there so many corpses?"
Li Sui'an's mental perception was full of dangers, and he couldn't help but complain.
Hong Ducheng also said blankly: "That shouldn't be the case. We don't usually see a single snake in this stone forest. We brothers don't rest here once or twice. Brother, why don't you let some in and we can resist."
Li Sui'an also doubted himself. Every time he went out, something bad happened. Was it because he forgot to read the almanac this time?
But he was on a killing spree and had no time to care.
Ever since his strength increased greatly, he has never fought as smoothly as today. The more he killed, the more he killed, and he felt huge green souls pouring into the soul tower.
The corpses he killed and the green souls he plundered were more than ten times larger than the green light.
It just so happens that the black lotus is about to be released, so maybe there is a lack of these ghouls to add to the fun.
"No, you keep the front row, and leave the output to me in the back row. Also, pay attention to the rear, don't let the ghoul steal the house from behind."
Hong Ducheng made a quick decision, "Second brother, you are responsible for the rear."
