Sun Yan's face suddenly darkened. Everyone felt a chill down their backs. Everyone knew that there was an extra person in the team.
"Giggle...what's going on?" Ji Yueqi's voice trembled. "Stop talking!" Lin Hai and Gu Zheng spoke at the same time.
"Boom, boom..." A thunder suddenly sounded above the attic, and lightning suddenly came in through the hollow window. The inside of the attic was suddenly as bright as day. Gu Zheng took advantage of this light and quickly burst into the crowd. Sweeping, the ancient sword in his hand made a faint chirping sound.
"evildoer……"
"Evil beast..."
Gu Zheng and Lin Hai discovered the thing mixed in the crowd at the same time, shouted loudly, and rushed towards it. Although Lin Hai was already a lot older, his actions at this time were not much worse than Gu Zheng's. .I saw the seven-star sword in his hand stabbing a person on the edge of the crowd. Gu Zheng was also like him, one on the left and one on the right, attacking from a flank, with an astonishing momentum.
"Quack..." When the "person" saw the two people rushing towards him, he let out a strange scream and ran towards the attic stairs. Gu Zheng wanted to chase after him, but the lightning had gone out at this time, and he was gone. There are traces of that thing.
"Everyone, please don't disperse." Lin Hai said in a solemn tone.
"What is this?" Sun Yan asked with a surprised look on his face. "The sound sounds like it is a frog."
"It's a monster that hasn't completely transformed into a human form." Gu Zheng looked solemn. In the lightning strike just now, he had already seen the monster's face clearly. The monster already had a human body, but part of its face was extremely ferocious. It is covered with wrinkles and poisonous marks, with round eyes and a big mouth. According to the records in the "Demon Book", this thing should be a toad spirit.
To become a spirit, a toad needs to practice for seven hundred and twenty years. After surviving the thunder tribulation, it can completely transform into a human form. However, toads are originally relatively dull creatures. To cultivate into a human form, many opportunities are needed, and the most important thing is that it Only by being possessed by the ghosts of the dead can the demon elixir be condensed. Therefore, most of the demons turned into toads are extremely vicious and like to devour humans. Therefore, once a demon hunter discovers a toad spirit, he will definitely get rid of it to prevent it from harming the party.
"It's a toad spirit." Gu Zheng continued: "The thunder tonight should be caused by it. It is overcoming the tribulation."
"Then why did it come to our crowd?" Sun Yan frowned and said.
"Because it wanted to find a substitute." Lin Hai said: "This toad spirit must have been afraid of being struck by lightning that day, so he mingled among us and wanted to use us to help it block the thunder. It can be said that its intentions are extremely vicious!"
Gu Zheng nodded. This toad obviously wanted to guide the thunder and fire to everyone, so that it could block the disaster. However, the toad might not die if it was struck by lightning, but if everyone was hit by the thunder and fire, it would definitely not happen. Theory of Survival. "It's already so vicious even before it becomes a monster. If it turns into a human form, I wonder how many more harmful things it will do to the world?" Gu Zheng shook his head and sighed softly.
"I'll go up and meet the toad spirit for a while. You guys stay down here and don't move around." Gu Zheng thought about it and said.
Sun Yan was startled and said solemnly: "This is too risky. It's better not to act rashly. Now that we have discovered its traces, it may not dare to mess with us."
Gu Zheng shook his head and said: "No. This toad spirit is extremely cunning. Now that it sees us here, it will not give up. It will definitely come back to pester us. Moreover, if it is here to survive the tribulation, it will definitely attract lightning strikes. Whether we provoke it or not, we are still in danger."
"Then let's leave this house and go somewhere else!" Sun Yan said in a very stern tone. To be honest, he really didn't want Gu Zheng to take risks, and he didn't want anything to happen to Gu Zheng.
"We can't leave!" Gu Zheng smiled bitterly and said: "Do you think this toad is a simple thing? As soon as we come in, it will definitely cast a spell and trap us here. Unless we get rid of it, what can we do? Able to leave? Do you think our lights went out because the batteries were all dead?"
"That's right." Lin Hai said in a slow tone from the side: "If we don't get rid of this toad spirit, it is really a serious problem. Even if it doesn't come to us now, if it succeeds in overcoming the disaster, we will be the same." It will be a disaster. By then it will be more powerful and it will be even more inconvenient to clean it up."
After listening to Lin Hai's words, Sun Yan stopped talking. He smiled bitterly and said to Gu Zheng: "Then do you want to send a few people to accompany you up?"
Gu Zheng shook his head and said: "No need." After thinking about it, Gu Zheng said to Lin Hai again: "Old sir, I will trouble you to take care of me now."
Lin Hai nodded and said: "It's easy to say. This is my responsibility. In this way, you take my disciple with you. Although she is not as skilled as you, she is also somewhat adaptable. She should have no problem in protecting herself. If something happens, It’s good to have someone to take care of you.”
"This..." Gu Zheng hesitated for a moment. He knew that Feng Yu was quite capable, but this Feng Yu was so bold that he didn't listen to him at all. It would not be a good thing if he made his own decisions and caused trouble.
"Okay!" Feng Yu clapped his hands and shouted. Although this place is eerie and terrifying, Feng Yu is much more courageous than the average team member. Even if he heard the extra voice just now, he is not afraid. She is originally Lin Hai. If she had been in the past, she would have been a demon hunter walking among mountains and rivers. Under Lin Hai's supervision, she always felt that she had no place to display her talents. Now it is rare that Lin Hai actually spoke up. Asking her to carry out the task, she couldn't help but feel elated.
"You have to listen to other people's orders!" Seeing Feng Yu's cheerful look, Lin Hai regretted the decision he made. But he also had some selfish motives in this decision. He knew how powerful Gu Zheng was, and he could deal with a The toad spirit must be able to do everything with ease, and he can use his body and soul to protect Feng Yu. But he himself is old. If something weird appears down here, he will not be able to take care of this naughty Feng Yu despite his desperate efforts, so he He tactfully left the safety of his student to Gu Zhenglai.
"You can't say no!" Feng Yu said with a straight face and waved his fist at Gu Zheng's side.
"Okay..." Gu Zheng smiled bitterly, thought for a while, and then said: "But you have to listen to me and don't act rashly, otherwise I will drive you down!"
