Chapter 47 Ogawa Village
At this time, by the light of the fire, he looked at the huge stone in front of him. He felt that it was a bit strange, but it stopped here and did not move. Lin Jue could not figure out its purpose for a while.
I have heard that kind-hearted spirits and spirits think that people may be in danger and use various methods to block people from moving forward. I have also heard that spirits use the method of transformation to deal with people, making them tired and draining their energy.
People slowly lose their courage and then harm others again.
I don't know what this is like.
The third senior brother looked around.
The little fox stared ahead.
Others were staring at Lin Jue.
Lin Jue thought for a moment and stepped forward: "We are going to Xiaochuan Village on the night journey, why are you blocking me on the road?"
His tone was not afraid, but he was not angry either.
After the words fell to the ground, there was silence everywhere.
There was still only the sound of burning torches.
"There is a ghost in Xiaochuan Village ahead, and we are here to get rid of it. If you are afraid that we will encounter danger if we continue to move forward, so you are blocking us here, then please leave, because we ourselves are
Go looking for ghosts." Lin Jue thought for a while before saying, and then paused, "We appreciate this kindness. If we come here tomorrow during the day, there will definitely be an incense candle."
There was no response from the front, the boulder was still there.
There was even a gust of wind blowing.
"call……"
The flames of the torches were deflected to the side.
"Master, how about we go around to the side?" A villager said timidly.
Where to go around?
If it refuses to give way and takes another route, won't it follow?
Wouldn’t it be more passive then?
Lin Jue did not explain or pay attention. He thought about it again and took a step forward, with a hint of anger gradually appearing on his face:
"If you don't leave, I will think that you blocked the road on purpose and wanted to harm others.
"Then you've met!
"To be honest, we come from Fuqiu Peak of Yishan Mountain. Among the seven magic techniques on the mountain, my little junior sister learned the 'stone-breaking' method. I wonder if you have heard of it, which is to break stones into powder!"
The junior sister next to me was stunned when she heard this. Fortunately, the confusion was only in her mind, and she didn't show any expression on her face.
"As for the big tree just now..."
Lin Jue said with another pause and raised his right hand.
There was something in his hand that reflected bright light under the torch. It was not a Taoist magic weapon for exorcising demons, or any other treasure. It was an extremely sharp hatchet.
"My senior brother likes to be a carpenter. I just need a bookshelf and a couch in my house. I think they are a good piece of material!"
The voice was still solemn, echoing in the night.
There was a certain momentum for a moment, so that the words sounded both like a threat and the truth.
Everyone couldn't help but look at him and at the boulder in front of them.
Just then——
"Canopy..."
The boulder exploded into a ball of black smoke, which instantly melted into the night. Only by the light of the fire could you see it spreading slowly.
"The wind is coming——"
As soon as the words fell, a breeze began to rise.
The black smoke was blown away immediately.
"Let's go."
Lin Jue whispered something in a low voice, and then walked forward, even taking the torch from the villager who was walking in the front, one person leading the way.
Everyone couldn't help but look at him, followed him, and couldn't help but quietly look at the darkness around them.
After walking for several miles, the spirit did not appear again.
Until we are very close to the village.
"Junior brother, you are so courageous. Senior brother, I was still thinking about how to make them retreat. I didn't expect that junior brother would be able to drive them away after a confrontation." The third senior brother then spoke.
"This is how ordinary people deal with monsters and ghosts. I haven't mastered my magic skills, so I have to use these." Lin Jue replied truthfully.
"This is not necessarily weaker than magic. Junior sister must learn this trick from your eighth senior brother. From now on, master will die of old age and leave Fuqiu Peak to go elsewhere. Whether it is confronting people or dealing with monsters, it will not be the only way.
Relying on magic skills. Especially if you can't tell the other person's good and evil, it's not
If you have to fight." The third brother said, "What's more, when it comes to fighting, no matter how many spells you learn, your changes will eventually be limited. Every spell has its strengths and weaknesses. Unless you are proficient in everything, it is best not to lose in the fight.
The best way is not to fight with tactics, and the second is to use your brain."
"knew!"
The junior sister said seriously.
Lin Jue couldn't help but look ahead.
She knew how many skills this little senior brother had. They were just disgusting with fire and breathing wind, and wood escape and breathing, which were not very advanced. In fact, she was thinking about it just now, not knowing how to deal with this sudden appearance of the monster.
Especially when they knew nothing about this spirit and couldn't even tell whether it was one spirit or two, they didn't know if these spells were useful.
Who would have thought that her senior brother could use none of his spells, and just relied on his momentum and the fictitious "Ji Shi" that she had not even started to learn to defeat him.
The junior sister thought carefully and remembered it secretly.
"You must know that behavior is Taoism, cultivation is cultivation, and ability is ability. Taoism is the magic power you cultivate, cultivation is the virtue you accumulate, the mind you cultivate, and the magic and magical powers you practice hard are your abilities. There is no Taoism in this world.
There is no saying that those who are higher are respected by others, and there is no saying that those with higher moral standards will win in fighting. Most of those seniors who devoted themselves to cultivating golden elixirs in the mountains are not good at fighting.
"Spells are mutually reinforcing and incompatible, and it is difficult for a general to be victorious. Like the stone you learned, after you have learned it, you will encounter a spirit made of stone. Due to its natural solidity, few Taoists will be able to get it, but even if it is better than
No matter how high your Taoism is, it will be difficult for you to withstand a few slaps from you.
"On the other hand, if you learn spells like Calling the Wind and Paper Man, no matter how advanced you are, you won't be able to deal with an ordinary and stubborn stone.
"..."
The third senior brother said as he walked.
It's like I'm here to teach them.
Just walking and talking, he took out the wine bottle and took a sip. Fortunately, the wine was very weak, so he drank it as a joke.
Soon we approached Ogawa Village.
"Almost there."
A villager held a torch and identified the bamboo forest nearby, and then said with a trembling voice:
"After this bamboo forest, there is the graveyard at the head of the village. If you want to go there during the day, you can go around the weir pond. In the past, we used to walk this way in the evening. Now we don't dare to go there in the evening.
After leaving, I didn’t dare to go out at all. Fortunately, it’s better than here.”
Lin Jue stretched his neck and looked ahead.
This is a winding path. The bamboo forest is not big and just blocks the front. You can't see anything in the dark.
"How far away?"
"It takes two to three hundred steps."
"Then let's go through the bamboo forest and have a look first."
Lin Jue knew that he had a meager career and was new to magic, so it would be great to be able to burn off these lingering souls on the road, but he had to be more vigilant.
So I held the torch and walked forward slowly.
Not that he was in the lead, at least his little fox was walking a little ahead of him.
"Woo?"
The little fox barked again, stopped and looked back at him.
At the same time, Lin Jue also heard some noises.
Carefully taking a few steps forward, I suddenly saw a dozen or so fires ahead, four or five of which were orange torches, and some light green phosphorus fires, intertwined with each other and lighting up the night sky. It was obviously a summer night, but it was still bright.
There was fog, and traces of fog could be clearly seen between the trees, and some unreal shadows could be vaguely seen swaying in the fog.
Someone's shouts and curses could be heard faintly.
"As the saying goes, ghosts don't easily break into the Yang's house, but you guys are getting more and more courageous, and you dare to come to my house! You are all the same folks from the past, bah!
"Eat me with one arrow!"
A tiny firelight flickered in the night.
Then several paths were connected and crisscrossed in the forest.
The shadows floating in the fog dispersed instantly, and even the fog seemed to be much thinner.
"If you dare to come into my house again and scare my mother, I will first invite my friends to dig three feet into the ground for you, then bring in the firewood pile and burn the entire forest to the ground!"
There was a bit of anger and a bit of pride in his words.
Lin Jue only thought of that Luo Monk for a moment.
Seeing this situation, there was nothing to observe, so he quickly lit a torch and stepped forward.
There were seven or eight people standing in the forest, all young and middle-aged men. Three or four of them were dressed in black, carrying swords and bows. The others looked like people from the village, holding hoes and hatchets.
When they saw Lin Jue and his entourage, they became wary.
"who?"
There were even bows and arrows pointed at them.
"It's me! Zhang Da! We are back!" A villager shouted loudly, "We have invited three real people from Fuqiu Temple."
"oh……"
The bow and arrow were then put down.
Two torches gathered together.
The leader in the forest was a man in his twenties, also wearing black clothes and holding a bow and arrow. He was originally angry, but when he saw the group, he was very polite.
"Why did Third Uncle come back at night? Oops! We really invited the real person from Fuqiu Temple!"
"The three real people are all very capable. On our way back, we encountered monsters blocking our way. The real people scared them away with just a few words!"
"But are you serious? Then please take a look, real people! This place is one of the haunted graveyards in our village. How to drive away ghosts? These ghosts are getting more and more rampant and dare to run into people's homes!"
Many torches were lowered, illuminating the ground ahead.
Lin Jue couldn't help but look down.
This is a poplar forest.
There are sparse woods and straight tree trunks. There are many simple graves in the middle, and there are traces of fire. It is obvious that the ground has sunk down, and wooden boards in the ground can be seen in some places.
The exposed roots of poplar trees, or deep, dark holes.
"Zhang Da, didn't you say you would wait for us to invite real people from Yishan and Qiyun Mountains? Why did you invite people here to fight ghosts again?"
"Then what can be done? Didn't I tell you? Last night, a ghost came to my house and stood in front of my mother's window, scaring her almost to death! I was still on the mountain, and the king of the village
My second brother came running over so early in the morning, I almost thought I was coming back for a funeral! Fortunately, my mother was not frightened to death, but she still hasn’t recovered yet. If it were you, how could you endure it?"
As he spoke, he even stepped forward and kicked the stones on the ground into the pit in front of him.
The villager said nothing.
Of course he could hold it back, he didn't have Zhang Da's ability, and he didn't have these strong friends who had been practicing martial arts for several years and could come to help with just a shout.
Just being angry and being able to go to the grave at night for my old mother and scold the ghosts can be considered a bit of courage.
No one can say anything to question it.
"But why did the land sink?"
"This afternoon, I brought firewood and set a fire here to burn them all, but the ground collapsed while they were burning. Unexpectedly, I had no choice but to get them, and they still came out at night. No matter how they came out, this time
I changed the arrows to flaming ones..."
Before he could finish speaking, black shadows suddenly appeared all around him.
As if they were angered by his words, the black shadows that had just been scattered by their rockets suddenly gathered again, floated around, and even rushed toward them.
"Again?
"Well done!"
Zhang Da was not afraid at all and just punched.
Ghosts are nothingness. Logically speaking, ordinary people and swords cannot cut them. However, people have blood and yang energy, and some people also have evil energy. The blood energy is strong and the evil energy is strong, but they can attack and hurt ghosts.
But before he encountered the ghost, he heard a burst of flames.
"Canopy..."
Flames exploded in the forest and rushed to all sides.
Within a large semicircle in front, the ghost figures were almost completely burned away.
Lin Jue looked back.
There were also three or four ghost figures in the rear. Two or three of them were dispersed by the little junior sister's Yang Qi. The remaining one was actually the little fox cub who rushed up and clumsily bit and fought with it as if he could meet the ghost figures.
He made a small sound and heard a rather ferocious whimpering sound.
It was easy to cope with it.
But at this moment, a black shadow suddenly flashed across the ground.
The black shadow was difficult to detect and could only be seen in the firelight. It emerged from the ground like a ghost and was rushing towards Zhang Da in front of him.
"Shit!"
Zhang Da has practiced martial arts and his reactions are very fast. Even though he was facing those ghost figures, he noticed the sudden black figure and immediately wanted to dodge and block, or even look for opportunities to counterattack.
It's a pity that this black shadow is too fast, and he is holding a bow and arrow in his hand without a knife. Although he pushes the bow and arrow forward, there is a gap.
The black shadow just passed through.
"ah!"
With a scream, the black shadow fled far away and disappeared into the night.
Looking at Zhang Da again, there were already a few scratches on his chest.
Chapter completed!
