Chapter 21: What a Li-Ghost of the Corpse Soul Clan
Mu Heng found a ready-made clothing store and bought a few sets of clothing. He then put away the original Taoist robes, neatly folded them and placed them in the middle of the bamboo box. After packing them up, he planned to find a place to eat and sleep.
"Hey, Taoist Priest, it's so dark, why haven't you closed the stall yet?" Walking back the way we came, we met the fortune-telling Taoist priest from before.
When the Taoist priest saw someone talking to him, he saw Mu Heng waving to him not far away.
Mu Heng changed into a green robe, and his temperament was greatly improved. The sloppy Taoist priest looked at him and marveled: "We haven't seen you for a while, why have you changed your outfit?"
"You can't always wear the same clothes. If you don't talk about this, the Taoist priest hasn't eaten yet. Why don't I treat the Taoist priest to a drink?" Although I don't like this Taoist priest, I finally know him. Finding someone to eat with him can also solve the problem.
The sadness of loneliness.
"Very good. It seems that little brother has made money. Congratulations. I would like to invite you, but I will not be respectful. I would like to invite you here and take me to try some good osmanthus wine."
Chu Er cleaned up the stall, took Mu Heng and left.
"Tsk..." He took a sip and his mouth was filled with the sweet scent of osmanthus. Mu Heng fell in love with this osmanthus brew.
"There is no need for light blue and deep red, it is naturally the best among flowers." Osmanthus has never been about its color.
When Mu Heng came to this world, in addition to taking risks, he also practiced cultivation. Eating was an errand that he could "deal with". It had been a long time since he had such a relaxed drinking experience.
"Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. The wine is wonderful, the words are wonderful, and the people are even more wonderful." The old Taoist priest also smiled happily after taking a sip.
After stroking his gray beard, the old Taoist priest asked again: "My little brother had no money this afternoon, how come he suddenly has money now?"
"Taoist priest, you can call me Mu Heng. When it comes to making money, it's just an accident. It doesn't matter if you don't mention it or not." Mu Heng didn't want to tell him that he went to the brothel to "do business", so he just laughed.
"I see that the Taoist master who practices divination is also from outside the country?" Mu Heng was curious about this Taoist priest and wanted to touch his heels.
"Yes, and no, it's just a little bit of bad behavior, it's not worth mentioning. Come on, let's drink."
Mu Heng saw that he didn't want to say anything, and he didn't force it. It was fate that they met by chance and could happily drink at the same table. Besides, he still crossed an unknown amount of time and space.
Seeing that Mu Heng seemed to be curious, the old Taoist priest said again: "Brother Mu, you will know it in the future. It is useless to say more now."
"Taoist priest, please." Although the slightly sweet osmanthus wine is mellow, the alcohol content is a little lower, which just slightly comforts the alcohol bug in my stomach. In my previous life, in school, a few buddies in the dormitory had beer and barbecue in the summer.
, one drink lasts all night. If you drink this osmanthus wine as beer, you will definitely be bored to death.
After taking a few sips, Mu Heng suddenly felt a bit chilly all over his body. It was obviously midsummer, and it was normal to feel cool at night, but it was strange to have a chilly air. He tightened his clothes and asked the old Taoist priest, "Taoist Master,
Have you ever felt a chill?"
"Yes, it's coming from the northeast." The old Taoist priest took a sip of wine and said thoughtfully.
"Did something strange happen?" Mu Heng was surprised and a little excited. Being able to see the strange things in this world can relieve the boring practice.
"I'm afraid something evil has been born." The old Taoist priest looked worried, as if he had expected what would happen.
"Master Taoist, let's go quickly, let's go see the excitement."
"Brother Mu Heng, your habit of joining in the fun is not good. You may die early." The old Taoist priest didn't want to go. He drank someone else's wine, so it would be inappropriate not to follow.
"Bah, bah, bah, let's just watch the fun, we're not looking for someone to fight for." After paying the bill, Mu Heng took the old Taoist priest and headed to the place where the incident occurred.
The source of the cold air was like a firelight in the dark night, particularly conspicuous. The closer Mu Heng got, the more he could feel the specific location of the cold air.
"It's right there, follow quickly, Taoist priest." Mu Heng felt the area where the coldest air was thickest, and he kept walking without stopping. He looked far in the direction of the destination, and there seemed to be a dark light that was constantly flashing.
"Slow down, slow down, take care of the old man. His legs and feet are not that agile." The old Taoist priest was urged by Mu Heng to hurry up and hurry up, constantly panting.
"Taoist Master, your physical fitness is not good, you need to exercise." Seeing that his breathing was not smooth, Mu Heng slowed down slightly and complained.
"Nonsense, can I compare with you young people? How old am I?" When the old Taoist priest heard this, his eyes suddenly stood up and he stared at Mu Heng.
"There seems to be someone fighting over there." Visually observing that the distance was no more than one mile, Mu Heng noticed the tension in the atmosphere and the disordered breath.
"Indeed, let's not go. It's not worth risking your life." The old Taoist priest seemed to feel the strange atmosphere and wanted to retreat, so he whispered.
"Don't worry Taoist Master, let's just take a look and don't get close." Mu Hengxin was curious, how could he back down at this time.
In the blink of an eye, the two of them came to a mansion based on their feelings. The words "Chen Mansion" were hung on the door. The painted red door showed that this was no ordinary house.
"What a strong smell of blood." The air was suddenly mixed with the smell of blood. Mu Heng also felt the seriousness of the matter and suspected that a murder had occurred.
"Don't go in, Brother Mu." The old Taoist priest realized that something was wrong, so he wanted to run away, and then said: "Didn't I tell you before that your hall has turned dark, which may be a bad omen, so Brother Mu better not do it.
It’s well blended.”
"I don't believe this. Let's go in and take a look. Be careful." Mu Heng held the bamboo stick in front of him and quietly walked into Chen's residence.
"It's weird, why is such a big mansion so empty?" Mu Heng turned around and couldn't remember how many turns he took. He didn't see anyone, and he couldn't help but feel strange.
"The bold ghost dares to do evil at the foot of my Yuqingxingzhai Mountain. Why don't you hurry up and catch him." Just as Mu Heng was looking for clues, a sweet shout came from his ears, with a hint of crying in it.
"Hey, why does this voice sound so familiar, and it also says the door number of Yuqing Xingzhai?" After hearing the words "Yuqing Xingzhai", Mu Heng felt a little more at ease. There should be no danger as there are practitioners here.
.
Following the sound, Mu Heng and the two walked into the middle courtyard. When they opened the door, they saw Mu Heng's scalp was numb and his hands and feet were twitching.
In the courtyard of the main house, the ground was littered with corpses, including men, women, old and young. These corpses were pale and frightening. The blood under the corpses had gathered into a river, and the strong smell of blood continued to evaporate.
In the background is the mourning hall with the word "Dian" hanging in large black characters, which adds a strange atmosphere to the scene.
"Ugh..." Mu Heng, who had never seen so many corpses before, felt like he was in a hellish scene. His stomach was churning and he vomited out all the food and wine he had just eaten.
After I finished vomiting, I felt better. I looked back at the old Taoist priest, but he didn't react as violently as he did. I just looked up at the back of the main room, looking for something.
"The fight is in the back, Taoist priest, let's go." Mu Heng adjusted, stepped on the gap between the corpses, and walked to the backyard.
"Hey, why does that woman look so much like Junior Sister Yunjin?" Mu Heng turned around a corner and saw a white and pink figure hanging in the air on a flying sword. Upon closer inspection, he found that it was Luo Yunjin, and he was both happy and worried at the same time.
.
Because opposite Luo Yunjin, there was a monster with a green face and fangs and a sly smile. The monster was about a person and a half tall. The clothes on its body seemed to be torn apart by the flesh, and its thick body could be exposed from the cracks. Its hands were exposed.
The nails at the end have grown to 20 centimeters long and look very sharp. The huge feet are like two cattail fans, and the toenails are also scary long.
This monster continued to exude a cold air, and the temperature of the entire space dropped a lot.
The fear in his heart slowly rose, and Mu Heng swallowed deeply.
"Brother, please get out of here quickly. This ghost is quite powerful and I am no match." When Luo Yunjin saw Mu Heng, he felt happy, but then turned into worry, and reminded Mu Heng to leave.
"Junior sister, senior brother won't leave you alone. We have to go together." Seeing Luo Yunjin's anxiety, Mu Heng guessed that she might not be able to cope with it. At this time, she couldn't be left alone here.
Otherwise, he can still be considered a man.
"Taoist Priest, do you know what kind of monster this is?" Mu Heng didn't know the current situation and didn't know how to get started.
"This monster is absorbing the death energy. Stop him quickly. If we wait for him to absorb all the death energy here, the three of us will probably have to deal with it here." The Taoist priest carefully observed the monster for a long time and warned.
Mu Heng took a closer look at the monster. It was stagnant in the air at the moment, with its eyes closed tightly. Its hands were open as if it were hugging something. There was a wave under it, which seemed to be what Taoists called death energy.
It was absorbed into his body.
"Junior sister, quickly use your sword to kill this monster. He is absorbing the death energy. Stop him quickly." Mu Heng seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and relayed the Taoist priest's words to Luo Yunjin.
"Brother, it's not of much use. I stabbed it several times before you came, but it didn't hurt its roots." Luo Yunjin looked anxious. He had never encountered such an emergency before, and he didn't know.
How to respond.
"Junior sister, please come here first, and let's discuss the countermeasures."
"Taoist Priest, what is this thing? Is there any way to deal with it?" Mu Heng was anxious. Seeing that the Taoist priest seemed to have a certain understanding of this thing, he put his hope in him.
"This is a ghost that was turned into a ghost after death due to too much resentment during life."
"Fierce ghosts?" There was also talk of fierce ghosts on the earth in the previous life, but I had never seen them.
"That's right. Does Brother Mu know about the Soul Clan?" the Taoist priest then asked.
"The Corpse Soul Clan, is it the Corpse Soul Clan?" Mu Heng thought of the races in this world that he had seen in Daozang Palace before, including the Corpse Soul Clan located in the Xuanji Ice Territory.
"Yes, it's the Soul Clan."
"Why did the Soul Clan come here?" Mu Heng asked in confusion.
It stands to reason that the Human Race and the Corpse Soul Clan are opposing races. Even if the Corpse Soul Clan wants to cause trouble, they will not go to the foot of Yuqing Xingzhai Mountain, one of the human race's strongholds. This is not because the longevity star hangs himself all the time and is tired of living.
"It's not the Soul Clan who came here, but the people here transformed into the Soul Clan." The Taoist priest denied Mu Heng's guess, and then solemnly said to Mu Heng. This chapter has been completed!
