The piercing cry not only did not frighten the villagers, but also made them look excited.
It was also at this time that the peach wood stick fell.
"Shua~shua~shua~"
The wooden sticks roared and shot towards the outside of the ancestral hall, and most of them flew outside without stopping.
Only two of them made a "puff~" sound when they passed through the ghost, and stopped, floating strangely in mid-air.
"Roar~" The successive injuries completely angered the ghost, causing it to let out an angry roar.
But Hou Jiuming didn't give it a chance to retaliate. He rushed up with a cane and a willow branch, and in the process shouted, "Hit it!"
The excited villagers woke up under his command, and the people holding willow branches quickly stepped forward.
Among them, Erye was the fastest, almost rushing forward together with Hou Jiuming.
However, he was much more agile than Hou Jiuming. He reached the place where the peach wood stick was suspended in a few steps, raised the willow branch and pulled it up without any hesitation.
"Pa~" A crisp sound came from the place that was originally empty.
Not only that, it was also accompanied by a scream that was even more horrifying than before.
"ah……"
Seeing this, the villagers who followed immediately knew that the willow branches were equally effective, so they immediately pulled out the willow branches in their hands without further delay.
"Pah~pah~pah~"
"Ah~ah~ah~"
The others were not idle either, and continued to pick up chicken blood, black dog blood, and boy's urine and pour it on them.
For a moment, Hou Jiuming, the initiator, couldn't get close to him and could only shout with all his strength from the side.
"Smoke it to death, splash more..."
The fierce battle lasted for as long as a cup of tea before it stopped with Hou Jiuming's words.
In fact, the green light dissipated under the second round of liquid attack.
However, Hou Jiuming did not stop immediately, because he saw unforgettable hatred in the eyes of the villagers.
Knowing that they all needed to vent, they didn't say anything to stop them.
Instead, he did not speak until the chicken blood, dog blood, and boy's urine were exhausted and the person holding the willow branch was exhausted.
"Okay, stop fighting, he's already dead!"
"do you died?"
"Should he be dead?"
"Xiao Ming, is the ghost really dead?"
Upon hearing the stop, everyone looked at Hou Jiuming blankly.
Regardless of how vigorously they fought just now, they might not be able to kill the ghost, and they had no idea at all.
Now that the matter is over, he naturally turns his attention to the person involved.
"He is indeed dead!" He said this with absolute certainty, and coupled with his expression, everyone believed him.
It was also at this moment that the sound of crying could be heard intermittently in the ancestral hall.
"Woooooo~, Da Zhuang, the ghost was killed, I avenged you..."
"Mom, rest in peace..."
"Brother, don't worry, I will take good care of you..."
…………
Since the ghost was killed, Houwan Village has gradually returned to peace after the first few days of sadness.
Hou Jiuming also rested peacefully after burying his parents.
In this ancient time when medical skills were underdeveloped, one would not dare to be careless about a broken leg for fear of leaving a disability in the future.
He also sold off the few pieces of Susukino at home to collect the money for medicine, and asked others to hire a doctor for re-diagnosis and treatment and to prescribe medicine.
While he was recuperating, he studied the system.
I found that this system is not smart at all, it is stupid and does not respond no matter how I call it.
So far, a panel has only appeared during skill copying and deduction. At other times, it seems as if it does not exist.
Not only that, he also discovered that the ghost hand skill that he copied actually had sequelae after using it. The body would be very weak afterwards, and the feeling was almost like being hollowed out!
This is a bit hard to accept, because I don't know whether it is only this one that has side effects after using it, or whether all the copied skills have side effects.
If it were all, then this thing would easily become unusable.
As for the copying function, apart from being turned on once when encountering a ghost at the beginning, it has been unavailable for more than ten days during the recovery period, whether actively or passively.
I don't know if there are any restrictions or if there is some strange reason.
…………
In this way, a month passed in a hurry, and Hou Jiuming was able to walk without any problems due to his injuries.
Originally he did not hire a doctor and recovered slowly, but he could not walk normally for three to four months. Now, after spending money to hire a doctor and taking medicine, he was able to walk normally in just one month. He couldn't help but sigh, "It took only a month.
Money is indeed a wise choice.”
On this day, Hou Jiuming went outside to exercise as usual in the hope of a speedy recovery.
But as soon as he went out, the system that had been dormant for a month suddenly appeared.
"Skill discovered, do you want to copy it?"
"whether"
"Huh?" Seeing the panel in front of him, Hou Jiuming immediately became energetic and quickly looked around, trying to see what target appeared and caused the system to move.
But when I glanced around, it was all white shimmer, just like the past month, with no other colors at all.
"What's going on? I didn't find anything special. Why did it suddenly appear?"
He scratched his head, looked around blankly, and couldn't help but start to recall what was unusual about today.
"Getting up in the morning, going to the toilet to wash up, eating, and going out to exercise are no different from the past?" When I was puzzled, a thought suddenly flashed in my mind.
“Could it be that copying requires time to accumulate?
It has been a month since the last time I copied it. Does it mean that it takes a month to copy it before it can be used once?"
…………
Three days later, Hou Jiuming left Houwan Village with a backpack filled with peach wood swords and dry food under the reluctant eyes of the villagers.
"Take care little monkey!"
"You must take care of yourself outside. If you can't survive anymore, come back. You will be indispensable."
"When you go out, don't feel bad about yourself. Eat and drink when you should. Don't be reluctant to spend money. Money is something external to the body. You can earn it again if you lose it. Your body is the foundation. You must take care of your body."
Listening to the voices of concern behind him, Hou Jiuming was deeply moved, but he did not look back because he was afraid that he would be reluctant to leave after looking back.
Holding back the sourness in his heart, he raised his arm, shook it behind him, and walked forward with firm steps without looking back.
Three days ago, he thought he had discovered some rules of the system, so he resolutely chose to go out and explore.
Because we stay in the village, the system has no room to develop.
You can't use such a powerful ability to copy some farming skills, right?
That's too wasteful.
All things are interdependent. Since there are ghosts in this world, there must be something to restrain them. Maybe the legendary immortals also exist.
If we could meet him, wouldn't we have hope for eternal life?
With such expectations, he couldn't wait to leave, even before he could recover from his injuries, he embarked on the journey to find the immortal.
