"The evil spirit here has surrendered to me. This place is blocked from the outside world. How about you retire here and take care of your daughter."
"It's all up to you."
Zhang Youcai agreed readily.
Traveling all over the country for so many years.
He seems to have seen the world, lives a happy life, and has a higher income than ordinary poor people. At least he can have enough to eat.
But only he understood the pain of living in the open air, and Zhang Youcai had long wanted to settle down.
Is there any better place than here?
Self-sufficient, there are no excessive taxes, he can raise chickens and ducks, plant some rice, and everything he harvests is his own. Just think about it, he will be rich and happy.
This place is closed to the outside world, and all the evil spirits have surrendered to little brother Li Jun. Not only will the evil spirits not harm him, but they will also protect him.
Why does it feel so unreal?
Zhang Youcai was very satisfied.
…
Sun rise.
There should be enough yang energy to avoid all evil spirits, but it's so cold here that the sun can't even warm it.
"Li Jun, how did you do this? Dig quickly, dig quickly. It took me a long time to dig out just this little bit. I am convinced by you."
The dog was lying on a flat rock with its legs in the air, basking in the sun, while gesticulating and urging Li Jun to dig quickly.
There were fragrant chicken feet chewing in his mouth.
Click, click, click.
"Gouda, come and dig together."
"Bah, bah, bah, do you know what it means to love babies? I have only been hatched not long ago, and my fur is still fully grown. I am still a cub."
Li Jun was speechless.
He now clearly has three ghost soldiers and a unicorn, but he has to do the rough work himself.
Is there any justice left?
There was a clang, and the shovel seemed to hit something heavy. Li Jun quickly pulled away the soil and gravel and looked over.
This is a flat bluestone slab, lying quietly in the soil. When the bluestone is lifted, a large black cloak is revealed. The pattern is very old and there are some blood stains remaining.
The blood was still wet and sticky, like the blood of a hero that had just been shed.
"Back then, Chen Yu was buried wrapped in this cloak. A generation of heroes didn't even have a thin coffin after their death. Tsk, tsk, tsk, pathetic!"
Gou Da saw Li Jun dig out Chen Yu's shroud, swallowed the chicken feet in three or two times, and ran over to take a look.
There was a squeaking sound on his lips, and he was talking about pity and pity, but his eyes were full of expressions of gloating.
There was no corpse in the cloak, and a bronze halberd lay quietly, simple and desolate, seeming to silently tell the story of the hero's end.
Li Jun gently picked up the bronze halberd.
Three thousand war spirits appeared during the day, kneeling on the ground silently. Li Jun slowly turned around to examine, and suddenly found a familiar figure.
Xu Jin?
"You're not dead?"
Xu Jin did not respond to Li Jun's words, he just knelt on the ground silently, his body motionless, and his eyes had complicated emotions.
"Li Jun, are you stupid?"
Gou Da pointed at Xu Jin: "He is a fighting spirit. He has already died. How can he die?"
"War spirits are not actually ghosts. They are souls that are forced to stay in the world. They generally have no consciousness of their own, but they are extremely powerful."
"After all, I am a Qilin who has lived for thousands of years. Naturally, I have more knowledge than you humans. Li Jun, if you don't understand anything in the future, you should ask me for advice."
Now Gouda will not admit that he is a cub? Li Jun feels a little helpless to complain.
How could a unicorn that has lived for thousands of years have such a personality?
Don't know what it has been through?
Li Jun asked: "Didn't Chen Yu absorb it? Why is it still there? Moreover, look at its expression, does it seem to be unconscious?"
Gou Da circled Xu Jin twice, as if he were choosing an animal.
"There are also some fighting spirits that by chance remain conscious. This kind of fighting spirit is the most precious, and Chen Yu is actually willing to devour it?"
"Fortunately, it didn't take long to swallow and it hasn't been fully digested yet. Li Jun, you have found a treasure. It is much easier to use than the ghost soldiers."
Xu Jin was shocked all over.
There was deep reluctance in his eyes.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, this fighting spirit has quite a personality. I just like to see the expression on your face when you are unwilling to give in, but you have to surrender to me, hahaha."
"By the way, Mr. Li."
Gou Da suddenly pointed at the bronze halberd and said, "Actually, there is something wrong with this thing. Do you really think Chen Yu would be so kind as to give you the bronze halberd."
"oh?"
"There are many kinds of ghosts"
"Pure resentment, yin energy, blood evil energy, objects, and corpses can all be called ghosts."
"The bronze halberd in your hand can be regarded as a fragment of Chen Yu."
Li Jun was shocked, his hand shook, and he almost lost his bronze halberd.
Fortunately, he had experienced many strange events in the past few days and his mind had been sharpened, so the bronze halberd did not fall to the ground.
Gouda continued.
"Every time you use the bronze halberd, Chen Yu will be able to revive a little. As time goes by, one day, the bronze halberd will transform into Chen Yu."
Damn it!!!
This is too confusing!
"What are the brains of these ghosts made of? Are they so cunning?" Li Jun was speechless.
Gou Daye said depressedly: "They have no brains and can sneak directly into people's minds. Their insight into people's hearts far exceeds that of humans. The higher the level of ghosts, the more cunning and difficult they are to deal with."
There was a pause.
The dog suddenly gritted his teeth.
"Thinking about how arrogant I was back then, even a ghost of He Bo's level was not worthy of filling my teeth. As a result..."
The loud noise of the dog suddenly stopped.
Li Jun saw that Gou Da's expression was indignant, with a hint of grievance, shame, and unwillingness.
Li Jun didn't bother to ask further questions and decided to leave a little dignity to it.
Gou Da calmed down and suddenly squeezed out ten drops of his heart's blood and handed it to Li Jun.
"If a ghost is one foot tall, my qilin will be one foot taller. My heart's blood is the thing that can defeat evil."
"At this time, you use this blood to wet the shroud cloak and control the terrain here. Slowly, the bronze halberd will be completely yours."
…
the next morning.
Li Jun tidied up briefly.
Get ready to leave here.
Zhang Youcai took his daughter to say goodbye.
"Bye bye big brother."
Nannan's eyes were bright and she had a smile on her face. After a day, the little girl completely forgot her sadness and regained her innocence as a child.
Li Jun smiled and touched her head, then left reluctantly for a long time.
"Chen Yu is a ghost, and Chen Yu's original corpse is a corpse that has been decayed for thousands of years. It can be said that how did they leave their descendants?"
"What kind of existence is Nannan?"
Li Jun was shocked.
The dog stretched out greatly.
"Who knows?"
"I have lived for so many years and eaten so many ghosts, but I still haven't fully understood these things. Maybe she is a human, maybe she is a ghost, or maybe she is a ghost that has not yet recovered."
"Ghosts naturally feed on humans."
"I hope your brother Zhang will have better luck!"
