Lord of the Tricks

Chapter 6 Hungry Ghost Black Goat (Thanks to Wei XX for the leader)
After Yu Ziqing thought for a while, he immediately ended the process of thinking about dolls.

It was once imagined that this place was a blood-and-sweat mine, with fat overseers wielding barbed whips, forcing the trafficked people to do dangerous and hard mining work without enough food, so that The death rate is too high, so people have to keep buying people from Ren Yazi.

It's a pity that it turned out to be completely different from what he thought, and the water here was much deeper than he thought.

No matter how you look at it, ordinary villagers are not ordinary.

But they are sitting on a precious resource, and the proportion is ridiculously high.

And no one came to capture this place and take away the mine.

Forget it, I'd better listen to Lao Yang's advice honestly, don't meddle in other people's business, it's best not to have too much curiosity, wait until the body recovers, add some supplies, and leave here before the beginning of spring.

Follow Erhan all the way forward, and enter one of the earthen cave dwellings that I saw at first. The space inside is much larger and empty than expected.

There were bursts of orange-red halos in the depths, and the heat seemed to be controlled by an invisible force. Walking a few steps forward, the temperature rose a little in a straight line. Yu Ziqing followed Erhan within ten steps, and his body had already started sweat.

"Erhan, you go, I'll wait here..."

Resolutely admit it.

"Ah..." Erhan looked dazed, and pointed inside: "Aren't you going to take a look with me?"

"Forget it, you go and put your things first, I'll wait for you here."

Erhan was a little confused, so he continued to walk inward with the tray in his hand. After about ten steps, the heat distorted the air, making his body look distorted. After walking a few more steps, all his people could only see one Blurred phantom.

Yu Ziqing smacked his lips, heh, is this an ordinary person?

Outrageous.

Have they really not carried out the so-called practice?
A moment later, Erhan came out from the depths of the fiery cave, his face was neither red nor his heart was beating, just looking at his expression, no matter how he looked at it, he seemed to regret not secretly eating some yellow rice cakes that looked like fresh magma...

"Is that thing precious?" Yu Ziqing couldn't help asking.

"That's not so precious." Erhan was instantly interested and licked his lips: "Only when the ore is exchanged with outsiders every year, everyone can get a little bit."

"Before that..." Yu Ziqing felt that he didn't know if he could ask this question when he asked, but he didn't know more and stored more information, so he felt very uneasy.

"Oh, they are the exception. Grandpa said that starving to death is the most miserable way to die. Although they ate white meat and made a big mistake, it was because they were too hungry. If they die, they will be full ghosts. A dead person will become a starving ghost.

Although I will never starve to death again, but I can no longer eat, so I can only endure the hunger all the time, even if I am hungry, I will not die. "

Erhan paused for a while, and a little panic about "I can't live, I can't die" appeared on my face.

"Grandpa has a good heart, that's why he let them be dead ghosts, at least they'll be fine if they die."

Speaking of this, Erhan seemed to think of something, walked out of the kiln quickly, and pointed to a large cave entrance on the northwest hillside. The cave entrance was surrounded by a fence, and a large net made of rattan was fastened to the cave entrance.

"You can't go there, there are many starving ghosts inside, and those starving ghosts are different from the ones I encountered before, and they are all very fierce.

There used to be a river in it, where a lot of fish could be caught, and a lot of worms could be dug up by the river, but unfortunately I can’t go there now, as I haven’t eaten worms for a long time. "

Erhan licked his lips, and when he mentioned food, his eyes lit up.

"Are you starving..." Yu Ziqing didn't know what he thought of, and his expression was slightly subtle.

Turning around the village, I came to the entrance of a cave that was three feet high. I saw a short but strong woman, carrying a wooden stake three feet thick and two feet long, from the hole. walk out.

It wasn't until the other party walked out of the burrow that Yu Ziqing saw that on the other end of the stake, there were clusters of large flowers shaped like oyster mushrooms.

Yu Ziqing reckoned that this should be the main food in the village. After all, he hadn't seen any staple food cultivated here, nor had anyone grown vegetables.

Moreover, the thick brown wooden stakes have been seen before, and they should be the firewood they chopped for burning.

Erhan took Yu Ziqing into the cave, walked down for about a stick of incense, and came to a huge underground space. Inside, you can see wooden piles standing on the ground, with large fungus clustered on the top , like a canopy opened, exuding bursts of fungi-specific fragrance.

What I know now is the content of Yu Ziqing's next work.

Gather ingredients, go back to cook, if nothing else happens, this job will take at least three months, or even longer, this winter will be very long.

Yu Ziqing also hopes that everything will be more stable, at least let him take care of his body, and ideally, he can gain twenty or thirty catties.

Erhan was waving an ax to chop mushrooms. It looked like a thick wooden stake, but its roots were more like cork, with very low hardness. This made Yu Ziqing heave a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that he would not be able to do it.

Just after the demonstration here, Erhan suddenly stood up and looked into the depths of the mushroom forest vigilantly.

Two breaths later, a wooden stake in the forest suddenly collapsed, and a tumbling dark red giant fell to the ground from the upper umbrella. The encircling giant python has a noticeable head, but it has obvious insect mouthparts.

"Insects." Erhan cheered, his body was wrapped in strong winds, like a powerful arrow, he flew away, and immediately wrestled with the giant insect.

Yu Ziqing stood far away, his eyes followed the sudden induction in his heart, and looked deeper.

On the stone wall in the distance, a guy with dry skin, thinning hair, and a sunken and sunken belly, as if his internal organs were gone, like a mummy, covered in black, was lying there quietly.

He seemed to be integrated with the surrounding stone walls. When he saw Yu Ziqing's gaze, he raised his head slightly, slowly revealing his sharp teeth. His body was like a gecko, and he walked slowly against the stone wall. come over.

In his pitch-black eyes, Yu Ziqing's reflection also began to be projected, and the solidified ferocious expression seemed to be showing infinite malice at this moment, driving his limbs to criss-cross faster and faster, silently towards Yu Ziqing. come clear.

"Hungry ghost?"

Yu Ziqing was startled, because Erhan had just heard that there were starving ghosts nearby, and he didn't expect to meet them so soon.

Taking another look at Erhan, who was rolled into a ball with the worm in the distance, with only meat in his eyes, Yu Ziqing immediately understood that it was the giant worm that found the starving ghost and fell down suddenly when it was disturbed.

But the moment the thought turned, Yu Ziqing looked again and immediately denied it.

No, not an ordinary starving ghost, but a hungry ghost.

Ordinary people like Erhan, who can laugh loudly in hand-to-hand combat with giant insects, have not found the starving ghost, and he has no reason or ability to find out.

Only a hungry ghost can give Erhan the first step to give birth to a reaction without him noticing it.

After confirming, Yu Ziqing slowly took out the rusty dagger, looked at the hungry ghost quietly, and murmured in a low voice.

"I don't want to kill you, don't court death."

I didn't make any preparations, but the rusty rust between the sword body and the scabbard was like dust, blown by the wind gently, and then fell down, a faint black light, like overflowing water , slowly overflowing from the gap.

Erhan, who was still fighting with the giant worm, was flying gravel and the stakes were falling apart, but he didn't feel anything.

But the hungry ghost who was gradually approaching at a faster speed seemed to feel a fatal crisis. His body that seemed to be flying against the stone wall stopped suddenly, and the invisible and terrible pressure pressed his limbs and torso against the stone wall. Shengsheng pressed a human form on the stone wall, he was so frightened that he couldn't escape, and he couldn't even scream.

Seeing the opponent's body getting thinner and the brilliance in his eyes getting weaker, Yu Ziqing looked at his abdomen, sighed secretly, and put away the dagger in his hand, that kind of terrifying murderous intent that only hungry ghosts can feel, Only then suddenly dissipated.

"Seeing that you have no viscera, and you don't have a bloody aura on your body, you must have never harmed anyone, and you have never been stained with blood.

If you are ignorant, you will not be able to persevere until now. This is not easy, so why give up suddenly and turn to evil ways that harm others.

If you take this step, you will have no way back, and there will be no day of liberation.

Do you really want to do this? "

Yu Ziqing murmured, but the hungry ghost heard it clearly.

The hungry ghost's expression was dull, and he stayed in place for a few breaths before suddenly waking up. There was a hint of complexity in his dark eyes, and he disappeared into the darkness in an instant.

Yu Ziqing put the dagger back into his arms and shook his head.

If something else had just appeared, Yu Ziqing would not even have the thought of being merciful, and would have immediately... called Erhan to save his life.

It's a pity that it is a miserable hungry ghost. If it is not necessary, he really doesn't want to kill him. When he first came to this world, he had intersected with hungry ghosts, and he was able to survive the first month in this world , It also has a lot to do with hungry ghosts.

"It's fine if others come to bully me, but you, a hungry ghost, dare to trouble me, aren't you out of your mind?"

……

"It's alright for the people from Daqian Langya Court to bully us, but now any cat or dog dares to trouble us?"

It is not far from the mountains where the Jinlan Mine is located, where Yu Ziqing once destroyed his corpse.

The remains of the fire had been blown away by the wind, and with the heavy snow in the past few days, basically all the traces of what happened here were gone, only the unburned bones of the shepherds remained. Buried under the snow.

A black goat with tendons all over its limbs and a person's height was chewing the bones of the shepherds while swearing and swearing.

A moment later, the black goat's face was distorted, with a disgusted expression after eating Ollie, and with a groan, he spit out the chewed bones on the ground, wisps of fiery breath were fleeting on the bones.

In the mouth of the black goat, there were also burnt black marks.

The other person next to him, a thin figure in a black robe covering his face, let out a slight gasp when he saw this.

"Such a strong and pure blazing yang energy is definitely not from the people of Daqian Langya Yuan. They look down on those reckless people who are as angry and bloody as dragons and as hot as the scorching sun. The wilderness has changed drastically. Those who come must be cultivators. Lead the team in person, there will be no such reckless people.

What's more, if you're really from Langya Yuan, you won't deal with it so...roughly. "
