Human beings are deceitful, and the flesh is infinitely deduced

Chapter 68

The tunnel is deep and spacious.

Far less narrow and occluded than before.

An Le, who predicted the arrival of the spiritual disaster in advance, naturally made corresponding preparations.

Storing food and firewood is only one aspect.

He also deliberately widened and dug this tunnel a lot deeper, comparable to a hole in the ground.

It is also supported by relatively strong stone materials to prevent collapse.

A large amount of spiritual rice, firewood, and jars of clean water were also piled up in the cave.

Even if the houses on the surface are destroyed, they can survive for a long time in the cave.

No matter how bad it is, you can still go to the couple's home through the tunnel.

After their deaths, the house remained vacant and unoccupied.

Cunning Rabbit Three Caves.

For the safety of her life, Anle felt that such preparations were not safe enough.

But, now is not the time to think about these things.

An Le leaned against the entrance of the tunnel, listening attentively.

Separated by two layers of barriers, it was difficult to distinguish the movement outside in the howling cold wind, only the muffled sound could be heard again and again, like the sound of heavy objects falling on the snow.

There was also a faint echo of heavy breathing.

The tremors on the ground were more pronounced inside the cave.

"It's... a monster!"

Su Dai's face was solemn, and her voice became a little trembling.

"Those who can act in such a cold night are at least level two or higher monsters."

A second-order monster is equivalent to a human foundation-building monk.

But the comparison of combat power is never better than paper data.

Under normal circumstances, practitioners of the same level are weaker than monsters.

It takes two or three people to encircle and kill.

In the cold night, monsters with strong bodies are far more likely to adapt to this harsh weather than humans.

Perhaps it will also mutate in spiritual disasters.

Moreover, Su Dai herself is not a monk who specializes in combat, so it is difficult to fight head-on.

An Le's heart was heavy and he held his breath.

Both fell silent.

Time passed by minute by minute.

The monster is still wandering around, it seems to be picking a suitable target to attack.

The strange panting sound became clearer, accompanied by a unique coercion, spreading.

At some point, An Le felt a delicate body close to her, and it was cold to the touch.

He turned to look at Su Dai.

It was found that the woman's face was pale, her lips were slightly blue, and her whole body was trembling slightly.

Although the temperature inside the tunnel is much warmer than outside.

But the nature of the spiritual disaster is special, different from the ordinary cold winter.

The temperature here has dropped to a dangerous level.

Su Dai is not a cultivator of body training either, and her physique is not much better than that of ordinary people without daring to use her spiritual power to fight the cold.

An Le hesitated for a moment, but still embraced her in his arms, using his own heat to maintain her body temperature.

The bodies of the two were tightly pressed together to keep each other warm.

In this dark and cold burrow, it seemed that only each other's breathing and heartbeat remained.

Fortunately, the worst did not happen.

The ground trembled from near to far, and after wandering for a while, the monster gradually disappeared.

An Le and the two also returned to the house on the surface, and hurriedly rekindled the fire to keep warm with the help of the flames.

******
more than an hour later.

There was a tragic hissing sound from a distance outside the house.

Worse than slaughtering a pig.

Su Dai turned her head to look, and said, "A golden core cultivator has made a move."

An Le nodded.

"That's right, it should have broken into the territory of some cultivation family."

He just felt an extremely strong wave of spiritual power, obviously not something that can be achieved in the foundation building period.

"Damn!"

After saying a word of emotion, An Le's mood became heavy again.

It is conceivable that there must not be only one monster that walked out of the forest due to the spiritual disaster.

This time they were lucky and escaped unharmed.

Will there be such good luck next time?
"I have to think of something else, at least... I have to adapt my body to the horrible weather outside."

An Le thought to himself.

"In the worst case, you can still have the strength to fight, so you won't just sit and wait to die."

Since time travel, he has always been in a state of lack of security.

The current harsh environment undoubtedly magnified this psychology again.

"Not only that, evil spirits must be guarded against, and monsters must also be guarded against."

Thinking of this, An Le asked Su Dai.

"Fellow Daoist Su, I feel that there may be evil spirits appearing in the spiritual disaster."

"Do you have any means to exorcise evil and avoid evil?"

"Exorcise evil and avoid evil?"

Su Dai raised her eyebrows, her expression was strange for some reason.

"The conventional methods include evil spirit talismans, magic tools for exorcising evil, or magic circles for exorcising evil, and there are also some special techniques that can also take effect on evil spirits."

"However, I don't have these things here."

"Evil warding talisman...evil warding talisman..."

An Le muttered to himself, his heart skipped a beat, and he rummaged through the storage bag.

Among Xiang Ren's relics, there are many talismans that he has never seen before.

He took out a stack of talismans and spread them out for Su Dai to help identify.

"Fellow Daoist Su, quickly help me to see, is there any evil spirit talisman here?"

Su Dai glanced twice, and pointed out from the air.

"These are evil spirit talismans."

An Le was overjoyed, and started posting them in the room.

Soon.

Inside the hut, the walls, door panels, ceilings, beams... were all affixed with evil spirit charms.

Just because the quantity is limited, it is impossible to stick it airtight.

It makes Anle quite regretful.

"This benevolence is true, why don't you wear more evil spirit charms?"

He turned to look at Xiao Xiaohong.

A look of disgust appeared on the face of the woman in red.

But that's it.

The evil spirit talisman could not cause substantial damage to her.

An Le was not surprised.

In fact, Xiao Xiaohong has been undergoing subtle changes as she inhales the spiritual power of An Le every day.

The body shape became more solid, and the existence became more hidden.

At the beginning when she was in Chenjia Village, Wan Yinhua and other qi practitioners could detect her aura.

But when they arrived at Akabane Manor, the usual foundation building couldn't find her.

Su Dai's performance also proves this point from the side.

"Fellow Daoist Su, in the eyes of the Foundation Establishment cultivator, what does Xie Chong... look like?"

Taking advantage of this opportunity, An Le asked by the way.

"After the foundation is established, the practitioner will have a spiritual consciousness, and the mind can observe the surroundings outside the body, and then can vaguely perceive the existence of evil spirits."

Su Dai didn't hide anything, she explained.

"Weak evil spirits are like some residual souls and spirits. I can directly see through their appearance with my spiritual sense."

"However, there is also a gap between evil spirits."

"For a slightly stronger evil spirit, I can only see a vague outline."

"Anyone with a higher personality may look no different from a living person."

The words paused, and Su Dai continued to speak.

"It is said that after reaching the golden core, the cultivator can directly look at the evil spirits."

After hearing these words, An Le benefited a lot.

Su Dai also told him that the evil spirit talisman may not be effective for all evil spirits.

In the eyes of powerful evil spirits, the evil spirit talisman is like a foul-smelling thing, so they usually choose to avoid it.

But there are always some special evil spirits, maybe they will be attracted by the smell instead.

******
The next day, two o'clock in the morning.

During the deduction process.

An Le put on Xiang Ren's high-level robes and instruments, and made adequate preparations.

Opened the door for the first time.

　Thanks to "Dark Pavilion", "That's Cantonese" and "Jiange" for their reward of 100 coins!thank you very much!
