Occupational sacrifice

Chapter 69 Demon?
"Those who cannot get are always in turmoil, those who are favored are confident..."

On this day, Zhang Buyi hummed an old song from his previous life, rode a horse, and walked leisurely.

Following his singing, a little bit of inexplicable fluctuations spread, and the horse under its crotch walked happily, as if it was moving forward happily, and there were still a few green birds hovering above its head, refusing to leave for a long time.

It seemed to be attracted by Zhang Buyi's singing, and also by his breath, and followed the old man for a long distance.

Zhang Buyi kept trying with a smile.

This is what he discovered in the past few days. He discovered that this so-called emotional trait is not weakly attractive to animals. When his temperament has traits, it is easy to gain the favor of animals.

When singing, there is an inexplicable attraction, especially love songs, the love words are even more terrifying, and it resonates with others extremely, it is a mental shock!

This couldn't help but remind him of the information when the characteristics were obtained before.

[In addition, except for girls, some special groups will naturally feel that you are very kind and fatally attractive. Please carefully exude your temperament so as not to unlock any strange experiences! 】

At first, he thought that this special group was a little brother with some special hobbies, but now it seems that he was thinking too much.His characteristics are still very pure!
Suddenly, the singing Zhang Buyi paused, and the horse under his crotch also sensed Zhang Buyi's movement and stopped.

With some doubts and searching eyes, Zhang Buyi looked towards the front of the mountain road. There seemed to be a white figure vaguely in a bush.

The curious peeping eyes and strange aura made Zhang Buyi look puzzled, and hesitantly said: "Monster? No way, this kind of thing should be rare nowadays."

Following Zhang Buyi's actions, the white figure quietly watching him in the bushes, seemed to be frightened by something, turned into an afterimage, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"Really a spirit demon? Chase!" Zhang Buyi was overjoyed, he slapped his horse's ass, and the horse immediately understood, and under the blessing of Zhang Buyi's mana, he galloped out quickly.

After the ancient roads were ruined, during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, demons, ghosts and other messy things did not fall.Of course, some of them exist, and like the hundreds of schools of the human race, they have opened up new paths.

For example, the red sleeves of the fox clan add fragrance, the snake clan swallows (harmonious) refined spirits, and the cranes serve Confucianism and shortcuts, and many other monster clans have new paths, but they have indeed declined.

Although there are many monsters in the later era, it is rare for a big monster to be born, and there are not many evil spirits harming the world.

When Da Chen was wiped out by Zhu Yuanzhang, the great ancestor of the Xia Dynasty, Confucianism and Taoism remained the same, but practitioners began to retreat inexplicably, and these mountain spirits and ghosts became even rarer.

In the early years of Daxia, I could occasionally see it. The great Confucian Pu Songling relied on these things to achieve success.But the further back, the fewer practitioners, and the rarer these mountain spirits and ghosts.

However, with the resurgence of practitioners in recent years, these mountain spirits and ghosts are also showing signs of resurgence.They seem to experience the same ups and downs as practitioners.

In 1935, when Zhang Buyi traveled through time, although mountain spirits and ghosts also began to recover, they were still rare and almost disappeared on weekdays.

Now suddenly seeing an animal that is suspected to have become a spirit, its breath is still weak, and there is no danger, Zhang Buyi's curiosity is completely aroused, and he can't help but chase after it.

As a pure Chinese son and daughter, who doesn't want to see a demon, it's better to have a cat ear girl or something.

Some LSPs even want to be like Ning Caichen or Xu Xian!
······
What made Zhang Buyi speechless was that the thing didn't know if it was good at hiding or something, it disappeared completely in just a blink of an eye.

Unwillingly, Zhang Buyi chased the old man for a long distance, but he couldn't find any trace.

He tried to sing two more songs to his heart's content, and he attracted a lot of birds, including butterflies and bees, but he didn't see the little guy.

When Zhang Buyi was about to give up speechlessly, he found a deserted mountain village in front of the road.

The mountain village is very dilapidated, but Zhang Buyi felt a little bit of a strange atmosphere permeating it. He paused, looked at the sky that was already getting dark, hesitated, and stepped into it.

The mountain village is dilapidated, most of which are thatched houses, which look like they have been in disrepair for a long time.In today's Great Xia, many villages are similar to this.

Zhang Buyi stepped into it and found that most of the houses had been abandoned. If it wasn't for the smoke rising from a corner of the village, Zhang Buyi would have thought that this was an abandoned village with no one in it.

He led the horse, came to the only popular hut in the village, and called, "Is anyone there?"

In the room, an old man in his seventies came out tremblingly. In the kitchen, an old woman who was also old also stepped out of the kitchen, and they all looked at Zhang Buyi.

The two old people looked at Zhang Buyi with old and cloudy eyes.

"Master, I'm passing by here on my way, can I stay overnight?" Zhang Buyi showed a smile, looked at the old man and said, "I can pay!"

The old woman looked at her wife, and the old man looked Zhang Buyi up and down, saw that he looked like a scholar, and said: "You don't need to pay, there is still a room at home, if you don't mind having a baby, you can live in that room." .”

"Don't dislike it, don't dislike it!" Zhang Buyi said with a smile on his face.

Then Zhang Buyi tied the horse under the guidance of the old man, and the two chatted about homework.

"Are there only old folks in the village?" Zhang Buyi asked.

The old man nodded silently, and Zhang Buyi asked in confusion, "What about the other families? Have they all moved away?"

"A few years ago, the Japanese pirates suddenly came, and they died and ran away. The few old bones left have also disappeared inexplicably in the past few years, and our old couple will die."

In the calm words of the old man, what he said was not such a peaceful thing, but the scorching world.

Zhang Buyi paused, didn't know how to answer the conversation for a while, and finally said: "It will get better!"

"Really? I hope, anyway, I probably won't be able to see it." The old man replied like this.

Zhang Buyi was completely silent, and followed the old man to a room.The old man opened the door, Zhang Buyi followed in and took a look, the inside seemed to be tidy, there was even a small bookshelf.

"Young child, you can live in this room tonight. This room is the room that my kid used to have. It has been cleaned all these years, and it can still be used by people." The old man said.

Zhang Buyi looked around the room and asked doubtfully, "Old man, where is your son?"

The old man paused, and said calmly, "Dead!"

The voice was unusually calm, like the lake in his heart that could no longer be turned upside down, a pool of stagnant water.

"Then...there are still juniors here?" Zhang Buyi asked hesitantly.

The old man shook his head, and said in an inexplicable tone: "It's just me and my wife who have survived until now."

Zhang Buyi was silent again, and after spending a short time together, he clearly felt the hardships of this world.

Zhang Buyi changed direction and chose to chat about household chores.

Through chatting, Zhang Buyi knew that the old man's name was Hou Tianping. The whole village was originally named Hou, and it was called Houjiacun. Now the species is probably about to become extinct. The two old men are truly lonely existences!

After chatting with the old man for a while, he declined the old man's dinner invitation, saying that he had dry food, and he just stayed overnight.Seeing this, the old man no longer persisted.

After Zhang Buyi was alone, he walked around the room and looked at the books on the small bookshelf.It was discovered that the old man's son should still be a scholar.

Looking at it like this, maybe he was originally a wealthy household in the village, or a scholar or something.After not finding any traces of monks, Zhang Buyi ignored it.

He went out and wandered around again, the strange smell he felt before, but now he looked carefully, it seemed that he found nothing, after searching for a long time without any results, Zhang Buyi had no choice but to go back to the room.

Sitting cross-legged on the bed, he began to practice.

After one turn, the speed of practice obviously slowed down a lot, but correspondingly, the other template turned a lot easier.

Especially the Taoist template, which has already reached the peak of its cultivation base, and its fate is enough for one turn of talisman.

The reason why he didn't activate the first turn immediately was because Zhang Buyi hadn't decided whether to solidify the characteristics, or to comprehend the advanced secret skills to the first turn, and then solidify the secret skills to complete the first turn.

······
Just like that, Zhang Buyi practiced until midnight, when he suddenly opened his eyes with a flash of light.

He got up and quietly left the room, his mana fluctuated slightly, and jumped onto the roof.

Looking around, Zhang Buyi frowned and whispered: "I felt something was wrong when I passed by before, this village looks really strange!"

While speaking, his eyes flashed with inspiration, and he checked for a while. After a few ups and downs, he came to a corner of the village.

"Is this...a ghost and a spirit demon?" Zhang Buyi looked at the scene in front of him, and he was a little stunned.

In Zhang Buyi's flashing eyes, a half-foot long white fox was confronting a phantom.

Both of them are slightly intelligent, surrounded by ghostly phantom shadows and cold aura, while the half-sized white fox bared its teeth as a deterrent.

The two things confronted each other, and there was no immediate fight. It seemed that one wanted to come to the village, but the other refused.And it looks like this isn't the first fight.

The appearance of the ghost, judging from its attire, vaguely shows the appearance of a Japanese pirate.

Watching this scene completely aroused Zhang Buyi's curiosity.

First carefully checked the cultivation of the two things, and found that they were both intermediate apprentices, Zhang Buyi felt relieved.

The scalpel emerged from his hand, and under the control of Zhang Buyi's mind, it turned into a strange bandage.

"go with!"

Following Zhang Buyi's movements, the bandages turned into white silk-like restraints, binding the confronting fox and ghost tightly.

"Woooo!"

Sudden surprise attack, the ghosts roared incessantly.

"Chirp!"

The fox also struggled and blew, but it was all in vain.
