I played the world alone

Chapter 465 My face is missing (-in-)

But looking at their ambitious young faces, Lu Chen had something he didn't say: "The most deadly thing that kills people is not natural disasters, but man-made disasters..."

Then he didn't pour cold water on them, but continued to teach them other made-up spells.

After they can roughly recite it, let them practice it by themselves, while he practices slowly and continues to condense his spiritual energy.

……

Although they were passionate and ambitious, they found it very difficult when they actually started practicing the spell.

After stumblingly reciting a series of incantations, I felt as if there was an invisible force surging in my body.

They were excited for a moment, but then they felt that those powers suddenly disappeared.

At the same time, I also felt extremely tired mentally, as if I hadn't slept well in several days.

For a moment, I almost wanted to fall down and take a good rest.

As for the effect of the spell the old god mentioned before?

absolutely not!

They were using the spell to pray for rain, but they didn't see any rain at all. The sky was still sunny, and the occasional clouds were not dark clouds.

It's true that there were a few gusts of wind blowing just now, I don't know if that counts.

But the gap is too big!

They doubted whether their practice method was wrong, and hurriedly went to the old god for advice.

The old immortal touched his beard and chuckled: "How can you learn immortal skills casually? You have to practice hard, which can be as short as one or two years, or as long as more than ten years, before you can see it. Results.”

"Remember, this is the way to save the common people. Don't rush for quick success or quick success. Otherwise, you will harm others and yourself, and the consequences will be disastrous!"

Only then did the two of them realize it, nodded repeatedly, and continued to practice diligently outside.

What Master said makes so much sense!

If this ability to defy nature could be learned easily, what value would it have? With one move, wouldn't the world be in chaos?

Only with enough perseverance and hard work can one be worthy of such power! Only then can he be worthy of the great righteousness of saving the common people!

They become more determined and practice harder.

Lu Chen, who was slowly condensing his spiritual energy inside the ruined temple, sensed the efforts of the two people outside and felt relieved while shaking his head.

The soul strength of these two people is still a bit low.

They have neither spiritual roots nor special talents. Even their bodies are very weak. They just had a full meal with their own help today. They are just two little beggars who can be seen everywhere.

If he hadn't found them pleasing to his eyes and granted them a blessing, their fate in the future would probably not be very good, and they might die someday in the near future.

And I don't intend to let them fly into the sky, but slowly hone them.

Special magic like praying for rain involves too many aspects.

The amount of mental energy required will also be extremely staggering.

If the two of them are currently in the foundation building stage, they may stir up a storm. If they are only in the Qi training stage, they may be able to summon a few drops of rain from a dark cloud.

But the two of them are just mortals now, and they are also mentally weak.

There is no way to use this level of magic, not even if you drain their souls.

Therefore, we can only exhaust the soul power again and again, slowly recover it, and then drain it...

This cycle goes back and forth, each time the recovery will be more than before, this will continue to strengthen their souls little by little until they can be used one day.

Given their ages and their perseverance, it is estimated that this day will not last long.

Of course, Lu Chen probably wouldn't be able to see it.

He turned his attention away from the two teenagers and looked towards the sky.

The sky was getting dark. After the fiery dusk, the sun had already set on the other side of the mountain, and the earth was gradually shrouded in darkness.

But now there are only three of them left in this ruined temple in the wilderness, which looks particularly cold and desolate.

After practicing all afternoon, Lu Chen, whose strength had reached the second level of Qi training, slowly breathed a sigh of relief and felt that his energy was better.

Then, he looked in the direction of the nearest city and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

"The show is almost ready to begin..."

Let the two children practice by themselves without disturbing them. Worrying about whether there would be wild beasts, Lu Chen casually arranged the next formation to avoid possible accidents.

Although the cultivation level on the second level of the current Qi training period is not very strong, and it is far less than his own body, he still has a hundred spiritual energy, and some simple formations are enough to cope with it.

Then, he took out the "Hundred Ghosts Picture", looked at the ghosts on it, and flicked it with his palm.

Wherever it crossed, the ghost shadows disappeared one by one, leaving only a dark yellow white paper background.

"Go."

As soon as he finished speaking, streaks of black smoke flew out quickly and disappeared into the surrounding black shadows.

Follow his instructions and head to the nearest city.

……

Yongzhou City.

It was night and the city gates were closed.

Because it was not war time, but there were many beggars and homeless people from outside gathering outside the city. In order to avoid people sneaking in and causing trouble, there were still some soldiers guarding the city patrolling the city walls. A slight sound came from the armor.

The torches inserted into the wall cast a warm, dark light. The moss in the gaps between the city wall bricks was looming, and there seemed to be a black gecko-like shadow crawling across the corners.

But none of the soldiers standing nearby, chatting or dozing, noticed. Or even if he saw it, he just thought it was because he was too sleepy. When he rubbed his eyes and looked again, there was no shadow anywhere.

In the city, some of the not-so-wide alleys still had lights on, and some were already dark. Only a few whispers and coughs could be heard, and some were the sounds of babies crying.

As the night got darker, the whole city became quieter.

On the deserted street, a middle-aged man wearing a gray robe walked swaying.

He held a lantern in his right hand and a clapper hung around his neck, tapping it rhythmically.

"It's dry and dry, so be careful with the candles. ..."

It was the watchman who told the time.

However, this person seemed to have drank before setting off. His face was red and his steps were a little sloppy. Fortunately, he had been walking this road for several years and was already familiar with it, so he would not miss the mark and fall.

But at this moment, he inadvertently looked up and saw a person squatting in a corner not far away with his back to him.

He paused, rubbed his eyes, took out the lantern and took a closer look to make sure he saw it correctly.

She looks like a young woman, and her clothes are quite good, so she probably comes from a wealthy family.

But the strange thing is that this woman's shoulders hunched slightly, and at the same time there were bursts of sobbing sounds. She looked particularly pitiful and helpless in the cold wind in the middle of the night.

The watchman was already drunk, and he didn't think about whether it was reasonable or not. In addition, he was a widower and hadn't touched a woman for a long time. Yan Yu was afraid of scaring the other person, so she walked over slowly step by step.

"Hiccup...this...this girl..."

He walked less than one step behind the woman, trying to keep his breath smooth, and then he said hehe, "Are you in any trouble? Or is it too dark and you can't find your way home?"

"Don't... don't be afraid. If you need anything, tell me and I can help you!"

While speaking, he secretly glanced down at the woman's figure and couldn't help but swallow his saliva. Tsk tsk, with this figure, the skin is white and tender, I'm afraid it's just like that for those wealthy ladies who don't leave the house.

He couldn't help but wonder if there would be a chance to touch it later and it would be considered a profit!

Just as he was imagining, he suddenly heard the woman's sobbing and crying stop, and then came a faint questioning voice: "Good Samaritan, I can't find something. I can't go back without it, can you help me?" Shall I look for it?"

Listening to that delicate voice, the watchman felt even more energetic, with steam rising from his nostrils.

"Girl, just ask me! I am most familiar with this street. I will help you find it tonight!"

At the same time, he was secretly cursing the girl's owner for being such an inhumane person for bullying a little girl like this. I guess I lost some jewelry or something...

But the next second, he suddenly saw the woman raise her head.

The black hair is hanging down, but there are no facial features, only a flat and smooth human skin.

Under the white light of his own lantern, it looked particularly strange and terrifying.

For a moment, the watchman was stunned. Looking at that "face", his mind went blank.

"My face is missing, please help me find it..."

This sound instantly brought him back to his senses. His scalp was numb. He yelled in fear and stepped back. However, he tripped and fell to the ground, causing his butt to split into four pieces.

But there was no time to care about this at the moment. He was so frightened that he screamed and ran away behind him.

……

In a quiet small courtyard, the candlelight has not been extinguished.

A young scholar dressed simply was still reading at night by the lantern.

There was a bowl of soup on the table, which his mother had cooked and brought before, but he was too focused on it and forgot about it, and now it is cold.

"Ugh……"

After reading the article in his hand, he couldn't help but put down the book with a sigh, feeling increasingly restless and uneasy.

"When can I write such a good article like this?"

"I'm afraid I'll never be able to go to high school again..."

He also fantasized that he would be the top scorer in high school, or at least the top three, and become famous all over the world. He would no longer be limited by this poor family and could marry a beautiful girl.

But now it seems that it is just an unattainable fantasy.

He sighed heavily again, picked up the book and wanted to read it again, but he only felt that every word was heart-wrenching, his eyes were dazzled and he had a headache.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

"Dong dong dong..."

He immediately frowned and shouted without raising his head: "I told you not to disturb me when I'm reading! How can I read if my thoughts are interrupted?"

"I can't read today, it's all because of you!"

He cursed and cursed, feeling that he had found a better excuse for his stupidity.

But the voice coming from outside the door at this moment was not that of his parents, but the voice of a very soft and charming woman whom he had never heard before.

"Young Master, I have long heard that you are knowledgeable, elegant and charming, and I have been fascinated by you for a long time. I came here to meet you today. If you don't give up, I hope to open the door and meet you..."

The scholar was stunned for a moment, his heart skipped a beat, and he felt vaguely strange.

He looked away from the book and looked outside through the bright and dancing light of the candle.

There was indeed a dark shadow there.

But the strange thing is that my family is not a wealthy family without maids to take care of me. I am also an only child and have no sisters. How could a strange woman suddenly appear?

Moreover, the wall of my own courtyard is not too short. Even if I want to climb over the wall, it would be a bit troublesome, let alone a woman.

"Is it because the door is not closed?"

Immediately, he asked: "Who are you? How did you get in?"

But there was only a woman's delicate laughter coming from outside the door, but there was no answer.

Instead, he knocked on the door again, which was particularly loud in the dark night.

The scholar felt more and more suspicious, but his steps began to move subconsciously.

He stood up and walked quietly to the door. But he heard the woman's laughter seemed a little farther away, but she still asked no questions and didn't answer.

He grabbed a defensive stick placed by the door, and then slowly opened the door.

There was no one outside the door, only the moonlight was shining, and the shadows of the trees were clustered on the floor tiles.

Just when he was wondering, he suddenly heard the woman's delicate laughter again.

This time it was a little clearer than before.

But it's not beside you or in front of your door, but not far away.

He subconsciously looked up and suddenly saw the head of a beautiful woman sticking out from the courtyard wall. She had picturesque features, much prettier than the woman in Yanliu Lane!

When he looked, the woman happened to be smiling at him, and at the same time, her little cherry mouth spit out two words sweetly: "Young Master..."

But the scholar was only fascinated for a moment, and the next second he saw the gray and cold courtyard wall, he reacted with a shudder, his pupils shrank, and he fell back with a pale face in fright.

Because he knew how high his courtyard wall was, and when he was bored, he tried to raise his hand to reach a height higher than himself.

But this woman can poke her head out...

So he almost didn't dare to think about what was under this woman's head. His mind subconsciously thought of the legend of a beautiful snake...

Sure enough, in the next second, the woman's head slowly flew over the top of the courtyard wall. Below it was a long, snake-like neck, winding and twisted.

"I just knocked on the door and my head hurts so much. Master, please help me..."

"what!"

Seeing such a horrifying scene, the scholar suddenly let out a shrill scream and fainted.

……

At this moment, there are far more than these two similar supernatural cases in the entire city.

At this moment, anyone who was still asleep, whether they were working in the house or wandering out, encountered something scary.

I don’t know if it’s a ghost, but it’s definitely not a human being!

For a time, many people were so frightened that they fainted on the spot. Some people were so frightened that they peed their pants and wished they could faint.

Of course, there are also some people who are confident that they are brave and have a strong character. They think it is too noisy and curse and do not believe in evil. They insist on seeing with their own eyes whether those things are really that evil or if someone is pretending to be a ghost.

It's just that I didn't come back for a long time after I went there.

When others braved it to look, they found that he was lying on the ground unconscious.

At least there is still one breath left.

The whole city seemed to be in panic this night...
