Lord of Earth Fiend

Chapter 72
(Workers ask for all kinds of support on May Day!)
The two gods are attacking together, and they are skillful in cooperating. It is obvious that they have practiced some kind of powerful combined attack technique. Sometimes one hits and the other hits down; sometimes one attacks the left and the other attacks the right...

Although there are two people, they act like one person when they move their hands.

One person, four hands, four feet, and two mourning sticks.

Chen Jin had never experienced such a battle before, and he was suddenly at a disadvantage, outstretched, and almost got hit.

When Lai Zhishu saw it from behind, he couldn't help muttering: The situation seems to be bad, this old brother Chen is really overbearing, and now he is suppressed by the opponent, he can only parry, but has no power to fight back.

Gu Leyou's face was serious, and he held the Chiyue Sword in his hand, ready to take part in the battle at any time.After all, the opponent fights two against one, so he doesn't talk about martial arts at all.

Since practicing martial arts, Chen Jin has actually not participated in many actual combats.In the past, no matter whether it was facing the psychic psychic of the fairy family's shaman, or knocking down the thief Buoyed Tiger, the main focus was on surprise.As for those who assassinated the porters, their strengths vary greatly, and there is not much reference value.

Now in this battle, it can be regarded as meeting a good player.

Instead of being surprised, he was overjoyed, a momentum surged in his heart, and he continuously performed the eight-stroke sword style.At the beginning, there were jerky parts, but as the mind eased, it gradually became more tactful.

From learning swords to practicing swords, and then to using swords in actual combat, every stage is equal to a leap.

"it is good!"

Seeing that Chen Jin had stabilized the situation, Gu Leyou, who was in the battle, couldn't help cheering loudly.

Lai Zhishu also breathed a sigh of relief, and praised: "Good swordsmanship!"

Unable to attack for a long time, the left and right goalkeepers inevitably felt a little anxious. They looked at each other, raised the mourning sticks, crossed and collided with each other, and made a muffled "pop".

In an instant, there was the sound of ghosts crying, and a puff of black air swept up, shadowy and shadowy, enveloping countless evil spirits and evil spirits.

The mourning sticks of the two are not ordinary weapons, but magical weapons, which have been specially refined. Once activated, they can mobilize ghosts to help.Waiting for an opponent to be rushed by many evils, people can't stand it anymore.

Chen Jin was not afraid at all, with a long howl, the sword styles were connected, and suddenly there was a wonderful change, the tip of the sword was like a glow, and it hit the left door god's chest accurately with a chirp.

The left door god was hit by the sword, and he quickly backed away, thereby creating a considerable distance from the right door god.

The momentum of the two attacking together was immediately disintegrated.

"I see!"

Chen Jin let out a long laugh, ignoring the right door god, and strode forward, but he used the method of "light body skill", his speed soared, and he caught up with the left door god in a blink of an eye, and the edge of his sword slashed.

Sword-cutting style!
With a click, the head of the Zuomen God was cut off and fell to the ground.

Strangely, there was no blood splashed out.The head fell to the ground, and it didn't move for a while, and then the body fell down, light and light, completely different from a real person.

The remaining one, the right door god, turned around abruptly and galloped into Li Village.

The many will-o'-the-wisps that had gathered around quickly left, and everything returned to calm.

"Paper figurine, it really is a pierced paper figurine!"

Gu Leyou stepped forward to inspect the left door god whose head was in a different place, and found that it was made of paper, with paper as the skin and bamboo strips as the skeleton, with various foreign objects inside: "It's so evil..."

At this time, the east has already turned pale, and the sky is about to dawn.

Gu Leyou greeted: "Scholar, come and rest in the car for a while and have something to eat."

Before they came, they had prepared dry food, jerky and other things.

This battle cost Chen Jin a lot of energy. After all, he hadn't reached the third level of "cleansing the marrow".

Lai Zhishu hurriedly said: "Brother Chen, I have Jingyuan Pills here, take one, and you will be fierce immediately."

Gu Leyou's eyes lit up: "I forgot about this, Lao Lai, you know how to make alchemy."

Lai Zhishu laughed and said, "This Jingyuan Pill is the only one that can be used."

Chen Jin took it, the oval was like a fruit with a pit, and it smelled a fragrance that penetrated the heart, and it was a good medicine.Take it immediately, chew it, and swallow it.

Then he closed his eyes and rested his mind for a while, then suddenly opened his eyes, all fatigue was swept away, and praised: "Brother Lai, this medicine is extraordinary, it must be very precious."

Lai Zhishu replied: "It is made from 36 kinds of medicines. After one year, it can only be refined into nine furnaces. There are only one hundred pills in total. It is specially used to treat fatigue and consumption."

Gu Leyou stared at him: "Lao Lai, you speak so carefully, do you want to give you money?"

Lai Zhishu quickly distinguished: "Am I the kind of person who cares about every detail? I'm also a part of what happened tonight, so naturally I have to contribute."

Gu Leyou chuckled: "That's about the same... But I heard that the best-selling place for your Jingyuan Pill is Chunfeng Building. Those guys who have been hollowed out by wine and sex have money and aspirations, but they are powerless, so they like this medicine." .After eating it, the spirit of dragon and tiger became fierce immediately.”

Lai Zhi wrote with a red face: "I am only in charge of refining and selling medicine. As for how the people who buy medicine eat it, it is their business."

Chen Jin joked: "Taoist, do you need to take medicine?"

Gu Leyou suddenly became anxious: "Is that possible? I am a strong man who can fight with others for [-] rounds. I don't need to take any medicine."

There is a jovial air in the air when such a subject comes up.

Lai Zhishu did not forget to flatter and say: "Brother Chen, your swordsmanship is really incomparable. And the body technique of chasing and attacking. In my opinion, it must come from the 'Yueyan' in the Earth Sha technique."

Gu Leyou clapped his hands: "It looks like it, but I don't know which version it is."

What they were talking about was "Light of One's Body".

Chen Jin didn't know this, and asked, "I learned it from my uncle. Is Yueyan a light skill?"

Lai Zhishu replied: "For rock jumpers, the techniques of light body lifting and vertical lifting have evolved into various techniques. Some focus on jumping, some focus on their own lightness, and some focus on footwork."

When Chen Jin heard it, he immediately understood that the "Lightness of the Body" he had learned should belong to the category that focused on his own lightness.

In this world, whether it is Taoism or martial arts, as long as it is high-grade, most of them come from "Earth Sha 72 Techniques", which is not surprising.

Gu Leyou looked at him with strange eyes. The "Three Evil Scrolls" left by Taoist Izumo has three skills, which are already quite a lot. After studying for so many years, Gu Leyou has only learned superficially.Fortunately for Chen Jin, he has learned one after another, and he can master all of them. What kind of powerful talent is this?
According to this momentum, why not learn dozens of earth-shaking techniques?

Is that human being?
Before I knew it, it was dawn, the red sun burst out, and the earth was bright.

Chen Jin ate a few pieces of preserved meat and began to look around. He saw that this area was quite desolate, except for a Li village at the foot of the mountain, there were no other villages in sight.There are no rice paddies and fields, the forest and grass are messy everywhere, and there is no one inhabited.

Li Village, in fact, has already broken away from the category of "population".

There is a big locust tree at the entrance of the village; there are flat houses in the village, with black tiles and white walls, and there is no third color, as if the houses are not people living, but temples dedicated to ghosts and gods.

It is said that the best plan for a day is in the morning, but today is bright, but there is no movement in the village, no human voice, no sound of chickens and dogs, it is empty, as if it is a dead village where no one lives.

Looking over the village, I saw that it was Mazi Mountain.

But the mountain looks a bit bare, and it can be seen that the graves are densely packed, without any order, only one word:

chaos!
There was a mass grave.

Gu Leyou swallowed dry food, and took another big sip of water: "Scholar, do you want to wait until noon, when the yang energy is at its peak, before entering the village?"

Chen Jin replied: "No need, there is not a little bit of yang energy. The houses in Li Village are not built casually, but are laid out according to a certain geomantic omen, which can resist yang energy and gather yin energy. Without further ado, this will go."

"it is good."

Gu Leyou agreed straightforwardly, turned his head and said, "Lao Lai, you stay outside."

Lai Zhishu's face changed: "What do you mean? Look down on people?"

Gu Leyou patted him on the shoulder: "Don't get me wrong, I didn't mean that, but you have to leave someone outside so that you can take care of me."

Chen Jin echoed: "The Taoist priest is right. When doing things, the inside and outside should echo each other and involve each other."

Hearing this, Lai Zhishu's face turned slightly tender: "Forget it, I will stay here and wait for the good news."

Chen Jin and Gu Leyou made some preparations, then walked side by side and walked towards the village.

After walking for a while, I came to the entrance of the village and came to the big locust tree with lush branches.

"Scholar, do you look at the tree?"

Gu Leyou suddenly whispered.

Chen Jin has also noticed that this tree is not known how old it is, at least a hundred years old, with ancient and clumsy branches and twists and turns.It doesn't look like a branch, but a human arm.

Countless arms stretched out, and above each one hung a round thing.

To be honest, it was a human head.But it was not a normal human head, the whole body was pale white, as if it was squeezed out of white clay.It was fabricated quite delicately, and the facial features were impressive and vivid.

When the wind blows, the heads of these people start to sway, and they can even make a low "whoop" sound, as if they are choking and weeping.

Let people listen, can't help creeping.

Chen Jin found that the seven orifices of these human heads are connected, so they can be blown by the wind.

"And on the ground..."

Gu Leyou pointed again.

Surrounding the roots of the thick old pagoda tree, there are dense piles of ashes urns of various shapes and sizes, mottled in color, and the number is unknown.

When Chen Jin saw this, a certain famous scene flashed through his mind. On the screen, the tree demon grandma was such a scene.

But this old locust tree is obviously not a tree demon, but the key core formation eye used by Li village to cultivate ghosts.

"Huaihuai", the tree of evil spirits, has been inextricably linked with ghosts since ancient times.

Gu Leyou was not afraid, and said with a sneer, "It's a ghost village, so put up a battle at the entrance of the village to scare ghosts?"

Chen Jin reminded: "Don't take it lightly, a ghost has probably formed in this village."

"demon?"

Gu Leyou's eyelids twitched, thinking about it, it is indeed very possible.After all, Li Village has existed for so many years, and there are countless ghosts, and no one knows what's going on inside.

Chen Jin smiled: "But this 'ghost' is different from others. At least, there are living people leading it."

Gu Leyou murmured: "That's right, if it's a real ghost, the patrol department will probably come to do things."

Strictly speaking, Li Village belongs to a local ghost cultivator sect, and the ghosts they raise mainly come from mass graves, rather than killing innocent civilians.At this point, it is different from evil spirits.

Chen Jin couldn't help laughing: "I don't think that the patrolling department of Gaozhou Prefecture has the ability to wipe out ghosts and monsters in a place...Let's not talk about that, just go in. Be careful, ghosts and ghosts are best at creating weird landscapes and confusing people's minds."

As soon as the words fell, a gust of wind blew, and with a bang, something fell in front of it, which was a huge coffin.

This coffin is not lying horizontally, but standing upright, standing like a person.The whole body is as black as ink, without any color: "Mr. Chen, what is your origin?"

A human voice came from inside the coffin, it was the voice of Old Ghost Li, still looking weak.

Chen Jin took a step forward: "As I said, I'm a casual cultivator."

Old Ghost Li snorted, "Can a ranger, a casual cultivator, cut off the paper maker's left door god with a single sword? Since you're here to please people, why aren't you being sincere?"

Chen Jin: "..."

After thinking for a while: "Actually, I am a scholar."

Old Ghost Li couldn't believe it even more: "Young people, don't talk nonsense!"

Gu Leyou laughed and said: "He is indeed a scholar, a direct disciple of the great scholar Su Xiaowen, have you heard of it?"

"what?"

Old Ghost Li was taken aback: "You are Mr. Su's disciple? Your surname is Chen, and you are Chen Jin?"

It was Chen Jin's turn to be surprised: "Have you heard of me?"

Old Ghost Li sighed, "This old man owes Mr. Su a favor, and there is still a calligraphy by him enshrined in the village."

Chen Jin was dubious about what he said so clearly.

Old Ghost Li said again: "Since you are the master's disciple, if you come to find someone, this old man must give you a satisfactory explanation. He is here, you can take him back."

After all, with a bang, the lid of the black coffin was opened, and one person was thrown out and fell to the ground. His disheveled appearance was very embarrassing, and he couldn't see clearly for a while.

Chen Jin and Gu Leyou looked at each other, they didn't expect things to go so smoothly.

Gu Leyou gritted his teeth, went up to look, and saw that the man was young, his face was terribly pale, without a trace of blood, he was alive, breathing, but in a coma.

"Sure enough, it's the son of the Qin family..."

When the Qin family accepted the commission, Gu Leyou saw the portrait of the other party, and quickly checked it with his hands. There was nothing serious, so he hugged him and returned to Chen Jin.

Old Ghost Li coughed violently, and it took him a while to calm down. He said, "Mr. Chen, I still have a Ghost Animal Returning Yang Pill here as a gift. Please accept it as a good fortune."

A small jet-black box flew out of the coffin, not very fast, floating leisurely.

Chen Jinjing stretched out his iron sword and deftly grabbed the box.

"Good swordsmanship!"

Old Ghost Li knew that Chen Jin was wary and refused to take the unknown object with his hands: "You have already found someone. The rules of Li Village have always disliked foreigners visiting the door, so please leave."

Chen Jin said in a deep voice, "Thank you, Senior Li, for your fulfillment."

He and Gu Leyou took Tan Haibin and turned around to go out.

call!
Another coffin appeared, standing next to the black coffin, but this coffin was covered in bright red, like blood flowing, someone in the coffin made a clear and cold voice, it was a female voice: "Father, why did you hand over people?" Going out? You could have put a bowl of blood in there."

Old Ghost Li smiled wryly and said: "You can't let it go. If the other party breaks into the village, it will be completely embarrassing."

"Hit as soon as you hit, afraid that he won't succeed?"

"Leaving aside the friendship with Mr. Su, this Mr. Chen is not simple. I doubt it very much. He has already built a temple."

"Building a temple? How? How old is he?"

Old Ghost Li sighed: "Some things have nothing to do with age, daughter, aren't you a ready-made example?"

The daughter asked: "He is a scholar, did he build a Confucian Temple?"

"Impossible. He's only a young man. How many books have he read? He doesn't have much experience in human relations. There is absolutely no reason to build a Confucian temple."

"Hee hee, just now you said that some things have nothing to do with age."

"One yard is one yard. In short, I think he can only build temples of mixed types at most. But no matter what kind, as long as the temple is built, the inner landscape of the soul will be invincible, and it is the best to restrain ghosts and evil spirits. How do we fight? Why don't we be a favor and make a good relationship."

Nan'er is still not convinced: "Then there is no need to send ghosts and animals to return Yang Dan."

"Hehe, you are still young and don't understand these things. Don't be stingy and stingy in being human. If you are not willing to invest, it is better not to do it. Otherwise, being human will destroy the relationship and self-defeating. This Mr. Chen really can't see through it. He is Mr. Su's disciple, but he doesn't know where he learned the sword technique, he is a fearsome young man..."
