Chapter 198 The land god, lion ape!
At dawn, the deepest part of the underground prison.

In the wide underground cave, a tall, humanoid monster was waving a ceremonial spear and making a terrifying howling sound.

That is the elite enemy of the wraith type in the game, the Seven-faced Samurai.

Born from the gathering of wronged souls, the Seven-Faced Samurai is covered in incomplete and twisted armor. The torso seems to be stitched together from two bodies, and the shoulders are topped with twisted faces and helmets. From a distance, they look like living creatures. There are two heads.

The seven-faced warrior waved the alien ceremonial spear in his hand, and twisted purple flames rose up all over his body. At the same time, purple oriole fire balls with skull faces emerged from the ground and swayed in the air.

And the one fighting it is the wolf.

At this time, the wolf's body was vaguely surrounded by a purple light, and the wedge pill in his hand was covered in flames of the same color!
At first glance, the color is somewhat similar to the will-o'-the-wisp of the Seven-Faced Samurai, but the divine power contained in it makes it unmistakable to anyone.

That is provided by the prop called "God's Flying Snow", which can be used as a protective power to attack and cause harm to the resentful spirits.

It was also through the power of God's Flying Snow's protection and enchantment that the wolf was able to confront the seven-faced warrior of the resentful spirit head-on.

The Seven-faced Warrior let out a wailing roar, purple will-o'-the-wisps rising around him, and pointed the alien spear forward in his hand!
Skulls condensed with will-o'-the-wisps flew out from the front of its spear and rushed towards the wolf quickly!
However, the wolf reacted very quickly and immediately ran sideways, avoiding all the will-o'-the-wisps, and at the same time gradually approached the Seven-faced Samurai.

The wolf rushed not far in front of the Seven-faced Samurai, and the purple-fire-wrapped wedge shot down in the air, cutting through the last oriole fire ball.Then, the wolf turned sideways, raised the wedge ball horizontally, accumulated some strength, and quickly thrust forward!

Kui Nin stabs!

But the Seven-faced Warrior reacted very quickly. Seeing the wolf charging towards him, it jumped back suddenly, as if there was no gravity, and jumped into the air!

However, at this moment, a bullet also wrapped in flames came through the air and accurately shot through the head of the Seven-faced Samurai that was tilted to one side!

The seven-faced warrior who was originally floating in the air suddenly fell to the ground like a torn bag.

Li You, holding the anti-material sniper rifle, started moving again, avoiding the will-o'-the-wisps emerging on the ground, and shouted:
"Now, wolf!"

In fact, he didn't need to remind him, and the wolf would naturally not miss such a good opportunity.He quickly flew up, came to the side of the Seven-faced Samurai, and stabbed the Kakimaru wrapped in purple fire with his sword!

"Pfft-"

Kedgemaru penetrated the Seven-faced Samurai's body and stabbed into the ground.Under the burning fire of the gods, the Seven-Faced Warrior only had time to let out one last long cry, and the entire alien body dissipated in the flames.

Just at this moment, the flame on the wolf knife also went out.

On the other side, Li You jumped down from a high cliff, came to the wolf, and picked up a white knife that fell on the ground.

The wolf looked at him: "Is this...what you are looking for?"

Li You nodded: "That's it."

The knife was white from the blade to the handle, and the word "Fenghun" was engraved on the blade.

This is the prop in the game called "Paper Man Drift", which can convert half of the wolf's health into five paper men.

As for the paper man, it is a prop that will be consumed in the game when the wolf wants to activate the effect of the Ninja Prosthetic Hand Tool.

If you ask why Li You took this knife, it's because when the wolf came back from the abandoned Buddhist temple again this morning, he brought him new news.

The wolf told him that next to the abandoned Buddhist temple, the strange samurai talked to him and asked him what the Odachi sword on his back was.

The wolf didn't want to answer at first, but the warrior then said:

"I'm sorry, Shiba. I'm called the Immortal Hanbei, and he's a wandering samurai who's temporarily staying here."

"That Odachi looks... very similar to what I'm looking for, so I ask this question. But you and I are strangers, so it's normal for you not to want to answer. How about this, how about I exchange other information with you?

"...I'll just take it as your acquiescence. Then, please forgive me for being presumptuous. I accidentally heard before that you and the outsider wanted to save the gorilla, right?"

The wolf's expression finally changed.

Then, under the explanation of the undead Hanbei, the wolf learned a method that although it could not cure the problem, it could temporarily alleviate the Buddha Sculptor's condition.

That is to use special methods to let other people with sinful karma help absorb the fire of resentment, so as to reduce the pressure on the Buddha carving master.

But Hanbei didn't know the specific method. He only knew that there was a rumor that there was a special knife that could work.

So the wolf told Li You about this.

Naturally, Li You immediately realized what the knife Hanbei was talking about.

In fact, when Li You was thinking about how to save the Buddha carving master, he also noticed the existence of the paper man.

According to the game settings, the paper man is a phantom born from the regrets in people's hearts. Only those who have committed serious sins will be possessed by it, and the possessed person will have to bear the karma of his crime.

In the original game, the only people who could definitely see the paper figures were the wolf and the Buddha carver.

So Li You thought, if being attached to a paper man means having sinful karma, then as long as someone can see and attract the paper man, does he also have the qualities to become a ghost or even a Shura?
And just in time, the wolf brought him this news again, so Li You no longer hesitated, went to the city warehouse to get a small basket of God's Flying Snow Papers, and ran to the dungeon with the wolf.

In fact, his original intention was to let the wolf attack him while he fished for himself.Forget about other enemies, if Li You really wants to face the resentful spirits, he is still a little weak.

Li You has already experimented with night demons. The "horror" attacks of the resentful spirits in this world are actually a kind of damage to the spirit and soul. In the absence of effective defense means, once the terror has accumulated to a certain level, To such an extent, a person's mind will collapse and die suddenly on the spot. Even the Night Demon cannot resist it.

Fortunately, there is a night devil's lair. After throwing the body back, you can quickly get a new night devil, so you don't lose anything.

Therefore, Li You didn't want to fight in close combat with the resentful spirits. After all, if he was accidentally scared to death, he would be doomed.

But what he didn't expect was that during the experiment, he discovered that the enchantment of God's Flying Snow was also effective on his firearms!

However, not all firearms are useful. After Li You tried it, he found that only the infinite attribute firearms produced by the system could benefit from the enchantment bonus of God's Flying Snow.

This strange setting left Li You a little confused.

But regardless, this is a great thing.This means that he can cause effective damage to Seven-Faced Samurai and Headless without getting close.

So, he cooperated with the wolf and quickly eliminated the seven-faced warrior in the deepest part of the abandoned dungeon, and obtained the soul-serving dagger.

Then, Li You took the short knife and asked the wolf his guess.Can the wolf see the paper man, and does the person who can make the paper man attached have the potential to transform into a ghost?
After thinking about it, the wolf replied: "Indeed... it is possible. But except for me and the Buddhist carving master, I have never heard of anyone else seeing the paper man."

Li You was already prepared for this problem.He snapped his fingers, and at the entrance of the cave leading to the underground prison, Aggie came out with the night demons and the owl.

In Xiao Xiao's hand, he was also holding a man in white robes.

It’s Daoshun whom I haven’t seen for a long time.

The wolf saw the owl at a glance, was stunned, and asked: "Master Li You, do you want to..."

Li You nodded: "I've always had a headache about how to deal with Xiao. After all, he is your adoptive father and a comrade-in-arms of Mr. Yixin. It's not good to go too far."

"But wouldn't it be a good thing if he could take on the sins of the Buddhist sculptor?"

The wolf stared at the expressionless owl, and then said: "...if you have already decided."

Li You knew that he couldn't bear it, and not to mention him, even Yi Xin specifically mentioned it to him, hoping that he could chop Xiao off and free Xiao.

Li You originally planned to do this, but now, Xiao Xiao will not die for the time being.

Also brought was Dao Shun.Daoshun's legs were broken. He was so frightened by Li You before that he was lying in the hospital recently, feeling confused.

Li You didn't apply to anyone else and just brought him over.

In Li You's view, he is also one of the candidates who can try to bear the sins of the Buddhist sculptor.

After all, this schizophrenic madman sent countless innocent people to the experimental platform in the name of "for Wei Ming". The crime he shouldered was definitely no lighter than that of the wolf.

After all, the people killed by the wolf were all soldiers and generals, and most of them were prepared to die. But this guy Daoshun didn't even spare civilians, old people, and women.

Not to mention anything else, even the immortal Hanbei who abandoned the Buddhist temple also had a grudge against him.In the village on the territory of the Yamashita Takamine family, a pair of young siblings who once took in Hanbei died because of Michioshun's experiment.

So in Li You's opinion, Xiao and Daoshun, a villain and a madman, are not good materials for absorbing paper figures?

Aiji led the army of infected people to Li You. At this moment, the second batch of night demons had hatched. Together with the two solitary shadow commanders who had sensed the night demons, there was a total of 22 night demons.

This number is enough to make them a sharp blade in the battle against the inner government.

And there will be more.

Aiji said to Li Youyou: "Xianyilang has sent people to repair the worship tower. He also sent a large number of horse carcasses. Now the night demons don't have to worry about food."

Li You nodded: "Let Xiao tie up Daoshun. I want to see if they can absorb the paper man."

The specific method is also very simple. Use the Fenghun knife to make wounds on Xiao and Daoshun, convert the blood into paper figures, and then see whether these paper figures will float away in the wind or stay with them.

However, because Li You can't see the paper man, a wolf must be used as a monitoring instrument.

Li You took the knife, came to Daoshun, and said to the wolf: "Remember to keep it secret from other people."

The wolf obviously hesitated, but finally nodded: "...I understand."

……

The moment of sunrise.

The four of them, Li You, Lang, Ai Ji, and Yu Zi, were walking through the collapse canyon.

Xiao Xiao and Daoshun's experiments on adsorbing paper figures have barely made some progress, but there are still many problems that need to be overcome.

So Li You didn't give in and decided to take the wolf first to collect the materials for making the Incense of the Origin, and then rushed to Collapse Canyon.

Both Li You and the wolf have grappling hooks and hooks, which are very convenient for movement.Although Aiji is a night demon, she is not as flexible as the night hunter, so she is hanging on Yuzi's back, and Yuzu is leading her to move.

They passed through the territory of the Snake Eyes clan, the Iron Cannon Fortress, and obtained the material for the penultimate ninja tool - the large fan from the White Snake Shrine in the Iron Cannon Fortress.

Then, Li You instructed everyone to carefully bypass the drinking spring of the White Snake God behind the shrine and reach the deepest part of the collapse canyon.

The deepest part of the Collapse Canyon is called Bodhisattva Valley.

This is a long and narrow valley with towering rocks on both sides and a large poisonous swamp at the bottom.In the valley, there are huge Bodhisattva statues carved and carved along the mountain wall, standing or sitting, arranged among them.

Everyone who saw this scene was amazed.

For example, Aiji was stunned and murmured: "So many Buddha statues...can they really be cultivated by people of this era?"

In fact, Li You was also curious about this question...but he was still able to control his curiosity and just looked into the depths of the Bodhisattva Valley.

Bodhisattva Valley is where Ashina's source water flows out, and it is also one of the places closest to the fairyland source palace.

The former Buddhist sculptor, Orangutan, and his companion, the ninja Kawachan, practiced here.

In addition, iron ore, an important resource that Ashina relies on to trade with other countries, is also mined from the bottom of the collapse canyon.

However, today, the iron ore resources in the collapse canyon are gradually depleted, and Ashina's population has declined over the years, so the mining industry has gradually been abandoned.Today, the Bodhisattva Valley has once again been occupied by the ape clan.

This group of monkeys follow the earth god Lion Ape, are his dependents, and possess a certain degree of wisdom.

They will wear human helmets, use human muskets, and even use double swords to display amazing swordsmanship.Those who are not good at studying will be put at a disadvantage even in swordsmanship competitions.

Therefore, this kind of double-sword white ape is also called the Bodhisattva Valley Sword Master in awe by players, or... double-sword Jinlai.

Li You has no intention of troubling these monkeys for the time being. His only goal here is the lion ape.

To go to the Palace of Source, you must obtain the fragrant water lily in the cave where the lion ape drinks water as a raw material for burning incense.At the same time, the last ninja tool, the finger whistle, was also in the belly of the lion ape.

And it just so happens that the wolf already has Immortal Slash, so just send the lion and ape away at once.

The second ape gets out of the collapse canyon!
When he came to the arm of a Buddha statue, Li You took out his anti-material sniper rifle, found a clear angle, and fired one shot after another, directly sending away the apes in the Bodhisattva Valley one by one.

This group of monkeys who can use muskets is still very annoying. It would be better to deal with them as soon as possible.

Because they were equipped with the magic silencer produced by the system, the monkeys did not realize where the enemy came from until they were all wiped out.They could only look at their companions, with blood holes exploding on their bodies for no apparent reason, and they fell powerlessly.

Then, Li You and the others successfully arrived at the drinking place of the Lion Ape.

This is a mountain valley covered by shallow water. Between the extremely thick tree roots at the end of the valley in the distance, a white line can be seen falling from the sky, but its origin is unknown.

In fact, this waterfall flows from the Source Palace in Xianxiang and falls here, becoming Ashina's Source Water.

And where it hangs down is where the lion ape is.

The lion ape is the land god of Bodhisattva Valley, so it can also be called the ape god (crossed out.

Lion apes usually live in pairs of one male and one female, but today's land lion apes are possessed by insects and cannot die, and their partners have long since left.

Therefore, the lion ape, the god of earth, may have been seeking relief.

Standing on the cliff, Li You saw at a glance the huge lion ape with long white fur, drinking water at the waterfall at the end.

Li You couldn't help but shook his head.

In the game, if you go to the underwater bottom of the Palace of Source, you can see the luminous insect eggs clinging to the huge skeleton.

Those insect eggs contaminated and twisted by Sakura Dragon's divine power are the source of insect possession.They followed the water flow from the Palace of Origin to the lower reaches and were drank by the lion ape. Therefore, they parasitized in his body and turned him into an immortal body.

After years of torture, the current lion ape, from body to soul, is probably going crazy.

Sending Him away also frees Him.

There is no need to worry about whether the death of the land god will have any bad effects. Ashina's land god is different from the Chinese land god and is not static.If the previous land god dies, a new land god will soon be born within the tribe.

The White Snake God is an example. In the White Snake God Cave at the bottom of Bodhisattva Valley, a hidden shrine enshrines a dried up White Snake God heart, which was the heart of the previous Snake God.

Similarly, the White Snake Shrine in the Iron Cannon Fortress enshrines the skin that the White Snake shed when it was still of normal size - and the White Snake at this time was just an ordinary snake with only one head.

All in all, the land god is also an animal, and the land god is the overlord of a clan.

Their common features are their whitish color and huge size.

Of course there are exceptions, the Mist Crow God is about the same size as a normal owl.But apart from Him, other land gods, such as the White Snake God, the Koi God, the Lion and the Ape, all have huge bodies that far exceed those of their kind.

If you really want to talk about it, the lion and the ape are considered small. He stands upright and is only a little over four meters...only.

Li You squatted down, set up his sniper rifle, and said to the three people beside him: "Then, just follow what we said before."

"Wolf, you must remember that after defeating the Lion Ape, pull out the undead insects from his body and send him away with the Immortal Slash. Otherwise, even if you behead him, the Lion Ape will still be resurrected."

The wolf nodded solemnly and grasped the handle of the Immortal Slash behind his back.

On the other side, Yuzu held Odachi's Odachi in her hand and was waving it excitedly.

Because today's owls no longer have use for this thing, so naturally, Yuzu, who had just lost his weapon Sledgehammer Feather, took it away.

However, considering that Yuzi was unable to cultivate strength due to physical reasons, Li You estimated that the knife might not last long before Yuzi broke it.

As for Aggie, she was holding the rioter shotgun given to her by Li You and carrying a gun suitcase on her back.

Her mission is to distract the Lion-Ape with a shotgun and prevent the Lion-Ape from using poison gas to attack.

Well, in short, just shoot the lion and ape with a gun and avoid your companions.

Just in case, Li You took out the same gas mask as Hank Kara obtained in Biochemical [-] from his backpack and threw it to Aiji.This thing can provide auxiliary aiming, which can prevent Aggie from accidentally sending the wolf away.

Seeing that everyone was ready, Li You raised his sniper rifle and shot the lion ape in the back from afar!
"Roar--!!"

The lion ape was suddenly hit hard and staggered, but then turned around and let out an earth-shattering roar!

Through the scope, Li You also saw the whole picture of the lion ape.

In addition to the long white hair all over his body and the long sharp nails on his hands, there was a large bloody scar on the left side of his face, and there was even a huge Odachi stuck diagonally on his neck!

And his back is unnaturally bulging, and he looks somewhat similar to the parasitic giant in the biological world.

Li You's shot just now hit His bulging back. Among the splashes of flesh and blood, Li You could even see the carapace of an immortal centipede!
But unfortunately, no matter how powerful his anti-material sniper rifle is, as long as it can't kill the lion and ape to ashes, it can't stop the regeneration of the centipede.

The injury on Lion Ape's back recovered quickly, and as soon as he turned his head, he had discovered Li You and others, and immediately roared in this direction again!

But Wolf, Yuzu and Aggie had already moved.The wolf's hook rope was pulled and flew directly towards the lion ape.

While he was still in mid-air, he had already tightened his grip on Chuimaru, intending to give the lion ape a killing blow.

However, although the lion ape is crazy, he is not brainless. On the contrary, the long lifespan brought by the insect possession makes him understand the various fighting methods of human beings.

The lion ape faced the wolf's descent and suddenly stretched out his hand.He actually wanted to catch the wolf directly in his hands!
But in this critical moment, neither Li You, who was holding a sniper rifle, nor Aiji and Yuzi had any intention of helping. The wolf was about to fall into the hands of the lion ape.

However, just when the lion ape was about to catch the wolf in his hand, the wolf's figure suddenly turned into a black mist. While passing through the lion ape's hand, it teleported forward for a certain distance, and then the wolf's figure reappeared. , this time the knife successfully penetrated the back of the lion's neck!
In fact, the wolf used Kakimaru to fix himself on the back of the lion monkey, and then stretched out his hand to reach the slanted Odachi sword on the neck of the lion monkey!

The lion ape roared in pain and reached out to pull the wolf down, but at this time Li You and the others took action.

A bullet flew and hit Lion Ape's left hand, causing his arm to twitch.Then Yuzu suddenly rushed in front of Shizaru, holding the Odachi's Odachi, and nailed Shizaru's right hand to the ground.

The lion monkey couldn't help roaring in pain, struggling wildly, trying to pull out his right hand, but the wolf had already reached the hilt of the Odachi knife on the lion monkey's neck!
At the critical moment, the bulging back of the lion ape suddenly surged, and then an extremely thick centipede broke through the skin, got out, and bit the wolf on the neck of the lion ape!

Aggie, who had been prepared for a long time, opened fire. The bullets from the shotgun hit the carapace on the centipede's back, and sparks burst out.

And Li You also pulled the trigger again!
"puff--!"

The giant centipede's torso was broken from the middle and smashed to the ground. After avoiding the left hand that the lion ape reluctantly grabbed, the wolf grasped the handle of the Odachi with both hands, and the whole body exerted force together, pulling the Odachi into a spin. !
After turning the Odachi that was inserted diagonally into the neck of the lion ape, the head of the lion ape was cut off neatly!

Then, the Odachi spun half a circle in the air and plunged into the ground. The lion ape, which had lost its head, suddenly stopped and hit the ground heavily, causing a large splash of water.

Only half of the immortal centipede remained on his back, still squirming unwillingly, as if it wanted to control the body of the lion and ape to get up.

In the game, when you defeat the Lion Ape for the first time, regardless of whether there is Immortal Slash or not, you cannot completely execute him, and you have to fight him a second time.

But in this world, Li You is not used to him.

Li You shouted: "Do it, wolf!"

The wolf did not hesitate and drew out the Immortal Slash from behind!
He used his ninja prosthetic hand to grab the half centipede that was still shrunk inside the lion ape's body, pulled it all out, and threw it to the ground next to the upper half of the centipede's body.

Then, the wolf held the Immortal Slash with both hands. Black-red miasma rose up from the Immortal Slash blade, and he slashed down with the blade!
"Shh-!"

However, at this moment, the wolf's movements suddenly stopped!

The Immortal Slash almost landed on the Immortal Insect, but stopped at the last inch.

Li You: "Huh!?"

Although the giant centipede had no brains, it never gave up on survival. At this moment, it immediately squirmed and spliced ​​its upper and lower bodies back together, and then scurried back into the body of the lion ape!
Aggie and Yuzu, who were not far away, saw this and wanted to stop it, but Aggie's shotgun hit the centipede's carapace, and the effect was very limited. Yuzi stretched out his tentacles to block it, but was still a step slower. The centipede had already penetrated the carapace. Back into the body of the lion ape.

Then, the body of the lion ape started moving again and got up from the ground.

He pulled out the Odachi with one hand, picked up his head with the other, then put his head back on his neck and let out a high-pitched roar!

"Roar--!!"

Yuzi still wanted to chase, but Li You immediately shouted: "Don't chase, everyone get out of the way!"

Yuzi was also stunned for a moment, and then quickly retreated, avoiding the rain of blood spraying from the neck of the lion ape.

In the game, if you are hit by this bloody rain, you will be affected by the "horror" effect.

The headless lion ape didn't seem to want to continue fighting. After a roar of blood rain, it immediately jumped quickly and planned to escape.

Li You planned to stop it, but the wolf in the distance shouted: "Wait, Master Li You! Don't do anything yet!"

Li You made a move and turned to look at him. The lion ape took the opportunity to climb over not far from Li You, jumped into the bottom of Bodhisattva Valley and escaped.

Li You then put away the soul pendant.

Later, the group of them reunited.

Li You asked Lang: "Why don't you kill him?"

The wolf looked at his prosthetic hand and replied:
"Just now, when I was about to kill the centipede, I sensed something."

Li You: "Huh?"

The wolf said: "At that moment, I felt that the body of the lion and ape had a suction force on the paper figures attached to me."

"No, it's not a paper man, but something deeper hidden in this ninja prosthetic hand. It's like what I felt from the Buddhist sculptor master..."

Li You's eyes widened: "...the fire of resentment?"

"You mean...!?"

The wolf looked at him and said, "Maybe it's just my delusion. But maybe, maybe the land god... can become a container to carry the fire of resentment, maybe?"

Li You's eyes lit up: "No, what you said makes sense!"

"Let's go back to Ashina City and find someone to ask!"
