Chapter 174 Ghost King Nine-Tailed Fox
The winding mountains stretch across the land, and from a high altitude, the mountains look like rows of giant dragon bones. The dragon spine in the center runs from east to west, high in the south and low in the north, and is tilted.
However, this mountain range has no beginning or end, and the east and west sides of the mountain range are both cut off by rivers.
The moonlight was like water, gently sprinkling on the silent wilderness. The shadows of the trees swayed, and a shiny black vortex suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
Cheng Long stepped on the rotten leaves, and his spiritual consciousness surged in all directions like a tide.
Within a radius of ten miles, it was a wasteland with only a few small animals and unclaimed corpses. However, seven miles to the southeast, a little fox squatting at the entrance of a cave, swallowing the moonlight, caught his attention.
"It seems that this is another world with mountain spirits and wild monsters. The spiritual energy is at least three times that of the zombie world. There must be many Taoist masters like Shi Jian."
Cheng Long did not disturb the little fox who was practicing Taoism quietly, but strode towards the south.
If you walk five miles south, you will find a mountain road connecting the north and the south. No matter whether you walk south or north, you will probably meet people there.
Because this is a very typical ancient post road, the road surface is very wide and can accommodate a horse-drawn carriage.
Otherwise, how could there be such a wide mountain road on the mountains in the wilderness.
"It's going to rain soon, we need to walk faster."
Cheng Long was walking leisurely, but when he felt the weather change above his head, he subconsciously quickened his pace.
This time he did not wait a year before starting the copy journey.
Because on the fifth day of the opening of the Tang Dynasty Restaurant, when Cheng Long checked the character panel, he suddenly discovered that the time travel was no longer limited to once a year, but had been changed to once a month.
Most likely, he gained new privileges after cultivating the magic pill and greatly improving his strength. In addition to issuing rewards, the magic system generally does not notify you of the increase in privileges, so you need to explore it yourself.
Follow the winding ancient post road and go down.
"The Ghost King has snatched the bride!"
"Go quickly, go quickly..."
The terrified shouts came from afar, echoing in the dark forest of Yinshan Mountain. Even from a long distance, one could feel a strong evil aura.
Cheng Long rushed towards the source of the sound without saying a word.
With his current physical fitness, if he runs at full speed, he will definitely be supersonic, the difference is several times greater.
Maybe three or four times, or maybe five or six times.
In short, up to now, Cheng Long has not encountered a situation that requires him to run at full speed.
Just like right now, a distance of several kilometers is reached in the blink of an eye.
"Please, don't steal my lady!"
"If you want to arrest someone, arrest me. Please let my lady go!"
A maidservant with outstanding appearance tried her best to hold down the sedan chair, trying to stop the little devil from stealing the bride. But she was just a powerless woman after all. To anger the little devil was simply to seek death.
Seeing that the maid was about to die, Cheng Long flashed in front of her and slapped her with his backhand, sending the evil ghost that stretched out its claws towards the maid flying.
"You bold monster! I, the exorcist Cheng Long, am here. How can I allow you to be so presumptuous!" Cheng Long gave himself a new identity as an exorcist. Then he waved his hand and took out a Miao Dao with a charming red glow out of thin air. He swung the knife at the hidden ghosts in front of him.
"Ah, ah ah..."
Accompanied by shrill ghost cries, the evil ghosts that were split in two appeared one after another.
They were wearing red clothes, carrying red umbrellas, with white hydrangeas hanging on their chests, but at this time they had been separated from each other, and the contents of their stomachs mixed with blood were all over the ground.
But this bloody scene is just a fleeting picture.
The next second, the three little ghosts that were cut into two pieces by Cheng Long's knife turned into nothingness and disappeared completely.
The naturally beautiful little maid couldn't help but brighten up when she saw this scene.
A master has arrived, and now the young lady is saved!
When the last little ghost was killed by Cheng Long's gang of chopping melons and vegetables, suddenly, a red light shot up into the sky in the distance, a cold wind suddenly arose, and a strange humming laugh resounded throughout the entire forest.
It goes without saying that this is killing the younger one and attracting the older one!
"Young Master~~"
The pretty maid also realized that the situation was not good, and hurried to Cheng Long and said, "This is the territory of the Ghost King Nine-tailed Fox. I heard that she has great magical powers and is here to poison the bride. The safety of my lady is entirely in your hands."
"That's one thing to say, but why are you holding my hand? Let go of it quickly. If you get in my way, you, me, and your young lady will all die." Cheng Long turned around and glared at the little maid.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, sir, I didn't mean it, I was just scared..."
The maid quickly let go of Cheng Long's arm, fearing that she would die if she was a step slower.
It doesn’t matter whether she lives or dies, but she must not harm the young lady and Master Cheng.
"Hee hee hee……"
The strange laughter was louder, and thick fog rose from the mass grave two miles away. Umbrellas as red as blood appeared one after another.
Cheng Long, who observed this scene through his spiritual sense, combined with the ghost king nine-tailed fox just mentioned by the maid, could almost determine what kind of world he had entered.
——Liao Zhai!
A world of gods and ghosts full of fantasy love stories.
At the moment, he was exposed to one of the opening plots of "The Fairy in the Painting". The bride sitting in the sedan chair behind him was not Xiaoqian that Mr. Cheng had been thinking about, but she was almost the same.
After all, they look the same, and Mochou was not forced to receive guests, so she deserves more love than Xiaoqian.
It’s a pity that we came too early.
Now the bride hasn't jumped off the cliff to commit suicide yet, and she has become a pitiful female ghost, Mo Chou!
Her maid Xiaoshuang did not go crazy because of this.
"Hee hee hee……"
The strange laughter was getting closer and closer, and a ball of red light surged from the direction of the mass grave.
As they got closer, nine huge red umbrellas emerged from the red light, forming a formation to surround Cheng Long, Xiao Shuanghe, and Mo Chou in the sedan chair.
The little devil holding an umbrella is wearing a red robe and has double rings on his sideburns. He looks big and strong but dresses as a boy. They all have a pale face and red eyes, and exude an evil aura.
"Teacher Bai, I'll leave these little devils to you."
Cheng Long was too lazy to deal with these little ghosts, so with a thought, he summoned Bai Ling who was in the soul-nourishing jade.
"Sir, these little ghosts are so ugly!"
Bai Ling had a look of disgust on her face. She didn't want to get violent with these little ghosts from the bottom of her heart. Although these little ghosts were all ferocious and evil, they posed no threat to her at all.
"If they are an eyesore, why not kill them all? Then you won't see them anymore, right?"
"Do you really want to kill me?"
Bai Ling, who had never had a quarrel with anyone since she was born, hesitated for a moment. The little ghosts in front of her were indeed ugly and an eyesore, but she wanted to chase them away instead of killing them.
"kill."
"All right!"
Bai Ling gritted her teeth, made claws out of her hands, and raised them high.
The next moment, a gust of cold wind blew from behind, blowing away Teacher Bai's long hair, and her nails grew like sharp swords...
"Miss, can I go in and stay there? It's so scary outside!" Xiaoshuang, who was guarding the bridal sedan, felt that Bai Ling was very elegant and bookish when she first saw her.
Who would have thought that after hearing what Master Cheng said, the woman's fingernails on both hands grew a lot longer in the blink of an eye. The moonlight shining on them could reflect a cold light, which was terrifying to see.
Isn’t Mr. Cheng an exorcist?
How could there be such a scary female ghost around?
"The sedan is only this big. If you sit in it, won't you be squeezed to death?"
Mo Chou's light and graceful voice came from the sedan chair.
At this time, she had already lifted the red veil.
The ghost king, the nine-tailed fox, came to snatch the bride and scared away the sedan bearers, the matchmaker, the drummer and other wedding party members. Only a maid was left by her side. It was obvious that the wedding could not go on and there was no need to wear a red veil.
"You damn little devils, why do you want to mess with my master?" Bai Ling's figure was elusive, like a wisp of smoke, and looked particularly weird under the moonlight.
The little devil holding the umbrella couldn't determine her position at all and could only passively defend.
"Swoosh!" Teacher Bai's longer nails were like sharp blades, making a sharp whistling sound.
A little ghost was caught off guard and was cut into eight pieces by her, and then turned into a black shadow and disappeared.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the other eight little ghosts quickly retreated to a distance.
"Still want to run?"
Just as Bai Ling was about to chase after him, Cheng Long grabbed her shoulder.
"Don't chase him yet, the real owner has appeared."
Before Cheng Long finished his words, a cold wind blew up all around, and a huge red umbrella slowly rose up, with red clouds all over the sky and pearly tassels hanging down.
Suddenly, a white jade hand stretched out from the darkness and caught the red umbrella falling from the sky.
The body is covered with black gauze, the figure is enchanting, and the porcelain white skin is looming.
What a gorgeous female ghost!
Cheng Long followed the long legs all the way up and saw the strategically important place. After a short pause, he continued upwards and saw a charming face with a sweet voice.
This female ghost has outstanding appearance, charming figure and noble aura.
At this stage, Teacher Bai really can't compare to others.
"Man, you're pretty brave, aren't you? How dare you kill my little devil?"
As soon as the Ghost King Nine-tailed Fox showed up, he asked for accountability, as if he was in control of the overall situation. He didn't take Cheng Long seriously at all, but was very interested in Teacher Bai Lingbai.
If a female ghost who is about to cultivate into a ghost demon can be subdued, she will not be in the embarrassing situation of having no one to use in the future, and she will not have to do it herself every time something happens.
"You are just a little kid, why wouldn't you dare?"
Cheng Long secretly judged the strength of the Ghost King Nine-tailed Fox and found that he was not much stronger than Shi Jian and was not in the same league as him.
"Hmph~~Since you want to die, I will grant your wish."
The Ghost King Nine-Tailed Fox was so angry at Cheng Long that his chest hurt. He had no awareness of being at the mercy of others, so he decided to teach this bastard a lesson.
"Really? I'm curious, how do you want me to die?"
Cheng Long smiled coldly, and suddenly, the demonic energy in his body surged out like a raging torrent, instantly filling the entire forest.
The majestic demonic energy condensed like a substance, pressing down on the Ghost King Nine-tailed Fox and a group of little ghosts like Mount Tai.
His eyes flashed with a scarlet light, as if burning with flames, revealing endless anger and violence.
The surrounding air seemed to be solidified by this evil spirit, becoming heavy and depressing.
Under the threat of this powerful demonic energy, the nine-tailed fox felt palpitations and fear in its heart, and its eyes were filled with fear and anxiety.
She seemed to see the shadow of death approaching her, and also felt the terrifying pressure from the evil cultivator.
"W-who are you?"
The nine-tailed fox suppressed its trembling instinct and looked at Cheng Long with dull eyes.
She had only felt such a terrifying aura once, from Master Montenegro.
Twenty years ago, an ignorant demon king rashly broke into the underworld and occupied the mountain as king, thus offending the Black Mountain Old Demon of the City of the Dead.
At that time, she was still a ghost and had not yet cultivated into a ghost king, but it was precisely because of this that she could remember how terrifying the angry Master Black Mountain was!
It was a kind of fear that was severe in words, as if if one said the wrong thing by accident, the other party would tear it into pieces and turn it into nothingness.
"I am an exorcist, specializing in treating demons like you..."
Cheng Long raised the corner of his mouth slightly. The ghost king, the nine-tailed fox, occupied the land and enjoyed snatching brides. Over the years, there were at least eighty brides who died at her hands. How could he keep such a vicious woman?
No matter how good-looking you are, you will die.
"..."
The nine-tailed fox's face froze. He clearly wanted to surrender, but why didn't this guy in front of him see that at all? Did he have to kneel down and admit his mistake and lose all face before he would stop?
But she didn't have time to think about it.
Cheng Long did not give her the opportunity to kneel down and acknowledge her master with sincerity.
The surging demonic energy turned into a giant black dragon, which swam over with a roar, opened its bloody mouth like a millstone, and tried to bite it in half.
"Want to bite me?"
"Hold you to death!"
At the critical moment, the nine-tailed fox summoned the ghost weapon Red Umbrella and shoved it into the mouth of the evil black dragon.
The moment the red umbrella opened, bursts of red light broke through the black dragon head, bursting into a dazzling red glow.
……
On the other side, Bai Ling took advantage of Brother Long playing with the nine-tailed fox to quickly kill the eight little ghosts on the opposite side. She thought that after killing these annoying little ghosts, she could step aside and enjoy the show with Mochou and Xiaoshuang, the master and servant.
Who would have thought that after killing a few evil spirits with bad intentions, the ground suddenly shook.
Rumble!
A cloud of misty Yin energy rolled out from the shaking ground. A team of Yin soldiers, armed with swords, spears, and halberds, followed their leader and suddenly rushed in front of Bai Ling in the swirling mist.
In an instant, Teacher Bai became flustered.
Xiaoshuang and Mochou's lives are therefore in jeopardy.
Bai Ling was not worried about the evil spirits. Even though they were a little mixed, they were still a great tonic for a female ghost like her. However, if Xiaoshuang and Mochou inhaled a few more breaths, they might die.
"Listen to my orders!"
"Army attack……"
The leader of the ghost soldiers saw through Bai Ling's concerns at a glance, and made a gesture to split up into small groups, ordering his ghost soldiers to attack Mochou and Xiaoshuang from all directions.
Although Bai Ling tried her best to protect the master and servant, she was ultimately just an evil ghost, not even a ghost demon. Facing the harassment from hordes of ghost soldiers, her flawless white cheongsam was soon stained with blood.
She is hurt.
It's not serious, but the strength has dropped significantly.
"Miss, run!"
Seeing that the situation was not good, Xiaoshuang pulled Miss Mochou away from this place of trouble.
Who knew that when he turned around, he bumped into three skeleton soldiers holding spears. These skeleton soldiers all had green eyes and attacked without mercy.
chi chi chi...
The spear pierced into the flesh, and the faces of both the master and the servant were almost distorted with pain.
"Miss~~"
Xiaoshuang, the loyal maid, was still thinking about her mistress when she was dying.
"Don't be afraid, Xiaoshuang. Sister will always be with you..."
Mochou held Xiaoshuang's hand tightly.
The deep love between master and servant and the tragic scene of them going to the underworld together made the kind-hearted Mr. Bai furious.
"die!"
"I want you all dead!"
Bai Ling, who had already accumulated a lot of anger due to her injury, was like a volcano that had been suppressed for thousands of years, and her anger finally erupted violently at this moment.
Her eyes flashed with a cold light, as if they could devour all life. Her long hair danced wildly in the night wind like a black flag declaring war.
Her figure flickered in the moonlight, and the air around her seemed to be solidified by her evil spirit, forming a terrible storm of yin energy, which rolled up a large amount of dust and fallen leaves around it, forming a series of terrifying whirlwinds.
Her voice also became sharp and piercing, as if it could penetrate deep into people's souls and make them feel fear.
At this moment, she advanced to become a ghost demon without any hindrance. Her strength increased several times and her whole body was filled with terrible evil spirit.
ps: It took me a long time to select the dungeon today, so I only updated once. Please forgive me.
