Infinity through different life

Chapter 58 Be My Food!
Xu Maozong is a vigorous character, from the time he got the news back, it only took two hours for everything to be ready.

Around noon, the three carriages, accompanied by the guards, quickly drove out of the north gate of Guishui City and onto the official road.

There were only about 20 people in the entire team, except for Xu Jing's family, the rest were all selected guards who were willing to leave with them.

In order to speed up the march, each guard was equipped with a mount, and the group disappeared from the sight of the city gate guards within a short while.

Xu Jing learned to ride a horse when he was an orangutan in the last world, but in the main world, he had never ridden a horse, so he didn't try to show off, but sat obediently in the carriage.

The carriage was walking on the uneven official road, creaking and bumping. Fortunately, thick soft animal skin cushions were laid in the carriage, which greatly eased the pain of the bumps.

Their destination is Anhe City located in the hinterland of the Central Plains, which is nearly a thousand miles away from Guishui City.

Such a long distance, based on the speed of the carriage alone, would take about a week.

Xu Jing was lazily lying on the bench in the carriage, with his head resting on Xiao Lian's elastic thigh, enjoying the other's skillful massage.

Since the system was upgraded to the official version, although there are some things that frustrate him, there are also changes that are useful to him.

The most beneficial thing is that after he crosses, if the body of the main world is threatened, the system will provide free protection for a period of time and give him a reminder so that he has enough time to return to deal with it.

With this convenience, the big stone that weighed on his heart every time he crossed finally fell to the ground.

The team moved very fast, according to Xu Maozong's request, they had to rush to the nearest post station before dark.

The accompanying guards had all seen the fox demon, and had begun to understand this dangerous world. Of course, they were unwilling to take the risk of spending the night in the wilderness, so they were not lazy in their journey.

After a whole afternoon, with only two breaks in the middle, the group finally arrived at the post station before dark.

It is said to be a post station, but it is actually a village with low walls and narrow streets. There are more than 100 households in the whole village, and there are also a large number of inns built in the village to welcome businessmen and travelers.

It was meal time at this time, and rows of lanterns were hung high in the village, and the streets were very lively with people coming and going.

For Xu Jing and his group, the people here only took a few more glances, and then looked away without any surprise.

As soon as he entered the village, several people who were soliciting business for different inns surrounded him. Xu Maozong chose the largest one after comparison.

Xu Jing sat in the carriage all afternoon and was not in the mood to wander around. After eating something, he went back to his room to rest.

He didn't time travel. After all, he had just been an orangutan for more than a year, and it was less than a day since he returned. He was very worried that if he continued time travel, he would forget that he was still a human.

In addition, the source point is enough to maintain the health value that has been declining due to the negative state in a short period of time, and there is no follow-up to the exercises, and there is nothing to improve in strength, so he is going to give himself some time to adjust.

……

"Finally caught up."

In the middle of the night, on a dirt slope a kilometer away from the village where the post station was located, a dark shadow suddenly appeared under the faint moonlight.

"I ran so far. If I hadn't set the tracking soul mark, I would have miscalculated this time. But it's good. If I devour that kid's flesh and soul here, even if there is trouble, it will be difficult to find me."

While speaking, the black shadow flew up lightly, and with a cold laugh, it swept towards the distant village.

Xu Jing didn't know that he was being targeted, but he didn't relax his guard. Although he was in a deep sleep state, his telepathy was always on alert.

In the haze, he suddenly opened his eyes and looked towards the head of the bed, only to see a vague figure standing beside him.

ghost?
Xu Jing's mind exploded with a bang, and he wanted to turn over, but found that his body was not in control at all, and he couldn't even move.

This feeling is like a ghost pressing the bed. He is clearly conscious, but he can't even move his fingers.

"I didn't expect that I still underestimated your soul power. That's right, it's so good. I didn't waste my running so far to chase after you. Boy, give up the futile struggle. It's just bad luck for you to be targeted by me. Be my food." .”

The ghost image didn't give Xu Jing any chance at all. As soon as it finished speaking, it exploded and turned into a strange cloud of smoke, which divided into strands and floated towards Xu Jing's mouth, nose, eyes, ears and other positions.

Made!

Xu Jing was almost cursing in his heart, he had already realized that this ghost was most likely the one who was staring at him when he went to Fayuan Temple during the day.

In this main world, if the strength is weak, these demons and ghosts will wantonly kill them, but if the strength is a little stronger, it is easy to be missed like now.

Not only can't provoke it, but it can't even hide.

How to do?
He summoned the system immediately, and then subconsciously looked at the Vajra Armor, but then quickly shifted his gaze to look at the plus sign behind the first-tier flames.

"Fight!"

Judging from the actions of this ghost, it is obvious that it is preparing to enter his body and directly devour his flesh and soul. For the current plan, the most likely thing to inflict heavy damage on the opponent is the explosion of flames in the body, burning the opponent to death.

If the first floor doesn't work, go to the second floor, if the second floor doesn't work, go to the third floor, or even the fourth floor!
Want to eat me?Even if labor and capital die, you will lose your teeth!

The smoke had already begun to seep into his body, Xu Jing no longer hesitated, made a decision in an instant, and clicked towards the plus sign with a thought.

But at this moment, the system's cold notification sound suddenly sounded in my mind:
"Discover absorbable energy, whether it is absorbed and transformed into the original point."

What?
Xu Jing wondered if he was hallucinating, so he quickly stopped raising the flame.

Turning his eyes, he didn't dare to believe it was true until he saw the prompt message that suddenly appeared on the system interface.

Ghosts can absorb energy?

"Boy, don't worry, in order to thank you for providing me with such delicious food, I will let you suffer less pain, um... I will devour your soul first, and then slowly enjoy your body."

The ghost's cold and heartless voice sounded in Xu Jing's mind. Before he had time to think about it, he clicked on the "Yes" option.

"what--!"

Suddenly, there was a miserable scream.

"how come?!"

"Why is this..."

The smoke that hadn't completely entered Xu Jing's body in front of him expanded and contracted violently in an instant, as if struggling desperately, but there was no room for resistance at all. It was pulled and torn apart by an invisible force, and disappeared piece by piece.

"..."

Xu Jing finally felt that his body could move, and he looked at the origin point that was constantly beating and increasing, with a look of disbelief.
