Lord of Immortals

Chapter 13 Water Monkeys Also Raise Pigs
"No, no, even Lu Hualong may have just coaxed the gentry in the city to help, and in the end he may have sold them to some ghost clan, dragon nest, etc."

"After all, it's painful enough to split the accounts with Yelu Yuyan, so why would you want to share the profits?"

While Ge Xian speculated about Lu Hualong's viciousness, the other salesmen were frightened.

Dozens of "demon" suddenly emerged from the surrounding area. If the government officials hadn't warned them in advance, they would all be pissed and running away in all directions.

Ge Xian had known this, so he took the opportunity to peep more now.

The reason why he could tell that these monks came from various wealthy gentry families in Qiantang County was because of their conspicuous clothes and because he knew some of them personally.

"The middle-aged man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, a deer head and rat eyes, and black and soft rat hair all over his body, is clearly the second shopkeeper of the [Gongjia Rice Shop] in the city. Looking at his appearance, he must have used some kind of magic weapon related to the 'rat demon' 'Relevant foreign objects or flesh and blood enter the Tao, wouldn't the evil habit be stealing oil and eating it?"

"The man who couldn't close his mouth and spat out strips of fleshy tendrils was actually the younger brother of Song Zhengyan, the great lawyer in the city, and the third son of the Song family. With such an appearance, one knows what kind of evil he had practiced or what kind of path he had attained."

"There is also that old man who looks kind-hearted, but his exposed skin is densely covered with needles. He is also wearing the doctor's robe from [Keats Medical Center]. I wonder what kind of method this is?"

"The weirdest thing is that woman. In my original memory, I remember that she was the eldest daughter-in-law of the Wang family, a large cloth dealer. She seemed to have a human form, but her soft and boneless hands were filled with terrifying powers... Could it be that , he practices weird martial arts like the Bone Transforming Palm."

……

Ge Xian was half watching, half guessing, and almost knew the entire capabilities of the escort team.

At the same time, he also confirmed one thing again:
Although those sent by these wealthy gentry must be low-level monks.

But it is enough to judge that once one starts to practice Taoism in this world of cultivation, one will gradually lose his human form.

"Even so, as long as they can enter Taoism and practice, all mortals will flock to it."

"After all, no one can endure the temptation of otherworldliness, even though the first level [rejection] is enough to kill most of the people who try it."

When Ge Xian sighed, the propaganda team and the escort team were already setting off.

Amid the jubilation all over the city, he left Qiantang County and followed the orders of the great County Master Yin to go outside the county to recruit homeless refugees and savages back to Qiantang.

The weather is not good today!

As soon as they left the city, everyone saw that under the dark sky, there was an endless expanse of wilderness, dense forests and mountains, no matter where they were, they were all eerie and terrifying in their own way. The official road, which is not wide, extends to other human race gathering places like a small snake or a small earthworm.

Looking a little closer, you can vaguely hear some sharp roars and cries of unknown meaning. With a slightly more sinister vision, you can also see the shadows of jackals and wolves running around.

These unworthy monsters smelled the smell of "fresh humans" and jumped out of the barren graves one after another. They stared at the propaganda team from a distance with pairs of scarlet eyes, and their laughter dripped all over the floor.

As soon as the team started to get restless, Zhang Yu and Zhao Wuyou, the fugitive government servants leading the team at the front, sneered at the same time and said comfortingly:

"Why are you panicking? These evil beasts don't dare to approach. Last night we were ordered to sprinkle the Gu-Eating God's liquid around Qiantang. The smell of the Gu-Eating Spirit God enveloped the entire county. Don't say that these are contaminated with evil spirits. Even if the real monster comes, you won’t dare to enter the city.”

"Validity period, at least half a year."

The two ghosts said this, but in fact they could not comfort the salesmen. After all, they were going out of the city to the countryside.

But after Ge Xian heard this, his heart moved and he was asked to guess another secret.

"Ah!"

"The so-called Gu-Eating Divine Serum is probably [Qiongqi's] urine. It is diluted with water and then spread around to deter monsters from approaching."

"The half-year period is the time limit for the perverted couple Lu Hualong and Yelu Yuyan to raise pigs."

"Okay, okay, there's still time."

Ge Xian finished thinking.

Over there, two ghosts, Zhang Yuyou and Zhao Wuyou, said loudly:
"Please remember, it is dangerous outside the city. Although we are here to protect you, you still need to abide by the rules. You are not allowed to run around or make any unusual movements."

"The first place we are going to is Jiudao Village by the Qiantang River. There was a disaster there a few days ago. The water monsters and water ghosts at the bottom of the river invaded and ate up half of the village's population. Now we need to go and preach. As long as you enter Qiantang County and are protected by Mr. Lu, you don't have to worry about these things."

"set off!"

These ghosts and evil cultivators must have gained a lot of benefits, so their enthusiasm is high.

With them guarding them, no matter how frightened the salesmen and merchants were, they could not struggle and had no choice but to follow them obediently.

Leave the city and go to the countryside.

As soon as we deviated from the official road, we passed through a sparse wild forest, and a wild wind with a slightly earthy smell blew.

All the salesmen and traders felt the intrusion of invisible malice. They shrank their heads, folded their arms, their hairs stood up, and they swallowed saliva frantically.

And Ge Xian felt even more uncomfortable. He was extremely sensitive to all extraordinary auras, so at this moment, his mind began to roar, as if all kinds of sounds were intruding, screaming, roaring, whispering, laughing wildly, howling... which made his face immediately change. Pale, body trembling.

Fortunately, he is now considered a monk at the "Enter Dao Realm", and he quickly suppressed it, and learned to screen and screen.

It was a blessing in disguise that I was able to use my talents more deeply.

The next moment, warning signs broke out in his heart, and he exclaimed in his heart: "It's not good..."

Ge Xian had no time to think about whether to expose himself as a reminder, and a dangerous change had arrived.

Following a sharp howl, hundreds of strange jackals jumped out from all directions in the wild forest at the same time, rushing towards the team crazily.

Ge Xian has very sharp eyesight and can see clearly with just one glance.

These monsters are extremely ugly, with a dog-like appearance, with chestnut brown bodies, long beaks, yellow and sparse teeth, and tongues covered with barbs. They scream like ghosts, and they run like ghosts and can cross dozens of feet in the blink of an eye. From a distance, he rushed towards a group of salesmen and foot traders.

They are not helpless, but how can they resist such monsters?
As soon as I got close, the smelly breath of these "ghost dogs" was sprayed out, and my legs went limp, and I almost urinated.

Fortunately, at this time, the guards showed their power.

I saw the two ghosts roaring and transforming together, and said with a ferocious smile:
"Don't panic, don't panic, this is a good thing."

"Fellow fellow Taoists, these beasts are called [Tsubaki-tailed Ghost Jackals]. They are originally wild dogs. They became alienated from eating too much human flesh. They like to eat people, especially babies. They are not a threat. The ghost energy in their bodies is the same as that of my brother." There is some benefit to the two of them, so there is no need to kill them with cruel methods, just maim them all and leave them to us two brothers to devour."

Before he finished speaking, dozens of evil cultivators from the escort team appeared to face the group of ghost jackals.

No one expected that a fight would happen so quickly after leaving the city.

This group of ghost jackals attracted by the smell of fresh human flesh, as the two ghosts said, were no threat to the monks.

No matter which evil cultivator they are, they can easily break their skulls and spines.

For a time, the screams of ghosts could be heard again and again.

The salesmen and merchants huddled together and tried their best to avoid it.

Ge Xian mingled among them and took the opportunity to spy on the methods of the evil cultivators. He immediately saw clearly and corrected his previous wrong guesses.Of course, there are also correct guesses.

For example, [Wang's parents-in-law] really practices "cunning martial arts".His method is also similar to the bone-turning cotton palm. He slaps it with a light palm, and the ghost jackal that rushes towards him immediately turns into a ball of soft flesh and smashes down with a squeak.

While watching the battle, Ge Xian felt unexpected and dangerous.

After looking around, he quickly picked up a branch that was thick at the bottom and pointed at the top.

Sure enough, something surprising happened in the next breath:
Because there was a big difference in numbers between the two sides, and the two ghosts told the evil cultivators not to be too cruel.

With their hands and feet restrained, someone was always careless, and seven or eight "Tsubaki-tailed Ghost Jackals" broke in. One by one, seven salesmen were caught in an instant. The unlucky ones were dragged to the ground on the spot and bitten on the neck. There, blood splattered, directly claiming his life.

Ge Xian was also stared at by a ghost jackal. When he raised his head, he saw the face of a dog with a long beak coming towards him, and the smell was overwhelming.

"Beast!"

With a curse, Ge Xian did not use the power in his body, but only relied on his senses to squat down and lift the sharp branch.

The next moment, accompanied by howling and screaming, the belly of this ferocious ghost jackal was cut open by Ge Xiansheng. As it rushed past, the hot organs and intestines were scattered on the ground, and the remaining contents inside could be vaguely seen. Some human flesh, teeth, hair and other objects.

The miracle of a single kill was naturally due to Ge Xian's excellent timing.

To others, it seemed that the ghost jackal took the initiative to open its belly and bump the tip of the young salesman's stick, marveling at his good luck.

At about the same time, the two ghosts led a group of evil cultivators to kill the Juegui jackals, and quickly returned to help to deal with the remaining ones.

It's a pity that two salesmen have died in the short time since the accident happened.

Regarding this, neither the two ghosts nor the evil cultivators had any intention of giving an explanation.

He didn't even say a word of apology, but only told the salesmen and dealers to be smarter. Then they saw that Zhang Wuyou and Zhao Wuyou maintained their true nature of "supporting ghosts to death" and "starving ghosts to death" and swallowed up all the ghosts and jackals on the ground. into bones.

Each showed an orgasmic expression, patted their belly, and shouted:
"Keep going!"

……

Before reaching the first boundary, two people were reduced.

The salesmen and foot traders once again felt the danger outside Qiantang County. Although they were mostly dissatisfied, they were extremely cautious during the rest of the journey. They stayed close to the two ghosts and a group of escorts, fearing that they would suffer another inexplicable disaster and lose their lives. .

And then, as expected, we encountered many dangers.

In addition to low-class monsters such as the Tsubaki-tailed Ghost Jackal, there are also some unbelievable, terrifying and inexplicable phenomena.

For example, if there is a strange wind called "Meng Po Wind", as long as it blows, you will immediately lose your body and soul, become sluggish, forget everything, and follow the wind to wander deep into the wilderness.

Even monks cannot be exempted if they only enter the Tao realm.

Fortunately, this wind is tangible, gray-white in color, and not very fast. The naked eye can see it in advance and get out of the way.

There is another foreign object called "Burning Heart Fire" that can be born out of thin air. It starts out as a green-scaled flame as big as a fist. It seems to be alive and very fast. It will actively collide with living creatures. Once it is hit by it, Immediately, the flames of self-immolation will be triggered, emanating from within, and can burn a person into bones in just three or two breaths.

Fortunately, most of the fires are born in the wilderness, so just avoid them and walk.

Even with the guidance of this knowledge, before everyone arrived at the "Nine Knife Village", another salesman and a foot trader died.

This is the case even before the large number of homeless savages are found. If they are found, the team will suddenly expand ten or a hundred times. How can safety be guaranteed?

Zhang Yuyou and Zhao Wuyou also thought about this, but for a while they couldn't think of a solution and could only be furious.

Along the way, he kept shouting and cursing.

On the opposite side was Ge Xian, who was mixed in with the team, with brilliant eyes and surging thoughts.

After a lot of experience, he gradually confirmed one thing: his extraordinary perception range was wide and sharp enough to crush all the monks in the field.

Whether it was spirits, monsters, or mysterious visions, there was no way to hide it from him.

Every time, he was informed in advance.

That is to say!

If this team, or even the expanded team, were led by Ge Gonglang, no one would be lost.

Although he had this idea, Ge Xian did not act rashly.

First, the time has not come yet!
Second, he hasn’t seen the benefits yet!
And these two things, he waited for soon.

After some twists and turns, the team soon arrived at Jiudao Village on the edge of the Qiantang River.

This is a large village, located near the river, with hundreds of households and thousands of villagers. According to reports, it was hit by a disaster not long ago and many of them were eaten.

After everyone arrived, they immediately beat gongs and drums to attract the remaining villagers to give lectures.

Soon everyone knew that they were wrong, and there was no need for a "preaching team" here.

There are about 600 people surviving in the village, no matter men, women, old or young, all of them are sallow and thin, in shock, with fear in their faces and eyes.

I heard that they were from Qiantang County and were escorted by dozens of monks and generals under the county Yin command. They were invited to take refuge in the county seat and they could be provided with money and food after they settled down.

Immediately, everyone cheered and expressed gratitude. The more excited ones knelt down and shouted Magistrate Lu's honorable name from the air.

Without wasting any words, these villagers rushed to agree, took the initiative to return to the house, and quickly packed their luggage.

So smooth!

Everyone is in a good mood.

Only Ge Xian, whose expression changed slightly at this moment, stared intently at the turbulent Qiantang River not far away. It was obviously broad daylight, but there were gray-black water clouds rising on the water surface, like dragons, rolling endlessly.

And in Ge Xian's huge "perception", there were dozens of extraordinary energy gatherings filled with cold and evil in the reefs and caves near the river bottom.

As if waiting for a certain opportunity, ready to make a move.

When Ge Xian thought back for a moment, what the two ghosts said about the information about Jiudao Village, he immediately had an incredible but extremely reasonable guess in his heart, and he couldn't help but scolded his mother:
"This ghost world!"

"Yelu Yuyan and Lu Hualong, a perverted couple with rich backgrounds, just raise pigs and sell them to the city. How come a group of water monsters, water ghosts, and water monkeys also learned to raise humans in captivity?"

"You can eat it as much as you want, but keep half of it to continue growing and wait for the next harvest, right?"

When he finished scolding, Ge Xian also made a decision in his heart.
