The Bloody Taoist

The entire Heiyun Mountain is backed by the vast mountains, covering a vast area, with steep mountains, complex terrain, and many inaccessible places.

There are many primitive cottages and villages of different sizes scattered in the mountains.

Most of the residents in these mountains are unruly mountain people who live a simple and unpretentious life.

Although many cottages are nominally under the jurisdiction of Xianshan County, due to their special geographical location, located on the border of Nanchu and inconvenient transportation, they are basically self-sufficient.

As one of many cottages, Qingshi Village has a very strong overall strength.

It is said that this village was built by a Buddhist monk from Gu.

This casual cultivator brought the method of collecting qi and practicing it and passed it down, which enabled some people in Qingshi Village to practice and improve their own strength.

In addition, most of the residents in Qingshi Village have the surname Mo, and many of their direct descendants have become private cultivators.

More importantly, the ancestral spirit of Qingshi Village was officially pardoned by the Southern Chu State and was revered as the local land god.

Therefore, it is also an important stronghold for nearby casual cultivators. Many hermit cultivators who are not hidden in the mountains will come to the stockade to exchange for supplies. There are even monsters from the Cangmang Mountain occasionally appearing.

Naturally, few people would provoke Qingshi Village with such strength.

However, two months ago, some rumors circulated in the village. It was said that someone discovered an ancient Qi Refiner's tomb nearby, and found many spiritual stones and treasures inside.

Since then, no one from the village has been seen in the nearby counties and cities, and even the land gods in the village have lost contact with the court!

In the Black Cloud Mountain, Zuo Yinyang and his party did not dare to delay and were always on their way.

As the three of them walked, they soon realized something was wrong.

Mounds of earth began to appear in the surrounding snow, and they seemed to have arrived at a mass grave.

Thick snow covered the mass graves, making this already gloomy land look even more dead and desolate.

The three of them wanted to leave this place as soon as possible, but they walked for an hour and still did not get out of this cemetery.

You must know that the speed of the three of them is comparable to that of a fast horse, and they can run fifty or sixty miles in a row. There is no such a large area of ​​​​cemeteries in this deep mountain.

The sky was gray, and snowflakes were falling like goose feathers, quietly covering the dilapidated tombstones and dead branches.

On the ground, the messy tombstones were buried in the snow, and the exposed corner of the stone monument looked particularly cold. Many tombstones have collapsed, and broken stones are scattered in the snow, forming a mottled trail.

The withered trees look even more lonely in the heavy snow. The dead branches are covered with crystal ice, and when the wind blows, they make a crisp cracking sound.

A few crows huddled in the treetops in the distance, their black silhouettes in stark contrast to the white snowy landscape. Their cries were particularly harsh in the silent snowy night.

The paper man sitting on the paper horse coughed and frowned and said:

"The situation is not right. Please be careful. I came to Qingshi Village five years ago and I don't remember that there is a cemetery on this road."

After hearing this, He Qingni, who was walking at the front, quickly slowed down and approached the two of them.

Zuo Yinyang immediately increased his vigilance. He adjusted his five senses to the maximum, and soon he caught a very light fishy smell.

He carefully identified and determined the location.

Then, he kicked a stone under his feet towards a dead bush on the side of the road.

Hiss~~

There was a commotion, followed by a low sound.

"Who?"

When He Qingni heard the sound, he was startled. Like a frightened bird, he quickly spit out a cyan spell towards the place where the sound came from.

Bang--

It was surprising to see a giant python seven or eight meters long suddenly emerge from the bushes.

This giant python has a snow-white color all over its body, and its body is as thick as a bucket, which is scary.

It was so cleverly hidden in the snow that the three of them were completely unaware of its presence.

Just when He Qingni's spell was about to hit the giant python, its body was like white lightning, and it quickly jumped out of the trees, dodging the attack, and its huge figure drew an arc in the air.

Snowflakes were flying, the fishy smell in the air became stronger, and a special kind of evil spirit filled the air.

This giant python is covered with cold white scales, and the scales shimmer in the cold wind, like a piece of carefully crafted armor.

Its blood-red eyes stared at Zuo Yin Yang, full of ferocity.

The long snake tongue spit out from the mouth flashed in the air like a sharp blade, making a "hissing" sound, which was chilling.

The giant python suddenly exerted force, and its body suddenly bounced, like a huge spring, and its entire body swooped towards the left Yin and Yang.

It opened its huge mouth, which was filled with sharp teeth, like a bottomless pit in a dark abyss, and it obviously wanted to swallow the person in front of it.

When Zuo Yinyang saw the sudden giant python, his whole body muscles tensed up instantly.

His five senses were mobilized to the extreme, and the scene in front of him seemed to become extremely clear.

Every scale and fishy smell of the giant python was clearly felt by him.

He took a deep breath and jumped back quickly, trying to avoid the python's attack.

However, the giant python was so fast that it approached Zuo Yin Yang almost instantly.

Its huge figure covered the sky and the sun, as if Zuo Yin Yang was completely shrouded in shadow.

Zuo Yinyang felt a huge pressure coming towards his face. The skin all over his body quickly became tough under the stimulation of the evil energy of earth blood, preparing to withstand the coming heavy blow.

At this critical moment, a golden flame shot out from the side and hit the giant python's side.

The flame brought a hot breath and instantly interrupted the giant python's attack.

The giant python let out a shrill roar, and its whole body fell heavily to the ground after being hit by the flame, rolling several times, and finally stopped powerlessly.

Zuo Yinyang took a breath and looked carefully, and found that the giant python was rolling painfully on the snow, and its blood-red eyes showed pain and fear.

Paper Man Zhang took action in time and sent out the life-saving flame.

At this time, He Qingni's tongue popped out of his mouth quickly, like a giant arrow, and was about to pierce the giant python on the ground.

"Wait!"

Paper Man Zhang shouted hurriedly, stopping He Qingni's attack.

The giant python rolled while using the snow water on the ground to suppress the open fire on its body.

Then, it turned around and kowtowed to the ground repeatedly, as if begging for mercy from them.

Seeing this, He Qingni dispersed the green evil spirit all over his body, put away the magic, and said: "It turned out to be a little demon that has not yet transformed!"

Zuo Yinyang then carefully observed the giant python and found that although it looked terrifying, there was a trace of wisdom in its eyes, and it was obviously spiritual.

Paper man Zhang jumped off the paper horse and slowly walked to the giant python.

He asked: "Can you speak human language?"

The giant python huddled into a ball, with fear in its eyes, and shook its head repeatedly.

He Qingni on the side said with disgust: "This little demon has not even been able to refine the transverse bone in its mouth. It is obvious that its Taoism is not enough. I don't think I can get anything out of it. Let's kill it and eat its meat.

Besides, I hate these snake demons the most."

As he said this, the evil spirit in his hand surged, and he was about to take action.

Seeing this, the giant python kowtowed like pounding garlic, and the core in its mouth swung wildly, constantly hissing.

Zhang the Paper Man hurriedly stopped He Qingni's actions. Then, he glanced at the giant python, and a small pair of black scissors and a piece of red talisman paper appeared in his hand. Then he used the scissors to quickly cut out an organ similar to a human tongue and throat.

After cutting, the scissors in his hand disappeared. Zhang the Paper Man lightly pinched the magic formula with his right hand, and the paper tongue turned directly into a red light and flew into the giant python's mouth.

The giant python did not react. After being shot by the red light, it twisted its body in pain. Then the hissing sound in his mouth slowly turned into a human voice

"Please spare my life, immortal! Please spare my life! Please spare my life, immortals!"
