Immortal Cultivation Upgrade Package

Chapter 31

In order to get to Chi County as soon as possible, Zhang Yuze flew almost at full speed, but even so, it took three days. This speed made him extremely envious of the foundation-building monks who could fly with swords. When he arrived in Chi County, he felt uneasy. The feeling was lingering in Zhang Yuze's heart. It was a little surprising that Chi County was still full of people, without any threat, which was different from what was described on the jade slips he got from Ziqiao.

Surrounding Chixian County, Zhang Yuze landed in a relatively remote place and slowly walked into the county. It was at noon at this time. Although the county was not big, it was considered prosperous, but all the residents liked it. He cast a curious look, with some panic, which made him feel a little strange.

I found the only restaurant in the county and sat down. There was no one here except the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper was a little surprised when he saw Zhang Yuze, but he came over quickly: "Guest officer, do you want some food?"

Zhang Yuze nodded: "Just order some side dishes and a pot of wine."

The shopkeeper bent down, answered and went down. Zhang Yuze saw people coming home and walking in a hurry. It seemed that there was something strange about this place. After a while, the shopkeeper served the dishes: "Guest officer, slow down!" Use, stay here tonight." After saying that, he even went to close the shop.

Zhang Yuze asked curiously: "It's still early at this time, why did you close the shop?"

The shopkeeper, who was about 40 years old, quickly closed the door and said, "Guest officer, you are a foreigner, so it's not surprising that you don't know anything about this county. Recently, the county is haunted by ghosts."

"Haunted? But this county is no different."

The shopkeeper fixed all the door panels, then closed all the windows, lit the oil lamps, and said with a little panic: "The guest officer doesn't know, this haunting happened a month ago, and it was still in Lixian City What happened in Chenjia Village some distance away, a lot of livestock in that village were inexplicably eaten at night for no reason, and the next day they saw a pool of blood without even bones. At that time, the villagers thought it was done by wolves, but Then it got worse and worse."

After talking halfway, the shopkeeper sat down in front of Zhang Yuze and continued: "Later, many people who went out at night in that village also disappeared for no reason. The government didn't find any clues, so everyone thought it was something dirty and invited a lot of Taoist priests to come. Catching ghosts, but those Taoist priests all died unexpectedly. The situation became more and more serious. The people in Chenjia Village had fled long ago. Later, this kind of thing happened even in the county town. Anyone who went out at night would disappear for no reason. There is only a pool of blood, but it has improved a lot in the past few days, I heard that the court sent a mage, but everyone still dare not go out at night."

Seeing the panicked expression on the shopkeeper's face, Zhang Yuze frowned. It is impossible for ordinary ghosts to appear in the sun. Wouldn't it be more direct to hunt and kill livestock to directly absorb the living souls of humans?This situation reminded Zhang Yuze of some ghosts in previous legends, but in this world, there are only spirit beasts and no monsters.

"Shopkeeper, where is the Chen Family Village you mentioned?"

The shopkeeper's face was shocked: "Guest officer, don't go there. There is no one in that place. Even in the daytime, it is very gloomy. If you go there, you will die."

Zhang Yuze smiled: "The shopkeeper was joking, I just asked casually."

The shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, anyway, the place is very evil, the guest officer should finish eating quickly and then rest, and leave here as soon as possible tomorrow, now this county is full of people from the surrounding villages, the original The residents who had some money left long ago, if I didn’t want to part with this store handed down from my ancestors, I would have left too.”

After finishing speaking, the shopkeeper looked regretful and entered the back hall.

Suddenly, a strange feeling came to Zhang Yuze's heart. He squinted his eyes, left the restaurant, and headed towards the strange place. About a quarter of an hour later, he noticed a light emitting from the distance, and there were intermittent sounds of people shouting. He immediately speeded up and rushed towards that place.

However, Zhang Yuze was horrified when he entered the scene. He saw a person fighting a monster with a human head and a snake body. That person was a disciple of Ruoshui Sect. From time to time, green mist spewed out from his mouth. The man was holding a magical sword, and he could only dodge continuously, but couldn't fight back at all. Zhang Yuze suddenly let out a thunderbolt from his palm, hitting the tail of the monster with the head of a man and the body of a snake, and the monster roared in pain , looked at Zhang Yuze who was in the air, and then fled quickly, which was surprisingly fast.

Zhang Yuze lowered his figure, lifted the already exhausted disciple of Ruoshui Sect on the ground, and took out two Huiyuan Pills for him to swallow. After half an hour, he recovered more than half of his body. After seeing Zhang Yuze, the man immediately saluted: "Disciple Gao Greetings, Uncle Master."

"Excuse me, what was the monster that fought with you before?" Zhang Yuze was quite concerned about the monster's eyes, especially the one that stared at him at the end. He received the palm thunder that he sent out with all his strength, but he didn't seem to be injured at all, which had to make him more vigilant.

Gao Jing articulated what he knew, and he didn't know what this monster was. When he received the entrustment from Jing Guojun, he thought it was just a general ghost, and he could solve it with a few thunder talismans. , However, after arriving here, he realized that things were far from being as simple as he thought.

I met this unknown monster on the first day. After seeing Gao Jing, I fought a lot, but his strength was very poor, so I was easily beaten back by him and escaped quickly. Gao Jing was always searching, However, the monster's residence was never found. It was not until five days ago that the monster showed up to fight him again, but this time it surprised Gao Jing. The monster's strength rose so fast that he could only blindly Defense, if he didn't have some spells and Huiyuan Dan in his hand, he might be in trouble. It was also this time that he asked the sect for help.

Afterwards, he also relied on spells and Huiyuan Dan to fight against this monster. Every time he fought, he found that the monster became stronger. Today, this monster beat him even more, and his charms and Huiyuan Dan were very few left. , if Zhang Yuze didn't show up, I'm afraid I would have to explain here.

Zhang Yuze lowered his head and thought for a while: "Have you reported the appearance of this monster to Zongmen?"

Gao Jing shook his head: "This disciple thinks that the master uncle of the sect can easily kill this monster, so he thinks it doesn't matter what the monster is, so..."

Zhang Yuze could tell from Gao Jing's gaze that he was not at all satisfied with his support, which was only at the seventh level of Qi Refining, and smiled slightly: "Tell me everything you know about the monsters." .”

Gao Jing immediately told all he knew. Although Zhang Yuze was not in the foundation building stage, after all, the other party was a true disciple, his uncle, and his strength was higher than himself. The cultivation world may not value seniority, but for Zhang Yuze Cultivation is very important.

After Zhang Yuze listened to it, he roughly understood, and threw Gao Jing a bottle of Huiyuan Pill: "Take it, and search around with me." Yuan formed a light cluster in his hands, illuminating the distance around him.

Although the eyesight of cultivators is much better than that of ordinary people, their cultivation level is not high, and the night will still affect their observation.

"Uncle Master, this monster has been running towards the mountain the past few times. Its lair is probably in this mountain." Gao Jing said.

Zhang Yuze also nodded. The monster left traces on the ground, but it disappeared completely on a mountain wall ten miles away. Now, the mountain walls are no different."

Zhang Yuze circled around several times, knocked on the mountain wall carefully, listened with pricked ears, smiled slightly, and punched down at a nearby mountain wall, and a big cave was revealed on the mountain wall .
