spirit walker

Chapter 129 Cats

It's really a horror, a horror that is different from the supernatural elements.

Looking at the skinned cat corpse hanging on the beam of the room, Zhang Yuanqing muttered silently in his heart.

Whether someone slipped in or something slipped out, it was not a good thing. Everyone looked at each other silently, with vigilance and solemnity in their eyes.

Only "Li Li Yuan Shang Cao" changed from being quiet and melancholy to full of anger, and said in a low voice:

"Such a brutal killing of animals is not allowed. I will make her pay the price. Everyone, let's just kill Wang Po."

Zhang Yuanqing glanced at him and said:
"Don't be impulsive, there is obviously a plot in this Wang Po, let's wait and see what happens, just wait for the trigger mission. Heh, according to my experience of clearing two S-level dungeons, thinking more and doing less is the formula for survival.

"Because the error tolerance rate of the S-level copy is too low, a small move may cost you your life."

"Please call me Queen" turned to look at the wood demon boy, the two silver rings on the earlobe shook accordingly, and said:

"The captain is right. The more advanced the dungeon, the fewer reminders, and there are dangers everywhere. This is not like the C-level and D-level dungeons we encountered before. The mission requirements and rules are clearly told to you.

"This kind of difficult dungeon, if you make a wrong step, the group may be destroyed."

Li Chunfeng pondered for a while, and said: "The reverse is also the same. Maybe we can solve the incident smoothly by killing Wang Po now. Heh, this is like Schrödinger's cat."

The Fire German Star Army was stunned: "Who is Schrödinger, and does he also like to abuse cats?"

The knowledgeable Li Chunfeng was stunned, and opened his mouth with a strange expression. After some struggles, he gave up popular science and said:
"more or less."

The Fire German Star Army nodded, glanced at the room across the courtyard, and saw that Wang Po hadn't come out yet, so he whispered:
"Have you ever thought about why cat corpses are hung instead of chickens, ducks, geese, sheep and dogs? If it is the latter, we might still have a meal here."

He asked this to mean that there must be a reason for hanging the cat corpse, maybe it was a reminder from the dungeon.

Zhang Yuanqing expressed his opinion from the perspective of Ye Youshen, saying: "These cat corpses belong to yin and are yin materials. Extracting yin qi can nourish yin spirits and can also be used to refine zombies."

Li Chunfeng added:

"It can also be used to make props, perform special ceremonies, be used in witchcraft and so on."

Just as she was talking, the wooden door creaked open, and Wang Po leaned on a cane and came out with a hunched back, holding a white porcelain teapot with bright glaze in her hand.

Li Xianzong led his teammates on the sidewalk, beside a small river that crossed the ancient town, and a stone bridge built with bluestone was built on the river.

"It's such a shabby place, there's not even a person, let alone a beautiful girl." The skinny middle-aged man looked around and cursed.

Among the several multiplayer spirits he has experienced in the past, one scene was the Midnight Hotel, where a cold-blooded murderer was hidden in the hotel. The task of the dungeon was to find and kill the powerful criminal.

There are still many "civilians" living in the hotel. Those civilians are no different from real people. During the mission, the middle-aged man played with many women who lived in the hotel.

No moral value is deducted.

For evil professions, the dungeon of the spirit realm is not only an opportunity to upgrade and grow, but also a paradise to indulge evil thoughts. They can do anything in it, but they don't have to pay the price.

"Yin Yang Town is against the spirit-like environment, not the exclusive spirit environment of our professions, so there can't be an environment that allows you to do whatever you want." The bald man looked at the skinny middle-aged man, and said:

"Before you became a voodoo master, you wouldn't be a rapist, would you?"

The skinny middle-aged man smiled lewdly and said, "I can only say that those security guards are too incompetent. What about you?"

The bald man said lightly: "Kill! Li Xianzong, we have already spent 8 minutes, if we can't find a blacksmith shop, we will be finished."

when!when!when!
Just as they were talking, they vaguely heard the sound of iron tools being hammered.

Li Xianzong looked ahead, with the corners of his mouth raised: "Isn't it here?"

The teammates were overjoyed: "It really made you guess right, it's on this street."

"Guess?" Li Xianzong mocked:
"Think about it with your pig brains. The blacksmith shop is open for business, and it will not be in a deep alley. High-temperature smelting needs to maintain air circulation, and deep houses and courtyards can also be excluded. Quenching requires a lot of water, and the river is the best choice.

"Look along the main road by the river, and you will definitely find it."

Just as they were talking, they stopped in front of the blacksmith's shop. A burly figure with a height of two meters lowered his head and swung a hammer, hitting the iron embryo one after another.

Li Xianzong looked at the other party and asked, "Are you Blacksmith Wang?"

The blacksmith slowly raised his head, revealing blood-red eyes.

"Thank you mother-in-law."

Zhang Yuanqing held the teacup and glanced at the wood demon boy.

Li Liyuan Shangcao took a sip and nodded slightly.

Zhang Yuanqing immediately felt relieved and took a sip of herbal tea.

As a recovery warlock, the wood demon is very sensitive to toxins. If there is a problem with the water, he can't hide it from him.

Guan Ya and the others drank water to moisten their throats, or were careful not to touch them. They were thinking about the next step of the plot, when they heard Yuanshi Tianzun, the captain, ask very familiarly:
"Wang Po, why is there no one in the town? We walked all the way, but we didn't see anyone."

Wang Po's old voice said slowly:
"The town used to be very lively, but something happened a few years ago, and everyone gradually moved away from Yinyang Town."

"Oh? What's the matter?" Zhang Yuanqing asked quickly.

The plot is triggered. Everyone cheers up immediately.

"This." Wang Po seemed to be a bit taboo, she was silent for a while, and said:
"Many years ago, one day suddenly, people in the town died one after another, and their hearts were taken away. Everyone was very scared, and they all said that there were evil things in the town. Zhao Yuanwai, the richest man in the town, invited them from the outside. got the mage.

"After the mage came to the town, not long after, he caught the culprit. It turned out to be a descendant of Yin Yang Sanren, who secretly harmed the people in the town and used their hearts to make alchemy. Everyone and the mage worked together to eradicate that witch. .

"Before she died, she cursed the people in the town, cursing that everyone would turn into cats."

The descendant of Yin Yang Sanren. Zhang Yuanqing and his teammates looked at each other and asked, "And then?"

Wang Po sighed: "At first, everyone didn't pay attention, but gradually, more and more people disappeared, and there were more and more cats in the town. That's why everyone was afraid, and they didn't dare to continue living in the town, and moved out one after another. "

This guy is very good at chatting. The queen glanced at Zhang Yuanqing with a smile, and took over the conversation:
"Then why doesn't the mother-in-law leave?"

Wang Po shook her head: "I'm old and don't want to leave my hometown. I'm a person with one foot in the coffin. Don't be afraid of these."

The wooden demon boy looked up, looked at the skinned cat corpse hanging on the beam, and said in a deep voice:

"Then why are you hanging these cats here?"

Wang Po said unhurriedly: "This is the method left by the mage. He said that hanging the cat's corpse in the house and peeling off the skin can prevent the curse."

The wooden demon boy sneered.

He just said that he is not afraid of curses.

Zhang Yuanqing asked again: "Grandma, who is that Yin-Yang Sanren, and why did his descendants poach people's hearts and make alchemy?"

Wang Po said with emotion: "Yin-Yang Sanren is a master of Taoism. It is said that he is a fairy-like figure. Not long after he established this town, he ascended to become a fairy. The old woman has heard this from her elders since she was a child. Whether it is true or false Know.

"His descendants stayed in this town. Because of Yin Yang Sanren, everyone respects her very much. Who would have thought that she would do such a thing."

Zhang Yuanqing lowered his eyebrows and thought, why were the monks in the Ming Dynasty so wicked?The temple in Sandao Mountain slaughtered disciples, and the descendants of Yin Yang Sanren took the hearts and livers to make alchemy.

"She is the only descendant of Yin-Yang Sanren?" Zhang Yuanqing took a sip of herbal tea.

"Yes, most of the descendants of the Yin-Yang Sanren died young. It is said that it was because one person ascended to the ascension and exhausted the vitality of the family." Wang Po said.

But in fact, the Yin-Yang Sanren did not soar, and his goal of longevity and long-sight has failed. Could it be related to longevity by digging his heart and liver to make alchemy? Zhang Yuanqing was thinking about it, when Guan Ya asked:
"Grandma, besides us, have any foreigners come to the town before?"

Wang Po glanced at her and said quietly, "Yes."

"Then what are they doing here?" Guan Ya smiled.

Wang Po hesitated and said, "The old lady doesn't remember."

Others didn't know why Guan Ya asked this question, but Zhang Yuanqing and the queen were stunned for a moment, and then fell into deep thought.

They have read several guides, and there is no mention of the curse in those guides.And in the content of the strategy, Yinyang Town is not empty, otherwise how would we solve the case in the inn.

Is it because of the constant changes in the dungeon, each batch of spirit realm walkers have different side missions?

If this is the case, can I still encounter the hidden mission that the Demon Lord said?The branches he and I experienced are definitely different.
If the hidden mission can only be triggered by a fixed branch, it would be too cheating and unfair.

Forget it, regardless of the hidden mission, what is this side mission that we trigger Wang Po?Break the curse?

Thinking of this, Zhang Yuanqing tentatively asked: "Grandma, do you need our help?"

Wang Po shook her head.

Li Chunfeng, a bachelor, checked and filled in the gaps, saying:
"Grandma, besides you, is there anyone else in the town?"

Wang Po thought for a while, and said in an old voice:

"Besides the old lady, there are five other people. One is Widow Xu from the west of the town, and the other is Yuanwai Zhao, who lives in the center of the town. The largest house is his home. One is Blacksmith Wang.

"There is also the sorcerer invited by Yuanwai Zhao. I don't know where he lives."

The round-faced young man was taken aback when he ate the lotus root: "There are only five, how about one more?"

Wang Po looked at him and said:
"The last one was the old woman's son"

Eat lotus root surprised: "Your son? Where is he?"

Wang Po looked back at the room she just came out of, and said quietly, "He's inside."

As she said that, she turned her head and looked at the crowd, with a wrinkled old face showing a strange smile:

"You'll see him soon."

For some reason, Zhang Yuanqing's heart sank instinctively.

Immediately, he saw a terrifying scene. The pupils of the Fire German Star Army sitting opposite him shrank into slits and turned into green cat's eyes. Thick black hair grew on his cheeks, neck, and back of his hands.

His mouth and nose bulge out, and he has a spiky cat on his head.

In a few seconds, the Fire German Star Army turned into a black cat with a body length of [-] centimeters.

"Yuan, the beginning of Yuan."

Zhang Yuanqing heard Guan Ya's trembling voice.

Turning her head to look, Guan Ya's face changed color, and she looked at herself strangely.

What's the matter? He blurted out subconsciously, but the sound came to his throat, and what he uttered was a long, thin and sharp meow.

With a shudder in his heart, he looked down at himself and saw a hand covered with cat fur.

Unspeakable panic surged in Zhang Yuanqing's heart, and he didn't notice anything wrong with his body at all.

At the same time, the wood demon boy, the earth monster eating lotus root, and the bachelor Li Chunfeng, his appearance changed drastically. Cat hairs of different colors emerged from his pores, his lips and jaw protruded, cat ears grew out of his head, and his body shrank rapidly.

Then there is Guan Ya and the Queen.

"Meow, meow~"

Cats meowed one after another, and the seven people all turned into cats with different coat colors.

Wang Po leaned on a cane, stood in the shadows, looked into the room, and said hoarsely:

"Finally a foreigner is here, son, you can't wait."
