My messenger is a little fox

"Ahri, you're lucky today! Finally you don't have to sleep in the wild!"

When it was getting dark, Li Yu discovered a ruined temple.

Pushing open the half-closed wooden door of the dilapidated temple in front of me, there was nothing inside except a mottled statue of the god and a broken altar table, except of course the cobwebs and thick dust. It was obvious that no one had been here for a long time. .

Although there is a small mountain village not far from the ruined temple, which has a better environment and even hot soup provided by kind people, Li Yu still chose this ruined temple resolutely.

After killing the short fat man named Huang Hu, Qing Huhui started looking for him like crazy.

In the past seven or eight days, he had penetrated nearly 200 miles into the Jiuli Mountains and encountered no less than five or six attempts by the Green Tiger Society.

Fortunately, he didn't meet a third-level spiritual master. In addition, he prepared a lot of green water chestnut powder to isolate the smell for this trip. He escaped every time, and even once he killed several people, which made him The other party's manhunt operations have been restrained a lot.

But Li Yu didn't dare to be careless at all, because the other party would definitely be fully prepared for the next encounter.

Li Yu bit into the cold dry food and drank the boiled water. Even though he had felt nauseated after eating for several days in a row, he did not dare to get angry.

Li Yu planned his itinerary while eating. After about thirty or fifty miles, he entered the depths of the Jiuli Mountains. There will be an obvious increase in wild monsters there, and they will become more ferocious. They are restricted to flying messengers below the third level. District is the purpose of Li Yu's trip.

As long as he enters there and loses the search of the flying spirit, it will be difficult for Qinghu to threaten him again. Instead, it will be those wild monsters that he needs to guard against.

There are almost no monsters of level 4 and above in the Jiuli Mountains. This is what Li Yu is most satisfied with, and it is also one of the important reasons why he chose this place as his first stop.

Due to its geographical location and being the largest source of resources in the mainland, the Jin Dynasty was extremely cautious in controlling the Jiuli Mountains.

Once a monster above the king level is discovered, strong men will be sent to kill, capture, or expel it. Therefore, this is also a famous training place for novices. Every year, countless low-level spiritual masters come here to practice and hunt. Some monster resources.

The night was completely dark. Li Yu hugged Ah Li and found a corner to rest against the wall.

Suddenly, a wind blew up from the temple, blowing up Li Yu's clothes, bringing a bit of coolness and waking him up. But Li Yu didn't see any movement in the tattered window paper through the moonlight outside.

This is strange! Apart from him and Ah Li, there was not even a mouse in the ruined temple. Where did the wind come from?

Li Yu opened his eyes wide, Ah Li's eyes also shone with a faint blue light in the darkness, and Huo Zhe's light lit up, but he still found nothing.

Li Yu extinguished the fire and maximized his perception. If he was still delusional, but with Ahri's reaction, it could only mean that there was something wrong. The past few days of being on the run had allowed him to correct his carelessness.

"call--"

Just as Li Yu was silently counting the time in his heart, wind blew from his ears, as if someone was caressing his cheek.

"who--"

Li Yu jumped up, a layer of fine beads of sweat forming on his forehead, while Ah Li climbed on his shoulder and screamed "Woo", looking here and there from time to time with a pair of shrinking big eyes.

Unfortunately, nothing was found.

"Snapped--"

The flames of the fire illuminated the ruined temple again, and there was nothing else on the ground except his and Ah Li's footprints. Li Yu refused to give up and took the fire to illuminate every corner of the temple until the fire burned out.

Li Yu felt weak, and Ah Li, who was hugging his shoulders, was actually trembling slightly. The most terrifying thing in this world is the unknown. It is as scary as the human imagination is.

"It's weird here, let's get out!" After saying that, Li Yu and Ah Li rushed out of the ruined temple.

A half-moon hangs in the sky, with a few stars dotted around it. The weather is nice tonight and there is no wind. The nights in the mountains are cooler, but it's a pity that one person and one fox failed to live up to the night in the mountains, and they all stared at the ruined temple.

The temple door automatically closed with a "snap" sound when there was no wind. The sound was not loud, but it made Li Yu's heart beat rapidly in this peaceful night.

A ball of white light suddenly appeared in the temple, looking hazy through the tattered window paper, as if floating in the air. Ah Li didn't dare to look anymore and hugged Li Yu's neck tightly, as if he wanted to bury his head in Li Yu's clothes.

Li Yu smiled.

If the other party didn't show the white light in a superfluous way, he would have run as far as he could without knowing what was true. But now, the truth was revealed in front of him.

Spirit monsters are monsters that are transformed into monsters by being nourished by spiritual power while their souls are lingering. They are extremely rare and are good at spiritual illusion attacks. They are somewhat similar to undead, but have much greater potential than undead. This kind of monster is invisible but ever-changing. It is not afraid of most physical and magical attacks. The most effective way to restrain it is to directly use spiritual energy to attack.

After appeasing Ah Li, Li Yu walked back to the ruined temple.

The spirit monsters in the temple obviously did not expect that Li Yu would dare to leave and come back, and they hurriedly transformed into various terrifying shapes inside. Unfortunately, Li Yu ignored them all and opened the door to enter the temple again.

A chill instantly enveloped Li Yu and the little fox, and a sense of depression spread from the bottom of their hearts to their whole bodies.

Li Yu smiled calmly, knowing where the problem was and it would be easier to solve. Li Yu mobilized his spiritual power to cover his whole body and the little fox, and a crackling sound like fried beans sounded in the seemingly empty air.

"what--"

A sharp and ear-piercing howl sounded in the air, and immediately Li Yu felt that the depression and chill around him melted away like ice and snow in the sun.

"Come out! I mean no harm! Although spiritual monsters are rare, they are not impossible." Li Yu said to the air.

The spirit monster did not appear, but instead the chill hit him again. As a result, he hit the spiritual power released by Li Yu, and the sharp howl sounded again.

"If you don't come out, I will destroy this statue!"

A large ice pick hung on the head of the statue. Li Yu sneered: "I am only here to stay for one night. I will leave early tomorrow morning and have no intention of disturbing this place. But you have teased me again and again. , or even a malicious attack, do you really think I won’t be a bad guest?”

"I'm counting to three. If you don't show up again, I will destroy the statue first and then burn this ruined temple!" Li Yu said coldly.

"One...two..."

"Don't—you bad guy, I won't allow you to destroy the master's statue..."

A translucent white light appeared in front of Li Yu, but the voice was more soft and cute like a little girl.

Under Li Yu's coercion and inducement, Guangtuan finally revealed his past and the reasons for his hostility towards Li Yu.

It turns out that this temple is dedicated to a king-level spiritual master who protected this village more than a hundred years ago. The villagers erected a statue of him in gratitude for his kindness.

When the spiritual master got old, he lived in seclusion in this village. Until his death, his spirit remained in the temple to accompany the statue.

Later, the spirit of the messenger also died, and by chance, the soul cultivated into a spiritual monster. However, due to its obsession during its lifetime, it has always regarded this temple as its own home and the statues in the temple as its own masters.

Later, the temple gradually became dilapidated and lost its incense, and it almost became a paradise for beasts and naughty children. Fortunately, the spirit body advanced to the second level at that time and had some means. In order to protect this home, the spirit body often pretended to be ghosts to scare away the people and animals that entered here. As a result, the news that the temple was haunted spread in the village. After that, no one came here except for the occasional spiritual masters who passed by. Those spiritual masters were also scared away because they could not detect the ghosts.

When Li Yu came over today, the spirit initially just wanted to scare him away, but in the end, because he was pretending to be a ghost, he saw through the truth.

"My name is Li Yu, and I am a spiritual master with unlimited potential! Make a contract with me!"

Li Yu's shamelessness caused his spirit body to swell four or five times in size, and Ah Li almost fell off his shoulder, "I can make you stronger! I know some methods of spiritual body cultivation. No one is repairing this temple. It won’t last for a few years, and this place is not suitable for spiritual cultivation. You won’t be able to successfully transform if you stay here for the rest of your life!”

"I don't want to make a contract with you! I have a master -" the spirit body said angrily.

Li Yu sneered, "The contract on you was already terminated when your master died. Not to mention that your body has also died. Now you are just a derivative of your soul. Even the most stringent contract in the world is no longer available to you. constraint……"

"What do you know? Even if the master and my body are no longer there, even if I only have a trace of my soul left, the master is still the master!"

After speaking, the spirit spirit dissipated in the air and refused to come out no matter how hard Li Yu tried to coerce him.

Li Yu sighed and played with Ah Li's chin with two fingers: "It's so difficult to fool a younger brother? Why do other people's younger brothers always come in groups..."

Ah Li gave him a big look, jumped to the ground to avoid Li Yu's hands, and found a clean place to sleep.

"My spirit body makes spirits..."

That night, Li Yu wanted to cry but had no tears...
