Chapter 28 Playing tricks on a ghost

Li Mo did not continue to dissect the wild boar's corpse. After all, just looking at the half-animal organs revealed in the Creation Book was enough to understand that the corpse had not practiced any techniques or techniques during its lifetime.

He shook his head slightly in confusion. The truth of seven thousand years was still half-hidden and half-revealed. It might be difficult to fully explore it just by contacting the Heart Beast Sect.

Li Mo, with a lot of thoughts, walked all the way to Heshen Village, but he never saw the other half-beasts again.

It was obvious that the half-beast was deliberately avoiding danger.

Li Mo suspected that the half-beast had lost the ability to speak, its intelligence had unknowingly deteriorated, and its behavior was more like habits passed down from generation to generation.

How the half-beasts thrive is unknown.

"This world is so crazy, just one Heart Beast Sect is so weird and inexplicable."

The drizzle fell sparsely.

The plum rainy days in summer are already humid, and thick fog rises from the mountains washed by the rain, causing Li Mo's vision to become narrowed.

Li Mo sighed. If there were more blank pages in the Book of Creation, the facial features would have to be imprinted on them anyway.

The magical powers bred by the five senses should be the most practical.

Li Mo took out his coir raincoat and bamboo hat, dressed neatly and continued walking.

You can only do this if your cultivation level is not high, otherwise you can release your spiritual power to block the raindrops.

He walked along the open river bank to the hillside upstream, and saw a dilapidated village hidden in the heavy fog.

The village is built entirely on the water, with houses supported by wooden piles.

Wooden houses are prone to decay due to moisture. Traces of fungus growth can be seen everywhere, and they creak when a gust of mountain wind blows.

The sound of broken bones came from the soles of Li Mo's feet.

He looked down and saw that a leg bone of an adult man was casually discarded on the roadside, and it was now hollowed out by insects.

Looking around, human bones can be seen everywhere, but at least three or four skeletons can be pieced together, mixed with the remains of some buildings.

Li Mo condensed a little dust on his fingertips and headed towards Heshen Village.

It is said to be called Heshen Village, but it is actually famous for its lion dancer.

Li Mo heard Li's father mention that he had visited Heshen Village several times.

The temple festival organized by each village is held every five years. The Heshen Village performs lion dances to worship the river god at the temple fair and pray for good weather in the coming year.

Li Mo had indeed been to the temple fair, which seemed to be a very ordinary morning fair.

At that time, Heshen Village was no longer present in the temple fair, and Li's father never said the reason. It was estimated that Heshen Village had encountered a strange beast.

The arrival of the stranger immediately attracted the attention of many villagers. Dozens of people pointed at Li Mo, wondering what they were talking about.

Li Mo noticed a very strange phenomenon. Amidst the clouds and mist, there was a faint fishy smell in the air, like an animal's nest.

Within a few hundred meters around Heshen Village, the proportion of water spiritual energy has reached about 30%. This is definitely not a normal phenomenon.

But there was no trace of the monster.

Li Mo couldn't help but communicate with Ghost Tiger Tattoo, who was only slightly agitated and did not find the specific location of the same kind of monster.

When he walked into Heshen Village, the mist made the inner clothes soaked through, and he breathed the moisture through his mouth and nose, but there was something inexplicable...

Feeling suffocated?

Fortunately, after the heart spiritual root was transformed, the oxygen content in Li Mo's blood was extremely high, and it would not be a big problem even if he did not breathe for several hours.

The villagers gathered around and stared at Li Mo with fearful eyes, and the children couldn't help crying.

Their faces were smeared with rouge and the makeup they wore during a lion awakening.

Li Mo poured the spiritual power of the mist into the animal head tattoo, and he couldn't help but feel wary in his heart. After all, he was deep in a closed mountain, so rouge and gouache should be extremely precious.

He then showed his spiritual card, and the villagers dispersed, their expressions of shock not being fake.

"I am a real person sent by the Rongzhen Yamen. I heard that there is a tiger problem here?"

"Whose family was killed by a tiger?"

Li Mo asked several questions one after another, but the villagers said nothing.

At this time, an old man who was over a hundred years old walked out of the crowd. His body was thin and exposed, but his skin and flesh looked swollen.

"I, the village chief, Wang Baoshan, are waiting for the real person to come."

Li Mo suddenly realized that many of the villagers in front of him were not alive.

Wang Baoshan was paralyzed ten years ago, which led to the end of the lion dance in Heshen Village, and finally faded out of the temple fair because of the strange beast.

Paralyzed by a fatal disease, it was useless even for Han Cai to take action, because the bones, flesh and blood were completely rotten and turned into a substance like dead wood.

Wang Baoshan led Li Mo to the dilapidated ancestral hall and said in an almost pleading tone: "Sir, the demon will appear when the child comes. Please... don't embarrass us."

"The real people who came here in the past few times all left after slaying the demons."

Li Mo asked doubtfully: "There were no accidents during the period?"

Wang Baoshan still murmured nervously: "Real person, the demon will show up at any time, will show up at no time..."

Li Mo didn't reply and walked straight into the ancestral hall.

Wang Baoshan breathed rapidly and looked at the door of the ancestral hall with a relieved expression.

Li Mo stood in the dim ancestral hall and noticed many signs of repairs in the house.

The spiritual tablets placed on the altar were covered with dust, and it was clear from a glance that no ancestors had been worshiped for a long time.

Li Mo couldn't help but look mocking.

"Illusion."

When he found himself in the ancestral hall, and the feeling of suffocation disappeared, he had already guessed the secret, and he felt a little curious in his heart.

"Supporting a tiger? It's interesting."

Li Mo closed his eyes and controlled his brain to abandon the recognition of the outside world. He focused his consciousness on the Book of Creation and used the shallowest touch to sense the strangeness of Heshen Village.

As he waves his hands, his brain's perception of the outside world gradually empties.

Li Mo even temporarily sealed the memory of Heshen Village in his mind, and then the sound of raging water rang in his ears.

He touched the biting river water, the water level was just up to his waist.

Li Mo opened his eyes and saw that the ancestral hall was completely different. Half a meter of the room was submerged in river water, and the gaps between the floor tiles were covered with algae.

He looked outside the ancestral hall and saw that the entire Heshen Village was at the bottom of the river.

All buildings are soaked in water, except for the ancestral hall, which has some gaps inside.

Li Mo waded through the river to the window, which was a hundred meters away from the river. No wonder he felt suffocated after entering the village.

As for the villagers, they are a group of poor people who were killed by the tiger beasts and turned into ghosts like earthbound spirits.

When Li Mo walked into the thick fog covering Heshen Village, his perception was already confused.

Then we were guided step by step into the river.

The unique illusions of strange beasts are more difficult to deal with than Li Mo imagined. Not only vision, but also the other five senses will be affected.

But that's the extent of it. Even mortals can't drown by water alone. After the age of twenty, the internal organs shrink and the demand for air is not high.

Not to mention, the illusion has no binding power at all and can leave Heshen Village at any time.

If it is true as Wang Baoshan said, a fake beast will be sent to him when the time comes, and Li Mo can easily kill it and go back to pay the bills.

Is it possible that the demon can still treat the tiger as a domestic animal?
