In the Blade

Although the ghost soldiers and ghosts disappeared, they still left an important message.

Although it was not clearly stated, the phrase "We will meet again" has already explained everything - these ghost soldiers and ghosts are all warriors. If they are to meet the warriors again, when will it be?

"Of course on the battlefield."

Du Chengfeng touched his chin.

"Are they going to kill me?"

From this point of view, it is understandable why the tiger-skinned man in the mouths of the ghost soldiers and ghosts sent those ghost soldiers and ghosts to Jishui Town - if you want to kill him, you must weaken him first.

That is, before the fight, strip him of the incense and vows attached to him.

After all, the people of Jishui Town are so weak.

"So you can't even do this?"

In the distant Liuhua Mountain, the man in a tiger-skin cloak looked at the illusory soldiers and ghosts under his feet expressionlessly.

"Just killing a group of mortals, you all..."

"It's Taibaixing!"

The leading ghost general gritted his teeth.

"That Taibaixing intercepted us in Jishui Town! He is as strong as a monster! We tried our best but couldn't defeat him..."

"If you didn't do it, you didn't do it. Don't make excuses."

The man in the tiger-skin cloak waved his hand, and these illusory soldiers and ghosts turned into wisps of green smoke and floated towards the big flag behind the man.

The old flag moved without wind, and the sound of it fluttering was like the shrill wailing of evil ghosts.

Perhaps from the beginning, he didn't expect these ghost soldiers and ghosts to achieve anything.

After all, only cattle and sheep need to rely on each other.

But tigers are always lonely.

"It's time to prepare for war."

Saying this, the man in the tiger-skin cloak stomped his feet.

The stomping sound was not loud, even a little vague, and the vibration did not even stir up much dust, but the force continued to pass through the soft soil, through the hard rock, and all the way to the foot of the mountain.

At the foot of Liuhua Mountain, the ground began to tremble.

"Earthquake! Earthquake!"

The people at the foot of the mountain shouted in fear, but the vibration was not affected by their will. The old houses began to collapse, and even the fleeing people could not stand. The ground under their feet even cracked, and the black cracks were like the bloody mouth of a tiger, as if they were going to eat people!

"Don't fall! Don't fall!"

The people who were overturned on the ground rolled and crawled all the way to avoid the fear that was so close. The sudden disaster had completely stopped their brains. They could not imagine that life was already so difficult, and there would be such a natural disaster.

So, why?

Why did it become like this, why did they have to endure this?

They just want to survive, just want to live an ordinary life, why such a small wish has become a luxury?

Who can come and save them?

"Mountain Lord!"

I don't know who spoke first.

"Liuhua Mountain Lord! Liuhua Mountain Lord will come to save us!"

One person started, and the rest of the people also remembered this name - according to the legend, Liuhua Mountain Lord has always been protecting them, protecting the Liuhua Mountain area, saving people from suffering.

Of course, no one has really seen this Liuhua Mountain Lord, but they just need to chant the other party's name, as long as they chant the name of Liuhua Mountain Lord, all sufferings can be overcome.

Just chant the name of Liuhua Mountain Lord...

Just chant the name of Liuhua Mountain Lord, can it really work?

The people actually don't know whether it can work. After all, no matter how you look at it, just chanting a slogan to survive a disaster is too vain, but any rational person will not believe this kind of thing, and the people are naturally not stupid.

But they have no way to deal with the disaster.

Facing this horrific natural disaster, this was their last straw. Even though they were not sure whether the Liuhua Mountain Lord who had saved people from suffering could resist this horrific natural disaster... But what if?

What if he could save lives? What if he could survive?

Anyway, they had no other options, right?

"The compassionate Liuhua Mountain Lord, saving people from suffering and saving people from suffering..."

I don't know who started chanting first, and then more and more people joined in the chanting. The content of the chanting was nothing special, it was just a simple sutra praising Liuhua Mountain Lord. There was no solution to the disaster. They were just repeating Liuhua Mountain Lord's power.

But with such a meaningless repetition, the terrifying tremor from under their feet gradually stopped.

This was not an illusion, but it really stopped.

Not only did the terrifying earthquake stop, but even the terrifying cracks in front of them gradually closed.

Everything seemed to be the same, and everything seemed to be calm again.

In addition to the collapsed houses, it was still proving what had just happened.

"Is this... over?"

The faces of the people still had traces of fear, they couldn't even believe the reality before their eyes.

It's over.

Everything seemed to be over.

"It's over!"

I don't know who shouted first, and then more and more people began to shout.

"It's over! It's all over! The ground stopped shaking! It's all over!"

They shouted at the top of their lungs, as if they could vent the last remaining fear. This was the joy of escaping death and the carnival of surviving the disaster.

Of course, they would not forget the reason why all this ended.

"Great and Merciful Liuhua Mountain Lord!"

"Save the suffering and rescue the distressed Liuhua Mountain Lord!"

"Great and Merciful Liuhua Mountain Lord!"

"Save the suffering and rescue the distressed Liuhua Mountain Lord!"

The people shouted that name, and they all remembered that everything returned to normal after they chanted this name.

So they would repeat this name again and repeat that precious sutra again, even if the content in it had nothing to do with solving the disaster.

But they still wanted to praise the merits of Liuhua Mountain Lord.

After all, this was the simplest and most unsophisticated gratitude.

To express their gratitude, they dug out the incense burner from the ruins and lit the cheap incense sticks. The smell of the incense mixed with the pure heart and strength, drifting along the wind all the way to Liuhua Mountain.

Wrapped around the man in the tiger skin.

"More pure..."

The man in the tiger skin cloak raised his hand and held the power with the smell of incense in his hand.

"I received your power!"

What was held in his hand was just the illusory incense.

But the man in the tiger skin cloak seemed to have power and strength.

"Okay, it's almost done."

After putting away the incense and wish power, the man in the tiger skin cloak waved his hand behind him.

And those illusory ghost soldiers and ghosts were scattered on the ground again.

Yes, scattered, just because these ghost soldiers and ghosts could not even maintain their normal bodies - obviously, they had just experienced a cruel torture, which made their bodies more illusory.

But they could not die.

Just because the power with the smell of incense flowed out from that big hand and poured into their bodies.

That power was so pure and clear that it moistened their limbs and bones in an instant. They could even feel that they were stronger than before!

But no matter how strong they were, what was the use?

They still couldn't escape the clutches of this mountain king, they couldn't even ask for death, and they couldn't even resist, just because this mountain king was far more ferocious than them.

You know, although they were sealed in the battle flag and tortured just now, they also saw the actions of the mountain king.

Just stomping his feet caused an earthquake, which meant that the mountain king was obviously stronger than before.

This kind of natural disaster-like power... is simply not comparable to any evil spirit.

Although in the old Chu, the evil spirit was once described as a natural disaster-like power, but that was only a way of describing it after all, just to describe that the number of people killed was enough and it was tragic enough-this also means that compared with the real natural disaster, the so-called evil spirit disaster is always less destructive.

But now, what appeared in front of them was a real natural disaster.

If they had encountered such an opponent on the battlefield, how would they have dealt with it?

It was unimaginable, and even more unbelievable, that such power could actually exist in a person?

Or, was the thing in front of them really still a human?

Was this figure in tiger skin a demon? A devil? Or, as those mortals said, was it the immortal god who controlled Liuhua Mountain?

I don't know, I don't know at all.

They only knew that this terrifying monster was invincible!

"Go."

The man in the tiger skin cloak waved to the leading ghost general.

"Find the so-called Taibai Star and bring a message to him."

"No, Shanjun..."

Hearing this, the leading ghost general was already shaking like a sieve.

He thought that since he was caught far away, the Shanjun should have said something to him, what he did, but it was not so clear, but now it seems...

"What?"

Facing the trembling ghost general, the man in the tiger skin cloak just narrowed his eyes.

"I just asked you to tell your descendants something, don't you want to?"

"...I do."

The ghost general bowed his head deeply.

As expected, this mountain king knew everything.

No wonder they were thrown into the general's flag and tortured as soon as they came back. He originally thought it was just because of incompetence, but now it seems that this mountain king clearly knows everything that happened in the distance.

"What are you doing?"

The voice from above sounded.

"Are you going or not?"

"...Go."

The ghost general gritted his teeth, then turned into a wisp of green smoke and floated away.

When he came back, he was a large group of people, but when he flew out again, the ghost general became a lonely man - but at this moment, the ghost general did not dare to cover up anything, anyway, everything had been exposed.

"So... run away!"

In the distant Datang Mountain, the ghost general who had returned directly knelt on one knee in front of the silver-white figure.

"Run! Get out of here! The tiger wants to kill you! Don't..."

"Calm down, calm down."

Seeing the ghost general who disappeared return to him, Du Chengfeng couldn't help scratching his head.

"Calm down first, finish what you're saying... What happened?"

"Tiger, tiger... Oh no, that tiger-skinned man, that tiger-skinned man!"

The panicked ghost will try hard to organize his words.

"That tiger-skinned man, he asked me to bring you a message..."

"Oh? Have a message?"

Du Chengfeng was immediately happy.

"What's the message?"

"Take it, take it..."

The ghost general opened his mouth, but was stunned for a moment.

He seemed to be in such a hurry when he flew out just now that he didn't even hear what the Liuhua Mountain Lord was saying.

"So what exactly do you bring?"

Du Chengfeng became more and more curious.

"Just tell me, it's okay, I just want to know."

"I...didn't hear clearly."

The ghost general lowered his head after all.

"But the tiger wants to kill you, he wants you to die, he wants, he wants... Anyway, you must leave here! The bloodline of the Chu people cannot be cut off like this!"

"What do you mean by that! Are you implying that I am your grandson?"

Du Chengfeng immediately became anxious.

"Didn't I say it? I'm not from Chu!"

"You...it doesn't matter what you are! Anyway, leave quickly!"

The ghost general pushed Du Chengfeng.

"Hurry up..."

Pushed down, the silver figure didn't move at all.

Du Chengfeng also frowned.

"Why should I leave? He should obviously be the one running away."

"you……"

The ghost general was stunned upon hearing this.

What do you mean he ran away? Does it mean that the one who should run away is the tiger-skinned man, the tiger who doesn’t know whether he is a demon or a monster, like a natural disaster?

How is that possible? Where did this Tin Man get his confidence? Is he crazy? Where did you get the courage?

Even if the other party really has the blood of the Chu people, such a statement is really too arrogant!

"Are you crazy? You can't handle that at all! He will make the earth crack when he stamps his feet. His power is the same as that of the legendary gods and Buddhas. You..."

"Me? What's wrong with me?"

Du Chengfeng was a little confused.

"It was him who was afraid first, not me. What happened to me?"

"……Fear?"

The ghost general was stunned.

"You mean, the tiger is scared?"

How is that possible? Where did this nonsense come from? How could you be afraid of that arrogant monster, that monster that was like a natural disaster? How could it be possible to be afraid?

"Maybe you didn't see it, or even he himself...but his behavior has betrayed his consciousness."

Du Chengfeng shook his head.

"If he is really as strong as you say, then he should rush over and kill me instead of sending you over to play some off-the-beaten-path tricks. If you don't succeed, then let you come over and declare a challenge... If you want to fight for the position Fight? Take advantage of the geographical advantage? "

At this point, Du Chengfeng sighed.

"Maybe it seems to you that he is indeed very well prepared, but the more thorough the preparation, the more it means that he is not confident in taking me down completely, so he needs to prepare, he needs to weaken me, obviously he has not seen me yet... so This is not so much prepared for me, but rather that he needs to convince himself, convince himself, and tell himself that he will definitely win this battle. "

Is the strength you need to convince yourself really strong?

Du Chengfeng didn't know.

Anyway, ever since he left Jibei and truly gained control of his power, he rarely did similar things.

"It can only be said that it is a pity that he may have been well prepared, but from the moment he had this idea, it was impossible for him to win."

"So I really don't need to run, he should be the one who should run."
