Love Warriors Cong Liangji

The ghost was full of confidence: "That guy must not be far away, and he smells of my 'wine lees' on him, no matter where he goes, I can find it."

"You only have one good nose left, hum!"

The two ghosts accused and taunted each other, and ran out of the room in a hurry to look for "ingredients". The room returned to a dead silence, leaving only a disgusting smell and a mess... until 10 minutes After that, an inaudible, breath-free sound came from under the floor.

Chapter 7: Hunting in the dark

In traditional Japanese wooden houses, there is actually a small gap between the floor and the ground.

And the legendary "ninjas" often choose to drill into this narrow space to eavesdrop or assassinate when performing tasks. It is said that some ninjas can even hide under the floor for several days in a row, waiting for the target without making any movement arrival.

This time, Jiang Liu learned from the ninja and became "Voldemort" once. Although he was not very professional, it was enough.

Didn't run away directly?And rightfully so!

Use this tattered body to escape the pursuit of evil spirits in the strange night?

What's the difference between that and turning around and giving your undefended back to the beast when you encounter it? !

Jiang Liu reckoned that if he really ran away, he would definitely be overtaken within a kilometer, even if the evil spirit came back later, because he really couldn't run fast like this.

It's a bit ridiculous to say that in the last world, he was the one who dared to talk and laugh with the World Extinguishing Demon God, but in this life he was forced into such an embarrassing situation by two evil spirits at the level of miscellaneous fish.

But there is no way, who made his body still weak, even in the last world, he relied on the spiritual protection of the three machine gods to face the Great Demon God.

To be honest, after clearing a world, Jiang Liu didn't grow without growth. Even leaving aside those skills, he had already grown his mental power to an extremely tenacious level in the process of contacting the consciousness of the Great Demon God for a long time.

This is why in the final battle, he can harass the Great Demon God and give support to the three Mech Gods.

But this can't change the fact that he is seriously injured!

Mental power is not a superpower, Jiang Liu's injuries will not heal automatically, and he can't use things like telekinetic power—he hasn't had time to learn the technique of converting mental power into physical attacks.

At present, his only means of attack is the "shock bomb" on the mental level, that is, a mental shock with very rough skills, but this is a heavy burden on the brain. In terms of physical condition...or if you can use it, don't use it.

Hiding under floors seems to be somewhat risky, since ghosts, like beasts, are extremely sensitive to the scent of their prey (humans).

But Jiang Liu created a perfect "crime scene", covering up his smell with the weird human flesh distiller's grains.

Not to mention evil spirits, even if Tanjirou, the protagonist of Demon Slayer, came, he would probably be suffocated to death by the stench, and it was impossible to tell if anyone was hiding underneath.

Furthermore, this room has been imprisoned across the river, isn't it normal to smell a little "human"?

"Srustling..."

About 10 minutes after the two evil spirits left, Jiang Liu slowly moved his body and crawled out from the narrow space under the floor. As a matter of course, he was covered in dirt, but when he saw the bright moonlight and stars outside, he was still shocked. Involuntarily heaved a sigh of relief.

"In this way, I have about two hours... No, the movements of the evil spirits are much faster than normal people, and it is estimated that it will only be an hour.

Come on, my cute little mice, the faster you run, the more time you will buy me. "

What the two ghosts were chasing was not Jiang Liu who was here, but rats that were covered in "wine grains" and fled in all directions under the hint of Jiang Liu's spirit.

Spiritual suggestion - this is not an inherent skill, but a skill developed by Jiang Liu himself.

In the last world, the Great Demon God had invaded his dreams many times... The so-called long illness becomes a good doctor, he naturally learned some methods similar to hypnosis and bewitchment.

It's just that he is still far behind, and he can't be compared with the great demon gods, ancient gods, and old rulers at all. Let alone manipulating people's hearts, it is difficult for him to force hints on primates like apes. .

Therefore, his ability is actually closer to "communication".

Low-level bugs don't have much intelligence at all, and high-level primates are already considered very intelligent. Things like mice, cats and dogs are just within Jiang Liu's control range.

It might be hard to order them to "die," but it's easy to just make them panic and run away.

Jiang Liu made about ten mice roll in the wine lees, and then fled into the dark forest.

With their speed and stealth, it's easy to hide for a while...but it's just a delay.

After the evil spirits caught two or three mice, no matter how stupid they were, they should realize that something was wrong, and they would probably come back by then.

What Jiang Liu had to do was to escape as far as possible during this period of time.

The role of those rats is not only to attract the attention of the evil spirits, they also spread the smell everywhere while running around, which can effectively interfere with the evil spirits' search for the river.

"Two hours...It's almost dawn, just drag it for two hours."

Jiang Liu let out a long breath and stood up with difficulty, but his movements were obviously much more flexible than before.

During the period of lying on the floor, his physical strength has recovered a lot. Although the injury has not improved much, the pain has eased a lot, and at least he has recovered a certain amount of mobility.

It can be seen from this that his physique is actually quite different from that of ordinary people—divinity is not useless.

Even if it is specially used to control the divinity of the machine god, it still has the most basic physical enhancement effect!

It is too short for now, as time goes by, the improvement of the divinity to the physique will become more and more obvious.

"Where are you going?"

Jiang Liu stood under the moonlight and looked around calmly.

This is a small ruined mountain village. It seems that there is no human habitation, and there is no sound of dogs barking or other livestock. Jiang Liu's house is located in the northwest corner of the mountain village, and it is also next to the mountain road that communicates with the outside world.

In this way, the trap of the evil spirits is obvious.

It's nothing more than an anglerfish, in the darkness, only this house has light, which naturally attracts lost pedestrians.

But since there are lost people, it means——

"Are there any human settlements near here?" Jiang Liu was thoughtful.

Thinking about it is also true, although most of the evil spirits in this world stay away from the city (too conspicuous and easy to expose), but after all, they feed on humans, so they will not really stay away from the world, and they probably seem to be active near rural towns.

These two ghosts seemed to have been hunted down by the ghost killing team before, so they fled to a more remote mountain, but logically they should also be next to some villages.

As for which direction - just look at the only main road in this village.

As long as you walk along this road across the village, you can always get out of the mountains or find other villages.

Then, Jiang Liu's escape route was determined: he turned around and walked into the desolate mountain village without hesitation, found a dilapidated house and walked in.

escape?Do you compete with evil spirits?

Walking along the mountain path will definitely be noticed, but running blindly in the mountains, with Jiang Liu's current body, he may play himself to death.

So what he has to do now is still hide and seek with the evil spirits.

Generally speaking, when the two evil spirits caught the mouse and realized that they had been tricked, they would split up to find Jiang Liu angrily.They immediately thought of the first room, and then of course they were worried that Jiang Liu would go to the human gathering place and spread their news.

In other words, the evil spirit's room and mountain path were the first targets of their search, and in this village... Generally, no one would hide in this obvious trap after encountering the evil spirit.

Because it will be found here sooner or later, normal people will not sit and hide here—the evil spirits will think so too.

However, Jiang Liu is not an ordinary person, he knows the weakness of evil spirits: sunlight.

As long as he can drag it until the sun comes out, it is his victory, so hiding is definitely not waiting for death!

Ordinary people don't know this information, so they will make completely opposite choices.If the evil spirits regard Jiang Liu as an ordinary person, they will naturally think the same way, and this is Jiang Liu's only intelligence advantage.

In general, this strategy has no technical content, it is the so-called "black under the light".

After experiencing the adventure of a world, although he is still flesh and blood on the physical level, Jiang Liu's mentality has long been that of a seasoned fighter.

He also has the experience of playing hide-and-seek with the enemy like this. He will never make unnecessary movements and noises when he hides wholeheartedly. The only possible opening is the smell-this is thanks to the evil ghost.

And this village has long been crawled by those "delicious" mice, and Jiang Liu will never attract attention if he hides in a certain house.

Even if those two guys quickly realized something was wrong and rushed back, and gave up the peripheral search like a prophet, and only searched for this village... it can always be delayed for a while!

Time is on Jiangliu's side!

But if the worst happens and Jiang Liu is found by the evil spirits before dawn...then it's just a fight.

Although Jiang Liu tried his best to avoid confronting the enemy head-on in this situation, but if that kind of development really happened-he would definitely not back down.

"Huh? Has this room... been occupied before?"

Jiang Liu originally thought that the village was made by evil spirits to act as a cover, but he didn't expect to find traces of human life, but it looked very old.

"Is the resident here a carpenter?"

He found some tools piled in the corner, such as axes, ink fountains, chisels, long strings, etc., but without exception, they were all covered with a thick layer of dust.

As for where their original owners are now... probably become "wine grains".

"Tsk!"

Thinking of this, Jiang Liu felt impatient. If his body was in good condition, even if his physical fitness was no different from that of ordinary people, he would find a way to kill these two evil spirits with traps or something.

"The axes are all rusted..."

Jiang Liu squatted down to examine these things carefully, frowning slightly.

"Forget it, something is better than nothing."

Chapter 8: Look at my eyes!

"Hey hey hey hey hey hey~ Hahahahahahahahahaha!!! That idiot! Let him go to the mountains to find that human being for me to enjoy!"

The evil ghost in a brown short jacket laughed wildly and shuttled through the woods, approaching the village.

His companion—that is, the guy with a special taste, the sensitivity of his nose is considered outstanding among evil spirits, so even with just a faint smell, he still successfully found the target in the dark mountains.

However, after catching several mice one after another with their companions, they soon realized that they had been cheated, so they split up, one went to follow the river along the mountain road, and the other returned to the village.

But his companion probably didn't know that the reason why he chose to go back to the village was not a random decision but a well-thought-out decision.

"The good human flesh is turned into a pile of shit, that idiot! It's a waste to give it to him, or give it all to me to make me stronger!"

Hurriedly rushing back to the original room, the evil spirit pierced the tatami floor with its sharp nails, and lifted half of the floor with a vigorous pull.

"Haha, weak human beings, let me come—huh?"

Looking at the empty space, the evil ghost froze for a moment: "Have you escaped... But, you can't escape from my palm."

The evil spirit closed its eyes and began to concentrate, even reducing its breathing to the minimum, and then slowly stuck out its tongue.

It is worth mentioning that his tongue is not ordinary, but forked like a poisonous snake or lizard.

At the same time, the shape of his nose also began to change. The wings of the nose gradually turned up, and the surface area of ​​the entire nose seemed to expand by half. After standing there for a few minutes, the corners of the evil ghost's mouth showed a ferocious arc again, and his eyes slowly opened. open.

"Hey, I found it."

Probably even Jiang Liu is limited to his own cognition, so he didn't expect this: this evil ghost has detection ability beyond the five senses!
