Chapter 125 Monster Night Attack
Holding the amulet in hand, Li Yan looked at it carefully.
He knew that this thing was made of Chicken Claws, with the fascia removed and only the bones left, so it could be played with in the hand.
Demon Hunter gave it, which is naturally more extraordinary.
The chicken bone in the hand is thicker than a human thumb, with a yellowish glaze color on the surface, inscribed Exorcism Talisman, and filled with cinnabar.
Li Yan can smell it, it emits hot incense.
It's quite heavy to hold, and when you tap it lightly, there's a sound of gold and iron.
Ordinary chickens are not this big.
Could it be that something from Daoism has been left behind?
Li Yan rubbed it, it just felt interesting.
Before I knew it, it was night again.
This time, it's Wang Dao Xuan's turn to build the building.
He is familiar with the roads, so there is no need for anyone to worry.
After Li Yan blocked the orifice with stones, he and Sha LiFei and others lit a bonfire and kept vigil outside.
This night, the mountain wind blew particularly fiercely.
As Zi Hour approaches, everyone is already feeling sleepy.
Suddenly, Li Yan's eyes widened.
I saw the ground behind Sha LiFei. The sand and stones were slowly sinking, and a pair of tentacles as thick as little fingers came out quietly...
"Be careful!"
Li Yan shouted loudly and jumped out.
He used the Darting Step movement technique, and Hidden Strength exploded from his left leg. When he opened his mouth, his body had already shot out like a sharp arrow, and at the same time he pulled out Guan Shan Saber with a loud cry.
Clang!
As soon as the sword was unsheathed, someone was already approaching.
Sha LiFei was also alert and sensed that something was wrong. He did not look back at all, but jumped forward, rolling like a lazy donkey. When he got up, he had already pulled out the knife.
However, that thing is faster.
The tentacles flickered and suddenly retracted into the ground.
Poof!
The knife Li Yan follows closely, inserting it downwards, and at the same time actuating Three Talents Demon Suppressing Coin.
His expression changed, and he felt that the tip of the knife seemed to have touched a smooth iron object, and the blade was deflected, unable to penetrate at all.
Wow!
Immediately afterwards, dust flew everywhere behind him, and a centipede as thick as an arm with claws and fangs sprang out, opening its huge fangs and attacking him directly.
At such a close distance, even if the smell on the monster's body has subsided, Li Yan has already sensed the opponent's movements based on the changes in the smell of earth.
He dodged and backed away, holding Guanshan Knife across his chest. At the same time, he condensed his left palm, preparing to use Soul Hooking Chain.
This is his strongest killing move currently.
The opponent's body is as strong as gold and iron, but no matter what kind of monster it is, as long as it has a soul, Soul Hooking Chain can work.
But the sword light beside him was faster.
But it was the little Daoist priest Dian Shu who took action.
His reaction was not as quick as Li Yan's two, but he also knew what happened. He took out a talisman from his arms, made a hand and lit it, and the long sword pierced the talisman and roared out.
Poof!
I don't know what talisman Dian Shu used.
Li Yan could smell it. As the talisman burned, a stream of incense Gang Qi attached to the long sword and penetrated into the centipede's body without any hindrance.
He was a little speechless. The little Daoist priest was still inexperienced.
Why stab in this situation? Cut it!
Sure enough, the sword thrust was not fatal, but the centipede was in pain, twisted wildly, and sprayed venom from its mouth.
"Be careful!"
Li Yan has quick hands and eyes, grabbing the little Daoist priest and retreating.
Tsk!
The venom was sprinkled on the ground and bursts of white smoke were emitted.
Li Yan can smell it. The white smoke carries a cold corpse smell, which makes people dizzy even before they get close. It is obviously not an ordinary venom.
Earth Centipede avoided the two men and took the opportunity to get into the ground.
Phew!
At this moment, a short spear flew over.
This short spear was made of pure iron, with a row of wolf barbs on the front edge, a burning talisman hanging in the center, and an iron rope connecting it at the end.
There was only a puff sound, and the short spear penetrated directly into the centipede without any hindrance.
Wow!
The chain was tightened, and Earth Centipede, which had been drilled into the ground, was dragged out again and rolled backwards.
Even though it was impaled and dragged along, the thick centipede still twisted wildly like a wild beast, chirping and spitting venom.
The person who did it was none other than Demon Hunter Red Yaksha.
She was not far away from the crowd. She rushed over after hearing the sound and took action halfway.
She has special skills in dealing with these things, and even the weapons in her hands are specially made for this purpose.
Seeing the centipede rolling and struggling, Red Yaksha quickly took off a skin bag from his waist and threw it out. At the same time, he waved his long sword and gave it a sudden lift.
This person is also a Martial Arts expert and has entered Peak of Hidden Strength.
The skin in the air was split open directly.
The skin bag was full of red chicken blood, which splashed onto the centipede with a splash, as if corroded by acid, and bursts of white smoke immediately appeared.
And the centipede seemed to have swallowed Bewitching Drug, struggling slower and slower, and no longer spraying venom from its mouth.
Wow!
Red Yaksha shook again, with strong force, the centipede was immediately dragged forward.
And this female Demon Hunter just raised her sword sideways, and the centipede's head immediately fell to the ground, and her body twisted and struggled, and soon there was no movement.
Red Yaksha ignored everyone, shook his sword, and split the centipede's head in half. When he saw that there was nothing inside, his eyes were filled with disappointment.
Sha LiFei was so frightened that he refused to stop. Remembering what the little Daoist priest Dian Shu said before, he couldn't help but ask, "Xia Xia, are you looking for Centipede Pearl? Isn't it only found in giant centipedes?"
Red Yaksha Although he was disappointed, he was obviously in a good mood after completing the task. He shook his head and replied, "Small ones sometimes appear. Although they are only as big as soybeans, they are miraculous in treating all kinds of snake venom."
Everyone also came closer to watch.
I was too nervous just now and couldn't see clearly in the chaos, but now with the light of the fire, I can see clearly.
This Earth Centipede is as thick as the mouth of a bowl. If the body is straightened, it is estimated to be taller than an ordinary woman. The legs are densely covered with insects, and they shine coldly under the firelight.
Different from ordinary centipedes, this one is not only big, but also has a strange color, with dark red limbs and an earthy gray body.
If mixed in the soil, sometimes it is really difficult to detect.
"Be good..."
Sha LiFei poked it with a knife and said in surprise, "What does this thing eat? No wonder the little Daoist said it can eat python brains."
Red Yaksha said in a deep voice, "If this thing is born in the place where the innate evil spirits gather, and then eats some Heavenly Spiritual Treasure, it will give birth to strange phenomena."
As he spoke, he looked around strangely, "Even monsters have their own temperaments and preferences. The high mountains and cold temperatures here are completely unsuitable for insects to breed. Why do they come here?"
The little Daoist priest Dian Shu also breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The Qinling Mountains have dragon veins converging, and there are so many weird things. Sometimes I can't figure it out."
"Anyway, this monster has been eliminated. Layperson Luo don't stay alone anymore. Come here to warm up by the fire. We will go down the mountain together tomorrow morning."
Red Yaksha hesitated slightly, nodded and said, "That's fine."
Now that the monster is dead, everyone sits down again and feels much more relaxed.
Sha LiFei rolled his eyes, poured tea and water for Red Yaksha diligently, and asked some things about Demon Hunter.
Red Yaksha is not good at talking to others, but there was nothing he could do when he met such a skinny person, so he told some allusions.
"Our lineage, I heard from Martial Grandfather, originated from the late Tang Dynasty. At that time, the world was in chaos and evil spirits were everywhere. Tai Xuan Orthodox Sect had high-level skills and techniques. Together with the Meishan Dharma Sect, several Martial Arts masters jointly trained Demon Hunter..."
"Meishan Dharma Sect has many hunter followers, and they are also good at training Rampaging Soldiers. We mainly focus on catching monsters and killing zombies. We are good at killing and have no Xuanmen ritual..."
The little Daoist priest Dian Shu said, "Layperson Luo is joking. You travel around the world, catching monsters and suppressing tyrants. You have saved many people. In terms of merit, you are much better than us who can only chant sutras..."
The conversation started and everyone gradually became familiar with each other.
Only then did Li Yan know that this Demon Hunter Red Yaksha's real surname is Luo, his name is Yi Hong, and he is a person from Chang'an.
Her name is very gentle, but for what she does, even Li Yan must give her a thumbs up and praise her for being a good man!
The other party has no children, but he has adopted several orphans.
These are all orphans caused by evil zombies.
They are already quite young and have not read many books. Even if they have some awakening Spiritual Root, they are not the target of recruitment by the orthodox religion and the Dharma lineage.
Therefore, Luo Yihong accepted these people as disciples, which not only allowed Demon Hunter's methods to be passed on, but also allowed these children to have a serious way of making a living in the future.
Of course, it costs a lot to feed a large number of disciples.
Before her disciples grew up, she could only run around to support a large family...
As we chatted, something gradually started to feel wrong.
Everyone's mood was getting lower and lower, and the feeling of fatigue kept rising. Their upper and lower eyelids were fighting crazily.
"No, I've been hit!"
Luo Yihong shouted and fell to the ground and fainted.
Li Yan was also shocked, but just as he was about to get up, thick fog rose in front of his eyes and the surrounding scene became dim.
Another Yin Division mission.
Damn it, it doesn't matter when!
Li Yan cursed in his heart, but didn't think much about it and ran madly forward.
He is already very familiar with this thing.
There is no way to recover with magic. The only way is to quickly check the Yin Division mission and choose to refuse to leave.
Sure enough, the well appeared again ahead.
Li Yan Without saying a word, he put his hands on it, and the well water changed accordingly, with vortexes appearing, thick fog billowing, and various lights and shadows appearing.
It's still the same cave.
Still the Old Taoist in the pool...
Or is this the mission?
Li Yan was about to refuse, but suddenly his eyes widened.
I saw two centipedes suddenly crawling out from under the black jar containing Old Taoist, sticking their heads into the holes at the bottom of the jar, and spurting out streams of blood.
As soon as the blood came into contact with Old Taoist's body, it quickly seeped into it.
At the same time, the deathly gray color on Old Taoist's face became heavier and heavier.
It turns out that this guy is causing trouble!
Li Yan gritted his teeth and chose to accept it directly.
He knows that he may have no choice at this moment!
After accepting the mission, the surrounding fog instantly dissipated, and Li Yan also woke up.
As soon as I opened my eyes, I realized something was wrong.
A huge Earth Centipede had emerged from the soil nearby, opened its fangs, and bit into his neck.
"Seeking death!"
Li Yan's eyes revealed murderous intent, and his left hand suddenly stretched out, and suddenly pinched the centipede's head.
Wow!
The sound of chains sounded in his ears.
Soul Hooking Chain stretched out and penetrated directly into the centipede's body. As Li Yan dragged it backwards, it pulled out a mass of cold and bloody aura.
Earth Centipede No matter how powerful he is, he is still a living creature after all.
Its Divine Soul strength is not even as good as that of a child, but it has a little more spirituality and is quickly broken into pieces by Soul Hooking Chain.
Earth Centipede Divine Soul was separated from the body, and his torso was motionless and limp.
Li Yan Looking around again, I saw everyone fainted on the ground, their eyes closed tightly, and a centipede came out from each side and bit their necks.
Under the bonfire, a centipede has also emerged, enduring the fear of flames and spraying light poisonous smoke into the flames.
Cunning beast!
Li Yan jumped out, Hidden Strength erupted, and had three legs in a row.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
He was so fast that he kicked centipedes away from everyone.
Then, take out Divine Tiger Token and cast Thousand Gold Body Protection Incantation, "Nogao, with three stars on the left and three prisons on the right, the world is turned upside down, all nine paths are blocked, and you lose your heart..."
"Roar!"
When the spell was completed, there seemed to be a Tiger's Roar sound coming from my ears.
The centipedes were frightened and burrowed into the ground again.
Li Yan knows that this spell can only scare them away temporarily.
He quickly squatted down, pinched and slapped people, waking them up one by one.
The poison that the centipede sprayed into the flames was colorless and odorless. Although everyone was infected without realizing it, it was not very toxic.
Once awake, you can quickly regain consciousness.
"Why so many!"
Seeing the holes on the ground, the little Daoist priest Dian Shu's expression changed drastically, and he murmured, "Impossible, this is a demon nest. How could we not find it when our soldiers and horses searched the mountain?"
"Of course someone tampered with it!"
Li Yan's face turned gloomy and he quickly ran to the entrance of the cave where Wang Dao Xuan was.
The masonry is only a temporary pile and cannot be absolutely tight.
Through the gap, you can see Wang Dao Xuan sitting cross-legged, with Soul Guiding Lamp burning anemones around him, and his face is very calm.
Li Yan breathed a sigh of relief and said in a deep voice:
"Uncle Sha, take me Cloud Thunder Divine Drum!"
