Chapter 16 Are you color blind?
There was a commotion in the inn; a man in gray and a burly bearded man were fighting.
The man in gray kept saying that his relatives saw the evil fire with their own eyes at night and it was blue-black in color.
The bearded man said that he saw a scarlet-red evil fire through the crack in the door last night.
Both of them said that the other was farting and the argument became intense.
It is obvious that these two brothers are not good people. After all, they are both doing business in this border city, and honest people can't do this job.
Both sides have tempers and are ready to fight if they disagree.
Seeing that there was a fight in the store, the innkeeper hurried out to mediate.
"You two, please stop arguing. If you want to quarrel or fight, you can do whatever you want after leaving the inn tomorrow. This has nothing to do with our inn, but you two should calm down first.
It's already night, if you two continue to make such a big noise and attract the evil fire, no one will be able to escape easily."
The innkeeper reminded them that it was already dark outside.
God knows when a ball of evil fire will suddenly appear.
Although they are in the store now, the evil fire has been extremely rampant recently. Before, it only attacked pedestrians walking on the road, and randomly knocked down a lucky passerby who did not return home late at night.
But recently, there have been reports of evil fire starting to attack houses, and it just burned down an inn two days ago.
The boss said that if they made a big noise and attracted the evil fire, everyone would be in trouble.
At the same time, the boss walked up to the man in gray and said to him, "Brother, that's enough. You can't beat him."
The man in gray was thin, while the bearded man who was arguing with him was sturdy and strong, and it was obvious that he was a thug in the caravan.
There is such a big gap between the two of them. The boss reminded the man in gray that if a fight really breaks out, he can kill him with one punch, so stop pretending and sit down quickly.
The man in gray felt dissatisfied when he heard this, and he clenched his fists as he looked at the burly man in front of him. They had just been arguing fiercely, and he was so angry that he ignored the size of his opponent for a moment.
At this moment, he was stopped by the innkeeper and calmed down before looking at his opponent.
I found that the opponent was big and strong, and his arms were thicker than my thighs, so I really couldn't beat him.
Then the man in gray pounded his clenched fist on the table.
Oh shit!
Tell my mother I'm a coward! The man in gray sat down angrily.
The two of them then gave up.
…
This was just a small farce in the inn, but Lu Yuan learned another piece of information from the conversation between the two people.
The demon fires seem to be different.
The soldiers guarding the city told him that the evil fire causing chaos in the city was red in color, and most people who happened to see it were also mostly red evil fires.
But according to what the gray-clothed man said, his relative seemed to have seen another kind of evil fire.
Dark blue demonic fire? Just now, these two guys were arguing, neither of them convinced the other, as if demonic fire only had one color.
But in fact, Lu Yuan thought that there might be two kinds of demon fire in this city. He just didn't know which one was more powerful, the red demon fire or the blue-black demon fire.
Lu Yuan finished his tea and went upstairs.
After entering the room, Lu Yuan asked Xiao Huang who had been lying on the window.
"Xiao Huang, is there any movement?"
He just went downstairs to drink tea and listen to the conversations of the guests staying in the hotel to collect more information, and asked Xiao Huang to stay in the guest room to observe the movements outside.
Xiao Huang shook his head. He had just been looking out the window without making any movement.
It seems that the evil fire has not appeared yet.
Lu Yuan nodded, walked to the window and looked out.
The next second, Lu Yuan was stunned.
Because when he looked outside, he saw a ball of red fire not far away, illuminating half of the street and moving along the street.
However, the little yellow cat next to him looked at the red flames as if he didn't see them and didn't react at all.
Lu Yuan: “???”
He pointed in the direction of the red light and said, "Ah Huang, what are you looking at? Isn't that a demonic fire?"
Xiao Huang looked at him with wide eyes, then tilted his head to look at Lu Yuan with a confused look on his face.
Huh? Where is that?
Why can't I see it? Lu Yuan's head was numb.
It suddenly occurred to him that there was a difference between a dog's vision and a human's.
Alison Mayend, a professor at Colorado State University, a doctor of veterinary medicine, and a veterinarian, has done research and found that humans have three types of cones, so they can see different shades of red, blue-purple and green.
Dogs only have two types of cones, which can distinguish blue-violet and yellow, which means that dogs' vision is similar to that of people who are red-green color blind.
So dogs can't see red or green.
From a dog's perspective, all colors between red and green appear yellow, with the difference in yellow only being in brightness. In general, dogs can see yellow, blue, gray, white, and black.
Lu Yuan: No wonder this thing has been watching here for so long and kept saying there is no movement. It turns out it can't see the red light released by the demon fire. It's simply blind!
Lu Yuan was speechless.
Xiao Huang also said: I am red and green color blind, and I don’t know! How can I know that I am color blind if you don’t tell me?
And no one told me that dogs also have to distinguish between red and green! Lu Yuan didn't have time to talk to it about color blindness. He came out this time to investigate the demon fire incident in the ancient Yan country.
Now that the evil fire has appeared, Lu Yuan certainly cannot miss the opportunity. He locked onto the direction of the evil fire, and then he flipped out of the window of the inn and chased after it on a cloud.
Xiao Huang followed closely behind and soon caught up with the demon fire.
A man and a dog were in the air, looking down at the evil fire that was roaming in the streets and alleys of the city.
As the folk rumors said, it was huge in size and looked like a huge ball of fire, red in color, suspended in mid-air.
In the eyes of ordinary people, this is just a large ball of fire, but from the perspective of Lu Yuan, the immortal cultivator, this demon fire has a real body, but the real body is extremely illusory and cannot be seen by mortals.
The demon fire has a human form, short arms and legs, but a very long neck. It is a strange demon.
The ball of fire visible to the naked eye is the huge head on its extremely long neck.
This head looks like a big ball of fire, but actually the flame inside is a huge flame lantern.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Lantern ghost? Lu Yuan had heard of this kind of ghost. It was introduced in the demon book compiled by the ancestors of Daluo Sect.
Lantern ghost, an unpopular ghost.
Most of them are formed by the spiritual fire generated by the corpses in the graves of mass graves, which attach to the lanterns and mutate.
But most of them are kind-hearted and will light the way for people visiting graves at mass graves.
Only a small number of evil spirits attached to lanterns will mutate into lantern evil ghosts, who like to pounce on people, release flames to kill humans, and burn living people to absorb resentment to practice.
It seems that these lantern evil spirits are the ones causing trouble in Liuhuo City.
But Lu Yuan still hasn’t figured out where so many lantern evil spirits came from?
But no matter where he came from, Lu Yuan was ready to take action and take this guy down first.
To investigate the truth behind this, you have to first collect a lantern ghost and investigate it slowly.
Lu Yuan would not do such rough work.
Firstly, he came with his apprentice. With his apprentice around, why should he, as the master, take action?
Secondly, the demon fire is dangerous. I heard that the flame is extremely powerful and can instantly refine people if it hits them. Xiao Huang has a higher level of cultivation, so he lets his disciple go first.
Lu Yuan then pointed.
"Ah Huang, come on!"
“Woof!!”
Xiao Huang next to him was not afraid at all. He faced the lantern evil ghost below and pounced directly from beside Lu Yuan.
Black and red spiritual energy gathered in the palm of his hand.
Sun-Destroying Palm! A palm strike that comes from the sky.
Xiao Huang pounced directly on the head of the lantern evil ghost.
However, the next second, Xiao Huang himself did not expect that his body actually penetrated the lantern ghost and missed.
Fortunately, it practiced the Great Heavenly Immortal Technique, and its body was strong and indestructible, so it passed through the flames without being burned.
The lantern evil ghost looked at Xiao Huang who suddenly attacked it, and seemed to be angered. It had no target originally, but now it has found one.
Several balls of flame split out from the lantern head of the lantern evil ghost and smashed towards Xiao Huang.
These flames hit Xiao Huang with great power.
Xiao Huang was agile and quickly dodged the attack, then rushed forward with another claw.
The dog's paws were filled with red spiritual energy, and it went straight to grab the opponent's big lantern head! But it missed again.
This lantern ghost seems to have no entity and cannot be hit by physical damage.
Lu Yuan was also surprised. No entity? The lantern ghost looked at the little yellow dog and failed to pounce on it twice. It was completely helpless. Flames rose above the lantern ghost's head, and its neck swayed back and forth like a giraffe, looking extremely proud.
The flames burned and rose in the wind, making the lantern paper rustle.
The lantern ghost seemed to be laughing, mocking Xiao Huang's incompetence.
Xiao Huang was so annoyed by this lantern ghost that Hong Wen got furious.
It flew up and opened its mouth. A devouring force emerged from its mouth and pounced on the head of the lantern evil ghost. Then it sucked its head into its mouth in one gulp.
The Sun Swallowing Technique! The All-Devouring Technique!
Physical attacks are useless, Ah Huang just opens his mouth and creates it.
Although this lantern evil ghost has no physical body, its All-Devouring Technique in the Sun-Swallowing Technique can devour everything, and it sucked all the flames on its head in one gulp.
It was as if all energy sources of this lantern evil ghost were drained away, and only a withered yellow lantern was left, falling down and rolling to the side.
Ah Huang swallowed the red flame in one gulp and stomped on the lantern to pieces.
"Like to pretend?"
