Chapter 128 I'll take your sword!
"It's not over yet?" Li Xinyi asked in surprise.
Li Chu did this all night...over and over again...and it never ended.
He looked normal, but Li Xinyi felt that she couldn't bear it any longer. Although she didn't really need to move...but it was tiring to have so many attacks one after another.
When will it end?
Then, Li Chu said, "There is something wrong with the mountain god."
"Ah?" Li Xinyi was startled.
"At first, I felt that something seemed amiss in the mountain temple. It was just that the auspicious clouds of merit there were too abundant, covering up the other auras."
"Just now, I saw this ghost king using the corpse qi of zombies to cover up his own breath and hide underground. It suddenly occurred to me that the merit clouds and mists of the mountain temple are also used in the same way. Hidden in them is... corpse qi."
"The Ghost King buried these zombies underground so that they would not move around outside, which would greatly reduce the demand for human blood."
"The barbarians in this Immortal Cave hold annual sacrifices. They don't need to go out hunting, let alone cross the Yindang Mountains."
"Instead, it's the weirdness in the mountain temple..."
"If there is also a demand for human blood essence..."
"It is very likely related to the corpse disaster that occurs once a year in Renjiaji."
"You mean..." Li Xinyi frowned and said, "The mountain god protects the zombies and lets them go down the mountain to Renjiaji to harm people every year? But... he is the mountain god who is the manifestation of the heroic spirit of the founding general. He protects the people all year round. How could he..."
"I don't know." Li Chu shook his head: "The reason may only be known by him, but this possibility is very high. It is very strange that Chaotianque has not been able to find the source of the corpse for so many years. But if the source of the corpse is hidden in the mountain temple, then it makes sense."
"We are going to the mountain temple again?"
"Um!"
Li Chu turned around and left as soon as he said he would, looking neatly dressed in a blue robe.
Li Xinyi followed with a little hesitation.
If it was about slaying demons and monsters, she would do it without hesitation.
But now that Li Chu said that there was something wrong with the highly respected mountain god, she couldn't help but hesitate.
Even if Li Chu is right...
But Chen Kaijiang is not only the god of the mountains and rivers here, but also a founding general appointed by Heluo Taizu!
How to deal with this?
But after thinking about it, she felt relieved. It didn't require her to think about it.
Tonight, she was just a driver...
The flower branches rose into the air and returned to the Yindang Mountains.
The night is still deep and the moon is not far away.
During this short period of time, the two of them had a big fight and then left.
Only an empty fairy cave was left, and the inside was in a mess...
…
Return to the mountain temple.
Li Chu stepped in first, raised his head and looked at the statue above him with a calm gaze.
Just now, while still in mid-air, he used his mind to scan the mountain temple several times. In this dense cloud of merit, there were indeed wisps of corpse qi hidden.
It's like that hint of sin beneath countless achievements.
Li Xinyi looked at him, then at the statue, with a look of fear but also expectation.
Then Li Chu said in a loud voice: "Please, Lord Mountain God, show up and see us."
The acquired gods are not supreme beings. In his territory, he can hear you as long as you ask to see him, it just depends on whether he is willing to show up.
Soon, light began to shine on the statue of the mountain god.
"You guys are back so soon?"
"The Ghost King in the Immortal Cave has surrendered." Li Chu said calmly.
"oh?"
The mountain god appeared, looking majestic and a little suspicious.
"You actually managed to kill the Red Ghost King?"
He really knew the existence of the Ghost King.
Li Chu asked back: "Lord Mountain God... do you want us to be left in the Immortal Cave by the Ghost King?"
The mountain god frowned: "What do you mean by that?"
"I want to ask..." Li Chu did not answer his question, but asked again: "What crime should a god of mountains and rivers, a founding general, bear for shielding and condoning zombies to cause chaos?"
The mountain god remained expressionless and uttered, "It's inexplicable!"
"Is it inexplicable?" Li Chu looked at him directly: "Under your altar, the corpse aura is looming, but no amount of merit or virtue can cover it up."
The mountain god was silent.
After a while.
He then slowly said: "I have made contributions to Heluo, and I have shed blood for Taizu..."
Li Chu looked at him quietly.
His contributions to expanding territory and protecting Mount Yindang for eight hundred years can never be erased, and the great merits of this mountain temple are enough to illustrate this.
But... let's be honest.
"After I died, I turned into a mountain god. Little did I know that my son was harmed by evil spirits in my hometown and turned into a zombie. My Chen family is extinct. I should have burned him to death, but I couldn't bear to do it... so I asked someone to escort him here. I originally wanted to take a look at him and then kill him with my own hands. But I couldn't bear to do it... so I enlightened his intelligence and brought him with me."
"For hundreds of years, I have kept him hidden here and kept him away from activities. However, his demand for blood essence has become increasingly strong..."
Zombies are transformed from humans and must suck human blood in order to survive. They cannot be replaced by cows, sheep, pigs, or dogs.
"I had no choice but to let him go down the mountain once a year to maintain his life..."
"If there are cultivators coming here, they will be protected by me and no one will notice them. But I didn't expect that you would find out today."
The mountain god looked at the little Taoist priest in front of him with a complicated expression.
When faced with a matter of life and death, his integrity may be beyond doubt, but when it comes to his loved ones, he is no longer firm, which is also the incomprehensible part of human nature.
Over the years, he has been constantly monitoring the demons and evil spirits in Yindang Mountain, and has invisibly saved countless lives at the foot of the mountain.
But...his shielding also caused many innocent people to die.
With all these things added together, his tall and bright image began to become distorted and unstable.
"Father!"
At this moment, a shout was heard from behind the altar.
Then there was a loud noise, as if some mechanism was opened, and then another tall, dark-faced young man appeared.
Its black color is not the dark skin color, but the rotten black color of zombies.
The first time Li Chu saw it, he had an idea in his mind.
This is an iron zombie.
It’s just because he has been suppressing his need for essence and blood, as well as his own cultivation for many years, so his Yin energy is slightly weak.
Tie Jiang glanced at him, a hint of scarlet greed flashing in his eyes.
The more advanced the zombies are, the stronger their desire for human blood becomes, and this cannot be defied.
It is the culprit behind the hundreds of years of corpse disasters in Renjiaji.
If it is not dealt with quickly, it may be able to control itself and come down the mountain once a year. As time goes by, it will sooner or later lose control and become a complete bloodthirsty evil spirit.
The mountain god looked at the iron zombie, frowning and saying nothing.
"Father, kill them." Tie Jiang's voice was stiff and his tone was cold.
"Rebellious son!" the mountain god shouted angrily, "You want to kill people and commit evil on my Yindang Mountain?"
"Father!" Tie Jiang said anxiously, "They have already found out. If we don't kill them and spread the news, what will happen to your reputation?"
It looked at Li Chu, its throat rolling.
Worrying about the mountain god's reputation was one reason, but the most important reason was his instinct as an iron zombie...
I felt an inexplicable temptation from Li Chu's blood.
It looked at the little Taoist priest in front of it as if it was looking at a fresh ginseng fruit.
It was as if there was a voice in my ear telling me that if I drank his blood, I would be able to become an immortal and ascend to heaven in broad daylight...
boom--
The mountain god suddenly raised his hand, drew a golden whip, and whipped the iron zombie several feet away, hitting it hard against the wall of the mountain god temple! The impact caused large cracks!
"You beast." The mountain god said angrily, "I only allow you to come down the mountain once a year so that you can struggle to survive. Now you want to kill people at every turn. Have you been controlled by the nature of corpse rigor mortis?"
"Father……"
Although the whip was heavy, it did not hurt the iron zombie at all.
The defense of a zombie at this stage has reached an incredible level. Even a full-strength attack from a Dragon Transformation cultivator may not be able to severely injure it.
"These hundreds of years have been a torture not only for you, but also for me." Tie Jiang suppressed his voice and said as slowly as possible: "Since I have been discovered today, I will explain it. If you continue to suppress me like this, you might as well kill me!"
The mountain god was furious when he heard this.
When father and son confront each other.
Li Chu gently interrupted and said, "If you really need me, I can do it for you."
Tie Jiang and the Mountain God glared at him at the same time.
Li Chu shrugged and said, "Forget it, it's not necessary."
Continue to watch the show quietly.
"Father." Tie Jiang stood up again and said in a deep voice, "You are a god, and I am an evil spirit. You can't protect me forever. I have always been afraid that sooner or later, I will be beaten to death by your own hands. Instead of this, it is better to let me go and let others kill me."
The mountain god stared at the iron zombie in front of him, his eyes trembling.
As a leading general back then, he only went back to see his child twice from the time he was born to the time he grew up, and he always felt guilty about it.
Therefore, when he later learned that the child was killed by a zombie, he couldn't help but want to see him, and was reluctant to kill him.
He has been trapped deeper and deeper over the years, and his heart is always extremely conflicted, but he can never bring himself to kill it, nor can he watch it die.
He always comforted himself with the contributions he had made to the dynasty.
I don't even want to think about it any more.
It was not until today when Li Chu completely exposed him that he began to waver. Can his own merits really be used to cover up the sins of future generations?
Seeing that he was speechless, Tie Jiang simply knelt down stiffly.
Kowtow.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
"Father, your kindness over the years has come to an end. From now on, I have nothing to do with you. If I come to Yindang Mountain to do evil again, you can kill me."
Tie Jiang said this resolutely, then stood up and walked out of the mountain temple.
At this moment, besides reluctance, it also felt an indescribable pleasure.
That bloodthirsty desire had been suppressed for more than eight hundred years, and after it became an iron zombie, it tormented it day and night.
From now on I can finally do whatever I want.
Even if he would eventually be killed, it would be after he had tasted enough human blood...
After being suppressed for so many years, suppressing desires, sleeping day and night, and maintaining the minimum survival needs, it now only feels that countless pains have accumulated in its heart.
If I could enjoy myself once, just once, it would be worth dying for!
Then, it looked at Li Chu who was blocking its way.
Although greedy desires were rolling in its stomach, it knew that the mountain god would never allow it to kill anyone on Mount Yindang.
So it said: "Little Taoist..."
"I was the one who killed all those people. My father has nothing to do with it. He will never protect me again. I hope you won't ruin his reputation after you go down the mountain. I should also shoulder my father's responsibility..."
"I'll take your sword!"
It knew that Li Chu had killed the Red Demon King, so he must be quite powerful.
but……
It is an iron zombie.
The one with the most terrifying defense among all the ghosts.
It has this confidence.
Hearing this, Li Xinyi blinked...
She was a little worried that this iron zombie would be difficult to deal with...
Now it takes the initiative to accept Li Chu's sword?
Is there such a good thing?
Li Chu raised his eyebrows when he heard this.
I feel bad for it, but...
Since you asked.
Then I can't refuse.
He slowly pulled out the Pure Yang sword from the sword sheath, which was extremely powerful against zombie evil spirits.
Said: "Okay."
Alas, I have revised this chapter several times and I don’t know how to deal with it.
