Chapter 266 Two-headed monster
The two had just crossed the first torii gate when the already dim street lights on both sides suddenly went dark.
Their steps were not affected at all, and they continued to walk leisurely into the shrine as if they were strolling in their own yard.
Suddenly, a cold wind blew up around.
“Huff, huff, huff—”
“Rustle, rustle—”
The branches of the trees on both sides were almost broken by the wind, and the corners of their clothes were also affected and crisscrossed with each other.
Qing Yanrou let out an impatient click of her tongue and casually swept her hand across the corners of their crossed clothes. The clothes then drooped naturally and obediently, no longer fluttering in the wind.
“Hahahaha, hehehe——”
Suddenly, creepy laughter was heard all around them, from men and women, old and young. In this dark place in the wilderness, there was an atmosphere straight out of a horror movie.
It seems that whether they are Chinese ghosts or foreign ghosts, they all pay great attention to the atmosphere.
Qing Yanrou couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
She simply took out a few talismans to exorcise evil spirits and threw them around.
"ah--"
"ah--"
The screams continued for more than two minutes and then disappeared.
A strong yin energy suddenly hit them from the front, and they both looked up at the same time.
Then they saw a female ghost in white clothes with her hair loose, running towards them at a very fast speed.
The ghost girl's face was extremely pale, and her lips were bright red, similar to the red lips of the half-human, half-ghost woman in kimono who had previously broken into their room.
Her nails were exceptionally long and thin, and contained not only yin energy but also a hint of evil energy, exactly the same as the evil energy on the man before.
"ah--"
The female ghost screamed, and her long nails were about to poke into Qing Yanrou's eyes.
Qing Yanrou used her hand as a sharp blade, and the spiritual energy gathered in her palm, instantly cutting off the nails that were in front of her.
His other hand also held spiritual energy as he punched the ghost girl in the stomach.
"ah--"
This voice was different from the scream of encouragement she had heard before her attack. It was filled with heart-wrenching pain.
The female ghost was knocked back into the darkness by her punch. Only another painful scream was heard, and the surroundings fell into silence.
But both of them clearly felt a chewing sound coming from the air, and an aura that was a hundred times more dangerous than before spreading in the darkness.
Qing Yanrou and Chu Tingbai looked at each other, and Chu Tingbai could see her worry about him from her eyes.
What he feared most was that she would be restrained because of him, so he whispered, "I will protect myself well."
Qing Yanrou was not without confidence in what was behind this aura, but she didn't know how many things were waiting for them in other people's territory.
So she was worried that there would always be times when she couldn't take care of him.
However, Chu Tingbai's own cultivation is also good, and he has a lot of talismans on him, so he still has the ability to protect himself.
She then concentrated on waiting for the guy in the dark to show up.
After a long time, a gust of wind blew from behind them.
The two did not turn around at the same time, but Qing Yanrou turned back to back with him to deal with the long-awaited attack.
Chu Tingbai stared warily at the dark depths of the sacred road ahead.
When Qing Yanrou turned around, she was faced with an extremely ugly monster that was grinning at her.
The monster that attacked her was a pair of monsters sharing one body.
Their hair was loose, one head had red eyes, and the other head had green eyes. Although the eye colors were different, they both revealed a kind of wild beast-like madness and sharpness in their eyes.
Their grinning mouths revealed four long fangs, which emitted a chill in the moonlight.
Although they share the same body, they cooperate very well.
The monster moved towards Qing Yanrou very quickly, but suddenly stopped when it was less than two meters away from her.
A pair of hands suddenly grew longer and came straight towards her.
Qing Yanrou took out the peach wood sword, injected spiritual power into it, and first swung it directly at one of her hands.
The hand that was hit by the peach wood sword slowed down for a moment, and a "sizzling" sound was heard from it. Then it continued to move towards her, but its speed was much slower.
She ignored the other intact hand and dodged to the side along Chu Tingbai's back, raising the peach wood sword in her hand again and stabbing at the hand that was slowing down.
"Uh, ah—"
She used her sword to cut the tendons of the hand that had slowed down. The monster cried out in pain from both mouths at the same time, and the cry was extremely miserable.
The hand with severed tendons slowly tried to retract, but how could Qing Yanrou miss this opportunity?
"Be careful."
She whispered something in Chu Tingbai's ear, then rolled over to avoid the attack from her other intact hand and rushed directly towards the arm that was retracting.
The arm without tendons moved extremely slowly, and she caught up with it in an instant. The spiritual power in her hand seemed to be inexhaustible and continuously injected into her peach wood sword.
She didn't stop until she reached the limit of the peach wood sword.
He raised the peach wood sword in his hand, which was shining silver in the moonlight because it was filled with spiritual power, and chopped it directly at the arm.
“Ah—ah—ah—”
This time, the arm was cut off directly from the bend of the hand, and the broken arm was now "gurgling" with black blood with a fishy smell.
The monster was in pain and was waving the half of its arm that was still on its body around. The thick black blood swept onto the grass beside it, and the originally vibrant grass withered in an instant.
Seeing this scene, Qing Yanrou quickly created a spiritual power protective shield for herself.
"Qingqing, be careful!"
"Don't come over here!"
She heard Chu Tingbai's worried and anxious roar, and spoke to him while using the peach wood sword to deal with her other intact hand.
Chu Tingbai's footsteps stopped abruptly behind her, and then he paid more attention to the situation around him.
Qing Yanrou's spirits were always kept high, and of course she felt another hand attacking her.
She rolled over as she dodged the black blood flowing from the broken arm. The spiritual energy in the peach wood sword in her hand was still abundant, so she didn't need to replenish it. She just raised the sword to block the attack from the other hand.
After blocking the attack, she walked to the other side where the black blood from the broken arm was not contaminated.
But in the next moment, she felt two fierce attacks.
She looked carefully and found that the arm that had just been broken had grown a new one.
Well, it's just like weeds. It will continue to grow after being cut, and the cycle is quite short.
