Chapter 53 Lightning Struck Wood
In order to make it more convenient to learn Taoism, Chu Tingbai moved to No. 116 Tianfu Street, just up the same floor from Qing Yanrou.
Outside the window, the night was as dark as water, the north wind was howling, and in the bedroom, lying on a large European-style bed was the fair-skinned Chu Tingbai.
The temperature in the room was clearly just right, but he was already sweating profusely and was not sleeping soundly.
His brows were slightly furrowed, and hot sweat dripped down his forehead onto the pillow. He was in a dream at this moment.
It was pitch black all around, and eyes flashing green light were staring at him in the dark. Strange cries of "jiejie" were heard around him.
All of this is the same method that the old Taoist priest used to deal with him. Could it be that person's method again?
Although he thought this in his heart, he stood there without moving.
"Hehe, his soul is so tempting, I really want to eat it."
At this time, Dao Laogui, whose whole body was green, couldn't help but look at the man standing not far away with green eyes.
Finally, she couldn't resist the temptation and attacked him from behind quickly.
When the other ghosts saw him take action first, they suppressed their impulses instantly, stepped back and watched quietly.
Feeling the strong wind coming from behind, he injected the mysterious power into his hands, dodged Dao Laogui's attack by turning sideways, and slapped him with his palm.
"ah..."
Hit by the palm containing mysterious power, Dao Lao Ghost let out a terrible scream, which frightened the ghosts that were ready to make a move nearby. They shuddered and instantly shut their mouths and retreated dozens of meters.
The "jiejie" sounds finally stopped, and there was silence all around except for the raging cold wind.
Dao Laogui looked at the human in front of him with a sinister look. Even though the person in front of him was not easy to deal with, he still wanted to devour his soul because of the tempting soul.
Covering his chest that had just been injured by Xuanli, he exerted strength in his palm, and a faint green light appeared in his hand. He pressed it against the place that had just been injured, and slowly the green blood stopped flowing out of there.
Dao Laogui stood up again, his face ferocious and terrifying. He opened his bloody mouth and screamed to the sky, and instantly there were ghosts howling. At this time, the cold wind around him suddenly intensified, accompanied by large drops of rain.
Looking at the angry ghost in front of him, Chu Tingbai remembered the description of Dao Lao ghost in the Record of Hundred Ghosts that Qing Yanrou showed him. The male Dao Lao ghost was dark green all over, while the female Dao Lao ghost was purple-red all over.
And the stronger they are, the darker the color of their body will be. Looking at the Dao Lao ghost in front of him whose green color is turning black, he is undoubtedly close to the strength of a ghost general.
He was more cautious now. Noticing something in his pocket, he couldn't help but reach out and take it out. It was the lightning-inducing talisman that Qing Yanrou had drawn when she taught him step by step in the afternoon.
Last time in the old Taoist priest’s dream, other things couldn’t be brought in. What’s going on this time?
Before he could think, Dao Laogui was already ready to rush towards him.
When he was less than ten meters away from him, he suddenly opened his mouth and a stream of dark green liquid shot out of it, straight towards him.
He quickly rolled over to avoid the liquid. The moment the liquid came into contact with the ground, a sizzling sound of corrosion was heard.
Looking at the corroded ground, Chu Tingbai's face darkened. He injected profound energy into the lightning talisman while rapidly chanting the lightning spell:
"Nine Heavens Mysterious Break, transformed into divine thunder. The magnificent power of heaven, guided by the sword."
"Boom, boom," bursts of thunder were heard in the sky, and a lightning bolt as thick as a wrist struck Dao Laogui straight at him.
Feeling the majesty of thunder and lightning, Dao Laogui quickly moved to the side. Although he was not struck directly, his momentum was weakened by half in an instant, and even the color of his body changed slightly from dark green to dark green.
Seeing that he was about to be defeated, Dao Laogui looked at Chu Tingbai with more fierce eyes, wanting to die with him. The venom shot out of his mouth became more concentrated and attacked him at a faster speed.
While dodging the venom, Chu Tingbai took out the only two remaining lightning talismans and recited the incantation quickly.
"Boom, boom!" Lightning that was even thicker than before gathered in the sky.
Two bolts of lightning fell at such a fast speed and were much thicker that Dao Laogui could not dodge them. He was struck by the lightning and his soul was instantly torn to pieces.
Another bolt of lightning struck a big tree nearby, causing it to collapse instantly. Only a half-man-high trunk remained, with the energy of the lightning still faintly remaining in it.
The ghost who had just retreated to the side saw that his biggest rival, Dao Lao Ghost, had been eliminated, and that human did not seem to have any extra talismans.
The ghosts were planning to divide and devour the man's soul together when they saw that the object struck by lightning was a century-old jujube tree.
At this time, the remaining half of the jujube wood contained a strong power of thunder and lightning. This happened to be the best wood struck by lightning. The power of thunder and lightning was the most powerful against all kinds of ghosts. Seeing this, the ghosts fled.
Chu Tingbai walked over and looked at the remaining intact jujube wood. She couldn't help but smile slightly. This magic weapon could be given to her.
But how to cut down the jujube wood was another matter. Out of the corner of his eye he saw a hanged ghost still there, spying on him.
"You, come here."
Hearing his voice, the hanged man started to run away.
"It depends on whether you run faster or the lightning is faster."
The man's low and flat voice sounded behind him. The hanged man stopped his escape and hated himself in his heart for being so greedy. Now he was doomed!
"Master, what can I do for you?"
This hanged ghost was wearing Qing Dynasty clothing and must have been dead for over two hundred years. However, she indulged in lust all day long, so she was still just an ordinary female ghost.
The hanged ghost deliberately lowered her voice, hoping that he would spare her because she was a weak female ghost.
"If you keep pinching your voice, I'll strike you with a bolt of lightning." Chu Tingbai said to her expressionlessly, looking at her with heavy eyes.
Oh, this is just a stinky Taoist priest who doesn’t understand romance!
Frightened by him, the hanged ghost dared not make trouble again, "I wonder what the chief wants me to do?"
"You, wrap your hair around that piece of lightning-struck wood and use your strength to break it."
The hanged man looked at the handsome man in front of him with disbelief. He couldn't believe that the words came out of his mouth. He was so heartless!
But seeing his gloomy face and serious words, she had no choice but to resign herself to using her hair to wrap around the piece of lightning-struck wood.
The residual lightning energy on it made her afraid. She tiptoed over slowly, grew her hair to its longest length, closed her eyes, and slowly wrapped her hair around it. The moment her hair touched the lightning-struck wood, it got burnt. She looked at Chu Tingbai crying.
Seeing that he was still unmoved, he simply made up his mind, wrapped it around himself, and used all his strength to quickly break the remaining part of the jujube wood.
Having completed his mission, the hanged ghost no longer dared to indulge in men and sex. He ran away quickly and disappeared into the night.
Looking at the satisfactory lightning-struck wood, Chu Tingbai picked it up, his face softened and the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
But how can I get out of this dream?
As soon as the thought came to his mind, he disappeared from the spot.
