After bidding farewell to the enthusiastic fans, everyone set out again.
Because Xun Ling's flying sword was carrying Su Ye, her pet Husky had to move to another location.
It was originally arranged to follow Lin Junjie, but it didn't go, but jumped onto Gu Ranxi's tattered shield. The reason was simple, it envied Caimao for having fans and being popular, and wanted to ask for advice, so that it could also develop a wave of fans and become an Internet celebrity.
Caimao scoffed at Erha's wish.
Want to be an internet celebrity? Do you think it's that easy to be an internet celebrity? What are your skills? Can you cook or be a village bully? Do you want to become an internet celebrity by acting stupid?
Cai Mao didn't want to pay any attention to Erha, for fear of being infected by it and becoming stupid, so he took advantage of the opportunity to take off and jumped from Gu Ranxi's shield to Lin Junjie's pipa.
It is a skilled and courageous cat, but the Husky is not like that.
Although this creature is stupid, it takes its life very seriously. After estimating the distance and its own jumping ability, it feels that there is a high chance that it will miss... By then, the owner might even think that it is hopelessly stupid and choose to give up, and then it will be really dumbfounded.
The helpless Erha could only stay on Gu Ranxi's shield, watching the shield falling into pieces and fragments under the blowing of the snow wind, and felt so scared and nervous. In the end, it simply hugged Gu Ranxi and trembled.
This made Xun Ling grit his teeth in hatred of its cowardly appearance.
Flying out of the snow-capped mountains, Sumu suggested going to the village where they had encountered the nine-tailed snake before.
Everyone agreed and was very concerned about the situation of the villagers. Although the poisoned and injured people were treated at the time, physical injuries were easy to treat but mental injuries were not so easy to heal.
After being frightened by the nine-tailed snake and the snakes, the villagers must have had some psychological problems. Many people even left the village, thinking it was unsafe to live there. They also wanted to go over and see if they could help these people again.
However, when they arrived at the village, they were surprised to find that the situation was not at all what they had imagined!
The village not only did not become deserted, but it was also very lively because many tourists came.
In addition, there are many snake models placed inside and outside the village, some are bought plastic toys, and some are made of straw. Outside the village, at the place where Sumu killed the nine-tailed snake, there is also a huge nine-tailed snake made of bamboo and straw... Although the workmanship is a bit rough, it is big enough. Many tourists also pose in front of the straw pile statue of the nine-tailed snake to take pictures.
"What's going on?"
Su Mu and the others were a little dumbfounded.
Although this village used to be a tourist destination, after it turned from a dangerous snowy mountain area into a harsh place, few tourists came here. Why is it so lively now?
Gu Ranxi took out his cell phone, searched online, and found the answer.
"Someone posted a video of us fighting snakes and killing a nine-tailed snake on the Internet, and it went viral, and this village has also become an Internet celebrity attraction. The scenery here is already beautiful, and the local government, the Snow Mountain Base, and the cultivators sent by various cultivation universities patrol day and night to eliminate the ferocious beasts that sneaked out of the dangerous areas of the Snow Mountain. This makes people feel safe and secure, and thus attracts a large number of tourists. Now all the homestays in this village are fully booked, and it is hard to find a room!"
Gu Ranxi sent the video she found to the group, and everyone clicked on it to take a look.
This video was probably secretly filmed by someone in the village. The picture was not very clear, but a huge and terrifying nine-tailed snake could still be seen. As for the others, only their shapes could be seen, but their faces could not be seen clearly.
After all, it was night and the distance was far, so it was good enough to be able to capture a rough outline.
"I didn't expect this result. Looking at the booming business, the people in the village should not have any psychological trauma, right?"
"They definitely don't have any psychological trauma anymore. I guess some of them even hope that the monsters will attack the village one or two more times and be defeated, so that they can take advantage of the popularity and further hype up the village."
"So, we have also become a hot topic for others to take advantage of? Hey, does this count as 'promoting products'?"
Several people talked to each other, expressing their feelings. However, it was a good thing that the village had become like this.
"Are we still going into the village?" Kevin asked.
Gu Ranxi frowned and shook her head: "Let's not go in. If we are recognized, we won't be able to leave."
This statement was agreed by many people.
Although the tourists didn't recognize them, many people in the village had seen them, and even if they had only seen them a few times, they still remembered them clearly. When they entered the village, they would be recognized immediately. By then, these tourists who came for the "Nine-tailed Snake Incident" would surround them in three layers! Even if they could fly, they couldn't fly away.
Besides, they wanted to go into the village before because they were worried about the people in the village.
Given the current situation, there is no need for them to worry.
The group of people flew away without stopping.
Some tourists in the village saw them but didn't take them seriously, thinking they were cultivators on routine patrol.
They have seen a lot in the past few days, and their initial enthusiasm and curiosity have long since disappeared. They are even too lazy to take out their mobile phones to take pictures.
Only a few children, because they saw the green cat, Erha and the lovebirds, shouted excitedly: "Wow, big bird, big dog and big cat!"
Yuan Liang was receiving these tourists. When he heard the child's words, he smiled and said, "That's the cultivators' spiritual pet." He looked up.
As a result, he saw it and shouted excitedly: "Oh, it's my benefactors!"
Hearing Yuan Liang's words, the tourists suddenly became excited.
"You mean, the one who just flew over was the cultivator who killed the Nine-tailed Snake?"
"Ah, why didn't you tell me earlier? Take a photo and post it on WeChat Moments!"
"It's a pity that they didn't come into the village, otherwise I would have taken a photo with them!"
Yuan Liang was also wondering why Sumu and his friends didn't go into the village. He wanted to repay the kindness of saving his and his wife's lives. After seeing the tourists' reactions, he understood why Sumu and his friends didn't go into the village.
"Why."
Yuan Liang sighed. He wanted to repay the kindness of Su Mu and others, but it seemed that he had no chance.
Because in the future, he might never have the chance to meet Su Mu and others again.
Inside the village, Wu Mingsheng also saw a group of people from Sumu flying across the sky.
He quickly turned around and went back to the house, greeted a few guests staying in his B&B with a smile, and went straight to his room.
He locked the door, took out the gilded bronze statue with a human head and a snake body from the safe, lit three special medicinal incense sticks, knelt on the ground, called out the honorable name, and then whispered what he had just seen.
This is a task assigned by the gods. As long as you see Sumu, you must report his whereabouts.
Originally, Wu Mingsheng was not very satisfied with this god, and even thought about stopping being a fan, because this god actually asked him to contribute money!
But later, when his wish of "making business better" came true, his attitude changed 180 degrees!
As long as this god can make him rich and contribute some money, what does it matter?
Of course, the money contributed has to be far less than what he earns!
Wu Mingsheng did not think that the improvement in business was due to the popularity of Su Mu and others, and believed that it was a gift from God.
Because of this, he was very dissatisfied with other people in the village, thinking that they were all taking advantage of him.
The better other people's business is, the more unhappy Wu Mingsheng is. After reporting Su Mu's whereabouts, he also told the gods about it, hoping that the gods would punish those who "steal business" from him, so that all the business would come to his store... He didn't care whether his own homestay could accommodate so many tourists.
In the dark and unknown space, the monster felt very unhappy after hearing Wu Mingsheng's words.
Why do you ask me for such a trivial matter? What do you think I am? I am a god! Not a babysitter!
The monster did not respond to Wu Mingsheng's prayer, but just snorted coldly.
This sound was transmitted to Wu Mingsheng's brain through the gilded bronze statue. Although his ears could not hear the sound, his brain had received the signal and was polluted.
From that day on, every night, strange whispers would ring in Wu Mingsheng's ears, leading him step by step towards madness.
Neither doctors nor practitioners could find anything wrong with these whispers and simply thought that he was suffering from some kind of mental illness.
On the other hand, Sumu and his companions did not encounter any accidents along the way and returned to Qingcheng Mountain smoothly.
When they were about to enter the school gate, Su Mu stopped Gu Ranxi and others.
"Wait a minute. Before we go back to school, I'll take you to find Teacher Xiong Da and Teacher Shan Ji to help check and clean up the evil spirits."
During this mission, they not only encountered the nine-tailed snake, but also the fox demon and even the ancient demon drum. They were all more or less contaminated with some demonic energy. Even if these demonic energy did not attract evil spirits to them, they would still have a certain impact on their practice.
In fact, there is also a process for exorcising evil spirits in the snow mountain base, but it is prepared for the soldiers and cultivators guarding the front-line bases, or those who carry out missions and scientific research in the dangerous snow mountain areas for a long time.
As for most students in cultivation schools, since they only stay in the dangerous area of the snowy mountains for a few days and do not go deep into the dangerous area, they do not need to go through this process after coming out.
Because of their experience and merits, Su Mu and his friends are qualified to exorcise evil spirits in the snow mountain base, but they have to stay in the rear base for a few more days before it is their turn.
They don't want to wait.
Instead of wasting that time, I might as well go back to school and find a solution.
Originally, Gu Ranxi and the others wanted to seek help from their respective training mentors, but when they heard Su Mu say that they could get Xiong Da, Shan Ji and the others to help, they naturally wanted to follow Su Mu.
After all, Big Bear and Pheasant are stronger than many professors in the school, so it seems more reliable to ask them to drive away the evil spirits.
Soon, from the mountain stream beside the gate of Qingcheng Mountain Cultivation University, there were screams and wails.
Gu Ranxi and Kevin never expected that Xiong Da and Shan Ji's way of getting rid of evil spirits was to beat them up!
Especially the big bear, which would just sit on the person and start hitting with its claws raised up. How could the person not howl miserably?
If I had known that this was how to exorcise evil spirits, which grandson would have followed Su Mu!
But why didn't Su Ye get beaten? Why was he still chewing the spiritual bamboo given by Xiong Da?
