Chapter 2122: Like a meteor
"The fire is out!"
Chi Ruonan held the spear tightly with both hands, his eyes full of solemnity.
I didn't say anything, because I knew that it would be a long time before these fires were put out. Fires can stop these fierce ghosts for a while, but they can't stop these fierce ghosts forever.
Before, the reason why these fierce ghosts didn't attack the village or even approach the village was because these old ghosts didn't have much consciousness. They just relied on instinct to wander in the old forest and also relied on instinct to avoid the perceived danger.
Now, these powerful ghosts have undergone some mysterious changes. Not long after the night fell, they suddenly became stronger. In the dark, there is even a powerful ghost fairy sitting in the dark. This is very unreasonable in the past.
It is not difficult to judge from Chi Ruonan's previous words that these old ghosts can indeed continue to become stronger in the dark. As the night becomes darker, their strength becomes stronger, but this strength increases very slowly. It is often not until dawn that a stronger ghost is born. When the day is about to dawn, the ghost will naturally not attack the village again because there is no time.
Once the day breaks, these ghosts will disappear from this land. As for where they went, whether they entered an unknown space or still wandered around this land, but were not seen by people, it is unknown.
"Another fire has gone out!" Chi Ruonan gritted his teeth and said, "We can't just sit there and wait for death, we must do something!"
"Don't be impulsive!" I stopped Chi Ruonan and said in a deep voice, "Guarding the entrance to the shelter is more important than anything else. The most precious wealth of your village is the villagers, not anything else. As long as there are people, the village exists. Don't you understand this principle?"
"But..." Chi Ruonan gritted her teeth, her face full of resentment: "We have lived here for decades. Every plant and tree here was planted by our own hard work. If they are all destroyed, we will be homeless. Moreover, if these fires are all extinguished, then even if we survive tonight, we will still be attacked tomorrow night, and we will still die then!"
I was silent after hearing what Chi Ruonan said.
She was right. These fires are actually very important. Once they are all destroyed, then even if we can survive tonight, what about tomorrow night and the night after tomorrow?
Without these fires, the village will lose its barrier, and these fierce ghosts will start to roam in the village, killing people indiscriminately, and the village will inevitably be destroyed.
Although there is still a shelter, it is the last resort!
But...
what can we do?
The only thing we can do is to protect the people in the shelter and hold on until tonight.
What if the strong men in the village return one after another tomorrow?
At that time, we can rebuild the fire and reconstruct the defense.
If we can't even survive tonight, then everything will be in vain!
I took a deep breath and said, "Don't worry, I won't leave for now. If... we can survive tonight, I will help you rebuild the defensive fire tomorrow. I am also a dragon slayer, and my blood has the same effect!"
"You?" Chi Ruonan glanced at me with a hint of sarcasm in her eyes. She obviously looked down on me, but she didn't say the sarcasm in the end. After all, I was just a person who happened to pass by here. I was worthy of being a dragon slayer and a human being to share life and death with her. Painful
howls were still coming out one after another, and the sound of "puffing" was also constantly ringing. That was the sound of the fires going out one after another.
As the fires went out one after another, the village, which was originally brightly lit, gradually became dim, with only a dozen fires left, still holding on.
But the flickering flames were like candles in the wind, and could go out at any time!
"Here they come!" I suddenly spoke in a solemn voice.
As the fires went out, a gap appeared in the defense built by the fires.
The group of old ghosts swarmed into the village like a tide.
"Come on, you guard the entrance to the shelter, and I'll kill them all!"
Chi Ruonan couldn't hold back any longer. Seeing that the group of old ghosts had entered the village, he immediately took a spear, shouted, and flew out in one step.
She was extremely fast, and her soft body was now filled with rich Qi and blood. Although the acupoints on her body were incomplete, they also formed a fragmentary star map. In the dim night, the star map kept flashing, just like the stars in the sky, shining brilliantly.
Then, a trembling "hum" sound was heard, and the long spear in Chi Ruonan's hand was like a startled dragon, raising a cold light in the air. Then, the cold light was like starlight, instantly shattered and shot into the group of fierce ghosts.
In an instant, the roar of "Ah Ah Ah" was heard continuously, and the starlight directly beat the group of old ghosts to death.
"Great shooting skills!" My eyes lit up immediately after seeing this scene.
I have seen many people who use guns, and the one who left the deepest impression on me is my senior sister.
Holding the dragon bone and stepping on the stars, if you give birth to a daughter, you should be like Zhang Yingchun!
This sentence has been widely circulated in the martial arts world for a long time after the martial arts conference.
I thought that the heroic figure of my senior sister holding a long spear was the best in the world, but I didn't expect that I had just come to this chaotic era and met a woman as cool as my senior sister.
That gun, every style, every glance and every shout, all revealed a rare heroic and coolness that women rarely have.
It's really as cool as a meteor!
You know, that spear is just an ordinary weapon, not even a magic weapon, but at this moment, held in Chi Ruonan's hand, it seems to have turned into a magical weapon that can kill demons and monsters. Wherever the spear goes, the old ghosts are broken and wailing.
And her dashing figure, at this moment, seems to have turned into a shadow, constantly cruising among the fierce ghosts, madly harvesting the lives of these old ghosts.
"Okay, come back first!"
I can see that Chi Ruonan's breath has reached the limit, and she must come back to breathe.
After hearing what I said, Chi Ruonan stepped lightly on the ground with her toes, and the whole person was like a flying bird, holding a spear and tapping her toes in the air. In just a blink of an eye, she has returned to my side.
"Where did you learn this gun technique?" I looked at Chi Ruonan who was taking a deep breath and couldn't help but asked with a smile.
"Why, do you want to learn?" Chi Ruonan glanced at me and said coldly: "Call me Master and I will teach you!"
"That's not necessary!" I shook my head.
At this time, all the fires around the village had been extinguished, and the whole village had fallen into darkness.
This place has completely lost its protection and has become part of the world of the dead.
"You continue to guard the entrance to the shelter!" Chi Ruonan raised the spear again, but this time, I blocked it.
"Dragon slayers don't need to fight like this." I shook my head and whispered, "Let me do it!"
"You?" She looked at me in surprise.
And I took a step forward under her surprised gaze, and then, with my hands behind my back, I stomped my feet lightly.
"Acupoints, open!"
