Chapter 117 Disaster
What kind of monster is this? How did it get past the Chu family's talisman and into the mansion?
Chu Songjun didn't have time to think too much. The evil ghost suddenly rushed out from the shadow and bit the monster. The piercing evil energy penetrated into the monster's skin like a steel needle. Chu Songjun's face was as pale as a ghost. He stretched out his hand to block Old Lady Chu.
The monster fell right on the way they were leaving the small shrine, blocking their way out.
The evil ghost let out a sharp cry of pain and bit the monster. The monster felt the pain but continued to dance wildly.
Chu Songjun glanced and his face turned even paler. Another evil ghost curled up in the air and suddenly crashed into a wall of the small ancestral hall, leaving a deep scratch on the wall.
Old Mrs. Chu was over seventy years old, but she was remarkably calm when she saw this. She turned back, took off her shawl and opened it, then reached out and swept the three spirit tablets into the shawl, which turned into a small package and she held it in her arms.
"Bang——" a huge crash was heard, and the baby ghost finally broke through the wall with its head. Its head rolled down the wall, bounced to the monster, and suddenly bit the monster.
The commotion was quite loud, and Chu Songjun quickly asked the ghost to lead Old Madam Chu away, and he turned back to look at the battlefield.
The monster was very resistant to attacks, and the two heads cooperated with each other very well, as if they shared one brain. Its scales were like fine armor and were difficult to break.
Chu Songjun had no fear of such strange-looking monsters. After all, he had seen countless ghosts, not to mention that he had seen the outer gods that were difficult to look at. His rich experience made Chu Songjun calm.
The monster's momentum gradually weakened under the continuous attacks of the evil spirits.
But at this moment, the footsteps of the guards raised by the Chu family were heard outside the house. Chu Songjun heard the sound, rolled over, and escaped from the dilapidated little ancestral hall. The monster howled miserably and rushed out with them.
Holding a sword or axe in one hand and a talisman in the other, his weapons should be powerful and he should be fearless of anything.
But when a large group of them rushed into the yard and sent the frightened Old Mrs. Chu out of the yard, their actions towards the monster suddenly changed.
The guards froze in place, all they could hear was the continuous sound of weapons falling and talismans slipping from their hands.
They were like a group of moths chasing the light, staring at the only light in the sky, waiting foolishly. Suddenly, something peeled off from them and rushed towards the monster!
The monster, which originally had a two-headed lizard body, had a wide belly that turned into invisible smoke in an instant, and it rose into the air from the piled up ruins with its heavy body. The illusory mist was constantly deforming and expanding.
It suddenly turned into an appearance full of gold, silver and treasures, suddenly turned into a ferocious wild leopard, and suddenly turned into a graceful beauty. As the monster continued to rise, the necks of the guards who were staring at it gradually tilted upwards, and their bones made terrifying crackling sounds.
Chu Songjun instantly realized what means the monsters had used to confuse them. He gritted his teeth and thought that judging from their appearance, the eyes must be the key. In such a critical moment, what could block their sight?
He looked down at his feet. He didn't have much else, but he had a lot of ghosts!
Countless short ghost figures climbed out from the shadows and climbed onto the guards' bodies with laughter. Yin energy emanated from their ghost bodies, entangled around the guards, and left purple bruises on their skin.
“Uhh—”
The guards all groaned in pain, and pairs of tender hands reached out from the back of their heads and scratched their wide-open eyes.
The ghost covered their eyes!
Although it was dealt with in time, the monster was obviously terribly strengthened. The rising black smoke transformed into various shapes and rushed towards Chu Songjun. Chu Songjun rolled to the side flexibly, leaving a huge pit mark on the spot!
"We can't go on like this!"
Chu Songjun gritted his teeth secretly.
This thing is related to people. It seems that the more people there are, the more a certain thing can be obtained from them to strengthen oneself. And the entire Chu family has definitely a lot of people. If you continue to support them, who knows what will happen in the end!
The blood color on Chu Songjun's face was draining away visibly. His originally plump cheeks became sunken, and his whole body was like a packing bag that had the air sucked out of it. He was shrinking rapidly. His clothes, which had originally been tailored to fit him, were gradually becoming loose, and his hands were so thin that bones were visible at his sleeves.
The world was silent for a moment.
The monster twisted by smoke was also frozen, its four pairs of eyes staring at the tiny humans below. There was some confusion in its eyes, but as a monster, it obviously understood the principle of attacking the enemy while he is weak, and its attacks followed one after another in an instant!
The pitch-black hammer swung down—
"!"
“——”
An unheard sound roared up from the depths of the shadows!
The surrounding wooden buildings were shattered in an instant, and tiles fell from the broken roofs like raindrops. The huge impact continued to spread outward with Chu Songjun as the center!
Dust flew up and huge clouds of smoke fell.
The monster leaned forward with both heads to take a look: "——"
"Cough——" Chu Songjun coughed up a mouthful of blood and could no longer hold on and half-knelt on the ground.
Under the cold moonlight, a dark figure walked out from behind the young man who looked as haggard as a zombie. She raised her head slowly. She had a pair of narrow and noble phoenix eyes. Her scarlet eyeballs were mixed with thick black. The ghost slowly raised her eyes and met the monster with constricted pupils in the air.
Chu Songjun raised his face, but there was no fear in his eyes.
The wildly dancing black hair shot out and suddenly wrapped around the monster's four legs, suddenly pulling it down from mid-air!

"What! Even prehistoric monsters are brought out!"
Wu You looked at the simulator in a daze and jumped up from his chair in shock.
He scratched his head in confusion: "No, the feng shui of Xijing is too good. The successor emperor is a Frankenstein, a madman calls himself a god, and a prehistoric monster can jump out of his house!"
Halfway through his speech, Wu You suddenly came to his senses and thought, wait a minute, it seems that all these weird things happening around another "him" are not good things, this feng shui is against "him"!
Wu You retorted: "Pooh! Pooh! Bad feng shui, bad feng shui."
[14 years old: With the blessing from your mother, you fought against a monster you had never seen before for 300 rounds, and successfully subdued the monster with your own purple gold gourd.
The monster appeared too suddenly, and you have no idea how it got into the mansion, but you know there is definitely something fishy going on.
How did the person behind the scenes send the giant beast into the Chu family mansion? Did he rely on the tunnel?
You just can't figure it out.
As the saying goes, good news doesn’t travel far, but bad news travels a thousand miles. The house of Old Lady Chu was destroyed by a monster. Everyone in Xijing heard about it overnight. I don’t know if there was a mistake in the process of spreading the news. Everyone was concerned about how Old Lady Chu was, and they didn’t care where the monster came from. They were concerned about other things. They all said, you, the pride of the Chu family, burned down the ancestral hall again! You can be called the knight of the Chu family ancestral hall.
Congratulations, your reputation continues to grow.
You looked at the small ancestral hall, which covered an area of about six square meters, and at the candle that was blown out by the strong wind at the beginning, which might have really lit up the entire bedroom of Old Madam Chu later. You gritted your teeth, but unfortunately the candle had already broken into dozens of pieces in advance, and the poor one was crushed into mud. You had no choice but to give up and not get angry anymore.
But thanks to this "scandal", you also got a lot of things. This thing is dangerous, so you, an animal hunting expert, need to bring your "Purple Gold Gourd" to capture the monster overnight!
This may be equivalent to an alternative search warrant. You finally have the opportunity to peel off the skin of the family and see what is underneath the skin.
14 years old: This disaster seems to have no source and seems to never end.
Something seems to be wrong. This disaster is not that simple. 】
Children at the street corner are gathering together to play hopscotch.
They sang: "There is a mountain on the river, there are forty-six trees on the mountain, there are forty-six ginseng fruits on the trees, when the wind blows, the fruits fall, disappear, and cannot be seen!"
A magnificent carriage drove through the street. The coachman from a noble family sat silently on it, waving his whip to drive passers-by.
The originally lively crowd had different expressions as they watched the carriage carrying the children disperse.
The green-headed, red-feathered parrot standing on the man's shoulder muttered, "I always feel like something is wrong. Is the atmosphere in Xijing a little too weird lately?"
Xiao Ling stepped on the shoulders under his feet and said, "Hero! What do you think? Did those monsters scare my believers?"
Chu Songjun pressed down the brim of his hat, carried the scroll behind him, and walked after the departing carriage.
Xiao Ling suddenly felt empty under him, and he quickly flapped his wings that had not been used for a while. The carriage of the noble family left, and the people who had been hiding in the alleys walked out from the shadows and looked at the backs of the noble family.
Xiao Ling's wings froze.
Even a dull god could see from those silent faces countless complex emotions: hatred, desire, envy... and fear.
It seemed as if something was floating out of their bodies and spreading towards the sky.
“Puff——”
The parrot's body fell to the ground, making Xiao Ling dizzy. He looked carefully but saw nothing. He rubbed his wrinkled head feathers and realized that his believer had gone far away. He quickly flapped his wings and chased after him.
The noble family's carriage team drove into a small courtyard recklessly.
The butler in the leading carriage lifted the door curtain and stepped down. He was of plump build, dressed in rich clothes, with rough fat wrapped around his waist, trembling with his breathing. The butler was wrapped tightly, and the beard on his face was extremely neatly groomed.
Xiao Ling couldn't help but sigh in Chu Songjun's ear: "Is this the family of nobles? They are really different in every way!"
Chu Songjun paused and said, "This man is from the Situ family. They went to buy slaves today."
Ever since Chu Songjun learned his lesson from Xie's, he has paid special attention to this kind of invisible transactions that will not be recorded in the books.
In Chu Songjun's impression, the secret skills of the Situ family are the enhancement of abilities after the facial features are transformed.
Groups of people were driven off the carriages like sheep being driven by a shepherd and into Situ's courtyard.
Chu Songjun climbed in skillfully.
The person in charge of purchasing people this time was the leading steward. The first thing he did when he brought everyone into the villa was to fill the kitchen with sufficient food. Facing the food, the steward first used a stick to establish his authority and restrain the behavior of everyone, and then immediately gave them a candied date so that they could eat to their heart's content.
Once you enter the Situ family, the hard days of the past will never come back, and everything will start over again.
There wasn't any big fish or meat in the meal, but there was plenty of dry rice, and with a little oil, it was very enjoyable to eat.
The butler sat at the top, looking at the people below with a smile on his face. His thick fingers were twisting the walnuts in his hands, making them smooth and delicate. It was obvious that he was an old hand and was now very skilled in the process.
Xiao Ling couldn't help swallowing his saliva as he looked at the people eating below the stage. Just as he was savoring his food, he suddenly noticed a fierce ghost crawling out from Chu Songjun's shadow. He exchanged glances with Chu Songjun for a moment, then left quietly.
Xiao Ling couldn't help but feel curious: "Hero, where is he going?"
Chu Songjun looked at the harmonious scene in front of him, his profile calm and composed, his tone steady and firm: "Report to the Dali Temple, there is a beast disaster here."
Xiao Ling: “?”
Huh? Where?
