Longevity begins with slaying demons and eliminating demons

Chapter 30 Fatal Strike

Facing the sudden change in the restaurant, Ma Qin's whole body was tense.

During the conversation with Gu Xu just now, he had already realized that this Taoyuan Town was essentially a ghost town.

On the one hand, there are taboos everywhere in the buildings here, which leads to the gathering of gloomy spirits - not suitable for human beings to live in, but it is a paradise for ghosts to live in.

On the other hand, the food sold in the restaurant are all common offerings in sacrifices - in this case, all the people in the restaurant, the diners, and the clerks, can't be alive.

Now, these ghosts are finally going to attack the two outsiders.

Machin was already prepared for this.

When the shop owner was about to slash at the two with a butchering knife, he decided to strike first.

Although Ma Qin now has no hope of competing for the official position, he believes that the big men from the capital are still observing his performance outside the illusion.

It's just that he is slightly inferior to Gu Xu in solving puzzles and cases - after all, young people's minds are always better than his.

If he had to hide behind Gu Xu even in battle, then the big man from the capital would probably treat him as a waste who would only eat and wait to die, and it would be difficult for him to have a chance for promotion in the future.

Therefore, it is very necessary to seize the opportunity to show your ability.

Thinking of this, Ma Qin suddenly stood up, pushed the table away, clenched his fists, and smashed the shopkeeper with a pig-killing knife and a strange smile.

"Rock Fist".

This is a low-grade martial arts practiced by Ma Qin, worth [-] meritorious deeds.

Although Ma Qin is best at swordsmanship, on many special occasions, he cannot carry a saber with him.So he had specially exchanged a boxing technique for self-defense.

That's where it comes in handy.

I saw his fist, along with the entire arm, gradually transform into a hard stone.Behind him, a phantom of a hill also appeared.

"boom!"

At the moment when the stone fist and the butchering knife made contact, the clanging sound of the impact of gold and stone resounded throughout the restaurant.

Afterwards, there were conspicuous cracks on the pig-killing knife in the shop owner's hand - as if it had become a thin and brittle ceramic, and it shattered to the ground.

At this moment, Gu Xu felt the majestic power contained in Ma Qin's fist.

That is the profound essence possessed by monks in the second realm.

"I don't know if I will have such a powerful power after my realm breakthrough." Gu Xu thought to himself.

But the ghosts obviously won't stop there.

Seeing that the pig-killing knife was broken, the shop owner threw the bare handle on the ground, picked up the cane in hand, and smashed it hard at Ma Qin's head.

The little servants around were not to be outdone—they held pots and pans, knives, forks, and tableware nearby, and swarmed towards Ma Qin and surrounded him.

The diners in the restaurant stood up one after another, smashing the tableware and food on the table at Ma Qin, while cheering for the clerks, as if they were enjoying a wonderful performance.

Under such circumstances, Ma Qin secretly cursed in his heart: These ghosts can't beat me one-on-one, so they directly fight in groups, which is really immoral!

Although "Rock Fist" has integrated offense and defense, and has significant destructive power, it can make Ma Qin invincible in one-on-one fights, but after all, it only has the ability to attack with a single target and cannot cause area damage.

This means that it is still very difficult for Ma Qin to fight more than ten ghosts at the same time and avoid the dishes thrown by the diners.

He has completely rocked both arms with "Rock Fist" - his wishful thinking is: as long as I am durable enough to withstand attacks from all directions, these ghosts can't beat me, I can knock them out solved one by one.

However, at this moment, a spoiled egg flew from nowhere and hit Ma Qin's head accurately - if nothing else, this should also be an offering that has been placed in front of the tomb for many years.

Egg whites mixed with egg yolks ran down Machin's cheeks, exuding a pungent stench.

The ghosts in the restaurant let out a sinister roar of laughter in unison.

The lethality is not high, and the insult is extremely strong!
Machin was instantly furious.

"Brother Gu Xian, aren't you going to take action yet?" he shouted to Gu Xu who was sitting beside the dining table.

At this moment, Ma Qin has given up the idea of ​​being brave.

And in the dark, he has an inexplicable confidence in Gu Xu - for some reason, maybe it is because Gu Xu has always been calm and confident after entering the illusion, even if Gu Xu's cultivation level is lower than him. In a big realm, he also felt that Gu Xu should have a way to deal with this room full of ghosts.

I saw Gu Xu grinning at the corner of his mouth, his eyes fixed, and he said to him in a relaxed tone: "Brother Ma, don't panic! Everything is on me!"

Then Gu Xuyou stood up, glanced around the ghosts in the house, and said politely:
"The folks of Taoyuan Town, thank you very much for your hospitality today. The food and wine here exudes a tempting smell, which makes me feel a kind of intimate feeling.

"Only now, I have to say 'sorry' to you. From now on, this welcoming restaurant will no longer exist."

As soon as the words fell, the ghosts who had surrounded Ma Qin suddenly looked at him in unison, their eyes greedy, cold, and sinister, if there was any substance.

But Gu Xu still looked calm and uneasy.

"Have you heard of the 'Tai Shang North Pole Suppression Demon Killing Talisman'?" He chuckled, paused for a few seconds, and then continued, "It's okay if you haven't heard of it.

"Now the stage is set up. You'll soon be able to appreciate its wonderful splendor."

Hearing these words, Ma Qin felt a little puzzled.

He knew that Gu Xu was a master of talismans.

But the illusion in this pot is a world of divine consciousness, and weapons, including runes, cannot be brought in.

During the period after entering the illusion, Gu Xu had no pen and paper in his hand, and it was impossible to draw symbols temporarily.

So where did the 'killing talisman' he said come from?
Could it be that Gu Xu was able to conjure up a prison for suppressing evil spirits out of thin air, using the heaven and earth as the paper and the real essence as the ink, like the Great Qi National Teacher?

But after counting the breath, Ma Qin knew the answer.

He heard Gu Xu chanting the familiar "Ghost Exorcism Mantra" softly: "Five stars control the color, illuminate the mysterious world. Thousands of gods and holy spirits, protect my true spirit..."

He saw that under the floor of the room, a dazzling light penetrated out, as if golden ink was flowing on the rice paper, sketching out complex, mysterious, and uniquely beautiful runes one after another.

Like a thunderbolt resounding through my mind.

Ma Qin opened his mouth wide and slapped his thigh with his right hand.

Spilled cinnamon wine!
It turns out that this is the crux of the problem!
It turns out that when Gu Xu entered the restaurant, he had already conceived a strategy to deal with ghosts!

It turned out that his long-lasting patience was just to prepare for this fatal blow!
