The Dharma Sea of ​​the Green Snake

Chapter 5 The Revolving Lantern of Death

"Damn, careless!"

When the bone-chilling chill spread from his arms to his whole body, Pei Wende, who always regarded himself as "civilized", couldn't help but swear in the "ancient version".

Pei Wende never dreamed that this damn ghost could actually "freeze" itself in this way.

Ordinary people who are not in good health will catch a cold for several days if they are splashed with cold water.

Not to mention the sudden drop in body temperature caused by Yin Qi directly invading into the blood like I am now.

Bang!
Feeling that the roots of his teeth were getting cold, Pei Wende resisted the cold, and once again slammed the head hammer into the ghost, intending to make the opponent loosen his teeth.

"Evil ghost! Let go!"

Head hammer after hammer hit the ghost's face one after another, but he still couldn't make the opponent let go.

On the other hand, Pei Wende himself lost his strength due to the yin energy that gradually penetrated into the bone marrow, and the strength of the head hammer was also decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

But after a short time, Pei Wende could no longer continue to capture the ghost, and watched helplessly as the opponent broke free from his shackles.

Fortunately, the ghost is not harmless, forcibly using its own yin qi to extinguish the blood, it also suffers the backlash of yang qi.

After all, under normal circumstances, ghosts are only responsible for deceiving or catching pedestrians, and the one who is really entitled to enjoy the blood of their hearts is the evil spirit behind it.

"Xiangsheng, it seems that the victory and defeat between us have already been divided."

After confirming that Pei Wende lost the ability to resist, the ghost finally let go of his teeth, and a ferocious smile appeared on that blue-gray ghost face.

It's just that it obviously doesn't feel very good, and Pei Wende's blood is far beyond its imagination.

If it continues, the ghost is not sure whether it will be Pei Wende or himself who will die.

Therefore, even though it was not certain whether Pei Wende had really completely lost the ability to resist, the ghost had no choice but to let go of him.

"..."

He didn't respond positively to the ghost, even if the situation was extremely critical, Pei Wende never gave up his plan to save himself, and his mind was still running fast.

[I knew that even if the old monk was unwilling, he would have to call him to learn some methods of subjugating demons! 】

Not to mention the annoyance and unwillingness in Pei Wende's heart at the moment, seeing the other party fall into such a desperate situation, but never showing the slightest sign of timidity, the ghost could not help but curse secretly.

[Isn't this guy stupid?Why is he so courageous? 】

As a ghost that aids evil, the evil behind it needs "blood food", but all it needs is the fear of people's hearts.

Although compared with the serious "blood food", the fear of human beings before death is not even the residue of food, but the ghost knows that it is the only "food" he can get.

Therefore, this is also the reason why ghosts try their best to scare those pedestrians who are deceived by themselves.

However, this time it ran into an outlier like Pei Wende.

Apart from the initial panic, the ghost didn't feel much fear from the opponent at all.

"Stupid and bold, I hope you will still have the courage you have now after seeing 'it'."

Not wanting to call out "Young students" anymore, the ghost looked around, and after making sure that no one had noticed what happened on this remote path, he stretched out his hand and planned to drag Pei Wende away.

However, when the ghost reached out and grabbed the collar of Pei Wende's chest, a surprising scene happened.

tumultuous!
A dazzling golden light shot out from Pei Wende's heart without warning, and then shone straight on the ghost who was caught off guard.

"what!!!"

Illuminated by this sudden golden light, the ghost immediately wailed a hundred times more tragically than before, as if it had been splashed with acid.

The Yin Qi in the body was quickly dispelled, and hideous and terrifying wounds began to appear on the surface of the body...

In an instant, the originally ferocious and gloomy ghost turned into a bloody corpse, and its head fell directly from its neck to the ground.

Such a brief and horrifying scene shocked Pei Wende into a daze.

"How is this going?"

It is true that Pei Wende did not really lose the ability to resist, and the "weakness" just now was just pretending for the ghosts to see.

But he dared to swear to God, he was just thinking of finding an opportunity to sneak attack on the ghost, and he hadn't taken any actual action yet.

The golden light that "shot" the ghost just now was definitely not done by himself.

After all, if I had this ability, I wouldn't need to fight so hard with ghosts, and almost cost my life.

The most important thing was that after the golden light emanated from his heart, Pei Wende could clearly feel that his body was recovering rapidly.

tom!tom!tom!
The heart pulse that had been eroded by the yin qi started to beat again, and the body temperature that had plummeted also rose to a normal temperature...

With just one breath, Pei Wende completely recovered to the state before being eroded by Yin Qi.

Except for the clearly visible bite mark on his arm, judging from Pei Wende's current expression, there is no sign that he was almost "frozen to death" just now.

"Could it be that the old monk made a move?"

Slowly getting up from the ground, I saw Pei Wende clutching his heart in a daze, while involuntarily glanced at the ghost who had turned into a corpse.

By accident, Pei Wende walked towards the pile of bloody corpses.

Immediately afterwards, Pei Wende only felt a blur in front of his eyes, and a small rural village suddenly appeared in front of him.

"What is this place?"

This small village is not that big, probably less than ten families.

At first glance, it belongs to the kind of small village in the backcountry, and the annual harvest may not be able to meet its own consumption.

Once any natural disasters and man-made disasters occur, small villages like this often don't even have the slightest ability to resist risks, and will disappear directly on this piece of China.

"A hallucination?"

Frowning slightly, Pei Wende looked at the small village rather puzzled, a little unclear about the connection between this small village and the ghosts.

"Is this the ghost's memory?"

As a traveler from the 21st century, the well-informed Pei Wende quickly discerned the difference between this place and reality.

First of all, Wen Wende is just a bystander of this memory.

Apart from adjusting the perspective, he couldn't do anything that could affect this memory.

It's like a section of game CG that has been pre-set long ago. Players only have the right to "watch", and at best add a little immersive sense of presence.

Secondly, this memory is not a complete story, but similar to a revolving lantern before death, it will quickly flash through some impressive memory fragments during one's lifetime.

It's just that what Pei Wende sees now is not the revolving lantern of his own life, but the revolving lantern of the ghost's life.

Pei Wende didn't know why he saw a ghostly revolving lantern, he seriously suspected that it had something to do with the golden light emanating from his heart.

Or to be more precise, it seems to be related to Pei Wende's special perception ability.
