Showdown, I'm a train

Chapter 75 Overnight at the Dragon King Temple

The people who went to Qinglin County were naturally Su Qingqiu and Lingli.

And the coachman driving the carriage is Li Fugui.Since he didn't eat those bran cakes with Mozo's flesh and blood, his condition was not serious, so he was rescued by Su Qingqiu.

This time I came to Qinglin County, who was unfamiliar with the place, so I simply brought Li Fugui with me.After all, this guy used to be the county magistrate of Qinglin County, so he is more familiar with the situation here.

As for why He Lingli came here?
In fact, Su Qingqiu originally planned to use the magic pill to visit Qinglin County.But when he came out, he found that after absorbing the magic energy of the Swallowing Demon Snake, the Ni Lin on his body seemed to have changed, sucking in the magic pill and the huge magic energy in it.

In desperation, he could only condense a ray of spiritual light and turn into a little spirit snake to go.But the aura is rootless, and there is no such thing as a magic pill. If it condenses over such a long distance, even Su Qingqiu's aura of more than 2 years cannot afford to consume it.

However, just in time for the spirit ceremony to go out to experience and slay demons, Su Qingqiu pretended to be Ersha Lingguang, took the spirit ceremony as a carrying object, and went to Qinglin County together.

He is equivalent to first relying on Ersha himself, then relying on the spiritual ceremony, and finally let this ray of spiritual light snake communicate with the main body.

Although the process is a bit complicated, it is not as simple and convenient as manipulating the magic pill, but it is better than stability.

As for Er Shatong not agreeing to temporarily borrow it and Lingli's aura channel... If you beat him a few more times, you won't object.

However, the act of using the channel of spiritual light allowed Su Qingqiu to accidentally touch the spiritual energy between heaven and earth. This is a mysterious power that is very different from the spiritual light of spirit beasts. The mana cultivated by monks is a mixture of these spiritual energy Obtained from the spiritual light scattered by the spirit beast.

The spirit of the clear spirit and the aura of the spirit beast are mixed in different proportions, mixed with different ingredients, absorbed at different times, etc., thus deriving different human races, demon skills, spells, talismans, etc.

For example, the basic method practiced by the Yanglong Temple: the spirit snake method is formed by mixing the power of the Buddha with the aura of the spirit snake.

Therefore, it is not possible to simply compare the Taoism of the human race with the aura of the spirit beast.There are many human races who have practiced for a hundred years and killed a thousand-year-old monster.

But this time, with the help of Lingli and Ersha's spiritual light channel, he was able to see the pure spirit in the world, which is much more real than the eyes of the spirit snake.

It is of great benefit to Su Qingqiu's future development.After all, although the two races of human and spirit are two completely different paths of practice, there is only one way, and they will still lead to the same goal in the end. One day in the future, Su Qingqiu will also be involved in the study of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Several people continued on along the official road.

Going around, I passed many remote villages.

In these villages, the buildings have long since been deserted, the ruins and walls are covered with withered and yellow vegetation, and they look dead and silent.

The surrounding official roads were also covered with bones. Some wild dogs and beasts gnawed on these human bones in the official roads without fear, and the pedestrians passing by were not surprised by this.

"Hunger and death are everywhere, thousands of miles of dry soil, piles of bones, and endless deserted graves. The prosperity of Chiyang Prefecture is only limited to the area around Chiyang City and Yanglong Temple."

Su Qingqiu sighed secretly.

He had devoured countless demon bones and witnessed many evil scenes, but the scene in front of him still shocked him.

This severe drought has reached the point where Zhaoyang is about to perish.However, all the princes of the Dagon Dagon court, from the emperor and prince to the ordinary courtiers, did not respond at all.

Should I turn a blind eye, or... already know, but can't do anything about it?
The same is true for Lingli, this is the first time she has seen such a cruel scene, and for a while, she can't be surprised that Ersha can transform into a spiritual form.

Not only in the early years, there were also examples of the aura of the spirit snake leaving the abyss of the snake cave and condensing into form.

silent all the way

All the way north

The scenery he saw became more and more cruel, and the places he passed became more and more desolate.

Seeing that it was getting late and it was not suitable to drive at night in the desolate place, Li Fugui suggested: "Miss Bodhisattva, you will be at Qinglin Temple twenty or thirty miles ahead, but the villain suggests that you should take a rest tonight. It’s not too late to investigate.”

"Something went wrong in Qinglin Temple when I was in office. It is indeed extremely dangerous. It is said that there are big demons entrenched here. Especially at night, strangers should not get close. But it is relatively better during the day."

Hearing this, Lingli glanced at the spirit snake in his arms, and Su Qingqiu nodded indifferently.

It's good to take a rest, the scenery along the way is indeed a bit boring, and he is getting impatient.

Of course, the main reason is to travel at night, which is easy to attract evil spirits to follow.He was not afraid, the worst would be the loss of a ray of spiritual light.

But Lingli can't!
Although he had already cultivated to the seventh-rank realm, he was still strong in the face of such a desolate land full of monsters and demons.

What's more, the spiritual ceremony is still one of his carrying objects, and there is no room for loss.

After Lingli's consent, the carriage turned into a remote village next to the pipeline.

It's dark now
The entry of the carriage seems to have disturbed the aborigines here.Groups of bats sounded alarmed and began to dance around indiscriminately.

The bat's eyes were red, and the demonic energy on its body was lingering, and its already distorted face became even more barren.

"Not here, change to another place."

"These bats have been polluted by evil spirits, and have become evil. And there are a lot of them, let's move on."

Su Qingqiu opened his mouth and spat lightly, a sound of dragon chant emerged, and countless bats fell from the sky in an instant.

Li Fugui's expression changed, his body trembled, and then he quickly drove the carriage back to the official road.

"Miss, I didn't expect that there would be so many evil bats in Sanyang Village. Hey, Sanyang Village was still a large village back then...but now...hey!"

Li Fugui sighed continuously, feeling indescribably melancholy.But out of the corner of his eye, he vaguely looked at Su Qingqiu in Lingli's arms, and the look of fear disappeared in a flash.

Keep going
And in Sanyang Village behind him, a humanoid creature with red eyes flashed away.

……

In the end, they found a dilapidated Dragon King Temple and chose to stay overnight.

This Dragon King Temple is already on the verge of crumbling, the outer house has collapsed, and only the inner hall remains.

The Dragon King sculpture enshrined in the Dragon King Temple has long since disappeared, leaving only the dry yellow clay platform.

There were quite a few people in the temple, most of them were pedestrians on their way or refugees fleeing from disaster.

There are also a few ordinary warriors among them, who seem to be escort guards.

When everyone saw Lingli and Li Fugui, they were obviously taken aback.Some people looked at Lingli with a hint of greed.

However, no one got up to say hello, instead they gathered together and ignored each other.

In this world, people who can walk outside, even a humble refugee, may have the ability to protect themselves with one or two hands, so no one wants to cause more troubles.

In this way, the first half of the night passed by.

But in the middle of the night, the outside world didn't know why, suddenly there was a strong wind, and there was a rumbling thunder in an instant.

after a while

crackling~

A night of rain unexpectedly arrived.

In a year of severe drought, there is heavy rain!
If something goes wrong, there must be a demon!
This is not Yanglong Temple, there is no real dragon favor!
