Chapter 178 Mountain Sword Mark

The old woman went crazy all of a sudden. She let out a strange scream and threw herself at Zhang Qingxiang desperately, grabbing Zhang Qingxiang's face with both hands and feet.

Zhang Qingxiang cursed "Idiot", and did not even need to use the [Tiger General's Spear]. He just moved forward with [Cut Life], and with a swish, the cracks on her body cut into her, cutting her into countless pieces again.

At the same time, Zhang Qingxiang rose into the air, and the tiger general's spear hit the mountain god statue with a bang.

A terrifying force burst out, the mountain god statue shattered, and a dark red ball of light emerged from it, expanded rapidly, and then exploded——

boom!
[Shield Leaf] appeared in front of Zhang Qingxiang, but it was torn apart by the dark red power visibly to the naked eye.

Zhang Qingxiang's whole body remained motionless, and a mountain of green light enveloped him.

Then Zhang Qingxiang was blasted straight away by this force, creating a big hole in the wall of the main room, and broke through three walls in a row, and he didn't know which room he fell into.

"Death -" The old woman's voice seemed to be out of breath, and her body was broken into countless pieces, each piece cursing Zhang Qingxiang.

In the yard outside, as the mountain god statue collapsed, all the villagers showed extremely angry and frightened expressions. They suddenly went crazy and killed Shi Fangjie regardless.

Zhang Qingxiang jumped up from the debris and rushed back to the main room at a faster speed, but he only had time to see a trace of dark red smoke, like a firebird and a ghost, floating up from the broken pieces of the statue. It rose to an altitude of dozens of feet, and then with a swish, fell towards the dark mountain in the distance.

Zhang Qingxiang raised the [Tiger General's Spear] and threw it vigorously, but still missed the kill and failed to catch up.

"Death!" The old woman's vicious curse sounded again, and the blood monster eyes outside the yard flew back, sucked up the old woman's fragments on the ground, and melted them into a basin-sized sphere, with dark red blooming in the middle. light——

Zhang Qingxiang impatiently raised the [Cut Life] and cut the thing into countless pieces again with a swish sound.

The dark red light dissipated instantly, and the "ultimate move" was interrupted before it was released.

The broken pieces of the old woman and the blood were scattered all over the ground. Zhang Qingxiang's ears moved slightly, and the [Tian Ting] secret technique was activated. Among the broken pieces and blood beads that were still squirming unwillingly, he accurately found the core piece.

Zhang Qingxiang put on the [Qianjun Stick] and hit it hard with the stick.

boom!
Unexpectedly, it failed to trigger a "critical hit". Zhang Qingxiang picked up the stick and smashed it several times. Finally, the core was completely shattered, and the old woman's voice could no longer be heard.

The fragments and blood beads on the ground finally dried up completely.

Shi Fangjie's voice came from outside: "Team leader, help -"

Zhang Qingxiang kicked open the coffin board, and Shi Fangjie was forced into a corner by the remaining seven or eight villagers - the villagers had turned into wolf-like monsters, with blood-red eyes and fangs exposed outside their lips, dripping His mouth was full of fishy odor, and he looked fierce as if he was afraid of tearing Shi Fangjie to pieces and eating him.

Zhang Qingxiang killed them all with one strike, and then he was free to deal with the "peerless sword" in the void cage.

According to Zhang Qingxiang's previous experience, this thing and the old woman should have a symbiotic relationship. If the old woman dies, or the peerless sword is destroyed, the other one will die accordingly.

But for some unknown reason, this one is still rushing around in the void cage.

Zhang Qingxiang's heart moved, he opened his void storage compartment, made a deal with the void cage, and put the peerless sword inside.

Then Zhang Qingxiang was cautious: he was afraid that the evil thing would destroy his empty storage compartment.

It would be a huge loss if that were the case.

It was Zhang Qingxiang who had his own "wrong thoughts". Could this thing bring out a mysterious scene?

Fortunately, the void storage compartment is different from the void cage. The space inside is stagnant.

This "peerless sword" was stagnated as soon as it entered.

Zhang Qingxiang secretly breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Shi Fangjie. The wound on his back had healed, and his mother's secret medicine was very effective.

However, Shi Fangjie's body was in tatters and his whole body was ashen and disgraced. He was as embarrassed as he wanted to be.

But Shi Fangjie was in a very excited state of mind, fighting side by side with the team leader for the first time, and my performance was pretty good... right? At least I helped the team leader rescue the hostages and contained these "little monsters" outside.

Zhang Qingxiang smiled and praised: "Well done."

Shi Fangjie's whole body was immediately filled with blood.

"Team leader, what should we do with these people?"

Zhang Qingxiang looked at the crowd. They were even more miserable than Shi Fangjie. The two glanced at the old woman in the main room and realized that they had been transformed into two corpses by the contamination.

"Let them hide here first, and you come with me to rescue the others."

The hostages were wailing. Zhang Qingxiang was too lazy to think about it and left them all to Shi Fangjie.

Zhang Qingxiang returned to the main room and wanted to check the rotten meat.

The old woman said that it was the flesh and blood of the mountain god, but when Zhang Qingxiang came back, the smelly meat that had been smashed to pieces by a gun, as well as the rotten fruit and pastry sacrifices, had completely decayed, and there was nothing abnormal about it.

"None of the dozens of houses in front have the flesh and blood of the mountain god."

"This family... has the most offerings and the most powerful swords ever made. Did the mountain god give them a special gift?"

Zhang Qingxiang guessed in his mind: "But what exactly is a mountain god? Why do you want the whole village to use human sacrifice to refine swords?"

"What benefits can the mountain god get from it?" "Most of the scenes involving gods are related to faith... But this scene doesn't feel right no matter how you look at it. I'm afraid it won't be that simple."

Zhang Qingxiang came out of the main room and looked at the huge black python-like mountain in the distance. He secretly thought that he had to go into the mountain, otherwise he would not be able to decipher this scene.

Shi Fangjie has appeased everyone, and these people all hold a sword in their hands.

They were "failed" works made by the villagers, and they did not meet the standards of a peerless sword. But these weapons gave them some psychological comfort.

Shi Fangjie came over and said, "Team leader, it's time to go."

Zhang Qingxiang nodded, brought Shi Fangjie out, and asked him: "Tell me everything about how you were dragged into the mysterious scene. Don't miss any details."

"Yes." Shi Fangjie agreed and recalled: "I followed Guan Tong into Ping An Hospital, and after just a few steps, a mystery came over me.

Then we fell into this village.

Different from those mysterious scenes in the past, all the buildings in the hospital disappeared, leaving only all the people.

As soon as I came in, I felt like I had been hit by some kind of force, which made me confused. When I regained consciousness, I found that the villagers were swarming me. Although they were skinny, they were extremely powerful. If anyone resisted, they would transform into wolves and quickly kill them. Everyone was subdued.

Well... there were about a hundred people in the hospital, and they were all caught.

I felt that I was invincible, and Captain Bear was still outside. I could wait for support, so I held back for the time being and pretended to be caught by them.

The villagers were very excited after catching someone, shouting "good material" and carried us home like piggies. "

"I don't know how long I can hide, but I set a limit for myself: as long as they really start killing people, I will take action regardless of whether they can be saved or not."

Zhang Qingxiang slapped him on the back of the head and secretly thought, this is how your kid died in the last life, right?

"I'm giving you an order." Zhang Qingxiang decided to get vaccinated first: "If you encounter similar situations in the future, don't force yourself to take action. If you can run away, run away by yourself!"

Shi Fangjie frowned: "Team leader, this..."

"This is an order!" Zhang Qing was tough, but Shi Fangjie still frowned, but this time he raised his head and faced Zhang Qing bravely: "Team leader, I dare not disobey.

But I want to ask you: If the team leader orders you like this, can you do it? "

Zhang Qingxiang opened his mouth to say yes, but was stuck in his throat.

Shi Fangjie smiled: "I guess that's it. So, team leader, don't make things difficult for me. I can't do this order."

Zhang Qingxiang never expected that Shi Fangjie was supposed to be vaccinated in advance, but instead he was vaccinated against it.

Boomerang.

Zhang Qingxiang made a serious mental assumption for himself: If you really encounter a similar situation, you must bear all the guilt and run away!

Never let yourself get involved.

The heaviest thing you carry is not a personal honor or disgrace - that thing is not worth mentioning to you!
Don’t forget!
Zhang Qingxiang exhaled a heavy breath before asking Shi Fangjie again: "Are there any unusual details in the whole process? Think about it carefully."

Shi Fangjie recalled it seriously and replied: "When I first woke up, I seemed to see a sword stuck in the mountains in the distance.

And the entire mountain was twisting and struggling. "

"It's like... how should I put it, the mountain is alive, nailed to the ground by that sword."

Zhang Qingxiang silently remembered: "Is there any more?"

Shi Fangjie slapped his forehead: "Also! In that courtyard, on the wall facing the mountain - the one on the west side, there are traces of a human figure next to the coffins.

It's a bit like... Team leader, have you ever seen those criminal investigation dramas? It's like the traces left behind when someone was burned to death on the wall in some arson cases!
Ever since I was captured, I always felt that the shadow was the most strange thing in the yard, because it seemed to be staring at us all the time.

But just now you asked me to block the door and when I went to kick those coffins, the ghost traces were gone! "

Shi Fangjie tried to think back: "Now that I think about it carefully, it seems that as soon as you showed up as the team leader... I never saw that trace again."

Zhang Qingxiang, the great sword in the mountain, is not surprised. It fits well with the "theme" that can be seen in this mysterious scene.

But this ghost trace... Zhang Qingxiang thought carefully about the dozens of houses he had rescued before, but he really couldn't remember them.

This thing is so inconspicuous that when you fight in, you can easily ignore it.

And according to what Shi Fangjie said, this weirdo was very alert and might have left as soon as he entered the yard.

While the two were communicating, they walked along the path in the village to the next house.

　The water pipe at home burst suddenly in the morning, and it took most of the day to repair it.

　　There is another one at night.
