The rising sun shatters the darkness!

Chapter 428 Weird Buddhist Characters and Birthplace (asking for monthly tickets)

Three seconds later.

Xu Shu, who was supposed to return to the first floor and reunite with his teammates, suddenly stopped.

He looked towards the corner, at the mermaid who had been plucked off and thrown aside, looking a little wilted.

"Wow, I almost forgot about you." Xu Shu's mouth twitched and he muttered to himself with a hint of amusement.

The mermaid didn't smile.

This "half-step soul" that was infected by the Buddha nature turned over and slowly climbed up.

Because she had no arms, it was of little use for her to wave the two fins on her upper body. She could only rely on her thin and weak legs and waist for support, twisting around on the ground with great effort.

Even then, it was difficult to stand up.

She was extremely helpless and looked like a poor woman who had been abandoned by someone.

After a minute of hard work, the mermaid finally changed from lying sideways to a kneeling position.

She maintained this rather vivid posture of "mang" or "orz", and looked at Xu Shu with resentment through her dead fish eyes, her mouth opening and closing, uttering one word after another:

"Unfaithful man..."

"Unfaithful man~"

"Die, you unfaithful man!!!"

Amidst the cold and angry curses, the fishman suddenly exerted force with his legs and flew into the air!

Steam sizzled from her entire upper body, and her scales changed from their original blue-green color to blood-red crystals, like a red-hot iron, turning outward one by one, revealing their sharp edges!

Zizzi~
A sharp breath rushed towards him, and wherever it went, the steel bars were easily cut, and even the air made an exploding sound.

Moreover, this concealed some kind of martial arts truth, which made Xu Shu feel that he would be hit no matter how he dodged.

It was as if the surroundings were covered by invisible sharp edges, and even the space could be cut off!

"Huh? Mermaids can do martial arts... But why does this move look familiar? I think I've seen it somewhere before?"

Xu Shu was slightly stunned. He couldn't remember anything at once and had to give up thinking.

As for the reason why the mermaid attacked him, he knew it clearly.

Xie Xiaochan mentioned before that "Man" is a disposable tool. Once it is separated from the combined state, it will go into a rampage state and attack the object that once ran towards great harmony with her.

only……

"But why does she continue to attack me?"

"She looked very happy just now, and she was enjoying it!"

"Logically, shouldn't she have special feelings for me, treat me specially, and let me go?"

Even if there were ten thousand sharp blades flying towards him and his retreat was blocked, Xu Shu still thought inwardly with great annoyance.

【? 】

[God damn it, this is what you care about when you are about to die? You are crazy! ]

[However, your idea is very interesting. It seems to be an illusion caused by the Minotaur who has seen it too much. Taichujuan has corrected it for you:
[The sewer is the fastest way to a girl's heart, but this trick doesn't work on the mermaid in the sewer because she is a fish.]

[Everyone is treated equally in front of this mermaid. 】

[Either kill or be killed, there is no other choice. 】

[Now——shameless scumbag, accept the judgment of the Yuanshen! ]

Amidst the lines of illusory text, the mermaid furiously stepped on Xu Shu's face and hit him directly with his body.

The red scales blocked the void, making a buzzing sound, as if in the next second, Xu Shu would be completely cut into a human stick!

Facing such a deadly attack, Xu Shu narrowed his eyes and said, "Oh, I'll choose the third way and kill it!"

He shook himself, turned invisible, and began to spin wildly around the mermaid.

Not only did it avoid all the sharp blades, but after circling two and a half circles, it appeared behind the mermaid and hit her hard with its shoulders and hips.

boom!
This is Xu Shu's great combination of "Wearing Nine and Walking One" and "Gonggong Touching the Mountain"!

Under the bombardment of the Iron Backbone, the mermaid's upper body, along with several walls behind her, were blown into pieces.

Only a pair of attractive beautiful legs were left there, as if they had taken root in the ground, spurting blood.

However, Xu Shu, who succeeded in his attack, was not careless.

Not to mention that he had just experienced the various special features of the mermaid and knew that this thing was quite terrifying and could easily devour the "Queyin" clone.

Just the two words "primordial spirit" are not to be underestimated.

It is absolutely impossible to kill a mermaid in a rampage state so easily!
As expected, the legs on the ground kept spurting blood, and the blood turned into countless strange buzzing octopuses, which climbed onto Xu Shu and started biting him with their mouths.

Xu Shu was well prepared. His body was shining with golden light, and he used the "Jingwei Filling the Sea" with amazing defensive power.

The shield was quickly bitten off with the sound of clanging.

These little octopuses seemed to be more ferocious than before when they were running wild. They wanted to completely devour Xu Shu like ants devouring elephants.

Even the golden shield of Jingwei filling the sea couldn't withstand the gnawing, let alone a flesh and blood body?
If an ordinary dragon or elephant encountered this situation, it would probably have to flee in panic.

However, Xu Shu was different.

As a "legendary" dragon elephant with 11 skills of 11+5+27, he has many tricks.

Seeing that his first move was not enough, Xu Shu used another move, and with a loud bang, his whole body was on fire - "The killing intent was burning"!
"Little thing, you are courting death by using this trick against me!"

Xu Shu smiled arrogantly, urging his killing intent. The flames surged, burning the little octopuses with a sizzling sound. One by one, they fell to the ground and turned into grilled squids.

However, the next second, the grilled squids scattered and turned into dark spells, rushing towards the mermaid's corpse and those seductive long legs!
They drilled in through the bloody cut, one by one.

It was as if something was constantly beating and condensing inside, ready to burst out!

It seemed to be turning into two words. Roughly speaking, one of them seemed to be "八" and the other one was "尺"!
"Humph, gathering your strength in front of me?!"

Xu Shu glared, and without saying a word, he threw out an extremely blazing spear of light, covering the mermaid's lower body.

This is the second stage of Kuafu's unique skill of chasing the sun, the Sun-Chasing Golden Spear!

Just now, Xu Shu rushed to work, but it was not without purpose. Instead, while cleaning up the "Queyin", he took the opportunity to condense a complete posture of the Sun-Chasing Golden Spear.

At this moment, the golden spear came out and everyone was invincible!
With a loud "boom", the entire second floor of the bar was destroyed in an instant.

The buildings that could withstand the earthquake without collapsing were reduced to dust by Xu Shu's brute force.

Without a support under his feet, Xu Shu fell from the second floor to the first floor along with a large amount of falling sand and gravel.

"Holy shit, what's going on!"

"Where's Xu Shu?"

"Be careful, there's an enemy attack!"

Not far away, Xie Xiaochan and others, faced with this inexplicable huge explosion, suddenly felt like they were facing a formidable enemy.

They all used their skills. Some threw out talismans that covered their bodies with golden light. Some waved their hands and shattered all the falling rocks with a knife. Others quietly stepped back half a step and protected everyone in front of them. It can be said that each of them showed their magical powers.

Under the operation of this group of third-level masters, the smoke and dust at the scene were swept away in an instant, revealing Xu Shu who had fallen not far away.

Revealed on the ground was a pair of seductive legs and the body of a fat fish that had been blown to ashes but were still constantly regrouping and recovering rapidly.

"Why is it so hard to kill..." Xu Shu couldn't help but touch his chin, feeling a little tricky.

Regardless of how powerful this half-step soul is, its vitality is a bit too strong, isn’t it?
Even if the Demon God's Chosen One, who is known for his strong physical body, is doomed to die if he is turned into this state.

But the remnant of this "primordial spirit", which has obviously been "reduced to ashes", is still immortal and is still "resurrecting"!
Are you kidding me?
It actually has such a buggy ability?
This thing's realm doesn't seem to be very high, probably just over the second level, but it's already so difficult to deal with.

What would happen if I encountered a third-level mermaid?

Xu Shu frowned.

The other teammates came over one after another.

"Xu Shu, what did you do? Why did you make such a loud noise?" Xie Xiaochan asked bluntly.

Although the others were not as straightforward as her, they all looked at Xu Shu with puzzled eyes, full of doubts.

Xu Shu spread his hands and said honestly: "I'm trying to kill this mermaid, but as you can see, she seems to be... an immortal monster."

As he said this, Xu Shu stepped hard twice on the beautiful legs that were almost formed, crushing the mermaid who was already half-assembled and began to make strange creaking sounds.

"Forehead……"

Seeing this, everyone looked at each other, and no one spoke.

However, they all saw strange expressions in each other's eyes. "What's wrong? Is there any problem?" Xu Shu keenly noticed that everyone seemed to be trying to hold back their laughter.

Xie Xiaochan stepped forward and said, "I thought you were up to something, haha, you can't kill Mang like this, this thing is just like the corpse spirit and curse spirit, it also has the characteristic of being immortal."

"Is it?"

Xu Shu suddenly realized it, but thought to himself, the corpse spirit is not an undead monster in front of me, so I think I can deal with it with the cursed spirit that is also restrained by the soul.

Only this half-step soul is really disgusting.

I don't know if I can use the Narrow-sleeved Guanyin to swallow it?

Unfortunately, it is not convenient to reveal my cards in public...

Xu Shu silently regretted that he shouldn't have used so much force just now, but then he changed his mind and thought that the little jade Buddha didn't seem to have any interest in the mermaid, so he felt relieved.

At this time, the boatman Ning Zhaoxuan had already stood out from the crowd.

"Brother Xu, let me deal with this kind of stuff." Ning Zhaoxuan said politely.

He did not have the deep friendship that Xie Xiaochan and Xu Shu had, so he naturally did not dare to speak rudely to this master on the human list.

Without saying anything, the "Soul Catcher" had already struck a pose, sitting cross-legged on the ground, muttering some inaudible local slang:
"qimini, amrta, avansi..."

As Ning Zhaoxuan chanted, Xu Shu was surprised to find that the mermaid, whom he could not kill no matter how hard he tried, gradually calmed down amid the chanting.

She was no longer raging, no longer angry, and no longer resurrecting.

Ning Zhaoxuan's words were like a sleeping spell, making the mermaid gradually fall asleep, and along the invisible waterway in the air, she seemed to be sinking and dying.

She is literally dying!
"Strange, what on earth are you doing? Why do you all seem to know, and I'm the only one kept in the dark?"

Xu Shu couldn't help it any longer, so he pulled Xie Xiaochan to a small corner nearby and questioned her harshly.

"Hehe, do you want to know? Call me sister and let me listen!" Xie Xiaochan raised her neck and looked at Xu Shu teasingly.

"Sister Chan, just tell me!"

"I knew you didn't know." Xie Xiaochan smiled and pointed at Ning Zhaoxuan and said, "Corpse spirits and cursed spirits can only be devoured and killed by 'mang', but 'mang' will run wild, and to kill them, you must perform a ritual of salvation. As you can see, Ning Zhaoxuan is in the ritual of salvation.

Save this mermaid."

"Sacrifice for the soul? Isn't salvation for the soul something that Buddhist practitioners do?" Xu Shu was a little confused.

Xie Xiaochan said, "You are talking about the old calendar. In this era, of course, the three ghost families have this ability. Both corpse drivers and ferrymen can save the souls of the 'Man', so these two professions are a must in the Night Parade of One Hundred Ghosts. Of course, ferrymen can be boatmen, so ferrymen are more popular."

"There is such a thing..."

Xu Shu's eyes rolled around and he couldn't help but look at the small jade Buddha.

Since the "half-step soul" can be liberated, will the little jade Buddha be liberated as well?
Could it be that the "primordial spirit" is actually something like the soul of the dead?
The feeling is completely different. If I have to say the ghost, then "Yin Shen" is obviously more accurate. For example, my own third-level spell has a "Yin Shen" skill that allows the soul to leave the body.

Well, I feel that this salvation is not the traditional salvation, there must be other reasons! Xu Shu did not think much about it, but suddenly caught a blind spot in Xie Xiaochan and asked: "Wait a minute, isn't it the three ghost families? Why can only the ferryman and the corpse driver save the mermaid? Why can't the psychic?"

Xie Xiaochan shook her head: "How should I know this? This is all the information about the ruins that has been gradually researched in the past month. I paid for it, and if I tell you now, you will be taking advantage of me for nothing."

"Relic information?"

Xu Shu smacked his lips and then realized that he had indeed seen someone selling something on the Shengge network, shouting out something like [The Latest Guide to the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons].

It's just that he has never bought it before. This time it's not because he is poor, but because he feels that the world where the remains of "One Hundred Demons Night Parade" are located is the world transformed by his own legend twice.

Both the "Superman" Kamiya Ichiru and the "Spirit King" Arthur have fought in this world for many years.

Logically speaking, the person who knows this relic best should be me!

But who knew that, although the map in the ruins had not changed, some old friends from the legend had indeed reappeared in strange guises, and as a result, some inexplicable things had appeared?

This can only be said to be a loophole. It seems that if I enter similar ruins in the future, I can't be so confident...

Xu Shu complained in his heart, looked over there and saw that Ning Zhaoxuan's salvation was almost completed, and hurriedly whispered: "Oh, by the way, there is one more thing. I just fought with Mang and found that two very strange words appeared on her body during the battle. They seemed to be 'eight' and 'chi'. Do you have any clue about this?"

He finished speaking mysteriously, but Xie Xiaochan nodded and said nonchalantly: "So it's 'Eight Feet'? Second-order Mane, not weak, but quite common."

Upon hearing this, Xu Shu's eyes suddenly lit up and he asked, "Is there any trick here?"

“Yes, all ‘Man’s’ bodies have this strange word imprinted on them. They can be sold for money. You will be able to see it emerge after they are liberated.

"The material of these characters looks like gold foil or wood. I don't know their specific use, but Buddhists are buying them. Some rare characters are not cheap. Common ones like Ba, Chi, Ye, Gan, etc. cost about 100,000 yuan each. Rare ones can cost millions. For example, a sister of mine got the character 'Ti' and it was snapped up for 2 million yuan."

Xu Shu narrowed his eyes and said, "Uh, this is actually true? Why haven't I seen it on the Shengge network?"

He appeared surprised, but in his heart he thought, it seems that the Buddhists do know more secrets.

They must know that mermaids are monsters contaminated by Buddha nature!

So, these words are actually some kind of manifestation of "Buddha nature"?

I don’t know what these words mean specifically.

Haha, so you think you’ve made a profit with just a few hundred thousand or two million?

This is something related to the Buddha nature of "Yuan Shen·Yanbu". Who knows how many secrets it contains. It cannot be measured by money at all.

Monks look honest, but they are actually very smart...

Xu Shu glanced at Xie Xiaochan, thought for a moment and said, "Sister Chan, I'm very curious about this thing. Can you give me the two words later? I can pay for it."

"Why do you want this? It can't be used as a supernatural material, and the Buddhist sect has set a strict price, so you can't make any profit from the difference." Xie Xiaochan said curiously.

Xu Shu insisted: "I'm just curious. It's not expensive anyway."

Xie Xiaochan said: "Okay, then you wait."

As she spoke, she shook her twin ponytails and skipped into the crowd.

At this time, Ning Zhaoxuan had completed the salvation, and the mermaid at the scene completely disappeared without a trace, leaving only a clear water stain and two light golden words.

Xie Xiaochan said something to her teammates, then took the two characters back and stuffed them into Xu Shu's pockets: "Here, everyone agrees to give it to you directly."

"Thank you very much." Xu Shu accepted it without any hesitation, and was not polite at all - Xie Xiaochan had already said that this copybook only sold for hundreds of thousands of yuan on the market. As a third-level master, if he was still grateful for such a small thing, it would arouse suspicion.

He took the copy of the calligraphy, rubbed it a few times, and felt that it was slightly rough to the touch, like paper but not paper. It could not be torn, burned or soaked, which was quite strange.

However, this time, given enough time to observe, the two characters "八" (eight) and "尺" (foot) are clearly recognizable, and they don't look like children's graffiti.

Xu Shu suspected that this must not be a simple literal meaning, and perhaps it should be interpreted together with other words.

This was not the place to study this, so he stuffed the copybook into his storage bag and said calmly, "Let's go."

Although a mermaid was saved and a group of "corpse spirits" were killed, no one asked Xu Shu about the spoils.

The reason is simple, because everyone knows based on past experience that there will be no spoils.

The "corpse essence" will not drop anything, and the golden words in the mermaid's body are not of high value, so it is naturally not worth mentioning.

Everyone knew that the real "Queyin" had been taken into Xu Shu's possession and completely digested.

At that moment, after the monster in front of them was eliminated, everyone discussed and set off immediately.

The main purpose of this relic is still the special trigger in Xie Xiaochan's hand.

In the previous legend of Xu Shu, he personally experienced that legend with Xie Xiaochan and knew that this thing was half of the magic sword "Cunzhi".

The other half is in the body of that special evil spirit 'Yin Shen·Love'.

That Yin God was an old acquaintance, a peak third-order Yin King, Qi Lixiang!

Back then, when Xu Shu was in [The Ruins of the Dead], "Arthur" had fought with the other party, and in the end they ended in a draw, with neither of them being able to do anything to the other.

At this moment, after a little planning, everyone formed a team and left the bar, heading towards a marked point in the north on the map.

——Of course, this is the purpose of the teammates.

As for Xu Shu, his primary goal, of course, is to try to connect to his two beacons.

According to memory, the first source landmark "Kamiya Ichiru" and the second source landmark "Arthur" are both in this relic.

Although both "I"s have died in the legend, this does not prevent Xu Shu from recycling them, such as Wang Teng.

It doesn’t matter if you die in the legend, you can still reappear in the ruins!
Thinking of this, Xu Shu and others crossed the street.

Suddenly, in the dim night, Xu Shu said, "Wait a minute."

"What's wrong?" Everyone stopped one by one.

Xu Shu did not say anything, but looked across the street at a group of buildings with black clouds and crows circling above them. It was obviously quite evil and dangerous.

He licked his lips.

Xu Shu was very familiar with this place.

This is the hospital where he was born!
