I am collecting entries in reincarnation

Chapter 439 Dryad
In August, the autumn wind howled fiercely, and the wind blew through the broken temple like the howling of ghosts.

It was already late autumn, and the nights were even colder. Moreover, the yin energy gathered here, making it feel like winter. The only sound was the humming sound of the cold wind blowing through the holes in the dilapidated buildings.

But at this moment a voice broke the eerie silence.

"Help, help!"

Suddenly, bursts of shouting came from this dilapidated Zen room.

Li Ming frowned and looked up, only to see a young man in a tattered grey robe crawling out of what could almost be called a ruin.

The moonlight was bright tonight, and it wasn't too dark to see. The young man was running outside, and suddenly he saw Li Ming and the other two, and he shouted as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw.

"Help me, help me, there's a ghost!!"

At this time, Yan Tiannan suddenly sniffed and said, "This smell is not that of a tree demon."

"boom!"

Suddenly, there was a loud noise. It turned out that the already shaky and rotten wooden door of the room where the scholar was temporarily staying collapsed, and a phantom shot in from the door.

"Hey, hey, come and play. Didn't you have fun just now?"

Almost in an instant, the ghost caught up with the scholar.

Li Ming looked closely and saw that it was a female ghost with half of her face covered with rotten flesh.

Her body is elusive, half real and half unreal, with flying hair and fingernails half a foot long. You don't have to believe it, just by looking at her appearance, no one would believe you if you said she wasn't a female ghost.

Yan Tiannan immediately shouted, "I'm here, how can I allow you to harm others?"

After saying that, he bit his fingertips and flicked his fingers to let out a few drops of blood that dripped onto the female ghost. It was as if sulfuric acid was poured on her body, and bursts of white smoke immediately came out.

The female ghost also let out a shrill scream, rolled on the ground, and disappeared.

The young scholar finally breathed a sigh of relief, and with lingering fear, he patted his chest and said, "Thank you very much, thank you very much, hero."

Li Ming looked him up and down and said, "How come you, a scholar, are spending the night here alone?"

The young scholar sighed and said, "I was going to Jiaozhou to seek refuge with my relatives. When I got here, a thick fog arose for some reason, and I got separated from the others. It's getting late, and I'm afraid there are wolves, tigers and leopards in the wilderness. It's a pity that I'm only twenty years old. I can't carry anything on my shoulders or lift anything with my hands. Let alone a ferocious beast, I'm afraid even a pheasant or a hare would be able to bully me. I can only find a place to stay temporarily. I'll go down the mountain tomorrow and try to find other people. Who knows..."

"what's wrong?"

The young scholar covered his face and said, "I have been bewitched by ghosts and mistakenly believed in these lies."

Li Ming shook his head. It seemed that A Chinese Ghost Story had failed.

So he said, "This place is filled with yin energy and is full of demons and ghosts. You are neither good at martial arts nor at Taoism, so you'd better leave."

The young scholar now became stubborn again, puffing out his chest and saying, "Although I don't know any martial arts or any special skills, I have learned a lot from reading, and I have cultivated a great spirit in my heart!"

Li Ming shook his head helplessly, without saying much, and just walked forward.

Yan Tiannan chuckled and said, "Scholar, I just saved your life."

As she spoke, she placed her hand in front of the scholar and rubbed her thumb, index finger and middle finger together, looking filthy.

Although the scholar was a student, he was not ignorant of worldly affairs. He knew that this was a request for help, and his face flushed as he said, "I have nothing. All my wealth is in the caravan, but now..." Yan Tiannan's face immediately changed when he heard this, and he said coldly, "Poor guy, what a waste of time!"

Then he turned around and followed Li Ming's pace, and Shang He naturally followed closely behind.

The scholar looked up and saw the chiffon wind still blowing all around him. After this disaster, everything here was full of suspicion in his eyes. He gritted his teeth and shouted, "Wait for me!"

At least these three are human beings, so it is relatively safe to follow them. If I continue to wander around here, I am afraid I will die without knowing how I died.

After a few steps to the backyard, I saw a thick darkness suddenly emerging from all directions, rushing towards me with evil spirits.

Upon seeing this, Yan Tiannan made some hand gestures and stood in front of everyone, shouting loudly.

"The two yin and yang of Tai Chi create life, and the great righteousness calms the universe!"

After saying that, he sent out a hand seal, which was like a burning flame forming a Tai Chi diagram, and immediately made a sizzling sound when it fell into the black smoke.

However, the black gas was slightly blocked and immediately spread forward again.

Li Ming said, "Let me do it, tree demon, watch out!"

He immediately used his internal energy, and a golden light seemed to illuminate his entire body. He attacked left and right, without any apparent tricks, but simply used his powerful internal energy to strike towards the darkness.

All I heard were a few loud rumbling sounds, mixed with shrill screams.

The darkness faded away quickly, and with a gust of cold wind, an old woman with a dry face and dozens of little ghosts who looked like children and were dressed in gorgeous clothes was revealed.

"Little Taoist priest, is this the reinforcement you brought?"

The woman's tone of voice was always half masculine and half feminine, which was extremely irritating to the ears. It was obvious that she was the tree demon.

Li Ming laughed and said, "Trees don't have male or female, but they have A and B. A wood is strong and majestic, while a wood is delicate and weak. Either one of them would be considered the right way, but you chose to use the body of a wood to practice the method of a wood, and ended up with this weird appearance that's neither male nor female, neither male nor female!"

"Huh? You're looking for death!" The old woman had a look of anger on her face. She waved her sleeves and the wind roared violently, ghosts cried and wolves howled. The temple was filled with evil winds and dozens of vines extended from the soles of its feet and grew rapidly towards the four people.

Seeing this, Yan Tiannan quickly cut his fingertips with the sword, covering the sword with a layer of blood. Then he stood in front of everyone and performed a set of sword techniques with great force, cutting off all the dozens of vines.

The scholar was dumbfounded when he saw this. How could he have imagined that these three people were here to subdue demons? Seeing the ferociousness of the demons, he felt extremely regretful. If he had known this, he should have retreated quickly.

Yan Tiannan then said hurriedly: "This old demon has a deep cultivation base. His body cannot move, but he has cultivated a soul that is equivalent to a martial arts innate. Be careful!!"

"I know!" Li Ming smiled faintly, then looked at the old woman and shouted, "What a monster! I'll beat you up!"

He stepped hard and immediately a wave of air was created. Then Li Ming used his internal energy and his momentum was like a rainbow. A three-meter-long shadow appeared behind him, which looked like a furious King Kong.

"Fearless Lion Seal!"

Li Ming shouted and made a seal with his hands. The Vajra immediately turned into a lion statue. With a push from Li Ming, the lion rushed towards the tree monster with an extremely powerful momentum.

The scholar was so shocked by this that his jaw dropped. He said tremblingly, "A god descended to earth?"

Shang He said with stars in his eyes: "It's not a god, it's Buddha!"
