Da Zaojun

Chapter 128: Zhu Baoli, the Messenger of Tantan
Because the pig demon was slaughtering the secret realm, Song Wuji and Chen Xiu did not encounter any major obstacles. At most, there were some pickled corpses and zombies covered in salt crystals.

"In my family, salt is used to ward off evil spirits." Chen Xiu shot a pickled corpse with an arrow and said casually, "Every time someone in another family passed away, my grandmother would have someone sprinkle a handful of salt on the doorstep and burn a broom facing the door to prevent the deceased from walking into the wrong house or offending the evil spirit."

"I didn't expect this salted corpse to produce zombies."

"That's normal. Zombies are usually pickled. Salt is used for preservation." Song Wuji was not surprised: "Those who sell illegal salt will hollow out the internal organs, hide the salt inside, and pretend to drive the corpses."

The two walked around the village but saw no trace of the pig demon, only a temple.

[Salt Mother Temple].

Song Wuji didn't know who the Salt Mother was, but she was definitely a salt god or something like that. Salt makers worshipped the Salt God and prayed for success in making salt.

The Salt Mother had an ugly face and looked like an old woman, but her neck was broken. She was holding a jar in her hand, which was filled with salt and emitted white light.

[Ritual Instrument: Salt Jar]
Song Wuji took down the salt treasure jar and checked its properties. He found that it was a device for storing salt and gathering spiritual energy. It could absorb spiritual energy, store it in the salt, and turn it into salt treasure.

Song Wuji happened to be in need of a salt shaker, so he said, "Lend me this to avenge you!"

But the statue of the Salt Mother shattered on the spot, and a Salt Mother flew out of it. It turned out that the salt mine is also a mine, and if it is a mine, there must be a Salt Mother. This Salt Mother is actually the spirit of the Salt Mother.

Chen Xiu pointed to the broken stele in front of the temple and said, "Here is the inscription on the temple's founding."

The two of them looked and saw that the inscription roughly stated that during the great famine that year, the ancestors of the Song family did not name this place Wild Boar Hill after seeing a wild boar licking salt, but rather saw an old woman scraping alkaline soil and boiling it into salt, so they began to make salt secretly. They worshipped the old woman as the Salt Mother, believing that it was the Salt Mother who appeared and gave them a way to survive, so they built a temple to worship her and settled here, hoping that the Salt Mother would always protect the people of Songjia Village.

In this way, the legend of Wild Boar Hill was actually spread out and informed to the government after the Song family could no longer keep the salt mine.

The Salt Mother is the master of this secret realm. In the secret realm, she guides the salt farmers to mine salt for generations in order to survive.

Song Wuji could already guess that after the great changes in heaven and earth, some common people mistakenly entered the secret realm and were killed by the pig demon, which awakened its wisdom. After awakening, the pig demon left the secret realm and went on a killing spree until it became a ninth-grade demon, opened a meat market, and returned to the secret realm to kill the Salt Mother...

Mother of salt is a fist-sized object similar to a gem. Once it falls to the ground, it will produce salt mines. When used to soak water, the water will turn into brine, and the mother of salt itself will not be consumed.

Just when he was relaxed, a sharp knife appeared from nowhere and stabbed Song Wuji. It was the pig demon.

But he looked ferocious, his body covered in salt armor: "You deserve to die!"

Finally revealed his real name

[Lord of the Salt Mountain, Salt Mother's mount, and the messenger of the Tantan, Zhu Baoli]

Wow, that’s a lot of titles!
Are Zhu Baolie and Zhu Ganglie related?
Even the prefixes of the two characters "Jingtan Shishi" and "Tantan Shishi" are so similar.

Moreover, Zhu Ganglie also seems to have made his fortune from a mount, and is the mount of the Western Lord Marichi.

It’s just a matter of one high configuration and one low configuration.

Song Wuji had been prepared for this and dodged calmly, calling out his name: "Zhu Baoli!"

The pig demon was confused for a while, shaking his head, and the next moment it turned into its original form, a wild boar as big as an elephant charging towards him!

This big wild boar is five or six zhang tall, thirty or forty zhang wide, seven or eight zhang long, and has six tusks. It seems to want to cosplay as a six-tusked white elephant.

It has a black mane, but it is covered with salt crystals, dyeing it white.

A fragment of glass relic was shining brightly between the eyebrows!
He roared, "Why? Why! I've been cautious enough. I just want to run my corpse-preserving business. Why are you trying to kill me?"

"They're asking for trouble! They stole salt, and the villagers mistook them for monsters, and offered them to me to eat!"

"I'm staying here fine, why did a weirdo come to the secret realm first and want to confer the title of Messenger Bodhisattva on me? What a bullshit destiny!"

"What tiger demon wants me to work with him?"

"Hahaha! I, Old Pig, will no longer let you guys push me around!"

The pig demon breathed heavily through its nostrils, and immediately its six fangs shot towards Song Wuji like six flying swords. As for Chen Xiu... the pig demon didn't take him seriously.

Song Wuji used the Tiger Soul double swords to push away the fangs, and felt an inexplicable huge force.

At the same time, the pig demon rushed over, like a rushing mountain.

Chen Xiu drew his bow and shot an arrow, but he couldn't break the salt crystal armor.

"The storm is rising!"

Song Wuji slashed with his sword, but the Tiger Soul Sword only cut through the salt crystals on the pig's body, penetrated three inches into the flesh, and could not cut any further when it reached the bones.

“Good meat!”

Song Wuji didn't expect that the pig demon would be so difficult to kill after revealing its true form.

However, compared with the tiger demon and the Luohu python, they were barely killed by luck. This was also the first time that Song Wuji confronted the demon head-on.

The pig demon felt pain and once again controlled its fangs to stab Song Wuji. At the same time, it raised its front hooves and used a "war trample" move, which shocked Song Wuji and made him lose his mind.

"We have to ride on this pig monster before we can do anything!"

Song Wuji flipped over like a nimble cat and leaped three times, dodging the fangs while commanding, "Chen Xiu, use the evil arrowheads you got from the Rakshasa Ghost Market and shoot him in the eyes! Or through the back door! Otherwise, you won't be able to break through his defense!"

"it is good!"

When the pig demon heard this, his anus suddenly tightened. In addition to being concerned about Song Wuji, he also paid more attention to Chen Xiu.

At this moment, Song Wuji split the fangs with a knife and used the stove fire method at the same time: "Thousands of families offer sacrifices to the stove!"

The stove fire has the ability to refine things, but the pig demon has a thick layer of salt armor all over his body.

"If only there were water to dissolve his salt!"

"That's right! Water!"

Song Wuji took out the real dragon scales and tried to inject magic power into them.

Suddenly, the dragon scales emitted a mysterious light, and thick clouds and mist began to spread around Song Wuji.

The salt on the pig demon's body suddenly became sticky after being contaminated by moisture.

"Escape!"

Seeing that the situation was disadvantageous to him, the pig demon decisively hid again.

Song Wuji also observed the situation for a while and ate a string of grilled fish balls to recover some of his energy.

"Be careful!" Song Wuji saw the bulge on the ground moving towards Chen Xiu and hurriedly reminded him.

But Chen Xiu bent his bow and shot three arrows at the incoming mound: "Shoot the tiger without a stone!"

The next moment, he jumped up and completed the arrow shooting in the air.

The pig demon rushed forward fiercely, but Song Wuji rushed forward and said, "White Tiger, kill instantly!"

The pig demon was shocked. He knew the tiger demon's unique skill, so he refused to face Song Wuji from behind. Instead, he used his six fangs to stab Song Wuji.

But Song Wuji's moves were all random shouting, just to disturb the pig monster with high intelligence. In fact, this move was a violent storm in the Wind Tiger Killing Fist. He swung out six swords in a row to knock down the fangs.
