I became a saint in the world of Liao Zhai, and flirted with monster girls

"I can't see anymore... I can't see anymore..."

He fell to the ground, groping around with his hands, trying to grab something, but he couldn't grab anything.

The other scholars stood aside, their lips moving slightly, as if they wanted to speak, but no words came out.

Are matters involving ghosts and gods really so dangerous?

Does karma really come true so quickly?

The classmate who was so arrogant and boastful just now suddenly became blind. The rapid change of fate was terrifying.

And all this was just because he touched the Book of Life and Death, which should not belong to mortals.

In the deep mountains and forests far away, Yu Niang and others had already been quietly paying attention to everything.

She watched coldly, sneering in her heart:

"Oh, such a fool, he actually dared to look through the Book of Life and Death? If it weren't for Zhou Lang's ruthlessness, he would have been killed long ago!"

She was even thinking about whether she should find an opportunity to throw this kid into the eighteen levels of hell and give him a good "training".

Unfortunately, my husband is too kind.

At this moment, the entire valley fell silent again.

The wind blew through the treetops, making a low whimper.

“Killing reduces your blessings!!!”

In the valley, fox corpses were scattered everywhere, and the bloody smell had not yet dissipated.

Several surviving scholars stood there, their faces pale and their expressions dazed, with a deep regret welling up in their hearts.

They were well-read people with ambitions for fame and fortune. How could they have imagined that they would be involved in such a bloody storm?

What does the life and death of the spirits have to do with them? All they want is to pass the imperial examinations and bring honor to their family!

But now, they have become participants in this massacre, even if they are just bystanders, even if their hands have never been stained with blood, but cause and effect are connected, and this account will eventually fall on their heads.

In return, all he got was a few days of fine wine and delicious food, a few nights of illusory pleasure in the land of tenderness, and the service of a few charming fox girls.

Compared with the possible ruin of one's career in the future, these enjoyments are simply not worth mentioning!

If they had known this would happen earlier, they would rather have never set foot in these green mountains!

It is said that the Dayu Dynasty is in chaos and may be approaching its end.

But so what?

They haven't even taken up official positions yet, haven't even enjoyed wealth and glory, so are they going to ruin their future because of a moment of confusion?

The end of the dynasty is too far away for them to see, but the prosperity and chaos of officialdom is right before their eyes!!!

Looking at the fox corpses all over the valley, the scholars' hearts turned cold.

This is the killing they caused, and the blame must be placed on them.

All he got in return for this massacre was a few days of service from a few beautiful fox girls and a few days of fine wine and delicious food, but compared with future achievements, this enjoyment was simply not worth mentioning.

Of course, if these scholars knew that the so-called beautiful fox girls they were talking about were actually fox spirits with magical powers who could transform into human forms, they would probably regret it so much that they would want to bang their heads against the wall and die.

Chapter 214 Finding Another Way

You know, in this valley, there are only four fox girls who can transform into human form and walk out of the mountains.

In addition to Lu'e and Fox Third Sister, there are two fox concubines around Zhou Liangjin.

The rest were either slaughtered to pieces or had already escaped without a trace.

"Master Zhou."

At this moment, Zhou Kao suddenly spoke, his tone was very tempting,

"I heard you have a royal destiny, blessed with great fortune. Perhaps... you could look through the Book of Life and Death."

When he said this, everyone was shocked.

Just now, the scholar had merely opened a page and lost his sight and suffered a traumatic loss of soul. Now, he had taken the initiative to invite a person with a royal destiny to read this book. Could this really be true?

"That blind man just now had little merit and virtue. He only opened the Book of Life and Death but didn't actually read it."

Zhou Kao continued, "Because he couldn't see the contents at all, he could only see blank pages. Even so, he couldn't bear it. If you don't believe me, try it yourself."

After saying this, he gently shook the Book of Life and Death in his hand, as if luring a greedy fish to take the bait.

Zhou Liangjin's expression changed slightly, and a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes.

Although he was destined to be a king and had a prominent family background, the tragic scene he had just witnessed still left him with lingering fears.

The scholar was just a small scholar. When he opened the Book of Life and Death, he became blind and his soul was damaged.

Although he has the destiny of a king, he is unwilling to take risks.

not to mention!!!!

He suddenly raised his head, his eyes showing some doubts:

"How come you, a fool, can look through the Book of Life and Death and still be safe and sound?"

This is a key question.

Zhou Kao not only read through it, but also carried the Book of Life and Death with him almost all day long. He read it over and over again countless times and had already memorized it by heart.

"Who knows?"

Zhou Kao smiled slightly, his tone was light,

"Maybe the blind guy just had bad luck and happened to be blind. Do you want to try it too?"

As he spoke, he raised the Book of Life and Death again, like holding a fishing rod, waiting for the prey to take the bait.

Zhou Liangjin was now so frightened that he dared not look through the Book of Life and Death. The idea that he had previously had of taking the Book of Life and Death disappeared completely.

This Book of Life and Death is truly only controlled by ghosts and gods. If a living person wants to open the Book of Life and Death, he is seeking death.

Zhou Liangjin felt aggrieved and his face was gloomy.

Originally, he came with great momentum, high spirits and full of confidence, but now, he was forced to retreat step by step by Zhou Kao's few words and a few tricks.

Among the group, one vomited blood and fell into a coma, one was blind, and the rest were so frightened that they had no courage to fight.

What’s even more terrifying is that Zhou Kao actually holds the Book of Life and Death in his hand!

If it is true as the rumors say, that he can use this to change people's fate and shorten their lifespan, then if I offend him, wouldn't I be in danger of dying young at any time?

For a moment, Zhou Liangjin lost all his momentum, and the calmness and strength he had shown when facing Zhou Kao were gone.

after all--

When someone has the power over your life and death, what can you use to fight him?

Zhou Kao glanced at him indifferently and knew that he had already decided to retreat.

Suddenly I felt bored.

This "Book of Life and Death" may not be very effective against ghosts and gods, but for mortals, it is the sharpest sword.

Anyone whose name is recorded in the book, no matter if he is a king, a general or a minister, cannot escape the control of fate.

Of course, changing the fate in the Book of Life and Death is not easy and the cost is extremely high.

I'm afraid no one present here knows this, not even Zhou Liangjin.

Even during the Zhou Kao period, although he could read the book at will, he never dared to tamper with its contents.

At most, he would just cross out the names of those whose blessings and virtues had been exhausted and whose lifespan had come to an end. However, he was always extremely cautious in such actions and would never do them unless it was absolutely necessary.

Noticing the sudden change in the situation, the old foxes and fox girls on the side looked unhappy and became even more panicked and uneasy.

"Mr. Zhou...Mr. Zhou."

An old fox spoke quietly, his voice barely audible, ringing in Zhou Liangjin's ears, "This man is extraordinary, and you can't fight him, or you'll suffer a great loss."

Zhou Liangjin's eyes darkened slightly, and he realized that what the old fox said was true.

The Zhou Kao in front of him was definitely not an ordinary person.

These past few months have been enjoying themselves and not paying attention to what this person is doing. A person with such ability would definitely not just save some people from the flood.

He must have made a name for himself somewhere else.

If he were in Hanshou City or in the imperial court, with the protection of the country's destiny, he could still confront him head-on.

But in this desolate mountain and wilderness, the other party holds the book of life and death and controls yin and yang. What right do I have to compete with him?

He nodded slowly, took a breath calmly, suppressed the resentment and anger in his heart, and put on a calm demeanor.

"Zhou Kao, relying on supernatural means is not a real skill. These evil arts are ultimately not worthy of being put on the stage. If you want to take this Qingshan from me, then please show me your ability to convince me."

"Oh?"

Zhou Kao raised his eyebrows and smiled.

"You still want to continue fighting? With your few weak arms and legs?"

He said with some contempt:

"I have shown mercy. If I had been more ruthless, not even a bone would have been left of you. Let this matter be over. I have settled all the sins that need to be settled. You may leave, and today's grudges are wiped out."

He sounded a little confused when he said this.

He really couldn't understand why Zhou Liangjin was still unwilling to stop.

Was it because his previous methods were not ruthless enough and he couldn't intimidate this group of people?

Or do they have to wait for one or two people to die before they understand what it means to "become a hero if one understands the current affairs"?

Zhou Liangjin was silent for a moment, then revealed a meaningful smile:

"You are a scholar, and I am also a scholar. Scholarly matters should be resolved using scholarly methods."

He stared at Zhou Kao and said word by word:

"I've heard you're proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, and song. How about a duel between us? If I win, you leave Qingshan behind and depart. If I lose, I'll lead the others away and never molest them. How do you think?"

Since we can’t compete with the supernatural powers of ghosts and gods, let’s return to the contest of literary talent.

As far as Zhou Liangjin knew, people with special skills would not casually kill people who were favored by the country or had noble destinies, otherwise the consequences would be terrible.

Although Zhou Kao did not care about these rules, he did not kill innocent people indiscriminately.

This is his chance.

However, Zhou Kao sneered, not hiding his disdain:

"Heh... Qingshan originally belonged to the Hu and Han people. You occupied this place, provoked a fight, and now you're trying to gamble with other people's homes? Don't you have any shame?"

He paused and then said:

"If you want to compete, then come up with something truly convincing."

As soon as the words fell, an old voice suddenly sounded:

"How about taking Fox Two's life?"

I saw an old fox slowly walk out of the crowd and drag out an unconscious fox from his sleeve.
