Chapter 651: Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio - Fairy 23
Ever since he learned about the "agreement" between Ruyi and the monsters in Qingshan, Zhiqiu Yiye finally understood what the monster he discovered that night was like. From then on, Zhiqiu Yiye no longer forced himself to stay up all night and guard the door.
Three days passed in a blink of an eye, and it was finally the day of the "decisive battle" that Ruyi had mentioned. Zhiqiu Yiye was so nervous that he didn't sleep well the whole night, and he got up early this morning to go out and investigate.
When he came back, Ruyi had already woken up. Zhiqiu Yiye walked up to Ruyi with a worried look on his face and confirmed with Ruyi again and again: "Senior, all the monsters outside have withdrawn. It seems that the monsters you mentioned are indeed coming."
"Senior, are you sure we can deal with those monsters with just the two of us? I heard that each of those monsters has at least several hundred years of cultivation!"
Ruyi was naturally aware of Zhiqiu Yiye's worries, but after such a long time, Ruyi's cultivation was not a trivial matter. When Ruyi first entered this world, he not only had no experience in fighting monsters, but he couldn't even exert his own strength. He was able to seriously injure the tree demon grandmother who had a thousand years of cultivation. Now there are only three "little" monsters that are less than a thousand years old. Ruyi is naturally not afraid.
In order to calm Zhiqiu Yiye's nervous mood, Ruyi told him about the battle between her and Yan Chixia against the tree demon at Lanruo Temple in Yinshan Mountain, and emphasized: "Don't worry, my cultivation level at that time was just like a baby compared to now. I was so weak back then, but I was able to defeat the thousand-year-old tree demon together with Yan Chixia. Now there are only three monsters with less than a thousand years of cultivation. There will be no problem!"
Ruyi has not forgotten that he has a power bank incense clone. Especially in this period of time, due to the frequent murders in Guobei County, many people who are afraid that something bad will happen to them have no choice but to ask for God's protection. It just so happens that "Ruyi" is the god that the residents of Guobei County are most familiar with.
If Ruyi's incense clone were taken out now, Zhiqiu Yiye would definitely be scared. Although the power of incense is weak, it grows really fast. Ruyi's original body is now at the first level of the fourth stage of the immortal spirit, while the clone's cultivation has reached the third level of the second stage of the immortal spirit, which is almost the same level as Ruyi half a month ago.
It was still the same night, still the same evil wind, and still the same monsters. The difference was that this time the four monsters did not act together like last time. Instead, they stood separately. The distance between each monster was just the right distance so that they would not be entangled by Ruyi's Wood Entanglement Technique but could still support and rescue each other at any time.
Ruyi originally wanted to trick Zhiqiu Yiye into hiding in the temple, but she didn't expect that Zhiqiu Yiye, who was usually silly, was now terribly sharp. No matter what excuses Ruyi came up with, he would not agree. Finally, Ruyi had to arrange an auxiliary position for Zhiqiu Yiye.
At this moment, Zhiqiu Yiye was hiding behind the door with a flower pot in his arms, staring at the monsters outside the door through the crack in the door, waiting for them to walk into the range of the spell and then immediately remind Ruyi.
Ruyi did not go out. She just sat in the ruined temple. She seemed calm and fearless, but in fact she was just waiting for the four monsters to enter and then she would activate the talismans hidden in the ruined temple. It would be safer to consume half of the opponent's life at the beginning.
Hu Meiniang was wrapped in black gauze, and even her face was covered with a veil of the same color, revealing only a pair of blood-red fox eyes. She stared at Ruyi angrily. If looks could kill, Ruyi would have been cut into pieces by Hu Meiniang's gaze by now.
"Humph, you damned woman, you actually dared to harm me like this. This time, I will definitely cut you into pieces!"
As soon as she saw Ruyi's intact face, Hu Meiniang couldn't hold back the resentment in her heart, and completely forgot the idea they had discussed before coming here to lure Ruyi out of the ruined temple first. Without waiting for the ancestors to give a signal, Hu Meiniang flew up, and her two sharp claws flashing silver light grabbed Ruyi's face.
Old Lady Huang, Old Man Bai, and Hu Siniang did not expect Hu Meiniang to be so impatient. When they saw Hu Meiniang recklessly rushing into the ruined temple, she was tied up by a green light. Then a flash of lightning flashed by the door of the ruined temple. Hu Meiniang did not even have time to scream before she was burned into a charred fox.
Hu Si Niang had just said "Mei Niang, be careful!" when she saw Hu Mei Niang being struck back to her original form by lightning and fainting on the ground. She immediately rushed forward with her eyes wide open and her fangs bared, and finally it was Old Man Bai who reacted quickly enough and grabbed the angry Hu Si Niang.
"Si Niang, calm down. Mei Niang is dead."
"That woman put talismans inside, and Mei Niang died under the thunder talisman." Old Lady Huang narrowed her eyes and stared at Ruyi fiercely. Everything happened so fast that Hu Mei Niang died in the blink of an eye.
Old Mrs. Huang became more and more fearful. She had thought that Hu Meiniang was, after all, a great monster who had practiced for hundreds of years. Even if she was weaker, she could at least fight with Ruyi for a few moves and consume some of Ruyi's strength for them. However, she did not expect that Hu Meiniang died without even touching Ruyi.
"What a waste of the old woman's pills..." Old Lady Huang sighed, "Oh, never mind, at least she has tried out the trap for us." Old Lady Huang has lived for such a long time, and the word she relies on the most is 'caution'.
Although she had refined the Water of Unjust Death, she did not think that with the Water of Unjust Death they would be safe like Mr. Bai and Hu Siniang. So before setting out today, Old Lady Huang specially drugged Hu Meiniang to make her impulsive and irritable. Her original intention was to let Hu Meiniang take the lead to test out Ruyi's trump card for them, but she did not expect the result to be like this.
Hu Siniang was sobered up by Mr. Bai. She wiped her tears and quickly regained her senses. As for the charred fox corpse in the ruined temple, it was dead, so it didn't matter to her.
"How come her thunder talisman is so powerful?"
Old Master Bai was a little frightened. It was not like he had not seen the talismans drawn by Taoist priests, such as the earth-escaping talismans, flying talismans, fireball talismans, thunder-dropping talismans, rain-dropping talismans and so on. Old Master Bai had seen quite a few of them. In his impression, these talismans could be used to deal with ordinary small monsters. Even if they were effective against monsters like them who had cultivated for more than a hundred years, they should not be so powerful.
Coincidentally, when the talisman teacher Zhiqiu Yiye himself witnessed the scene of Hu Meiniang being struck to death by the thunder talisman, the first question he blurted out was also this question.
He widened his eyes, pointed at Hu Meiniang, who had already turned to charcoal on the ground, and asked in disbelief, "Why is your thunder talisman so powerful?"
"Is this the time to worry about this?" Ruyi rolled her eyes and looked at the monsters outside the temple who were eavesdropping with their ears perked up after hearing the questions asked by Zhiqiu Yiye. She felt that Zhiqiu Yiye was really a bad teammate.
Zhiqiu Yiye followed Ruyi's gaze and saw the three monsters outside the temple. He touched his head embarrassedly and said, "Oh, I'll ask later." After saying that, he looked at the three monsters with contempt. That look seemed to say that the three monsters were shameless and had the nerve to eavesdrop!
"Damn it, you dare to play tricks on us!" Hu Si Niang was even more furious when she was looked down upon by Zhi Qiu Yi Ye. Old Master Bai was also a little anxious at this time. He turned his head to look at Old Lady Huang and asked, "Old Lady Huang, are you ready?"
"Don't worry, it's fine now."
