A figure shining with golden light came towards the black tiger.
Sanskrit characters linger above the golden light, and the "Swastika" Buddhist seal hangs above the figure's head, exuding endless majesty.
Seeing this, the black tiger was so frightened that the hair on his hair stood on end, and he dodged as fast as he could in his life.
Oh my god, what kind of bad luck has happened? Why are the people I meet more perverted than the last?
Black Tiger dodged, completely exposing Yu Zhi to the opponent's golden light. In an instant, Yu Zhi raised his hand and punched out, his true energy bursting to the extreme.
After going through the dual body refining process of Bi Luo Qing Yan and Xing Hui, under the same circumstances, even a practitioner of the body refining lineage, Yu Zhi is not afraid.
clang!
The fist hit the golden light, making a bell sound that resounded through the sky.
What a hard body... After meeting each other, the little monk Wuhua in the golden light sighed in his heart. Since he left the north, he has been heading south, helping people in need along the way. It wasn't until he reached Cangzhou that a boundless resentment caught his attention.
After searching all the way, the little monk Wuhua found this city in the mountain.
A gust of dust rose up into the sky and enveloped the two of them.
Yu Zhi relied on his boiling energy and blood to fight the attacker at close quarters. Each punch landed with a loud sound, like the sound of a bell in an ancient temple.
After a few more punches, Yu Zhi felt that his fist was numb from the shock.
Yu Zhi flew back and landed beside Black Tiger. The brief exchange made Yu Zhi realize that the other party was also a member of Buddhism, and his identity could not be concealed by the bright golden light of Buddhism.
Yu Zhi opened his mouth and said, "May I ask if this person is a disciple of Buddhism?"
Under the golden light, Wuhua was slightly surprised and asked: "Donor Yu?"
Yu Zhi looked at the golden light not far away, and his expression slowly began to become happy. "Little monk...no, Master Wuhua?"
Wuhua dispersed the golden light of Buddhism and revealed his true body. It's still that childish face and those innocent eyes, but the original unstained temperament has a hint of the worldly world.
"Amitabha. Donor Yu, we meet again." Wuhua clasped his hands together and saluted.
Yu Zhi walked up to Wuhua and put his arm on Wuhua's shoulders intimately. "How did you get here?"
Wuhua looked at the black tiger aside. The immature monk was like a glaring King Kong, his pure eyes showing a breathtaking majesty.
This look scared Heihu to the point of trembling again. The bald head in front of him was so scary, so scary, so scary.
Black Tiger was lying on the ground, not daring to look directly into Wuhua's eyes.
Wuhua asked: "Donor Yu, why are you with this evil beast?"
Yu Zhi was confused, glanced at the black tiger, and then looked at the huge city gate. Wuhua walked out of the mountain city. He must have seen something in the city to make him so angry that he wanted to kill Black Tiger as soon as he saw him.
"Talking as we walk." Yu Zhi took the lead in walking towards the city gate, and at the same time told Wu Hua about the affairs of those villages.
Wuhua frowned and said with certainty: "Sure enough, these people were all eaten by this evil beast."
Wuhua once again had murderous intentions, and the golden light flashed and was about to kill the black tiger.
Yu Zhi grabbed Wuhua, thought for a while, and said, "This beast can't escape from our hands. Let me see this mountain city first, and then deal with it."
Thinking of the scene in the mountain city, Wuhua looked compassionate and recited again - Amitabha.
The huge stone gate cannot be pushed open by one person. Fortunately, the gate is ajar, allowing Yu Zhi and others to enter.
Behind the city gate is the valley, which is also a city in the mountains. The rock walls around the valley are tens of meters high, with many caves and countless houses built on the rock walls. The rows of houses are well-organized and hierarchical.
Seeing this, Yu Zhi became even more convinced that there must be a huge secret hidden in it.
The valley is huge and desolate, with no trace of living things. There are some weapons scattered on the ground along the way, and they all appear to be military standards.
"I don't know who built the city. To build such a magnificent city in the mountains must be a big deal." Yu Zhi murmured.
Wuhua said hesitantly: "Donor Yu, have you felt the breath of the night ghost?"
Yu Zhi was startled, and then looked at the black tiger behind him.
Three questions popped up in Black Tiger's head - What is a night ghost?
Yu Zhi said: "The tiger behind us has traces of night ghosts..."
Wuhua shook his head and said: "That's not the case. What Xiaoseng means is that there is some aura of night ghosts in this city."
Immediately, Yu Zhi also began to sense it carefully, thinking: Could this mountain city be built by night ghosts?
Wu Hua continued to explain: "The young monk came here and found a sense of resentment. He searched all the way and found this city. But there was some aura of night ghosts in this resentment. Although the aura was very weak, the young monk could be sure that this It’s the breath of night ghosts.”
Yu Zhi also said: "That's right. This tiger has opened up its spiritual intelligence, and the blood pupil is also particularly special. I think Night Ghost used some means to turn it into what it is today."
Black Tiger roared in time, responding to Yu Zhi's suspicion.
...
The black tiger in the past did not look like this, it was just an ordinary tiger in the mountains. But one day, a group of people came from the mountains, brought it to this mountain city, and imprisoned it in a cage.
There are many such cages in this mountain city, containing various animals and people.
One day, those people brought a box, and the box stank. Soon the stench spread throughout the city. And a large amount of black mist came out of the small box, black mist with a rotting smell.
A wisp of black mist wrapped around it, got into its nose, mouth, ears, and then entered its body.
Yes, the tiger had undergone a change. The black and yellow stripes turned into jet black hair, and one of the brown eyes turned into blood. The mist entering his body was transforming it, turning him into a monster.
The pain of splitting skin and flesh, the pain of heart-breaking pain, the pain of all limbs and bones being broken, it rolled on the ground and roared. In its ears, there were also wailing sounds from other places. There are tigers, wolves... and also human screams.
Eventually it passed out completely.
I don't know how long it was in a coma. After it woke up, it began to understand human speech and became a little larger than before. At the same time, a strong sense of hunger hit it.
At this time, those people appeared again. They laughed evilly and threw the cage into an open place surrounded by high and insurmountable walls. The hungry black tiger couldn't climb up no matter how hard he climbed.
Immediately afterwards, a person was thrown off the high wall.
Black Tiger had seen these people before. They were all villagers from the villages at the foot of the mountain. These people were panicked and frightened, running around in all directions. They were afraid of the black tiger, and even more afraid of the people on the high wall.
Those people deceived them, but now they have fallen into the tiger's mouth.
Hunger drove the black tiger to rush forward and bite the innocent villagers. It is not strange for tigers to eat people. Even on normal days, it is common for tigers to drag people and eat them in the fields and mountains.
Day after day, the feeling of hunger continued. Black Tiger seemed to be hungry and woke up every day as if he didn't have enough to eat.
Day after day, those who captured it kept sending people, occasionally wild boars and wild dogs, but most of them were people. Perhaps in the eyes of those people, humans are easier to deceive than these beasts.
Day after day, Black Tiger grew up at an alarming speed to what it is today. And he thought about escaping all the time.
Until a month ago, these people sent a wild boar. The wild boar is dead, and the two people standing on the high wall are talking. They didn't know that the black tiger could understand human speech, and knew that these people wanted to poison it to death.
The black tiger took a bite of wild boar as if nothing had happened. After a while, he fell to the ground until the person on the high wall left.
After that, Black Tiger immediately opened his eyes, and his bloody eyes flashed sharply.
...
The two of them and one tiger soon arrived at the center of the city, where cages appeared in front of everyone, and...countless bones and corpses.
Corpses were scattered everywhere, and some were piled up in mountains. All in all, many, many people must have died here.
Wuhua clasped his hands together and sighed with compassion: "Amitabha, it is really a sin."
Yu Zhi stared and saw that there were many such pits for trapped animals surrounded by high walls in the distance, and there were naturally many corpses in the pits.
Now, Yu Zhi understood what Heihu meant when he nodded and shook his head.
People from those villages are here, but they are all dead.
Yu Zhi asked coldly: "Are you eating these people?"
Heihu didn't dare to lie, so he blinked and growled several times in succession, trying to explain. It knew it couldn't escape the grasp of these two people.
Wuhua said indifferently: "Donor Yu, this evil beast dares to eat people and is cruel by nature. Let the monk send it to repent before the Buddha."
Yu Zhi stopped him and said: "There are still many things that are not clear. If you want to kill it, there is no need to rush."
Yu Zhi continued to wander around the city. There were traces of human life here, indicating that someone had locked the black tiger here.
"Someone brought you here and turned you into this. The same is true for the people in the village. They became your food?"
Black Tiger nodded one after another and roared with joy.
Finally, someone can clear my name. You are so smart, unlike that bald man who only knows how to kill me without using his brain. It’s not that I want to eat it. Why is it a sin for a tiger to eat people?
Yu Zhi kept walking on the rock wall, with Heihu and Wuhua following behind Yu Zhi.
"Wuhua, you said before that there is some aura of night ghosts here. I think I have found the reason." Yu Zhi said.
Immediately, Yu Zhi picked the box on the ground with the tip of his sword. His perception is not as sharp as Wuhua. He believed in Wuhua's perception and his own judgment.
Black Tiger was transformed into this by the night ghost, so the aura of the night ghost naturally remains here.
Wuhua Buddha's heart was pure, and the disgusting smell in the box was extremely strong in his perception.
Yu Zhi explained: "When we were in Cangshan, you and I both saw Cang Shui transformed into a night ghost. The rotten and disgusting smell is exactly the same as the smell of the box in front of me. I feel that someone is brewing a huge conspiracy."
"This mountain city cannot be built overnight. Not long after the Night Ghost appeared in the world, strange beasts like black tigers appeared. It was obvious that someone had colluded with the Night Ghost early and secretly conspired. Such a conspiracy may subvert the entire human world. "
