Suddenly there were a lot of things he wanted to say to Gu Chen, but it was a pity that Gu Chen was not here, so those words could only be hidden in his heart for the time being. The wailing ghostly ghost in front of him recalled Luo Cheng's thoughts, and he couldn't help but frown. He wrinkled slightly, and a certain key that he ignored at the beginning flashed through his mind, and he murmured: "No."
Since the Ghost Sect moved south, a large number of ghost cultivators have poured into the Central Plains. These ghost cultivators include ghosts and human monks. As long as they practice ghost techniques, they are ghost cultivators. However, this group of ghost cultivators gathered in the villages here are all ghosts. There is not a single human monk. When did humans and ghosts become so distinct among ghost cultivators?
"Why are we gathering in this village?"
The ghosts suddenly became quiet.
"What is there in this village that brings you here? Is it useful to you ghost cultivators? Or should I say, is it useful to you ghosts?"
"No...nothing..."
As Luo Cheng's eyes became cold and stern, these ghosts were scattered and almost died. They let out sharp screams under the torture of the sword light, making the night wind even more miserable.
"Spare... spare your life, we really... just happened to be... nearby..."
"Everyone has to pay the price for their choices."
As soon as he finished speaking and the sword was closed, these ghosts dispersed and turned into Yin Qi and disappeared without a trace. Luo Cheng stood quietly for a long time. After a long time, the wind gradually stopped, and he added softly: "It's the same with ghosts."
The light of the moon fell on this remote mountain village and shone on Luo Cheng, lengthening his shadow. It was so clear, but his figure looked a little lonely under the moonlight.
With that earth-shattering sword, Luo Cheng only used three of his powers to cause such terrible damage. Although he had been mentally prepared for it, Luo Cheng was still unavoidably shocked.
Gu Chen gave him the Sword Raising Technique obtained from the former residence of the Sword God, allowing him, who had no chance of immortality, to embark on another powerful path, allowing him to compete with those who cultivated immortality even though he was a mortal body. Even more powerful, it can be said that if it weren't for Gu Chen, he wouldn't be able to take revenge.
The Art of Sword Raising has opened up an alternative way of practice, so that ordinary people will not bow down in front of immortal cultivators, giving them more confidence. They do not have to look up to immortal cultivators, and can have their own right to speak, as another descendant of the Sword God Residence after two hundred years. , Luo Cheng's qualifications and talents are very good, and coupled with the human martial arts included in Qingyang Sect, his strength has already been immeasurable.
Those human martial arts can exert powerful power with the help of the Sword Raising Technique, which can even make immortal cultivators look sideways. However, the real sword technique as the Sword Raising Technique only has two moves, but the power of these two moves is enough to make the immortals retreat.
What Luo Cheng had just used was one of the moves. It was a struggle against fate initiated by an ordinary person with a mortal body knowing that his destiny was determined by heaven. Its name is the sword from the world.
As the door creaked, those who had the courage finally poked their heads out, looked around, and then focused on Luo Cheng.
Maybe they heard the noise, and the sound of opening the door came one after another. Several children saw Luo Cheng and ran over without caring. The adults were panicked and wanted to stop, but their movements were paused in mid-air.
Luo Cheng didn't speak. Does that mean that the danger has been resolved by him?
The children were chattering around Luo Cheng, full of dependence and love for this outsider.
"Brother, are you okay?"
"Brother, why are you standing outside? Don't leave, come to my house and be my brother."
"Brother, give me a hug!"
Luo Cheng smiled, picked up the youngest child, and nodded to the villagers. They felt relieved and walked out one after another. The village suddenly became full of people and became lively with the children's laughter.
The village chief came tremblingly. He waited until the children ran away and then said: "Strong man, just now..."
"It's okay, it's just some ghosts and ghosts, I took care of them."
A chill ran down the village chief's spine. He hesitated for a moment and then said after considering, "These ghosts come and go without a trace. They are cruel and murderous. What should we do if they come again in the future?"
Under the expectant gaze of the village chief, Luo Cheng said nothing, his thoughts wavering in hesitation.
"Human life is really fragile. If you live well, it will be gone. The village was originally small, but now it is so quiet all of a sudden. The old man has one foot in the coffin, but the others are still young. , especially the children are still young, they need our protection, but... we can't protect them."
The village chief felt a little sad when he said this. Thinking of the villagers who had died before and the young children playing around at this time, he felt anxious and uneasy.
"It's a pity that my worthless old bones are still alive. It would be great if I were the one who died... These children...the children are at a carefree age. They need a truly peaceful and stable environment to be able to Really growing up, in my lifetime, I really want to see this.”
"Peace and stability?"
Luo Cheng finally spoke, which made the village chief's heart beat slightly faster. He was looking forward to hearing Luo Cheng's determination, but he was also afraid of hearing Luo Cheng's decision. This contradictory mentality made him very uneasy.
"There is no place for peace and stability in this world anymore."
Luo Cheng still didn't answer the village chief's question, which made the village chief a little disappointed. Then he became nervous again. He wondered if Luo Cheng's words had some meaning. Was this his decision? So is he willing to stay or not?
The village chief was even more confused.
It's getting late.
Maybe the whole day of fear made the villagers overly nervous. They were all exhausted now. After coaxing the children to sleep, they also fell asleep unknowingly. The village chief asked Luo Cheng to come in and rest, but Luo Cheng didn't. Shaked his head.
"These ghosts and ghosts like to be active at night. Although most of them have been killed by me, I still don't want to be careless. I don't know if there are any more nearby. Village Chief, you are very tired today. Go to bed first." I'm here to watch, and you can sleep peacefully as long as I'm here."
The village chief nodded. He had seen Luo Cheng's methods, and he felt at ease with Luo Cheng. However, the more he felt at ease, the stronger a certain expectation in his heart became.
"Strong man..."
"Let me think about it again."
Luo Cheng has already said this. The village chief can only nod. He should not push too hard. In order for Luo Cheng to stay, he has said and done everything he should say and do. There are some things that cannot be said too much. Doing too much will have the opposite effect.
The village chief sighed secretly and walked back with rickets. He couldn't help but think that although he had his own position, he just made a selfish request to embarrass Luo Cheng from his own position. Is this really good? But from his standpoint, he can only say this and do this!
It's late at night and people are quiet.
The villagers all fell asleep. Luo Cheng pulled out the Wuyin Sword and pointed the tip of the sword to the ground. Wisps of weak sword energy came out from the Wuyin Sword, spreading through the earth to the distance, spreading like ripples, and then sent back again not long after. , returning to the Wuyin Sword, waves of fluctuations came from the Wuyin Sword, and what it detected was fed back to Luo Cheng's mind, just like the consciousness of an immortal cultivator.
All the situations in this village are under Luo Cheng's control. Whether it is overt or covert, or even things that the villagers themselves don't know, they are all under Luo Cheng's exploration at this time. After a long time, he opened his eyes and came with Slight doubt.
He explored the village inside and out, but everything was ordinary and there was nothing. It was just an ordinary remote village. But how could such a village attract a large group of ghosts and ghosts to gather?
What those ghosts said was clearly untrue. Luo Cheng was sure that there was something in the village that he didn't know about, but after several searches he still found nothing and had to doubt his own judgment.
A sword energy spread far back and was captured by Luo Cheng through the Wuyin Sword. His eyebrows moved slightly, and he slowly turned around and looked at the mountain behind the village. It was during the day that he went up the mountain to kill a tiger demon. Beheading, now it seems that he needs to go up the mountain again. He didn't expect that there would be such a thing on that mountain.
