Late at night, the dark sky was filled with lightning and thunder, heavy rain poured down, and the howling wind became more and more intense. The roars and roars of ferocious beasts and birds of prey in the Sunset Mountains were even more persistent.
The villagers in Hongdou Village stayed at home, either coaxing their children to sleep, or praying silently. This was not the first time they had encountered such weather, but they were still nervous and uneasy, not just because there were thunderous hunting in the mountains. team, especially because the bad weather this time was more severe than in previous years.
The villagers of Hongdou Village are not members of a certain family or clan system. Their ancestors are all poor people from various places who are fleeing war or whose families have been destroyed. Even the head of Luo Village was killed in the mountains by a hunting team ten years ago. Rescue.
Because he had a lot of experience and knew a little about spiritual practice, at least in the eyes of the villagers, he became the village chief.
In a spacious wooden house in the center of the village, two men in their thirties, Liu Xin and Meng Ran, were waiting with their respective hunting team members. Although the armor and weapons were simple, they were fully armed and waiting.
Under normal circumstances, they would just wait for the weather to improve, and they would go into the mountain to meet the Thunder Team. However, the weird weather tonight made them restless. They hoped that the village chief in the wooden house not far away could give them an order to go into the mountain now. .
In the wooden house, Village Chief Luo, who was wearing a linen robe, was sitting cross-legged on the bed with his back to the door. There was a gold-patterned bright silver gun placed across his knees. At this time, Village Chief Luo was holding a piece of white silk cloth over and over again. Wipe it again and again.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a shocking sound of thunder resounded through the sky, and a huge bolt of lightning struck the ground instantly from the dark clouds. A moment of blazing white light shone on the shiny gun blade, reflecting a face with thick eyebrows and big eyes. , the resolute face also illuminated the six vigorous and powerful small characters on the gun body 'Royal Family of the Gale Luo Family'.
"Fourteen years... If my son were still alive, he would be fourteen years old."
Putting down his spear, he took out a pair of small red shoes embroidered with gold from the pillow beside him. Village Chief Luo gently stroked the pattern on the shoes, his words full of remorse and longing.
"Dong dong dong!"
At this moment, there was a rapid knock on the door. Village Chief Luo's body suddenly drifted away, and he once again turned into an old man. He stood up and opened the door.
Seeing Liu Xin and Meng Ran standing in the heavy rain with hopeful expressions on their faces, Chief Luo said in a deep voice, "Wait! Even if you go into the mountain now, you will be in danger even if you don't find the Thunder Team. No matter what, wait until daybreak."
"But……"
"village head……"
The two of them looked at each other, both of them unwilling to give up. In such weather, if they stayed in the mountains for a moment longer, their chances of survival would be reduced.
"Go back!" Without giving the two of them a chance to continue talking, Village Chief Luo glared and yelled, "Don't be arrogant! Go back and prepare supplies. After dawn, no matter what the weather is, I will allow you to enter the mountain."
"good!"
"Yes, village chief!"
Seeing what the village chief said, the two of them stopped forcing it and knew that this was the best outcome at the moment.
"Hey..."
However, just as Liu Xin and Meng Ran returned to the wooden house, and just as Village Chief Luo was about to close the door, a shrill and sharp scream echoed over Hongdou Village.
When Village Chief Luo raised his eyes in shock, a disheveled evil spirit suddenly descended from the sky in front of the wooden house. In an instant, a cold and evil wind blew away, directly blowing away the five large rooms where Liu Xin, Meng Ran and others were. Three wooden houses collapsed, and everyone in the two hunting teams was knocked unconscious by the powerful momentum.
"Corpse Soul Yinsha?! Fifth level of blood coagulation? How come it appears here? Could it be..."
With a shiver in his heart, Village Chief Luo glanced at the Sunset Mountains and immediately stretched out his hand. He rushed towards the Yin Sha at high speed. The bright silver gun with gold patterns shot out and fell into his hand, and then he stabbed out with a spear.
In an instant, wisps of lightning suddenly appeared on the tip of the spear, turning into a bolt of thunder and lightning that pierced Yin Sha's eyebrows.
"Bah!"
The power of thunder and lightning is the nemesis of monsters such as Yinhun. This Yinsha screamed sharply, and its figure suddenly retreated several feet away. It immediately spat out a burst of blue-black smoke from its mouth and turned into a storm to hit Village Chief Luo.
"snort!"
With a cold snort, Village Chief Luo held the gun body in his hand and spun it violently. The bright silver gun with golden patterns turned into a screen of guns to block all the sinister and poisonous fog in front of him. At the same time, his body did not retreat but moved forward. The poisonous mist of Yin Sha rushed towards the Yin Sha.
"Wind and Thunder Gun, destroy!"
The next moment, Village Chief Luo jumped into the sky, shouted loudly, and a hurricane burst out from the bright silver gun with golden patterns. The power of thunder and lightning inside it crackled, and Lingtian pressed in, sealing off everything within a ten-foot radius. of all space.
The Yin Sha in the center of the storm stared at the sky in horror and roared continuously, but was suppressed by the power of wind and thunder and could not move. However, a ray of thunder and lightning cut through the night and penetrated directly into the head of Yin Sha. In an instant, the power of thunder and lightning It exploded and swallowed up the evil spirit, annihilating it into nothingness.
After landing, Village Chief Luo swung his spear and looked in the direction of the Sunset Mountains, feeling increasingly uneasy.
After checking that the two hunting team members were not in danger, Village Chief Luo took out two tokens and a thunder stone from the house, knocked on Aunt Liu's door, and said, "Later, you will summon the whole village. Go to the wooden house in the village and take this thunder stone. If there is an evil spirit coming, this thunder stone can save your life. Remember, never leave the wooden house."
Seeing the village chief being so solemn, Aunt Liu became more and more panicked and said hurriedly: "Village Chief, what about you? Aren't you going to stay with us?"
"Go into the mountain." Looking at the direction of the mountain, Village Chief Luo warned him again and again, "Tonight is unusual. There are evil spirits in the mountain. If Lei Ming and the others don't go deep into the mountain, I can still rescue them."
…
In the Sunset Mountains, at the foot of a mountain a hundred miles away from Hongdou Village, there is a cave behind layers of bushes. The team led by Lei Ming, totaling eleven people, is here.
There are caves like this at regular intervals, which were opened by the ancestors of Hongdou Village for generations to spend the night in the mountains.
Perhaps they were unlucky. Since entering the mountain, they had not found suitable prey. Seeing the night coming, they had to return to the village empty-handed. However, before they had walked a short distance, it suddenly became dark, followed by a strong wind. It suddenly started to rain heavily.
Walking in the mountains in this kind of weather is undoubtedly the most dangerous. In desperation, Lei Ming took the hunting team to a nearby cave to spend the night and return to the village after dawn.
However, as the night gets deeper and deeper, ferocious beasts and raptors in the mountains continue to appear, and all kinds of roars and hisses are heard endlessly. It would be better if that was all. With the characteristics of Lihuo grass, they can still spend time safely in the cave. But on their way here, they discovered that there were sinister ghosts wandering in the forest.
They had heard from the village chief that this kind of filthy thing was mostly formed after the death of people who came to the mountains for training and were infected by the filthy atmosphere in the mountains.
This is just an ordinary Yin evil. Deep in the mountains, there is a long-standing tomb of ten thousand corpses. Not only the Yin energy, resentment, and corpse energy of countless corpses are gathered there, but there are also formations that condense the Yin evil energy in the mountain and nourish it. Countless corpse souls were released, and they were extremely powerful.
The village chief has warned them more than once that if they encounter one, they should stay as far away as possible and not disturb them.
Even if some monsters in the Blood Coagulation Realm encounter them, they will suck their blood and die. Not to mention those hunting team members who only have the second and third levels of Qi training. If they accidentally attract the attention of these corpse spirits, what will happen to them? There is only one way to die.
Fortunately, the hunting team has been in and out of the mountains all year round, so they are always alert and cautious in their actions. When they encountered the first corpse Yinsha, they used the smell of Lihuo grass to cover up their aura, and turned eastward. Xiluo was lucky enough to hide in this cave.
In the cave, the members of the hunting team sat together. Most of them had seen this kind of corpse spirit for the first time, and they couldn't help but feel a little scared. Their bodies were still trembling while sitting cross-legged.
Although the Lihuo grass can cover their aura, it cannot drive away the Yinsha corpses like it can drive away monsters. If there are Yinsha corpses wandering here, they may die.
"You guys stay, I'll go out to explore the situation!" Seeing that all the team members were uneasy, Lei Ming tied up his Lihuo straw clothes, put on his Lihuo straw hat and went out. Before leaving, he said: "If it is before noon tomorrow , I haven’t come back yet, so you don’t have to wait for me and find an opportunity to return to the village.”
"Captain, it's better not to go out. We are all together to take care of you."
"Yes, Captain, it's too dangerous outside, so don't go out."
"team leader……"
"Captain, don't go! If we die, we will all die together."
"Yes, we will die together."
"..."
Seeing Lei Ming about to leave, all the team members suddenly became nervous. After so many years together, how could they still not understand the thoughts of their captain. They said they were going out to investigate the situation, but in fact they were acting as bait.
It doesn't matter if nothing happens. If there are Corpse Soul Yinsha gathering around, no, even if only one wanders over, his captain will try his best to lure it away to prevent Corpse Soul Yinsha from discovering this place.
"Why are you making such a fuss! Don't you even want to live?" Lei Ming yelled and cursed angrily. Seeing the brothers quiet down, he sighed and said, "Don't worry, I'll just hang around nearby. If a corpse really comes over, I'll I will run back early and leave here with you."
No longer paying attention to the brothers, he grabbed a handful of Lihuo grass and a fire stick. Lei Ming turned around and walked out of the cave. He blocked the entrance of the cave with a big stone, then turned around and looked at the dark forest, and disappeared into the darkness.
"Boom!"
In the mountain forest, a bolt of thunder descended from the sky. The terrifying power of heaven directly blasted a thick old tree into charcoal, and even a corpse wandering nearby, Yin Sha, was also turned into fly ash in the thunder.
The fire that ignited on the old tree was extinguished by the heavy rain soon, and it fell onto a stream with a clicking sound.
Behind an old tree a hundred meters away by the stream, Lei Ming, who was watching this scene, muttered to himself: "In this kind of thunderous weather, it stands to reason that these corpses should not dare to come out..."
"boom!"
At this moment, deep in the Sunset Mountains, a thick blood-red light pillar instantly rose into the sky, shaking the dark clouds in the sky away in an instant.
Lines of blood-red light spread out like ripples to the sky in all directions. In an instant, the sky seemed to be covered with a large layer of blood-red cloth, reflecting the mountains and forests in front of them extremely red. The sudden heavy rain was also reflected as if it were falling from the sky. Rain of blood.
