Tiger Demon, as the name suggests, is a fierce tiger that becomes a demon. It seems that in this world, "working for the tiger" is no longer an idiom, but has become a reality. People killed by the tiger demon will become ghosts, and then go around to lure innocent people with various lies to be eaten by the tiger demon, and then become new ghosts.

Tai Sui, commonly known as Ganoderma lucidum, is a polymer of fungi that cannot move and has a strong self-healing ability. Even if you cut off a piece of its flesh, it will grow back on its own. According to legend, its meat has the effect of "prolonging life and even immortality", but in fact this is not the case. At this time, even in another world, Li Xuan didn't see any "immortal" help from Tai Sui.

And the Tiger Demon Tai Sui is... a Tai Sui who grew out of the tiger demon's corpse for some unknown reason.

The tiger demon was the previous demon, but it died.

But a new demon was born on the corpse of the dead demon.

This... is the mutant monster.

Originally, creatures needed to be eaten by tiger demons in order to become ghosts. And this demon is probably not very powerful. Apart from deceiving people and probing for information, it doesn't have any other substantial attack capabilities.

But now, Tai Sui, the tiger demon, only needs to use magic to kill people silently and directly transform people into a kind of ghost that is more terrifying than a ghost.

This kind of ghost possesses part of the memory and power of its lifetime, and has super recovery ability. It will become invulnerable for a period of time after resurrection and is extremely difficult to kill, but... it is afraid of fire.

After Li Xuan obtained the demon blood of "Tiger Demon Tai Sui", he naturally understood a lot of information.

Without any hesitation, he directly replaced the demonic blood of "Misty Leopard" and replaced it with the demonic blood of "Tiger Demon Taisui".

Suddenly, his mental attributes became an unprecedented 46 points.

An indescribable sense of harmony arose in my mind.

If he had a "photographic memory" before, now he has a feeling of "unity of knowledge and action". To put it simply... he seems to be able to do it immediately as long as he knows something. Intellectual ability and practical ability have been perfectly blended together, and the specific level they have reached needs to be tested slowly.

As for his appearance, Li Xuan didn't know what his upper body looked like, but he could see his legs...

The bones in the legs seemed to have disappeared, turning into two soft tentacles paralyzed on the ground, and the boots were tilted to both sides with the tips of the tentacles, looking quite demonic...

But... Li Xuan felt that this "tentacle" just looked like a tentacle. In fact, it did not have the function of a tentacle at all. It was as if his legs had suddenly merged with some weird demonic fungi.

To put it simply, he couldn't move with his legs!

In addition, pieces of information that had never been seen before appeared in the form of prompt blue fonts.

[You have injected two types of demon blood (spirits) of the same kind: "Deformed Monkey" and "Tiger Demon Tai Sui", triggering the enhanced effect! 】

[The demonic blood in the first column is the "Deformed Monkey", and the magic "Illusion" of the "Deformed Monkey" has been enhanced! 】

[There is no need to wait to remove the magic blood. It takes an hour to replace the magic blood. The countdown to the replacement time is now: 119:59]

This line of information is filled with many testable points.

However, Li Xuan is not in the mood now and has no time to explore slowly.

He just wanted to see if he could turn Liu Yingyi, who had turned into a mummy, into a ghost. In this way, he would be able to know a lot of information about the imperial court, and at the same time he would have a powerful second cultivator of the Secret Martial Arts. .

With his thoughts settled, an illusion dummy suddenly appeared in front of him.

This illusion dummy feels a little different from before.

Li Xuan didn't bother to test the difference and continued to use the magic [Create Ghost] quickly.

call...

A burst of almost transparent white thick smoke poured out from the palm of his hand and floated above his five fingers, like a little ghost wrapped in a pale sheet.

The principle of this little ghost is complicated, but basically, it is a mixture of some kind of demon power and something like spores unique to the tiger demon Tai Sui.

It condenses into a small ghost, and when it disperses, it becomes invisible.

Li Xuan handed the little ghost to the illusion dummy, hoping that the illusion dummy would be sent to Liu Yingyi's body.

He was stupid before.

He was used to using illusions to change his appearance and use illusions to kill people, but because of his nervousness, he forgot that the illusions also had the function of delivering things and detecting dangers. Otherwise, he didn't even need to open the iron box himself just now, but just let the illusions fake Just let people go.

However, at this moment... as the little ghost floated onto the illusion dummy, the illusion dummy was filled with mist, and in an instant, it twisted and disappeared.

Obviously, these two sorceries cannot be superimposed...

The idea of ​​a magic dummy holding a little ghost failed.

Li Xuan had no choice but to summon the little ghost again and blew a breath.

The little ghost then drifted away with the wind.

However, the wind direction was wrong and the little ghost flew sideways again.

Li Xuan could only adjust his position.

However, he decided to only try for half the time of burning the incense. When the half-time of burning the incense was up, he stopped trying.

...

Fortunately, Li Xuan was lucky.

After trying several times, many mummies in the distance were touched by his little ghost.

However, something embarrassing happened again.

Those mummies did not turn into evil spirits immediately, but slowly changed.

Obviously, [creating ghosts] is a job that takes time.

It was Li Xuan's first time doing this kind of work. He had little experience and didn't know how long he would have to wait.

When the time for half a stick of incense was up, he said no wait.

He wants to return to Xiongshan County immediately.

Otherwise, once the plague is introduced to Xiongshan County, what awaits him will most likely be the destruction of his family!

He can't wait any longer!

As for Baihua Mansion, he will not return.

Because Baihua Mansion is now in chaos.

Of course he is also worried about the safety of Cao Shuda, Cao Wen, and Cao Yi. After all, they have been together for a long time and they have some feelings for each other, but... if he encounters this kind of plague, he will die. What can he do?

This kind of plague kills everyone who spreads it, and it is difficult to detect in the early stage. But once you get past the initial stage of about half a day, the plague will break out very quickly and kill you directly in the next half day.

"I hope you are safe."

He said silently, then took a deep breath and withdrew the demon blood of "Tiger Demon Tai Sui".

Li Xuan's pair of tentacles then returned to normal and turned into legs.

He left behind the mummies who were transforming into ghosts and quickly headed south.

In order to avoid getting lost, he needed to go back the same way. Then when he arrived near Baihua Mansion, he did not enter from the west gate, but went around the east gate from the north gate, and then quickly returned to Xiongshan County.

As for the original relationship layout?

He couldn't care less at this time.

A natural disaster is coming. Survive first!

brush!

Regardless of exhaustion, the young man turned into a gust of wind and rushed on his way against the clock.

"We must not let the plague spread to Xiongshan County or the Li family!"

...

...

Cao Mansion.

"what happened?"

"This is..."

Cao Shuda looked in the mirror, and the mirror showed red swellings under his armpits, crotch, and neck, and an unspeakable itching sensation.

He stared in horror.

'Remember, this is a sign of the many soldiers who died yesterday. '

'It's a plague, but it's definitely not an ordinary plague! ! '

'Mr. Su is right. There is a demon over there. The demon is unfathomable. I shouldn't go...'

'I...'

Cao Shuda clenched his fists, feeling strong regret, but was soon covered by an even stronger itch.

He was a man. He knew that he would not be spared at this time, so he wanted to arrange the funeral arrangements quickly to save his family as much as possible. So he hurriedly looked at the desk and wanted to get closer. Unexpectedly, he stumbled and fell heavily as he took just one step. land.

He climbed over hard, raised his hand to grab the pen, and dipped it on the inkstone.

It was thanks to his foresight that he had prepared the ink in advance, otherwise he would not have been able to write at this time.

The brush is dyed black.

Cao Shuda started writing, but as soon as the tip of the pen touched the paper, he couldn't help but tremble and become twisted, and severe pain and itching hit him at the same time.

Only then did the prefect of Baihua Prefecture realize that it was simply unrealistic to write down his funeral details!

"Ahh!!!"

He screamed twice, gritted his teeth to hold back, quickly drew a few random strokes on the paper, then wrapped an ink stick and threw it out the window, while yelling heartbreakingly. : "Madam! Looking for Madam!!!"

Outside the door, the maid who was waiting was listening to the movements in the room, her legs were shaking with fear... She already knew what happened to the master.

Seeing the thrown thing at this time, the six gods who had no master came back to their senses.

The maid shivered and grabbed the paper wrapped in ink, and murmured repeatedly: "Madam, Madam...yes, look for Madam!"

She didn't dare to enter the house, so she ran towards the eldest lady's house.

...

At this time, the eldest lady was in the room.

Cao Wen heard that Cao Yi was hiding in fear.

After my father came back last night, he quarantined himself and told them not to come near him, saying there might be a plague.

After that, from last night to today, these two people seemed to have seen the gate of hell slowly opening...

First, the guards reported that hundreds of soldiers had died.

Then, he started talking about where people were starting to die in the city.

If he dies, his whole family dies; if he dies, he dies on the first floor...

Thinking of what their father said, the two of them almost felt like they were dreaming.

"Madam! Madam!"

The screams of the frightened maid came from afar.

"It's Li'er!" Cao Yi's big frightened eyes suddenly lit up, with a glimmer of hope in the light.

Li'er is her father's maid, so her father must have good news.

The eldest lady opened a little door.

The maid named Li'er held up the paper wrapped in ink and said, "Master... Master is infected with the epidemic. He threw it out of the window."

The words "Master is infected with the epidemic" directly made the eldest lady almost faint.

Cao Wen even called "Dad" and wanted to go out impatiently.

But he only took two steps forward when he was stopped by the eldest lady.

The eldest lady held the hands of her son and daughter tightly, and said to the maid outside the door: "Read it!"

The maid then tore off the paper and looked up, only two words were written crookedly on it: Get out of the city! !
