This is a severed root.
Those thread-like objects scattered throughout the town were also roots, but they were so slender that Rong Fei couldn't identify them at the time.
Combining these roots with Feng Tiannan's previous story, Rong Fei could basically conclude that it was a flower demon or a tree demon that confused Feng Tiannan.
Just like the dryad grandmother in A Chinese Ghost Story.
In this way, there is a reasonable explanation for how the masked monk was drained of all his blood.
Rong Fei couldn't help but shudder as he imagined countless roots inserting into his throat, piercing his trachea and esophagus and frantically sucking blood.
And those monsters in the town that are neither humans nor ghosts, with silky roots all over their bodies, should be the rations that the monsters feed.
Forty-three years have passed, and the original residents of Tanxi Town should have died long ago. The monsters wandering in the town now should be outsiders who have accidentally entered this place over the years.
How many people did this monster kill?
Tanxi Town is only more than fifty miles away from Kyoto. Why has no one discovered it for so many years?
In addition, there is another question that is most puzzling to Rong Fei. The territory of Dayan is so large and the population is so large that there are villages and towns even in some remote places. No matter where you choose as a hunting ground, it will be safer and less likely to be detected than here.
But the monster chose this place. Could it be that he wanted to hide under the light?
Unreasonable things happened one after another, and Rong Fei couldn't figure out why.
It seems that the key to solving these mysteries still lies with that monster.
After tidying up the body of the masked monk, Rong Fei took out the talisman sword and saber from the storage jade ring. Holding the sword in his left hand and the knife in his right hand, he walked to the lonely tomb and shouted loudly.
"If you don't come out, don't blame Rong for digging up his grave and exterminating his family."
As soon as Rong Fei finished speaking, there was the sound of fallen leaves and branches being trampled in the forest behind him.
As the sound got closer and closer, a graceful figure walked out of the forest and stood more than twenty steps away from Rong Fei.
"I had no intention of getting into trouble with the Immortal Bureau, so why should the Chief Catcher have to push me so hard?"
The banshee's voice was as clear and sweet as the sound of nature. Rong Fei turned around and looked through the moonlight, and saw a bright and beautiful face.
"Countless ghosts of injustice are lingering in Tanxi Town. It is the duty of the Immortal Division to find the perpetrators and redress the injustices. How can we force them to do so?"
Rong Fei raised his right hand, pointed the blade directly at the banshee and shouted sternly.
"That's what they deserve, death!"
The banshee glared at Rong Fei and shouted emotionally.
"My sister and I were originally a pair of orchids in Mang Mountain. By chance, we gave birth to a spiritual consciousness. After hundreds of years of practice, we cultivated into human form. We originally wanted to come to the human world to learn etiquette, experience the experience of the world, and lay a solid foundation for future practice. But we were halfway there. However, I was targeted by an evil person. The evil person relied on his powerful magic weapon to injure my sister, so he wanted to forcefully subjugate her for his sexual pleasure, and even called her a double cultivator.
I bother! It is clear that he is motivated by sexual desire and bullies the weak.
At the critical moment, my sister and I relied on our natural powers to temporarily charm the evildoer and take the opportunity to escape. However, before we could escape far, the evildoer caught up with us again. In the panic, my sister and I were separated.
I finally got rid of the evil man and tried hard to find traces of my sister, but in the end I only found this nameless solitary grave. Then I charmed a man in the town, and then I learned about my sister's tragic experience. "
At this point, the banshee burst into tears and burst into tears.
"Master Captor, I only ask you, what would you do if your sister had this happen to you? You keep saying that you are going after the murderers and redressing the injustices, but are you just chasing the murderers of my demon clan and redressing the injustices of your human race? On the contrary, the human race is killing the demons. Can the clan just ignore it?"
Faced with the banshee's question, Rong Fei sneered and asked in a deep voice.
"Let's not mention that the laws of the human race are supposed to protect the interests of the human race. I just ask you, after asking the evildoers, did you go to the Jixian Division to report the case? After you found out that your sister was killed by the townspeople, did you go to the Jixian Division to report the case? ?”
"Hmph! It's a joke. I was seriously injured at that time and it was extremely difficult to maintain my human form. If I went to Kyoto like that, I'm afraid I would be shot on the spot before entering the city gate. Even if I got into the city by luck, you Ji Xian Division would have Will you really treat me like you treat your own people?"
"Jixiansi only talks about good and evil, regardless of race. You are obviously biased, so how can you blame Jixiansi?"
"To put it nicely, you humans are hypocritical."
"No matter what you think in your heart, Japan must arrest you today. You will be lenient if you confess, and strict if you resist, and surrendering is your only way out."
"You bad guy, you really thought I was afraid of you."
Seeing Rong Fei's attitude of being indifferent and enforcing the law impartially, the banshee knew that there was no way to be kind today. In this case, she would strike first.
As soon as she finished speaking, dozens of tentacle-like roots poked out from the banshee's back. After a burst of red light, it turned into two huge flowers, and its legs were plunged into the soil on the ground.
The tentacle-like roots swept toward Rong Fei, and the wind howled with great force. The flowers turned into arms pointed at Rong Fei, and a puff of pink pollen sprayed out and spread in the direction of Rong Fei. There was a rustling sound in the forest behind him, and the filamentous roots were spreading towards this side like a living thing.
Based on Feng Tiannan's previous account and the cause of the masked monk's death, Rong Fei had roughly guessed that the banshee's attack methods were nothing more than pollen-induced hallucinations and root attacks and blood-sucking methods.
The Qingling Powder applied on the palm of my left hand still has the medicinal effect, so I am not afraid of the pollen causing hallucinations.
The roots just found in the masked monk's body are not very strong and can be cut off with an ordinary sword.
Before he decided to force the banshee to appear, he had already thought of ways to deal with the enemy.
Although Rong Fei has reached the eighth level of cultivation, he has been busy solving cases and absorbing Xing Ming's Qi during this period. He hasn't had time to take a closer look at the God-catching Technique given to him by Yu Qingzhi. The only way to deal with the enemy currently is Haoran Qi. A sort of.
The reason why Rong Fei was the first to practice Haoran Qi was because he was bullied so badly by Guo Xiao's Haoran Qi in Fencheng, which left a deep impression on him. Secondly, Haoran Qi is both offensive and defensive, which is especially suitable for a novice like him who has just entered the world of cultivation.
Facing an attack like the Banshee, which is not very powerful but has a very wide range, it is most appropriate to use Haoran Qi to deal with it.
Rong Fei was about to use his Haoran Qi calmly, but something suddenly happened in his heart.
This banshee's powerful methods are all restrained by her, and she can be said to be invincible against her.
In this case, why not try the newly learned Crazy Sword.
In this way, there will be more ways to fight the enemy or save one's life in the future.
After making up his mind, he put away the talisman sword in his left hand.
Recalling the previous scene of Feng Tiannan wielding the sword and his own insights in his mind, he activated his magical power to summon wind and rain, and slashed vertically, diagonally, and horizontally towards the banshee with the sword in his right hand.
Three wisps of breeze blew into the pink mist, causing three ripples. The ripples disappeared in an instant, and the pink mist continued to approach Rong Fei.
Rong Fei was surprised, but at this moment, the powdery mist, roots, and patches of fine whiskers behind him were all close at hand, and he couldn't allow him to think too much, so he quickly used his awe-inspiring energy.
The Haoran Qi of the eighth-level cultivation is no small matter. In addition, the Haoran Qi has a natural restraint on monsters and evil spirits. The powder mist and roots formed by the pollen recede like flames meeting water.
The banshee was unsure about Rong Fei's cultivation before, so this attack was mostly meant to be a test. Seeing that the offensive was resolved so easily, he had already guessed that the cultivation level of this Jixian Division agent was higher than his own.
The two most powerful methods were unable to defeat each other, and the banshee suddenly wanted to retreat. The flowers in her hands once again sprayed out a large cloud of pollen mist around Rong Fei, and she quietly retreated towards the mountain forest under the cover of the powder mist.
Rong Fei saw that the pink mist suddenly became thicker, and the figure of the banshee could no longer be seen with the naked eye.
There must be some deceit in his mind, so he used his supernatural power to see through the wall and saw the banshee trying to escape.
Rong Fei didn't panic, he hit the unmarked tombstone with his saber and made a banging sound.
"You run, and I'll dig your grave."
"you dare!"
When the banshee heard this, she hurriedly stopped and cursed through gritted teeth.
"If you don't believe it, try it."
After saying that, Rong Fei used his saber to fly away a handful of loess from the top of the grave bag.
"Shameless!"
The banshee scolded and had to turn back to continue her entanglement with Rong Fei.
Rong Fei continued to fight the banshee with his awe-inspiring energy, while frowning and thinking about why the mad sword he had just used failed.
Obviously, I had thought of the Crazy Sword simply before. It was not possible to use the magical power to control the wind and rain and combine it with moves to display the power of the Crazy Sword.
Rong Fei originally thought that the arc-shaped ripples cut by Feng Tiannan when he used the Crazy Knife were caused by the rapid sliding or trembling of the blade cutting the air to form a vacuum, and then creating an energy attack similar to an air cannon.
When he had just slashed out the three swords, Rong Fei not only used his magical power to summon wind and rain, but even injected some spiritual power into the blade. Under the dual effects, the initial speed of the blade when slashing must have been faster than that of Feng Tiannan, but the result was that Lonely was killed.
If you think about it carefully, the key lies in what Feng Tiannan said.
The method of the Crazy Sword has no moves or styles, but uses the intention and power of the sword as a guide to drive the power of heaven and earth.
The sword is the tyrant of hundreds of soldiers, it cuts the sky and cuts the earth for its purpose, and it is its power to move forward in an indomitable way. Rong Fei, who is familiar with online novels and is a writer himself, will not be stumped by this kind of question.
But even though the literal meaning is that we understand it, how to do it is a difficult problem.
Rong Fei could only recall the state when Feng Tiannan chopped the door panel with three swords through the air, and then tried to imitate the cat and the tiger several times.
The result is still as lonely as snow.
After several failed attempts, Rong Fei simply changed his mind and started with the Kuang Zi of Kuang Dao.
What is madness?
Madness and madness represent a state of disorder, chaos, and uncontrollability. Feng Tiannan looks quite normal and has no symptoms of mental illness, so that's definitely not what he meant.
Arrogance and arrogance represent the aura of being unruly and contemptuous of rules.
This is very consistent with Feng Tiannan's temperament and experience.
This put Rong Fei in a bit of trouble.
Rong Fei knows his own family affairs, and he has a relatively rational character. On the premise of sticking to the bottom line, whether as a person or in life, he usually makes calculations and measurements.
Any factors that hinder rational and objective judgment will in most cases be discarded.
He would never do such crazy and courageous stupid things as hitting an egg against a rock or using a mantis' arm as a chariot, even if there were thousands of people.
My personality is completely incompatible with the emotion of madness.
what to do?
Do you want to give up practicing the Crazy Sword?
But he was a little unwilling to do so, just because the momentum and spirit of Feng Tiannan when he used the Crazy Sword before really made him yearn for it.
Is this the case?
Rong Fei is in trouble.
Huh!
Two pictures suddenly flashed through Rong Fei's mind.
I...seems like I've been stupid before!
