"Zi Chen, why don't you take me away."
Looking at Zi Chen walking away, Yi Zixing's eyes were full of longing.
He wanted to go back and continue to be the boss of Xiaoyao, but when he came to the origin of the myth, he was not allowed to leave.
I can only stay in the mountains every day, and there are not many beauties around me.
Every time I go on a mission, I am in a hurry. Not to mention meeting a few beauties, I almost lose my life.
He envied Zi Chen very much, there was never a shortage of beauties around him. Finally, Zi Chen came alone this time, which made Yi Zixing feel better, but he came to take Wang Yiling away again.
So he begged Zi Chen to take him away, even if he went to work in the Holy Spirit Realm as a coolie.
Zi Chen immediately refused.
Qi Xiu and Lin Wei had long been accustomed to Yi Zixing's nervousness, so they turned back to the mountain.
Looking at the dead village ahead, Wang Yiling had a solemn expression.
She walked forward quickly, and after a while she found that there was no one alive in this small village.
"how so?"
This is already the third village.
"The time of death was more than ten days. The condition of death was similar to the previous two villages. There were sharp weapons and claws, and no property was lost."
Zi Chen walked out from the side and didn't find much useful information.
It was a one-sided massacre.
Judging from the traces, other villagers did not react at all. It must be an evil existence, good at concealment and surprise attacks.
One of the villages was suspected of being attacked at night, and almost everyone died in their beds.
It’s just that it’s unclear at the moment whether it’s an evil existence or a gang committing the crime.
Zi Chen's mental power spread to the greatest extent. He tried to find some clues along the way, but there were no clues.
There are two possibilities.
One is that the evil being has very clever concealment methods and can evade Zi Chen's perception. Both parties have long missed it.
Another possibility is that they followed their residential areas and massacred other villages.
However, no other useful information was found along the way, so it was not clear which direction the evil being went.
At this moment, the Taoist spirit emerged from Zi Chen's arms.
It stood on Zi Chen's shoulder, looked around a few times, and then jumped on Zi Chen's head.
The little guy looked around and then took a deep breath.
The next moment, he helped Zi Chen point out a direction.
"Let's go and have a look."
Zi Chen was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the little guy had this ability besides eating every day.
After swallowing the spirit body in the city last time, it fell into a deep sleep, and Zi Chen didn't know when it woke up.
Zi Chen and Wang Yiling gradually increased their speed.
Two days later, they discovered an uninhabited village. It seemed that they were heading in the right direction.
After a brief look around, Zi Chen went to the next direction under the guidance of the Taoist spirit.
Six days later, we passed two villages again.
The villagers died less than a day ago.
"Almost catching up."
Zi Chen's eyes flashed coldly. He didn't know exactly what kind of existence was targeting these villagers, but he must not let them go.
Two days later.
In a dense forest, Zi Chen discovered a strange existence.
It is like a huge meat ball, hidden in a dense tree. There are tentacles of various sizes on the meat ball. Its body flickers in and out, as if it is sleeping.
Zi Chen was not sure whether it was this strange existence that massacred the people in those villages, so he did not take action immediately.
After arriving here, the spirit of the Taoist soldiers did not appear. I don't know if it was because of something taboo.
Thirty miles away, there is a village with a population of about two to three hundred people.
Zi Chen and Wang Yiling arrived at the entrance of the village.
Several children were playing around, and when they saw Zi Chen and Wang Yiling, they all looked at them curiously.
This scene reminded Zi Chen of his first visit to the headquarters of the Evil Spirit Alliance in Dongfang County.
It's just that those children were very courageous. When they came up and found out his identity, they took action directly.
The innocent eyes of the children in front of them showed not only curiosity but also timidity. When standing together, they would also deliberately squeeze in behind their partners while secretly looking at the two of them.
Zi Chen smiled: "Don't be afraid. We were passing by here and we were thirsty. Come and ask for a bowl of water."
"Drink water, wait."
A younger and slightly older child bravely said something and then ran back to the village quickly.
Seeing this, the others quickly ran in.
Wang Yiling looked at Zi Chen doubtfully.
"Anyway, there's no rush. Let's wait and see here. If it's really it, we'll deal with it directly. If it's not, we won't kill it by mistake." Zi Chen smiled lightly.
Soon, the children came out surrounded by an old man.
"Brother, please come in, please come in quickly."
The old man is the village chief here. In his words, all the young and middle-aged people in the village have gone out to work, leaving behind only women and children.
Zi Chen said that he and his junior sister went out for training and passed by a village to ask for a bowl of water. If it was inconvenient, forget it.
"It's just a bowl of water, no big deal. Are you hungry after walking all the way?"
The old man enthusiastically took the two of them back to the village.
Hearing that two strangers had arrived, the villagers also came out to take a look.
Most of them are women, children and the elderly.
This place is relatively remote, and there should not be many people coming to the village. Everyone has great goodwill towards Zi Chen's arrival.
The old man first poured two bowls of water for Zi Chen, and then chatted with Zi Chen, while the woman at home started to light a fire to cook. The kind neighbor knew that the village chief wanted to entertain guests, so he brought a piece of old bacon and a few dried trees. bamboo shoots.
"Old Liu, you're here, stay and have a few sips." The village chief invited with a smile.
Old Liu, who was about the same age as the village chief, sat down without being polite and said, "I've been craving for that bite for a long time."
"This is Zi Chen, and Xiao Wang next to him is his junior sister. They are from sects in the mountains." The village chief introduced.
"Is that the immortal master?"
Old Liu was very surprised, "I heard that some gods and gentlemen can fly? Little fairy, can the gods on your mountain fly?"
Zi Chen nodded and smiled, "Uncle Liu, just call me Zi Chen. We from Shanmen can actually fly a little."
"What a fairy!" Old Liu's eyes lit up, "Little fairy, why don't you take a look at my cub and see if he can go up the mountain and become a fairy?"
"Don't come here, my brothers and sisters are here to gain experience, not to accept disciples."
Even so, the village chief still said: "However, can you help my grandson take a look? I heard that the gods can see a person's future."
Zi Chen smiled and said: "Old man, that is called qualification, which determines the talent for cultivation, but the future level still depends on the individual's luck, and talent cannot be determined accurately."
"Can you help me, little brother? If it's a lot of trouble, forget it. We from a remote country are definitely not very good at it."
Zi Chen said: "It doesn't take much trouble, you can take a look now."
Lao Liu asked: "Can everyone watch it?"
Zi Chen nodded.
So Lao Liu ran away immediately, and after a while, he brought someone back.
In addition to some children, there are also some women, all carrying bamboo baskets.
The bamboo baskets were filled with fruits, vegetables, eggs, bacon, and even two live chickens.
Obviously knowing that Zi Chen wanted to help look at talents, everyone brought all the good things from home.
The children looked at Zi Chen, excited, nervous, but also uneasy.
At Zi Chen's level, if you want to check the talents of ordinary people, you can just scan them at a glance. Unless there are very special beings, you need to sense them.
Apparently none of the kids here need it.
Wang Yiling shook her head. She originally thought that she might be able to find a person with outstanding talents, but she obviously thought too much.
Phoenixes will also appear in the wild forest, but the chance is too low.
"Little Immortal, don't we all have talents?"
When Lao Liu saw Wang Yiling shaking his head, he blocked it in his heart.
Zi Chen smiled and said, "I haven't read it yet. I'll talk about it later."
There was hope again in Lao Liu's eyes.
So does everyone else.
So Zi Chen made a fake seal, and as soon as the seal was completed, a ray of light flew out from Zi Chen's fingertips.
Under everyone's amazed gazes, the light spread out and fell on the children.
The children's bodies began to glow until their entire bodies were enveloped in excitement.
The eyes of others were full of expectations.
The light lasted for ten breaths before disappearing.
Everyone looked at Zi Chen, nervous and expectant.
"Everyone's talents are actually quite good. If they work hard and practice hard, they can all embark on the path of spiritual practice."
When everyone heard this, they all had smiles on their faces, and Zi Chen continued: "But..."
Everyone looked at Zi Chen again.
"...On the road to cultivation, in addition to talent, you also need a lot of resources, so it is not recommended that you practice before you have prepared these."
Everyone is nodding, naturally they understand this.
I heard that those practitioners eat different food than ordinary people.
Seeing the children's low mood, Zi Chen said: "Don't be discouraged. The aura of light before is enough to ensure that you will not get sick or suffer disaster in the future. When you become successful in the future, you will still be able to practice."
It was equivalent to a blessing from the gods, and the women quickly thanked the children.
Although they cannot practice cultivation, they will be free from illness and disaster in the future, which is the greatest blessing to them.
The children's sorrow went away as quickly as it came, and soon the sound of frolic could be heard outside.
It was hard to refuse such kindness, so Zi Chen accepted these fruits and vegetables and temporarily left them with the village chief.
The meal was cooked and sumptuous, and the old man served fine wine to entertain the guests.
Wang Yiling also drank two bowls.
It was getting late, so the village chief suggested that the two of them stay one night and leave tomorrow.
Zi Chen accepted the invitation.
As soon as it got dark, the village became dark and everyone took a rest.
Zi Chen's spiritual power is spread around the village.
The existence like a meat ball came outside the village.
The tentacles extending from its body were undergoing a series of changes, some turned into claws, some turned into weapons, and sneaked into the village.
Now, all the doubts were cleared.
The meat ball didn't make any noise when it moved, so when it came to the room, the villagers had no time to react.
The raised tentacles turned into sharp claws and slashed towards the villagers' necks.
It has long been accustomed to this scene, because it has harvested a lot along the way.
But this time, something unexpected happened.
The sharp claw did not fall, but was blocked by a force.
Zi Chen disappeared from his residence out of thin air, and when he reappeared, he was already in front of the heretic meat ball.
"It's you."
Zi Chen looked at the meat ball in front of him.
Meatball was obviously taken aback, but was not afraid at all. His tentacles turned into attacks and went straight towards Zi Chen.
At the same time, there was also a spiritual wave flowing into Zi Chen's sea of consciousness.
Buzz!
Zi Chen stood still, but the meat ball was blown away.
That mental wave dissipated as soon as it entered the sea of consciousness.
Playing with mental power in front of Zi Chen is no less than playing tricks on others.
The huge movement woke up the people in the room.
The woman let out a scream.
People in the small village were alarmed.
When the villagers came over holding torches, they saw Zi Chen standing there and a strange ball of flesh.
"Xiao Xiangzhang, what's going on?"
