"Damn, you were careless!"
When the bone-chilling chill spread from his arms to his whole body, Pei Wende, who always regarded himself as "civilized", couldn't help but uttered an "ancient version" of curse words.
Pei Wende never dreamed that this damn demon could actually "freeze" itself in this way.
Ordinary people who are in poor health will catch a cold for several days if a basin of cold water is poured on their head.
Not to mention the sudden change like his current situation, where Yin Qi directly invades the blood and causes the body temperature to drop rapidly.
Bang!
Pei Wende, who felt that the roots of his teeth were chilling, resisted the cold and hit the rogue with another headbutt, intending to make the opponent loosen his teeth.
"Evil ghost! Let go!"
One headbutt after another hit the Demon's face one after another, but he still couldn't make the opponent let go.
Pei Wende himself, on the other hand, lost his strength due to the yin energy that gradually penetrated into his bone marrow, and the strength of his headbutt also decreased at a speed visible to the naked eye.
However, after a moment, Pei Wende could no longer capture the demon and watched helplessly as the opponent broke free from his restraints.
Fortunately, the ghost is not unscathed. The practice of forcibly using its own yin energy to extinguish the hot blood also causes it to suffer the backlash of yang energy.
After all, under normal circumstances, the evil ghost is only responsible for deceiving or capturing pedestrians. The one who is truly qualified to enjoy the blood is the evil spirit behind it.
"Young man, it seems that the outcome has been decided between the two of us."
After confirming that Pei Wende had lost the ability to resist, the ghost finally released his teeth, and a ferocious smile appeared on the gray ghost's face.
But it obviously didn't feel well either. Pei Wende's vitality far exceeded its imagination.
If he continues, he will not be sure whether it will be Pei Wende or himself who will die.
Therefore, even though it was still uncertain whether Pei Wende had completely lost his ability to resist, the demon had no choice but to let go of him.
"..."
Without responding directly to the demon, even if the situation reached an extremely critical point, Pei Wende never gave up his plan to save himself, and his mind was still running rapidly.
[If I had known, even if the old monk didn't want to, I would have shamelessly summoned him to learn some methods of conquering demons! 】
Not to mention the annoyance and unwillingness in Pei Wende's heart at this moment, seeing that the other party was in such a desperate situation but never showed any sign of cowardice, the demon couldn't help but cursed secretly.
[Isn’t this guy stupid? Why are you so brave? 】
As a demon who helps the evildoers do evil, the evil spirit behind it needs "blood food", but all it needs is the fear of people's hearts.
Although compared with the serious "blood food", the fear of human beings before death is not even the remains of food, but the ghost knows that it is the only "food" he can obtain.
Therefore, this is also the reason why the ghost goes out of his way to scare the pedestrians who have been deceived by him.
However, this time it encountered an alien like Pei Wende.
Apart from the initial panic, the demon didn't feel much fear from the other party at all.
"Silly and bold, I hope you will still be as bold as you are now after seeing 'it'."
Not even wanting to shout "Young" anymore, the Demonic Ghost looked around, and after making sure that no one noticed what happened on this remote road, he reached out and planned to drag Pei Wende away.
However, just when the demon reached out to grab the collar on Pei Wende's chest, a surprising scene happened.
tumultuous!
A dazzling golden light shot out from Pei Wende's heart without any warning, and then shined straight on the Demon who was caught off guard.
"ah!!!"
Being illuminated by this sudden golden light, the Demonic Ghost immediately let out a wailing sound that was a hundred times more tragic than before, as if it had been splashed with sulfuric acid.
The Yin Qi in the body was quickly dissipated, and hideous and terrifying wounds began to appear on the surface of the body...
In an instant, the originally ferocious and gloomy ghost turned into a bloody corpse, and its head fell directly from its neck to the ground.
Such a short and terrifying scene suddenly frightened Pei Wende.
"How is this going?"
Pei Wende did not really lose his ability to resist, and his "weakness" just now was just pretending to show the evil spirit.
But he dared to swear to God that he was just looking for an opportunity to sneak attack on the demon, and he hadn't taken any actual action yet.
The golden light that "shot" the demon just now was definitely not his own doing.
After all, if I had this ability, there would be no need to fight so hard with the demons, and it would almost cost me my own life.
The most important thing is that after the golden light emerged from his heart, Pei Wende could clearly feel that his body was recovering rapidly.
Boo! Boo! Boo!
The heart that had been eroded by the Yin Qi started to beat again, and the body temperature that had dropped sharply rose to a normal temperature...
In just one breath, Pei Wende was completely restored to the state before being eroded by Yin Qi.
Apart from the clearly visible bite marks on his arm, judging from Pei Wende's current expression, there is no trace of the fact that he was almost "frozen to death" just now.
"Did the old monk take action?"
Slowly getting up from the ground, Pei Wende was seen holding his heart in a daze while involuntarily glancing at the ghost that turned into corpses.
By some strange coincidence, Pei Wende walked towards the pile of bloody corpses.
Immediately afterwards, Pei Wende felt his eyes blur, and a small, slightly rural village suddenly appeared in front of him.
"What is this place?"
This small village is not big, with probably less than ten households.
At first glance, it looks like a small village in a remote area. The annual harvest may not be able to meet its own consumption.
Once any natural or man-made disaster occurs, small villages like this often do not even have the slightest ability to resist risks and will disappear directly on this land of China.
"A hallucination?"
Frowning slightly, Pei Wende looked at the small village in confusion, not sure what the connection between this small village and the ghost was.
"Is this the memory of a ghost?"
As a traveler from the 21st century, the well-informed Pei Wende quickly distinguished the difference between this place and reality.
First of all, Pei Wende is just a bystander in this memory.
Apart from adjusting his perspective, there was nothing he could do to affect this memory.
It's like a game CG that has been preset for a long time. Players only have the permission to "watch" it, and at best it adds a little immersive sense of presence.
Secondly, this memory is not a complete story, but is like a revolving door before death, which will quickly flash through some impressive memory fragments during one's lifetime.
It's just that what Pei Wende sees now is not the revolving door of his own life, but the revolving door of the ghost's lifetime.
Pei Wende didn't know why he saw a ghostly revolving lantern. He seriously suspected that it had something to do with the golden light coming from his heart.
Or rather, it seems to be related to Pei Wende's special perception ability.
