Chapter Twenty: Strife

  "This, this is actually a Flesh Spirit Mushroom!" Old Sun's face was filled with joy, shouting "It has actually grown out here, hehehe. Baidu search: it's so simple! It's really heaven helping me, heaven helping me ah!" After speaking, he turned his head, patted my shoulder and said "Young one, with this Flesh Spirit Mushroom, you'll be able to cultivate your Qi in no time, hahaha!"

  Sun Lao Gui burst out laughing in my ear, but I ignored him and stared straight at the so-called flesh lingzhi with wide eyes.

  All that could be seen was that this thing was very large. It looked like a giant flower bud, and after drilling out of the pile of bones, it suddenly started beating like a heart, shrinking and expanding with a "gurgling" sound, and a stream of colored gas also sprayed out from the flower bud.

  The colorful gas was beautiful and magnificent, at first glance it attracted my attention, as if I saw familiar faces smiling at me in the gas.

  Grandpa, Dad. Xia Yu Xin, and many more villagers, countless faces flashing by quickly in the colorful gas, some laughing, some sad, some frantically fleeing.

  Finally, the screen flashed, and a blood-colored figure suddenly appeared in that gas.

  This is actually Corpse Sister.

  Crimson-colored phoenix coronet, crimson-colored misty veil, crimson-colored footsteps. A gentle breeze blew, her long skirt fluttered in the wind, revealing her fair and delicate legs...

  You stand with your back to me, quietly standing like the Goddess of the Ninth Heaven, transcending the mundane and worldly. Unbeknownst to you, I've been enchanted! Please Baidu x9ed1;x2d;x5ca9;x2b;x9601; is the greatest support for us, thank you!

  At this moment, the figure of the corpse sister suddenly disappeared, replaced by a wooden face, they stared at me with empty and godless eyes, their eyes were full of resentment.

  "We died so miserably, died so miserably, I'm not resigned to it! Why did it have to be me? Why did it have to be me!"

  A loud roar came out of their mouths, countless voices overlapping each other, turning into a shrill cry. Finally, their faces slowly merged together, forming an extremely terrifying giant face.

  Big eyes, big nose, big mouth...

  And in those eyes, a deep and intense resentment!

  In an instant, I only felt inexplicable terror, wanting to scream loudly, but unable to make a sound, wanting to run away, but my body was completely paralyzed.

  Just as I was at a loss and didn't know what to do, Sun Lao Gui's roar came from beside my ear: "Fool, don't look!"

  As the thunder-like sound exploded in my mind, the giant face before me shattered like a broken mirror and quickly dissipated. I shuddered all over, instantly waking up, turning my head to see that I was still lying on the pile of bones, while Old Sun was firmly pressing my Renzhong acupoint.

  "Uh!......" I groaned in agony, then asked "Just now, I saw many faces, they...they said they died miserably, I..."

  "Shut up!" Sun Lao Gui shouted, then said "That gas is the corpse energy transformed by Rou Ling Zhi's devouring of the dead, carrying all the resentment of those who died here. Do you know or not? If it weren't for me, that poisonous gas would have wrapped around you, every moment, no matter where you go, you'd be tormented by the wronged spirits!"

  I was shocked by his words. That gas is so powerful? I couldn't help but shudder all over, and turned my head to look at Roulin Chi.

  The massive flesh lingzhi still lay on the pile of bones, shrinking and expanding, with colorful gases spraying out, but compared to before, the gases were much lighter this time.

  I knew that gas was terrible, so I didn't dare look again, but instead stared at the flesh lingzhi.

  At this time, the flesh Lingzhi suddenly shook violently twice, and then, it really slowly opened like a flower bud, and then, it instantly bloomed!

  If in that fleeting moment, I felt as if this slowly blooming flesh lingzhi was like the most beautiful flower in the world.

  And when that flower bud is fully open, it can be seen that its interior is no different from the flower itself. Moreover, in the center, there is a plant similar to the stamen of a flower.

  That plant is extremely similar to ordinary lingzhi, but it emits a colorful glow, beautiful and magnificent, with a very strong visual impact.

  Could it be that the flower bud is actually the real Lingzhi?

  Is the outer layer of petals just its outer garment?

  At this time, the small meat spirit suddenly trembled slightly, and in an instant, I seemed to hear a sound similar to a baby yawning. My heart was greatly shocked, heaven, this meat spirit, isn't it becoming a spirit?

  But Sun Lao Gui suddenly burst out laughing, saying "Hehehe, legend has it that Rou Ling Zhi grows into a human form after a year, looks like what was said is not false, but this legendary thing, actually grew here, how strange, could there be some hidden secrets here?"

  Sun the old ghost muttered to himself, and after finishing speaking, he fell into deep thought. But after a while, he slapped his thigh and said, "To hell with it, let's pick it first!" After saying that, he actually walked towards the flesh spirit mushroom.

  I swallowed my saliva, that flesh lingzhi was extremely strange, it looked like a baby, and it even made sounds. And the outer layer of the corpse's clothes was too terrifying, I hope nothing unexpected happens again?

  Just as I was indulging in wild fancies, Old Sun suddenly let out a loud cry. I raised my head to look and saw that a gigantic corpse monkey had suddenly leapt up and knocked Old Sun down onto the pile of bones.

  This corpse monkey was very robust, and at this time it stood up like a human being, really just like a person, even taller than Sun Lao Gui by a head. Those blood-red eyes were like lanterns, staring greedily at Rou Ling Shi, with a greedy expression on its face.

  This dead monkey seems to be the one that was pushed down along with Old Sun Ghost.

  At this time, Sun Lao Gui sprang up, his face full of violent anger, gritting his teeth and saying "No wonder you group of monkeys are guarding here, it turns out that you're also waiting for the Rou Ling Zhi! Hehe, a monkey, actually wants to cultivate Qi and transform into human form, what a wild dream!" Sun Lao Gui let out a loud shout, and immediately waved his small flag, two fierce ghosts quickly rushed out, rushing straight at the corpse of the monkey.

  But this corpse monkey was different from the previous ones, as if it had gained spiritual intelligence. Seeing the evil spirit pounce over, it didn't try to harden itself, but instead jumped back and opened its big mouth, letting out a loud roar.

  In an instant, all the sounds were drowned out by this huge roar, and as the roar spread, it seemed that there was also a wave of invisible sound waves rippling out. The two fierce ghosts let out a shrill cry, their bodies unstable, almost being knocked over by the sound waves.

  But Sun Lao Gui is a figure of what kind, decades ago had heard the name of evil way, and then in the ancient tomb with a corpse co-born, lingering for decades, how could be shaken by a dead monkey?

  He let out a cold snort, and then pinched his fingers together in a spell seal. Suddenly, a surge of dark energy rolled in, and the two fierce ghosts were like they had been doused with chicken blood, refusing to back down. They opened their mouths wide and began to howl.

  Sharp wails and low, mournful howls blended together, causing the pile of corpses to shake violently. I stood on top of the pile, feeling only a suffocating sensation in my chest, before my legs gave out from under me and I fell to the ground with a thud, immediately covering my ears tightly to alleviate my own suffering.

  It wasn't until much later that the voice gradually subsided, and then I heard the sound of "bang bang bang" coming out from time to time. I let out a painful hum and lifted my head to look over, only to see Old Sun and the corpse monkey entangled in battle once again.

  However, the corpse monkey was too agile, jumping and dodging around, and actually managed to force Sun Lao Gui to retreat repeatedly, with wounds all over his body, some of which were scratched by the corpse monkey until they were bloody and mangled.

  I had a mind to help out earlier, but unfortunately this level of fighting isn't something that a young whippersnapper like me can intervene in, so I could only anxiously watch from the side.

  At this moment, Sun the old ghost suddenly took a step back, retreated two steps, then his left hand rummaged in his pocket and actually grabbed a handful of copper coins, immediately making a "whooshing" sound as he scattered them all over the corpse of the monkey.

  That copper coin is the Five Emperor Coin, passed down from ancient times, and it's unknown how many people have held it, absorbing so much yang energy, causing the most harm to filthy things.

  The corpse monkey had been feeding on corpses for years, and its body was filled with evil energy, which clashed with the properties of the Five Emperor Coins. At this moment, when the Five Emperor Coin was hit, smoke actually rose from its body.

  "Ah!" The corpse monkey let out a painful cry, its two front paws clenched into fists and pounded against its chest with a "thud thud thud", but at this moment, I suddenly heard a dull humming sound. I turned my head to look, and saw that a fiery red creature, resembling a seven-star ladybug, had flown out of the flower bud. The corpse monkey, upon seeing the creature, didn't even bother with Sun Laogui anymore, let out a "ah ah" cry, and turned to run away.

  I was shocked by this sight, what the hell is this thing, how could it even scare away that dead monkey?

  Get down on your knees and beg Baidu for mobixs
