Chapter Two Hundred and Twenty Two: Shading
The human skin secret book recorded some evil magic that looked very scary, but Zeng Kui did not throw it away but wrapped it in a piece of cloth and put it in his satchel.
Because this secret book of human skin might be useful at some point, and he is still somewhat interested in these so-called evil arts.
There is a saying that goes well: magic can only be divided into good and evil because of the user. For a bright and majestic person like him, there is no magic at all.
He also got the treasure chest of the female horse thief.
[Li Xianglian’s Silver Treasure Chest: Shadow Technique, Flesh Maggots X10]
This time I opened a silver treasure chest and got only two items, and neither of them looked good.
"Could it be that as my strength increases, the treasure chest rewards for low-level [monsters] will also decrease?" Zeng Kui thought.
This reason is still very possible, because he only used one blow to kill the horse thief named Li Xianglian, and the cost was a talisman and a little mana. In fact, he had already thought of this happening.
"Mosquitoes' legs are all meat. As long as the treasure chest can continue to provide me with props." Zeng Kui soon felt relieved. After all, he couldn't do anything about this kind of thing no matter how hard he worked.
"There is also the matter of the ancient runes that I need to pay attention to. I will go back to Maoshan when I find time to check if there is any information about the ancient runes." Zeng Kui thought.
Ancient runes are related to his golden finger upgrade, so finding ancient runes is his main task.
Zeng Kui did not go back immediately, but waited in the woods for all the corpses to be burned before leaving. During this period, he did not see any ghosts being born.
In reality, ghosts are not born so easily. The female horse thief was able to become a powerful ghost because she committed suicide through evil magic.
But Zeng Kui killed her instantly without giving her a chance to use magic. The other two horse thieves who turned into ghosts were killed by the townspeople protected by the Liuding Liujia spiritual talisman and could not turn into ghosts.
After returning that night, Zeng Kui was respected and treated politely by the whole town. The worship of the strong is a common trait of all living things.
"Senior brother, please rest here tonight!" Jiu Yimei said respectfully after taking Zeng Kui to a hotel room.
"kindness!"
Zeng Kui nodded.
Too many things happened tonight, so Zeng Kui couldn't complete his original plan. He just ate something and then asked to rest.
Sitting cross-legged on the bed, he took out the [Shading Technique] that came out of the female horse thief's treasure chest.
This is the first time he has used a spell in a treasure chest.
After successfully practicing the Shadow Technique, you can use the surrounding things to cover your figure to the point of invisibility. However, the Shadow Technique cannot be moved during the execution of the Shadow Technique. Once you move, the invisibility state will be released.
"A very useless technique."
Zeng Kui gave an appraisal after reading the introduction to the shadow technique.
The shadow technique is completely useless to him, because even if the aura of the body is covered, it will still exist. As long as he meets a person with a strong spiritual sense, he will be discovered 100%, and he cannot move during the use.
.This kind of technique is only effective for ordinary people or low-level monks. It is really useless to him.
However, the flesh maggot is a relatively powerful prop. It can heal trauma instantly. In the movie, it can even forcefully heal the neck after being cut open. This shows how powerful the flesh maggot is.
Although the name is a bit disgusting, Zeng Kui doesn't care about this. As long as it is useful to him, what he lacks now is this kind of healing item.
"By the way, aren't there a lot of wine jars pretending to be ghosts in Jiu Yimei's house? If we kill all those ghosts, we can harvest dozens of treasure boxes!"
Zeng Kui suddenly thought of a plot in the movie.
Although Jiu Yimei is not very talented, she is very good at catching ghosts and exorcising them. She caught a whole room of ghosts.
So Zeng Kui set his sights on Jiu Yimei's room of ghosts. No matter what these ghosts could explode, it would be a gain.
You must know that he is already a veteran in traveling around the world, but he has only encountered so few ghosts.
He now carries a ghost with him. Dong Xiaoyu has been locked up for a long time. During this period, Zeng Kui never paid attention to Dong Xiaoyu and had no intention of releasing it. He only released it when he left Shuiliandongtian.
Dong Xiaoyu released it and sealed it again.
In his satchel was a small porcelain bottle wrapped in a yellow charm. Dong Xiaoyu was sealed inside so that it would be easier to carry.
The next day, the whole town regained its former vitality, and the shops on the streets reopened. Pedestrians walked on the road, and everyone had a smile on their face, because last night they had a bad name.
The illustrious gang of horse thieves was wiped out.
After washing up, Zeng Kui opened the door and walked out. Everyone he met bowed down and saluted him respectfully, and even shouted: "Good morning, real person."
The title "Zhenren" is an extremely polite courtesy to the Taoist priest, which shows the respect the townspeople have for Zeng Kui.
Zeng Kui's current cultivation strength is still far from the level of a real person, but it is still very useful to hear others call him Zeng Kui, a real person. Everyone likes to listen to flattery. Zeng Kui is the same as most people.
Originally, Jiu Yimei proposed to hold a big banquet today to thank Zeng Kui, but Zeng Kui refused.
Because Zeng Kui knew that today was Jiu Yimei's birthday, he couldn't take over the honors. After all, he was still thinking about Jiu Yimei's room full of drunkards!
So he asked Jiu Yimei to leave him alone and do whatever he wanted to do next.
Jiu Yimei was waiting in the hotel lobby early this morning, inviting him to attend tonight's birthday banquet. He naturally agreed and promised to be there tonight.
Originally, Aqiang wanted to show off in front of Zeng Kui, but was forcibly stopped by Jiu Yimei, who specifically stipulated that he was not allowed to hang out in front of Zeng Kui, and other townspeople were also not allowed to disturb Zeng Kui.
.
Because he was afraid that his apprentice would do something wrong, and it would be bad if he offended Zeng Kuina. After all, his apprentice's brain circuit was a little different from ordinary people.
To put it simply, his apprentice is just a second-rate person. He might do something annoying at some point. This is fine for them, but it may cause various problems for others.
Moreover, Zeng Kui also showed an attitude that he didn't like to be disturbed, so Jiu Yimei also told the townspeople not to dazzle Zeng Kui in front of his eyes, and to do whatever they should do.
Next, Zeng Kui sat next to a wine table, which was already occupied.
When Mao Shanming saw Zeng Kui sitting opposite him, he immediately became restrained. Although he did not see Zeng Kui's strength with his own eyes last night, the townspeople were discussing the power of "Mao Shan Zhenren".
Those heavenly soldiers and generals who shine with golden light and can summon thunder at random are completely different from the things he comes into contact with. This makes Mao Shanming know that Zeng Kui is not someone he can mess with.
And Mao Shanming immediately asked Dabao and Xiaobao to quickly return to the umbrella. In fact, without him having to say anything, Dabao and Xiaobao hid the moment Zeng Kui appeared.
Although Dabao and Xiaobao are ghosts, they are very spiritual. They can sense the danger from Zeng Kui, and Zeng Kui is not someone they can afford to offend.
"What can I do for you, Masato?"
Facing Zhong Kui's "affectionate" gaze, Mao Shanming couldn't help himself, so he took the initiative to ask Zeng Kui.
"I need your ghost-raising skills, and you can give me whatever price you want."
