Chapter 252: Nanshan Ghost
After Chen Yile finished checking the information, he planned to investigate first.
After all, given Lin Feihong's current condition, it would take at least a week for them to act together.
Maybe after a week, everyone will be able to practice and leave.
So, taking advantage of the night, Chen Yile packed up his magic tools and went directly to Nanshan.
After getting off the bus on the ring road and walking up the mountain, I found that the place was indeed filled with a strong yin energy.
It was easy to find a place where there was dirt, and Chen Yile soon found a cave.
The cave was hidden deep in a desolate mountain range.
The surrounding trees were all sickly, with sparse, yellow branches and leaves, and they were all growing crookedly towards the cave, as if they were frightened by the evil spirit in the cave.
The entrance to the cave was tangled with vines.
From a distance, it looked like a monster hiding in the dark, emitting a disgusting stench that seemed to come from hell.
Chen Yile held a demon-subduing pestle in his hand and a soul-calming bell hung around his waist.
He walked carefully into the dark and damp cave.
This cave is filled with too much negative energy.
He silently chanted the Taoist mantra of clearing the mind in his heart to keep himself awake.
Water droplets continued to seep out of the stone walls of the cave.
The dripping sound was particularly scary in the quiet cave, as if something evil was whispering, and every drop of water that fell was like a countdown to the coming danger.
The light of the torch flickered violently in the darkness.
I feel like I'll be swallowed by darkness at any moment.
Not long after entering the cave, a cold wind blew.
The wind cut Chen Yile like an ice knife, and the torch shook violently and almost went out.
Chen Yile's heart tightened.
He felt like something was watching him from the dark.
Then there was a slight rustling sound.
It sounded like old paper being dragged across the ground, or like fingernails scratching a stone wall, and it could be heard particularly clearly in this quiet cave.
He held the pestle tightly.
His eyes were fixed on the direction where the sound came from, and all the muscles in his body were tense, like a leopard ready to pounce on its prey.
He knew this was a sign that evil was about to appear.
Suddenly, a figure appeared in the darkness.
It gradually became clear that it was a woman wearing a torn windbreaker and a mask. Isn't this the legendary slit-mouthed woman in Japan?
She was like a ghost emerging from the darkness.
The air around them suddenly became icy cold.
Her windbreaker was in tatters.
The corners of his clothes fluttered in the wind. The clothes underneath were very old, stained with dirt, and emitted a faint stench.
The slit-mouthed woman slowly raised her head.
There was a coldness in her eyes behind the mask.
She asked hoarsely, "Who are you? How dare you trespass into my territory?"
Chen Yile raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "Oh, this place is yours? Then you are a bit incompetent, making it so gloomy and scary. Let me help you renovate it."
The slit-mouthed woman sneered.
The laughter echoed in the cave, like many wronged souls crying, "Do you think you can deal with me?"
As she spoke, she slowly approached Chen Yile.
With every step she took, a cloud of dust rose from the ground, swirling around her feet.
She walked up to Chen Yile and tilted her head.
In a strange voice, he asked, "Am I beautiful?"
Chen Yile covered his eyes exaggeratedly and said, "Oh, you look quite shocking. It's easy to scare the children when you come out at night."
He did not let his guard down. He immediately swung the demon-subduing pestle and chanted the thunder spell: "Thunder Ancestor, thunder magic descends to the world, destroying evil and filth, and deterring ghosts and monsters."
I saw a flash of lightning on the demon-subduing pestle.
Like a sword falling from the sky, it stabbed towards the woman with the slit mouth.
The slit-mouthed woman dodged.
Turned into a black shadow and disappeared into the darkness.
Chen Yile curled his lips.
I thought to myself that this woman with the slit mouth was quite cunning.
He looked around warily.
I felt like there were many eyes staring at me in the darkness, and my back was crawling with goosebumps.
Just as he was staring ahead, he suddenly felt a chill behind him.
It was like a cold snake crawling up my spine.
He turned quickly.
I found that the slit-mouthed woman appeared behind me at some point.
She has taken off her mask.
The corners of his mouth were cracked to the roots of his ears, revealing a big hole. There was a foul smell in his mouth, and he let out a terrifying shrill laugh.
She thrust out her hands.
The nails became long and sharp, flashing with cold light, and pounced towards Chen Yile. The nails were like the scythe of the god of death.
Chen Yile was not in a hurry.
A layer of golden light shone from his body, which was the indestructible body he gained from practicing Taoist exercises.
The Slit-Mouthed Woman scratched at him with her nails.
It was like grabbing onto iron, sparks flew everywhere, flashing in the darkness and illuminating a small area.
Chen Yile took the opportunity to swing the demon-subduing pestle.
The demon-subduing pestle, with its powerful magic power, hit the shoulder of the slit-mouthed woman at once.
The slit-mouthed woman screamed.
The sound buzzed in the cave, then turned into a puff of black smoke and disappeared.
But Chen Yile knew.
She definitely won't be eliminated so easily, she will definitely come back.
This is what evil is.
I won't give up until I achieve my goal.
Chen Yile continued to walk deeper into the cave.
The further we went in, the colder and wetter it became, and the chill seemed to penetrate into our bones.
He felt the road beneath his feet become muddy.
Every step he took was difficult, as if he had stepped into a swamp, or as if many hands were pulling at his legs.
Suddenly, he heard a low growling sound.
The sound seemed to come from the depths of hell, echoing in the cave and making his head hurt.
He saw pairs of red eyes flashing like will-o'-the-wisp in the darkness ahead.
As the eyes got closer, an Inugami appeared.
This dog god is huge.
The hair stood up like needles, and the eyes glowed red, revealing hatred and greed.
Its fangs were exposed.
It was like a sharp dagger, covered with mucus and emitting a pungent fishy smell.
Where it appeared, there were deep scratches on the stone wall.
There seemed to be blood in the scratches, like a mark of its anger.
The dog god barked wildly at Chen Yile.
The sound was deafening and echoed in the cave.
Then it pounced.
A fishy wind blew up, almost making Chen Yile vomit.
Chen Yile frowned and said, "Hey, your breath stinks like you've eaten a rotten rat. Stay away from me."
After saying that, he quickly shook the soul-calming bell, which made a clear sound that could drive away evil spirits, just like the bell in a temple.
The Inugami paused in mid-air.
But he soon pounced on him again, with a hint of cunning in his eyes, as if he was mocking Chen Yile.
Chen Yile used thunder magic.
He thought to himself, "Once the thunder magic is released, no evil creature can escape," and bolts of lightning struck the dog god.
Thunder and lightning cut through the darkness.
Lightning up a corner of the cave, the Inugami looked even scarier under the thunder and lightning.
Although the Inugami was struck by lightning.
But it was very strong and stood firm after just a few swayings.
It cunningly went around behind Chen Yile.
Biting his neck.
However, Chen Yile was not worried at all.
The dog god bit him, and his teeth almost broke. He jumped back with a whimper in pain, his eyes full of anger and unwillingness.
