You have mastered the art of thunder and you tell me that it is in a strange world?

Chapter 131 Counter Curse
The so-called Tianzi room in the small inn in the small town was not a luxurious place. It was just a little bigger and the bedding was a little newer, and there was no other special feature. Zuo Chen did not sleep either. He just sat cross-legged on the bed and digested the wonderful experience of today.

Cocks crow in the thatched tavern under the moon, and human footprints are seen on the frosty wooden bridge.

The sun has risen, shining into the city, warming the surrounding scenery.

Nothing happened overnight.

Zuo Chen sighed softly after finishing his meditation.

such a pity.

Nowadays, people who use prescriptions to harm others are very cautious. It is obvious that the yin energy is stronger at night, so it is most appropriate to do some yin methods, but nothing happens.

You have to fight for it!
He sighed helplessly and came out of the room. Caiyi had woken up, her hair was slightly moistened, and it seemed that she had washed her face with water in a copper basin. She was standing at the stairs waiting for Zuo Chen.

After paying the bill with the proprietress, he walked out of the inn.

When he arrived at the door, Donkey was eating radish leisurely. He ran into the group of warriors again. They were all leading their horses and seemed to be leaving.

But for some reason these horses stopped listening. Their two pairs of bean-like eyes just stared sideways at the donkey not far away. The warriors tried their best to pull the horses' heads but failed. They could only circle around the horses, scratching their heads and unable to figure out what was going on.

"What's wrong with this horse? Is it sick?"

"Who the hell knows? Oh, my dear, you cost me ten taels of silver! How could I spend so much money on you if you weren't a escort? Did you eat something bad yesterday, or did you not sleep well? Move!"

After hearing what these warriors said, Zuo Chen subconsciously glanced at Donkey Master. Donkey Master turned his head to the side a little embarrassedly and snorted. The horses immediately felt relieved and made some distance.

Several warriors suddenly felt that the reins felt smooth and the horses obeyed their instructions. However, they were completely confused and had no idea what was going on.

He was muttering to himself but couldn't bear to draw his horse, so he could only mount the horse and prepare to leave with a lot of questions in his mind.

The man surnamed Miao also got on the horse, and his eyes couldn't help but fall on Zuo Chen and Cai Yi behind him, and he looked at them twice.

After seeing the other party get on the donkey cart and walk towards the dense forest, he pulled the reins and rode his horse to catch up with his companions at their calls.

When they were walking side by side, his fellow warriors laughed and scolded him:
"What's wrong with you? Why are you staring at me?"

"Aren't you curious about what happened yesterday? The master asked the Taoist priest to kill a demon or exorcise a monster! The place he went to was a dense forest. Who do you think he was going to kill?"

"I'm not curious. Don't ask about government affairs. When you were in Kyoto, you kept asking about things. We brothers went through so much trouble to get you out. Be more careful!"

This sentence immediately silenced the man. After holding his anger in for a long time, he finally just sighed and didn't dwell on this matter any more.

He has already gotten into a lot of trouble because of his curiosity, and it was all helped by the group of friends around him. He should just control his ears and mouth and stop talking nonsense.

But even though he thought so in his heart, he still couldn't help but let his imagination run wild.

The Taoist priest went into the forest to slay monsters, and he could earn a lot of money by compiling the script.

……

When the donkey cart was leaving the city, the soldiers stopped the two of them and asked a lot of questions, which were nothing more than "What are you going to do in the big dense forest?", "How many days will you be gone?", "It's dangerous in the big dense forest", "Don't enter certain strange villages" and so on.

After several warnings, the soldiers guarding the gate finally let the two leave.

"These soldiers are really dedicated to their duties!" Caiyi couldn't help but sigh: "This kind of thing is unimaginable in Qingzhou. The soldiers of Prince Shou are busy drinking and eating meat every day. They don't care about anything that happens below. It's nothing like Youzhou."

He sighed again:
"Back then I heard that King Wei was a good person. I was just joking. How good could he be? At most he would pay a few cents less in rent when paying grain. Now let's compare and see that King Wei is indeed capable."

Zuo Chen also nodded.

Although some flaws can still be seen, King Wei has indeed done a good job in this world.

When the time comes, I will meet him and have a talk with him. It would be a good thing if I could get him to cooperate with Xiao Changcheng and others.

Just as he was about to play with the two little kids in his sleeves who were rolling on the ground in boredom, Mr. Donkey had already stepped into the edge of the dense forest.

At this moment, Zuo Chen's fingers, which were teasing the doll, paused slightly.

He felt a huge vitality rushing towards him.

The trees all around are tall, blocking out the sun. The moment you enter the forest, it's like two different worlds inside and outside.

Outside the woods, Zuo Chen could only hear the sound of the wind, the sound of soldiers training, the noise of vendors coming out of the city, and the midday sun hanging high above his head, casting its scorching light on the entire earth.

After entering the forest, he heard the sounds of birds, animals, and water. The round sun seemed to be blocked by the barrier formed by these towering trees, leaving only a few golden fragments falling.

He stretched out his hand and swept it directly across the big tree next to him, and Zuo Chen suddenly understood something.

This entire dense forest seems to be a whole living organism!

Even someone with Zuo Chen's cultivation level felt a little shocked.

I've heard before that the entire jungle covers a huge area, spanning three states. So based on this calculation, if this is really the body of a living creature, how big would it be?
"Master? What's wrong?" Seeing Zuo Chen's expression change several times, Caiyi beside him couldn't help but feel a little confused.

"……Nothing."

Zuo Chen withdrew his hand from the tree.

He couldn't sense any "alive" atmosphere in the forest.

It doesn't mean that the tree is fake or the water is fake, but that the giant creature that serves as the carrier has been dead for a long time.

It seems that there are more secrets in this dense forest than he imagined.

He gathered his thoughts and stopped thinking about the various secrets in the dense forest for the time being. He opened the map and took a look at the path. If he continued walking straight ahead on this path, he would probably reach the gambling village in no time.

Zuo Chen couldn't help but get excited. There must be someone on this road who can help him out, right?

……

"Is that the Taoist priest?"

"Yes, the one next to her is my great aunt."

"You look really young."

"Don't be fooled by their faces. They are definitely two old guys who used some disguises to keep their youth. If they were really that young, I would take my head off and kick it like a ball!" Li Dachun pouted, "Stop talking nonsense and show us your weapons! It's time to deal with them!"

The two people next to him also responded and took out items from their arms.

The skinny old man took out a small jar, which is commonly seen in the hands of young masters in Kyoto. It is usually used to play with crickets and is considered an elegant gambling game.

The village woman took out a cage made of bamboo strips. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a pig cage.

However, there were a lot of bloodstains on the top of the cage, as if someone was reaching out from inside, struggling to tear the cage open, but eventually died inside with his skin torn and flesh exposed.

The last one is Li Dachun.

He took out a gourd from his arms.

Seeing that both of them were looking at him, Li Dachun just smiled.

"This is a new treasure I begged for. It was sold to me by a fat monk with a big smile on his face. He said it was a replica of a magic treasure. All you need to do is say a spell to it and it will cut off the person's scalp. I tried it on a few people who couldn't afford to pay me any money. The effect is really good. It can even cut off the heads of the innate!"

After hearing what Li Dachun said, the other two stopped talking and just waited for the Taoist priest to enter their attack range.

Seeing the Taoist priest pulling the donkey getting closer and closer, the three men became inexplicably nervous, and even their breathing became a little rapid.

Li Dachun stared the most closely, his eyes fixed on the Taoist priest.

Suddenly, he felt the corners of the Taoist's mouth slightly raised.

It seems like he is laughing!
Li Dachun was shocked and immediately guessed that the other party must have discovered him, so he shouted directly:
"Do it!"

Following his command, the old man first opened the cricket cage in his hand, and saw a black shadow flashing inside, circling in the air, and then rushed towards the Taoist priest, leaving a long black line.

The woman also shook her hands, and the entire pig cage flew into the air.

The pig cage that was originally used to hold piglets expanded rapidly. In the blink of an eye, it became like a dragnet and smashed directly towards the donkey cart.

Finally, Li Dachun shouted to the gourd:
"Please baby, turn around!"

Immediately, a small flying knife flew out from his gourd.

Then Li Dachun could clearly see that when the Taoist saw the cricket, he didn't react at all. When he saw the pig cage, the Taoist didn't react at all. When he heard "Please turn around, baby", the Taoist seemed to look at him subconsciously.

then……

The three objects turned around in the air and all smashed towards Li Dachun!

Li Dachun: “?”

Before he could react, the cricket hit him directly. The little insect quickly flew into his clothes. Then Li Dachun felt a heart-wrenching pain in his skin.

It seemed as if the little fellow had drilled directly through his skin and started gnawing at his flesh.

Li Dachun opened his mouth and screams could not stop coming out of him. He subconsciously wanted to jump up and run into the woods to hide, but the next moment, a huge pig cage fell down and trapped him inside.

Although the pig cage is big, it is very short. Li Dachun is tall himself, so he can only curl up his body in the pig cage and lie on the ground like a dog.

He looked up blankly, and before he could react, he saw the flying knife spin in the air, then whoosh into the cage and slash along his neck.

"Bah."

The head rolled off the neck to the ground and turned several times, with the eyes still open.

This scene happened so fast that the skinny old man and the village woman didn't react at all. They just felt that the baby they had raised with great difficulty was out of their control in an instant and turned around.

His head fell to the ground and blinked twice, as if he wanted to ask: "How did this thing come back?"

Of course, in the end no sound was made.

When he came to his senses, Li Dachun was already dead.

They both broke out in cold sweats immediately.

So Li Dachun’s shout of “Baby, turn around” has this effect?

You have to run quickly, or you will die!

The two of them turned around hurriedly and rushed into the woods.

But when they turned around, they found that the Taoist priest who was sitting on the donkey cart just now was standing behind them with a smile.

"It's a long journey. Where are you two going?"
