Chapter 005: Martial Arts Prodigy
Lu Xun's words of comfort obviously had no effect. When Ji Li heard that it was a ghost, she became even more panicked.
Although she was just a child of Jianghu, she had heard a lot of rumors. When she was a child, she especially liked to go to teahouses to listen to storytellers telling all kinds of interesting stories, and she was particularly yearning for these magical things.
But now that it really happened, she was a little overwhelmed.
Ghost! This is a ghost!
Ji Li was not timid , but she knew that she could not defeat the group of people chasing her with her own strength. However, this phantom killed them all easily!
It’s a pity that she couldn’t stop Lu Xun now, because the shadow seemed to sense something and began to float towards this side.
Its speed increased, and its expression became more and more ferocious, changing from ╭(°A°`)╮ to (；丨Д丨`).
Don’t you think it’s scary?
A large amount of black mist was flowing down from the empty eyeballs, as if they were shedding dark tears.
Ji Li gritted her teeth, drew out the wedding dress sword in her hand, and turned sideways to block Lu Xun.
She is a descendant of the righteous martial arts sect. Her parents have taught her to be a qualified female knight since she was a child. Protecting the weak is the most basic chivalrous virtue. Of course, Lu Xun is good-looking, and protecting beautiful things is also human instinct.
The shadow was getting closer and closer to the two of them. When Lu Xun saw that the distance was almost right, he suddenly shouted loudly: "Hold your breath!"
Ji Li was already nervous, and Lu Xun suddenly spoke so loudly that she was startled and felt even more wronged.
But she still held her breath obediently, because it was because of Lu Xun's words that the shadow passed by them directly and nothing happened.
The moment Lu Xun and Ji Li held their breath, the shadow stopped.
It was already confused, and now it looks even more confused.
That's what Blackie is like. As long as you don't breathe, it's okay for you to dance in front of it.
And once you find the right method, this thing is very easy to kill!
Lu Xun held his breath, walked closer quickly, then raised his hands, stretched out his two slender fingers, and poked towards its empty eyes!
That's the essence of it.
As long as it is stabbed, it will be injured.
If it's stabbed deep enough, it could kill the person in one blow!
"Swish!" He almost stabbed it wrong.
The black fog around the phantom began to spread, looking a bit hideous.
As Lu Xun moved, its figure began to twist.
The degree of distortion is so great that even yoga masters cannot twist it into this state.
“He didn’t stab her to death?” Lu Xun was stunned for a moment, pulled out his finger, and stabbed her again.
This time it was finally done in one step.
The black fog spread rapidly and then exploded in all directions like a ball of black fireworks.
The black fog from the explosion slowly dissipated, and it was considered a kill.
"[Ding! Kill the mountain ghost and gain 666 experience points!]"
Lu Xun was overjoyed. It turned out that he could still kill monsters and level up just like in the game!
This thing jokingly called Black Fool by players is called Mountain Ghost by Tianchen, but look at the experience value it gives, the number is so auspicious, what else could it be but a mobile experience gift package given to lucky players?
Looking at my character panel again at this moment, the experience value column has become [666/100], marked [Upgradable].
Although it was written that way, Lu Xun was unwilling to upgrade directly.
The reason is simple, he doesn't know any martial arts now.
As mentioned before, Sky Dust doesn’t feel like a game to players, but more like a real world.
Players here are just like they are actually practicing, and the so-called upgrade is nothing more than improving their own practice methods.
To give the simplest example, if Lu Xun now has a Qi Refining Technique, and he reaches level one, that is the first level of Qi Refining, and level nine is the ninth level.
Therefore, Lu Xun cares a lot about his start. Since they are all leveling up, learning skills becomes particularly important!
Although there is no visible effect in the early stage, it is still very obvious in the middle and late stages.
If you upgrade directly without any skills, it would be a real waste.
After dealing with this black fool, Lu Xun clapped his hands and put his fingers next to his nose to smell: "Well, fortunately there is no peculiar smell."
Ji Li watched him kill a mountain ghost with mixed feelings.
She even began to doubt whether this man was an ordinary person.
But when I kidnapped him, he didn't show any intention of resisting?
Come to think of it, he just killed a mountain ghost with the snap of his fingers, which was quite cool ...
Lu Xun had no intention of explaining, but was surprised to find that Ji Li's favorability seemed to have increased by several points.
“Isn’t it too easy to gain favor with this girl?” Lu Xun was a little confused.
Those who don’t know would think that “Tianchen” is a not very harmonious game.
Lu Xun stood there, thought for a while, and then walked towards the east.
Ji Li hurriedly followed. The appearance of the mountain ghost still frightened her. She couldn't help but ask, "Where... where are you going?"
"Go pick up some equipment." Lu Xun said with a smile.
Ji Li didn't understand at first, but when she looked at the direction Lu Xun was going, she realized that he was going to dig up the corpse.
All the people who were chasing her were dead, just lying there.
After counting, there were seven people lying there, six men and one woman.
Their expressions were all very hideous, and it seemed that they died in great pain.
His face was pale, and his skin and muscles were a little atrophied.
Ji Li couldn't help but shudder. If Lu Xun hadn't been there, she might have become one of them.
As for why Lu Xun watched them die... it was because he accidentally took a glance before and found that several of the seven people were "red names", which meant that they were all extremely evil people.
Lu Xun had no intention of avoiding the corpse. He glanced forward and saw information about a lot of items.
"[A total of 97 taels of silver]"
"[An ordinary long sword]"
"[A replica of Nishangfang's outer robe]"
"[A short gun with low durability]"
…
Lu Xun couldn't help but think in his heart: "Tsk tsk, this gun is short, and its durability is also low."
All the equipment is made of the lowest grade ordinary iron, but it is sharp.
Finally, he collected all the silver and money, then took out a dagger that was easy to carry and a long sword that looked the most expensive.
He could sell other things in the city for some money, but it would be a bit inconvenient for him.
The heavy hammers and iron rods used by martial artists often weigh dozens of pounds. How could a level 0 player like him handle them?
It's fine to pick it up and swing it a few times, but then you still have to travel a long distance.
So he turned his head to look at Ji Li and said, "Whatever you want."
Ji Li happily picked up the sledgehammer and iron rod. She was really strong!
Although her veil covered half of her face, the exposed eyes were already curved with a smile, and her face was filled with these words: "I'm rich, I'm rich!"
She had no idea about the money. After all, she would die without Lu Xun, so the money would naturally be his.
But if Lu Xun doesn't want these weapons, she will definitely take them all!
It's a bit pitiful that the former eldest daughter has fallen into such a state.
What surprised Lu Xun was that there was a secret book in one of the man’s packages. It was a finger technique called “Eagle Finger”.
Lu Xun picked it up and flipped through it a few times, and then a prompt popped up: [Do you want to study?]
You can’t practice martial arts blindly, but you can learn more skills. There is no upper limit, so Lu Xun chose [Yes].
“【You have learned Eagle Finger (Beginner’s Guide).”
He stretched out his fingers and moved them twice at high speed in the air, and it actually took on some shape.
"Oh! My fingers are quite powerful!" Lu Xun was having fun.
All of this fell into Ji Li's eyes, and she couldn't help but open her mouth slightly.
"How come this man looks so good after only looking at the secret book two or three times?!"
Could this be the martial arts genius that my parents mentioned, a rare once-in-a-century talent?
"[Favorability +1...+1...+1...]"
Lu Xun: “???”
…
