Chapter 77 Xue Li
【Bone Woman: The evening wind and rain washed away the scorching sun. She was too lazy to look at the light makeup of the lotus flower. The thin silk of crimson silk made her skin shiny like ice. The snow was greasy and fragrant. She smiled at Wu Lang. ——When people die, the bones of the dead gather together. The evil spirits born from the essence of the moonlight can gather the essence of the living and the resentment of the dead, turning them into blood evil beads, which can turn resentment into curses and never stop until death. On every full moon night, they must feed on the blood, flesh, essence and soul of the living to maintain their human form.】
Jiang Zhou sat on the ground, looking dazed after reading the pictures on the ancient scroll.
To repay the kindness of burying your bones with your own life?
Love at first sight, happiness at first sight?
It's a ghost.
He actually saw love between a man and a ghost.
The forbidden love of Painted Skin Ghost is still vivid in our minds, and here comes another love that transcends race.
Should I lament that there are so many monsters in the world, or that the monsters are so sentimental?
The White Skeleton Woman was also a pitiful person when she was alive. Just like the ghost of the past and the Painted Skin Ghost not long ago, they were all human beings in their previous lives and suffered misfortunes.
Demonic disasters and military disasters.
It seems that the chaos in this world does not only come from demons, perhaps more disasters come from humans...
Demons are not necessarily heartless, and people are not necessarily affectionate.
The White Skeleton Woman suffered from the disaster of war and became a ghost after her death, but she still had emotions, but her emotions were only for her Wu Lang.
I have to say, the relationship between a man and a ghost is quite touching.
Wu Youzhang is so courageous...
But...so what?
After becoming the Skeleton Woman, no one knew how much flesh and blood she had devoured, and how many people she had harmed for her Wu Lang.
The most important thing is that he still wants to harm himself.
And just for such a ridiculous reason.
There is a difference between humans and ghosts. Jiang Zhou will not show mercy out of emotion, reason, and personal preference.
This is a question of stance.
As for the man surnamed Wu, perhaps he once had a kind heart, otherwise he would not have felt pity when seeing the bones scattered in the barren mountains and buried the bones and erected a monument for them.
However, the dangers of the world, the rampant material desires, the different paths of humans and ghosts, and the constant erosion and influence of the evil and grievances of the White Skeleton Woman eventually made him lose his pure kindness.
Not to mention how many shady and vicious things he had done as a merchant, just through the hands of the White Skeleton Woman, he had eliminated countless dissidents and harmed countless innocent people.
Except for his original intention towards the White Bone Woman, he is no longer the young man who felt pity when seeing the remains in the barren mountains.
I have no regrets in killing him, and I have no guilt either.
Alas, how long has it been? My heart has become so cruel without me even realizing it...
He glanced at the head on the ground, sighed, focused his mind, and continued to look at the catalog.
[Execute the Skeleton Woman and reward one Skeleton Soul-Killing Needle]
【White Bone Soul-Killing Needle: The white bone pierces the heart, kills the soul and takes the life. ——The magic weapon refined by the White Bone Woman Xuan Gu. The Xuan Gu connects to the Niwan, the root of the essence and energy, and connects to the perineum, the meeting point of the extreme yin, the place where the essence is stored and the energy is absorbed. It is formed by the White Bone Woman's moon essence, blood evil energy, and evil grievances. It is indestructible and can chase after the soul. It penetrates the body and heart, and robs people of their essence, energy, spirit and soul.】
“…”
A bone needle appeared in Jiang Zhou's hand. It was about two inches long and only slightly thicker than an embroidery needle.
It turned out to be a magic weapon, and it seemed to be quite powerful.
only……
According to the information in the atlas, the sacrum is actually the sacrum connecting the lumbar vertebrae and the coccyx.
Or the White Bone Woman's...
Is it possible that it is made immediately after it is taken?
It feels a bit weird...
Jiang Zhou weighed it and pinned the bone needle on the collar of his underwear.
This thing is not like Taiyi Wuyanluo . He does not have the ability to refine it and store it in his body.
His gaze returned to the Atlas of Ghosts and Gods, feeling a little confused.
Almost all the monsters he encountered before were transformed from bones into monsters.
There is also a record that "the spirits of the living and the resentment of the dead gather together and transform into a blood-red evil bead."
Is it a coincidence?
Jiang Zhou glanced at the two bodies on the ground, shook his dizzy head, and stood up with the help of his knife.
During this period of time, the energy and blood he had consumed were almost recovered.
He had to hurry back to check on Jin Jiu to prevent any accidents.
The things here can only wait until Su Jingsi comes over later to take care of them.
"I haven't seen you for a long time. I didn't expect you to have such ability."
Jiang Zhou had just stepped out of the room when he suddenly heard a clear and pleasant laugh.
Jiang Zhou raised .
A delicate figure came into his sight.
She was sitting on the branch of an old tree in the yard, wearing a green gauze short skirt, with a pair of white legs and bare feet dangling in the air.
Witch!
Xue Li tilted her head and looked at him with a smile: "What? It's been such a short time since we last met, and you don't recognize me?"
She bit her lips again, her eyes full of tears and resentment: "I've been thinking about you all the time."
"Xue Li."
Jiang Zhou's pupils flickered slightly, but returned to normal .
"Oh, you even found out her name secretly. It turns out you've been thinking about her for a long time."
Xue Li half bit her red lips, seeming both angry and shy.
Just this moment of charm is enough to make 99% of the men in the world fall in love with her.
No wonder she could become the most beautiful woman in Chu Yunlou and be pursued by the powerful people in Wuzhong.
Jiang Zhou's mind was turning, and a smile appeared on his face: "Miss Xue's reputation is so well-known that so many princes and nobles flock to her and dream about her. How could I not know about her when I am in Wuzhong?"
"It is so exciting to think that I had a 'one-time love' with the girl, and now she is confessing her love to me in person."
"I really didn't expect that the girl would be so infatuated with me, but I never missed her. I feel really guilty for failing to show my love for her."
"you……!"
Xue Li raised her eyebrows and grimaced in anger.
Jiang Zhou sighed, his face full of tenderness: "Don't be angry, I know you are deeply in love with me, and I will never let you down in the future."
"It's just right. Since you are here, why don't you stay tonight and spend the night with me and talk about our farewell?"
Xue Li: “…(╰_╯)#”
She stared at Jiang Zhou with gritted teeth, a cold light in her eyes.
Jiang Zhou was not afraid of her and looked at her with a smile.
This is Wu County, and he doesn't believe that this evil woman dares to start a war.
If she makes a move, he has Taiyi Wuyanluo and will not be afraid of her in the short term.
But if the Su Jingsi is alarmed, the evil woman will definitely be the one in trouble.
"hehe……"
Xue Li suddenly stopped showing any anger and gave a sweet laugh.
"You are indeed very eloquent. No wonder you can become the future disciple of the great scholar."
"I never thought that the kid who couldn't even afford food and almost starved to death in the wilderness would have such a skill."
"It's only been two short months, and I've gone from being powerless to being able to kill that skeleton woman. She's a nearly seventh-grade evil spirit."
"Even those proud sons of heaven in the Immortal Gate Holy Land are only this good. It seems that the master you mentioned is really unfathomable."
Jiang Zhou smiled and said, "My teacher is all-knowing and wise, and has lived as long as the sky. Although the universe is vast, it is only within his grasp. Naturally, there is no need for you to say more."
There was a gleam in Xue Li's eyes as she swung her bare feet.
After a while, she bit her lip and said, "You are no longer the same as you were before. You won't forget our past friendship and ignore me, will you?"
"You promised someone something, you won't go back on your word, right?"
