Volume 3: Summoning Demons Chapter 8: Chi Gan, the Unparalleled Courage
"Great!" Lu Bai stood up, feeling relaxed all over.
Since I entered the devil's land, I have felt very depressed, and now I finally feel a little relieved.
Sure enough, people have two needs for venting.
One is violent venting, and the other is venting something else.
The red-skinned monster is a good target.
The body is very flexible, just like a big ball.
The body, which was originally taller than Lu Bai, had now deflated and become the size of a human head.
After shrinking, the red-skinned monster became much more attractive and turned into a little fat red-skinned man.
After being beaten up, the fat boy became much more obedient.
Whatever Lu Bai asked, he answered honestly.
"What abilities do you have?" Lu Bai asked while holding the little red fat man.
"In reply to your words, the ability I possess is called courage."
"As long as you have enough courage, you will have endless strength."
"But once your courage is lost, your strength and size will also decrease."
"That's why every time you appear, you ask people to help brag about you." Lu Bai also understood.
The fighting power displayed by this little red fat boy is very obvious strength.
But in fact it is still something on the spiritual side.
If Lu Bai is a mage tank, then this guy is an orthodox mage.
If you have enough mental strength, your strength will continue to increase.
Of course, it is unknown to what level it can be improved to.
At least as it was before, he was no match for Lu Bai.
"Does this courage depend entirely on yourself, or on the people around you?"
“The people around me count, too.”
"The more they think the villain is powerful, the more courageous they are towards him, and the stronger he becomes."
The little red fat man answered quickly, not daring to hesitate for a moment.
"You have the ability, but why are you so timid?" Lu Bai asked the little red fat man with a smile.
"I am a coward without courage. I envy warriors like you who are brave and resourceful. That's why I have this ability."
"The previous courage was all provided by the courage of those villagers."
"Usually I stay in the jar, so I'm only this big."
During the interrogation, Lu Bai also obtained a lot of information.
The fat little red boy was originally a scholar named Chi Gan from a city called "Lu Pan" on the other side of this village.
He has been timid since he was a child. To say that he is as timid as a mouse is an insult to mice.
However, several decades ago, the imperial dynasty issued a notice saying that the world was filled with evil energy, and that violence was growing among everyone, which was a great catastrophe for the world. Under the evil energy, people's hearts became treacherous.
Today, there is a Sutra for Saving People that has been passed down, asking everyone to recite the Sutra more often to dispel their own hostility.
Chi Gan was a timid man. When he heard about the catastrophe of heaven and earth, he felt that the sky was about to fall and he was thinking about it all the time.
Then after returning home, he was so scared by the news that he couldn't sleep. He felt that there was a ghost under the bed, a ghost by the window, and a ghost in the rice jar. When he got up at night to go to the toilet, there was a ghost hand reaching out from under the toilet.
In this fright, Chi Gan shrank into the quilt, and in a daze he turned into the little red fat boy he is today.
Chi Gan heard that there was an evil-eliminating bureau in the city and was worried that the evil spirit himself would be discovered and eliminated, so he fled Lu Pan City overnight.
He hid in various towns and villages, protecting them in the name of God, and has survived until now.
"What about blood food?"
"Just some food for the cattle and sheep."
"After I became like this, I liked eating raw food even more. But I was afraid of eating humans. I thought that if I ate that person, that person would turn into a ghost and haunt me. That's why I only eat cattle and sheep."
Chi Gan explained in a low voice.
"This ability was given to you, but it's really being wasted." Lu Baidu was speechless.
According to Chi Gan, if he had the courage of a normal person, his body shape and strength would be that of a normal person.
If you have courage that surpasses others, then your physique and strength will also surpass others.
On the contrary, no matter how strong the courage of others is towards him, it can only be regarded as half of his courage at best.
The courage of all the families before was gathered in him, but it only made him two heads taller than Lu Bai.
If I were given this ability...
With this thought in mind, Lu Bai looked at the little red fat man with an increasingly dangerous look.
Chi Gan was trembling all over, looking so pitiful, and he felt that he would die here today.
But he found that Lu Bai suddenly let go of him. He fell to the ground, curled up into a ball, trembling and dared not move.
"Have you ever fought with other monsters?" Lu Bai asked.
"I've fought with them before. They usually don't know my true nature and can't do anything to me."
Lu Bai found out that Chi Gan himself was weird, and his power could touch those weird things.
Those monsters wouldn't feel good if they were hit by his punch.
In addition, Chi Gan himself had no desire for expansion and only guarded one village, so most of the weirdos did not bother him, which also allowed him to maintain his reputation as a "God".
The surrounding villagers were respectful and courageous to him.
It is now difficult to extract modules, or it has returned to normal difficulty.
By killing this little red fat man, you might be able to get a courage module, but the quality may not be very high, and you may have to waste special extraction points to improve the quality of the module.
But thinking that an entire skill can be built from one module is overthinking.
And to be honest, this courage module can really help me take my strength to a higher level.
But it is of no help to Lu Bai's current predicament.
If all the enemies were like this little red fat guy, that would be fine.
Unfortunately, this little red fat boy may be a special case.
"I'll let you go for now." Lu Bai kicked the little red fat man and said, "Go gather the villagers. I have something to ask them."
"Okay!" The little red fat boy agreed immediately and ran out with his short legs.
Lu Bai returned to the village, and soon all the families were called over.
The little red fat man was following Lu Bai in a servile manner at this time.
At this time, those families were standing on the edge of the field in fear and trepidation.
Especially the man who had confronted Lu Bai before, his face changed suddenly at this moment.
"I'll just ask you some questions. Answer them truthfully and I won't do anything to you."
Now these people can hear what people say.
After Lu Bai inquired about the situation, he learned that of the people who escaped from Lijia Village, only five or six people crossed the forest and came here.
These people didn't dare to approach the forest anymore and all ran to Lupan City.
This happened .
As for Li Du, they couldn't recognize which one he was.
"In that case, we're even now." After seeing these people tell everything they knew, Lu Bai was too lazy to cause trouble for these villagers.
This world is polluted by demons. If you shout and kill at will, you might end up causing something weird, and then you'll be in trouble.
Lu Bai picked up the little red fat boy and left.
The remaining villagers, looking at the empty jars, felt that a disaster was imminent.
At this time, in the distant woods, there were a few more sounds of birds flying.
