I Really Am Not The Lord of Demon Chapter 387 - the Best Guest

Chapter 387: the Best Guest

Mei Qing soon arrived in front of a withered mountain.

This mountain was straight and high, reaching into the clouds.

The poisonous water flowed down from the mountain stream.

In the mountain range, the poisonous barrier was everywhere.

Just by getting close, Mei Qing could feel endless resentment roaring in it.

“I have never done evil in my lives…”

“Why did I end up like this? !”

“The heavens are unfair!”

“The Immortals and Buddhas are unfair!”

It was the roar of the remnant soul of a great demon that had died hundreds of years ago!

For hundreds of years, its resentment had cursed this land.

It had caused the poisonous water to flow and not a single blade of gra.s.s to grow!

Mei Qing felt the towering resentment and the vicious curse.

She took a deep breath and slowly approached.

When she reached the foot of the mountain, two cl.u.s.ters of green ghost fires suddenly appeared.

They surrounded her and attacked her from both sides.

Mei Qing was prepared. She grabbed a bunch of talismans with both hands.

“Heaven and Earth Xuanzong, the root of ten thousand Qi!” She chanted in a deep voice, “Five G.o.ds protect the body and use lightning!”

Lightning appeared in the talismans.

The two b.a.l.l.s of ghostly fire were hit so hard that their bodies became scattered and they wailed endlessly.

They immediately instinctively ran towards the poison barrier in the mountain stream.

Mei Qing did not chase after them either!

Her goal was not to kill these evil creatures at all because they could not be killed!

They were the remnants of souls that had already died and were contaminated and distorted by the evil scripture.

With her strength and cultivation, being able to repel and drive them away was already a blessing from the heavens and the reason why she had made sufficient preparations.

Otherwise, the result would be reversed.

“I must hurry!” She thought as she stepped into the poison barrier.

At the same time, she lit up the incense stick she carried with her.

No matter what, she had to leave this place before the incense burned out.

Otherwise, it would be easy to encounter unpredictable omens.

Mei Qing took a deep breath and activated the turtle breath technique.

She strode into the poison barrier and stuck two bright eyes talismans on her eyes at the same time.

Within the poison barrier, one’s vision was limited and ordinary Daoist techniques were useless.

One could only rely on these simple bright eyes talismans to peek at the things within an inch of s.p.a.ce and search for the most precious thing in this place.

Just like in that highly toxic place, within seven steps, there would definitely be an antidote.

Leopard Head Mountain was the source of poison in the Yuhua Prefecture.

It also bred holy objects that could remove curses and remove filth!

These holy objects were born from the poison barrier and fed on resentment.

It could be said that they were untainted by filth!

This was also the reason why Leopard Head Mountain, although dangerous, had countless people coming one after another every year.

Mei Qing walked forward quickly, moving forward quickly from the already deserted mountain path.

Suddenly…

Her foot stepped on something.

It seemed to be an artifact?

Mei Qing squatted down and picked up the item. She touched the patterns on it.

It was a rusty iron token.

There were words on it. Mei Qing closed her eyes and sensed it. She knew that it was a token.

The words ‘weird and tricky’ were written on it.

It seemed to have been left behind by the little demons that patrolled the mountains under the gate of the great demons here.

And the moment she knew the words on the token, Mei Qing’s eyes became dazed.

The poison barrier in front of her seemed to have disappeared.

The green mountains and green waters had returned.

The jade gra.s.s spread at the foot of the mountain, the pines trees, old cypresses and the ancient trees cultivated in the Huang Mountains. The elk pair at the bottom of the cliff and the badger fox pair at the front of the cliff.

It was indeed a place like a paradise!

In a trance, the green mountains, green waters, and the quiet and peaceful place had already disappeared.

The poisonous barrier in front of her was filled with resentment.

“D*mn it!” Mei Qing cursed in her heart. “How could I be distracted?”

Being distracted here was no different from seeking death!

She hurriedly looked at the incense. Fortunately, only about a quarter of it had been burned.

She immediately continued forward. However, after taking a few steps, she saw something standing in front of the poison barrier.

Mei Qing immediately turned around and left.

However…

That thing appeared in front of her again.

“D*mn it!” Mei Qing’s heart trembled, “I’m afraid I’ve encountered… something ominous!”

There were all sorts of omens and oddities in a place as venomous as Leopard Head Mountain.

These things were born from resentment and were conceived through the chaotic method of the evil scripture.

It was the most bizarre thing!

Once they met it, there was almost no chance of survival!

Even if they were lucky enough to escape, there would be all kinds of disasters and curses that would accompany them for life!

Helplessly, Mei Qing could only stop and try the only way to escape – to talk to it.

In the past, these ominous and weird things all followed a certain way of behavior.

As long as the answer was correct, there was a one in ten thousand chance of escaping.

Thus, she mustered her courage and slowly walked forward.

When she saw the thing inside the poison barrier, she turned around.

“Weird and Tricky!” It seemed to have taken Mei Qing as the owner of the token. “How many pigs and sheep did you buy?”

Mei Qing’s heart trembled!

She knew that she had encountered the most terrifying kind of ominous!

She was obsessed with the past, yet it existed in the present.

She was reborn from the hatred of poison, born from self-hatred.

She was born with great supernatural powers and was crafty and strange.

Mei Qing looked at it, and it looked at Mei Qing.

Seeing that Mei Qing did not answer, its body gradually twisted.

“Weird and Tricky! Why don’t you answer my words?” The sounds of resentment gradually became gloomy and cold.

Obviously, Mei Qing knew that if she didn’t answer, she might die here.

Mei Qing had no choice but to answer, “I. . . I didn’t buy it!”

“You didn’t buy it?” His voice became normal again, “What’s the matter? The King didn’t give you enough money?”

“Yes!” Mei Qing could only say, “The money the King gave me was not enough to buy pigs and sheep!”

“You don’t know how much the price of pigs and sheep have grown nowadays!”

As he said these words, Mei Qing felt a strong sense of incongruity in her heart!

Leopard Head Mountain used to be the residence of great demons. Now, it was the source of all the oddities and omens.

However…

This strange omen revealed a piece of information in the question: the great demons of Leopard Head Mountain would actually abide by the rules and would actually pay money to buy and sell pigs and sheep?

Shouldn’t they rob people when they see them?

Shouldn’t they bully men and women?

How could they possibly spend money to buy things?

Then, she heard the strange voice within the poison barrier said, “If that’s the case, then go and deliver the invitation for me!”

He slowly walked over. In his twisted and withered hand, he held a rotten and broken box.

He handed the box to Mei Qing, “Hurry up and go!”

“Go to the Bamboo Mountain and invite old King to be our honourable guest!”

“I’ll go buy the pig and sheep!”

As it said that, it turned its head and walked towards the depths of the poison barrier.

Mei Qing’s hands trembled and her entire body was drenched in sweat.

She knew that she had encountered the most terrifying of all the strange and ominous events: being entrusted by it!

To the monsters, the entrusted matter had to be completed!

Otherwise…

Heaven and earth…

There was no place to hide!

At the same time, she felt extremely fortunate in her heart.

Because, although this kind of terror was terrifying, it was extremely rare.

It could only be encountered when those ominous monsters were completely immersed in the past.

Moreover, as long as they completed their entrusted thing, they would definitely receive their goodwill.

In the future, she could even obtain their help.

At the very least, she could receive their protection.

There was once a person who completed a strange task. From then on, she safely went deep into an evil mountain and gathered all kinds of sacred objects to protect a region!

However…

Once she failed to complete the task, the person who failed to fulfill the task would definitely die without a burial ground!

Mei Qing panted heavily.

The broken and rotten lacquer box in her hand made her feel like she was holding a hot potato.

“Forget it! Forget it!” She thought, “I’ll give it a try even if I have to risk my life!”

But now, she needed to find the holy object that grew here as soon as possible and bring it back.

Because…

Her master was waiting for the holy object to save life!

Thinking of her master, she had no more scruples.

She was saved by her master. If it weren’t for her master’s mercy, she would have been put into the steamer.

In this evil world, evil wasn’t the only thing that harmed people. The earth was poisonous.

The morally corrupt human beings and the hungry human beings…

Were even more terrifying than evil and weird!

At least, evil and weird existed in one place.

However, human beings could roam the earth and commit all kinds of evil!

“Hmm?” Mei Qing turned around and saw a puddle of clear water where the weird thing first appeared.

She walked over and saw a few silver-white fish about the size of a palm swimming in the clear water.

“Immortal spiritual crucian carp!” Mei Qing was overjoyed. She immediately squatted down and caught the crucian carp.

Then, she took out a red cloth covered with talismans and wrapped the crucian carp up.

At the same time, she picked up a gourd and filled it with clear water.

She was overjoyed!

“This immortal spiritual crucian carp is a good thing!”

Legend had it that the immortal spiritual crucian carp was a fish that was purified by resentment.

One of them could detoxify a hundred poisons and remove a thousand evils. It was the most magical thing!

And the spiritual water that accompanied it could make people feel refreshed and nourished the G.o.ds in their bodies, making people not afraid of the invasion of evil spirits!

On the market, these two items were priceless treasures.

After the calabash was filled with water, the puddle on the ground disappeared into thin air.

Mei Qing stood up happily.

However, a weird exhortation came to her ears, “Weird and Tricky, hurry up and come back!”

“Your Majesty, we can’t go without old King tomorrow at the Pitching and Raking Fair!”

Mei Qing’s body shook violently!

She understood that the weird thing was right next to her, looking at her from all sides.

And this puddle of clear water and the immortal spiritual crucian carp in the water was the reward it had paid!

It was not immersed in the past!

It knew everything!

Mei Qing hurriedly replied, “Okay, okay!”

She could only agree!

“Then go quickly!”

“Yes!” Mei Qing ran forward as if she was running for her life.

The incense in her hand quickly burned.

She soon discovered that she was not walking on the path out of the mountain.

Instead, she was walking along a strange and rugged mountain path towards another strange and terrifying mountain!

The roar of resentment in the mountain was ten times that of Leopard Head Mountain!

“I’ll die!” Mei Qing thought.

She knew that she had become the connection between the two sources of evil poison.

She had become a part of their magic art.

Usually, such a person would eventually become a strange and ominous person.

She would become truly ‘Weird and Tricky’.

She would be possessed by her parasite!

But…

She had no choice!

Because her feet were no longer able to do as she was told.

Puff!

At a certain moment, her body seemed to have broken through a layer of barrier.

Everything before her eyes changed in an instant.

And her entire person appeared in another world.

There was no resentment, no poisonous water, and even less ominous.

There was only fog in front of her!

“What is this place?” Mei Qing asked in confusion.

She lowered her head and looked at the thing in her hand.

The damaged and rotten lacquer box seemed to be undergoing some changes in the fog.

The broken lacquer box slowly closed up.

The traces of decay were slowly disappearing.

Its former color and appearance were returning.

A moment later, the lacquer box was overflowing with seven colors.

The rusted and tattered token in Mei Qing’s hand had also recovered.

On the green token, three words could be clearly seen:Weird and tricky.

Mei Qing gulped. She knew that she might have been involved in an even more terrifying incident.

…

Ling Ping’an stretched lazily!

He looked at the clock hanging on the wall. It was 11:30!

“Wuhu!” He twisted his neck and looked at the number of words on the doc.u.ment. It was exactly 2000 words.

Very good!

As expected of the sixth white after five Whites of the Central Plains!

He gave himself a thumbs up in his heart.

“Time to sleep!” He turned off the computer and stood up.

The kitten in the corner of the counter immediately jumped down.

“Eh…” Ling Ping’an looked out of the door, “It’s foggy again!”

“Could it be that there will be customers coming tonight?” He couldn’t help looking forward to it.

In his memory, it seemed that most of his customers came in the middle of the night in this kind of fog.

The fog must have forced these customers who came back late to find his bookstore.

Buying books was fake, borrowing flashlights was real…

But…

Ling Ping’an didn’t care.

Who cared what the reason was?

To be able to come in and spend money would be the best customer!
