Chapter 257: Sowing Beans to Make Soldiers
Chapter 257: Scattering Beans to Make Soldiers
What surprised Yang Linger was the colorful cloud condensed above Baili Yuan's head. This was a sign of the three flowers gathering at the top of the head and the five qi returning to the origin.
Yang Linger knew very well that Baili Yuan might have reached the peak of the seventh level of the Out-of-Body Realm, and even had one foot in the eighth level of the Spiritual Silence Realm.
Judging from the thickness and color of the colorful cloud, Baili Yuan might be able to completely stand firm in the Spiritual Silence Realm within ten years.
"It is true that there is no falsehood under the reputation. Baili Yuan's Taoism is not inferior to mine. If I meet her on the ring, if my Yuchang dagger cannot defeat her in the first strike, I am afraid it will be very troublesome."
Yang Linger secretly speculated and analyzed in her heart.
In terms of power, the four great divine daggers in the world are naturally the purple sun dagger of the Cangyun Sect and the dragon tooth dagger in Baili Yuan's hand. Yang Linger's Yuchang dagger and the Zhan Xiangsi in the hands of Yu Linglong of the Hehuan Sect are slightly inferior to the other two divine daggers in terms of frontal power.
But the four great daggers each have their own strengths and weaknesses. For example, the Yuchang Dagger is an assassin's magic weapon, with the attribute of wind, and can come and go without a trace. In terms of speed, the other three daggers are far inferior to Yuchang.
Baili Yuan's high level of Taoism is indeed beyond Yang Ling'er's expectations, but if she meets Baili Yuan on the ring, she will not be afraid of her Taoism and the magic weapon in her hand.
However, I remember that 360 years ago, the previous owner of the Dragon Tooth Dagger, Fairy Liuyun, used this dagger to defeat the head of the Cangyun Sect, Yu Jizi, and won the first place in the Duantian Cliff Fight.
Yang Ling'er cannot help but guard against such a powerful divine dagger.
While Yang Ling'er was secretly thinking about how to deal with Baili Yuan's Dragon Tooth Dagger, a strange and bizarre scene appeared in the wilderness more than ten miles away from them.
This is an endless field. The green wheat is growing vigorously after a winter of heavy snow. It is about to produce wheat ears and will mature in less than two months.
Food is the most important source of livelihood for farmers, and it cannot be spoiled by wild boars now. Therefore, every village nearby will send several young and strong men to patrol around the fields with torches at night to drive away wild boars and other animals.
Chen Laoqi from Chenjia Village drank a lot of wine tonight because it was his turn to look after the wheat in the fields tonight.
There is a mass grave at the east end of Chenjia Village. It is said that a thousand years ago, the mass grave was a huge fish pond. There were two armies at that time, with a total of millions of people.
The million-strong army launched a war on this generation of wilderness plains, and almost all of them died.
At that time, the bodies were difficult to handle and there was no time to bury them, so the bodies of millions of soldiers were randomly discarded in the stagnant water, ponds, and pits around the battlefield. The ponds within a radius of dozens of miles were filled with the bodies of countless dead soldiers at that time.
The low mountain at the east end of Chenjia Village was once filled with corpses. Now it has become a small hill. For thousands of years, there have been reports of ghosts and spirits around the mass graves. Especially in the middle of the night, you can see the flickering green ghost lights flickering around. Once someone approaches, the ghost lights will chase them.
Originally, Chen Laoqi and another bold man were patrolling the wheat fields tonight. Unexpectedly, the tall and strong bold man fell down and broke his leg while helping the children in the village to reach the locust flowers during the day, so he could only walk alone at night.
It is said that alcohol makes cowards brave. Chen Qi was drunk and hummed a little song along the way. He held a stick in one hand and a torch in the other hand and walked along the path to the world outside the village.
As he walked, he suddenly felt a biting cold wind blowing in his face. He shuddered and the alcohol took full effect immediately. He looked around carefully and found that the mass graves were in front of him.
He felt a little scared for no reason.
It is said that if you don't do bad things, you don't have to be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door.
Although Chen Laoqi is an honest country man, he has done some bad things.
For example, he is an old bachelor who has not found a wife in his thirties, so he has an affair with the widow Cai in the village. Last time Chen Laosan went to Anqing City and didn't come back at night, he sneaked into Chen Laosan's yard and slept with his wife. Later, every time Chen Laosan was not at home, he would hug his wife and crawl into the grass nest.
These are the bad things of Chen Laoqi.
There were unusual sounds coming from all around the mass grave not far away. He swallowed and murmured: "Don't be afraid, there are no ghosts in the world, yes, no ghosts..."
He continued to move forward with courage. Suddenly, the gloomy wind blew again. He immediately stopped and rubbed his eyes to look ahead.
The moon was bright tonight, and he could vaguely see human figures around the mass grave.
When he looked carefully, he saw countless human figures around the hill in front of him, standing densely around the mass grave. There were tens of thousands of them, all wearing armor and holding weapons, as if countless soldiers who had been buried here had suddenly resurrected tonight.
Chen Laoqi's legs trembled with fear, and he fell to the ground with his buttocks. When he looked up, his pupils immediately contracted with fear.
Under the moonlight, at the top of the hill, stood a woman in white with long flowing hair. With the help of the moonlight, he saw that the woman in white was extremely beautiful, but she was not standing on the hill, but suspended in the air about ten feet above the hill.
"Female ghost!"
Chen Laoqi was so scared that he urinated and shit, his eyes rolled up, and he fainted.
He was not mistaken. There were indeed countless figures in armor around the mass graves. Above the mass graves, there was indeed a woman in white clothes with long hair.
But this woman was not a female ghost. She was beautiful in the moonlight, carrying a long sword, with cool eyes, but also gave people a cold feeling.
Who else could it be if not Yun Qiyou, the Lingbing Fairy of Cangyun Sect?
At this moment, Yun Qiyou's face was as cold as frost, and her pretty face was full of evil. She looked at the countless densely packed figures under her feet without any expression.
Suddenly, she raised her hand and scattered a handful of golden things. After falling to the ground, they turned out to be golden soybeans.
However, when the soybeans fell to the ground, the light flashed, and each soybean turned into a figure, a skeleton warrior wearing tattered armor and holding a weapon.
Looking around, there were at least thousands of skeleton warriors standing around the mass graves, each of them had a terrifying appearance, like the resurrection of the dead.
There were so many skeleton warriors, standing like wood without making any shadows. The scene was extremely strange.
Not far away, the old senior Wuyazi looked at everything in front of him, and there was a burning flame in his eyes.
"Three days! It's only been three days! She actually mastered the magic of turning beans into soldiers! It's only been three days!"
Yunyazi muttered to himself, seeming surprised, excited, and a little sad.
A person with talent like Yun Qiyou is the only one he has seen in hundreds of years. At the beginning, he spent a full two months to practice this magic, but Yun Qiyou only took three days. This talent is far better than his.
