Chapter 68 I’m going to move reinforcements

In the lobby, Liang Qu is located on the upper right, with his upper body exposed and his flesh and blood wounds shocking.

Behind him, the doctor held a medicine mortar, took out the grass stems and crushed them to extract the juice, which could be used to prevent the wound from suppurating.

Chen Zhaoan is sitting on his upper left hand, with his hands crossed and supported on the crutches.

All the village elders were sitting or standing, all uneasy. Occasionally, they felt pain when they looked at the hideous wound.

Except for the groans of pain from the injured villagers in the hall, the entire hall was filled with oppressive silence.

Chen Zhaoan glanced around and stared at the villager on his lower left. The villager understood the idea, stood up, looked at Liang Qu, and asked the previous question again.

"This mountain ghost is not the big mountain ghost in Pingyang Town, nor is it the little mountain ghost that was conceived."

Liang Qu’s coffin is sealed.

The doctor who was grinding the herbs shook his hands.

The calm conversation was quite healing.

"Doesn't it mean there are other mountain ghosts?"

"One of them is so scary, and there are two more. Fortunately, Ah Shui is here today. If not, wouldn't it be a disaster?"

"How could they come to Yixing City? We are 16 miles away from Pingyang Town, and it would take an hour to walk manually."

The village elders looked at each other with fear in their hearts.

They had actually come face-to-face with mountain ghosts, and their pus-like yellow vertical pupils were more terrifying than tigers. Many village elders were so frightened that they dropped their crutches and cured their legs that had been cold for many years on the spot.

I thought that the disaster happened in Binh Duong Town and that there was nothing to worry about in Yixing City. I never thought that it would be unsafe to be so far away.

But the fact is that Liang Qu believes in his own judgment.

The little mountain ghost is only about the same size as a human baby when it is born. It will take at least three months for it to grow to nearly human height.

Lu Shaohui died less than half a month ago, so he couldn't be a newly hatched mountain ghost from Pingyang Town.

It's even less likely that he was the mountain ghost who killed Lu Shaohui.

The strength of Dashangui is obviously higher than that of Lu Shaohui, and there are not many signs of fighting at the scene, so he can crush the warriors of the second level.

With such strength, Liang Qu could not kill it even if it was tied up into a dozen, let alone smashing it away with the stone ball from the stone lion's mouth.

Everyone looked at Chen Zhaoan, who had the highest status. Chen Zhaoan naturally understood what the other people meant. He said: "Ah Shui, the other two mountain ghosts are not also in Yixing City. What's more, they won't come out early and they won't come out late."

, why did it come out just today during the sacrifice? Could it be the river god?"

The doctor applied the herbal medicine on Liang Qu's shoulders and quietly pricked up his ears, not noticing that his hands were shaking.

"Impossible!" Liang Qu flatly denied, "Mountain ghosts are land spirits, and if they are to be controlled, they must be controlled by the mountain gods. If they are river gods, then the ones sent should be water monsters. If there is no flood, there will be heavy rain, and we will be flooded in Yixing.

How could a mountain spirit be sent to the city?

Furthermore, didn’t we sacrifice the mountain ghost’s head? If it was really the river god’s will, how could there be no movement at all?”

The other village elders felt that Liang Qu's words were reasonable and nodded.

It doesn’t mean that the river god is angry.

If the river god gets angry, it will be more terrifying than the mountain ghost. Thousands of people will have to leave their homes.

Liang Qu raised his shoulders slightly, and the herbal juice stimulated his wound. He took a breath and said, "As for how the mountain ghost came, I guess it was because of the killing of animals today, and people gathered together. The smell of blood and people is too strong."

, to attract the spirits."

The young mountain ghosts eat livestock and like to eat human viscera.

The strength of the mountain ghosts he killed was between small mountain ghosts and large mountain ghosts. They were neither newborns nor adults.

Animal blood and popularity are naturally the best bait.

"I can't guarantee whether there are other mountain ghosts in Yixing City. Maybe there are, maybe not. But I have grown up so old that I don't have many records of ghosts killing people in my memory. Now that three of them have appeared at once, I doubt it.

There might be a ghost."

The rolled-up cloth fell on the ground. The doctor hurriedly picked it up, without even bothering to continue bandaging it, and asked: "Is there a ghost?"

A village elder was anxious and said: "Yes, if there are ghosts, there must be ghosts. If there are no ghosts, how can there be so many ghosts for no reason? In the past, I only heard that a certain household entered the mountains and disappeared across the river.

, How could you be so unscrupulous today?"

After turning around, he stretched out his hand to hold Liang Qu's forearm: "Ah Shui, you grew up in Yixing City. You can't be like those white-eyed wolves who just leave your hometown and forget about the villagers when you have the ability."

"cough!"

Chen Zhaoan coughed and stared at the village elder who was speaking.

The village elder felt that he had said something wrong and didn't realize what the mistake was, so he could only remain silent and shrink back.

They are all village elders, but they are also divided into three, six or nine grades.

The other village elders quickly got up to make amends.

"Yeah, if you weren't here today, I don't know how many people would have died."

"Ah Shui is already a true warrior who has passed the test, right?"

"Well, just the day before yesterday."

"It's really amazing. Unlike the incompetent and unfilial son in my family, he is an outstanding person in Yixing."

No wonder.

Li Libo and Chen Jiechang at the edge of the hall were amazed, and they increasingly felt that Liang Qu's talent was astonishing.

I can still help today, but what about the future?

Afraid of drifting apart, the two of them felt confused.

Chen Zhaoan raised his hand to ask everyone to calm down and said solemnly: "We will not let your efforts go in vain. You saved our lives today. All the village elders here will collect ten taels of silver each for you.

Although it’s not much, it represents our thoughts.”

"Yes, yes, I will definitely pay for it."

"Okay, I'll be the first to go!"

The battle between the mountain ghost was witnessed by everyone. The mountain ghost's claws were sharper than steel knives. He could break stone slabs with just a swing. His thick skin was so tough that even a knife couldn't cut through it. He was definitely a match for ordinary people.

, I’m afraid many people will die no matter how many times they go up.

It's even more amazing that Liang Qu can fight with such a monster.

Although Li Libo and Chen Jiechang helped during the process, everyone was not a fool and could see who was the key.

Liang Qu is not the only martial artist in Yixing City. However, as one goes to higher places, all those who are really promising will move away. Only those who have not become famous and are reluctant to leave the middle-class industry in Yixing City will stay here.

Just like the village elder who owns this house, several of his descendants are proficient in studying and practicing martial arts, but they are proficient in eating, drinking and playing.

The only one I can rely on now is Liang Qu.

Liang Qu felt quite embarrassed when everyone looked at him expectantly.

There were seven or eight villagers present, each with ten taels each, which was nearly a hundred taels of silver. He was naturally moved, but now it was not a matter of money, but whether it would work.

Today was very thrilling. Without the help of Awei's Venom and Achang Apo, no one can predict the next time.

But if he can't do it, it doesn't mean that others can't do it either.

"Wise old men, I really had a lot of luck this time, and this mountain ghost is of average strength. If it were the one in Pingyang Town, I would have no chance of winning."

The mood of the village elders hit rock bottom, but Liang Qu changed his tone.

"But my senior brothers are real martial arts masters with great strength. They can definitely do it. Furthermore, this matter is strange. I need to go to Pingyang Town to find the master first. He is very knowledgeable and may know what is going on.

.”

There are twists and turns, and the village elders praise it again and again.

"Then when do you plan to leave?"

"Without any further delay, we'll leave immediately."

After wrapping his body in a towel, Liang Qu stood up and dressed.

"That's how it should be. Get your horses ready quickly."

"There is no need for horses. The land route is not safe. I will take the water route. Just let Chen Jiechang go with me. The clothes I changed are still there."

Chen Zhaoan sent someone to hand over the washed cloak and robe: "All the clothes I washed are here, but they haven't dried yet. Your clothes are really extraordinary. There are so many blood stains, and they are clean after being soaked in water."

"Thank you, Mr. Chen Li."

Liang Qu took the clothes, no longer hesitated, went out and jumped off the dock. Chen Jiechang followed closely behind, came to the boat, picked up the long paddle, and took on the important task of rocking the oar.

The awning boat headed towards Pingyang Town along Zeye.
