Mortal Bones

"So sister Qingmei is the same as me, a person with a miserable life. Since you don't mind, you can stay in my yard tonight."

Xu Taiping pretended to be very sympathetic and nodded.

When Liu Qingmei heard this, her face immediately showed joy, and there was a flash of excitement in her eyes.

"Thank you, young Taiping. When Qingmei's injury is healed, Qingmei will definitely bring a generous gift to thank you for saving her life."

Liu Qingmei said with tears in her eyes and a grateful face.

"Sister Qingmei, the demon wolf may still be ambushing nearby. If I open the gate rashly, it may let it in. Why don't you turn around and help me keep an eye on the surroundings, and then rush in quickly after I open the door. This is safer."

Xu Taiping said to Liu Qingmei with a vigilant face.

Liu Qingmei was slightly stunned when she heard this, and then nodded repeatedly:

"Taiping, you are absolutely right, I will come to help you keep an eye on it, and let me know when you open the door."

After saying this, Liu Qingmei turned around quickly.

And at the moment when she turned her head, the gentle expression on Liu Qingmei's face disappeared as if she had changed her face, and she showed a cruel expression instead, and then raised the corners of her mouth, and whispered in an inaudible voice:

"Looks cautious, but in fact stupid, it's ridiculous that you didn't realize that you were about to die."

But as soon as she said this, her ears trembled, and a crisp sound of a bowstring being tightened came into her ears.

"You!..."

"Swoosh!"

Liu Qingmei was about to escape, but the sound of an arrow breaking through the air had already exploded behind her, and an arrow covered with frost pierced straight through her chest.

"You're looking for death..."

"Swoosh!"

Looking at the arrow in her chest, Liu Qingmei roared with a livid face, but just as she said this roar, another sharp arrow broke through the air and pierced her throat.

At this time, Liu Qingmei had turned her head and her eyes happened to meet the young man standing on the gate behind her. Then she asked in disbelief:

"How did you... notice it?"

"Swoosh!"

Xu Taiping raised his hand and shot another arrow. The arrow went straight through Liu Qingmei's eyebrows, leaving a fist-sized hole.

"Sister, next time you go out to collect herbs, remember to change into a pair of suitable shoes."

In Liu Qingmei's angry eyes, Xu Taiping continued to draw the bow and arrow, while speaking calmly.

As if she had been greatly humiliated, Liu Qingmei suddenly became angry and jumped up regardless of her injuries, and then used her suddenly swollen claws to grab Xu Taiping who was standing on the top of the gate.

"Bang!"

Before Xu Taiping could make a move, a green light shot out from the courtyard barrier, like a heavy slap in the face, whipping Liu Qingmei, who had not died even after being hit by three arrows, and sent her flying backwards.

"Ah!..."

Liu Qingmei, who fell to the ground, suddenly let out a shrill scream.

Then, a stream of black smoke came out of her mouth, and then the black smoke turned into a black whirlwind, rolling up a pile of dust in front of the courtyard.

"Boy, unless you never come out of this courtyard again, you will fall into my hands sooner or later, and then I will make you wish you were dead!"

In the black whirlwind, a sharp and cruel roar of a man sounded.

"I don't seem to have offended you, why do you want to hurt me?"

Xu Taiping, who encountered such a monster for the first time, was trying to calm himself down. While questioning the monster, he pulled the bowstring in his hand again.

"You'll know soon!"

Accompanied by a burst of wild laughter, the black whirlwind whistled out and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"Could this be the spirit ghost mentioned in the jade slip?"

Xu Taiping muttered to himself as he looked at the direction where the black whirlwind dissipated.

According to the jade slip, in the forest where the outer disciples are located, in addition to the monsters in the deep mountains, there are also spirits and ghosts.

And these spirits and ghosts often like to possess some wild animals or dead bodies, and then lure other living people to suck their flesh and blood and vitality for cultivation.

Because they are all spirits and have no body, if you want to completely kill them, only some magic can do it.

"With such a monster hiding in the dark and attacking, it will be a bit troublesome to hunt around in the future. The most important thing is that I know nothing about him."

Xu Taiping glanced at the corpse on the ground, and then frowned slightly.

In theory, this situation should be reported to the sect, but after understanding it for a period of time, he knew very well that even if he reported it to the sect, no one would come to check it out.

In his eyes, these outer disciples were dispensable and he would not spend too much energy on them.

"Huh..."

Just as Xu Taiping was having a headache about how to prevent the ghost, a gust of cold wind suddenly blew again at the gate of the courtyard.

The sky was completely dark at this time, so when the cold wind blew, it gave people a particularly creepy feeling.

"Could it be that the ghost came so soon?"

Xu Taiping immediately drew his bow with an alert look and looked around.

"Young man, I'm here."

Just when Xu Taiping found nothing, a little green firefly suddenly flew out from the female corpse in front of the door, and finally turned into a nearly transparent female figure.

This phantom looked exactly the same as the corpse on the ground.

"You dare to show up?"

Xu Taiping immediately aimed the arrow in his hand at the female phantom.

Before the freezing period, although the bow and arrow in his hand could not kill the ghost soul, the arrow wrapped in the remnant cloud true energy could still cause some damage to them. This was also mentioned by Zi Yang Zhenjun when he was preaching.

"Young man, spare my life, young man, spare my life, I was just coerced by the ghost, and had no choice but to come here to lure you out."

The female soul begged for mercy again and again.

"Ghost?"

Xu Taiping saw that her tone did not seem to be false, and heard her reveal the identity of the ghost before, so he immediately moved the bow and arrow in his hand to the side.

"Yes, it was a ghost, and I was harmed by it at that time, becoming its ghost servant, and being humiliated by it every day."

The female ghost gnashed her teeth when she spoke, her eyes full of regret and resentment, and it seemed that she really hated the ghost.

However, with the lesson just now, Xu Taiping would not easily believe her one-sided words, let alone go out of the hospital to see her.

"Young man, don't worry that I will hurt you. My soul is already incomplete, and I was just hit by three arrows driven by your true energy. At most, in a cup of tea, my soul will be scattered."

The soul of the woman seemed to see Xu Taiping's thoughts and hurriedly explained to him, but at the end of the words, her tone was full of sadness.
