e shipped over. Yu and Younan, the two little dumplings, had gotten plumper in just a few days. I held them and showered them with kisses.Grandma said with a sneer, "These two kids are so easy to take...Since I learned the "Lì Shén Hǔ Táng" method to capture evil spirits and demonic creatures, I've found this incantation to be very effective.

It's because my cultivation level is not high enough, and I find it difficult to control the size of the divine tiger.

The best divine tiger is not overwhelmingly large, for that would make it difficult to chase prey and hard to step on or bite.

Summoning a normal-sized Divine Tiger for me is like winning the lottery.

Luckily, I won this time.

The divine tiger descended out of thin air, pouncing on the black shadow and dragging it down from the rock face.

I strained to climb over and asked my brother, "Brother, what's wrong with you"

"It was like getting hit with a piece of iron, the whip made my hand ache." My brother moved his palm around.

"Are you human" I asked.

"I don't know... the body feels hard. Let me take a look." He grabbed his stun gun and walked toward the tiger, pressing it against the stone.

Here, a landslide caused the loss of soil and sand. The entire mountain seemed like an open wound, its flesh and skin gone, leaving only the jagged skeleton of rock.

The Divine Tiger can track down and subdue monstrous and wicked creatures, but it cannot harm living humans.

And my brother's little electric baton was made for humans. That shadow rolled down the hillside, bumping against rocks, and it could still get up immediately.

Really an ironclad body

"Roar…" The divine tiger roared, pouncing on the shadowy figure and pinning it beneath its paws. Its jaws clamped down on the creature's neck.

I hurried forward and discovered that it was an old man.

He couldn't be sure of his age, but his hair and teeth were nearly gone. Black wisps emanated from his mouth, his eyes rolled back in their sockets, and he resembled a corpse.

"Bro, did you just charm him" I asked curiously, how is this person in this state

"I haven't powered up the electric pole yet…" My brother didn't dare to get close either: "I see black qi now and I have psychological shadows. Wouldn't it be those monsters that were under the control of that something again"

Just as he was speaking, the old man's shriveled mouth moved, his voice like sandpaper rasping: "... Which fellow traveler, do you intend to kill for treasure..."

We were surprised, it was still a person!

"You, old monster, don't look like an upright person at all. Your body is as stiff as a corpse! Who would be your kind!" My brother took out a climbing rope and bound him.

The old man's eyes moved, but there were no pupils.

His eyes looked like dull, gray rocks. I thought he'd rolled his eyes just now, but looking closer, they seem to always be like that.

The old man's shriveled lips trembled as he continued, "Since we aren't from the same path, let's just keep to our own affairs..."

"Sounds good." My brother prodded the old man's cheek with his stun gun, whispering, "We don't care what kind of crooked stuff you're up to. We're here to find someone..."

"I heard three female students around twenty years old came here. This is clearly a remote village, yet you, an old monster, are hiding here. Did those female students fall into your hands"

The old man's eyes twitched, and he croaked, "Those creatures were a chance find. Daoist friend, if you need them, take them. Just don't hinder my cultivation..."

Born, born livestock!

My brother and I gaped at him. This old man treated living people like livestock!

"You plotted to murder for wealth and practiced evil sorcery, and you still want to bargain with us Tell me, what did you do in this deserted village! These paper figures and spirits, were they made by you!" My brother threatened him with the electric baton.

The old man twitched his mouth, and another wisp of black air came out. We quickly dodged it.

He was pinned beneath the tiger, his back crushed, its jaws clamped around his neck, his face buried in the dirt and gravel. He raised his hands in surrender.

“I… only recently found this place… There are many restless souls here, with lingering anger. It’s a good place…”

"I have been practicing for a hundred years, please two of you show mercy and don't kill or steal treasures..."

Murder and theft have always been despised by those in the industry.

Although times of chaos may occur frequently, the current era is one of peace and prosperity. Even those who operate within the realm of yin and yang must strive to live harmoniously in society. While treasures may be sought after, killings are extremely rare.

This guy actually has the idea of "killing for treasure" How many years has he been hiding in the deep mountains and old forests

"First, take us to those girls. As long as they're unharmed, we don't care what kind of dark arts you practice. But if anything happens to them, you old monster will be spending the rest of your days in jail." My brother bound his hands and tightened his grip on his neck, pulling him to his feet.

The old man kept babbling apologies.

He said he had been practicing in the mountains for many years and discovered this place recently, finding it to be a treasure.

People who like dark and sinister vibes usually dabble in the occult. This old man claimed to have practiced cultivation for sixty years, which means he started practicing since the turbulent times before the founding of the nation.

He entered the village and quickly discovered that there were earthbound spirits here, and some houses had household utensils. Moreover, not a single living creature could be found in the entire village.

So he cut some bamboo strips on the mountain, found paper and other supplies from abandoned houses, made many paper figures, and dressed them up with discarded old clothes.

"Here, as soon as a car comes in, the souls of the unjustly dead will climb onto it, hoping that living people will take them out... hiss..."

Oh, I see. So the black indicator light was because the ghost had its eyes covered.

These earthbound spirits are not very old, and when they see cars, they think they are relatives coming to take them away, which is why there are rumors that accidents happen to those who drive in.

“I saw some vengeful spirits climbing onto these women's cars. The cars flipped over to the side of the road, and the women were so scared that their souls flew away. This was a perfect opportunity for evil spirits to possess them. To prevent the living from being possessed, I performed rituals to dispel several evil spirits… Aww…”

"After forty-nine days, I will be giving eyes to these paper figures and summoning their souls to inhabit them. They will then wander around, attracting lonely individuals... Pain! Young Master, please spare my life..."

My brother, a stick in his hand, says one word.

"Why do you want to live Are you going to eat people" My brother asked.

The old man's white eyeballs twitched, and he grinned, "Then let's take a lower class... I just need to get angry... These livestock can still be offered as sacrifices to the King..."

My scalp went numb.

Your Majesty, Your Highness, these two words, I've heard them too much lately!

I seized the old man's rope by the neck and pulled him forward, demanding fiercely, "What kind of demon or monster is this so-called king you speak of!"

The old man's shriveled lips emitted a faint black mist, and his dull eyes glared as he painfully said: “Your Majesty... is our faith... there are eighteen of them in total, they were our gods a thousand years ago!”

My brother pinched my wrist and made me let go, then whispered, "Little Qiao, don't get excited... This old man doesn't know about us. Let me try to get some information out of him."

He patted my shoulder, signaling me to calm down.

Your Majesty, I heard this word from Zhou Lao Ya's mouth; and Your Excellency, I heard it from Chong Mo's mouth.

What kind of system is this If they are demons, there is obviously a strict hierarchy.

Including being silent, he also said: I am stronger than you, if you listen to me obediently, you can survive.

"You, you seem to be studying the art of demonic cultivation... Let me tell you, old man, a few days ago we crossed paths with your so-called master." My brother scoffed, putting on an air of arrogance.

We have the Divine Tiger, and it appears in such a place. This old man is somewhat afraid of us.

"...How, how is this possible I have been practicing for a lifetime, my body becoming stronger and harder every day, but I have never seen Your Majesty descend!"

"Quickly take us to those female students, and I will tell you what your king said. It's a fair trade. Although we may be from different paths, we all have faith and would never lie."

The old man's cloudy eyeballs rolled a few times before he nodded. "Good…"fearing that some demons or monsters might suddenly emerge.I wanted to uncover the talismans in the four corners of the ceiling, but there's nothing here. There are no stools, no clotheslines, and I c...
