Chapter 427 The Ancient Gods' Giving
Wu Sansheng tightened his grip on Wu Xie's hand and immediately said:
"I agree! It's just thirty dogs, the Wu family agrees!"
At this point, he couldn't care less about anything else; survival was his top priority. As for the debt, he could pay it back slowly.
"Help me! I'll give you ten antiques if you get out!"
Ah Ning didn't hesitate; she knew what was more important.
Moreover, she felt that even without the premise of saving her, as long as Cheng Feng said he wanted Jude Kao's treasures, Jude Kao would probably hand them over without hesitation, given his personality.
So it would be crazy to refuse now.
"I'm glad there aren't any idiots here. Congratulations on surviving."
Cheng Feng nodded in satisfaction, and then a muffled rumble of thunder echoed through the space.
Rumble,
The rolling thunder caused rocks to fall from above, and the evil creatures that had been parasitizing the four people burst out of their bodies like a swarm of bees with their fur standing on end.
They are invisible and intangible, yet they cannot escape the discerning eye of the wind.
Large swaths of lightning struck the fleeing evil creatures with pinpoint accuracy, instantly obliterating them one by one in the lightning.
After dealing with the evil spirits on A Ning and Wu Sansheng, Cheng Feng began to manipulate the scarecrow.
First, he wiped away the blood that Hei Xiazi had dripped onto the scarecrow's head. Then, Cheng Feng whispered some words, his pronunciation so strange that it would be difficult for ordinary people to imitate.
Soon, Hei Xiazi realized that the connection between himself and the scarecrow had been severed.
This relieved him, as the scarecrow carried dozens of evil creatures, more than the four people combined.
Strangely enough, blind people are particularly attractive to evil spirits. If it weren't for the fact that there were too many evil spirits parasitizing the scarecrow, Wu Sansheng and his group probably wouldn't have been able to get any.
"Still want to run?"
Cheng Feng let out a low shout, and as lightning flashed, the scarecrow and the evil creature on it turned into ashes.
After resolving these minor troubles, Cheng Feng lightly jumped and sat down on the large dining table.
There were still quite a few strange, dark things left on it.
"It's all settled. Your vision will return to normal in a bit. Once you're out, be good and don't make me come knocking on your door to collect the debt!"
After Cheng Feng spoke, the four of them visibly breathed a sigh of relief.
They were already overwhelmed by the feeling of losing their eyesight after only experiencing it for a short while.
Hearing that I'll recover soon has put my mind at ease.
"Who would dare owe you, Chief Cheng, a debt!"
Wu Sansheng sighed. The Wu family had suffered a huge loss this time. He hoped that once his eyesight recovered, he could find something valuable here.
No matter how much, as long as it's enough to recover some losses.
With Hei Xiazi's help, the four of them sat down in chairs. After settling the four blind men, he returned to Cheng Feng's side and sat down at the table with him.
The blind man casually picked up a piece of 'food' that looked like a piece of withered wood from beside him, examined it for a moment, and then said:
"Whether eating this thing is a blessing or a curse is unknown!"
"They're not that old, and it's still a long way from when the symptoms will kick in, so for now it should be considered a good thing?"
Cheng Feng's tone was also somewhat uncertain.
Hearing their conversation, Wu Sansheng's expression also turned ugly.
He hadn't thought much about it in the heat of the moment, but now that he'd calmed down, he quickly figured out what it was.
"Before he passed away, the old man repeatedly warned the Wu family not to touch this thing again. I never expected that not only me, but even Wuxie couldn't escape it."
Wu Sansheng deeply felt that fate is unpredictable, and sometimes man proposes, God disposes.
Wu Xie and Xie Yuchen closed their eyes and frowned.
"Third Uncle, do you know what this is?"
Wu Xie asked.
But Wu Sansheng just sighed and didn't seem inclined to explain it to his nephew.
Xie Yuchen, who was standing next to him, seemed to realize something. After his brows smoothed out, he spoke with unusual calmness:
"It's Corpse Dog Carrying; what we've eaten is the flesh of an ancient god."
"Corpse Dog?"
Wu Xie is still a naive child, completely ignorant of the affairs of the martial arts world. However, he is naturally curious and has a strong desire to learn about the unknown.
Unlike Wu Sansheng, who had the bad habit of only giving clues, Xie Yuchen immediately told him what he knew.
Buddhist scriptures record that Shakyamuni once cut off his own flesh to feed an eagle, which was actually a form of almsgiving.
For higher beings, feeding lower beings with their own flesh and blood is a form of cultivation.
This feast of corpses was an unusual kind of unease.
A high-level being known as the Ancient God gathered a large number of humans with its own flesh. After eating the Ancient God's flesh, they became one of the thirty-three non-human beings.
Because the races of those who consume the flesh of the ancient gods are different, the non-human beings they transform into after eating the flesh of the ancient gods are also different.
The so-called "corpse dog" is actually an intermediate state; it has become alienated, but not completely alienated.
Once the alienation is complete, that is, when all the organs in the body have 'come alive,' they will become truly non-human depending on individual differences.
Among the previous generation of the Nine Gates, only Wu Laogou truly reached this level.
This is why Wu Laogou instructed Wu Sansheng and the others before his death to cremate him.
Huo Xiangu and Chen Pi Asi were lucky enough to meet Cheng Feng, a good son-in-law, which helped them resolve their problems behind the bronze gate of Changbai Mountain.
"Does this mean that one day we'll all turn into the same kind of rice dumplings as these?"
Wu Xie spoke with a complex mix of emotions.
Neither Xie Yuchen nor Wu Sansheng spoke, but Wu Xie knew that this matter was probably settled.
"You are young and have plenty of time to solve this problem, so don't be discouraged."
Cheng Feng offered heartfelt words of comfort.
The four of them felt a tightness in their chests after hearing this, and did not feel comforted at all.
"Boss, what are your plans for the future?"
Black Bear casually tossed the ancient god's flesh aside, then lazily asked, supporting himself with his hands behind his back.
Cheng Feng: "Let's talk about it after we've dealt with this."
Hei Xiazi turned to face Cheng Feng, his head full of question marks.
Cheng Feng pointed to the spot where the jade burial suit had been scattered and said, "That thing hasn't been dealt with yet. The important thing right now is to wait for it to return."
The non-human being named "Demon" within the jade burial suit only initially colluded with the Obstruction Ghost and the Barrier Ghost to interfere with Cheng Feng.
Then I played with the yo-yo.
Cheng Feng was too busy to deal with it at the time, so the thing slipped out of the exit.
"I thought you'd just casually killed it back then, but it's already run away, why would it come back?"
"Hei Xiazi asked curiously."
"This is a cage built by the Queen Mother of the West for them. How could they escape so easily? Just wait, it will be back soon."
At this point, Cheng Feng couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration for the Queen Mother of the West.
While dealing with these thirty-three non-human beings wasn't difficult for him, each of them was a formidable opponent for the others.
But this terrifying thing was imprisoned here by the Queen Mother of the West thousands of years ago, with only one lucky one escaping.
After chatting with Hei Xiazi for a bit, Cheng Feng figured since he was already there, he might as well grab a bite at the Corpse Kingdom Banquet.
He then took out many good things from the imaginary space and invited everyone to have a feast.
