Secular world: My destiny has no taboos

Chapter 279 278: Peace, arrest them
"Potential" is a special force that transcends the individual level and exists only in the collective.

The situations vary, and the most common one is in the military.

When a massive army comes like a gale and a tsunami, the minds of ordinary people simply cannot bear it and will be crushed in an instant. They will eventually stand there stupidly, caught up in the force and allowed to be slaughtered by the blade.

At this moment, the momentum of Lin Beixuan's team has taken shape. With the help of the military formation, it has faintly condensed into the shadow of a dark purple ferocious beast.

This ferocious beast looked like a tiger or wolf, with thick beard on its neck, hair like fire clouds floating between its eyebrows and the top of its head, and mist like flame clouds always swirling around its body.

"hideous!!"

In the middle of the team that was protecting them, the God of Xun stood on the head of a stone bull, looking at the scene in front of him with shock.

According to rumors, there was once a strange beast in ancient times named Zhe. It was a man-eater, had supernatural powers, and could straddle the paths of yin and yang. Wherever Zhe appeared, disaster would inevitably befall him.

Later, a human god went to subdue Zheng and worshipped him as a secular god, offering incense and offerings to him. He could protect the family's safety and ward off evil spirits.

But that was a long time ago.

In the impression of Xun Shen, Zhe had died long ago, but he did not expect to see his shadow again in the army at this moment.

"This is incredible! With this kind of ferocious creature acting as a threat, if it grows up in the future, will that guy also wake up?"

The God of Xun looked at Lin Beixuan, who was wearing a rolling black robe and had flying gray hair, in the crowd with complicated eyes. For some reason, he felt that it was not surprising that Zhe appeared next to this guy.

"I'm afraid that only those who are haunted by this kind of calamity will be able to suppress Zhe's ferocity in the future."

Sighing and shaking his head, the God of Xun sat back on the ox cart, crossing his legs.

It seems that the current situation does not require it for the time being.

……

'call--'

'suck--'

Guan Shuo felt that his breathing had never been so steady as it was now. He seemed to have endless energy all over his body, and his eyes could penetrate the darkness and take in the scene in front of him.

The big knife in his hand seemed to have the power to break evil. Before, it took a lot of effort to chop off the starving ghost's head, but now he only needed to swing it lightly, and the blade would cut off the opponent's head without any hindrance.

Unprecedented courage arose in his heart, he took a step forward, and began to move forward slowly.

The unified sound of footsteps rang out again in the night, and the starving ghost minions died one by one under the knives of the crowd. The seemingly surging black tide in front was miraculously suppressed by them.

There is no retreat, only continuous progress.

The protective circle of women and children was no longer as crowded as before, but was getting bigger and bigger. Every time there was a neat sound of footsteps, the circle would expand outward a little more.

The battle between the starving ghost and the monster was completely finalized at this moment.

The two giant wheels crushed each other.

In the end, the human side wins.

Who says that only people can return home during the day, while evil spirits reign at night?

The moment the army was formed, the rules were completely reversed.

Ajiu listened to the roars of the starving ghosts and their followers without feeling any fear. His blood seemed to be boiling hotly, just like those who were protecting him.

"I must be like Uncle Guan and the others in the future!"

His gaze shifted from following Guan Shuo's back to a figure emitting blazing flames not far away.

The figure's posture was unique. Just by standing there, he could bring endless confidence to people, as if everything could be solved as long as he was there.

For the first time, Jiu felt the urge to believe in someone.

Although the other party is not a god, he can be seen and touched, and truly puts hope before people.

Lin Beixuan watched the black tide being continuously pushed back. He was the first to notice the changes in the team.

Even he felt a little uneasy at that situation.

The reason why he stood there was because he knew that in the darkness, there must be something that emits light. Even if it was just fire, it could still dispel the fear in people's hearts.

As for those starving ghosts who faced the attack head-on, they had little rationality. Finally, as their companions kept dying around them, they began to retreat in panic and quietly disappeared into the darkness, leaving only piles of corpses on the ground.

"Hoo, hoo, hoo..."

Guan Shuo kept breathing heavily, looking at the starving ghosts and their followers who were retreating, the excitement in his heart was beyond words.

However, after his will was weakened, he suddenly felt a strong sense of fatigue sweeping over his body.

He looked around and found that everyone was in the same situation as him, without exception.

Strictly speaking, the generation of momentum consumes a person's energy and spirit.

They sat down on the ground one by one, but in order to prevent the starving ghosts from making a surprise attack, they always held the sharp knives tightly in their hands.

Guan Shuo looked at the bald man beside him and found that blood was oozing out of his chest and his face was frighteningly pale, but he was laughing wildly.

"Are you okay?" Guan Shuo asked with a frown.

Lai Tou had always been a farmer before, and he only learned some simple martial arts from him. This time he fought against the starving ghost and was seriously injured.

"Hahaha, it's okay, I'm happy!!"

The bald man stretched his neck and laughed, and tears flowed down his cheeks.

"It turns out that we don't have to be afraid of these evil spirits. They will die if their heads are chopped off..."

Looking at the bald man's appearance, Guan Shuo fell silent.

He knew something about Baldy.

Once upon a time, Lai Tou was married and had a daughter. Because his daughter had a high fever at night, he risked his life by picking up a lantern and running out to find a local doctor in the village.

In the end, the local doctor did not dare to go back with him, but just gave him some medicine. However, when he returned, he saw that his wife and daughter were all dead at home. Their chests seemed to be pierced by the sharp claws of wild beasts, and their internal organs were completely taken out. Their death was extremely miserable.

It was not until the next day that the village chief brought people into his house and confirmed that it was caused by an evil spirit.

After this incident, Lai Tou seemed like a different person. He did not marry and was no longer as honest and good-tempered as before. Instead, he would get angry at the slightest provocation and only respected the village chief and a few other people in the village.

Guan Shuo has always known that Lai Tou harbored hatred for evil spirits in his heart.

Killing so many evil spirits this time seemed to have resolved the knot in Baldy's heart.

Many ordinary people feared evil as much as a tiger, but today, they have killed the things they feared most in their hearts.

At this time, the women began their tasks under the arrangement of Shen Tingmiao.

They quickly ran to the injured person, sprinkled medicine on the wound, and picked up clean gauze to stop the bleeding.

Lin Beixuan walked to Shen Tingmiao, frowned and asked, "How many casualties did we suffer this time?"

"No one died, but more than twenty people were injured, two of whom were seriously injured..." Shen Tingmiao reported the data she had just counted to Lin Beixuan.

Hearing this number, Lin Beixuan's tense heart relaxed a little.

After killing the Taochen, he immediately rushed over to support them. However, because the hungry ghosts came suddenly, no one was prepared to face the first wave of attacks. Although they quickly adjusted, some casualties were unavoidable.

"Fortunately, no one died!"

Even though he understood the path he would take in the future, and that the number of casualties would likely be dozens or even hundreds of times higher than it is now...at this moment, he still didn't want anyone to die.

Lin Beixuan had a gloomy look on his face. He took a deep breath and looked at the exhausted people in the team.

'We must find a place where we can rest adequately.'

After a whole day's journey and encountering this unexpected situation, everyone was exhausted both physically and mentally.

Just at this time, Wu Huo and others who were responsible for investigating in Yamakou Village returned.

They looked at the corpses of starving people all over the ground, their eyes filled with confusion and shock.

In the end what happened?
They had just left for a while!
Wu Huo glanced at the team and found that except for two people who looked seriously injured, the rest were not seriously injured, they were just overworked.

Swallowing his saliva, he slowly walked to Lin Beixuan and said solemnly with a grim expression.

"General, I checked the situation in Yamaguchi Village. There is a creature that should be a starving ghost. It has a huge head and hair spread out like tree branches, with many dry and flat heads hanging on it..."

Wu Huo briefly described the scene in Shankou Village: "That thing was very strange. Unfortunately, when I tried to get closer, I accidentally startled it, so we immediately retreated with our men."

After hearing this, Lin Beixuan nodded and looked towards the direction of Shankou Village not far away without saying a word.

After a while, he uttered a cold word: "We will camp in Shankou Village tonight."

"Let everyone get up, the injured take the bullock cart, and follow me into Yamaguchi Village."

"Yes!!"

Wu Huo responded. He wanted to speak up to persuade him, but when he saw Lin Beixuan's cold eyes, he swallowed the words back.

After Lin Beixuan gave the order, everyone immediately started to act.

Although he had no strength left after a big battle, fortunately Yamaguchi Village was not far away, just ahead, so he could grit his teeth and hold on.

A group of people came outside the city, looked at the closed city gate, and then turned their eyes to Lin Beixuan who was walking towards the city gate in front.

Just when everyone thought that Lin Beixuan would have people climb over the city wall and open the city gate, a loud noise came into their ears.

Lin Beixuan took a deep breath, gathered all his strength, and kicked the city gate hard.

"boom!!!"

With the sound of wood cracking, the tall city gate could not withstand Lin Beixuan's kick, and the entire gate fell into the city.

Although everyone knew that Lin Beixuan was much stronger than them, they were still stunned at this moment.

I've only seen people kicking open a door with one foot, but I've never seen people kicking open a city gate with one foot. What a terrifying power this is.

Lin Beixuan turned around, glanced at everyone, and said in a deep voice: "Follow us, into the city."

Only then did everyone come to their senses and followed Lin Beixuan in one after another.

However, just as everyone entered the city, Lin Beixuan, who was walking in the front, suddenly stopped and looked at the houses in the city with fierce eyes.

He slightly sniffed his nose. Being extremely sensitive to the smell of ghosts, he smelled the scent of a vengeful spirit here.

"I'm in a bad mood right now, and I'm willing to give way for the benefit of everyone!"

The people behind him were puzzled by Lin Beixuan's words, wondering why the general was speaking to an empty house.

But in the next second, the night wind suddenly became stronger and the whimpering sound was sharp, as if countless ghosts were responding.

In the darkness, pairs of pale feet suddenly appeared among the thick shadows.

"It seems that you are not going to make money by being friendly."

Lin Beixuan had a blank expression on his face. He reached out and gently patted the bag on his waist.

In an instant, the infant spirit flew out through the opening of the bag, coiled and floated beside Lin Beixuan.

He followed Lin Beixuan's gaze and looked at the vengeful spirits in the black shadows.

"Ping An, arrest them!"

Lin Beixuan stopped talking nonsense and walked forward. His target was not these evil spirits, so he didn't intend to waste time on them.

"Dangdangdang..."

As if sensing that Lin Beixuan was in a bad mood, the infant spirit raised a sinister smile at the corner of its mouth, and the soul-catching chain around its waist clanged.

In an instant, his figure disappeared from the spot.

Lin Beixuan spread out his right hand, a formation pattern lit up, and dozens of ghost soldiers appeared beside him.

There was no need for Lin Beixuan to remind them. The ghost soldiers, who had already known the target, were divided into two teams. One team was responsible for protecting the tired people, and the other team followed the infant spirit into the pile of resentful spirits.

"I don't know how you died before, but since you are dead, you should not get close to the living."

With tapping footsteps, Lin Beixuan walked alone into the darkness ahead. The light from the array pattern on his palm became brighter and brighter, turning into a door that temporarily stayed where he passed.

Li Pingan kept tying up vengeful spirits with chains and throwing them into the forbidden area, where more evil soldiers were waiting for them.

As for those wicked spirits that resisted madly, Li Ping'an would not tolerate them. He would pull out the scissors of sadness and joy from behind and cut them into pieces with a few strokes.

These soul fragments were not wasted and were sucked into the red bead in the center of the Scissors of Joy and Sorrow, which looked like an eye.

No matter whether it is the Soul-Hooking Chains or the Scissors of Joy and Sorrow, they are both magical instruments that are extremely suitable for the fate of the infant spirit Changshi Yinchai. After he refined them in his own palace, their power when used was taken to a higher level.

In addition, due to the path enjoyed by the infant spirits due to their fate, those vengeful spirits lasted less than a quarter of an hour before they were sent into the forbidden area by the infant spirits.

When the people standing at the city gate saw this scene, they couldn't help but stare with their eyes wide open, looking at the little ghost who sneaked into the ghost group as if he was in an empty space.

Guan Shuo had witnessed the power of infant spirits before, and at this moment he couldn't help but be amazed.

"He is indeed a ghost who is qualified to follow the general around!"

Wu Huo wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. As those unwilling resentful spirits were cleared away, he immediately asked everyone to choose a house to live in.

On the other side, Lin Beixuan had already arrived alone in front of the huge brain tree that Wu Huo had mentioned.

He looked at the hard hair on the huge head in front of him. It was indeed as Wu Huo said. There were many dried heads hanging on it, shaking in the night wind, making a "clacking" sound.

"Buzz..."

A flash of scarlet light shook the air, and a crescent-shaped sickle appeared in Lin Beixuan's hand. He walked briskly, leaving a long afterimage behind him.

The panel sounded in my mind like a system prompt.

[You encounter a special target: the starving ghost - the lice Buddha brain tree. ]

[The Ghost Picture Book is open...]
