Chapter 346 Red Paper Umbrella
Chapter 346 Red Paper Umbrella (★★)
In the following days, with the Yan Chixia version of the accelerator, Tan Wenjie began to frantically gain experience.
I don’t know when Cui Hongjian stopped writing articles and started grinding soy milk to make money.
He likes painting but when he went out to set up a stall he found that everyone was poor. They didn't have spare money to paint, and they couldn't sell their articles. The exam was still a long way off, and filling their stomachs was the most important thing. He could shamelessly get free food and drinks, but he was too embarrassed to even use his brushes, ink, paper, and inkstone.
That’s why I thought of the soy milk business.
Unexpectedly, the soy milk business was quite good. Young girls and wives all loved to drink it, and Cui Hongjian really made a lot of money. However, every time he came back from buying soy milk, he would smell like rouge.
Finally the day came when Shier got married.
Wumenju was decorated and red lanterns were hung.
Shi'er put on new clothes and tied a big red flower on his chest. He was about to set out to pick up the bride's sedan chair.
Even though the two of them were in love, for him marrying a wife was still almost like buying a house, the one with the highest bidder got it. If Tan Wenjie hadn't raised the price, the girl would have definitely married the man who was older than Yan Chixia.
Tan Wenjie feels that the money is well spent as it helps lovers get married. He also believes that if those evil thieves, bandits and black-hearted officials knew about this, they would also feel that their money is well spent.
Yan Chixia put away his arrogant look today, but he couldn't say anything cheesy when looking at Shi'er. He was destined to be an awkward person.
"Let me tell you," Tan Wenjie urged. "Bring your wife back before dark. The nine-tailed fox might be watching from the dark. We have a grudge against her, and she likes to snatch other people's brides. She will definitely target you."
"Uncle Master, I understand!" Shi'er nodded, then looked at Yan Chixia.
"Brother Shi, Brother Shi! I can't hold on anymore." Cui Hongjian shouted at the door, trembling as he pulled the reins.
Yan Chixia also said: "Let's go quickly. Don't be impetuous after getting married. Be steady."
"I understand, Master!"
Shier trotted towards the door.
The sound of suona started, Shi'er rode on a tall horse and set off with the wedding procession.
"Shall we go too?"
The nine-tailed fox was severely injured by the two men and was definitely unable to cause any trouble.
They were afraid that the nine-tailed fox would attack them, so the most correct way to deal with it was to take direct action and kill it before it could act at night. If they couldn't kill it, they would beat it up and delay it until dark.
This is the safest way to handle it.
What Tan Wenjie and Shi'er said was not groundless. In addition to the Nine-tailed Fox Ghost King, there are also Eight-tailed Fox, Seven-tailed Fox, etc. There are countless monsters that harm people, so it's better to be careful.
Fortunately, the demons are very well behaved during the day, but become very rampant at night.
"How do I get to the Yin and Yang world?" Tan Wenjie checked his equipment and found that there was nothing to prepare. The best thing he could use was his fists.
He can put on the skin of a ghost and go into the underworld. He has been there once and remembers the way.
But he has never been to the Yin and Yang world.
"Follow me."
Yan Chixia returned to the room and took out a cloth package. After opening it, he took out a red robe.
"Oh, you know today is a good day, so you wear nice clothes?" Tan Wenjie looked at Yan Chixia who was wearing a red robe, "Hiss, you are wearing redder than my nephew, isn't that too sexy?"
"This is a robe, do you understand? It has magical power to protect the body. It will not be hurt when entering the Yin and Yang worlds. A living person cannot stand entering a place with heavy Yin energy."
"What! Make me one too!"
Tan Wenjie doesn't care whether he is showing off or not. Why doesn't he share one of these good things with himself?
Everything can be done late, but taking advantage of others cannot be done late.
"You are stronger than a tiger, and your yang energy is like a wolf smoke. You don't need this thing at all. Don't you still have the art of transformation? I am different. I have old arms and legs. If I don't pay attention, I will die in there."
"Really? But I feel like you're just a stuffy person, wearing a red robe and pretending to be Zhong Kui."
Yan Chixia: "Zhong Kui? Humph, where else can there be gods in this world?"
Watching Yan Chixia sitting in the red sedan that had been prepared nearby, Tan Wenjie felt that he was still too conservative. Yan Chixia was not pretending to be Zhong Kui, but a bride.
The sedan chair vibrated.
"gone!"
"coming!"
Tan Wenjie grabbed the red umbrella in his hand, turned his body around, wrapped himself in rags and transformed himself into a ghost messenger.
He walked to the sedan chair and put his hand on it.
"go!"
The sedan rushed forward quickly, passing through the wall, and when they were out of sight, they had arrived at an open area.
There is no difference except that the light is brighter than in the underworld.
There are no buildings anywhere and few people. It is like a desert Gobi, but it is much more real than the underworld. You can feel the solid touch of the earth under your feet.
This place is the boundary between yin and yang.
The sedan chair carried Tan Wenjie and rushed through the vast Yin and Yang world at a very fast speed.
In a blink of an eye, it flew very far away. There were no buildings on both sides to compare with, and Tan Wenjie couldn't tell how fast it was flying.
"Wait, I think I saw a familiar ghost."
"Do not have time!"
Tan Wenjie reluctantly withdrew his gaze. He really saw a few familiar faces just now. They were the ghost soldiers who followed the ghost general on horseback.
It seems that a lot of things have happened since the Black Mountain Old Demon was injured and his forces were reduced. There are still some Yin soldiers who are unemployed on the spot. He actually provides job opportunities here. It seems that he should come to the Yin and Yang world more often if he has the chance.
Whatever advantage the Ghost King can take, he can also take.
The sedan suddenly drifted, and the centrifugal force almost threw Tan Wenjie away.
Suddenly, there were more than a dozen sedan chairs in front of me. They were wrapped with big red flowers. They looked very festive, but they came with a menacing force.
The Ghost King Nine-tailed Fox also noticed that they had invaded her territory and took the initiative to fight back!
Hearing the "chuckling" ghostly laughter coming from the sedan chairs, Tan Wenjie immediately let go of his hands.
But he didn't expect that the sedan would continue to move forward after he let go of his hand.
"The man who wants to marry his daughter-in-law is different. The bearded man is really powerful." Tan Wenjie raised his hand to make a awning and watched Yan Chixia rush over, "I'm not as good as you."
If it was when they were fighting the thousand-year-old tree demon, the bearded man would definitely hide behind him and slack off. Today he suddenly worked hard, definitely in order to go back early to attend Shier's wedding.
"Go on!"
The sedan chair was split by the sword, and the explosion and shattered pieces rushed in all directions, and the sedan chair revolved around Yan Chixia like an Ouroboros.
"Huh?" Yan Chixia turned around and didn't see Tan Wenjie, then looked back and saw a figure in the distance.
"you--!"
He came to assist, but suddenly he became the main attacker.
"Come and help quickly!"
"I thought you were going to show it." said Tan Wenjie.
Yan Chixia slapped the sword case and the flying sword flew out.
"This is the Yin and Yang realm, and the ghosts are much stronger!" Yan Chixia controlled the flying sword remotely to pierce through the dozen sedan chairs in front.
"Don't worry, I understand."
Tan Wenjie took off the ghost catcher's skin and felt the terrible touch of his body, as if frozen glue was applied to his body, making it difficult for his pores to breathe.
Fortunately, he had a two-piece set of "ghost" attribute magic weapons with a +2% resistance to Yin energy. When he moved here, he was affected much less than Yan Chixia, and he even felt like a fish in water.
The sedan chair was pierced by the dragon-like flying sword and shattered into pieces.
The little ghosts fled from the explosion in panic, and some of them were unlucky enough to be pierced by the flying swords on the spot.
"Yan Chixia, you are going too far!"
The coquettish figure of the Ghost King Nine-tailed Fox appeared.
She didn't know what Tan Wenjie's name was, so she could only stare at him fiercely.
Not only did they steal his magic weapon and injure him, but they even came to attack him.
Tan Wenjie nodded: "Yes, Yan Chixia, you are too much. It is said that widows are prone to gossip. I didn't expect you to be such a person and actually bully a widow."
The thunder and lightning in his hands were powerful, and they were like whips, lashing at the little ghosts as he swung them.
Yan Chixia, who was controlling the flying sword with sword techniques, took the time to turn around and gave Tan Wenjie the middle finger.
"you!"
When they were in Wumenju, in order not to destroy the bridal chamber, Tan Wenjie and Yan Chixia were very restrained in their actions, but now it was different.
Flying swords streaked across the sky and condensed into sword waterfalls, following the direction of Yan Chixia's finger like nimble long snakes swinging their tails and stabbing towards the Ghost King Nine-tailed Fox.
Thunder and lightning exploded, and the little ghosts fled in panic. Some of them were blown to death on the spot.
The furious Ghost King Nine-tailed Fox's black hair fluttered, and the nails on his hands turned into ten red lightning bolts to grab Tan Wenjie.
The air was cut by the lightning, causing a scream, and it rushed in front of him in just a moment.
Tan Wenjie leaned back to dodge, but saw a strand of hair on his forehead being cut off.
The skin on my forehead felt slightly cold, and I could still feel the sharpness brought by the wind.
"You messed up my hair!" Tan Wenjie stood up straight.
The red lightning quickly retreated.
He is famous for his love for beautiful women. The Ghost King is so handsome that if he doesn't punch him a few times, it will ruin his character.
He rushed forward and slammed his straight punch into the Ghost King's chest, and the lightning grabbed the Ghost King's body like a thorn in the flesh.
The tree-fork-shaped lightning split, like a big hand, and after colliding with the ghost energy, it relied on the unique characteristics of thunder magic to slay demons and forcibly break through the protective yin energy of the ghost king.
The chest armor didn't provide much of a cushioning effect, and the Ghost King was hit so hard that he trembled violently.
At the moment of life and death, the Ghost King also burst out with 200% of his strength. Under the dense rain of fists from Tan Wenjie, he seized the opportunity to counterattack and scratched his golden body, leaving bloody marks.
Another punch, Tan Wenjie was motionless, the Ghost King Nine-tailed Fox's chest was dented and his body shrank back.
Knowing that the enemy before him was difficult to deal with, he decided to escape temporarily and make long-term plans.
Without the red paper umbrella in her hand, her strength would be compromised. Tan Wenjie's thunder magic was the nemesis of demons and monsters. His body was wrapped in electric light as if covered with thorns, and every time he touched it, it would prick her palms and hurt.
"Wait for me to find an expert, you..." The Ghost King Nine-tailed Fox retreated.
Tan Wenjie: "Five Thunder Palm!"
All the magic power in his body was wasted with one palm strike.
Yan Chixia had also cleared away the entanglement of the little ghosts and nailed the ghost king Nine-tailed Fox to the ground with a sword. The ghost king, with white smoke coming out of his body, watched Tan Wenjie's palm gradually enlarge in front of him until his consciousness was replaced by a thunderous "boom".
The ghost king, the nine-tailed fox, was shattered to pieces.
"How could I let you go find help?"
Tan Wenjie recites the mantra for the dead on the spot. If there are still some fragments of the other party left after his soul is scattered, it will be a big problem. This is how it is played in many movies.
After defeating the Ghost King Nine-Tailed Fox, the brides she had killed were finally freed from her control and were also sent to reincarnation together.
If he fights with a woman, he will get scratched by his nails, so he prefers to watch women fight.
After finishing his work, Tan Wenjie checked the red paper umbrella.
[Magic weapon: Red paper umbrella (★★)]
[Level: 1 (0/4)]
[Ghost attribute damage +12%]
[Umbrella Transformation (Can differentiate into red umbrellas to attack, with 10% of its own attributes)]
[Hide your soul and hide your form (the red paper umbrella can block your breath and make it difficult for others to detect it)]
[Red paper umbrella held by the ghost king, the nine-tailed fox]
[Set attributes: Ghost (activated: 2-piece set) Yin resistance +20%; (activated: 4-piece set) Team-wide "Ghost" attribute damage +20%]
It is a magic weapon with "ghost" attributes.
The attributes of the four-piece suit were activated. On the basis of +20% resistance to Yin energy, the "ghost" attribute damage of all characters in the team was increased by +20%. He didn't even dare to imagine what the six-piece suit would do.
If you go to the underworld more often, you might be able to get two more pieces to make a 6-piece set.
The ghost attributes are too different from his compatibility, so the best person to equip the magic weapon with should be Chu Renmei. Considering Tan Wenjie's style of doing things based on himself, he thinks it is more appropriate for him to carry the four-piece set himself to save his life until there is a substitute.
"Why, are you sad that your old lover has passed away?" Tan Wenjie looked at Yan Chixia and found that he looked unhappy.
"She is also a poor person."
"Yes, she is a pitiful person, but she killed people at will after she became a ghost, so she deserved to die."
Tan Wenjie never worries about so many things.
No matter who does evil, there are all kinds of reasons. Wouldn't it be tiring for him to care about so many things?
