After all, judging from your appearance, you certainly don't look like you're carrying a heavy load!
After hearing this, Xiao Huo smiled and said:
"Haha, interesting, really interesting, what do you think?"
Scholar: "I feel it's true, although I don't know how you did it."
However, I have also seen those powerful martial artists.
They can unleash hundreds of pounds of force with a casual movement.
Carrying such a heavy ruler, weighing several hundred pounds, should be a piece of cake, right?
Xiao Huo: "Haha, you scholar, you're quite interesting."
However, there's no need to talk about these things. As for the weight of what's behind me? Hahaha, you'd never guess!!!
Upon hearing this, the scholar's gaze toward Xiao Huo subtly changed!
"It seems that the weight of your thing is extraordinary!"
Chapter 391 A Chance Encounter in the Middle of the Night: A Wolf Spirit!
After hearing this, Xiao Huo simply smiled and said:
"It's barely passable! By the way, does the scholar know where that place over there is?"
Upon hearing this, the scholar looked over, then frowned and said:
"Are you referring to Guiyun Manor, brother?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Huo also became curious and said:
"You know that?"
The scholar nodded and said:
"Guiyun Manor, I've heard that this manor is quite mysterious, especially the manor lord, who is a martial arts expert."
However, few people have seen it. This manor is even more mysterious. It is said that there are ghost stories inside that can bewitch people. No one knows if they are true or false!
After hearing this, Xiao Huo narrowed his eyes and said:
"Those bandits just now headed in the direction of this village!"
Upon hearing this, the scholar's eyes widened in disbelief, and he said:
"Wait, no way! You mean Guiyun Manor is doing that kind of business with no capital!"
Xiao Huo: "I don't know, but I'm getting interested. Okay, I'll stop here and go take a look."
"Scholar, we'll meet again someday. Oh, by the way, since you helped me with my questions, here are some things for you."
After saying that, Xiao Huo casually tossed him a pill and said:
"Although this pill was made casually by me, it can still cleanse the marrow and strengthen the body. Let's go!"
After saying that, Xiao Huo leaped into the air, lightly touched the water's surface with his feet, and then disappeared into the air like a large bird.
Upon seeing this, the scholar's eyes widened, revealing a look of shock.
"I never imagined I'd encounter such a powerful expert here!!!"
.......................................
On the other side, Xiao Huo arrived at the shore and was about to set off to take a look.
Suddenly it stopped, and then a figure wearing a human skin mask was seen heading towards Guiyun Manor.
"Grandmaster, interesting, there's actually a Grandmaster here!"
Then, Xiao Huo followed at a distance, watching this scene unfold.
Before long, they arrived at Guiyun Manor with the help of others.
As soon as I arrived, I heard the sound of flutes rising and falling, like waves crashing one after another.
Seeing this, Xiao Huo didn't care. Instead, he frowned and quickly arrived above Guiyun Manor.
Then, a familiar yet unfamiliar scene unfolded.
A few minutes later, Xiao Huo's lips twitched, and he said:
"The Legend of the Condor Heroes? Are you kidding me? How could such a plot appear here?"
This is so strange, so incredibly strange!!!
After thinking about it for a while, Xiao Huo decided to ignore it, since he knew something about the situation in this place.
Moreover, Xiao Huo had no intention of interfering in the affairs of mortals.
Afterwards, they left Guiyun Manor and headed towards West Lake.
In this generation, Xiao Huo had already found the way.
A day later, Xiao Huo sat alone in a roadside grove, with a campfire burning and a pheasant roasting on it.
Furthermore, he kept drinking the monkey wine in his hand, which was brewed from spiritual fruits, and it greatly helped his cultivation.
Just as the roast chicken was almost ready, footsteps suddenly came from not far away.
The sound was very urgent, as if it were being chased by something.
Upon hearing the sound, Xiao Huo paid no attention and continued to fiddle with his roasted chicken.
Just then, a figure suddenly darted out of the woods at an extremely fast speed.
The person was dressed in emerald green and looked like a very beautiful young girl.
As soon as the beautiful woman appeared, she saw Xiao Huo roasting chicken, and her face lit up with joy. She said:
"May I borrow your campfire?"
After saying that, he came to Xiao Huo's side and pulled out a fire stick.
Seeing this, Xiao Huo revealed a smile.
"It's her! I've come all this way, and I still managed to run into her. This is really interesting!"
Just as Xiao Huo was about to say what time it was, suddenly, a wolf howl rang out, and then a huge figure walked out of the forest.
Upon seeing what came out, Xiao Huo was immediately stunned and said:
"A wolf spirit that has gained sentience!!"
Upon hearing Xiao Huo's words, the girl beside him was taken aback, and then said:
"What wolf spirit? This is some kind of incredibly powerful strange beast."
Judging from your appearance, you must also be a martial artist. Be careful, this beast is very powerful. My skills are completely ineffective against it!
Upon hearing this, Xiao Huo said with a speechless expression:
"You... call this a strange beast? This thing doesn't even qualify. It's some kind of wolf spirit that came out of nowhere."
However, that shouldn't be the case. Although the Song Dynasty isn't great, it still has the suppression of the imperial court's fortune. You shouldn't have become a spirit.
At the very least, it shouldn't be so easy for spirits to become sentient here; this place isn't some remote mountain forest.
Hey, tell me, how exactly did you become a spirit?
Upon hearing this, the girl looked at Xiao Huo as if he were an idiot, and was about to say something.
But at that moment, Xiao Huo simply placed his Xuanzhong Ruler sample in front of him.
Instantly, the ground cracked, and then, flames instantly surrounded Xiao Huo, centered on him.
In an instant, the wolf spirit, who had been looking at the girl with a mocking expression, knelt down right before her eyes.
"Please, Great Immortal, please release this little demon! I just accidentally swallowed a five-hundred-year-old ginseng, which is how I gained sentience and ended up in this situation."
"Please, Great Immortal, release this lowly demon! I haven't done anything wrong!!!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Huo glanced at it indifferently, flames rising in his eyes.
"You're riddled with sins, yet you claim to be innocent? Do you really think I'm a fool?"
Upon hearing this, the wolf spirit stopped kneeling and begging. Instead, it slowly stood up and looked at Xiao Huo with murderous intent in its eyes.
"Kid, let me go, or we'll just die together!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Huo said with a speechless expression:
"Die together? Hah, are you kidding me? You think you can take me down with your life?!"
Moreover, little demon, haha, you're at most a spirit, yet you want to be a demon? You don't even have a basic human form, how can you be called a demon? You're truly a fool!
Upon hearing this, the wolf spirit turned red and charged straight at Xiao Huo without saying a word.
"Be careful!!"
After seeing this, the girl gave a reminder.
Just then, Xiao Huo made his move, swinging out the Xuanzhong Ruler in his hand.
In an instant, the Xuanzhong Ruler, burning with flames, landed directly on the wolf spirit.
In an instant, a scream rang out, and then the wolf spirit was turned into charred remains.
Upon seeing this, the girl's eyes widened in disbelief!
At this moment, Xiao Huo put away his Xuanzhong Ruler, went to the side, picked up his roast chicken, and continued eating.
Upon seeing this, the girl walked over, looking hesitant and timid, and said:
"Um, are you... an immortal? And that's a wolf demon?"
Hearing this, Xiao Huo glanced at her, then shook his head and said:
"I wouldn't call it that. I'm just a cultivator, and at most, my strength is just average."
As for the one we just saw, it was just a small spirit, not a demon.
After all, he was just an old wolf who had barely managed to refine his transverse bone so that he could speak.
A monster, at the very least, must have a human form and be able to stand upright to be called a monster.
