Chapter 44 The ghost! 【4K】
The person who came was none other than the leader of the Sparrow Demon Eater Snake who was guarding the bamboo forest in the south of Jindou Mountain with the Barbarian Bone Leader.
More than thirty years ago.
Shi Snake broke through and became the leader. In the past, he was considered the youngest among the leaders of Jindou Mountain.
Now the youngest has become Qi Hu.
"Qi Shanjun"
Seeing Qi Hu, Snake Eater immediately smiled and said.
Three years ago, the Lingdi Bamboo Forest was guarded by Black Wolf Yaolang San, the king’s sworn brother and the second leader of Jindou Mountain.
Before that, due to his personality, although Snake Eater became the leader, he had no monsters on the mountain who could be considered friends or close friends.
But since he was temporarily sent to guard the spiritual land by the king three years ago, he became familiar with Mangu, who guarded the bamboo forest together, and gradually became friends.
As the little demon under their command, Qi Hu was able to break through and become the leader. As their direct superiors, they were also honored.
In addition, Qi Hu has a good personality and is friendly, so he is naturally willing to make friends with him.
A fence has three stakes, and a hero has three gangs.
Although he has a cold personality and is not willing to take the initiative to curry favor, he naturally understands.
"Brother, are you coming back too?"
Looking at Eater Snake walking forward, Qi Hu smiled.
Due to the prevalence of sworn worship, it is not easy to call him eldest brother. It is slightly inappropriate to call him by his first name, but calling him brother is just right.
And before him, the youngest Snake Eater among the leaders of Jindou Mountain was sixty or seventy years old.
There is nothing wrong with Qi Hu calling me brother.
"Wanted."
"Except for the temporary summons from the King, our leader has to come to see the King once every three months."
Eating Snake said with a smile: "But the spirit land needs the leader to watch over it, and Mangu is on duty, so I will come, come here It won’t take long.”
“That’s it.”
Hearing Snake Eater’s explanation, Qi Hu nodded and said, “Then this time we count it as once every three months? Or is it a temporary summons from the King?”
“This is the scheduled time to see the King once every three months.”
Snake Eater smiled and said: "The king rarely calls us, except for me. I often go to the human race city to run errands for the king."
Hearing this.
Qi Hu expressed his understanding.
If you don’t have special flying magical powers, the flying speed of ordinary monsters is naturally not as fast as that of bird monsters.
Ever since he came to this world, he had the idea in his heart that he wanted to see this world and see the world.
But it was too weak before.
At this time, he became the leader. When Snake Eater said that he often went to the human world and that it was the legendary "Daughter's Kingdom", he naturally wanted to go to the human world.
However, considering that he has just broken through, his aura is unstable, and his strength is very limited, some plans to enhance his strength have not yet been put into practice.
It’s better to wait for a while and wait until your strength stabilizes.
Anyway, the eating snake will go to the human world in the future.
Well, that's it.
Forcibly suppressed the desire to go to the human world to gain experience.
Qi Hu continued to chat with Snake Eater.
Not long.
The figures of the big squirrel demon and the big leader Niu Er flew up from the bottom of the mountain one after another.
But you can't just rush into the King's Cave once all the leaders are here. You have to wait for the King to summon you.
So the four monster leaders were waiting in the forest next to Jindou Cave.
The big squirrel demon who finally went up the mountain was a little surprised to see Qi Hu and Eater Snake chatting well, so he also walked forward with a smile.
The past three years.
Big Man, Snake Eater and Big Leader Niu Er are basically waiting for each other at this time.
At this time, there was one more Qi Hu.
With Qi Hu regulating the relationship between Big Man and Snake Eater, it will not be so awkward.
So.
Not long after.
The three demons laughed out loud while chatting.
The three demons here were laughing and chatting happily, but it seemed that the lone bull demon leader Niu Er on the other side seemed out of place.
But Niu Er’s character has always been like this, he doesn’t care at all and has no interest.
Just at this moment, listening to the laughter of the three monsters next door, Niu Er curled his lips in disdain and thought to himself: "Only the weak need to stick together!"
Did not let the four monster leaders How long to wait.
The voice of the bull demon king Heijiao came from the Jindou Cave: "Come in, everyone."
Hear the king's call.
The big leader Niu Erma, who was standing uncomfortably, took the lead and strode towards Jindou Cave.
Qi Hu, the big Snake Eater, and three others followed immediately.
As I approached the door, I looked past the two little monsters guarding the door and looked at the three "Jindou Mountain" slanted above the cave, which looked like seal characters, but I could recognize the simple characters.
Qi Hu couldn't help but think in a wicked way: "I don't know if the king tied up the human scholar to write these three words, or how to get them, but it must be the big and thick bull demon in the mountain. Words written by King Black Horn himself"
He absolutely did not believe it.
This is the first time Qi Hu has walked into Jindou Cave.
The space inside the cave is very spacious, about twice as large as the cliffside cave where he lives now.
There are some colorful hanging decorations hung around the cave walls.
In the middle, there is a large stone table and several stone benches.
Behind it, there is a long colorful bead curtain that separates the back of the cave, allowing Qi Hu to not see the situation behind.
But he estimated that there was nothing more than a big bed behind it.
This cave decoration may seem beautiful and delicate to ordinary monsters.
But in the eyes of Qi Hu, who has been a demon for two generations, although the Jindou Mountain King Bull Demon Black Horn is powerful, the decoration of this cave is even the most common decoration of the wealthy human family in the world. Far inferior.
If he, Qi Hu, can one day achieve the cultivation level of the bull demon Black Horn at this time, then his cave will definitely...
Well, by then, he may not necessarily live in a cave.
As for the slightly weird-looking sommelier maid standing next to Heijiao, she was wearing tulle, with white flesh looming on her body.
With just one glance, Qi Hu stopped looking any further.
Why do most of the monsters transforming into humans look very inconsistent? That’s because the other party transforms into a human in the eyes of monsters, not a human in the eyes of humans.
Just like the banshee in front of me who completely transformed into a human.
Her appearance seemed very strange to Qi Hu, but she was similar to some women who had failed plastic surgery seen on the Internet in her previous life.
“They are all here”
At this time, sitting at the big stone table full of various fruits and meats, the bull demon Heijiao put down the small wine cup in his hand, pointed to a few stone benches and said: "Sit down."
Qi Hu, who was walking at the end, immediately stopped the cluttered thoughts in his mind, looked at the head in front of him and sat down at the stone table in a dignified manner.
Big Man and Snake Eater sat on the stone bench outside.
Qi Hu immediately stepped forward and sat on the outermost stone bench.
“Let’s talk about it.”
Black Horn picked up a fruit and threw it into his big mouth, and said casually.
Niu Er on the side had just taken a piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth. When he heard what his elder brother said, he quickly swallowed it and said, "In the past few months, there have been eleven new little monsters on our mountain. .”
The big leader Niu Er began to report on various aspects of Jindou Mountain.
Qi Hu sat aside and listened, and suddenly felt that he had gained a lot of knowledge.
Niu Er finished his report.
Black Corner nodded and said nothing.
Then the sparrow demon and the snake-eating snake began to report.
What Snake Eater was talking about was the quantity and growth of the elixirs in the spiritual land, as well as the troubles going on in the Shejing Ridge next door next to the spiritual land.
After hearing this, Heijiao just nodded and said nothing.
Qi Hu looked at the big man at this time. He originally thought that the big man would be like Niu Er and Eater Snake, but he found that the other man just kept sitting.
Soon, he reacted.
Niu Er and Shi Snake want to report because they are responsible for the main mountain and the spiritual land respectively.
The big ones don’t.
Same for myself. Next.
King Black Horn just asked Snake Eater some information about the spiritual land, and then waved his hand.
When the big man and Snake saw this, they immediately stood up and walked out.
Qi Hu followed him.
This was the end of his first experience with the leader monster gathering.
Soon.
The three demons walked out of Jindou Cave.
Only the big leader Niu Er remained in the cave.
But considering that Niu Er and Da Wang are sworn brothers.
Qi Hu didn't ask anything else.
Said a few words briefly.
The big leader left first.
Qi Hu told Snake Shi about his current residence. Snake Shi said he would come back to the mountain to visit again in the future, and then left.
Looking at the back of Snake Eater as he leaves.
Qi Hu, who had something on his mind, did not stay at the top of the mountain for long, and quickly flew towards his cave in the fog.
Return to the cave on the edge of the cliff.
I found that my eldest brother Changya and my second brother Dajiao were still meditating, so I didn’t bother them. I sat down in front of the fire pit, lit the almost extinguished fire, and took out a mortal from the storage magical power. After simply peeling off the skin and removing the internal organs, the animal and sheep carcasses were put on the grill and started roasting.
While grilling breakfast.
Qi Hu, on the other hand, was quietly thinking about some of the information he had learned from Big Man and Snake Eater.
He had previously thought about inviting the big man and Snake-eating to his cave for a drink.
However, he immediately realized that he didn't have a drop of wine at all.
There are only six or seven elixirs that the three brothers have accumulated in the past three years. They are all two, three, three or four years old. There is not even a five-year-old elixir.
This was accumulated by the king because he exempted the little demon below from the spiritual tax for three years in the three-year battle.
In short, Qi Hu is very poor now.
Fortunately, the three-year period has passed.
Although the elder brothers Changya and Dajiao have to continue to pay spiritual taxes.
But the more than twenty monster subordinates below him must also be turned over.
As the leader, Qi Hu not only does not have to pay the spiritual tax himself, but he can also take one-fifth of the spiritual tax paid by the little monsters below. This is good news, and it is also the privilege of the leader monster. .
Of course, if the spiritual tax paid by the little demon below is not enough, Qi Hu will have to pay for the spiritual elixir himself.
Looking at it this way, it is not easy to get the one-fifth of the commission.
But for the little demon who is in arrears.
The leaders naturally have their own ideas.
After all, the little demon’s own flesh and blood can be regarded as a walking elixir, which can barely be regarded as currency.
In addition to this most important aspect of spiritual taxation.
The leader's usual duties are basically to arrange some tasks for the little monsters. Those tasks are patrolling the mountain, cutting firewood for the kitchen, looking for new little monsters, etc. to maintain the normal operation of the entire Jindou Mountain.
However, it is not easy to earn elixir and blood food based on these responsibilities.
Basically speaking, apart from making some money from spiritual taxes, the leader has no other way to make money.
Of course, if you are good enough to please the king, you can also get some things from the king.
For example, wine, blood food, elixirs, etc.
Moreover, since the leader has a lot of time, he can also look for the elixir on his own.
But Qi Hu couldn’t afford to lose that face.
If he doesn’t find a way to make money through open source, he can only survive slowly in the mountains.
It can also be seen from this that although the monster leader at the psychic level is more comfortable than the average little monster, it is also very limited.
If you want to be relatively free, you must at least reach the level of your own king, and be able to monopolize a mountain top and become the king.
Digest the information heard from the mouth of the big man and the snake-eating snake.
Qi Hu thought about his situation again, and then made a decision. Tomorrow he would gather his demons and start learning new magical powers.
Although he has a system and a panel, you have to give him time so that he can slowly improve his cultivation.
But the problem is, he is short of time.
And he didn’t know when Sun Wukong, who was trapped under the Five Elements Mountain, would start following Tang Sanzang to learn Buddhist scriptures and travel westward.
Or maybe the prayer wheel has started turning and the team of pilgrims is already on the westbound road, but he doesn't know it.
Anyway, there is a threat from the learning team.
Qi Hu really didn’t dare to relax.
Although he has now become a leader-level monster, in the eyes of the three disciples of the scripture collection team and a group of gods, he is no different from a newborn little monster and can be crushed to death at any time.
The only difference between Qi Hu and before the breakthrough is that if he escapes from Jindou Mountain now, his chance of survival will be higher.
Maybe after the team of pilgrims arrives.
He will be able to escape early, but by that time, Taishang Laojun's green bull spirit has already descended to earth and occupied Jindou Mountain.
It is easy to imagine how dangerous it is to run away from a bull demon like Qing Niu Jing.
As for now, although his chance of escaping is higher than Xiao Yaoshi, it is only a little higher.
Given the current situation in Jindou Mountain, as long as he dares to escape, King Heijiao will definitely catch up with him, and he will not stop until he is caught.
What's more, let's not talk about whether Qi Hu can escape. Even if he escapes, he has nowhere to go.
The more I think about it, the more dizzy I feel, and the more I think about it, the more desperate I feel.
Qi Hu stopped decisively and stopped thinking about it.
Anyway, the current priority is to do our best to improve our strength. As for the future, go to hell!
This is the thought.
Qi Hu shook his head and returned his gaze to the roasted lamb on the grill in front of him.
“What smells so good?”
At this time, the sound of long teeth suddenly sounded in the cave.
Qi Hu looked up and saw that his eldest brothers Chang Ya and Da Jiao had woken up and were staring at the roasted lamb on the grill and swallowing hard.
“It’s better to be the third brother”
Chang Ya quickly stood up and said with a smile: "I know that my eldest brother has been busy all night and his stomach is empty, hehe"
"The third brother is so early today"
Dajiao also stood up and looked at Qi Hu smiled.
For Chang Ya and Da Jiao, one of the biggest benefits of Qi Hu becoming the leader is that they no longer have to perform exhausting tasks like other little monsters every day.
Outside the cave, there are steep cliffs and heavy snow.
In the cave, the three brothers gathered around the fire, eating roast lamb and chatting. They were very comfortable for a while.
Early the next morning.
The snow has passed and the sky is sunny.
Beside the cave.
In the flat mountain forest.
A strong bonfire was lit early, with a large cooking pot on top. In the pot were large bones and chunks of meat. In the rich soup, there were also various green, purple, yellow and other side dishes and wild spices floating in the pot.
The cold wind blew, and the deer demon Dajiao stirred it up with a long pot and spoon. The fragrance spread for ten miles, making the more than 20 little demons gathered not far away salivate.
Beside the cauldron.
The ivory tusks were chopping up bones and flesh on the side.
On the other side.
After finishing the preparation, Qi Hu looked at the drooling little demons, pointed at one of his kind and said: "You, that tiger demon, you come first"
Not long after.
A virtual prompt flashed in front of Qi Hu's eyes: [You have learned the magical power "Ghost".]
Soon.
Qi Hu released his arm on the tiger demon and said, "Go over and eat."
"Thank you, leader!"
The tiger demon shouted excitedly and quickly rushed to the cauldron.
Qi Hu turned his head and looked at the monsters in front of him. He looked at the black bear monster at the front who was squeezing hard and said: "It's just you. Your name is Dahei, right? Come up."
