Chapter 195 is actually a monster in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas"?
Thoughts flashed.
Zhang Hao raised his hand and fumbled around in the Guling Basket for a while, then, holding the Guling Basket on his shoulder, he moved forward little by little.
"Zhengzhengzheng..."
"Zhengzhengzheng..."
The voice was getting closer, clearer, and more demonic. When Zhang Hao heard the voice at first, he would struggle for a while, trying to get rid of the seemingly manipulated look, and his expression was rather grim. ferocious.
But later on, Zhang Hao seemed to stop struggling and kept moving forward without any intention of stopping or hesitating. The expression on his face returned to normal, and he looked a little sluggish. It was as if he was being manipulated, but he still held the thunder calamity wooden hammer tightly in his hand, and you could see the veins popping up on the back of his hand.
"Zhengzhengzheng..."
"Zhengzhengzheng..."
The sound is still coming, and you can even hear the excitement in the sound, as if you have seen the scene you want to see the most, and you can already imagine the scene you want to realize.
In this way, Zhang Hao walked forward, stepped on the forest path from the weeds beside the forest path, and stood among the thick trees on both sides.
He just walked forward without looking back or stopping. His eyes were always looking forward.
"Zhengzhengzheng..."
Listening to this voice, Zhang Hao felt it was very pleasant. His hand holding the Thunder Tribulation Hammer was trembling slightly, but he quickly suppressed the emotions surging in his heart.
Sure enough, it was similar to what he had guessed. Although this spirit insect was quite capable and strong, it had no brains. As long as he pretended to be controlled by the cry, the spirit insect would keep making sounds at him. He thought is continuing to control him.
In fact, this spirit insect didn't even notice the action of holding the thunder calamity wooden hammer, or even the thing that he had put his hand into the spirit-solidifying basket to fumble for.
It has to be said that the same principle applies to mountain treasures, spiritual insects, and even those beasts that have opened their spiritual intelligence. The gap between their so-called spiritual intelligence and human beings is still quite large, and the most important thing is, These things are really easy to fool. As long as you pay a little attention, you can fool them.
Of course, it is easy to deceive these things, but how to catch them is a difficult problem.
Zhang Hao had no experience in catching spiritual insects before, nor did he know much about spiritual insects. When he fell into Huangpizi's trap before, he suspected that it was spiritual insects, but later he denied this idea, so Naturally, I don’t know much about spiritual insects.
And if you do this temporarily... it is indeed easy to make mistakes.
However, Zhang Hao has already thought about it. If the spirit insect is too difficult to catch, he will not mind letting the spirit insect go first, and then catch the spirit insect when he is ready.
After all, he was afraid that the thunder tribulation wooden hammer alone would not be able to subdue the spirit insect. Even if he added the things he took out from the temple, he might not be able to accurately catch the spirit insect.
What's more, the things taken out from the temple were used to catch mountain treasures. If they were used on this spiritual insect, it would be a bit of a waste.
Compared with the mountain treasures, the value of spiritual insects is naturally lower, and the priority is naturally to catch the mountain treasures first. If the mountain treasures cannot be caught, then only those things can be considered to catch the spiritual insects.
After completely clearing his thoughts, Zhang Hao squinted his eyes and continued walking forward. He already felt that the voice was getting closer and closer, as if it was not far ahead, and as if he was about to encounter that thing. .
But at this moment, the scene in front of him changed again.
He suddenly felt that the surrounding trees were receding, and the road under his feet was also receding rapidly, but in an instant, everything began to solidify and stand still, as if time had been stopped.
In fact, his thoughts began to become stagnant again.
Zhang Hao suddenly woke up with thoughts in his mind.
Then, he quickly used his teeth to bite the tip of his tongue hard.
According to folklore, if you are in a hallucination or feel being manipulated, biting the tip of your tongue can help you wake up as soon as possible, break your karma, and break away from the hallucination.
However, it is recorded in [Illustrated Records of Traveling in the Mountains] that biting the tip of the tongue is a relatively dangerous behavior, and its use is not that wide. It does have some effects on dispelling hallucinations, but its most fundamental function is to stabilize the mind and make people feel more relaxed. Your mind is always kept in a relatively stable state without too many emotional fluctuations.
Hallucinations usually occur when the mood fluctuates greatly, and these things can take advantage of them.
Large mood swings are not called big mood swings because of anger, happiness, etc. Even if they are caused by too much thinking or too many thoughts, they are still big mood swings.
At this time, the main reason why Zhang Hao bit the tip of his tongue was to keep his mind calm at all times and not to be affected by that thing again.
The next second, the heart-breaking pain hit his heart, and he felt that his mouth was filled with the taste of blood, and the feeling of stagnant thoughts and slow movements disappeared in an instant.
Zhang Hao resisted the urge to take a deep breath and the movement to recover. He still forced himself to maintain his previous state, and also controlled his body at all times, pretending to be the same as before.
Only in this way can the spirit insect be fished out. As long as it dares to show up, Zhang Hao can find a way to catch it.
Sure enough.
At this moment, just when Zhang Hao felt like he was being manipulated, he discovered that on a tree not far in front of him, there was a snake whose color was almost exactly the same as the bark of the tree, and it was as long as a snake. An ordinary thing was clinging to the bark of the tree, with its head stretched out and looking towards him.
It's this thing...the spirit insect that has been attacking him before is this thing!
Zhang Hao suppressed his intention to rush forward and give him a blow, but maintained his previous slowness and continued to walk forward slowly, even more slowly.
Perhaps that thing felt that Zhang Hao had been completely controlled, so it relaxed a little. Suddenly, it flew from that tree to a tree closer to Zhang Hao.
That’s right, it’s for flying!
It was the flight of this spiritual insect that really allowed Zhang Hao to see the entire shape of the thing.
That thing looked like a snake, but it had four wings on its back, and the head of that thing was not the head of a snake at all, but more like... the heads of various animals in the forest, fused together to appear. This "looks like nothing". However, with only one glance, Zhang Hao could not observe too carefully and could only see the general shape of the thing.
But just this glance reminded Zhang Hao of a strange creature he had seen when he was a child.
That was the "Book of Mountains and Seas" that his father read to him when he was a child. There was a kind of insect in it called the piano insect.
The lute insect looks like a snake, but has the head of an animal, four wings, a certain amount of spiritual consciousness and supernatural powers, and can fly. The biggest feature is that the sound of the lute insect is like the sound of a guqin. , hence the name Qin Chong.
Of course, this is based on the records in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" and is not a record of real documents.
And the four wings of the harp insect in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" are like those of an eagle, a bird, but hairless, instead of the transparent wings like the thing I just saw. The transparent wings are more like flies. Mosquito-like wings.
Moreover, the sound of the lute insect is like the sound of a guqin, while the sound of this thing is more like the sound of some kind of musical instrument. There is still a slight difference between the two.
While he was thinking about it, Zhang Hao keenly discovered that the thing was getting closer and closer to him, and its screams were getting louder and louder. At this time, it opened its mouth and spit out a snake-like letter, shrinking back and forth. For a moment, Zhang Hao wondered if he had just seen it wrong.
He held the Thunder Tribulation wooden hammer tightly and waited quietly, thinking about countermeasures.
"Zhengzhengzheng!"
"Zhengzhengzheng!"
At this time, the thing moved again!
Just listen to it shouting excitedly, suddenly jumped up from the bark of the tree, and rushed towards Zhang Hao, and the transparent wings behind the thing began to flap one after another, dragging his not-so-large But the long body was flying hard in mid-air.
Zhang Hao's forehead was already covered with sweat. He didn't know what danger this thing would bring if it jumped at him, and he didn't know what would happen if this thing hit his face.
More importantly, he was thinking whether he could kill Him with one hammer.
If this was hammered to death, the point of his pretense would be gone. After all, he was not trying to catch a dead spiritual insect.
But if the hammer is swung lightly, it may not cause too much damage to the thing, or it may run away.
It’s really hard to choose.
but.
Zhang Hao was too lazy to think about it. He flipped his hand and suddenly raised the thunder tribulation wooden hammer in his hand: "Fuck you! Give me a hammer!"
The thunder calamity wooden hammer in his hand swung towards the "nothing like" head of the thing.
And Zhang Hao also clearly saw that the excited expression on the thing's face disappeared instantly, as if it was confused, and its eyes were full of doubts, as if to say: What's going on? Why can you still move? Why can you still swing a hammer?
However, before he had much time to react, the thunder calamity wooden hammer had already arrived at his head.
Boom!
Accompanied by a thunderous sound, the Thunder Tribulation wooden hammer struck the thing's head accurately. The thing that looked like a musical instrument drew a perfect parabola in mid-air like a piece of cargo being thrown out. Fly out.
And Zhang Hao did not stop. After swinging the hammer, he ran in the direction of the thing flying. If nothing happened to the thing after passing the hammer, he was afraid that it would get up and run away. , I must not give him this opportunity.
This is also His idea.
The moment it flew out, the thing waved its transparent wings in mid-air, trying to kill the inertia of the flying thing.
But at this moment.
Suddenly there were several little red paper figures on the ground.
Those little red paper figures were standing in the weeds with their hands raised, as if they were welcoming His arrival.
At this moment, he was a little confused again.
Because in his impression, he had killed this little red paper man before and destroyed it easily.
But why do so many appear at once?
But before he knew the reason, he fell straight into the arms of those little red paper figures.
And those little red paper figures clung to Him, not giving Him any chance to struggle, so He could only do this and wait.
Immediately afterwards, he saw a huge figure running hurriedly from a short distance away. It was the mountain walker who had just hammered himself to death with a small wooden hammer that could make thunder!
However, the next second.
Zhang Hao had already come closer and took out the Buddha bead bracelet that had been placed in the incense ashes by Master Jinggen himself from the spiritual basket and was contaminated with Buddha nature.
Holding the bracelet in his hand, he put the bracelet on the thing without hesitation, and even looped it around.
After the winding was completed, the thing felt as if it had been struck by lightning, and its snake-like body stood stiff and motionless.
Zhang Hao then relaxed and sat on the floor, just looking at the thing quietly.
As long as it is entangled with this Buddha bead, it will be completely unable to escape. The Buddha beads placed by Master Jinggen into the incense ashes have extremely strong Buddha nature and have the property of imprisonment.
Originally, Zhang Hao used this thing to imprison the mountain treasure, but it was not obvious that the spirit insect was used first, but it had to be used. Otherwise, it would just rely on a few small red papers that Zhang Hao had thrown out earlier. There is no way for humans to entangle this thing. As a result, Zhang Hao could only use this Buddhist bead to imprison this spiritual insect.
Fumbling with the stubble on his chin, Zhang Hao squinted his eyes and thought.
The most urgent task now is to first see what this spiritual insect is.
