Chapter 27: Kill the Mountain King and Eat the Tiger "Mad man, this is a mad man, get him out of here!" The second young master of the Cui family shouted loudly, but the fear and panic in his eyes could not be concealed. The servants wanted to rush forward to drive Zhang Jiuyang away, but were stopped by the eldest son. "Don't move, my father's death is indeed not right, please give me some advice, Taoist priest!" There was a strange look in his eyes, and he glanced at his brother calmly. Seeing that the matter was about to be exposed, the second young master looked at Yuqin for help, but saw that she, who had always been smart, was now pale and looked frightened. Why did the fortune teller Zhang Jiuyang come here? "Everyone, Old Master Cui did not die of old age, nor did he die of illness, but..." Zhang Jiuyang's gaze fell on the Second Young Master and Yuqin. Just as he was about to speak, a ruthless look flashed in Yuqin's eyes and she immediately interrupted him.

No matter whether he really knows it or pretends to know it, he must never be allowed to say it out loud! "Shut up, here—ugh!" A ghost hand covered her mouth, and Ali floated behind her with a cold voice. "Brother Jiu, I didn't ask you to speak." Yuqin only felt that her mouth suddenly lost its voice and she couldn't open it no matter what, as if her lips were sewn shut with needle and thread. Witch Li wanted to take action, but was blocked by Zhang Jiuyang. With the aura locked on her, she did not dare to act rashly. After all, she did not know the strength of the young Taoist priest. "Two days ago, Old Master Cui woke up from a dream and saw the second young master having an affair with Yuqin. He fainted from excitement." Suddenly, the crowd almost exploded, all of them looked incredulous. "But Old Master Cui was not dead at the time. He just fainted from anger. And this couple, in order to cover up the secret, chose to suffocate Old Master Cui to death!" "Poor Mr. Cui, he was so wise all his life, but in the end he died at the hands of his own wife and children!" This is the truth behind Old Master Cui’s sudden death. At that time, Ali only calculated that he would die in three days. Zhang Jiuyang thought he died from excessive indulgence, but he didn't expect that he was suffocated to death! Only people who died of suffocation would have bruises and swelling on their faces that appear black and purple. Old Master Cui suffered such an unexpected death, so he naturally had deep resentment and kept making trouble at home. So the two men invited Li, a famous witch in Dongguan County, to cast a soul-drying spell to suppress his resentment, and then they hurried to bury the old man. However, he was forcibly stopped by Zhang Jiuyang, and their scandal was made public. There was no trace of blood on the Second Young Master's face at this moment, and he looked at Zhang Jiuyang with an extremely horrified look. How did he know? Could he really talk to corpses? "Impossible, you are talking nonsense..." He could only try to make excuses, but was coldly interrupted by Zhang Jiuyang.

"Old Master Cui also told me that he has been watching you these days. You and Madam Yuqin are so happy. Last night, when you were keeping vigil, you took away her bellyband, which was embroidered with a golden peacock. Now it is hidden under the pillow in your room!" Boom! These words were like a bolt of lightning that struck the Second Young Master's heart, making him pale and distraught. His will was not strong to begin with, and now that Zhang Jiuyang had broken his will, he staggered and muttered to himself. "No, don't blame me, blame my dad, it's all his fault!" "Yuqin and I have known each other for a long time. She said she wanted to be my bride, but..." "He's already over 80 years old, why is he still trying to snatch a woman from me!" He became more and more excited as he spoke, and his whole body was shaking. One stone caused a thousand waves! The onlookers were all shocked and pricked up their ears, afraid of missing a single word. The whole house is full of filial piety! I didn't expect that the Cui family father and son would become enemies because of a woman! Zhang Jiuyang shook his head. In fact, Yuqin did not lie. She said she would be your bride, so she would be your new bride. "How dare you! You must have cast a curse on the Second Young Master!" "Look, I'll ask the mountain king to subdue you, the demon!" Seeing that the Second Young Master, this stupid teammate, took the initiative to admit it and the situation became increasingly unfavorable, Li Shenpo knew that she had no choice but to take the risk, otherwise the 300-year-old precious ginseng would be lost. She took out a handful of broken bones from her bosom, scattered them casually, and then danced like a shaman, muttering something. The next moment, the broken bones actually began to dance on their own. Roar! Following a tiger roar, strong winds blew around, and a colorful tiger appeared on the spot. It was as big as a blue ox, with fierce and bloodthirsty eyes, its front paws slightly bent, and its body emitted faint thunderous sounds. There is a kind of breathtaking domineering aura. "It's a big bug!" "Run, there's a big bug!" "The big bug is eating people!" When the onlookers saw the tiger appear, they were so frightened that they scattered like birds and beasts. After a while, only Zhang Jiuyang and others were left. The middle-aged man who came with Zhang Jiuyang was also very scared, and trembled as he said, "Master Zhang...or, let's just run away." Seeing the tiger approaching, he was so frightened that he couldn't even speak clearly. Zhang Jiuyang stared intently at the tiger walking towards him. Is this the tiger that the other party invited? Now he understood that the pile of bones scattered by the witch Li were actually tiger bones, which she used to summon the remaining soul of the tiger. And judging from the size of this tiger, it was probably not an ordinary tiger when it was alive, but had reached the level of a demon. But... I can fight! Zhang Jiuyang calmly placed one hand on the hilt of the sword.

The remaining soul of the tiger demon also belongs to the category of ghost. As long as it is a ghost, it will be much easier to deal with. But this was his first time fighting a living person, so he was extremely serious. The magic power in his body circulated according to the practice route of the Fire Dragon and Water Tiger Diagram, and emitted faint sounds of dragon roars and tiger howls. In his eyes, the tiger's movements seemed to become slower and slower, and every hair could be seen clearly, like a slow motion movie in his previous life. Ali wanted to help, but he shook his head and refused. It's a good opportunity to use this tiger to test the results of my practice. Roar! The tiger seemed to sense the danger, and its hair stood up like inverted needles. It roared and rushed towards Zhang Jiuyang, its sharp teeth flashing cold light, and its movements were swift and fierce. too slow! The look in Zhang Jiuyang's eyes became more and more compelling, as bright as the sun. Clang! With a clear sword sound, the sword was finally unsheathed. Although the sword failed to be refined, it was sealed with spirituality by the Seven Star Treasure Scroll and was cleansed by pure yang fire, so some yang fire power remained, making it the most effective in defeating ghosts. Roar! The tiger roared again, but this time it was no longer fierce and domineering, but a mournful cry. A huge tiger head rolled to the ground. The cut was as smooth as a mirror, as red as charcoal, and emitting wisps of black smoke. But even after being beheaded by a sword, the tiger was still moving on the ground, and its headless body was struggling to get up. Zhang Jiuyang sighed lightly, it was a pity that the magic sword for slaying ghosts had not been refined, otherwise just that sword would be enough to kill the remaining soul of the tiger demon. "you you--" Witch Li's face was haggard and her eyes were full of horror. He killed a mountain monster with one sword, and heard terrifying roars of dragons and tigers. Who on earth is this little Taoist priest? Ignoring her, Zhang Jiuyang stepped on the tiger's head, and the extremely pure magic power in his body, which had been tempered by water and fire, surged like a rushing river or a mighty thunder. Click! Cracks actually appeared on the tiger's head, and then it shattered with a loud bang, turning into black smoke that poured into Zhang Jiuyang's mouth. Tiger eating! Snapped! Snapped! Snapped! Snapped…… As the remaining soul of the tiger demon was devoured, the tiger bones also exploded one after another. With each broken piece, the face of the witch Li became paler. In the end, she even spat out a mouthful of black blood and fainted. belch! Zhang Jiuyang burped and patted his stomach. He was impulsive. Yunniang had already let him eat too much, and now he had eaten the remaining soul of a tiger demon. But fortunately, this remnant soul is far different from Yunniang, so just treat it as a snack. Who hasn’t had a snack after dinner? …… (End of this chapter)
