Zhuo Fei couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in secret - even if the traces of human beings are just a small part, they are enough to make people feel at ease.

The night became even more gloomy.

Continue down the mountain along the forest path. Zhuo Fei never thought that the dark world could be so gloomy and terrifying that he could clearly feel the malice that penetrated deep into the forest. As the night deepened, devilish whispers came from the darkness, and more and more. Later, he even made a slight sound, and some things had approached him without any concealment...

The light of the fireflies can only illuminate five meters away from front to back, which also becomes a safe distance for his psychological defense.

Five meters away, there were ghosts. There were a few times before and after, Zhuo Fei almost collapsed and couldn't help but scream and rushed over. But those things in the dark would also flee in panic amid a burst of requests.

After walking like this for more than ten minutes, Zhuo Fei was already sweating profusely and his body was full of coldness.

A small mountain appeared in front of him. Zhuo Fei took a few steps quickly, but after turning a big tree, he saw a ray of light coming from below the small mountain.

A shrine!?

A bluestone shrine shines slightly at night because it is covered with fireflies.

Zhuo Fei was cheered up and hurriedly ran towards the shrine.

boom--

Zhuo Fei, who was walking as fast as a flying fireflies that fell on the statue of the gods were so shocked that they flew up, flying all over the sky, as chaotic as stars.

At the same time, the flying fluorescent light also illuminated a larger area. After revealing the shrine, a hunched figure with his back facing the road.

Crack, Crack...

A strange sound came from the figure.

"Who? Come out!" Zhuo Fei paused and asked coldly.

The strange voice paused instantly, and the figure shrank into the dark shadow with some fear...

"Young man, don't scare the poor old woman..." A weak and old voice came from the shadows, "I was just too hungry to steal the offerings of the Bodhisattva..."

Under the remaining fluorescent light, Zhuo Fei saw the offerings that were flipped in the shrine, and the hunched back was indeed like a short and thin old woman.

The old woman was indeed very thin. Although she couldn't see her face, her calves exposed outside the clothes were as rough as a piece of dead wood, making the worn-out clothes look extremely fat, as if she was peeled off from someone else's body, and she still had a foul smell.

Although he was a strange old woman, Zhuo Fei was relieved. "Sorry for being disturbed, old man. Is there a village nearby? It's dark, I want to stay for one night..."

"Is the village? There is... the old lady's home is there... But you don't have to go that far. Just follow the path and climb the ridge in front of you and you will see an inn..." The old lady replied, "That's a good place. The owner and his wife of that inn are all good people... With them, the old lady can eat a lot of good things..."

Crack, Crack...

A strange chewing sounded again.

When he heard the inn, Zhuo Fei instantly thought of the soft bed and the hot bath water...

"Thank you, old man." Zhuo Fei hugged his fists and showed an etiquette of ancient martial arts.

Turning around and about to leave, I heard the old woman crying to herself: "Under the big tree..., who dares to pass there?... Cut it into bun filling, but put it to fill the river. Hehehe... a good place, a good place."

Crack, Crack...

The voice is weird and the smile is terrifying.

Zhuo Fei's body shook, and the old woman's muttered something made him feel familiar.

I think I've heard it somewhere?

No matter what.

Let’s leave this ghost place first and go to a crowded place.

However, before leaving, you must first collect the "wish power". This is the top priority.

Zhuo Fei bowed to the statue of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, reached his hand on the statue of Bodhisattva, and silently recited the "Voice System".

Ding. The prompt sound is on—

"Discover the power of voluntary power, will it be absorbed?"

"Absorb." Zhuo Fei's thoughts moved, and the vows stored on the statue turned into a gurgling hot stream, which was absorbed by the "vows system".

"The power of vows" is the power of vows and faith, and also includes the merits condensed by doing good deeds.

Zhuo Fei's method of obtaining "vote power" is to absorb the faith power of believers from the statue of God, and to accumulate merit and vow power by accumulating virtue and doing good deeds.

The previous 500 vows came from the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva beside the stone bridge.

"Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, bless my son to live a hundred years and be healthy..."

"Bodhisattva Bodhisattva, bless me to keep my luck in gambling this time!"

"Let me give birth to a son, let me give birth to a son... no, let my wife give birth to a son..."

...

As the "power of vows" was absorbed, the believers' wishes were also echoing in Zhuo Fei's ears.

bite.

The power of wishes is absorbed and completed. "100 power of wishes".

【Voice 200】.

But at the same time, "100 karma".

【Karma 100】.

"Karma" and "Voice" complement each other, especially this kind of act of seeking freely from Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, while obtaining "Voice", it will also obtain equal amounts of "Karma".

"Karma" originally refers to the power of cause and effect, and there is no distinction between good and evil, but the "karma" here is "sin karma" and is the sin caused by evil deeds.

Once a certain value is reached, it will be dragged into an extremely dangerous "sin space" that cannot be controlled by humans.

However, Zhuo Fei is already in it, and in order to improve his strength, he can't take care of much.

——A reimbursement from the Bodhisattva is also a sin!

As soon as the karma changed, Zhuo Fei felt the atmosphere around him tighten, as if the malice in the forest became restless, and countless faint lights projected on him.

"What are you doing?"

The smell was so stinking that the old woman suddenly leaned over and stretched her extremely terrifying face to Zhuo Fei - her head as black and shriveled as a skeleton, her red eyes were covered with bloodshot, and the corners of her drooping mouth opened downward, revealing her sharp fangs with bright red flesh wrapped around it, and her saliva flowed down uncontrollably, as if she wanted to eat people, which was particularly terrifying.

ah!?

Zhuo Fei was startled by the old woman's sudden appearance and suddenly jumped more than three meters away.

"Young man, you stole the Bodhisattva... You stole..."

Amid the insanely whispered, the old woman slowly got up and showed her true image under the fluorescent light.

With a huge ghost head, his body was shriveled and thin, his limbs and neck were as thin and long as dry wood. He could break it at any time when he put it in the Buddha, but his belly was bloated like a hill. Looking at Zhuo Fei's eyes, he looked at Zhuo Fei's eyes with extremely greedy light, as if he had discovered something more delicious than the food in his hand, and the saliva at the corners of his mouth was also secreted more vigorously. "Your taste... smell, it smells very fragrant!"

The old woman walked step by step from the shadows, stretched her hands forward, and grabbed Zhuo Fei.

At this time, Zhuo Fei's eyes were at its peak. He finally saw clearly what the old woman had been gnawing on - it was not a offering at all, but a piece of human child's forearm, which was broken at the elbow, and most of the tender flesh on the elbow had been torn, revealing pale bones...
