Chapter 404: Chanting Scriptures to Save the Evil Bear

Xiong Gang stood up with his tall body, his arms slightly spread out, in a alert posture.

This action made the figure behind him look like a child.

The figure was still wearing a school uniform and looked like a high school student.

The boy grabbed Xiong Gang's clothes, revealing half of his head. His eyes were full of red bloodshot, his lips were bitten by himself, there were many scratches on his neck, and there was an indescribable fear on his face.

In this situation.

It is not advisable to conflict with Xiong Gang.

So Wu Xian greeted him in a friendly manner: "Brother Xiong, we parted a little hastily last time, and I was just looking for a chance to chat with you."

Xiong Gang bared his teeth and scolded: "Who is your brother Xiong? Are you trying to get close to me and attack me again?"

Wu Xian was also angered by him: "I heard that many bears will pretend to be harmless and stupid before attacking humans, and when people let down their guard, they will suddenly attack..."

The two of them started arguing after just a few words.

Wu Xian held the saw-blade knife horizontally to defend himself, and some hair also appeared on Xiong Gang's body. The two men were on the verge of a fight.

“Wow, I want to go home!”

The dangerous aura pierced the boy's already unstable mind, causing him to howl to the sky.

Xiong Gang wanted to comfort her, but he didn't know how.

Wu Xian saw all his actions and realized that Xiong Gang's vigilance towards him was accompanied by a hint of grievance. If all this was acting, then Xiong Gang's acting was amazing.

"Never forget, never forget..."

"If it was me yesterday, would I let things escalate to a fight with him?"

After a few deep breaths, Wu Xian's mind regained its calm. He had just been running in the dark for a while, and the curse of the fear of darkness should have taken effect, so his emotions were so irritable and unstable.

"Excuse me!"

Wu Xian raised his hand.

"Is there a monster in the pool of water in this little cave?"

Xiong Gang was stunned for a moment. The atmosphere was already so lively, why did they suddenly change the topic?
"No, I drank water there twice..."

Wu Xian walked towards the pool of water and plunged his head into it under Xiong Gang's surprised gaze. The cold water irritated Wu Xian's scalp, and the pain on his face eased a little. The blood stuck to his face also melted into the water.

With the help of the cold water, Wu Xian regained his composure.

"Xiong Gang is a monster summoned by Xia Caoqing's story."

This is confirmed information.

But thinking carefully about Xiong Gang's performance since his appearance, Wu Xian was surprised to find that this guy had many opportunities to kill people from beginning to end, but in the end no one died because of him.

Especially this chance encounter.

Xiong Gang's identity had been exposed, so there was no need for him to hide in front of Wu Xian. If he had attacked Wu Xian when he was most panicked, Wu Xian might have been killed directly.

The corpse of the evil spirit on the ground shows that Xiong Gang and the evil spirit in the darkness are hostile.

The boy hiding behind Xiong Gang can also slightly support Xiong Gang's position.

"For now... just treat him as a friend."

"what!"

Wu Xian snorted lightly, pulled his head out of the pool, shook his hair gracefully, and walked to Xiong Gang and sat down generously.

"Let's talk."

"Who wants to follow you..."

"Please talk to me."

Xiong Gang was still angry at first, but as the saying goes, you should not hit someone who smiles at you. Wu Xian was sincere and gentle, and even when he was rejected, he still asked for normal communication. His anger was gradually suppressed. In the many literary and artistic works that Wu Xian has read.

Many contradictions and conflicts all originate from misunderstandings, and the reason for misunderstandings is mostly that the parties involved are unwilling to speak human language.

Although it was somewhat embarrassing to humbly cater to Xiong Gang, it was a matter of life and death after all. Wu Xiancai did not want to force someone who might have been a friend to the enemy side because of a momentary quarrel.

Wu Xian lit the candle, extinguished the torch, and his communication with Xiong Gang gradually deepened.

The boy behind Xiong Gang also quieted down. Under the warm candlelight, he could finally get some sleep.

……

Xiong Gang explained why he hid his identity.

He said that although he was not a human, he had no intention of hurting anyone, and he hid his identity only because he did not want to be suspected by others. The reason why he was hostile to Wu Xian was because of the murderous expression on Wu Xian's face when he discovered that he was an evil spirit.

Wu Xian explained that it was his special ability and that he could only fight if he showed a ferocious expression. He demonstrated it to Xiong Gang on the spot.

Having said that, the conflicts from the last cave exploration are over.

Although Wu Xian was very humble, he did not completely believe Xiong Gang, so he asked Xiong Gang a question seriously.

"You really haven't killed anyone?"

According to Wu Xian's speculation, Xiong Gang was summoned by Xia Caoqing's story, so he must have attacked the campsite. If Xiong Gang said that he had never killed anyone, then his words would have to be discounted in Wu Xian's eyes.

Xiong Gang looked a little embarrassed and hesitated for a while.

"I have killed, and also..."

Xiong Gang pointed to his mouth and made a swallowing motion.

"I was born in a beautiful forest where campers often came to play. At that time, I was just a little bear. I could only secretly watch the campers but didn't dare to approach their camps."

"The campers are usually several men and one woman, and after camping, the men return to the human world, while the women's bodies are left in the forest."

"You should know what happens when a bear finds a carcass in the wild."

"As the campers came into the woods more and more, I found that I was getting smarter and stronger, far more than the bears themselves should have been."

"So I started attacking humans!"

"The human closest to me is the one who comes to camp in the forest every once in a while. I caught a man and ate everything about him. I gained the ability to transform into a human."

"If things go as they should, I will kill everyone there and will remain a monster that feeds on humans forever."

“Then, I heard the sound of chanting scriptures.”

Wu Xian raised his eyebrows: "Scripture?"

Xiong Gang nodded: "Yes, the scriptures. It seems that there is a red-robed god in the flames, preaching to me. Although I don't understand the meaning of the scriptures, just listening to the voice, my mood has become much calmer, and I no longer have the violent murderous intent before."

"So in the morning, I blended in with the campers and went down the mountain. I transformed myself into a child and blended into a human village."

Xiong Gang had never heard Xia Caoqing's story, but what he told was not much different from Xia Caoqing's story.

Therefore, Wu Xian concluded that Xiong Gang was not lying and he believed him 80% in his heart.

This guy was originally no different from other evil spirits, but after being converted by the Southern Three Qi Fire Star Lord, he turned over a new leaf and no longer committed murderous acts...

suddenly.

Wu Xian noticed the bug.

"Wait, when did you attack the campers?"

Xiong Gang was stunned for a moment: "About ten years ago, what happened?"

Wu Xian licked his lips.

This doesn't match Xia Caoqing's story!
