Chapter 17: The Corpse Refiner
In the middle of the night, the two got up and went out on their own, and the sound of the soul-attracting bell sounded again in the forest, and they gradually drifted away.
As soon as Song Ling exhaled, his fingertips held out an ear ladybug, the ear ladybug is very small, no different from the general ladybug, there is a crescent moon pattern on the back, the male and female are together, the pattern can be combined into a circle, when the male and female are separated, the male insect can transmit the sound to the female worm.
This pair of ear ladybugs was asked to play with Senior Brother Jiang Hao before, and now she has only a female worm in her hand, and the male worm has gone out with the two of them, and is hiding in the hair of a dead corpse at the moment.
As soon as Song Ling urged his spiritual power, the voices of the two men came along with the soul-attracting bell.
"Big brother, those two dolls in Yizhuang look very good, they look like they are the best choice for Horcruxes, why don't you catch them?"
"If two ordinary little dolls, can they spend the night in Yizhuang in the middle of the night? Hmph, their breath is pure, and they are indeed the best choice for Horcruxes, but the cultivation of that male doll is not clear to me, and now there is something serious to do, don't make side dishes!"
"When the slaughter of Baizhai comes out, big brother, you will accompany me to find these two dolls, one for each of us, and the cultivation will definitely be improved." ”
"Look at your gluttony, let's finish this errand first. ”
The two were in a hurry to leave, and they didn't say anything more. Song Lingyi put away the female worm and asked Xie Qiong what a Horcrux was.
"They shouldn't be corpse keepers, but corpse refiners. The corpse refiner uses the Horcrux as the peak to refine the corpse, and the cultivation path is extremely evil, so the evil qi around him is strong just now. ”
"Since they're going to arrest us anyway, let's follow them first and see what bad things they are going to do! Song Ling rubbed his hands and waited for Xie Qiong to nod.
This trip was also for the sake of training, and the time to take medicine was still relaxed, Xie Qiong raised his eyebrows, thinking that since he had been remembered, it was better to take the initiative: "Those two said that they were going to slaughter the village, let's follow up first, and act at the opportunity." ”
So, Song Ling and the others dropped the carriage and chased after them along the induction between the ear ladybugs.
The two corpse refiners were very fast, and soon turned onto a forest path, followed by three or four dead corpses in cloaks, their movements stagnating slightly, but they were not half a point behind.
At dawn, looking down from the mountain road, you can finally see the white village entrenched in the valley, living by the water, and a quiet and peaceful place in the morning light.
Song Lingyi and Xie Qiong, who followed far behind, were hidden in the mountains and forests, and the voices of some birds and beasts were used as cover, and they were never noticed.
When he was about to get close to Baizhai, the corpse refiner went directly to the back of the village.
Xie Qiong took Song Lingyi and went directly to the door of the village.
"Little brother, what should we do now? They came out from behind the stockade, and we were afraid that we would not have time to tell the people in the stockade. Song Lingyi said worriedly.
Xie Qiong pulled her to protect her with one hand, and pinched a fire trick directly towards the gate of the village with the other hand: "This will be soon." ”
The gate is made of pure wood, and it will soon burn when it encounters a spiritual fire, and the fire is not small.
Song Lingyi was hidden behind Xie Qiong, and saw more than a dozen men with spears or big knives running out, all wearing very distinctive national costumes, but their appearance was not similar to the locals who opened teahouses on the side of the official road, and they were not holding long and curved Miao knives in their hands.
"Who are you?" they asked as they fetched water to extinguish the fire, as they shouted through the burning gate.
Xie Qiong's fire was not easy to extinguish, the entire gate of the village was burned into a ball almost instantly, but the fire did not spread, and more and more people in the village gathered to look at the two of them through the firelight.
The tall and sturdy owner of the white village squeezed through the crowd and came to the front, seeing Xie Qiong waving his hand to extinguish the fire, he scolded: "Ge Laozi, where did the two little dolls come from to burn my gate, hurry up and tie them up for me!"
When a few men with spears heard this, they came forward to fetch people, and were stepping through the black ash burned by the gate of the village, when they heard a cry for help from behind the village: "Help! The ghost is coming! The dead are killing!"
Fortunately, most of the people in the village had already gathered at the door, and when they heard the cries for help, everyone didn't care about Song Ling and the others, and turned around collectively, and saw that two corpse refiners had come behind them, and four murderous corpses were standing behind them, with pale faces and rotting torsos stained with blood.
The triangular-eyed corpse refiner laughed and said, "I said who is doing the bad things about our brothers, it turns out that these two little dolls are meddling!"
The tall and thin man rubbed his hands: "I originally wanted to let them go first, but since they got together, it would be better to do two things together!"
At this time, most of the people in the village also understood that the fire that had just burned the gate of the village gathered most of the people as quickly as possible in order to save their lives. Before he had time to think about it, the four murderous corpses had already rushed up with black air.
"Where did these two ugly bastards get their two garlic sticks? ”
The lord of the white village roared angrily, and he took two sledgehammers to take the lead, and one hammer hit the head of a murderous corpse that rushed up, and his skull of the hammer was immediately broken and half fell to the ground, but he quickly got up from the ground and continued to rush up without hindrance.
The men with spears lined up to protect a few people with knives rushed forward, although the murderous corpse was not afraid of injury or pain, and was extremely powerful, but it was still poked by the knife and gun formation.
"Little brother, they are so powerful, they don't seem to need our help. Song Lingyi took advantage of the chaos to find a stone and stand up to watch the battle, Xie Qiong stood in front of her, borrowing her shoulder to support her to maintain balance.
"This is the formation of marching and fighting, and this stockade is not simple. Xie Qiong whispered.
The battle situation was scorching for a while, and the white village lord's sledgehammer was vigorous, but it still couldn't cause substantial damage to the murderous corpse, so it was only a matter of time before the murderous corpse scratched his head.
The two corpse refiners seemed to be a little dissatisfied with the movements of the murderous corpse, and their outstretched hands were filled with black gas, urging them again. Seeing that the speed of the murderous corpse was faster, the strength of the attack was even more terrifying, and the spear was half broken when it rushed up again.
The master of the white village hammered one by one, knocked the two approaching murderous corpses out again, and scolded and said: "This disgusting stupid thing, bring fire for Lao Tzu and burn them!"
"Fear of fire is useless. Xie Qiong took Song Lingyi and interjected a sentence behind the crowd, stopping the person who was about to get a torch.
"Young man, don't talk so much nonsense at a young age, hurry up and help Lao Tzu burn them, Lao Tzu will be grateful!"
The lord of the white village waved his hand to let the crowd make way for them, Xie Qiong and Song Lingyi quickly stepped forward, and drew the hunting knife without saying a word. He took the lead and stood at the front, slashing horizontally, and the knife rushed away as if it was carrying flames, and quickly wrapped around the body of the murderous corpse.
The corpses let out a low roar and retreated in pain, and when the corpse refiner saw this, he bit the tip of his tongue and spewed out, causing the black gas to soar again.
