Chapter 16: The Corpse
Walking into the small village, the smell of corpse decay came to the face, and the faces of the villagers who walked out of the house gathered black gas, and a few of them looked at their faces if they did not rescue them, and they would be powerless to return to the sky in a few days.
Yun Yue frowned as he walked, his fingertips condensed into dew, and suddenly with a flick of force, the water droplets with aura broke in mid-air, turning into water mist and spreading in all directions.
A woman was holding a baby in her arms, and the child's face turned red and she cried out, and the woman rushed to pat him on the back, shaking her body gently to try to calm him down.
"It's good to cry out. Yun Yue passed by at the center of the child's eyebrows, and the cry became louder, but the baby's face gradually became ruddy.
"This. The woman looked at the village chief.
The old man scolded with a tiger face, "Why are you standing stupidly, don't you thank the immortals." ”
The woman hurriedly bowed, wiped her tears and said, "Thank you, thank you, immortal." ”
Suddenly, everyone who had children in their own homes rushed up.
"This. Yun Yue said helplessly to the old man, "Treat the symptoms but not the root cause, you better take me to the Tao to watch first." ”
Only then did the village chief react and slapped his thigh, "Yes, look at my brain, everyone is scattered, let the immortals get rid of the demon first." He just wanted Yun Yue to save a few people, completely forgetting that the source had not been solved.
The people in the village got out of the way with a shout from the village chief, and those who didn't let were also pulled away by the strong man, and the group walked to the Taoist temple in the village.
"Senior brother, look at that!" Xian Meng pointed to the tree at the entrance of the Taoist temple, where a corpse was hanging, facing them, with eyes and tongue protruding, looking like a hanged ghost.
"That's the Dao Chief?" Gu Yuanbai remembered what the person who asked to go up the mountain gate had said, and then looked at the clothes of the people on the tree, and had a plan in his heart, "Didn't anyone put him down?"
The village chief said with a frightened face, "It's useless, let's put him down and bury him, he will still appear here the next day, if you take the fire, it will inexplicably blow a strong wind to extinguish the fire." Once I had people watch from the cemetery, and I saw him crawl out of the dirt in the middle of the night, and after that, no one dared to touch him. ”
"Pretending to be a ghost. Gu Yuanbai drew his sword and slashed into the void, and the person on the tree turned his head in a different place, and only one head was still hanging from the tree.
"Ahh
Yun Yue's eyes froze, "Stone man, no, it's a wooden man?"
The head of the Taoist was separated, but there was no imaginary blood splashing, and there were only traces like wooden wheels and stone patterns at the cutting place, and I don't know what the cause was.
"This, how can this be?" said the middle-aged man who came with the village chief in surprise, "Isn't the Taoist chief a human?" "How is it possible, they have been together for more than ten years, and when they think of talking and laughing on weekdays, they suddenly feel a chill down their spine.
Yun Yue shook his head, "You guys go back first, staying here won't help much, don't become a drag." ”
These words were said directly, but the village chief and the strong man were not a little dissatisfied, but they were faintly grateful in their hearts, and they hated to retreat immediately, "Then we will wait for the good news of your immortals in the open space." ”
In front of the Taoist temple, only the three immortals were left, and the wind was blowing, and the sky was very gloomy.
"Let's go meet the monster. "Yunyue Road.
Xian Meng followed closely, observed around, and then moved in his heart. Something seemed to be attracting her.
Entering the Taoist gate, there is an open space where the incense burner is placed, and then the main hall is inside.
In the center of the hall, an unknown offering statue was cut off by half of its head, and a jade-colored object was placed in front of the statue.
Xian Meng's gaze fell on the jade-colored object, and she faintly felt that this thing was attracting her.
Suddenly, a dark shadow flashed behind the three of them.
Gu Yuanbai seemed to sense something, and stabbed out with a backhand sword, and with a "clang", the sound of gold and iron resonating sounded.
Xian Meng took a few steps back with his intuition, and saw clearly that it was also a person who attacked them, also wearing a Taoist robe, but it was a little different from the corpse at the door, and he couldn't help but think of the god stick that the people in the village had said.
"Weak. Gu Yuanbai cherished the words like gold, and raised his sword to meet him.
Yun Yue and Xian Meng walked in front of Shi Mu, the culprit.
"Senior brother, is there something carved on it?" Xian Meng felt the desire in her heart getting stronger and stronger, and couldn't help but want to reach out and touch it.
Yun Yue took a step ahead of her, wrapping the stone and wood with condensation, "It seems to be a spell mark." "I think it may have been something sealed in here, and the stonemason carved it and destroyed the spell, so that the contents escaped." ”
As the words fell, the stone and wood wrapped in condensation shook violently, and the attack of the corpse of the divine stick that fought against Gu Yuanbai also became ferocious.
Xian Meng stepped back. Yun Yue tried his best to control the condensation, but the stone and wood shook more and more, and finally broke free from the shackles and was about to fly outside.
"Yuanbai stop it!" Yun Yue shouted. This kind of monster absorbs the essence and blood of people and grows, and in a short period of time, from the fourth layer of the Qi refining period he thinks to the sixth layer, if it is allowed to escape, it will definitely harm one side again.
Gu Yuanbai's eyes swept away, and he used the Ethereal Sword Realm, slashing the corpse of the Divine Stick away, and then quickly turned around and blocked Shi Mu's way.
"Senior brother, in the back!" Xian Meng shouted.
Gu Yuanbai couldn't dodge, and there was a scratch on his shoulder, and what appeared this time was actually the corpse of the Dao Leader who had been dismembered at the door.
"I'm running away again. Yun Yue was dragged by the corpse of the divine stick, and Gu Yuanbai had no time to separate, so Xian Meng had no choice but to bite the bullet and go on his own.
Her sword was a wooden sword for practice, and it was really pitiful to fight. The key is that Shi Mu himself is not small, and he only knocked her to pieces.
Xian Meng's heart was horizontal, and he simply threw away the wooden sword, sacrificed the purple smoke of the Dan furnace character, and put the stone wood in.
"Small. Xian Meng recited the mantra, but Shi Mu struggled too violently, making her mantra invalid for the first time. And the corpse of the Taoist chief and the corpse of the god stick sensed that Shi Mu was imprisoned, and they gave up their attacks and rushed straight to this side.
"Xian Meng run!" Yun Yue looked anxious, he was very sure of what he was sure of before he came, but he didn't expect that it was Xian Meng's help in the end.
But it's too late! The two corpses that can compete with Gu Yuan Baiyunyue can't be run by Xianmeng's little short legs.
Just at the last moment, Xian Meng felt the Dan furnace under control light, and then her body fell down as if she had been drained of all her strength.
Behind her, the movement of the two corpses came to an abrupt halt, like a puppet breaking the thread that tugged at it. The purple smoke kept getting smaller and smaller, and landed beside Xian Meng.
"Xianmeng!" Gu Yuanbai and Yun Yue glanced at each other, and flew towards the unconscious person on the ground.
