Tsing Yi frowned unconsciously, and she silently watched Wang Decai circle around her a few times, and then said: "I'm not a good person, and I don't have so many familiar monsters, I'm afraid you're asking for the wrong person." ”
"The little lady in Tsing Yi-" Wang Decai saw Tsing Yi's resignation, and he was sweating profusely for a while. He knew very well in his heart that looking at the entire inn, there was only one Tsing Yi who would save people, but now Tsing Yi also refused, he really couldn't think about it, "Little lady in Tsing Yi, I know that I am a strong man, but if you don't save him, he will definitely die!" ”
Kurosaburo on the side raised his eyebrows unhappily. These mortals are like this, knowing that Tsing Yi is not as ruthless as a monster, so they all came to beg her, and between the lines, they all brought out some restraints, which made Tsing Yi feel that he was wrong not to help.
"If you beg her, you might as well beg me." Hei Saburo looked at Wang Decai with a smile and said, "In the end, even if she agrees to you, she will ask me for help." ”
Wang Decai shuddered unconsciously, this little second brother looked kind, but his eyes were better than Lin Xuyan, which really made him panic.
Seeing that Wang Decai was so frightened that he was almost about to pee his pants, Tsing Yi had to reach out and take this hot potato: "You tell me what the situation is first, we have to identify the cause before we can prescribe the right medicine!" ”
The king was overjoyed, and hurriedly told them everything after they entered the locust forest. In particular, the dark shadow that appeared in the forest was described in great detail: "...... As soon as the night fell, a black shadow appeared above everyone's heads, and I saw that it was probably a monster that had made it. After Leader Lin was shrouded in that black shadow, the whole person was wrong, and he couldn't pass a cup of tea, he was like a fool, and he couldn't even speak. Originally, some of us were drunk by the smell of wine in the leaves of the locust tree, and when we were made by the black shadow, we all deformed and swelled into a ball. A few of us looked at the situation and tried to escape, but before we could get to the edge, they- they were all hit! ”
Wang Decai forgot what he said, and began to wipe his tears from his eyes: "Alas, if I had known this, I should have insisted that everyone not spend the night in that ghost forest." The locust tree is heavy and prone to strange things. Now it seems that it is not bad. At that time, there was a guy who couldn't run, and I pulled him slightly, and he exploded in front of my eyes. was originally a good person, but the blood and water were blown up, and there was not even a single corpse bone. I- I am so remorseful-"
Tsing Yi listened to Wang Decai beat his chest and said a lot of remorse, but in the end, he didn't hear much useful things.
The guests in the lobby are in the mood at this time, and there is no alcohol to drink these days, and everyone is bored. It's rare to see a good show, although many monsters have guessed the reason, but they didn't speak, just watched Wang Decai continue to sing with interest.
"Little lady, you're right, I didn't get hit because I had a talisman on me." Wang Decai wiped his eyes and continued, "Because only Leader Lin in the group seems to be somewhat saved, I gave him some points, but it doesn't seem to have much effect. What do we do now? ”
"What should I do?" Tsing Yi frowned and sighed, "What about your companion?" Let's call it first! ”
When Wang Decai heard this, he hurriedly turned around and pointed to the position in the corner of the lobby and said, "I let him sit there, and I'll go - what about people?" ”
The demons then turned their heads to see that the seat was empty, and there was still anyone there.
Wang Decai was so anxious that he was almost smoking, and he didn't care that all the monsters present were there, so he asked one by one so eagerly: "Big brother, have you seen a fat man?" He looked stupidly and clumsy, dressed in an iron-gray shirt with a weapon at his waist, about this tall—"
The guests who were questioned shook their heads with smiles to indicate that they didn't know, and seeing that the king was about to collapse in a hurry, a male demon said loudly: "That mortal went to the kitchen by himself, and you didn't give him food because he was hungry, so he had to be self-reliant—"
"Hahahaha-"
The monsters don't care about the life and death of mortals, and when they see this situation, they only know how to have fun.
Tsing Yi didn't feel anything before, but now he saw that the monsters in the hall were all joking about Wang Decai and the two, and he couldn't bear it for a while.
Everyone searched all the way, and as soon as they entered the kitchen, they saw that Lin Xuyan somehow opened the lid of the bucket of jade ice burning, and at this moment he was planting it head-down into the bucket.
Tsing Yi was so shocked that he immediately stopped there. Wang Decai was even more panicked and rushed towards Lin Xuyan.
But mortals have no supernatural powers, and when they are in danger, they are often beyond their strength. Wang Decai was desperate, and he couldn't hold Lin Xuyan in time.
Seeing that Lin Xuyan was about to be planted in the barrel, at the last moment, a strong wind swept past them.
Tsing Yi's eyes flickered, and then he saw Hei Saburo holding Lin Xuyan's back with one hand and holding him stiffly.
Lin Xuyan looked more and more chubby than when he first entered the door, and he was a little out of breath because he was grabbed by Hei Saburo's back placket. But Rao was so suffocated that his face turned red, but there was no pain on his face.
Wang Decai was afraid that Hei Saburo's subordinates would not pay attention, so he blew up Lin Xuyan. So he hurried over and took over.
As soon as Hei Saburo let go casually, Lin Xuyan's body fell to Wang Decai's body, almost not overpowering Wang Decai.
"He has a lot of alcohol on him, and if he doesn't think about it, he will turn into wine." Hei Saburo clapped his hands and said, "The locust forest you went to has a background. The owner of the forest is a monster wine brewer who makes a living from winemaking, and the locust forest is specially made by him to brew the locust ghost Chen. Locust trees, ghosts, and old wine are all indispensable. Your luck is really bad, and you have entered his woods. ”
"I don't know—" Wang Decai cried out unashamedly, "we didn't know it was a monster's forest—youkai-sama, please save him—"
"Shut up!" Hei Saburo was impatient to listen to Wang Decai's ghost crying wolf, and he stopped with a sinking face, "It's noisy!" If you howl again, get out of the inn. ”
Wang Decai was intimidated by Hei Saburo and didn't dare to speak again, and then Tsing Yi who came later spoke: "San Lang, why don't we go to Jiu Zaozi to deal with this matter?" He was the one who cast spells, and he knew how to undo spells. ”
"The wine brewer is obsessed with wine, and it is almost impossible for him to destroy the wine he brews." Hei Saburo shook his head and said, "That old thing has a bad temper, if we provoke him, the wine we ordered may be gone." ”
"So—what else do you do?" Tsing Yi naturally wouldn't take risks for an irrelevant person, but looking at Lin Xuyan's appearance, he felt a little embarrassed, "This person doesn't look like he can last long." Even I can smell the wine. ”
"What's the way!" Hei Saburo suddenly showed a meaningful smile, he glanced at the back door, and then came up with an idea in a moment, "Dongqiao is your brother's servant and knows how to make wine, so I think there is a way to save this person." Why don't we try him first? ”
Tsing Yi naturally agreed, and really went to call Dongqiao.
Dongqiao ordered to inspect Lin Xuyan, and then lowered his hand to Tsing Yi and said, "Little lady, he was used as a wine barrel by monsters to make wine." Some yokai like to eat people, and several of the sake brewed are made specifically for those youkai, and the ingredients are mostly aged sake plus mortal flesh and soul. Among them, there is a kind of wine that is the most famous, called Huai Gui Chen. The brewer planted the locust tree, which had the heaviest yin energy, on the veins filled with aged wine, and then got some living creatures to make a tonic for them. The locust tree has become a spirit over the years, and its branches, leaves, rhizomes are the mother of wine. If a mortal stumbles into the locust grove by mistake, it will be used by the locust tree spirit to make wine. Mortals who are used as barrels to make wine will be stripped of their flesh and bones in less than a day, and only a human skin will wrap the wine. They can even walk before the yokai drink, so that the wine in their skins does not rot. When youkai drink, all they have to do is suck the drink out of it mouth-to-mouth. ”
“…… It's disgusting. Tsing Yi was sick to his stomach by Dongqiao's words, and couldn't help muttering, "How can any monster like such wine?" ”
"As far as I know, the vampire vine demon is the great patron of Huai Ghost Chen." Dongqiao actually added with a blank look, "They live on the blood of living creatures, and mortals are even more rare and great supplements for them." It's just a pity that they can only suck blood, and it is inevitable that they will waste it when eating. As a result, blood wine like Huai Ghost Chen became their favorite food. ”
Tsing Yi looked at Dongqiao with a different expression, and sighed half-loudly: "I already know the reason, now do you have a way to save this person?" ”
Dongqiao nodded respectfully and replied, "Yes." In fact, the solution is very simple. Because this person's bones have not yet melted, he only needs to soak him in flowing water, and it will only take half a day to recover. ”
"What about the bones? Is there salvation too? Tsing Yi asked casually.
"There is salvation too." Dongqiao replied truthfully, but before Tsing Yi could breathe a sigh of relief, he turned his head and said something a little scary, "But the people who are saved like that can only survive for a long time, and the bones that have been melted cannot be turned back, and their sanity is also different from ordinary people." ”
To put it bluntly, it is a lump of meat, unable to eat or walk, and lives until it dies. The more Tsing Yi thought about it, the more terrifying he felt.
"There is no flowing river around the inn today." Hei Saburo looked at Dongqiao Road with a smile, "But the inn's well has endless water, so it seems that it can only keep fetching water and pouring it into the bucket." ”
"That's fine." Tsing Yi nodded first, but then shook his head and said, "But this is too tiring, and I'm afraid Dongqiao can't be busy alone." ”
Saying that, she stared firmly into Wang Decai's eyes and said, "Since you want to save your companions, then the matter of fetching water should be entrusted to you." There's no objection to this, right? ”
"No, no!" Wang Decai dared to say no, so he could only nod desperately, "Of course you want me to do it." But...... I'm afraid I'm not thorough alone, so I still have to bother this little brother to help me......"
"Yes." Hei Saburo not only agreed, but even took the initiative to give them a boost, "I'll move another guy for you, but she is only responsible for protecting you." Beasts come and go at night, and every monster is around, and you are afraid that you will not be able to see the sun of Ming'er. Now drag this fat man to soak in the water, don't rely on us for not making a move. ”。
