Chapter 757: The Netherland
Late at night, the moonlight is shining.
In a thatched field on the outskirts of Asan City, the ground is scorched with a faint glow of fire, which has not yet had time to regenerate its greenery in early spring.
There was a faint smell of burnt roasted meat in the air, and a disgusting stench like rotting pieces of meat lingered in the air.
A cold wind blew, and large patches of thatch swayed with the wind, making a rattling sound.
A tactical boot foot came into view, stomping out a flame that was spreading towards the thatch; Then the other foot followed, and he fell to the ground, standing still.
The gaze followed the feet and looked up, and finally landed on the face, which was a handsome and familiar face.
Ember glanced at the scene that seemed to have just ended the battle, and there was a faint white light in his eyes, as if it reflected the moonlight overhead.
Of course, the human eye does not glow, so this is a kind of Taoist technique, and after use, it can make people see things at night.
"Three, three, how's it going?" Although the scene was empty and did not seem to move, Ember still carefully half-crouched down, hiding behind the thatch, which was more than a person tall and had yellowed leaves.
"There's no situation on my side." In the headset, a female voice came.
"Four?"
"There's no situation on my side either." A calm male voice came.
"Me too." This voice is a female voice again, and it sounds relatively crisp.
"That seems to be the real end." Ember exhaled softly, clenched the dagger in his hand, and was about to get up, when suddenly, a black shadow pounced on him from the thatch in the upper right corner.
Ember eyes are quick and quick to react, the dagger in his hand is waved out with his backhand, and in the state of mana activation, the dagger emits a red light, and a talisman appears, and when it is waved, it produces the illusion of a red light dragging the line of sight.
The shadow attack was sudden, but Ember was also experienced and did not let his guard down because of the news from his companions.
After all, if you don't find the situation, it doesn't mean that there won't be a situation, they are not cultivators with high mana themselves, but similar to mercenaries, witches who collect money to catch ghosts, if the enemy has strong mana and superb Taoist skills, they can also hide themselves by using formations or magic weapons.
So when they carry out their tasks, they are careful and careful.
Now, the Shadow's sneak attack proves that caution is not wrong.
And Ember's clever reaction also made him not hurt, the dagger slashed directly from the black shadow, and while it was still in mid-air, it broke into two pieces and fell to the ground, emitting a scorching smell.
Ember was about to take a closer look at what was attacking him when a female voice suddenly came.
"What's the situation?"
He didn't look back to see who it was, because just by listening to the voice, he knew that it was Ling Zhiqing, who was numbered No. 3.
"I got attacked by this thing."
Ember used his dagger to flick the object on the ground that was broken in two, and it looked like a piece of meat - the meat section of the supermarket, the kind of one-size-fits-all pork, in the shape of a long strip, but no one should want this meat on the ground, because it is full of fat, and if you eat it, I am afraid that the calories will be out of the table.
Of course, more importantly, this long strip of fat will still move; Even if it has been broken in two.
So to put it simply, he was attacked by a piece of fat?
"Wow~~! It's disgusting! Ling Zhiqing was wearing a black tight-fitting dress at this time, with a talisman bag and other things hanging around her waist, her hair was coiled, simple and capable, and the whole person looked heroic.
"One, three, what's wrong?" At this time, the calm male voice that I heard before also came, and at the same time, while alerting the surroundings, he walked over.
However, he was not alone, and he was accompanied by a woman who was also wearing clothes that were easy to move around and her long hair was tangled.
The man is a strong man with a height of more than 1.8 meters, and in this cold weather, he is only wearing a vest and camouflage pants on the bottom.
His exposed muscles looked very strong, and he carried a copper knife in his hand; The spacious blade is engraved with intricate charms on both sides and filled with cinnabar, making it particularly effective against ghosts and demons.
And the woman who followed the man was also more than 1.7 meters tall, and even if she was wearing thick clothes, she couldn't hide her hot body.
She is also a big beauty, with a melon seed face, a cold complexion, and a flower in the center of her eyebrows, which is actually a charm when you look closely. Her weapon was a peachwood sword, and she had more rune paper and other items hanging from her waist than the other three, and she looked very professional.
The two of them came closer, and their eyes were glowing with a faint white light, and they could see in the dark. They only glanced at it, and then they didn't look too much, and turned to look out, vigilant.
"What the hell is this?" Number four, who is the strong man, asked.
"It looks like a lump of fat; The enemy of women. Did anyone cut it off from it? The seemingly indifferent woman made a joke in this situation.
"Well, it looks familiar." Ember looked at the fat that was still wriggling on the ground, and fell into deep thought.
"You've seen it before?" Ling Zhiqing was very relieved of the vigilance of the other two companions, and directly half-squatted down, picked up a dead branch from the ground, and kept poking it.
Ember didn't answer, but he quickly searched for the suspected existence of the object from his memory, and his face became serious, and his brows couldn't help but be tangled together.
"If I'm not mistaken, this must have been the work of a group of Thai sorcerers. I used to deal with it with Zhou Qingli, it was very difficult, and it could continue to multiply, and then it was the little sister who took action and solved it. ”
"However, later we found out that it didn't seem to be completely wiped out, and it still let its core escape, but after so long, it was gone, and now it has escaped again."
After Ember finished speaking, he recounted how he and Zhou Qingli dealt with the Thai sorcerer at the beginning, especially the scene of the battle with the growing fat body, which was described very clearly and carefully, and the No. 3 strong man and the No. 2 woman smacked their tongues.
On the contrary, after Ling Zhiqing heard it, she reacted immediately and exclaimed: "I seem to be on the scene that time!" ”
"You went too?" Hearing this, Ember was also a little surprised.
"Of course! That time, it was the little sister who said that she was kidnapped and asked me to save her, but I didn't hear the address clearly, and accidentally ran over, and then when I passed, the house was ruined. It turned out that you did it. Ling Zhiqing said.
"Hey, can we not reminisce here?" Seeing that the two of them seemed to be off-topic, No. 3 said with some dissatisfaction.
Hearing this, Ember shrugged his shoulders and said, "Okay! In short, if this fat meat is really that guy, it's a bit of a problem. ”
"Then we have to report it quickly." Number Two said.
"Don't rush yet. Let's search around again! Be careful if there is any residual fat body present. After Ember finished speaking, he took out a piece of rune paper from his waist and urged the mana, and the rune paper was ignited by the rootless fire, and after it was still on the fat body, it immediately burned the two lumps of meat into a pitch black, and it would never squirm again.
"Good!"
After the third responded, the four of them dispersed again, this time more cautious, after all, I don't know if there is any fat left at the scene.
The four of them searched all the way along the traces of the battle, exchanging information from time to time, and soon, several people regrouped, hiding on a high slope, looking through the thatch, not far away.
More than 100 meters away, there is a villa area, but in this big night, it is pitch black, at a glance, the unified house type is lined up in rows, hiding in the shadows, even under the moonlight, it looks like it is black.
"According to the information, this should be an abandoned villa area." Ling Zhiqing said about the information she found: "It was developed by a real estate developer in 2010, but then the capital chain was broken, the boss ran away, and no one took over, so it was abandoned here." Now, ten years have passed, and no one will come here. ”
"Lots of houses and remote location, it's really a good place to hide here." Number Two said.
"Do you think this place is gloomy?" Ember stared at it for a moment, then asked.
"That's right."
Ling Zhiqing said: "A big reason why this villa area is deserted is that it is said to be often haunted. Originally, there were still a few families living here, but it didn't take long for these families to die completely, so there were rumors that the land was haunted. ”
"Actually, before these families died, there were some evil sects in this place. According to eyewitness accounts, occasionally at night, a large amount of black smoke will rise from the area, enveloping the area. ”
"Is it like this?" Number Three suddenly spoke, attracting the attention of Ember and the others.
A few people looked up and couldn't help but gasp, only to see that at some point, a black gas began to rise on the ground of the villa area.
The black air shot up into the sky, enveloping all the villas in it, as if it had some kind of connection with the moon overhead.
A cold aura spread out to the surroundings, and even from more than a hundred meters away, Ember and the others couldn't help but shiver, feeling a cold aura seeping into their bodies through their clothes.
"Withdraw!" Ember immediately made a decision and immediately chose to retreat, and the four of them quickly left the place, and it was not until they retreated a hundred meters that they felt that there was no longer any yin qi invading their bodies.
"Heaven and earth are infinite, borrow the law to drive away evil spirits! Imperial order! No. 2 took out a piece of rune paper, and after reciting the spell, the rune paper spontaneously combusted without fire, and then turned into a flame that spread, and the four of them suddenly felt much warmer on their bodies.
"What's going on?" Three was a little surprised, and said, "What the hell is that place?" It's so rich in yin energy. ”
However, as soon as he had said this, he seemed to have something in mind.
The four of them looked at each other similarly, and they all saw the place that the other party guessed from each other's eyes, but is it really the place that everyone in Asan City is looking for?
