Chapter 21: I can't find a laugh
"You know?"
Mu Kui looked at the faces of Boro and Qingxi strangely, he had never seen these two people at all.
"He doesn't know us, we know him. We also saw him in Qishan a few nights ago. Boro looked at Mu Kui and said, "You're the one who hunts birds!"
"Bird hunting?" Mu Kui himself was also a little confused, but after thinking about it, he looked at them with a shocked gaze, "You killed Captain Jiushui!"
President Tang looked at them inexplicably, it couldn't be such a coincidence.
"It was Lu Bu who did it, and we were also deceived by him. Borro explained.
"Continental, Continental...... It turned out that what I saw that night was not an illusion. Captain Jiushui and everyone all died because of me" Mu Kui's eyes were blank, staring blankly at the lake in front of him.
"I want you to retell the events of that night. President Tang walked over to him and tapped him on the shoulder.
"That night......" Mu Kui was very reluctant to recall the situation of that night. Although he had escaped earlier than anyone else, he had glanced back as he fled, and the sight was etched into his mind like a brand.
Whenever he wanted to recall, that bloodstained face would appear in front of his eyes. Jiushui's withered fingers stained with blood will firmly lock his shoulders. Although when I came to my senses, I knew that it was all fake, but fear would inexplicably come up.
It was born out of the fear of death.
"I just wanted to make more money...... Mu Kui began to recount what happened to him at that time, and under the repeated questioning of the president, he accurately recounted the details of his memories to every quarter of an hour, even including his own thoughts at the time.
"When I realized that something was wrong and rushed into the captain's battalion commander, I saw Captain Jiushui lying in a pool of blood. Mu Kui's body began to tremble again.
It seems that in his eyes, he can see what Jiushui looked like at that time.
"His heart was pierced by a sharp weapon, and the blood kept gushing out, and I was going to chase the murderer. But ......"
"But?"
Mu Kui's throat rolled slightly, "He suddenly grabbed my arm!" and stared at me in horror, I thought he didn't want to die and wanted me to save him, but I was also scared at the time. That was the first time I saw a dead man. ”
Everyone didn't speak, and Aunt Lan came over with a lunch box, "It's time for lunch." ”
Boro and the others glared at Aunt Lan angrily, obviously it was the climax part!
"If you don't eat it, the food will be cold. ”
Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, she was not angry. turned around and left indifferently.
Mu Kui also took this opportunity to breathe a sigh of relief, and at this time his back was already soaked in cold sweat. It's cold all over my body. It was as if I was back in that tent.
"Running !!" Jiushui trembled and roared at him with the arm that held Mu Kui's shoulder. The blood in his mouth even squirted onto his own face.
"I don't know what the captain was afraid of, but I subconsciously rushed out. No matter who called me along the way, I didn't dare to stop. It wasn't until I escaped from the walled city that I turned my head to take a look. ”
Mu Kui looked up at the empty space behind Boro.
Curious, Boro also turned his head to look behind him. There was nothing there, but why did I feel a cold air inexplicably?
President Tang also looked at it, frowning deeply. "Ghost marks?"
Through the blank void, Mu Kui seemed to see Jiushui who was wandering in the gloomy bushes at this time, at this time, the original bright red on his body had turned into jet black, and his eyes still maintained that frightened look.
Jiushui (Blood Demon) turned his head, and he was also looking at Mu Kui. Slowly stepped out of his mutilated hand......
"Running !!" A roar erupted from the depths of his soul.
Mu Kui woke up suddenly, breathing quickly and strangely, like a person who had been drowning for a long time and was suddenly thrown to the shore.
He was cold, and every muscle in his body was trembling and moaning.
Qingxi was so frightened by his state that he hurriedly hugged Boro beside him, "He! what's wrong with him!"
President Tang calmly opened the lunch box, took out a piece of cucumber from a side dish, and stuck it to Mu Kui's forehead.
"He's got a ghost mark. It seems that the one in Qishan is indeed the Blood Demon, yes. ”
After doing this, President Tang had no other actions. "He'll have to keep it up for a while, and we'll eat first. ”
"I can't eat it......" Qingxi felt scared just by looking at it, and he didn't have any appetite at all.
"Uncle, why did you put the cucumber on his head?" Boro wondered, did this help him?
"Not why. Chairman Tang smiled and said, "There is only one way for those who have fallen into the ghost mark to solve it, and that is to exorcise demons, that is, to remove blood demons." ”
"Then why are you doing this?"
The old man smiled faintly and said, "Because I want to do this." ”
"......" the three were speechless.
When they had almost eaten, Mu Kui gradually woke up.
The cucumber above his head slid down his cheek and fell to the ground with a clatter. Looking at the cucumber slices on the ground, Mu Kui was slightly stunned.
Old Man Tang and Boro laughed inexplicably on the side.
Qingxi and Song Zhi looked confused, where is the laugh?
"What just me?" Mu Kui's memory was a little vague, and he looked at the two laughing inexplicably.
"You've been struck by a ghost. Chairman Tang explained, "Did you see the Blood Demon just now?"
"See. Even now, when he thinks about it, Mu Kui still shudders.
"He's still in Qishan?"
"All I saw was him ...... among a dark bush"
"How many blood demons are there around him?"
"Ten," Mu Kui replied. "Nine of them were my teammates at the time. ”
"And what about the other one?" Without waiting for President Tang to ask, Boro asked eagerly.
"There was a strange face I hadn't seen before. ”
"Strange face......" Bourro began to wonder if that person could be Yan Zhu.
"Now it has been determined that the Blood Demon is hiding in Qishan. I'll be sending assistance to the other two cities for this search mission. This time, the Blood Demon must be completely destroyed. ”
"You have to come with us on this operation. ”
"I don't! I don't want to go back to that place again!" Mu Kui shook his head frequently, he didn't want to see something like that frightening again.
"If you don't confront the Blood Demon yourself, the ghost marks on your body will never disappear. Even if we destroy the Bloodseeker this time, he will still be able to grow in your mind. until you take your consciousness for yourself. ”
Boro looked at the old man strangely, didn't he just say that as long as the blood demon was destroyed, the ghost mark would disappear by itself?
"I ...... I ...... "Mu Kui naturally doesn't want to turn into a blood demon in a good manner. In the end, I had no choice but to compromise "I'll go ......"
The old man nodded with satisfaction, "You eat first, and I will instruct Uncle Huang to send you to us in a while." ”
