Xiangxi Shadow Chapter 15 The white-haired monster rises to the corpse

"It's here to ask for something!" I said as I looked at the seven people behind me who were waiting for them with all kinds of guys.

"Will it come and ask for us?" Xiang Wei asked rhetorically.

"Qiu Yan, it has no malice, let's return the worthless things to it, maybe it will leave by itself!" I ignored Xiang Wei and said to Qiu Yan.

Qiu Yan looked at me very firmly and asked:

"And what if what it wants is valuable?"

As soon as Qiu Yan's words fell, there was another loud noise outside, and this time, the door seemed to be smashed, and I heard the sound of wood breaking.

"Qiu Yan," I walked up to Qiu Yan and stared at her, "I know there are a lot of us, and that white-haired monster may not be able to take care of us, but I don't want anyone to get hurt, and don't forget, no matter what, we still have to go through that forest." ”

Qiu Yan thought for a while, then nodded, and when I saw this, I quickly ordered Long Quan to take someone to watch the white-haired monster carefully, but it really didn't work, so I would tear down a few doors to block the stones.

Then Qiu Yan and I, as well as Xiang Wei, walked over to the mule and horse, untied the baggage on it, and began to check the contents inside.

I didn't expect that as soon as I opened the baggage, a foul smell came to my face, and I remembered that these things were all brought from the white-haired monster's nest, and there must be mixed with the white-haired monster's feces, but we were all wearing masks before, so we didn't smell it.

We rummaged for a while, and found that the copper and silver utensils we collected were useless, of course, these things are hundreds of years old, and if you take them out, they can be sold for a good price, but there are no clues in these things, at most we can only tell us that these things come from ethnic minority families hundreds of years ago based on their appearance.

There was still the sound of slamming the door and the screams of the crowd outside, I handed those tools to Xiang Wei and asked him to throw them out, I thought to myself that maybe the white-haired monster wanted these things, isn't there a lot of stories about rare beasts guarding priceless treasures?

After Xiang Wei left, Qiu Yan and I rummaged through the weeds and bedding for a while, and we were worried that something was missing.

Who knew that as I flipped through it, I pulled out a crumpled book from a cloud of weeds, it was obviously a very old book, the paper was almost powdered, and there were some dark yellow water stains on it, I guess it was mostly the urine of the white-haired monster.

Qiu Yan carefully took the book from my hand, then found a plastic bag to wrap it, and said:

"This could be what we're looking for."

I nodded, agreeing with Qiu Yan's opinion.

After that, we couldn't find anything of value, and by this time there was no slamming on the door outside, and I thought my plan had succeeded.

Who knew that when I walked out of the mule and horse house, I saw several people standing in the doorway, and they were throwing out the bronze and silver utensils one by one, and there were bursts of laughter from time to time.

I didn't know why, but when I walked over and looked, I saw the white-haired monster jumping up and down the hillside in front of the house, and throwing something at me from time to time.

I stood at the door and watched for a while, and finally understood that these people were holding those utensils and throwing them here for a while, and then throwing them over there to play with the white-haired monster, and after the white-haired monster picked up those things, he seemed to find that they didn't want them, so they threw them back again.

This should have been a frightening scene, but these people made it into a child's play, and even made me think that I was wrong, thinking that this white-haired monster would not pose a threat to us at all.

I saw that the white-haired monster was not a threat, but it was not a way to keep jumping in front of the door, and I thought to myself that maybe it was just trying to go back to its nest, so I went back to the mule and horse house to get the weeds and bedding out.

At this time, Old Man Peng also walked in, he stood aside and watched me clean up the weeds all over the ground, and asked:

"You're going to let them make a fuss like this?"

Without looking back, I put the weeds and cotton wool together with the stench, and replied:

"Where can I be, don't I just want to give it its nest back!"

Old man Peng sighed behind my back, and then said:

"He boy, I can tell you, this mandrill is no better than a beast, and if it doesn't attack us, it proves that it is not angry because it destroyed its nest, it wants to get it back."

I smiled and said:

"I see, isn't that just going to give it back?"

Old man Peng shook his head and said:

"It's not that simple, He boy, tell me honestly, did you take anything valuable?"

I stood up and was about to refute when I felt a sticky thing on my hands, and my intuition told me that it was the feces of the white-haired monster, and I couldn't help but retch and wanted to shake it off.

Who knew that as soon as I flicked my wrist, the thing immediately fell off and hit the ground with a soft thud.

I was stunned for a moment, then bent down to look, only to see a green glass-like stone wrapped in the brown earthy thing.

I don't know what kind of stone it is, but it looks like it's worth a lot, maybe a jade or jadeite.

Old man Peng pointed to the stone and said to me:

"That's probably it."

I understand that Old Man Peng meant that it was this stone that the white-haired monster wanted.

I took a tissue from my pocket and picked up the stone, and just as I was about to walk out, there was a scream outside.

Old man Peng and I hurriedly ran out, and saw Liang Wenzheng holding his head and being helped into the house by Long Quan and Xiang Wei, and blood was bubbling in his fingers covering his head.

I asked what happened, but no one answered me, Qiu Yan hurriedly ran to the place where the luggage was stacked, it should be looking for a first-aid kit, and Xu Jinshan scolded and walked towards the luggage, I don't know what he wants to do.

At this time, only Erwa was still standing at the door, and he was shouting outside at the top of his voice:

"Hurry up, the things are given to you and you don't leave, you go quickly."

Before I could figure out what was going on, I saw Xu Jinshan speeding past me, he didn't know what he was holding in his hand, and he rushed to the door scolding his mother all the way.

At this time, Qiu Yan stood up, she looked at the door with surprise, and shouted:

"Xu Jinshan, what are you doing?"

Xu Jinshan turned to the side and replied:

"Slaughter the dog. Mother-raised! ”

Only then did I see that Xu Jinshan was holding a crossbow in his hand, and the crossbow had already been wound and set up with arrows, just waiting to be fired.

"Wait!" Qiu Yan and I said in unison.

But it was too late, Xu Jinshan turned around angrily and aimed and shot, ignoring me and Qiu Yan at all.

With the second baby's exclamation, Xu Jinshan laughed, needless to say, he hit with one blow.

Qiu Yan didn't have time to pay attention to this, she squatted down again and helped Liang Wen treat his wounds, while I ran outside the door, snatched the crossbow from Xu Jinshan's hand, and said angrily:

"The next time your boss tells you to wait, you'd wait!"

After saying that, I ran with Erwa to the white-haired monster lying on the ground, and Erwa's three hunting dogs also followed.

I have to say that Xu Jinshan's arrow was very accurate, hitting the chest of the white-haired monster, I originally thought that the white-haired monster would struggle for a while, but I didn't expect it to run out of breath when it ran over.

I leaned over to examine the wound, but found that there was not a trace of blood coming out of the place where the bolt was inserted, and not only that, but my hand on the white-haired monster did not feel any temperature, as if the white-haired monster had been dead for a long time.

I took out the stone from the tissue, and when the second baby saw it, she asked me what it was.

I smiled bitterly and said:

"It's its thing, I guess it just wants to get this stone back."

I was on my knees about to mourn or mourn or something, but at that moment the three hounds, who had not barked much, barked wildly at the corpse of the white-haired monster, and they bared their teeth and barked backwards, as if they had encountered something terrible.

The second baby kept comforting the dogs, and suddenly pointed at the white-haired monster and shouted:

"Brother Zimu, it~~ It's awake!"

I stood up and looked, and sure enough, the white-haired monster opened its eyes, but these eyes were not what I had seen before, their pupils were dilated, and their eyeballs were bloodshot, this scene reminded me of the corpse in my grandmother's story.

"Run!" I didn't have time to react, so I subconsciously pointed in the direction of the house and shouted at Erwa.

After the second baby ran away with the dogs, I glanced back at the white-haired monster, and the white-haired monster moved his hands and feet, and then sat up suddenly.

Shocked, I threw the stone in my hand at the white-haired monster, then turned and ran.

I didn't dare to look back all the way, and I didn't stop until I ran into the house, and after Erwa and Xu Jinshan waited for me to enter the house, they closed the wooden door with a "bang".

Xu Jinshan apparently witnessed what had happened, and after closing the door, he explained to everyone what was going on, and he told me that the white-haired monster jumped up the tree after I ran away, and now he is gone.

But what Xu Jinshan said was a superficial phenomenon, he just thought that the white-haired monster had not been killed, and Erwa and I just happened to see it get up again.

Qiu Yan looked at me while listening to Xu Jinshan's explanation, and she read from my expression that things were not so simple, so she walked over to me and asked:

"Zimu, what the hell is going on?"

I was shocked, looked at Qiu Yan and said softly:

"Raise the corpse!"

My voice was small, but the words I uttered carried a lot of weight, and everyone looked at me with shocked and confused expressions.

"Corpse? Who raises the body? Qiu Yan didn't seem to believe it.

"The white-haired monster has a corpse, and its eyes are exactly the same as my grandmother said." My voice trembled, but I didn't care.

"Can animals be raised from corpses?" Xiang Wei stood up at this time and asked me.

The few people present, I'm afraid that except for me and Qiu Yan and Xiang Wei, no one has ever seen a corpse, and even like Erwa, I'm afraid they haven't even heard of the word corpse, so the only one who can ask questions after being shocked can only be Xiang Wei and Qiu Yan.

"I don't know, but those eyes can't be wrong." I replied.

"Didn't you say that a corpse can't move as freely as a living person? Then why did Xu Jinshan say that the white-haired monster jumped up the tree? Qiu Yan continued to ask.

I shook my head and replied helplessly:

"I read all those words from the codex, and I only said them to fool your uncle, but I don't know what it is!"
