Chapter 166: Fighting Corpses 1
The woman nodded and said, "Okay, I, Huo Qingyi, will give the Rebel Witch Village a face today." Literature Fans . Let him collect the firecracker, and we'll go at once. ”
Wu Huan said: "In order to show sincerity, we can naturally let go first." You'd better not do anything, though. Otherwise, even if we chase you to the edge of the sky, we will also destroy your entire clan. ”
Tsing Yi said coldly: "Although I am a woman, I have always been true to my word, and I will not do those things that go back on my word." ”
Wu Huan nodded to Lao Qian, who put away the firecracker, and Huo Qingyi also let go of Mei Xin'er. Tsing Yi really pulled up Wen Wan and turned around and left without saying a word, without even explaining a word.
Lao Qian comforted Mei Xin'er while looking at Tsing Yi's distant back and muttered, "Why do I think these two people are weird? ”
Wu Huan smiled: "If you are not at ease, we can catch up and take a look, our people just now did something to them." ”
"It's good!" Lao Qian and the others unfolded their bodies and fell far behind Tsing Yi, and after walking for nearly an hour, they saw Tsing Yi burrowing into a crack in the mountain wall.
The crack that looks like a line of sky, wide and narrow, can only accommodate one person to pass through, plus there are wizards guarding outside, if you want to sneak in silently, you can't do it at all.
When Lao Qian was in trouble, Wu Huan pointed to the cliff above on the opposite side and said: "There is light on the opposite side, the stone crack should be open, let's go up and take a look." ”
Lao Qian followed his advice, climbed to the bottom of the cliff opposite, took out a monocular, and looked down. I saw that on the other side of the stone crevice, in the clearing along the river, there were seven or eight people dressed as wizards, sitting around a coffin carved in bluestone, quickly chanting incantations.
Although Old Qian didn't know what they were reading, he was sure that they were performing some kind of ritual.
It didn't take long for a triangular head to stick out of the river, and the two fist-sized eyeballs on the head rolled a few times in the river and slowly swam towards the riverbank. When the thing came out of the water, Lao Qian saw that it was a golden toad with a small grinding plate.
As if attracted by something, the toad cautiously crawled towards the coffin.
Before it could get close to the coffin, a wizard suddenly bit his fingertip, flew up to the toad, and quickly wrote a strange symbol on its head, and immediately retreated, far away from the toad's head.
The other wizards hid at once, leaving the coffin in its place.
The toad suddenly let out a roar like a cow, and his body instantly skyrocketed several times, popping out his tongue and rolling up the coffin, and swallowing it into his stomach. The mountain-like toad was lying motionless on the shore, but its size was shrinking, and when it shrank to the size of an ordinary toad, there was a sound of wind breaking through the corners of its clothes, suddenly from far to near.
A group of warriors dressed as Central Plains surrounded the wizards, but they ignored the toads by the river. Perhaps, in their opinion, it is normal for two toads to climb on the river.
One of the warriors raised his sword and pointed at the wizard and said, "Where is Luo Wenchong's corpse?" ”
The wizard saw the toad jump into the water with a "poof", and then he looked up to the sky and laughed: "The holy body has been knocked into the Gu poison coffin by me, and you should never think of looking for him." ”
"Take it!" The samurai gave an order, and the two sides immediately fought in one place.
Lao Qian also quietly retreated from the cliff, even if he rushed down now, he couldn't find the toad in the water anymore, so he could only endure it for the time being, and wait for Xie Bangui to come before making plans.
Xie Bangui originally thought that the so-called "Gu poison coffin" was to coat the coffin with poison, or to raise Gu worms in the coffin, but he never thought that the Gu worms themselves were coffins. After listening to Lao Qian and Mei Xin'er's narration, he was stunned for a long time before muttering to himself: "What is the Gu poison coffin?" ”
Wu Huan explained: "Gu poison coffin, I've heard of some, the legend is that it is a weird corpse refining method in the corpse witch lineage. The corpse witch selects some spiritual Gu worms to devour the corpse, and uses the aura of the spirit Gu to nourish the corpse, and after a few years, the corpse may merge with the spirit Gu and become a half-human, half-Gu monster, and be resurrected. ”
Xie Bangui found the question in Wu Huan's words: "What do you mean by maybe?" ”
Wu Huan explained, "Then it depends on which one is stronger, the corpse or the spirit Gu. If you don't get it right, the corpse will be digested by the Spirit Gu, and in turn it will become the nutrients of the Spirit Gu. ”
Xie Bangui followed Wu Huan's train of thought and analyzed: "So that's the case, so the corpse that can crash into the Gu poison coffin must be a corpse with a certain spiritual sense, and it may even become a zombie of the climate." Otherwise, the corpse can only be devoured? ”
"Probably." Wu Huan wasn't sure: "After all, this kind of thing is just a legend, even a genuine corpse witch may not be able to fully understand it." ”
"Hmm!" Xie Bangui nodded and said, "Can the Gu poison coffin only be a toad?" ”
"No!" This time, Wu Huan affirmed: "Snakes, toads, lizards, and even centipedes that have become climates are fine." As long as it can be used to completely swallow the corpse without damaging the corpse, it can be used to make a Gu poison coffin. ”
"Got it!" Xie Bangui squinted his eyes and said, "According to this statement, making a Gu poison coffin should be an extremely complicated process, how could it be over in just a stick of incense or so?" ”
Lao Qian also seemed to react: "That's right! I said how I felt that something was wrong. It's really what you said, and the process of the toad devouring the corpse is too easy. And how can such a mysterious ritual be easily peeked at? Is there something wrong with that Huo Qingyi? ”
"It's hard to say right now." Xie Bangui said: "Is there any abnormal situation in the vicinity these days?" ”
Lao Qian said: "I've been staring at the group of Central Plains warriors who are chasing and killing wizards, they seem to be constantly gathering people, as if they are going to the Misty Wind Valley to find the toad." ”
Xie Bangui said cautiously: "Who are they, have you found out?" ”
"It's just a group of idle martial arts righteous paths, I don't know where I heard that the witch gate is refining demons and eliminating demons, so I want to go in and kill demons." Old Qian took a sip and said, "The one who started was the person from the Chivalrous League, what is Lin Zhonghe." ”
Xie Bangui set his eyes on Xiao Cai, who nodded and said, "The Chivalrous League does have a Lin Zhonghe, and his status in the alliance is not low. I also have a relationship with Lin Zhonghe, this person is good at everything, but he is too keen on chivalry. ”
"Got it." Xie Bangui nodded and said, "Can you find a way to let me and the fat man blend into the temporary combination of the Chivalrous League?" I'd like to go with them to the Windswept Valley. ”
"That's not a problem." Xiao Cai asked, "How many people do you need to go in?" ”
Xie Bangui thought for a while and said, "Just you, me and the fat man!" I always feel that this time things are not so simple. There are too many people, and it is difficult to get out if something happens. ”
As soon as Mei Xin'er heard that Xie Bangui didn't bring herself, her small mouth immediately pursed, turned her head and sat at the door, and didn't look at Xie Bangui again.
Xie Bangui no longer talks about catching ghosts and catching people, but when he sees that the girl is angry, he only has to catch the blind and crazy. After thinking about it for a long time, I could only pass on the sound to ask Xiao Cai for help, Xiao Cai glanced at Xie Banghost, walked to Mei Xin'er's side and only said a few words, and the little girl immediately became smiling.
Xie Bangui didn't mention or think about Xiao Cai's coaxing Mei Xin'er with a tense face at first, and finally couldn't help asking, "Xiao Cai, what did you say to the girl?" ”
Xiao Cai replied casually: "I told her that what I like is that dead fat man, and I won't rob her Xie Bangui." ”
"How dare you say it!" Xie Bangui and the fat man said in unison.
"It was my aunt's kindness that made you take advantage of the fat man. Let's go! We're almost in the Lost Winds Valley. Follow the place where the Gu poison coffin fell into the water, and then go down the river for ten miles to the Lost Wind Valley. ”
The meaning of the Valley of the Lost Wind is that even if the wind blows into the valley, you will get lost, and in fact it is. The Chivalrous League is full of people who travel from south to north, but no one has ever seen such a complex terrain.
The wind poured in from the north mouth of the valley, and the strength of the wind outlet was strong enough to make those martial arts masters who were self-sustaining and cultivation unable to gain a firm foothold. However, after the wind entered the valley, it was as if it was lost in the rugged valley and could not get out, and kept whistling and circling in the air until it dissipated.
The vegetation that grows in the direction of the downwind is naturally arranged in the dark valley, making it impossible to find out the south, east, west, and northwest. As soon as people enter the valley, they can only grope forward by feeling, and they cannot find a way back.
Most of the martial arts warriors who were still shouting "Hold the sword of justice and sweep away the haze of the world" just now disappeared not long after entering the valley, and the panic caused by their disappearance can be imagined......
Xie Bangui, the only one in the group who remained calm, suddenly showed a sneer.
From the moment Xie Bangui stepped into the center of the valley with one foot, he could conclude that this Mysterious Wind Valley was a large array that used the power of heaven and earth to imprison evil demons.
"No need to go, it's time to come." After Xie Bangui reminded him, he moved to the side.
"Humph!" Someone snorted coldly: "Don't pretend to be an unpredictable prophet there, you are a kid whose yellow hair has not faded, you have grown too much knowledge, and I don't even notice anyone with my skills, what can you see?" ”
Xie Bangui sneered: "The ignorant are meaningless, but they also die the fastest. ”
As soon as Xie Bangui's words fell, the rich green air was like the rising tide of the sea water quietly submerged the instep of the man's foot, and the sharp pain in the heart of the heart came up from the heart of the foot.
"Poisonous!" The man exclaimed, his knees bent slightly, his spine straightened, and he leaped up from the ground with the momentum of pulling onions on dry ground. The terrible thing was that only half of his body flew above his knees, and his legs were firmly pressed to the ground by a pair of miserable green palms.
Between the lightning and flint, a green shadow broke through the ground, and the cold light in his hand rose into the sky like a half-moon, splitting a samurai in mid-air in half.
At the same time, a general wearing iron armor and holding Fang Tian's halberd followed him out of the ground, standing in the rain of blood with his head down, and the murderous aura on Zhou's body was enough to chill thousands of troops.
Many masters instinctively took a step back, closed their breaths, and dodged to seize the favorable terrain to surround the corpse. Xie Bangui's gaze turned to the man's Fang Tian painting halberd, the long halberd was scattered with a green and faint cold glow, one zhang and two feet long, the left and right ears were symmetrical, three-pointed and double-edged, two poisonous insects that looked like snakes and not snakes, and were coiled from the handle of the halberd to the tip of the halberd.
"Kill!"
At the moment when Xie Bangui observed the painting halberd, more than a dozen masters roared violently at the same time, like thunder on dry land, shaking the dead leaves in all directions.
Half of the light and shadow fell, the corpse will cross the halberd to the sky, the two lights and shadows converge in one place, the cold electricity splashes in all directions, the pervasive poles are intertwined and shuttled, and the air resounded with the sound of a piercing metal impact.
A puff of shattered cold light dispersed in the air, it was the fragments of more than a dozen blades, the blood in the sky was shot out in a line, the screams were piercing, the figure that fell rolled on the ground, the corpse turned the halberd, inserted the halberd into the ground, and thousands of cold rays burst out of the ground, like a knife like a wave in all directions, and the figure that rolled out of the ground was instantly divided into countless small pieces, dragging out a series of red blood stains and rolling out several zhang.
