It turned out that when I leaned over to check whether I was injured, I had already met the tanuki's gaze, and it was at that moment that I was confused by it.

The thin old man in black that I had just seen was an illusion created in my mind by the tanuki.

Thinking of this, my cold sweat suddenly wet my back, and I was secretly glad that Jingmei gave me a jade pendant before leaving, if it weren't for this jade pendant, I am afraid that I would have been like Chen Liming in front of me, I was disemboweled, and my internal organs and intestines were disemboweled.

In a hurry, I have understood many things.

At this point, the tanuki in front of me didn't realize that I had woken up, and was pressing its sharp claws against my stomach, and making a satisfying cry from its mouth.

Anger rose in my heart, and I immediately quickly reached out and grabbed its neck, pulling it out of Chen Liming's stomach. Then he slammed it into the side of the river rock.

"Evil animals, harm people a lot, go and die!" I shouted angrily, and this Zheng used all his strength.

Syllable! Clamour!

The tanuki collided with the stiff river rocks and let out a terrible scream.

It slipped to the ground, but it was not dead, and quickly turned over and ran onto the stone surface, a pair of strange cross-eyes glaring at me.

I have already suffered a loss, and at this time I dare to look into its eyes, and I picked up the mountain whip with my possession, and I did not make eye contact with it.

"Wow!"

At this time, the little white grinned, let out an authentic dog bark for the first time, and pounced on the tanuki.

Dogs are the natural enemies of cats, although Xiaobai is young, but the tanuki is cunning and timid by nature, and does not dare to fight Xiaobai head-on, so he turns around and flees.

When I saw that it was about to flee, I immediately chased after it and smashed it with my whip.

This kind of mountain spirit is full of evil, extremely vicious, and the most vindictive. If it is allowed to escape tonight, I don't know how many people will be killed in the future.

In fact, I wondered in my heart, this tanuki was not originally born from Heaven Mountain, why did it appear on the reservoir embankment in the first place?

The most puzzling thing is that at that time it was far less evil than it is now, and it could confuse people's minds.

Could it be that on the dam of the reservoir that night, it was just a test of my ability?

Although the tanuki was injured, it was still very fast, and was forced by me and Xiaobai to run around, trying to escape into the dense forest but couldn't.

I saw that it was getting slower and slower, and it was evident that it was an attack of injury, and if it delayed a little longer, it would not be able to make waves.

And now Xiaobai is fierce, and he doesn't have to worry about his bewitching magic again.

A few minutes later, Xiaobai finally seized the opportunity and bit the tanuki's hind legs.

The tanuki was forced to be anxious, suddenly became fierce, turned around and slapped a paw on Xiaobai's head. Its claws were sharp, and the little white head was instantly scratched with several blood marks, and it staggered to the side.

I raised my whip and smashed.

The tanuki screamed, its front paws pressed on the ground, and its hind legs swooped down on my face like an arrow from a string.

In desperation, I stretched out my left hand and grabbed at the tanuki that was rushing towards me.

"Poof!"

There was a sharp pain in my arm, and although I protected my head and face, my arm was cut by the tanuki's sharp claws with three deep blood marks.

When the tanuki saw that I was injured, he did not hesitate to fight when he landed, and flew away towards the woods beside him.

As long as it enters the woods, no one will stop it.

"Brute, you still want to run away after killing someone!"

Just as I watched as the tanuki was about to flee into the forest, a cry suddenly came from the forest.

Then, like a snake, a rope shot out of the dense forest, and in an instant it whipped the tanuki back.

Then, a man quickly burst out of the forest, her speed was so fast that she caught up with the tanuki who was still in mid-air almost instantly.

Then his hands raised countless palm shadows and slammed them into the tanuki.

The tanuki screamed miserably, and finally slammed and fell to the ground, motionless, and was already dead.

I opened my mouth wide and was dumbfounded.

This weird and demonic tanuki was so easily slapped to death by the other party with a meat palm, you must know that you couldn't hurt its life even though you tried your best just now.

In the field, Yan Xiaoying was wearing a tight leather suit, and the corpse rope was wrapped around her waist several times, showing her bumpy figure even more obviously.

At the moment, she was pale and looking at me with an angry expression.

"Okay, you Lao Tianyan, you said you would reply to me tonight, but you secretly set off here by yourself, hum!" As she spoke, blood spilled from the corners of her mouth.

Apparently, she galloped all the way to the wound in her abdomen, which at this point attacked.

I looked embarrassed and wanted to go over to help her, but when I saw that she was fierce, I didn't dare to go over, and said, "This...... Aren't I worried about your injury, besides, Yuting just happened to come to me for something to go into the mountain together......"

Yan Xiaoying frowned, reached out and wiped the blood on the corner of her mouth, sat on a river stone with the wound on her abdomen, and then looked at Huang Yuting, who was unconscious not far away.

"What's going on? How could she be here? How did you meet the cat demon? ”

"It's a long story, I'll tell you about it later."

As I spoke, I walked into the tent that Chen Liming had set up earlier, found a medicine box inside, took out the disinfectant potion, and treated the wounds on my arms and stomach.

"Woo!"

At this time, Xiaobai staggered up from the ground.

It had just been wounded, and the tanuki's claws had cut three horrific wounds on its head.

I helped it treat its wounds, and then went to see Huang Yuting, and found that she was just too weak and unconscious, so I immediately carried her into the tent to rest, and then collected dry wood to make a fire to keep warm.

At this time, Xiaobai was tearing at the carcass of the tanuki, so I drank it and hugged it back.

"Tell me, what the hell is going on?"

Yan Xiaoying saw that I was done, sat on the side expressionlessly, and asked again.

I didn't hide it, I told everything that happened after I left the coffin shop, met Huang Yuting in my own house, discovered her abnormality, and then brought her here.

After Yan Xiaoying heard this, her brows furrowed even deeper, and finally she asked me coldly: "The place where the ghost lantern grows is very dangerous, do you want to find the antidote by yourself, do you think there is a possibility of success?" At the beginning, my grandma and your grandfather went with a group of seven people, and only two people came back in the end, don't you know how dangerous this trip is? ”

"It's because of the danger that I didn't inform you. Now that you are hurt, I am afraid that it will hurt you. I explained with a wry smile.

"You think I'm a liability? Dislike me? Yan Xiaoying raised her eyebrows and asked me.

"No...... No, how can you be a burden! ”

I wiped the cold sweat from my forehead and said, "You are agile and profound, I can't even compare to your little finger, how dare I dislike you." ”

Yan Xiaoying snorted coldly, and finally remained silent and did not speak.

The atmosphere in the room was a little awkward, and I wanted to talk to her to relieve the atmosphere, but I didn't know what to say for a while.

Fortunately, at this time, shouts were heard in the woods, and the beams from seven or eight flashlights shook inside.

Looking at this battle, I didn't have to think about it to know that it was Li Guodong's people who came.

Sure enough, a group of eight people found here, and Li Guodong personally led the team and appeared in front of me in full armor.

Seeing me and Yan Xiaoying roasting the fire, they were all stunned, and then walked over.

Li Guodong was very efficient, he first ordered his subordinates to inspect the scene, examine the body, and then pulled me aside for questioning.

I told him everything except for the secret that I was going deep into the mountains to find the antidote to the ghost lantern.

By the time they had finished taking notes and gathered the bodies, half an hour had passed.

"This is a special case, and we will handle it specially." Li Guodong told me that as for what he did with the law, it was unknown, and I didn't care about that.

Finally, Li Guodong wanted to ask Yan Xiaoying and me to go back to his office to make a transcript.

But we refused, because we had already made it clear to him what he wanted to know.

Li Guodong smiled, did not put on a show, let alone forced, and was very polite to us.

He was clear-minded and knew that Yan Xiaoying and I still had things, so he didn't stay too long.

When he finally took away the body of the tanuki, he patted me on the shoulder and said with a smile: "The little brother is good, he can take charge of himself when he first takes office, and he has the style of your grandfather back then." In addition to the snake, kill the snake man, kill the cat demon, I will give you these credits on the file, if there is such a thing in the future, remember to notify me as soon as possible, I will deal with the aftermath for you. ”

I heard Li Guodong say that this is awkward, what is it called dealing with the aftermath? I'm not dead yet.

Moreover, although the things he mentioned were related to me, they were not actually done by me.

Of course, I understand what Li Guodong means in my heart, and he reports these things to the above, all of which are credits. He naturally likes to see such a good thing, and even wishes that I would trouble him every day.

I didn't explain too much, and when Li Guodong left in the end, I asked him to take Huang Yuting back with him.

As for how to explain what happened here to Chen Liming and Huang Yuting's family, that is Li Guodong's own business, and it has nothing to do with me.

Seeing them leave, I asked Yan Xiaoying, "What are we going to do now?" Do you want to keep going, or do you go back and rest for two days and wait for your injuries to heal? ”

"Can't wait that long."

Yan Xiaoying shook her head and said, "Old Fat can't wait that long, since they have already come here, let's go to the forest house." ”

"Your wounds...... Is it okay? ”

"Skin trauma, out of the way." Yan Xiaoying replied.

I didn't object, and after discussion, I took Chen Liming's medicine box, hugged the injured Xiaobai, and took Yan Xiaoying back to the stone cave.

I was very curious in my heart, and asked Yan Xiaoying if she used a palm technique that belonged to martial arts when she killed the tanuki just now? It looks pretty powerful.

"It's called a bone crusher, and it's for corpses. You should know that although Grandma and I are open coffins, we usually come into contact with corpses, and this palm technique can smash the joints of the corpse and restrict its movement, similar to splitting muscles and bones. No matter how ferocious the corpse is, if it is not supported by bones and joints, it is just a puddle of rotten meat, which can be slaughtered. ”

"And such a powerful palm?"

I felt a wave of envy in my heart, it was simply jealousy. Look at the elders of other people, and then think about their old man, this is simply incomparable.

"You want to learn?" Yan Xiaoying suddenly raised her eyebrows and asked me.

"Yes!"

I was pleasantly surprised and asked, "Can you teach me?" ”

"Yes! But...... First of all, you need to understand the joint structure of the corpse, and the best way is to remove the joints of the corpse one by one by yourself, and then pick them back. After understanding the joint structure, it is necessary to increase the strength of the palm, otherwise the joint will not be broken at all with one palm. I have a detailed set of exercises to teach you when the time comes. ”

"So troublesome?" I asked, with my mouth wide open.

"Of course, to have a skill, it is not something that can be learned overnight, when I practiced this palm technique, I was locked in a secret room by my grandmother in front of several corpses for more than three months." Yan Xiaoying rolled her eyes at me and said lightly.

I swallowed my saliva and said, "I'm mediocre...... It doesn't seem to be suitable for practicing this kind of palm technique! ”
