Oriental Ghost Sea Chapter 90

"It's a Dementor Nail, and it looks like we're going to have to work hard to get out of this ship." The fat man said lightly.

He fiddled with the bones, and the ground had not been cleared several times because the iron chains were tightly attached to the bones. After a few seconds, the fat man stood short and kicked away the rotten bones.

The bones were removed, except for the eleven nails where some fragments remained. The spikes are arranged at once, forming a strange human shape.

"Dementor nails? You heard it from the bull's nose in the yellow coat. ”

"I'm different from you, I don't joke when something terrible happens. It sounds evil, but it's true. ”

The fat man swore by it, and he didn't see that he seemed to be boasting nonsense.

"I want to hear about it." As I spoke, I made a gesture of please.

The fat man seemed to want to pry the long nail out, but this nail was different from the previous big wooden box, and there seemed to be some small barbs in the opposite direction, and the fat man told the whole story of the dementor nail while prying.

There are many sources of the Dementor Nails, but most of them are also anecdotes of evil magic from all sides, and what the fat man is talking about is a story related to this thing in the Miscellaneous Wild History.

The incident happened in the branch mountain ridge on the west side of the Qinling Mountains, where there is a place known as Camel Gully. The place itself is not very large, because it is an important road connecting the Ganshan River, so it is also a place where post houses and horse gangs are stayed.

The terrain here is very peculiar, it is a three-way intersection, both sides of the road are high into the clouds of the mountains, all year round do not see the clouds and mist disperse, this place is naturally wet and rainy, people who can not adapt to live here for more than three days, will have a sore waist and legs.

There are a lot of people who come here, so strange things often happen. The events related to the Dementor Nail took place in the early Ming Dynasty.

There were many caravans in Camel Valley, and there was such a caravan at that time, this team traveled all the way from the coast of Shandong, and never spoke to anyone on the road, and the men who drove the car were all dressed in uniform clothes, not at all like the coolies in the business.

Contrary to the usual differences, they must be demons.,Although this kind of team doesn't communicate with anyone.,It seems that they want to go silent.,But the more this happens, the more suspicious it will be.。

When the team had just passed Tongguan, news spread on the road. It's not that simple to say that this team is not so simple.

There are many reasons for this kind of news to circulate, in fact, a discerning person will know why it is true if he walks a hundred and ten miles. Although there is a clear destination, there will be a variety of pick-up and drop-off points along the way, and there will be differences everywhere you go. But this team traveled all the way, except for eating and sleeping.

With the news, there are naturally people who are worried. These people escorting the goods are all extraordinary, and at a glance, you can tell that they must be people from the government.

The more people who think about it, the more mysterious it becomes, almost as if they have seen what the goods are. Among them, some of them said that they were sent to Fanbang, and even more outrageous said that this was a team that secretly sought elixir for the emperor, and the goods contained the treasures of the world that were used to exchange immortal elixirs with immortals.

At that time, people didn't have any afternoon entertainment, just waiting for these things to be entertained. In addition, the group itself is walking on the business road, and the news spreads quickly, and the team has not yet reached the camel ditch, and a group of mountain bandits in the camel ditch who are robbing houses and houses are already gearing up, and they are all ready to do this ticket.

The camel ditch is not named because of the landform in the ditch, at least there is no landform in the ditch that can be related to the camel. The main reason for this name is that this three-way canyon leans against a low mountain in the direction of the Hanzhong Plain.

This mountain is much smaller than other branch mountains of the Qinling Mountains, there is no arbor on the peak, all are weeds over the waist, just because this mountain has two peaks to compose, from a distance it looks like a camel grazing with its head bowed down, so the mountain is called the camel mountain, and the deep ditch it faces is also called a camel ditch.

To get back to the point, the strange-looking caravan dragged the carriage to the mouth of the valley. What they didn't know was that at the foot of the camel mountain at the mouth of the valley, there was already a group of bandits waiting there.

The story is a jumpy turn at this point, and no one knows what happened to the caravan and bandits under the camel mountain at the mouth of the valley.

The caravan arrived at the mouth of the ditch at noon on the first day, and it was reasonable to say that it only took half an hour to reach the post station in the camel ditch, but I don't know why the caravan entered the post station in the evening of the second day, and some people who had met them found that there were at least five people missing from the group, because there was no one to talk to, so the reason for this is unknown.

If it is said that the bandits robbed the road, there is also the possibility of killing people and robbing money, but the caravan looks like there is nothing missing, and that gang of bandits has not appeared since that time, as if the world has evaporated.

The caravan left the next morning when it was still dark, and the inn never saw the caravan return.

When it comes to the big head of the matter here, of course the locals are happy without bandits, although those bandits can't do the things of destroying the door and robbing money, but they come to patronize every once in a while, but it also makes the people here uncomfortable, so the bandits are gone, and the remaining part of the accounts is also a small fortune.

But before the joy had passed, they couldn't laugh anymore. This is the main road, and it is not possible to say that there are merchants passing by all the time, but there are at least two or three teams a day.

It's just that after the unidentified merchants left, not a single caravan came over from the trade road that connected the direction of Qinchuan for three consecutive days.

This is very strange, and it also happens that a merchant in the ditch has not waited for the goods, this batch of goods should have arrived the next day, but it has been delayed for two days without seeing anyone, because the consignee is pressing to get the goods, so the shopkeeper of the business has to send out a few men to look for it outside the ditch.

A few people set off at sunrise and didn't return until sunset. And only two of them came back alive, and one of them lost an arm.

Listening to these two guys, they saw more than a dozen carriages parked outside the valley when they left the valley, but there was no one in sight.

When they got closer, they found that the frame was parked under or around a century-old tree, and several people wondered that this cargo was not ashamed but it was gone, which was really rare.

They couldn't find anyone, so they rested under the tree, and one of them found some cats. The tree is hundreds of years old, with a large canopy, and it is the height of summer, so the entire canopy is covered in green leaves.

The man sat under the tree, only to feel that something had fallen on his head, and as soon as he touched it, he was wet, and when he looked at his hand, the blood on his hand directly frightened him and paralyzed him on the ground.

When they recovered, they saw clearly that the canopy of dozens of people was densely hung with corpses. There was a man who had been collecting accounts all the year round, and he had seen some of the world, and he was bolder than the others, so he climbed up alone. As a result, no one expected that this person went up and didn't come down.

The rest of the guys didn't dare to go up, and there was no response to the calls below. At this moment, the canopy shook a few times, and several vines poked out of it, and they instantly wrapped around a person and dragged him up.

The guy with the broken arm was wrapped around his arm, or was another person desperately dragging him, only to lose an arm and save his life.

When the two men returned, it became wild in the ditch that the old trees outside the valley had grown into essence. For a while, the small market town was full of panic, no one dared to go out from there, and I don't know where many people were killed again.

Merchants always have to do business, and it's okay for a while, but after a long time, they will definitely not be able to bear the loss, plus the news can't get out, and there must be people killed outside the valley. In the end, all the people who opened shops and post houses here came up with a way, and they scraped together a large sum of money to find someone to go the way into Sichuan to find a master to destroy this demon.

From Gan in and out of Shu all the way through Longnan to Yizhou, which is now Chengdu. During this period, you have to pass through a place, that is, Jiuzhaigou. At that time, that area was known as the blessed land of immortals, and it once became a place for all kinds of cultivators and immortals.

The man with the money really found a Taoist priest who called himself Tiange here, and this Taoist priest didn't want half a penny of property, so he followed his companion to the camel ditch.

The next day, most of the young and strong laborers in the ditch went to the place where the dryad was located, with the lime and charcoal powder requested by the Taoist priest. When they arrived at the place, everyone was shocked, and the number of trucks in this place had already increased several times, and the trees were full of white bones of horses and human remains.

At this time, the tree saw that there were many people coming, but it also became even more excited, like ten thousand snakes dancing wildly, and frantically stretched its vines and attacked them.

According to the meaning of the Tiange Daoist, everyone mixed lime powder and charcoal powder together and sprinkled them on the vines that stretched out, and the vines were as if they had been drained of juice, and the vines that were stained instantly dried up and fell off.

The fight didn't stop until the dryad was almost killed. At this time, this century-old giant tree has long since lost its leaves, and has completely become a stump.

Seeing this scene, everyone wanted to burn the demon tree in anger, but the Taoist priest stopped it, and the rhetoric was that it was not the tree itself that was causing trouble, but the thing in the trunk was not the one that made the trouble.

When they learned about it, the others found tools and split the trunk of the tree in succession. They found something even more terrifying.

There is a person growing in the trunk of the tree, in fact, it is not accurate to say that, but the trunk has no opening, and this person grows in the trunk.

And in this person. The key thing was discovered, and that was the Soul Spike.

The Taoist priest himself was also very strange, but as soon as he saw the dementor nail, his face changed instantly, he didn't say anything about the use of this thing, and directly dispersed all the people, only two Taoist priests mentioned the strong man who volunteered to stay.

The big tree was burned before everyone left, but the people never came back, and no one knew where the Taoist priest and the two strong men went, but the good thing was that nothing happened after that, and the matter was gradually forgotten.
