Chapter 101: Fierce Water Demon Corpse
After eating, Uncle Ji took out a few headlamps and handed them over. Old man Xiao smiled: "You bring one yourself, give one to Mengmeng's little girl!" I don't need it with the kid. ”
Uncle Ji looked at Old Man Xiao curiously and said, "It's a big night, I can't see my five fingers, and the river is so dangerous The water is so deep, not to mention that the blood-sucking monster is still there." Don't you use lights? ”
"I have the Taoist Heavenly Eye, and the kid has his mountain demon pupil. You can see in the dark, and you can also see through some magic tricks such as blind eyes. You and Mengmeng Xiaoya should put on their headlamps by themselves! He smiled and pointed to his eyes and said to Uncle Ji, who was standing there with a headlamp.
"Oh! That... All right! Uncle Ji half-convinced and withdrew his hand holding the headlamp.
"Let's go! Let's go straight to the area of water where it often appears! Uncle Ji picked up the Dingjiang spear standing against the wall and turned around and walked out of the door.
I asked Jiang Yimeng to follow me, and then quickly caught up with Uncle Ji.
The four of them walked along the river for half an hour, and finally came to an open area of weeds, with the unfathomable water under their feet, and a trace of white mist rising from the calm water.
The overgrown ground was littered with blood-sucking fowl, blood-stained red feathers everywhere.
I picked up a dead chicken and looked at it carefully, and found that the bite marks on its body looked as if they had been bitten out by human teeth, but the teeth marks had turned into bloody holes.
"Mengmeng, try to get as close to us as possible!" I looked around and reminded Jiang Yimeng.
"yes, okay." Jiang Yimeng nodded, took out a military dagger from his boots, and held it in his hand.
Uncle Ji held the Dingjiang spear horizontally in his hand and carefully searched for it on the ground.
"There are footprints here, you see." Old man Xiao, who was not far away, suddenly shouted excitedly.
"What? Got footprints? Let me see. Uncle Ji ran over with the Dingjiang spear in his hand.
I also hurriedly walked over and looked in the direction of Old Man Xiao's finger, only to see wet footprints on the ground. Looking at the shape, it is obvious that they are human footprints, as if they have just been left.
"I have footprints and blood here." Jiang Yimeng pointed to a muddy and sandy area near the river and said.
I walked over and saw that the footprint was the same size as the one just now, except that there were a few pools of fresh blood next to the footprint.
Old man Xiao squatted down and looked at the footprints, then touched the puddles of blood on the ground with his fingers, and then put his bloodstained fingers under his nose and smelled: "This is sheep blood, that thing should have sucked a sheep just now." It seems to be hidden beneath the waters. The water is so deep here, and it's even more intricate underwater, it's best to deal with it on land. ”
"How do you lure it to shore?" Jiang Yimeng looked at Old Man Xiao curiously.
"None of that is a problem, the main problem right now is that we don't know anything about it, not even what it is. What can you do with it?" Although Uncle Ji was talking to us, his eyes were fixed on the water.
"Yes, I have a way, listen to me, first put out all the lights, and then I have a way to lure it out. Don't be impulsive just yet! Old man Xiao patted his head and said excitedly.
"Hmmm! All right! I listen to you. Uncle Ji took the lead in turning off the headlamp on his head, and Jiang Yimeng also turned off the light.
Darkness returned to the surroundings, and the sound of insects around them rang out again. A few of us crept quietly in the grass, keeping an eye on the water.
The dark clouds in the sky completely covered the moon, and Old Man Xiao nodded: "It's time, the dark clouds cover the moon, and the yin qi is the heaviest." After speaking, he hurriedly took out the charm and said something in his mouth.
The spell burned violently, and a Dao character emitting a golden glow appeared in the air. The golden light lit up the water.
Old man Xiao shushed softly: "Shhh Let's wait for it to come out! After saying that, he turned his head to look at the movement on the water.
Minutes and seconds passed, and the calm water was still silent. I couldn't hold my breath a little anymore: "Can you do it?" Old Shaw. ”
"Shhhh Wait! It's bound to come out. Old man Xiao didn't reply, and said calmly.
Just as I was about to doze off uncontrollably, there was a slight rattling sound on the water.
"It's coming, stay safe!" Old man Xiao reminded us with a smile.
I pulled out two bronze daggers from my waist and held them tightly, vigilantly searching for them on the water. A series of bubbles poured up from the bottom of the water, and it seemed that something had already come.
A figure suddenly appeared on the black water, leaning towards the Dao character that Old Man Xiao's spell had turned into.
Maybe it's because of curiosity, maybe it's because the Dao character is a spell illusion, and the aura on the Dao character has attracted it.
Sure enough, the figure stood in the water not far from the Dao Character, and the golden light emitted by the Dao Character became more and more vigorous.
"It looks like a person! Be careful, everyone! After all, I don't know if it's a human or a ghost! Old man Xiao said softly.
The wet figure was completely attracted by the golden light emitted by the Dao character at this time, and stood there motionless looking at the Dao character floating in the air.
After a while, the light on the Dao character became fainter and fainter. The figure seemed to sense the breath of a living person on us, and turned towards the grass where we were squatting.
It was then that I realized that the figure was a mossy white skeleton.
"I see, it's a demon corpse. It was formed from the corpse of a human who died unjustly under the water, and judging from its various behaviors of preying on poultry and attacking humans, it must have opened its mind and had a mind. I said hurriedly.
"As a Yin River Spirit Officer, my duty to kill such evil creatures is my goal." Uncle Ji looked at the mossy corpse and nodded.
"I didn't expect that there was a demon corpse hidden here, and since it had already tasted the smell of human blood, it definitely couldn't continue to leave it in this world. After all, human blood can drive it crazy. Old Man Xiao nodded and continued: "The aura that is cold in human blood can make its cultivation go further. ”
Although the demon corpse has turned into a white bone, its sensing ability is particularly powerful, and after sensing our position, it opened its two huge arms and rushed over.
"Don't worry, look at me." Uncle Ji raised the Dingjiang spear and stabbed at the demon corpse.
As soon as the black tip of the Dingjiang spear touched the demon corpse, a puff of smoke emanated from the demon corpse's body.
It seemed to know the power of the Dingjiang spear in Uncle Ji's hand, so it turned around and pounced on me.
I gently pushed away Jiang Yimeng next to me... He pounced on the demon corpse.
