Chapter 50: The Phantom of the Past Life
With a flick of the witch disciple's iron hook, he pulled a bloody scale from his shoulder and placed it in the wooden box and presented it.
When Mu Huo saw it, he ordered his disciples to pull it all out, cut off the carrion with a knife, and poured a special potion.
"The mortal fetus of the flesh can't withstand the erosion of this demonic blood." His demeanor was numb, seeing that Yu Feiqiong was about to lose consciousness, he was still gritting his teeth and stiffening, and he didn't tell the truth, so he went out of the house with Xiaoshui and others and temporarily detained him.
Next to the tea stall outside the alley, Ding Ruoyu and Chen Lan dressed up as ordinary women and secretly checked passers-by. More than a dozen Han businessmen hurriedly walked in front of them, and the two of them took a few more looks, and saw that they were dressed like ordinary people, but they were all wearing gloves.
Ding Ruoyu turned his gaze back, but inadvertently swept a small section of blue-green wrist skin exposed by one person.
She thought she had seen the flowers, and was about to get up to take a closer look when she was knocked away by Chen Lan's elbow.
Several tiny poisonous needles passed by, causing a faint fishy smell.
The two looked at each other, the soldiers divided into two ways, Chen Lan followed the direction of the hidden weapon, and Ding Ruoyu flew up with that blow, following closely behind a group of people wearing gloves.
The crowd walked for more than half an hour, through several streets and alleys, and stopped in a deserted valley on the outskirts.
There was a lake in the valley, and the group of people waited silently on the shore, when suddenly there was a sound of water, and a tall strange man came out of the lake, and one of the merchants came out, and hurriedly picked up the clothes that were on the big stone beside him, and waited for the man to dress.
Ding Ruoyu huddled in the half-human-tall weeds, watched the man take a bath and change clothes with an expressionless face, and pricked up his ears to listen to the conversation between the merchant and him, but unfortunately the distance was too far, and he could only vaguely distinguish some simple words they said when their voices were loud.
"Medicine man test?" Her lips moved silently, and she moved her legs, touching something on the tip of her toe.
Ding Ruoyu rolled on the spot, avoided it in the opposite direction, and then looked back, revealing a severed hand where he had just touched.
She crawled over, touched a thick stalk of grass, picked out the hand and looked at it, the break was very uneven, as if it had been bitten off from her body, and the flesh was crawling with maggots.
Taking out the gauze to cover her mouth and nose, she continued to rummage through the grass, and soon found her other hand and the rest of her body.
The body was decomposed, and the man's tongue had been cut off and his hands had been severed, but the rest of the body was intact. She hid the man back in the grass and looked at the small lake.
The merchant who had dressed the tall man was smearing a potion on the faces of the other merchants, all of whom were motionless and puppet-like except him and the tall man.
After a while, the potion on these people's faces began to bubble, and then slowly absorbed and disappeared, revealing the true colors of strange complexions.
The merchant in the lead also took off his hat and tore off the human skin mask on his face. Ding Ruoyu's eyebrows frowned slightly, this person was actually the Cang'er who they had nowhere to find when they stepped on the iron shoes.
Her gaze drifted to the tall man, presumably this one had also undergone Cang'er's disguise.
At this time, the tall man's hand moved, and he didn't know what seal he was making, and more than a dozen green-faced businessmen moved in unison, forming a strange formation.
Cang'er said a few words to the tall man and then hid behind the boulder, the path into the valley sounded the sound of horses' hooves in the distance, a group of four horsemen dressed like snow, one before and three behind, hooves and dust appeared in the valley.
The formation of the green-faced merchants immediately moved, and when the four horsemen approached, green water spewed out from their hands, pouring all the three horsemen and horses in the rear into a green color, and then in just a moment, both men and horses collapsed to the ground, their bodies black and festering into white bones.
The degree of yin poison made Ding Ruoyu's heart sink in the grass. She clutched at the weeds in front of her, and without making a sound, being found at her current level would be tantamount to death.
The only man in white abandoned his horse and dodged the poisonous attack at an incredible angle in mid-air, and the golden light and flames on his body came out together, and the flying flowers fell into the formation like jade, and disappeared into the body of the green-faced merchant.
The man in white stepped on one of the men's heads, flew to the edge of the lake, slapped the tall man in the chest, and slammed it into the middle of the lake.
The green-faced merchants in the rear collectively froze on the ground, turning into puddles of turquoise pus.
Behind the boulder, Cang'er saw this scene and tiptoed to slip away, but was intercepted by Ding Ruoyu, who suddenly rushed out.
Cang Er panicked, and was about to wave his hand to beg for mercy, when half of the sword body appeared on his chest.
Ding Ruoyu's eyes widened, and he stretched out his hand to help him, but the sword in front of him disappeared and fell back into the scabbard of the man in white, and Cang'er also fell to the ground.
"I said I wanted to be captured alive, why did I ......" Maybe the scene she saw before was too tragic and stimulated her, but at this moment, she saw Cang'er dying, and she couldn't calm down at all.
"He's useless." The man in white didn't expect her to suddenly appear here, stepped forward to hold her, and walked towards the mountain road.
Ding Ruoyu followed him and came to the hidden cave halfway up the mountain.
This was the first time she had seen Lihong kill with her own eyes.
Whether it was movement or momentum, it was like the instinct of breathing, and Xingyun Liu did not hesitate, and she knew at a glance that countless people had died in his hands.
The fear in her heart that had been suppressed for a long time quietly sprouted again.
There was no firewood in the cold and narrow cave, so Lihong directly roasted a carrier pigeon for her with the phantom fire in the palm of his hand, and only fed her two mouthfuls before vomiting.
Ding Ruoyu crouched in the thatched hole, dizzy and without any energy. As it got dark, Lihong retreated from the cave and looked at the valley below.
"There's a fierce battle in the valley later, don't make a noise no matter what you see, and I'll tell you some things when I'm safe." He said softly.
The arm was pulled, and Ding Ruoyu got up and blocked the cave.
"I'm not involved." Judging by her expression, it seemed like she was afraid that he would go out and fight with people again. Lihong dragged it back, locked it in his arms and said, "Just watch the battle." ”
Who is he hiding? Ding Ruoyu thought secretly. Exhausted, locked by him, he couldn't even move.
It was dark outside, and a looming staircase appeared in the distant sky under the cover of clouds in the west, descending from the sky and falling into the valley.
"Here we are." Lihong whispered, reminding her not to speak again.
A female doll in red jumped out of the ladder, and a colorful luan galloped through the clouds in the east, and an old man in a crane appeared in the north.
I only heard the old man say to the pink carved female doll: "Sister Deng, you said that the old Si Ming calculated that the demon monster appeared here tonight, and asked me to come and capture it, why did there be no movement?" ”
An old man with white hair called another five or six-year-old girl his sister, and in the cave, Ding Ruoyu was dumbfounded.
"Old man Crane, you're in too much of a hurry." The humanity in the float suddenly disappeared out of thin air, and a middle-aged man walked slowly in mid-air, dressed gorgeously and extremely dazzling.
The three of them landed on the ground, each holding a magic weapon, measured the aftermath of the residual nian qi on the ground, and flew over the lake together.
The otherwise calm surface of the lake rippled slightly. Gradually, the ripples grew larger and larger, and bubbles bubbled up in the middle of the lake.
Looking down from a high position, the bottom of the lake seems to be a hidden monster, swimming in circles and circles, dyeing all the originally clear lake water dark green.
A gust of wind rose from the ground, and the water in the lake rushed upwards and swept towards the three celestials in mid-air.
"Hurry!" The middle-aged man in a gorgeous costume quickly drew a formation and pointed towards the spurting lake, and a huge circular circle glowing with golden light pressed all the water droplets back into the lake.
"I can't recover, so why do you still have to work hard?" At the bottom of the lake, a gloomy and cold voice echoed.
"Flowing Flame!" The old man shouted loudly, "You were originally created by the Heavenly Fortune Pavilion to monitor the father and son of the First Monarch and entered the Nether Realm, but now you have not only forgotten your mission, but you are also doing whatever you want in the mortal realm...... I'm going to bring you back to the Heavenly Palace today! ”
At the bottom of the lake, Liuyan laughed, and several jet-black water columns pierced through the gaps in the huge magic circle runes and slapped at the old man's white crane.
The white crane let out a loud and clear sound, and the man in the fancy costume roared angrily.
"Shut up!" The man at the bottom of the lake said, "For thousands of years, which of your requests did I not do, and what ended up in the end?" Tianyun Pavilion, it's going to die! ”
"Evil obstacles, don't quibble!" The man in the fancy costume said that he couldn't do it, and continued to add a magic circle.
He suddenly turned his head, and the figure of the female doll in red disappeared in midair.
In the cave, Lihong hugged Ding Ruoyu, and the red-clothed girl who was looking at the entrance of the cave with her little head stared wide-eyed.
The girl looked at them for a long time, took out a string of bells tied with red strings from her arms, and smiled at Lihong and said, "Soul Bell, give." ”
"Do you know who I am?" Li Hong sneered and took the bell.
"I don't just know you, I know her." The girl smiled and pointed at Ding Ruoyu, and two cute little dimples appeared on her chubby little face.
"For me...... Say hello to the old priest. Li Hong lowered his eyes and covered all his emotions.
The girl in red smiled and nodded, and in the blink of an eye, she was back on the surface of the lake.
Ding Ruoyu saw Lihong's expression gloomy, and held his hand holding the soul bell.
Suddenly dizzy, she closed her eyes and saw the two of them locked up in a dark hall, she hugged him with a wounded and broken hand, and smiled desperately, and suddenly her muscles and bones fell apart, turning into blood and spilling on him.
Li Hong shook off her hand, Ding Ruoyu was startled, woke up from the boundless pain, and looked at him sobbing silently, but he couldn't shed a single tear.
"Don't be afraid, what you see is fake." Li Hong whispered softly in her ear.
But even his own voice trembled......
In the valley, the flowing flame finally broke through the water, and the dazzling electric light shone all around, fighting with the crane and the man in gorgeous clothes.
The sky was overcast, and it was about to rain.
The red-clothed female doll sat cross-legged in mid-air and rose to the middle of the sky, with an extra red lotus in her hand.
Golden light overflowed from the lotus flowers, illuminating the sky and dispelling the floating clouds.
