Chapter Seventy-Seven: A Body Locked Underwater
At the exit of the dark river of Guanyin Mountain, the Taoist leaders of the Qinglu Temple were packing up their things and preparing to evacuate, and Liu Yue stood with an old man with gray hair and a navy blue robe. This old man's eyes were deep and his eyes were dark, and there was a flame-shaped red pattern tattooed on his forehead, especially the long hooked nose on his face was very conspicuous, he was a Gu master from all the way from southern Xinjiang, Wade.
The two of them stood at the mouth of the dark river, and Wade said in a hoarse voice: "I have cleaned up the Gu poison on the corpse, these Gu poisons are not much different from those on the stone talisman, they are all special Hundred Insect Gu, so it is not difficult to clean up." ”
Liu Yue said respectfully: "It's really troublesome Master Wade this time, you have done us such a big favor, I really don't know how to thank you!" ”
Wade smiled and said, "Daoist Liu Yue is polite, I have been friends with the Heavenly Master for decades, and these favors are nothing. However, I'm quite interested in what happened to you in Lucheng, I've experienced countless strange things before, but none of them are as mysterious and interesting as Lucheng. ”
Liu Yue also smiled and said, "But there is a huge threat hidden under these mysteries, I think it's better for you not to be too interested." ”
Wade glanced at Liu Yue and said, "Don't worry, I'm just an outsider full of curiosity, if you need help, I will do it." If you don't need the old man, the old man won't meddle in anything. ”
Liu Yue asked suspiciously, "Listening to the meaning of Master Wade's words, do you want to stay in Lucheng?" ”
Wade smiled and said, "I plan to stay in this mysterious place for a while to gain some knowledge and experience, you and the Heavenly Master won't be unwelcome to me, right?" ”
Liu Yue shook her head and said, "Master Wade misunderstood, you have done us such a big favor, how could we not welcome you?" Besides, with you, we don't have to worry about this kind of thing in the future. ”
Wade listened to Liu Yue's words and said reassuringly: "That's good, it just so happens that I can also catch up with the Heavenly Master during this time." ”
When the sun rose in mid-air, Daoist Yunfeng came over and greeted, "Uncle Liuyue, Master Wei, everything is packed!" Shall we go back to the Green Furnace now? ”
Liu Yue nodded and said, "Now that the matter here is all settled, we should also go back." ”
After speaking, the head of the Qingluguan group came to the parking place with equipment and salutes, and after loading the car, he set off in the direction of Lucheng.
At noon, Liu Yue and his party came to Luxing Mountain. After returning to the Qinglu Temple, Liu Yue said to Wade: "I'll let a few teachers and nephews take you to see the Heavenly Master first, I have other things to deal with, so I won't accompany you!" ”
Wade smiled at Liu Yue and said, "It's okay, Daoist Liu Yue will go to work first if he has something, and we will have time to chat in the future." ”
After saying goodbye to Wade, Liu Yue came to her room and put some rune paper artifacts in her cloth pocket, and went out again. At this time, Mo Luochen and Ai Xuanlian had also arrived at the gate of the Taoist temple to wait for him, and after the three of them converged, they drove to the western suburbs of the house.
Since Wu Wei woke up like crazy yesterday evening, he hasn't woken up again. Yuan Meng went out in the morning and never came back, and the people were managed by six team leaders, all of whom stayed in the house and didn't go out.
Wu Wei lay quietly in the room, the light in the room was a little dim, and it seemed that it was difficult for the sunlight to shine through the oiled paper pasted on the doors and windows. The mirror that was originally fastened on the table stood up again at some point, and there were a few blood marks flowing from the cracks in the mirror.
A faint smell emanated from the mirror, followed by a puff of pink smoke from the mirror. The smoke slowly condensed together, and finally transformed into a woman. The woman was dressed in a bright red gauze dress, with long, wavy black hair, and lips that were red as if they had been stained with blood, and her skin was very white.
She gently came to Wu Wei's bed, and then sat on the edge of the bed and looked down at Wu Wei. She looked at Wu Wei for a long time, and finally reached out and stroked Wu Wei's face, Wu Wei's brows suddenly trembled.
The woman slowly leaned over, and when she was about to put her face on Wu You's face, she took a sharp breath, only to see that Wu Wu's mouth and nose were sucked out of a few lines of blood. After the woman took a large breath of blood, she sat up again and stroked Wu Wei's body with her right hand again.
She slowly stroked down from Wu Wei's cheek, down her neck to Wu Wei's chest, and then from her chest to Wu Wei's lower abdomen, and finally her hand stopped at Wu Wei's dantian.
She pressed her palm on Wu You's dantian, as if she was feeling something, and finally she raised her hand to cover her cheek and gently closed her eyes. The woman seemed to feel the warmth of her palm, and after a few seconds, a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps outside the room, and the woman immediately opened her eyes vigilantly. She listened carefully to make sure that the footsteps were coming towards the room, and then ran to the mirror again and turned into a wisp of pink smoke into the mirror.
At this time, the sound of the door opening and the sound of the mirror falling down sounded at the same time, and Liu Yue, Mo Luochen, and Ai Xuanlian were the first to enter the room. Immediately afterwards, Kang Le and Liu Nan, the two team leaders, also followed.
As soon as she entered the door, Liu Yue looked in the direction of the mirror with alarm. Ai Xuanlian asked him, "What's wrong, master?" ”
Liu Yue stared at the mirror for a few seconds and then shook her head and said, "It's okay, it's me who is too sensitive." ”
After speaking, he led everyone to Wu Wei's bedside. Liu Yue first checked Wu Wei's breath and injuries, and after seeing that everything was normal, he seemed to be relieved. Then, Liu Yue turned to everyone and said, "You all go out, I want to heal Wu Wei alone." ”
The healing he said was actually a seal in Wu Wei's body. However, Kang Le and Liu Nan didn't understand, they saw that Liu Yue cared about Wu Wei yesterday and knew that he would not hurt Wu Wu, so this time they left the room obediently without doing anything to stop them.
After the two of them left, Liu Yue whispered to Mo Luochen and Ai Xuanlian: "I'm going to put a new seal into Wu Wei's body, this process will take about an hour, don't let anyone in during this time!" ”
After Liu Yue finished instructing, Ai Xuanlian asked with some concern, "What if that girl named Yuanmeng has to come in?" I'm afraid I won't be able to stop her! ”
At this time, Mo Luochen spoke first: "Don't worry, I can stop her, it's okay to not let her into the house for at least an hour." ”
Liu Yue took a deep look at Mo Luochen, patted him on the shoulder and said, "I believe in you!" ”
After speaking, Mo Luochen and Ai Xuanlian walked out of the room and closed the door and stood at the door. When there were only two people left in the room, Liu Yue and Wu Wei did not directly seal Wu Wei, but walked straight to the mirror.
He held up the mirror with one hand, and it was strange to say that the blood stains on the cracks in the mirror had disappeared. Liu Yue looked in the mirror, then took out a talisman with gossip from her cloth pocket and covered the mirror.
After doing this, he returned to Wu Wei and took out the magic weapons and charms needed for the seal.
Outside the door, Ai Xuanlian asked Mo Luochen: "Senior Brother Luochen, if you come back from Yuanmeng, you must enter the room, are you really sure to stop her?" When we were dealing with the water monster together in the Dark River, I had seen her strength, and it was so powerful that even my master said that he was not sure that he could defeat her. ”
Mo Luochen said lightly: "I haven't really fought with her, so I don't know her true strength, but I still know my own Taoism, as long as I do my best, there should be no problem." What's more, I feel that the female girl named Yuanmeng is not unreasonable, judging from her concern for Wu Wei, there is still a trace of humanity in the essence of that female girl. ”
Ai Xuanlian nodded, she remembered what happened when she and Yuan Meng explored the dark river together, so she also agreed with Mo Luochen's words.
However, at this time, when they were talking about Yuanmeng, Yuanmeng was standing at the exit of the Dark River, preparing to enter the Dark River again. She stood at the mouth of the dark river for a while, then took off the long red dress that Wu Wei had bought for her, changed into a tight-fitting pair of trousers, and then carefully folded the long skirt and placed it on a hidden stone on the shore.
Then, just listening to the sound of "poof", Yuanmeng jumped into the water without hesitation.
Swimming up the river stream, Yuanmeng swam into the depths of the dark river with ease, and when she came to the place where the water monsters gathered again, those water monsters smelled the smell of Yuanmeng from afar, and quickly swam to the bottom of the water to hide.
Yuanmeng also noticed them, but she didn't take these water monsters to heart, she came to the corpse that was chained underwater. So, he didn't make any stops during the dream and swam straight to the end of the water source.
It wasn't until there was no way out that Yuanmeng began to swim deeper, and after a while, he dived underwater.
Just below the end of the dark river, Yuan Meng found a few iron chains firmly fixed to the stone wall, she followed the iron chains all the way downstream, and finally saw the body that Qing Shao said near the bottom of the water.
The clothes on the corpse were long since rotted, but his hair was messy and fluttering in the water like aquatic weeds, and it was not corroded in the slightest. Strange to say, this corpse was obviously underwater, but it looked like a dried corpse.
The corpse's eyes were closed, and four sharp fangs were revealed from its open mouth, which was clearly visible from its appearance. His limbs, neck, and waist were chained as if he were being imprisoned under water.
Yuan Meng used all his strength to tear off several iron chains locked on the corpse, and without the confinement of the chains, the corpse began to slowly sink to the bottom of the water, but no corpse transformation occurred.
Yuan Meng grabbed the corpse, then tore off a chain and tied the corpse to his back, and began to swim back.
Yuan sleepwalked and felt something pulling her behind her, so she looked back and found that there were many water monsters behind her, and it was these water monsters pulling the corpses on her back just now.
It can be seen that these water monsters are afraid of Yuanmeng, and as soon as Yuanmeng turns around, these water monsters hurriedly hide back. But when Yuanmeng swam forward again, the water monsters surrounded her again, trying to snatch the body from her back.
Seeing this, Yuan Dream angrily turned into a human form and attacked the water monsters, and these water monsters knew that they couldn't beat her, so they didn't fight but scattered to dodge. After all, Yuanmeng's underwater speed is not as fast as the water monsters, so she can only swim out while turning back to drive away the water monsters.
When she was about to leave the monster gathering place with the body on her back, the monsters stopped snatching the body and began to attack the body in a frenzy. They kept biting at the corpse as if they were going crazy, and even in the face of Yuanmeng's attacks, they no longer dodged. In this way, Yuanmeng once again fought with the water monsters.
However, there are too many water monsters, even if Yuanmeng is not afraid of them, but a lot of flesh has been bitten off her body. The water monsters did not take the initiative to attack her, but frantically attacked the corpse on her back at every opportunity.
Yuanmeng knew that it was not a way to fight with the water monsters again, even if she was fine, her body would have to be torn apart by them. Therefore, after repelling a wave of water monsters, Yuanmeng no longer fell in love, but accelerated and swam out.
It took about half an hour before Yuanmeng left the range of the water monsters.
As she struggled to bring the body back to shore, she quickly placed it on the ground to see if he was missing arms or legs. Fortunately, although a lot of the flesh on the corpse was bitten to expose the bones, these important parts of the limbs were not missing.
Yuanmeng rested on the shore for a while, then changed his clothes and put on his long red dress. She wrapped the body in her clothes again, then tied him to her back again and left the Dark Estuary.
On the side of the mansion in the western suburbs, Liu Yue began to seal Wu Wei, and it has not been done for an hour until now. Mo Luochen and Ai Xuanlian waited anxiously outside the door, they didn't know where Liu Yue had progressed, and they didn't dare to enter the door to see the situation, so they could only be in a hurry.
After another half an hour, the sun was setting in the west, and evening was approaching. Suddenly, a scream came from the room, and everyone could hear that it was Wu Wei's voice. The people guarding the courtyard quickly gathered when they heard the shouts and wanted to rush in, but they were stopped by Mo Luochen.
Kang Le said: "It's been an afternoon, what the hell is going on inside? We'll have to go in and take a look! ”
Mo Luochen told him: "Wu You's body is so seriously injured, naturally it will take a little longer. He can now scream, which means that the healing is working, so you better wait! ”
After Mo Luochen finished speaking, several team leaders looked at each other, and finally Kang Le decided to say: "Then wait a little longer, they shouldn't do anything to Lord Wu Wei." ”
However, as soon as Kang Le's words fell, there was another shout of Wu Wei in the room, this time louder than just now, and even Mo Luochen had some doubts in his heart.
Ai Xuanlian also asked worriedly, "Do you want to go in and have a look?" ”
