47. He can't do without me for the time being
Professor Kim confirmed my suspicions, and the students, who had not believed me, began to quiet down.
"But the place where you found him is not where he really died." I analyzed, "When a person is cold to a certain extent, out of instinct, he will find a small and warm space to hide, and the vitality of the whole body, while the temperature continues to drop, converges towards the heart, but if it continues to develop like this, the whole person will lose consciousness in all the details, and the blood veins will continue to contract." ”
"But the blood veins are like springs, the tighter they are pressed, the tighter they are in the end, they bounce back all at once, and the blood that accumulates in the heart rushes to the limbs, and at that time, the person who is frozen to the extreme will have an illusion that he will feel that he is hot."
"Stripping for heat dissipation, this is the most intuitive reaction they can make at that time, which is also the so-called stripping effect."
"So, you mean that my student was frozen to death in the extreme cold, not burned to death by the fire?" Professor Jin made a conclusion, but obviously didn't believe my words, "Miss Meng, although it is late autumn now, it has not even snowed yet, where is the extremely cold place you said in this radius of a hundred miles?" ”
Yes, don't say it's our Lin'an Town, even if you look at the entire Lin'an City, you can't find such a place.
However, the dark marks on the corpse told me that my judgment could not be wrong.
If it is burned to death, the skin will be burned, discolored, and sticky, not to mention, the earth fire is not an ordinary fire, it is really burned to death by the earth fire, and it is almost impossible to leave such a complete corpse.
The dark lines on the corpse were obviously under extremely cold conditions, the whole skin quickly tightened and contracted, and then the corpse was thrown out again, and after gradually warming up, the skin began to expand rapidly.
The depth between the dark lines of the corpse's body and the gradation of color are the same, and the fire cannot reach such a state.
I firmly believe that my analysis is correct, and the reason why Professor Jin is suspicious is that he analyzes it from the perspective of the natural environment, but he does not know that there are many other situations in this world that want to create an extremely cold environment than nature.
Like hell.
For example, corpse farms.
If someone can raise an existence like a hungry ghost in this area, then it is not surprising that this cold place exists.
Moreover, if Professor Kim's students had an accident in this area, then it is possible that the place of the incident we are looking for is around here.
It's just that I can't say these words to Professor Kim, and they won't believe these so-called strange words.
I had to smile helplessly and said, "Maybe my analysis is wrong, but there is a sentence Professor Jin, you have to listen to me, evacuate here as soon as possible, and take the deceased back to return to the roots." ”
"You know what!" A boy angrily said to me, "Zhen Ji's tomb has a long history and is mysterious, if it can be studied thoroughly, it is likely to be an important chapter in promoting the development of history. ”
I shrugged my shoulders and said, "I'm just an ordinary person, I just know that living is the capital of struggle, and as for how you decide in the end, that's your business." ”
As soon as I walked out, Professor Jin caught up with me and asked me with a solemn face: "Miss Meng, please stay, I just want to ask, this piece ...... Isn't it restless? ”
Professor Jin asked very vaguely, but I understood what he meant, and nodded: "When you came, you must have passed through those two empty villages, and the people of the two villages disappeared for no reason, can't this kind of thing make you more vigilant?" ”
Do you also want to disappear into this world like those villagers?
I didn't say that, because I didn't want to cause them to panic too much.
Professor Jin groaned: "It seems ......"
"Help! Professor Kim ......"
Before Professor Jin could finish his sentence, there was a cry for help from inside the simple house, and the light bulb hanging outside was instantly extinguished, and I ran towards it.
Before I could enter the door, a cold wind whistled past me, and I turned and chased after me, and in the moonlight, I saw only a black shadow running towards the mass grave.
The black shadow moved too fast, I couldn't catch up at all, and I was afraid that something would happen to Professor Jin and them behind me, so I stopped, breathed a sigh of relief, and went back.
There was a false alarm, Professor Jin and the other four students were fine, they screwed the loose light bulb with all their hands, and when the light shrouded again, someone said, "Corpse...... What about corpses? ”
The corpse, which was originally wrapped in a white cloth, was now only a slippery white cloth, shrunk in a corner.
But if you look closely, you will see powdery objects scattered around the white cloth, which are supposed to be the powder left by the crushing of the bones.
That thing came over just now, it was the destruction of the corpse, and it didn't act before, but it did it now, is it because I'm here?
"Professor Kim......" The students' eyes were full of horror.
No matter how firm they were before, how much they threatened not to be afraid of death, it was because they thought that the male student before died from the earth fire, and the earth fire is rare once in a thousand years, and the chance of recurrence is very small, so they are not afraid.
But just now that thing suddenly appeared, evaded everyone's sight, and destroyed the corpse in an instant under everyone's noses, this horrific thing shocked them and made them completely panic.
Professor Jin waved his hand at that time and said, "Withdraw, retreat to the town first." ”
The students immediately packed up their things, and Professor Jin asked me, "Isn't Miss Meng going with you?" ”
"I ......" for a while I hesitated.
Originally, I was going to come here to look for Hu Dingtang, but I didn't expect to meet Professor Jin and them, and I encountered that thing just now, I was shocked before, but now that I think about it, isn't that black shadow the appearance of the hungry ghost gangrene I encountered before?
As soon as Professor Kim and they left, I ......
The main thing is that I can't be sure if Hu Dingtang is really here, and if he is not here, why should I take this risk?
It's just that if he's here, he'll be very weak tonight, and I'm afraid he won't be able to protect me from anything.
With that in mind, I said, "Let's leave together." ”
Professor Jin was obviously happy, scratching his head crampedly, and I suddenly understood: "Well, do you have a place to live in the town?" ”
"We came from Kyoto and went straight here without stopping in the town." Professor Kim said.
"I haven't been able to take a hot shower for days, and I'm very uncomfortable." The female classmate complained.
I hurriedly said, "Then you can spend the night with me, and then think about the rest tomorrow." ”
"That's really troublesome Miss Meng." Professor Kim said, and instead instructed the students, "Everyone hurry up and pack your things, and we'll leave in a moment." ”
They brought quite a lot of stuff, and Professor Jin and I just stood on the side talking, waiting for the big guy.
It was only five or six minutes before and after, and suddenly a female classmate shouted: "Du Hua, Du Hua seems to be gone." ”
"I was still here just now, did I pee?" Another male classmate said.
Everyone didn't dare to separate to find it, so they had to shout Du Hua's name in the same place, and after waiting for about ten minutes, they didn't see the boy named Du Hua come back.
Because of the previous incident, everyone began to panic, Professor Jin looked dead, these students were brought out by him, although they must have signed a military order before coming, but he couldn't bear the accident of such two psychologically.
"Miss Meng, you want to think of a way, please think of a way." Professor Kim was in a hurry to go to the doctor, and he began to beg me.
I can't even remember what Du Hua looks like, so what can I do to help him?
But then I thought that although the jade pendant that Hu Dingtang gave me tonight could not be used, I already had some internal strength in my own body, and maybe tracking individuals was not a problem.
"Is there still Du Hua's change of clothes? Especially the one he wore recently. I asked.
Soon, someone handed over a stinky sock and said, "This is what Du Hua just changed today, and he hasn't had time to wash it yet." ”
"I want a bowl, water, and fire."
Everyone was very cooperative, and soon what I wanted was placed in front of me, and I lit the sock, and with words in my mouth, I dropped the ashes from the sock into the bowl with water, and then I drew out the silver needle, and kept moving up and down in the water.
After saving up several times, the silver needle slowly stood in the middle of the water, and then, it began to tilt slightly, and finally, it was aimed at the direction of the mass grave.
"People are in mass graves." I said.
Everyone gasped, the body of the boy was found in the mass grave before, and now, if Du Hua is also in the mass grave, then the possibility of survival is very small.
"Professor Kim, you take the students first." I gritted my teeth.
Professor Jin was very embarrassed and hesitated: "Miss Meng, none of us can stay, let alone go to the mass grave, we have to go, and when we wait for tomorrow daytime, let's find more people to go together." ”
"Let's go, I'm afraid that if you don't leave now, you won't be able to leave later." I pushed Professor Jin and said, "Don't you all know that I, Meng Jiushang, have a lot of ability, and what you can't do doesn't mean I can't do it, and you will only make trouble for me if you stay." ”
As I spoke, I took off the key that had been hanging around my neck and handed it to Professor Jin, saying, "You said that you went to my shop to look for me before, then you must know where I live, this is the key, you go back and wait for me first, I will be back soon." ”
Professor Jin was reluctant to take the key, so I persuaded again: "If you don't think about yourself, you have to think about these students of yours, if you can bring them out, you must have certain expectations for their future, can you bear to let them be wiped out here?" ”
Professor Jin glanced at the remaining three students, two of whom were still female students, and were already so frightened that they were clinging to each other, as if something would suddenly run out and take them away.
In the end, Professor Jin compromised, took the key and said, "Miss Meng, thank you, you must be careful. ”
With that, they quickly left.
I looked at their backs and sighed, I don't know if it will go well on the way back, if I don't come tonight, maybe the thing won't move so fast.
I glanced back at the ancient tomb, and then looked in the direction of the mass grave, and for a while I couldn't decide whether to go to find Hu Dingtang first, or go to the mass grave to find Du Hua first.
At that moment, behind my right, there was a sound of footsteps, and I looked back in shock to see a woman running straight towards me.
In the blink of an eye, she was in front of me, reached out and pushed me hard, and said angrily, "What are you doing! What the hell are you doing again! ”
"Hu Yunxi, you are here." When I saw Hu Yunxi and the people behind her, I was sure that Hu Dingtang must be in the ancient tomb tonight.
He really still needs to retreat and cultivate in the old place, and Hu Yunxi loves him so much, he will definitely not let him retreat here without defense at such a critical moment, Hu Yunxi appeared here to protect Hu Dingtang.
"What's so strange about me here, but you, why are you here?" Hu Yunxi has always been at odds with me, crossed his waist and said, "Please stay away from the third brother and don't make any more trouble for him, okay?" ”
"Hu Yunxi, calm down." I reached out and grabbed her two arms and said, "Now you have two choices, one is to take me to see Hu Dingtang, I know that he is in the ancient tomb, if you don't take me, I can also go to him myself; The other is that if you help me go to a mass grave and find a male student who has been abducted, as long as I find it, I will immediately get away. ”
"Meng Jiushang, do you want to have a face? Which onion are you that dare to instruct me so loudly? Hu Yunxi was furious.
I said unusually calmly: "I don't have much time to mess with you, I'll give you three seconds to think about it, choose one of the two." ”
“1!”
"Shut up, you shut up for me!" Hu Yunxi reached out to cover my mouth, and I tilted my head to dodge, "2! ”
"You!" Hu Yunxi was annoyed by me, and an internal force condensed on his fingertips, and he was about to insert it into my eyebrows.
I looked at her motionlessly, and said coldly: "Do you believe that if you insert it and injure or kill me, your third brother will never look at you from now on?" ”
Hu Yunxi's fingertips were firmly above my eyebrows, and I continued: "Killing me is equivalent to cutting off all the future of your most beloved third brother, Hu Yunxi, do you think it's worth it?" ”
Hu Yunxi shook off his hand fiercely, raised it again, pointed at me and shouted: "Meng Jiushang, you can't be proud for a few days, don't use chicken feathers as an arrow, my third brother won't like people like you." ”
"It doesn't matter if your third brother likes me or not." I sneered, "The important thing is that he can't do without me for the time being." ”
"......" Hu Yunxi was so angry with me that he couldn't speak.
In the end, she still raised her feet and went to the mass grave, and I quickly followed.
Hu Yunxi turned around impatiently and continued to yell at me: "What are you doing with me!" ”
"I can't let you die for me alone, I'm a good person, I have to protect you."
Hu Yunxi looks sweet and calm on the outside, but in fact, she is very anxious inside, especially when it comes to Hu Dingtang, it is even more difficult for her to calm down.
I can use Hu Dingtang to pinch her, but I'm also afraid that if something happens to her because of me, the entire fox clan will be able to eat me alive, and I still have this understanding.
So I have to follow, even if something happens, I won't be spared, and no one will dare to blame me for half a word then.
Hu Yunxi sneered at me, turned his head away, buried his head in walking, and soon we were in a mass grave.
The entire mass grave was empty, and at a glance, nothing could be found.
And I also understand that at this time, Du Hua could not stay in a conspicuous position, if unfortunate, now he is curled up in a corner, waiting to be frozen to death.
Hu Yunxi just glanced at it and said, "There's nothing here, you can get out now, right?" ”
"Hu Yunxi, do you think I'm such a foolish person?" I said calmly, "You are not a three- or two-year-old young fox, your cultivation skills are very good, close your eyes and feel it carefully, where is the heaviest place in this piece of yin qi." ”
"This is a mass grave, everywhere is yin qi, what else can you let me find in this layer of yin qi? Meng Jiushang, are you deliberately fixing me! Hu Yunxi continued to get angry.
I reached out and pressed her shoulder, trying to calm her down, and said, "Most, you know this word, right?" Hu Yunxi, you helped me tonight, you are my benefactor, I, Meng Jiusheng, am no longer unreasonable, and I will still have the awe I should have for my benefactor. ”
What Hu Yunxi wants most now is to completely subdue me, let me listen to her, and I can't wait to isolate me from Hu Dingtang for 108,000 miles.
Reaching out to pull my fingers away, I pinched the finger of the sword with my right hand, and a light blue light appeared on the tip of the finger of the sword, against the center of her eyebrows, and her eyes were closed, as if she was feeling something.
There was a slight wind blowing around, and Hu Yunxi's body was slowly rotating with the direction of the wind, and finally, she stopped in the northwest, she opened her eyes suddenly, and said to me: "If I'm not mistaken, the heaviest place of yin qi in this piece should be in the northwest corner." ”
In the northwest corner, a month ago, my grandmother and I were buried in the big pit in the northwest corner, where so many corpses were buried, and there was a lot of resentment.
"Okay, I've already done everything for you, next, please ......"
"You come with me."
Before Hu Yunxi's words were finished, I grabbed her shoulder tightly and rushed towards the northwest.
Hu Yunxi didn't expect me to be like this, and immediately screamed: "Crazy, Meng Jiusheng, you are really crazy!" ”
I didn't say a word, I just knew that I had to drag Hu Yunxi over with me to find out if Du Hua was in that corpse pit.
Seeing that the corpse pit was already close at hand, a slender and powerful hand blocked us in the horizontal thorn, and then, a suppressed and low voice sounded: "You two are looking for death!" All day long, can you save people snacks! ”
