43. The task given to me
Xiao Jinyu said while leading us into the house, the big guy was familiar with the door, and soon arrived at the courtyard where the seventh aunt lived, and as soon as he entered the courtyard gate, he really heard Lu Youcai's cry.
"Miss Meng, listen, Brother Lu is a tough guy, it's not hurt to a certain extent, he will never shout like this, if you have a way, save him quickly." Xiao Jinyu rubbed her hands and begged me vigorously.
My mind was very confused at the time, I didn't expect things to develop like this all of a sudden, and waved my hand again and again: "Don't talk yet, let me think about it." ”
These things of the Lu family can actually be strung together from beginning to end, from Lu Youcai being trapped by a female ghost in the tomb twenty years ago, to the fact that none of his aunts and wives could give birth to children, and now, the matter of snow clams, this is actually a cause and effect.
Thinking of this, I asked, "Has the subordinate who sent to check the forest frog come back?" ”
"I'm back." The butler replied, "We are a step late, and we have just been hung in the woods by someone in our hometown through the eyes with a wire of iron, and we are bloody but we have not yet died, but we will not survive if we are saved." ”
Of course, you can't live, the iron wire passes through the two eyes, and it also passes through the brain, even if you are lucky enough to survive, it is better to live than to die, why bother?
Although this result is cruel, it is consistent with what happened to us before, the subordinate who sent Lin Frog, and even the old man who provided the seventh aunt with a home remedy, their identities need to be considered.
Now, no one dares to say what is going on in Aunt Seven's room, but they can probably imagine something.
"Miss Meng, what should I do?" Mrs. Wu is also helpless, in the final analysis, she is just a matchmaker with a little magic skills, she has some merits, and she has some skills in arranging formations, but it is really unrealistic to go straight to her too much.
My mind was in a mess, and I couldn't just rush into the room.
The jade pendant that Hu Dingtang gave me did inject his mana, but it was not endless, I had already used it once on the road just now, and it consumed a lot, so I didn't dare to squander it at will.
Contacting the scene of our previous attack, the fate of the forest frogman and the symptoms of the seventh aunt, they all have one thing in common, that is, the other party's methods of harming others are consistent.
And now it's in Aunt Seven's room, and Lu Youcai is pulled in, why?
It wants Lu Youcai to fulfill the oath he made in the tomb back then.
When the coachman came to pick us up before, he mentioned that after we left, Aunt Seven's stomach suddenly moved, and I also speculated that Aunt Seven may have really had a fetus in her belly, or maybe it had become a young dead corpse, or that thing was not a normal fetus in the first place.
This thing slowly evolved in the belly of the seventh aunt, devouring the essence of the seventh aunt, and it should have waited until the moment when the natural melon was ripe, but I never thought that it would be exposed if it didn't succeed, this is to give birth to the fetus from the body of the seventh aunt in advance.
Born?
Why did you want to go in when you were born?
This thought flashed through my mind, and I suddenly realized that twenty years ago, the thing that caught Lu Youcai may have been following Lu Youcai in some way and never left.
Maybe it's a wisp of remnant soul, or maybe it's a little spirit......
In short, that thing tried its best to make the seventh aunt Taizhu's womb secretly knotted, but it may not be complete, it has to get the missing part back from Lu Youcai's body, piece together the original whole, and come to this world completely.
This possibility is very high, so as long as Lu Youcai can still hold on, then we still have a chance to destroy that thing.
I gritted my teeth and prepared to rush into the room, thinking that even if I used up the mana in the jade pendant, I wouldn't be able to let that thing inside succeed.
Just as I was about to act, the sound of Suosuo came from underground, and then the sound of a fight came from the room of the seventh aunt.
Everyone looked at Aunt Qi's room in surprise, not knowing what was going on.
Rumble!
With a muffled sound, a door fell outside, and a hand stretched out from inside the threshold, clutching the threshold and trying to climb out.
"It's Brother Lu!" Xiao Jinyu said that she was about to rush forward, trying to drag Lu Youcai out of the threshold.
I grabbed Xiao Jinyu and shook my head at him: "You can't drag it, but you may be dragged into it by the thing inside, wait and see." ”
Before I finished my words, the hand on the threshold, the knuckles turned white little by little, slowly detached from the threshold, and disappeared on the threshold with Lu Youcai's cry of pain.
The housekeeper yelled at me on the side: "Miss Meng, what are you still hesitating about, do you have any way to save people?" ”
"Wait." I said with my eyes fixed on the door of Aunt Seven's room.
"Wait, wait a little longer, and my lieutenant will die." The housekeeper was clearly disappointed in me.
At the beginning, they put almost all their hopes on me, but now they are in a hurry to see that I don't make a move at the critical moment.
As soon as the housekeeper waved his hand, more than a dozen sturdy people in black appeared around, Lu Youcai's former status, it was normal to raise some people in the family, as soon as they appeared, they rushed towards the room without hesitation.
But in the next moment, seven or eight people were pushed out by a powerful air flow at the same time, slammed into the ground fiercely, and curled up in pain.
I shrugged helplessly, if force alone could solve the problem, this matter would not really be that serious.
The housekeeper was dumbfounded, and the big guy stared at him, completely unsure of what to do.
I stared at the room for a long time, discerning the sound of the fight inside, and I was almost sure that something had entered Aunt Seven's room and was helping us, but I wasn't sure who the other party was and whether it could really help us.
Just when I was puzzled, outside the door, someone hurriedly walked in, I looked back, and saw Hu Yunzhi carrying the coachman who had picked us up before into the yard and threw the person on the ground.
The moment I saw Hu Yunzhi, I suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that the people in Aunt Qi's room should be the people from the Hu Mansion.
I patted my head and laughed at myself.
We took Lu Youcai's order, in the name of Mrs. Wu, Mrs. Wu is already Hu Dingtang's disciple, so her every move represents Hu Dingtang, how could he allow Mrs. Wu to ruin the reputation of the Hu Mansion?
So, no matter what I do or not, there will be someone to help with the aftermath, what am I worried about?
Hu Dingtang, a stinky guy, obviously thought about everything, but he didn't explain anything to me clearly, which made me worry for a long time.
Hu Yunzhi walked over and smiled at me, "Miss Meng, we meet again." ”
"yes, but this time we should be a partnership, right?" I said.
"Yes, partnership." Hu Yunzhi looked at me and said, "I was delayed on the way here, fortunately you were not impulsive, otherwise something would have happened, and I really wouldn't have been able to explain it to my third brother." ”
"What's not easy to explain, you and his double reed, singing is not ordinarily good." I teased.
Hu Yunzhi immediately reacted to what I said before, and sneered: "Miss Meng, my third brother is very good. ”
"I don't know if he's good or not, I just know that his city is too deep, and I can't play him." I said, looking toward the door.
At that time, the movement in Aunt Seven's room seemed to be much smaller, and I had seen the girl who came out of it, if I remember correctly, the girl's name was Hu Yunxi.
The sixth sister who has made a lot of clothes for Hu Dingtang since she was a child.
It turned out that she brought her subordinates to help solve the problem.
Hu Yunxi came straight to us, and Hu Yunzhi opened his mouth and asked, "Sixth sister, how is it?" ”
Hu Yunxi didn't answer Hu Yunzhi's question, walked up to me, looked at me viciously, suddenly raised his hand, and slapped me hard.
Her movements were so sudden that I didn't have time to hide, but fortunately, Hu Yunyi reached out and held Hu Yunxi's hand.
"Brother, you let go of me!" Hu Yunxi struggled to pull his hand out, "This woman who doesn't know the height of the sky, why does she repeatedly provoke the third brother, she stays by the third brother's side, she will only cause trouble for the third brother." ”
"Sixth sister, Miss Meng is the third brother's person, and the third brother doesn't dislike her for stabbing Lou Zi, why do you dislike her?" Hu Yunzhi asked, "It's that you have been arrogant during this time, so you should have restrained your temperament so as not to make the third brother angry." ”
Hu Yunxi shook off Hu Yunzhi's hand and glanced at me angrily.
Hu Yunzhi flattered again: "Our sixth sister is the most knowledgeable, by the way, what is the situation inside." ”
"What else can it be, provoke unclean things." Hu Yunxi said disdainfully.
"Something unclean?" Hu Yunzhi asked, "What is it?" ”
"Snow clam essence." Hu Yunxi said, "According to the results of our previous investigation and everything we saw in the room just now, we have already determined. ”
"This thing came out of the tomb, and it was cultivated in response to the resentment of the snow clam after absorbing a large amount of corpse qi." Hu Yunxi explained, "Twenty years ago, it had been living in the body of a certain corpse in the tomb, and it had cultivated to a certain extent, and it happened that Lu Youcai passed by, so it became entangled with Lu Youcai. ”
"Through some methods, it integrated a wisp of its own primordial spirit into Lu Youcai's body, and it has been parasitic in Lu Youcai's body, slowly cultivating, and its body is still in the tomb, after twenty years, it finally rushed out."
"Sure enough, it was very similar to what I expected." I took over and said, "It just wants to take back what belongs to Lu Youcai now, and then fuse it to help it break through its confinement and get a new life." ”
"It has endured for twenty years, just to use the medium of Lu Youcai to successfully get rid of the big tomb and the host it parasitizes, once it is born today, what will happen next, I really can't imagine."
"If you don't have any ability, of course you're afraid, but that doesn't mean everyone is afraid." Hu Yunxi ridiculed me and said, "Just a snow clam essence, I don't care about it yet, I can take it soon, if it weren't for the third brother's special explanation, I wouldn't let you mix it up at all!" ”
"That's enough, Yoon-hee!" Hu Yunzhi reprimanded, and Hu Yunxi glanced at me aggrieved and unwillingly.
At this time, the seventh aunt's room had returned to calm, and only some low moans were heard, which sounded particularly painful.
Hu Yunxi was the first to enter the room, and I followed closely.
In the room, Lu Youcai was huddled in the corner of the wall with bruises all over his body, his eyes were very complicated, a little frightened, but more, it seemed to be a kind of hatred.
When we entered, he suddenly opened his mouth and roared at us twice, it seems that the thing hiding in his body has finally appeared, Lu Youcai is not its opponent, and the whole consciousness is about to be monopolized by it.
On the bed, Aunt Seven was tied up by five flowers, her body was very straight, and her stomach, which was originally big and hard, was constantly agitating at the moment, and with every agitation, Aunt Seven's whole body would be spasmed, which was particularly painful.
"What are you doing standing stupidly, waiting for me to invite you!" Hu Yunxi's tone was very unkind, and as he spoke, he walked to the bedside of the seventh aunt, pressed the part that was agitating with one hand, and looked at me.
I was really a little stunned at the time, because it was obvious that the snow clam essence had been controlled by Hu Yunxi's people, and it was easy to kill the snow clam essence, but why did I have to do it in the end?
"Come on, Miss Meng, take out your silver needle and prick it with one needle." Hu Yunzhi said more bluntly, "Don't be afraid, we will all help you." ”
"I'm not afraid." As I spoke, I pulled out the silver needle, stepped forward in a few steps, and with the precision of the strength of my hand, pierced the needle towards the agitation.
But then the agitation ran to the other side, but the agitation was much less, and I drew the silver needle and plunged it towards the other drum point.
The unpleasant smell of corpse oil rushed to my nose, I covered my mouth and nose with one hand, and kept piercing with the other, Hu Yunxi disliked me even more on the side: "It's so difficult to do this little thing, I really don't know how a person like you can get into our hall." ”
I bit my lip and automatically blocked her words, and when the fifth needle went down, I only felt the green tendons on my wrist tighten suddenly, and the silver needle kept shaking, and a cold breath followed the silver needle and went straight into my body.
I subconsciously wanted to withdraw my hand, but Hu Yunzhi hurriedly said: "Miss Meng, don't let go, the critical moment has come." ”
What is the key moment?
The thing under my silver needle is obviously running out of qi, but what does it mean that cold qi is drilling straight into my body?
What's even more terrifying is that after those cold qi entered my body, I felt very comfortable all over my body, and I felt that at that moment, I was back in the underworld, back to the days of silent cultivation in the Yin Division.
By the time the silver needles stopped shaking and the cold aura disappeared, Aunt Seven's stomach had already deflated, and under her body, a large pool of disgusting corpse oil soaked half of her body, and her body twitched and twitched, and after a while, it actually produced a large mass of black things.
That must be what she left over from her October pregnancy, right?
The seventh aunt was already unconscious, but on the side, Lu Youcai was still staring at me viciously, as if he wanted to eat me alive.
I didn't say anything, but Hu Yunxi had already walked over, kicked Lu Youcai's body, and shouted: "Look at what, I'll clean you up later!" ”
Hu Yunzhi looked at me helplessly and said, "Miss Meng, my sixth sister is really spoiled by us, don't be weird, don't laugh." ”
"It's fine." My lips trembled and my hands shook as I said this.
The cold aura that had entered my body before was running through my veins, making me feel like I was about to explode.
I understand this feeling that the cold qi is scurrying in the human body, and it needs to be transformed into internal force by a specific method, pressed into the dantian, and then used by me.
I've been cultivating in the underworld for so many years, and my cultivation level is still quite high, so I know everything about how to transform and how to use my mind.
That's a great thing for me, but what I don't understand is, why is this happening?
"Miss Meng, our task is complete, we have to go back to the third brother to return to life, and the rest will be handed over to you." Hu Yunzhi said.
I hurriedly asked, "This is not solved yet, why do you have to leave?" ”
"We can't solve the next thing, but Miss Meng may be able to give it a try." Hu Yunzhi smiled mysteriously and said, "The third brother has confidence in you." ”
After speaking, Hu Yunzhi led a group of people to leave.
I stood where I was, unable to understand Hu Yunzhi's words, but what Hu Dingtang had said to me before suddenly flashed in my mind - everything may depend on me.
Hu Yunxi can obviously solve the problem, why do I have to get the last shot?
After piercing my body, this cold breath appeared, where did this thing come from? It's the snow clam spirit!
So, it was the essence of the snow clam essence ingested into my body that caused this series of changes?
Yes, it must be!
After I borrowed my body to return to my soul, my body was like being locked, and it was not suitable for cultivation at all, I needed a noble person to help me open this lock, and now, Hu Dingtang seems to be playing the role of this lockpicker.
He's helping me, really helping me!
I couldn't hold back the ecstasy in my heart, for so many days, because I couldn't cultivate, it brought me a lot of frustration, and from now on, my body has changed.
I wish I could sit on the ground immediately and transform the cold qi that was running around in my veins into internal force, but not now.
Because just when I was stunned, the housekeeper had already rushed in with people, and they saw that the overall situation had been decided, and wanted to help Lu Youcai out and help him clean his wounds.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they stepped forward, Lu Youcai was like a crazy wild dog, catching someone and biting whom, and the room immediately became a mess.
There are still snow clam essences in Lu Youcai's body, and only by stripping it out of Lu Youcai's body can Lu Youcai truly return to normal.
And how to peel it off, this is the task left to me by Hu Dingtang.
