CHAPTER 9 CHAPTER XVI
The bloated old woman in front of Fu Jing had an extremely frightened face, and her whole body gradually turned into a puddle of water stains starting from her head and withdrew from the kitchen.
Fu Jing's tense body immediately relaxed after the threat of death was lifted, and his right hand used all the remaining strength to turn off the faucet behind him, and the whole person sat down on the cold and damp ground, staring at the ground with both eyes, and couldn't believe what happened tonight in his head.
However, Fu Jing didn't know that at this moment, the faucet behind him, which was not completely closed, was still slowly dripping drops of water.
"Tick, tick!"
Although the sound of dripping water in the quiet and closed kitchen was very crisp, Fu Jing, who had just walked at the door of the underworld, had not fully reacted.
The drops of water dripping in the pool did not flow into the pipes, but wriggled as if they were alive, climbing up the walls of the pool like reptiles and appearing on the edge of the pool above Fu Jing's head.
"Tick!"
The water droplets dripped very accurately on the center of Fu Jing's head, and suddenly a chill soaked into Fu Jing's brain, but it was also accompanied by a feeling of paralysis throughout the body, causing the whole person to fall directly to the ground and lose control of the body.
However, Fu Jing's eyes can see clearly, and the hearing in both ears is also zài, and his consciousness is still clear.
"Can't you move your body?"
Just when Fu Jing was in extreme surprise, his body stood up from the ground uncontrollably, and moved step by step towards the outside of the old man's house.
I couldn't open the door no matter how hard I hit it with my body, but when I walked in front of the closed door, my hands stretched out, and streams of water flowed down my fingertips and soaked into the cracks in the door.
"Crunch!" The door was pushed open with his own hands very lightly.
"Where are you taking me?"
Fu Jing walked uncontrollably on the street, and as he walked casually on the street, the empty houses on both sides of the road that were originally empty suddenly lit up with blue lights. Then the window opened. Inside, a pair of dark blue eyes were staring at the uncontrollable body, as if they were possessed.
"Body...... Why is this happening? ”
In this uncomfortable situation of not being able to control his body, Fu Jing suddenly recalled the story that the old man had told him in the afternoon.
"It's hard to do! Could it be that I was chosen to be a sacrifice and take me to the Huang River? ”
No matter how strong Fu Jing's sense of survival is at this moment, as a mortal, he can't compete with what is attached to his body.
Soon walked out along a side gate in Pingxuan Township, and in Fu Jing's ears, he could already hear the sound of gurgling water coming from the other end of the dark forest in front of him.
"I don't ...... I don't want to die......"
Fu Jing's state at this time was the most painful, conscious. Sight and sound are retained.
Knowing the result of his death, he watched himself step by step towards death. Thinking that his head would be cut off in a few moments, Fu Jing's spirit was on the verge of collapse during this long journey, and every step was accompanied by endless torture.
Trampling through the woods, you can already see a clear stream flowing slowly about two hundred meters ahead. The moonlight sprinkled on the water would be a beautiful night scene if it weren't for such an eerie background.
Fu Jing's pupils had been staring at each other in the long torment, and blood threads were clinging to his eyeballs. Now Fu Jing's heart would rather die soon, and he didn't want this kind of mental pain and torture at all.
When I was about to get close to the river. In addition to the clearer sound of running water, his eardrum was also mixed with the faint sound of a brazier burning paper.
Fu Jing's eyes closed and opened.
There was nothing beside the river, but there was a withered old man squatting on the ground, and there was a gold leaf basin in front of the old man, and the fire was burning inside, and the old man was handing the red banknotes in his hand to the brazier.
Zhang ...... Uncle. ”
Fu Jing quickly recognized that it was Uncle Zhang who rented his house according to the other party's figure and side face, and the paper money burned in his hand was not a dark coin, but a thousand yuan in cash that Fu Jing gave to the old man this afternoon.
Unfortunately, the route taken by his body happened to pass in front of Uncle Zhang. When he got closer and closer to Uncle Zhang, Fu Jing's transcendent observation found out. There are no cuts on Uncle Zhang's neck like the old woman before, and the whole person does not have the bloated appearance of being soaked in water for too long.
"Young man......" A voice suddenly sounded in Fu Jing's ears.
"Don't hesitate for a while, get out of here, don't look back, don't stop. Get out of here, the farther away the better. ”
At this point in the old man's words. Fu Jing walked to the side of the brazier.
Suddenly, the old man's crouching body suddenly jumped up, his withered face had already corroded to the point of being riddled with holes, and saprophytes were crawling inside and constantly wriggling.
However, when the old man's thin palm grabbed Fu Jing, there was no touch, and the old man passed directly through Fu Jing's body.
At the moment of passing. Fu Jing's body belonged to him immediately.
With Uncle Zhang's previous hints, he didn't care about anything, Fu Jing burst out of the potential of his whole body and immediately stayed away from the river. When Fu Jing, who had run for about 100 meters, turned around, it turned out that where he was, Uncle Zhang's whole body was covered with a layer of clear water, and then he was dragged into the river by his pale arms.
"Uncle Zhang......"
Fu Jing couldn't help muttering in his grateful mood, and then the whole person ran barefoot on the road to Hengshui City wearing a thin shirt. I don't know how far I ran, in short, the Pingxuan Township behind him has almost disappeared from sight.
…………
"When I woke up, I was already lying in the hospital in Hengshui City, and it was the minibus that passed through this path to Hengshui City the next morning that found me lying in the middle of the road, and then sent me back to Hengshui City."
In the bar, Fu Jing, who was in much better spirits, told all the encounters he had with his trip to Pinghui Township - Zhang Chen.
"It seems that the ghost saved you in the end, but after you returned, you were still entangled, after all, the other party is a distance away from Hengshui City, and it can only continue to affect your thinking until you have a mental breakdown and then lead you back to Pinghui Township."
"It looks like you haven't drunk water in a long time, soak up some water to refuel."
As Zhang Chen spoke, when he pushed a glass full of water in his hand in front of Fu Jing, his whole person was so frightened that he curled up in the corner, his eyes full of fear for this glass of water.
In the past week, Fu Jing has been ingesting water from fruits, as long as it is white water, whether it is released from the faucet or bottled mineral water, Fu Jing is very scared and afraid.
"Don't be afraid, there is nothing wrong with this glass of water, if you want to get completely better, you must first overcome the fear in your heart."
Zhang Chen motioned for Fu Jing to take the initiative to come over and drink the glass of water.
The latter looked at Zhang Chen with timid eyes, and then at the water in the cup, and the whole body began to slowly move back to his seat.
"Drink it." Zhang Chen wanted to see the determination of the reporter in front of him, if he could do it, maybe this guy would be better than Feng Xiaofeng to lure out the guy hiding in the river.
"It's a big deal to die, die early, at least you can be freed sooner."
Fu Jing suddenly figured it out in his head, picked up the water cup in front of him, poured it into his mouth and swallowed it.
"How? The water tastes good, right? ”
"Anything else? I still want to drink. ”
Fu Jing, who hadn't drunk water for seven days, usually got this glass of water again, and the desire for water in his heart began to be stimulated. Immediately after that, more than ten glasses of water went down to his stomach, and Zhang Chen on the side was shocked.
"You're going to Pinghu Township, right? I'll go with you! ”
Zhang Chen hadn't proposed to let Fu Jing go with him, but he didn't expect the latter to directly offer to take the initiative to follow.
"Oh? Aren't you afraid of death? Zhang Chen asked rhetorically.
"Afraid of death? I'm almost dying. I don't think it's up to anyone else to decide whether to live or die, take me with you, please. Fu Jing, who was sitting opposite, seemed to have come back from the dead, and his spirit was almost back to his normal level.
"Yes, I just don't have a guide. Later, we will meet up with our two friends and go with me to Pinghui Township. I'll keep you safe along the way, but there's one thing you need to promise me. ”
"I can say anything."
"When the time comes, no matter what situation you encounter, you can't give me half a step back, you have to do whatever I tell you to do. Because useless people, I don't need at all. ”
"Daxian, I promise."
When Fu Jing called Zhang Chen 'Great Immortal', he was also laughing, stood up and patted Fu Jing on the shoulder.
"Let's go."
…………
4:00 p.m
Zhang Chen was sitting in a café in the central area, and Worm Ying and Feng Xiaofeng arrived one after another.
The information collected by the insect firefly was all within the scope of Zhang Chen's knowledge, but Feng Xiaofeng was a little surprised to Zhang Chen, this guy actually found the prison envoy base in Hengshui City, and found a lot of information about what happened in Pinghui Township back then, and even some information about the so-called 'river god'.
"Is the form different from one period to another? Needless to say, the ability to water and illusion are somewhat similar to Fu Jing's description. It's just that this parasite doesn't have a ghostly spirit, an ordinary creature parasitic? Or is it some other means of manipulation? ”
At this moment, a voice sounded in the depths of Zhang Chen's mind
"Zhang Chen, now there are nine layers of certainty that nothing can go wrong. The name of the thing stored in Pinghui Township is - Jingfeng. Your idea is correct, using this leashed ordinary person and this weak first-level prison master as bait, as long as the crystal is alive, it will inevitably be lured out by you. ”
Wang Yizhi's words made Zhang Chen nod.
"Let's go." (To be continued......)
