Chapter 9 Crossing the Dead

Yuan Rui lay on the ground, not daring to take a breath.

The huge locust demon in front of him didn't seem to have taken shape yet, but it was the size of a child. On the body of this locust demon, there are also traces of internal organs that fly out of Xi'er's body. The emerald green body was washed away by the heavy rain, but it couldn't wash away the sin.

The scene was extremely bloody, but all the Taoist priests present did not frown, as if they had already turned a blind eye.

They took out water from the lotus pond beside them and poured it on the locust demon's body, as if praying for the blessing of the newborn monster.

The locust demon's two huge tentacles flew up and down, and it suddenly turned its head back, and two huge mouthparts bit down fiercely on Xi'er's stump.

At this moment, Yuan Rui was cold all over his body.

The monster that was born from Xi'er's belly turned its head and began to frantically eat Xi'er's body.

Xi'er's eyes had dimmed, and her young body was tumbling up and down as the locusts frantically gnawed.

Yuan Rui wants to escape from here.

The sound of prayer outside came into the backyard, but with an extraordinary contrast, it was reflected in the young man's mind.

It is human instinct to stay away from danger.

Some people may be able to remain calm when they encounter real danger, but the vast majority of people are completely panicked.

Yuan Rui took a step back, and he already regretted it a little, because behind him, there was a pothole, and a pool of water had already accumulated.

Feet stepped on it, and suddenly there was a sound of water splashing and rattling.

"Someone in the grass!" A Taoist priest shouted.

Yuan Rui's entire body stopped, and his body was extremely frightened. He knew that he couldn't escape, and even if he got out of the dog hole, he would be caught by the Taoist priests outside.

In the corner where he was, countless horrific scenes were already floating in his head.

He was held down by the Taoist priests, and the chains were entangled in his feet, making him unable to move. He could only wail in pain, but no one paid any attention to him. The huge monster crawled out of his stomach little by little, and then began to tear at his internal organs.

The sound of footsteps in the rain has begun to gradually approach.

Click!

Click!

Click!

The sound of heavy footsteps, each one of which stepped on his heart, made his heart tremble. The sound of footsteps, stepping in the splash, makes people crazy from the bottom of their hearts.

The bushes were opened by them, and several Taoist priests found Yuan Rui hiding in the grass.

"So there's a kid hiding here!" The Taoist priest's voice was cold, as if it did not carry the slightest emotion.

Several powerful hands grabbed Yuan Rui's arm fiercely and grabbed him out of the grass.

Xi'er's experience is still vivid, and now that it has reached the last moment of threatening his life, Yuan Rui finally let out an unwilling roar and began to struggle.

However, his struggle pale in front of several adult Taoist priests. Those Taoist priests didn't seem surprised by Yuan Rui's struggle, and even felt some joy.

They kicked Yuan Rui to the ground, and the backyard of the Locust Temple was not paved with stone bricks, so it was all muddy land. Yuan Rui was dragged to the ground, and his whole body was suddenly covered in muddy soil.

The Taoist priests pressed Yuan Rui on the stone platform that looked like an altar, and the huge mouthparts of the locust demon were dangling around Yuan Rui, looking very infiltrating.

Yuan Rui's face turned pale with fright, and he didn't dare to move.

The Taoist priests suddenly intervened and held down the locust demon, and one Taoist priest said, "Lead it away, don't let it go crazy." ”

There was a Taoist priest carrying an incense burner, and the smoke in it gradually began to spread around, this aroma seemed to have a fatal attraction to the locust, and soon the locust demon ignored Yuan Rui and followed the Taoist priest away.

The Taoist priests saw heavy chains tied to Yuan Rui's wrists and ankles. Yuan Rui felt fear, so he began to scream with all his might.

"Help, help...... Ahem, help! ”

Yuan Rui shouted a few times, and was heavily stepped on his stomach by a Taoist priest, and his whole body was bent like a shrimp.

The screams fell in the front hall of the locust temple, and everyone still worshipped the locust god, fearing that the locust god would notice that he was being distracted.

Yuan Rui's voice began to become hoarse, his voice was drowned out by the sound of the rain, and his face had begun to blur, not just rain or tears.

Yuan Rui turned his head with difficulty, and he saw Xi'er's remnant.

Xi'er's petite body had been shattered, and only some stumps and severed arms remained, and the Taoist priests threw those stumps into a dirt pit as if they were sweeping garbage.

The pit was deep, and it was filled with children's heads.

There were three children in Yunyang County, but apparently, these people also did something to others.

The dead children's eyes were either wide open or indifferent, all with a dead silence. It was as if they were looking at another dead man, to keep them company.

The rows of heads rendered this backyard like Shura hell.

Why is it so dark on this day?

Yuan Rui looked at the sky and let the icy rain hit his face.

After his father died, he was left with only two friends, and now both of his friends are dead.

The world of children is very small, and there are often only a few people living there. Now, several people have left him.

Boom! Boom!

Those Taoist priests held sticks in their hands and smashed Yuan Rui's body a few times, Yuan Rui felt that his whole body was numb, and blood was spilling out of his nose and mouth uncontrollably.

The Taoist priests took a wooden box from the depths of the courtyard and slowly opened it, and there was a black pill inside.

The two Taoist priests broke Yuan Rui's mouth, and one of them stuffed the pill into Yuan Rui's mouth. As soon as the elixir entered his mouth, it seemed to be alive, and instantly rushed into Yuan Rui's throat.

The surroundings suddenly became much quieter, and the Taoist priests stood on both sides, their eyes cold.

Yuan Rui knew in his heart that he would soon be like Xi'er.

Those Taoist priests, they were looking at a dead man.

Yuan Rui felt his heart pounding, and at this moment, he felt quieter than ever. This is a kind of relief, after death, maybe he can meet his father and mother, and he can meet many people in his dreams.

Yuan Rui closed his eyes and quietly waited for his death. Suddenly, he heard a cacophony of noises, as if someone had stepped on the eaves, crushing the bricks and tiles.

He opened his eyes, and a white shadow swept by.

Yuan Rui's eyes widened, and he suddenly found that a woman in a white veil appeared in front of him.

The woman suddenly stretched out her hand, and with great strength, she pulled the chain directly from the embedded stake. She hugged Yuan Rui and wanted to take him out.

She appeared so suddenly that even the Taoist priest in this backyard did not expect the woman to appear suddenly.

"Dare to be wicked, dare to trespass on the Locust Temple!" The Taoist priests were furious, they recognized the identity of the woman, and threw all the magic weapons in their hands.

The magic weapon slammed into the woman's body, and the woman suddenly coughed violently, and blood fell on Yuan Rui's face. But she still hugged Yuan Rui tightly, jumped forward, and left the backyard of the Locust Temple.

Rain.

The woman ran frantically with Yuan Rui, she could no longer maintain her shape, and her tail peeked out from the thin light veil.

Fortunately, on such a rainy day, there are few people walking around even in the county, let alone such rural dirt roads.

The woman's back was pitted, and the wounds were shocking, and the exposed bones could be seen from inside. She kept holding Yuan Rui until she finally couldn't hold on anymore and fell into the mud.

Yuan Rui looked at the woman, and he always felt that those eyes were a little familiar.

But at this moment, a change suddenly appeared, and Yuan Rui's whole body began to constrict violently, and he couldn't control his body for a while, and twitched wildly on the ground.

The woman was so frightened that she hurriedly stroked Yuan Rui's face.

A lot of weird demon patterns appeared on Yuan Rui's face, his face became pale, his lips cracked because of dryness, his eyes were wide open, he looked ahead in a daze, and his whole body began to swing.

In Yuan Rui's belly, it was as if there was a living thing, moving. The living creature stretched out Yuan Rui's still somewhat immature belly and changed into one strange shape after another.

The woman panicked, she leaned against Yuan Rui's side and gently spit out a few words, such as "you", "thing" and other vague words.

She is a psychic cat demon, and she knows too little compared to those old demons in the deep mountains.

The woman just knew that Yuan Rui's death was only a matter of time.

The cat demon had already died once, and she could clearly feel the taste of death. People often say that cats have nine lives, but who can fully experience the pain of washing the marrow and scraping the bones after each death.

There was no one around, it was a wilderness, and no one would come.

Women only want Yuan Rui to live, but people only have one life.

The woman smiled miserably, and she covered the knife wound on her stomach, where the blood was gone, but there were still two large holes in her belly.

The woman took a deep breath and stretched her waist, which was even more slender in the rain. No one can see this beautiful scene.

She calmed down as a human being, then leaned over, grabbed a strand of her hair with one hand, opened her mouth slightly, and crossed a demon pill into Yuan Rui's mouth.

The demon pill entered Yuan Rui's body, and Yuan Rui's body, which had been spasmodic, suddenly stopped suddenly.

Then, Yuan Rui trembled wildly.

The demon pill and the demon soul in his body are fighting frantically.

The cat demon's cultivation is very weak, but it still has a life. When a life is dead, she consumes another life to devour the demon soul.

Yuan Rui's mouth and nose were full of blood, but his terrifying belly began to dry up. As his bulging belly disappeared, his breathing gradually stabilized.

……

The rain in May is changeable.

When Tang Yun and Jing Liang arrived here, the rain had completely stopped.

The sky was still a little cloudy, and the two of them wore robes, rode on horses, and found a place where the demonic energy emanated.

A trace of red light flashed on the ring on Tang Yun's hand, and he got off his horse and walked to Yuan Rui's side.

He picked up Yuan Rui and probed his snort and breathing.

Beside Yuan Rui, there was a dead white cat.

"Is this a demon?" Jing Liang checked the white cat.

Tang Yun picked up Yuan Rui, put him in his arms, and said, "Save people first!" ”

The two rode away.

The eyes of the white cat, reflecting Yuan Rui's back, gradually faded away with the horse's hooves, and finally disappeared on the horizon.
