Chapter 438: Sea Cloud Lantern
The demon doesn't seem to be hostile to me, and its vigilance is only an instinct for survival.
I didn't know if it could understand Chinese, but anyway, I was going to give it a try, so I said to it, "Little friend, I know you don't want to hurt me, we have no grudges, and I don't want to hurt you." As long as you obediently hand over the Haiyun Lantern and go home with me, I promise not to move you. Let's be kind, and this is good for everyone. ”
But as soon as I finished speaking, it suddenly turned its head, opened its legs, and retreated into the river.
I was dragged forward by him and slid two steps forward, and immediately unleashed a jack drop, and Zama stood firm, pulling the yang line with one hand, so that it could not move half a step.
I can see that this guy not only can't understand Chinese, but he probably can't even understand Burmese, his IQ is very low, and now he is being pulled by me, but he still only cares about retreating to the river, if he is a normal person, he has to look back.
But in terms of strength, it should be about the same as me, and now that it's pulling back with all its strength, I'm under a lot of pressure.
By the light of the moon, I could see that every time it took a step, the soles of its feet sank into the mud of the riverbed, and the pebbles and scattered grass were splashed everywhere, and my feet were stuck in the soil, and it took all my strength to hold it back.
The wrestling didn't last long, and it didn't take long for the demon's stamina to strain a little, and it finally stopped, gasped, and turned its head back to me.
I faced it with a harmless smile on my face, and said in as gentle a tone as I could, "I have no ill intentions, come with me." ”
When I smiled at it just now, it tilted its head and looked at me curiously, but now it doesn't know where I stimulated it, and as soon as the words fell, it suddenly straightened up, roared at me, and then pounced on me with a thousand momentum.
I can't hide from what I should have come after all, so don't blame me for being too ruthless.
Almost in the blink of an eye, the demon pressed my shoulders in front of me, and I prepared in advance, took a lunge, quickly stretched out my hands, and rested my palms firmly on the demons' shoulders.
Then, I felt an unusually violent impact, and the palm bone of my left hand suddenly began to click, and my body slid backwards completely uncontrollably, and the soil and weeds under my feet seemed to be turned by a plow, slowly showing a deep ravine.
I kept calculating the distance until my back was less than half a meter away from the tree behind me, and then I quickly raised my right foot and stomped on the trunk.
The bark of the old tree could not withstand such a strong force, and suddenly cracked and turned outward, but fortunately, the body of the tree was still strong, and with it, I finally stopped the momentum of the evil spirit.
The ghost's IQ is indeed not high, but it is born with an unusually wild nature, and its fighting instinct is far beyond my imagination, and after the momentum is blocked by me, it immediately raises a thick arm, spreads its five fingers, and its huge slap is hung with the sound of the wind, and it is pressed straight towards my chest.
Although its palm was strong, the starting shelf was too large, and a large gap was immediately revealed in its chest, and I saw the right moment to make a quick move, and slapped the demon's big hand on its chest before it landed on me.
This time, I exerted ten percent of my strength, but I did not urge the shock, and the evil ghost could not bear the strength and was overthrown to the ground on the spot.
Dan Tuo was right, the hair on this guy's body was very hard, and the palm just now couldn't cause substantial damage to it at all.
As soon as it hit the ground, it quickly rolled down the ground, first at a distance from me, then on the shoulder, and at me.
I am afraid that normal means can hardly suppress it, and it must be used to destroy the bones.
As it was about to rush in front of me, I slid a step to stagger a position away from it, then took a half-step forward and landed an uppercut that landed firmly on its shoulder, this time with half a shock.
The Bone Destroyer was powerless against this layer of steel-like hair, but the muscles and flesh buried in the hair could not contain the powerful destructive power of the shock.
The moment the fists met, there was a dull sound on the demon's shoulder, but I didn't hear the bones cracking.
It was probably the first time it had been injured, and the pain in its shoulder caused the strength of the demon to dissipate all at once, and it stumbled under its feet and hit its head on the trunk of a tree.
There was another crisp crack of bark, and the stout tree could not bear the tremendous impact, and it kept shaking, and the leaves on the canopy were scattered to the ground.
Holding the trunk of the tree in one hand and protecting his shoulder with the other, the demon turned his head and looked at me with a look of horror.
I was going to take it as soon as I saw it, but it only gave me a frightened glance, and then suddenly it became furious, opened its big mouth with fangs, and without saying a word, put its head around my neck and gnawed at me.
It's fast, but its footwork is completely undisciplined, and its intent is evident every time it attacks.
Before it could dig its fangs into my neck, I cast a cloud step, dodging two positions sideways, and when it rushed past me, I slid half a step forward and punched it in the ribs.
This time I only used half of the shock, after all, my purpose was only to subdue it, not to kill it.
Twice in quick succession, the demon became even more angry, and with a wave of his hand he slapped at me, and I took a quick step to its side and back, and punched it in the shoulder blade.
Except for the first time when it was head-on with the demon, after which its several attacks all failed, and it couldn't touch me at all, it was so anxious that it screamed, and I wasn't in a hurry, so I relied on the cloud step and kept wandering around it.
If it doesn't move, I just move and I don't attack, but as soon as it moves, my fist will fall on it.
I want to tell it that as long as it doesn't attack me, it won't hurt.
At first, the demon's anger became stronger and stronger, and the frequency of swinging its hands and feet became higher and higher, but the more it moved, the more it was beaten, and it might be nothing to take one or two punches, but after dozens of punches, it obviously couldn't hold on.
The angry hiss turned into a wail, and the two big hands that kept waving also protected the wounds on their bodies, and they didn't dare to open them again.
I felt that I was almost there, so I slowly walked up to the demon and asked, "Can you understand me?" ”
This is the equivalent of asking in vain.
But I didn't expect that, as soon as I let my guard down a little, it jumped up again, pointed a pair of fangs at my neck, and pounced on me without saying a word.
Thankfully, it was injured in multiple places, and it wasn't as fast as before, so I dodged a little to one side and punched it in the back at the same time.
Now the demon was completely honest, and it curled up with tears in its eyes, staring at me in great alarm.
I looked at it, and I felt a little embarrassed, this guy can't understand human words, how can I get it to hand over the Haiyun lantern?
I didn't have a clue, so I began to look around, hoping that it would come with a sea cloud lantern, and maybe I would have seen it if I looked at it like this.
It's a pity that I looked around for a long time, let alone the lights, except for the river illuminated by the moonlight, the forest was pitch black, and I could only faintly see the outline of a large area of weeds with the help of the vision of the quicksand of the Qi Sea.
The demon didn't bring the sea cloud lantern, so where would it hide that lamp?
While thinking so, I turned my eyes to the forest beside me, and the evil spirit followed this forest up the river, and when it came, it deliberately lowered its steps, but because its body was too heavy, many weeds were flattened by it, revealing a path that was not very wide.
I suddenly had an idea, pulled the yang thread in my hand, and beckoned to the evil ghost: "Come here." ”
The demon was still curled up, and when he heard my voice, he craned his neck to look at me, and saw me waving at it, but he still didn't understand what I meant.
In desperation, I pulled the yang line twice harder, so that the ghost's body slid along the ground for a distance of dozens of centimeters, even if it was a domestic husky, it should understand what I meant, I don't believe that the ghost's IQ is lower than Erha.
Fortunately, it was really not stupid to this extent, and quickly stood up and walked silently behind me, but did not dare to get too close to me, and kept a distance of about two meters from me.
I followed the path the demon had trodden out, climbed over a hill, and found a cave in the deep forest.
The cave is not deep, from the outside to the inside, that is, two or three meters away, just enough for the evil ghost to live, in the corner of the cave, facing a cluster of dry weeds, in the gap of the grass, you can also see a faint red light, as well as some cloud-like gas.
I opened the haystack and saw a lantern lying on the ground, this thing looks, a bit like a domestic red lantern, but there are a lot of copper bells pressed on the lamp head, and each of the same age is engraved with incantations, these strange lines I have never seen, at a glance, they seem to be some kind of totem, can be carefully recognized, and feel that it seems to be a long-lost ancient script.
As I grabbed the head of the lamp and picked up the red lantern, the seventeen brass bells made a crisp sound at the same time, and at the same time, a thin cloud of smoke spread rapidly from the wick, first spreading through the air for a distance, and then quickly gathering to form a gray-white cloud around the lantern.
The lamp in my hand, it is indeed a bit beyond my common sense, I tried to sense it, there seems to be no slightest spiritual rhyme in the cloud, and there is no Qi field of Qi field, since there is no spiritual rhyme and Qi field, how did this cloud come about, what is it made of?
With such doubts, I walked out of the cave with a frown, and as soon as the demon saw me come out, he quickly took two steps back and widened the distance between him and me.
I shook the sea cloud lantern in my hand and smiled at the evil ghost: "My sister will use this thing, and I will return it to you in two days." By the way, are you going to go back to the old house with me, or are you going to stay here? ”
