Chapter 22 The evil spirits do not disperse
"Who's that?" A squire's eyes sharpened and saw a figure not far away slowly approaching the riverbank. Everyone turned their heads, the light was dim, only the silhouette looked blurry, but judging by the height, the figure was still a child.
"Go check it out!" Lord Song commanded, his voice very deep.
The attendant didn't dare to slack off and ran over, Lu Yun looked nervous, and after thinking for a while, he followed. The emperor was about to move, but was stopped by Ruan Yuheng, he pursed his lips, carefully leaned into his ear, and whispered: "Master, don't go over yet!" That kid is here alone, I'm afraid there's a problem! ”
The emperor naturally sensed that something was wrong, and the group did not dare to act rashly. The attendant walked up to her, only to see that it was only a young girl in front of him, and he breathed a sigh of relief, and his suspense was relieved.
"Hey, kid, don't come here, go home!" He kindly reminded the girl that her eyes were misty and seemed to be deaf, and she just walked towards the river.
"Hey!" The attendant stepped forward to stop her, and as soon as she touched her body, it was as cold and stiff as if it had touched ice. The attendant was so frightened that his legs fell to the ground, Lu Yun glanced at him, walked around him, looked at the girl coldly, and in an instant, he looked at her with a sharp expression, picked up a talisman and pasted it behind her back.
The girl was suddenly stunned, and a thin snort came out of her mouth. Suddenly, the charm suddenly ignited on her body, and instantly burned to ashes, and the light that had just appeared under the girl's eyes dimmed again, and she continued to walk towards the river in a trance.
Lu Yun didn't expect that the monster in this water had such mana, and his spell didn't work here at all, seeing that the girl was about to walk to the river, Lu Yun immediately took out two talismans and put them on her forehead. The girl's forehead was already covered with sweat, and her face was very pale at the moment.
"Hurry up and help!" He shouted at the squire.
"Huh?" He stiffened back to his senses: "Yes! He came in a trance.
"Carry this child and walk towards the crowd!" As soon as his voice fell, the spell seemed to react again, burning from a corner: "Quick! ”
"It's... Be! Seeing this, Lord Song hurriedly arranged for other attendants to come and respond.
"What's going on there?" Lord Song's heart trembled, and the whole person lost his confidence.
"Back to ...... Back to my lord, this girl seems to have fallen into evil! The attendant's face turned pale with fright, and his hand clenched the hilt of his sword tightly. Carefully look around.
"Evil?" Lord Song was cold all over, but he kept sweating. I saw that at this moment, the girl's face was pale, and the charm on her body burned instantly, turning into a wisp of green smoke, and the girl desperately wanted to break free from everyone, and was determined to go to the river.
"Hurry up and take this girl out of the river and send her back to the village!" Ruan Yuheng unceremoniously knocked her unconscious with the hilt of the sword, everyone looked at him in surprise, and he straightened his voice a little embarrassed: "What are you looking at?" If she doesn't faint, can you take her? Don't hurry yet! ”
Lord Song squinted and smiled: "Then the lower official will also personally send this child." ”
"Wait, the mess here hasn't been cleaned up yet, where does Lord Song want to go?" He tilted his head and said, "Lord Song has never believed in these ghosts, what's the matter, this is scared?" ”
"How so! Let Lord Ruan laugh, Xia Guan is just worried about the safety of this child! Lord Song stopped his words stupidly, and the more panicked he became.
Lu Yun took out a talisman and just pinched it in his hand, the talisman burned instantly, and he looked at him with a frightened expression, but he didn't know that at this moment, there was a female ghost in red standing in front of her and looking at him.
Lu Yun only felt that his head hurt, there was a green water ghost standing next to this female ghost, this water ghost had no hair, but there was a pool of clear water in the depression above his head, it had a bird's beak, the turtle shell behind it was covered with spikes, and there were webbing between its hands and feet. And it was half in the water, and it was eating a human tailbone in its mouth.
The female ghost in red has long hair and a shawl, but her facial features are delicate and cute, a pair of bright eyes on her white and tender little face are staring at Lu Yun, for a while, the corners of her mouth are slightly raised, and she picks up the 'Wuming Fan' in her hand and fans it gently, Lu Yun only feels that a gust of yin wind is coming in front of him, and his expression is stagnant, and he even forgets to breathe.
For a while, his body did not obey the call, but he still knew what was happening in his heart, he was stunned by the devil, at this moment his body was moving to the river, he desperately tried to control his feet, but he still did not obey the call and walked slowly.
The female ghost smiled and hooked her index finger. Ruan Yuheng took the hilt of the sword in front of him, but he still couldn't stop him, the emperor stepped forward and grabbed his shoulder, and suddenly a light shook, and the female ghost was shocked far away, and the water ghost on the side immediately got into the water. The body of the female ghost in red slowly became clear, and everyone saw that the monster in front of them was actually a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl.
Lord Song was so frightened that he didn't come up in one breath and fainted, and several attendants immediately supported him.
Lu Yun's body trembled, and he came back to his senses, he immediately took the demon rope in the hand of his subordinate and wrapped it around her neck, the rope was tight, the little girl screamed, she wanted to tear the rope open, but as long as her hand touched it, her skin was burned blood red like a burn. She looked at them pitifully and cried, "Son, spare your life! ”
"You monster, cannibalistic souls harm people's lives, it's not a pity to die!" Lu Yun was about to make a move with the demon pestle in his hand, but the emperor stopped him, he looked at the female ghost in front of him, and asked coldly, "Have you heard of the whereabouts of the dragon scales?" ”
The female ghost blinked and shook her head: "I've never heard of it!" ”
"Are there any other youkai in this river?"
She shook her head again, and pulled the corners of her mouth with a simple face: "No! ”
The emperor was silent for an instant, bowed his head and said, "Could it be that there is no kappa in this river?" With that, he looked at the bottomless river, and at this moment a pair of dark eyes in the water were watching everything on the shore.
"Master, this female ghost is useless, right?" After speaking, Lu Yun stood up straight and looked at her: "If this monster is not removed, I am afraid that the nearby villagers will not be at peace!" ”
The emperor stopped talking and walked back to the place where the horse was tethered. Lu Yun naturally received the order, he held the demon pestle in the air, the female ghost was cold, and prayed: "Childe, please let me go, I don't dare anymore, I really don't have the heart to harm you!" ”
Lu Yun sneered: "You still dare to mention what happened just now, this official was stunned, almost fell into the water, and was asked for his life by you, you still dare to beg me for mercy?" Without hesitation, he plunged the demon pestle into the female ghost's heart.
The female ghost's expression was slightly slackened, and she fell to the ground in an instant, without the slightest struggle or pain, as if she had been dead for a long time. For a long time, her body didn't disappear? Today's events are really strange, if it was usual, he would have been able to detect the yin qi a long time ago, but today the female ghost was in front of his eyes, and he didn't notice a trace of yin qi. Besides, after the female ghost appeared and dispersed the soul, the body should have disappeared, why did it turn into a corpse soaked in water.
Could it be that his expression tightened, and he immediately turned over the girl's corpse in an instant, and her tailbone had been pulled out! And only kappa can eat human tailbones, and there are monsters in this river! If he guessed correctly, the corpse in front of him should be the girl who disappeared today, that evil thing is definitely not an ordinary monster, she just borrowed the body of this girl, so has the soul that confronted him just now been removed at this moment?
The emperor jumped on the horse with a cold expression, and Ruan Yuheng broke the embarrassment with a stiff smile: "Master, fortunately I found the evil today, and there will be no more children in vain in the future!" ”
"Yes! Arrange for Song Xi to go to the host of Yingguang Temple and do a ritual for the undead here! He glanced back at the river and breathed a sigh of relief: "This monster is excepted, but there is still no whereabouts of dragon scales!" ”
"Master, don't be anxious...... Ruan Yuheng didn't dare to look up at him, and was silent: "It must be ..... There will be dragon scales falling! ”
As soon as he spoke, a very light and shallow laugh beside him: "Will there be?" It's been three years, and we don't have any clues! ”
"Master!" Lu Yun hurriedly ran over, his voice was low, but what he said was terrifying: "We...... It should have been deceived, the little girl is not a monster, but an evil spirit is attached to the girl, this little girl has drowned for a long time, and her tailbone has been eaten! Therefore, there must be a kappa in this water, and if we leave today, evil things will still happen in the villages around here. That evil spirit may have helped the kappa to capture people's minds and lure them into the water! ”
"Kappa ate this girl's tailbone? Is it still in the water today? The emperor looked at the riverbank not far away in disbelief, and for a long time, his thin lips opened and closed: "You immediately go to Yingguang Temple and find the host to come here!" ”
"Yes!" Lu Yun was stunned and didn't move: "However, I don't know if the evil spirit has been expelled or not?" If it's still there, I'm afraid it's not easy to deal with! Today, if I could feel the yin qi, I wouldn't be teased by her, but this monster is not a ghost, and no yin qi can be tapped, even if the host comes, I may not be able to detect where she is! ”
"Then you still have no way to take her?" The emperor's eyebrows are slightly clustered.
Ruan Yuheng's body stiffened, and his eyes deepened: "However, master, what he said is right, Lu Yun's ability to perceive yin qi does not have to be bad, we still don't know what this evil spirit is?" He was also silent, and whispered: "But if ..... girl from the Luo family is here, she will definitely be able to see this evil, and we can't see it, she can!" ”
"The Luo family?" The emperor's eyes were heavy: "No, she is still just a weak woman, the evil is so powerful, it is difficult for Lu Yun to even protect herself, who cares about her safety!" ”
"Master, have you forgotten what you asked her to come to you for? Isn't it because she has the eyes of yin and yang, and now that there is a kappa in the water, the whereabouts of the dragon scales may be in front of her, so why don't you use it at this time? Ruan Yuheng shrugged: "Besides, the host of Yingguang Temple will also be invited, you don't need to worry about her safety!" ”
The emperor paused slightly, Ruan Yuheng suddenly picked up the horse's belly, and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyebrows: "Master, we are going to Luofu now, Lu Yun's people have already set off to Yingguang Temple, the distance between the two roads is not much different, if there is no difference, when we rush back, the host should also be invited!" ”
