16, bloodthirsty Tai Sui
I had the airsoft and the lasso in my hand, the blood-soaked marshmallow and syringe in my waist bag for the time being, and I put on the vision to make sure I didn't miss any details.
I didn't bring coarse salt, because I didn't think about dealing with ghosts at all when I set off, so I could only take one risk this time, summoning spirits with Qiao Wei without a protective barrier.
"Alright, come on!" I continued to lower my voice and said to Qiao Wei.
Qiao Wei nodded, and then muttered in a low voice that he had summoned the soul duel.
Less than three seconds after the summoning began, a cold wind began to blow throughout the woods, and then the sound of crying came from all directions, and one after another dry arms stretched out from under the uncle's trees. The arms had completely lost their moisture, like a knot of dead roots.
The withered hands propped up the ground as they stretched out of the ground, pulling the bodies below out of the ground. Like the hands, the bodies of these people were completely dehydrated and dried up, and they became mummies!
Qiao Wei and I were surrounded by a horde of mummy ghosts in the woods!
Qiao Wei also stopped summoning spirits after all the mummies were unearthed, and instead of disappearing, the mummies stood under the tree and opened their mouths in an exaggerated "O" shape in agony, and let out a piercing cry. I don't know if this cry will call out the Blood Tree golems in the village, but the good news is that the mummies don't show any desire to attack me and Qiao Wei, at least now we're safe.
I could see a steady stream of black yin qi emanating from these mummies, and these yin qi gradually converged and merged to form a thick fog, the temperature of these black fogs was extremely low, and the branches and leaves covered by them immediately stopped shaking, and a layer of frost was formed on the surface.
Soon, these black mist began to drift towards me, and I had no choice but to let this yin qi penetrate my whole body.
In an instant, a heart-piercing cold current seeped into my body, making my whole body shiver.
Qiao Wei is right, being surrounded by a large group of ghosts is indeed an absolutely dangerous thing, fortunately, these ghosts do not have a unified commander, if a ghost king orders them to rush towards me and Qiao Wei together, the high concentration of yin qi will definitely freeze me and Qiao Wei into popsicles in a second!
"Don't cry, tell me who made you who you are, tell me where that thing is?!!" I asked the mummy ghosts around me, and I kept my feet in place to raise my legs to warm up my body without freezing.
Qiao Wei also tried to communicate with these guys who came out of the ground in words.
But our questions were not met with a response from the mummies, who continued to cry and shout in the woods, as if repeating the moment of their own death, as if they were being torn apart in hell.
"Is this a death replay?" I asked Qiao Wei.
Qiao Wei shook his head, "It shouldn't be." Ask more! With that, Qiao Wei ran over to the nearest mummy, and asked the same question over and over again—where was the thing that controlled the village?
I've talked to ghosts before, and it seems that ghosts are very slow to react, perhaps because they haven't communicated with living people for too long, so they can't react for a while. In this case, the only way to do this is to ask questions repeatedly, so that it realizes that someone is talking to them!
So like Qiao Wei, I randomly found a mummy ghost closest to me and asked questions repeatedly, and when I asked about the tenth time, the mummy finally responded! It stopped opening its mouth and crying, but slowly turned its head towards me, and pointed two black holes in its face at me, and after a while two eyes appeared in those sockets.
"Where's that thing that controls the whole village? Do you know?! I'm going to destroy it!! I asked again.
The mummy didn't reply, but it slowly raised its hand and pointed to its right back.
I quickly followed the direction of its finger, but all I saw was a dark wood, and there was nothing special about it at all.
"I've got a reaction here!!!"
At this time, Qiao Wei shouted, and the mummy he asked also pointed him in a direction.
The mummy ghosts of the two of us are in different positions, and the direction of the two people also forms an angle, if they are not pointing in the same direction, the focus of the two mummies is the location of the "tree of life" that controls Fangjia Village.
"Find that intersection!" I replied to Qiao Wei's words, and walked in the direction that the mummy in front of me was pointing.
Qiao Wei also realized that he did the same thing as me, and soon joined me at a point, where there were no trees, just a small clearing in the forest.
"Below?" Qiao Wei pointed to the ground.
"I guess so!" I answered, and then crouched down and began to dig.
Although the winter in Fujian is not cold, the ground is still hard because of the low temperature, so I tried to dig the ground with my bare hands, but the soil on the surface cannot be turned over by hand at all.
The only thing we had on hand that could be used as a digging tool was Qiao Wei's dagger, and there was no way, Qiao Wei could only use it to dig up the ground.
Qiao Wei had just dug twice in the soil with the dagger, and suddenly all the trees in the woods shook on their own, and the wielding branches were like a pair of witches' dry hands, and they were waving their teeth and claws at us, but their roots were forever rooted in the ground and could not move a single bit.
"This should be it!! Go on!!! I said to Qiao Wei while also joining in the digging activity.
Qiao Wei's knife had already turned over the hard layer of soil on the surface, and the soil below was much softer, and I could dig it with my hands, and it didn't take long for us to dig a small hole thirty centimeters deep in the ground.
At this moment, a bright light came from the direction of Fangjia Village-it seemed that my guess was 100% correct!
"Dig now! Dig fast! Qiao Wei urged me as he stepped up and continued to dig deeper.
However, the speed of the two of us still couldn't catch up with the speed of the reinforcements coming, so we continued to dig and within two clicks, the villagers of Fangjia Village rushed over. It was an imperfect puppet with a small sapling about half a meter tall on his shoulder, and he was running over us and shouting, "What are you doing?" No digging !! ”
He shouted like a normal person, but it was all just an illusion.
It was probably the sapling on his shoulder, I didn't think he was normal at all, and I punched him at the same time as he rushed over. The punch struck the man directly in the face, knocking him backwards.
Before he could get up, I rushed over and stomped on his chest, then took a blood-soaked marshmallow from my belt bag and stuffed it into his mouth, and then covered his mouth.
The man struggled for a moment, and then suddenly his eyes widened and his head turned red. Soon, the saplings on his shoulders began to turn yellow and dry up, and Zuihou fell off his shoulders. After the sapling left him, the man also passed out and stopped moving.
The first one was easy to do, but three more people followed, two of them had tree buds on their bodies, and one of them was a tree spirit at all! Behind these three people, there are people who are black and oppressive, even if I have three heads and six arms, I will definitely not be able to stop this group of people.
"Qiao Wei, there is no ?!!! when you dig it out" I shouted at Qiao Dawei anxiously.
"I don't know !!" Qiao Wei shouted and continued to dig with his head, and waved his left hand while digging deep with the knife with his right hand, and the fire dog also jumped out with Qiao Wei's movements.
Whether it is a person or a tree, they will be afraid of fire, and after the fire dog jumped out, it did have a certain deterrent effect, and the puppet villagers who rushed out were obviously stunned for a moment. Unfortunately, this stunned only lasted less than two seconds, and then they rushed towards the fire dog without any fear.
The fire dog howled like a wolf and pounced on the villagers, and a giant flame rolled up behind it.
The fire Lang was a bluff, I had experienced it myself, but something I never expected when the giant Lang passed through the puppet villagers......
