Chapter Twenty-Three: Demonic Immortality

I looked back at the wall, which had been a brightly colored mural, but now it was a concrete wall. I suddenly had the feeling that I couldn't distinguish between reality and illusion, and I couldn't help but look back at Hu San again, as if I was afraid that he would suddenly disappear like the mural just now.

"What's wrong?" Hu San shouted at me, and his voice was much louder than just now.

"Ah, it's okay, it's okay!" I raised my flashlight and shone it into the coffin, and Hu San's wooden sword was indeed inside.

By the time I gave him back the wooden sword, he was already on his feet, and it seemed that he was in much better shape.

"Didn't you say that with your cultivation, your soul will die of a serious illness? Why did they all stand up? I joked.

"Damn, do you want me to die?"

I smiled: "How can I be, I care about you." ”

"Okay, don't talk nonsense, shouldn't we go back, your lover doesn't seem to be here?" Hu San patted the dust on his body and prepared to leave.

I thought about it, I have found all the places to look here, and there is no clue to the black shadow, could it be that she didn't come here? The old monster's secret has not been solved, and it seems that we will have to wait until we catch her in the future.

After learning the lesson just now, we were doubly careful on the way back, and Hu San and I walked side by side, not leaving an inch. After walking out of the room, Hu San let out a sigh: "This time the vitality is seriously injured, and I have to make up for it after I go back." ”

"Okay, I'll go back and buy you some kidney treasure or something." I saw this thing from Master's TV, and I don't know what it does, anyway, the TV says that he is good and I am good, it should be a good thing.

"Huh? How did you become so unshaped? I'm hurting my vitality and not hurting my kidneys! ”

After a couple of gossip, we've come to the coffin outside that contains the bones of the youkai. At this moment, that strange feeling came again, and I always felt that something was wrong with the coffin!

"Give me the flashlight," I took the flashlight from Hu San's hand and leaned over to the coffin.

"Why are you still looking at that monster?" Hu San shouted behind him.

I ignored him, raised the flashlight and shone it into the coffin, and when I saw the scene inside the coffin, I was stunned, staring blankly at the inside, unable to say a word.

"What's wrong?" Hu San found that something was wrong, so he also came over, looked down, and saw that Hu San's face turned white in an instant: "Demon, where is the monster?" ”

At this time, the coffin was empty, and when I came just now, I saw the skeleton of a monster with a human head and a worm body.

I just said that I always felt that there was something wrong with this coffin, and it was really weird.

"Could it be that he became a sperm and ran away on his own?"

Hu San ignored me with a gloomy face, "Huh? He gave a sigh of encouragement, a puzzled look on his face, moved his left foot, and then crouched down, as if picking up something.

"Here, here!"

Hu San raised his hand at me, the flashlight was very dim, and I saw a white irregularly shaped object at Hu San's feet.

"It's bones!" Hu San said in a calm voice: "It's really coming out!" ”

"It's a monster, it's all skeletons and you can run out!"

"Come on, that's impossible!" Hu San carefully picked up the bone and looked at it: "I suspect that someone came in and stole it." ”

"Huh? What is a bone shelf stealing it for? "I still can't figure out what this broken bone can do.

Hu San was silent for a while before he said, "The skeleton should have been stolen by that old monster, maybe it was to cultivate some kind of witchcraft." ”

Hu San told me a legend about the cultivation of witchcraft and evil methods.

Legend has it that in the last years of the Ming Dynasty, an immortal appeared in the rivers and lakes, and it is said that he had lived for nearly two hundred years. There are many people who come here to ask for advice on the method of immortality, but if people come to chat with her normally, she is no different from ordinary people, but when it comes to immortality, the old man will keep silent, and sometimes even speak ill of each other, scolding people, like a madman.

In short, the man had a very strange temperament, she had no children and no daughters, and lived in a ruined temple that had been abandoned for many years.

One day, a wandering Taoist heard about this and was quite curious. Immortality has always been the goal of all cultivators, but few have been able to achieve it. Knowing that someone had lived for nearly 200 years, the Taoist went to visit with great interest, but then he didn't know what had happened, and the Taoist died in the temple.

This incident alarmed the government, and when they sent someone to arrest the murderer, they found that the old man had disappeared, and found a hole in the broken temple, which was full of white bones. The most incredible thing is that not all of those white bones are human bones, but also some animal and human bones are connected together.

Later, the matter became more and more evil, and it was said that the old man was changed by a monster, eating human flesh and drinking human blood, and the white bones in the cave were the human bones she had eaten, and the strange bones that looked like people and animals were the little monsters she gave birth to, and she was also brutally killed by her, and ate the flesh and blood.

There is also a theory that the white bones in the cave do have the bones of monsters, and the old man uses the bones of monsters to cultivate the method of immortality.

"So, that old monster may be using the bones of the monster to cultivate demonic magic in order to live forever?"

Hu San nodded: "There is a possibility." ”

I thought to myself, if that's the case, then what's going on with Xiaolian, could she also be practicing some evil law? Looking at her innocent appearance, I can't relate to the strange old monster.

"What do you think?" Hu San looked at me in a daze and patted me on the shoulder, "Let's go, let's go back first." ”

"Where are we going?"

Hu San was stunned and scratched his head: "Go find Tianqingguan!" ”

"Are our things still with the old Daogu? Don't want it? ”

Hu San frowned, "Forget it, don't want it, there's nothing valuable!" ”

"Are you afraid of meeting that old Dao girl?"

Hu San asked me rhetorically: "Are you looking for your little lover!" ”

"Don't say it's useless, if you don't go, I'll go anyway." To be honest, looking for Xiaolian is also one thing, the key problem is that I haven't figured out whether the old Daogu and the old monster are the same person.

Hu San smiled lewdly: "Okay, well, listen to you." ”

He straightened his messy clothes and moved his limbs.

"Don't bother, let's go!" I urged.

"Wait." Hu San squirmed for a long time: "Alas, I just found that my body didn't hurt at all." As he spoke, he lifted up his trouser legs, carefully untied the white cloth wrapped around his legs, and said, "Flashlight, flashlight." ”

I shone the flashlight over and saw that Hu San's legs had a lot of blood scabs that had coagulated. He reached out and touched it, muttering "Okay, so fast!" ”

Immediately, he untied the strips of cloth that had been bandaged on the rest of his body, and found that the wounds were almost healed.

Seeing this scene, I also looked at the wound that had been bitten by the worm, I didn't dare to look at it before, but at this time, I saw that it was the same as him, the wound was not as terrible as I imagined, it seems that this is really the credit of the old Taoist aunt.
