Chapter 12: The Merchant's Ghost
After making an excuse in Li Shanren's room, Yuanchen quietly slipped out of Li's mansion, took a sketch of Jianye City, and walked towards the nearest road from Dongwan Bay.
Although he can't help Li Shanren get rid of his illness as soon as possible, he hopes to be able to bring Li Shanren out of the nightmare and give him some help. Therefore, Yuanchen first went to the East Bay to see the situation and explore the bottom.
North City Gate. Located in the most remote location, the usual flow of people is only Niu Daring and others, but when Yuanchen went to the door, he found that the door was locked, and there was a gust of cold and hot wind through the crack in the door. The old grandson who was sitting next to the carriage saw Yuanchen wanting to push the door open and enter. With a single arrow step, Yuanchen was pulled past his voice and shouted, "Boy, you don't want to die." ”
"I just wanted to see what's going on inside." muttered softly, but when Yuanchen saw him frowning, he had a bad feeling in his heart, could something have happened?
Lao Sun Tou pulled Yuanchen over and whispered: "Some time ago, there were tsunamises around here, and many villagers who went out to sea to fish died at sea. Recently, they gave me a dream, saying that because the killing in the previous life was too heavy, and there was no money to spend money in the underworld to open the joints, they would soon be sent to the reincarnation division to make a sound. They begged me to do a Dharma to overtake them, and I was just about to prepare for other things, when I saw you coming, young man, do your own thing, and get education from others, so don't go in. ”
There is such a thing, Yuan Chen thought to himself, anyway, I am also a disciple of Fang Cun Mountain, isn't it what I should do to subdue demons and eliminate demons. However, due to the persuasion of good people, it is better to take another shortcut.
After a few laps, I finally found the east gate where the map is located, which is really a feature, all the streets in Jianye City are bustling and noisy. But here, it is a pure land, there is not a house, there is no person, there is only a little yellow dust and sand blown in by the hidden door.
It took a lot of effort to push open the city gate, and the East Bay was a desert with water, and the climate there was dry. A hot wind blew, and Yuanchen's face was covered with small dust particles.
Before he had time to enjoy this unique scenery, a fat one-eyed dragon dressed in blue opened his bearded mouth and asked with a grin, "Shaoxia, is there this?" "After that, rubbing the index and middle fingers with his thumb, this is the code word of their underworld, which means money?
Yuan Chen smiled instead and gave him a middle finger. I didn't pay attention to him anymore, just like walking forward. The one-eyed dragon didn't speak again, and lifted the big knife behind him and threw it at Yuanchen's head. Yuanchen lowered his head and ducked, and the sound of the whistling knife made a wolf howl. Yuanchen stretched out his leg and swept the one-eyed dragon's feet, and the one-eyed dragon fell to the ground in response, plunged headlong into the protruding stone behind him, and fainted.
Yuanchen ran to the side and untied the hemp rope tied to the boat, tied up the one-eyed dragon, and drowned his head in the running water, and the poor one-eyed dragon woke up to find that Yuanchen was long gone, and could not speak, so he could only blow bubbles in the water and drink water.
After walking around the desert, I didn't find anything special, and when I was about to return the same way, I found a whirlpool of water next to the stone. Yuanchen dragged the water and slowly collapsed towards the whirlpool, and as soon as he put his hand in, he was sucked to the bottom of the sea by a powerful suction. After a few turns, a few sips of water, he fell to the bottom of the sea.
It turns out that the breath on the seabed here is not as breath-holding as when it is in the sea, and there is a supply of oxygen just like on land, and there are rocks and weeds everywhere.
"Ouch", Yuan Chen was just a step away from the moss underground. Yuanchen, who was lying on the ground, looked at it from a distance and saw where it seemed to be a ship, this ship was huge, the wood had been soaked in seawater and slippery, Yuanchen muttered in his mouth: "It seems that there is some history, is this the ship that Li Shanren was doing business on at that time?" ”
"There's an entrance there." Yuan Chen exclaimed and ran over, only to see that the bottom of the stairs was the place where the cabin rested. "My aunt and grandmother are big enough."
It's like a small hotel, with a dining table, a room, and kitchenware for cooking. "There's an entrance there," Yuan Chen said, lifting the heavy cloth.
Suddenly, a skeleton with no feet, red eyes and bloodless face, a red claw stretched out and was about to pierce Yuanchen's throat, Yuanchen's pupils instantly shrank to the extreme, like leaning back one hundred and eighty degrees, and the whole body was lying flat on the wooden board, after dodging this attack, Yuanchen condensed with his fingers, and the "fixation talisman" pointed forward only to the wild ghost in front of him, and the time stood still for a second and had no effect. The wild ghost turned into a wisp of smoke and wanted to tie up Yuanchen.
"Heavenly Spirit, Heavenly Spirit, Earth Spirit, must be in this situation, master, please. Thunder Talisman "Saying that, above Yuanchen's two fingers, a light blue energy condensed, and with a wave of his two fingers, he fiercely pointed at the wild ghost that turned into a wisp of smoke. At the moment when the two fingers pointed out, a thunderbolt swept through the fingers, straight against the wild ghosts rushing over, and a layer of energy splashed between the touches, and the energy swept through the wooden planks and the decorations were all engraved with a knife scratch, and with a bang, the thunder and lightning rushed through the smoke and hit the wooden board of the stairs, turning into a large charred hole. And the wisps of green smoke slowly dissipated into the air.
After the battle, Yuan Chen took a rough breath, "It turns out that this ghost is doing the trick, no wonder Li Shanren and Lao Sun Tou have been having nightmares, it seems that this resentment is really heavy." ”
As Yuanchen gasped, he didn't know that in a dark place, a creature with a red and blue hat was staring at him. Yuan Chen only felt a chill down his spine, and turned around to look, but there was nothing abnormal. "Is it my delusion?" Yuan Chen muttered quietly.
Yuanchen kicked away, just walked into the center of the boat, a light and shadow swept behind him, and a yellow light wave of moonbend swept towards Yuanchen, Yuanchen immediately widened his eyes, trying to dodge but it was too late. The light and shadow swept across Yuanchen's chest, and a stream of blood spurted out, and he fell to his knees softly.
In front of him, a monster with an unclear face, wearing a blue cloak, bleeding from the pale nails of ten fingers, and bleeding from all parts of the mouth and body was standing in front of him, and his hoarse voice was like a castrated eunuch, and the shrill and tender made people feel furious when they heard it. "Boy, it's a good thing to spoil me, go die."
As soon as the monster in front of him jumped in front of Yuanchen, its pale claws with blood were about to slash at Yuanchen's throat. Feeling the wind formed by the blowing movements, Yuanchen closed his eyes and waited for death to come.
"Ahh Yuanchen let out a death roar, but he sensed that he was still in this world, and there were two voices. Yuanchen opened his eyes and saw that he let out a cry of surprise, and quickly blinked his eyes a few times, is it that I miss it too much or this is the underworld, let me remember the memory of this death. Yuanchen bit his tongue
It hurts, it's not a dream, Yuanchen cried and shouted, "You're finally here." ”
