Chapter 12: I Am Your Brother
The lightning pierced through the roof and found the water ghost accurately. Then, lightning poured from the top of the water ghost's head in an instant, and then quickly spread throughout the body.
Pierced by lightning, the water ghost didn't have time to react, and before he even screamed, it turned into a wisp of green smoke and drifted away in the wind.
Li Mu also sighed after seeing that the water ghost was eliminated by the Six Yang Divine Thunder, and the whole person collapsed to the ground due to the loss of strength. You must know that this Six Yang Divine Thunder is a supreme yang spell, once it is cast, the caster will definitely try his best, and even if he is not careful, he will be in danger of dying with all his might, which is why the Six Yang Zhenren warned them not to use it until they have to. Of course, An Zhiquan at this time is also not much better, the fight with the water ghost just now seems simple but is actually dangerous, so once he is separated, An Zhiquan is also a little exhausted and sits on the ground.
The two looked at each other and smiled, and they could both see the relief in each other's eyes. But the two didn't notice that the water ghost who had just been struck by lightning had escaped with a wisp of remnant soul when it turned into green smoke. And this remnant soul took advantage of the two of them to catch their breath and suddenly got into the body of Uncle Li Mu who was lying on the bed.
As soon as the remnant soul entered Uncle Li Mu's body, he saw Uncle Li Mu's eyes that had been closed all along. But after a closer look, it was found that Uncle Li Mu's eyes were pitch black, without a trace of whites, which made people feel creepy. But Li Mu and An Zhiquan were unaware of this.
When Uncle Li Mu suddenly stood up from the bed, Li Mu and An Zhiquan realized that something was wrong.
At this time, Uncle Li Mu's body was changing, his originally inch-long hair grew wildly, and his dry body suddenly seemed to have fallen into the water. After a while, Uncle Li Mu became the same as the previous water ghost, except that his face was still Uncle Li Mu's own face.
The sound of ticking water resounded in the quiet room again, and the whole room was filled with a terrifying atmosphere.
Seeing that the uncle had turned into a water ghost, Li Mu was very puzzled, so he wanted An Zhiquan to cast an inquiring gaze, but the latter shook his head and said that he didn't know.
Just when the two of them were still confused, Uncle Li Mu's body started to power again, and this time he went straight in the direction of Li Mu and An Zhiquan.
The wet footprints are gradually approaching Li Mu and An Zhiquan, and the danger is also approaching little by little. At this time, the two of them had no strength to stand up at all, and could only watch Uncle Li Mu approach step by step.
"What should I do?" Li Mu asked An Zhiquan anxiously.
An Zhiquan didn't answer, but the grim look on his face indicated his current state. If there is a chance to breathe, maybe An Zhiquan can recover a thing or two, but there is obviously no such time at the moment.
Li Mu was originally guarding the bedside, so he was closest to the bed at this time, and his uncle was the first to attack. Looking at the uncle who was close at hand, Li Mu felt that the uncle had become so terrible for the first time in his life.
Uncle Li Mu approached Li Mu like a wooden man, and then mechanically raised his hands and pinched Li Mu's neck. Uncle Li Mu originally had a pair of ordinary hands, but at this time he had grown long sharp nails.
Li Mu lay on the ground and wanted to be turbulent, but his body did not have any strength at all. But his uncle's ten cold-soaked sharp nails were getting closer and closer to his neck, and Li Mu had to move on the ground with difficulty.
But before he could move away, he felt a pain in his neck. His uncle's nails had punctured his skin, and he could feel his own blood running out of his neck. The severe pain was like a heart booster, so that Li Mu's body finally rose a little strength, which made Li Mu arch violently on the ground like a carp, and his body jumped back, so that his neck escaped the danger of being pierced. However, his chest was cut by sharp nails, leaving several blood marks.
"Bang dang~~~!"
A short sword fell from under Li Mu's body to the ground, and it looked like it was the Jing Ke short sword. Then, a figure in the short sword slowly rose up. And this figure that rose from the short sword was Jing Ke, who had turned into a sword spirit.
Jing Ke had woken up after three days of recuperation in the short sword, and when he had just regained consciousness, he felt the danger coming from Li Mu's body. Because Li Mu's blood was used when he was transformed into a sword spirit before, Jing Ke established a connection with Li Mu.
Jing Ke came out to take a look, and sure enough, he saw that Li Mu had fallen into danger again.
This is Li Mu and An Zhiquan also saw Jing Ke appear, and the two of them were shocked.
"Jing Ke, hurry up!" Li Mu was also overjoyed to see Jing Ke come out at such a critical moment. At this time, Jing Ke was tantamount to his and An Zhiquan's savior, and he hoped that Jing Ke could help in such a time of crisis.
But Li Mu saw that Jing Ke didn't make a move immediately, thinking that the other party was taking care of something, so he hurriedly said: "Jing Ke, hurry up, that big deal owes you a favor." "No matter in the times, it is always difficult to pay off the debt of favors.
In fact, the reason why Jing Ke didn't make a move immediately was because Jing Ke was looking at Uncle Li Mu at the moment.
"It turns out that the remnant soul is doing the trick!" After observation, Jing Ke knew the reason.
So Jing Ke waved his hand, and the short sword on the ground was instantly unsheathed, and then it roared in the air and shot towards Uncle Li Mu.
"Wait a minute!"
Li Mu suddenly stopped, and the short sword that was shot hovered only a few centimeters away from Uncle Li Mu's forehead. Thanks to Li Mu's timely call, otherwise this sword would definitely pierce his uncle's head.
"Hey, this is my uncle, you're going to kill him like this. Can you destroy the remnants of the water ghost without hurting his body? Li Mu also had some heart palpitations when he saw that Jing Ke was so ruthless.
That Jing Ke was an assassin, and he naturally didn't leave a way to live, so he was impatient to hear Li Mu's many requests, but Jing Ke still did what Li Mu asked.
The short sword flew back into its scabbard, flashing with Jing Ke's figure. Li Mu didn't see how Jing Ke moved at all, and saw Jing Ke's figure turn into a sword shadow and pass through his uncle's body. After passing through, Jing Ke's figure returned to its original state, but at this time there was an extra shadow in his hand.
The shadow in Jing Ke's hand was the remnant soul of the water ghost, and he didn't know how Jing Ke did it. Losing the control of the remnant soul, Uncle Li Mu's body fell to the ground with a bang. Li Mu's hanging heart finally fell.
Turning his head to look at Jing Ke's side, Li Mu saw that Jing Ke swallowed the remnant soul of the water ghost with his mouth, and the appearance was indescribably weird. Moreover, Li Mu was surprised to find that after Jing Ke absorbed the remnant soul again, the originally somewhat dim figure was actually a little thicker. Could it be that this Jing Ke has the ability to devour ghosts to replenish himself, if this is the case, Li Mu must be cautious, because he doesn't know what Jing Ke will do with this ability at that time.
Jing Ke said that after absorbing the remnant soul, he immediately returned to the short sword, which caused the entire room to fall silent again.
After coming over for a while, Li Mu and An Zhiquan both recovered a little, so the two struggled to get up from the place. Then they lifted Uncle Li Mu's body to the bed, and then opened the door.
Outside the door, Li Mu's second brother-in-law was lying on the ground, obviously stunned by the Six Yang Divine Thunder just now. However, except for fainting, it was no big deal, and Li Mu sent him back to the room again. The other people in the room also fell into a coma, which made Li Mu feel a little happy. If these people saw the water ghost in the house just now, they might not know how much chaos they would make at that time, and they all fell into a coma at this time, which saved Li Mu some of his tongue.
The next morning, everyone in Uncle Li Mu's family was destined to get up late. Many people in the neighborhood stood at the door of the house and pointed, obviously they had not forgotten the movement of Uncle Li Mu's house last night. In addition, it was almost ten o'clock, but Uncle Li Mu's door was still tightly closed, which made these neighbors speculate even more.
Just when these neighbors were exchanging speculations, the door of Uncle Li Mu's house was finally opened. And when the neighbors saw the people coming out of the gate, they all let out exclamations, and some even screamed and ran away. Only a few of the bold neighbors stopped to watch, but the slight backward footsteps also showed a hint of fear in their hearts.
Uncle Li Mu was also a little confused when he saw so many people gathered at the door of his house, but since he saw it, he naturally said hello.
The neighbors heard Uncle Li Mu's familiar voice, and the fear in their hearts was slightly reduced. In addition, it was a blue sky and a white day at this time, and the sun shone on Uncle Li Mu's body and dragged out a long shadow, so that the neighbors finally let go of the fear in their hearts.
Slowly, the neighbors began to talk to Uncle Li Mu, and at the same time, they also told Uncle Li Mu what had happened in the past few days. But Uncle Li Mu didn't remember anything about the last few days at all, he only remembered that he was very tired when he came back from carrying water that day, and then he simply ate something and fell asleep. But now what the neighbors said made him feel so strange that he wondered if the neighbors were making fun of him early in the morning.
A cry of surprise came from the gate, and it was Aunt Li Mu who walked out of the door. I thought that my man would die, but I didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, my man was standing in front of him alive again, and this great joy of regaining it made him cry even more.
Uncle Li Mu saw his wife crying suddenly, and the crying was also intermittently talking about life and death, which made him believe what the neighbors said just now.
Then, Li Mu's two cousins and cousin-in-law also came out one after another to surround Uncle Li Mu. Li Mu's home is a little far from his uncle's home, so I don't know if Uncle Li Mu has woken up, or if one of the enthusiastic villagers ran to bring a letter to them. When Li Mu's parents came to take a look, sure enough, his brother was doing as usual, which couldn't help but make him sigh as a brother.
Li Mu and An Zhiquan's fight last night really made them tired, and they planned to sleep well in the morning, but the chattering people outside the house chatted loudly, as if there was some happy event at home. Li Mu wrapped his head in a pillow and turned over and continued to sleep, but the noise was so pervasive that he couldn't sleep at all.
Li Mu, who had no choice, had to get up, and when he got up, he found that An Zhiquan had also gotten up and was standing by the window looking out of the house.
Li Mu also walked to the window and looked out, and saw that his uncle had recovered, and was chatting loudly with a group of laborers at this time, and the other family members were also smiling from ear to ear, the scene was really happy.
Li Mu saw that his family was so happy, and he put aside the irritability in his heart just now and wanted to go out to share the joy with his family, but when he looked up and saw An Zhiquan's eyes shining with envy, Li Mu also patted him on the shoulder.
"If you don't dislike it, this will be your home from now on. I'll be your brother from now on! ”
An Zhiquan was also shocked when he heard Li Mu's words, and then nodded heavily at Li Mu.
