Chapter Seventy-Four: Cross Blood
We were shocked by the scene before us, and it must have been somewhat surprising that the naked woman, although graceful and agile, appeared in such a situation.
Jin Facai and I glanced at each other, both frowned, Jin Facai lowered his voice and asked, "Daguan, do you think this woman is a human or a ghost?" β
I wasn't sure for a while, and I was thinking about how to judge, but I saw that Tie Dan had quietly picked up his rifle, aimed at the girl, and muttered: "Damn, this poisonous gas must have been put by this monster!" Lao Tzu shot her with one shot. β
"Stop!" I quickly suppressed the barrel of his gun, and I was still hesitating whether it was a human or a ghost, but judging from the iron egg reaction, the possibility of being a ghost was very low.
"What's wrong? Brother Zang. Tie Dan asked: "In this barren mountain and wilderness, there is no home nearby, how can someone suddenly come to take a bath, not to mention the appearance of this bath, it is not the washing method of our locals here, I think it must be a ghost!" β
When Jin Facai saw me blocking him, he also asked, "Daguan, do you think it's a person?" It's better to let Tie Dan shoot him, if it's a ghost, he won't die. β
"What if it's really human? Aren't we murderers? I asked rhetorically.
Actually, I was still hesitating about the question of people and ghosts before, but Tie Dan is not richer than me and Jin, he is just a mortal, if he can see it clearly...... There are only two possibilities, either he has some magical protection like Ah Hu and Ah Leopard, or the other party is not a simple ghost.
But in front of Tie Dan, I couldn't say it clearly, so I could only explain: "If it's a ghost, ordinary people can't see it, and if you can see it, it's either a living person or a monster that has become a spirit." Therefore, if it is a human, we will shoot it as murder, and if it is a demon, not only will we not be able to kill her, but it will also cause more trouble. β
"That'...... So what to do? Tie Dan seemed to understand whether he understood or not, but he should also think that I was reasonable, and put down the aiming rifle, and a trace of sweat was already on his forehead.
"Great official, is there any way to judge whether she is a human or a demon?" Jin Facai scratched his hair: "Or, you will go over and talk to her like last time?" β
"Last time?" Tie Dan didn't know what was in the way of Ayido on a rainy night before, and looked at me suspiciously.
"This big brother Zang is a master of yin and yang, he can understand ghosts and gods, so with him, you don't have to be so nervous, look at the sweat of your brain." Kim Fa Cai replied.
"Really? That...... Brother Zang, can you go talk to the ghost? Tie Dan looked at me suspiciously.
I thought that the blonde was rich and troublesome, so I gave him a blank look: "Last time, people were wearing clothes, and now this woman is naked, how can you let me go up and talk?" I suddenly remembered the compass in my bag, so I took it out again and said, "Test it with the compass first to see if the magnetic field here is abnormal." β
This crystal compass, in addition to surveying the magnetic field of feng shui, can also test the spiritual world within 100 meters around.
I took out the compass and laid it flat on the boulder, closed my eyes and silently recited the text of heaven and earth, only to see that the yin and yang hands began to fly again, I was worried that this time it would fail like the previous two times, but I saw that the pointer suddenly slowed down, and the white end of the yang needle slowly stopped in the direction of the girl who was bathing, and continued to tremble slightly......
Naturally, the other two people could understand this scene, and Jin Facai said: "What does this white needle mean?" β
I stared at the frequency of the white needle's fluttering, calculating the message it sent, and replied, "White is yang, black is yin." β
"That's good, since it's yang, it means it's a living person, right?" Kim Fa Choi breathed a sigh of relief.
I shook my head, and tried my best to control my feelings and replied: "Yin lacks yang and yang rises, yang is weak and yin makes up, since the yang needle is attracted to the past, it means that it is full of yin energy...... This woman's ......"
"Bang Bang!" A deafening gunshot sounded, and before I could finish speaking, the iron egg had already sent out a string of bullets.
I hurriedly looked up at the middle of the pool, but saw that the woman turned around, although there was a distance of twenty or thirty meters through the mist, but I could vaguely see that it was an extremely delicate face, about twenty years old, looking elegant and elegant, she smiled faintly at us, and bowed her body, and plunged into the water.
"What are you doing!!" Jin Facai grabbed the iron egg and yelled, "You are crazy! β
"I ...... I...... She's not human! Not people! Tie Dan was obviously frightened, and shook his shoulders excitedly, in addition to sweat, tears also slipped out of the corners of his eyes, and he choked up and shouted: "I have never missed a shot, I must have hit her!" But she ...... It's over, we're going to be done! Woo...... Woo......"
I secretly complained in my heart, although this woman is a monster, but maybe she has no ill will towards us, this poisonous miasma is even if she exudes demonic energy, but it may also be a barrier to protect yourself, but now a string of bullets has been fired, not only exposing our whereabouts, but also obviously killing her, provoking ordinary ghosts is not dangerous, but if this is a goblin who has cultivated into a human form, it is difficult to say!
The walkie-talkie sounded, and it was the voice of Company Commander Wang: "What situation, what situation, please report, please report!" β
The gunshots must have reached the outside, Jin Facai covered Tiedan's mouth, picked up the walkie-talkie and said, "It's okay, I was scared by a bird, you stay where you are and don't come here!" We found the herbs, dug them up and came out. overβ
"Stay safe, over."
Jin Facai let go of the hand covering the iron egg and scolded: "Look at you, you are still a soldier, just such a little guts!" β
I advised, "Forget it, after all, he's still young." Now let's quickly light a fire and disperse the miasma, and immediately go out to save people. β
Jin Facai glared at Tie Dan fiercely: "You put this gun away for me, don't go wrong again." If it's really hell, this broken gun is useless at all! β
Then he turned back to the pile of grass on the stones with me, and branched them into a pyramidal structure, and I took out a match ten thousand times, and lit some hay, and stuffed it into the gap in the lower part, because the newly cut stems and leaves still had some moisture, it was difficult to light them quickly, but there were bursts of smoke, which choked us both of us, and coughed again and again.
"Big official, is this little hot girl's method good or not, don't let the miasma in the back not poison us, but be killed by this smoke." Jin Facai fanned the green smoke in front of him with his hand, and said jokingly: "Don't say it, no wonder Journey to the West says that those goblins can fascinate people, did you see the woman's face just now?" That's pretty handsome. β
"Hehe, in the Journey to the West, Zhu Bajie is the most fooled." I laughed.
"Hey...... What you said is true, so if you want to say this, this iron egg is still Sun Wukong? Jin Facai turned back to Tie Dan and shouted, "Hey, Sun Wukong, don't come here to help...... Hey, Iron Egg! What are you doing! Feed!! Iron Egg! Iron Egg!! β
I heard that his tone was wrong, and quickly turned back to look at Tie Dan.
I saw that Tie Dan had already stood up, his gun was thrown aside, his eyes were blankly looking at the waterhole in front of him, his hands were hanging down on his sides, and he was walking towards the edge of the stone in a daze and slowly.
My heart tightened, and I looked as if I had lost my soul completely, and I didn't respond to a few calls, but walked forward with a dull gaze, and I saw that I was about to reach the edge of the stone, and I would fall into the water if I took another step.
"Not good! Evil! I shouted, and was about to get up, when I saw that Jin Facai had already taken a step forward, and at the moment when the iron egg was about to fall off the stone, I dragged him back.
The iron egg didn't resist, just stood in place sluggishly, his eyes still looking into the water, Jin Facai slapped him in the face twice, and he still didn't realize it.
"Put him down first!" I shouted, and rushed forward, swept his legs at both knees, and blonde took advantage of the situation to support his back and lay him flat on his back.
I looked down at the pupils of his eyes, which were already slowly empty, and the black air in his eyes had lost their aura, and then I touched his hands, which were cold and soft, and pinched my wrists, fortunately, there was still a heartbeat. Kim Fa Choi was pinching his man, but there was no reaction.
This scene suddenly reminded me of Sister Ming, and I quickly opened his eyes again and took a closer look, I remembered Bingbing's description of Sister Ming being possessed before, and sure enough, there were also cross-striped radial bloodlines in the pupils of the iron egg.
"Possessed!" I let out a low sigh of exclamation.
"I'll just say that this kid is too impulsive, you see, this time it's good, offended...... Offended...... The god of the mountains! Jin Facai said as he looked around.
He changed the goblin to a mountain god, which was also clever, and he must have been afraid of offending the thing that he didn't know where to hide now.
"Fortunately, we are ancestral spirits, otherwise, I am afraid that we will lose our souls like him now." As I spoke, I first took out the five elements on my chest and put it outside my clothes, and Jin Facai quickly took it out when he saw this.
"Big official, what should I do now, it is estimated that he will not wake up for a while."
"It's okay, I have a way!" With the experience of Sister Ming last time, I have an idea in my heart.
I took out the Soul Dispersing Decoction powder that Bingbing had left for me in my bag, mixed it with some mineral water, and poured it into the iron egg first. After waiting for about five or six minutes, Jin Facai helped him sit up, then took out my Xiangfei bamboo fan and slapped him on the forehead three times.
After this beat, Tie Dan suddenly coughed a few times, and two lines of dirty blood flowed from his nose.
Although he was still confused, when I opened my pupils and looked closely, the blood streaks of the cross had disappeared, and my hands began to gradually warm, and I knew that there was no major problem.
Give him a few more sips of clean water, lay down and wait for him to wake up.
Jin Facai and I dragged him to the still smoking firewood, and Jin Facai watched him while I continued to fan the fire.
After about ten minutes, the speed of burning of the dried stems and leaves increased, and the strange fragrance in the air was not as obvious as before, and the miasma must have begun to dissipate gradually.
I glanced at the iron egg who was still lying there and did not wake up, and said to Jin Facai: "After the fire is extinguished in a while, we will carry him out of this forest." There were still three people outside who were in a hurry to wait for the medicine to take, and they couldn't spend too much time here. β
Before I finished speaking, I heard another movement on the other side of the waterhole, Jin Facai and I looked at each other, and quickly both fell down, Jin Facai waved his hand at me, signaling me to turn off the light on my head.
The two of them lay together in the darkness, looking at the place where the sound of water could be heard.
The sound was not from the place where the woman had been bathing, but from downstream, and it sounded more like someone wading along the stream, against the current.
After a while, a figure appeared around the corner of our stone, and he looked around as he walked, as if looking for something.
The man seemed to be carrying a large bag, a bundle of twig-like things in one hand and a sapper shovel in the other.
I squinted my eyes to take a closer look, and was about to confirm, but I heard Jin Facai whisper on the side: "Huh? It's not ...... Is the kid surnamed Li? β
