Chapter 278: Unbelievable Attack
And the cousin next to him, after listening to Xiao Lei's analysis, couldn't stop nodding, as if he felt the same way.
In the past, we always thought that this blind man was almost completely isolated from society - except for the occasional disguise, exchanging gold and silver jewelry for money, and then buying some necessities, he should have spent most of his time hiding in a cave.
But in retrospect, that may not be the case.
My cousin said to us with a stern face: "The cunning of this blind man is far beyond our imagination, we are too light and careless, think about it, if you are a blind man, if you suddenly cannot read the enemy's heart, will you sit still and wait to die?"
Of course not!
The blind man must have used his disguise skills to observe us around, although we had corpse worms before, he couldn't get too close to us, but he was very likely to observe our whereabouts from a distance. ”
The more I listened, the more frightened I became, and suddenly I thought of a detail - the last time we were talking, there happened to be a plumber who came to see the water meter, and my cousin took out the bottle of corpse worms before opening the security door. It occurred to me that the reason why my cousin had done that was to make sure that the plumber was made of a blind man—if the plumber had been a blind man, the worms in the bottle would have turned red.
It seems that my cousin is thoughtful, and his vigilance is also very high.
Sister Li next to her said with great feelings: "My cousin is right, in the process of fighting with the blind man, the effect of the corpse insect is really too great, otherwise, the blind man can approach us lightly with his superb makeup skills, which would be too terrible." ”
Hearing Sister Li say this, I also suddenly thought of something, and immediately said to my cousin: "You must already know that when we entered the cave this time, some of those corpse insects turned into butterflies and melted on the face of that corpse; And the rest have become ants, so, these corpse worms are lost, not a single one is left, do we have to go to the feng shui master again, get some back, if there are no corpse worms, we will be very passive. ”
Before my cousin could answer, he saw Hongmei smile at me and said, "My cousin has thought of this a long time ago, he sent someone to the feng shui master yesterday, and he has already brought some corpse worms back." ”
I especially like to see Hongmei's smile, she smiles more beautifully and warmly, and there is a different kind of gentleness, which makes me a little pounded, so I hurriedly look away. Of course, everyone didn't notice this subtle change in my feelings, and continued to talk about the high blind man.
The cousin nodded with a solemn expression, and pointed to the table next to him and said: "Look, the corpse worm is on the table, alas, in fact, these are my master's treasures, I can't bear to ask him for more, but there is no way, but have you noticed, among the corpse worms we brought back last time, there is one of the largest, and only on the head of the worm, there are obvious facial features, and the other insects are not, but after we raised them for a period of time, almost every worm's head has grown vague facial features, In my master's place, insects will not have this condition, this may be a special change that insects will have after leaving the yin qi in the mountains."
We were all amazed at this, because none of us noticed it except our cousin! My cousin is really the "think tank" of our team - whether it is observation and thinking ability, few of us are unmatched.
Now that we have corpse worms, our psychology is much more secure - although the blind man is so clever in disguise that we may not recognize them, he will never be able to hide them, as soon as he appears around us and is close enough, they will immediately turn red, like a special kind of siren.
The corpse worm is an invisible wall that blocks the attack of the blind man on us. Not only for us, but also for Feng Shui masters who can deal with the blind man for decades, it is completely dependent on these little insects.
But as my cousin said, the most frightening thing about this blind man, in addition to his supernatural abilities, was his terrible mind—his way of acting and thinking far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
Sure enough, immediately after that, even our most impregnable "corpse insect barrier" was attacked by the most bizarre attack by the tall blind. And the method used is simply incredible.
We have to start from the beginning.
Since our frustration in this move, we have been in intensive meetings at my cousin's house for two days in a row to consider what to do next.
I really don't have a clue this time.
Although it was the same as last time, it also caused the blind man to be injured a little, but what was the use? According to my cousin's analysis, with the character of a blind man, our attack will make him more aware of our threat to him, so he is very likely to launch a fierce counterattack against us, so we must be especially vigilant.
My cousin also specially packed the corpse insects into two other bottles, so that Sister Li and I could take them, and instructed us to always pay attention to the change in the color of the corpse insects when we were alone at home or when we went out, so as to prevent the attack of the blind man.
The next two days were very peaceful, nothing happened, but somehow, the calmer it was, the more uneasy we felt. In particular, the strange death of the Taoist priest and the mysterious disappearance of the spirit fetus in his house make us vaguely feel a certain ominous.
Sometimes, people's sixth sense is still very accurate, and sure enough, on the night of the third day, strange things really happened.
During this time—at my cousin's request—we were all together as much as we could, and there was strength in numbers, so that our safety would be better ensured, and if we were separated, we would be more easily broken by the blind men.
Therefore, except for me and Sister Li going home to sleep, we try to be together as much as possible at other times.
Moreover, when we both come home in the evening, it is not too late, usually around ten o'clock, because it is summer, and at this time, whether it is on the street or in the community, there will still be a lot of people, so as to effectively prevent the attack of the high blind man, because from what we know about him, the high blind man is unlikely to do anything in public - I always feel that he is like an evil god of darkness, who cannot see the light.
But on the third night, around ten o'clock, as we were leaving, an accident happened.
Dinner was late that day, and it wasn't finished until almost ten o'clock, Hongmei and Sister Li were washing dishes and chopsticks in the kitchen, and me, Xiaolei and my cousin were sitting on the sofa chatting.
We were all depressed, because we didn't have much to do with our holidays, but the action to get rid of the blind man was difficult, and we lost our direction for a while, and we were both anxious and melancholy.
My cousin's heart was also heavy, and he was often lost in thought, his brows furrowed, and he was thinking about something. Most of the time, Xiao Lei and I were chatting, and the atmosphere seemed depressing and mixed with a bit of despair.
But what happened next stirred up the dreary atmosphere in the room.
Just as his cousin was pouring tea, he seemed to have discovered something, and suddenly exclaimed: "Look, the corpse insect has changed color."
When my cousin shouted like this, several of us were surprised, and we heard a snap in the kitchen, as if a plate had been hit, maybe Hongmei or Sister Li heard my cousin's words, and she was excited, and she missed a plate.
Within seconds, we all gathered around quickly, observing the corpse worms on the table.
My first thought was, "Oh no, the blind man has appeared." I'm afraid everyone in the room thought so at first.
But when we see the color of the corpse worm in the bottle, we can't help but be confused - because although the color of the corpse worm has changed, it has not changed to red, but to green! What the hell is going on!
Isn't it true that every time the tall blind man appears, the corpse worm turns red? But we have never seen the corpse insect turn green, but no matter what, since the color of the corpse insect suddenly changed, it must indicate that there is some kind of abnormality, so until we find out the reason, my cousin asked me and Sister Li not to go home for now.
Xiao Lei quickly walked to the window and closed all the open windows. Then take out the tranquilizer gun, dagger, and take off the slippers and replace them with light sneakers. Several of us were also ready to fight, and for a while, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense.
The cousin seemed very calm at this time, he picked up the phone and called the feng shui master; At this time, we thought of the feng shui master, yes, he should be the person who knows the corpse worm best, this situation, maybe the feng shui master has encountered it before, so, just ask him, maybe the truth will be revealed.
But to our surprise, the feng shui master has never encountered this kind of situation, and he has never seen a corpse insect turn green in decades, which makes it even more strange for us to think this kind of thing.
What does it mean for corpse insects to turn green? Several of us were nervous.
At this time, suddenly, only hearing a commotion in the kitchen, Xiao Lei was the first to jump up from the sofa, rushed to the kitchen door at a very fast speed, and then hid by the door, and looked sideways inside.
A few of us followed, but when a white cat came out, we were relieved that it was just a cat from my cousin's family, and it was a false alarm.
We sat back down on the couch in the living room. Looking intently at the corpse insects, their color did not fade, but their color became darker and darker, almost black-green, and they looked very restless, jumping up and down quickly in the bottle.
Sister Li suddenly murmured, "They look very painful, if they continue like this, will they all die?" ”
Hearing Sister Li say this, we became more and more worried. But because we didn't know why, we were helpless and stood by in a daze, not knowing what to do.
Suddenly, my cousin's phone rang, and it was a feng shui master calling!
It turned out that after his cousin had just called the feng shui master, the feng shui master was also shocked by the strange changes in corpse insects, and he hurriedly checked his previous information and diary, and then suddenly thought of an incident decades ago.
In the summer of that year, the rain was particularly heavy, and it rained heavily for many days, flooding the villages below the mountain, and even the many stone pits and valleys in the mountains were filled with water. However, because the feng shui master's residence is relatively high, it is basically unaffected, but one afternoon, he discovers a strange thing.
