134, turtle keeper (II)
Such a person suddenly appeared on the dark lake, and actually floated in the air, its strange state was indescribable, but Lao Dao was not strange, "hey" and said: "I didn't expect that there is really a turtle keeper here, how did you find out?" ”
I said, "If this lake is wet, it will be red for half a day, if it is not a golden ghost, what else can it be?" ”
Lao Dao really knew how to do it, nodded and said, "Well, it makes sense, but since there is a golden ghost here, I will save trouble." ”
I wondered, "Why are you here?"
"It's just for the sake of walking corpses, don't you know that there is a water rebellion in the river around the city?" Lao Dao was a little surprised.
"What, can this kind of place still be reversed? I thought that this kind of walking corpse only existed in the Yellow River. It was only on this point that I realized that the old saying is "walking corpses" and not "lost".
"What is a water inverse?" Shen Chongdao.
"This is a kind of walking corpse unique to the Yellow River, and after a person dies, he walks all the way along the river that flows against the current, which is the water reversal." I said.
"When a man dies, he goes against the river? Is this a scam or what's going on? Lodge said.
"If people are buried in the sand before they die, nine times out of ten they will become water reversal, this kind of walking corpse will go against the current, until it reaches the depths of the water, if it is entangled in the ankles of aquatic weeds and the like, they will always stand motionless under the water until it is soaked and rotten, water reversal is not uncommon, many underwater workers can often see this kind of walking corpse, but they don't understand the reason, and don't know that this kind of standing underwater corpse is water reversal, but water reversal is mostly smelled in the waters of the Yellow River, this kind of place I have been mixed for decades is the first time I have seen." The old way.
"Oh, I see." Shen Chong's face was full of expressions of "the world is really wonderful", and at this moment, he only heard a loud sound on the surface of the water, and saw a person in a tattered cotton robe walk out of the gap in front of the two large bluestones.
Although the clothes on Shui Rebellion's body are almost rotten into strips of cloth, the "style" can still be seen, which is a shroud jacket.
After the water came out of the crack in the stones, it waded through the river and headed west.
Even in the calm water of rivers and lakes, as long as it is not stagnant water, there will be a flow direction, and the water reverse does not know why, although it is just a dead corpse, but you can clearly feel the subtle changes in the water flow, and always go against the water trend.
"Dao Chief, since the water is flowing from west to east, how can the water go into the cracks in the stones?" I wondered.
"There is a change in the flow of water, and it is certainly not wrong for the water to walk in the opposite direction." Taoist Dao.
Before the words fell, I saw the person wearing filial piety clothes quickly turn to the direction of the water reversal, and then the water waves flowed, and the man in white chased after the water reversal.
Only then did I understand the reason why he was floating on the water, because the lake faintly revealed a piece of golden armor, this person was standing on the back of the golden ghost, and the golden ghost liked to eat corpses the most, so he was attracted by the water reversal.
Lao Dao was quite excited: "There is a good show to watch now, although the water reversal is not strong, it is also a zombie, see how a turtle subdues it." ”
As the golden ghost got closer and closer to the water reversal, there was a soft sound on the surface of the water, and a pair of red eyes stretched out from under the water.
The head of this golden ghost is more than twice as large as the previous one, so it can be seen that Zigong Mountain is not only a golden ghost, and this can only hold an adult steadily, and the size must be huge, how many dead corpses does such a big carapace have to eat, and how much can it be worth? Just thinking about it makes people feel numb.
The man in white pointed the lantern in his hand at the water and kept moving forward, and he could see that the head of the walking corpse was covered with long hair, and the nails of both hands were also swirling, indicating that even after death, his body functions continued to function.
What a terrible phenomenon this is.
Soon the golden ghost is getting closer and closer to the water reversal, but the dead body is not a human after all, and he is not aware of the danger coming, and we can see the appearance of the golden ghost clearly through the light of the lantern.
This golden ghost is not exactly the same as I have seen before, the eyes, nose, mouth and mouth on its head are already somewhat similar to those of people, especially a pair of eyeballs, large and round, with black pupils on a white background.
This is an old turtle that has only become a sperm, and I secretly gasped.
The golden ghost swam more than ten meters away from the water, and then stopped, its huge and thick head slowly hovered up and down like a snake, and kept hissing, and vaguely saw bursts of lilac smoke slowly coming out of its nose.
The water reversal seemed to sense the existence of the golden ghost and suddenly stopped, and then slowly turned around, and when I saw the appearance of the water reversal, I almost screamed in fright.
I really didn't expect that there could be such a terrible, weird, and disgusting appearance in the world.
Maybe it's because it's been buried underwater for too long, this water reversal has been swollen as a whole, a face is blue and white, and it is swollen and swollen by the bubble, at first glance it looks like a big winter melon, the facial features on such a face can be imagined, all of them are deformed, the water is generally thick, the mouth can't be closed, the eyes are round and bulging out, the nose is simply a ball of meat, and the messy long hair is full of aquatic plants and algae creatures, at first glance it looks like someone has spit out a full head.
If it were me and such a walking corpse, I would definitely not bear to look at it for a minute longer, but the man in white didn't even tremble, and with the shaking of the golden ghost's head, the body of the water reverse also began to shake strangely.
The swollen walking corpse under the moonlight seemed to be hooked, stunned, and walked towards the golden ghost step by step, the man in white kept shaking the lantern in his hand, and the water reversed seemed to have consciousness, and his head shook from side to side with the lantern.
I only heard the Taoist priest whisper to himself: "The turtle keeper is really not an ordinary person, and he even has this kind of magic weapon." ”
"What is this?" Shen Chongdao.
"This is called the soul-attracting lamp, so it is said that after death, people set foot on the Yellow Spring under the guidance of ghost lights, so when the soul-attracting lamp is lit in the world, it will attract the attention of ghosts." Taoist Dao.
The water reversal got closer and closer to the golden ghost, and a water wave sounded, and the golden ghost's thick neck suddenly stretched out, and its big mouth bit the neck of the dead corpse fiercely.
Perhaps it was because of the long soaking, the flesh tissue on the neck of the dead corpse had become loose, the head gurgled and rolled into the water, the wound did not have a drop of blood, and the turned flesh tissue turned white.
Then I only heard the splash of water, and several waterlines appeared on the shore of Qingshi Mountain, swimming towards the water rapidly, and instantly arrived at the side, the old turtle suddenly let out a low chirp, and the little turtles that were already close retreated in all directions.
The old turtle slowly raised its thick head, starting from the top and slowly swallowing the swollen corpse of the water inverse, all the way to the waist, its head was as thick as a water tank, and then raised its head, the thick body of the water inverse was lifted high, and soon all of it slid into the belly of the golden ghost.
"Eat and drink enough" It slowly swam towards the bluestone mountain, and several small turtles began to compete for the dead man's head, and soon the flesh and bones were eaten.
The scene of us hiding behind a tree and seeing a turtle eating a corpse was quite terrifying, and the old man clapped his hands and said, "Okay, this is a fortune." ”
I said, "Rich? You didn't raise the golden ghost here. ”
He smiled slightly: "If I didn't raise it, I might not be able to make this fortune, you see what kind of thing I have in my hands." With that, he stretched out his left hand, and saw a large ball like a pearl of the night, shimmering with a smooth smoothness, and could be seen very clearly in the darkness.
"This is the pearl of the night? If there were beads of such a large physique, wouldn't it be priceless? I said enviously.
All three of us put our heads in front of the beads in his hand.
The Taoist priest squeezed hard, only to hear a poof, a cloud of white smoke came out of his hand, I suddenly felt dizzy, it was too late to hold my breath, and I lost consciousness in an instant.
When I woke up again, it was already sunny, and Rocky and Shin Zhong were still unconscious, but fortunately, the corpse pestle of Wulei Town was still there, because I wrapped it in rags, and he didn't think that what was hidden inside was a treasure, otherwise he would have taken it together.
The reason why it is better than them is because after learning the art of torture, the operation of the qi, including the control of the pores of the body, is more comfortable than ordinary people, once it encounters poisonous gas, the qi and pores will close by themselves, so the amount of poisonous gas inhaled is naturally less than theirs.
The Taoist priest is really a demon Tao, but he didn't use the lethal poison gas is really merciful, thinking of what he said before the poison gas, I estimate that the turtle keeper will suffer nine times out of ten, so he quickly ran around the love lake to the side of the bluestone mountain, and sure enough, on the side of the mountain, I saw a big black cave, the cold wind in the cave blew out vigorously, and there was a faint trace of fire.
There was no sound in the silence, and I had the courage to enter the cave with the demon suppression magic weapon in my hand and the imperial washing salt on my body.
However, when I entered the cave, I saw a huge bluestone in front of me, and there was no way out.
