Chapter 509: Black Rakshasa (I)
Li Qing has also seen beggars in Guobei County, but the number is not very large, and the number of the entire county is less than a palm.
But in Tiantai County, beggars are very common.
Li Qing and Nie Xiaoqian have only walked two streets, and there are no less than dozens of beggars they have seen.
It was almost autumn at the moment, and the light wind that blew from time to time at night made those beggars shiver even when they fell asleep.
Fortunately, most of the beggars are gathered together, close to each other, and can keep each other warm.
But there were only two beggars who were excluded by many beggars.
It was a middle-aged man with long, gray and messy hair, and a boy of six or seven years old.
The two of them shrugged over the cold street, walking slowly, looking particularly bleak.
Li Qing and Nie Xiaoqian, who had disappeared, were not far behind them, following them all the time.
Nie Xiaoqian didn't understand why Li Qing, such a zombie king, would follow the two beggars, but she didn't dare to ask more, just followed closely.
The man in front of him seemed to be seriously ill, his arms were clenched, his body was trembling all the time, and he was staggering when he walked.
The young man beside him was holding a dirty and broken bowl with his head down.
Li Qing followed them down the entire street, not only did he not have the slightest impatience on his face, but listened to the conversation between father and son with a serious face.
"Da, Dachang, the old man Liu at the east end of South Street is kind and kind....... Ahem, if you really can't please it in the future...... When you eat, you go to ....... Just go to him. But, but you can't always go, that Liu Laohan has no children, and it is not easy to live. ”
"Also, if you meet a good Samaritan, you will be rewarded on weekdays...... Don't ask for some money...... Don't spend it indiscriminately, save it, and when that old man Liu passes away, buy him a thin coffin and ....... for him See him off!"
"There is also the Li family on the corner of the street, cough cough cough, they, they are also well-wishers, but his family has no heirs, if you go to his house to beg for food, go to the temple to pray for his family......."
As he said this, the middle-aged man suddenly fell backwards and fell to the ground facing the sky.
The young man took a few steps before he reacted, and quickly turned around, only to see the middle-aged man lying motionless on the ground behind him.
After the young man was stunned for a moment, he hurriedly ran a few steps and squatted on the side of the middle-aged man, and began to shake uncontrollably.
"Daddy, Daddy, what's wrong with you, Daddy, Daddy, wake up!"
After he screamed a few times, as if he finally realized something, he suddenly lay on the middle-aged man's chest and began to cry.
At this moment, he finally knew why his father, who rarely spoke on weekdays, had been babbling on the road all night.
It turned out that he already knew that his time was short, so he would babble all night.
Not far behind the young man, Li Qing suddenly stopped and squinted at the middle-aged man's corpse.
Nie Xiaoqian on the side also hurriedly stopped and followed Li Qing's gaze.
I saw that next to the man's corpse, a translucent figure suddenly floated, which was the man's soul.
However, the man had just died, so his soul's eyes were full of confusion, and he just stood quietly next to the corpse.
But at this moment, a sudden suction force came from not far away, sucking the soul of the middle-aged man directly off the ground, and in the blink of an eye, it penetrated the building next door, and I don't know where it was sucked to.
After seeing this scene, Nie Xiaoqian's eyes suddenly widened.
And Li Qing squinted his eyes and said, "Let's go, catch up and have a look!"
As soon as the words fell, he flew off the ground and through the wall where the spirit had disappeared.
Nie Xiaoqian hurriedly chased after her.
After penetrating an unknown number of buildings, they finally saw the man's soul.
But I saw that the soul was floating in a large courtyard, and in the courtyard, a young man with a black gourd was standing.
The young man was very burly, and his face was full of fierceness, and his gloomy eyes seemed to be able to see the soul, and when the soul of the middle-aged man flew into the courtyard, he shook the gourd and sucked the soul in.
At the same time, more than a dozen souls flew in from different directions and were sucked in by him.
The moment Li Qing saw this young man, he raised his eyebrows and exclaimed, "What a fierce yin qi!"
At this time, Nie Xiaoqian happened to fly through a building to Li Qing's side.
After hearing Li Qing's words, she subconsciously looked at the young man.
Then his face changed slightly, and he exclaimed, "I've seen this person!"
Li Qing looked at her sideways, frowned, and said, "This person has been to Lanruo Temple?"
Nie Xiaoqian shook her head, bit her lip and said, "I saw him seventeen years ago, when he was still a child!
After Li Qing heard this, he narrowed his eyes and said, "You mean, he is that Yuan Batian?"
Nie Xiaoqian nodded heavily.
Li Qing nodded, and then looked at the young man seriously.
I saw that the young man had collected more than twenty souls in the courtyard before covering the mouth of the gourd with a stopper, and then muttered excitedly: "As long as I collect thirty-one more souls, I can get the approval of the Lord!"
After the words fell, he hugged the black gourd and prepared to go back to the house.
Seeing this, Li Qing said, "Xiaoqian, you go to him!"
Although Nie Xiaoqian looked puzzled, she still flew down from the wall and silently stuck behind Yuan Batian.
But the moment her figure touched Yuan Batian's back, she saw a burst of black light suddenly appear on Yuan Batian's back, and then Nie Xiaoqian screamed and was swallowed up by half of her body by the black light.
It was as if there was some kind of terrifying creature in the black light.
Seeing this, Li Qing flew down, grabbed Nie Xiaoqian's arm, and dragged her out of the black light.
As a result, when Nie Xiaoqian was dragged out by him, there were many blue and purple dry palms on the half of her body that was engulfed by the black light before, and the arms of these palms were all in the black light.
Therefore, when Li Qing pulled Nie Xiaoqian out, he also brought out these arms by the way.
The owners of these arms seemed to be competing with Li Qing for strength, and they kept trying hard to catch Nie Xiaoqian back in the black light.
Li Qing snorted coldly at the moment, and slapped the black light with a palm.
So I only heard a 'boom', and the layer of black light shattered like a mirror.
At the same time, a startling sound came from the shattered black light.
At this moment, Yuan Batian, who was originally motionless because of the appearance of the black light, suddenly shook his whole body, and then slowly turned around.
I saw that his face was blue, and his eyes were full of hollowness.
"Who are you?"
He asked.
There was coldness in his voice.
