Chapter 9: Corpses

The place where the monster was was some distance from the pillar of light, and it was difficult to see what it was in the dark blue light. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Go over and see. Chen Jiutou raised his head and said to several other people.

Everyone dispersed very tacitly, holding torches, forming a small encirclement, and slowly advancing towards the monster.

Seeing a few people approaching the monster little by little, the monster didn't react, still writhing its body.

Suddenly, the flower path man shouted: "It's Brother Chu."

When several people heard the news, they immediately walked over quickly, and saw that it was indeed a person wrapped in a long yellow cloth full of runes. The yellow cloth was wrapped tightly, and he was struggling to break free.

Several people immediately helped Chu Xiaojiu break free from the yellow cloth.

Chu Xiaojiu's face turned pale after he broke free, and the flower Taoist priest immediately went over to help. asked anxiously, "Brother Chu, it's okay, right?"

Chu Xiaojiu leaned on the flower priest and breathed in a big gulp of air. Then he pressed his stomach harder, brought his head down to the surface of the water, and the water he had just inhaled squirted out of his mouth and nose. After spitting out two or three saliva points, his breathing was much calmer, and his face softened a little.

"It's nothing. ”

"Brother Chu, what happened just now, can you see what attacked you?" Chen Jiu was most concerned about the enemy's situation at this time.

"He attacked me from behind, and I felt a lot of force crush me in the water, and then I was dragged around. I felt a force pressing me into the water, but I couldn't touch anything when I grabbed him with my hands. Chu Xiaojiu fixed his mind and said.

"Then how did you get this yellow cloth?" Ergouzi hurriedly asked.

"This is my ancestral treasure, called the Wufu Scarf. It nullifies any evil power that comes into contact with it. I couldn't touch the entity at the time, so I wondered if it was some kind of demonic power, so I hurriedly pulled it out of my arms and pocketed it with this innocent scarf. That strength was a little less, but I was still able to avoid the scarf that was wrapping around me. I was in a hurry, and there was nothing I could do. He wrapped it in the water and rolled it around himself. It's a good way to do it, and when it's all wrapped, the energy disappears. Chu Xiaojiu explained to everyone what happened to him when he was attacked.

"It's so dangerous! Fortunately, it's Brother Chu, if someone else didn't have this innocent scarf, it is estimated that he would have drowned. The flower arrangement man said with a happy face.

At this time, the others were also secretly glad in their hearts that it was not them who were attacked just now, otherwise they would probably have to confess here.

"It seems that this thing is powerful, fast, adaptable to the surrounding terrain, and has no physical presence yet. What a troublesome opponent. Chen Jiu said in a low voice while looking around.

Several others also picked up torches and watched for movement around them. After observing that there was no abnormality, everyone was led by Chen Jiu and walked towards the crystal pillar.

After taking two steps, they heard a "poof", and everyone saw Ergouzi fall into the water, but did not move.

I saw Ergouzi slapping the water indiscriminately there, shouting "Help! Hurry, come and save me, I'm entangled." ”

Everyone looked at him as if he was fine, but he fell into the water. Lu Qiang immediately went over and pulled him up from the water and said, "What are you talking about, you are making a fuss when you fall on your heels." ”

Just as Ergouzi stood up, two objects also floated.

"Dead man!" the flower priest blurted out.

The crowd saw two male corpses floating on the water not far from them, their backs facing up. From behind, the entire body did not have any wounds.

After all, Chen Jiu was a veteran of tomb robbing, and when he saw the corpse, he said more calmly: "Turn it over and take a look." ”

Chu Xiaojiu immediately turned over the corpse, and everyone saw that the dead body was a strong man. His eyes were wide open, and his eyes were bloodshot. The mouth is wide open, and there is already some deformation. I don't know if it was caused by opening my mouth vigorously in pain, or if it was broken by an external force. His fingers were bent, and his hands were folded as if he were going to hold something. The expression on the whole face is still very vivid, it should not have been dead for a long time, and it looks like it was drowned alive.

The Ikebana man turned over the other corpse as well. Like the death features on that corpse, he was drowned alive.

Chen Jiu took the torch and observed it carefully and said, "It seems that these people were drowned by that thing." ”

"I guess, this way of dying is like a means of that thing. Chu Xiaojiu agreed.

"Ninth Master, there seem to be dead people over here. Lu Qiang shouted.

Several people looked at Lu Qiang and saw him holding a torch and wading in the water. As Lu Qiang walked through, corpses surfaced one after another.

"Ergouzi, flower path people, you follow Lu Qiang. Brother Chu, let's search over here. Chen Jiu ordered.

As several people searched, corpses surfaced.

"Seven, eight. How many flower people do you have?" Chen Jiu asked the flower man.

"We've found twelve here. The ikebana man replied.

"It looks like twenty people are dead here. Chen Jiu said in a deep voice.

Twenty, this number puts a lot of pressure on a few people. Although I don't know how many people came down last time, it must be several times more than them. It's likely that all of them have been wiped out here, and even if anyone escapes, there are only a few of them. Twenty sturdy men were drowned alive, what a formidable opponent they were! It seems that it is basically impossible for them to escape in one piece.

"Chen Jiu, do you see someone you know here?" the flower path man walked over with something and asked Chen Jiu tentatively.

"Joke, there's probably a bunch of dead ghosts I know here. Chen Jiu replied contemptuously.

"Yes, I found something on a person's body, do you know it?" the flower path man walked up to Chen Jiu with the thing.

"What's it? I'll take a look. Chen Jiu said, looking at the hand of the flower path man.

"This is it. Hanamichi said, raising a long knife that was shiny.

"Japanese sword, this is a long knife that is used exclusively by the Japanese. Could it be that they are all Japanese?" Chen Jiu asked suspiciously.

"Don't pretend to be Chen Jiu, who doesn't know that you hooked up with the Japanese recently. The flower path man said fiercely.

"Yes, I did business with the Japanese. In this world, whoever gives me more money will sell my things. Nothing else. Chen Jiu said confidently.

"Then tell me who the main family is this time, is it Japanese?" asked the Ikebana man toughly.

According to the rules of the trade, I can't reveal the news of the master's house, and you can only do things when you take the money. Chen Jiu retorted.

"Yes, Daoist, you are too wide!" Ergouzi also helped Chen Jiu speak.

"You idiot. The flower path man scolded Ergouzi fiercely.

"Chen Jiu, you say, did the Japanese not get the things and asked you to find our brother to come down and fill in the trap?" the flower path man questioned Chen Jiu forcefully and directly.
