Chapter 223: The Necklace

Ni Yuanyuan faced the blade, and her face was pale: "Li Xin, what are you doing here?" ”

I used the tip of my knife to pick Ni's round neckline: "What do you have on you?" ”

"Nothing...... Ni Yuanyuan had nothing special on her neck except for a pearl necklace.

I frowned. Just now, the demon chicken Dahei could obviously attack Ni Yuanyuan's head and kill her with a single blow, but the position it chose was Ni Yuanyuan's neck, and judging from the state of the chicken claws, it wanted to grab something.

What exactly is there about Ni Yuanyuan that deserves its attention?

When I was confused, Tan Yue suddenly picked up the big black on the ground, came to Ni Yuanyuan's side, and said coldly: "Don't move, otherwise I will kill you immediately!" ”

Ni Yuanyuan was already so frightened that the six gods had no master, and when Tan Yue yelled at him like this, he simply stood in place and didn't dare to move anymore.

After Tan Yue dropped another drop of blood on Jinbei, he put Jinbei on the ground: "Li Xian, you carry the chicken, just stand in my current position, don't get too far away from Ni Yuanyuan, and don't get too close." ”

I didn't know why I held the big black in my hand, and Tan Yue cautiously approached Ni Yuanyuan's back: "Bow your head and show your neck." ”

Tan Yue's words, Ni Yuanyuan didn't dare not listen, she couldn't see what Tan Yue was doing, she could only lower her head and tremble like a death row prisoner.

Tan Yue completely ignored Ni Yuanyuan's reaction, stretched out his hand, carefully pinched the pearl necklace, gently took off the hook, and lifted the necklace.

"Let the gray ash wrap it up, hurry up and ......" Tan Yue spoke, the pearl necklace in her hand suddenly twisted, and two rows of things like insect feet stretched out on both sides of the necklace at the same time, hooking Tan Yue's fingers.

"Stand back!" As if he had been burned by fire, Tan Yue shook his hands and threw the necklace out quickly.

The pearl necklace fell to the ground, and after twisting half a circle, it raised its head like a snake, and when it turned to Tan Yue with its head held high, dozens of pairs of pink feet stretched out from top to bottom of the body at the same time, and a pair of tentacles also popped up on the head.

"Centipede!"

I didn't expect that the pearl necklace hanging around Ni Yuanyuan's neck would be a centipede as white as jade and a foot long.

"With the big black!"

Tan Yue screamed, and he stubbornly protected the mirage dragon golden shell in his hand, and took a few steps back one after another.

I didn't dare to let go of the big black easily, so I reached out and wiped it vigorously on the chicken's mouth, loosening the spider silk that was wrapped around the chicken's mouth. After Da Hei got out of trouble, he immediately let out a long angry roar, and the centipede, which was still showing off its might just now, suddenly wilted and shrank on the ground motionless.

I took the opportunity to raise a knife and slashed at the centipede, and after the blade hit the ground, the blade went straight into the soil two inches, and the centipede I cut was broken in two along the blade, and the blade was pasted one after the other. By the time I put the knife away, the centipede came out of the dirt and swooped down on my feet.

I didn't expect the centipede's body to be so flexible, and it was cut into the soil by a sharp blade, and it didn't even break into two pieces. It was too late for me to dodge its attack, so in a hurry, I simply handed the big black over.

The demon chicken Da Hei didn't care whether I was holding it in my hand or not, and stretched out his head to peck at the centipede, but the centipede was in front of the lightning-fast chicken beak, twisted his body violently, and after dodging Da Hei's fatal blow, he twisted his body and bit the big black cockscomb at an incredible angle.

I was so shocked that I quickly withdrew Da Hei, but the centipede swooped down on Da Hei relentlessly.

I have always lived in the Northeast, where the weather is cold and not suitable for the growth of poisonous insects, and I have never seen a centipede that can grow more than half a foot, and of course I don't understand the habits of centipedes. Later, I learned that although the rooster is the nemesis of poisonous insects, poisonous insects sometimes eat chickens in turn.

Roosters eat centipedes, not only by their mouths, but also by their claws. Now that Da Hei is in my hand, it is like a dead chicken, and the centipede is naturally not afraid of it, so he simply turns around and prepares to kill Da Hei.

The centipede was so fast that I couldn't find a chance to fight back except to dodge back and forth. In just a few seconds, he was forced to scrambled by the centipede, and he was almost bitten on his ankle several times.

I also knew that the best thing to do was to let go of the big black and let it swallow the centipede. But once I let go, it will be difficult to catch Da Hei back, and it is even more difficult to predict what variables will arise later.

Or, let the centipede bite the big black first, and wait for the centipede to relax, and then I will take the opportunity to make a move. But what if the centipede bites the big black to death?

The centipede is a well-known poisonous insect, this centipede must be born with a different species, and the poison is even more violent, I dare not guarantee that the big black can resist its toxin.

Just when I was in a dilemma, Tan Yue suddenly rushed to my side, and saw the opportunity to yearn for the centipede's body and sprinkled a handful of white powder on it.

I watched as a puff of green smoke emanated from the centipede's body, squeaky and shrunk into a ball in the powder, and the hideous exposed feet shrank under my stomach again, turning into a string of pearl necklaces again.

I was surprised, "What's going on?" ”

"It's the nemesis of the mirage Jinbei - the white jade centipede." Tan Yue explained: "The white jade centipede lives in the reef along the coast, and as long as it retracts its insect feet, it can become something like a pearl necklace. Once the person who catches the sea picks it up as a necklace, he will die. ”

"The white jade centipede can burrow into the human body along the fisherman's seven orifices, and it will not come out until it eats up the internal organs of the person, and it is an out-and-out poisonous insect in the coastal area." Tan Yue said: "When the master passed the mirage golden shell to me, he repeatedly told me to be careful of the white jade centipede. As long as I take the mirage golden shell to the coast, it is possible to attract white jade centipedes. The medicinal powder she gave me was specially used to restrain the white jade centipede. ”

I whispered to myself, "No wonder that old horse wants to buy a white jade centipede, it turns out that he has already seen that the white jade centipede is on us." ”

I looked up and asked, "Is this white jade centipede dead?" ”

"No, it's just dormant for the time being." Tan Yue pinched the centipede's head, gently lifted it up, took out a cloth bag from his body, and put the centipede in: "This medicinal powder can make the white jade centipede fall into a coma, about seven days at a time." After seven days, it will wake up. After half an hour of activity, I can apply the medicine again. The white jade centipede is a good thing, and it may be able to sell for a lot of money. ”

"Ahem...... Greedy! ”

I turned my head to look at Ni Yuanyuan: "How do you explain the origin of this white jade centipede?" ”

Ni Yuanyuan touched her neck with a pale face, and she couldn't stop shivering on her body, but there was a coldness in her tone: "Isn't that what you gave me?" Why do you ask me the other way around? ”

"When did I give you something like this?" Tan Yue and I glanced at each other.

Ni Yuanyuan said without hesitation: "At about eight o'clock in the morning of the fifth day, you went to my room alone, took out the pearl necklace and gave it to me, saying that it was for me as a gift. ”

"After I refused, you said that you didn't mean anything else, that the place you are going to next is very dangerous, and you may encounter ghosts, this pearl necklace is blessed by you with mana, it can ward off evil spirits, and I wear it, which can reduce a lot of trouble for you."

Ni Yuanyuan paused: "I said that I wouldn't trouble you, so you were in a hurry, and said that if you don't wear a necklace, you won't take me to the ghost market, so I reluctantly agreed." I wanted to wear it myself, but you didn't agree with anything, so you had to help me ......put it on yourself."

Ni Yuanyuan's face turned red and said, "You also touched me while you were wearing a necklace for me." I wanted to give you back the necklace, but you said, don't forget the terms we agreed beforehand, you touched me just to collect some interest. When you went out, you warned me again and again that you should not take off the necklace, and if I dared to take it off, I would be driven away immediately, no matter where I was. ”

I was dumbfounded, and subconsciously said, "That person is not me!" ”

"Of course it won't be you!" Tan Yue said: "If you want to disguise the white jade centipede as a necklace and wear it on your body, you must stuff its tail foot into the centipede's mouth, let it bite its own tail, and coil it around the human neck. This requires not only special techniques, but also a long period of practice, and the slightest mistake can lead to a centipede bite and death on the spot. Even ordinary drug masters can't do it, let alone you? ”

Tan Yue looked at me and said, "Who is pretending to be you?" ”
