Chapter 18: The Paper Girl
"What the hell is that?"
Zhong Min looked at the floating woman in horror, muttering unconsciously.
The others also noticed the strangeness that was getting closer, dressed in paper clothes, plain white, with a haggard face and bloody eyes.
The woman was fluttering, not moving slowly, and the paper path spread at a very fast speed, eroding the land of bitter tea.
After all, it's just a place of lush vegetation, and it's quite aura, but it's not enough for a truly terrifying omen.
Seeing this, several guards subconsciously picked up the remaining fierce rockets and shot them straight away.
A few arrows were not bad, and they were shot at her body, but there were no fierce flames like just now, and a few dull and dark sounds were heard from a distance, like firecrackers. Its form paused for a moment, then moved forward again.
The terrifying head, and the hollow and tragic eye frames, slowly turned around.
The guards who had just drawn their bows and shot arrows saw each other's faces and eye sockets.
No, it should be said to be seen.
"Ahh
The guards covered their eyes, blood flowed from between their fingers, and they rolled on the ground in unbearable pain.
"My eyes, my eyes!"
Zhong Min's eyes were also a little red at the moment, and a jade pendant on his waist was shattered, and he didn't dare to look at it anymore.
"Don't move, don't look at her!"
"Hurry up, this bad omen is too vicious for us to deal with."
But the paper girl in the distance is getting closer and closer, and the paper road under her feet is about to be paved here.
"Quick, carry the wounded on our backs, let's retreat!"
Zhong Min shouted for the uninjured people, carried a few guards with damaged eyes on his back, and quickly evacuated.
Paper Road stared at them as if it had eyes, and it struck with great speed. And the paper girl was on the white paper road, just by raising her feet slightly, she instantly crossed more than ten meters, and in the blink of an eye, she came to the center of the bitter tea field, and she could catch up with it in just a few breaths.
At this time, even the person who reacted slowly was aware of the crisis behind him, even if the guard who had experienced a bad omen, his heart was beating non-stop, and his legs were constantly swinging.
With the horror of the paper girl, the fierce rockets have no effect on it, and if they are caught up, there is only one way to die. But now it seems that being caught up is an inevitable result.
There are even timid village warriors, crying while running, so scared that they can't control themselves.
Seeing that the paper road was about to catch the last person, an arrow suddenly shot from the grass, neither gold nor jade, extremely sharp, and extremely fast, straight into the abdomen of the paper girl.
The arrow was tied with a thick talisman, and the dark blue talisman flickered, and a large number of water droplets suddenly oozed out, dripping on the lower body of the paper girl and on the paper road.
The paper, which had been fluttering, suddenly became wet and heavy, and the speed of progress dropped sharply, slower than that of an ordinary baby.
Li He walked out of the tea field, looked at the restricted paper girl, and stared at the familiar cheek of the other party, which was the face of the maid of the Zhen family, but it seemed to be mixed with something unfamiliar, becoming more bewitching and terrifying.
The paper man is indeed a little afraid of water and fire, and a sufficient amount of water yin charms make the paper maid slow down. In fact, the last time he was next to the bitter tea spiritual spring, Li He confirmed that the water system Dao method had a slight impact, and he was even more associated with the possibility of a fire.
This time, Zhong Min was sent to gather everyone and use a fierce rocket to obstruct it, I wanted to try it, but I didn't expect the effect to be surprisingly good, and directly destroyed the first carriage, and the weirdness did not spread.
But these Dao talismans can only deal with ordinary erosion, like the carriage, although it seems to be dangerous and full of flesh and blood, but it is only the residue after the bad omen has been eaten, and it may be very harmful to ordinary people, but there is not much residual death, so it can be burned out.
But the paper maid can chase from Li Zhen to Kuchaling, it should be that her bad omen source sensed something and locked her fate.
Even if the catalogue cuts off the causal line, the bad omen that can invade Li Zhen and not be discovered must be seven grades, and the bad omen sent must be more than nine grades, and it is dangerous and abnormal, which is known from the troubled paper man who obtained it from his own home.
If there is any good news, it is the paper maid's hole card, and Li He generally knows that it should still be a means of trouble.
Seeing that the lord of the mansion blocked the bad omen, the frightened guards suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and called out one after another.
"Mansion Master!" "Mansion Master!"
Li He waved his hand and motioned to Zhong Min.
"Retreat, I'll fend off her."
Hearing this, Zhong Min no longer hesitated, and immediately waved everyone to evacuate, in the face of such a terrifying omen, staying here would bind the mansion master.
"Be careful!"
After saying a word, he turned and left, and disappeared into the tea field in a short time.
Li He turned to look at the paper maid, the water droplets on her body were scattering, the water yin charm could not stop the other party, so he could only delay it, buying time for the Lingmin to escape, and he was not prepared to rely on these small means to deal with the bad omen.
The paper maid turned her head to look over, her empty and terrifying eyes stared at Li He, and she suddenly felt that there was an invisible thin thread connecting him and the other party, and she wanted to break free, but she became tighter and tighter.
The pitch black flow in Li He's eyes, without a drop of human emotion, suddenly the invisible thin thread stretched to an extremely tight point, and then broke.
Li He and the paper maid took a step back at the same time, and even the paper road that was spread out scattered scattered, like a crying soul scattering paper money on the road at night.
But at this moment, beside the withered bitter tea tree, a person suddenly stood upright, stepped on the paper road, and went straight to the maidservant.
The road on the ground, which had been flat, stood up like a wall in front of the attackers.
A little sand and gravel splashed up, and it actually shattered into powder, comparable to a paper wall of stubborn stones, but it was poked out of a hole in the middle.
Before the maid's bleeding eyes could catch a glimpse of anything, the red tongue swept over her head, and with a "chirp", she was dragged across the paper wall and swallowed into her throat.
The maid's body did not move, but her neck twisted like a twist, and her entire head was swallowed by the cracked mouth.
The attacker was naturally Li He's troubled clone, and at the moment its head was like a big-headed fish, without any teeth, and its blood-red tongue wrapped around the paper maid, dripping blood.
The paper maid began to struggle, and the clone giant tongue gradually covered with paper, and the sides became stiff. But don't forget, it's the Troubled Paper Man that is dealing with it, and this erosion is quite weak, and extremely slow, far less than the speed at which the tongue of blood devours it.
Li He came prepared, the blood tongue had been soaked in the spiritual spring for a long time, and it was fused by the catalogue, which had a special restraint effect on the paper figures.
In addition, in this bitter tea field, the paper man vaguely has some strength bonuses, and he launched a fatal blow at a critical moment, and it was his strange aura that was hidden, and the maid did not notice it.
After a long time, the paper maid stopped shaking.
Under the continuous licking of the bloody tongue, the fragile neck finally twisted to the limit, and broke with a "crak", and then a big head fell into the mouth.
The handmaiden, who had lost her head, froze in place, motionless.
Although the organ parts of the bad omen are not as important as those of people, according to Li He's control of the Troubled Paper Man, most of its bad sources are concentrated in the head, or the place of smearing impressions.
Only the face will be given a rich makeup, which looks very weird, but in fact, it is also caused by the accumulation of bad sources. Therefore, swallowing the head of the paper maid is most likely to contain the other party.
Li He wanted to move and take a look at the situation, but he stopped in place, just because he felt a little uneasy in his heart.
Although he has been preparing for a long time, and has gathered the people of Kuchaling to help with the Dao Fu, the key is to have a catalogue in hand, and to control the Nine Grades of bad omen, which is no longer the same as the down-and-out son of Li Zhen at the beginning.
But it seems a little too easy to deal with bad omens.
Think back to the nine deaths in the dream, and those strange events in Li Zhen.
His uneasiness grew stronger, and he almost roared.
"That's not right!"
The paper maid who had lost her head finally fell, but instead of being broken, she knelt down on her knees, supported by her paper arms, as if she was going to meet something.
The shredded paper in the sky is still floating in the air, the bitter tea is dead everywhere it goes, and an eerie and terrifying aura comes from the surface, even the clouds above the head seem to be dense, and the eyes are gray and depressing.
Li He's eyes stared at the last car parked on the official road, and he didn't notice it just now, because the car was brightly colored, completely different from the pale funeral car.
But now that the sky is dark, the car is still conspicuous, and the whole is detached from reality, like a paper car smeared with paint, crooked.
The curtain opened slightly, revealing a hand, dry and stiff, dark brown skin wrapped in bones, with a paper bracelet on its wrist.
"Hee-hee!"
The light laughter came from the car, but in Li He's ears, it was a screaming scream.
……
The dilapidated thatched hut suddenly rushed in a person, staggered, and knocked on the door.
"Lao Zhang, Lao Zhang, it's me who has come to change the fertilizer."
There was a stirring in the room, followed by a gloomy reply.
"Brother Liuwu, I've been waiting for you for a long time for this business, fast forward, fast forward!"
With that, he opened the door, and a figure stepped into the darkness.
A quick knife came from behind the door, and it was able to hold Liu Wu's neck, only to hear the old man Zhang sneer.
"Hurry up and hand over the secret recipe for medicinal fertilizer, there is still ......"
Before he finished speaking, Old Man Zhang seemed to have his tongue cut out, and he was speechless, and his hand holding the knife trembled even more.
In the faint light, the familiar Liu Wu's face was long gone, and he was stuck to a drawn piece of paper, only embedded in the skin, without a nose, eyes, or ears, only a mouth, and his mouth was full of wriggling shredded paper.
It reads:
"Save my daughter!"
