A dilapidated thatched hut, leaking air everywhere, and the dim lights inside were shaking, which looked extremely eerie.

It is difficult to see the concrete scene from the outside, and you can only see the wind constantly blowing the straw away and blowing it towards the sky.

Li He waved his hand and asked the Dao soldiers to follow.

The strange figure of the scarecrow had manifested, and he could even see on the paper armor that they covered the soldiers in the back row, and the thin pieces of grass were entwined.

Can't stay any longer!

Although the thatched hut in front of you is not a good place, if you stay any longer, something will definitely happen.

When the Dao soldiers heard the order, they immediately moved forward, and the backing soldiers placed the big shield behind them and pulled out the charm in case they needed it.

"Sting!"

I only heard that the ancient iron was cut by a hard object, as if it had been cut by a sharp knife.

The arm of the Dao soldier holding the big shield kept trembling, but he never looked back, waiting for the soldier in front of him to finish walking, and they also followed.

Before leaving, he threw human venom behind him, and suddenly heard a strange wailing sound, less than an arm's length away.

"Woohoo!"

Like a night owl next to a lonely grave, its cry is incomparable.

Even the determined Dao soldiers will inevitably panic in their hearts.

Fortunately, not far from the dilapidated house, everyone quickly retreated into the compound.

Li He took the lead in front of the door of the house, his arm papered, and he grabbed the dilapidated grass door and was about to pull it open.

Suddenly, a long knife shuttled out of it and stabbed Li He fiercely.

Although the incident happened suddenly, it was still too slow for Li He. With a slight clash of two fingers, the long knife is clamped.

The knife bearer inside used great strength, but he could not break free from the shackles of the paper hand. Not only that, but the scattered paper ash was spreading along the tip of the knife, and the ominous domain was eroding each other in reverse.

After Li He was promoted to the eighth grade, the corrosiveness of the paper domain was greatly improved, and ordinary people who were contaminated with paper ash so close would be covered in an instant, and their skin would turn into a paper body, which would be reflected on the paper painting.

Even if it is a bad omen, covered by the paper domain, it can be rubbed on the paper painting, briefly restrained, so that it cannot break free.

Just as the paper domain passed through the straw and was about to reach the other party's body, Li He suddenly stopped moving.

Because he sensed the power of familiarity.

"Ling Qiong?"

The grass door suddenly opened in the middle, revealing a man with straw on both hands and arms, and his cloudy and tired eyes poked out. When he found out that it was Li He, a glimmer of hope flashed.

"It's you, Mansion Master Li!"

Li He looked at his eroded body and frowned slightly, the last time he was bitter and tea, he used the power of holding the national order to prevent the bad omen from backlashing, obviously only his ankles were covered with straw. But the current state is simply terrible.

The straw on his hands and feet kept wriggling, twitching greedily like corpse worms.

Ling Qiong's face was pale, her eyes were swollen, and her expression was even extremely low. This is not because his will is weak, but because of the bad omen eroding his wisdom and the consequence of resistance, it shows that the other party is about to be unable to hold on.

"Let's talk about it first."

Ling Qiong got out of the way, the Dao soldiers entered one after another, Li He was the last to enter, and just wanted to turn his head, but heard Ling Qiong hurriedly shouting: "Wait a minute, don't look back, they are watching you behind you!" ”

After that, the straw door was closed, and the sense of crisis in my heart gradually dissipated.

Only by the dim light did he see the situation inside the house.

It seems to be a small room, but it is filled with many people.

There are farmers in ragged clothes, guards with swords and armor, and rich merchants wrapped in brocade. But at this moment, they all showed fear on their faces, and they cowered in the middle of the room, not daring to speak.

That's right, they leaned around the oil lamps, not curled up in the corners. Because at the edge of the dilapidated thatched hut, there are air leaks and hollows everywhere, flashing countless bright red eyes, blinking, staring at the people in the house.

Hideous and greedy, full of blood and rage, they wait silently, food!

As the wind grew stronger, the straw of the hut kept scraping off, and the dilapidated places were torn bigger and bigger, and even blood and water spread in and dripped on the ground. The oil lamp flickered, as if it would go out at any moment.

No wonder no one is in the corner, I'm afraid that many people have been killed before.

Li He turned around and looked at the embarrassed Ling Qiong, the answer might only be asked from the Lord of the Grass Ridge Mansion.

"What happened to Demoiselle Ridge? Why are there so many scarecrows outside the door, all looking here. ”

Ling Qiong swallowed for a moment, her voice a little hoarse:

"The scarecrow is a mark I have left behind, and if someone comes looking for me, it is a guide. It's just that the methods are a bit dangerous because they are 'watched'. ”

Li He heard that the other party's meaning was something, presumably a bad omen that led to the crisis, so he didn't interrupt and continued to listen.

"Originally, after transporting the first batch of Lingmin, I heard the information of the Strange Temple, and I felt that something was wrong, after all, the Grass Ridge was too close.

Then there are rumors that you have subdued the second daughter of the Li family, and the bitter tea is in full swing, so I am ready to lead the rest of the people to march towards the bitter tea together.

Unexpectedly, before he could travel, he encountered a bad omen erosion. ”

When Ling Qiong talked about this, she also showed remorse.

"Remember the strange village I mentioned to you before, when I first visited it, it was very silent, and it was forbidden to live people. But when we went, there was no movement, and I thought that the calamity had passed, so I paid no attention to it, and who thought that when I came out of there, I was contaminated with bad signs, but I did not notice it for a while.

It wasn't until the fog came a few days ago and the hunters said they couldn't get out of the mountain that I realized that the Grass Ridge had been completely sealed. I wanted to send someone for help, but I couldn't get out of the fog at all, and even if I led the guards to explore the way, it was difficult to break through, and I had to return the same way in the end.

As a last resort, I can only gather the people of Ling, use the Taoism and auspiciousness, and reluctantly put together a formation to protect everyone. ”

Li He glanced at the number of people, although the room seemed to be quite large, the capacity was only a few hundred. Thinking of the number of people in Grass Ridge before, he understood that most of them might have encountered an accident.

The scarecrows in the barren fields, and the dim bloodstains in the corners, were all traces of living creatures, but they had turned into blood and grass at the moment.

He turned his head to the middle, looked at the shabby oil lamp with its worn-out base, which burned with a strange and unpleasant smell, and spoke:

"This oil lamp is not simple, it is such a strong omen!"

Ling Qiong nodded:

"Although the straw house can be temporarily covered, it can persist until now, all thanks to this lamp. This is the Dao treasure that my uncle got from Yongcheng, called the corpse thief lamp, which can protect one side if the lamp is not extinguished, but it is also very risky to use.

It is extremely easy to provoke bad things, and these strange bloody eyes gather more and more after the lights are lit, and the 'gaze' is completely concentrated on the grass hut.

As long as the lights go out, no one is immune. ”

Li He probably understood the current predicament of Demoiselle Ridge, and was eroded by the evil omen 'gaze', so he had no choice but to light the corpse thief lamp, but he concentrated all the blood eyes, and it was even more difficult to break free.

As for the so-called gaze, it should be a gaze that cannot be turned around, and the convergence point is the grass hut. Therefore, Ling Qiong and the others couldn't go out, and their group couldn't turn around, as if they were walking in a dead end, and turning around was a ghost attack.

But now there is a more serious problem.

Li He looked at the dimming lights and said:

"The corpse lamp is about to go out!"
