Chapter 26: In the Neighborhood

This is too terrifying, who can imagine dozens of centipedes crawling in the body.

I swallowed my saliva, I don't know if it was psychological, I just felt a little itchy all over my body, like there were a lot of tentacles crawling on my skin.

"You're putting a needle in his finger and asking Yujing to spit out the centipede!" I said anxiously.

But Wang Tong shook his head: "It's useless, if there is no antidote, as long as there is one in his body, it can kill him." ”

Wang Tong looked at me puzzled, so he explained: "This kind of Gu centipede reproduces very quickly, grows very quickly, in a few days, it can become an adult, and the next thing is to lay eggs, if these little centipedes are allowed to lay eggs in the body, can people still live?" ”

I couldn't help but shudder, the methods of raising ghosts are too ruthless!

"This, do you have a solution to this?" I asked.

Wang Tong shook his head in embarrassment: "No, the antidote to each Gu is different, if you want to configure the antidote to this Gu, it won't take a few months to develop it." ”

"Months? He's going to die in a few days! I yelled at Wang Tong anxiously.

Wang Tong was not angry, he took out a pill and fed it to Yu Jing: "This is an elixir that inhibits Gu poison, it can alleviate the incidence of illness for a few days, now we have to find the ghost keeper quickly and force him to hand over the antidote." ”

"Is there any way you can find him?" I asked Xiang Wangtong.

Wang Tong pondered for a moment and looked at me hesitating: "Yes, yes, I just don't know if you want to." ”

"Me?" I pointed my finger at myself.

"Yes, the ghost keeper wants your soul, that is, you are a baby pimple in his eyes, and if you want to commit suicide outside, you say that he is not in a hurry." A smile appeared at the corner of Wang Tong's mouth.

"You mean to make me pretend to kill myself and force him to show up?" I looked at him in amazement.

Wang Tong smiled and nodded at me: "That's right, it's up to you to dare." ”

I turned my head to look at Yujing, who was confused, gritted my teeth and said, "What's not to dare to do, let me do it?" ”

Wang Tong turned his head and walked towards the door: "Follow me." ”

I turned to Yang Zi'an behind me and said, "You stay here, don't go out by yourself." ”

Yang Zi'an grabbed my arm with a frightened expression: "What are the Gu you just talked about, and what are the ghost keepers?" ”

I didn't answer directly, because I couldn't tell you anything about it for a while, and saving Yujing was now a race against time.

I sighed and replied, "If I can come back alive, I'll tell you about it." ”

"Okay, be careful, don't forget to come back alive and tell me." She deliberately accentuated the pronunciation of the word alive.

Yang Zi'an faded away from the horror and looked at me calmly.

I turned around and was just about to leave, but suddenly remembered, turned around and took out a yellow talisman that Wang Tong gave me before, and said, "You take this talisman, and if there is anything strange, you will use this piece of paper to hit him." ”

With that, I took the rusty sword and ran out quickly.

Wang Tong waited quietly for me at the door, saw me come out, gave me a look, and I followed him upstairs.

Looking at the direction I was going, I knew exactly where I was going next.

That's right, it's to go to the rooftop!

Wang Tong took me to the rooftop, and the cool summer breeze blew through my hair, which made me feel a lot more sober.

Wang Tong walked to the rooftop, looked down, turned back to me and said, "Come, stand up!" ”

I was stupid when I heard it, didn't I say that I was pretending to commit suicide? What do you do standing on the concrete guardrail of the rooftop?

"I'm not going, I'm standing so high, I won't have to fall down in case of a gust of wind." I quickly shook my head.

"Just rest assured, the ghost keepers won't let you fall." Wang Tong shrugged his shoulders and said.

I heard something in his words and hurriedly asked, "What do you mean?" You mean the ghost keepers are around here? ”

Wang Tong nodded lightly, looked at the brightly lit city and said, "That's right, it takes a certain distance to control Gu worms, and this distance can only be close, not far." ”

"You mean, he's right near us?" I said in surprise.

Wang Tong said firmly: "Well, maybe it's in this building, it can be in this community, or it can be in the neighborhood next door, and the distance is no more than one mile." ”

I took a deep breath, walked to the rooftop, and stood tremblingly on the stone platform.

I stood up straight, only to feel my body shaking back and forth, I hope Wang Tong didn't lie to me! But it's impossible to say that he lied to me, and he has no reason to joke about such a dangerous thing.

Wang Tong saw me standing up, he took out a piece of yellow paper without drawing symbols, took out a lighter and lit the yellow paper, gestured at me a few times out of thin air, and then threw the yellow paper in his hand to the ground.

Then he said to me, "Wait! Within a minute, the ghost keeper would appear. ”

I don't know if what he said is true or not, anyway, I don't want to stay on this rooftop for a minute, looking at the ground dozens of meters high, my heart is pounding and beating rapidly, for fear that I won't stand firm and fall.

After about two minutes, I just wanted to come down, but I felt the temperature around me drop, and it became a little cold.

Wang Tong and I were both open, but there was not a single ghost around, but when I turned my head, I saw a miserable human head suddenly poking out in front of me.

Half of my face was already showing white bones, the other half of my face was rotting, and I could even see a lot of small insect holes, and there seemed to be white worms wriggling in the holes.

"Ahh I screamed, my legs went limp, and I fell off the building.
