Volume 1 Bronze Mask Chapter 51 Alien Demons
Chen Yu was distracted, and the white tiger galloping under him suddenly braked suddenly, and the huge inertia between the lines made his body lean forward softly, and his hands unconsciously hugged Caiyun's slender waist.
Caiyun didn't continue to make fun of it, and when the white tiger stopped, he turned over and jumped down.
Only then did Chen Yu see that in the middle of the road not far ahead, there was a mother and daughter kneeling on the opposite side with yellow muscles and thin muscles.
The woman in her thirties had a sallow complexion, and her lips were cracked with blood, apparently on the verge of dehydration.
And the five or six-year-old girl she was holding in her arms, her eyes were closed, but her brows were tightly wrinkled together, and she seemed to be suffering greatly even in her sleep.
"High Priest, please save my child!"
Caiyun took two steps forward to help the young mother, but the woman stubbornly refused to get up, and couldn't help but beg with tears streaming down her face:
"Please save my child......"
Chen Yu also walked over and looked intently at the girl sleeping in the woman's arms. There was an imperceptible black aura wandering around her forehead. He reached out and gently opened the girl's eyelids, and the woman's lips moved, but did not stop.
An erect white line appeared at the girl's pupils, but the whites of the eyes were gray-black, and the whole eye looked black and hollow, which was extremely strange.
When the blood line saw the sun, it seemed to be a little afraid, and suddenly shrank and disappeared.
At this moment, a sneer suddenly appeared on the corner of the girl's mouth, and it quickly faded, and if it was not for careful observation, it would hardly have noticed this subtle change.
This symptom is really weird, but Chen Yu has a bizarre thought lingering in his heart, the girl is not sick, but polluted by some mysterious force.
Seeing Chen Yu's movements, Caiyun shook her head gently, she looked at her mother who was kneeling in front of her and was on the verge of collapse, and whispered: "I'm sorry, I won't be able to leave her!" ”
Chen Yu was stunned.
The woman slowly raised her head in despair, and then burst into a terrible cry. It's just that tears can't flow from the dry eye sockets for a long time.
Caiyun turned away in silence.
Chen Yu glanced back and opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say, so he could only follow Caiyun away.
"What's the matter with the kid?"
On the way, Chen Yu's mind kept reminding him of the scene just now, and he felt very uncomfortable. I couldn't help but ask.
"You can save her, right?"
Caiyun replied in a low voice: "Yes, no!" ”
"If you have any scruples, you can tell me the method, and I will save her!" Chen Yu said hurriedly.
Caiyun sighed lowly, her white and soft fingers gently brushed the side of Chen Yu's face, but her eyes were a little hollow, and she didn't know where her eyes fell.
"Alien! It's coming at me for tens of thousands! That kid was also implicated by me. ”
Chen Yu shook her hand, "Will it bring you danger?" ”
Caiyun shook her head, reluctant to say more.
"It's not time to face them head-on, but it's almost there!"
Back in Momoyama, for a long time, Caiyun was so worried that he didn't say a word, just sat on a wicker chair under the eaves, looking at the sky in the distance and was stunned.
Chen Yu suddenly felt that the girl in front of him was wrapped in a mist, so mysterious, obviously beside her, but like a floating cloud in the sky, it was difficult to capture the traces of her heart.
"I'm a bad person! Obviously has the ability to help her, but selfishly sees death and does not save her! ”
Her voice was hoarse and gloomy, and Chen Yu's heart was shocked when she heard it. He suddenly realized that the decision just now was so difficult and torturous for Caiyun.
Chen Yu reached out and put his arm around her shoulder, took her into his arms, and patted her palm gently, as if comforting the little girl who had lost the apple.
"I'm sorry, you didn't do anything wrong. Everyone has something to be right, don't be yourself. ”
Caiyun suddenly looked up at Chen Yu and asked suspiciously, "Why did you suddenly apologize?" ”
Chen Yu was stunned for a moment and said with a wry smile: "Although we have only known each other for two days, I have a strange feeling, as if I can hear the emotions in your heart. ”
"Like just now, I heard your sadness."
Caiyun's body suddenly softened, as if a hard shell had been removed, her face was buried deep in Chen Yu's chest, and her hands were tightly wrapped around Chen Yu.
A warm feeling came from his chest, Chen Yu sighed lightly, and hugged the sad girl in his arms a little tighter.
"Let's go see that little girl, if we don't take a look for ourselves, I'm afraid that I will have regrets in this life."
……
In a small village in the valley, more than a dozen villagers are gathered in a small courtyard. In the middle of the crowd was the woman holding her daughter.
At this moment, her eyes were empty, as if she had lost her soul, and she just gently patted the back of the child in her arms, ignoring the words of others around her.
The elders in the crowd sighed and persuaded: "The baby is gone, the daughter-in-law of the Zhang family, don't let the baby go." Besides, the old and young masters in the village will help to make the baby's future affairs decent. ”
"Yes, sister-in-law of the Zhang family, let the baby enter the earth as soon as possible, so that she can be reincarnated earlier, you and your eldest brother are still young, maybe the baby's soul will be reincarnated in your house!"
"It's hot now, and it's been delayed for a long time, don't damage the baby's body."
“……”
The woman smiled reluctantly and said, "Village Chief, Aunt Liu, what are you talking about!" My baby isn't dead, she's just asleep, ...... tomorrow No, wake up in a little while. ”
The other villagers were still persuading, and the village chief waved his hand, "Let her stay with the baby for another day, and we will come back early tomorrow morning." The Zhang family boy went out with the army, and our villagers have to help with it, don't let outsiders see the joke! ”
"Let's go back first! He, Aunt Liu, your house is close, pay more attention to the movement here. As he spoke, the village chief gestured at one of the old women.
"Don't worry, nothing will happen with me watching. Let's disperse first, let the daughter-in-law of the Zhang family be quiet. ”
Soon after the crowd had dispersed, a cold night breeze poured into the courtyard, and the woman tightened her clothes, but she still felt a chill.
"Baby, it's cold, my mother will carry you into the house, and I'll cook dinner when you wake up!"
Not far away, Chen Yu and Caiyun were hiding on the side of the road, looking at this scene, their mood was a little low.
The girl is dead, and her mother is unwilling to accept this cruel reality.
"We're late...... Let's go back! ”
Caiyun turned away, his expression gloomy.
Chen Yu clenched his fists and released them after a while. Just as he was about to turn around, he suddenly saw a black shadow appear in the courtyard.
At this time, the sun had already set, night had just fallen, the moon and stars had not yet risen, and the vision was a little dim.
Chen Yu took Caiyun's hand and asked, "Did you see it, what was it just now?" ”
Caiyun squinted his eyes and spat lightly, "Alien demons." ”
"We'll stay in the village tonight, and I'll see what they want to do."
The two came to the courtyard of the girl's house, and quietly opened the window of the main house, and saw the woman's back under the oil lamp, and her shadow stretched much by the light.
The woman picked the wick, and the burning candlelight jumped with it, and her shadow swayed with a gust of flickering, long and short, and the proportions became disproportionate and exaggerated, like a alien monster pulling and twisting its body.
Caiyun suddenly patted Chen Yu on the shoulder, and Chen Yu turned his head and looked in the direction of her finger.
The dim candlelight and the dark shadows oppose each other, filling the empty space in the room.
Other than that, I didn't see anything out of the ordinary.
Seeing that he still didn't understand, Caiyun pointed to his feet and then to the house.
Chen Yu looked in the direction of her finger again, but still didn't find anything unusual, could it be that Caiyun let herself look at the woman's back again?
He squinted his eyes, and suddenly noticed that on the right side of the woman's abdomen, a small tip of the shoe was exposed.
The glow of the oil lamp on the table obscured a shadow by the woman, outlining the outline of the woman's body on the floor and walls. The tip of the girl's shoe does not cast any shadow, and the position of the woman's shadow on the right abdomen on the wall is a flat and continuous straight line.
There was no shadow of the dead girl, or rather, the light passed straight through her body.
How could this happen, she was obviously an ordinary person, and her mother was holding her, but there was no unusual realization.
Could it be...... The demon in Caiyun's mouth is doing tricks, how does it do it? There was something strange about the oil lamp, or was there something wrong with the girl's body itself.
Suddenly, Chen Yu's heart was shocked, and a huge wave of overturning the river and the sea was set off in his mind. Demonic ...... and the human body that is passed by light, but can be seen and even touched by others...... Isn't this happening to you?
Chen Yu remembered the experience in Caiyun's underground palace, he turned his head to look behind him, Caiyun was close to him, but she was the only one on the ground in the moonlight.
Except for the clouds, everyone else in Jinsha can only see themselves, but they can't touch them, like projections overlapping in parallel worlds.
How similar is the situation of the girl's corpse to herself, is it that she has also ...... He's dead? Or have you become a so-called alien demon?
Caiyun seemed to know the reason, but she kept it secret.
Chen Yu suddenly felt a chill on the back of his neck, and it was still a little itchy, as if someone was blowing hard at him from behind. He grabbed it with his hand and turned around, but there was nothing behind him.
If you walk too much at night, you won't bump into ghosts, and you will be suspicious. Chen Yu laughed at himself in his heart.
I was about to re-check the movement in the house, when I suddenly saw a white-faced figure outside the courtyard wall flashing away, with a hollow bamboo pipe in his mouth, and a wooden arrow with a sharp tip flew from it with a "poof".
"Be careful!"
Chen Yu subconsciously pounced forward, pressing the defenseless Caiyun under him.
Caiyun's eyes widened, and he looked at Chen Yu suspiciously, and suddenly saw a wooden arrow breaking through the air and sinking straight into Chen Yu's shoulder.
If he hadn't pushed himself away just now, the location where he was shot would have been his own throat.
Someone is going to assassinate themselves.
Caiyun reacted quickly, and with a stroke of his fingers, the wooden table in the courtyard flew out in response, blocking his and Chen Yu's bodies.
She touched Chen Yu's wound with trembling hands and asked eagerly, "Are you okay?" How does it feel, is it badly hurt? ”
The moment he was hit by the arrow, Chen Yu's heart couldn't help but tighten, but there was no pain in the injury, and only then did he react, he was just a phantom now, but the benefits were reflected in this situation.
"It's okay! You forget, now I can't touch anything but you, Rhubarb, and the bronze mask, and correspondingly, nothing can hurt me. That arrow ......"
Caiyun shook his head solemnly, looked directly into Chen Yu's eyes, and said solemnly, "No, you are already injured." ”
"What......" Chen Yu was about to retort, when he suddenly saw that the wound on his right shoulder had become much more transparent.
What's going on, is it that the arrow has a special color of dye on it, no, it can't touch its own clothes and skin.
He was about to ask Caiyun if he knew something, when he suddenly felt that his body was a little heavy, his consciousness was slightly dizzy, and the scene in front of him became gray.
This is...... Poisoning.
Caiyun looked intently outside the courtyard and saw that the archer was gone, so he turned around and continued:
"You can't get hurt anymore, your soul has been badly damaged, if ......"
Chen Yu couldn't really hear the latter words, and was about to get closer, but his eyes turned black for a while, and then he fainted.
