Volume 1 The Fox Demon Crying Grave Chapter 9: The Puppet

"You seem to have a little truth in saying that." After Wang Xiaoou nodded ignorantly, his eyes glanced at the old pipe on the earthen kang in the house and said, "Then do we still believe him." ”

"For now, we can only believe it first, after all, we have no second way to choose." Xu Ye was a little tired from squatting, so he simply sat on the ground.

The night grew thicker as time passed.

After all, the old pipe was a little old, and after a while, he fell directly to sleep on the earthen kang, and Xiao Wan also dragged her cheeks on the threshold and became sleepy.

Xu Ye was extremely energetic and did not feel the slightest sleepiness, waving his hand to drive away mosquitoes for Wang Xiaoou, who was already asleep, while smoking a cigarette and staring at Xiaowan's movements.

I don't know how long it took, but after a dog barked, Xu Ye clearly saw that in the darkness of the three-story small building opposite the old pipe's house, there was a stiff figure standing in it, quietly looking at Xiao Wan sitting on the threshold.

Seeing this, Xu Ye immediately woke up Wang Xiaoou in his arms, and signaled to her with his eyes the direction where the strange black shadow was.

After seeing the figure in the dark, Wang Xiaoou immediately covered his mouth with his hands and whispered in a panic: "Is it the paper man?" It's really coming. ”

"I'm afraid it won't come."

After Xu Ye's words fell, the figure that had been hidden in the darkness began to move slowly, and his stiff body slowly walked towards Xiao Wan, who was sitting on the threshold.

As the figure in the darkness got closer and closer, Xiao Wan, who was still a little sleepy, suddenly came to her senses.

His eyes looked at the figure that was slowly approaching him with fear, his hands helplessly wrapped around his thin body, and his weak body began to tremble under the approach of the black shadow step by step.

But to Xu Ye's surprise, when the black figure approached less than half a meter away from the small bowl, it suddenly stopped without warning, and its figure was obviously a little flustered, as if it was afraid of something.

At the same time, the little girl's fear was at its peak, and she didn't care that Xu Ye had told her to sit obediently and not move.

Directly cried out in his throat, turned around and ran into the house to find his father.

Seeing this situation, Xu Ye knew that he had already startled the snake, and it was impossible to catch the turtle in the urn, so he didn't continue to wait, took out a pig-killing knife he carried with him, and rushed directly towards the figure that was still hidden in the darkness without saying a word.

The pig-killing knife is stained with blood all the year round, and it carries a very strong evil spirit, although it is also yin, but it is a weapon to ward off evil spirits.

And this is also the only magic weapon that Xu Shunqing's unreliable master gave to Xu Ye, a cheap apprentice.

Xu Ye rushed forward quickly with the pig-killing knife, and the figure that had been hidden in the darkness also reacted at the same time, and with a twist of his body, he jumped directly towards Xu Ye.

Xu Ye didn't dodge, and directly tensed the muscles of his whole body and collided with the black shadow.

With a 'bang', Xu Ye's chest collided directly with the chest of the black figure.

In an instant, Xu Ye directly felt that his chest seemed to hit a steel plate, and the severe pain almost made him faint on the spot.

"Damn, is this guy an iron man or a paper man." Xu Ye gasped, covered his aching chest, and bowed his head to curse.

The reason why Xu Ye chose to collide violently with the black shadow was not because he was confident in his physical fitness, but because he wanted to fight quickly.

Because he knew that once he fought head-on, he would not be able to match the black shadow in front of him with his three-legged cat skills.

So he could only choose to take a risk, and at the moment of colliding with the black shadow, he took the opportunity to stab the pig-killing knife in his hand directly into the abdomen of the black shadow, the pig-killing knife was already extremely sharp, coupled with the incomparably decisive impact of the black shadow, the pig-killing knife directly and instantly pierced its body.

With a 'poof' sound.

A viscous green liquid slowly flowed out along the pig-killing knife, Xu Ye subconsciously retreated, and the pig-killing knife didn't have time to pull it out, and directly kicked the black shadow to the ground.

The black shadow seemed to be much more fragile than expected, and after being stabbed through the body by the pig-killing knife, it directly lost the ability to resist, and curled up on the ground and whimpered in extreme pain.

"What's up, you're not hurt." After Wang Xiaoou saw the black shadow fall to the ground, he immediately hurriedly ran over.

"It's okay, this guy doesn't seem to be too difficult to deal with."

Xu Ye said and took a deep breath, and after barely suppressing the pain in his chest, he lowered his head and looked carefully at the black shadow curled up on the ground.

At this moment, the black shadow had stopped wailing, and curled up motionless on the ground, and black mist continued to rise around him.

"It seems that it should have been completely solved, the old pipe is right, this paper figure is indeed made of evil qi condensed, and the knife I just now should have happened to stab its life, piercing the foundation of the evil qi in its body." Xu Ye looked at the black shadow carefully and said.

But at this moment, Wang Xiaoou realized that something was wrong.

As the black mist around the black shadow dissipated, what was exposed was not a paper man, but a living person, and this person Wang Xiaoou still knew.

"Second Brother Niu, how could it be him." Wang Xiaoou exclaimed.

"What's wrong?" Xu Ye looked at Wang Xiaoou with a surprised face.

"He is Niu Er, the youngest son of the second aunt of the king in the west of the village, a very loyal person, and he is a well-known honest man in the village, how can it be him." Wang Xiaoou looked at Niu Er, whose face was pale and his lips were purple at that moment, and said unacceptably.

After hearing Wang Xiaoou's words, Xu Ye looked down again at Niu Er, who was directly stabbed through the abdomen by himself on the ground, and began to feel that something was indeed wrong.

But what was not quite right, he couldn't figure it out for a while.

It wasn't until a cold wind suddenly blew from behind and blew up a black cloak on Niu Er's body that Xu Ye suddenly figured out what was wrong.

Just at Niu Er's neck, there was a pair of dark blue blood holes, and the blood holes were already purple at this moment, obviously poisoned.

"He, what's on his neck?" Wang Xiaoou also saw the bloody hole in Niu Er's neck, and looked at Xu Ye inexplicably.

"It's corpse poison, that wound was obviously bitten by a zombie, and it became a puppet of that zombie after being poisoned by corpse." Xu Ye's face began to be gloomy, and he muttered: "It seems that it is not just a paper man, there are really zombies." ”
