Chapter 18: Scrooge

At dusk, a dirt road slopes upward, and the trees on both sides sway in the wind, like ghosts with teeth and claws.

A team made their way on the dirt road, leaving deep ruts that showed the weight of what was on board.

Most of the people accompanying him wore black suits and carried blades, which looked like darts at a glance.

Zhong Yuhai happened to be the head of this dart, walking at the forefront.

After all these years, he still seemed to be steady, and he was valued by his brothers, but before he knew it, he was tired of it.

But he couldn't leave the stall for a while, and looking at the donkey next to him who was buried in pulling the cart, he actually gave birth to the illusion that he was also a donkey.

It is as if there is an invisible whip in life, whipping him and forcing him forward.

Seeing that the sky was getting darker and darker, he couldn't help urging: "Everyone work hard, and you can have a good rest when you get to the town in front." ”

Although numb, he still did not dare to let his guard down.

The sunset has completely submerged into the mountain forest, so the wild trees swaying in the wind around it are even more hideous.

Zhong Yuhai looked in all directions and led the team forward.

As he walked, he suddenly heard someone whispering to him, as if someone was discussing something.

Walking darts is a very hard thing, and the team of dart masters does not exclude people from talking and laughing.

But hearing this voice, Zhong Yuhai couldn't help but feel a strange feeling in his heart, because he couldn't hear what they were talking about, and he always felt a little ill-intentioned.

Yes, with bad intentions.

Thinking of this word, Zhong Yuhai felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, so he turned his head and said, "Stop talking, hurry up!" ”

The team fell silent, and the voice of the sinister was gone.

But it wasn't long before that voice came again.

Zhong Yuhai was upset, turned his head again, and said with a serious expression: "I said quietly, why don't anyone listen?" ”

This time when he went out, because of the lack of manpower, he brought some newcomers, and he couldn't help but think that this newcomer was really not as good as a year, and he didn't even understand some rules.

He was thinking that he had to find an opportunity to train these newcomers well.

Because of his seriousness, this time the team was quieter than before.

But as he walked, the voice of Si Si Suo appeared again.

Zhong Yuhai waved his hand to stop the team, and said with a gloomy face: "Who is talking!" ”

All of a sudden, the team became eerily quiet, except for the howling of the wind.

He vaguely judged that the voice came from the tail of the team, walked over, and ordered: "Yu Biao, count the number of tails!" ”

"Yes."

Darts are usually grouped in groups if there are a large number of people, and the so-called "tails" are the ranks responsible for the post.

His old subordinate Yu Biao quickly counted the number of people in the team, but after counting, he slowed down.

Zhong Yuhai raised his eyebrows and said, "What's wrong?" ”

Yu Biao said with a strange expression: "One more." ”

The most taboo thing about darts is that someone has fallen behind unconsciously, and there are fewer people, which is quite rare to suddenly have one more person, and even faintly scary.

Zhong Yuhai couldn't help but feel a chill on the back of his neck, and ordered: "Burn the lamp!" Count me clearly!"

The dim lamp soon lit up, Yu Biao took the lamp in his hand and counted it again, his face turned pale and said, "Boss, there is one more, there are fourteen." ”

The "tail" is thirteen people, which he set out when he set out.

Zhong Yu took out the saber and said, "Recognize them one by one!" ”

There are newcomers here, some are just familiar, and it's really hard to recognize who is who in this dim environment.

The wild forest beside the road was pitch black, as if there were many malicious eyes hidden.

Yu Biao began to recognize people, and at the same time, Zhong Yuhai found that the voice of Xi Suo Suo appeared again.

His gaze swept fiercely over the men, trying to find the source of the sound.

As he listened, he suddenly realized that the voice was in him...... Side?

Next to him, his subordinate Yu Biao still carried the lamp and let people come forward to recognize it one by one, and did not find anything abnormal.

As a result, at this moment, Zhong Yuhai suddenly trembled.

I saw that under the dim light, Yu Biao's shirt had several cuts at some point.

In those mouths, there are mouths of different sizes.

The mouth of the person.

They are constantly churning softly, making a low sound.

This time, Zhong Yuhai finally heard what they were saying.

"You found it."

A light and fluttering voice floated into Zhong Yuhai's ears, with a heart-deep coolness.

After that, a terrible scream pierced the quiet of the night.

The night is deeper......

......

Three days have finally arrived.

Jing Yue, who seemed to be crawling with a saintess, once again entered the body of the saintess.

After a whirlwind, the eyes came into view of a tattered belly-bellied body and several bloody mouths growing on the chest.

I saw dense flesh buds growing in those mouths, and the next moment, those flesh buds suddenly squirmed.

Jing Yue was startled and stepped back sharply.

I heard a bang, and a woman in black in a strong suit was knocked out and slammed to the ground.

"Can you calm down?" Miss Nightshade's voice sounded coldly.

Jing Yue looked around and made sure that it was the saintess's subordinates who had just been knocked into by him, and couldn't help but use the saintess's mouth to say embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, are you okay?" ”

The woman in black quickly stood up and replied respectfully: "It's all the negligence of the slave maid, and the slave is too close to you, the Holy Maiden." ”

As she spoke, she couldn't help but gently shake her aching shoulders and chest.

The Holy Maiden was so talented that she almost knocked her breasts out.

At this time, Jing Yue once again set his eyes on the strange body, and said in surprise: "What the hell is this?" ”

It's really no wonder that Jing Yue is timid, this person has so many mouths on his body, and his mouth is full of blood-colored flesh buds, which is indeed terrifying and scary.

"Scrooge."

"Rest assured, it's dead." Ye Ning explained.

Jing Yue looked at the bullet holes in the other party's throat and chest, which were obviously poked out of a spear, confirmed this matter, and wondered: "Scrooge? ”

He knew Scrooge, and he knew a few more famous ones, such as Grande and the like, but he never thought that a Scrooge could look like this.

"This is the silver crouciner under the throne of the God of Wealth. Legend has it that the God of Wealth sits on the fortune of the world, but the more wealth is scattered, the less it remains, so he also has to think about how to gather wealth.

Scrooge was born with four eyes and six mouths, and was particularly sensitive to gold and silver treasures, and liked to devour all kinds of treasures. This is just a silver slave, born to feed on silver, it is estimated that he was so hungry that he swallowed nearly 10,000 taels of silver from us, and bit us to death many of us. ”

When he said this, Ye Ning's tone involuntarily revealed a touch of exhaustion.

Jing Yue looked around and saw that it was near a river beach.

The weather was very gloomy, and in addition to the one who had just been injured by him, Ye Ning's subordinates were injured and wrapped their wounds with white cloths, which showed that Ye Ning had also paid some price for chasing this silver rich slave.

However, Jing Yue was still immersed in this novelty.

He knew that there were demons and evil in this world, and when he was in Huangliu Town, he had witnessed a strange thing with his own eyes.

A neighbor came back from out of town at that time, and the originally kind person suddenly became irritable and beat his wife and daughter in public, and they persuaded him and didn't pay much attention to it.

As a result, that night, he heard the screams and hurriedly took someone to check the situation.

When he was about to bang on the door, he saw an evil creature with a high spine bulging out of the wall, holding a human head in its mouth.

The human head belonged to the neighbor's wife, and the evil creature, though vaguely recognizable, was the neighbor who had returned from the day.

Later, I heard from people in the same town that the neighbor had stumbled upon a grave cave while collecting medicine in the mountains, and wanted to go in and see if he could touch something.

The companion was timid and did not dare to go in, while he himself went in.

Presumably, it was contaminated with evil after entering the cave that he became like that.

After that, Jing Yue never saw the neighbor again.

Although he had witnessed this strange thing with his own eyes, it was only a glimpse after all, and he had no chance to observe it up close, so at this moment, he couldn't help but use the earthly maple musket to pull away the hair of the corpse of the silver crooge, and found that there was indeed an extra pair of eyes on the top of his head.

Those eyes were yellow, as if a touch of brown sugar had been dotted in the pupils, which looked quite weird.

"Under the seat of the God of Wealth, how can the things under the seat of the God of Wealth be so evil."

In his concept, the God of Wealth is a god, and his subordinates are naturally gods.

But the appearance and behavior of this miser in front of him are no different from the evil that harms people.

"There are not many people in this world who have seen the true body of the God of Wealth, no one can say whether he is evil or not, I don't like him anyway."

When she said this, Ye Ning couldn't help but show a strong disgust in her tone.

Jing Yue looked at the bulging belly of the silver rich slave and wondered: "Then the silver it swallowed, is it all in it?" ”

"You just have to look at it. It's been too long, and there should be no drama. Nightgaze said.

At this time, Jing Yue suddenly found that the black-clothed subordinates were looking at him with nervous expressions.

One of his subordinates even kept gesturing to another companion behind his back, and the meaning was obviousβ€”"Holy Maiden, this is a hysteria, right?" ”。

Jing Yue reacted suddenly, knowing that it was his communication with the saintess herself that scared them, and couldn't help but explain: "Don't worry, I'm fine, it's just that it's easy to take on the role when checking things." ”

After hearing this explanation, several of his subordinates breathed a sigh of relief, but their hearts soon hung again.

Everyone knows that the favorite thing a madman can say is, "I'm not crazy." ”。

I'm not crazy!

Jing Yue ignored them anymore, and thrust his spear into his navel, which immediately broke the belly of the rich slave.

Immediately after, the silver liquid slid to the ground, as if the silver water was mixed with fish scales, refracting a slightly dazzling light.

"Scrooge feeds on gold and silver treasures, and when the treasures are in their stomachs, they turn into water, and it is difficult to return to their original appearance." Ye Ning explained.

"Can this silver be recast into silver?"

"No, the silver water is poisonous, and it is useless anymore. Legend has it that only when he saw the god of wealth himself, the silver slave would recondense the silver water into silver taels and spit it out. ”

At this moment, Jing Yue suddenly saw a silhouette in the silver water in his abdomen, and wondered, "What is this?" ”

The next moment, Ye Ning's voice suddenly sounded - "Disperse!" ”。

With a bang, the silver water exploded, and the four eyes of the silver crooge, which had lost focus, suddenly turned, and the whole "person" also turned over!

In the dim light of the sky, its mouth was open like an evil demon.
