Chapter Fifty-Eight: Evil Spirit
Under the heavy pressure of the evil net, Xue Ji's originally beautiful and delicate cheeks began to become hideous, and a teardrop the size of a bean slipped down her forehead, and the whole person seemed to be fished out of the water.
The face that was originally white and red also became pale, and the lips became even more bruised.
She was in a hurry in her heart, no longer hiding it, her hands turned blue and black, like gold and stone, and her ten nails also became sharp claws glowing with cold light, her body was ethereal, attacking the red net on her head again and again, and the claws were in the forest, but they seemed to be mixed into the sea, and she couldn't set off any waves.
As the soldiers approached, the large scarlet net gradually shrank, binding Yukihime firmly to the ground.
Seeing that there was no chance to escape, she struggled and half-knelt on the ground, pleading in her mouth: "Immortal Master, I was wrong! I won't dare to hurt anyone again! I beg the immortal master to spare my life for the sake of my difficult cultivation! ”
Her figure was constantly shaking, and although she was still struggling, it was only a matter of time before she was defeated.
At this time, she no longer has the relaxed expression she had before, and her identity has changed from a hunter to a prey, like a fish out of the water to be slaughtered, and all the struggles are in vain.
Zhou Xingyu and Wang Ye also saw the evil aura on the army for the first time, and their faces couldn't help but be a little solemn.
This evil spirit is so powerful, and it doesn't mean that they can't get much benefit when they run into the army.
Jiazi obviously saw the thoughts of the two, and he said: "Brother Wang, Brother Zhou, as the so-called one thing descends one thing, this evil qi is really powerful for strange things, but it can't be used against the Master. Don't worry too much. The people in the rivers and lakes are against the army, as long as they don't hold it up, it's still easy to run, as if this can limit the ability of strange things, and it doesn't exist for the people in the rivers and lakes. ”
General Lin on the side heard Jiazi's words, and also nodded and said: "Yes, what Jiaxian Master said is very correct, although the army's evil spirit is powerful, but in the final analysis, it is against these strange things that are unsightly. ”
The two of them just thought for a moment, and then they came back to their senses, indeed, if the imperial army was really so powerful, where could they still allow these Jianghu sects to be powerful in the states, I am afraid that a large army would have been sent to wipe them out.
After figuring it out, the two couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
In the field, as the soldiers approached, the evil qi became more and more vigorous, and the evil qi invaded, and bursts of white smoke came out of Xue Ji's body, and Xue Ji only felt that she was in a huge furnace, and the evil qi continued to burn her body like a raging fire. At last, she could no longer bear the tremendous pressure, and cracks appeared in her smooth skin, and soon revealed her true face, an ugly monster that looked like a withered old woman, with a huge forehead and hair like withered grass.
Compared with the previous stunning beauty, it is like two people. The former is like a beautiful rose, and the latter is as disgusting as dog shit on the ground.
Seeing that the monster showed its true face, General Lin shouted, "The sword and shield are ahead!" Spear stabbing! Kill! ”
Suddenly, a group of pikemen stabbed their spears out fiercely.
The spear, which seemed to have little attack power in Zhou Xingyu and the others, was pierced on this strange thing like a divine weapon, easily piercing the opponent's defense, leaving holes in the opponent's terrible roar.
However, the other party is also strong in vitality, and he has survived several rounds of attacks, but unfortunately it is only a grasshopper after the autumn, and as time goes by, the injury becomes more and more serious, and there is gradually no breath of life.
After the other party fell to the ground, a puff of smoke rose, and after the smoke dissipated, a thin human skin was left on the ground, and a beautiful woman with picturesque eyebrows and eyes was drawn on the human skin, which was the previous Xue Ji.
Jiazi stepped forward and took the human skin in his hand, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief, he said: "Everyone, this monster is dead, and there will be no more heart-splitting things in Jinyang City in the future." ”
Zhou Xingyu and Wang Ye walked away with a curious expression, looked at the human skin in Jiazi's hand and wanted to see something, but in the end they didn't find anything.
Wang Ye asked curiously, "Brother Wang, what kind of ghost is this?" After death, only a piece of human skin was left! ”
After the zombie incident, Wang Ye and Zhou Xingyu were quite interested in these gods and ghosts.
Seeing a living creature turn into a human skin in front of him, his curiosity grew even more.
Although Zhou Xingyu didn't speak, a pair of eyes also looked at Jiazi, obviously he also wanted to know what this thing was.
Hearing the questioning of the two, Jiazi shook his head and said, "It's the first time I've encountered this kind of ghost, and if I want to know the result, I can only go back and ask the master." ”
Although he had been dealing with these strange things, he was not very old after all, and although he had some experience, he was not high, and he was naturally far inferior to Venerable Tianxuan.
"I can't imagine that even Brother A doesn't know."
Hearing Jiazi say that he didn't know, Wang Ye's face couldn't help but show a look of disappointment.
Looking at the human skin in Jiazi's hand and the lifelike portraits on it, Zhou Xingyu's heart moved, and he couldn't help but say: "Otherwise, it's called painted skin." ”
As soon as he spoke, he felt a little remorse in his heart, regretting that he was a little anxious, this kind of showy thing really didn't match his style.
Thinking of this, he hurriedly remedied: "Forget it, just when I didn't say it." ”
However, after hearing Zhou Xingyu's words, after everyone present looked at each other, they all showed their eyes of approval.
Jiazi opened his mouth and said, "Yes, paint the skin." It's obviously a ghost, but it's dressed in human skin, and it's a beautiful fisherman who asks for people's lives! Ordinary people don't know that the other party is a ghost, greedy for beauty, and finally dies at his hands. Brother Zhou's name is good. ”
Jiazi praised for a long time, and Zhou Xingyu's face was red, and then he said: "I don't think it's as good as this, I went back this time and asked the master, if this kind of ghost thing doesn't have a name, it's better to name it after the painted skin." ”
The others also nodded again and again, obviously very satisfied with the name given by Zhou Xingyu.
Zhou Xingyu originally wanted to say that he was just talking nonsense, but now it seems that even if he said it, everyone present would not believe it.
Wang Ye pulled Zhou Xingyu's shoulder and said, "Ah Xing, I have always thought that even if you don't practice martial arts, you must have a good future when you go to study, the nickname you gave me last time was good, and this time this is even more appropriate." ”
Hearing Wang Ye's words, Zhou Xingyu's face couldn't help but darken.
Last time Wang Ye asked him to help think of a nickname, he said one casually, and then he regretted it, whenever he heard others call Wang Ye's nickname, he felt a sense of shame.
I didn't expect him to mention it now.
Ignoring Wang Ye, who was gagging, Zhou Xingyu hugged his fists at Jiazi and said, "Brother Jia, there is a reluctant invitation below." If you go back this time, you have to report your name, and I hope that Brother A will just say that he thought of it. ”
Although I didn't understand why Zhou Xingyu was so secretive, but after just being stunned, Jiazi agreed.
"Good! Since Brother Zhou said so, I won't mention today's matter at that time. ”
Seeing that Jiazi agreed, Zhou Xingyu breathed a sigh of relief.
He didn't want his name to be the first thing that would come to mind when someone came across Painted Skin.
Just then, a voice was heard in the distance.
"His! Where are you? What about people? Why is there no one in the other hospital? Steward Chen! Miss Yukihime! Where are you? ”
Everyone looked up, only to see Wang Wen with a pale face, a thin face, wearing a fox fur, standing under the lantern in the courtyard, holding a bamboo pole in his hand, shouting loudly, his expression was full of fear.
For Wang Wen, everyone else is easy to say, Xue Ji is his nobleman, whether he can win the lift this time still depends on her, if she is gone, what will he do with this township test?
Zhou Xingyu and the others glanced at each other, and then walked towards the courtyard.
Looking at Wang Ye, Zhou Xingyu and the others who came from not far away, Wang Wen's face suddenly showed joy, and he asked, "Brother Wang, Brother Zhou, Brother A, why are you here?" By the way, this one? ”
His eyes looked at General Lin, who was wearing armor on the side, because it was full body armor, so Wang Wen didn't recognize the other party.
General Lin took the helmet off his head and said, "Prince Wang, long time no see." ”
Looking at the person in front of him, Wang Wen's eyes widened, and he asked, "General Lin, why are you with Brother Wang?" ”
In his impression, General Lin almost never went out of the garrison camp, but today he actually went out, and he was with Wang Ye and them, which made him have to be curious.
Just before Zhou Xingyu and the others could answer, Wang Wen asked eagerly: "By the way, Brother Wang, have you seen a woman in white?" ”
Hearing Wang Wen's words, Jiazi was stunned for a moment, then unfolded the human skin in his hand in front of Wang Wen, and said, "What did Wang Gongzi say?" ”
Wang Wen: "......"
The real culprit has been ambushed, and under the arrangement of Ah Xi and the housekeeper, those servants of the Wang family began to return to the other courtyard, and soon under Wang Wen's arrangement, a table of rich wine and food was arranged in the hall.
Wang Ye, Zhou Xingyu, Jiazi and others took their seats one after another, and General Lin left early after saying goodbye to everyone because he wanted to bring the soldiers of the garrison back to the school ground.
After hearing what a few people said, Wang Wencai showed a sudden expression, he beckoned to Ah Xi who was waiting on the side, his eyes were full of gratitude, and said, "Ah Xi, you also come and sit down with us." ”
Hearing Wang Wen's words, Ah Xi was stunned for a moment, and then said with a frightened face: "Childe, the villain is just a servant in the family, which is not in line with the rules of the house. ”
Seeing that Ah Xi refused to sit down, Wang Wen pulled him to the table with his own hands and pressed him on the chair.
Wang Wen said sincerely: "Today, you save my life, don't say anything like servant in the future, if you want, today under the witness of Brother Wang, Brother Zhou and Brother A, you and I will become brothers of the opposite sex, and we will be rich and noble together in the future." ”
If it weren't for Ah Xi risking death to save him this time, even if Wang Ye and the others surrendered to the real murderer, he would have ended up like those people in the city before.
This kindness is not small.
Although he has many shortcomings, he still knows it.
Hearing Wang Wen's words, Ah Xi's eyes couldn't help but shed tears, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
Wang Wen comforted him on the side.
Zhou Xingyu and the others saw everything in their eyes, although they didn't say much, but they all showed a relieved expression.
After dealing with Ah Xi's matter, Wang Wen suddenly showed a look of shame.
"I was confused by the demon road before, and I actually had a thought that I shouldn't have, and I went astray, which led to the ghost thing being introduced into the backyard without knowing it, and then I coveted its beauty and family background, and did a lot of ridiculous things.
Hearing Wang Wen's words, whether it was Jiazi, Wang Ye or Ah Xi, they all comforted.
After all, in the mirror country, there are many men who have three wives and four concubines, and they linger in the flower house and wine shop, which is nothing in their eyes.
Although Zhou Xingyu felt that Wang Wen was indeed wrong, after all, this was someone else's family matter, and he didn't have much to say, just drinking silently alone.
