73. River Styx
This young man is Yin Xiaosheng.
And what Yin Xiaosheng used was not an ordinary flute, but a sound fire flute, which was strengthened by the ghost characteristics (ghost sound fire), so the sound blade used would naturally have a dark blue ghost fire attached to it.
The five fireball-shaped sound blades rushed towards the gangsters, but instead of the blazing heat of the usual flames, they felt a slight eerie chill, which made people's cold hairs stand upside down.
[Am I reading that right?] , there was a ghost fire in the middle of the day! It's haunted, right? The thought flashed through the thugs' minds, but before they could call it out, they were hit by the sound blade.
When these sonic blades hit them, the ghostly fire on them exploded like real fireballs, dealing an area of effect explosion damage. So even though their number is about three times that of the sound blade, they directly include everyone.
Although the power of the sound blade is small, it is not small for ordinary people compared to monks. The blow alone cut through the blade and killed at least five people instantly, while others were injured to varying degrees.
But that's not all!
The ghost fires attached to it exploded and scattered in all directions, and many of them flew to the bodies of other people, immediately spreading all over their bodies at an extremely fast speed.
The ghost fire burned on the body, but it didn't feel the heat that it should have, but it eroded the skin with an extremely painful feeling, like countless small insects were biting, and it was like ice cubes clinging to it.
If the ghost fire wants to burn, it naturally needs to have yin energy. Therefore, the burning of the ghost fire is not only the erosion of the flames, but also the invasion of the yin qi. Wherever the ghost fire touches, in addition to the rotten skin, there are also corpse spots!
Compared with normal fire, the power of ghost fire is not as good as it, but it is better than adhesion, so it is naturally not so easy to extinguish, even if it is not dealt with in time, it will cause irreversible damage.
Including those who had been cut off by the waist and died, all the thugs were stained with ghost fire. At first, they kept slapping the places that were stained with the ghost fire, but soon realized that something was wrong—the ghost fire was not only not extinguished, but intensified, and soon spread throughout the body.
Their expressions were terrified, and their screams were terrible, and they kept rolling on the ground, hoping to get rid of the flames. These people were about to die, but Yin Xiaosheng didn't have the slightest intention of letting them go. He watched coldly as they struggled on the ground, unmoved.
The Scar Man is not a monk and can't save them. And they themselves are not martial artists, and in the face of the attack of the Qi and Blood Realm, there is only one way to die.
But no matter how loud and heart-rending the screams they let out, no one nearby heard them except for the remaining three people on the field. This is because the place they chose is so remote that only people from the old alleys will pass through it when they go to the market, and there is naturally no one nearby.
This is self-inflicted.
When the last scream was gone, only a dozen charred corpses were left on the ground, cold and completely devoid of the temperature that had just been burned by fire. Specks of corpses can be seen everywhere on these corpses, as if they are ancient corpses that have been buried for many years.
Yin Xiaosheng then turned his head and looked at the scar man with a cold gaze.
As soon as he reached the bridge, he saw his mother surrounded by these thugs, and when he heard that the scar man was going to beat her, he was so angry that he forgot everything and thought only of killing them all.
So even if this is the first time he kills someone, he will never have the slightest softness, let alone a little burden in his heart. Because they all deserve to die in his opinion!
And when Scar Man rushed over, he first cautiously used a sonic boom to test it. I don't know if I don't try, but I'm shocked when I try it. Before fighting these thugs, he was already determined to get justice for the people in this alley if he didn't succeed. But after a temptation, I found that the scar man was only in the forging realm, and he was vulnerable in front of him.
In fact, Yin Xiaosheng's thinking has always fallen into a misunderstanding, that is, he has always thought that the people in an alley who dare not speak out dare to be angry must at least have to be in the realm of qi and blood. And in fact, if a person has the cultivation of the Qi and Blood Realm, he will not be a gangster anyway, and this kind of cultivation can do anything much faster and make money than being a gangster, and it is also easy.
So generally speaking, the highest cultivation of gangsters is the forging realm.
The scar man and Yin Xiaosheng's eyes met, and they couldn't help but shudder, and their legs trembled a little. Although he often does evil, he has never killed anyone, right? Just now he saw his subordinates being tortured to death in Yin Xiaosheng's hands without any scruples, and he can't forget the screams before he died.
Originally, I thought it would be a peeling skin at most, but now it seems that his life is very likely to be lost here.
"You...... Don't come here! Scar's voice trembled a little, obviously he was also afraid, "No, or I'll kill, kill her!" ”
He said so, but he wouldn't really kill the hostages in his hands, this was his last guarantee! And Yin Xiaosheng also knows this, but he also understands the truth that dogs will jump over the wall when they are in a hurry, if they force the other party, they may really kill the hostages.
But no matter what Scar Man and Yin Xiaosheng thought, the one with the biggest psychological fluctuations at this time was the middle-aged woman who was a hostage.
Her name is Xu Shuxia, and she is Yin Xiaosheng's mother. She thought she knew her son well, but after nearly a year of separation, she found that she couldn't see through her son anymore.
Let's not talk about killing, just saying that the current strength is very different from what she knows, so strong that she can't believe it.
Now the two of them are strong and weak, even she can see it at a glance. The reversal of the situation gave her hope and the hope of getting rid of these hateful bastards completely.
"Xiaosheng, this kind of wicked person shouldn't stay in the world, just kill him, don't worry about me, I'll be fine." Xu Shuxia struggled and shouted.
"Shut up, you stupid woman!" Scar Man scolded viciously, and the knife in his hand stabbed her neck a little more, and a small stream of blood flowed down from the tip of the knife.
Seeing the blood, Yin Xiaosheng's eyes were a little colder, and he did not hesitate to blow the sound fire horn again.
This time, instead of using a sonic boom or a sonic blade, he played a piece of music - "Water He Tuan". This repertoire is related to water as you hear the name, and it is obviously a repertoire that is very suitable for people who practice water attribute exercises.
Normally, whether the effect of a song can be maximized depends on whether the time and place are favorable.
There are some very special pieces that need to be played at a specific time and in the weather, and this requires the time of day.
And most of the repertoire itself has the attributes of possession, if the attributes of the exercises practiced by the performer are consistent with the attributes of the repertoire, it can fit the performer to the greatest extent, this is the people.
For some repertoire, in addition to the performers themselves, they also need to have a geographical advantage, that is, a combination of geographical locations, borrowing natural conditions from the environment, such as rivers.
And what "Water He Tuan" needs is a lot of water, and now they are on a bridge, and if there is a bridge, there will naturally be water and a river, which just meets all the conditions needed. So when Yin Xiaosheng's flute sounded, the gurgling water under the bridge began to look strange, or there was a riot.
When the scar man saw him playing again, he was a little nervous, and his hand holding the knife was sweating a lot, so he immediately held on to his mind and went all out. But after discovering that the track was not directly aimed at him, he immediately looked around vigilantly, paying attention to anything unusual to judge the effect of the track.
Surrounded by the sound of flutes, the river gradually changed from calm to undulating, and finally the waves were turbulent, all in a dozen breaths.
After everything was ready, Yin Xiaosheng's flute suddenly reached a climax, and the surging water of this section of the river suddenly rose into the air with the sound of the flute, which actually broke the flow of the river for a while.
The river grew higher and higher, and soon it reached a height of five meters, blocking out all the sunlight from the rear.
Immediately, Scar Man noticed the change in the sound of the river, and the originally regular and crisp water flow began to become chaotic at some point. Then he suddenly felt the dimming of the light, and when he looked back, his face turned pale.
Under the water of this five-meter-high river, he seemed so insignificant, so powerless.
What's more, the sound fire flute is not vegetarian, there are ghost fires floating everywhere on this river, and the dark blue flames are continuous, covering the entire river, looking like the legendary river Styx in the underworld! It seems to devour people's souls, and people can't help but be daunted. The scar man also subconsciously took two steps back, his legs trembling incessantly, but he always held on tightly to Xu Shuxia.
"Boom."
Five meters tall is already Yin Xiaosheng's limit, and it can't be more. He maneuvered the River Styx towards the two men on the bridge, as if it was about to break the bridge.
Seeing the "River Styx" roaring and rushing over, the scar man froze in place. When he was about to be swallowed up by the "River Styx", he suddenly reacted, immediately blocked Xu Shuxia in front of him, locked her tightly and shouted: "If you don't want her to die with me, stop quickly!" ”
"Boom."
As soon as Scar Man's voice fell, he was completely submerged by the River Styx. It wasn't just him who was submerged, but the entire bridge.
Yin Xiaosheng's face was pale, this time it could consume a lot of his spiritual energy, but he still insisted on getting rid of the ghost fire on these rivers and slowly leading it downstream, otherwise if it was allowed to rush downstream, the embankment would definitely burst.
The river on the bridge gradually receded, and the figure on the bridge also appeared. Scar Man and Xu Shuxia stood motionless, not even changing their posture at all, obviously not having recovered from the eerie "River Styx" just now.
It's just that they are unscathed, not even a little water, and if it weren't for the slowly receding river, it really seems as if nothing had happened.
