Chapter 116: Shi Bogong
Daytime.
Minyue County, among the county seats.
Thousands of people gathered on both sides of the street, cheering endlessly, and the popularity formed a wave, surging.
Yi Bai and the gray squirrel are demons with good skills and are not afraid of popularity.
A moat and a rat squeezed into the crowd, piercing east and west, and finally squeezed to the front.
Immediately in front of him, dozens of people with hideous and vicious faces painted on their faces, holding gongs, drums and steel forks, like the protector of the Dharma, stepping on Yu steps, dancing their bodies, divided into two rows, and walking through the street.
"Longjun, this place is lively, I'm afraid the cost is not small, the villagers here are poor, I never thought that such a grand tour would be held!"
Squirrel leaned over to Yi Bai and spoke.
"It is normal for sacrifices to prevail here, and it is also beneficial to the county town to hold this tour, such a huge surge of popularity, ordinary ghosts, all to retreat."
Yi Bai said.
He didn't see the ability to drive away evil spirits in those dozens of people, but he saw the surging popularity, so that the ghosts and spirits did not dare to approach.
"What Long Jun said is...... Wait, Longjun, look, how does that look like you? ”
Squirrel exclaimed, pointing in one direction.
Eber did what he was counting on.
Dozens of people with hideous and vicious faces walked by, and behind them, a team of people on stilts and dressed in various colors walked by.
But the squirrel doesn't mean this team.
The squirrel was pointing behind the team.
In the back, twelve people came to dance the dragon......
Wrong.
Yi Bai took a closer look.
The dancer was a dragon, but a dragon, which looked similar to his own appearance, with a tiger head without horns, two legs, and a tail like a snake, and its color was similar to him, mainly cyan.
Is he really dancing?
Yi Bai was stunned.
Before he could come back to his senses, he saw the dancing Jiao passing, and four people strode out carrying a sedan chair, on which sat a clay statue.
What does the clay statue look like......
Much like Yibai, and blindfolded with strips of cloth.
The clay statue was lifted by the four people, as if it was patrolling the four directions, and the surrounding villagers saw the clay statue and cheered, and many people were interested in it, jumped forward, and supported the clay statue together.
"Shejun, what's going on?"
Yi Bai was stunned.
"Dragon Monarch, are you manifesting here?"
Squirrel snickered and asked.
"I chased the lama that day, and I showed up to chase him, but I don't know if it was because of this."
Yi Bai really never thought that it was him who was wandering.
"That's not exactly, the dragon monarch manifests, sacrifices are prevalent here, by mistake, this county worships the dragon monarch, hoping to get the protection of the dragon monarch, which is not very normal."
Squirrel replied with a smile.
"That's it."
Yi Bai shook his head, not knowing what to do.
He always had a feeling that the time was still shallow, but fortunately, it would be a long time in the future, and whether there would be any strange legends and stories for him.
Yi Bai turned away, not looking again.
The gray squirrel saw Yi Bai leaving, and left with him.
A moat shuttled through the crowd, leaving the lively neighborhood, and after making tea, they walked through the crowd and walked to the deserted area.
"Longjun, why don't you take a look at it anymore? The clay statue still has the three-point style of the dragon king. ”
Squirrel quipped.
"It's strange how you look at it, don't look at it."
Yi Bai strode away.
"Longjun, wait for me!"
Squirrel said in a loud voice.
……
A moat and a rat walked on the county road, chatting all the way, but it was also appropriate.
Soon, Yi Bai took the gray squirrel through the streets and alleys and walked to the door of Ah Nian's house.
A faint whimper came from the mud room.
Yi Bai stood still, he thought that Ah Nian's family should be unmanned, and today's county town is very lively, and most people go to participate.
It's impossible for Ah Nian's family not to go.
Yi Bai wanted to wait for his return at his house, explain the matter of the human skin drum with him, and then leave.
Now, it seems, don't you have to wait?
Knock knock.
Yibo knocked lightly on the door.
The gray squirrel stood beside him, staring at the incense burner of the door god with his eyes like a torch, as if he was worried that this little imp of the door god would be unfavorable to Yi Bai.
This move frightened the little ghost of the door god trembling, for fear that the two big demons would eat it.
"Who?"
A soft cry rang out from the mud room.
"It's me."
Yi Bai could hear that the voice was Ah Nian's.
With a creak, the wooden door of the mud room was pushed open from the inside out.
Ah Nian walked out with tears on his face.
"Brother God! Save my grandma!! ”
Ah Nian puffed and knelt on the ground.
"What's wrong?"
Yi Bai was puzzled.
"My grandma, she went, and I don't know where she went, she didn't come back for a day, I can't call anyone to find grandma, grandma......"
Ah Nian is incoherent and gibberish.
Yi Bai didn't understand what it meant.
He listened to it for a long time, and probably knew that Grandma had an accident and was gone.
Yi Bai patted Ah Nian lightly to calm him down.
Ah Nian was obviously emotional and kept talking incoherently.
"Longjun, let me come."
The gray squirrel stepped forward and waved his palm in front of Ah Nian.
Ah Nian suddenly closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
"Long Jun, ask this woman, I'm afraid we won't be able to ask anything, we have to think of another way to know what happened first."
Squirrel spoke.
Yi Bai nodded, hugged Ah Nian, and put him on the wooden chair.
He walked out of the mud house and into the deserted street.
"Longjun, what can I do?"
Squirrel followed and asked.
"What's so difficult about this, wait for me to ask, the land and mountain god, come and see me quickly!"
Yi Bai let out a low sigh, and the aperture in his hand hit the ground.
Whoa......
The wind was gusting, cold and biting, and if anyone stood here, they would feel creepy.
In the eyes of Yi Bai and the gray squirrel, thousands of imps gathered and crowded the doorway in front of the alley, which was terrifying.
Thousands of imps were shocked when they saw Yi Bai and the gray squirrel, and they didn't know where they were, and they were deceived by the monster.
"Shejun, I'm tired of blocking the alley, don't let the little ghost go."
Yibo pleaded.
"That's right."
The gray squirrel was dumbfounded by Yi Bai's methods, listening to the command, he did not refuse, and in a leap, he fell to the entrance of the alley, and he was so angry that he had to enter and exit.
"I invite you to come, I don't mean to do harm, I just want to ask you something, there is an old man in this house behind me, can you know where he is?"
Yi Bai bowed his hand and asked politely.
Most of the land in this county is gathered here, and if something happens to Grandma, these lands will know their whereabouts.
The little ghosts listened to what Yi Bai said, and saw Yi Bai give up, and finally believed that he had no intention of harming, and whispered in groups.
After a while, a little ghost stood up and said tremblingly: "Long Jun, there is a land to see, this patriarch left the county yesterday and went to the mountains, as if he was going to pick yams, and he has not come back, it has been a day and three hours. ”
Yi Bai frowned, how could Grandma live in the mountains for a long time when she was old, and he asked, "Do you know where it is?" ”
The little ghost shook his head.
Yi Bai was instantly helpless.
There are so many mountains outside the county, he just wants to find it, so he doesn't know where to look for it.
"Long Jun, maybe it's Shi Bogong who is doing it!"
A little imp cautiously stepped forward and spoke.
"Shi Bogong? Why? ”
Yi Bai looked at the little ghost, bowed his hand, and asked.
"Longjun's great gift, I don't dare to accept it, Longjun, the so-called Shi Bogong, is some wild monsters in the mountains, these Shi Bogong, often like to be strange, calling people's names in the mountains, capturing people's souls, or Tibetans do not return their treasures, making people anxious, and even worse, they have a bad temperament and feed on the essence of people's souls."
The little ghost returned the favor and told Yi Bai everything about it.
When Yi Bai heard this, he immediately understood.
He had never heard of the name of Shi Bogong, but when he was a child, he went up the mountain to worship his ancestors, and often heard people say that if he walked alone on the mountain, he met a living person calling his name, and he must not answer, so most of the people on the mountain were called 'hey'.
Come to think of it, it is also related to Shi Bogong.
"If Uncle Shi is doing it, what should I do?"
Yibo asked patiently.
"Long Jun, I heard before my death that if you encounter Shi Bogong as a Tibetan, you can send someone up the mountain to beat gongs and drums and shout his name, so as to scare away the idle Shi Bogong."
The imp replied.
Yi Bai frowned, where would he go to transfer people up the mountain to beat gongs and drums for a while and a half, people have been missing for more than a day, and it may be difficult.
"Well, you all go."
Yibai waved his hand.
Squirrel gave way.
Suddenly, the imps fled without looking back.
"Long Jun is very capable!"
The gray squirrel came and sighed with emotion.
"It's just a small skill of carving insects, Shejun, I want to go to the mountains to find this Shi Bogong, so I will leave first, thank you Shejun for your help this time!"
Yi Bai didn't dare to ask the gray squirrel for help, and said with his hand.
"Why did Long Jun say this? I have nothing to do, Long Jun has something to do, I will help you! ”
Squirrel said.
"Thank you."
Yibai thanked him again.
"Long Jun will become the demon of Chen's position in the future, don't forget yourself."
Squirrel quipped.
Yi Bai laughed.
The two immediately went to the mountains outside the city.
Neither he nor the gray squirrel showed their original form, and walked forward as human beings.
……
Not much.
Eber and the squirrel entered the miasma-filled mountains.
"The dragon monarch is angry, if it is a mountain spirit, you and I will intimidate it to escape, and it will be difficult to find it when the time comes."
Squirrel spoke.
Its body shook, and it didn't know what method it used, and all the demonic energy was retracted, and there was no trace.
Yi Bai took a look and roughly understood.
This method is the same as the skin ghost, covering the air with the skin, but the skin ghost uses human skin, disguised as an adult, and the skin of the gray squirrel is a special thing, covering all the qi, and it should be a magic weapon.
Yi Bai did not hesitate, and called it 'hidden', and the demonic qi converged in his body and disappeared.
Squirrel and Eber nodded and leaped towards the mountain.
Walking in between moments.
A moat and a rat entered the mountains.
"Long Jun, stay less, since Long Jun can call the whole city to ask where he is, then I should show my skills to Long Jun!"
Squirrel has a heart to show off.
Yi Bai was delighted to hear this, jumped to the side, and waited for the gray squirrel to strike.
"Mountain beasts, show up quickly!"
The gray squirrel chanted a mantra in his mouth, like a dancing god, jumping and jumping in place.
After half a bang, the gray squirrel stomped on the ground.
Suddenly, the entire mountain forest seemed to be shaken.
Yi Bai stared intently.
But he saw hundreds of wild beasts running towards it in the distance.
Tigers, leopards, jackals, snakes, insects, rats, ants, wild boars, mountain deer, all available.
"What a trick to gather beasts!"
Yi Bai originally thought that the gray squirrel was going to summon the rat grandson to find the location of the stone uncle.
I never thought that the gray squirrel would have such a ability, and gathered the wild beasts in the mountains to ask for directions.
This gray squirrel is worthy of being a demon who has followed the real people of the Daomen for thousands of years.
The ability is not lower than him.
Yi Bai sighed.
The gray squirrel not far away asked the beast and came over quickly.
"Long Jun, I have found the mountain spirit, but the mountain stone is the essence, I don't know when I tasted the essence of people, often hide people in the mountains, swallow up their essence."
Squirrel said.
"Where is the stone spirit?"
Yi Bai was in a hurry.
He secretly said in his heart that it was not good.
I'm afraid that grandma, it's hard to be spared.
"Longjun come with me."
The gray squirrel leaped quickly into the mountain.
Yibai followed.
The two hurried quickly, and within three moments, they came to a dark cave.
"Stone Spirit, it's in it."
Squirrel points to the cave.
"Shejun, I'm tired of guarding the entrance of the cave for me."
IPER requested.
His voice fell, and he strode towards the cave.
The gray squirrel agreed and stayed at the mouth of the cave.
……
Yi Bai entered the cave, which was narrow and lightless, and it was difficult to be lightless.
He couldn't walk with a human body, so he called 'change', turned into a mouse, and crawled quickly into the cave.
Not much.
Yi Bai crawled to the end, and at the end, he saw a lot of white bones scattered around, white bones such as human bones, chicken bones, and some unknown animal bones.
呲呲呲......
A strange voice rang out.
Yi Bai looked ahead.
A cave is embedded, the body surface is bumpy, and the big stones of three or four zhang are placed.
There is a small slit in the middle of the boulder, and white gas is constantly being sucked into the small slit.
Yi Bai finally found Grandma.
The old lady was lying on the ground, her breath was dying, her eyes were closed.
Isn't its white spirit the essence of the old lady?
The boulder is devouring its essence, and when the essence is over, the old woman will die.
"Stubborn stone, how dare you do this!"
Yi Bai scolded, interrupting the stone spirit to devour the essence.
The boulder stopped sucking instantly, and the small stitches were closed, and he wanted to pretend to be an ordinary dashi.
"How many people have you devoured passing by? How quickly it becomes a climate! ”
Yi Bai could see at a glance that the big stone demon qi was not weak, and it was already a fast demon pill.
Evil energy occupies most of it.
The boulder was motionless, and he was still loading the stubborn stone.
Yi Bai was annoyed and angry, he said 'change', and then made a human body, with demonic power in his palm, and grabbed it.
"Spare your life, spare your life!"
The big stone finally couldn't bear it anymore, and the small crack opened from the stone, and words came out.
Yi Bai didn't hear it, and when he slapped it, he felt that it was as hard as iron, and he was shocked back a few steps.
He secretly said in his heart, what a stubborn stone, if it is a stone that is always waiting, it will be torn apart if he pats it, but this stone is good.
"It hurts! Spare your life! I have not sinned against you, why have you hurt me! ”
Small cracks in the boulder spit out human words.
"This person has an old relationship with me, you dare to suck his essence, I want to take a look, see how hard your stone body is!"
Yi Bai slapped it again.
"You are also a demon, why do you want to be with people, if you don't eat people, how can I become a big demon, if you don't count, I can worship ten people in a month, please don't hurt me!"
Dashi begs for mercy.
Yi Bai still didn't hear it, and slapped it with his big palm, it was as hard as iron, he knew that the demon power was difficult to hurt the big stone, and immediately spat out the true sound: "a!! ”
A strong wave of qi vibrated from his body, enveloping the power of subduing demons and subduing demons, sweeping in all directions.
The big stone in front of him was unsparing, and under the cry of pain, it shattered and opened.
Yi Bai extinguished the boulder and turned to look at the old woman.
Seeing the old woman's complexion, she also knew that her fate would not be long.
He sighed in his heart.
The old woman's family, how can this be, the life and death of Ah Nian's parents are unknown, but her daughter was made into an adult skin drum, most of the parents are not spared, and now the old woman is also going to die, leaving a young woman alone, how can she survive in the city, even if she survives, I am afraid that life is better than death.
As the saying goes, good and bad depend on each other, but disasters come one after another......
