Chapter 14: The Skinless Man
Hua Xin had also been abused and beaten, but it was not as good as one-tenth of this person, so he felt pity and comforted the skinless man: "Don't be afraid, we won't hurt you." β
The skinless man was frightened, and he could hear others talking, but he just hugged his head and face, and muttered, "Don't fight...... Don't fight......"
Gradually getting used to the picture in front of him, Chiba adjusted his state, stabilized his mind, looked around the room, and confirmed that there was no trace of the monster before stepping into the door: "I won't beat you, you tell me, where is the monster?"
A burst of lotus fragrance hit the skinless man, relieving the restlessness of the skinless man.
The skinless man peeked through the gap between his fingers, the two were strange and had no intention of making a move, and their emotions calmed down a little, but they did not dare to reply, and still shrank at the foot of the bed and trembled.
Hua Xin took out a porcelain bottle from the Qiankun bag around her waist and sprinkled the powder in the bottle evenly on the skinless man's arms.
There was a coolness from the wound, and the skinless man saw that the two of them were kind, and took the initiative to treat him, removed his arm, and opened his mouth: "You...... You guys...... You're not here to beat me?"
The skinless man's entire head leaked out, not a single piece of white skin, and two eyeballs were hollow in their sockets, like a skeleton with only flesh and blood.
Chiba was hit again, closed his eyes and made enough preparations to open them, closed them again and opened them, and repeated them several times before he got better: "Is it the monster that tortured you like this?"
"No...... No. β
"What's that?"
The skinless man turned his back and said no more, as if unwilling to mention it.
Hua Xin's eyes were sharp, and when he saw a protrusion that looked like a mushroom growing on the back of the skinless man's neck, he gestured to Chiba.
Sure enough, the black gas emanated from this bulge.
"What's on the back of your neck?"
The skinless man touched his neck, there was nothing but a scar on it, and honestly replied, "There is blood." β
The mushroom void moved through the skinless man's hand, and the two realized that the mushroom was not an entity, and the naked eye could not see it.
Chiba pointed his finger on the mushroom, and wisps of black gas gushed out from the mushroom, submerging into Chiba's fingertips, and in a breath, all the black gas was sucked away by Chiba, and the mushroom on the back of the skinless man's neck disappeared.
It was only the black gas on the skinless people that disappeared, and the thatched hut was still filled with a rich black gas.
"Mushrooms are clumps of things, look where they grow. "Chiba instructed Hua Xindao.
Hua Xin looked closely at the skinless man's body, and then looked around the room, not all around the top of his head, and finally found a dark mushroom under the table.
Moving away from the table, Hua Xin pointed the mushroom to Chiba: "It's the culprit?"
Chiba carefully discerned it, and didn't recognize what kind of variety it was: "The demonic qi is indeed emitted from it, I have never seen such a mushroom in the earth realm, it must be a demon realm variety, and it is picked." β
As soon as he heard that he was going to pick mushrooms, the skinless man staggered over, stopped in front of the mushrooms, and said excitedly: "I can't pick them, I can't pick them, I moved here, only this mushroom has been with me, I can't pick them!" If you want to eat mushrooms, I will go to the mountains early tomorrow morning to pick them for the two of you, and ask them not to pick this one." I don't have anything left, I can't even leave it. β
The skinless man really recognized this monster, and they all said that the demon species was insidious and cunning, and they must have confused this person.
Chiba said toughly: "This is a monster, give it some time, it will become a climate, but it can be psychic, and it will be difficult to deal with at that time." And again, is it not by him that you are so like, and if you take it, you will be healed. β
The humans of the Earth Realm are ignorant, and Chiba thinks that as long as they explain the power of it, the skinless people will know how to choose.
But the skinless man resolutely refused, and hesitated to tell the truth: "It's just a mushroom, not some monster that harms me......!" I, I was beaten by the villagers!"
Chiba didn't believe a word in these words.
It is said that demons are not good, and in the demon realm, no matter how evil the demon is, he will not start to bully and be weak.
A slightly stronger demon will either beat you to the ground, or simply kill you, and will never abuse you like this. This kind of torture and killing costs a great deal of merit.
Demons are still like this, and people are the chief of all souls, and they will never act like this.
This mushroom is afraid that it has the ability to hallucinate, and the skinless man should be controlled by it.
If you can't do soft, you can only come hard.
Chiba grabbed the handle of the whip, flicked his tail and imprisoned the skinless man, threw him on the bed, and said to Hua Xin, "Look at him, I'll deal with this broken mushroom." β
Hua Xin is also a demon, and he knows that the demon species is sinister, and he doesn't believe what the skinless man says, so he comforted: "Wait a minute, you can get rid of it, don't be afraid." β
Chiba squatted down, holding the mushroom in one hand, and a steady stream of black qi poured into his body.
"Who the hell are you!, why do you have to get along with a mushroom!" the skinless man's wound was so painful from the whip that he didn't dare to struggle, couldn't stop the two, and asked powerlessly.
No one answered him.
As Chiba absorbs it, the mushroom sheds its magic power and shriveles down at a speed visible to the naked eye.
It wasn't until all the demonic qi in the house was absorbed that Chiba let go.
Hua Xin teased: "No wonder the God Emperor sent you to purify demons, you are really a monster nemesis." β
The body of the thousand leaves is a magic petal Buddha stamen heavy lotus, born with a magic petal, as soon as it touches the demonic energy, it can automatically inhale the petals and supply the nutrients needed by the magic petals. On weekdays, no monsters appear, and only with a small amount of demonic energy between heaven and earth, they can grow.
This makes her the only monster nemesis in heaven and earth. Other immortals, demons, and mages can only exorcise demons with scripture spells, and the demonic energy is scattered, and they can still reunite when they encounter opportunities. And Chiba is to directly inhale the demonic qi and use it for his own use, which can really be called pure demons.
"The entire Heavenly Realm knows that the God Emperor is private, and if it weren't for an easy errand, he might not have sent me. β
Both thought that was the end of the matter.
Chiba stood up and clapped his hands, and ordered, "Dig it out and burn it when the sun rises, and this person should be fine." β
Calculating the time, less than two moments before dawn, Hua Xin found a small hoe from the door, dug a pit outside the door, and pulled out the mushrooms when he entered the door.
Fungi generally do not have rhizomes, and when you pull out this mushroom, Hua Xin finds that this one not only has rhizomes, but also has deep roots.
When he took the small hoe and kept digging down to a depth of three feet, and took out the whole rhizome, the darkness before dawn came, and the room was suddenly much darker.
As a result, neither of them noticed anything entwined around the end of the rhizome.
When a ray of sunlight returned to the earth, and the two were ready to burn the mushrooms, they saw what was attached to the rhizomeβa piece of tortoise shell the size of a palm.
Chiba picked up the tortoise shell, the nicks were badly worn, and the complex structure could be vaguely recognized, and each nick still contained an inconspicuous demonic aura.
Obviously, the mushroom grows on the tortoise shell, and it should be this tortoise shell that provides the mushroom with the magic it needs to grow.
After absorbing the remaining demonic energy on the tortoise shell, Chiba put the tortoise shell into the Qiankun bag: "I don't know where this tortoise shell came from, let's burn the mushroom first." β
Hua Xin obeyed the order, took out the fire fold, and burned the mushrooms in the pit dug earlier.
After making sure that there were no bones left of the mushroom, the two returned to check on the skinless man.
The skinless man is still scarred, and even after the sun, the details of the skin and flesh can be seen more clearly, and it looks more and more penetrating.
