Chapter 33: A Peering Gaze

Careless!

This place was blocked by Luo Yuqing's people, and I should have thought a long time ago that they would release water ghosts in the water and ambush people who went up the mountain along the river.

He was entangled in the hair of the water ghost, and he couldn't move.

I couldn't breathe underwater, and soon I couldn't bear it, and the pain in my lungs was scorching, like a fire burning, and every second I held it, the pain level would increase exponentially. I felt my brain dizzy, my body twitched spasmodically, and I realized I was going to die!

But I don't want to die!

My parents' revenge has not been avenged, Bai Shuqin still needs me to save her, I can't die!

I struggled in vain, my hands clawed wildly, and suddenly I felt the scabbard of the dagger, I quickly reached out and pulled it out, and stabbed the female ghost indiscriminately.

Yes!

The female ghost screamed and plunged into the mud, and the hair wrapped around my body suddenly loosened, and I hurriedly jumped up and out of the water, gasping for air. Because I sucked too hard, some water entered my lungs and immediately choked and coughed.

I looked so embarrassed that I crawled and fled to the shore.

"What's going on?"

Xue Shiyu and dwarf winter melon ran over, and seeing my embarrassed appearance, Xue Shiyu hurriedly asked!

"There are water ghosts in the river!"

I was depressed, coughing and shouting at them, "I accidentally dragged her down!"

I was so depressed that I vomited blood, this is really careless, if I was cautious, I wouldn't have suffered such a big loss and almost gave up my life.

Xue Shiyu ran in front of me, stretched out her hand to help me up, and walked to the fire.

His legs were scorching painful, and when he opened his trousers, he saw that both legs were full of bruises, and blood began to seep in many places. Seeing the injury on my leg, Xue Shiyu frowned, took out a bottle of medicinal powder from his backpack, poured it on his palm, and then gently applied it to my leg.

There were too many wounds, almost all over the small half of her body, and her bottle of medicine was not enough at all, and some parts were too embarrassing to apply to me.

Xue Shiyu also realized this problem, opened the backpack, took out another bottle of medicine, and poured out two pills from it to me, saying that this medicine can invigorate blood circulation and eliminate blood stasis and inflammation, but the effect of internal administration will be slower.

I was terrified, crouching by the fire, still feeling chills, no matter how warm I roasted.

I realized that I was in big trouble, the female ghost's hair strangled me, and some yin qi entered my body along the wound, so I was chilled. Although I am a ghost raiser, the time for raising ghosts is too short to be immune to this extremely aggressive yin qi.

My body became more and more uncomfortable, and this symptom medicine had no effect, so I silently recited the "Jizo King Bodhisattva Honwish Sutra" in my heart, but it had little effect.

The "Jizo King Bodhisattva Honwish Sutra" can suppress ghosts, but it cannot expel the evil energy on the body, these are two concepts.

I was so uncomfortable that I wanted to die, and I began to recite the "Peacock King Sutra" silently, visualizing the statue of the Buddha's mother and the big peacock king in my heart, and the big peacock seal on my hands, I didn't expect that this time it had an effect, and the yin qi that invaded the body was slowly dissolved, and the body was much more relaxed at once.

I was a little surprised in my heart, I didn't expect the Dharma passed on to me by my uncle to be so powerful!

"This is the Great Peacock Mudra of the Buddha Mother of Tantra?"

Seeing my handprint, a trace of shock flashed in Xue Shiyu's eyes, and she said very excitedly, "Can you teach me?"

This...

I was a little depressed, and my uncle didn't say that I couldn't teach the Fa, but I wasn't a guru and I couldn't give empowerment to people at all. The Dharma is profound, and if you practice indiscriminately without empowerment, not only will you not be able to achieve positive results, but you will also have big problems and even die.

"Forget it, it's boring!"

Seeing that I was embarrassed, she probably also thought of the crux of the problem, and her face was full of disappointment.

After resting for a while, my legs still hurt a lot, but fortunately it was only a skin injury, not a bone injury, which is a blessing in misfortune.

Extinguishing the fire, we continued our walk up the hill.

There are water ghosts in the river, and this forest is definitely not safe, just now Pippi brought back a bone with a very heavy yin qi, and we all took care of it, for fear of falling into the trap again.

After noon, the oblique sunlight did not shine into the forest, and the temperature in the forest dropped rapidly, and soon became cold, and from time to time there was a bird's cry in the forest, which sounded very much like a crow, and the sound was terrible.

Maybe it's psychological, but I always feel like there's a pair of peeping eyes around me, watching us all the time.

But every time I looked in that direction, I couldn't see anything.

Seeing that I was suspicious, Xue Shiyu frowned and asked me what I found?

I said that there was someone in the woods who had been watching us, and asked her if she felt like she was being watched?

"Don't worry, there are people who can't escape Pippi's eyes!"

Xue Shiyu smiled, let me not be too nervous, her skin is very reliable, she has never missed, if she finds an enemy, she will come back to warn. I think about it, Pipsqueak is a bobcat, the beast's perception is much stronger than that of a human, it doesn't find a problem, I wonder what to do.

The dwarf winter melon led the way, one foot deep and one foot shallow, and when it was almost dark, we came to a deserted village.

Dwarf Winter Melon said that this is Tianbao Village, more than ten years ago there was a plague in the village, many people died, and the rest of the people were also migrated, and this place has been abandoned since then, and no one has returned. It's only 15 miles from Shipan Village, and there is a deserted bluestone road that leads straight there, so we'll stay here tonight and leave tomorrow at dawn.

A lot of people died in this village, and the yin qi was very heavy and heavy.

However, we are all ghost keepers, and our fear of ghosts is far less serious than that of ordinary people, so we don't take it seriously.

When I walked to the entrance of the village, I saw a persimmon tree planted on the side of the road, the main trunk was half a meter thick, and the branches stretched wide with teeth and claws, covering the road out of the village tightly. Now it is the season of persimmon ripening, one by one persimmons hanging on the branches, the yellow can be very attractive, I smell a very attractive fragrance.

However, I know that the persimmons on the tree cannot be eaten, and they must be picked and put in the straw shell for a period of time, and then they can only be eaten when they are completely ripe, otherwise they will have 100% diarrhea.

Standing under the persimmon tree, there was something strange in my heart.

Many people like persimmons, and they are planted in many places, so it is not surprising to find a persimmon tree of this size here. However, the persimmon tree is not suitable for planting at the entrance of the village, let alone planting on the side of the road, because the word "persimmon" is "dead", and the persimmon tree is planted on the side of the road, which is equivalent to the word "death" to close the road, which is a very taboo thing.

Walking into the village, it was already completely dark.

We didn't plan to go too deep, we found a good house at the head of the village, unscrewed the rusty iron lock, and walked into the hall, I found that it was damp and wet, and there was a large pool of black water in the middle of the house, and there was a thick mold moss on the walls, and a very choking musty smell came to the face, and the environment was extremely bad, and the inside of the hall was not as clean as the eaves outside.

I cleaned up the weeds around and found some dry wood around to make a fire.

After a day of drilling in the woods, we were all so tired that we vomited blood, ate a little something, and sat by the fire and didn't want to move, no different from a puddle of mud.

Xue Shiyu summoned Pipsqueak back, and the lynx squatted beside her, leaning on her very meekly, sticking out its tongue and licking her face. Xue Shiyu hugged Pipi, used his body as a pillow, and soon fell into a deep sleep.

Leaning against the wall, the dwarf winter melon also quickly fell asleep.

There had been a lot of deaths in this village before, and there must have been something unclean, so I summoned the drunken maniacs out just to be on the safe side.

This guy devoured a ghost slave raised by a dwarf winter melon, and the ghost aura on his body was a little stronger, which made me very uneasy.

Last night, it took me three times to take effect, and if his strength continues to grow, I doubt I will be able to control him.

There is still a worry in my heart, the former drunken maniac, even if he kills the enemy, he will not devour the ghost qi on the enemy's body, as long as I don't feed him Yin Qi beads, I can control the growth of his strength. But now, he's learned to devour other ghost slaves to strengthen himself, and I can't control his growth in strength, it's a time bomb that can explode at any moment, and I'm helpless.

I had to start thinking about whether I should abandon him immediately and choose a ghost slave to cultivate again.

My mind was in turmoil.

Even if you are physically and mentally exhausted, you don't feel sleepy.

Suddenly!

I felt that peeping gaze reappear, and I quickly turned to look behind me, and under the persimmon tree at the entrance of the village, stood a woman dressed in white, her eyes glowing green, staring straight at me.

Seeing me looking at her, the woman grinned at me, and her face suddenly fell down piece by piece, revealing patches of red flesh and blood, which was terrifying.

Ghosts!

I gasped, grabbed the handle of the Buddha Shadow with my right hand, and quietly pushed Xue Shiyu with my left hand, telling her to hurry up.

Xue Shiyu slept in a daze, opened her eyes in a daze, and asked me what was the matter?

I pointed to the persimmon tree and whispered, "There's a ghost there!"

Xue Shiyu was also startled, looked over there, and said a little angrily: "Where are the ghosts, don't be suspicious of the ghosts at night!"

This...

I glanced over there and was stunned, because there was nothing under the persimmon tree, could it really be that I was dazzled?

"Don't disturb my rest!"

Xue Shiyu yawned again and again, and waved her fist at me very arrogantly: "Otherwise, I don't want a ladylike image, and I will beat you!"

Belch!

I was completely depressed and quickly apologized to her.

Seeing her fall asleep on Pippi's stomach again, I wondered in my heart, there was a female ghost under the tree, how could she say that she was gone?

That's it!

The half-meter-thick persimmon tree suddenly changed its appearance, and on each fork, there was a person in a costume hanging, their tongues stretched out one by one, their eyes all bulging out, and their eyes stared at me and smiled at me!

Like the female ghost, when they laughed, all the skin on their faces fell off, and they flew all over the sky like leaves, and the scene was terrifying!

With courage, I counted the corpses hanging from the persimmon tree, no more, no less, exactly forty-six, and three white rope nooses hanging there, fluttering in the wind. I suddenly had a very bad premonition in my heart, we just have three living people here, and these three rope nooses are prepared for us?
