Chapter Twenty-Three: The Cursed Beast Five
The redwood tree was so tall that we stared at it for a long time without seeing its shadow, and the liquid was dripping from the tree, dripping all over us. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
At this moment, the sound of Suo Suo came from the tree, but it seemed to be a shower of rain on the tree. Suddenly, its body swooped down from the tree, and its hands grabbed a servant and was about to retract again. At this time, how can we let him succeed, Huang Zhutou and their big knives beckoned directly.
I kicked on the trunk of the tree, and the man rushed towards it, and the sword in my hand stabbed it hard in one of its left eyes, only to hear the sound of "aggressive ......" from its arm and face, and my long sword also stabbed steadily into its left eye.
The big knife in their hands didn't seem to hurt it much, its upper body was as hard as a stake, and ordinary big knives couldn't hurt it if they cut at it.
And my sword made it scream in pain, and I was about to pull out the long sword and stab it in the right eye, but when I pulled out the long sword, I felt that the long sword sank, but I could not pull out the long sword in the slightest, and when I looked at it, I saw that it had freed one hand and was clutching my long sword.
I took advantage of the momentum to rush upward, and when I stabbed it in the left eye, I was already castrated, and I should have fallen down, but it grabbed my sword at this time, and I grabbed the hilt of the sword and did not let go, and it was lifted in the air.
Its power was terrifying, and with the other hand it grasped the arm of the officer, and this hand held the blade of my sword, and I and the officer were both lifted in the air.
A stream of fluid flowed from its left eye, which was scattered on my body and the officer's body, and I didn't know how much blood was in its body, and it had already dripped a lot of liquid when it was on the tree, and the liquid in its eyes was flowing down in strands, making me and the official miserable.
"Poof"
At that moment, a large knife slashed at its neck, and the blade was half submerged, and it screamed, and at once let me and the official go, and I and the official fell under the tree. I'm better, the monster didn't hurt me, but the officer held his arm and groaned in pain, it was so strong that it was afraid that it would break the officer's arm. Actually, as long as I let go of the sword, I could easily get out, but once I let go of the sword, the official will be dragged to the tree by it.
At this time, there was another "poof" sound, and I saw that the big knife in the hand of the yellow catcher was slashing at the neck of the monster, the force of this knife was very accurate, and it was cutting at the wound left by the first knife, and this knife almost cut off its head.
It didn't scream anymore at this time, but it was afraid that it wouldn't be able to scream even if it wanted to, so it hung upside down, clutching its hands wildly, but it didn't catch anything. Blood spurted out of its chest, splashing all over us, slimy.
I was directly below it with this official, and I felt as if someone had poured a basin of stinky water on my head, and I was so frightened that I quickly hid with this official to the side.
As soon as we left the tree, its body fell from the tree, its head hanging from its neck with only a layer of skin attached, and its huge body churned on the ground, rolling up a cloud of dust. It didn't take long for its upper body to stop moving, but its lower body was still alive and kicking on the ground like the broken tail.
We were all panting, neither of us spoke first, and we were all a little stunned when we stood under the redwood tree.
After a long time, a servant muttered, "Brother Huang, what kind of monster is this?"
Huang Zhutou said: "I don't know, go, you two go to the cave to take a look, is the body of the master still there?"
The official who spoke answered and beckoned to the other officer, and the two ran towards the mountain, and after a while, the two of them hurriedly ran for a while, and one said, "Brother Huang......! Gone......"
His "Brother Huang" shouted very urgently, but in the end, his voice was quieter.
I shuddered and looked at Huang Zhutou, only to see that Huang Zhutou was looking at me, his face pale.
Huang Zhutou said: "Go find some firewood and raise the fire." ”
The officials hesitated a little, and one said, "Brother Huang, this place is too humid, how can the fire be raised?"
Huang Zhutou said in a deep voice: "If you can't rise, you have to rise, I want to see what this monster looks like!"
The man: "Yes." ”
Several officials hurriedly scattered around, looking for dry firewood, and I have to say that at such a humid foot of the mountain, they really found some dry firewood.
When the fire was lit, the light of the fire illuminated us, and we were all dumbfounded, only to see that everyone's clothes seemed to change color, to pale green. Huang Zhutou and the others were covered with green liquid one by one, but this official and I seemed to be covered in a green coat, green liquid from head to toe.
The corpse lying under the tree was also illuminated by the firelight, and we did not see the monster clearly until this time.
The upper body of this corpse is somewhat similar to that of a human, except that its chest is not covered with hair, but similar to the abdomen of a firefly, with a transparent membrane, and the cavity is full of water, except for bones, there are no visceral organs in the cavity. What frightened us the most was that its lower body was indeed the body of a huge bean worm, with four pairs of gastropods on the left and right sides of the body, and the tips of the feet were pitch black and sharp.
I've cut off its back tail, and it's dripping with green liquid. I couldn't help but tremble, and my cold hair stood up again, and said, "Huang Zhutou, what kind of monster is this?"
Huang Zhutou and the others were also stunned, Huang Zhutou turned the monster's head over with the big knife in his hand, frowned and said, "I'm afraid this is the Shi Dart Master." ”
He said it very easily, but I was struck by lightning and lost my voice: "How is it possible?"
Huang Zhutou used a knife to pick at its face, pointed the tip of the knife at its right ear, which was about to fall off, and said, "Brother Gu, what do you think this is?"
I looked at the tip of his knife and saw that it was wearing a small brass ring on its right ear.
It was the Historian's earrings.
I gasped and my mind went blank. How can what is happening in front of him make sense? Shi Dart Master is clearly dead, and it can be said that the dead can no longer die, but now he can turn into such a ghost, and even jump around.
Is this the art of curses? Hanmu seeks debts, and the master turns into a big worm to collect debts?
I was a little silent, and the shock in my heart was hard to calm for a long time.
There was a rooster crowing in the distance, and it seemed to be almost dawn, but I didn't think it had been fighting for a long time, but I didn't expect to toss it all night.
Huang Zhutou looked at the sky and said, "It's almost dawn, let's burn this person." ”
When the officials heard this, one of them ran to the foot of the mountain and dragged the broken tail and threw it on the corpse of the master of the stone, and I finally saw that there was a miserable white bone foot at the end of the broken tail.
I guess it's the only left foot of the Historian, right?
A servant stepped forward to throw a torch at the corpse on the ground, but at that moment the sudden change occurred. As soon as the official approached the corpse on the ground, a foul-smelling white smoke suddenly rose from the corpse's body.
We were all taken aback, thinking that it was coming back to life again, so we quickly pulled back and jumped into the distance. However, it was not what we thought, it was just white smoke coming out of the body, and it didn't come back to life.
My heart moved, and I suddenly thought of Tao Qingfeng's group of people, the white smoke coming out of its body was exactly the same as the white smoke coming out of Tao Qingfeng's body, the smell was pungent, and the group of big men died after their heads were cut off, the same situation as this monster. Is there anything involved?
When the foul white smoke cleared, I couldn't wait, and hurriedly ran under the tree, and when I came to the redwood tree, I saw that the body lying under the tree was indeed the corpse of the master of the dart.
Huang Zhutou also followed, looked at Shi Dart's corpse, and muttered, "Burn the corpse." ”
When the official with the torch heard this, he immediately threw the torch on the corpse of the master of the dart, and as soon as the torch touched the body of the master of the stone, it burst into flames, and in just a moment, the body of the master was burned to charcoal.
By this time, the sky was already dark. We also stopped staying and walked in the direction of Chenzhou City. I took off all my coat, which was stained with green liquid, wiped my face and hair in reverse, and threw it into the grass by the roadside.
Huang Zhutou and they are all the same, taking off their coats to wipe their hands and feet as they walk, but their coats can't be thrown away at will like me. A servant seemed to be a little excited, and said: "This time is a long experience, the curse technique of the Western Regions can actually make a dead person become such a monster, Brother Huang, this time Lord Zhizhou is afraid that he will reward us again, right?"
Another official continued: "That's natural, Brother Huang is quite appreciated by Lord Lu, this time he solved such a strange case, the reward will definitely be indispensable, but it's a pity that Cui Laosan and Haisheng The two boys ran away halfway, and this reward will never have their share, hehe." ”
Huang Zhutou also had some joy on his face, and said angrily: "The murderer who killed Shi Dart has not been caught yet, how can it be regarded as solving the case? ”
I nodded to myself.
Thinking back to the appearance of the dart master who had just turned into a big bug, I was still nervous. It's really unacceptable to encounter such a thing this time, but at the same time, I have begun to believe that when the curse is said, no matter what other people say, it is someone else's statement. After all, I've seen it myself, so I can't believe it.
Huang Zhutou is right, now we have only discovered the existence of the curse technique, but we still have no clue about the person behind the curse technique cast by the Shi Dart Master, and that person is the person we are really looking for. Shi Dart's death can't be so unclear, and my group of dart brothers don't want to see Shi Dart so wronged, and the people behind the scenes still have to find out.
But I'm not as optimistic as the Yellow Catchers, a dead master can turn into a worm, and it's so difficult to deal with, if the person behind the back has thousands of corpses in his hands, wouldn't there be thousands of big bugs?
Hanmu is looking for debts, is this how he finishes looking for debts?
With a long sigh, I couldn't help but look up at the sky, and the east was already white. (To be continued.) )
