The red lantern fluttered in front of the road, but Jiang Yuan was not in a hurry to step forward.

He jumped into the drainage ditch on the side of the road and slowly approached the red lantern with a bent down.

When he was only about ten meters away from the red lantern, Jiang Yuan could see clearly that it was not a lantern at all, but a blood-red light cluster.

The light was red and bright, and it was impossible to see what was inside.

Jiang Yuan hesitated, but still did not continue to approach.

This is the first time he has seen such a thing, and he doesn't know if he can deal with it.

I saw that the red light was constantly circling around, as if looking for something.

Suddenly, the light stopped moving, and then flickered at a rapid frequency. It looks like a light bulb that turns on quickly.

Jiang Yuan quietly watched the light cluster flicker rapidly, not understanding what this light cluster was doing.

After a while, there was a sudden sound of footsteps.

Jiang Yuan followed the prestige, only to see that it was a merchant ship that kept vigil slowly out of the cabin, went up to the dock, and then walked slowly along the path.

"And people who are not afraid of death?"

Jiang Yuan was puzzled in his heart, after nightfall, very few people would go out and walk around. What's more, there are a lot of people missing here these days, and there is such a conspicuous and strange thing as a red light cluster.

When the boatman got closer, Jiang Yuan realized that something was wrong.

I saw that the shipwright was expressionless, and his eyes were staring directly at the red light.

His steps and movements were stiff and weak, as if he were a soulless walking corpse.

"Is it sleepwalking? or is it ...... Hooked by that red light?"

Jiang Yuan only felt that the appearance of this boatman was very similar to the sleepwalking he had seen.

As the boatman approached, the red light flickered faster and faster.

It stands to reason that if a person looks directly at such a rapidly flickering light cluster, the eyes and brain will not be able to stand it after a long time.

However, the boatman didn't even blink an eyelid, and came to the light group step by step before stopping.

I saw that the ball of light floated in front of the boatman's face, and after a quick flicker, it gradually subsided, and the red light gradually dimmed.

During the whole process, the boatman remained expressionless and motionless.

The next scene made Jiang Yuan frown.

I saw that in the gloomy light, several black limbs like spiders or crabs suddenly stretched out.

The limbs were wide open, like thin hands with seven or eight fingers, and they hugged the boatman's head. Then, the whole group of light also caught up with the boatman's face.

The smell of blood began to fill the air, and the boatman's body began to twitch.

"What the hell is this?" Jiang Yuan watched everything quietly, but finally did not step forward.

That light group didn't know what other weird abilities there were, and Jiang Yuan didn't want to risk his life easily until he figured out its strength.

The whole process lasted about a quarter of an hour, and I saw that the boatman's body was like a burning candle, and the flesh and blood on his body suddenly began to "melt". First the head, then the body and hands, followed by the legs.

After a while, the whole person, including the clothes on his body, turned into a puddle of yellow water.

Jiang Yuan instantly understood the disappearance case:

"It's no wonder that the missing people don't see people alive or dead, they don't see their bodies, it turns out that they have become like this. ”

The black limbs of the insects slowly retracted into the light cluster, and the red light emitted by the light cluster became more and more red and bright.

The ball of light hovered in mid-air for a while, and suddenly began to flicker again.

As the light flickered, footsteps sounded again from the path.

"Is this strange thing hunted by such means?" Jiang Yuan secretly wondered, "It seems to ...... It can make people around it hallucinate and walk automatically, or it can make people lose control of their bodies...... But why is it okay for me to be closest to him, is it because it didn't notice me?"

Jiang Yuan was thinking about it, the footsteps were getting closer and closer, and the person who came back also appeared within the range of the red light.

After seeing the person who came, Jiang Yuan couldn't help but be taken aback:

"It's her!"

I saw that it was not someone else who came back, it was Wang Yan, the proprietress of Zuixiaolou.

Wang Yan had obviously fallen asleep before, she only had a pink belly pocket and dirty pants on her body at this time, a large piece of clotted tender flesh was exposed, a pair of legs were long and round, and she didn't even wear shoes on her feet.

Wang Yan's mouth opened slightly, her eyes were as bright as the previous boatmen, and she looked at the red light in a daze.

Her graceful body also slowly approached the light cluster, and under the light of the morning red light, her fair skin was coated with a layer of hazy ruddy.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Yuan shook his head slightly.

Such a charming beauty is about to turn into a puddle of yellow water, which is really a bit of a feeling of burning the piano and boiling the crane.

He has known Wang Yan for less than a day, and he can't talk about friendship at all, let alone take risks to save her.

I saw Wang Yan standing quietly in front of the light group, and several black limbs stretched out from the light group again, grabbing Wang Yan's head.

That's when the situation changed dramatically.

A rush of footsteps suddenly came from the road, and I saw about four or five people running quickly towards this side.

Jiang Yuan looked carefully, and saw that those people were wearing uniform black uniforms, with sharp knives hanging from their waists, black hats on their heads, and golden animal patterns embroidered on the placket and cuffs.

Their costumes looked somewhat similar to the soap suits worn by the catchers, but they were more ornate and cold.

Jiang Yuan suddenly remembered that the "Night Guard" he had heard from the mouth of the catcher seemed to be dressed like this.

With the sudden appearance of the Night Watch, the red light seemed to be frightened, and the black limbs withdrew into the light, and then flickered themselves again at a high frequency.

Only one of the Night Watch guards shouted:

"Turn your head around! Don't look at it!"

The Night Patrol hurriedly turned their heads.

Only the one who rushed to the front didn't have time to turn his head, his eyes and soul seemed to be intimidated by the flickering light, and he couldn't look away at all. His feet began to step forward, and he involuntarily walked towards the light.

The red light suddenly accelerated, and flew towards the Night Watchman.

"Get out of the way!"

Some of his companions shouted loudly, some tried to reach for him, and some took out a jade bottle from their bosoms and quickly removed the stopper.

However, the speed of the light cluster was unimaginably fast, and in the blink of an eye, it pounced on the Night Watchman's face, and the black limbs stretched out from the light cluster one after another, hugging the Night Watchman's head tightly.

At the same time, a Night Watch guard finally removed the cork from the porcelain vase, and poured all the liquid from the jade vase onto the ball of light.

A shrill sound rang out from within the light, like a wounded insect squeaking desperately.

The rest of the Night Watch followed suit, each pulling out a jade bottle and pouring the liquid on top of the light.

Jiang Yuan saw it clearly, the liquid in the jade bottle was red, and it seemed to be ...... Some kind of blood.

The blood seems to have been mixed with water and does not appear sticky enough. To Jiang Yuan's surprise, the feeling of that kind of blood gave him was very familiar, the wooden card that Sun Daming gave him at the beginning, and the feeling on Yan Gudao's body, were very similar to the feeling of that blood.

After the light cluster was poured with blood in the jade bottle, the red light emitted by it dimmed a lot, and faintly you could see a hideous black shadow in the light cluster, very much like a large spider with a flat belly.

The light group struggled for a while, and finally couldn't hold on to retract the black limbs, breaking away from the Night Watch's face.

The Night Guard slowly fell to the ground, and there was a bloody hole in his eye socket, and there was little blood around the blood hole, but there was some white gelatinous slurry.

The ball of light detached, but it was still fierce, and it quickly rushed into the belly of a night watchman.

The Night Watchman's clothes were torn open, and the light cut through his skin and into his stomach.

The night guard cried out in pain and fear:

"It's! It's running into me!"

Immediately after, the Night Watch slumped to the ground, his head and limbs twisting wildly, as if his whole body was out of control.

One of his companions hurriedly reached into the wound in the Night Watchman's abdomen, trying to rip the ball of light out.

Seeing this, another companion shouted:

"Don't touch it! it's poisonous!"

However, it was too late, and the Night Watchman screamed and retracted his hand, and the palm of his hand had turned into yellow water, and the effect of corrosion and ablation was still spreading rapidly to his arm.

His companion hurriedly swung his knife and severed both of his arms, finally saving one of his lives.

At this time, the night guard who had been drilled into his abdomen by the light suddenly jumped up from the ground, and a layer of black thorns appeared on his skin, like strange sharp hairs.

His head rotated strangely three hundred and sixty degrees, his eyes and mouth were wide, and black spikes had grown inside. Then, he suddenly fled quickly into the night.

Of the five night guards who came at the beginning of the period, one was killed and one seriously injured, and only two were still standing, and they watched their companions flee from the light, but they didn't dare to chase them at all.

"What should I do? ”

"We're careless, it's a ripe worm. We are no match for it, we have to go back and ask for support. ”

The Night Watchmen discussed and sought a strategy.

Jiang Yuan felt that the opportunity had come:

"If you escape, you must have been injured and your strength has been greatly reduced. Now, catch up and slaughter it and seize the ghost qi!"

Immediately, Jiang Yuan took out the saber that caught fast, held the blade with his left hand, and pulled it violently with his right hand.

However, the flame did not appear.

Jiang Yuan was stunned for a moment and looked towards his palm. The palm of his left hand was marked by a white mark from the blade, but the skin was not damaged in the slightest.

"It's ...... The saber is too blunt? No, it's my skin that's hard!"

Ever since absorbing the ghost energy of the River Temple zombies, Jiang Yuan knew that his physical body had become tougher and stronger than before, but he didn't expect that it had become so strong.

Seeing that the Night Patrol guard who had been infiltrated by the light was about to flee, Jiang Yuan grabbed the blade again and tried to cut through the skin to obtain blood.

This time, Jiang Yuan's strength increased a few points, and when the long knife was pulled out of his palm, it even made a piercing sound.

Such a force even causes the weak points of the blade to be a little curled. However...... His skin was still not cut.

Jiang Yuan was completely dumbfounded this time, he couldn't cut his skin, so how to use blood to traumatize the demon in the future?

Jiang Yuan's movement on this side attracted the attention of the night guard who was still alive at the scene.

They were startled when they had already become frightened birds, and nervously shouted at Jiang Yuan with their knives:

"What kind of demons?
