Chapter 37: Murder (4)
I saw that on the boulder above Jiang Yuan's head, a figure leaned out half of his body and looked down at Jiang Yuan coldly.
That person was the night guard who Jiang Yuan had seen last night who had been infiltrated by the light, his face was covered with blood at this time, and his head was slumped on his shoulders at a strange angle. If it is an ordinary person, where is there life if the neck is bent like this.
Jiang Yuan frowned, although the eyes on the night guard's face were round, he didn't look at him. So where does the gaze come from?
Suddenly, several "hands" grew rapidly on the Night Patrol's body.
It wasn't a hand, but a bug-like black limb that had been clasped to the Night Watchman's body, and the limbs were now wide open, looking terrifying.
The wound in the Night Watch's abdomen was reopened, and a strange human face poked out of the Night Watchman's stomach.
The eyes of that human face were wide open, his face was covered with red slime, and he had a smile on his mouth, but his eyes looked down on Jiang Yuan bloodthirsty and cruel.
The flame in Jiang Yuan's hand suddenly became vigorous:
"Look at your head!"
He slammed the rock under his feet, and the whole person leaped to his feet, and in an instant he was on par with the Night Watchman, and punched him in the face.
The human face quickly retracted into the Night Watchman's body, and at the same time, a black limb stabbed towards Jiang Yuan at a rapid pace.
Jiang Yuan was in mid-air, and he had nowhere to dodge, so he could only withdraw his fist halfway and grab the limbs that were stabbed.
The spider-like limbs were firmly grasped by Jiang Yuan in his palm, and the flames in his hands burned so that the limbs sizzled.
The Night Watchman's body suddenly erupted with a shrill screech like a bug, and his limbs jerked back.
Jiang Yuan also used his strength to land on the top of the boulder, and when he looked towards the Night Watchman, he saw the Night Watchman landing on his hands and feet, jumping on another boulder like a worm, and then jumping under the boulder, disappearing into the shadows, leaving only the sound of rustling between the staggered boulders.
Jiang Yuan stood at the top of the boulder, his eyes searching for the figure of the night guard in the rocks.
"Hidden rats, see how long you can hide!"
He wasn't worried that the Night Guard would escape from the cave, it was daylight outside, and he would be killing himself if he did.
And this grotto is also the end of the cave, as long as he is still hiding in it, he will be able to find it sooner or later.
At this moment, a sudden sound of water sounded in the grotto.
Jiang Yuan turned his head violently:
"Did you escape into the water?"
His body moved quickly, jumping like a dragonfly on the top of each boulder, and landed near the cold pool in a few breaths.
Looking at the dark pool, Jiang Yuan couldn't help but hesitate.
He was able to hurt the demon at this time, relying on the flame of the flame form. And water and fire are incompatible, and I don't know if my flame will be restrained by this pool of water.
Jiang Yuan was about to stretch his palm wrapped in flames into the cold pool, only to see that the flames were still beating underwater, but the flames were much smaller.
"Although it won't be extinguished, its power is much weaker because of the water. It seems that this deep pool cannot be ......"
Since his flames are suppressed by the water, if he fights the Night Patrol underwater, he may not be able to exert his full strength. Jiang Yuan would not easily do something that he was not sure of, so he would not jump into the water to look for the night guard.
Jiang Yuan was about to retract his hand, but suddenly he seemed to touch something.
He grabbed the cold, hard thing with his backhand, and jerked it out of the water.
With a metallic sound, Jiang Yuan realized that it was actually an iron chain that he had pulled out.
The chain was badly corroded, and one end was fixed to the underwater rock wall at the edge of the pool, while the other end extended into the center of the pool.
"Look at what's on the other side of the chain. ”
Jiang Yuan pulled the wrist-thick iron chain with both hands, and a dull sound sounded at the bottom of the pool, followed by large bubbles gushing out of the water.
After a while, the things at the bottom of the pool were finally pulled out of the water by Jiang Yuan.
I saw that it was a man who was bound by iron chains, and was still struggling and writhing.
The man was about two meters tall and covered in a layer of black hair. Two sharp fangs are exposed from the mouth, which are covered with a layer of plankton. His eyes were blood-red, and he stared at Jiang Yuan viciously.
Jiang Yuan noticed that there was a short sword stuck in his chest, and the short sword was also covered with a layer of plankton, so he couldn't see the specific image.
"Zombie?" Jiang Yuan exclaimed, he instantly recognized it, he had seen something similar in the River God Temple, "There is such a good thing?
Jiang Yuan was overjoyed and hurriedly dragged the chained zombie to the shore.
The black-haired zombie let out a low roar from its mouth, writhing all over its body, and the chains that bound him rattled.
The strength of the zombie is incomparably great, but the zombie has not been able to break free from the heavily corroded chain, which is probably the reason for the short sword that pierced his chest.
Jiang Yuan thought for a moment, grabbed the short sword, and then pulled it out violently.
"Roaring ——!"
The zombie let out a wild roar, which reverberated on the stone walls of the cave, constantly reverberating and enduring.
An aura of extreme danger came over the body, and the zombies shook all over their bodies, and the chains that bound their bodies were all broken. A layer of black gas seeped out of its body and began to diffuse.
The zombie's eyes are getting bloodier and redder, and they are about to burst up from the ground.
Jiang Yuan did not hesitate, and the short sword instantly stabbed into the zombie's chest and wounded in place.
The zombie roared unwillingly, but as the dagger pierced in, its whole body suddenly froze.
Despite being able to struggle and writhe slightly, zombies are no longer able to stand up.
"You're too dangerous, it's better to look like this. ”
Jiang Yuan said coldly.
Just now, the sense of danger that this zombie brought to Jiang Yuan was extremely strong, and Jiang Yuan was sure that this black-haired zombie was far stronger than the white-haired zombie in the River Temple.
At the beginning of the fierce battle against the white-haired zombie, Jiang Yuan used sunlight to destroy it.
And now this black-haired zombie, Jiang Yuan felt that even if he entered the form of flame, he might not be able to defeat it.
Where did the black-haired zombies come from, why were they sealed in the cold pool by the short sword, was it left behind by the Wing Sect, or was it much older?
Jiang Yuan didn't care about all this, his eyes greedily scanned the zombie's whole body, like a treasure.
The zombie roared unwillingly, staring at Jiang Yuan fiercely.
"It's really pitiful," Jiang Yuan sighed as he looked at the zombie, "I finally left Hantan, and it fell into my hands......"
He shrugged, then burst into flames with both hands, pressing them towards the zombie's head.
The flames quickly incinerated the black hair off the zombie's head, and began to burn its skin and bones.
The zombies writhed and struggled more and more, but because they were restrained by the daggers, they were helpless about it.
The effect of the fire on the zombies was minimal, but Jiang Yuan was not in a hurry, and slowly incinerated the zombies little by little.
"The sound of the water just now seems to have come from the zombie, so it means that the night guard did not enter the water, and is still somewhere in this grotto...... Leave him alone, this zombie is important. ”
Soon, the zombie's head was burned, but its limbs were still moving.
Jiang Yuan didn't stop, and continued to burn the rest of the zombie.
A spider-like figure slowly appeared behind Jiang Yuan, quietly approaching Jiang Yuan.
It was the Night Watchman who came, as six black limbs poked out of his abdomen and walked slowly on the ground. The Night Watch was like a limp corpse, framed by six black limbs.
As he got closer and closer to Jiang Yuan, his black limbs bent abruptly, and then he jumped up and swooped towards Jiang Yuan from behind.
At this moment, Jiang Yuan's body suddenly swelled, raging flames emerged from his body, and his clothes were burned to the ground, revealing skin like cracks, and there seemed to be magma flowing in it.
His hands and feet also grew sharp claws, and his whole person instantly entered the form of flame.
"Get out!" Jiang Yuan turned around and swept with a wave of his hand, his sharp claws instantly cut off two black limbs, and even cut off the upper body of the Night Guard, "Lao Tzu doesn't have time to pay attention to you now!"
With great force, the spider-like monster flew upside down, its body hidden in the remaining half of the Night Watch's body, and the remaining four limbs kept slicing on the ground, and it ducked into the darkness again.
Jiang Yuan stared coldly at the monster and fled, and did not chase it, but squatted down and continued to burn the zombies intently.
The whole process was boring and boring, and when it came to the back, Jiang Yuan even involuntarily hummed a little song.
The darkness of the grotto sounded from time to time, but the spider-like monster never dared to come near.
Time passed little by little, and Jiang Yuan finally burned all the zombies.
A rich ghostly aura came out, and Jiang Yuan greedily absorbed all of them.
It's easy to absorb the ghost qi, but it takes a lot of effort to digest it.
With the digestion of the ghost qi, Jiang Yuan's form of flame further matured, and his body began to change again.
He continued to grow taller, from more than two meters to more than three meters. The muscles of the whole body also expanded rapidly, and the lines were as hard as rocks, as if there was a terrifying explosive power hidden in them.
The nails of the palms and soles of the feet are also becoming sharper and thicker.
The larger and larger body glowed with a dark red sheen, as if the fire in the body was shining through the surface of the body. The flames around him were also several feet long, drying the damp ground on the shore of the cold pool in an instant.
Jiang Yuan only felt an itch in his head, he stretched out his hand and touched it, only to find that there were sharp horns on both sides of his head.
In addition to being surprised, Jiang Yuan touched his waist again, and a tail actually grew at the tail vertebrae.
"What has become of me?"
Jiang Yuan lay on the edge of the cold pool, looking at himself by the light of the water.
The pool water was roasted by the fire and a large steam rose up, and at a glance, Jiang Yuan had already seen his face clearly.
His face was no longer humanoid, hideous and terrifying, and his eyes, nostrils, and mouth were all bright red.
Jiang Yuan stood up and touched his chin, then he came to a boulder and swung his fist at it.
"Boom!"
A loud noise filled the entire grotto, the gravel was flying and the dust was flying, and the boulder with a rectangle of more than three meters was actually shattered by Jiang Yuan's punch.
"It's so strong!"
Jiang Yuan was still unsatisfied, and he smashed several boulders around him before stopping.
In the darkness of the cavern, the spider-like monster shivered at the loud noise, and it hid more and more slightly towards the darker place.
