Chapter 39: Follow Me

"Maybe that guy who released the cold arrow is a ghost!"

was frightened by Song Henian's words, and the people in the city were amazed.

But it's right to think about it, that guy has been hiding in the shadows, and at first he also released cold arrows, and then Yang Xue and the others climbed to the top of the city, but they disappeared mysteriously. If he was a normal mortal, why didn't he suddenly have a cold arrow during the melee just now, wasting the opportunity to sneak attack in vain?

"But ......"

Yang Ao was still suspicious, and asked, "Isn't the Netherworld a primordial god? How does he use a bow and arrow?" Also, when we were about to reach the top of the city, there was another person who swung his sword and cut the rope, is that also the Netherworld?"

Xue Yu also nodded when he heard this, and shook his head again, looking confused.

Song Henian raised his white eyebrows again, and said: "This one, or two netherworlds, must have the power to resist the corpse collector, so it has not been sucked into the coffin, nor has it returned to the Three Realms Spirit Palace." He paused slightly, as if he was also thinking, and then continued: "According to the old man's guess, he, or both of them, should have found the body of the dead not long ago, and took it away. ”

"Snatching the house?" Although Xue Yu had heard this term before, he had never encountered it, so he couldn't help asking.

"Well, take it. The primordial spirit is placed in the body of the newly deceased, prompting the resurrection of this person. It is also called borrowing a corpse to return the soul. Song Henian nodded slightly, and said: "However, the concentration of ordinary people is weak, unless the twelve spirit palaces of the human world are not accepted, or they are trapped by some spells, once they die, their primordial gods will immediately fly back to the spirit palace, and it is difficult to become a netherworld." ”

"Elder Song, do you mean that guy who released the cold arrow, the netherworld that took away the house is not from the human world, but from the other two worlds?"

"Yes, at the moment, the Demon Netherworld is more likely. ”

"Demon Realm?"

"Yes. The Demon Realm should be in collusion with White Deer City. ”

Everyone, especially Yang Ao, was even more surprised. Unexpectedly, White Deer City was entangled with many people to invade Garan this time, and with the help of the Demon Realm, he added a little worry to his heart.

Although he was not afraid of the many people on the other side - with the power of the "Dragon and Snake Double Kill", and the two elders of Songshi fought side by side with the same enemy, more than 100 Ding Jia and more than 10 brocade masters were killed just now. However, for the demon world, firstly, there is occasional contact, little is understood, and secondly, it acts treacherously and cruelly, and if it is encountered in the next process, it will add more difficulty and trouble.

"Then we can't open these coffins now?" Xue Yu pointed with a folding fan.

The twelve black coffins were quietly huddled in a pile, horizontal and vertical, looking terrifying.

"If we don't open, our opponents will become stronger. Song Henian insisted on his opinion, but he didn't seem as excited as he had just now.

"Grandma's, open!" Shi Zhongyue became excited at this moment, burst into a foul mouth, snorted twice, spat a few mouthfuls of foam into his palm, and was about to do it.

"Slow!" Song Henian raised his eyebrows, raised his hand to stop him, and said: "You can't open the coffin at will, there must be an order!"

"Huh?" everyone was confused by this sentence, "In what order?"

I saw Song Henian come forward, glanced at the black coffin, pointed to the southernmost one in it, and said: "Start here, then the east one, and then the west ......."

Time was pressing, and it was impossible to ask in detail, so everyone stepped forward to open the coffin according to Song Lao's instructions.

The two elders of Songshi stood at both ends of the first coffin, and with both hands, they pushed the coffin lid open!

Although the lid of the coffin is heavy, it is not nailed, so it is not difficult to open.

Just listening to the sound of "boom", a large puff of green smoke suddenly rose from the black lacquered coffin, which also crackled and flickered with sparks, and at the same time a strong whirlwind arose.

The puff of green smoke whirled in the whirlwind, and in an instant it had already flown into the night sky and disappeared without a trace.

"Don't stop!" roared the Pine Crane, whose beard fluttered wildly, and his clothes fluttered.

Immediately afterwards, Yang Ao and Xue Yu had already hurried to the southernmost coffin in the east, drawing a gourd in the same way, and working together to push the coffin lid open.

The situation was similar to the first puff, a whirlwind of green smoke like crows, which rose violently from the coffin and dissipated into the boundless night sky.

Then, according to Song Henian's instructions, everyone pushed open the covers of all the black lacquered coffins one after another. But, strange to say, some of the coffins had a very thick and intense eruption of smoke like a fish crowded with fishing nets, but there were also a puff or two, and the smoke was relatively thin.

"This smoke...... How can there be a strong ...... Is there a light?"

Continuously pushing the heavy coffin lid, Shi Zhongyue couldn't help but be a little out of breath, and Xue Yu's face was slightly red, but everyone was a little nervous. After all, this kind of thing is not often encountered when pushing the coffin board.

"These coffins are arranged in the way of Qimen Dunjia, corresponding to the twelve spirit palaces of the human world, that is, the twelve zodiac signs. The smoke is thick and there are more deceased people in this zodiac, and there are fewer light ones. ”

"Oh......" the others understood.

But, how do you know so much?

But seeing that Song Henian kept his hands and feet, he quickly checked all the twelve coffins according to the original order of opening the coffin, and at the same time directly reached out and took out twelve bronze medals from the coffin that were yellow and clear, half the size of a palm, and took them into his pocket after looking at them. I saw that those bronze medals were engraved with various symbols and earthly branch characters, and a few red lines were entwined.

"What is this?"

"Spiritualist cards and spirit bindings. ”

Although Song Henian is fat, kind and kind-eyed, and looks no bit majestic and burly, but now Yang Ao and the others seem to be shocking, full of the light of a great god. Xue Yu finally couldn't help but ask, "Elder Song, how do you know these things?"

"Ho ho," the long-bearded old man raised his eyebrows and smiled, and replied with a mysterious face, "This is for Lord Ling Zun." ”

"Huh, my father?"

"Hmm...... Don't think about it now, hurry up and settle Uncle Zhang, hurry!"

Song Henian waved his fat palm and signaled to hurry up.

Everyone here, of course, excluding Yang Ruoqing, who was stunned and disgraced throughout the whole process, was about to lift one of the coffins, but they heard the screams of mules and horses under the city tower, as if they were disturbed by something.

Yang Ao hurriedly put down the heavy coffin, and rushed to the battlements to look down, and the others also surrounded him.

This doesn't matter, everyone is scalp numb!

I saw that at the end of the long street, the mules and horses that had gathered in one place shook their heads and hooves, some snorted, and some neighed.

If it was just the mules and horses that were alarmed, what was even more incredible was that Uncle Zhang, who had been hit by several arrows in his body and was already exhausted, actually stood up and floated towards the city gate!

The reason why "floating" instead of "walking" is because Zhang Bo's head and arms are still drooping, shaking weakly, and his back is also stiff, not like a resurrection. The legs, in particular, did not move back and forth, but were suspended in the air, about a few feet above the ground!

The feathered arrows that were shot at the body had also been plucked out or broken.

What the hell is going on with this sudden and strange scene?!

Could it be that Uncle Zhang was taken a fancy by the ghost who released the cold arrow, and borrowed the corpse to return the soul? But no! If Uncle Zhang was taken away by the primordial god of the demon world, he should have come back to life! Besides, his feet should also touch the ground, and he can't float like this!

Seeing this, Yang Ao and the others couldn't think about the reason, so they immediately pulled the little sister and rushed down the city tower. However, just turned around, Xue Yu let out an "ah" and stopped his pace with an exclamation!

"What?" the others blurted out in a daze.

Xue Yu seemed to have seen a ghost, and his face was full of consternation. For he felt a hand grab him, and at the same time a very familiar voice sounded in his ears:

"Come with me!"

"Who?!" Xue Yu's first reaction was to raise the folding fan to fight back, but he immediately stopped when he heard the second sound.

"Yan'er, come with me!"

The voice of a middle-aged man, deep, rich, powerful, and at the same time full of love.

Father? Father!!

But why can't I see you?

His arm was pulled again, and his father's voice was unmistakable: "Come with me, let's get out of the city quickly!"

The second elder Songshi also seemed to hear the sound in the air, and he was shocked at first, but after hearing it twice, he immediately understood, raised his hand to the place where the voice sounded, and said in unison: "The head is above!"

This time it was Yang Ao's brother and sister's turn to go crazy. Why are you people babbling and talking at a cloud of transparent air? But in a blink of an eye, Yang Ao understood that the other party should be the head of the Xue family, and now he was using the stealth method to secretly pull Xue Yu's arm.

"Dad!" Xue Yu raised his hand and grabbed the air beside him. Indeed, although he couldn't see the other party, he really touched a person in his hand, it was his father, Xue Xuchun!

"Don't say anything!

The five of them followed the invisible Xue Xuchun and quickly moved to the city. There, Uncle Zhang had already "floated" out of the city gate hole. Only then did everyone realize that someone had also disappeared and carried Uncle Zhang's corpse. And because those mules and horses do not have human nature, they are not subject to the effect of stealth techniques, and they are naturally alarmed when they see someone coming.

said that it was too late, that time was fast, Yang Xue and the others immediately turned over their horses, raised their leather whips, and followed out of the city gate.

About half a mile away, entering a forest, the pace in front of them slowed down, Xue Xuchun and another subordinate received the stealth method, revealing their faces.

- "Daddy!" "Bamboo Swordsman!"

- "Master!" "Brother Bamboo!"

When Xue, Song, and Shi saw each other, they were all overjoyed, rejoicing, and calling each other.

Of the two people opposite, one of them is eight feet tall, with a face like a crown of jade, and his instrument is lofty, but it is Xue Xuchun!
