The mysterious footprints made the already thrilling dense forest become more simple and confusing. For safety reasons, Yu Huo said: "We will take shifts, you will keep watch for half the night, and I will keep watch for the rest of the night. How about it?"
"I'm not sleepy, you go to bed first."
Liu Wusheng's words were obviously an excuse. It was not so much that he was not sleepy, but that he was afraid that if he fell asleep, something unclean would come to his door. Therefore, he would rather not sleep than forcefully hold on.
"Then I'm going to bed,"
Yu Huo knew she couldn't resist him, and besides, she was really tired after running all the way, so she didn't bother with him, lit a cigarette, got into the thatched hut, and found a place to lie down and fall asleep.
I don't know how long I slept for, but Yu Huo woke up from his sleep. Rather than waking up, he was woken up by the strong smell of blood.
When Yu Huo woke up, his eyes were pitch black, and his eyes were bleary, so he couldn't see clearly what happened, but in front of Yu Huo, there were countless pairs of green eyes staring at him.
Under the night, it was already dark, and the alert Yu Huo climbed up carefully. He rubbed his eyes with his right hand, while his left and right hands had already reached into the bag on his waist.
Although he didn't know what was in front of him, the smell of blood made Yu Huo feel uneasy. Plus he didn't see Liu Wusheng who was watching the night, maybe something bad happened to him at this time.
If Yu Huo wants to break through the siege on his own, it is obviously unrealistic to break through forcefully, and outsmarting him is the only chance to survive.
But how do you outsmart a hungry beast?
Before I had time to think, those beasts that were eyeing and salivating, bared their teeth and made a squeaking sound. It was obvious that the sound conveyed was, on the one hand, a warning to the prey and a declaration of their sovereignty. Another possibility was that it was... Tell your companions to attack in groups.
Facing such a critical moment, Yu Huo adjusted his mentality and tried his best to calm down. What he had to face now was not a jackal, a tiger, or a leopard, but just a few cats. Even if he became a spirit, it was just a cat after all, so why make a fuss about it.
Yu Huo gathered enough courage and stood up to light a cigarette, hoping that the fireworks would scare these little elves deep in the forest.
Unexpectedly, before the remaining fire could scare away these hungry beasts, Liu Wusheng's voice came out from a tree not far away, and he shouted sternly: "Hurry up! Go higher. Hide everywhere, the higher the better.”
Hearing Liu Wusheng's voice, Yu Huo's heart was agitated, and he cursed angrily: "You're not dead yet, where are you going to hide?"
"Get up the tree, get up the tree quickly!"
"Why did you go there so early?"
He saw those beasts with green eyes closing in on him step by step, encircling him and hunting him.
It seemed that these guys had really become spirits and actually learned how to fight as a team. Yu Huo frowned, knowing that these little guys should not be underestimated.
Those guys were getting closer and closer. In the critical moment, Yu Huo had no choice but to step forward in a few steps, then leap up. The moment he landed, he just happened to hug a big one that was approaching. The tree, without hesitation, climbed up with all its might.
When I lowered my head and looked again, I realized that those green-eyed guys were none other than the yellow weasels who like to fart, which are often called yellow-skinned ones.
Looking around again, the dense yellow skins were gathering here, and Yu Huo calmed down, and then looked at Liu Wusheng, who was also lying motionless on the tree, couldn't help but smile, and said: "This thatched house , shouldn’t it be Huang Pizi’s home?”
"I can't see it wrong. We... accidentally broke into someone else's lair."
Liu Wusheng was sure that this was Huang Pizi's hiding place. Tens of thousands of yellow weasels gathered here, and the purpose was naturally to drive away humans, and this was not a place where humans should come.
"Then what should we do now? We can't stay in this tree forever, right?"
Liu Wusheng was concerned about his own safety after all. How to get rid of the siege of these weasels was an urgent problem that needed to be solved, and Yu Huo didn't know the key to it.
At present, the only way to resolve the grudges between man and nature is to find a way to get these weasels to disperse.
"Catching corpses and sending souls away is your specialty. Dealing with a few beasts should not be a problem for you, right?"
Yu Huo deliberately provoked the generals so that Liu Wusheng would contribute money and effort, but he didn't want Liu Wusheng to be greedy for life and afraid of death, so he made excuses and said: "I have my own way of dealing with dead people, but I really don't want to deal with these lifeless living creatures." They can't help it, and besides, I have trypophobia. When I see these dense things, I start to feel dizzy... Oops... I feel dizzy."
Faced with Liu Wusheng's hypocrisy, Yu Huo didn't want to waste any more words with him, and instead said, "These living creatures are evil inside and out."
Seeing the mystery hidden in Yu Huo's words, Liu Wusheng was a little impatient, thinking that Yu Huo was pretending to be serious, and said with disdain: "Speak quickly if you have something to say, and let go of farts if you have anything to say. In front of me, Zhuge Liang burned incense and played the piano. It’s useless.”
"If you think about it carefully, if there wasn't someone behind the scenes and such a large number of weasels gathered here, you wouldn't really think that these beasts have become sperm, right?"
What Yu Huo said was true. Putting science aside, so many weasels seemed to be possessed by a demon. They all spontaneously rushed to this shabby thatched hut, which was completely contrary to common sense.
Thinking of this, Liu Wusheng put down his face of greed for life and fear of death, and said seriously: "In that case, let me personally take action and take off this shameless mask."
After saying that, Liu Wusheng stood up and stood on the branch of the tree. After making a seal with his hands, he took out the soul-calling flag from his backpack. He coughed a few times and pretended to be ready for a big fight.
After Liu Wusheng pretended to be cool, he muttered some incantations, and saw those restless yellow-skinned men slowly starting to walk in the direction of the soul-calling flag, and those grinning guys had violent and restless eyes just now, Became a lot docile.
Liu Wusheng tried to slide down slowly from the tree, but the Soul-Calling Flag did not dare to stop. He swayed tentatively a few times, but saw those who became docile and followed the Soul-Calling Flag, swinging from side to side.
Seeing that this method was effective, Liu Wusheng was ecstatic, and then he fell from the tree. Slowly...slowly..., a magical scene happened. Tens of thousands of yellow leather pieces were in Liu Wusheng's hands. Under the guidance of the soul-calling flags, they dispersed one by one in an orderly manner.
The effectiveness of Liu Wusheng's methods is related to the fact that he comes from the corpse exorcism sect. Although the corpse exorcists are driving zombies, they are different from ordinary walking corpses. These walking corpses controlled by the corpse exorcists are naturally They obey the orders of the corpse chasers and believe that the corpse chasers are the hosts of their souls, that is, the masters of their souls.
These walking zombies obey the orders of the zombie exorcists, which is the key point of this soul-calling bell. The zombie exorcists have a specific bell ringing technique, so that these walking zombies can be controlled obediently by others.
Although Liu Wusheng has been expelled from the school, he often uses the techniques of the corpse exorcism sect to deceive and deceive, and he has also gained the reputation of "Liu Banxian" in Jianghai, which not only made him famous for a while, but also made him live a human model. A doggy life.
It's a pity that such good times don't last long. The appearance of Yu Huo completely disrupted his plan of deception and abduction. In a battle of wits, he lost completely. With his reputation ruined, he had to take risks and finally stole the Underworld Lantern. , and then he had the heroic feat of bravely entering the abandoned nest and not hesitate to sacrifice.
It's not that enemies don't get together. Rather than saying that Yu Huo and Liu Wusheng are rivals who are extremely jealous when they meet enemies, it's better to say that they are a pair of enemies who fall in love and kill each other.
The crisis was over, it could be said that it was a false alarm. Liu Wusheng was about to show off his abilities, but he didn't want to hear a strange voice from behind, which frightened the two of them and made them pale in fright.
When he turned around to look, the person who spoke was not a human being, but a small yellow weasel. The hair around its body was a bit messy, and it looked like it had experienced a lot of wind and frost.
Seeing this beast talking, the two of them were so frightened that they instinctively took a few steps back.
In a panic, Yu Huo glanced at Liu Wusheng, who also did not recover, and then hesitantly said: "You...are you a human or a ghost?"
"Does it matter whether you are a human or a ghost? You two are no longer human, so why are you wearing colored glasses and looking at me coldly?"
Not only could the yellow weasel speak, but he also knew the details of Yu Huo and Liu Wusheng, which made Yu Huo quite wary of them. He asked tentatively: "So, are you... an enemy or a friend?"
"It's easy to say that if you share the same goals, you will naturally become a friend. If you don't agree with others, you will naturally become an enemy."
The weasel is enigmatic and his words are impeccable. This makes people completely incomprehensible, and even more difficult to figure out what this person wants to do. He does not possess people, but he insists on possessing the weasel. What is his intention?
"In this case, let's make a price and see how we can clear the way."
Yu Huo knew that this yellow-skinned man was blocking the way, and it was nothing more than repaying a favor for a favor, and avenging a grudge. As for whether it was repaying a favor or taking revenge, it all depended on what the yellow-skinned man was blocking the way for.
Seeing that Yu Huo had made his words clear and frank, the man possessed by Weasel naturally stopped beating around the bush. Instead, he pointed at the ring in Yu Huo's hand and said, "You have the right to keep what you have in your hand." The toll is paid, I can let you pass."
Facing this guy's unreasonable request, Liu Wusheng on the side was more anxious than Yu Huo, because he knew the origin of this ring. If it fell into the hands of a thief, especially if it fell into the hands of an ignorant thief, then the ring would be Fate, the consequences are unimaginable.
Wanting Yu Huo to hand over such a vital thing, Liu Wusheng was the first to refuse and said angrily: "You are talking nonsense, do you know what this thing is? You are not a corpse-sewer, holding it is just a decoration."
"I know, but I just like this kind of vain decoration."
"you……!"
For the first time, Liu Wusheng was half-infuriated by a talking weasel, but he had no choice but to grit his teeth and glare at the other person.
"As the saying goes, it's easy to talk without thinking. Obviously, we are not friends, but enemies."
With that said, the guy turned around and prepared to leave, but the weasels that had been scattered in all directions were gathering here in an orderly manner, with an attitude of not giving up until they achieved their goal.
From this point of view, these yellow men are just puppets controlled by the people behind the scenes. The people behind the scenes are obviously here for the ring in Yu Huo's hand. As for who the people behind the scenes are, it is naturally determined. This is a person who follows the rules of the 'Four Doors and Eight Dharmas'.
"Wait!"
As soon as Yu Huo let go, the talking yellow man suddenly stopped, and the tens of thousands of yellow weasels surrounding him stopped in place, with no intention of moving forward.
"What? Mr. Yu figured it out."
Seeing Yu Huo about to take off the ring in his hand, Liu Wusheng, who was extremely anxious, looked puzzled. He leaned close to Yu Huo's ear and whispered: "You are crazy. This is the life gate of your corpse-stitching lineage. You As a sect leader, how can I personally destroy the sect’s most precious treasure?”
Liu Wusheng was anxious to get angry, which made people think that he was the leader of the corpse-stitching lineage. On the contrary, Yu Huo was as calm as water, which made people a little scared when he saw it. He said in an understatement: "The skin I have now is not flesh and blood." The body without the blood of Sewing Corpse means that the underworld ring cannot be activated, and the unactivated underworld ring is just a waste. It may not be safe to leave it on the body. If this person intends to take it, he will naturally keep it carefully. , finding another way may be another way to preserve it.”
"you……!"
Yu Huo's high-sounding reasons made Liu Wusheng furious, but unable to refute, he could only swallow his anger and let Yu Huo take off the ring in his hand.
