Like a fish out of water.
The eyes of the round-faced officer were struggling in their sockets.
He heard the sound of rain outside the corridor getting quieter, as if the whole rain was just to water a pool of mud; he saw the strong wind blowing the light and shadow, entangling the shadows of the people in the field.
What he heard in his ears and what he saw before his eyes turned into fear, biting at his heart.
But there is nothing you can do.
At this moment, this situation.
The only thing that can move around him is a pair of eyes.
He could only shake his eyes as hard as he could, searching in vain for every shadow and every strange sound with his frightened gaze.
…
Two or three seconds are excruciatingly long.
The back of the head.
"Crunch."
That was the sound of the door being pushed open.
"Da da."
This is the sound of footsteps approaching.
His pupils tightened and he almost stopped breathing.
what?
Zhou Huai?
He tried his best to turn his eyes and look away.
But soon.
A pale human face came into view.
It's Zhou Huai.
Just as he was about to let go of his breath, it was clenched in his windpipe again.
This face is so strange.
The eye sockets tried to be as round as they could; tiny scales, like fungi after the rain, drilled out of the skin one by one; the edges of the cheeks split open, revealing the dark red flesh and blood underneath, slowly closing in the moist air; There seemed to be something wrapped in the mouth, making some "gurgling" sounds, getting louder and louder... Finally, with a "wow", a mouthful of fishy saliva dripped all over his chin.
Light and shadow shake.
A pool of dark red mud vomited out, covering the officer's head and face.
…………
The round-faced yamen servant's twitching gradually stopped.
Just like a fish out of water, struggling in vain to no avail, finally no longer alive.
The dark red sludge also exited from the eyes, ears, mouth and nose of the corpse, and squirmed (harmoniously) back into the belly of Zhou Huai or the ghost.
It let out a contented moan.
He waved his hand.
More mud "crawled" from the courtyard into the corridor, dragging the bodies drained of essence and blood into the mud pool.
It's on its way to feast on its next prey.
Look up.
Suddenly he froze.
On the cornice of the wing opposite.
In the drizzle.
A slender figure stood quietly.
The rain slid down the ghost's face, making its outline even more ferocious and cold.
The red dress flew wildly against the wind and rain, like a brilliant fire.
It's Yu Mei.
…
Humans and monsters.
Across the stormy court, they faced each other in silence.
No words, no need for words.
only……
"incite!"
A dense abnormal sound suddenly erupted.
The mud and water in the entire courtyard trembled together, along with the wind and rain in the courtyard. In a moment, a huge wave of mud rose from the ground, transformed into various shapes of swords, guns, swords and halberds in the air, and flew towards Yu Mei to strangle and kill.
It's coming menacingly.
It seems that the eyebrows on the eaves and the wing under the feet will be smashed to pieces.
To this.
Just like last night.
Yu Mei only replied.
"Edict."
The sound of wind, rain, and mud waves suddenly disappeared.
Black and fine lightning traveled in all directions. Wherever it passed, the sky was filled with wind and rain, and the mud waves stirred up suddenly stopped and turned into dry and cracked soil.
A moment.
The thunder disappeared.
The gentle breeze and drizzle return to the courtyard.
"Wow."
The raindrops slapped on the arched dry soil embryo, and the soil embryo collapsed with a "click" sound. In the dust, the ghost suddenly jumped out, abandoned his eyebrows, and the "delicious meals" in the corridor, and headed straight to the backyard.
There is an alley leading out of the backyard, and at the end of the alley is the waterway.
Zugui is a fish that turns into a demon. Naturally, there is no need to say anything about what it wants to do when it behaves like this.
…
Yu Mei seemed surprised that the ghost could still run around alive.
Seeing that the other party was about to escape from sight, he took action.
The hem of the skirt was flying, and people were flying out quietly and ghostly.
But what was faster than her movement was the short needle that shot out with her hand.
As thin as an ox's hair, it is swift and difficult to prevent.
It's the soul-fixing needle.
Zugui, or Zhou Huai, can escape into the backyard at a glance.
In the dim corridor, a cold light flashed away, and its running movements suddenly froze. Unprepared, its whole body fell out and rolled into the shallow water in the backyard.
It turned out that the stabilizing needle had just hit its foot.
But it is a monster after all, not an ordinary human being. His body is much stronger. Except for the leg that was hit by the needle, the rest of his body can still barely move.
It's just that the Dingpo needle penetrated too deep into the flesh, making it difficult to take it out, let alone time to take it out.
The red shadow flashed, and the eyebrows appeared on the ridge of the main house.
Zhou Huai's strange half-human, half-fish face showed a look of determination. He grabbed the leg that had been hit by the needle, and then twisted it hard, and actually tore off the entire leg.
Blood poured into the standing water.
Without thinking, it stood up and jumped towards the back door with only one leg.
However.
The cold light returns.
Another stabilizing needle comes quietly
Under the cover of the wind and rain in the backyard, the flying needle was too fast and too secretive. The ghost had almost no room to dodge, so he was shot by the determination needle again.
The movement of jumping on one leg immediately went out of shape, and it was carried by inertia and flew out. With a loud "bang", it smashed the wooden door of the backyard and rolled into the sewage flowing in front of the door.
Immediately afterwards, a red dress floated down.
Yu Mei opened the broken door panel, but there was only a broken leg lying in the sewage.
His eyes turned.
But in the alleyway where vines flourished, the ghosts turned their hands into feet, dragging their stumps and wading through the stagnant water, running like crazy.
Yu Mei raised his hand and waved.
The third soul-fixing needle shot out.
The demon has both legs and is unable to dodge. Now that he only has his hands, he cannot escape.
But it was also somewhat aware of the murderous intention behind it. It turned slightly to one side and passed the vital points of its body, but the Soul-Calming Needle also penetrated into its right elbow.
The body suddenly tilted and rolled into the vine bushes, twisting and smashing them into pieces.
But, here and now.
Yu Mei, who was chasing after him, was still at the entrance of the alley ten steps away, but the water channel was at the end of the alley five steps away.
"Click."
It was the sound of broken bones.
"Bah."
It was the sound of blood splattering.
Zu Gui casually threw down his severed arm and suddenly popped out of the vine bush with his remaining arm.
The palms of his hands landed firmly on the bluestone. With one more jump, he could fall into the water and escape to the sky.
But the mana has not yet been obtained.
The fourth soul-fixing needle, like a gangrene attached to the bone, crossed the alley, passed through the vines, and quietly sank into its remaining limbs.
Zu Gui finally froze completely and fell one step away from the water.
So far?
No.
I saw it struggling to raise its head.
"Crack" sound.
The head was connected to the neck, and the neck was connected to a bloody fish body, and it actually came out of the chest. With the weird posture of a human head and a fish body, it was about to fall into the water after passing this step, and then escape and ascend to heaven.
pity.
A calm order came from behind the curtain of rain.
"I obey Madam Linshui to be as urgent as the law."
On the seemingly empty water, a fishing net suddenly appeared, and it tightened suddenly, trapping the confused ghost into it, and then flew it back with it, and fell into the messy alley again. He fell at Yu Mei's feet.
…
The alley is cramped.
The soft breeze and drizzle poured in, and it actually seemed a bit sharp.
Humans and monsters.
The two sides looked at each other, still speechless.
Yu Mei just drew his sword and swung it.
"Qiang!"
At the critical moment, a long sword poked out from the side and sealed Yu Mei's blade.
Yu Mei immediately pulled away and stared at the visitor coldly.
Li Changan took a few big breaths, and then pinned Zu Gui to the ground with a sword, which was about to move.
Then he smiled at Yu Mei and said:
"Please keep the fish alive."
