Chapter 46 Resentment in Smoke
Paper wraps fire, fire wraps earth.
Yang fire soil and yin soil can drive away corpse poison.
The effect is similar to that of glutinous rice.
However, it can only be used urgently.
I reached out to grab the soil, and regardless of the remaining warmth on it, I slapped it on my face. I immediately felt a stinging pain, as if there were insects burrowing in it.
This sour feeling was even more unbearable than being scratched on the face just now.
I let out some low moans of pain, and Chen Meng quickly supported me and said, "Classmate Yang, you... what are you doing?"
"Exorcism poison."
"Corpse poison?"
I nodded, endured the pain, and applied a handful of mud again.
I have never forgotten my father's words.
It's okay if you don't touch corpse poison.
Once it is stained, it must be removed as soon as possible, otherwise it will penetrate into the blood and skin, and it will turn into rotten flesh at best, or turn into corpse at worst.
My method is actually a simple native method.
The wet soil on the tomb bag already contains yin energy. I can use my yang blood to start a fire to remove the yin energy and then apply it on my face. The effect will be the same as that of glutinous rice.
After holding on for nearly two minutes, I finally felt much better.
I stretched out my hand and grabbed the dirt off my face. There was already a lot of stench attached to it, which was traces of corpse poison, so I took care of it initially.
As for the scars on my face, there is nothing I can do about it.
I can only wait until I get back and let Uncle Yang use ghost medicine to help me solve it.
"Classmate Yang, the injury on your face is okay, right? Why don't we stop practicing..." Chen Meng said with a worried look on his face.
"It's okay, keep walking." I shook my head at her and glanced down at the monkey.
The corpse control talisman failed, and its body began to decay rapidly.
It's just right to be with these gravebags.
"All right."
Chen Meng saw that I was persistent and did not refute.
The sky was almost dark, and when I looked up I could see a dark dusk falling rapidly.
I led Chen Meng to speed up the pace. Fortunately, after crossing the tomb bag, our climbing path was much easier, which saved us some energy.
However, it also turned completely dark.
Chen Meng subconsciously held my arm, looked around nervously, and whispered: "Classmate Yang, why don't we go find other classmates to join us?"
"Don't be afraid."
I nodded and comforted him.
But my mind is not on her.
Instead, he looked around with all his concentration.
This guy Wang Li has even used the Corpse Control Talisman, and he has made it clear that he wants to fight me until death, so I have nothing to fear.
This is my first time to have a serious "fight" with my peers.
Before, in big cities, there were not many opportunities to show off.
Now, it's different.
"Something to interest me."
"Don't let me look down on you."
I was a little ready to move, and I was full of expectations.
But in the next two hours, apart from Chen Meng's whispers, there were no other emergencies.
The night was completely silent.
The moon above my head was obscured by a burst of dark clouds before I even saw it.
Some harsh insect sounds seemed to be right next to me.
"Classmate Yang, no, I...I'm afraid."
"Shall we stop and rest?"
Tired from the journey and the road ahead became difficult, Chen Meng took my hand and simply stood there and refused to walk.
I shook my head, thinking that this was not going to work.
We were only halfway up the mountain, and if we rested any longer, all kinds of snakes and insects would be out and about.
You can’t wait until dawn before moving forward, right?
I thought about it and planned to use the magic again to bring out a guiding light, which should make her less scared.
But at this moment, I suddenly saw a wisp of thick smoke floating not far away.
"Huh?"
"Why is there smoke?"
"Is someone setting a fire?"
Chen Meng also noticed this and looked around curiously.
Then she was stunned, as if she remembered something: "Wait a minute, that place seems... to be the blue team's route?"
"how do you know?"
I asked doubtfully.
"I memorized the route map in advance."
She whispered a little aggrievedly: "I should have gone with them..."
I was about to speak when I suddenly heard several frightened screams coming from the direction of the thick smoke, which sounded like thunder in the dark night.
Very abrupt!
"No, something happened!"
I realized something was wrong because I found that in that thick smoke, there was actually some rare resentment, soaring straight into the sky.
How could there be resentment in this remote corner of the mountain?
Where there is resentment, there are either people who died tragically, or there are still ghosts of grievances!
No matter what it is, it’s impossible!
"Yang, classmate Yang, did you hear that..." Chen Meng's hand on my arm became tighter and tighter, almost sticking to my body.
Those soft things kept rubbing my back as they trembled.
I didn't care so much, grabbed her hand and said: "Let's go, something happened to the blue team, let's rush over and take a look!"
"ah?"
"Wha, what?"
"I don't want it, don't..."
Chen Meng struggled a few times, but because I was afraid that her body would be very weak, I easily pulled her and quickly shuttled through the forest.
I have a very strong memory, and I know the method of dividing gold and fixing acupuncture points, so I have firmly memorized the direction of the smoke in my mind.
There are some roads that are difficult to walk, and my joints are not fully healed yet, so I can only move forward while resting.
When we rushed over, it was already half an hour later. Although the smoke was still there, it was not as thick as before and had begun to fade.
"call……"
Chen Meng kept panting and was so tired that he couldn't straighten his back. He pulled me and said, "Yang, classmate Yang, wait for me, I can't walk anymore..."
"Hey, do you hear me? Wait for me!"
Only then did I stop and look ahead, and found that where the thick smoke was coming from, there was an abandoned well, built up with cement.
It should be an old well that diverts water.
Because it was dark night and there was too much smoke, I could only vaguely see a few figures shivering.
I didn't rush forward and looked around. I found that the resentment was coming from the well mouth and that the thick smoke was man-made.
It seems that there is indeed some trouble.
"Walk."
I picked up Chen Meng and planned to go down and take a look.
"Wait a moment……"
"ah!"
As a result, at this moment, Chen Meng accidentally slipped and stepped on me. His weak body fell directly on top of me.
I didn't react in time, and there happened to be another slope below, and I suddenly felt bad.
But even if I could react, the force of inertia couldn't resist it. I could only hold Chen Meng and the two of them down together.
The ground was slippery and covered with weeds. Chen Meng screamed and shouted: "Ahhhhhh!"
