Chapter 32 Human Skin Straw
"I'm sorry for bothering you senior brothers and sisters during this trip." In the Tianshi Mansion, Shen Ning bowed respectfully to the people in front of him, "After returning, in the future, if my senior brothers and sisters are asked to do anything, I would rather take the lead."
"What are you talking about, little junior brother? Senior sister has helped you so much since you were a child. Even when your clothes were torn when you were young, senior sister helped you sew them. What can I ask you to repay?" Yuan Weiyang, who is good at elixirs, hugged Shen Ning. on his shoulders, raised his chin with his fingers, and said in a soft voice, "If I really want to repay senior sister, I might as well come to senior sister's room tonight."
"Senior sister..." Shen Ning glanced at Yuan Weiyang. This senior sister did not know her age, but she had a graceful figure, skin like jade, and a delicate and charming appearance, like a 28-year-old young woman. Her beauty was touching.
"Weiyang, don't mess around." The most steady among the three is Senior Brother Lu who practices formations.
On the other hand, Senior Brother Wang looked at the two people playing around, picked up the pagoda in his hand, and said with a simple and honest smile, "I should be the one to thank Junior Brother Shen. This pagoda is exquisite. I begged Master for a long time, but he didn't agree to this trip." Lujiazhuang, thanks to the blessing of my junior brother, allows me to experience the formation laws contained in the exquisite pagoda."
"Senior Brother Wang, you're welcome. The monster in Lujiazhuang has already killed two Qingyi Si Xingxu. Master gave us the magic weapon in the hope that nothing will happen to us." Shen Ning walked in front of everyone and turned around and said, "We still need to wait. Be extremely careful, not to accomplish all the work of exterminating demons, but to bring back Suzaku."
The three of them nodded one after another and left Shenjing City towards Lujiazhuang.
Lujiazhuang is located a hundred miles away from Shenjing City. With the compactness of the land and the fact that there were no evil obstacles along the way, the four of them arrived at Lujiazhuang in just half a stick of incense.
The mist lay on the ground and slowly squirmed.
The ground is slippery, and a blue-clad hooded scarecrow is standing at the edge of the field. His hands are tied to the frame and spread out stiffly, with his back turned motionless to the road. Scarecrows like this are all over the field. .
A thin figure shuttled across the fields, carefully looking at the scarecrow in front of him.
It turns out that the scarecrow was not made of straw, but a living person who had been skinned, disemboweled, tongued out, and nailed to a wooden frame.
The entire face is covered with dark red muscles, two eyeballs have fallen out, and are connected by blood vessels. They are left and right mute in the wind, hitting the exposed bridge of the nose and scratched face.
On the road between the fields, a few figures walked out of the diffuse mist. It was Shen Ning and others who were coming.
Seeing someone coming, the thin figure who was still sizing up the scarecrow quickly waved his hand, "Come here, come here."
Shen Ning glanced at the scarecrow along the way, frowned slightly, looked at the thin figure and asked: "Yanwu, have all the people in Lujiazhuang been skinned and made grass?"
Gu Yanwu nodded, "You informed me of the monster in Lujiazhuang last night, and I came here in the middle of the night. From a distance, I felt that the place was full of resentment, and I didn't dare to set foot easily, so I sprinkled a few beans and asked the bean people to help me explore. As soon as I entered When I came to the village, I saw the fields full of scarecrows.”
Gu Yanwu's skill at spreading beans was quite strange, so Shen Ning notified him early to rush to Lujiazhuang to be a helper.
After briefly introducing Gu Yanwu to everyone, and looking at the countless human skin straws in the field, Lu Ya took a deep breath, took out a talisman from his arms, pinched it with his fingertips, and exhaled as he breathed out. A raging fire swept across the scarecrow in the field like an overwhelming force.
Countless ghosts floated out of the scarecrow's body, struggling in the fire, and the heart-rending screams resounded throughout Lujiazhuang.
Yuan Weiyang turned away, feeling unbearable, but he did not object to Lu Ya's actions. The resentment of the Lujiazhuang villagers who died tragically may turn into evil spirits and cause trouble in the future.
Leaving the field, everyone walked towards the Lujiazhuang house.
Lujiazhuang is a village, but most of them do not make a living by farming. With the advantage of being surrounded by mountains and forests, they rely on hunting to earn some idle money. They can still survive in these troubled times, but sudden changes have destroyed their lives. It's just their original life.
"There are no living people." Gu Yanwu cast out the beans and opened the doors of each room to check.
Thinking about it, the current Lujiazhuang is extremely evil. If there are still people alive, Shen Ning and the others will be worried.
Where should the evil spirits in Lujiazhuang be now, and what is the situation like Zi Fulingyue and the others?
Shen Ning looked thoughtful and secretly guessed in her heart, if Zi Fulingyue and the others came to Lujiazhuang and found no evil spirits, where would they go?
Shen Ning's eyes suddenly lit up, the mountain forest where people from Lujiazhuang often hunted!
Just when he was about to tell Gu Yanwu and others this idea, a gust of cool wind blew by, and Lu Ya suddenly shouted, "Confinement Talisman, come out!" At the same time, a talisman shot out from his hand and hit him. The earth wall behind everyone.
A light blue light shone from the earthen wall, and a little girl with a blue and transparent body shattered the rope-forming talisman and emerged from the wall, showing a terrifying smile to everyone.
Before anyone could come forward, her figure quickly passed through another wall, and with a shrill laugh like a silver bell, she wandered freely through the houses in Lujiazhuang.
"Chase!"
No one hesitated at all. This strange girl was probably the breakthrough in the current situation in Lujiazhuang, and she must not be allowed to escape.
The girl's speed was extremely fast. After a while, she had left the area of Lujiazhuang and entered a mountain forest.
Everyone followed, and the thin mist suddenly thickened. Yuan Weiyang took out a green jade bottle, poured out a few pills and distributed them to everyone.
After taking the elixir, everyone no longer feared the poisonous mist and walked deeper into the dense forest.
As time went by, I could clearly feel that the surrounding temperature had dropped in vain, the fog was too thick, and the girl disappeared the moment she got into the forest.
"Senior Brother Wang, is there any way to get rid of the fog here?"
Although Shen Ning is not the one with the highest level of cultivation among everyone, there is no doubt that he is the most powerful one in terms of practicing magic, and he naturally plays the role of the backbone.
Feeling the fog flowing like clear water, Wang Yan pondered for a moment, "These fogs are a bit tricky. It's impossible to get rid of them all. I can make a simple magic circle. There will be no fog within ten feet of us." Harassment will take some time."
Shen Ning immediately arranged: "We will protect the law for you. Don't act rashly before Senior Brother Wang makes the formation."
As if he sensed the intentions of Shen Ning and others, the little girl's weird silver bell-like laughter sounded in the forest again, and a transparent blue figure loomed in the mist, but Lu Ya used the fire charm to drive them away.
Wang Yan sat on the ground, took out a few copper coins and put them in a porcelain bowl. He chanted the magic formula in his mouth. When the copper coins emitted a golden light, he threw them in the air. The coins fell according to the twelve hexagrams. Tens of people appeared in front of him. The fog within ten feet immediately dissipated, revealing the appearance of mountains and forests.
There were towering trees with thick trunks and emerald green leaves hanging with crystal drops of water. Shen Ning was walking on the moist and clean soil. He didn't know why he always felt that something was wrong, and he felt an inexplicable uneasiness in his heart.
