I held the rag in my hands shivering and looked at Old Yu lying unconscious in the barrel. I didn't know what to do for a moment...
If he were a human being, he would probably die immediately if his tongue was severed. The reason why Old Yutou can survive until now is because he is essentially a demon, but I know that if I don't think of a way to save him, he will definitely die.
Can't last long.
I have no idea what will happen to him if his body dies...
Ye Qing floated to my side and said:
"Don't worry, Lao Yutou has hundreds of years of experience, so it won't be so easy... Let's not worry about who did this now, but we must find a way to save him!"
"But...but how to save me? Master is not here either..."
Ye Qing hesitated for a moment and said:
"I know there is a Granny Gu in Jiangcheng. She may be able to save Lao Yutou..."
"But Lao Yutou... is a monster. Can Granny Gu be saved?"
"She is not an ordinary person, she is just..."
"Just what?!"
"If you want her to save people, you have to pay the same price..." Ye Qing's voice was a little low, as if he didn't want me to hear the next few words.
But now my mind is full of Lao Yutou, and I can’t care about that much at all.
"No matter what the cost, I will find a way to save Lao Yutou! Let's go!"
Ye Qing stopped me,
"Not now. She only meets people at night. We have to wait until dark before looking for her."
After hearing what she said, I had no choice but to give up and spent the whole afternoon in uneasiness.
late at night…
Under the guidance of Ye Qing, I took the unconscious Old Yutou to a remote and deep street. I took a look along the narrow street and found that there were some small shops on both sides of the street.
Maybe it was too late. Almost all the shops had their doors and windows closed and were lifeless. The whole street gave people an indescribable sense of depression.
There was only a faint light coming from the deepest part of the street, which looked erratic and somewhat unreal.
"let's go."
Ye Qing said something and floated towards the light.
I carried Lao Yu's head and followed her closely. As I got closer and closer to the light, I suddenly smelled a strange smell, like the smell of Chinese medicine, but not exactly...
A few minutes later, we came to a store. I looked up and saw that it was really a Chinese medicine store.
I was about to walk in, but Ye Qing stopped me,
"Grandma Gu is not that easy to meet. You have to rely on yourself for all this..."
I looked at her suspiciously,
"What's the meaning?"
Ye Qing remained silent and turned into a wisp of black air and got into the gloomy wooden box in my backpack.
I paused for a moment and walked to the door. Just as I was about to knock on the door, I suddenly heard a burst of female laughter coming from the house. It was cold and hollow, and it sounded like more than one woman...
I hesitated for a moment, then knocked on the store door.
"when…"
What I didn't expect was that as soon as I knocked, the door was gently opened, and at the same time, the laughter of the women in the room stopped abruptly.
"The door is unlocked?"
I muttered in a low voice and pushed the door open gently. A strong smell of Chinese medicine suddenly penetrated my nose. Fortunately, I was used to the smell of traditional Chinese medicine, otherwise I would really not be used to it.
"anyone there?"
I shouted softly, but no one answered after waiting for a long time. I couldn't care so much, so I walked in with Lao Yu's head on my back.
I placed Lao Yutou on a wooden chair in front of the door, and then began to look at the entire store carefully. It was just like an ordinary Chinese medicine store, except for the wooden counter and the herbs on display, there was almost nothing special about it.
"Where are the people?"
I muttered in my mind, I had clearly heard a woman laughing before, but why was there no one there now?
"Could it be..."
A sound of "Bang!" suddenly came from behind me. I hurriedly looked back and found that the store door that was open before had closed by itself.
Before I had time to react, the lights in the Chinese medicine store went out with a "swish", and the room was instantly swallowed up by darkness. My heart sank, and I hurriedly took a few steps back based on my memory and came to the wooden chair where Lao Yu was sitting, fully alert.
After waiting for a while, nothing happened, but I didn't dare to relax at all. I couldn't help but announce my door and whispered:
"Lin Yu, Huo Qiansuan's disciple, came to meet Granny Gu!"
"hehe…"
"hey-hey…"
Several women's laughter came from the darkness, which was a bit colder than what I heard before...
Just when I was nervous, I suddenly felt my shoulders sink, as if something was lying on my shoulders!
I hurriedly threw the cinnabar and flicked it behind me. There was a "puff" sound, my body was obviously light, and the thing fell next to my feet. At the same time, it gave off a pungent burning smell.
I looked down, but before I could see what it was, my shoulders sank again. I turned slightly sideways, only to see a face slowly peeking out from my shoulders, looking straight at me.
"hehe…"
It grinned, and I met its eyes, and a bone-deep chill instantly penetrated my body, because that was not a face of a living person, but that of a paper mannequin with blush on it.
Face!
Surprised, I immediately made a magic weapon with one hand and hit the paper man with all my strength. The paper man jumped slightly and turned over and floated in the air...
"Creak, creak, creak"
It moved its stiff neck and looked down at me with a dead look on its face!
I frowned and found that the paper figure was as big as a living person. It was green, as if it was wearing a blue robe, and the locks of black hair hung stiffly on both sides of the face. It looked indescribably weird.
.
I realized that this paper man was not ordinary. He must have been supported by someone for a long time and developed spiritual intelligence. Now he is an evil spirit!
Thinking of this, I calmly grabbed a seven-inch copper nail and prepared to destroy it first, but I suddenly remembered that I was looking for help. The paper man in front of me was obviously the janitor boy raised by the owner of this place.
, if we take action rashly, will it...
Just as I was hesitating, the paper man tilted his body and swooped towards me straight up!
I felt cruel in my heart, and quickly turned sideways to avoid it. At the same time, I raised my hand and pierced the seven-inch copper nail into the back of the paper man, directly fixing it to the ground. The paper man's body twitched violently, and a wave after wave of
