Wow wow wow...
The formation of the vortex is becoming more and more obvious, and the speed is getting faster and faster.
Yin Xiu stretched out his hand and pulled the white peacock behind him.
"I can handle it." White Peacock said angrily.
"I know."
Yin Xiu still pulled her behind him and looked at the old man.
"Is it coming to save you?"
"I deserve this."
The old man laughed loudly, "I have served King Lingquan all my life. Isn't it natural for him to come to save his children?"
"Then tell me, should I give your boss some face and let you go back?" Yin Xiu asked.
"It depends on you. If you offend the king, you have to pay the price to be forgiven." The old man smiled.
"I understand."
Boom!
As Yin Xiu exerted force on her wrist, the old man exhaled a breath and softened.
Yin Xiu picked him up like a rag bag and threw him into the whirlpool.
The corpse only floated on the vortex for a moment, and then was swallowed by the vortex and disappeared without a trace.
Under the water, the pair of golden lanterns emitted an even more dazzling light, just like the burning sun.
Bah!
The water surface broke open, and a huge black pillar appeared, holding the two golden lanterns.
Yin Xiu did not retreat, but just raised the torch in his hand to illuminate the front.
It was a black snake with layers of scales stacked together, making a harsh grinding sound when it moved.
This snake is probably several stories high. Although it is not as huge as the snakes seen in Changbai Mountain, its triangular head like a locomotive looks very oppressive and terrifying in the already narrow and cramped cave. Incomparable people.
Seeing this, the white peacock took back the little snake that had poked its head out of its sleeves at some point.
"Can you deal with it?" Yin Xiu asked her.
"Hey, you really want to ask me to deal with such a behemoth, do you?"
The white peacock's face turned pale, "Quickly use your invincible Maoshan technique to think of a solution!"
"I'm not saying hello." Yin Xiu picked her ears.
Bai Peacock blinked, thinking back to the past, and suddenly realized that Yin Xiu's name was not Ma Tianyou.
So she could only soften her body and whispered: "Brother..."
"Hmm."
Yin Xiu nodded with satisfaction and faced the big snake with his hands, his sleeves bulging.
"The sky and the earth are infinite, the universe borrows the law!"
A talisman dragon made of talisman paper connected back and forth flew out from his sleeve. When it passed Yin Xiu's fingertips, it was stained with a touch of dragon and tiger aura and soaked into the talisman gallbladder.
Bang bang bang bang!
A series of firelights and explosions, as if someone had set off a string of oversized firecrackers in the cave. The firelights and air waves made the white peacock want to close his eyes, but he did not want to miss the wonderful scene in front of him, so he could only squint his eyes and half-eyes. Look half-covered.
The big snake's body shook involuntarily due to the series of explosions, causing ripples in the water beneath it.
When fire and smoke filled the cave, Yin Xiu jumped up high and at the same time clenched his right hand in the void.
The famous sword Chaofeng burst into flames.
Yin Xiu waved his hand to mock the wind, causing the sound of breaking wind. At the same time, he also chopped off the giant snake's head and tore its body apart.
Black blood splashed out from the giant snake's body, and its corrupted scales and flesh splashed out together.
It was only then that the stench came from the shop, and Yin Xiucai suddenly realized that he was dealing with a corpse, and it had been dead for a long time!
He immediately sheathed his sword, but the flesh and blood on both sides of the separated snake seemed to suddenly become active and quickly gathered towards the middle.
The white peacock was scared to the point of weakness.
Because she saw Yin Xiu being "swallowed" by the big snake!
Maybe Yin Xiu struggled a little, so the big snake had a bulge in a certain part, but its body made a accumulated sound and finally suppressed the bulge.
The snake's body is originally a bait, like a flytrap that lures insects into flowers, until the insects are intoxicated.
The flowers that were originally in full bloom closed up and became a prison from which the insects could not escape.
White Peacock had seen this strange flower in the rainforest of Miao territory, and the locals called it a pig cage. Unexpectedly, Yin Xiu would now become a prisoner like those insects!
After moving its body a few more times, the big snake finally crawled towards the white peacock.
The white peacock felt as if his feet were filled with lead, and he couldn't escape even if he wanted to.
Not to mention that she doesn't have any magic weapon with her now. Even if she does, she probably won't be a match for this big monster.
So she could only watch helplessly as the big snake approached and opened its bloody mouth towards her.
At this moment, for some reason, the first thing Bai Peacock thought of was not the Miao village, nor the leader and sister Bai Fenghuang.
It was Yin Xiu's hand on her body in the sedan chair.
The two of them seemed to be dying together.
The big snake opened its mouth. Although the white peacock's eyes were filled with tears due to the stench, he still stared hard and put his hands into his skirt, ready to continue fighting in the snake's belly like the legendary warriors.
However, the snake just opened its mouth wide and did not take another step forward.
Just when the white peacock felt strange, he heard a tearing sound, and Yin Xiu walked out of the snake's mouth, holding a long and thick worm like a hemp rope in his hand.
She didn't know that this was the Gu insect from Changbai Mountain, and Yin Xiu had seen it on those white apes before.
He's not dead?
The white peacock was about to step forward and hug him, but was suddenly hit by the breath coming from Yin Xiu. He turned his head and started spitting out acid water.
"Is it so disgusting?"
Yin Xiu smelled her sleeve and almost spit out her breakfast.
Without hesitation, he threw the long-dead Gu insect on the ground and plunged into the pool. After a while, he got up from the pool and smoothed his hair.
"Does it still stink?"
Yin Xiu stretched out his hand.
The white peacock sniffed it in disgust, and finally turned his face away.
"..."
It is said that after some corpses have been left dead in a house for a week, the smell can be so bad that they have to replace all the furniture and floors in the house.
So the reaction of the white peacock seems to be reasonable.
Because according to Yin Xiu's estimation, the giant snake must have been dead for several years. As for why it did not rot and turn into mud or bones, it was entirely because of the role of Gu insects in it.
"What about here?"
Yin Xiu was still unwilling to give in and pointed to the shoulder.
Although he was reluctant, the white peacock still came closer and sniffed Yin Xiu's shoulders and neck with his nose.
She was not tall and only reached Yin Xiu's shoulders, so she put a hand on his shoulders and stood on tiptoe to smell.
"This place seems a little dirty, can I help you blow it away?" said the white peacock.
"Okay, please."
Yin Xiu held her waist smoothly, and then felt warm air blowing on her neck.
"What are you doing?"
A rather chilling question came. The white peacock turned around and found that Ma Xiaoyu had entered the cave at some point and was looking at her with a frown.
"She seems a little dissatisfied with me?" Bai Peacock whispered.
"It's not you."
Yin Xiu quickly backed away, "I asked her to help me..."
"Brother asked me to help him blow." White Peacock replied. "Blow it?"
Ma Xiaoyu blushed at first, then became angry after hearing this, and looked at Yin Xiu with increasingly cold eyes.
"What do you mean by blowing it? Don't talk nonsense!"
Yin Xiu quickly explained: "I just came out of the big snake's belly and took a bath, so I just asked her if it smelled bad."
"If you want to smell something bad, you need to be so close. You hold me and I hold you, cuddling?"
In Ma Xiaoyu's sleeves, a green-faced evil ghost mask loomed, with red eyes staring directly at Yin Xiu.
The more she talked, the angrier she became. Ma Xiaoyu walked forward, but both Yin Xiu and Bai Peacock were frightened and took a step back.
"Brother, what should we do now?" Bai Peacock pulled Yin Xiu's sleeve.
"What should I do? There is obviously nothing between the two of us!"
Yin Xiu felt like the world was spinning, and she couldn't help but raise her hand to cover her forehead.
As soon as he raised his hand, Ma Xiaoyu immediately turned around and felt nauseated.
Yin Xiu stepped forward quickly, but Ma Xiaoyu raised her hand to stop him. After a long time, she took out a bottle of perfume from her pocket and threw it over.
Then she glanced at the white peacock and said, "Do you have rhinitis?"
"No one in the rain forest has ever had this disease." White Peacock affirmed.
"How can you bear such a strong stench?"
"..."
When Yin Xiu finished spraying the perfume and handed the bottle over, Ma Xiaoyu waved her hand in disgust. She obviously didn't even want the bottle.
"I remember this perfume was very expensive."
"When you get back, buy me another bottle. I want it to be a limited edition." Ma Xiaoyu said dissatisfied.
"Okay, okay."
Yin Xiu put the bottle away, and when he looked at the corpse of the big snake, he felt that the pile of rotten meat had no value except for the Gu worms he dug out, so he raised his hand and released the True Yang Life Fire. Burning the big snake's body completely.
"Why did you come here so late?"
Yin Xiu asked Ma Xiaoyu, "Did something happen?"
"It doesn't count."
Ma Xiaoyu took out a package and said, "While these people are here, I walked around the village.
I also found a temple dedicated to King Lingquan.
However, when I entered the temple, I found that although the incense was in full bloom, the aura was completely gone.
Generally speaking, as long as it is enshrined by incense, whether it is monsters, land, gods, etc., some of its trust will be left in the temple.
However, there is no spiritual energy in the temple, which means that the being who was originally worshiped may have disappeared for more than ten years. ”
It took longer than what Yin Xiu had inferred, and the time of King Lingquan's death had to be pushed forward.
"Then what's the package in your hand?"
"Oh, it belongs to this girl."
Ma Xiaoyu threw the package over.
Bai Peacock took it, untied it and found that it was filled with her clothes and other items, and immediately smiled.
"Great, I thought I had to wear this bridal outfit and follow you on the road?"
"Follow us?"
Ma Xiaoyu immediately said on alert: "I'm sorry, it seems that we are not the same people, right?"
"Maybe not before, but it's hard to say after that."
The white peacock pointed at the corpse of the Gu insect on the ground, "I saw this thing from a wizard in the Miao village."
"Miao Village?"
Yin Xiu and Ma Xiaoyu looked at each other and saw confusion in each other's eyes.
Originally, they thought that this poisonous insect was unique to Changbai Mountain and was left by the priests of Shang Dynasty as a tool to guard the tombs.
The reason why the monkeys in Changbai Mountain mutated like that is because the white apes implanted Gu worms in their bodies.
However, White Peacock said that she had seen it in Miao Village?
One is in the north and the other is in the south. They are almost separated by the entire Kyushu. Can there really be any connection between them?
But Bai Peacock said very confidently: "Don't forget, we Miao people are all experts in using voodoo. Even though our sisters have learned some Taoism, the movement of voodoo is far from that of the head-down masters in Nanyang." Nothing can be compared.”
"I know this."
Ma Xiaoyu has always heard from the elders in the clan that the Gu masters in southern Xinjiang are powerful.
Sometimes they need to pull a hair out of your head, or put poison in your meal.
And sometimes, just by talking to you and putting a hand on your body, the voodoo can be implanted into your body and lower your head without even realizing it.
That's why Ma Xiaoyu was so cautious when she first met White Peacock and the others.
The white peacock took out a knife from the package and moved the body of the Gu insect that looked like an iron worm.
"The wizard called this thing a puppet bug, which means it can control people or actions like a puppet."
"We have seen its power before, but only in Changbai Mountain."
Yin Xiu frowned and said, "Doesn't that wizard have relatives in the north?"
"I don't know about that."
White Peacock touched his chin, "But I know that he has a descendant who lives in the Jiaozhi area.
Maybe this Gu insect was brought by him.
Speaking of which, during this trip, Bai Fenghuang and I also planned to ask him for help. ”
"Ask him for help?"
"That's right, for the treasures in the Taoist temple."
A smile flashed across the corner of the white peacock's mouth, "He came from the Miao Village. He owed our leader a favor before, so he has to pay it back. We want him to help us this time."
"Oh, this thing of favor is really unclear."
Yin Xiu sighed: "It's a little easier if you owe money, but human relationships are where you come and go, and you have to push back and forth."
"But I thought you didn't need to worry about this." Ma Xiaoyu said.
"Why?"
"Because the best friends you know will not talk to you about favors, but the people who want to talk about favors to you will often encounter unexpected events."
"You are talking about him as if he is some kind of evil star." White Peacock covered his mouth and laughed.
"You're right about that."
Ma Xiaoyu touched the earring, "Getting close to him will bring misfortune."
"..."
Yin Xiu was teased by the two people and didn't know how to refute for a moment.
He could only stomp on the Gu insect again with his foot, "So, White Peacock, you said you wanted to go with us because of this Gu insect?"
"That's right."
The white peacock showed a mysterious smile, "If I guess correctly, you are going to Thousand Buddha Temple, right?"
"Huh?"
Yin Xiu and Ma Xiaoyu both asked questions.
"The Gu Master our sisters are looking for is in Qianfo Temple." (End of Chapter)
