"Nie Zhan, since you don't know what to do, don't blame me for being rude!"
While shouting this, Yi Ba stabbed towards the side of the incense stick with his sword finger. As soon as the sword finger reached, I heard a scream of "ah". After that scream, the incense immediately stopped burning as fast as before.
The kid who came to cause trouble was taken care of by Yi Ba, so I can naturally turn my mind back to divination!
The world sits on the soil structure of Gouchen, breaking through the countryside; it should be near the water lines of Xuanwu, with ditches, pits, ponds and wells. Judging from this hexagram, the Qiedu patriarch we are looking for should be somewhere with water.
"Has the divination come out?" Yi Ba asked me.
"Yes!" I nodded and said, "Chief Chedu should still be alive. Judging from the hexagrams, he should be in a place near the water."
"A place near the water?" Dani He looked at me seriously and asked: "What is a place near water?"
"It is a place with water. Streams, pools, etc., can all be counted as places near water. ." I said.
“There are many places with water on this mountain.” Dani frowned and asked, “Can you tell, in which direction we go, the probability of encountering the leader of the Chedu clan will be greater. "Some?"
"Since we are looking for water, it is best to go to the ridge. The ridge is north, let's try walking to the north!" This is not a divination, it is my guess. came out.
Dani took us and walked north.
After walking for about half an hour, a small stream appeared in front of us.
The water in this creek is dark and smelly. In this mountain, the natural environment should be very good! The stream water should be very clear! Why is the water in this creek so polluted?
“Do you think the water looks wrong?” I pointed to the stream in front of me and asked Yi Ba and Dani.
"It is said that in the mountains, the stream water should be clear. This water is a bit too smelly, and it still smells rancid." Dani took over the words and said.
Yi Ba fanned himself with his hand and smelled the stench coming from the stream.
"This smells a bit like corpse odor. How about we walk upstream along the creek and see if we can find anything?" Yi Ba put forward his suggestion.
"Okay!" I nodded in agreement, and Dani also agreed.
The three of us went up the creek. While walking, some bodies appeared by the stream. However, these corpses are not of humans, but of animals.
"How come there are so many dead animals?" I asked.
Dani knelt down and stared at the corpses for a while, then said: "These animals should have been bitten to death by Gu insects."
Gu insects? As soon as I heard these two words, I unconsciously thought of Chief Chedu.
“Since there are Gu insects, doesn’t it mean that there are Gu masters in this area? Judging from the hexagram I made, Chief Chedu should be by the water. There are Gu insects by the stream. Doesn't the corpse of the killed animal mean that there is a Gu Master nearby? I just don't know if that Gu Master is the leader of the Chedu clan we are looking for." I analyzed.
"Let's keep going up! It looks like there are a lot of bones in front of us!" Yi Ba raised his head and looked ahead and said.
The higher we go, the more animal bones appear by the stream, and these carcasses look a little fresher than those below.
"It feels like we are getting closer to that Gu Master!" I said.
“Look, what is that?”
At this moment, Yi Balan roared like this, and then pointed his finger forward. Looking in the direction of Yi Ba's finger, I saw a corpse.
The body was not that of an animal, but that of a man.
“Why are there dead people?”
We hurried over, and after Dani checked the man's body, she said, "He was killed by a poisonous insect."
"Did the leader of the Chedu clan do it?" I looked worriedly. To Dani.
“It’s hard to say.” Dani frowned and said, “When we were in the village, Chief Chedu was a good man and would never harm anyone’s life. But the poison is an evil thing after all, he Hiding in this deep mountain alone It has been ten years since I came to the old forest to hunt for and raise voodoos, and my character may have changed drastically.”
“Let’s find the leader of the Chedu clan first, just in case this person wasn’t killed by him. What?" Yi Ba said.
“Hmm!”
I nodded, and the three of us continued walking forward.
The further I go, the less secure my heart becomes. Since seeing the first human corpse, several more human corpses have appeared in front of our eyes.
Judging from the appearance of these corpses, these guys who were killed died quite miserably.
“The methods are really ruthless!” Dani said.
“What do you think of these people who were killed?” I asked Dani.
"When I saw the first corpse, I thought that the person might have offended a certain Gu Master and was killed by him using Gu insects. But judging from the latest corpses, the Gu Master seemed to be... Trying the poison on a living person," Dani said.
"Trying voodoo on a living person?" I looked at Dani in disbelief and asked, "Why would he do this?"
"Some voodoo masters raise voodoo, It's for self-defense; some Gu masters raise Gu to kill themselves." Dani paused and said: "Since we are trying to kill people, we naturally have to use living people for experiments!"
"The person who wants to kill these people is really the leader of the Chedu clan, then he has become a great evil man. If that's the case, what's the point of looking for him?" I asked.
“I hope it’s not him.” Dani seemed a little unsure when she said this.
"Besides the leader of the Chedu clan, is there anyone else hiding in the mountains raising Gu?" Yi Ba asked Dani.
“I really don’t know about this.” Dani frowned and said, “Anyway, in the past few decades, the only person in our village who has come to the mountains to look for poison is Chief Chedu.”< br>
“There is only the Chedu Clan Chief?” Yi Ba sighed and said, “The one who killed these people is probably the Chedu Clan Chief.”
“We also There's no need to be so pessimistic." I took the words and said, "Don't you know the old snake farmer we met just now? There is no way there is only one Gu master in this mountain."
"That's right." Dani nodded and said, "I know the leader of the Chedu clan. He is a good person. Although he is obsessed with raising voodoo, he should not become bad."
The three of us chatted and continued walking forward.
"Ah! Ah!"
There was a cry from the front. This cry was made by a human being, and it sounded quite miserable.
"Let's go quickly and see if anyone has been killed." This was my first reaction.
The three of us ran forward for almost two to three hundred meters, and then we saw a guy rolling by the stream. The guy's face was twisted into a twist, and he looked very painful.
Just as we arrived, he died. When he died, his eyes were so wide open that he looked quite frightening.
"It's too late." I said.
"Even if we came earlier, we couldn't save him." Dani said.
"Is the poison that caused him serious?" I asked.
"The Gu worm is still in his body, but the green girl doesn't dare to come out, which shows that the thing must be very powerful." Dani frowned and said, while she was stepping back got up.
Dani started to retreat, so naturally Yi Ba and I couldn't just stand there like idiots! Of course you have to follow Dani and take a few steps back!
There was a small black head protruding from the man's nostrils. It is a centipede, its body is very thin but very long, and its whole body is shiny black.
After the black centipede emerged from the guy's nostril, it raised its head and looked at Dani. Looking at it like this, it looks a bit like it's confronting Dani!
"What is it trying to do? Does it want to attack us?" I asked Dani.
"It won't attack us yet, but it seems to be waiting for its owner's order. Once its owner gives it an order, this guy will attack us immediately." Dani responded to my words , while staring at the black centipede.
Looking at Dani like this, she seems to be facing a formidable enemy! "Judging from this black centipede, can we fight against its owner?" I asked Dani.
