Chapter 19 The Drunken Beauty of Xiangxi (19)

"The sky is spirited, the earth is spirited, corpses are being driven out in Xiangxi, strangers are avoiding -"

"Bang--"

"Bang--"

The monotonous and harsh sound of the gong sounded on the mountain road on a rainy night, like the neighing of an old crow, sending chills down the spine.

The orange-red 'lights' flickered like ghost fires in the mountains and wild graves, illuminating the rugged and narrow mountain road - unlike when they went up the mountain, they were taking a different mountain road now. This road is narrower and more difficult to walk. It is built against the mountain wall and can only allow one person to pass.

One side is a steep mountain wall, and the other side is a steep and deep valley. If you fall, you will die!

The cold wind blew from the mountain stream, like a ghost crying and a wolf howling, and the ferocious interlaced shadows of the trees were like the skinny claws of ghosts, caged above everyone's head. Wuluo Mountain is remote and rarely inhabited. It is full of large tracts of virgin forest. The path they took was opened by corpse exorcists many years ago. Now it is overgrown with weeds, the stone slabs are covered with moss, the rain is still falling, and the road is wet. Very slippery.

Yu Hean didn't dare to raise his head, and his shoulders, which were supported by the corpse, were so stiff that they were completely unconscious. His whole body was trembling. Looking forward, there were corpses, and behind him, there were corpses. There was only a monotonous sound of gongs.

After walking for a long time, Yu and An would even have the illusion that all their teammates had disappeared, leaving him alone among the corpses!

He finally couldn't help it anymore and stretched his neck eagerly to look ahead to see if his teammates were still there. But suddenly, a dark shadow hung silently from the cliff next to him, hanging in front of Yu Hean like a hanging rope, as if he stretched his neck to hang himself!

"ah--!!!"

"Bang!"

Wei Xun noticed the chaotic noise coming from behind the team. After a while, he heard Lin Xi send a message to Miao Fangfei, saying that Yu Hean mistook the mountain vine for a hanging rope and fell down in fright. It was nothing serious.

Miao Fangfei did not ignore any 'little things', and said with a stern face: "Let everyone put the cooling pill in their mouths and be energetic for the rest of the way!"

Qingliangdan is a homemade medicine made by Miao Fangfei using mint, Tianjihuang, snake strawberry and other herbs. The effect of any props will be weakened in Zuimei Xiangxi, but this homemade medicine can have a greater effect.

Wei Xun also received a small bottle provided by Miao Fangfei. The black pills were as big as jelly beans and had a refreshing sensation when smelling them.

After all this trouble, the team's speed inevitably slowed down a bit. Wei Xun had a rare experience of walking in the mountains at night. It may be due to the effect of physical alienation. Wei Xun felt that his whole body was full of strength and he was not tired at all after walking for so long. He was as enthusiastic as taking a primary school student on an outing. He held the flag with his left hand and held Pingping's blood-hateful dagger in his pocket with his right hand.

The dagger was burning hot, and the corpses following the corpse exorcism team were getting closer and closer.

Although they are afraid of Pingping's resentment, from the moment they came out of Xiaolong Yizhuang, whether it's because the resentment on the dagger has been weakening, or the resentment of the corpses is getting stronger, the distance between them and the brigade has been shortening, and I'm afraid it's reaching There must be a battle between the two sides before the Fierce Bone Plank Road.

Um?

Suddenly, Wei Xun stopped. Miao Fangfei, who was following him, also braked suddenly, and soon the entire brigade came to a stop. The sudden disappearance of the gong sound made Wuluo Mountain even more eerie and quiet, and the sound of rustling rain was like the whisper of ghosts.

"Miao Fangfei, did you see it?"

Miao Fangfei, who only followed Bingjiu and was wary of her surroundings, felt nervous and hurriedly followed the direction pointed by Bingjiu's guide flag. A closer look made her scalp numb.

"Then, what is that?"

A ferocious dark shadow slants deep from the mountain wall, straddling the mountain road, like a dark, skinny giant claw protruding from the cliff. The finger bones are long and ferocious, trying to stop everyone who tries to leave Wuluo Mountain!

Miao Fangfei's scalp felt numb. When she looked carefully, she realized that it was a strange wild pepper tree growing in the cracks of the mountain wall.

What was most horrifying to her was that the dead tree was densely covered with strings of thin chains, with pale bones attached to the ends of the chains. If you look closely, they looked like human finger bones!

When the cold wind blows, the finger bones sway like human bone wind chimes, sending chills all over the body.

But there are rotting corpses blocking the road behind them. It is impossible for them to go back and find another road. They must pass through here!

“Pepper tree, finger bones, finger bones, finger bones—”

Miao Fangfei quickly woke up from the panic, fell into deep thought, and murmured to herself. Suddenly her eyes lit up: "The rotten corpse's missing middle finger bone!"

"The corpse cannot leave Wuluo Mountain. This is a curse."

According to legend, a large area of ​​wild pepper trees grows in front of the Wangchuan River, blocking souls who dream of escaping back to the world without drinking Meng Po soup. Zanthoxylum bungeanum trees, especially wild Zanthoxylum bungeanum trees that are 100 years old, are excellent materials for making witchcraft weapons in the hands of the Miao people. Legend has it that they can trap resentful spirits.

Although this is just a legend, the clever Miao Fangfei immediately connected the legend with reality. The missing finger bones of the rotting corpse and the finger bones hanging on the wild pepper tree. This curse was aimed at the group of corpses behind them. As long as they passed here as soon as possible, Maybe the corpse group will be stopped!

"good."

Bingjiu said softly. Hearing his approval, Miao Fangfei felt a wave of emotions she had never felt before in her heart, such as pride, complexity, and fear. She felt that she was not worthy of Bingjiu's praise - Bingjiu's sudden praise of her must have been intentional!

"Miao Fangfei, you are very good."

Before Miao Fangfei could react, Wei Xun slowly praised, "I can rest assured that the brigade will be left to you."

Wha, what? ?

Miao Fangfei was tense all over and couldn't believe her ears. What Bingjiu meant was——

"You go first."

Bingjiu's chuckle was like a devil whispering: "I'll be back in a minute."

He's leaving the team!

Miao Fangfei's pupils shrank suddenly, and the fear in her heart at this moment was worse than seeing the corpse being replaced! Bingjiu is leaving the team at this time! He, he said, he said he would hand over the brigade to her. Is this Bingjiu's test? Test her loyalty?

She should refuse, no matter what the reason, she couldn't do it, how could she-

"Miao Fangfei, I believe you can do it."

He said he believed her, but, but she——

call--

At this moment, the wind and rain suddenly became stronger, as if someone blew a breath. The smell of rain and rotting branches and leaves hit my face, and the wind caused the wild pepper trees to sway violently. The thin chains on the branches kept clashing like human bone wind chimes. Suddenly, the thin branch seemed to be finally overwhelmed by the load, broke off from the wild pepper tree, rolled into the canyon with several chains, and disappeared in an instant.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

The rapid sound of gongs came from behind the team, and it was Zhao Hongtu who was urging him anxiously. Sure enough, as the curse began to collapse, and the corpses behind him moved again, Miao Fangfei's face turned pale at first, and then she forced herself to calm down. The wild pepper tree was swaying in the strong wind. They had to pass by quickly before it was completely broken and put some distance between themselves and the corpses behind them!

Bingjiu stepped aside and got out of the way of the mountain road. The corners of his lips were slightly raised, as if he was watching her.

Bingjiu believes her!

Miao Fangfei bit her lower lip hard, and the severe pain made her calm down instantly. Miao Fangfei rarely raised her head and looked at Bingjiu. The moment their eyes met, unprecedented emotions filled her heart.

Like a sheepdog who is trusted by its owner and given the responsibility of guarding the sheep. It's like something I couldn't even imagine in my dreams. Tour guides and tourists are united and overcome many difficulties together.

"Waiting for your return."

She nodded solemnly to Bingjiu like an oath, took the tour guide brooch from his hand, and strode forward without hesitation.

Wei Xun stood quietly on the roadside holding the tour guide's flag, watching the corpse removal team go away one by one. The night rain falling on the bronze mask made it even colder. He lifted the mask slightly and breathed a sigh of relief. The water marks and marks pressed on his too pale skin, making it look a bit ghostly, like the mountain spirits in the old forest that suck people's souls.

"To be honest, you are not being fair."

Wei Xun changed the tour guide flag to his left hand.

He was thinking just now that he would stay with the brigade and continue. Could this be considered a tourist leaving the brigade?

If it counts, he will have more good ways to use the guide flag in the future.

But Goubi Hotel will not let him take advantage of this loophole.

[Tour guide Bingjiu, please return to the team within fifteen minutes, otherwise your salary for this trip will be deducted! 】

[Tour guide Bingjiu, please return to the team within fifteen minutes, otherwise your salary for this trip will be deducted! 】

"Fifteen minutes, it's terrible."

Wei Xun stood on the mountain road holding the tour guide's flag, his mouth slightly raised.

"Forget it, you should come together. One by one, I'm afraid there won't be enough time."

"Hey——!"

"Hey——!!!"

On the wild pepper branches, dozens of pairs of scarlet eyes lit up in the darkness. The eyes of resentment and hatred burst out, pointing directly at Wei Xun. On this wild pepper tree, there are actually dozens of corpse-turned-flying foxes!

The claws of most zombie flying foxes are wrapped with chains. They are integrated with the curse on the wild pepper tree, binding the rotting corpses and making them unable to leave for the time being.

but--

A huge black shadow flew silently from the tree crown, like a piece of black cloth floating in the wind. With a buzzing sound, the tour guide's flag suddenly lifted, and the still bright light dimmed instantly.

Tick ​​tock.

Tick ​​tock.

The smelly saliva fell with the rain, and lightning pierced the sky. Under the bright electric light, a monster with exposed muscles and scarlet blood stopped at the top of the guide flag. It stared at Wei Xun with a hateful gaze and suddenly opened its bloody mouth.

"Hey——!"

[Random mission: Fight against the zombie flying fox Commander Zuo]

[Mission Level: Extremely Urgent]

[Task description: Oh my god, Commander Zuo, the corpse-turned-flying fox, is here for ‘Pingping’s Blood Dagger of Resentment’! Please protect the dagger and kill Commander Zuo, the corpse-turned-flying fox! Note that the more ‘Pingping’ items you get, the more rewards you will get when opening new attractions! 】

In an instant, an illusion suddenly appeared in front of Wei Xun's eyes. He was surrounded by relatives and tortured by ghosts and monsters. His eyes were filled with blood, but deep in the scarlet, Wei Xun's eyes remained as calm as before. Suddenly, he swung his flagpole across the board, and the flagpole seemed to hit a hard wall. It rebounded violently, and although it hit the target, the recoil force made Wei Xun stagger back a few steps before he could regain his balance.

What a powerful force!

"Hey——!"

The cunning wisdom of Zuo, the corpse-turned-flying fox, found that the illusions and auditory hallucinations were useless to Wei Xun, so it started the most ordinary and barbaric attack, but this hit Wei Xun's life gate!

Wei Xun's body couldn't withstand the huge strength of the zombie flying fox commander. He tried to attack with the blood dagger, but the sharp and edgeless dagger couldn't cut through the zombie commander Zuo's hard skin, as if he couldn't hurt them.

"spit."

Wei Xun spat out a mouthful of blood. Commander Zuo, who turned into a flying fox, suffered internal injuries due to repeated impacts. Although he withstood each attack, Wei Xun's energy and blood surged with each attack and bite, forcing him to retreat. When his heels were empty, Wei Xun realized that he had retreated to the edge of the mountain road.

If you take another step back, you will fall into the canyon, and the corpse-turned-flying fox commander has attacked Wei Xun again! The shadow of death shrouded his entire body, and the scarlet body full of powerful and violent power was about to throw him into the abyss. At this extremely critical moment——

"You want this, right?"

Wei Xun, who was forced into a desperate situation, laughed loudly. There was no panic in his eyes, only excitement!

"If you want it, go get it!"

The next moment, he threw the Blood Resentment Dagger, using all his strength. Sure enough, at the critical moment, a black shadow passed over his head, chasing the dagger, and swallowed the dagger in mid-air!

"嘤——!!"

Crunchy——

The harsh sound of the friction and growth of muscles and bones was heard. The dagger full of resentment was like some kind of panacea. After swallowing it, Commander Zuo transformed into a corpse and turned into a flying fox. Commander Zuo's body instantly expanded like a calf. Following the inertia, it rushed to the mountain wall, and its sharp claws dug deeply into the stone wall. , as easy as cutting tofu with a knife.

Scarlet eyes were like two little red lanterns, staring at Wei Xun with a hateful light, seeming to be more of a mocking joke, like a cat playing with a mouse.

It becomes stronger and can tear this hateful man in half with just one blow!

But while Commander Feihu was chasing the dagger, Wei Xun took out a knife from his pocket, stabbed himself in the heart like a madman, and shouted:

"Return to zero——"

"Ah, okay, I haven't returned yet!"

Wei Xun laughed loudly in the violent storm, and the blade of the knife deflected, but it pierced his lungs. If the heart is really stabbed and ruptured, Wei Xun will die within a short period of time. That would be the real return to zero, but he hasn't had enough fun yet!

Wei Xun felt a coldness in his chest and had difficulty breathing. Although he will not feel pain, a stab wound to the lungs will cause traumatic hemopneumothorax. Even if it is not life-threatening in a short period of time, it is a serious injury. If not treated in time, respiratory failure will eventually occur. And die.

Wei Xun coughed up a mouthful of blood, and the countdown to death was rapidly declining due to his serious injury!

【Death countdown 23:56:01】

【Death Countdown 19:48:16】

【Death Countdown 11:32:25】

[It has been detected that your death countdown is declining too fast and you have mental problems. Please deal with it in time, otherwise it will cause bad consequences! 】

Due to the impact of the serious injury that caused the death countdown to plummet, Wei Xun's SAN value also began to decrease. This is exactly what he wanted!

[SAN value: 85]

[SAN value: 76]

[SAN value: 69]

drop--

When the SAN value fell below 60, a scarlet warning suddenly appeared in Wei Xun's mind.

【Your body begins to metamorphose! 】

His forehead felt itchy, and the pair of small horns were growing outwards. What was even more itchy was his fingertips. Wei Xun lowered his head, and his figure was reflected in the pool of water.

The dark claws are sharp, the corners of the forehead are like bamboo shoots, and the scarlet eyes are cold and indifferent, without any emotion. Wei Xun grinned, and his reflection was also smiling——

Like a demon that finally climbed out of the abyss and descended into the world.
