Chapter One Hundred
After being asked by Senior Brother Feng, I realized that my master is not here, and I am the only disciple of Shouzheng. In this case, Shouzheng's disciples must take the initiative to take the initiative to take the lead.
In the past, I always felt that I was good. I had to practice martial arts with my master over the years, and it was no problem for ordinary evil spirits and evil corpses. But at this moment, such a burden fell on my shoulder without warning. I suddenly realized that Liang Zi and the others' lives were now in my hands, and I felt a sense of unintentional tension in my heart.
At this time, I suddenly remembered that in addition to us, there were two large-scale captives in the tent in the northwest direction.
No matter whether these prisoners are good or bad people, or what purpose they are for coming here, as disciples of the righteous lineage, I now have to ensure their safety. My master once said that in front of evil spirits, people are human beings, and there is no distinction between high and low.
Seeing that I had been staring at the tent in the northwest direction, Liang Houzai quickly understood my intention. He gave me a look, then walked out of the crowd and ran towards the tent.
Most of the people Liangzi brought were unknown what happened, but no one asked too much. When Liang Houzai ran out, I found that there were people on guard at every direction of the bonfire. They besieged a round wall of people, surrounding me, Senior Brother Zhuang and Senior Brother Feng.
Two of them had provided cover for Liang Houzai. They held guns and pointed the muzzles at both sides of Liang Houzai.
Liang Houzai quickly entered the tent, and then dragged the two prisoners out. Just as Liang Houzai rushed out of the tent, a red figure suddenly appeared behind him. At this moment, an extremely strong yin energy suddenly appeared near the tent.
I wanted to help Liang Houzai, but I was too far away from him and could only watch the figure quickly emerge in the shadow.
The two soldiers who helped Liang Houzai cover pulled the trigger. After two crisp gunshots, one bullet hit the tent and the other hit the grass.
Because the distance between the figure and Liang Houzai was too close, and the sight at night was relatively blurred, if the two soldiers rashly shot at the figure, it would be very easy to injure Liang Houzai by accident. In this case, they could only fire a gun to warn him.
Liang Houzai also reacted quickly. While rolling on the spot, he took out two talismans from his arms and threw them behind him with his backhand.
Since experiencing the incident of the bronze armor corpse, Liang Houzai has been accustomed to carrying a few talismans to exorcise evil spirits on his body.
But after the talisman flew out, the red figure disappeared at an extremely fast speed, and the yin energy in the air disappeared without a trace.
Liang Houzai did not dare to delay, dragged the two prisoners back and leaned towards us with all his strength. When he arrived outside the wall, Liangzi and Dawei quickly went up to help and dragged the prisoners to the fire.
The two prisoners were awake at this moment, but they were blocked and could not speak for the time being.
I asked Liang Houzai: "Did you see clearly what it is?"
Liang Houzai shook his head: "I didn't see clearly, but it should be an evil corpse. It has a stinking smell of corpse on it. Although it is very light, it does."
Senior Brother Feng pulled out the thing from one of the prisoners and asked him: "What was that just now? You should have seen it before?"
The captive's mouth is blocked with a cloth strip. In this way, the mouth is usually blocked very deeply and full. While pressing the tongue completely, it will also greatly lead to breathing difficulties.
The captive first took a long breath of fresh air, then said, "It's... a ghost in red."
It can be seen that his expression was extremely nervous at the moment, and he seemed to be very afraid of the dirty things in the forest.
I looked at Liang Houzai again, and Liang Houzai frowned and said, "There is indeed a corpse smell, I should be right."
Of course, I have no reason to doubt Liang Houzai's words, but if that thing is an evil corpse, how did it suddenly appear and disappear? It seems that only ghosts can do such things, right? But if it is an evil ghost, why would there be a corpse smell on it?
No matter what kind of spirit it is, it will not smell any on its body.
At this time, Senior Brother Feng asked the prisoner again: "How did you deal with it before?"
The captive shook his head: "There is no way to deal with it. I only know that it seems to have a deep fear of Erlong Bay and will never approach the river."
Senior Brother Feng's face suddenly darkened and he asked: "Who told you that it never approaches the river?"
The prisoner was stunned for a moment and quickly lowered his head, not seeming to be planning to respond to my Senior Brother Feng’s question.
I can't figure it out no matter what. Why did my Senior Brother Feng suddenly ask this question? By the way, since these mercenaries have come into contact with the so-called evil spirit, even if they understand some of its characteristics and habits, it is not strange.
Moreover, judging from the captive's panic expression, Senior Brother Feng guessed correctly. There was indeed someone to give advice behind them, and for them, the identity of this person cannot be easily expressed.
This reminds me of the person who jumped in and out of the excavator before. The last call he made was contacting the master behind them?
Actually, I just think about it. With my Senior Brother Feng here, it’s not my turn to worry about these things. My top priority now is to deal with evil spirits and ensure everyone’s safety.
At this time, Senior Brother Feng said to me: "He said that the evil spirit never approached the river, so he shouldn't have lie to us, otherwise they would not have guarded such an evil spirit and dared to build near the river. However, the master used Gangbu to suppress the Yin Qi of the river before, which led to the changes in the Feng Shui aura here. It is hard to say whether the evil spirit will approach the river in the future. But I think the aura at the entrance of Erlong Bay's tomb should have some deterrent effect on it."
I looked at the bonfire not far away, turned around and looked at the river in Erlong Bay, and was a little unsure of attention for a moment.
No matter what the evil spirit is, one thing is obvious: it is afraid of bonfires, especially the yang energy on the bonfire. However, such a fire will be burned sooner or later. Once the bonfire is extinguished, what will happen later is hard to say.
But the estuary of Erlong Bay in our location is still a distance. When we retreat to the riverside, we will lose the protection of the bonfire. It is hard to say what evil spirits will do at that time.
But no matter what, the best way to deal with the dirty things in the forest is to use the aura in the Dragon King’s tomb.
I asked Senior Brother Feng in a low voice: "Senior Brother, can you think of a way to lead the aura of the Dragon King's tomb outside."
Senior Brother Feng's expression was also a little undecided: "It's okay to draw it out, but the yin energy in the tomb is too heavy. If you draw that aura out, the bonfire may be extinguished."
Speaking of this, Senior Brother Feng paused for a moment and said to me: "But there is not much firewood in the fire, and it is estimated that the bonfire will be extinguished in less than an hour."
There was no other way at the moment. Senior Brother Feng and I briefly discussed it, and finally decided to lure out the aura of the Dragon King’s tomb and drive away the evil spirit.
Senior Brother Feng wanted to use the river water in Erlong Bay to form a formation. Liang Houzai and I followed him out of the crowd, protecting him from the left and right. Liang Zi also came out. He raised the gun in his hand at us, meaning to cover us. Liang Houzai and I did not refuse, and let him follow him.
To be honest, Liang Houzai and I were calm on the surface, but we were actually very nervous. With Liang Zi's shot, we felt a little more at ease.
We protected Senior Brother Feng to the Erlongwan River. Senior Brother Feng stopped and watched the surrounding environment, and then took off his helmet from the Liangzi head.
When Senior Brother Feng squatted down and immersed the steel helmet into the water, his body seemed to be pulled by some force. If Liang Houzai and I hadn't been quick-eyed and fast-handed, he would have almost fallen into the water.
After Brother Feng stood up, he looked at the center of the river and breathed a sigh of relief, saying to me: "There is an undercurrent in the center of the river and the adsorption power is very strong. The entrance to the Dragon King's Tomb should be there."
While listening to Senior Brother Feng’s words, I paid attention to the surroundings.
Originally, when a few of us left the bonfire, the evil spirit suddenly attacked us, but until now, it has not appeared.
The river bank of Erlong Bay is so quiet that it makes people frightened. Apart from the sound of Senior Brother Feng's speech, I can only hear the slight sound of running water. There is not even a trace of wind in the air. However, the few old banyan trees in the distance still sway their branches and leaves, swaying without making any sound.
Senior Brother Feng held the helmet full of river water and took us to the entrance of the mountain road. He looked at the direction of the river and muttered something: "Three miles inside and three miles outside, wind and water are driving. The Feng Shui of this place can only be a fierce formation for five tigers to capture sheep. Alas, trouble."
I don’t understand Feng Shui, nor do I understand what Senior Brother Feng said, but I just kept paying attention to the movements nearby.
Liang Houzai and Liang Zi also looked nervous and vigilant. Among us, only Senior Brother Feng still looked like he was not anxious or slow.
He tilted his helmet and poured a small handful of river water on the ground. He said to me: "The Feng Shui of Erlong Bay is very special. The formation I set up may only draw out 100% or 20% of the aura of the Dragon King's tomb. At that time, it may not be able to drive away evil spirits. What if the evil spirits don't leave? You have to make plans early."
Before I could nod, Senior Brother Feng walked towards an old banyan tree on the edge of the forest.
