I gritted my teeth, gave up the idea of waking my third uncle up, and swung the Dragon Subduing Wooden Sword in my hand, ready to fight the civet cat that would jump at me at any time.
The civet cat let out a low growl, and squatted back, its hind legs arched sharply, and it seemed that it was also preparing to attack.
I wiped the cold sweat off my head with my arm, and at this moment, "Wow..." Suddenly the civet cat screamed, jumped up from the ground, and rushed straight to my face.
Its speed was astonishing, and before I could react, the fishy wind it rolled up had already reached my face.
I blinked in fright, and hurriedly swept forward with the sword in my hand.
As a result, things changed in this instant.
My sword swept through the air, not because the civet cat didn't pounce, but when it pounced halfway, it was suddenly intercepted by something rushing from the side.
The two things collided and quickly wrestled together.The civet cat let out bursts of howling, but quickly lost the wind.
At this time, the two things quickly rolled into the nearby grass. I only saw the wild grass shake violently, and the howling of the civet cat became more and more miserable. It sounded like it was damaged a lot.
I was attacked by that civet cat just now, and I didn't even see what kind of creature it was running over from the side, I only saw a shadow passing by.
Chapter 1258
And the battle in the grass soon died down.
The wild grass stopped shaking violently, and a shadow came out of the grass, standing at the place where the civet cat and I looked at each other just now.
There was moonlight shining there, and the shadow was completely exposed to the moonlight.
"Ah..." Seeing that scene, I couldn't help but exclaimed.
Standing in the moonlight.The one on the grass turned out to be a five or six-year-old child.
It's just that most of the child's skin is exposed outside, and it looks pale and dull when illuminated by the moonlight. It's that kind of dead gray without any luster.His face was even more expressionless, and his two eyes were also gray and lifeless. Staring at me closely made people feel frightened.
Seeing this child, I first concluded that he is definitely not a living person.Because seeing him made me immediately think of those Danqiu brats I had dealt with before.The appearance of this child is the same as those of those little ghosts, but his age looks a little older than those of those little ghosts.
Those Danqiu ghosts are one of the few ghosts with physical bodies.Other ghosts are intangible, but Danqiu ghosts have bodies.So I still can't tell whether the child in front of me is a ghost or a corpse.
The child was holding a civet cat in his hand, which was the one that was about to attack me just now.The civet cat's neck had been bitten off, its head drooped feebly, and there was still blood on the child's mouth.Obviously this ferocious civet cat has been bitten to death by this child.
The child kept staring at me, his eyes dull and lifeless. I didn't know his intentions, and I didn't dare to make any big moves.
This situation lasted for about 2 minutes. The child seemed to be very interested in me. After watching for a while, an expression appeared on his face. It was a curious expression. After hesitating for a while, he tilted his head and raised his legs. came to me.
As soon as I was shocked, my mind suddenly became confused. At this time, I didn't know whether to run or stay.
When the child came within two meters of me, I smelled a strong smell of earth.
I sniffed, and the child stopped walking suddenly.
Because at this time, from an unknown direction, there was a sound that sounded like an animal roaring. The sound should be very loud, but it was a little weak when it came to this side.
When the child heard the sound, he suddenly stopped, and without any warning, he picked up the dead civet cat, jumped a few times in a row, and quickly got into the bushes.
I only saw the weeds on the ground shake for a while, and the child was gone.
I was in a daze, when I heard someone beside me yelling in a low voice: "What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and chase after me."
Before I finished speaking, a figure passed by me, and chased after the child in the direction where he was fleeing.
All this happened in a few seconds, and when I realized that it was Uncle San who ran past me, he had already run more than ten meters away at an extremely fast speed.
"Damn it." I yelled, quickly reached out to pick up the backpack, and chased after him.
The third uncle is in front of me, and I am chasing after him.Since the incident happened so suddenly, I didn't have time to ask him anything.
There is no road at all in this land boundary. We almost passed through the forest, running too fast, and there were many weeds and branches around us that we couldn't avoid, which caused pain on our body and face.I guess the face must be disfigured, but the third uncle has no intention of slowing down.
I knew he was following the kid who ran away in front, and he was afraid that he would lose track if he slowed down.
In this way, we have been chasing for nearly half an hour, and there are still several kilometers of mountain roads when we run out.I was already exhausted, but luckily my third uncle finally stopped in front.
I ran over, I couldn't care about anything else, and asked out of breath, "Third Uncle, you...why didn't you say hello, you knew everything that happened just now? You...you didn't Have you settled down? When did you wake up?"
The third uncle was also sweating profusely from exhaustion, and waved his hands and said, "I... I have been awake all the time, okay. I guessed that it is not normal for the corpse to disappear in that place. Sure enough, there will be a situation after dark Yes. That child, if I guessed correctly, should be that Chenchen."
"Ah?" The third uncle's words woke me up.In fact, that child's age was very close to when Chen Chen died, so it is reasonable to say that he was Chen Chen.It's just that I haven't thought about it, I didn't expect Chenchen to appear in front of us so easily.
"He is Chenchen? Then is he a corpse or a ghost? How can you be so sure that it is Chenchen?"
I asked my third uncle while looking ahead.We chased all the way here, and there was no sign of the child in front of us.I don't know if the third uncle stopped following him or lost the child.
The third uncle chased here in a hurry all the way, but he was not in a hurry when he got here. He held his chest and took a few breaths, then squatted down against a tree.
"No mistake. Based on what Chen Jinhua said, she can't find Chenchen's soul anywhere. I'm 90.00% sure that the child is Chenchen. As for your question, whether he is a corpse or a ghost, I think he is now It is more likely to be a corpse, and his soul is definitely not in this body. But it is not entirely correct to say that he is a corpse, because there is no corpse energy in him."
"There is no corpse aura? No wonder we chased here with the probe, and there is no target to track. Since he is a corpse, where did the corpse aura go?"
The third uncle shook his head: "I don't know yet. But I think we have found Chenchen's body, and we are very close to finding Chenchen's soul."
I looked around and asked, "But third uncle, why didn't you chase after here, and now Chenchen is gone. Where can we find it?"
The third uncle took a few more breaths, waved his hands and said, "I can't chase anymore. Haven't you seen it yet, that Chenchen was recruited by something."
"Is that the roar?"
The third uncle nodded: "That's right. This means that in this mountain forest, besides Chenchen, there are other creatures. And this kind of creature can control Chenchen. Maybe the corpse aura on Chenchen is related to him. So we can't chase too close, so as not to startle the snake."
At this moment, there was another muffled roar, which was more real than what we heard in that place just now.
But the sound didn't sound like an animal to me, it was more like a human shouting.
I asked my question, and Third Uncle nodded, indicating that he also felt the same way.
Is there anyone else here?The man's roar was too scary to listen to.
Chapter 1259 Calling a Cat
Following that cry, babble...
From the grass not far away, two animals sprang out suddenly, and quickly walked through the grass.
Since the moonlight here is not bad, I can see that it is two civet cats.
The third uncle sighed and said, "Unfortunately, we couldn't keep up with the two civet cats. Their whereabouts are likely to be where the sound is. It seems that the person who made the cry is very powerful. Not only can he summon the corpse, but he can also Control animals like raccoon cats."
I nodded and asked, "Would it be possible to find that mysterious person by following these civet cats, but that civet cat runs too fast, we can't keep up with our speed with two more legs."
The third uncle was also at a loss. We chased all the way here. It can be said that we have exhausted the methods. The probe used by the third uncle has worked very well.But later, after the corpse gas disappeared, the probe couldn't solve the fundamental problem.
Now it can be said that there is only one step away from that mysterious place, but it is this step away that makes us daunted.Although the forest area here is not a virgin forest, it is also considered high mountains and dense forests. If you want to find a precise location, it is very easy to get lost if you don't have a reliable route and direction.
The third uncle squatted on the ground trying to find a way, suddenly seemed to have thought of something, stood up suddenly, and said to me: "My brain is not bright, why didn't I think of this. Eldest nephew, I remember you have a cat tail , That thing is very useful, you can try to use that cat tail to give an order to the civet cats here, let them lead us to that place."
I didn't understand what the third uncle meant at first, but after I was reminded by the third uncle, I suddenly realized: "What kind of cat's tail, mine is a fire raccoon tail, which was given to me by the fire raccoon king. But can this work? I I understand what you mean, but the area where the Fire Fox King is active is far away from here. Can it control this place no matter how powerful it is? Besides, I am Fire Fox Tail, which means that the ones who can order are the cats and dogs, Here are some civet cats, although they look a bit alike, but they are not the same species, right?"
The third uncle waved his hand: "Nephew, you don't understand. The Huo raccoon king is only active in that area, and I am afraid there will be no second one like that in the world. As long as the fire raccoon tail is still spiritual, it will It must be able to control all the civet cats in the world. And I think that the civet cats and the civet cats here are just because of the different areas of activity, so there is a little difference in size and appearance, but they must belong to the same category biologically. It’s a subject. If you don’t believe me, go back and ask Lao Ma... besides, your kid’s head is rusted, don’t care if it works, try it out, if it doesn’t work, think of another way.”
I heard what my third uncle said was reasonable, so I found out the fire raccoon tail on my body.Of these things I got, as long as I could carry them, I carried them all with me.This Fire Fox Tail has never been used since we left the Valley of the Undead, but I take it with me every time I travel.
This time we really encountered a problem, and I am going to use it to try its power.
I looked around with the fire raccoon tail, and the third uncle also helped me search, and found a slightly higher soil slope more than ten meters away from us.
I climbed up the dirt slope holding the fire raccoon tail, held the fire raccoon tail in the air, and shook it a few times.
The use of this fire fox tail is very simple, because I have fire spirit saliva in my body, so as long as I release the smell of this fire fox tail into the air, it will be caught by the nearby cats.No mantras or formulas are needed.
It's just that I'm not sure whether the civet cats here will buy this fire raccoon tail.After all, strictly speaking, the two are not the same creature.
I shook the Huoxtail several times, but I never got any response.
I looked around, but no creatures were summoned.I remembered that when I was in Xiaozhou Mountain in the Immortal Valley, I wandered around so many times, there were already cats and raccoons waiting for my orders.
I couldn't help but feel a little discouraged, feeling that this was just an attempt that we really had no other way of doing, and the failure of the attempt only proved that this trick didn't work, and we needed to find other ways quickly.
I was about to come down from the slope, but the third uncle hurriedly said: "Don't come down. This is not Xiaozhou Mountain. You need to give those civet cats a process of adaptation. They also need to distinguish. You stop for a while and give them some time."
I nodded, and continued to stand on the soil slope with the fire raccoon tail, shaking it constantly, releasing the smell of fire raccoon tail.
It took about 15 minutes, which is far beyond the time that the fire raccoon tail worked before.Even the third uncle, who was calm on the surface, was a little discouraged.
I shook my head, maybe this is a useless effort in itself, that's fine, I will stop thinking about it in the future.It seems that the fire raccoon tail will be useless if it leaves Xiaozhou Mountain, so it should be regarded as a souvenir of the fire raccoon king.
The third uncle waved his hand: "Nephew, take it. It seems that we have to find a way by ourselves."
With that said, Uncle San turned around and prepared to leave the place.
I also put away the fire fox tail and was about to go down the slope, but at this moment, the third uncle who was walking in front suddenly turned back as if he had been electrocuted, and whispered continuously: "Come here, come here! ...Eldest nephew, go back quickly, the fire fox tail is working."
I didn't see anything, but seeing Uncle San's reaction was great, I hurried back to the slope, and raised the fire fox tail again.
After the third uncle walked back, I also found four lights appeared in the grass on the opposite side.
Four points of light prove that two unknown creatures have come.
These two creatures should be on guard, tentatively hiding in the grass for a few minutes before slowly poking their heads out.
Sure enough, it was the faces of two civet cats. They were all staring at the fire civet tail in my hand, and slowly got out of the grass.
Compared with the civet cat I saw that was killed by Chenchen, these two civet cats are half the size.It looks a little smaller than a normal house cat.These turned out to be two juvenile civet cats.
The two little civet cats were skinny, their eyes were dull, and their bodies looked very weak. After walking two steps forward, one of the civet cats gave a limp front leg and fell to the ground.
I looked around again, and apart from these two cockroaches, there were no other civet cats coming.
Holding the fire civet tail in my hand, I walked down the slope and approached the two civet cats.
The two civet cats first turned and ran away subconsciously, then turned around and looked at me hesitantly.
I know that all civet cats that can be called have more or less spirituality.
Chapter 1260
Looking at the two little civet cats in front of me, I was a little excited. I was afraid they would run away again, so I hurriedly said, "Don't worry, I'm the spokesperson of the Huo Liwang, and I won't hurt you."
The two civet cats seemed to understand what I said, and this time they squatted on the grass with peace of mind.
The third uncle reminded me: "Aren't they hungry? They look weak."
I nodded, and took out the leftover pancake from my backpack. I didn't know if the raccoon cat would eat this kind of thing, so I tore the pancake into two parts and threw it to the two little civet cats.
Maybe it was because of hunger, the two little civet cats smelled it first, then opened their mouths, and ate the pancakes in big mouthfuls, almost swallowing them in a few mouthfuls.
After eating, the little civet cat licked its mouth and looked at me with some unsatisfactory expressions.
I looked at the third uncle and asked, "Third uncle, they are not full, do they have anything to eat, take it out."
The third uncle replied angrily: "No. I've already finished my portion. I said we're not here to feed the cats, just something to eat. Hurry up and get down to business."
I had no choice but to spread my hands at the two little civet cats: "No, there are only so many. But you have to do me a favor, take us to find a place, then I will find something to feed you, understand? "
I set the speed of speech very slowly, hoping that these two little civet cats could understand me.
But unfortunately, although these two little civet cats seem to be full of spirituality, they can't understand my words.After hearing this, they didn't say anything, they were still staring at my bag, as if they were still wanting something to eat.
I said it several times in a row and they are still indifferent.
The fire of hope that we had just been ignited was suddenly extinguished.It seems that these two civet cats are still too young and have some spirituality, but not enough for them to obey my command.The reason why they were attracted by my fire fox tail was completely out of instinct, they smelled the smell of fire fox tail and thought they had companions here.
I looked at the third uncle helplessly, and the third uncle also shook his head. It seems that our hard work has been wasted for a long time.
And these two civet cats, after realizing that they could no longer get food from me, shook their heads, turned around and slid into the grass.
Their speed is far worse than those of the big civet cats. My heart moved, and I hurriedly said: "Third Uncle, will they go to find their mother? If we follow them, we may find the place where the big civet cats go. Maybe there That's where we're looking for."
The third uncle's eyes lit up and he nodded.The two of us carried our bags and followed the two civet cats not far away to go deeper into the mountain.
Since we had just fed them, they were not very wary of us. They turned around and saw us a few times, but they did not panic or run away, but continued to move forward, as if they were still waiting for us.
At this moment, we have no idea at all, only this last line is left, and we don't know where these two little civet cats will take us in the end.
We followed them all the way through several forests. In order to avoid getting lost, the third uncle held a compass and made marks on the surrounding trees from time to time.
After walking for more than half an hour, the two civet cats in front suddenly quickened their pace, but they may have some physical problems, even when they ran, they still staggered.
We followed from a distance, and suddenly found a valley in front of us.And those two little civet cats ran directly down the valley.
Compared with the mountains and forests we have been passing through, the valley lacks the cover of trees, so that the moonlight can just fully shine in.Just after the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar, the moon in the sky is full and bright, so that we can see the situation in the valley below without relying on any lighting equipment.
Let us stop because we saw several thatched huts in the valley.In one of the thatched huts there was light.
In front of and behind the house, there are still many dark green light spots flickering.We guessed that those were civet cats coming from all directions.The two little civet cats ran down from here, obviously they found the big team.
