who knows

From the moment she stepped into the backyard of this house, Zhong Liqing felt an unusual coldness, as if being spied on by something, even in the clear sky and daylight, she felt this uncomfortable feeling. Things are not simple.

Sure enough, at night, the things in the yard couldn't help it.

Under the bright moonlight, the outline of the monster in the pool slowly emerged—it was a strange face covered by scales, which looked like a mouse but not a mouse, like a fish but not a fish, and its eyes were human-like. No pupils, no nose, only a huge mouth deformed by sharp teeth grinning at her, there are a few lively koi inside, which are chewed and swallowed by it, but it is not enough. Gap.

Those gloomy eyes stared fixedly at Zhong Liqing standing on the stone table, full of malice and greed...the desire to tear her into food and swallow her.

In the handwritten notes left by A Niang, there is such a record in the "Zhiguai Jing Shui Pian": Surabaya has a strange name, scaly face, with a head like a mouse, a body like a fish, short limbs without a tail, and sharp teeth. Like a knife, it likes to eat fish and shrimps, and every extra scale will increase its ferocity, until it is covered with scales, it will be extremely fierce, violent, and very enemy.

Most of this scaly face has been covered by scales, and the root of the tooth is covered with a circle of black blood stains. I don't know how many living people it swallowed to breed such ferocity. The koi in this pond, I'm afraid that he has eaten the flesh and blood of many people to grow up so fat, so aggressive and surly.

It's just that this scaly face is just an ordinary monster after all, and it is still within the range of manpower. The one behind Zhong Liqing to the right is not so easy to deal with.

When looking at the house with those people, the first thing that attracted Zhong Liqing was naturally the abundant aura contained in the house through the reflection of the crystal beads; the second reason was the big banyan tree planted in the yard.

The banyan tree has spirits, happy spirits, nourishing spirits, and has the effect of exorcising evil spirits and avoiding evil. It is a symbol of peace in the house. Often wealthy businessmen and officials like to plant a banyan tree in their yards to protect their newborn children.

It's just that this banyan tree is not as neutral and peaceful as usual, and there is a hint of evil, the color of the tree body is dull, but the crown is too bright and broad, which is not very harmonious.

The white shadow with half of its head poking out from behind the banyan tree is the spirit of the banyan tree; it is said to be a spirit, but it does not have the wisdom of ordinary creatures, but an evil spirit formed by a collection of resentment and malice. More like a hated sneak.

The monks who are good at suppressing evil spells call this kind of vicious parasitic spirit parasitic on the tree an obstacle.

This blind eye is different from the weird looking scaly face in the pool, with white shadows fluttering like rootless duckweed, but what it looks at is clearly a human face, or a child's face with no more than a corner. It's just that there are no whites in the eyes, only two dark pupils are left, the lips are also faintly purple, and the complexion is pale and ghostly.

Zhong Liqing squinted his eyes and looked, but there were red blood lines under the blind foot that seemed to have no roots, winding and connecting to the root of the banyan tree, and the knots were entangled. The roots are involved in controlling the blindness, and it is the blindness that plunders the banyan tree's nutrients for its own use.

Judging from this posture, someone must have buried the flesh and blood of an underage child under the banyan tree root. Over the years, the child's wronged soul has merged with the banyan tree and became a spirit. Judging from the blood fed back by the banyan tree, the child It is only by being sealed alive under the tree roots, completely drained of flesh and blood, and sucked out, that such substantial resentment can be melted out.

I don't know who wrote it... No matter what the purpose is, it really destroys humanity.

No wonder that person mentioned that the yard is not very clean, how can it accommodate living people if it can be kept for so long?

Zhong Liqing squinted her eyes, put away her untimely sobs, raised her hand solemnly, and held a Qingling Talisman in her hand - but at least one thing is certain, this blindness that is integrated with the banyan tree is not easy to deal with.

Tsk, it's not easy for her, who has not yet reached the stage of Qi refining, to deal with this resentful blindness, and also be careful of the scales in the pool.

"Girl who is watching the theater opposite, please help, otherwise it will not be beautiful if the pool of water is dirty and the water source of your house is affected." Suddenly, Zhong Liqing turned her head and raised her voice towards the west courtyard wall.

As soon as her words fell, a slender figure appeared on the wall without a sound, and it was unknown how long she stayed there. It was the neighbor who had met once in the evening, that elegant woman.

"Your Excellency is too modest, I think you can subdue these two monsters by yourself, so why should I do anything extra?" After Zhong Liqing pointed out her own existence, the woman appeared, but she just shrugged lightly, not knowing if she was sincere. pretend.

"Twenty spiritual coins." When the woman smiled unmoved, Zhong Liqing added softly, "Plus ten silver talismans."

"Deal," the woman agreed without hesitation, pointing her fingers together to form a sword, pointing at the barrier that roared silently and oscillated with sound waves, "The ones on the tree belong to me, and the ones in the water belong to you."

"...Okay." Seeing her willingness to agree, Zhong Liqing suddenly regretted a little bit - she knew that the silver talisman was in demand, but she didn't expect that it would be so easy to convince her to make a move.

——If I knew it earlier, I would say five.

It is said that no meritorious deeds are not rewarded, so after receiving the reward, it is natural to make some merits, otherwise you will be ashamed of the reward.

Although Zhong Liqing didn't expect to be able to ask the neighbor who lives across the door to clean up the blindness and scabs - originally, since she dared to buy this house and live in it, she was fully confident in herself, but now Adhering to the principle of not taking advantage of the advantage, not taking advantage of the advantage, and not using it for nothing, first ask the girl in the foundation building period to restrain the obstacle, and solve the scales in the water with all my heart, and then free up my hands to deal with it. The ghost in the tree.

This can also save energy to deal with the next thing-whether it is selling the house to her man, or this inexplicable neighbor, before they figure out the purpose of their approach and the relationship with these two monsters , Zhong Liqing remained extremely vigilant and treated the other party as an enemy.

In fact, in her heart, there are only three types of people in this world—A Niang, others, and enemies.

A Niang gave her all her emotions, and she was the only one she put in her heart. As for the irrelevant others, she didn't have to take it to heart; when dealing with enemies, there was no other choice but to kill them.

It's just that she didn't expect that she still underestimated the girl who hid the strength of the foundation-building stage at the mid-qi refining stage, or underestimated the supernatural powers of the monks in the foundation-building stage. She thought that if she didn't want to expose her strength, Just a simple shot, at most it can only block and surround that obstacle for a while, but it can't deal with it.

Unexpectedly, the girl agreed to her reward, nodded slightly, then flew lightly towards the big banyan tree in the courtyard, slowly raised a finger, a pinch of spiritual flames danced at the fingertips, and unexpectedly is black.

The flame seemed to be dancing, twisting enchantingly at the tip of her fingertips, and it was not out of her control, waiting for instructions—this also meant that her control of the flame had reached a terrifying level. the point.

And that ray of black flames looked harmless, but exuded a cold and deep aura, and the blind eye who was still staring at Zhong Liqing's direction suddenly screamed, turned around and was about to fall into the banyan tree , along the veins of the roots into the ground to escape.

"Go!" It was too late and then quickly, when I heard the girl's coquettish scolding, the black flames on the fingertips seemed to be ordered, and flew out quickly, approaching the brows of the blind, dark, but like It was as if it was going to be burned to death even the big banyan tree.

——Hell Black Lotus.

Zhong Liqing immediately recognized the appearance and name of this ray of flame. Even though her vision was as high as hers, she couldn't help praising the good luck of this neighbor.

Fire is one of the five elements. There are natural fires in heaven and earth, and there are also special and rare fires, such as Samadhi True Fire, Qingli Dan Fire, etc., which are all types with extremely powerful attributes.

This hell black lotus is naturally a kind of strange fire, and it is a very destructive and destructive strange fire. It is one of the highest grades in the strange fire, and it can be placed in the hands of any monk who has a fire-type spiritual root. , are all dream talents.

This weak-looking girl is not simple.

Since this neighbor is working so hard, she, the righteous owner, can't afford to waste any more time.

Zhong Liqing raised her eyebrows, holding a piece of light yellow talisman paper between her fingertips, and looked quietly at the scaly face that had already crawled out of the water with more than half of her body: "Ugly, don't you feel itchy?"

The scaly face naturally couldn't understand what she said, but eagerly pulled its paws and bared its teeth.

The intuition of beasts is much more sensitive than that of humans. It can feel that the aura emanating from the biped standing on the stone table is far inferior to that of the biped with black flames floating on its fingertips. When fighting with the opponent, quickly swallow the one in front of you and turn it into flesh and strength, then it will have more confidence, not to mention running away, even if it is fighting the two-legged insect that makes black fire It's not impossible...

The scaly face's mind is very simple, and it still maintains the most primitive thinking level of beasts. It quickly judged the situation, and it was about to attack Zhong Liqing without saying a word. A piece of pale yellow talisman had already floated over—it seemed to be slow and effortless, but in fact it fell into the pond in the blink of an eye.

Before the scaly face could react, I saw that the water waves in the pool seemed to be on fire, yes, it was really like the water was mixed with kerosene, and when the ignited thing moved, "Stick! "Sparks sprang out all at once, and swept across the entire pool at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The fiery snake came swiftly and violently, opened its mouth and violently bit the half of the scaly body remaining in the water, and when it screamed and struggled to break free and crawled to the shore, it licked its flesh relentlessly. The skin, leaving a smoky burnt black on it, made the already lumpy skin even uglier.

But now is not the time to care about appearance, life and death are at stake, and the scales don't care about attacking the biped that caused it to be burned by the fire. It was a conditioned reflex to flee into the pool—water can extinguish fire, so it is always right to flee into the pool.

If this scale is not a monster, but can understand human speech, and Zhong Liqing is not so indifferent and taciturn, then a science student who is proficient in physics and chemistry, after learning of the scale's plan, will probably kindly To popularize science for it-the reason for extinguishing the flame is never water, but the isolation of cooling and air.

So, instead of escaping from the pool and extinguishing the flames on its body, this scaled face went into the water, which was tantamount to seeking its own death. After all, what the fire talisman attracted was the flammable objects in the pool.

If this scale-faced memory is good enough, it should be able to recall the fish food that Zhong Liqing fed those koi carps by the pond in the earliest days; those were not simple grains, but fire tribulus powder and sweet mustard vines Small crumbs of seeds.

As long as you grab a small handful like a baby's fist, add some igniting letters, and add a little spark, you can burn this whole two-entry house, let alone Zhong Liqing just don't want it. The amount of a food plate was scattered everywhere, most of which were swallowed by those greedy koi, and some of those koi were swallowed whole by scales, that is to say, most of the flammable debris The grains are all in the scaly belly.

The fire talisman is one of the copper-level talismans refined by the talisman masters. Its temperature is slightly higher than that of natural fire. It is cheap and easy to use. It is often used to attack the enemy. The monks of the root used it as a tool for making fire in the wild.

Now, it is the fuse that destroys that scaly face.

As it dived into the water, the fire snake wrapped around it became thicker and thicker, and the temperature was frighteningly high. Not only could you hear the sound of "crackling" scorching flesh and bones, but you could also smell a burnt stench.

Flames rose from the surface of the pool, and within a short while, half of the pool was steamed dry.

Zhong Liqing watched blankly, until the painful wailing on the scales stopped abruptly, and a charred black corpse floated in the half-dried pond, together with countless broiled and blackened or dying brocades wagging their tails. Carp, it looks a bit miserable and desolate.

Zhong Liqing, who had easily eliminated the scaly face, turned her face indifferently, and looked at the neighbor lady who also ended the fight in an instant—the difference was that she was different, even though the other party used a weapon that was stronger than hers. The temperature of the hell black lotus is thousands of times higher, but the range of damage caused is controlled to the minimum. Except for the black ash of the human figure in front of the banyan tree, there is nothing else, not even the leaves and roots are injured. —It is really accurate to the terrible fire control.

Tsk, it's just a pity that the blind body, I wanted to dissect it to see what its structure is, but I didn't expect that this hell black lotus is so overbearing, it was burned to the ground.

Thinking about it, if she hadn't left evidence to tell Zhong Liqing, this neighbor would not be able to keep even a little ashes - inexplicably, she had this feeling, and immediately increased the danger level of this neighbor girl by [-]%.

Just as Zhong Liqing was about to speak to show her master's bearing and etiquette, she saw that the girl, who was as elegant as the moon, spread out the black light on her fingertips, and a simple and mysterious handprint was formed on her hands, which were like beautiful jade under the moonlight. On that banyan tree, it was to save the wronged souls in this yard.

Zhong Liqing frowned, intending to blame this person for meddling in other people's business, if he wasted so much effort, if he attracted the attention of other monks to discover the secret of spiritual energy in this place, it would only cause disputes... But it is not good to turn his face immediately, after all, he I helped her just now—although it wasn’t for free—because of this layer, she couldn’t do the thing of waiting to cross the river and demolish the bridge. It’s not because of her conscience, but because she was impatient to fight again, which delayed her night’s rest , but it is not beautiful.

Since this girl is willing to expend her own spiritual power to save these dead souls, she is kind-hearted. Whether it is superficial or not, she will not hinder her, so let her go.

After making up her mind, she didn't bother the girl who was reciting scriptures silently, and made a few talismans to form a defensive circle to protect the backyard. She was protecting the girl, and then jumped into the semi-dry In the pond, a luminous pearl lit up in his left hand, and a sharp lancet in his right hand, he slashed open the scaly belly without changing his expression...

The author has something to say: as I write, it seems like it’s time to go back to the Zombie Pit. If you are timid, don’t read it at night, although the set time is [-] o’clock in the evening hahahahaha...

I have already let the little angel of rice grain and the little angel of tuning have identified it, it is not too scary, after all, these two are cowards~~

If the little angels feel scared, you can imagine the carp spirit in "Journey to the West", isn't it so stupid and cute? (*^__^*)~~
