Flame red

When the completely invisible bullet passed by Mu Yu, she was stunned for a moment, then she bent down deftly, looked at the soldiers who were slowly circling around with their waists low, and jumped into the river without hesitation .

The field of vision was suddenly covered by darkness, and in this darkness, indistinct gunshots could be heard faintly, followed by the cat's neighing.

There seemed to be chaos on the shore, the row of soldiers attracted by Mu Yu was shooting around indiscriminately, Mu Yu floated up from the water, and a cat that was shot flew head-on, hitting her on the bridge of the nose, burning hotly It hurts.

Mu Yu pulled the cat down and found that there was no wound on the other person's body, but he twitched a few times and then lost his breath.

She wasn't surprised, after all, she knew a long time ago that even ghosts are not all death projections that are out of touch with the real world, but another form of existence that can truly cause harm.

The group of cats chasing after them seemed to have clashed with the soldiers, and Mu Yu who fell into the water was just left behind.Without any hesitation, she immediately swam forward.

After calling Yanhong just now, the golden spot visibly stopped and moved, and splashes of water rose up and down.After finally getting close, Mu Yu found that it was as expected by his intuition, the golden color was Yanhong.Unlike the people I saw before, his body was not outlined by any orange red, but a faint golden light was exuding, and his face was still delicate.

In this gray and white, despite the magma-like dazzling crowd, she found that all she could see clearly was the red face.

A long time ago, Mu Yu thought that Yanhong was very interesting.But this kind of fun is not based on a bright personality, but she finds that she cares about each other more and more instinctively.

As soon as he grabbed the child's arm, a scrawny face appeared in front of Mu Yu in an instant, with his mouth open and hissing.

She was so frightened that she stretched out her hand and slapped that face, then her feet tightened and she was dragged underwater.Mu Yu kicked hard, as if she had stepped on something furry. She opened her eyes in the water and looked, and found that there were two spiky fish swimming in the not deep river bottom, surrounding them. It seems to be waiting for the time to hunt.

Wrapped around Mu Yu's leg is a hairy hand, which seems to be covered with water plants and moss.She recognized the bony face, slender in a mass of black mist of hair.

Mu Yu knew what it was.In the memory that was about to be forgotten, someone vaguely told her that this kind of thing was a water ghost.

But now this water ghost is holding Mu Yu with one hand and Yan Hong with the other, sinking to the bottom of the river, and the two fishes surrounding it are gradually approaching.

The person who told Mu Yu that it was a water ghost did not tell her how to get rid of the control of this kind of thing, and now there seems to be no way except to struggle wildly.

Although she has good motor nerves, it is obvious that the water ghost is stronger. After tossing and tossing on the mud and sand at the bottom of the river for a long time, she couldn't break free. Mu Yu gradually felt that her consciousness was drifting due to lack of oxygen.

It is actually not uncommon for water ghosts to reincarnate people. After all, there are introductions in various film and television works and novels.

But there are probably only a handful of people who have actually seen it.

Mu Yu quickly thought about what to do. If he couldn't find a way to deal with it while he was awake, he probably would have to be buried here with her, let alone dragging Yan Hong up.

There was a strange giggling sound in his head, Mu Yu thought he had an auditory hallucination, but after thinking about it carefully, he remembered that the voices of ghosts and evildoers had never been heard with his ears.

At this moment, Yan Hong who was also pulled into the water by her side suddenly struggled violently, kicking around blindly like an angry fox.Mu Yu, who was not far away from her, was the first to be beaten and confused.

While being surprised, he suddenly saw Yan Hong rolling nimbly in the water, facing the water ghost and rushing towards it.Mu Yu watched helplessly as the child grabbed Shui Gui's scrawny face, opened his mouth and bit the opponent's throat.

A burst of pale blisters rose up, Mu Yu looked shocked and disgusted as Yan Hong was biting the water ghost, and the water ghost let out a long sigh, but broke free a few times, and let go of Mu Yu's hand .

Yan Hong and the water ghost rolled a few laps at the bottom of the river, Mu Yu was afraid that he would be lost if he walked too far, so he hurriedly leaned over.The water ghost was completely suppressed, lost to Yanhong, rolled a few laps and finally broke free, then sprinted into the mud and sand.

The two thorny fish seemed to be frightened by the accident, and fled away one after another.But Yan Hong seemed to be possessed by a demon, one of them leaped forward and rushed after one of them.

Mu Yu was finally sure that the child was definitely possessed by something again, so he grabbed her by the ankle before the other party left.Yan Hong, who was not ready yet, stopped for a moment when she was pulled, but Mu Yu knew that once she reacted, she would lose her grip.

So seizing the momentary pause, Mu Yu rushed over directly, choked Yan Hong, and hugged her tightly.

Yan Hong struggled symbolically a few times, but it seemed that she felt a little uncomfortable after being choked, and was finally dragged out of the water by Mu Yu.

The gunshots on the water continued, and when Mu Yu climbed onto the river bank, he found many dead cats lying around, without any blood flow, which was very strange.

She thought it was just the right time, the cat and the soldiers were fighting each other hard, so she took advantage of this opportunity to run away.

But as soon as this thought came to her mind, she suddenly felt Yan Hong in her arms turn around and directly press herself on the ground.Mu Yu was startled, and just about to push her away, the child stretched out his hand and pulled her face forcefully, and immediately got close to her.

——The taste of water ghost is a bit salty.

Although Mu Yu doesn't like things that are too sweet, it doesn't mean that as long as they are salty, he can happily accept them.Especially when thinking of Yan Hong biting the throat of the water ghost just now, he felt a sense of vomiting pouring out of his stomach.

She was choked by the salty smell, and her mind became a little dull, but Yan Hong directly pried open Mu Yu's teeth, and her warm tongue slipped in.

Mu Yu, who was completely dazed before, was so frightened that he instantly sobered up. After biting hard, he immediately felt a burst of blood dripping from his mouth to his throat, as hot as if he was drunk.

When Yan Hong straightened up, the tip of her tongue was still dripping with dark liquid, which seemed to be blood.But Mu Yu can't distinguish the color now, he can only judge from the sense of taste that it is probably blood.

Surprisingly a little sweet.

The child's eyes were slack, and then the corner of his mouth suddenly evoked a very strange arc.

A gunshot exploded in Mu Yu's ear, followed by the sound of footsteps approaching quickly.Yan Hong raised her head and looked in the direction where the sound came from, and finally suddenly jumped high, at least as high as a floor, and then threw herself at a soldier approaching with a gun, throwing him to the ground.

Mu Yu thought that Yan Hong was going to bite on it, or do something.But unexpectedly, the other party did nothing, just jumped up after throwing the soldier down, and fled to the woods not far away.

She immediately got up, and immediately followed, after all, according to Yan Hong's weird behavior now, Mu Yu knew that if she lost it, it would be difficult to find her back.

After running a few steps, he suddenly felt a pain in his shoulder, as if he had been shot by a bullet.Mu Yu paused, but she didn't feel her flesh burst open, it was just a sudden sharp pain that made her face slightly stiff.

A group of cats ran towards the woods from Mu Yu's feet, and it seemed that they were also going to find Yan Hong.She didn't dare to procrastinate, and ran into the woods without a gunshot.

There is an overturned stone statue outside the forest. It looks like a cat holding a lantern, but it has no face. I don't know what it means.

Mu Yu ran directly into the woods, and found that it looked dense and lush from the outside, but when he came in, he found that most of the trees inside were dead, and the fallen leaves were piled up all over the ground, which was sparse and desolate.There is no warm color, and it is estimated that there is no life in it.

The surrounding air gradually cooled down.

She ran forward for a while, and when she saw the fiery red and golden footprints, she followed decisively.There was a lot of fog inside, and even when the sun was shining brightly in autumn, it could blur the surroundings.

Mu Yu found that he seemed to have some impressions of this forest, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

Running straight forward, I came to an abandoned country road. At the turn, there was a fire sign, and a large black piece fell from it. I don't know what it was.

Mu Yu subconsciously took out his phone and looked at it, and found that the phone turned off automatically after soaking in the water for a while.She wiped it and turned it on again, only to hear the sound of a branch being trampled not far away.

Looking back, a golden figure flashed into the woods further away.

She immediately put the phone back in her pocket and chased after him.

In fact, Mu Yu also knew that it might be more convenient for the police to deal with it at such a time, but thinking about Yan Hong's behavior towards the water ghost and himself before, he felt that the child would be treated as a mental patient and sent to the hospital by then.

Later, she thought of calling Master Lu to ask Master Lu, but she remembered that she hadn't seen him since she was discharged from the hospital. It seemed that she had returned to her hometown to recuperate, so it was not good to disturb him at this time.

Besides, those cats don't think so much like Mu Yu, they won't let go after chasing Yan Hong.

She ran along the woods with that little gold, but she couldn't tell the direction. She didn't know how far she ran, and suddenly found a canvas shoe thrown in the fallen leaves.Mu Yu recognized Yan Hong's shoes.

Take off your shoes if you disagree.She picked it up, murmured in her heart, and continued to chase. The surrounding fog gradually became thicker. The abandoned country road was like a deliberately elongated seal, shining directly into the depths of the dense fog.

Mu Yu seemed to have a vague feeling that there was something inside, but he was not sure.After running for a while, I finally saw Yan Hong, surrounded by cats on a big rock, squatting there threateningly looking at the densely packed cats around.

And those cats' bright eyes were like lanterns, watching her quietly, Yan Hong seemed to be agitated by such staring, and her face was full of anger.

Mu Yu didn't dare to get too close, and hid not far away to watch the situation.After all, no matter whether it is Yanhong or a cat, they will never be friendly.

Yan Hong was barefoot as expected, but what was surprising was that the child's feet, which were dirty from running among the fallen leaves, turned out to be as red as scalded.

Mu Yu looked not far away, and in the thick fog, he vaguely saw two residential houses without any light or life.

She shivered suddenly, she didn't know the reason, but felt that the feeling of those two houses was extraordinarily strange in another sense.

Even at the moment Mu Yu felt that if Yan Hong escaped there, he would definitely not chase after her again.

What should I do?

She thought quickly, those cats seemed to be waiting for something, and Yan Hong looked more impatient.Mu Yu reached out to touch his pocket, and found two mobile phones and the piece of purple jade.

Mu Yu took a closer look at the piece of jade, and this time, in the ball of goose yellow, he vaguely saw a few words-like things, which disappeared in the blink of an eye.

She sighed, and pulled Ziyu into her hands bit by bit.

Yanhong's mobile phone is still working, Mu Yu first clicked on his mobile phone a few times, then found his own number on Yanhong's mobile phone, and pressed the dial button.

At the same time, she threw her mobile phone away.

A burst of gunshots exploded in the silent fog.

Both Mao Mao and Yan Hong were startled, and looked towards the place where the sound came from, tensing their nerves.And Mu Yu took the opportunity to rush out, turned over and jumped onto the rock, and when Yan Hong just realized it, he slapped the purple jade in his hand to her chest.

She's just taking a gamble.

Mu Yu could recognize those characters that he vaguely saw before. In the past, grandma would write them on yellow talismans and give them to others.If I remember correctly, it should play a role in eliminating disasters and diseases.

But it's been too long, and Mu Yu also forgot.Up to now, I can only be a dead horse as a living horse doctor, and I will fight everything to create a new world.

She was lucky, and this time was no exception.

A child's cry sounded in his head, and then Yan Hong twitched all over, and fell down limply.Mu Yu snatched her into his arms, turned his head and saw that the cats around were all bristling with fur, grinning and neighing.

The twin pupils shining brightly like lanterns made Mu Yu also start to feel upset.

She frowned and narrowed her eyes coldly.

"roll."

Her voice was so low that it was indistinguishable from all the whispers and hisses in her head, even Mu Yu herself was startled.

The cats froze for a moment, and for some reason they backed away a little bit, staring straight at her, as if they thought what kind of monster Mu Yu would turn into in the next second.

In the thick fog around, after the phone was automatically hung up, the gunshots also stopped, and suddenly fell into silence again.

Mu Yu suddenly remembered that his grandmother had told him before - don't talk when the fog is thick outside the town.

because.

"...will attract the demons and monsters in the mountains."

It was okay when I didn't think about it, but now that I think about it, I suddenly feel that the surrounding fog is a few degrees colder.Mu Yu hurriedly looked around, he couldn't even see the shadows of nearby trees clearly in the whiteness.

The cats backed away slowly, then suddenly they all looked at a certain place, and then scattered in the opposite direction the next second.There was no sound when they left, and even the sound of falling leaves not far away could be heard clearly.

Mu Yu originally wanted to leave with those cats, but just after moving a bit, he heard the sound of his sneakers rubbing against the rocks, which was almost scary, and at the same time, the temperature of the mist dropped a few degrees.

It is clearly only the beginning of autumn, but the temperature is like winter.Mu Yu was still wet, and gradually began to tremble in such a low temperature environment.

She breathed slowly, the grayness in front of her eyes dissipated little by little, the fallen leaves on the ground gradually turned yellow, and the moss on the rocks was also clearly visible.

The golden color on Yanhong's body faded, and Mu Yu's world gradually began to become clear, but this kind of clarity was not what she needed now. On the contrary, when the air cooled down, she knew that something was approaching her, and being able to see the other person's appearance was easier than finding it. It is a little more important for the color that the field of view should have.

But she couldn't see anything.

This colorful world where you can't see anything makes Mu Yu feel more and more uneasy.

At this time, she also needed Yanhong more and more.However, the child is now sleeping in Mu Yu's arms as if dead, without any sign of waking up.

——I can’t help it, if I can’t see it now, I don’t know what to do.

Mu Yu took a deep breath and held his breath.Then he gritted his teeth, threw Yan Hong onto his back, jumped off the rock, and flew in the same direction as when he came back.Anyway, her luck has always been good.

The air behind him seemed to flow, forming gusts of cold wind.Mu Yu didn't dare to turn his head and knew that he wouldn't see anything when he turned his head.

She gradually remembered why there were so many cats in that town.Because cats can see ghosts and ghosts in the mountains, people who lived there in the past needed such eyes to judge good and bad luck. As for the girl that cats fell in love with, it was actually because the girl was possessed by monsters in the mountains. The cat will just take her away.

I don't know when it will be spread beyond recognition, and even become such a tourist attraction.But no one knows that in the seemingly peaceful town, there are many innocent souls waiting to die for them.

If Yanhong hadn't been rescued by Mu Yu in time, those cats who found her would have killed her in some way that is still unknown today.

Mu Yu knows many secrets in this small town.

Now she gradually remembered, although it was still vague, but at least, Mu Yu thought that he was at least remembering something crucial.

— She was born in this place.
