The years of reselling the haunted house

Page 643

The more I thought about it, the more anxious I became. This time, layers of cold sweat broke out again.

"Baye... where are you?" I remembered the water crow and hurriedly raised my head to call.

Ba Ye was still hovering above the coffin boat, and when he heard my shout, it also fell down from the sky spiritually.

"Baye, hurry to find Jiuye." I yelled at Baye.

Ba Ye quickly flew into the air, then landed quickly, and started flying at a height of about one meter above the water.

It seems that the eighth master was well trained by the ninth master. He can understand human language and speak some simple languages, which can be used at critical moments.

Due to the distance, I can't see the water surface farther away. I hope that the eighth master can find the trace of the ninth master.

Baye spread his wings and started searching in the nearby waters, and he quickly locked on to the target.

Ba Ye started to fly in a large area, and then stayed in one position, and flew around that position a few times, making a chirping sound, which was very urgent.

That is the azimuth at a 45-degree angle to the front right of the bow of our boat, four or five meters away from the boat.

Although I can't see what's going on underwater, I can roughly see a large group of black aquatic plants hidden under the water.

Ba Ye stayed there and kept beeping, he must have found something, most likely he found Jiu Ye's trace.

The water plants are afraid of my dragon subduing wooden sword, but the boat can't move, and I can't go there.

I was so anxious that I scratched my head and wished I could fly over like Master Ba.

By the way, whip.

Master Jiu specially left me a whip for beating ghosts.When the water plants climbed onto the boat just now, the whip was useless because the distance was too close.So at this distance, don't I just use the whip?

I was so anxious that I forgot the sharp weapon around me.

I quickly took the ghost whip and stretched it out.The length of the whip is five or six meters. If it can be hit well, it will be enough to hit the water over there.

It was also the first time for me to use this kind of long whip. I couldn't wait to hold it in my hand, swung it away and threw it towards the water below Baye.

The whip was thrown away, and it went smoothly.

There was a crisp crack, and the whip whistle exploded in the air.

But my whip didn't hit the water, but threw it on the water.Although the whip whistle rang, I failed to hit the target.

Not only that, after the whip was thrown out, it was quickly retracted.

I didn't master the technique of swinging the whip well, so the whip was pulled back and ran straight to my face.

"Ah." I hurried to hide from the whip I had hit, and sat on the boat with a plop, not to mention how embarrassed I was.

It seems that swinging the whip is still a technical job, but Master Jiu actually entrusted me with such a difficult job.

I didn't have time to complain but I didn't have time to think about it, so I hurriedly got up and went to shake the whip again.

At this time, I would rather take a few more whips myself, and I have to work hard to rescue Master Jiu out of the water.

I'm basically sure that Master Jiu must have been trapped in that water.As long as I can break up the piece of aquatic plants, Master Jiu should be able to get out of trouble.Even if I can't hit it right, I can hit the water once out of ten times.

I flicked the whip again and hit it twice more in a row.It's a pity that neither hit the target, but my own arm and leg were hit and kicked back.

Fortunately, I hid my face, otherwise I would really slap myself in the face.

Chapter 1670 Corpse Blood Grass

But after several attempts, I gradually figured out the trick of this whip.In the fourth time, he finally hit the whip accurately on the surface of the water.

With a snap, the whip came to the surface of the water, breaking up the spray.

I could see large clusters of aquatic plants scattered around as if they had encountered a plague god.

Master Jiu's whip for beating ghosts is quite effective, and it takes only one stroke to see the effect.

As the aquatic plants spread out, a string of air bubbles quickly rose from the bottom of the water, and then the water splashed, and Master Jiu popped up from inside.

After getting up, Master Jiu took a few breaths, this time he didn't sink down immediately, but looked around after taking a breath.

"Jiuye, here."

I hurriedly waved to Master Jiu, who quickly swam over from the other side treading the water and turned onto the boat.

The water dripped down his body.

I handed over the towel, Master Jiu waved his hand: "Wine."

I immediately handed over the wine jar again, Master Jiu picked up the wine jar and took a few sips, then let out a long breath, and sat down on the boat.

"Jiuye, are you in trouble?" When Jiuye calmed down, I asked something that was almost nonsense.

"It's a bit troublesome, I'm entangled by the corpse blood grass." Master Jiu responded.

"Deathweed? Are those water plants that look like hair?" I asked.

Lord Jiu nodded: "That's right. These are not ordinary aquatic plants. There are also such plants at the bottom of the river ahead, but very few. Only the Nanguandu waters, especially the Thirteen Ghost Eyes, are so powerful. Corpse blood grass. The reason is that when a corpse passes through other rivers and arrives at Nanguandu, it will be sucked by the water eyes and sink to the bottom of the river. After a long time in the place where the corpse is stored, the river under them This kind of corpse blood grass will grow in the subsoil. Corpse blood grass means the grass that grows in the ground that has been soaked in corpse blood, but it does not mean that there is real corpse blood, it is just a description."

"Corpse Blood Grass, the name makes one's skin crawl. I've seen it before. This grass is really powerful."

When I recall the experience just now, I still have lingering fears.It's hard to imagine what the consequences would be if I didn't have such powerful instruments as the Dragon Subduing Wooden Sword and the Ghost Whip.

"Although there is no real corpse blood seeping into the soil, there are also oils and other secretions secreted from the corpse to irrigate, so those corpse blood grasses are also very evil. They can find some foreign objects that trespass without authorization, such as ships, For example, people and fish diving into the water, etc. There are basically no live fish here, because once any fish enters this water area, they will be entangled by corpse blood grass, and there are a lot of fish bones underneath, countless small ones and large ones There are quite a few."

I nodded: "It's no wonder they entangled our boat. So, it's this corpse blood weed that entangled our boat?"

I thought I found the key to the problem, but Master Jiu shook his head: "The cable is indeed entangled by corpse blood grass, but that's not the key. As I said, what we encountered was a boat hugging corpses. These corpses The blood grass is just an episode. So even if the cable is cut, our ship will still not be able to move forward."

"Is there really a corpse hugging the boat? Master Jiu, have you seen it?"

"Of course. Where there are corpse blood grass, there must be corpses. And it is an ancient corpse that has not decomposed for a long time. The corpse we are looking for is a thousand-year-old corpse, which has a super high attraction. He is attracting people again. There are many centuries-old corpses. Our boat was hugged by a century-old corpse. Now, he is under our boat."

"Ah?" I heard that the century-old corpse was below, and when I shivered, I immediately felt bad.

"Don't worry. My coffin boat is here, and he doesn't dare to come up easily. It's just dragging the boat, and I'll go down after a rest. I've already seen him, just five meters below our boat .”

After listening to Master Jiu's explanation, I finally realized that the corpse-embracing boat we encountered was just a description.It's not that the corpse really embraced the boat with its arms open, but that the corpse was still five or six meters below the water.It's just the resentment of the corpse soaring to the sky, which made our ship unable to move forward.This is not a physical force. If you want to solve it, you can't do it by brute force.

Master Jiu is well-informed and knows how to solve it.But judging from the fact that he still couldn't move the ship after going up and down a few times just now, the difficulty he encountered this time was not small.

However, it can be seen that Master Jiu is definitely a stubborn old man.But anyone with special abilities seems to have a stubbornness when they get older, and a state of mind that will not die until the Yellow River.

Ma Su is like this, Qian Qingfeng is similar, and this Ninth Master is even more so.

After Jiuye finished talking to me, he didn't say any more. He himself had almost had a rest. He stood up and took out a jar from the cabin, took out a white ointment from it, and began to rub it on his chest. Wipe it on the pubic region of the lower abdomen.

The white paste was quickly spread evenly. The strange thing is that it was originally a white substance, but after it was applied to the body, it reflected a light golden light, which made Jiuye's muscular muscles It is particularly conspicuous in the moonlight.

Then Master Jiu asked me to help him smear some on the back of his heart.Then he carefully put the jar back into the cabin.

I reckon this kind of thing should protect Jiuye, and it will be very precious, otherwise Jiuye won't use it when he goes down for the first time.

It was because Master Jiu found that things were a little tricky, so he had to use this treasure.Time was tight, and I didn't have time to ask him in detail.

"Yangzi. It's still the same. Show me those two lights. These lights can guide me and attract other evil things. If you encounter abnormalities, use the whip. The whip was used well just now." Jiu My father told me that I will go into the water again.

I hurriedly stopped him, and handed over my Dragon Subduing Wooden Sword: "Jiu Ye, please take this with you, I tried it, this sword is effective against corpse blood grass."

Because Master Jiu was trapped by the corpse blood grass just now, the water almost didn't come out.That scene was very dangerous. It is estimated that Jiuye might suffocate in one more minute.

"Dragon Wood. Good stuff."

Master Jiu weighed the dragon-subduing wooden sword, praised it, and was not polite. He put the sword away and put it on his body. After that, he took off again and entered the water again with a plop.

Master Jiu's words are still echoing in my ears, that lamp can guide people and attract other evil things.

That is to say, the fact that these two lanterns are on has both advantages and disadvantages for us.

I pulled myself together and stood at the bow of the boat with the ghost whip in hand, guarding the two lights.At the same time, I am also keeping an eye on the situation on board and off the ship.

Chapter 1671 Water Crow Attacks

Those corpse blood weeds, after I cut some of them, did not fade away, and were still entwined under the boat.It's just that they also have thoughts, and they haven't climbed on the boat again during this time.

But everything needs to be prepared. I took the ghost whip and practiced by myself first.

I'm afraid that when the critical moment comes, I won't be able to use the whip well.

"Crack...crack...crack..." The whistle of the whip exploded crisply in the air.

I am getting more and more comfortable with this whip, and I have gradually mastered the rules and techniques.Although it is still not possible to point where to hit, but it is basically the same.But my strength is not controlled enough, I dare not use my full strength, otherwise I will easily hurt myself again.

Fortunately, this whip is a magical weapon, relying on the whip's effect of suppressing evil and eliminating evil spirits.

The sound of the whip and whistle also gave me more courage.I think that the sound of the whip and whistle may also be a kind of deterrence, which will discourage some evil things.

I also really noticed that as the whip whistle sounded, the corpse blood plants also seemed to show signs of receding, getting farther and farther away from the boat.

Thinking about those dead blood plants would give me a headache and nausea. Now that I don't have the Dragon Subduing Wooden Sword, if they get entangled again, I really don't know what to do.

"chachacha..."

Just when I was practicing the ghost whip practice vigorously, there was a burst of chirping from mid-air.

Isn't that the voice of Ba Ye?

I hurried around to look for Eighth Master.

As expected, Ba Ye was not around the coffin boat.

Not long ago, thanks to Ba Ye, he searched for Jiu Ye's traces on the water, and after Jiu Ye came up, Ba Ye has been standing on the boat canopy.

At some point, Eighth Master flew away.We didn't notice it, I guess it might be when Lord Jiu went into the water.

And my attention was all on guarding the lantern, and I didn't notice Ba Ye after Jiu Ye went into the water.

At this time, the voice of the eighth master suddenly came, and I thought of looking for it.

There was no shadow of Eighth Master in the surrounding waters, and the cry came from a farther place.

"Chachacha..." Another series of shouts came.It should be Ba Ye's call, but I seem to have heard more than one bird calling, and there must have been at least a dozen birds in that series of calls.

what happened?

I looked up with the whip in my hand and continued to search.

On the surface of the water where we are, within a radius of ten meters, the black mist in the sky has almost dispersed, but the black mist has been shrouded in places ten meters away.

It's as if a thick black fog has surrounded us, forming a relatively closed space.

I saw Ba Ye flying out of the black mist.

It turned out that this guy really flew outside.

When Ba Ye saw the wind lantern, he rushed directly to our coffin boat.

Seeing Ba Ye come back, I was relieved at first, but who knew that following Ba Ye, several black shadows rushed out of the black mist and rushed down towards our coffin boat.

Sure enough, there were more than one water crow, and those black shadows were birds similar to Baye, and they should be a kind of crow, even with similar calls.

Ba Ye quickly landed on the canopy of the boat, and continued to cry, the sound was a bit miserable.

I just noticed that the feathers on Ba Ye's body were messy, and there was even a little blood.

I immediately understood that Ba Ye was attacked by the same kind.

At least twenty or thirty water crows were seen rushing down from the black mist.They quickly rushed to the sky above the coffin boat.

What's worse, they didn't seem to be just aimed at Baye, but the two wind lanterns seemed to be the target.

They hovered over the bow of the ship all the time, staring straight at the two wind lanterns. Although they haven't flown down yet, they should be a little afraid of me, but I believe they will take action soon.

Could it be that these birds also belong to the evil things Jiu Ye said?

I was nervous for a while, but Ba Ye was standing on the canopy, screaming into the air, his voice was a little hoarse.

The circling birds, after half a minute, found no danger, and began to fall.

As expected, they were coming towards the two lanterns. I gritted my teeth and quickly swung the ghost whip in my hand.

clap clap...

The whip crackled in the air, and although I missed the water crows, I managed to drive them away.

They were frightened, and they flew to higher altitudes one after another, but they still hovered, and none of them left.

The swarm of water crows staring at each other is in the air, and the disgusting corpse blood grass is in the water, and I am only one person, I have to stare at both sides, and I feel at a loss.

"Baye, keep an eye on the water for me, and let me know if something happens, understand?"
