Chapter 14

The eyes of the female corpse seem to have a kind of magical power, which makes people fall into deep fear. There seems to be a hallucination in front of my eyes. I always feel that the corners of the female corpse's mouth are slightly raised, as if it is sneering.

When I was dazed, Grandpa Jiang successfully wrapped the rope around the other left leg of the female corpse, and then wanted to pull the female corpse away from the weak water quickly.

But the strange thing is that this female corpse seems to weigh a thousand catties, and Grandpa Jiang and I can't pull it even with all our strength.

Another flash of lightning flashed across the sky, shaking the female corpse's ankles even paler. Looking at the weird scene in front of me, I couldn't help but think of what old man Jiang said to me a few days ago.

He said that there are three types of corpse hunters in Xiangxi and three non-existent ones, and our corpse collectors also have three and three non-recovery corpses.

First, do not pick up "persons" standing upright; second, do not pick up dead bodies in thunderstorms; third, do not pick up the same dead body if it fails to be picked up three times.

These three are the iron rules for corpse hunters, but we are going against the sky now.

"Grandpa Jiang, what should we do now?"

"What can I do, work harder!" Mr. Jiang's face was flushed, and he looked even more ferocious. He had a deep shadow on the female corpse in his heart, and he seemed to be more flustered than me at the moment.

When I was at a stalemate, I had an idea, took a handful of cinnabar from my pocket and sprinkled it on the surrounding water. The red cinnabar was like a dye, dyeing the river around the female corpse red.

Unexpectedly, after a few seconds, the female corpse was pulled!

Grandpa Jiang and I didn't dare to hesitate at all, hung the female corpse on the boat, rowed back desperately, and sailed away from the weird waters in a short while.

I breathed a sigh of relief, and Grandpa Jiang said to me happily: "Longsheng, you really deserve to be Zhao Banxian's child. Did you sprinkle cinnabar just now?"

"Yes, cinnabar is collected from the veins of the essence of the sun and the moon. Because it absorbs the righteousness of the world, it has a very strong magnetic field of yang. I was also a blind cat and killed a mouse just now. I didn't expect it to temporarily change the feng shui number in this water area. surgery." I said excitedly, but soon couldn't laugh again.

I thought that the signs of Grandpa Jiang's death would disappear after successfully catching the female corpse, but when I looked back, the shackles behind him became shorter, and the dead female corpse turned into that ghost dragon king again!

My heart skipped a beat, I looked down and saw that the female corpse was still there, but at some point there was a black hand, tightly pulling the rope around the female corpse's left foot!

"Changsheng, it's...it's the Ghost Dragon King!" Mr. Jiang shouted in shock.

A flash of lightning flashed by, and the Ghost Dragon King gradually emerged from the water. His body was tall, with a pair of horns growing on his head, and his whole body was covered with a layer of hard armor like scales. At first glance, he really thought he was the Dragon King in the temple.

The ghost dragon king's strange eyes suddenly burst into a blood-red light, and he stretched out his hand to tear off the rope on the female corpse's feet and grab her back.

But in the flash, the big red rooster finally came in handy, and it croaked at the evil Ghost Dragon King.

The fierce light in the ghost dragon king's eyes suddenly weakened a bit, and he let go of his hand in fear. Seeing the opportunity, I hurriedly drew the last stroke on the paper man's face with the painting soul pen, eyes!

The two boy paper figurines seemed to come alive, and what they saw when they opened their eyes was the vicious Ghost Dragon King.

I stretched out my hand and pushed them, and the paper figurines fell into the water. Although the paper figurines I pierced were afraid of fire, they were not afraid of river water.Because what I use is the wood from the south of the mountain that is just to the sun, and the best leather, that is, the paper that does not melt when exposed to water.

The ghost dragon king thought that the paper figurines were coming to deal with him, so he stretched out his sharp claws and pierced the chest of one of the paper figurines, which hit my chest.

My ability is far inferior to that of my adoptive father. The paper figurines I made look lifelike, but I can’t manipulate them at will like my adoptive father. I can only make them "come alive" temporarily.

After paper dolls have souls, they most want to get rid of the fate of being burned and destroyed, so they will desperately attack people who are hostile to them.

Seeing that the paper figurines temporarily held the ghost dragon king back, I paddled vigorously with Mr. Jiang, and the water behind me churned, presumably the pair of paper figurines and the ghost dragon king were fighting underwater.

"Changsheng, don't worry, we will definitely be able to retrieve this corpse, the fog ahead will gradually clear up, we will go back..." Grandpa Jiang said out of breath.

I nodded, forced a smile, I couldn't let go of my heart, because the omen of Mr. Jiang's death has never disappeared...

Sure enough, not long after, my worry became a reality. When I turned around, a stream of warm blood splashed on my face!
