death

Chapter 11 Snake King Pendant

When Mai Xiaorou disappeared, I couldn't help but "thump" in my heart, and my sense of fear suddenly rose several levels.

I wanted to struggle again at this time, but found that my body was no longer in control. The wet "man" tried his best to cover the plastic bag on my face. I was extremely hypoxic and I was losing consciousness.

"Boom! Boom!"

At this moment, two groups of flames suddenly ignited behind the man and woman, and then the two of them screamed and were sucked into the flames, and the two groups of flames also quickly turned into two yellow talismans.

Then it flew towards the river like a butterfly, and I took a look at the river, Mai Xiaorou was still there, she asked me worriedly: "Chen Yu, are you okay!"

"Cough! Cough..."

I coughed a few times and blew away the plastic bag stuck to my face. With nothing to cover my mouth and nose, I began to breathe the air around me wantonly, probably because I was breathing too fast, which made me My lungs feel a little painful, but I can't control that much anymore, I need air, air...

After I took a deep breath for a while, I waved my hand to Mai Xiaorou and said, "If you're a little later, I'll die."

Mai Xiaorou said worriedly: "I'm sorry, I was held back by the Lord of the River just now, and I couldn't take care of you for a while. Fortunately, you are fine!"

I took a few breaths and said: "You don't have to say sorry to me, I couldn't help but call your name, if I don't call your name, the spells you arranged around me will be hidden from that Two dirty things."

When I said this, I realized it, and asked quickly: "By the way, you said just now that you were dragged by the Lord of the River, that is to say, besides the two ghosts you took in just now, there are other ghosts." thing?"

Mai Xiaorou nodded and said, "It was just two young people who went to look for you just now. They should be new ghosts from the two who died in the past two days. The really powerful things are still underwater."

I asked Mai Xiaorou what was underwater.

She said: "Ghost, it's just a powerful ghost, hundreds of times more powerful than the two new ghosts just now!"

Hearing what Mai Xiaorou said, cold sweat broke out on my back. Those two ghosts just now made me powerless to fight back. If it was a ghost hundreds of times more powerful, wouldn't it be my fate to be instantly killed? ?

Seeing that I was starting to get nervous, Mai Xiaorou said: "Chen Yu, don't be afraid, I'm here, and now the two little brats who are in the way have been temporarily taken away by me, and the rest of the big guys don't have the energy to harass you gone."

I smiled wryly, "I hope so!"

At this time, I suddenly had a feeling in my heart that I might suffer for a while, and this feeling became stronger and stronger.

Mai Xiaorou probably felt that the protection measures for me were not enough, so after putting away the two talismans just now, she walked slowly to my side, and then took a jade pendant from her neck and gave it to me.

The jade pendant is prismatic, and a snake is carved around the prismatic jade pendant. The snake is lifelike and spit out letters.

Mai Xiaorou said: "This is the Snake King Pendant. I heard from my grandfather that there is a snake spirit that failed to transform into a dragon. Wearing it can temporarily protect you."

"how about you?"

"I know spells, and the underwater things may not be able to get cheap from me, so I won't be able to use the amulet for the time being."

Hearing what Mai Xiaorou said, I was no longer polite, so I took the Snake King Pendant and held it tightly in my hand.

Mai Xiaorou smiled at me and said, "Wear it close to your chest, the effect will be better."

After speaking, Mai Xiaorou patted the protruding part of her chest twice, which made me imagine that this jade pendant has been worn close to her body since then.

After I put on the jade pendant, Mai Xiaorou went to the river again and said, "You beast, don't think that I can't do anything if you don't come out, you've made a big mistake by entrenched in this river and waiting for an opportunity to harm people. If you come out earlier, you may be able to suffer less when you arrive in the underworld, if you are stubborn, then I will let you die here!"

Mai Xiaorou's words are quite imposing. Now she makes it impossible for me to associate it with the word "coquettish". What kind of person is this Mai Xiaorou? Irregular"?

This is not normal.

When Mai Xiaorou said these words, fluctuations suddenly appeared on the dark water surface, and then a gloomy cold air began to rise from the water. It was only autumn, and when the cold air came up, I felt it directly winter meaning.

I was shivering from the cold, and just when I was about to be unbearable from the cold, the snake king pendant I was wearing on my chest suddenly began to slowly emit a burst of heat, first warming my chest, and then warming my whole body When I woke up, the feeling of winter gradually faded away.

Mai Xiaorou said: "Chen Yu, sit down with your legs crossed, and silently recite the formulas I taught you in your heart, and use your own understanding of the formulas to get luck and breath."

I hasten to do so.

Mai Xiaorou stood there without moving. She looked around and said, "The spells of underwater things should not be very powerful, but his ability to confuse people is a bit strong. Even if I am not careful, I will be tricked. Chen Yu , be careful."

I didn't speak, and I started to recite those formulas silently, whether it is useful or not, at least it can give me temporary peace of mind.

But just as Mai Xiaorou was about to do something, two figures suddenly appeared on the opposite side of the Minxin River. They were wearing blue Taoist robes. At first glance, they thought some ancient costume crew had come out of it.

I took a closer look, it was a man and a woman.

After seeing those two people, Mai Xiaorou suddenly stopped her fingers and took two steps back slowly. I asked her what was wrong, and she leaned into my ear and whispered: "Those two Taoist priests are very powerful!" , If I take too many shots, I am afraid they will know that I am a corpse, and if I am found to be a corpse, I am afraid that there will be trouble."

While Mai Xiaorou was talking to me, the male Taoist priest cupped his hands and said to us, "May I ask who the fellow Taoist opposite is from, and whether he is from my North China branch."

North China Branch?What is that, I can't help but wonder.

Mai Xiaorou hurriedly clasped his hands and replied, "We have no sect and sect, and we are not from the Supernatural Bureau, but casual cultivators."

The male Taoist said "Oh" as if he was a little disappointed and said, "That's it, that fellow Taoist can retire, my junior sister and I have already taken over the case here!"

When he said this, the male Taoist priest was full of pride.

Mai Xiaorou didn't talk nonsense, she came to help me and was about to leave, probably because she was afraid that the other party would find out her identity.

But just as we were about to leave, the male Taoist priest suddenly said: "Wait!"

Mai Xiaorou's hand suddenly trembled. I clearly felt that Mai Xiaorou was scared. This was the first time I saw Mai Xiaorou was scared, and it was still trembling. Although it was only for a moment, it still made me very nervous. be surprised.

"What advice do you have, Fellow Daoist!" Mai Xiaorou asked while trying to control her expression.

The male Taoist quickly smiled and said: "I just want to ask the names of two fellow Taoists. If you two are willing, you can introduce them to the supernatural branch."

Mai Xiaorou hesitated for a moment and said: "My name is Mai Xiaorou, and his name is Chen Yu. My friend just started to practice. I was injured just now. We left first, and I will leave this place to you."

After Mai Xiaorou finished speaking, the male Taoist priest immediately said: "My name is Zhang Rui, and my junior sister's name is Tang Qing. If you two fellow Taoists have anything to do in the future, you can visit us at Tangfu Tea House on Qingyuan Street , when the time comes to tell us our names, someone will welcome you."

At this time, the female Taoist priest who was silent all the time said: "Brother, that's enough, I'm here to file a case today, not to mess with you. I have also encountered casual cultivators before, and I have never seen you so enthusiastic. It’s because the girls are pretty.”

Zhang Rui turned around and smiled at the female Taoist priest: "Junior Sister, don't get me wrong, I just want to recruit some talents for your Tang family, for your sake, besides, I only have you in my heart..."

Before Zhang Rui finished speaking, the female Taoist took out a wooden sword and said, "Save your disgusting words for others. I don't have you in my heart. Hurry up and get down to business. I have an appointment tomorrow!"

Seeing that the two Taoist priests were about to make a move, Mai Xiaorou pulled me away quickly. I wanted to stay and see how the two Taoist priests subdued the evil spirit in the river, but Mai Xiaorou didn't give me this chance. And when she left, she also threw the talisman that had taken in the two little ghosts to the two Taoist priests.

And the female Taoist priest named Tang Qing let out a "huh" after receiving the talisman, as if she had discovered something.

But she didn't come after him.

Soon we returned to Cuidi Chunxiao, and after returning to the room, Mai Xiaorou took a deep breath and said, "It was so dangerous just now."

I asked curiously, "Are those two Taoist priests very powerful?"

Mai Xiaorou said with some apprehension: "If there is only one, I think I can handle it. If there are two, I will definitely lose. The most important thing is that they have a lot of treasures. They should be heirs of a big Taoist school, or they are The dignitaries in the supernatural branch."

I asked Mai Xiaorou what is the supernatural branch.

She shook her head and said: "I don't know too well. I heard from my grandfather before that it is an institution that specializes in dealing with all kinds of supernatural events. There are many capable people in it. I don't know the specific situation very well. Even my grandfather knows about it. Not many."

Mai Xiaorou said she didn't know, and I didn't want to continue asking.

However, I am already interested in those big Taoist sects and the so-called supernatural branch. I didn't expect such a mysterious organization to exist in the world.

After talking to Mai Xiaorou for a few more words, her worry slowly receded, and that coquettish expression appeared on her face again.

I took off the King Snake Pendant on my chest and handed it to Mai Xiaorou, she shook her head and smiled and said, "Keep it, the King Snake Pendant has never reacted on me, but it reacted a little smartly on you today, it seems It's more suitable to wear on you, just treat it as a token of love from me."

This Snake King Pendant was given to me?
