Shi Yao.
This na is quite scholarly and interesting...
"It’s ’corpse’ as in dead body," the village chief added faintly.
Everyone was startled, then realized what he ant and looked at Sui Yi. Second Master Gong asked, "Was that corpse driving we just saw..."
"It was him," Sui Yi looked towards the path the corpse driver had taken, "Those corpses must have been the ones from the water earlier. When those corpses were jumping up and down, their hair was soaking wet... They must have been retrieved this morning... But the blood on their bodies has been cleaned off, probably due to so taboos."
Her tone was incredibly calm, as if she were talking about a group of wet ducks waddling past her front door...
And the weirdest part is... why can you see so much!
Four or five hundred ters away...
This fog is indeed dense.
But in the end, knowing what Sui Yi was capable of, the others didn’t delve deeper.
Sui Yi ignored them and walked up to the Hou, "I know you understand human speech and have so intelligence. Even though you fell into my hands today, I do not like to harm lives. However, you ca here with malicious intent, and it’s hard to reform you. Even if I kill you, the sin of murder will not fall on ..."
Sui Yi’s words stunned the others, but the Hou, who had been dazed and silly, suddenly had a flash of sharpness in his eyes, fixating on Sui Yi.
Sui Yi was indifferent, looking down at him and said faintly, "Your body contains corpse qi, similar to that found in the small leather pouch carried by the Corpse Hover. It must co from the sa place, at least you know where he went, lead us there."
Hou did not speak, after a mont, his body shifted slightly. Sui Yi raised her eyebrows, her hand moved, and Demon Que unsheathed from her back, a flash of cold light, and the rope broke.
Hou seed terrified of Demon Que and shrank a bit.
Skinny Waist was worried that without the ropes, Hou might take the chance to escape, but seeing Sui Yi so calm and collected, he didn’t intervene.
Strangely enough, Hou seed to understand Sui Yi’s words, squatting on the ground and staring at her for a while. Suddenly, he emitted a low moan and then turned and ran forward...
"Damn, he ran!"
Just as everyone shouted, Hou suddenly stopped, turned around, and gestured towards Sui Yi and the others... That gesture was almost the sa as a human saying to follow him.
Surprised but finding it familiar, the group imdiately followed, but the village chief hesitated, eventually unable to hold back, he said, "Are you really going in? Not to say, but we have always been warned not to get close to the corpses driven by corpse drivers, as most of them are subjected to a secret technique, still retaining so corpse nature. A slight approach of living human energy can trigger their corpse nature, leading to a risky resurrection!"
This talk was eerily unusual, the group didn’t believe it, but they were cautious.
Sui Yi only said, "This Corpse Hover is a disaster... Back then, Earth Tribe left only this person, who not only doesn’t avoid it but cos here to drive corpses, moves mysteriously, and is ruthless and rciless, and he is neighboring your village, aren’t you worried? Today he drives abnormal dead corpses, tomorrow it might be soone you know..."
The village chief’s face changed again and again, his gaze flickering.
"You can go back," Sui Yi turned and followed the Hou.
"Let’s go," the village chief took a deep breath and followed as well.
Second Master Gong’s mouth twitched, catching Gong Yi’s glance, signaling the others to follow too.
Even without Hou leading the way, Sui Yi and the others could roughly track the corpse driving team by following so traces, but the problem was that Poison Dragon Gully was densely packed with dangerous terrains, and there was a real fear of encountering danger or getting lost. Hou, at least, was a native creature...
Soon, the group entered the bottom of the deep gully, only then realizing the dangers within.
Mud pits! There were several covered with turf on top, but underneath was deep, sinking mud!
A mber of the Tang Family almost fell in half, but was promptly pulled out by people nearby, otherwise, he would have sunk in.
"I’ve never really been to the depths of Poison Dragon Gully. Mud pits are just one aspect, look at those plants, they all contain toxins, be careful not to get cut or bitten, otherwise your dicines won’t help," warned a mber of the Miao people.
The group was cautious, covering their skin tightly... Pushing through grass taller than a person... Carefully testing the ground ahead...
It was hard to tell how long it had been, perhaps around noon, when Hou suddenly lay down on the ground, turned his head to Sui Yi, and emitted a low ow.
Like a little cat...
Through the sparse reeds ahead, Sui Yi had already seen a large clearing outside, looking like about seven or eight hundred ters away, there were trees...
She turned to Second Master Gong and gestured, "We’ve arrived."
Second Master Gong nodded, and everyone held their weapons in hand, making as little noise as possible...
Yhan Qingwu had already pushed aside a small patch of grass, took out a miniature telescope, and looked into the distance...
There was a tree, very quiet, but no trace of the Corpse Hover... Yhan Qingwu looked puzzled, curious, where was the corpse driving team?
Others with telescopes also found it strange, could they be in the wrong place?
Was Hou leading them astray?
However, the experienced Mount Mover said, "I think it’s here, this place...sothing isn’t right."
"I don’t see that sothing isn’t right, it’s just the sll of those dead bodies... It’s very strong," Third Lady Yin reminded everyone with a frown.
Very strong...
Sui Yi had already walked out directly.
Second Master Gong was the second to step out, "Co out, the Corpse Hover isn’t here."
His vision was sharp, maybe not as freakish as Sui Yi’s to spot their hair getting wet, but he could still clearly tell if there were people.
A group of people erged from the grass, their group not small in number, reaching twenty, each skilled and well-equipped, fearing no Corpse Hover.
So they weren’t much afraid...
Until they saw Sui Yi, who was walking ahead, suddenly pause her steps.
She drew the Demon Que from her back.
