The apprentice always wants to kill me

Chapter 39

The strange man lying outside the house seemed to be awakened by the movement in the house, and rushed in randomly while barking his teeth and waving his claws while screaming "Aoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo"

Du Zhong dodged slightly, and saw him bump into the bed, then fell to the ground with a thud, and then remained motionless.

The man on the couch raised his body tremblingly, and turned his head lightly, as if trying to see what fell on the ground just now, but it is estimated that his pupils covered in dead gray really couldn't see clearly, and there was still a smile on his face. With a cheerful expression, he muttered about Chengxian.

When Du Zhong looked at him, he remembered his ghostly appearance again, and felt a kind of empathy.After slowly taking a deep breath, he turned around and was about to leave, but the man became agitated as soon as he took two steps, and almost fell off the couch.

It seems that in the last part of his life, he was holding on to the "envoy" in a sweet dream and never let go.

Who wants to be like this?Du Zhong couldn't bear it, so he stopped, and after thinking for a while, he took a step forward, and said to the frail human: "I am an emissary, and I am here to pick you up to become an immortal. But when I came, I forgot to bring you the immortal clothes." Yi, you wait here first, I will come back to pick you up when I get it."

The person on the couch sighed contentedly after hearing this, and stopped making noises, lay down obediently, and slowly closed his eyes.

Although Du Zhong felt sorry for him, he could clearly see that he was hopeless, and he would not take out any pills to prolong his life.

The most he can do is to help him find out who is harming them, that's all.

Du Zhong stretched out his hand to wipe his chin, and finally took a deep look at the thin and inhuman figure in the room, endured the discomfort in his heart, turned and left without looking back.

Xiaobai only said that he saw someone go in, but he didn't know any more details, so Du Zhong walked quickly through the dark alley, looking around to search for clues.

After a while, however, he came to the end of the alley, which turned out to be a dead end.

Du Zhong stretched out his hand to touch the wall, felt it carefully for a moment, and realized that it was not a trick, but a real wall.

He subconsciously retracted his hands into his sleeves to grab something, but found nothing, only to realize that Gu Qingli was not in his sleeves now.

Du Zhong pursed his lips and turned around, walked towards the nearest door, cautiously pushed the door open, probed in and took a look, it was an empty room.

There was a musty smell in the air, and there were cobwebs everywhere. With the airflow brought by him pushing the door, it swayed from side to side, and it has been uninhabited for an unknown period of time.

He followed the same pattern and pushed open three doors in succession before he finally saw some signs of people.

It was the dead bones of the owner of the house, scattered scattered on the ground.

Du Zhong's eyesight was excellent, and he could see unusual marks on the dry bone at a glance.He walked in and closed the door, and went to examine it carefully.

The scattered dry bones are mottled, with animal tooth marks and scratches from something. It seems that death is not easy.

Du Zhong lifted the hem of his clothes and squatted down, picked up a thigh bone and weighed it in his hand, it was so light that even the bone marrow had been sucked dry.

He stood up and glanced at the couch, only to see a crumpled piece of skin of an unknown creature on the couch, Du Zhong looked carefully and then his eyes became fixed.

The dark yellow has no hair, but has clear limbs. It is human skin, probably peeled off from the man on the ground.

Holding his breath, he stepped forward and gently opened a corner, only to see that a hole had been dug out on the couch, leading to the ground. Under the couch was a small pit similar to a cellar.

At this time, two thin and young boys who looked young were huddled inside and shivering. Du Zhong took a look and saw that they were mortals.Although they are also skinny, they have a clear mind, a complete soul, and there is still a way to survive.

The removal of the human skin on the top of their heads obviously startled them. The two teenagers trembled and their teeth rattled.

The dead skin is separated from the living air, and they seem to be avoiding something.Seeing how frightened they were, Du Zhong asked softly, "What are you doing here?"

The two teenagers waited for a long time before one of them asked tremblingly, "You... aren't here to eat us?"

Du Zhong smiled and said nothing, the boy said again: "They are about to come out, you should hide quickly..."

"Who?"

"Immortals..." the young man mumbled, "Immortals can eat people."

Du Zhong just wanted to ask where the immortal was, when he suddenly heard the sound of chickens and dogs jumping outside.The two teenagers trembled, and invited them friendly: "Why don't you hide in with us first?"

"No, I'll go out and have a look first." Du Zhong shook his head politely rejecting the boy's kindness, covered the human skin back, stroked it, then turned and walked back to the door of the house, opened the door and took a look outside.

At this time, a group of demons danced wildly outside, and several skinny people who were already out of shape ran out crazily, shouting something incessantly.

A white mist spread from one end of the alley, and the laughter of children "giggling" and the soft ringing of copper bells came from the air.

The group of lunatics became even more excited, and ran over with their teeth and claws.

Du Zhong took out a breath-holding talisman and patted it on his body, wrinkled his nose looking outside.

The whole alley is full of evil spirits, almost overflowing.

The place where the white mist passed was silent, and the lunatics fell silent for some reason.

After a while, the white mist was approaching, Du Zhong didn't dare to be tough, immediately closed the door and went back to the couch, opened the human skin and said to the human inside: "Let me go."

The two teenagers gave him a space, Du Zhong immediately tidied up the human skin after getting down, and also took out two breath-holding charms and patted the boy next to him.

After doing all this, I heard the door of the house being pushed open with a "squeak", and something giggled and sneaked into the house.

The two teenagers were pale at this time, and after a soft whimper, they hugged each other tremblingly, and closed their eyes tightly, as if they were waiting to die.When Du Zhong saw it, he stretched out his hand to caress one person's back a few times, trying to calm their emotions.

The boy felt it, looked up at him, trembling and dared not make a sound, Du Zhong stopped looking at him, and listened carefully to the movement outside.

Although the human skin and the breathing talisman blocked the popularity, the thing still seemed to be aware of it, lingering around in the room.

Probably the residents in this alley have turned into living skeletons, and the aura of healthy people like them is particularly attractive.

There was more than one thing listening to the sound in this room. They made a sound similar to a dog sniffing, and after turning around the room a few times, they slowly locked the bed and stopped making strange noises.

Du Zhong clenched three spells tightly in his hands, and breathed out on them.At this time, the human skin on the top of the head was suddenly lifted, revealing a somewhat ferocious and strange human face.

This little monster has a hideous and weird appearance, and the bones on its face are all distorted.He has a big mouth full of tiny fangs, and a pair of pointed fiery red ears on top of his head.

His eyeballs are all black with no white eyeballs, and the arcs of his eyes are exaggerated, and he looks like he is laughing strangely.

It looks like a half-human fox face.

Du Zhong quickly handed the charm up, and the little monster immediately stretched out its claws, opened its big mouth that almost reached the ears, and stuffed the charm in, then turned and ran away.

There was arguing outside, as if they were trying to snatch the three charms, and they rushed out of the hut noisily after a while.

This talisman absorbed the breath that Du Zhong exhaled just now, and was regarded as a living person by the group of little monsters, but they didn't notice the three real people.

"It's okay, get up." Du Zhong's heart was beating wildly, and he stood up slowly, staring at the knocked open door and frowning.

There is such a strong evil spirit in this alley, it must be a demon chaos.But if it's just a simple demon chaos, why is there an enchantment at the entrance of the alley?Who set it up?Shouldn't it be normal for the big monster in charge to let the little monsters out to slaughter the city?

Could it be the enchantment set up by the real fairy gate in this city?But if they knew about it, why would they allow a group of monsters to pretend to be immortals?

But these are not what Du Zhong is most concerned about at this time. He repeatedly thought about what Xiaobai said. The elder sister who has been missing all the time, pretending to be the ancestor of the immortal, isn't it the big monster who is causing trouble?

What is Xiaobai?Du Zhong felt a little uneasy in his heart. Before, he subconsciously believed in Gu Qingli when he looked confident, but what if Xiaobai was also a monster who only caused trouble?

Although they signed a blood contract, if he devoured Gu Qingli first with ulterior motives, even if he broke the contract, he wouldn't be able to die, right?

Du Zhong felt uneasy, and quickly said to the two teenagers: "You are now wearing the charm I gave you, so they won't be able to smell you. Hurry up now, you will be safe when you leave the alley."

The teenagers nodded, one of them got off the couch and was about to leave, and the other said, "Bring father!"

They picked up the piece of human skin, gathered together and put it on their bodies, and stumbled towards the outside.After Du Zhong glanced at it, he also walked out of the house quickly.

At this time, the fog had almost dissipated, and the alley was silent, without laughter or chaotic shouts.

There were several skinny people lying on the ground, and the demon cultivators plundered the alley, making them even more deficient in energy, but they still didn't die.

Du Zhong tapped his toes and quickly swept outwards, the breeze from the flapping sleeves disturbed those people, and he could faintly hear someone behind him muttering nonsense about becoming a fairy.

This distorted and misguided longing and longing can kill people invisible.
