Chapter Six Miduozi
I didn't believe that the master knew the root of the bizarre murder, so I asked him to say first, and the master looked like a wise bead in his grasp and said proudly: "I took a nap just now and the mountain god came to me to dream. This gold mine is his wealth and mortals are not allowed to be involved, so he scared the miners away with a little magical power. If he dares to come again, he will definitely be severely punished. So we can't control this matter. Go back and tell Chen Youyuan, let him believe it or not."
I was stunned: "The mountain god gave you a dream? What does the mountain god look like?"
"The golden armor and red robe, holding a square sky painting halberd, is very powerful. He must be a famous general in ancient times. After his death, the heroic spirit was named the mountain god here." The master was still full of confidence.
I was both angry and funny: "Then will the mountain god control all the miners to eat one person? This is the devil's behavior!"
The master immediately retorted: "That's just your speculation, and this may not be true!"
"Okay, since you don't believe my speculation, then listen to my experience just now..." I said in detail what I just happened, including my confused state, and all my feelings, and the help of the demon fox to me.
The master was stunned and said for a while: "Tell me what the monster looks like again."
I recalled it and said it as thoroughly as possible: "The tallest one is about one meter and two, most of them are only one meter tall, bald head, pointed ears, barefoot, long hands, a little obese, with high bulge on the back, a bit like a hunchback, like a dwarf. However, they have two pairs of fangs, sparse short hairs on most parts of the body, fewer hairs on the face and on the female breasts, obvious male and female characteristics, and some wear torn clothes on their bodies..."
"It's indeed a hunchback!" The master screamed in surprise.
"What did you say?"
"That kind of monster is called 'Miscellaneous Camel', also called 'Low Camel' (the two names are very similar in dialects). It was very common in the past and often encountered on night walks. After the spring sowing, they would use torches to find snails in the rice fields. The newly built ridges will leave their small footprints, and they will even break into the forest guard's home to "borrow pots and pans". But in the past decade, I thought it was dead, but I didn't expect there was a nest here!"
When my master said this, I remembered it. I have heard a lot of stories about Micahn. Until now, people still joke that children who are dressed in bloated clothes are like "low hunches". Micahn can be said to be known to us, but there are very few people who have actually seen them. There have been basically no young people under the age of thirty. My second master, Lao Lin, often goes out to hunt at night, and only sees them a few times in total. When he gets close, he suddenly disappears. He has not seen them at close range. I feel deeply regretful about this.
I actually met a large group of legendary hunchbacks and almost got married with a chapel? I was really a little dizzy.
The master waved his hand excitedly: "It must be their tricks. They like to tease people, like to learn from others, and are particularly good at charming people. If they offend them, they will retaliate in the cruelest way, and the miners must be killed by them."
I asked: "What kind of animals do they belong to? Savage? Monkey? I have never seen any records of this animal in the book."
The master laughed: "They are not animals at all, but monsters born from the spiritual energy of mountains and rivers and barrier energy. The name in the book is "Wang". Have you heard of the monsters and monsters? It's it. Of course you can't find them from the animal system. If you don't believe it, next time you encounter them, you can try it with the Dujin Bridge. It is effective for them. They are both entities and spiritual bodies."
I was a little shocked. There were really ghosts and monsters, and they were so close to me. But before my master said that, I didn't expect that the monster I saw was the long-known Mituizi, and I didn't expect that Mituizi was one of the famous ghosts and monsters.
Suddenly I thought of a serious problem. I was so scared that I even took away their ancient mirrors. Will they take revenge on me? Their ability to confuse people is so terrible.
I took out the ancient mirror and handed it to the master: "Master, look at what this is?"
"Ancient mirror?" The master recognized it at a glance, took it under the lamp to look carefully, and then I had time to take a closer look. It was slightly larger than the palm, and the outer circle was an ancient pattern, dark red, like copper but not copper, without any rust. The center was slightly bulging, grayish-white in color, like some kind of jade, neither transparent nor reflective, and could not be used as a mirror at all. The master flipped to the back, and there was a pattern engraved on it, with clouds above and waves below. A monster broke through the waves, with bird heads and wings, fish belly and tails. The lines were depicted simple but vivid.
The master said hesitantly: "I can't see what era it is. The picture on the back means Kun turns into Peng, which means that Kunpeng's ambition is soaring to the sky. It should be used by a scholar in ancient times to inspire himself on the desk... Well, it contains a strong metal spiritual power. It may be a magic weapon that can be used to set up a formation to control evil spirits from wood. There may be other uses. Where did you find it?
"Finished from the cave of the maze."
The master's face changed: "Go back quickly and don't take their belongings. If you anger them, the consequences will be unimaginable."
I spread my hands: "I'm afraid it's too late. I've scared them so much that I didn't act as their son-in-law. I've offended them a long time ago. Besides, if we want to solve the problem of gold mines, we must solve them."
The master frowned: "They are difficult to kill. If they destroy their physical bodies, they can also turn into spiritual bodies to escape. They can soon form physical bodies. Only by cutting down the trees in their roots and venting the accumulated breath will they slowly disappear."
"I'm sure their roots are near this place. Because the gold mines approach their caves and their roots, they start to harm people. Then we just need to clear the trees nearby and they will be done, and there is no need to worry about them."
The master was still a little hesitant, and I asked, "Can they confuse people during the day?"
"Yes, but the ability may not be as strong as night."
"What method can be used to crack their illusions?"
The master thought for a while: "According to my ancestors' records, you can see through the things they transform by using the water from the snails into your eyes, but I have never tried it and don't know if it works."
"What are you waiting for? We immediately came out of the mountain and informed Chen Youyuan to cut down trees. They wanted people and guns. Everyone had to apply snail water on their eyes and rushed in to kill all the hunchs. Then cut off all the nearby trees. Isn't it going to be solved?
The master wanted to speak but stopped, and finally agreed to my plan, because we didn't need to do anything about this matter, and we could complete the task by giving an idea, so that the Butterfly Help would no longer cause trouble for me. Moreover, the Mihunch is a kind of evil creature that has killed two people, so it is necessary to get rid of them.
The problem is equivalent to solving it, but my master and I were a little depressed, because getting rid of the mysterious camel means that the final primeval forest disappeared, and people like Chen Youyuan will destroy the natural environment more unscrupulously and cause irreversible damage to many people and many creatures, which are something we don’t want to see.
"We only told him the investigation results and the methods of handling them, and we don't interfere." The master added.
This was deeply touching my heart, and of course I agreed. Before dawn, we set off. Master and I were both alert and wary of being confused by the mysterious hunchback. With the rich experience of my master and my agility, I was controlled without any warning before. From this we can see how terrible the magic trick of the mysterious hunchback is. But now I have more guarantees, and the demon fox in my body has been "awakened". It will definitely alert me at the critical moment of life and death.
The awakening of the demon fox is not a real awakening, but just a state that can sense me by chance. It may be like a person who is in a shallow sleep and will be particularly awake instantly when he encounters huge sounds and strong vibrations. So it will only "appear" when I encounter danger or when I enter a special mental state.
"Master, the demon fox told me that I can benefit from practicing the Yin-Yang Art. So can it break away from the seal and become a human in the future?"
"This...it is certain that it will break away from the seal if it continues like this, but I don't know whether it can leave you and become a human being. This is unprecedented." The master looked extremely worried and whispered, "You must be careful of it, if..."
I couldn't help laughing. What's the use of lowering my voice? I can tell everything I can hear. I am the same person now. I don't think the fox will harm me. Maybe it has a little affection for me, so when I was going to have a chapel with the Mihuozi, it was furious and a little jealous. Alas, now two souls share the same body, which is closer than a couple, and it is normal for it to drink some jealousy.
I suddenly had some expectations, hoping that it could become a human being and appear in front of us again, at least we are our closest friends. To make it become a human being, I have to practice harder, and this is good, and I have more motivation to practice.
The scenery along the way was the same as when we came. My master and I were in normal condition and were not harassed by Mihun. The sky gradually became brighter, and Master and I both breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, Mihun was very timid and did not get close to crowded places. They rarely conflicted with others head-on. They all hid in the dark to control people's minds. They probably knew that I was not easy to mess with, so they didn't dare to chase them.
We arrived at Houdi Village at around 5 a.m. The master borrowed the village chief's phone and dialed Chen Youyuan's cell phone. His extremely impatient voice came from it: "What's going on? It's so early..."
"I am Zhou Tan, and I'm a little surprised. There is a group of hijacks near the gold mine. They stole things and they killed people."
"Ah, Mikuhaku?" Chen Youyuan exclaimed. Obviously he also knew what Mikuhaku was, "Then, what should I do now?"
The master said: "You have two choices. First, give up mining gold; second, bring more people and swords and guns, and also bring some fresh snails to kill all the mazes, and then cut off all the trees near their nests..."
Chen Youyuan said: "No problem. I have many people I need, and I have some hunting rifles. I can also borrow a few people from the police station to bring pistols. You can wait for me there."
The master hurriedly said, "This is how I handled this matter for you. The task has been completed. You can do it yourself to kill the hunchback."
"Let me talk after I go over!" Chen Youyuan cut off the call.
Chapter completed!
