Yellow River Craftsman

Chapter 95

"Fox demon?! You mean Wang Dongyu?!"

Professor Ye asked in a daze, he still didn't quite understand the meaning of what I just said.

"Yes! Fox demon! I saw with my own eyes that Wang Dongyu turned into a fox demon!" I said.

"Isn't it?" Gan Hongxin came to the side of Wang Dongyu's body and carefully turned Wang Dongyu's body over.

"Ah!" Gan Hongxin screamed suddenly and fell to the ground.

"What are you doing? Look at how cowardly you are!" Liu Hanhao rolled his eyes, walked over to take a look, and I could clearly hear his gasp.

"Monster... monster..." Gan Hongxin's face was livid, and he hurriedly got up from the ground.

I saw Wang Dongyu lying in a pool of blood. We all knew that he was Wang Dongyu from his body shape and clothing, but his current face was a weird fox face.Just think about it, the combination of a fox-like face and a human body is simply indescribably weird.

Professor Ye frowned: "How did he become like this?"

"I don't know either! When I caught up with him, I found that he had become like this!" I said.

"You killed him?" Professor Ye asked.

I just caught a glimpse of a shark blade on the ground not far away, which was dropped by Wang Dongyu just now, so I said casually: "Yes! Just now he threw me on the ground and wanted to kill me. The shark blade went through his throat!"

I didn't say that Wang Dongyu was killed by Gu Meidi. Since Gu Meidi didn't want everyone to know that she possessed supernatural powers, I had no choice but to cover for her and cover it up for her casually.

"How did Wang Dongyu become a fox? Could it be that he was bitten by a fox corpse? It's really strange!" Liu Hanhao adjusted his glasses.

Professor Ye is also well-informed. He squatted down to take a closer look, and said solemnly: "He is under a curse. If I read correctly, it should be the curse of the fox!"

"Fox Demon Curse? What stuff?" Gan Hongxin asked curiously.

Professor Ye said: "There is a mysterious and ancient spell. People who have been cast by the fox demon spell will turn into a fox in appearance and behavior. No matter what they do, they will not know it. It is a very vicious spell!"

Gu Meidi said: "It is said that one needs to take the whole skin of an adult fox, soak it in the blood of a black dog for three days and three nights, then take it out to dry in the sun every day, absorb the pure yin energy at night, and dry it for seven nights in a row. I can cast a curse!"

"So, Wang Dongyu is also a victim? He was also murdered? Who put the Fox Demon Curse on him?" Gan Hongxin pulled out his knife, swiped it in the air a few times, and stared at us warily.

"What the hell are you doing? Put down the knife!" Liu Hanhao shouted at him.

Gan Hongxin waved the knife: "Don't come here! Damn it, I don't believe anyone now! Who is the murderer who put the fox curse on Wang Dongyu? Who is it? Stand up?"

"I speculate that there is no murderer, it is Wang Dongyu himself who caused the trouble!" Gu Meidi said.

"You caused trouble? Who are you lying to? We have been together all this time, where did he go to cause trouble? If he really caused trouble, we should all be under the Fox Demon Curse, why is he the only one under the evil spirit?" Curse? This must be murder! It must be deliberate murder!" Gan Hongxin shouted emotionally.

After experiencing so many things, everyone's mentality began to become more and more unstable.

"I didn't lie to you!" Gu Meidi said seriously: "Do you still remember when we were in the ancient city of Loulan? We once entered a pagoda and found a female corpse wearing a golden mask at the bottom of the pagoda. Wang Dongyu couldn't wait He ran to take off the golden mask on the face of the female corpse, but he suddenly dropped the mask in fright, saying that he saw a blue-gray fox face, and everyone called him crazy at that time!"

When Gu Meidi said this, I also thought of this matter: "So, at that time, Wang Dongyu fell under the curse of the fox demon?"

Gu Meidi nodded: "Nine times out of ten, the fox curse is hidden under the golden mask. Once the mask is uncovered, it will be tricked! Wang Dongyu was the first to run to uncover the mask, so he was tricked!"

Gan Hongxin slowly put down the knife, he knew this matter best, thinking about it now, he should have lingering fears, thankfully he was not the first person to unmask the female corpse.

"Sorry, I was too impulsive just now!" Gan Hongxin apologized to everyone.

"Adjust your mentality. If you stay here for a long time, your mental state will inevitably be biased!" I said.

I speak from experience on this point.I remember the first time I went down to the tomb with Professor Ye, I stayed in the tomb for a whole day and night and unearthed many ancient relics.After returning home, I had nightmares for more than a week.As soon as he closed his eyes, he found that he was in a dark ancient tomb, surrounded by a gloomy atmosphere of death.I wandered around in the ancient tomb. The ancient tomb is like a huge maze, and I can't find a way out of it.

At first I thought I was bewitched by evil spirits. Later, Professor Ye found out about it and gave me a special psychological counseling session.The human body is exposed to dark and depressing places for a long time, and under the condition of high mental tension, it is easy to lose psychological balance and produce impulsive and manic emotions.

We returned along the way we came, and it was already the next morning when we climbed out of the Devil City. Before long, the hollow shell we entered into the Devil City will be buried by the wind and sand, and everything about the Devil City will be buried by the years. dusty.

Although we succeeded in obtaining the holy water for detoxification this time, we still felt very uncomfortable after sacrificing so many people, and we were all a little depressed.And I still have a sense of guilt, always feeling that these people died because of me.

Gu Meidi comforted me and said: "Everything has two sides. In fact, looking at it from another angle, this operation is not only to obtain holy water, we also destroyed the queen's evil spirit and prevented a catastrophe. Insects can be regarded as a merit!"

"By the way, let me take a look. Has your poison of the underworld flower been lifted?" I turned Gu Meidi away, brushed up her long hair, and found that the red spot on the back of her neck had miraculously disappeared , it seems that holy water really has miraculous effects.

"What about you?" Gu Meidi also asked me to turn around.

"Ah!" she exclaimed.

"What's wrong?" My heartstrings tightened.

"How come your erythema hasn't dissipated, but it's getting more and more, and it's already showing signs of festering!" Gu Meidi said.

"Ah?!" My heart sank suddenly, how could this happen?Why do other people have effects after drinking holy water, but I don't have any effect?no?The time to die from poisoning is not far away, I... Am I going to see the King of Hades?Thinking about it, I became sad. I held Gu Meidi's hand, and said with tears in my eyes: "I don't think I can get out of Lop Nur alive. Please, I will go back to Hezi Village to watch it when I have time. Look at grandpa!"

"Are you explaining the funeral?" Gu Meidi pursed his lips and asked.

I sighed heavily: "That's right! I'm about to die from poison..."

"Hahaha! Hahaha!" Gu Meidi covered his mouth and laughed, which made me baffled.

I frowned and said in displeasure, "What are you laughing at? Why are you like this? I'm a dying person, why don't you have any sympathy? You really want me to die so much?"

Gu Meidi was out of breath laughing, and the others laughed too.

"Cold-blooded! Quite cold-blooded!" I rolled my eyes angrily, feeling extremely sad inside.

Professor Ye said: "Tuobagu, you believe Gu Meidi's words too much, don't you? She is lying to you! The red spot on the back of your neck has long since disappeared!"

"What?! Lied to me?!" The stone in my heart fell to the ground, and I turned my head to stare at Gu Meidi: "Well, you little girl, you dare to play tricks on me, let's see how I deal with you! "

After several days of eating and sleeping in the open air, we finally walked out of Lop Nur and returned to Dunhuang to settle down.

The days of trekking made us physically and mentally exhausted, so we found a hotel and fell asleep for a whole day and night.

After waking up, Gu Meidi dragged me to the street to eat.

"Now I'm so hungry I could swallow a cow!" she said.

We found a noodle restaurant near the hotel, and it was full of diners. The most famous one is Dunhuang Yellow Noodles.Ramen masters sometimes stretch the noodles into long strips, and sometimes twist them into twists. The yellow noodles they make are as thin as a dragon's beard and as long as a golden thread, flexible and durable.The yellow noodles cooked in the pot are bright yellow in color, mixed with heat and eaten, it tastes full of fragrance and unique flavor.

Both of us ate a large bowl of yellow noodles, and even drank up the soup.

All I eat are canned dry food these days, and it’s true that I haven’t eaten such delicious cooked food for a long time.

When returning to the hotel, Gu Meidi bought a few more famous local pao'er oil cakes and ate them with gusto.

"You are such a foodie!" I sighed, to be honest, I was belching after eating such a big bowl of noodles.

"What's the matter? Are you afraid you won't be able to support me in the future?" Gu Meidi asked back, licking the grease stains at the corner of his mouth.

"Ah? I...I..." I didn't know how to respond for a while, my heart was like a deer bumping, is this little girl confessing to me?
Gu Meidi probably felt that the words were a bit too "blind". Just when I didn't know how to speak, she broke off a piece of bubble oil cake and stuffed it into my mouth, then ran to the front with a laugh went.

At that time, the sun was setting, and a round of red sunset was slowly hiding behind the clouds like the shy cheeks of a girl.

The afterglow of the setting sun elongated Gu Meidi's figure, and her long hair fluttered in the evening wind.

Everything in the sky and the earth is like a beautiful landscape painting.

How I wish the picture would freeze at this moment, to quietly appreciate her beauty.

"Tuobagu, why are you in a daze?" Gu Meidi stopped, turned around and waved at me.

I swallowed the pao'er oil cake in my mouth, and then grinned: "Little girl, don't run away, just say what you just said clearly!"
