Urban Pirates

Chapter 167 This is what I want

"Don't worry, nothing will happen. When the time comes, he will be tied up and unable to move, so he won't be able to attack you."

"I want another way!" Chu Tianluo dodged to avoid Ma Tiezhu's attack, and then stared at Liao Zhengxuan with wide eyes.

Liao Zhengxuan frowned, thought for a while and then said: "Then you have to lure him over anyway, so that the net can cover him, and you can just avoid it in time. Apart from this, I can't think of anything else right now." method."

In fact, Chu Tianluo was very sure that he would overturn the Ma Tiezhu and tie it up, but in this way, it would definitely not be a good thing if his skills were exposed, so he could only promise Liao Zhengxuan to follow that method.

Seven or eight men hurriedly opened the two large nets, and then divided them into two groups, preparing to let the hemp iron pillar hit one net, tie it up quickly, and then cover it with another net, so that For one thing, even if the first net fails, it can interfere with him, and then the second net can cover him smoothly.

Liao Zhengxuan conveyed the villagers' wishes to Chu Tianluo, and Chu Tianluo nodded again and again: "Just do that!"

"You have to react quickly! Otherwise, you will be tied to the iron pillar!" Liao Zhengxuan shouted at him.

After a while, those villagers set up the nets. They are all very experienced hunters. Although the number of hunts is less now, they will not be ambiguous if they actually do it. They have caught wild boars like this before. Let the hounds drive the wild boars to run over, and then cover the wild boars with a homemade large net. When they struggle, they will be tied tightly by the net. Sometimes they can catch several at a time. Of course, it was not Ma Tiezhu who hit them The kind of wild boar that most people will never see in their lifetime.

Chu Tianluo saw that the animal trap had been set up, so he picked up a piece of wooden stick on the ground, turned around and slapped Ma Tiezhu's head fiercely. He was so angry that he screamed, became mad, and sped up towards Chu Tianluo. Chu Tianluo was very satisfied seeing the other party like this: this effect is what he wants.

Ma Tiezhu followed closely behind Chu Tianluo's buttocks, reaching out several times and almost reaching the back of Chu Tianluo's head.

Suddenly, Chu Tianluo slowed down, and Ma Tiezhu rushed up with a stride, raised his hand and punched him on the back, who knew that Chu Tianluo got short and squatted down at that moment , and then quickly rolled to the side on the spot. Due to the effect of inertia, Ma Tiezhu leaned forward before he could stop his hand.

At this moment, a large net came towards him, Ma Tiezhu seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then another large net was thrown on him from above by the villagers. The thick rope on the edge quickly spun around him, binding the hemp iron pillar into a big rice dumpling in just a few seconds.

Ma Tiezhu fell to the ground, still twisting his body vigorously, but the net was getting tighter and tighter, and he had no other choice but to twist a few times, everyone was relieved at once, after tossing for a long time, all It was almost noon, and then they calmed down. The rest of the people began to approach slowly, looking at Ma Tiezhu with their brows furrowed.

On weekdays, this young man is very popular with everyone. Although he has a bad temper, he is very kind. He often sends some prey he has caught to each family. He is also very enthusiastic towards all the villagers, so no matter men, women, old or young in the village, he likes it very much. He, now that he has become like this, there is no one who does not feel distressed.

"What's wrong with him?" a villager asked.

, No one can answer, everyone does not understand what is going on.

Seeing her son like this, Ma Tiezhu's mother fainted after crying a few words. Everyone hurriedly carried her to the bed of a nearby family, pinched him and gave her warm water to let her recover a bit. gas.

“嗷……吼！嘎嘎嘎……吱吱……”

Ma Tiezhu no longer looked like a person, but like a humanoid monster. Although he was trapped, he wanted to break free all the time, and his throat kept making all kinds of sounds that made the scalp numb. .

A villager looked at it for a long time, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "He looks like this...could it be..."

It's just that he finished speaking halfway and didn't continue. Others heard it anxiously and hurriedly urged: "You have finished speaking!"

The villager faltered and said: "Could it be... some kind of grass ghost?"

When everyone heard his words, their faces changed drastically. Many people showed panic expressions, but some people shook their heads, and the village chief immediately reprimanded: "Where are there any idiots! This kind of evil People’s things have long been lost! The villagers of Guxi Village have always cared for and cared for each other, how could someone use grass ghosts to harm people!”

"Yes, yes, you are right." The villager who had guessed it was poison was reprimanded by the village chief and dared not say anything more.

Liao Zhengxuan and Chu Tianluo both froze for a moment, subconsciously preparing to ask something, but seeing the expression of the village chief, it was difficult to speak again.

But Chu Tianluo was very curious about what a grass ghost is, and he should know from Liao Zhengxuan's appearance, so he pulled Liao Zhengxuan aside and asked him in a low voice: "What is a grass ghost?"

Liao Zhengxuan took a peek at the village chief who was talking to the villagers, and then quietly said to Chu Tianluo: "Grass ghost, it's Gu poison, you know Gu poison, right?"

"So it's this thing..." Chu Tianluo was thoughtful.

He does know about poisonous witchcraft. Just like expelling corpses, envoy poisoning is also an ancient and mysterious witchcraft, but expelling corpses is a white witchcraft, while poisoning is an evil black witchcraft. Wider, it mainly exists in various parts of southern China and among some ethnic minorities.

The people in Guxi Village should be mainly Miao people, because the Miao people in western Hunan have five surnames: Wu, Long, Ma, Shi, and Liao, and almost all the people in the village have these surnames.

It is said that the Miao people's Gu is terrible, but this thing only exists in legends. Chu Tianluo guessed that it is probably the same as the corpse, but it is too mysterious and rumored to be miraculous.

"By the way, are you from here?" Chu Tianluo asked suddenly, because he just remembered that Liao Zhengxuan's surname is also one of the five surnames of the Miao nationality in Xiangxi.

Liao Zhengxuan smiled: "I didn't even know there was such a village before I came here."

Chu Tianluo looked at the Ma Tie Zhu who was still twisting on the ground and said casually, "Do you think this is Gu poison?"

Liao Zhengxuan was taken aback: "Why, do you believe it?"

Chu Tianluo shook his head: "I don't know much about Gu poison, but since there are corpses here, maybe there really is Gu poison."

"I don't think... that's possible..." Liao Zhengxuan said, "There is no such thing as Gu poison, which has been proven by science. Besides, it's just such a small village. Our ancestors have lived here for generations. Whether there is Gu poison or not, everyone knows in their hearts that even if there is such a harmful thing, it will be destroyed. Didn’t you see the village chief so excited? He is an authentic If the Miao people in Dao say they don’t exist, then there must be none.”

Chu Tianluo nodded: "That's true."

Although Chu Tianluo said that, he still had doubts, because he seemed to have seen worms in Ma Tiezhu's blood earlier, in order to prove his judgment, he scanned Ma Tiezhu again with his induction force, but It seemed that he didn't see anything unusual, which made Chu Tianluo always feel that something was wrong.

At this time, the doctor in the village exclaimed. The doctor is a man in his 50s. The doctors in this place are not like the ones in the towns. The doctors here are all the skills of healing diseases and injuries handed down from their ancestors, and they are all collected from the mountains. With traditional Chinese medicine, he can cure all illnesses under normal circumstances, even if he is broken or seriously injured, he can still be treated, so the people in the village respect him very much.

At this time, the old Chinese doctor called out, so everyone hurriedly looked over, and saw the old Chinese doctor sitting slumped on the ground, and Ma Tiezhu was madly rolling, probably the old Chinese doctor was hit by him.

The villagers hurried over to help the old doctor and asked him if he saw anything.

The old Chinese doctor shook his head: "His body doesn't seem to have any problems, he can even be said to be very healthy, except for the extremely fast heartbeat, as far as I can see... Could it be that he has been greatly stimulated and has mental problems... "

"Then what should we do?"

"Yeah, what should I do? His mother and younger siblings all need him to support... Why is Tie Zhu... oh..."

The villagers started talking again.

The old Chinese doctor waved his hand: "I don't know the details, I've never seen him in such a situation, I think it's better to ask the Long family brothers to send Tie Zhu outside to have a look... Put him in the house first, now it's getting hotter and hotter outside, don't hurt his body, I'll give him some medicine later, first heal the skin trauma, and then give him some peace of mind boil the medicine for him."

After hearing what he said, the villagers prepared to carry Ma Tiezhu into the house, but seeing him twist so hard for a while, they didn't know where to start. Suddenly, Chu Tianluo discovered a problem. When the trap was trapped, it was attached to the longbow and the quiver. There was a small hole in the quiver, which just exposed the small half of an arrow, and the arrow looked extremely sharp. The net rope was scraped on it, and the trap net at that place had been scraped open.

At this moment, Ma Tiezhu probably saw people around him, and suddenly went crazy again. Before Chu Tianluo rushed over, the scratched hole in the animal trap was torn and expanded. , Ma Tiezhu broke free.

The sudden situation frightened the villagers. Everyone saw Ma Tiezhu's madness and ran away immediately, so no one wanted to be hurt by him. The man who was punched by him just now He was carried away, and according to the examination by the old Chinese doctor, it was said that the ribs were all broken, but fortunately, no internal organs were punctured, otherwise it would be a big trouble.

After breaking free from the shackles, Ma Tiezhu screamed up to the sky, and everyone was too scared to avoid him, but he didn't catch up, but he used his longbow tightly, ran out of the yard, and ran towards the forest behind the house .
