We nervously followed the row of weak footprints, fearing that the footprints would suddenly stop and we would see a dead body.
Fortunately, my worries were unnecessary. After chasing for a long time, I finally caught up with him in front of a mountain wall and saw a thin figure huddled in the crack of the mountain wall. When the flashlight shone on him, he was so scared that he started crying, covered his head and curled up, shaking constantly.
We couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. It was great that the child was fine. Pippi looked only about ten years old. His nose and face were swollen, his down jacket was scratched in several places, and his eyebrows and head were covered with white snow. Seeing the child in such a mess, we both felt distressed, and Shen Bing hurried over.
"Is it Pipi? Don't be afraid, we are your parents and friends."
At this moment, I suddenly felt a cold breath surging in front of me. I was shocked. Could the mountain demon use the child as bait to lure us into a trap? I quickly grabbed Shen Bing, stepped back, and whispered to her, "Let me do it!"
He took out the rush grass, chanted a spell, and walked into the crevice. As soon as he reached the crevice, the cold air rushed towards him like a tide. At this moment, the grass burst out, and the grass leaves stretched straight forward like chicken blood. The yin energy suddenly subsided and shrank back into the crevice, scared away by the rush grass.
"Don't come in, collect the rush quickly!" A woman's voice came from beside the child.
Shen Bing and I were shocked when we heard the voice. Damn it, it was that bitch Ruyu. Why did she come here? Did she collude with the mountain demon to lure us in? This is a problem. She is holding the child as a threat, which is really a headache for us.
I put the rush back into the vase and said coldly, "Don't touch the child, or you will know the consequences."
Rush can easily deal with the twelve transformations of the monsters, not to mention a wild ghost. Since I got this thing, I was afraid that I would lose it if I carried it with me, so I buried it in the store when I went back to Shangcheng Town to help Wang Zijun lose his soul. This time when I went back, I felt that it was very difficult to deal with the zombies, so I took this treasure with me. Unexpectedly, if it weren't for this thing, Shen Bing might have lost her face, and this dead woman would not have let her escape in one round.
"I won't touch him. I'll leave right away. I hope you can bring the child back safely."
The dead woman's tone was full of pleading, which surprised us. The damn evil ghost could change his nature and not harm people but protect them. It felt like a fairy tale!
But after thinking about it, I vaguely guessed a result and sneered, "This child is the son who starved to death in your previous life, right?"
"Ah, you...how did you know that?" The dead woman sounded particularly surprised.
Shen Bing said proudly: "We found his past..."
When I heard she was going to tell the truth, I was so scared that I quickly reached out to cover her mouth and said, "Why would an evil ghost suddenly be so kind to a child? It's only necessary to ask, unless he is her relative from her past life. And your husband from your past life has reported to the underworld, who else could it be except your son from your past life?"
"You also know about my husband in my previous life?" The dead woman was even more surprised, but she never dared to reveal her true identity, probably because she was afraid of scaring the child.
I nodded and said with a sarcastic smile: "Nonsense, I don't know if I can explain it so clearly. I have already found out everything about your husband in your previous life and told you, and you have met him again, so you should at least give him the reward, right?" Then I stretched out my hand.
"You have no contribution at all to our meeting, and this damn guy had already met me a long time ago, so there's no need for you to take credit for it!" The dead woman's tone became increasingly cold as she said this.
"That has nothing to do with me. I just want to meet the needs of the customers. This mission is completed. Here are the two ghost teeth!" I said, thinking about how to catch the dead woman. If I use rushes, I'm afraid her soul will be scattered. She can't die yet. I want to get clues about the traitor in the underworld from her. This is also the main purpose of coming to Gansu.
"Why waste your time talking to her? Just use the light..."
I quickly reached out and blocked Shen Bing's mouth again. Auntie, you only want to make the world chaotic. Others don't know that I use Tongtian rush. The main reason I didn't bring it out last time was that I was afraid that someone would know and target it. This thing is one of the three taboo accessories. I don't know how many people are thinking about it, but it is a legendary treasure. Many people have never seen it, so if I don't tell others, others won't know what it is.
"Wuwu... Why don't you let me speak again?" Shen Bing pulled my hand away and asked with a glare.
"As long as she gives us the ghost tooth, we will let her go." I said and winked at her, thinking to myself, you girl, why don't you use your brain and just kill her directly, how can we find clues about the underworld, and what is our purpose here
Shen Bing didn't seem to understand what I meant immediately, and looked confused, but fortunately she didn't say anything.
"Ghost fangs... Okay, I'll give them to you, but not today. As long as you bring this child home safely, I'll give you four!" The bitch hesitated for a moment, but finally compromised for Pippi.
We saw Pippi hear someone talking around him, but he couldn't see anyone. He was so scared that he buried his head on the ground and didn't dare to cry loudly. The child was cold and scared, and was surrounded by ghosts, so he was very likely to get sick. So I said to the dead woman, "Okay, tie this rope around your wrist."
I opened my Yin-Yang eyes first, took out a piece of red rope and burned it, chanted two spells and scattered the ashes over. Under the Yin-Yang eyes, the ashes faintly flashed the original red rope and flew to Ru Yu. The red rope will become a ghost rope after burning, and after the spell is cast, it will become a ghost-binding rope. Once tied around the wrist, it will never fall off unless I chant a spell to break it, and I can summon her at any time.
The dead woman's face turned pale. She was an old ghost, how could she not understand these things. Once the red string is tied, her future fate will be at my mercy.
"Don't do that. I promise I won't go back on my word this time. How about we go somewhere else, not in front of the child? I'll give you my teeth..."
I shook my head: "No, I just want you to tie the rope, otherwise our deal is off the table, and I will kill you right now!"
"You are so cruel!" the bitch said gritting her teeth.
Just as he was about to catch the rope, a sudden gust of wind blew, sweeping up a large piece of snow that danced wildly in the air, instantly covering the crevice in the mountain tightly.
“Please don’t...ah...” The dead woman inside suddenly screamed, and then snowflakes slowly fell to the ground, and Pipi disappeared!
The dead woman was lying on the ground, spitting out black blood, but she looked up at me, hurriedly picked up the rope from the ground and tied it around her wrist, begging me: "Please save Pipi, he was taken away by the Snow God..."
