Chapter 341 Is this how you recognize your relatives?
Yan Jing breathed a sigh of relief and was about to drive the boat closer when he saw Gu Chen gesturing to stop him. When he looked up, he saw the female ghost's head rolling down and sinking into the Yin River, rising and falling several times, and slowly floating up.
"If I use my magical power, I will definitely kill someone, but in this strange and sinister river, the evil spirit is everywhere, and the matter of life and death is likely to be seriously affected."
Gu Chen explained. He looked around and saw all kinds of auras of gloom, evil, death and evil in the air. No other strange creatures were in sight. The female ghost who could live here was probably immortal like the fallen fairies in the outside world, and it would be difficult to kill her with one blow.
Sure enough, the female ghost's head floated up, with black hair hanging down on her head. The Yin River was surging, but she was like an immortal black pine tree standing in the middle of the river. Her black hair kept tangling and condensing into the body of the female ghost. However, after this battle, the female ghost's fierceness and fierceness were greatly reduced, and even the red evil in her eyes faded, leaving only a pair of black eyes.
Gu Chen observed carefully. Now that he thinks about it, the female ghost did not make any moves at first and seemed to have some rationality. It was only when her yang energy was aroused and her black eyes turned red that she lost her composure, leaving only a violent aura and a mad killing spree.
The black river overturned, the breath rolled, the female ghost opened her eyes, and her complete body appeared in front of Gu Chen, but she had lost half of her clothes. He could even see the narrow tear that the female ghost tore from her abdomen.
The female ghost slowly took a step forward, the Yin River was surging, and the aura on her body suddenly became agitated. The female ghost slowly stretched out a hand. The hand was extremely shriveled, and turbid water kept flowing on it. As she moved, strands of blood climbed onto her fingertips, and her aura became more violent.
Gu Chen and Yan Jing were on guard, but the female ghost did not move. She just stared at Gu Chen with her eyes, her mouth slightly open, but she could not make any human sound, only strange whimpers.
A flash of red appeared in her eyes, as if they were about to turn into red eyes. The ghost girl's body trembled, and she stepped back at the last moment, retracted her arms, and took a step back, as if isolating the breath of the two groups of people. The strange phenomenon on the ghost girl's body slowly faded away.
She stared at Gu Chen again and again with her lifeless black pupils, put her hands back into her sleeves, stepped back on the waves step by step, and finally, turned around, jumped into the Yin River, and disappeared.
"What's going on? Don't fight anymore?"
Yan Jing looked at the strange scene, feeling somewhat confused. A battle started and ended inexplicably. He couldn't help but look at Gu Chen. If he had to explain the reason, it was probably because of him.
Gu Chen recalled the crack in the ghost girl's abdomen, and his mind was filled with thoughts. Fragments of his father and uncles' past words came to his mind. In the past three years, he had also tried to find out about his own life experience, but he had no other thoughts, just a thought. As all kinds of information came together, a bold idea suddenly popped up.
"That person, probably... I mean possibly, should be my biological mother."
Looking at Yan Jing, who was horrified and slowly retreated but had no way to retreat in the paper boat, Gu Chen shook his head: "I'm just guessing. I had this thought for no reason. It's probably intuition! I don't know much about my life experience. I have to ask my father for the details."
"Your father is still alive!?"
Yan Jing was shocked again. What kind of god could have such a presence around Brother Gu? Then he felt something was wrong: "No, Brother Gu, that's not what I meant. I meant where your father is now. Why haven't you told me before?"
He thought back to everything in Longdu. He had never heard that Gu Chen had any relatives alive, but there was a woman who was always by his side.
Gu Chen shook his head: "It's okay, I know what you want to say. My father is indeed still alive, and I got some words about my life story from him." In the past few years, Gu Chen has also understood the lonely evil spirit in himself. It can be said that he can destroy a village and a city. Although it is due to the indiscriminate attacks of the fallen immortals, he estimates that his luck also plays a big role. If there was only Dragon City left in the world, he would have wanted to find a place in the deep mountains and old forests to make a living.
Yan Jing thought about the figure of the female ghost just now. It was easy for Gu Chen to deal with it because he was strong enough. He called himself and others. I am afraid that he would just have to wait for the corpses to be collected in the first round. Such a powerful weird thing was the biological mother of Brother Gu. Then his father...
As he was thinking, he muttered: "I have to say, your father is really a hero among men..."
Before he finished speaking, Yan Jing was covered by Gu Chen's mouth: "Brother Yan, my father...he is a little..."
Gu Chen didn't know how to describe it halfway through his words: "Some things are best not to be said. My father is quite...you know." He shrugged.
Although Yan Jing didn't know how Gu Chen's father could hear what he said, he nodded subconsciously when he saw Gu Chen was so serious.
The next second, his face changed, and he took out a black talisman in his hand, then took out a bowl, turned it over and over, and the bowl was filled with clear water. His fingers trembled, and the black talisman on his fingertips burned, turned into black ash and fell into the bowl. Yan Jing raised his head and drank the bowl of talisman water mixed with black ash.
After drinking the magic water, Yan Jing's stomach churned a few times. He suddenly fell on his back and vomited continuously, vomiting out a large pool of filthy stuff mixed with countless flying insects. At the same time, a faint buzzing sound was heard and then stopped abruptly.
After vomiting for a long time, Yan Jing wiped his mouth, still frightened: "I have been traveling all the way, and there has been no disturbance. Seeing that the treasure banknote paper man on the boat has not made any unusual movements, I thought that no evil creatures had been provoked. I didn't expect that I would still be tricked."
He thought back to what had happened just now. A sophisticated person like him already knew that words can cause trouble. Even if he was familiar with Gu Chen, he would not act or speak like that.
"People who are infected by the mind-destroying insects are usually unaware of it. They only have some subtle changes in their temperament. The insects use people as nests and lay eggs. The insects live in the nests and eat the flesh and blood, leaving only a piece of human skin and head. However, they walk normally. Only when the eggs mature and suck the brain will they break through the skin and flesh. At that time, the person who is infected will be unable to save himself and can only turn into a pile of flying insects."
Yan Jing patted his chest and said, "This bug has long been extinct in the mortal world. I didn't expect that there are still some left in this Yin River. If I hadn't read a few books and knew more, I'm afraid that when I return to Dragon City, there will be another storm."
Gu Chen nodded. An old man in the family is like a treasure. Although Yan Jing is not tall, he has rich experience, otherwise he would not have asked Li Jiufeng to send him to cross the river with him.
He turned his head and saw that the paper boat had been floating with the wind for several hours. He didn't know how long it had been. Now there was no wind here, so perhaps it had arrived.
Gu Chen jumped high up. At the end of his sight, he could see a corner of the land. The Yin River turned here, and the source was right there!
"Let's go. It looks like our journey is about to end. Let's search as soon as possible to prevent any accidents from happening in Dragon City."
Yan Jing nodded, and the two of them immediately encouraged the wind and landed on the beach.
