Chapter 196: Old Man Hengjiang and the Corpse Refining Witch
Fu Yujiang couldn't open his eyes in the strong light, but the scene he just saw was enough for him to understand that once so many fire ships hit the dock, the consequences would be disastrous!
Without caring about his own safety, he hurriedly picked up the eighteen-section Arhat bamboo and stirred it in the water to create a whirlpool to attract the fire ship.
But his efforts were limited after all. He only heard a loud bang and several fire boats exploded on the pier!
This is not a simple fireship, it also contains gunpowder!
"You bastard!" Hearing the screams from the shore, Fu Yujiang was so anxious that he couldn't help but curse.
Flames soared into the sky and spread toward the shore, centered on the newly rebuilt trestle. The scattered burning objects flew farther away, and Jiangdu Pier was once again enveloped in fire!
Just as Fu Yujiang was about to go back to put out the fire, a dark shadow broke into his peripheral vision.
He didn't even look back, and the 18-section Arhat bamboo in his hand flew past like a steel whip!
"Dang——"
His hand was numb from the shock, and he was blocked with a low sweep as fast as the wind.
But what really surprised him was what stopped him——
A Luo Han bamboo just like him!
"Haha, young man, you are very powerful, but you shocked the little old man."
Together!
Fu Yujiang immediately pulled out his hand and pushed the Luo Hanzhu into the water, causing the corpse boat to suddenly accelerate towards the shore, as if it was flying!
"Oh, the response is pretty quick." The uninvited guest praised in a hoarse voice.
They are both corpse collectors, holding eighteen-section Arhat bamboo. Both parties can control the corpse rescue boat, so Fu Yujiang must take the first step to prevent the enemy from occupying the corpse rescue boat!
At the same time, both parties lowered their bodies at the same time——
"Scandium——"
In just an instant, the corpse boat rushed to the shore!
Fu Yujiang and the enemy jumped out of the boat at the same time and got into a fight on the shore.
Corpse fishermen are not skilled in martial arts and only have a set of eight martial arts, which combines spear and stick techniques and is widely circulated in the industry.
Both sides used this set of martial arts, so it was difficult to tell the winner.
"No...this guy has an old voice and a hunched back, but he is totally worthy of a fight! He deliberately tried to trick me to delay time!"
Thinking of this, Fu Yujiang took a step back and shouted: "Who are you! Did you instigate the fire ship just now?"
When the opponent saw this, he also stopped his moves and put the Arhat Bamboo on the ground, while he climbed up and stopped in mid-air.
"If you often walk on the river, you will always fall into the river. With a bamboo pole in your hand, you can swim in the Yangtze River and Yinshui. Boy, do you know who I am?"
The boat song sung by the other party in a hoarse and old voice made Fu Yujiang's heart tremble.
When two corpse collectors meet on the river, they use this boat song to identify each other, prevent their peers from snatching lives, and even exchange information on the river, such as whether a large ship has capsized upstream and where corpses are accumulating.
Each corpse collector will make up a unique boat song for himself to announce his family status. The song the other party just sang is widely circulated among the corpse collectors, and it can be said that everyone knows it.
However, this is not a good reputation, but a bad reputation.
"Old man Hengjiang..."
"Some people do call me that," the man said with a sinister smile. "In the end, I just like to sail across the river, pretending to be a ship with a damaged rudder, tricking other boatmen into rescuing them, and then throwing them into the river.
We were just searching for property from the corpse, but we were given such a bad name. Do you think it is annoying or not?"
Fu Yujiang didn't have time to listen to him brag about his evil deeds. This old man Hengjiang was notorious even in the entire Yinmen. He was also very powerful, and many of his colleagues fell into his hands!
Is he and the demon together?
"Boy, I don't think you have anything valuable on you. Get out of here while the old man is in a good mood." Old Hengjiang said calmly.
"Your corpse boat is pretty good, and you're showing respect to your seniors. Don't feel like you're at a disadvantage, because I'm the only one who takes care of you. If you get caught up with that shrew or a mute, hehe, you won't be able to die happily..."
As he spoke, he suddenly shook his head, just in time to avoid the stabbing Arhat bamboo.
"Why, fishing for corpses is not enough, do you want to be a prey for a while?"
Fu Yujiang sneered and said: "You and I have been walking on the river for more than twenty years. You can't get rid of it with just a few nonsense words - just wait and see!"
……
"Click!"
"Ah——"
Zhang Huanming, who smashed two earthen walls and flew through an entire house, finally hit the ground hard and curled up in pain.
"Boy, it's quite strong."
The zombie that was thrown out slowly crawled through the big hole he made, rubbing his wrists and laughing.
Zhang Huanming spat out a mouthful of blood foam and bounced to the ground, his facial features distorted by the severe pain.
"If I hadn't pinched a protective amulet just now, I would have turned into a meat pie stuck on the wall...
"This guy's stature is far less burly than the walking zombies I encountered before, but his strength is definitely not at the same level... and he can actually talk and seems to have intelligence!
"Master said that if a walking zombie can get a great opportunity, it will have the opportunity to cultivate into a zombie demon or even a higher level zombie... And a generation of Wudang masters died at the hands of a zombie!"
He began to miss the flowers, birds, fish and insects on Wudang Mountain, and at the same time he hated the master who made him go down the mountain to experience.
The witch's voice came from behind the walking corpse: "Young Master, I am becoming more and more fond of you. Leave him intact."
The walking zombie snorted disdainfully: "Can you like this scrawny little thing?"
As it said that, it raised its leg and kicked again, hitting Zhang Huanming right in the abdomen.
But this time, it felt as if it had kicked an iron plate, and the little Taoist's body did not take off!
Zhang Huanming put his hands together, golden light seemed to overflow from his palms, and said:
"The heaven and earth are natural, and the filthy energy is dispersed. The cave is mysterious and bright, and Taiyuan is bright..."
Upon seeing this, the walking zombie hurriedly wanted to retreat, but found that his feet had been tightly bound in place!
"Edict!"
Zhang Huanming's palms suddenly opened and hit the walking corpse on the waist at the same time!
Immediately, a golden light suddenly appeared in his palm, and the walking corpse felt that its internal organs were trembling. If it still felt pain, it would definitely lose its resistance to the pain.
The arm that looked like a walking corpse was smashed down hard, but it was resolved by Zhang Huanming's cloud hand.
But the force binding its legs also relaxed at the same time.
Opportunity! It wanted to spin around and take off its legs, but found that its body no longer obeyed its orders. And what it saw became blurry...
It worked! Zhang Huanming immediately raised his palm to pursue. This time he aimed at the chest and abdomen of the walking corpse, intending to destroy the evil thing at once.
But a gentle force came from the cold corpse, making him feel numb all over.
The demon girl was just watching the show from the side. When she saw her walking corpse suffering a loss, she immediately struck out from behind it, hitting Zhang Huanming indirectly.
"It's worthless, don't you see that this kid has the ability to ward off evil spirits?" the witch scolded.
"Uh..." Zhang Huanming's whole body was so hot that his consciousness was blurred.
What kind of evil skill is this...
"Young gentleman, how is my soft bone strength?" The witch's voice seemed to come from a far away place, "How many candidates for imperial examinations, dandy boys, and country men have been made submissive by my methods.
, and I vowed to be sworn brothers... until I soaked them in medicine and marinated them alive until they were invulnerable, they still thought of me.
