Chapter Twenty-Six: Pit Killing

Nine corpses welcome, from the early Spring and Autumn period.

Five steps and a servant, ten steps and a servant, twenty steps and a servant, cut off his neck and hang his head to welcome the master, and the end of the nine corpses is the country of the dead.

This is an extremely ancient and cruel etiquette, which has disappeared since the Tang Dynasty destroyed the surname Zhaowu Jiu.

When my grandfather first told me about this, his face was strange and he said, "If one day you meet the nine corpses to welcome you, don't hesitate, turn around and run, the sooner the better!"

I was still curious and asked, "Is there such a cruel etiquette today?"

"Yes!"

Grandpa nodded affirmatively at that time, and said with a gloomy face: "That is the unique etiquette of a group of guys who claim to be gods, and the nine corpses have never disappeared, but they are not known to the world!"

The first time I saw this smiling corpse, I remembered my grandfather's words, and subconsciously thought that it was a ghost made by people from Qimen.

However, after seeing the blank and confused looks of the ugly old woman and the old man in the straw hat, I was also a little confused.

Isn't the 'self-proclaimed god' guy that Grandpa is referring to the people of Qimen?

The old man in the straw hat and the ugly old woman were shocked, but Li Qian bypassed the smiling corpse at this time and walked towards the sea of flowers.

"It doesn't matter what kind of bullshit nine corpses greet him, if he doesn't run, the ghost thing behind him will chase after him!"

Hearing this, I subconsciously glanced back.

The bald man and the old man with the triangular eyes rushed out of the fork in the road, roaring and running, and I was surprised that they were not killed by the shapeless man.

At the fork in the road, a strange low roar appeared, and a huge shadow emerged.

There is nothing to say, at this time, it is still a dead man's country, and directly followed Li Qian around the smiling corpse and rushed towards the sea of flowers.

As soon as he rushed into the sea of flowers, the huge black shadow arrived in front of the sea of flowers, and just about to step into the sea of flowers, the sea of flowers seemed to be blown by the breeze, and there was a ripple.

"Click......"

A strange cracking sound came from the body of the smiling corpse, and the body of the smiling corpse trembled slightly, and it slowly stood up, blocking the path of the huge black shadow.

It was very strange that the untransformed spirit did not dare to approach the sea of flowers, as if it was afraid of the smiling corpse, and roared irritably at the edge of the sea of flowers, not daring to take a step beyond the thunder pool.

We paused, looking at the scene with some astonishment.

The bald man wiped the sweat from his head, breathed a long sigh of relief, and said with palpitations: "I was almost caught up by this ghost, who is that person? That ghost seems to be a little afraid of that person!"

No one paid attention to him, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the old man with triangular eyes, whose face was pale and sweating, as if he was about to collapse.

The pitch-black handprint on the back of his neck was now larger than just now, occupying most of his neck, as if a big hand was pinching his neck.

At the same time, I also found that the black qi in his seal hall was even stronger than before.

He took out a light blue talisman from his pocket, dipped a little blood from the corner of his mouth, and made a cut on it, which was directly attached to the back of his neck.

"Zila~"

As if something was fried in a hot oil pan, a faint black mist came out from the back of his neck, and the old man with triangular eyes screamed miserably, and his old face was twisted and endured in pain.

After a few breaths, the blue talisman turned into a firelight and disappeared, and the pitch-black palm print on the back of his neck seemed to fade a little.

"Can't die, let's go!" Triangle Eyes said weakly to the old man in the straw hat.

Although I don't want to continue to go deeper into the sea of flowers, there is no way back at this time, so I can only continue to follow them.

After walking for a distance, I thought I would encounter other corpses after the Nine Corpses greeted him, but they never appeared. The unknown is the most frightening, and at this time the vigilance in my heart has been raised to the peak.

"Do you remember those flowers we met over there in Miao Ling back then?"

At this time, the ugly old woman suddenly spoke, looked at the triangular-eyed old man, and said, "I remember, those flowers are all flowers on the other side, and they were burned clean by your talisman!"

The triangular-eyed old man nodded, looked at the sea of flowers around him, and said as if relieved: "Fortunately, this is not that kind of demonic flower, and many people were killed by that kind of hell flower back then!"

Li Qian, who was walking in the front, said at this time: "Although these flowers are not the flowers of the other side, they also belong to a kind of hell flower, called Mandala ......."

She didn't look back, and casually plucked a flower from the side, with an elegant gesture.

At this moment, for some reason, I felt like she was a different person.

After she plucked that flower, the whole sea of flowers changed dramatically.

The originally dark red sea of flowers seemed to have been splashed with a layer of ink suddenly, gradually changing from the previous dark red to black, and the time between just breaths completely turned into pitch black.

The black flowers are extremely enchanting.

"Look, this is the true face of this sea of flowers, is it beautiful?"

Li Qian looked back at us, smiling like a flower, and the smile in her peach blossom eyes was definitely the most charming style I have ever seen.

However, at this time, it feels strange to show such a charming smile, no matter how you look at it.

"What did you do?"

"Bastard, who the hell are you?"

The old man in the straw hat changed his face drastically, roared and roared, and shot directly at Li Qian.

I was closest to Li Qian, and she grabbed me directly and threw a fist-sized bottle at the old man in the straw hat and the others.

"Bang~"

After the bottle exploded in the air, a billowing black mist poured out, and the wind gusted, and several hideous ghosts rushed out of it, and pounced on the old man in the straw hat.

At the same time, from the black mist, more than a dozen huge mice and yellow skins sprang out, their bodies were tattered, but the green light in their eyes was brilliant and terrifying, and they screamed sharply and pounced on the old man in the straw hat.

"Come with me, these flowers are going to eat people!"

After Li Qian said something to me, she directly dragged me and ran forward.

I subconsciously wanted to struggle, but when I saw the abnormal movement of the surrounding flowers, my heart trembled, and I ran wildly with Li Qian.

Under the dark sea of flowers, it seemed that some kind of huge monster was hidden, and a faint roar came from the ground, and the ground trembled slightly.

When the old man in the straw hat was dealing with those ghosts and yellow skins, black rhizomes sprang out of the sea of black flowers, like black poisonous snakes, and gathered around the old man in the straw hat.

Li Qian and I walked quickly through the sea of flowers, and although the dark rhizomes also converged on our side, Li Qian threw some gray powder as she ran. All the flowers and dark rhizomes that were stained with the gray powder withered in an instant, and I didn't know what the hell that gray powder was.

It didn't take long for us to rush out of this sea of flowers, and the sea of flowers behind us was completely crazy, and the black rhizomes rushed into the air, as if woven into a thick wall, constantly squirming.

The old man in the straw hat doesn't know if they will be able to get out of it alive!

At this time, I broke free of Li Qian's hand, looked at her vigilantly, and said in a deep voice, "Who are you?"

She pretended to know nothing about this place before, but after she got to the sea of flowers, she took the initiative to pit the old man in the straw hat, and there was even gray powder to restrain the strange sea of flowers, if she didn't know anything about it, a fool wouldn't believe it.

Why is she so familiar with this place?

Why do you want to kill the old man in the straw hat?
