Volume 1: The Origin of Nightmares, Chapter 13: The End of Death (I)
The fire grew louder and louder, and soon the entire office was on fire. Strangely, there was no smoke in the room, despite the dancing flames everywhere. Even the solid mahogany desk, which is the most susceptible to fire in the center of the office, was not damaged at all.
"Shhh
With a miserable wail, the gray air mass that floated in mid-air, and more than twenty humanoid figures were turned into ashes in the raging flames until they disappeared. So just like that, all the resentful spirits in the puppets present were wiped out.
After the resentful spirits were cleared by Ding Xiaofan with thunderous means, the entire office, along with the things in the office, scattered like fireworks, and gradually returned to its original appearance, a vast open-air platform.
Standing on the edge of the platform, Ding Xiaofan still maintained the appearance of a demon, quietly looking at the wreckage scattered all over the place. It turns out that these so-called ghosts or resentful puppets are just toys produced by Jinhua Company.
"Help! Ding Xiaofan, come and save us!" Just as he was about to leave here, Ding Xiaofan's ears suddenly heard the cries for help from Shen Xiaolang and Liu Lixue. They are really trapped here! Thinking in his heart, Ding Xiaofan hurriedly walked in the direction of the sound source.
But at this moment, three figures blocked his way. That's right, among the three figures, in addition to the other two that Ding Xiaofan didn't know, standing in the middle was Mr. Zhang, who had shaken hands with him downstairs before.
"Papapa!" While clapping his hands, Mr. Zhang walked up to Ding Xiaofan with a hypocritical smile and said, "I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it! That contract can make you so strong! It seems that I still underestimate the strength of you as a contractor!"
"Contract, are you the strange uncle in black?!" Hearing Mr. Zhang's words, Ding Xiaofan's face was full of surprise.
"I think you may have misunderstood, I'm not the same as that old immortal. But then again, we met when we were in the Secluded Garden. Twice!" As soon as the words fell, Mr. Zhang, who was originally in a suit and leather shoes, suddenly turned into a dry corpse.
Seeing that Mr. Zhang's body was constantly bleeding green mucus, and he had no eyeballs, and his seven orifices were bleeding, Ding Xiaofan suddenly thought of the Nine Yin Corpse Demon that he and Shen Xiaolang had encountered in the secluded garden.
"You are...", first stunned, and then, Ding Xiaofan laughed wildly, "It's ridiculous! Do you think I'm still afraid of a corpse that doesn't even have a soul?" With that, he raised his index finger and pointed forward gently, and a flame engulfed Mr. Zhang in an instant.
"I thought it was some kind of fierce character, but it turned out to be just a waste. Okay, the old one is settled, it's the turn of the little one! If I guessed correctly, you guys are pretending to be Shen Xiaolang and Liu Lixue downstairs!"
With a sneer, Ding Xiaofan moved the knuckles of his hands and walked towards the two paralyzed faces whose clothes were exactly the same as Shen Xiaolang and Liu Lixue. But before he could take a few steps, he stopped. Because he found that Mr. Zhang, who had become a fire man, could still move!
I could only hear a loud sound of "Peng!", and with Mr. Zhang's fierce wave of his hand, just a breath, there were only a dozen sparks left in the raging flames on his body.
"How is it possible, how can a mere two-hundred-year-old cultivator have such a powerful strength!" Seeing that his attack was disintegrated by a corpse, Ding Xiaofan looked at the unharmed monster in front of him in disbelief.
At this time, Mr. Zhang can only use the word monster to describe it. In the face of this monster that is invulnerable to all laws and invulnerable, even the demonized Ding Xiaofan couldn't help but feel a tremble.
"I think you're the one who laughs. That's right, I am indeed the Nine Yin Corpse Demon that you and Shen Xiaolang met in the Secluded Garden. But you're only half right!" said him, Mr. Zhang, oh no! The Nine Yin Corpse Demon waved his hand at the two paralyzed faces behind him.
At the behest of his master, the two paralyzed faces who had once pretended to be Shen Xiaolang and Liu Lixue immediately launched a stormy attack on Ding Xiaofan.
On this side, Ding Xiaofan was fighting with his paralyzed face. On the other side, the Nine Yin Corpse Demon watched the play while leisurely explaining, "Like you said, I am indeed a corpse demon. But you have all misjudged, not two hundred years, but a thousand years of cultivation!"
"Oh, really, then let me see how powerful your dead bones are that have been hanging for a thousand years!" Ding Xiaofan shouted violently, one in each hand, and at the same time twisted the necks of the fake Shen Xiaolang and the fake Liu Lixue.
Immediately afterwards, Ding Xiaofan, whose eyes were red, rushed towards the Nine Yin Corpse not far away. "Stop him for me. Seeing this, the Nine Yin Corpse Demon raised his left hand slightly, and continuously flicked his index and middle fingers.
Under the control of the two invisible silk threads, the broken necks of the fake Shen Xiaolang and the fake Liu Lixue turned around again, blocking Ding Xiaofan from left to right. "Kill him!" With a quick flick of their fingers, the two of them attacked Ding Xiaofan again.
"Is it a puppet again?" Facing the attack of the two puppets, Ding Xiaofan, who was full of firepower, roared excitedly like a beast, almost frantically dismembering the other party's body made of silicone.
In less than five minutes, the puppet that could barely move just now was broken into pieces alive by Ding Xiaofan. A few drops of blood dripped in pools of blood on the ground, forming a wonderful landscape painting. It's just that the painting is bright red.
Licking the remaining bloodshot on his fingers, Ding Xiaofan realized that the puppet he killed was actually assembled from hollowed-out real corpses with artificial parts such as plastic and silicone.
Looking at the blood and mutilated corpses on the ground, Ding Xiaofan couldn't help but think of Ah Lin who died violently in the garage. "Old monster, your puppet subordinates don't seem to be enough to see!" As he spoke, Ding Xiaofan slowly walked towards the Nine Yin Corpse Demon and snapped his fingers at the same time.
With the sound of snapping fingers, the impostor Shen Xiaolang made his copper coin sword fly out of his pocket with a self-defense sword, and automatically ignited a flame as red as blood. This flame is different from the usual flames, this fire is a hellfire that specializes in burning spirits and spirits.
"Take care of the dead man's bones, this is tailor-made for you!Let's die again with peace of mind!" Coming to the Nine Yin Corpse, Ding Xiaofan roared and raised the burning copper coin sword in his hand, ready to directly split it in half.
And this Nine Yin Corpse has survived for more than a thousand years, and it is naturally extraordinary. Seeing Ding Xiaofan slashing at himself with a copper coin sword attached to the hellfire, the Nine Yin Corpse did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly made a huge black palm print to resist the oncoming attack.
said that it was too late, and the black palm print and the copper coin sword, one black and one red, two extremely domineering forces collided together in an instant.
I could only hear the sound of "boom!", and both the Nine Yin Corpse Demon and Ding Xiaofan were blown upside down by the shock wave generated by the explosion. In addition to this, the violent explosion caused a black smoke to quickly fill the air, which quickly spread.
"Whew!" barely standing firm, Ding Xiaofan immediately relied on the demonic power in his body to blow away the smoke in one breath. But at this time, he found that the Nine Yin Corpse Demon had long since disappeared.
"Huangkou Xiaoer, you are still a little tender. This time, the old man will spare your life for the time being, and the next time you meet you, you will definitely not be merciful again!" Leaving such a sentence, the Nine Yin Corpse that turned into a wisp of black smoke floated out of the office building of Jinhua Co., Ltd. with the wind.
"Damn! next time I must slaughter you old fox with my own hands!ah!" Seeing the Nine Yin corpses fleeing, Ding Xiaofan was so angry that he swung his fist and slammed it on the fence by the rooftop.
Ding Xiaofan's punch was really not light, and he saw that the solid iron pillar on the fence, which was as thick as an adult's arm, was actually blasted into a curved bow by it. However, at this moment, Liu Lixue's angry voice suddenly came from above the iron pillar.
"Bastard, what kind of nerves are you! The old lady is still up there! If I have any long and two short, the old lady will not let you go! What are you doing in a daze? Help me down! Quick!"
Hearing Liu Lixue's scolding that did not match her gender at all, Ding Xiaofan raised his head suspiciously, and looked up along the iron pillar. It's okay not to look at it, but this time, the scene in his eyes suddenly made a blush appear on his miserable white face. It even gets piping hot.
It turned out that about two or three meters on the iron pillar, Liu Lixue, who was wearing only a bra and a pair of underwear, was being tied to it in the posture of a horse. Moreover, because she had been in this position for too long, Liu Lixue's body was all soaked.
The pure white underwear and panties become translucent when they are soaked, and the parts that wrap around them are clearly visible. To get back to the point, under the iron pillar tied to Liu Lixue, more than two dozen white candles were lit and placed in the formation of a gossip array.
In addition, Liu Lixue also has a puppet doll wearing a Qing Dynasty official uniform on top of her head. With the help of demonization's own extraordinary eyesight, Ding Xiaofan was surprised to find that the feet of this puppet doll were actually tied with Liu Lixue's own hair.
Seeing this, Ding Xiaofan didn't think about it, so he prepared to climb the iron pillar and save Liu Lixue, who was tied to it. "Be careful! Don't step on the candles on the ground! Otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable!" At this moment, Shen Xiaolang's voice came from nowhere.
"What's wrong with the candles on the ground?Why can't you step on them?" Hearing this, Ding Xiaofan looked around and asked curiously, "Also, what about you? Why can't I see you?"
"I'm hanging under the guardrail, I can't hold out for long!So save me first, or I'll die if it's too late!" Before Ding Xiaofan finished speaking, he heard Shen Xiaolang's wail under his feet.
Exploring the source of the sound and looking down, he saw Shen Xiaolang who was hanging under the guardrail. His posture is very strange, his right hand and left foot are tied together, and his left hand is holding the concrete surface under the guardrail with only four fingers to support the weight of the whole person.
Not only that, if you look closely, you will find that Shen Xiaolang has a slender fishing line on the wrist of his left hand that he used to hold the cement countertop. The other end of the line is hung on the guardrail.
"Are you still in the mood to watch the drama there, help me up!" shouted hoarsely, Shen Xiaolang's left hand began to tremble continuously due to serious loss of strength. "Okay, I'll save you up!" With that, Ding Xiaofan pulled Shen Xiaolang onto the platform suddenly.
After rescuing Shen Xiaolang, Ding Xiaofan didn't bother to care about the candles lined up on the ground, kicked hard under his feet, and jumped into the air. "Click!" Floating in mid-air, Ding Xiaofan snapped his fingers, and the rope on Liu Lixue's body was automatically untied.
Holding Liu Lixue, who was almost half-naked, Ding Xiaofan fell steadily to the ground. But what he didn't notice was that he accidentally stepped on seven candles.
"It's not good! the candle of the hexagram was extinguished by you!" Seeing this, as soon as he untied the rope on his left foot, Shen Xiaolang couldn't help but exclaim. "What kind of shocking hexagram? What if it is trampled on?" Hearing Shen Xiaolang's words, Ding Xiaofan looked very disdainful.
Hearing this, Shen Xiaolang helplessly explained, "The candles on the ground must be extinguished one by one in the opposite order to the gossip, if the order is wrong, the zombie puppet will wake up immediately!"
However, at this moment, the puppet doll tied to the top of the iron pillar suddenly opened its originally closed eyes. In addition to this, the charm attached to its forehead also fell, and it was not known where it had gone. But in this regard, Ding Xiaofan and others were not aware of it at all.
