CHAPTER XVI
When I got closer, I found that the eight stone pillars that were more than one person thick seemed to be surrounded by a layer of static electricity.
From time to time, purple, gold, and silver sparks burst out from the surface of the pillar, smashing black dots on the ground, invisibly forming a circle of forbidden areas two meters away from the perimeter.
In addition, there is also a row of half-human-high warning signs erected on the ground five meters away from the center of the eight pillars, "The high spiritual power defense area ahead, it is forbidden to enter during the period when it is not open, please bring your pass to enter after opening, otherwise you will bear the consequences." ”
Looks like this is it.
She took a deep breath, suppressed the fear in her heart, and walked forward step by step.
Suddenly, Hao Yile's mobile phone rang, and she hesitated for a moment when she was about to fall, and then stepped forward more firmly.
Does she have any other choice but to die together?
She stepped over the row of warning signs and was about to continue walking forward when a hand landed on her shoulder.
It was the young man who was wearing a trendy brand and had been standing next to him listening to the song just now, his thick eyebrows frowned, and he asked her, "What do you want to do?"
Hao Yile slapped his hand away, not wanting to pay attention to him, but the things on her back suddenly swelled, like a puddle of boiling water, constantly surging under the skin.
The boy's expression darkened, and he unzipped her and ripped off her sports jacket as something burst open on her back.
Countless whiskers gushed out with the sweet smell of blood.
"Sorry, your call is not answered at the moment......"
There was a busy sound on the phone, Xia Yitong put down the phone and hung up the call to Hao Yile.
She continued to look at the walnut that became more and more weird the more she looked at it, and suddenly remembered that when she saw Zuo Yuming for the first time on the bell tower that day, he seemed to have a ball in his hand.
Could it be this walnut in his hand at that time? The more he thought about it, the more strange he felt.
At that moment, the metal pendant on her chest popped out of her bosom, beating up and down in the air like a butterfly with wings ready to fly.
The communicator sent her a communication reminder in the middle of the night for the first time, and Xia Yitong hurriedly pulled out the communicator from her ear.
"Summer Eyes ......"
It was the voice of white punishment.
"In. ”
But after she answered him, Bai Xing suddenly fell silent.
In silence, Xia Yitong had a strange feeling, as if something very important had happened, and this incident made Bai Xing, who was accustomed to giving orders directly to her, hesitate.
"You come to Jinmingchi now, and I will find someone to pick you up by the lake. ”
"Okay. She agreed neatly, telling herself that since she couldn't figure out what this strange feeling was, she didn't need to ask more, just go and see.
She turned over and got out of bed to get dressed, but Bai Xing did not hang up, and the long silence made Xia Yitong feel that he was hesitating and then spoke to her again.
"And ......"
He said two words and stopped, which made her wonder and a little impatient, what can't she say in one breath?
"What's wrong?" she couldn't help but ask.
"Be mentally prepared, Hao Yile is here. ”
At the same time as his voice fell, he hurriedly cut off the communication, as if he was afraid that Xia Yitong would ask something again.
After the sound of the white punishment disappeared, the room fell into a deathly silence again, only the wall clock in the living room ticked in a voice that seemed to be amplified several times in the silence, and she felt that something bad had happened, although she didn't know what it was, but it made her feel flustered for no reason.
At this time, at the entrance of the demon world, there were many people surrounded by the inner and outer three layers.
Seeing that the opening time of five o'clock was getting closer and closer, some uninformed people stood outside the cordon and inquired anxiously.
"What's wrong? Are there any monsters hitting the pillars again?"
"No, I heard that there were sores on the human face. ”
"Human face sores, that parasitic monster that survived with the help of the human body in ancient times?"
"Isn't it, I heard that he has to change his body every once in a while, which is equivalent to killing a person, so he was killed, but it's not like he's been dead for hundreds of years......"
"That's right, I also learned this lesson in my elementary school textbook, originally the Qishu Pavilion thought that it had to survive in order to survive, and planned to use the blood of the half-demon to shape a body of its own, but it still kept killing people while waiting, and then it was killed. This story tells us never to repay virtue with resentment. ”
"Hey, the blood of the half-demon still has this effect, Doctor Liu, tell me about it. The old octopus leaned over and asked.
The man called Doctor Liu smiled and said, "Uncle, don't think about it, the physical body can be reshaped, but the spiritual power of the monster is dissipated after death, and it is not possible to have complete spiritual power. Speaking of this, he suddenly stopped, his eyes revealed a sense of astonishment, he looked thoughtfully in the direction where the facial sores were at this time, and whispered to himself: "Yes, he is dead, the spiritual power has been scattered, how did it get together?"
There was a row of demon hunters standing in the cordon, all looking solemnly ahead.
The young man wearing the tide sign came to Bai Xing, put his right hand on his left shoulder, and said: "At about 4:10 tonight, a woman with a demonic aura came to the entrance of the demon world along the enchantment, and it should be that she has not seen any other monsters except for the sores on her body. She committed suicide by hitting the spiritual power pillar with the human face sore, and after the human face sores woke up, she grew tentacles to prevent her from committing suicide, and the report was completed!"
"Are you the new demon hunter Nangong Yang in Area E?"
"Yes, Captain! I want to bring something interesting to send to my family in the demon world tonight, and I will go to work normally the next day!" Nangong Yang continued to stand upright.
"Do you think she's still alive?"
Nangong Yang didn't understand what he meant for a while, and quickly flipped through the "Demon Hunting Entry Manual" in his mind, as if there was a clause that a fugitive from the death penalty could be killed on the spot, so he replied aloud again: "We will never let people get out of here alive!"
"I mean......" Bai Xing's voice lowered, and his gaze fell on three meters outside the spiritual power pillar, where Hao Yile was lying on the ground motionless covered in blood, her fingertips digging hard at the gap in the floor, although her eyes were closed and she looked like she was dead, but her bloodless hands were still making a final struggle.
After leaving her body, the tentacles of the human face sores instantly lost their vitality, and a pair of crab-like bulging eyes stood on Hao Yile's back, looking around in horror, hundreds of tentacles continued to grow out of Hao Yile's body, and quickly withered. It can't leave her body, which proves that the spiritual power of the human face sores is very weak now, and as long as it leaves the body, it will dissipate.
"I mean......" Bai Xing's voice lowered, "the girl. ”
I don't know if it's Nangong Yang's illusion, he actually saw the White Demon Division of the Qishu Pavilion that had been on the bloody battlefield and blocked a hundred...... His eyes were red.
Bai Xing looked at Hao Yile, who was constantly fighting against human facial sores, but he couldn't do anything.
Because he knew in his heart that the human being who had been eroded by facial sores had already become a walking corpse, and it was impossible......
"I shouldn't be alive. Nangong Yang told the truth.
"Then take it away now, don't let it die, I want to know who resurrected it! I'm going to kill that man!"
"Hao Yile can't live?" Xia Yitong, who was standing behind Bai Xing at some point, interrupted his angry voice, she looked at the terrifying scene not far away, the blood on the two elongated eyes was covered with bulging blood vessels, the blood vessels were Hao Yile's blood vessels, and the blood was also Hao Yile's blood Why, why did it invade her body, why did it harm her!
She wanted to rush forward, but Bai Xing grabbed her wrist and said, "Don't go over, the human face sores will reshape the body after sucking the blood of the half-demon, then Hao Yile will die in vain." ”
The thing in Xia Yitong's hand fell to the ground, and Bai Xing leaned over to pick it up, with a surprised look on his face: "Ten Thousand Bone Cores, where did you get it?"
Xia Yitong shook off his hand and sneered, "Captain Bai, you forgot, I'm not a half-demon. ”
Before she could finish speaking, the immortal bell at her feet had already made a series of jingling bells, and the world fell silent in an instant.
Everyone's movements became extremely slow, like a TV picture that had been slowed down dozens of times, moving centimeter by centimeter, and at the same time, Bai Xing felt that Xia Yitong's movements were as if she had fast-forwarded dozens of times, and in the blink of an eye, she had already come to Hao Yile's side, holding the bloody eyes with one hand.
But the strange thing is that the speed of the human face sores and Hao Yile has also not been slowed down, and Bai Xing's eyes showed a look of shock, could she already order the immortal bell to perform a selective time slowdown?
Xia Yitong grabbed those eyes hard, as if choking the throat of an enemy, she tightened her wrists, the long tube connected under those eyes was pinched flat, and the eyeballs swelled out of their sockets, as if they were about to fall, it turned its eyes and stared at Xia Yitong fiercely and in horror, and the blood overflowing from her eyes slid down her fingers to her arms, falling drop by drop at the elbow joint.
The eyes that had lost their blood supply withered and shrank like withered flowers and plants in Xia Yitong's hands.
She looked at Hao Yile on the ground, her back was like the stomach of some kind of ruminant at this time, densely covered with tiny tentacles, between the tentacles was sticky and sweet blood, and the rich taste rushed into her nose, Xia Yitong suddenly felt nauseous.
After the eyes of the human face sores shrank, he secretly gathered his spiritual power on the dozens of tentacles on Hao Yile's waist, and took advantage of the moment when Xia Yi's pupils lost his mind, and suddenly swelled up and wrapped her around her waist, but as soon as it exerted force, the immortal bell made a loud bell, and the tentacles wrapped around her waist fell like severed hair.
Xia Yitong looked at everything in front of him, but he didn't feel afraid, maybe in the face of hatred, people can't feel fear.
"I ask you, who resurrected you!Why did you kill Hao Yile!!," she roared.
The short tentacles of the facial sores kept trembling, "I...... It's just that the little spiritual power I have left happened to fall into the ghost walnut, and no one ......"
Xia Yitong grabbed the swaying short tentacles on Hao Yile's back, and pinched them off one by one with his fingernails, "Tell me who it is, I'll let you die a little faster, otherwise I will definitely let you die, a thousand times more painful than my friend, ten thousand times more painful!"
"Yes...... It's the owner of the ghost walnut!" The human face sore shouted, if he pinched it again, he would die, Hao Yile now has no blood to drink for it, if Hao Yile is dead now, it has no parasites, and there is no ghost walnut, then the spiritual power will definitely disperse, so she must be stabilized first.
"Very good...... Xia Yitong tore off the remaining tentacles.
Hao Yile suddenly snorted in pain, but his eyes were still closed, and he muttered weakly as if he was indulging in a dream: "Xia Yitong......"
Xia Yitong hurriedly leaned close to her, "Hao Yile, you ...... you?"
Xia Yitong ...... Don't give it the walnut, I won't let it drink your blood, I'm going to take it with you to die......"
After she finished speaking, her figure suddenly dried up at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the tentacles on her back suddenly grew wildly, like a flower that suddenly bloomed, spit out a slender stamen and shot into the air, and then fell rapidly, like a hundred sharp javelins shooting towards Xia Yitong.
Xia Yitong's eyes widened, looking at Hao Yile in confusion and helplessness, she couldn't believe that the girl who was still alive and begging her for food two days ago turned into a bloodless corpse, and her mind suddenly flashed what she had said to her in her dream, "She's just different, she looks ten thousand times better than you green tea without makeup, because she is my most important friend." ”
"Because she's my most important friend. She muttered, tears dripping down her cheeks like beads of broken thread onto the back of Hao Yile's dry hand.
It is because Hao Yile thinks that she is her most important friend, so he is willing to choose to die with the sores on her face in order to protect her.
But no...... The reality is not like this, it is just a sweet dream that the punishment gave you, we are just strangers who have met two or three times, I am not worth it for you to do this...... Although in my heart, I already regard you as my important friend.
Her slender shoulders trembled with grief.
Xia Yitong couldn't believe that this was her second time, watching her friend die in front of her, but there was nothing she could do......
Why, why she always brings misfortune to others.
A sharp tentacle shot into the back of her neck, although at the moment when it just pierced into her flesh, Xia Yitong felt pain, and the immortal bell automatically released a large amount of spiritual power, hitting the dozens of tentacles that fell straight above her head into powder, but it still stabbed her.
Blood slid down her snow-white neck and melted into her black clothes, and she picked up Hao Yile, who was as thin as a skeleton, and stood up, walking towards the crowd outside the cordon.
The world has returned to its original speed, but her friend is forever gone......
