Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Secret of the Forest of Steles
The cave was full of stone monuments and extremely gloomy, and the pursuers outside were still approaching step by step, but countless thoughts were spinning wildly in my head.
Sick Yangzi said that Old Man Sun's memory had been replaced. Did he immediately regain his memory after entering the flat heavenly sea, or did he suddenly trigger his original memory after seeing Ito Akikawa's photo?
It should be the second case. If Old Man Sun knew who he was from the beginning, then his acting skills should be enough to be called an actor.
Old man Sun once said that the life-urging stone tablet would appear frequently in Pingtianhai. He had obviously seen the other party's killing methods, and the scene at that time was a memory that he could not erase. Therefore, the other party had no choice but to keep the life-urging stele according to Old Man Sun's original memory.
Now it seems that the Urging Stone Tablet does exist, but there is no one to be found to manipulate the Stone Tablet. Perhaps, the man was behind the stele.
I was thinking about it when I suddenly heard someone approaching the stone door, so I immediately turned off my flashlight, held my breath and leaned against the door.
Just a few seconds later, a bayonet slowly poked out from behind the stone door, and the other party was obviously tentatively groping behind the stone door.
I grabbed the barrel of the opponent's gun with my backhand, pulled out the bayonet from the barrel with my right hand, and stabbed the opponent in the throat. It wasn't until the blade came out of the opponent's neck that the person standing behind him reacted, but at this moment, I pushed my hands together, shook the body out of the door, and rushed into the stele forest reflexively.
It wasn't until I jumped behind the stele that the stumble of gunfire rang out behind me.
I took advantage of the sparks that the bullets burst on the stone tablet, and shuttled back and forth several times before hiding behind the stone tablet. The situation in the cave was unknown, and I didn't dare to run too far, hiding more than ten meters away was already at the limit of the first temptation.
Beams of flashlights shone from outside the cave, and the Ito family's martial arts also poured into the cave in several ways, outflanking me in my direction. Judging from where they moved, they barely took any detours and went straight to the stone monument where I was hiding.
My location exposed?
I quietly drew my bayonet and was about to choose a direction to break through when I suddenly heard someone next to me whispering, "Don't move." ”
I was startled by the voice. When I squatted down, there was nothing behind the stele, and all the people of the Ito family were outside, so who appeared to me silently?
I turned my head in shock, and saw Old Man Sun sitting on the ground with his back against the stone tablet, slowly turning his head to look at me, a pair of dead fish-like eyes staring at my pupils without blinking: "Believe me, they can't see you." ”
I don't believe that Old Man Sun is too late, the Ito samurai who quickly outflanked me have already surrounded the stone monument where I am, and the muzzle of the bayonet pointed at me from all directions, and the two bayonets that poked down from the stone tablet almost hit my forehead.
I almost burst out with a knife when a devil suddenly said, "Lord, there is no one behind the stele." ”
When I swept the smiling old man Sun out of the corner of my eye, the latter reached out and touched my waist: "Don't be afraid, I won't do anything to you." You have a mask on you, others can't see you, Ito can see it, just wait for me to hide it for you. ”
Old devil Ito is down?
By the way, the devil was shouting "lord" just now, and the other party could only be the old devil Ito.
Wasn't he trapped on the ground by two monsters? Could it be that those two monsters let him kill him?
I couldn't help but gasp, and the old man Sun's dry hands touched my waist at the same time, and as soon as his palm pressed on my clothes, a cold cold air stuck to my body through the clothes.
I couldn't help but shudder, but Old Man Sun smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, don't take a knife at me, be careful of being seen by Ito." ”
I did have the idea of drawing a knife, but before I could raise my hand, Old Man Sun saw through my thoughts. Could it be that all people with golden masks can forcibly see through other people's thoughts? Isn't all my plans in vain?
Just as I was feeling chills on my body, Ito Akikawa strode over: "How can there be no one? Bastard......"
What does the old devil mean by scolding the street? Did he see me, or did he think he had been fooled?
In a short period of time, I tried to draw my sword several times to raid Ito Akirakawa, and several times I forcibly resisted the impulse.
Old man Sun said in a low voice: "Be careful, don't let him touch you." ”
I was just stunned for a moment, Ito Akikawa reached out and touched my head, and I quickly leaned back in the direction of the other person's palm. Ito's palm approached, and I slowly leaned back.
Old man Sun said gloomily at this time: "Be careful, you have a bayonet behind your back, and if you fall again, your head will touch the knife." ”
I glanced back quickly, and if a bayonet had been behind me, I would have slammed it into the knife if I leaned back. The Ito Takeshi with the 38 big cover can't see my figure, can't he still feel the weight of the gun?
I only paused for a moment before Ito's fingers almost touched the tip of my nose, and I quickly moved to the side, but the back of my head hit the bayonet behind me. I could clearly feel the blade sink downward, and the cold sweat on my body followed through the back of my coat.
What I didn't expect was that the samurai behind me stood motionless as if he wasn't aware of it, and Ito Akikawa's palm stopped at this moment not far from me, grabbed it back and forth twice, and then retreated.
After secretly breathing a sigh of relief, I looked at the old man Sun beside me in shock. He really can't make people feel the two of us?
Ito Akikawa took out half a golden mask from his body at this time. The half-moon-like mask in his hand was only the left half of the face, and from the forehead of the mask was connected with a gold wire chain at the top, center, and bottom, which looked like something specially designed to hold the notched mask in place.
Ito Mingchuan held the mask in his hand and flicked it lightly on the mask with his fingers, and the golden mask immediately let out a crisp sound.
At that moment, it was as if a golden light crossed my eyes, and the whole world was dyed with a layer of gold.
At that moment, I seemed to hear hundreds of stone tablets vibrating slightly, as if in response to the call of the mask.
At that moment, I felt the golden mask on my body beating violently, as if I wanted to break free and run to my partner.
At that moment, whether it was my sight, hearing, or touch, I was responding to the call of the golden mask, and if it wasn't for Old Man Sun holding my shoulder, I might even have stood up and walked towards Ito Akirakawa.
Fortunately, the tremor of the Golden Mask only lasted for a moment before it gradually calmed down, and I was not exposed to Ito Akikawa's eyes.
What if he did it again......
When I saw Ito Akikawa curl up his right index finger and aim at the golden mask again, my right hand hanging down beside me couldn't help but clench the bayonet fiercely, and the muscles of my whole body instantly tensed, and my eyes were firmly fixed on the opponent's vital point.
I don't dare to keep myself alive with the resonance of the golden mask once, and if Ito Akikawa makes another move, even if I fight to expose my body, I have to give it a go and take down the opponent in the shortest possible time.
Ito Mingchuan's fingers gradually approached the edge of the mask, but they retracted it again: "Disperse, continue to search for Wang Huan in pairs, be sure to find him for me." ”
"Yes!" Ito Takeshi nodded in unison as they walked towards the depths of the stele forest.
I squatted in place and waited for them to walk more than ten meters before I asked in a deep voice, "What do you want to do with the surname Sun?"
Old man Sun stood up and said, "The golden mask can generate induction within a certain range, he can find you, and you can also find him." ”
I said coldly, "I'm not asking you who can find whom, I'm asking you what the Golden Mask is all about." ”
Old man Sun said: "There are some things that I have remembered, but I can't say it, I will die immediately if I say it." I must not die until the grudge is settled. ”
"What I can tell you is that Takahashi and I were both dead when we entered the flat sea. You saw that I was bleeding and dying, not because of our tricks, but because when our memories were unsealed, the curse hidden in our bodies exploded, and we died on the spot. ”
Old man Sun suddenly tore open his clothes: "Look at ......"
I shuddered as I looked up. The skin on Old Man Sun's body is extremely shiny and elastic, and the muscles on his body are well-defined, as if someone had cut off an old man's head and attached it to a young man's body.
Old man Sun pointed to the blood-red cherry blossom on his chest and said, "This body was not mine, but Ito's hand." After Takahashi and I died, someone put a mask on his face, and my memories ran into his head, and I was alive again. ”
"That's what I mean when I tell you, 'Maybe you'll see me again.'" After I came back to life, the first thing I did was to come to find the Death Monument, and I knew that there must be a secret hidden here, and this secret was the key to unlocking the secret of Pingtianhai. ”
Old man Sun smiled slightly: "There are many people in Ito, so it's better to let him break through first, and let's stay and wait and see." ”
I looked at Old Man Sun coldly: "Why do you want to save me? After I die, wouldn't it be better for you to take the golden mask yourself?"
Old man Sun shook the golden mask in his hand and said: "My mask is hidden, but it can only be hidden, Ito himself is a ninja, I think it is not difficult to hide his eyes, but it is difficult to kill him." So, I can only wait for the opportunity. If you die, my chances are even smaller. ”
I looked at Old Man Sun and said, "Isn't there another person, why don't you cooperate with him?"
