Chapter 384: Illusion
"How is that possible?" Wei Zitang said with a handkerchief covering his mouth and nose and questioning with a look of disgust. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoIt's not like he's never seen a corpse, and even if he leaves it for a long time, it won't become so stinky.
"Of course human corpses don't stink like that. Hui Ye couldn't help but smile mockingly at Wei Zitang's appearance on the side, "These should be the smell of the 'ghouls' that quickly decayed after they were killed. ā
"Ghoul?" Wei Zitang obviously heard of this term for the first time, and he didn't care about the mockery on Kaguya's face for a while, and asked suspiciously.
"The corpse of a human being has been immersed in ghost energy for a long time, and it has mutated to form an evil creature. Ah Shan's voice was still soft, as if he was talking to himself, and continued to walk forward, "They feed on ghosts and corpses, and they only have a strong desire for food, and perhaps, they can't be called 'creatures' at all." ā
"This kind of thing will also exist? Human corpses won't last long before they decay. Wei Zitang frowned, covering his mouth and nose with a handkerchief, and the faint fragrance of flowers on the handkerchief could only slightly hide this rich fishy smell, so he had to endure the churning of his stomach so that he didn't vomit it directly.
There are many doubts in Ashan's explanation, if you want to mutate a lifeless corpse into an active monster, it is impossible to complete the work in a short period of time, and it must be immersed in ghost qi for a long time, and this process will take at least a year, and it is likely to be longer. If he was right, it would probably be close to the time of the ghost's transformation, at least a few years.
However, ordinary corpses will quickly decay without special treatment, so that even if the corpse is immersed in ghost energy, it will decompose into a pile of bones before turning into a monster.
If the so-called "ghouls" were moving white bones, they would certainly not have this strong fishy smell.
"In some special places, corpses are not easy to decompose. Ahsan suddenly stopped, turned his head to look at the two behind him.
This tall man has an angular face, thick black sword eyebrows fly obliquely into the sideburns, a tall and straight nose bridge reveals a touch of fortitude, slightly higher cheekbones, a slightly longer chin, does not look handsome but very stylish, his eyes are indifferent, there are several erect wrinkles between his eyebrows because of frequent frowning, and when he does not speak, he will naturally reveal a cold temperament.
"You mean, this is the kind of special place?" Wei Zitang frowned.
"What do you think? Why else did we bring that thing here back then?" replied Wei Zitang by Hui Ye on the side.
"I thought you'd choose this place because it's so close to that rift. Wei Zitang glanced at Kaguya.
"There are reasons for this, too. Ah Shan looked at Wei Zitang and said lightly.
Wei Zitang moved his brows slightly when he heard this, and asked with some confusion: "What does the so-called special place refer to?" He didn't feel anything special here, except for being a little black and smelly.
"Hell. Ahsan replied indifferently, "Because there has always been a magic circle and that monster before, you didn't realize that this place itself is a gathering place of ghosts. ā
"It's only because the ghost qi condensed here was sucked by the magic circle and then eaten by that monster, so you now feel that this place is no different from an ordinary place. Kaguya added, "When I first found this place, it was a ...... sight," Kaguya said, slushing as if he couldn't find the right adjective, and didn't finish his last words.
"There is a world of balance, but there are still a few places where this balance cannot be maintained. Ah Shan said and turned around, turned his back to Wei Zitang again, stretched out his right hand and pointed forward, "It's like here." ā
Wei Zitang followed Ah Shan's hand and looked ahead, and all he could see in the dim light were corpses.
Those corpses were very weird, none of them were complete, they looked like the feeding ground of some kind of huge monster, there were pieces of flesh and blood splashing everywhere, and a strong stench came to his face, making the disgust on Wei Zitang's face even more obvious.
"They're supposed to lure most of the ghouls here, and then deal with them all at once. Ahsan walked nonchalantly to the middle of the corpse, the soles of his feet stepping on the flesh walking on the ground made a "snapping" sound, and when he walked to the narrow and low passage, his face showed a smile for the first time, "It's very smart." ā
"Did you take advantage of the terrain here?" Wei Zitang also saw this.
"Cut, it's just a little cleverness. Kaguya pursed her lips and said disappreciatively.
Ah Shan ignored the two of them, muttered for a moment, bent down and burrowed into the passage, his huge body almost occupied the entire passage, but his movements were very flexible, and the speed of his movement was no different from before, and he quickly walked out of the passage.
When he got out from the other end, he had just straightened up, and Wei Zitang and Hui Ye also came out of the passage one after the other.
Wei Zitang wiped the blood stains on his clothes with a handkerchief with a disgusted expression, and asked at Kaguya in an unhappy tone, "Hey, how far is it ahead?"
"We've arrived. Kaguya ignored his tone and smiled and squeezed his small eyes, which had already been bent into thin slits.
"Huh?" Wei Zitang looked at the endless Yongdao in front of him with a surprised expression, and said in wonder, "Isn't it said that the Dharma array is spread in the deepest part?
"From here, all you see is an illusion. Hui Ye smiled smugly at Wei Zitang, "What's the matter?
"Illusion ......?" Wei Zitang narrowed his eyes when he heard this, stared at the cave in front of him, and said in a slightly shocked tone, "Is it a magic circle?"
"Yes, that's right. Kaguya nodded, "The perfect fusion of illusion and reality, so that the humans in it can't tell the truth from the fake at all." ā
"That's really ......" Wei Zitang looked around, but couldn't find any better adjectives, and finally said, "Awesome." ā
"It's very powerful, the illusion space formed by this kind of magic circle can't be detected even by humans who are keenly sensitive. Kaguya smirked, "Even Takayama Jing didn't notice anything unusual here. ā
"You arranged this magic circle?" Wei Zitang glanced at Kaguya and interrupted the other party. He didn't believe this guy was capable of that.
The corners of Kaguya's mouth twitched, she put away her smug smile, glared at Wei Zitang unhappily, and admitted: "It was indeed not arranged by me, but by 'that' lord himself." ā
"Oh, it's 'the hand' that moves? When Wei Zitang heard this, his eyes lit up. (To be continued.) )
