Chapter 126: Stone Tower (18)
The child grabbed her sleeve at once, and the strength was so great that Da Bai, who was curled up on his shoulders, couldn't help but look at him with his little head down. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Sister, you help me, you help me, okay?" His voice was low and helpless, but in the end, because of the eagerness in his heart, it became louder and louder.
"You...... Stand behind me, that's it. Looking at the child's trusting eyes, she paused and said.
"No, sister, it's not me, it's my grandfather......" At this point, he was about to cry, pointing to a place in front of him, and said with a little difficulty, "He's still there!"
Liluo looked in the direction he pointed, and saw nothing but darkness.
"Where there is no light, these shadows can't help you, don't worry. The girl explained softly and comforted, but suddenly remembered the figure of the child running wildly before, she felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly asked, "Are these figures starting to chase you there?"
"Hmm. The child responded with a crying voice, "I was walking with my grandfather, and I suddenly felt something on my body pushing and pulling us, and then my grandfather grabbed his neck and hung directly in the air, I went to pull grandpa's legs, trying to pull him down, but he fell off by himself, and then we heard laughter......"
Liluo couldn't help frowning when he heard this, these figures were really too deceitful, and they plundered and killed the people in this stone building mercilessly when they had enough of them. They don't need to forage for food, and they do so for their own pleasure.
"Later, we saw more people pouring out of the hallway, followed by shouts of struggle...... They seemed to be pushing their people, and by the time they got into the hallway, we couldn't see clearly. It's just that when they saw me and my grandfather, they were startled, and they crowded away from afar, just watching from the sidelines, and they didn't help us......" The child's words were very fast, and in the end, there was hatred in the young voice, and in the blink of an eye, it calmed down, as if self-explanatory, and whispered, "Perhaps, they don't know how to help us." β
Liluo was silent, and he had a faint conjecture about this in his heart.
Thinking of the obscene smile of the thin man before, it is estimated that at that time, he had already deceived the old man and the little man of the brand, otherwise he would not be so fearless in the doorway of the hall. ββWith a person who is destined to be chased by a figure in the stone building as a bait, and has an extra brand of protection, how can he not relax?
And as for the people in the hallway......
I'm afraid it was the person who was on the second floor, and after the monster foraged for food, the figures were wantonly chased to the end of the corridor on the other side.
Those people probably came down the stairs and ran in this corridor, because the candles in the corridor had been extinguished, which was a natural shelter for them. It was only the relentless pursuit of the figures that some of them had to "choose to give up" their companions and push the people behind them as cover for a while, so that there was the sound of struggle that the child said.
Later, when I saw the tragic situation of the child's grandfather, they had lived in this stone building for so long, what did they not know?
What a selfish person.
Li Luo glanced coldly into the depths of the hallway.
Lowering his eyes, the child was waiting for her reply. Liluo touched his head and asked softly, "How is your grandfather now?"
The question was vague and euphemistic, and the child immediately cried, sobbing and choking intermittently, "I don't know, I should still be alive...... The figures teased me and my grandfather, and when I ran, they laughed so hard that most of them seemed to be chasing me, and some of them continued to torture my grandfather right there......"
Liluo has a number in his heart, presumably the child's grandfather is not dead.
She looked at the behavior of these shadows, recalled what Grandma had said before, and felt that these were a feast of slaughter for the shadows, and it was not human lives that attracted them, but more human struggles, fears, and ugliness before death......
Just like they were when they were dying.
"Come, tell me in which direction. Liluo said softly with a calm face.
The child looked at it quizzically, and pointed to one place.
She bowed her head slightly, subconsciously pulled the child behind her, and slowly approached the front while taking out the white silk.
Those figures had already listened to the conversation between the two, but unfortunately they were helpless about it, and they were afraid of Dabai for a while, afraid that its shadow would touch them. I couldn't break through, so I had to retreat little by little as the girl approached step by step.
Liluo's face froze, almost forcing them back into the darkness, and at this time she could vaguely see the people in a tightly packed group inside. The white silk in his hand shot into the aisle like a sword light, his wrist moved slightly, but the front end suddenly twisted and turned, and he felt the trembling of the person under the silk surface, and the tiger's mouth opened slightly, grabbed the white silk backhand, and pulled it back.
"Grandpa!"
The child hurriedly pounced.
The old man was already in rags, and he was being played with by those figures in the dark, and some of the intact clothes inside were in tatters, and he looked pitiful.
At this time, he was rescued by Liluo with white silk, shrunk to the ground, his head hung down, and his dirty hair covered his face, as if he had not come back to his senses.
"Grandpa, grandpa. The child was crying and hugged the old man. After a long pause, the old man raised his hand a little stiffly and patted the child's back.
There were bursts of exclamations from the dark corridors inside, as if she had found that she had been able to successfully save the old man under these figures, and seemed to have suddenly noticed that the figures did not dare to touch her.
Slowly, some people walked out cautiously, looked down and watched their shadows carefully, and then shouted for help from Liluo.
Liluo didn't seem to see this, she patted Dabai, who was still holding the dead goose on her shoulder, no matter how tearful it was, no matter how pitiful it looked, let it fly to guard against these figures. He squatted down and looked at the old and the young.
"You have seen ......" She carefully described the appearance of Ning Minxiu and Ning Pingyan, looked at the child and thought for a long time and shook her head, and couldn't help but be silent.
The design of this stone building was extremely simple, the old man and the child came from the corridor on the other side, and she was on the other side, but she didn't see the two of them. You can't have been locked up in the first place, right?
With their abilities, this is impossible.
She hesitated for a long time, and finally quietly handed the brand she had been carrying in her arms to the child.
She should have believed in the abilities of the High Monks.
Detachment comforted himself. Then he got up and blew out the light in the surrounding stone pillars, forming a natural barrier.
"You have a good rest here, these figures will not come, and those people will not dare to step over the light in the middle......," she instructed, "and you must pick up this sign." β
The child's eyesight was good, and he had already understood the role of the brand, but he asked worriedly, "That sister, what should you do?"
"Me?" Liluo smiled, "Don't worry, I still have my means......" When she said this, she subconsciously went to look at Dabai, but found that Dabai's little head actually hit the stone wall, thinking that she was losing her temper. As he spoke, he hurriedly grabbed it with one hand, but he didn't expect that the stone wall was glowing with blue light, dragging her and Da Bai into it little by little...... (To be continued.) )
