Chapter 40: The Study Trap
Mu Ling didn't think about it, he quickly turned around, and the kitchen knife in his hand took advantage of the momentum, and he didn't touch any real thing. Jiang Xiaoshi's head was floating a meter away, and his excessively wide eyes didn't seem to have any focus, but it was very uncomfortable, as if Jiang Xiaoshi was looking at them.
Looking closely, there is not nothing under Jiang Xiaoshi's skull, it is something like smoke, spreading from the broken wound in the neck, because it is black, it is not very clear. But as the scope of the black fog expanded, the darkness in the room became more obvious, and the moonlight could not penetrate the black fog, so that the two of them could see clearly.
It's a trap!
It was just an instant, Mu Ling instantly figured out these things, all of which were the work of the unknown evil spirit hidden.
Whether it is Jiang Xiaoshi's headless corpse, the facts he says, the computer, the diary, or Jiang Xiaoshi's head, all of them are elements that make up a trap. It kills Jiang Xiaoshi, devours most of his soul, manipulates his body to meet them, tells them false information, leads them into this room, and then uses the computer as a guise, and Jiang Xiaoshi's mutilated head evil spirit as the last step to kill the prey.
"Mr. Jiang, Mr. Jiang Xiaoshi! You, don't come here, I have a knife......"
Scarlet Feather's eyes widened, and she held the knife in front of her, but the trembling of her arms betrayed her fear. Jiang Xiaoshi was only one meter away from her, such a close distance, showing Jiang Xiaoshi's hideous expression, Scarlet Feather was scared, but she couldn't look away, there seemed to be a vertigo symbol spinning in her eyes, and her hands trembled even more.
Seeing her like this, Mu Ling grabbed her arm and said in a deep voice: "Yu, calm down!" He hasn't moved yet! ”
"Huh?"
His eyes regained their clarity, and Scarlet Feather realized that Jiang Xiaoshi was always one meter away from them, without the slightest movement, but the black mist continued to slowly spread out from the broken neck, which seemed to constitute the body.
"Come here." Mu Ling pulled the scarlet feather and planned to retreat along the edge of the table, Jiang Xiaoshi didn't make any movement, and watched the two move away with wide eyes.
The two of them quickly moved away from the desk, and just as they were about to grab the door, a sudden gust of wind blew from the window, slamming the door shut.
"Run!"
This huge sound was like the gunfire of the starting pistol at the start, Mu Ling and Scarlet Feather rushed to the door, Mu Ling's fingertips were just about to touch the handle of the door, and Jiang Xiaoshi on the side also moved! Before Mu Ling unscrewed the handle, he felt a chill on his back, and the corner of his eyes touched a darkness, and he didn't have to think about it to know that it was the black mist of Jiang Xiaoshi's body.
"Ahh Little Spirit! ”
Scarlet Feather let out a mournful roar, and Mu Ling looked back, and one of her hands was actually wrapped around Jiang Xiaoshi. The kitchen knife waved in Mu Ling's hand and stabbed at Jiang Xiaoshi, the blade touched the black mist, although it did not touch the feel of the real thing, the black mist was stirred up, it was really just a simple smoke.
But it couldn't be that simple, Mu Ling could clearly see that the clothes on the arm where Scarlet Feather had been caught had been corroded, and a jet-black handprint had been left on the white skin inside.
"Yu, are you alright?" Mu Ling pulled Scarlet Feather behind him, and his tone was involuntarily a little panicked. The kitchen knife in her hand was aimed at Jiang Xiaoshi vigilantly, as if she was looking at the enemy who shared the sky, and her eyes were full of murderous aura.
Scarlet Feather tried to move the hand that had been caught, and it was unharmed, but she didn't feel anything, and the fingerprints that left behind were cold, as if some of them had been frozen to death. Scarlet Feather was afraid that Mu Ling would be distracted, and he didn't think it was very serious, so he didn't say it. She smiled and shook her head at Mu Ling.
"I'm fine."
Mu Ling didn't know this, and she didn't have time to check Scarlet Feather's injuries properly. She could only think that Scarlet Feather was really fine, her whole mind was now on Jiang Xiaoshi, and the black mist that had been cut off before was reconnected to Jiang Xiaoshi's body, and the black mist continued to spread outward, faintly filling the room, forcing Mu Ling and Scarlet Feather to the door.
"Yu, go open the door. I'm here here! ”
After Mu Ling finished speaking, he focused all his attention on Jiang Xiaoshi. Physical blows could hardly cause any damage to the black mist, and it seemed that the only weakness should be Jiang Xiaoshi's head. But it's also tricky to get there. Jiang Xiaoshi manipulated the black fog around him, crisscrossing and criss-crossing, forming layers of blockades and sealing his head.
If you want to attack the vital point, you must break through many obstacles, and those black fogs, no matter how you look at them, will not make people feel that they are harmless.
If the long knife was still in her hand, Mu Ling would not worry about this kind of thing at all, but now she only has a few kitchen knives, one inch short, one inch dangerous. Mu Ling didn't know anything about this black mist, and although she didn't see anything wrong with Scarlet Feather, she was still careful. Mu Ling could only stalemate with Jiang Xiaoshi, not daring to move.
Jiang Xiaoshi didn't make much movement here, just spread the black mist, and only when he was close to Mu Ling would he attack, and the black mist formed an arm shape and grabbed it. Mu Ling swung his knife to cut through the black mist and stepped back slightly. It's just that she didn't notice how many steps back she took without touching the scarlet feather or the wall!
"Little Spirit! The door won't open! ”
Scarlet Feather tried her best to twist the handle of the door, but the door was not locked, but it could not be opened anyway. Scarlet Feather was a little anxious for a while, but when she looked back, she saw the black fog approaching little by little, because the light was completely covered, she couldn't even see where Mu Ling was. The sheer darkness of her vision terrified her.
"Little Spirit!"
Scarlet Feather let go of the handle, and stretched out his hand to grope indiscriminately, the surroundings were empty, and he couldn't touch Mu Ling's existence at all, and he wanted to open the door when he went back, but found that the original position of the door had also become empty, empty.
"Little Spirit! Where are you? ”
Mu Ling relied on her intuition of the power of the evil spirit's curse to deal with Jiang Xiaoshi in the dark, and after so long, Mu Ling finally found that Scarlet Feather was not by her side, not only that, but she didn't touch anything except the ground under her feet. It's like getting lost in the darkness.
She also tried to call Scarlet Feather, but she didn't get any response, as if there were only her and Jiang Xiaoshi in this endless darkness. Mu Ling's situation was very passive, she lost her light, she couldn't see where Jiang Xiaoshi's head was at all, and the opportunity to take the initiative to attack was completely lost. I could only be tired of dealing with Jiang Xiaoshi's black mist attack, and I couldn't help but feel a little irritable in my heart.
Mu Ling knew that this was a big no-no in battle, and she tried to regulate her breathing to make herself calmer. Simply close your eyes so as not to distract yourself from unwanted distractions.
