Chapter 514: The Illusion Becomes an Entity
Uncle Nine handed the torch to Zhou Xiaolong, he took out the brass compass, and as soon as he hit the lid, he was surprised and sighed.
Zhou Xiaolong hurriedly took a closer look, only to see that the needle of the compass had not moved at all, as if it had been broken.
Zhou Xiaolong asked Uncle Jiu, "Uncle Jiu, what's wrong with your antique compass?" Isn't it rusty, is it malfunctioning?! ”
Uncle Nine retorted angrily: "What are you kidding, this compass was made by Zhang Tianshi himself back then, it took seven seven and forty-nine days, and it must be a fine product produced by Heavenly Master, how could it be broken?" ”
Zhou Xiaolong asked Uncle Jiu: "Then why does the pointer not move?" ”
Uncle Nine didn't know, he put away the compass, thought about it and said: It's okay, let Zhou Xiaolong use the Heavenly Eye Skill to see which side is the way to live.
Zhou Xiaolong knew that Uncle Nine had strength, but he hadn't seen him use the Heavenly Eye Skill yet, so Zhou Xiaolong would wait and see.
I saw Uncle Nine close his eyes, his eyebrows raised, his index finger and middle finger erected with both hands, and he aimed his fingers at his temples, and then, in his mouth, he said: Heavenly Master helped me to subdue demons and catch monsters, gave me boundless mana, and made me open the Heavenly Eye Vision, see all the evils in the world, and be as urgent as the law......
Just when Zhou Xiaolong was full of anticipation, Uncle Jiu's body suddenly shook, and he didn't fall into the water.
Zhou Xiaolong held Uncle Nine and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with you?!" ”
Uncle Nine took a deep breath, it seemed to be quite painful, he rubbed his eyes and said: I see, this person is really a poisonous scorpion......
Zhou Xiaolong was puzzled and asked, "Uncle Jiu, who are you gritting your teeth for?!" ”
Uncle Nine told Zhou Xiaolong that this place was set up by gangsters to set up a terrible enchantment, which is the reason why the compass failed.
Zhou Xiaolong sighed and said: "There's really no way to forget it, Zhou Xiaolong try your luck, find a direction to try it, anyway, the big toad under Zhou Xiaolong's feet is still very honest, and it won't fall into the water for a while." ”
In the villages along the Yellow River, before the flood, the big toad knew how high the flood could go, so it would climb to the treetops in advance.
When the villagers saw the toad climbing the tree, they would immediately pick up their things and follow the toad to the tree, and where the toad climbed, the flood would rise, which was a warning when the flood came.
Zhou Xiaolong and Uncle Nine were discerning the direction and looking for a way out, and suddenly, Zhou Xiaolong felt that his feet were getting softer and softer, as if he was slowly sinking,
Zhou Xiaolong secretly screamed in his heart, and said, "Uncle Nine, is this big toad going to sink to the bottom of the water?!!!! ”
Uncle Nine also felt strange, he took the torch in Zhou Xiaolong's hand and shone it into the water, and Zhou Xiaolong saw that the body of the big toad under Zhou Xiaolong's feet seemed to be slowly melting......
What is the situation, this water Zhou Xiaolong has fallen before, and there is no corrosive effect, otherwise Zhou Xiaolong and Uncle Jiu would have died for a long time and turned into white bones.
Uncle Nine opened his eyes wide and looked down carefully, Zhou Xiaolong asked impatiently: Uncle Nine, think of a way, when the big toad is completely melted, Zhou Xiaolong will be terrible......
Uncle Nine said loudly: The matter has come to this point, and I can only fight......
After speaking, Uncle Nine raised the torch in his hand and threw it in one direction with all his strength, the torch flew in a circle in the dark sky for many meters, and finally, it fell into the water and went out.
Then, Uncle Nine snatched the torch from Zhou Xiaolong's hand again, and waved it vigorously in the opposite direction, just like the scene just now, the torch turned in a circle and went away in the air, but this time, the torch did not dim, but fell in one place, bounced a few times, and did not go out.
Zhou Xiaolong's heart was full of joy, what does this mean, this means, swim in the direction of the torch, and you will swim to the shore.
Although the big toad under his feet was very large, there was not much left of it at the moment, and soon, Zhou Xiaolong's feet were soaked in cold water, and two sentences suddenly came to mind in his mind, one was that the mud cow entered the sea, and the other was that the mud bodhisattva could not protect himself when he crossed the river......
Then, Zhou Xiaolong and Uncle Jiu fell into the water together and began to swim towards the firelight in the distance......
With a little bit of light as hope, even though Zhou Xiaolong and Uncle Jiu were so exhausted that they almost vomited blood, they still struggled to the place where the torch fell, however, that place was not a shore, but a dilapidated raft, floating on the water, because the water soaked into the wood, the flame on the torch did not ignite the wood.
The raft floated on the water, and Zhou Xiaolong and Uncle Nine used the raft as a life-saving straw and climbed up with great difficulty.
The raft was quite large, and the two of them were lying on it and breathing heavily, Zhou Xiaolong's heart was not easy, because there was a raft tightly under him, but it was not a solid cave bottom, and there was still a lot of water around, and the area was also very large, and it seemed that there was still a long way to go before Zhou Xiaolong could get out of the pool and find the shore safely.
The environment was still dangerous, so Zhou Xiaolong and Uncle Jiu had to take a short rest, drink a few sips of pool water to quench their thirst, and then hold torches and use their hands as pulp, as if looking for land in an underground dark river.
Next, Uncle Nine and Zhou Xiaolong took turns paddling or holding torches to illuminate them, looking for a way out.
While paddling, Zhou Xiaolong's heart was still full of doubts, and he couldn't help but ask Uncle Jiu: Uncle Jiu, what was the situation just now, how could that big toad melt away, this is not muddy, Zhou Xiaolong really can't believe it......
Uncle Nine held a torch and looked at the darkness in the distance, he thought for a moment before saying, "I think, Zhou Xiaolong has already guessed what is going on......
Zhou Xiaolong asked Uncle Jiu: Uncle Jiu, tell Zhou Xiaolong quickly, in this ghost place, I don't know if I can go out, if Zhou Xiaolong dies, I don't want to be a fool.
Then, Uncle Nine told Zhou Xiaolong: Zhou Xiaolong felt that the big toad just now was not a real toad, but a kind of resentment, or rather, it was the resentment that gathered together, which made the big toad as huge as Zhou Xiaolong saw...... Then the toad turns from an illusion into an entity again, but that entity does not exist for long, especially after leaving a specific environment, and after leaving a specific environment, the illusion entity will quickly disintegrate or even disappear......
Zhou Xiaolong asked: Uncle Jiu, you mean that the big toad is not an entity, it is an illusion, so whose grievances are gathered together?
Uncle Nine said even more inexplicably: Zhou Xiaolong believed that it was the condensation of the grievances of countless frogs in this mountain......
Zhou Xiaolong sighed and said, "Uncle Nine, are you confused, low-end creatures can still be resentful, don't fool Zhou Xiaolong, and don't bully me for not watching ghost movies?" ”
