Chapter 66: Infiltration
After the first loud bang came from the castle, it did not stop, and the sound of collision hit one after another, and even the entire castle was shaken continuously, and the stones on the top kept falling, as if an earthquake had occurred.
In this way, something must have happened in the castle. Li Bai's eyes flashed, and he hurriedly beckoned Liu Erhei and Wang Meng to go towards the gate of the ancient castle, in this chaotic moment, even if they killed the gatekeeper long-tongued ghost and the big-headed ghost openly, there would definitely be no ghost to meddle in things.
Soon, the group of three came to the gate of the ancient castle, and immediately saw the big-headed ghost and the long-tongued ghost trembling on the ground with their heads in their hands. The two ghosts seemed to have been frightened, and they didn't notice the arrival of Li Bai and the others, Wang Meng went up curiously and kicked the big-headed ghost, but it only made his body tremble a little.
Wang Meng immediately looked disdainful, and wanted to walk past them and go inside, but was pulled back by Li Bai. He pulled up the still trembling big-headed ghost, and the Taibai sword in his hand was already on the neck of the big-headed ghost, and he could cut off his head as long as he threw some more of it. Faced with this scene, the big-headed ghost's body trembled even more, like chaff.
"Big head, you know the current situation. Next I ask, you answer, if you dare to lie, you know the consequences. ”
The big-headed ghost nodded desperately, and the madness made Li Bai couldn't help but worry about whether his neck would suddenly be thrown out of the body because he was overwhelmed. He also relaxed his hand holding the Taibai Sword a little, so that the big-headed ghost was quieter.
"Big head, do you know what's going on in the road?"
"I really don't know what to do, I was obviously fine some time ago." Seeing that he couldn't answer Li Bai's question, the big-headed ghost was so frightened that he stammered a little when he spoke. Li Bai stroked his forehead helplessly, and secretly sighed that he was thinking too much, with his timid temperament, how could he know what was going on in Lu Dao, and he immediately asked the next question.
"Are you familiar with the castle?"
"Hey! You've really found the right person, I've been living in this Xuanyin Ghost Castle since I evolved into a human form, and the Ghost King is very tolerant and doesn't restrict our behavior too much, so I'm very familiar with this Xuanyin Ghost Castle, no matter where you want to go, I can find it with my eyes closed. ”
Hearing Li Bai's question, the big-headed ghost stopped shaking his head in an instant, his body stopped shaking, and he didn't even tremble when he spoke. It seems that although this guy is timid, he is a good person, and seeing that he is useful to Li Bai, he is no longer afraid.
"Well, since you're so powerful, take us to find the soul fluid. No matter how much soul liquid you have, you should know the way. ”
Seeing that the big-headed ghost obviously flinched a little after hearing the soul fluid, Li Bai's last sentence already carried a hint of coldness, and there was a big meaning that if you don't take me there, you will kill you immediately. This big-headed ghost is also worthy of being an extremely life-saving ghost, and immediately heard the threat in Li Bai's words, and he didn't dare to say more, so he agreed resignedly.
The big-headed ghost was about to take them into the castle, but Liu Erhei coldly gave the long-tongued ghost who was still lying on the ground and pretending to be dead a pitch-black sword, and a head with a long tongue was thrown high, and it rolled down exactly next to the big-headed ghost, and there was a hint of luck on this head that felt that he had escaped. When the big-headed ghost saw this head, his legs, which had just been somewhat calm, couldn't stop shaking, but he didn't dare to say a word more, but dared to lower his head and walk forward, as if to get rid of the fear in his heart.
Entering the castle, the big-headed ghost immediately entered the state it should be, walked at the front of the team proudly, and deliberately found a gray-black rope to tie up Li Bai and the others, looking like he was escorted to the human race to come back to invite merit. Of course, this rope is also looking at bluffing, as long as Li Bai is willing, he can break free at any time, and he can also have time to kill the big-headed ghost. Wang Meng didn't want to be locked by this ghostly chain, but in order to hide the ghost's eyes, he could only succumb helplessly.
After entering the ancient castle for about a quarter of an hour, Li Bai didn't even see anyone, and the surrounding environment became more and more remote, and he couldn't help but stop and pull the ghost rope that bound him. The big-headed ghost who was still immersed in the fear of the road was suddenly pulled, and he screamed in fright.
The agitated Wang Meng went up and gave him a kick, kicking the rest of his scream back into his stomach.
"Daxian, what's wrong?" The big-headed ghost asked in a whisper.
"Are you sure it's a good path? Why haven't I seen a ghost along the way, this place is still so remote. ”
"The Great Immortal doesn't know that although this soul liquid is also very beneficial to our ghost clan, it is not liked by my ghost clan. Every drop of soul liquid was refined by countless ordinary ghosts who had not opened their spiritual wisdom, and even those of us who had opened their spiritual wisdom and advanced to the innate ghost would be turned into ashes when they encountered that soul refining array. We, the Xuanyin Ghost King, cherish the people, so we put the core of the soul refining array on the edge of the castle, and no other ghost pawns are willing to come here, so it is naturally very deserted. ”
"Aren't you a ghost pawn who evolved through the Soul Refining Array?"
"Of course not, the ghost pawns who evolved from the Soul Refining Array are all the genius elites of our ghost clan, and I am just an inferior ghost pawn who naturally evolved. However, those genius ghost pawns were miserable, except for a few who escaped by luck, the others were captured by the monks of the Human Ghost King Sect who came to retrieve the soul liquid. ”
"Your Lord Xuanyin Ghost King just watched the genius being captured?"
"What's the solution, since that ghost became the senior brother of the Ghost King Sect, the people he sent have become even more arrogant, those previous innate ghost pill levels are okay, our Lord Ghost King can still deal with it, but the Lord Ghost Li who came this time is a real king-level powerhouse, and even Lord Xuanyin Ghost King is slightly inferior."
"Then do you say that the Xuanyin Ghost King and the ghost are fighting in the castle?"
"How do I know about Lu Dao, I'm just a pawn guarding the door, just watch the gate of the castle, as for the matter of the Ghost King, I don't care about it for a long time."
After speaking, the big-headed ghost turned around and walked up directly, and did not forget to pull the rope in his hand, signaling Li Bai and the three to follow, and really regarded himself as a great hero who caught a human being to invite merit. Li Bai was speechless, until now, he really admired this strange big-headed ghost, how did his sister survive until now!
Sure enough, as the big-headed ghost said, there were really no other ghosts on their way to the core of the Soul Refining Array to intercept them, but it was this ancient castle with a European medieval style that shocked the three of them. Although there are still some ruins of ancient castles on the modern earth, Li Bai has also seen many pictures on the Internet, which are full of photographers' longing for the ancient castle that symbolizes dignity, mystery and mantra. But after all, it is not as intuitive as your own eyes.
The high dome, the round spire, the exquisite cloister, and the winding stone path made Li Bai feel the innate dignity and strictness of the castle, which was a little incompatible with the gloomy aura that permeated the entire castle. Although these ghosts have eroded almost all the bluestone in the castle.
"Big head, this castle wasn't built by your Xuanyin Ghost King, right?"
"Of course not, how can we ghost clans need such a depressed castle. But this is where our Ghost King found out, and he wants to live here, so we naturally live here, but it's quite fun. ”
"How long have you been born? You were the one who followed the Xuanyin Ghost King when he came here? ”
"Of course, when we came here, the Ghost King had just broken through to the Ghost Pill realm, and I was the patriarch of our Xuanyin Ghost Cave. As for my ghost age? I can't really remember, but it's always been for thousands of years. ”
After listening to his statement, Li Bai didn't feel strange, but Wang Meng was already holding his stomach and laughing.
"I said big-headed ghost, are you too big to hit the wall, so much so that you can't even remember your age, even if it's a little ghost with low qualifications, you can become a ghost king after living for thousands of years, I said don't blow it!"
Unexpectedly, the cowardly big-headed ghost broke out directly after hearing Wang Meng's taunt, and turned around and pointed at Wang Meng and scolded.
"Boy, you can laugh at me and scold me, but you can't doubt my age, I've always been the oldest ghost in this castle, not one! Did you hear me clearly? Yes! ”
Wang Meng's scolded dog was bloody, unbelievable, he was stunned for a while, and when he came back to his senses, he wanted to beat the big-headed ghost, but was stopped by Li Bai, and let the big-headed ghost continue to lead the way in front, and Liu Erhei also blocked Wang Meng's body in a timely manner, so as not to make a move on the big-headed ghost under impulse.
When the big-headed ghost was scolding Wang Meng just now, Wang Meng, who was the party concerned, may not have noticed it, but Li Bai and Liu Erhei felt a fleeting and powerful aura from the big-headed ghost at the same time, like the abyss to the sea, unfathomable.
