Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Hanging Angel

The footprint was close to the size of Mina's foot.

It had to be her.

But how the hell did she get in? Like us? So she's also a lucky person? And where will these footprints extend......

With that in mind, I began to follow the footprints, walking in the direction behind the hall. Just after walking a few steps, Zuo Yuan came to his side and also looked at the footprints on the ground: "It seems that she really arrived here, one step ahead of us." Those demon locusts can't do anything about her, worthy of Sister Lan. ”

He still felt that Mina was Du Youlan.

It doesn't matter to me.

But I seem to have noticed one thing. Zuo Yuan said "Sister Lan". I remember that Yao Qianwen often called Du Youlan like this, they called Du Youlan the same, and Du Youlan called them the same.

"So I'm going to follow the footprints and see where they stop." I responded.

"Together." Zuo Yuan walked in front.

After going around the hall, we crossed a corridor and found a spiral staircase that spiraled up and down at the same time. The light is dim, but there is still a faint light when looking up, and the spiral staircase can be seen at a glance. But downward, the ladder really turns into endless darkness, and it is impossible to tell how deep it is.

The footprints chose to go down.

It is clearly left on the dusty steps, but the direction and interval of the marks are different and intermittent, even on the regular staircase. This shows that when she goes down, she is hesitating, thinking, stopping and stopping, or often looking back behind herself.

She said she would wait for me here.

So you're looking at me? See if I'm here?

Why on earth would she want to see me here? Or should this road go down with me, but I didn't get here. So, she had to force herself......

The appearance of this thought made me feel uneasy.

"Wait a minute." Zuo Yuan grabbed me who was about to go down.

"Why?"

He pointed to his head, "I haven't seen it yet." ”

So, he first arranged for his subordinates to search the upper floors of the church. Soon, the search ended. And this search is really rewarding. The upper layers are basically the same as the ones below, and they are all corpses of insects and people, but one of the corpses has an interesting death. Because of the fear before death, he hugged the carved idol, so in the end, instead of dying from the mouth of the demonic locust, he pulled the idol down and smashed himself alive below.

And in the position under the original idol, Zuo Yuan's people found a key with exquisite workmanship.

Although the church was large, all the places on the surface floor were clear at a glance, and after a careful search, there were no doors or boxes that needed to be opened by the key.

"What kind of idol is that?" Zuo Yuan asked the rattlesnake.

"It's broken, I can't see it clearly...... But the main position should be the chief messenger of the twenty-one messengers of the chrysalis god. ”

Legend has it that the earth was once controlled by demons possessed by evil insects, and the chrysalis god gave twenty-one people special divine powers in the world before his arrival to fight against demons. These twenty-one people are all the gods of the religion of the country. And the one closest to the chrysalis god is called the chief of the twenty-one divine messengers.

Legend has it that the chrysalis god came to earth from this person's body.

This legend was told to me by Yao Qianwen. When I heard it, I couldn't help but think about the picture I saw in the relief tower of the Moshan Underground Palace that day. This legend is somewhat similar to the insect life record in the relief, which selects some people, and then the worm borrows the body of one of them.

"The status is quite high." Zuo Yuan smiled coldly and accepted the key.

Next, the attention is on the footprints.

Descending the stairs, it is started by the people of the left element, the first twelve, the last twelve. The spiral staircase is so deep that if we count the height of three meters and one floor, we will go down about ten floors before we finally reach the end. A spacious hall about the size of a quarter of a football field.

As far as the eye can see, there are a total of eight entrances and exits, each extending to eight prescription positions.

And the footprints are still clearly visible here. She chose one of them, and this time she didn't hesitate to go in that direction.

Zuo Yuan did not hesitate and made a decision immediately.

But I found something weird.

"Why don't you go?" Zuo Yuan looked back at me.

At that time, I was staring at the corpse of a demonic locust on the ground. That's right, there are still the corpses of demonic locusts here, but there are not so many of them, scattered on the ground, very sparse.

"Huh?" I looked up.

"What did you find?"

"There are bugs here, too."

"Isn't that right? Let's go. ”

I followed the group, in the direction where the footsteps extended, and as for the worm......

I don't think it should be taken for granted.

I've already met it twice, and it's an old rival, and that thing has a lot of vitality and can come back from the dead. It is an absolute powerhouse. But the question is, are they very short-lived? And, are there individual differences? Otherwise, there is no way to explain why there are so many insect corpses along the way.

If some of them were shot at by the guns of believers, then it was. However, the shot will pierce and even scatter the worm's body. But along the way, half or even more of the insect corpses I saw were complete corpses.

Not to be killed.

Rather, it is a natural death.

It's also very strange here.

In addition to this problem, I am also a little concerned about the dust that leaves footprints on the ground.

……

Continue to follow the team and enter the direction where the footprints extend, it is a dark corridor with doors on both sides, but each door cannot be opened, and the key that Zuo Yuan picked up has also tried, but it can't be corresponding. Between each door, there are mirrors, very large, from the roof of the corridor to the ground, and the width is close to the distance between the two doors.

I couldn't see the end of the corridor at a glance, and after walking for a while, I couldn't even see clearly behind me.

But the footprints still haven't disappeared.

We followed until suddenly a shout came from behind us. I don't understand the prophecy of the country, but I probably understand the tone, like cursing.

Then, the two argued.

"What's going on?" Zuo Yuan looked at the rattlesnake, with an impatient look on his face, if it weren't for the fact that the number of people was already small, he was afraid that he would kill the two directly.

The team stopped for a while, and Rattlesnake communicated with the two for a while, both in the Chinese language. However, the number of participants in this exchange has increased inexplicably. At first, it was just the two of them, and then, for some reason, almost everyone had to chime in. I was curious about what they were talking about, so I asked Zuo Yuan: "Your people don't seem to be casual, why are you arguing?" ”

Zuo Yuan squinted slightly, then slowly raised his head, looked at the roof of the corridor, his eyes showed a strange color, and he said lightly: "That person said that the person in the back always used his tongue to slide the back of his head. The people behind said that they didn't, and after several times, they quarreled. But as soon as these words spread, everyone in the back team said that they also felt the same way, and they were ...... by something."

Tongue?

"Oh my God! Uncle, don't say it, really...... I also felt something sticky just now, and I scratched the back of my head, which was quite uncomfortable...... I thought it was a delusion, too. Yao Qianwen hugged her shoulders and leaned in front of me, "How do you feel that this place is gloomy, it's not haunted, right?" ”

I don't know if it's haunted or not, but just as I was listening to Yao Qianwen's words, I suddenly felt a cool air coming down from the back of my neck, and my golden heart was beating violently, and I pulled out the dagger on my waist while moving forward, and turned around suddenly! But a white shadow flashed in his eyes, which was disappearing rapidly.

The white shadow scurried upwards!

"What's that?"

"Mayay!" Yao Qianwen leaned over to me and leaned close to my shoulder. She saw it too.

Then, there was a noise at the front of the line, and it seemed that someone had slipped by the "tongue" again.

But that's just the beginning, and soon, the incident escalated!

"Ah...... Yes!! There was a scream, and I came from the direction behind me, and when I looked back, I saw a man hanging in the air, with a bright red thing wrapped around his neck, like a snake, still wriggling. There was a white shadow hanging down on top of it, and that thing was very familiar to me, it was......

The dangling angel in my hallucination!

Blood flowed down his tongue and white cloth, and he was dwelling down to the ground.

The man struggled to be dragged into the angel's cloth, and then there was a heart-rending scream, and more blood flowed from the cloth, and in addition to blood, there were also broken and scattered stumps.

"Back to back, keep an eye on the head, shoot!" Rattlesnake ordered.

At the same time as the order was given, the top of the corridor began to shake, it turned out that it was not a shed roof at all, but hanging angels! With white clothes, it fell from the sky, and the blood flowed from the robes to the ground, surrounding us. Zuo Yuan's subordinates shot intensively upward, and the originally large number of hanging angels should be easily shot, even if they are not easy to kill, at least they can be injured.

However, a strange scene appeared.

One by one, the bullets pierced the angel's body, leaving no trace! It's like piercing through the air, and even their white clothes can't be destroyed.

One of the angels suddenly hung down and was right in front of me!

My arms were alienated, and my claws were clawed towards its body, and although the wind swept its white clothes, revealing an inverted hideous pale face and a long blood-stained tongue, the claws were like grasping the reflection in the water!

I pounced, but its tongue wrapped around my wrist tightly! The sheer force almost shattered my bones! If it weren't for the fact that the alienated arm could be restored and the diameter of my wrist was instantly reduced, I'm afraid I would have been dragged by this thing as if it were inside its white clothes.

I was out for a while, but I didn't have a trace of joy.

What exactly is this thing?

It seems to be an illusory existence, but it can touch us. This reminds me of the sentence that Yao Qianwen just said casually: Haunted!

If that's the case, then there's really nothing I can do.

I could only retreat, and Yao Qianwen was also squeezed near the wall by me. Suddenly, with a "click", Yao Qianwen seemed to have touched something, and then she shouted in surprise: "Hey? This door can be opened! ”

The door, which could not be opened all the way, opened by itself.

The instinct to survive made Yao Qianwen take the initiative to pull the door, making the crack crack in the door even bigger.

But inside the door was pitch black, and at first glance, it was impossible to tell the size of the room. I just wanted to take a closer look, but in the darkness of the crack in the door, a bright red tongue suddenly came out!!

I reacted fast enough, and the moment my tongue stuck out, I grabbed one of Yao Qianwen's hands!

But that doesn't seem to work.

The tongue that was shot tied to Yao Qianwen's neck, waist, and thighs, and suddenly forced, directly dragging most of Yao Qianwen's body into the door!
