Chapter 301: Spirit Knocks on the Door
Seeing that I didn't speak, Lao Yu continued: "Although I didn't hear whose voice that person was, I knew that the person who spoke was a woman. ”
Is it a woman?
Except for Xu Xiaoyao and Xu Xiaoqin, there should be no other women here, the person who followed Old Man Liu, looking at his walking posture, does not look like a woman with his body shape.
Could it be that the person who sent the message to Xu Xiaoqin from the beginning was Xu Xiaoyao? If it was really her, then she chose us now instead of Old Man Liu, which makes me wonder, what is her purpose? Or is she also here for the power of the Divine Bead in my body?
Just when Lao Yu was about to say something to me, there was a sudden sound of dragging chains by the beach, and a bloody wind blew from the sea. The bonfire, which had been very small, suddenly exploded at this moment, and the flames gradually turned into a dark green, and the main beach was instantly shrouded in green.
The flames skyrocketed green, and it was clear that a ghost was approaching!
"Oh my God! They really came over. Lao Yu's hands shook in fright, and the wine bottle he was holding also slammed to the ground, and the clear wine suddenly turned blood red.
The wine turns bloody, this is not only a sign of hell, but also a big murderer! Lao Yu's face suddenly became extremely ugly: "Brother Zhengxin, I'd better go first, you can take care of yourself." ”
When Lao Yu was just about to get up and leave, he was grabbed by me, "Don't go anywhere, this ghost may not have come to you, what are you afraid of?" ”
"What?" Lao Yu looked at me with some suspicion, and I lowered my voice and scolded: "You calm down first, those ghosts should be going to the ghost gate, let's take a look first." ”
As I spoke, the sound of chains dragging was getting closer and closer, and at first there was only one place where the sound of chains could be heard, but as time went on, the sounds sounded from all directions, as if hundreds of people were dragging chains on the sea.
Lao Yu couldn't bear it anymore, and asked, "Brother Zhengxin, what's going on with this voice?" ”
I said coldly, "It's a ghost knocking on the door." I can tell you, the more you have to be calm at such times, you don't care about anything, just think that I won't die here, don't go out and see, or you will be the first to die. ”
In ancient times, there was a special rule when the jailer was in prison, and some of the rules are difficult to understand at a time like this, and the chain knocking on the door is one of them.
When a chain knocks on the door, it is a guillotine chain. According to rumors, every time before the jailer's execution, a jailer led the way in front, and the jailer who followed him dragged the iron chain, and every time the iron chain knocked on an iron door, it was to remind the prisoner in the prison not to make trouble in the prison, and repeatedly pulled the iron chain and knocked on the same door, which was to tell him, you should come out and die.
There is another way of saying that the chain knocks on the door, which is to find a stand-in in prison who should not have died, but who wants to die for someone else.
In ancient times, most of the officials in charge of building prisons and beheading people didn't know what death row inmates looked like, and the family members of those who should have died would buy off the jailers and let someone else die for that person.
At this time, the jailer will also use the way of knocking on the door with an iron chain, that is, the jailer stops in front of a cell and keeps knocking on the iron door with an iron chain, some prisoners with strong psychological defense will not be able to hear, and the jailer will replace the next person if he is impatient, and the person with weak psychological defense will beg the jailer for mercy, but as long as he opens his mouth to beg for mercy, he will definitely be selected to become a stand-in.
And now the constant sound of chains on the surface of the sea speaks volumes about my thoughts.
After a while, the sound of the chain dragging became louder and faster, and it suddenly sounded as if the sound of the chain dragging had drowned out the sound of the waves. The old man beside me was trembling with fright, but he still gritted his teeth and didn't dare to make a sound, for fear that the ghost would find him.
I knew in my heart that this was a ghost knocking on the door, but listening to this sound, my heart became more and more irritable, and the power of the divine bead in my body was also a little uncontrollable, and I couldn't wait to urge the power of the divine bead to kill the ghost dragging the chain in one fell swoop.
Just when I was about to lose control of the power of the Divine Bead in my body, Xu Xiaoqin suddenly covered her ears and shouted, "I'm annoyed!" Sick of it! Don't put it off any longer! ”
Finished!
I was shocked, and I heard the sound of dragging chains on the sea suddenly stopped, but in a moment, the sound of chains rushed towards Xiao Cheng's tent like a torrent.
I was just about to stand up, when someone suddenly shouted from the direction of the camp where the ghost gate was stationed: "The surname is Yu, what are you doing to eat?" Why don't you do it yet? ”
That person's voice was extremely loud, and because of this, the chains that were originally rushing towards Xiao Cheng suddenly turned their heads and rushed in the direction of the ghost gate.
In an instant, a group of ghosts dressed as servants stood outside the ghost camp out of thin air with iron chains in their hands, and a ghost raised the iron chain in his hand and directly wrapped it around the neck of the person who spoke just now in the crowd, and instantly dragged the person out, and the person lost the ability to resist, and was dragged to the sea alive by the officials.
The group of servants dragged people, that person was a disciple of the ghost sect, how could Bai Wuchang watch his people being taken away, and with an order, he rushed directly to the ghost with his disciples.
The few people who rushed to the front did not dare to clash with the ghosts head-on, but threw a few runes not far from them. The rune paper blessed by spiritual power flew straight towards the ghost as if it had spirituality, and the official standing at the back probably sensed something, and when he turned around suddenly, he waved the iron chain in his hand vigorously, and waved it without even looking at it.
Dozens of iron chains were waved out in unison, and those spirit runes that would have hit them were hit back by the ghost's yin qi at that moment, and the rain-dense rune paper instantly turned around and headed towards the ghost disciples.
I stood in the distance, and I couldn't help but gasp when I saw this scene, and all the people who saw the ghost door fled in all directions at that moment. The rune paper they scattered was all infused with spiritual power, and the rune paper shrouded in yin qi was beaten back again, and the power should not be underestimated.
The speed of the rune paper flying was very fast, and the people of the ghost gate had no way to avoid it, so they could only urge the spiritual power to resist these rune papers with their bodies, and the people behind all retreated to a safe distance, leaving enough space for those people to deal with.
Unexpectedly, the rune paper did not explode, but slowly fell on the body of the ghost disciple like a pile of leaves fluttering in the wind.
