Chapter 25: The Little Boy with a Shadow

Jiang Ru pulled the hair on her forehead and said with a smile: "Sister believes in you and will gamble with you." ”

Zheng Fan smiled and nodded, Jiang Ru looked down on him a little at first, his appearance was not good, he had a dick silk temperament, he cowered, and always wanted to hide behind.

But Zheng Fan's performance just now, that wisdom and courage, really impressed her, and faintly gave birth to a trace of admiration and goodwill.

"What about me, what do I do?" Mengyu asked.

Zheng Fan and Jiang Ru walked forward and said without looking back: "You stay here, after five minutes, if we haven't come back, you can run away quickly." ”

"Okay."

Mengyu didn't say much, but there was something wrong in her heart, she was not a person who was greedy for life and afraid of death, just because at such a critical juncture, she couldn't even help at all.

"You follow me closely, listen to my commands, as soon as I say 'throw', you will immediately drip blood on the straw man and throw it behind you, and at the same time use your fastest speed to rush forward with me."

Zheng Fan commanded as he cut the little thumb of his right hand, and black blood fell to the ground one by one.

Urging the fragments, his whole body wrapped in a faint layer of yellow, he walked slowly, his attention focused on his eyes.

He was searching, looking for the long black shadow.

Jiang Ru followed closely behind Zheng Fan, not daring to speak easily, for fear of disturbing Zheng Fan, his left hand was also cut, always ready to fight, and his heart rose to his throat.

After all, whether it is dead or alive depends on this one.

The two walked at a normal walking speed for about five minutes, and suddenly, a long black shadow appeared in their field of vision.

"Don't be afraid, follow me on!"

Zheng Fan said calmly, only to see the black shadow flashing and appearing under the shade of a big tree.

"Sure enough, the black shadow is now within the limit perception range, and I am outside its perception zone, so at such a close distance, it still chose to attack the big tree instead of attacking me."

Zheng Fan's eyes exuded a hint of fine light: "The black shadow is closer to the entrance of the village than when I first encountered it." This shows that it has an ontology. Its main body is slowly moving in the direction of the entrance of the village, and devouring everything around it that has shadows. ”

"Or rather, every time a shadow swallows a shadow, the shadow of its body grows..."

"Ten, nine, eight..."

Zheng Fan began to count down in his heart, and at the same time looked into the distance again, his eyesight was excellent, and he found that some small stones on the ground in the distance had also lost their shadows.

"This dark shadow is the one who can truly devour all things! Whether it has the characteristics of life or not, it is swallowed correctly, and in other words, there is something between heaven and earth that has no shadow? ”

"Three." At this moment, Zheng Fan was only less than six meters away from the black shadow.

"Two." The distance was shortened to three meters.

"Throw!"

At the sound of an order, the dead grass man in Zheng Fan's hand had already been glued with blood and was thrown in front of him.

Jiang Ru did not hesitate, threw the straw man behind him, and then chased Zheng Fan who rushed forward as fast as he could.

"It worked!"

Jiang Ru was very excited, her heart was pounding, this kind of game of racing against death was so exciting that her face couldn't help but blush slightly.

"Ten, nine, eight..."

The moment the straw man took off his hand, Zheng Fan began to count down again, the sun released light and heat in the sky, and the black shadow became more and more pitch black, long, and there was no edge in sight.

The two stepped on the dark shadow, ran wildly as if they were dead, turned into two afterimages, and the scenery around them quickly passed in front of them, not to mention that the speed was comparable to a car, but it was almost the same.

"Click, click!"

The legs have begun to be unable to withstand such a speed, Zheng Fan can feel that the leg bones of the two calves have begun to break, but he doesn't dare to stop, if he stops now, he will really die.

Clenched his steel teeth, he moved on.

Jiang Ru behind her was not much better, but after all, she was a plant-based spirit possessor, and her body's self-healing ability was good, and she could barely keep up with Zheng Fan's speed, and her forehead couldn't help but bead of sweat.

"Three, two, throw!"

With Zheng Fan's order, the two of them once again threw out the dead straw man one after the other. So far, his plan has gone very well.

There are more and more villagers in front of me, without careful calculation, it is roughly estimated that there are one or two hundred people, without exception, those people, there is no shadow.

"Ten, nine, eight..."

Zheng Fan's eyes were red: "Damn, I've run so far, and I still can't see the source!" ”

"Five, four..."

"Zheng Fan!"

Just as Zheng Fan was calculating the time and was about to give the order, Jiang Ru fell to the ground with a pop.

Although she has a good ability to recover, it takes time to recover. With such a high-intensity run, the flesh could not support it at all, and the two legs had been completely broken.

"Throw!"

Although Jiang Ru was hit hard, he was not ambiguous, and at the moment when Zheng Fan gave the order, he threw the last straw man behind him, and Zheng Fan also threw out the straw man in his hand at the same time.

quickly came to Jiang Ru's side, carried her on her back, and while running wildly, he took out two gold bars from his trouser pocket and swallowed them in his mouth.

"I'm sorry for dragging you down."

Jiang Ru said a little apologetically, but her hands were tightly hugging Zheng Fan's neck.

"Breaking your leg won't affect your ability to use plants."

Zheng Fan didn't talk much nonsense, and asked while silently reciting the countdown in his heart. Jiang Ru's ability to make this trip is a crucial part.

"No."

"Okay."

After that, the two of them closed their mouths in unison, between the spirit possessors, there is no need for so much hypocrisy, and if there is a little more distraction at this moment, there will be more danger of death.

Zheng Fan urged the fragments with all his strength, and ran forward desperately, and the softness on his back could not make him have a trace of evil thoughts.

Is this the time to think about that?

Streams of black blood flowed out of Zheng Fan's thighs, and a burst of bone cracking sounded, and a strong pain swept through his body.

Fortunately, his fragments possessed metallic abilities and had extremely strong defenses, otherwise he would have ended up the same as Jiang Ru at this moment.

"Six, five... Did it appear? ”

Zheng Fan's eyes lit up, and he saw a little boy standing quietly fifty meters ahead.

The boy was about six or seven years old, with a small flat head, a somewhat plateau red face, wearing off-white half-cut sleeves, light blue shorts, and a pair of sandals on his feet, without any expression on his face.

The most important thing is that the little boy has a shadow!

It was the shadow that Zheng Fan stepped on, the shadow that could kill a spirit possessor in an instant.

If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, who would have believed that the initiator of this almost inexplicable horror was actually a child who was only six or seven years old?

"Jiang Ru, prepare to attack, it's that little boy!"
