Chapter 362: No Solution
Wan Peng looked at Luo Ming with a puzzled expression.
Luo Ming said: "It's useless for you to do this, this kid is a ghost, and ordinary doors naturally can't stop ghosts, and it's not this door panel that makes him dare not enter, but the spell on this lock." ”
Wan Peng looked at the lock, but didn't seem to see anything, so he asked Luo Ming again: "Then what should I do?" ”
Luo Ming said: "It's simple, just smash the lock first and then smash the door, because when the door and lock are there, you can see that the spell is cast on the lock, in other words, this lock is the eye of this small magic circle, if you smash the door first, then this array will be hidden, and then you want to find a way to crack this spell, you have to waste a lot of effort." ”
Wan Peng said: "I see, what should I do with this lock?" ”
Luo Ming said: "Just follow your method, violently destroy, and smash it directly." ”
Wan Peng smiled and said, "Okay." ”
Then Wan Peng pulled out the stick, shook the stick, shook it up, and the stick hit the lock heavily, thinking that the old lock would fall directly to the ground, but the lock didn't move, but the child screamed and rolled directly to the ground. On the child's body, a heavy black scar appeared, and from the black scar, a pale black mist continued to seep out.
The three of us were shocked, Wan Peng hurried to help the child, but the child was just a virtual body, Wan Peng's hand passed directly through his body, but he couldn't help the child up at all.
Luo Ming took out a talisman and recited a few words of incantation to throw it at the child, and after the talisman paper left Luo Ming's hand, it quickly began to become translucent, and changed shape, covering the black wound on the child's body.
Although the black wound was still shocking, at least it no longer seeped black gas.
Wan Peng looked at the cinnabar slinger in his hand, as if he couldn't believe what was happening in front of him, and said, "What's going on?" I was attacking the lock, but how did the stick seem to hit the child? ”
Luo Ming said: "This is exactly the cruelty of the mother-in-law of Qianxiao, she should have put something in her own home, and this thing, for other souls, is very important, in order to prevent these souls from secretly taking away that kind of thing, so she tied the life of these souls to the lock spell of the gatekeeper, attacking this lock is equivalent to attacking these souls, unless these souls are all astigmatized, otherwise this lock cannot be destroyed."
And the soul bound to the lock is definitely not only this child, this child's soul is so weak, if there is no other soul to share with the stick you just now, all hit him, it is definitely enough for his soul to fly away.
However, this spell should be closer to the lock, the greater the damage received, so he is still seriously injured. ”
Wan Peng said: "So, the attack I just now was indeed transferred to this child? Wouldn't this matter become inexplicable, and if you want to get in, you have to destroy this lock, but this lock will transfer all the damage to these souls. Is there no way to stop the transfer of damage from this lock? ”
Luo Ming said: "No, or I don't have that ability." If it's another Wan Peng here, he should be able to crack this damage transfer, but it's a pity that you're not, although you are also a dragon and phoenix among people, you can fight hard with the big demon with a magic weapon casually, and you have to go around when you see a general ghost, but after all, you are still different from him, and you can't replace him. ”
Luo Ming's eyes flashed with a hint of loneliness and helplessness, then he looked at the child again, and said, "This thing is very important to you, do you have to get it?" ”
The kid thought for a moment, then nodded earnestly.
I said, "Is the spell on this lock blessed by Granny Qiansha?" Mother-in-law is already dead, shouldn't the spell she blessed be invalidated? Why wasn't the spell affected in any way? ”
Luo Ming said: "Some spells are indeed as you said, after the main body of the blessing spell dies, the spell also dies, but there are also some that are more special, just like someone set a password when they were alive, and when the person dies, this password will not be directly invalid, but will become unsolvable forever." ”
After speaking, Luo Ming looked at the child with an apologetic face and said, "It's not that we don't help you, it's true that our ability is limited, and I can't break this spell." ”
Wan Peng said with some annoyance: "How can this be, I knew that if this was the case, I would have left that old woman alive at that time, and now that she is dead, what will these people who are trapped by her do?" ”
Looking at Wan Peng's chagrin, Luo Ming's frustration, and the despair in the child's eyes, I wanted to comfort them, and wanted to tell them that things might not be as bad as they thought, but I couldn't think of how to comfort them for a while, so I squeezed out a sentence:
"Things don't have to be unsolvable, it's true that the mother-in-law is dead, but the password she set is not necessarily the only one who knows, she is an old woman with a bad brain, maybe she is afraid that she will forget the password, and tell someone close to her, or write it somewhere."
In fact, I also know that my words are not convincing at all, and they are even pure nonsense, Luo Ming's statement about the password is just an analogy, the purpose is to let me know that after the death of the mother-in-law, the spell is still effective, but the spell is definitely impossible to tell others like the password, and it is impossible to find a book to write down the method of cracking the spell.
But after hearing my words, Wan Peng's eyes suddenly lit up and said: "Yes, although Qianxiao's mother-in-law is dead, she is not necessarily the only one who can break her spell, doesn't she have a grandson?" Since the souls of the people in this village are still there, then the soul of her grandson should not be dispersed, and her grandson may know how to crack it. ”
Luo Ming said: "It is indeed very likely that her grandson knows the way to crack it, but after the death of Qianxiao's mother-in-law, her grandson knows that there is a hard stubble in this village that cannot be dealt with, so it must be hidden, this is their lair, they have been entrenched here for decades, and it is not so easy to find him." And if my guess is correct, he is now hiding in this courtyard, and if you want to find him, you also need to break the lock first. ”
We don't know what this kid wants to get from this house, but we can tell from his eyes that it is really important to him, and we really want to help him now. We don't get any money from him, but we really want to do something for such a poor child.
Now that all the roads are blocked, it seems that there is no other way than Wan Peng to throw away his disguise and use his magic powers to break this lock. But if Wan Peng exerts his magical powers, Wan Peng's identity will be exposed, and all the previous achievements will be wasted.
If Wan Peng's identity is exposed now, then it is likely that he will not be able to find out who wants to cure Luo Ming's death, but if Wan Peng does not reveal his identity, he will not be able to help this poor child.
Luo Ming's matter is indeed very important, and Wan Peng also needs Luo Ming to help him solve his confusion, but what about this child, because of his weakness, because he can't give us any reward, should we choose to ignore his request?
Perhaps, we are the only people he can turn to, if we don't help him, there is no one who can help him open this lock, and this lock is bound to many ghosts, then it is very likely that the things in this courtyard are of great significance to these ghosts, and they all need us to open this lock.
Seeing Wan Peng's frowns, he probably is also entangled now, and I don't know if I should persuade him to give up pretending to help this poor child.
None of the three of them spoke, just standing silently at the door.
Suddenly, Wan Peng said: "I thought of it, I thought of a way, Mr. Luo, I know how to force the grandson of the mother-in-law to show up." ”
