Chapter 313: Four Gates
The flames of the menorah burned violently, from the original dark green to bright red, especially the eyes of the tanuki flashed dark green, the color of the eyeballs was exactly the same as the eyes of the giant cat statue, the small lampstand spat out a half-meter-high flame, but the temperature around it became even colder.
The flames reflected my cheeks and eyes, and the open mouth of the tanuki on the lampstand suddenly closed, and the sharp fangs bit off a piece of flesh in my palm, and the cat's mouth on the tanuki lampstand was stained with blood, which made the flames bigger and more weird, especially the color of blood, as if this flame was not burning oil, but human blood, or rather, it was burning with my blood.
The wound in the palm of my hand has been scarred, the stone wall at the end of the passage slowly rose, and it was dark in my eyes, and the smell of fishy and moldy emanated from it, I frowned, how could the environment be so bad here, so would Song Junhe really be inside?
Meow, meow.
There was a cat meow in my ears, and I immediately became alert, although I quickly killed more than a dozen tanuki just now, I still can't take it lightly, who knows how many of them will be, and the ninety-nine sacrificial tanuki are estimated to be only a small part.
The female ghost in the red dress walked in first, and as soon as I walked in, I heard someone shouting behind me, and I looked back and saw that it was the fire ghost, and the fire ghost strode towards me, and the ghost fire on his body flew backwards like dragging a long tail.
"Qin Ling, come out quickly, you will die."
I stopped when I heard the words of the Burning Ghost, and wanted to wait for the Burning Ghost to come up and ask about the situation, it seemed that the Burning Ghost should know something about this place, but just as I was standing there waiting for the Burning Ghost, the Burning Ghost suddenly slowed down, and his running speed decreased significantly, as if he was being pulled by something.
With a snap, my trouser belt was grabbed tightly by the hand of the female ghost in the red dress, and then I was pulled to her side, and just as I was about to ask the female ghost in the red dress why she was pulling me, a heavy stone wall one meter wide fell from where I was standing just now.
I gasped, if I had been standing there waiting for the Burning Ghost just now, I must have been crushed into a meatloaf by the heavy stone wall now, remembering the sudden appearance of the Burning Ghost just now, when I walked under the heavy stone wall, and he suddenly slowed down when he ran, and now it seems that he was delaying time so that I could stand there and wait to be smashed.
Is the fire demon trying to kill me?
I frowned a little puzzled, the Fire Burning Ghost is here to save my daughter, and my purpose is the same, even if I want to harm me, I should wait until I save Xiao Ran, could it be that the Fire Burning Ghost's consciousness is controlled by the Blood Seeping Ghost again?
But looking at the appearance of the fire ghost just now, the ghost fire in his eyes and body is dark green, and there is no blood flowing out of the bones, so he should not be controlled by the power of the blood ghost, so why did the fire ghost kill me?
I can't figure it out, the heavy stone wall has completely fallen to the ground, and there is also a tanuki lampstand inside, but it is not green but red, and the lamp oil in the lampstand is very viscous, like coagulated blood, and the lamp oil is very full, and it actually flows out of it with the burning of the flames, and scatters it on the stone wall to draw a few terrifying lines.
"There are three more gates here." The words of the female ghost in the red dress made me turn my attention away from the stone wall and take a formal look at the space.
This is a square room, to be precise, there are four doors, there is a stone door in the middle of each wall, and there is a tanuki lampstand inlaid on the stone door, burning with dark red flames, and the red lamp oil overflows from the lampstand and flows down the stone door, making the real room seem more strange and terrifying, and a silent depression permeates the heart and lingers.
Except for the stone gate that just came in, the remaining three doors don't know where to go at all, maybe behind the stone gate is a large group of crazy tanuki, or maybe it's weird and terrifying formations and mechanisms.
"Which door should we go through?" The female ghost in the red dress said to me, although she is a thousand-year-old female ghost, but she still flatters the mentality of feudal society, everything is made with men as the center, at home from the father, married from the husband, and the husband from the son, even if in her heart I am his child, she has no objection to my decision.
I glanced at it casually, the magic of the Kangbo Wooden Sword was still open, and I didn't think about it at all, so I casually pointed to the door opposite and said, "That's it." ”
"Kid, how can you be so sure?" The female ghost in the red dress was a little surprised, and looked at me with trembling eyes, with surprise and relief in her eyes.
I carved a mark on the door with my wooden sword, and then walked to the selected stone gate, "Actually, there is nothing to choose from, we don't know the structure of this place, and we don't know who is here, so it's better to hit the luck than to think about it, if someone gets in the way, just kill and break through." ”
The female ghost in the red dress sighed: "I thought you saw something. ”
The female ghost in the red dress didn't say the next words, but there was a little uneasiness and concern in her eyes, I knew in my heart that the female ghost in the red dress was worried about the demonic nature of the Kangbo Wooden Sword, but now I can't stimulate the divine attribute to suppress the demonic nature.
Grabbed the tanuki lampstand and twisted it hard, the second heavy stone door slowly lifted up, this time it was not a dark area, but a huge cave, this cave is more than thirty meters wide, the uneven stone wall is full of holes of different sizes, the hole is circular and extends very deep.
The ground is covered in gray stone dust and dust, and there are not many traces of man-made construction at all, this place is more like a large cave formed naturally.
I walked a few steps forward, and saw a lot of gray-black hairs on the ground, pinches of them could be seen everywhere, and I could see a skeleton of about a foot when I walked through the stone dust and dust accumulated on the ground. ”
At this moment, there was a noisy chattering sound around, and the reddish eyes flashed in the holes in the stone walls, and at a cursory glance, thousands of large rats stuck out of the holes with pointed heads, and their long front teeth were like knives flashing with a shiny cold light.
I gasped, this is too much, if so many rats rush together, then I will not be gnawed up, but before I can turn my thoughts, I heard those rats suddenly scream sharply, and thousands of large rats more than a foot long jumped down from the stone wall at the same time, and fell to the ground and raised a sky full of smoke, they poured from the smoke like a tide.
