Chapter 287: Strange Corridor
Walking around the corner, darkness falls.
There was endless darkness ahead, and the corridor seemed to spread out in the darkness, with no end, and the place leading to it was not the lady's room but hell, especially the inexplicable cold air emanating from the darkness, which made people's spines chill and scalp tight.
The moment he stepped into the darkness, Lin Fei felt as if he had stepped into another world, a slight sense of panic rose in his heart, the pores on his body were tightly closed, and he was stimulated by the inexplicable atmosphere to form particles. The others were similar to Lin Fei, they were all a little nervous, and their steps were a little scattered, even the priest of the temple and the three masked supernatural powers.
I couldn't help but look back, only to find that the lights in the corridor were getting farther and farther away from me, but the darkness ahead was still endless.
Everyone's spirits were tense, and they moved forward cautiously, Lin Fei quickly adjusted his mood, and looked at the completely faded oil paintings hanging in the corridor by the light of the torches, and was a little surprised.
Although the paintings have faded, some of the blue pigments are still new, and it seems that they were added later.
"Is this blue a new addition?" Lin Fei asked.
Lisa said softly: "Miss likes history and ancient art, and is also very interested in these oil paintings, on the first day of living in the castle, I asked the painter to restore these oil paintings simply, and I was going to continue the restoration, but the young lady was enclosed in the room, because of the evil spirits, those painters were afraid to escape, so these oil paintings did not continue to be restored." ”
Speaking of this, Lisa whispered, "Mr. Film, did you find anything?" ”
"Discovery doesn't count, but I can tell you I don't feel any danger."
"It doesn't matter if it's dangerous or not, as long as I can save Miss Ephelia, I'm willing to pay for my life." Lisa said firmly.
Lisa is Ephelia's personal bodyguard, and when Ephelia comes of age, she can become her guardian knight, and she loves Ephelia very much in her heart, otherwise she would not have braved the snowstorm in the dark night for Ephelia to come.
Lin Fei could see the tiredness on Lisa's face, but he could even feel Lisa's determination, and he was quite moved.
After a long time, Vane stopped again.
The supernatural man with the wolf mask asked, "Why did Master Vane stop?" ”
Lin Fei looked ahead and then at the back, he found that the lights in the corridor behind him looked very far away, and the front was only endless darkness, and the torches in their hands could only illuminate this area within a few feet, it looked like they were more like sailboats in the dark ocean, the front was endless darkness, and the light in the corridor was more like a lighthouse in the darkness.
After a little thought, Lin Fei knew why Wayne had stopped.
At this time, the young and tall temple warrior Clyde frowned and said, "We have walked a total of five hundred and thirty-seven steps on this part of the journey just now. However, according to the topography of the castle, there are corridors that connect the main body of the castle with such a long corridor. And this corridor leading to Miss Ephelia would not exceed two hundred steps at most. ”
Kane, who was in armor, glanced at Clyde and said, "You're right. The young master meant that we didn't have to go any further, because we couldn't get to Miss Ephelia's bedroom. ”
"In this way, we seem to be in a kind of obstacle. According to the normal way of walking, I am afraid that I will not be able to get to Miss Efilia's bedroom. Horn, the Templar Warrior, spoke.
"What then? Go back now? Lisa frowned, and now that Epheria's bedroom was in front of her, she certainly didn't want to go back.
Lin Fei's eyes narrowed, and he clenched the torch in his hand and threw it hard towards the darkness in front of the corridor.
When the others saw Lin Fei's actions, they immediately looked in the direction where the torch was flying.
With a slight sound of breaking through the sky, the torch plunged into the darkness, but strangely enough, the torch grew farther and farther away, gradually turning into a small dot, and then disappearing into the darkness.
Quiescence. Because the torch discarded by Lin Fei has a lot of strength, but it is still within the scope of ordinary people's ability, but this torch did not land, but it seemed to fly straight into the distance without gravity, and what was even more strange was that the bright light of this torch could not penetrate the darkness, and even the surrounding walls could not be illuminated, this brightness was far inferior to the brightness that Lin Fei held in his hand.
Almost everyone looked at this strange scene, and they couldn't help but feel a little frightened in their hearts. Only the temple warriors Clyde and Kane looked at Lin Fei with their heads bowed and contemplative.
The two of them knew that they could throw the torch that far with their strength, but if they were like Lin Fei, so that the torch could be thrown so far without being disturbed by the wind, they couldn't do it.
"Don't be afraid! Since we can't get to Miss Efilia's room, we can go to the catacombs and have a look. Seeing that the atmosphere was a little solemn, Pastor Red said in a deep voice.
"Go back?" The Tiger-Faced Extraordinary Ability said, "You are a priest, can't you solve this situation?" ”
Red glanced at this supernatural ability and sneered: "Of course, the power of miracles must be reserved to deal with evil spirits, you are still supernatural abilities, why don't you use extraordinary power to break this obstacle!" ”
Among the other two Extraordinary Abilities, the Fox-Faced Extraordinary Ability said to Wen En, "Young Master Wayne, wait a minute, watch me use my extraordinary power to break this obstacle." ”
Vane was originally a little disappointed when he saw that Priest Red was going to retreat, but now he was overjoyed when he saw that this mysterious person with extraordinary abilities was about to exert his extraordinary powers, and said, "Please also ask those with extraordinary abilities to cast spells quickly." ”
The supernatural man handed the torch in his hand to the Great Han Kane, and took out a wand about two feet long and the thickness of a finger from his robe, and the wand was pitch black, except for a blue gem set at the top.
After taking out the wand, the supernatural man muttered words in his mouth, and the palm of his other hand opened, and under the gaze of everyone, a blue flame appeared in his palm.
He was wearing gloves, but the flame didn't light the gloves, which showed that this was indeed a supernatural power.
Many of the people present who saw the extraordinary ability of the person for the first time looked at the flame in the hand of the person with the extraordinary ability with amazement, and only Red showed a sneer, which seemed to be very unhappy.
Lin Fei looked at the fox face supernatural ability caster with a puzzled expression, he was a little surprised, according to his opinion, it was obvious that some special spell had been applied in this corridor, this kind of spell could affect so many people in such a large area, it was obviously not a spell that could be cast alone, it was very likely to be a spell similar to the transcendent power enchantment.
All spells that resemble enchantment formations must have materials to assist in casting. It is impossible to be broken by a single transcendent force.
Although Lin Fei had not learned the power of the supernatural, he also knew that this kind of spell had to find the materials to assist the spell casting, and destroy it to be able to break it, otherwise it was likely to have terrifying consequences if he rashly broke this spell.
The supernatural one glanced at Priest Red, stopped the incantation, put his hand to his mouth, and blew lightly.
With a stabbing sound, the flame directly turned into a tongue of fire in the direction of the supernatural ability's blowing, and spurted towards the dark corridor in front of it, with an extremely loud sound.
This kind of warm flame was slightly shocked after everyone saw it. Extraordinary power flame ordinary people can die when touched, even Kane in armor did not have the confidence to be able to hold on to this flame for a few seconds, and couldn't help but show horror to this fox-faced extraordinary ability.
But the next scene surprised everyone.
I saw that after the tongue of fire gushed into the darkness, it brightened all around, but after advancing for a distance, a dense black mist suddenly seeped out of the wall in front of him, and it spread, and the tongue of fire was instantly wrapped in black mist.
The flames were shrouded in black mist, quickly dissipating, and the black mist was more and more, and it was surging towards Lin Fei and the others.
Accompanied by the black mist, there was a seeping sneer from the darkness, and the ensuing dark aura made the torches in everyone's hands dim as well.
"The evil spirit has appeared!" The crowd was shocked.
Kane, as Vane's guardian knight, naturally won't let Vane be harmed, and when he saw the black mist appear in a strange manner, he immediately threw away the torch in his hand, grabbed Vane, and ran the way he came.
That black mist had been swallowed up even by the powerful power of the flames, and Kane didn't think he had what it took to resist it.
Seeing Kane flee with Vane, the Templar Horn also pulled up the priest Red and followed behind Kane, followed by three supernatural beings with masks on their faces. They seemed to be extremely shocked to see that the extraordinary power of the fox-faced supernatural ability was easily engulfed, and when would they not flee at this time? Then the Templar Clyde seemed to react when he saw the supernatural powers fleeing, and he fled with him.
As for Lin Fei and Lisa, they were originally at the back, but at this time, they became the front. The speed of the two of them was not slow, and they ran quickly.
The corridor was not long, and everyone believed that it would only take a dozen seconds to leave the narrow corridor.
But what was frightening was that the piercing and shrill laughter was getting closer and closer, and as the sound got closer and closer, the torches in everyone's hands were eroded by the inexplicable force and became darker and darker. The orange-red flame, which had been larger than a fist, became dimmed, glowing slightly green, and gradually turned from the original scorching heat to the cold.
Everyone understood that the black mist was approaching rapidly, and their spirits tensed for a while.
At this time, Vane pointed ahead with an indifferent expression, Kane's eyes narrowed, and he pulled out the long sword on his waist and stabbed at Lin Fei. As long as someone can stop the black fog for a moment, they have a chance to escape.
But at the moment when he stabbed at Lin Fei, Lin Fei actually seemed to have eyes on his back, and he changed his position like a shapeshift, causing him to stab in the air.
Kane was shocked, but he didn't expect Lin Fei to hide so deeply that he could even dodge his sneak attack.
Lin Fei's method made him feel tricky, knowing that it would be impossible to hurt Lin Fei in a short period of time, but the darkness behind him was getting closer and closer, and a sense of crisis filled his chest, so he changed his move and stabbed Lisa with a sword.
Although Lisa is a martial artist, she is just an ordinary martial artist after all, and she didn't expect Kane behind her to suddenly make a sneak attack, with a muffled snort, she fell to the ground, and her thighs were bleeding nonstop.
Although the others were shocked by Kane's behavior and disdainful in their hearts, they were a little glad in their hearts, and at the same time hoped that Lisa would be able to stop that dark moment.
But to everyone's surprise, Lin Fei, who was originally at the front, stopped, turned around and ran back, stopping at Lisa's side, and in a blink of an eye, the two were engulfed in darkness.
Everyone began to despise Lin Fei for being stupid, but there was joy in their hearts. But then they knew they were wrong, the darkness was not stopped, and just as they were about to flee to the corner of the hallway, the darkness engulfed them, and cold laughter echoed throughout the hallway.
In the black mist, Lisa covered her wound and was shocked and angry and afraid, angry that Kane had shamelessly attacked her, afraid that she heard the faint laughter in the darkness very close, as if it was beside her, which made her feel creepy, so after the initial anger, she only felt deep fear and helplessness.
At this time, she heard a slight footstep, raised her head, and sensed a masculine aura, and before she could ask, she only felt a hand on her thigh, slightly numb, and the pain from the wound was much lessened, and the wound on the leg seemed to be bleeding anymore.
"Is that Mr. Filin?"
The person who came gave a soft "um".
Lin Fei's voice dispelled the fear and helplessness in Lisa's heart, making her heart warm and a little moved. But then she said with some concern: "Mr. Film, you don't have to stay for me!" ”
Lin Fei didn't answer her words, he simply helped her deal with the wound, and advised: "Close your eyes, don't speak, and pretend that you didn't hear anything no matter what you hear." Unless I tapped you on the shoulder three times, even if I told you to open your eyes, you shouldn't open them! ”
Seeing Lin Fei's solemn tone, Lisa nodded heavily.
Lin Fei stood up, put on his hood, and looked at the place where the black mist came out of the corridor, a sneer appeared on his face, and now he had understood something.
At this time, the oil painting on the wall next to Lin Fei revealed a miserable white arm and grabbed at his neck.
But at the moment when that arm was about to catch Lin Fei, Lin Fei's figure was in a trance, turning into a black shadow and sweeping the oil painting, and the arm stiffened and disappeared.
"Sure enough!"
Seeing the pale arm disappear, Lin Fei's face was a little solemn, and his figure shook and turned into a blurred shadow, and then the shadow split into two, like a shadow, quickly swept over each oil painting on the walls on both sides of the corridor, and walked towards Ephelia's room, where the shadow of his incarnation passed, the black mist quickly disappeared.
Finally, Lin Fei came to the door of Ephelia's bedroom and passed through the crack in the door.
When he saw everything in Ephelia's room, Lin Fei's eyes narrowed, revealing a look of understanding.
"It's time to open your eyes!"
After waiting for a long time, Lisa felt that her body was slapped three times, and she heard Lin Fei's voice again, and opened her eyes. At this time, although the corridor was still dim, it was no longer as dark as before, and the figure could barely be seen.
"Mr. Film, are you alright?" Lisa looked at Lin Fei and asked with concern.
Lin Fei said: "I'm fine. ”
Lisa saw that Lin Fei was fine, so she was relieved, and then she remembered what Kane had attacked just now, and the anger in her heart surged out, and she looked at the corridor where she came, and found that the black fog there had dissipated, and Vane's group had disappeared.
"What about them?" There was a chill in her puzzled tone, but then she thought of something, and said with a pale face: "Could it be that they have all been captured by evil spirits?" ”
Lin Fei shook his head: "Evil spirits? No, they were not captured by evil spirits. Someone died, though! ”。
"Someone died?" Lisa was taken aback and saw Lin Fei walking forward, so she followed.
When I reached the corner of the corridor, the ground was covered with blood, and there were two long blood stains, which directly sank into the corner of the corridor.
