【031】 Mist
The basement was bright, the corpses of the previous ones were gone, and the ground glowed with an eerie sheen. It was the sheen of the terrazzo floor, which was very different from what I had seen before. Under their superficial consciousness and perception, there was some confusion for a while. In a trance, I felt that the real world was below, and the position I stood in was the staircase to the sky, or even the gate to hell that led to no prohibition.
There was a burst of rustling sounds, and there was a crisp sound, and a rickety back, a hateful and terrifying face appeared in the sight of the three of them. Aren't these walking corpses the same ones I saw before? Zhong Kui knew, and Zuo Xiaomu also knew.
The former is Mr. Ghost Hunt, who is fearless.
The latter was an outsider, and he only felt a moment of coldness and decay in the darkness. In addition, his current state of mind is out of disorder, like a demented person, and he has no idea what fear is.
The one who was most scared belonged to Boss Xu, who looked at him in horror with a mechanical shape, a crooked braincase, and a distorted face. With his hands vertical, he looked like a ghost, and he was pointing directly at the monster that was coming towards them, and he couldn't shout with his mouth wide open.
Zhong Kui didn't have time to think about it, he couldn't be distracted......
"Let's go...... Let's go...... "One of the ghost leaders who walked in front suddenly twisted his neck, stiffened his neck and shouted at them. The eerie and eerie atmosphere embraced the three of them, and they didn't dare to make a sound.
Suddenly, the shouting 'person,' suddenly stretched out a pair of white Sensen's hands, grabbed the shouting person's mouth and pulled it. The ghost who had warned them suddenly disappeared before their eyes, and the vanished ghost was like air, blinking away...... The ground continued to increase the number of ghosts, one by one, like hungry wolves, watching them with fierce eyes.
"Goo, God......" Boss Xu swallowed his saliva and roared nervously. I didn't dare to continue looking, and I was expecting a miracle to appear.
Zuo Xiaomu's mouth was like chanting a mantra, and he kept saying; "She's coming...... Here she comes...... Here she comes. ”
Zhong Kui couldn't be distracted and continued to exert his strength. The sound of him stepping vigorously on the stairs. The blade of the sword pinched by the fingers cut through the belly of the finger and a little bead of blood appeared, and at the point of the blade, there was a loud 'boom'.
With a loud bang, a gap appeared in their sight, and from the gap came a smoky object. Zhong Kui didn't have time to see clearly where the open opening was, so he grabbed Zuo Xiaomu and rushed into the smoke with Boss Xu.
After rushing inside, smoke curled around them, crawling slowly and with life. When they stabilized their figures, they looked out and saw that they did not see the environment they had foreseen under the mist of thin sand.
Other words; They themselves didn't know where they were now, and when Zhong Kui cracked the ghost wall just now, they came to another unfamiliar environment.
The unfamiliar environment is known only to Zhong Kui. They didn't escape the ecstasy array set up by the ghosts at all, and the cracking just now just ran from one trap to another.
It was surrounded by a white mist, with no boundaries and no physical shapes. They seemed to be completely in a world of mist, and a wave of cold and cold struck, and everyone felt so cold and cold.
"Follow me." Zhong Kui whispered.
"What is this place?" Boss Xu was so nervous that he trembled all over, his teeth chattered, and he looked at Zhong Kui in the mist with a blank look and asked.
Zuo Xiaomu next to him seemed to be awake, and he didn't continue to chatter, his eyes flashed in a panic. With a puzzled face, he looked at the two of them and said, "You guys...... Me, where is this? He muttered nervously, and the whole person still lacked a kind of human vitality.
"I don't know where this is for now, you two don't get impatient." Zhong Kui tried to figure out the exact location of this place.
Close your eyes and try your best to repel external distractions. The mind is searching...... In the mist, there is a hidden evil force. Oh, my God! Have they come to the Netherworld?
It would be terrible if you came to the Netherworld, which is an independent spatial system. It does not belong to the Three Realms, nor does it belong to the management of the underworld, even black and white impermanence cannot interfere in the affairs here.
Zhong Kui stared vigilantly at the constantly sultry and changing mist, and his fingers subconsciously clenched the hilt of the sword. Secretly accumulating energy sources, silently reciting the enchantment body protection spell in his mouth, temporarily protecting the true qi and primordial spirit of the three people.
Boss Xu and Zuo Xiaomu followed him closely, their eyes full of fear and glanced around in a panic, hoping to see something. Even if it's a mouse, a cockroach is fine.
In the real world, rats and cockroaches are the most disgusting insects for people, but they are also living organisms that symbolize life. If there are rats and cockroaches here, then things are not as bad as expected.
It's a pity that they walked all the way, looking all the way, except for the fog in their eyes. Not a single living creature was seen, not even a single mosquito.
The mist filled the air, like a large mouth, slowly devouring the body temperature of the three people. More and more, they felt that the temperature on their bodies was slowly disappearing, and the cold sensation made them feel that their arms were about to stiffen.
There was no physical appearance, his eyes were full of mist, and Zhong Kui was also bewitched by the fog in front of him. At this moment, he is useless and cannot exert his ultimate energy.
Suddenly, Boss Xu's exclamation came from the silence.
Zhong Kui closed his gaze and followed his gaze.
In the mist stood a 'man'.
Zuo Xiaomu was so frightened that he hurriedly hid behind Zhong Kui, but his eyes still couldn't help but look at the 'person' who was standing in place.
Zhong Kui stared at the 'person' standing in the mist, and suddenly grabbed Zuo Xiaomu with his backhand and sent him forward......
Zuo Xiaomu stood unsteadily, stumbled and rushed directly towards that 'person'.
"What are you doing?" Boss Xu exclaimed.
"That 'person' is Zuo Xiaomu's soul." Zhong Kui's condensed demeanor did not look at Boss Xu, but watched Zuo Xiaomu pounce on that 'person'.
Really; When Zuo Xiaomu pounced on that 'person', the two bodies in the mist merged into one.
Zuo Xiaomu, who was behind the two of them, looked at the two people who were staring at him. His eyes were full of confusion, and his face was full of puzzled and surprised, and he shouted, "Boss Xu? Zhong Kui? ”
Boss Xu nodded and gave Zhong Kui a hurried glance. The question in his eyes was exposed: Why do you know that this person is Zuo Xiaomu's soul?
"If you think about it, you can understand, Zuo Xiaomu has been away from you for so long, why didn't he call you, and when he saw me, he didn't have a big reaction. That's because there is still a soul that has not returned to its place. ”
"Oh!"
"Then why are we here?" Boss Xu continued to question.
"I don't know, you should know better than anyone else."
"Me?" Boss Xu was surprised.
"Yes." Zhong Kui didn't bother to continue explaining, he walked straight forward.
Boss Xu and Zuo Xiaomu stared at each other, knowing in their hearts, but they didn't make a sound.
