Chapter Twenty-Five: The Brass Door
I've never seen a non-physical attack. In this hell, almost all of the so-called ghosts encountered are non-physical spirits. This kind of spirit, the black cat usually makes a call, and it can break them.
In my cognition, it is because the black cat's chirping contains a special frequency, which can disrupt the confidential conditions that constitute the ghost body, so the black cat has the ability to restrain the general Yin soldiers and ghosts.
However, at this moment, the black cat actually jumped up and opened its mouth, which is obviously to be solved by force! Can this be done against spirits?
In my astonishment, the black cat pounced. But it is not bitten with the mouth, but with the cat's paw stretched and slapped. The claw slapped on the skull of the red ghost.
As I expected, the cat's claws pierced through the air. I, on the other hand, was slightly disappointed because it didn't solve any problems for me.
However, in the next moment, the moment the black cat landed, the red ghost face suddenly became sluggish, and the original action of swooping to bite the back of my neck was frozen in mid-air.
What's even more bizarre is that I actually used a speed visible to the naked eye to watch the red ghost face gradually fade and turn into the appearance of a white-clothed Yin soldier. The image of the fanged beast face, at this time, also quietly transformed, and turned into a human appearance.
Although it was also a stranger's face, after turning into a white ghost, the force that had restrained me from moving disappeared, and my body was able to break free from the shackles of this spirit and move out.
The white ghost's confused eyes glanced at me and began to fade away, becoming transparent little by little, and finally disappearing completely. After the white ghost disappeared, the black cat, which had been still in an attacking state, suddenly relaxed, lowered its arched back, and jumped on my shoulder again.
It was only at this time that I noticed that the black cat's paws were mottled with blood, and a large clotted blood clot was still attached to it.
No wonder its jumping movement just now was a little sluggish, as if it was very unsmooth, it turned out that one of its claws could not use too much force. At the same time, I also understood why the red ghost face that could imprison my movements was scattered by the black cat's paws.
This is simply the power of black cat blood!
And this black cat, whose spirituality is so powerful, actually knows how to use his own blood to destroy evil spirits.
I feel very lucky to have such a civet in favor of me.
Without the red ghost face's obstruction, I easily stepped on the fifth order. When I reached the fifth step, a huge brass-colored door suddenly appeared in front of me.
The doors were covered with huge nails, and two brass doors were bigger than my head and taller than my height. Under the giant gate, I felt like an ant, with no sense of existence. Even, I felt my own humility and pity.
In front of the door, I was distracted for a while, feeling a little lost in my heart, and my emotions reached a negative state for a while. Looking at the giant gate, I was speechless for a long time, looking back on my past life, some regrets, some sadness.
The events I have experienced in the past are reflected one by one and replayed in my mind. Every plot, every sentence, makes me ashamed and regretful...... The grief and negativity in my heart are also getting deeper and deeper.
Gradually, I felt that it was a mistake for me to come into this world, and maybe I shouldn't have been a thinking person in the first place. Coming to this world will only add troubles, only regrets, and only sorrows. Nobody likes me, no one needs me, my loneliness, I'm superfluous...... I should die, leave this cruel world, go to hell, and purify my soul!
My mind was full of these, and the thought that made me choose to die and purify my soul even made a sound that kept swirling in my head. Against the backdrop of those extremely negative emotions, I literally pulled out the dagger.
But just as I was about to follow the sound and prepare to cut my wrists, the black cat suddenly let out a very soft call. This voice has a very powerful demonic nature, and I listen to it in my ears and resound in my head.
This cat meow, endless tenderness, incomparable warmth. It's as if they're asking me for touch, they're asking me for love. I didn't know what love was, but I knew that if I could touch it, it would be happy.
"Is this what it feels like to be needed? It seems that the world is not so pessimistic! I had such a thought in my negativity, and finally I couldn't help it, reached out and stroked the little head of the black cat.
The black cat squinted and enjoyed it so much that it even stretched out its wet tongue and licked my wrist. At this moment, it was warm, and my cold heart seemed to be washed away by this warm feeling, and my whole body was full of energy.
After that, the black cat stretched out its injured cat's paw and seemed to want to put it on my hand. I put down my hand and caught its paw. Touching its injured claws, I suddenly felt a sense of sadness and distress. The black cat hurt its paws to help me, and I was loved!
Before I knew it, my negative and pessimistic mood gradually dissolved. Soon, my self-confidence filled my empty mind again.
In these few minutes, I felt like I had gone through a lifetime, experienced the test of life and death. Looking at the dagger still in the palm of my hand, I couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
The impact of the giant gate almost ended me up. Now that I look at the gate again, I'm much calmer.
I have a black cat to help, but Yu Qian and the village chief are not having a good time. When I turned my head to look at them, I was so frightened that I desperately hugged Yu Qian beside me.
This girl is actually slashing her wrist with a dagger. Fortunately, in a daze, she used the back of a knife.
However, the village chief's luck was not so good. He didn't have a dagger, he used the sapper shovel. The sapper shovel has a blade at one end and a serrated tooth at the other, and neither side will feel good on the body.
The two of them have been coming up for so long, and Yu Qian used the back of the knife to draw a deep white mark on her wrist. And the village chief, the flesh and blood of the entire left hand are blurred, and the blood does not stop. It seemed to me that his left wrist was going to be broken.
But he was still unconscious, sawing his hand with the jagged edges.
I was terrified, and in a hurry, I flew up and kicked at him, kicking the sapper shovel to the fourth order.
However, this did not seem to have much effect, and under the pessimistic and negative mood, the village chief, who was bent on death, actually bit his scarred wrist with his teeth. Yu Qian in my arms struggled even more violently, and kept shouting: "Let me die!" Let me die! ”
I didn't know they were going to sink into such depth, which can almost all be explained by the madness of looking for death. I hugged Yu Qian tightly and didn't dare to let go, but fortunately, in this mood, she was just begging for death, not hurting, so I was not attacked by her.
But I can't let the village chief go, the village chief at this time has a pale face and obviously has lost too much blood. If there is more than blood to help, there will be one more corpse in front of this temple, and one more ghost in the Yin soldiers.
But I didn't know that this would stop him from self-harming, and it wasn't something that would be good with a kick. The kick I just made not only kicked the sapper shovel down the fourth order, but even the village chief himself also had one foot down. However, he was not free from the influence of the giant gate, and he was still immersed in that emotion.
"Meow!" The black cat whispered in my anxious ear as if to remind me.
I was fighting against Yu Qian's struggle with all my might, and when I was worried that I couldn't help it, the black cat's cry suddenly made me think of the key. The influence of the giant gate is itself, which will make people negative, thinking that they are not recognized by the world, that they are superfluous waste, and that they are damned things. However, a comfort from the black cat can get me out of it, which shows that people who are affected by the giant gate can be safe as long as they get warmth.
I hurriedly turned my head and shouted at the village chief, "Village chief! Lao Liu, Qiangzi, and your daughter, I'm really waiting for you! They need you! ”
My voice ended, and I watched the village chief's frantic biting and stopped. Then the eyes with a look of remorse gradually cleared, and the mood was stable for a while.
After about half a minute, the village chief let go of his wrist, but still held his arm. A pair of honest lips kept shaking, and cold sweat kept flowing in the brain.
"I ...... What am I going to do? The village chief's trembling voice came out of his throat, and apparently, he was already awake. However, he was also frightened by his condition. Of course, he hasn't forgotten what he was like just now.
"Tie your arms, stop the bleeding, bandage! You can't bleed anymore, you're going to die! I said in a deep voice. He was already panicking, and I had to help him.
We don't have hemostats, we don't have bandages. These medical items are all with Zhou Jun. Therefore, I asked the panicked village chief to tear up his clothes directly and bandage them directly with his clothes.
When he dealt with himself, Yu Qian, who I was holding, didn't seem to have come to his senses. Now the remorse is so deep that I can't stop crying, howling and grieving.
I don't know what she's been through, but looking at her like this, I'm really distressed.
"Yu Qian, wake up! I need you! I can't live without you! Wake up! Softly, I whispered in her ear.
Yu Qian's trembling body suddenly stopped, and her eyes were confused, as if she hadn't been able to figure it out. I know she's too deep to understand for a while.
I turned my head sideways, pecked her on the cheek, and then said, "You said that you were born for me, and you can't break your word and abandon me......"
This was said to me that night when she left the archaeological team. I was shocked and couldn't believe it. But now...... I'm still a little numb!
The village chief's bleeding finally stopped, and at this time he was a little prostrate, leaning on the handrail of the stairs, panting.
Yu Qian is still chaotic and chaotic, without clarity. But, at least, she didn't struggle, she didn't shed tears, she didn't scream with remorse.
It was only at this time that I had time to look at the gate in front of me. This gate, still like the red ghost face, only exists in the sense of self, only can be seen by oneself, and does not exist.
The huge brass door is majestic, but it is also eerie. At a glance, it is fluttering and flickering, and there is no distinction between yin and yang. The arrangement of doornails seems to be some kind of permutation, staring at it for a while, I actually get dizzy. On the brass door, there are faintly visible streamer runes, like a cyan dragon snake, swimming on the surface of the giant gate.
Even though I have escaped the negative impact of the giant gate, I still have a terrible feeling when I look at the giant gate carefully at this time.
This door gave me a great sense of fear, and I felt that as long as I touched this door, I would lose the right to live and be free from life and death. Life cannot live, and death cannot die.
And after this door, I felt even more frightened. I couldn't see it, but I could feel the thick air of death. Behind the door, it seems to be the purgatory of the soul, the end of man...... Behind the door, there's another world!
I was finally able to lift my head in utter fear, and looked up at the lintel, where a huge plaque of bright red hung from the peculiar door ornament. The three big characters in the book are strange runes, similar to the ghost scripts of the Yin Book, but I recognize them at a glance, as if this cognitive ability comes from the depths of the soul.
These three words: Ghost Gate!
