250. Soul (Thank you @pingguohu for the diamond)
When he heard what Sheng Shiyao said, he couldn't help but ask, "Is he really poisoned?" "No wonder I'm unconscious.
After waiting for a while, there was no response, and I was looking up in confusion when I heard him ask unpleasantly, "Why do you care so much about him?" I was a little puzzled, and replied honestly: "He came to Fuxian Lake with us, isn't he also a companion." It's so dangerous here, with a little more strength, he can resist foreign enemies together. ”
Sheng Shiyao was silent, and when he spoke again, his voice was clear: "His face is black, and his exposed skin has turned black, he looks like he has been poisoned, but he was actually washed away by the corpse." There was rubble scattered all around the place, and it was clear that there had been a fight, and it was fierce. can hurt Yu like this, the other party must be very powerful. ”
"That said, there is a danger in each of these rifts, and it is even possible that each layer has a mechanism or a ferocious ghost. I don't know what Zhuang Yu encountered, and where did that thing go now? I suddenly thought of something, my heart sank, and I couldn't help exclaiming: "Ah, Zhou Tong them! What if they also separate and are alone in some rift? ”
The group of so-called ghosts and ghosts just now attacked, and a group of us were almost unable to parry, not to mention that everyone was separated into different rifts, as long as one person was left alone, it would be difficult to deal with in danger. And what if it's down to the bottom? It's almost submerged in sand. Thinking about it made me anxious and anxious.
But Sheng Shiyao said: "They are all still in the original room, and you are the only one who suddenly disappeared mysteriously just now." ”
"Huh?" I was stunned, and I disappeared alone? "You're saying they're all next door, too? But why didn't anyone come? "Sheng Shiyao has been here for a while, and it stands to reason that other people should have come over if they were next door, but I listened carefully, and I didn't hear any movement next to me, not even talking.
Soon Sheng Shiyao solved my confusion, he said: "Don't listen, there is no one over there, after you suddenly disappeared, I used secret techniques to tear apart the cracks layer by layer and came to you." I'll use my induction to probe your location on each floor, and it's not until the next floor that I finally hear you shouting, and the two layers are thin so your voice can be heard. ”
I felt a dullness in my heart and asked, "Are there some compartments that are very thick?" He replied softly, and the dullness escalated, and when I suddenly disappeared, he immediately thought that there was something wrong with the spatial rift twisting, and for some reason I was taken to another dimension, and then he was in a hurry, desperate to tear open the rift and try to come to me. It would be more than an hour to come in, and during this time, he was desperately exhausted of his ability, and he was afraid that something would happen to me when he came a moment late.
Sheng Shiyao always does more than he says, and every time he does it for me, he does not hesitate. lowered his eyes slightly, not letting him notice the wetness in the corners of his eyes, but the slightly cool fingertips wiped the corners of his eyes, and he sighed lightly: "What are you thinking about again?" I'm naturally anxious to find you when you're gone, tearing open the rift and searching blindly, although it takes a lot of ability, but as long as you're okay, it's fine. ”
As soon as I was emotional, I couldn't help but throw myself into his arms, and was about to speak, when I suddenly heard Zhuang Yu's cold voice below: "You two want you to stop me in front of you, okay?" My body stiffened, and I quickly sat up straight from Sheng Shiyao's arms, and asked a little embarrassedly, "Are you awake?" Zhuang Yu snorted coldly, ignored me, and only said disapprovingly to Sheng Shiyao: "Yao, if you use your ability like this, you will definitely not have enough strength when you encounter a demonic soul later." ”
"Spirits?" Sheng Shiyao asked. Zhuang Yu said: "Otherwise, you think I will be so poor? Every hour and forty-five minutes, the Evil Spirit appears and disappears after fifteen minutes, and I've been fighting it a few times since I came together for exactly two hours. It has no real form, it is just a cloud of black qi, and when it attacks people, it will turn into a demonic form, but whenever it is touched by its black qi, its ability will be weakened by one point. The last time I fought it, I was at the end of my crossbow, and I could only hold out until it was gone, and then I passed out. ”
Showing up every hour and forty-five minutes? It's been more than an hour since I came in, and I don't know how long it's been since the soul disappeared, which means that the soul may appear in the next second?
Suddenly, the nerves that had been relaxed tensed, and when a foul smell gradually smelled, I knew that Zhuang Yu didn't tell us, and that thing was coming. At this time, Zhuang Yu had been helped to sit up, leaning against a wall, he categorically could no longer fight with the evil spirit, only Sheng Shiyao had combat power here, and I could only use the shadow moon to support me. It was obvious that the air flow was approaching this side, and Sheng Shiyao rushed forward to make a move, and I could see his figure at most constantly wandering, so as to judge the trend of the demonic spirit.
I kept hearing the sound of debris being shot down, and basically Sheng Shiyao kept the distance between me and Zhuang Yu above three meters, and he seemed to be trying his best not to force the demon over. I never thought fifteen minutes was such a long time, and my grip on the hilt of the knife was so tight that I wanted to rush forward and help.
Finally, after fifteen minutes of torment, the stench of the space suddenly dissipated, and the time was extremely accurate. Sheng Shiyao retreated, the heat of his body rushed in, and Zhuang Yu said in a deep voice: "Yao, I'm afraid you can only top it three times like this, and the next time will be more difficult than the last." ”
Sheng Shiyao said: "Three times is enough, you have dealt with it three times before, each time is two hours, six times is twelve hours, just the time limit for the torsion of the rift." Zhuang Yu was surprised and asked, "How do you know that the time limit is twelve hours?" ”
"Inferred from the time you were with your woman before to the time you were apart."
"Have you seen Ning Yi? Where is she? Is there something wrong? Zhuang Yu hurriedly asked a few questions. I replied instead of Sheng Shiyao: "More than an hour ago, we met Ning Yi, she was not injured, and now she is with the big team. ”
"And how did you get here? Isn't it because of the rift shift? ”
I still haven't figured out why I'm the only one who entered the rift. In terms of time, I should have disappeared from the sand house at six-hour intervals, which is half the difference from the twelve-hour system.
Sheng Shiyao pondered for a moment and said, "There is only one reason why you will escape into the spatial rift in advance, and that is how you are different from us, and at that time, except for you who were bitten by ghosts, none of us were. So it is likely that it was caused by the wound on the back of your hand, and of course, it cannot be ruled out that your own turbidity is induced by the spatial magnetic field. ”
"Ghosts?" Zhuang Yu asked suspiciously, "What did you encounter?" After Sheng Shiyao briefly described the previous general situation, Zhuang Yu suddenly said: "That's it, Yao, you should see why this evil soul exists, it is not an inherent form, but there are many changes, after listening to what you said, I immediately understood that this evil soul is actually the soul of the ghost you encounter condensed together, and what you encounter is a ghost without a soul." Cheng Xiao came to this rift precisely because he was infected with the evil qi of the ghost, and then he was pulled by the evil spirit. ”
I was amazed, "Isn't that a horde of ghosts gathered together?" Zhuang Yu said affirmatively: "That's right, so that the two can communicate with each other." And you say that the ghosts weren't in the sand room in the first place, but were led by the pangolin's burrow, so if I'm right, the ghosts may be nearby, and they come out of their bodies every hour and forty-five minutes and come together and rush into the room. Fifteen minutes later, the soul returned to the body, and the time of leaving the soul must not be long, so the group of ghosts came fiercely and suddenly fled. Remember, did the ghost attack you take about fifteen minutes? ”
There is no need to think about it, it is indeed about a moment of time, so it has already proved Zhuang Yu's speculation. Now the question is how to deal with the next wave of Spirits. Nearly an hour passed after talking and discussing, which meant that there was only one hour left to think of countermeasures. I first proposed to hide in the next room where Sheng Shiyao came just now, but he immediately shook his head and vetoed, telling me that there is an essential difference between tearing open the rift and pushing open the wall, and that the next door is the same rift space as we are now, and since the evil soul exists in the space, it is impossible to avoid it.
Unless we go to another spatial rift, but Sheng Shiyao has consumed a lot of abilities just now to find me, and he fought with the evil soul more than an hour ago, and at this time, the ability is no longer as Zhuang Yu said.
As the minutes ticked by, we never thought of a better way, and the second round of the Evil Soul Invasion had arrived. This time, compared to the danger just now, he could feel the evil qi coming to his face several times, but he was blocked by Sheng Shiyao with his body and forcibly blocked it back, but it was obvious that his body trembled. I clenched and didn't make a sound at all, ready to meet the soul when it came, but there was no bottom in my heart, just now a ghost could hurt me to the back of my hand and immediately numb, what kind of concept is the soul of countless ghosts, which is equivalent to Sheng Shiyao in a dozen groups.
In the fog, you can see that the black mist of the evil soul covers a very large area, and suddenly Sheng Shiyao's figure was shocked back and hit the wall, and then the black mist rushed towards us, and a sense of depression came out. I reflexively raised my arm to block, and the shadow moon in my hand also waved out, but someone was faster than me, it was Zhuang Yu who was originally sitting on the ground, he stood up, met the evil soul head-on, blocked me behind me, and shouted: "Yao, you attack behind it!" We're going to wipe it out one at a time. ”
The next moment, I only felt that the spatial airflow was violently jumping, and no one could see it in the blurred vision, even Sheng Shiyao's relatively clear figure was gone, just like a black hurricane was lifted, my eyes couldn't be opened, and my body was so swept that I couldn't stand. Holding on to the wall firmly, he barely fell, and his heart was very heavy, knowing that it was Sheng Shiyao and Zhuang Yu who were working together desperately to kill this evil soul.
Suddenly, everything stopped, and two figures flew out and slammed into the wall, and the stench gradually dissipated.
