Chapter Thirty-Nine: A Strange Demonic Light
After dinner, I packed all my gear, locked the door and left the house, and hailed a taxi straight to Jinghu.
Looking at the dense clouds in the sky outside the window, I suddenly had a bad premonition, took out my mobile phone and opened the old yellow calendar to take a look: it is the sun and the moon breaking, don't use it for major events.
Thinking about what might happen tonight, for some reason, I felt a little cold behind it.
Because it was still early, I got off the bus at the Guandu District People's Hospital, intending to chat with the blind man for a while to kill time.
When he came to the blind man and Sun Yuchen's ward, he faintly heard a faint moaning sound coming from the ward. I saw that there was a gap in the door of the ward, and I did not rush in, but stood outside the door and looked inside, I wiped it, and the fragrant scene in the ward made me red-faced for a while.
"Doing such a thing in a hospital room!" For a moment, I was speechless in shock.
After the two of them were finished, I gently pushed open the door of the ward and walked in, and greeted casually: "Hi, blind man, Yuchen, I'm coming to see you!" Are you feeling better? ”
When Sun Yuchen saw me suddenly break in, he hurriedly straightened out his messy clothes with his hands, and hid behind the blind man with a blushing face, but the blind man sat on Sun Yuchen's bed with his upper body naked, and said to me with a leisurely face: "The little funeral is coming, come and sit for a while!" ”
I nodded, sat on the blind man's hospital bed, and put the yellow cloth bag full of magic weapons and the Tiangang sword beside me. ”
The blind man said, "Do a big deal", you must not think of doing bad things, in fact, this sentence means "do big things tonight".
I nodded noncommittally, took out a tissue from my jacket pocket, and gently wiped the Tiangang Sword.
"Xiao Fu, today is the sun and the moon breaking, I think you still don't want to go, let's act together in a few days, how about it?" The blind man reached out and touched Sun Yuchen's hair, and said to me in a somewhat serious tone.
"I made an appointment with Master to meet tonight, no matter how dangerous it is, I will go!"
After hearing this, the blind man smiled and said: "Huang Daxian, this old man is really good at picking time, when the moon breaks and the sun breaks to Jinghu, he won't be deliberately cheating you, right?" ”
"Probably not, to be honest, I don't know very well why Master has to go to Mirror Lake tonight? What is the purpose of choosing to go at night? Master, what the hell does he want to do? He didn't tell me that. ”
"I heard that Wong Tai Sin is secretive, what he doesn't want to tell you, even if you pry his mouth open, it's useless."
The blind man took out a cigarette from the coat placed on the bed, was snatched by Sun Yuchen, and said, "Brother Jia, this is a ward, don't you know that smoking is not allowed in the ward?" ”
"Of course I do, isn't this a smoker? Don't be angry! ”
Seeing the blind man and Sun Yuchen lying in the same bed flirting, I began to regret coming to the hospital to chat with him.
Time passed in a minute and a second, I looked at my phone, my heart was almost time to go, put the yellow cloth bag on my shoulder, Tiangang sword behind me, the blind man saw that I was leaving, and hurriedly said to me: "You must come back alive, let's go eat Chongqing hot pot together at noon tomorrow!" ”
I walked to the door and complained helplessly: "Blind man, I'm grass your uncle, don't set up a flag!" ”
"Let's go!" The blind man lay on the bed and waved lazily at me.
Closing the door of the ward, I smiled bitterly: "Yes, tonight is estimated to be more auspicious!" ”
I'm the one who hates flags, and whenever people say to me that you must survive or something, I feel very uncomfortable.
Some people may say that my brain circuit is strange, but as long as you think about it, in the vast majority of film and television works, whenever someone says something like "you want to come back alive" to the protagonist, the protagonist finally receives a boxed lunch without exception. I think this is also a kind of superstition.
After leaving the hospital and turning into the path along the lake, I saw Huang Jianjun standing on the observation deck after walking for a long time. There is only one low street lamp on the road outside the observation deck, perhaps because the voltage is too low, the light emitted by the street lamp is very bleak, and it looks extra strange on the shore of this lonely and gloomy mirror lake.
"So early?" Huang Jianjun turned to me and said.
I nodded at him and asked with some curiosity, "Master came empty-handed?" ”
"I brought a Nine Yin Mahogany Sword and a few pieces of rune paper, and a few bags of glutinous rice in my jacket pocket." Huang Jianjun patted the yellow cloth bag on his shoulder and said to me.
I walked up to the observation deck, turned on the wolf eye flashlight that I took out in advance, a bright pillar of light shot straight out and shone on the surface of the lake, I was surprised to find a small speedboat floating on the water surface on the right side of the observation deck, I stretched out my finger and pointed to the speedboat, and asked Huang Jianjun: "This speedboat, did you get it?" ”
Huang Jianjun nodded, and said calmly, "Since we want to go to the island in the middle of the lake, we must have a boat with strong enough horsepower." ”
I was puzzled and said: "Ordinary boats are fine, although paddling will be a little tiring, but the noise of the speedboat is too loud, don't you think it disturbs the people?" ”
Huang Jianjun touched his chin and said with a smile: "Disturbing the people? You don't look at the white fog rising around the Mirror Lake, even if we make an explosion here, the sound will be absorbed by the fog, and people outside won't be able to hear it at all. ”
"What does Master mean is that these yin fogs are like a special barrier separating the Mirror Lake from the outside world?"
Huang Jianjun replied noncommittally: "There's nothing wrong with your understanding. It's time, let's go! ”
I saw Huang Jianjun jumping onto the speedboat with an arrow step, and the speedboat floating on the water only shook slightly a few times and quickly returned to normal.
When I got into the speedboat, Huang Jianjun made a gesture of invitation, and the meaning was obvious: let me drive!
In the past, during the summer vacation, I often accompanied Jiawen to Lianchi Park to play, and I still remember that there is an electrically driven boat in Lianchi Park, which is much faster than a paddle boat, but far less than a speedboat. It's just that the way both boats are driven is similar, and I think since I can drive that kind of electric boat, I shouldn't have any problem driving a speedboat.
Huang Jianjun handed me a bunch of keys, pointed to a black key and said to me, "You can open it, right?" ”
I nodded and said confidently, "That's a must!" ”
Insert the key into the keyhole and twist it clockwise for half a turn, and the speedboat makes a "buzzing" sound. It seemed that I was lucky tonight, and I started it in one go, and I grabbed the steering wheel with both hands and drove the speedboat out like a smoke.
The speedboat cleaves the waves on the lake and sails quickly towards the island in the middle of the lake. At night, the mirror lake was as lonely as death, a thick layer of hoarfrost condensed in the air, and occasionally a biting wind blew on the dead lake, which made my hair messy.
Huang Jianjun took my wolf-eye flashlight and stood behind me to help me light the situation ahead, I noticed that the color of the lake was a little strange, and muttered, "Why is this lake water black?" ”
On the wide lake, the speedboat rode the wind and waves in the dead night, and the cold air was filled with a strong smell of death, which made me a little breathless.
Just when the speedboat was less than fifty meters away from the island in the middle of the lake, a strange faint green demon light suddenly emanated from the surface of the lake, which was less than ten meters to our right.
This demonic light flickered on and off, looking very strange on the surface of this pitch-black lake, Huang Jianjun pulled out the Nine Yin Mahogany Sword behind him like a great enemy, pointed to the lake that emitted green light, and said to me: "The coffin is under the lake!" ”
As soon as I finished speaking, I clearly heard as if something was popping out of the water, and I was looking left and right, only to feel a fishy wind coming from the front.
Because the visibility was too poor, I couldn't see what it was, but I knew from my first feeling that it was not a good thing, and almost in the blink of an eye, I threw out the Tiangang Sword with my free right hand and swept away the leaves with the wind sweeping the leaves, and a blue sword slashed through the air, only to hear a crisp sound of "click", and countless pieces of minced meat mixed with fishy black blood splashed on me.
"it!"
I was so smoky with the black blood on my body that I almost wanted to vomit, but I didn't vomit it out. Huang Jianjun witnessed my attack just now, and couldn't help but praise repeatedly: "From drawing the sword to swinging and slashing to the final sword retraction, the whole process is done in one go without the slightest drag, whether it is the reaction speed or the speed of the sword, it is far beyond the level of my peak, you kid is really not simple!" ”
When I heard Huang Jianjun's praise, I said modestly: "It's still far from Master." ”
As he was talking, there was a sudden sound of "plopping and plopping" on the surface of the lake, Huang Jianjun's face sank, and he shouted at me nervously: "Hurry up, the water ghosts are catching up!" ”
