Chapter 751: Capture the Shadow
I grabbed the spoon that Lao Ruan had used and pressed it against the stone wall beside me, holding half a bottle of blood water in my other hand.
It is estimated that Lin'er didn't know what I wanted to do, but she still picked up the flashlight and shone the light on the stone road that was already illuminated by the ever-bright lamp.
I need a flashlight for the light now, but the light of the lamp is still too dim, and there are large shadows around me that it can't see.
This array is completely supported by the blood pool, and the blood and water in the pool are the carriers of the large array, and all evil qi and ghosts are fused into the blood, as well as all the inexplicable things in the array, are also fused into it.
Now I'm going to make an attempt to try to put Lao Ruan's shadow into this half bottle of blood water, but I'm not sure if this will work, and I'm not sure if I can find Lao Ruan's shadow in this secret room.
Lin'er and I moved forward cautiously, and the friction between the silver spoon and the stone wall generated heat, allowing the breath on the surface of the spoon to slowly evaporate.
Lin'er swept forward, while carefully guarding the surroundings, I didn't dare to be careless, and I had to glance at her from time to time.
"Shadow!"
Once when I looked up at Lin'er, Lin'er suddenly shouted.
I followed her gaze towards the stone wall in the distance, and saw a dark shadow slowly approaching us, the outline of the shadow was very clear, with a short body, a large head and a thick neck, and wide hands and feet.
It's the shadow of Lao Ruan!
Lin'er hit the light on the shadow, but she couldn't dispel it, but after the shadow was illuminated, it sped up and came towards us.
At that time, Lin'er's pocket suddenly shook, and there was her natal Gu in it, I subconsciously moved my gaze and glanced at that pocket, and the afterglow of my gaze crossed the edge of Lin'er's clothes and landed under the lamppost of the ever-bright lamp. In that position, a long, slender shadow was cast.
I was suddenly shocked in my heart, and immediately reached out and quickly pulled Lin'er aside, thanks to Lin'er's natal Gu just now, I just pulled Lin'er away, and I saw a slender sword body almost rubbing her shoulder and slashing down.
The slender black shadow under the ever-bright lamp does not belong to me, nor does it belong to Lin'er, it is a person with a figure like a hemp rod, he is probably a swordsman, the sword is very fast, and the angle is also very tricky, as soon as I pulled Lin'er away, he turned around his waist, turned the sword and stabbed at Lin'er.
This time Lin'er couldn't avoid it, I could only quickly stretch out my left hand, rely on the Netherworld Tongbao attached to the palm of my hand to forcibly block the long sword, and before the opponent had time to backhand, I used my right hand to make a hook punch.
The fist peak touched the man's head, but the touch it came was like a rotten piece of broken wood.
As soon as he was hit, the man vanished without warning, and across from me was a stone wall illuminated by an ever-bright lamp.
Lin'er had also been attacked by the creek before, and at that time I only saw a black shadow, not the face of the attacker, and it was only now that I realized that these attackers were all in pitch black, and there were no normal facial features at all.
They are a bit like little ghost pawns coming out of the ghost gate, with a puddle of black water all over their bodies.
And when these two attackers disappeared, they gave me a very unsettled feeling, and I always felt that they were not just as simple as disappearing temporarily, but completely erased from this world the moment I came into contact with them.
Lao Ruan's shadow seemed to sense the danger, and now he spread his legs and rushed towards us. His shadow seems to have a consciousness of its own, and to be honest, I really don't know how to explain it.
When Lao Ruan's shadow arrived, I immediately unscrewed the water bottle and aimed the mouth of the bottle at it.
On the same stone wall, there is the shadow of Lao Ruan running, and there is also the shadow of me holding up the water bottle, the ever-bright light penetrates the bottle body, and the shadow of the blood bottle on the stone wall is also hard to the red of blood.
Lao Ruan's shadow did not touch me, but I saw on the stone wall, his shadow became like flowing water, pouring into the shadow of the blood bottle, until it penetrated into the mouth of the bottle, and the shadow of the blood bottle also became pitch black, red anymore.
But I looked at the blood vial in my hand, and nothing changed.
As soon as I screwed on the cap, I heard a muffled "boom rumble" from the depths of the stone path, like a thundercloud pressing down on the bottom of the secret room.
Lin'er immediately turned the light over, and saw a dark shadow surging in the distance, like eleven surging clouds, and like a mullet constantly squirming tentacles.
As the thing got closer, the apprehension in my heart grew stronger.
"Let's go." I grabbed the stunned Lin'er, turned around and ran in the direction of the secret door.
As soon as he ran a few steps, he saw large strands of black shadows oozing out of the stone walls on both sides, which slid to the ground like water, and then quickly condensed and formed, turning into figures of different heights and figures, and in the hands of each shadow, there were sharp weapons such as Miao knives or long swords.
If it weren't for the fact that I couldn't sense the yin qi from these shadows, I would almost have decided on the spot that they were ghosts coming out of the shadows.
These guys didn't pay attention to me after they were formed, and all the sharp weapons beckoned to Lin'er and the blood bottle, and I could only turn my wrist and shake the yang line up, constantly blocking the black shadows pressing from both sides.
They don't need to touch me, as long as they touch the breath I left on the yang line and gossip money, they will be wiped out immediately.
I have a vague feeling that these strange shadows seem to have some kind of strange connection with me.
Finally arrived at the secret door, I stuffed the blood vial into Lin'er's arms, opened the secret door, and pushed Lin'er out.
The secret door opened and closed in a very short time, and when I was sure that Lin'er was safe to get out, I pulled out my teeth and turned to confront the black shadow that pressed over.
But what I didn't expect was that as soon as Lin'er went out, the surroundings immediately quieted down, and there was no longer a black shadow oozing from the stone wall.
It seems that they don't intend to embarrass me, nor do they intend to leave this place.
I breathed a sigh of relief, opened the secret door, and dodged out.
When I returned to the blood pool, Lin'er was looking for the pressure plate at the bottom of the pool with her head down, she probably wanted to open the secret door and let me out.
Seeing me appear alive, Lin'er's expression was very complicated, she wanted to cry and laugh, she stood in front of me for a long time, and didn't say a word.
I didn't have the heart to ponder Lin'er's inner thoughts, so I just let out a cloudy breath and said, "Luckily, I thought I would have to wait until the time to get Lao Ruan's shadow out." ”
Unexpectedly, my words made Lin'er complain: "Can you stop thinking about other people's affairs and occasionally think about your own safety?" ”
She was so nervous just now that she couldn't speak very sharply.
I smiled at her: "I have a big life, I can't die." ”
Lin'er frowned and rolled her eyes.
I was afraid that she would continue to count me, so I made a silent gesture to her: "Stop talking, be careful of alarming the ghosts in the pool." ”
Lin'er opened her mouth, but didn't say anything.
I stuffed the covered blood vial into my backpack, observed the situation in the blood pool, and felt that there was not much danger for the time being, so I took Lin'er towards the secret door of the ugly time.
The old Jin family arranged the twelve secret doors in two groups around the two stalactite mountains, each group of six gates, all arranged around the stalactite mountains.
To reach the Chou Gate, you have to go around a stalactite mountain directly opposite, which is directly opposite the mountain.
Now the ghosts and the shadows of the resentful girls in the pool should be lurking in the dark, and the two of us can only carefully keep our voices low, and when our legs move in the pool of blood, we must ensure that every step we take will not cause waves in the pool.
But no matter how careful you are, when you are about to walk near the ugly door, something still happens.
The soles of our feet are all pebble-sized cold candles, stepping on this thing is much more painful than stepping on the toe pressure plate, I'm okay, the cocoons on the soles of our feet are already thick, and the meat is much harder than ordinary people, and the little feeling under our feet is almost negligible.
Seeing that there were still more than ten meters to reach the location of the ugly gate, Lin'er's body suddenly tilted, and then her left knee weakened, and the whole person fell down into the blood water with an inclination. I hurriedly stepped forward to hold her steady, but she was still half a step slower, and a few bamboo tubes on her waist smashed into the pool, causing a lot of blood.
After a few noises of the waves falling into the water, a strong evil qi rose from the bottom of the pool, and this time the evil qi surging up was even more violent than the last time, and a large whirlwind was formed in the air, and even the blood in the pool was stirred, forming a large vortex at the feet of Lin'er and me.
As soon as I saw that the situation was not good, I hurriedly pushed Lin'er and ran in the direction of the ugly gate.
10 meters, 7 meters, 5 meters...... As he got closer and closer to the location of the ugly gate, the evil aura behind him became more and more manic.
For a moment, I sensed that the evil qi behind me suddenly merged into a stream, like a shocking wave surging towards us, when Lin'er and I were only two meters away from the ugly gate.
But this short distance of two meters was really out of reach for me at that time.
The evil qi was surging, and I had no choice but to stop and urge the Netherworld Treasure to summon out the ghost gate.
Yin Qi poured into the leylines and caused them to burst out, this process was a bit complicated to say, but in fact, it happened very quickly, almost in the next instant, the Yin Qi had already transformed, and the huge bronze ghost gate stood above the blood pool again.
At the very moment when I urged the Netherworld Treasure, the evil qi had already pressed down on the ghost gate like a hurricane.
Thinking back to that scene now, I can't help but be terrified, if I hadn't immediately activated the Netherworld Treasure at that time, and ran the last two meters in one breath, I didn't have to wait to open the ghost door, and the evil qi would have crushed my three souls and seven spirits.
