Chapter 992: Ghost Clapping
"What now? Can't go down? Lin Wan'er looked at Zhang Cheng with a worried face.
"It's all here, and it's definitely going to go down, but I'm afraid it's easy to get in and hard to get out......"
Zhang Cheng had experience in the corpse world in the past, so he was not in a hurry to leave, thought about it, took out his mobile phone, and dialed Hou Jingshan's phone.
After the phone was answered, Zhang Cheng asked Hou Jingshan to hurry up and bring his disciples over, first, to guard the surroundings of the bathhouse to avoid anything from happening after he went in, and secondly, to stimulate the soul seal and leave a coordinate, so as not to enter and leave when he got it.
After arranging, Zhang Cheng looked at Chen Xiaoice and Lin Wan'er, and said hesitantly: "I don't know what the situation is below, or I will go alone, you will wait above." ”
Lin Wan'er immediately shook her head and said firmly: "I'm already a real cultivator now, don't you also want me to accumulate a little more experience?" Don't try to get rid of me again this time. ”
The corners of Chen Xiaoice's mouth twitched, and he sighed: "You all went, and I stayed here alone, and I didn't know what to think of me when the monkey came...... Forget it, if you want to go, go together, and multiple people will take care of it. ”
Seeing what the two said, Zhang Cheng didn't insist anymore, took the hands of the two, took a breath, and jumped directly into the black hole under his feet.
Lin Wan'er experienced this kind of thing for the first time, and said that she was not afraid that it was fake, as soon as she entered, she hugged Zhang Cheng's arm tightly, and she didn't dare to relax for a moment.
After about ten seconds of free fall, a little light appeared below the three of them, Zhang Cheng had experience, and immediately pulled them to float in that direction, and after a whirlwind, his feet finally fell on the ground.
Looking up, Zhang Cheng found that it was a dim space, the air was misty, and the sky and surroundings were shrouded in a layer of purple light, like a huge bowl upside down on it.
Chen Xiaoice grinned with a big mouth, pointed to the aperture and said, "This is Vientiane Space?" How can there still be a poison circle? Eating chicken? ”
Zhang Cheng looked around and estimated from the range of the aperture, this space is indeed not large, it should be within five kilometers, that layer of purple light is likely to be a space barrier, out of the range of this aperture, there should be endless void around.
"Look!"
Suddenly, Lin Wan'er seemed to have discovered something, pointed to the ground and shouted.
Zhang Cheng and Chen Xiaoice hurriedly looked down and found that there were many messy footprints on the ground under their feet.
But when they looked closely, they found that these footprints were only toes, not heels, and looked like horseshoe prints, which was very strange.
Chen Xiaoice thought for a while and said: "The people who were ghosted are all top-heavy, walking on tiptoe, these footprints should be those who are missing, they were really caught here!" ”
Zhang Cheng nodded, followed the footprints and looked ahead, and found that there was a large forest in front of him, although there was no daylight in this space, it was still lush and very dense.
In the middle of the woods, there was a winding path directly opposite the position of the three of them, and dense footprints followed the path to the depths of the woods.
The path looked deserted, lined with weeds and shrubs, and on closer inspection, some of the sharp bushes were still covered with rags and bloodstains, presumably left by the missing as they walked by.
Zhang Cheng took out the mourning stick, picked up the shrubs and vines that were blocking the road, and walked all the way inside.
Chen Xiaoice followed behind, his two eyes kept searching in the dark woods, although he didn't see anything, but he inexplicably gave birth to a feeling of being peeped at, which made him very uncomfortable.
Lin Wan'er walked in the middle, also with a nervous face, took out the yin and yang plate from her pocket and took a look, and found that the pointer kept spinning and rattling.
"What a deep resentment!"
Lin Wan'er gasped, hurriedly rushed behind Zhang Cheng, and reminded in a low voice.
Zhang Cheng nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Since this is made by ghosts, of course the resentment is very deep, but I haven't seen any clues yet, everyone be careful!" ”
The further you go, the lower the temperature becomes, and after walking for a few minutes, the temperature around me is like autumn to winter, and the surrounding trees are covered with hoarfrost, and even the light is much darker.
Zhang Cheng suddenly seemed to have discovered something, stopped, and looked left and right with a solemn face.
"What's wrong?"
As soon as they saw him stop, Chen Xiaoice and Lin Wan'er immediately took the magic weapon in their hands, ready to strike at any time.
"You ...... Did you hear anything? Zhang Cheng turned around and asked.
"Voice?" Chen Xiaoice listened to it, and sure enough, he faintly heard a strange sound, very faint, but very rhythmic, as if someone was hiding in the woods on both sides and ...... to them Applaud.
"How can there be applause? Could it be that there is someone in the woods? Lin Wan'er's face turned pale in an instant and retreated to Zhang Cheng's side.
"Don't be nervous, except for the voice, I haven't found anything wrong for the time being......" Zhang Cheng glanced around and said slowly: "But...... The footprints are getting fewer and fewer here, and those who are missing must have gone into the woods. ”
As he spoke, he walked to the side of the road and looked around, and found that the woods were very dense, and the trees were covered with vines, like a large net, which could not be passed through at all.
But it is a fact that the footprints have decreased, so where have these missing people gone?
And after walking in, the applause became more and more obvious, as if coming from the treetops.
Zhang Cheng raised his head and carefully looked at several big trees in front of him, and found that these trees were all of one species, each with a diameter of more than two meters and a height of twenty or thirty meters.
In appearance, these trees are a bit like locust trees in the sun, but the trunk and leaves are black and gray, giving people a lifeless feeling, and when you smell it closely, you can faintly smell a trace of blood......
Zhang Cheng's heart sank, and he suddenly jumped up, stretched out his hand and picked a fruit from a tree, with a hard shell on the outside, the shape and size of which was like a black lychee.
But after breaking it open, a bright red liquid immediately burst out of it, and the flesh inside was also a sticky lump of rotten meat, emitting a foul smell.
Lin Wan'er immediately pinched her nose, frowned and said, "What kind of fruit is this!" How can it be so stinky! ”
"It's ...... Devil's Breath! The corners of Chen Xiaoice's mouth twitched, and a hint of disgust appeared in his eyes, "If I'm not mistaken, these trees should be the yin trees of the ghost world, called ghost clapping ......"
"Ghost clapping?" Zhang Cheng threw away the fruit with a look of disgust, and said, "What a strange name......
Chen Xiaoice nodded, "The reason why it is called ghost clapping is because this kind of tree will make a clapping sound, attracting other creatures to approach, and then absorb it and become its own nutrients, and the part that cannot be absorbed will be passed on to the fruits, and these fruits will become something like carrion......"
