Chapter 141: The Ghost Village Maze

Guan Qingye just woke up and was still a little blind, but he quickly reacted, and looked around, and sure enough, as Tianyou said, although there were shadowy figures everywhere around the hall, he turned a blind eye to the people in the hall, and just wandered around aimlessly.

"When did you find me asleep?" asked Aoba in a whisper, who was busy waking up the mountain.

Dashan, who suddenly woke up, struggled violently, but was held down by Tianyou, and his mouth could only make a nasal whining sound, and then he heard Tianyou's whispered explanation, and quickly quieted down, looking around in panic like a green leaf.

After Tianyou pacified the mountain, he turned back and explained to Guan Qingye: "I don't see when you fell asleep, but it shouldn't be long." ”

"Why?"

"When I woke up, you slept by the fire, and you had a stick in your hand that had been stuck in the fire, and if you had slept for a long time, the stick would have been charred. ”

Guan Qingye nodded in acceptance of this statement, and then the three of them split up to wake up the others. After everyone woke up, they were naturally panicked, but fortunately, everyone was prepared before waking up, and they didn't make much noise from the people who had just woken up.

The 26 people who regrouped gathered together and whispered about the current situation, and found that everyone had the same dream, and the content was the same as that of the green leaves, that is, they found that everyone around them was asleep, only they were awake, and then they saw the ghost village appear, and then they were woken up.

Listening to their explanations, Tianyou was quite puzzled, because it seemed that he was the only one who did not dream. In fact, Tianyou was awakened, he vaguely seemed to feel something touch him, and then he suddenly woke up, and when he opened his eyes, he saw a rising blue flame burning clean in the blink of an eye.

"Strange thing. muttered quietly, but Tianyou did not talk about his different experiences with others, but began to remind everyone to think about countermeasures quickly.

Now everyone's situation is quite stable, although there are many ghosts outside the main hall, no ghost has entered the main hall. Mass graves, which had previously been considered extremely dangerous, were now surprisingly quiet, and no matter what was buried underground, at least there was nothing strange about it.

According to the rules, everyone needs to wait until tomorrow is ugly, wait for the flying sword to appear and leave, and then follow the breath of the flying sword, which is the only thing that can show them where the end is. If these ghosts outside have not stepped into the hall, then everyone will not be in any danger until the flying sword leaves, but what will happen after the flying sword leaves?

"Maybe you can try walking through that graveyard. Someone proposed, and it was agreed by a number of people.

Although the crowd was very reluctant to walk through the graveyard during the day, it didn't seem so difficult to pass through the graveyard compared to the surrounding ghost villages. But Tianyou disagrees. This large cemetery knows that there is something wrong at first glance, and it is not as easy to walk through it as it seems.

It's not that there are people who have the same idea as Tianyou, but they obviously belong to the minority, and some people even suggested that everyone should just wait until dawn in the main hall. Anyway, these ghosts don't dare to approach the main hall, and after dawn, the sun will purify all ghosts, and then you can walk without worry.

This method may sound like it is really feasible, but those who can make it to the last hurdle are all arrogant people who scoff at this method that is obviously inferior.

In fact, if this method is really possible, God Bless doesn't mind actually waiting until sunrise. Anyway, tomorrow and sunset are limited, and there is plenty of time, and jungle movement is his specialty, even if he leaves late, he may not arrive later than others. But Tianyou didn't plan to try this method, because he always felt that this method was not feasible.

There was a lot of debate about how to leave, and in the end, there was really no choice but to decide to go separately. The alliance that had just been established in the afternoon was directly dispersed in less than half a day.

Tianyou had Guan Qingye, Dashan, Panghai, Qian Ming and four other students along the way, but there were only 14 people in the other team, because there were still 3 people who decided to wait until dawn before leaving.

Because the team was now divided into three teams, the harmonious atmosphere of the afternoon also disappeared for a while, and everyone was divided into three circles and sat in a pile, discussing various issues that they needed to pay attention to along the way.

God bless their team mainly to listen to Qian Ming explain some knowledge points about ghosts, and occasionally learn some ways to deal with ghosts. However, Qian Ming himself is a half-ass, so whether his method is useful or not depends on the actual effect.

After listening for a while, Tianyou felt that Qian Ming had nothing new to tell everyone, so he called the huge sea to help him and send him to the roof again, he wanted to observe the situation of this ghost village from above. This hall is a lot taller than the houses in the ghost village, and standing on the roof should be able to overlook the entire ghost village, at least you have to figure out where there are more ghosts and where there are fewer ghosts.

The huge sea responded and quickly stood up to help, this time Tianyou had experience, and the legs were not so strong, just with the power of the huge sea, he fell lightly on the eaves, climbed up the ridge along the wooden frame that was still intact, and then looked around.

The surrounding forest encloses an area roughly oval, somewhat resembling the shape of a school playground. The main hall is not in the center of the area, but on the edge of the area. On the opposite side of this hall is the archway where they came in the afternoon. However, at this time, the archway was not as dark as in the afternoon, but became a very ordinary archway, and looking at its location, it happened to be the entrance of the ghost village.

After carefully observing the location of the houses in the ghost village, Tianyou suddenly found a very serious problem, and instead of continuing to watch, he turned over and jumped down. When the people saw him come down, they quickly gathered around him and asked him what he saw.

"We seem to be in a bit of a big trouble. ”

"What do you see? Is it a terrifying ghost?" asked Dashan with some fear.

Tianyou didn't answer immediately, but turned to ask Qian Ming: "Qian Ming, can we touch those ghost mansions outside?"

"I think I can touch it. The younger brother had encountered a haunted house before, which was said to be a farmer's house, and then somehow it was burned down by a fire, but every midnight the burned farmhouse would reappear, and anyone could touch it, just like the real house. ”

Dashan couldn't help but touch his arm and said, "I'm hairy, why don't we go to the cemetery with them." ”

"Look at you as big as you, why are you so daring? You don't have to worry about other people's money. "Shrub green leaves on the side and deliberately stimulate the mountain.

Unexpectedly, Dashan retorted with confidence: "What's wrong with being afraid of ghosts? If I fight with people on the battlefield, you can see that I can frown, but this ghost ......!"

Tianyou interrupted them and said, "Okay, okay, let's get down to business." I've just seen it above, and it's probably a little worse than we thought. ”

"What's a bad law?" asked Qian Ming.

"As you just said, there is no difference between the ghost house and the real house after it reappears, so we can't walk through those houses directly, right?"

Qian Ming nodded. "As it should be. ”

"Since we can't get through the walls, we have to get around the haunted houses. But I just saw that this ghost village is extremely densely built, and all the roads in the village are almost dead ends after nine twists and eighteen bends. ”

"You mean the village is a labyrinth?"

"Yes, not only is the road in the village a labyrinth, but there is only one way out of this labyrinth. ”

"Why is there only one way out?" asked the mountain, "Aren't we just going to run into the woods and be fine?"

"Yes, the ghost village only reaches the edge of the woodland, not into the woods, but the outermost houses in the whole ghost village are connected, and only the archway we came over in the afternoon is the only exit from this ghost village. In other words, we had to find the right way through the entire ghost village and go all the way to the archway to get out. ”

Because in the afternoon, when the haunting had not started, everyone had done a lot of preparations, and by the way, they had almost touched the surrounding terrain, so everyone knew that the archway was very far away from the main hall. If you have to run from the main hall to the archway to leave the ghost village, then the length of this line will undoubtedly be very scary. On the contrary, the cemetery behind it is less than 200 zhang, and the forest is seen through it, which seems to be much easier than going through the ghost village.

But the more this happens, the more Tianyou feels that the cemetery is a big pit, and whoever enters will die.

"Shall we ......?" suggested Oyama in a whisper again. He actually chose this side because he saw that God blessed them and they all chose the ghost village, after all, he relied on this method of staring at smart people to pass the first level. He didn't really want to go to the ghost village at all, if he could go through the cemetery, it would obviously be much more reassuring for him than the ghost village.

It's a pity, Tianyou shook his head directly and said, "If you want to go into that cemetery, you can go, I won't go anyway." ”

Guan Qingye also quickly determined his position and resolutely did not go to the cemetery, and although the others were a little hesitant, they still decided to follow them. First, Tianyou's performance is amazing, and secondly, with Qian Ming, a half-hung ghost exorcism master, the threat index of the ghost village is obviously not as high as it seems.

"The maze doesn't matter, can't you see the whole village from above?" said Guan Qingye, "While you still have time, go find the right passage and write it down." You're an Orion, so you should have a strong sense of direction, right?"

Tianyou immediately nodded and said, "Huge Hai, help me again." ”

"Okay. ”

Jumping onto the roof again, Tianyou began to use his eyes to try to navigate the labyrinth. Unlike when he was in the labyrinth, he can see the whole maze now, he won't get lost because he can't find the control point, and his gaze is obviously moving much faster than walking on his legs, and it doesn't take his physical strength.

I have to say that the complexity of this ghost village is far beyond imagination, I originally thought that I would be able to find the passage quickly from the top and write it down, but Tianyou was stunned that it took nearly half an hour to find the correct path, and because there were too many turns, he was still a little relieved to remember it with his brain, so he simply threw a piece of charcoal up below, and then pulled a cloth curtain from the beam, pulled it into a strip of cloth, and then used charcoal to write the correct route mark directly on it.

"That's it. After drawing the marker, he threw away the charcoal rod, and God blessed one to roll over and fall to the ground. "Alright, the map is here. ”

"Show me. Guan Qingye reached out and took the strip of cloth, and found that Tianyou's marking method was quite clear, at least he could understand it at a glance, the only thing to pay attention to was that he had to remember the number of turns, because Tianyou used this to mark the location, if he remembered the wrong number of turns, this map would be completely invalid.

Just in case, let everyone memorize this map as much as possible, but the huge sea and the mountain are obviously not the type with good brains, and it is indeed a little difficult to memorize this irregular map in a short period of time, but fortunately, this is just a backup, and they don't necessarily need to show the way.

After the problem with the map is solved, the time has come, and the flying sword will appear in another hour. However, Tianyou doesn't plan to wait here, after all, even those who plan to go to the graveyard have begun to take the initiative to go to the roof to study the terrain.

"Which of you and I are going outside to find out?" Tianyou asked, looking at a few people.

Of course, Dashan was hiding straight back, this guy was super afraid of ghosts, and several other people were afraid and hesitated, and finally Da Dahai stood up and volunteered, but Qian Ming stopped him. "I'll go with you. More useful than others. ”

"Then I'll protect you. "Da Da Hai still plans to follow.

Tianyou refused: "We are going to explore the way, not desperately, there are too many people but it is easy to be exposed." Just wait here. ”

"Then be careful. "Guan Qingye is a little worried and tells God to bless.

After Tianyou answered, he was about to leave the hall, but he was stopped unexpectedly. Qian Ming told him to wait first, and then drew talismans on the cloth strips prepared in advance with cinnabar while chanting a mantra. Originally, if there was yellow paper, these charms could have been made in advance, but the problem is that they used strips of cloth torn off from the curtains hanging on the beams of the house instead of yellow paper. The talisman made by this thing can only be kept for one or two hours, and the longer the time, the less powerful it is, so Qian Ming can only wait until he needs to use it before he makes it, otherwise it will be a waste product if it is done in the afternoon.

He made six talismans in one go, and Qian Ming put two of them on the two peachwood swords, and the remaining two were divided equally.

After doing this, he dipped some pheasant blood in the palm of his hand, and then smeared it on the surface of the mahogany sword, but before he could finish the sword, his hand was pierced by wooden thorns. With such a poor quality of the peachwood sword, it is estimated that even a poor ghost mage like Qian Ming has only seen it in his life.

After asking if it was necessary to wipe it with his hands, Tianyou helped to wipe the other sword with a strip of cloth dipped in pheasant blood. Holding the blood-soaked peachwood sword, Tianyou said to himself with some uncertainty: "This is considered a light?"

In any case, due to the limited conditions, it would be nice to have this kind of shoddy peachwood sword.

The two of them who were ready to stop this time really walked out of the main hall, and everyone else stood at the door and watched, even the group of people who were going to walk to the cemetery came to watch.

When the ghost village outside the temple first appeared, there were many ghosts swaying, but I don't know when it started, and all of these ghosts disappeared. The ghost village has really become a ghost village, except for the ghost houses standing there, not even a ghost shadow can be seen.

Tianyou walked in front with a sword, Qian Ming followed him step by step, stepping on his heel several times, reminding him that it was useless, this guy would still stick it unconsciously. It seems that Qian Ming is not afraid of ghosts, in the past, he used to exorcise ghosts for a living, and at that time they were all fully equipped, as long as he dealt with one ghost at a time, now he is holding such a peachwood sword that he doesn't know if it works, and he is facing thousands of ghosts in a village at a time, and he has no bottom in his heart.

The two of them were like devils entering the village, tiptoeing and hooking their waists, looking as obscene as they were, but their speed was not slow, and they soon touched the nearest ghost house.

Tianyou's first reaction was to knock the wall of the haunted house with the hilt of the peachwood sword, and sure enough, there was a very solid feeling coming from the hilt. He then reached out and touched it, and found that it was no different from a real brick house, except that the temperature was very low and he felt like he had touched a piece of iron.

"Where are you going?" Qian Ming asked Tianyou in a very low voice.

Tianyou pointed to the front of the haunted mansion. There is an alley in front of the haunted house, which is the correct entrance, and if you enter through other entrances, you will end up in a dead end, and you will have to walk a long way to realize that you are taking the wrong road.

The right alley is only about a foot wide, just enough for a horse-drawn carriage to pass. Tianyou walked to the corner of the haunted house and leaned against the wall, and then first glanced at it like lightning, and only dared to come out after finding that the street was empty.

Qian Ming always followed Tianyou without leaving an inch, as if this would make him feel safer.

The alley is also not long, only two houses long, and further on there is a T-shaped fork, which has to be chosen in one direction.

Tianyou walked forward with a cat in front, his eyes constantly scanning the portal on the left side of the street. The gate of the haunted house on the right is closed, and it looks like this is the back door, but the gate on the left is open, and from the current perspective, you can see that there is a small courtyard inside the door, which is basically empty, and there are not many things.

Although the gate on the right side was closed, Tianyou and Ben didn't dare to walk against the street on the right, for fear that a ghost claw would suddenly appear from inside the gate and drag him in. For now, however, his attention was mainly focused on the door on the left, as for the time being he could only see half of the courtyard.

As they gradually moved forward, the range of sight that could be seen also shifted, but at this moment, Tianyou suddenly stopped his steps. Qian Ming, who was following closely, didn't expect Tianyou to stop suddenly, crashed into him, and was about to ask what was going on, but found that Tianyou was looking at the door motionless.

Qian Ming seemed to realize something, and his eyes turned around, only to see an arm and half a foot. At that moment, Qian Ming became nervous, but after all, he had caught a ghost, not that he was afraid, but he was just very nervous. He whispered to Tianyou, "Move over a little bit, let me see inside." ”

At the current angle, Qian Ming could only see one hand and half of the soles of his feet, and after Tianyou heard his words, he began to move forward again, Qian Ming followed and took a step, and immediately saw the whole picture inside the door.

The owner of the arm was an old lady, dressed in coarse cloth, and there was a child standing on her right hand, and the two, no, it should be said that both ghosts had their heads bowed, and their faces were obscured by a purple-black shadow, and they could not see their faces clearly, but they could see the pale skin and cold expressions. The two ghosts did not move, remaining absolutely still, like two wooden stakes, without a trace of popularity. It is impossible for a living person to remain so stable under any circumstances, even if the national flag guards in the previous life still shake slightly when they are close to observe when they stand upright. But this old and young man is absolutely still, without the slightest shaking.

Tianyou felt that his hairs stood up in an instant, and he was bold enough to come and investigate before, but he was also a little hairy when he really saw a ghost. Although he had challenged all kinds of dangerous activities in his previous life, he really hadn't done such a thing as hell.

"Hey, what now?" Tianyou asked Qian Ming in a low voice.

"You ask me?" Qian Ming looked very surprised.

"Nonsense, I don't know how to exorcise ghosts. ”

"But ......" Qian Ming was just about to defend himself, when he saw that the old man and the young suddenly moved, not walking, nor floating, but a way of moving like a rapid continuous teleportation, and it only took less than a second to flash from the middle of the courtyard to the steps of the door. Although this span is not large, and Tianyou can also do this speed, the way this old and young move is really terrifying. Tianyou stepped back almost instinctively, but forgot that behind him was the back door of the haunted house on the right.

There was a creak, and there was a sudden sound of the doorway behind him, and Tianyou turned back suddenly, just in time to see the last moment when the door was completely open, and there was a hanged ghost hanging inside the door. His feet were half a foot off the ground, his head was tilted to one side, his tongue hung all the way to his chin, and a rope was tied around his neck until he couldn't see it.

Qian Ming, this kid, didn't know where he got the courage, he waved the peachwood sword and was about to rush forward, but as soon as the spell mantra shouted a word, he was directly picked up by Tianyou and ran, and he rushed out three feet away in the blink of an eye, which was not much worse than the speed of the old and the young.

Although he escaped, Tianyou was not dominated by fear, and after running out of the three zhang away, he immediately made an emergency stop, and then turned to look behind him, and found that the ghosts did not catch up before letting Qian Ming go.

"What are you running?" Qian Ming asked Tianyou.

Tianyou said confidently: "I can't find a suitable venue for the first fight? Besides, we are here to explore the way, just to test." ”

"Test what?" asked Qian Ming puzzled.

"I heard that ghosts have a limited range of activities, didn't you notice that the three ghosts just now didn't go out?"

Qian Ming was stunned when he heard this, and then said: "In my father's notes, it is mentioned that some unjust souls cannot leave a certain range of the land of death, but not all ghosts are like this. ”

"If you want to know, just give it a try. Tianyou said and began to walk back again, and Qian Ming thought about it and quickly followed.

Both of them were not slow this time and quickly returned to their previous positions. The grandfather and grandson were still standing in the doorway, their eyes staring straight at them, the shadows on their faces much more transparent under the unknown blue light of the street, but they were even more terrifying. The door of the hanged ghost's house on the right had been closed again, and Tianyou didn't plan to bother the guy to hang himself for the time being, but walked directly towards the pair of grandchildren.

Of course, the persimmon has to be picked up softly, and this old and young man looks weaker than the hanged ghost. Of course, Tianyou is not judged by age, but by the horror of death. The old ghost is just old when he dies, which does not mean that the strength of the person is weak, and the same is true for the little ghost. These two don't look so hideous, which means that the resentment is not strong enough, and they should not be too strong.

Of course, these are all summarized by Tianyou according to the content in the movie, whether it is really useful or not, then only the ghost knows.

The two of them had the courage to hold the peachwood sword and gradually approached the place where the two ghosts were less than three feet away, and now Tianyou only needed to stretch out his hand, and the peachwood sword in his hand could stab the two ghosts, but the two ghosts didn't have any other movements except that their eyes always followed them.

Qian Ming said with some excitement: "They really can't seem to get out." ”

"It's just right that you can't get out, trying our peachwood sword tube doesn't work. ”

Qian Ming found that the other party couldn't get out, and he came back immediately. In addition, he usually caught a lot of ghosts, so it was almost a reflex to stab the little ghost with a sword.

The two ghosts, who had been staring at them all the time, finally reacted the moment the peachwood sword stabbed out. The imp would actually raise his hand to block, but the peachwood sword instantly lit up with a circle of red light when it touched his palm. The shoddy peachwood sword turned into an aurora sword in seconds, and this gap almost blinded Tianyou's eyes.

Although he blocked the peachwood sword with his hand, the little imp let out a miserable scream as if he had touched a soldering iron, and flew back.

This ghost cry is really different from people, the sound is not loud, but it is very penetrating, and it also has a trill.

Qian Ming, who succeeded in a sword, also got up, brandished a peachwood sword and stabbed the old lady again. The old ghost flew straight backwards, and when he landed, he was already in the courtyard. Qian Ming was bold, brandishing a shiny red peachwood sword and rushed in, Tianyou didn't have time to stop him, standing at the door hesitating whether to follow up or not.

At this time of hesitation, the situation in the courtyard changed dramatically.

After Qian Ming rushed in, he rushed straight at the little ghost, as if he was going to kill one first, but when he swung his sword and slashed at the little ghost, the old ghost next to him suddenly stretched out his hand, and his two arms actually stretched out a few zhang long and plunged into Qian Ming's neck, and the ten fingernails were like steel nails.

"Be careful. Tianyou didn't have time to rescue, so he directly threw the peachwood sword as a dart and smashed it into the old ghost's hand. The strange thing is that this time the peachwood sword did not shine, but fell directly to the ground, but the old ghost was also startled, and hurriedly closed his claws to dodge, but was smashed only to find that it was okay with Ben.

With this delay, Qian Ming also gained time to react, and did not dare to attack again, so he quickly turned around and ran out.

The courtyard was not big, so Qian Ming jumped out of the door and stood beside Tianyou while panting and thanking him. But at this moment, the old ghost suddenly appeared by the door again with the previous flickering Dafa, but unlike the last time, she did not stop at the door, but went straight to Qian Ming. Tianyou only saw a string of ghosts flashing around him, which startled him, and when he reacted and wanted to rescue, he grabbed Qian Ming and rushed out three or four feet away.

Tianyou turned around and wanted to chase after him, but there was another ghost scream behind him, and the little ghost actually pounced on him directly.

Tianyou's peachwood sword was thrown out just now, and there was no weapon in his hand, but there was a talisman on his body, but he didn't have time to take it out in a hurry, and at this moment, the little ghost suddenly rose up with a circle of blue flames all over his body at the moment he hit Tianyou, and let out a terrible scream, and in an instant, it turned into a rising flame and disappeared without a trace.

At that moment, Tianyou suddenly reacted, wasn't this the fire he saw when he woke up in the main hall? Could it be that a ghost attacked him at that time, and he was burned by this unknown flame?

Thinking of what the Zixiao Palace disciple said before leaving, Tianyou suddenly realized that the other party was not scaring people. It's really not safe inside the hall, and it's a mistake for everyone to stay there. But by mistake, because Tianyou had this unknown flame on his body, and the fierce ghost who died before he appeared happened to regard Tianyou as the first target, and as a result, he was burned directly to death inexplicably.

The more I thought about it, the more it made sense, Tianyou was about to ask Qian Ming about the flames, and suddenly remembered that Qian Ming was still being chased by ghosts. glanced at Qian Ming, fortunately, he was not powerless, and he was fighting with the old ghost. The old ghost's whereabouts are erratic, and his arms can be productive or short, but the peach wood sword in Qian Ming's hand has too much influence on her, almost completely suppressing her existence, so it seems that there is no winner for a while.

Sure that Qian Ming was okay for the time being, Tianyou immediately rushed into the courtyard, picked up his peachwood sword and rushed out again.

With Tianyou's help, the two worked together to quickly knock the old ghost to the ground, and Qian Ming's last sword solved the old ghost and made it spontaneously combust.

Tianyou looked carefully, the ghost killed by the peach wood sword was like charcoal powder burned out in the wind, quickly lit up and then quickly extinguished, no open flame can be seen, but a large number of sparks can be seen, and the burning speed is not too fast, it takes two or three seconds to completely burn out. The blue flame that came out of his body just now was obviously much more powerful than this one, and it burned out almost in the blink of an eye. The two are not at all an order of magnitude.

was about to ask Qian Ming what was going on with the flames on his body, but Tianyou was suddenly stunned. Because he suddenly thought of the answer.

"Could it be the Moon Shadow?"

Unlike the pet-like demon pet relationship of Mocking Wind, Moon Shadow and Tianyou have achieved a parasitic relationship, which means that they should now be considered a whole. And Moon Shadow's body is a phoenix, isn't playing with fire her forte?(To be continued.) )
