Chapter Thirty-Eight: Two Dark Shadows
Just as I was amazed by the layout of the pool and ice sculptures in front of me, suddenly out of the corner of my eye, I saw two black shadows standing in the white mist not far ahead!
Suddenly I felt my heart tremble, and immediately took out a pistol from my waist, and I immediately squatted down and went to the cat in the pool, and the two black shadows were wrapped in mist and loomed, motionless and could not tell whether they were people or ornaments from a distance.
After a long time, the two black pestles had never moved there, and I swallowed my saliva and prepared to go and find out.
With a gun in one hand and a sword in the other, I began to slowly approach the two black shadows through the white mist. When I got closer, the black shadow in the white fog was really two people sitting cross-legged, and I saw them sitting opposite each other, and the fog was almost above their heads, and they couldn't see their faces clearly for a while.
When I came to the two of them, I was taken aback, one of them was Lao Zhao, who had been missing for a long time!
I saw that his eyes were closed, his face was pale, and there was a pool of blood under him! Only then did I find that he had also suffered an injury on his leg, and judging from the situation in front of me, I was not sure if he was still breathing, so I had to reach out and probe in front of his nostrils, and I felt that there was still a faint breath, and I was immediately relieved.
I couldn't help but look at the person sitting opposite Lao Zhao again, only to see that he was wearing a black coat and a face mask, and the mask only left two holes in his eyes, so he couldn't see his face at all. At this moment, he also closed his eyes tightly and maintained the same posture as Lao Zhao.
I was about to reach out to find out if he still had breath, but suddenly found that he was holding a pistol in his hand, I couldn't help but feel nervous, Wu Laohan and Lao Zhao both had gunshot wounds on their legs, could it be that this man in black was the one who injured them?
Just as he was thinking about it, suddenly, a familiar voice said behind him, "You...... It's finally here! ”
I couldn't help but be taken aback when I heard this, and immediately turned around, only to see that Lao Zhao had opened his eyes, and there was suddenly a little more blood on his pale face.
"How are you? Is it this man in black who hurt you? Do you want me to kill him first? ”
"Nope! No! He ...... us There is no threat anymore! Lao Zhao said and grabbed me, I felt his hands trembling, I don't know if it was because of the injury or he was nervous about something.
At this time, the man in black on the other side also opened his eyes, he stared directly at me but did not speak, although through the mask, I could still feel a chill in his eyes.
I reacted very quickly, and immediately snatched the gun from his hand, even if I didn't do anything to her, but I couldn't go unguarded.
The man in black didn't react, he just kept staring at me, I didn't see any injuries on him, and his presence made me very uneasy. couldn't help but ask Lao Zhao again: "Who is he?" Did he hurt you? ”
Lao Zhao sighed and said in a deep voice: "It's not important anymore, our grievances are over, and we are all waiting for your arrival at this moment!" ”
Lao Zhao's words sound meaningful, and I can't help but remind me of what Wu Laohan said before, he said that the answers I want are waiting for me in the thousand-year-old ice cave, could it be that this man in black is Lao Zhao's shadow? So he's the wolf? How is this possible! The shadow is the projection of the body in two-dimensional space, and it is impossible to appear in three-dimensional space with a three-dimensional effect!
Lao Zhao saw that I was silent, and said: "In order not to worry you, I'll tell you directly, the person sitting in front of me is the leader of that secret force!" ”
"The leader of the forces in the shadows?" I couldn't help but chuckle in my heart: "Then isn't he Dong Xinyi's master!" The purpose of my visit this time is to stop him from destroying this thousand-year-old ice cave! ”
"That's right! All he has been doing is to awaken the curse of the ghost mirror, so that more people's shadows begin to have thinking consciousness, in order to make the shadows ...... Replace the body! ”
"It's the big secret!" I was shocked: "I have been told by more than one person that this is a secret that cannot be told, how can you ......"
Lao Zhao nodded helplessly after hearing this: "I can't care so much about it now, everything should have to be revealed one day, about the secret of the ghost mirror, I think Dongzi should have told you everything, now it's up to me to say, you just listen!" ”
Lao Zhao was silent for a moment and then said: "Only now did I know that everything that the leader of the dark forces in front of me did was actually taking revenge on the wolf master, in the final analysis, everything was caused by the wolf master, and this battle should end here!" ”
I was carefully speculating about the reason for Lao Zhao's words, when suddenly, a familiar voice came from a distance.
"Brother Yang?"
When I looked back, it was Xinyi! He had just come down the spiral stone steps when she chased him here.
"Xinyi, why are you here? Didn't I keep you out of the stone gate? ”
"You're embarrassed to say it! It took me a lot of effort to open the stone gate, and I chased all the way and met Wu Laohan, and then chased here! ”
Xinyi said that she had come to me, and when she saw the two people sitting on the ground, she immediately recognized that the man in black was her master, and immediately leaned over her master and asked excitedly, "Master, it's really you!" How are you and have you ever been injured? ”
Xinyi's master still didn't speak, but just shook his head at Xinyi, and then glanced at her, signaling Xinyi not to make a sound, and listen to Lao Zhao finish speaking.
At this time, Lao Zhao continued: "Okay, since everyone has arrived, let me tell you all the ins and outs of all this!" ”
