Chapter Twenty-Eight: Into Hell
Just when I wanted to go home as soon as possible, I found that the corridor that was only 100 meters long had become extremely long. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info The exit was right in front of us, but we couldn't reach it as if we were standing still. Li Zhisheng seemed to notice something unusual, and said to me suspiciously: "It only took us less than five minutes when we came in, and now it is estimated that we have been walking for about ten minutes, right?" ā
I didn't pay attention to the time when I left the morgue, so I wasn't sure how long I had been walking. But one thing is for sure, there must be more time to go now than it was when we came in.
Hu Fang was also aware of it, and when he heard our doubts, he also acclaimed: "Could it be... Did we encounter a ghost hitting the wall? "Ghost hitting the wall?!" Li Zhisheng also repeated what Hu Fang said, I guess he should know something, and asked, "Do you know what's going on?" ā
After listening to me, Li Zhisheng stretched out his hand to stop us, preventing us from moving on, and then he fell into deep thought. "Since it's a ghost hitting the wall, we should leave quickly, how can we ......" Hearing her endlessly, for fear of interrupting Li Zhisheng's train of thought, she made a silent gesture to Hu Fang and motioned for her to wait patiently. Hu Fang also closed his mouth in amusement.
Through the dim light of the corridor, I found that Li Zhisheng's face gradually became gloomy, his brows were tightly locked, and his eyes were staring directly at the exit in front of him. At this time, I noticed that something was wrong, the emergency passage light that was originally lit at the end of the corridor was gradually turning from green to red.
At this time, Li Zhisheng's voice also came from the side, and he said in a gloomy voice: "In this case, I have only seen sporadic records when I studied some strange sects in the past. It's not a ghost hitting a wall at all, it's something else that looks like a ghost hitting a wall! At this he raised his tone slightly. At the same time, I also felt the seriousness of the situation, he wiped the sweat from his forehead and continued: "The ghost gate is a little ghost who distorts some space in the human world to form a 'hui' shape, so that people can be trapped in it, so as to gradually weaken the yang energy of the trapped person. Then wait for an opportunity to take possession of its body and devour its soul. What we encounter now is not caused by ghosts hitting the wall, but is exactly what the old man often said! Door! Close! ā
Hearing him finish these three words word by word, I also became nervous, opened my mouth and said, "What is the ghost gate?" Why is it here? Could it be that this is a ghost mound? Because of my anxiety, I vomited all the doubts in my heart at once. Hu Fang saw that what we said was so serious, and the nerves that had just recovered slightly tightened again. She looked at me nervously and said, "So what now?" ā
I shook my head at her, signaling that I didn't know. But Li Zhisheng ignored Hu Fang and continued: "This should not be a ghost mound, the conditions for setting up a ghost mound are too harsh, at least not here for the time being." As for this ghost gate, it is actually the same as a ghost hitting the wall, trapping people in it. But unlike the little ghost building a wall, this ghost gate needs to be opened by evil spirits in a place where the anger is extremely heavy. Once trapped in it, the further you go, the more you will gradually separate your soul from your body, and eventually go to the underworld and sleep in hell. If you don't believe it, look back. ā
Hearing him say this, Hu Fang and I turned around in unison. It didn't matter if I saw it, it suddenly shocked me into a cold sweat. Not far behind us, two people stood. One is Hu Fang, and the other is Li Zhisheng, but what surprised me was that there was no me.
Li Zhisheng also turned around and said: "Without you, it may be because of the void in your body, coupled with the effect of the Nine Star Chart, that your soul has not been stripped away." This should be the reason why you entered the Hades Gate before, but you can still come back intact. And standing in front of us is Hu Fang's body and me. ā
The two bodies stood in place with wooden expressions, like wax figures under the flickering lights. Hu Fang's eyes were already wide in surprise, and she waved her hands at a loss, but no matter what she did, the body on the other side just stood in place, staring at us deadly.
I stopped Hu Fang and said, "It's useless, don't waste your efforts." If, as you say, this is a ghost, then what I just saw in the morgue can be determined to be a ghost. But now that you know where we are, is there anything you can do to get us out? ā
Li Zhisheng shook his head helplessly, revealing a look of despair and said, "As far as I know, this place only has an entrance, but no exit. Because the purpose of this place is to completely strip the living and souls, and introduce them into the underworld, and refine them with some small ghosts, so as to produce more powerful ghosts. To put it bluntly, the only thing we can do now is to go to hell......"
Saying that, Li Zhisheng slowly lowered his head, but at this moment, I noticed that something was wrong: "If the person who designed to harm us has such a powerful power and can control the ghost to open this ghost door." Why don't you just control the ghosts and kill us, and instead use such a complicated method to lead us to hell? Is it because of the vanity in me? Does he want to use the void in me to combine with the imp to create a more powerful ghost? But the void and soul in my body are not separated from my body......"
Just when I was puzzled, Hu Fang pulled my sleeve and pulled me back from my thoughts, I saw tears in her eyes, but she still held back the fear in her heart, kept her composure and said to me: "Then let's go over and get the body back, wouldn't it?" ā
After hearing this, Li Zhisheng smiled helplessly and said, "Even if you are next to your body, you can't return to your body again." It has been recorded that once the soul of a person has been stripped of its entirety, it is almost impossible for it to return to its own body, so ......" he said with a long sigh.
"In that case, let's go to the underworld and see if we can find a turnaround. If I can't save you, I'll be dead with me! With that, I tightened my grip on the bloodstained box in my hand and prepared to walk towards the exit. But just as everyone took the first step, the already tattered lighting equipment overhead exploded with a "bang". Then the surroundings fell into inky darkness.
In the darkness, I felt Hu Fang grasp my arm harder, perhaps because I was too frightened to scream. So I can only try to grasp some things around me that I can grasp.
And Li Zhisheng may have known that once he enters this place, there is only a dead end. In a desperate situation, he gave up the instinct to survive, so he didn't make the slightest sound.
In this boundless darkness, I couldn't even see a single inch when I put my hand in front of me. If it weren't for Hu Fang's overexertion, which hurt me, I might not even be able to feel my presence. In such a situation, I can no longer feel fear in my heart, because I have even begun to question whether "I" really exist in this world.
But the darkness that made people lose even their sense of self did not last long. Actually, I don't know how long it has been, but because I still have a heartbeat, counting my heartbeat, so I don't feel like it was long.
Suddenly, the darkness in front of him seemed to be torn apart, and a large, irregular crack appeared. The crack gradually spread to both sides, dispelling all darkness in an instant. But at this time, I was shocked to find that where we were still a hospital, Hu Fang and Li Zhisheng were also dumbfounded.
The crimson sky, as if stained with blood, was filled with multiple huge swirling clouds, and countless human-like objects circled around the clouds. Most of these objects are translucent, red and white, and a few are black. They tightly surround the cloud, slowly following the rotation of the cloud into the center of the vortex. Because the number is too large and too dense, the scalp of the person who looks at it is numb.
But when I turned around to look at Hu Fang and Li Zhisheng, they were already staring at those swirling clouds, and they didn't react no matter how they screamed. I cried out, "Could it be that they will also enter the cloud like the hovering object?" ā
Just when I had nothing to do, the gray earth suddenly trembled violently, and dark red peaks rose from the originally endless gray plain. It's more like a dark red volcano than a mountain, because the summit is full of sunken craters.
In a matter of moments, the plain was transformed into a stone forest of volcanoes of various sizes. But the tremors of the earth have not stopped, and some volcanoes that have grown up in full force are constantly spewing red liquid outward.
Just as the liquid was about to flow around us, I saw that it wasn't just red liquid. It was mixed with all kinds of internal organs, as well as skinned corpses, and some even had only a single skeleton left.
I wanted to pull Hu Fang and Li Zhisheng to run, but the moment I ran into them, I felt a hint of coolness. At the same time, my hand passed through their bodies in an instant.
I don't know when it began, their appearance has also begun to change, and the skin on their faces is peeling off little by little, revealing the blood-red muscles inside. Even though I knew they were just souls, I couldn't help but feel a pang in my heart. thought to himself: "Their transformation is very likely to be what Li Zhisheng said before, the process of refining. If I let them do this, then I will probably never be able to pull them back into the world, and then I will have to die with me."
Although I knew in my heart that I couldn't let them go on like this, I couldn't even touch them, and I couldn't do anything about it. Just as I was stamping my feet in a hurry, two hateful-looking imps sprang out of nowhere and swooped down towards Hu Fang and Li Zhisheng. They screamed, making extremely piercing sounds, like the mournful screams of night owls.
