Chapter 293: Killing by Mistake

Liang Houzai lost his center of gravity on the spot because of too much force, and almost fell, so I quickly reached out and pulled him to help him maintain his balance.

The old wooden door was still swaying, making a small "squeak" sound, and the curtains in the bedroom were closed, and only a few dim moonlight shone in through the cracks in the curtains, faintly illuminating the furnishings in the bedroom.

A table, two beds, two chairs, and a TV stand, and in addition to that, there were some miscellaneous things piled up in the corner of the bedroom, and the light was so dim that I couldn't see what the stacked things were.

There was no one in the dormitory, and when I walked to the table, I vaguely saw a cup on the table, and I stretched out a finger to probe the cup, and the water in it was still exuding a temperature close to body temperature.

Liu Shangang rushed to the balcony and opened the curtains.

Now the bedroom was much brighter, and I could see clearly that the things piled up in the corner were clothes and shoes, and next to this pile, there was a small electric pot for cooking and a few handfuls of vegetables that were a little hairy.

From the outside, this is an ordinary dormitory, filled with the smell of oil smoke left over from daily cooking, and there are only a few aluminum rice bowls on the table, except for the water glass I have at hand.

Liang Houzai walked to a bed, stretched out his hand and patted the bed, and immediately a puff of dust rose from the bed, he raised his head and said to me: "No one has slept for a long time, so they only eat here, but never rest here." ”

What are the dormitory attendants who live here usually do, and even if they don't sleep here, they don't have time to wash their sheets and covers?

As Liang left the bed, the wind he brought up as he walked made the sheets that almost fell to the ground sway. At the same time, a faint yin qi floated out from under the bed.

That yin qi was very, very weak, and if I hadn't deliberately sensed the changes in the Qi field in the bedroom, I would never have noticed it.

I immediately leaned over to the bed, crouched down, and lifted the sheets.

We didn't have a flashlight with us, so I waved to Xian'er: "Lantern!" ”

Xian'er immediately took out the fox fire lantern and came to me.

With the faint green light emitted by the fox fire, I saw a one-meter-square wooden board under the bed, which was covered with unknown talismans, and it could be seen that the wooden board and the talismans on it had been some years, and many of the talismans had been damaged, but the spirit on it was still mellow.

I took out a piece of candy from my pocket and threw it to Liu Shangang, and after watching him eat it, I pulled out the wooden plank under the bed with one hand, and a hole for one person to walk through appeared in front of us.

Without the suppression of those spirit runes, the yin qi in the cave mouth poured out like a flood, and I saw Liu Shangang grinning hard, the expression on his face became very bitter, it seemed that the sugar cubes were starting to work.

I took the fox fire lantern from Xian'er's hand and said to Liang Houzai, "You come to the palace." ”

Liang Houzai nodded at me.

I leaned down and got into the hole under the bed, the hole was vertical downward, the hole was not deep, that is, about a meter deep, but the air in the hole was very humid, not only damp, but the moisture that spread in the air also gave people a very greasy feeling, which made people uncomfortable.

I soon came to the bottom of the cave, and saw on my left hand side a man-dug tunnel, the mouth of the tunnel was square, very low, very narrow, I had to crawl down again, shrink up and crawl slowly in it.

The soil at the bottom of the dormitory building was mixed with a lot of gravel and lime, and when I crawled through the tunnel, the top of my head often touched the top of the tunnel, and the stones embedded in the soil made my scalp hurt, and from time to time damp powder fell down and fell on my face and neck, which made people itch unbearably.

The tunnel was inclined downward, and the further down I went, the more space there became, and I went from crawling forward to squatting until I could stand up upright, and I also came to the end of the tunnel.

At the exit of the tunnel, a black curtain hung down to the ground, and the flickering yellow light shone through the gap between the curtain and the wall, leaving two golden threads on the tunnel floor.

I used my green steel sword to open the curtain, and what appeared in front of us was a cave hall that was not too large.

The real cave hall was the size of half a classroom, and on the floor of the cave hall, many burning white candles were arranged in a circle, and in the flickering light of the fire, a dozen small black mounds were arranged irregularly, and each mound had a narrow wooden plank inserted into it.

From a distance, this dozen mounds look like small graves.

There was no other passage nearby except for the tunnel under our feet that connected to the cavern, and the other three walls of the cavern were blocked.

After making sure that there was no one else in the cave hall, I walked in, Xian'er and Liu Shangang followed behind me, and Liang Houzai was the last to enter.

When he came in, he sniffed twice and then said, "It smells like a lot of rubber." ”

I could also smell that there was a heavy burnt smell in the air, similar to that of cooked asphalt.

I motioned for Liang Houzai not to speak, and asked him to be on guard with Liu Shangang, while I stepped over the candles on the ground and walked directly towards the small black graves.

When I stepped over the candles, my steps were very large, and my body was wide, and there was a lot of wind, but the candles were unusually strong, and after a few flutters with the wind, they returned to a calm burning state, and none of the candles went out.

Xian'er took the fox fire lantern and leaned up to me and whispered, "These candles seem to be made of corpse wax." ”

I nodded, but didn't speak, and crouched down at the same time, picked up a small pinch of black sand from a small grave in front of me, and placed it in the palm of my hand.

From the outside, these tiny particles seem to be ordinary black sand, but they weigh a little heavier than ordinary sand, and on each grain of sand, there is a greasy sheen, and when I pinch them, the touch from the tips of my fingers is very soft, and there is a hint of elasticity, as if I am not grasping sand, but a pile of small particles made of rubber.

The smell of burnt paste in the air also emanated from these black sands.

I sprinkled the black sand in my hand on the ground and whispered to Xian'er, "Do you remember the ghost keeper in the South Seas?" ”

Xian'er pondered for a long time before blinking her eyes and asking me, "You mean...... That old lady Li in the family courtyard of the post office? It was all years ago, and I almost forgot about her. ”

I nodded: "Well, it's her, there were many similar graves in their yard at the beginning. ”

After saying that, I stood up and said to the others, "You go to the tunnel and wait for me, I'm going to go." ”

Liang Houzai was standing at the exit of the tunnel, lifted the curtain and looked into the tunnel, and then turned his head to me and asked, "You want to break the formation?" ”

I nodded at him: "The formation here may have been laid by the Nanyang people, their inheritance is very different from ours, and we won't be able to find any other way to break the formation for a while." ”

Liang Houzai glanced at the small grave beside me, didn't say anything, and beckoned Liu Shangang and Xian'er to go out.

I watched them all enter the tunnel before I stuck the green steel sword on the ground, and took the first step.

When I first came in, I didn't feel anything unusual, but when I took a step, I found that my head was a little woody, as if there was a force preventing me from condensing my mental power, and this power spread from the top of my head to my whole body, and after reaching the soles of my feet, it rose at a very fast speed, and at the same time as it rose, I could feel an upward force, and that force seemed to pull something out of my body.

Fortunately, when I stepped on the star position, the force field of the stars had been suppressed, and the strange force field gathered on me was simply not worth mentioning in front of the star power, and after being pressed by the star power, it disappeared in an instant.

Three steps and nine traces, step on the bucket, each step falls, the star force field in the cave hall will be one point stronger, when I step on the whole set of steps, a large number of candles are extinguished by the star power, and the yin energy in the air has gradually dissipated, only the farthest candle from me is still burning, and it seems to be unaffected.

I kept staring at the candle until the star power faded, and after a while, the star power disappeared and the candle went out.

The cavern immediately became dark and I couldn't see my fingers, and just then I heard a rush of sharp footsteps.

The voice didn't come from the tunnel behind me!

I immediately became alert and shouted, "Xian'er, lantern!" ”

Xian'er immediately rushed in with a lantern in her hand, and under the light of the fox fire, a half-man-high hole appeared in the wall directly opposite me, and a person with a high back was crouching in front of the candle.

When I saw him, he looked up at me too.

He and I were stunned for a moment, and in the next moment, he pulled the candle out of the soil with great force and rushed towards the hole on the opposite side at great speed.

I didn't have time to think about it, so I pulled out my green steel sword and chased after it.

That person is a Luo Guo, and his running speed is not too fast, but the space in the cave is narrow, and it is extremely inconvenient for me to move.

He limped in front of me, and I bent down behind to chase after him, and the distance between me and him seemed to be shrinking little by little.

I didn't know how far I had run, but it wasn't until the moonlight entered the hole that I realized I was almost at the exit, and the distance between me and him was less than a meter.

I stabbed him in the leg with a green steel sword, but he seemed to have eyes in the back, and he was able to dodge it every time without danger.

Coming out of the exit, I found myself on the school playground.

I stood upright, strode at him, and reached for his neck, but he dodged again, and dodged again.

But he only cared about dodging, and he didn't notice that there was a huge stone pier beside him, which was used for leg presses for sports students who practiced martial arts, and it had been placed in the school for more than ten years, and it was still as strong as ever.

With a thud, his Heavenly Spirit Cover slammed into the pier, and I could faintly hear the sound of bones shattering.

Then I saw that his body went limp, and his whole body was lying on the ground like mud, and even the candle he was holding in his hand rolled out.
