Chapter 19: The Iron Lock Bagua Array

"Really? Want to drink something? The bell slowly moved closer with his hands behind his back, and circled the old ghost several times, and the lights in the whole corridor flickered and dimmed, and the red line shone under it, and only a few faint black figures could be seen standing in the aisle.

"Drink tea, but the old man likes to drink leafless tea the most!" The old ghost stood still, his right hand slowly moved to the left side of his abdomen, grasped the iron handle on the scabbard, and secretly pulled the sharp blade out of the sheath by surprise.

The four ghosts who stood at the back of the corridor all moved in unison and slowly stretched out their right hands in unison under the direct light of the faint red light, holding the scabbard that was diagonally inserted at their waists. There was a dark smile on his face, and the sound of a sword being drawn suddenly came from the entire corridor.

The bell walked around behind him, and had already guessed the mystery of the words, and his face was not smiling, and he heard the "stabbing" sound of the long sword coming out of its sheath. Calmly went around again, so he asked, "There are no leaves in this pot, can it still be called tea?" ”

"Haha! If there is no bone in this flesh, can it still be called a man? ”

This sentence is like a mockery, and it is like a password. The sound fell, and the four ghosts quickly pulled out the half-drawn blade directly, turned three steps into two steps, and rushed forward in unison, and the sword waved above their heads and threw it over.

Four swords slashed through the air, sharp blades striking at the bell's back, approaching the heart in the slightest.

Fortunately, the bell reacted extremely quickly, kicked the ground on the tip of his right knee, and dodged sideways, dodging three sharp blades shuttling in the air, and one passed through the back of his head. In an instant, a small braid tied on the top of his head was cut in two by the blade of the knife, and the neat black hair was ravaged and messy, and the black silk floated behind his ears.

Bell turned back, looked down at the half-cut pigtail on the carpet, and his expression froze into ice, "You...... You've broken my hair. ”

After standing by the door for a long time, the old ghost who had not moved for a long time almost laughed three times, then slowly turned around and said: "Little girl, I'm really sorry, our brothers fled here in a panic, and the Necromantic Army is chasing and killing us, it's really helpless, I need to find a substitute to take refuge temporarily, so I have to take your flesh and bones to turn into a fake soul, offended." ”

"Brothers, take the locks and set up a formation." After the old ghost said slowly, the conversation turned to the four ghosts around him.

The four ghosts responded in unison, took off the iron lock pinned to their waists, and shouted with a thunderclap! Surrounded in a circle, head against head, shoulder to shoulder, iron chain around the neck, back and forth diagonally intersecting, and then rotating a few times, retreating to the corner, each holding an iron lock in his hand, the four iron locks are placed in the shape of a five-pointed star.

The bell looked back, took a few steps back, and exclaimed: "I have no grievances with you, and I am an old acquaintance, so why kill each other." ”

The four ghosts raised their left legs at the same time, leaned on their heads in a single word, hugged them with one hand, and shouted in unison: "Iron lock gossip array, let's kill the flesh and bones!" ”

At this moment, the old ghost almost ran down, his whole body shrank into the ground, and he laughed and disappeared in an instant.

The red lights in the corridor didn't know what magic was being cast at this moment, and the rows of shiny and glittering light poles on the ceiling turned into papier-mΓ’chΓ© lanterns in the blink of an eye, spreading out to the surroundings with a faint yellow light.

One of the ghosts threw down the iron lock, strode forward, and stood in the middle of the iron lock gossip chain. With his feet spread apart, his knees bent, his two straight arms stretched out, he unfolded his "eagle talons", and first scratched twice with the old dog sand scraping with his side facing the left wall, and then two seconds later, he shrank his claws sideways towards the right wall and scratched twice.

Then he turned to face the bell and took out two leaves from his chest, and wiped his eyes with both hands, and when the two eyelids opened again, golden fire burst out from his pupils, shooting out two golden arcs of light.

The fox light shone on the blanket, igniting two flames, which opened up in a row to form an orbit. As the fire grew, it spread and burned all the way to the foot of the bell.

The bell took a step back, slipped two ribbons vertically from his sleeves, and slammed his hands into the air and the ground a few times, trying to extinguish the flames under his shoes.

But not only was the flame not extinguished, but the momentum became more ferocious, and the outer flame was more than three feet strong, if it was full of life, like a giant fire man standing tall in the corridor.

The flames burned on the ribbon, and the bell had to fall to the ground, and was about to turn around to escape, but the fire expanded again, forming a circle of fire, and the rapid burning enveloped the bell's entire body.

The bell, which couldn't retreat with his whole body, had no way to stop it again, so he had to run back and forth in the fire, and the ghosts in the corridor suddenly let out a wicked laugh in their voices.

When the fire burned to the ceiling, several of the lanterns on it were burned red, and several of them fell to the ground, spilling oil everywhere, which made the fire even more raging.

The four demons standing outside the fire ring threw the eight-array iron locks in their hands into the air, and the iron locks coiled in the air several times, like a spider web woven with hemp rope, covering the top of the bell's head.

When the chain touched the bell's body, it was covered in electric light, as if it had been slashed down from the skull by a thunderbolt, and white smoke was emitting from all four limbs. The bell was powerless to return to the sky, slumping to and fro on the ground, screaming miserably.

The ghost took a step forward, threw down the two leaves in his hand, and pulled out an iron hook from between his underwear, hooking two curved sickles, as if they were used to scrape the skin. He walked to the fire, held up the bell facing the fallen and said, "I'm sorry, I'm going to borrow the bones in your body today, go with peace of mind!" ”

After saying that, there was another wicked laugh, and the three ghosts behind him poured a ball of dog blood on him, and after being covered in blood, he walked into the fire.

Bell saw the ghost walking heavily with an iron hook in his hand, slumped on the ground, his hands kept rubbing against the blanket, his legs pushed back desperately, and he was so tired that he couldn't say a word.

The ghost walked up to her with an iron hook in his hand and said with a smile: "Oh, you're shrinking, why don't you shrink." ”

For a second, Bell's whole face was expressionless, and she didn't know what she was thinking, and the two black beads were like a pair of dead fish eyes, staring at the ghost who was looking down at her.

"Oh, do you want to beg me, you can come and beg me, if you beg me, maybe I can let you live a few more seconds, ha!"

After a moment, the bell slowly opened its lips and spat out a small piece of moist tongue. The ghost's face turned red when he saw it, swallowed his saliva, and asked, "You...... What do you want to do, I'm a decent gentleman. ”

The bell continued to stare at him, her red tongue stretching out from her lips, and she spit out a finger hanging on her chin, her eyes rolling, and at this moment, she bit off her tongue with her own teeth, and at the same time as the blood gushed out, the bloody half of the tongue also fell on her knee.

Realizing that something was wrong, the onicha took a trembling crooked step and asked, "What do you want to do?" ”

With a pale face, the bell reached out and picked up the tongue on his knee, stuffed it back into his mouth, and took it for about two or three seconds, and his cheeks turned red again.

When he opened his mouth again, a fire dragon erupted from his mouth, hovering and flying to the top of the ceiling, shaking his head and tail.

The fire dragon was full of fire, opened its mouth and sucked all the flames burning on all sides of the blanket into its stomach, and then sprayed the iron locks around the bell's body and burned them on her body, and the iron locks quickly turned into fire slurry, scattered around and turned into small beads of fire.

The fire dragon sucked the fire beads back into its mouth, blowing out the flames that were burning outside the bell's body.

The three ghosts standing behind were already dumbfounded at this time, shaking their two soft legs and running away without looking back.

The rest of the ghost was so frightened that tears flowed, the iron hook in his hand fell to the ground unconsciously, and his whole body was already ossified into wood.

The fire dragon stared at the ghost cha with two dragon eyes condescendingly, and spit out another fireball from his mouth, which smashed straight on the top of the onicha's head, and the black hat worn by the onicha quickly burned.

"Ahh My hair, it's burning me. Holding his head in his hands, he leaned back, leaned against the wall, moved his body frantically, and rolled down the ground along the surface, rolling back and forth several times.

The dragon fire's body instantly emitted a green light, and the green light gushed out a wave of water, and after the water wave disappeared, a burst of white smoke came out, and the smoke turned red after a few seconds, shrinking into a small ball, the more the color looked more and more like blood water, a few drops flowed on the blanket, and after the smoke disappeared, a blood-red tongue fell to the ground.

The bell rolled his eyes, stood up slowly with his hands on the ground, and walked swaying, his face was as pale as paper, and he looked like a dead man. After walking a few steps, he bent down and picked up the half of his tongue, stuffed it back into his mouth, and held it for a few more seconds before black beads gradually gushed out of his pupils, and his demeanor changed back.

After the bell came back to his senses, his face was still broken and a little ugly. Looking down at the ghost who was rolling on the ground, his hair was still burning, he rushed up and stepped on his back, scolding: "You big villain, you also have today, do you really think this girl is so easy to deal with?" ”

However, the ghost was still struggling from exhaustion, his hair burned for a full minute, and he was still burning, screaming more and more miserable, and his face became very different from before, "Ah, my hair is going to burn, save me, who will save me!" ”

Bell's heart suddenly softened, and he seemed to feel a little pitiful when he looked at the ghost who was howling in embarrassment. I inadvertently saw a bottle full of liquor on the wall, and immediately flew into the air with my toe hook, caught it firmly with my hand, opened the lid, and aimed the mouth of the bottle at the ghost's head, trying to extinguish the fire.

Unexpectedly, the moment the wine fell on the top of his head, the fire not only did not go out, but the momentum became more violent, burning his whole face.

"Wow!" The scream almost shattered the stone walls on all sides, and the ghost who fell to the ground was almost no longer human.

The bell was taken aback, a drop of cold sweat crossed his head, and his heart was cold. Stomping his feet, he hurriedly turned around and broke into a private room, took out a few bottles of mineral water from the cabinet inside, took them out, opened the lids one by one, and ran out in his arms.

When I came to the corridor, I was surprised to see that the ghost was already burning all over his body, and the screams coming out of his voice were almost indescribable.

The bell grabbed two water bottles in both hands and poured them directly on him, but there was still too little water to completely extinguish the fire. Bell sighed helplessly and said, "Hey, it's burned to death, it's not a good person anyway." ”

I saw that the ghost who fell to the ground and rolled on the ground stretched out a hand and said miserably: "Sister...... Save me, save me, I'm two wolves, two wolves. ”

"Two wolves?" This name suddenly flashed from the bell's mind, it sounded a little familiar, and after hesitating for a few seconds, he remembered that this was not when He Wei was on an errand in the underworld before, with the thin boy under his hand, he often went to deliver wild vegetable soup to him, almost every day, and finally was unfortunately hanged by the plane tree in one night, and he has not been able to find anyone else so far.

And suddenly appeared here, and I didn't recognize it for a long time.

The bell subconsciously felt that this thing didn't look like a bad guy, and he didn't think much about it, he rushed up and hugged his body, and the two of them fell on the blanket, rolling from the entrance of the corridor to the end of the corridor, and then rolled back to the outside of the hall from the end of the corridor, and it took dozens of seconds for the fire to be completely extinguished.

The bell panted and kicked him away, and the two wolves rolled under a table, their clothes completely blackened, their faces turned into black charcoals, their hair plummeted with white smoke, and they collapsed to the ground like dogs.

The skirt on the bell was also a little dirty, and after getting up, he walked to the side of the second wolf, kicked him in the shoulder, and asked, "Can you still catch your breath?" Are you alive or not, why did you follow the old fox to murder me, and recruit me truthfully, otherwise I will kill you now. ”

The second wolf spit out a few mouthfuls of hot air, slowly turned over, and replied in a zero voice: "It's okay, it's okay, thank you, sister, you are such a good person, you actually saved me." ”

The bell was so angry that he kicked him in the face again, and said angrily, "Don't change the subject, I'll ask you." ”

"Sister, the misunderstanding is really a misunderstanding, you listen to my explanation."

"Forget it, you don't have to explain, since I saved you, I don't want to listen to it."

Having said that, the bell patted the dust on his shoulder, squatted down and looked at his face, and asked, "Why are you here?" How are you still alive? Aren't you already dead? How could you be with that old fox, he's not a good guy, don't look at his mature appearance. ”

"There's no way, isn't this a steamed bun to fill my stomach, in fact, I've already died, and after I died, I flew to heaven, but I died in heaven again, sister, you said that I was pitiful, I was ready to be reincarnated as an adult after the death of heaven, but I didn't expect that at the moment before reincarnation, the woman was not born, and died in childbirth, but I died again, and as a result, I became a ghost again, and my soul drifted to the river of death, but I met an old ghost, and I had no choice but to follow him to continue to mix."

The second wolf said and spoke, holding the table with both hands, just got up and fell down, and he was almost unable to use any remaining strength with bruises all over his body.

"You doll is really, what are you doing with him, it's better to follow me, look at you like you now, I can't stand it anymore." Bell shook her head and sighed as she reached out to help him up.

After the second wolf stood up, he said, "Sister, why are you here, aren't you supposed to be in the underworld?" ”

"It's a long story, I need your help now, and you have to follow me." Bell Road.

"Of course, I didn't have the fate to meet my sister before, otherwise I would have been mixed up with my sister a long time ago, my sister's busyness is my busyness, I will definitely do my best." The second wolf slapped the horse and replied with a grin.

The bell smiled, stood up, looked back at the corridor inside, and after being silent for a while, he looked back at the second wolf and said, "By the way, you used to be a ghost in the underworld, have you ever read the book of life and death?" ”

The second wolf staggered up, shook the black coke on the top of his head, and said with a smile: "I have seen it, but there are several volumes of the book of life and death, and I can't remember it for a while, is there anything wrong with my sister?" ”

"I just want to ask, is there a name named He Wei in the book of life and death?"

The second wolf hesitated for a while, lowered his head and rolled his eyes, and then replied slowly: "Isn't that the name of Lord He?" By the way, his name doesn't seem to be in the book of life and death, but he is indeed dead, and there is no relevant record on the book of how he died. ”

Bell nodded and said with a smile: "By the way, I just want to know how he died, our current location is the place where Lord He once died, according to a pig killing man, when I am with him, I often feel that there is a strange aura in his body, this breath is very unique, neither human, not ghost, not god, not demon." ”

"Sometimes being with him is like talking to the air, and you don't feel his presence at all."

The second wolf thief looked at her with eyebrows, and said happily: "Little brother, I know, does my sister like him?" Otherwise, why ask so much? ”

"That's not it, I always have a sense of intimacy with him, looking at his face as if he is very familiar, just like a family, but when I think of this, my brain will be messed up, and I can't remember." Bell looked back at a torch on the ground, picked it up and asked, "Why is this torch here, I remember it wasn't in the room before?" ”

The bell stared at the burning fire on the torch for a moment, shook his head, and said, "Forget it, two wolves, let's go inside and take a look, maybe we can find something." ”、

The second wolf stepped forward and snatched the torch with one hand, and said with a smile: "Sister, I'll help you shine the light, let's go." ”

The bell loosened casually and looked at the second wolf without squinting, this kind of look was almost numb.

"Sister, why are you looking at me for something?"

"It's okay, let's go." Bell's mood changed, his little eyes blinked and squinted, and he turned around and moved towards the red corridor.

After taking two steps, the bell kept sweating on his forehead, and he shook his body in a daze and suddenly fell to the corner.

The second wolf greeted her with a torch in his hand, and after helping her up, he asked, "What's wrong with you?" You okay? Didn't you just get hurt. ”

Bell raised his head, opened his eyes slightly, and said softly, "No! I just broke my tongue, and this trick can't be used in the yang world, and after using it, my power will inevitably be greatly damaged, and I will also suffer internal injuries. ”

"Sister, can you still stand up?"

"You can stand up, but you can't walk, you can just hold me."

The second wolf nodded, stuck the torch in his hand on the ground, and put the bell on his shoulder. The second wolf's face turned red again at this time, and after picking up the torch, he said, "Sister, let's go." ”

"Nope! You better carry me on your back, I don't have the strength now, just carry it to the room. The bell leaned into his arms, looked down at him and squinted.

When the second wolf heard this, the whole person froze, his eyebrows didn't move, and the sweat on the back of his head flowed like a faucet onto the vest.

"Hey, what about talking to you? I'll just get the torch. ”

"Oh, okay, good, sister, I'm happy." The second wolf handed the torch to the bell again, crouched down behind him, trembled two rows of teeth, and said, "I'm ready." ”

The bell carried his hands on his shoulders and leaned his whole body against his back. The second wolf stood up at the same time with her calf with her hand, two rows of nosebleeds inexplicably flowed out of her nose, and her limbs felt numb, and she was a little unsteady when she walked.

"Am I that heavy? You can't seem to carry me, huh? The bell whispered in his ear.

"No, no, I can carry it, it's just a little panicked." The second wolf stumbled and walked all the way to the corridor, only to see drops of blood flowing on the ground, which flowed out of the second wolf's nose.

The bell patted him lightly on the shoulder, looked at the row of blood stains left on the blanket, and said, "Stop, stop, there are people nearby, whose blood is this?" ”

"Sister, this is my blood, it comes out of my nose, I have had some colds recently, don't mind."

The second wolf carried the bell on his back until he walked to room 003 in the corridor, looked left and right, and asked in a numb voice: "Is this ...... Near...... This is, which room is this near? ”

"Just go into a room, that's it, I need to rest for a while now, and I'll be on the move when I get back."

The second wolf shook his head lightly and kicked open the door of room 003, which was not locked at all, and even a gust of wind could blow it open.

When I came to the room, it was dark inside, and I couldn't see anything, but the room was very fragrant, a very beautiful smell, like a perfume smell, and the second wolf sniffed it with his nose, and felt even more intoxicated.

The bell raised the torch a little higher, looked around, and saw that this room was very neat, and very clean, it could be the cleanest room in this bar, and there was not even a hair on the red sofa.

The second wolf continued to walk inside, and as the firelight lit up, the things placed around him could also be seen clearly. The dΓ©cor of this room is exactly the same as the previous one, except that one is messy and the other is clean, and there is no difference between the two.

When the second wolf saw the red sofa, he walked in that direction with the bell on his back. The bell raised the torch a little higher, and his eyes lit up, and suddenly he patted him on the shoulder and shouted: "Stop, stop, stop, there is someone on the couch, someone!" ”

When the second wolf heard the voice, he immediately stopped his steps, and looked at the spacious red sofa, not to mention a person on it, not even a single insect crawled on it, so clean that there was no dust, and after shaking his eyes for a while, he turned back curiously and asked: "Sister, there is no one on this sofa, how did you see it." ”

"Look down, under the couch, underneath, there's a pair of legs, wearing a pair of high heels!"
