Chapter 5: The Line Between Life and Death
The strange noise in the distance attracted Dongfang Xi's attention, and he knew that he would definitely not stop there, but this speed was indeed faster.
Hurriedly grabbed Zhou Yao's hand and fled forward, and the voice gradually disappeared into the dense forest. seems to be constantly torturing Dongfang Xi. The speed of that ghost must have been dozens of times that of Dongfang Xi, but the ghost had been hiding, as if it had other intentions.
After running a few dozen meters, the sound disappeared again. After thinking about it, it didn't go right, why did the voice catch up as soon as it stopped, and disappear as soon as it moved. "If you think about it, you always hear the voice but don't see the ghost's real body. What is the meaning of the ghost doing this......" After a moment of silence, Dongfang Xi suddenly realized, "It is forcing us to go deeper into the woods." It wants us to get lost in the forest completely, and then turn into my own way and attack the next householder. Damn, fooled! He cursed in his heart. This damn ghost had been scaring himself so that he could get lost in the forest.
"What a ruthless method. This time the ghost is clearly in a very good mind. Some of the tricks were used properly. Know when to strike and when to stop. Now that we're getting away from the exit of the jungle, maybe the ghosts are just starting to catch them now. Damn, it's totally calculated! Slowly speculated in my heart, and sure enough, the ghost's calculation had to be admired.
Dongfang Xi looked at the surrounding environment vigilantly, the trees in this place are widely spaced, it is not easy to hide, but it is easy to escape, but it can be simply said that if you just escape, you will die, and the strength and speed of the ghost are very strong, so now it is almost in a certain death situation. It's not at all okay to rely on your legs now, think about it. "There is no way, only to turn the passive into the active, make a louder noise, and make a sound."
Dongfang Xi is also struggling, whether to use it or not, the risk of this plan is too strong, if the ghost's concentration is low, the winning rate of this plan is eighty percent, and if the ghost's concentration is high, the winning rate of this plan is only thirty percent or less. So now it's all about luck. After struggling for a few minutes, I still made up my mind to implement this plan.
Those who use this strategy must do a good job, and need some cool-headed and flexible people to guide the work, otherwise it will be difficult to succeed, and the second is to attack the east and the west, although it is not necessary to attack the east but pretend to attack, at this time the enemy will inevitably use all his strength to save the east, and then attack the west at this time, to be taken by surprise. Dongfang Xi also used this principle to attract the attention of the ghost first, and then took advantage of his surprise to escape from the range of the pine forest and go to the exit of the dense forest. In between, it is necessary to understand the nature of ghosts.
If this guy is of the cautious type, then this trick will be of little use. After Dongfang Xi told Zhou Yao about the plan this time, the latter was also shocked. But now I can't care about anything, only to do this, otherwise there is only a dead end. Both of them rested for a few minutes, and it must take physical strength to implement this plan, and if the physical strength is not exhausted, it will be quite unjustly killed, so it is necessary to recover some physical strength. After doing all this work, the two began to prepare to work hard.
Dongfang Xi took a deep breath, a baton appeared in his hand, and the sound of ordinary pure iron things hitting was also very harsh, so using such inertia to knock on a tree when he walked a place, it played a role in attracting, while Zhou Yao only used stones. The two also decided to flee separately, so that the other party still had a certain chance of survival.
"Ding... Ding"
At this moment, the voice spread out, and the piercing echo echoed not weakly. And Zhou Yao was not far behind, and the stone in his hand was also flying out with all his might. Peng Tong ...... Peng Tong's voice echoed at the same time, and the two of them shook off and strode towards the outside where they had done the traces. And at this moment, a man with a muzzle flashed in. This is...... Hannibal. That is, Zhu Shuai has been killed. Seeing the voice that suddenly appeared behind him, it was impossible for Dongfang Xi not to recognize that image.
"It worked, and it dragged on for a few minutes. Now it's time to go elsewhere. "My heart was overjoyed. There were also a few more stones in his hand, and he flicked his fingers, "Peng Tong... Peng Tong: "The stone hit the tree with a dull sound. In the distance, Dongfang Xi looked at the black shadow behind him again, and sure enough, it disappeared. Now it's time to follow the clues you left behind and escape. Dongfang Xi smiled and hurriedly quickened his pace, but the only trouble now was ...... The traces have been removed!
"Damn, how did it find this trace?" At that time, the traces set by himself were very subtle, and ordinary people would not have noticed them if they did not observe them carefully, but now they have been cleared, which means that the chance of escaping from the dense forest is much smaller and the speed is bound to slow down. "This is just the first blood letter, why is it so abnormal, the difficulty is comparable to Li Zhen's first blood word." Just as the resentment in my heart became heavier and heavier, a fog filled the surroundings. Gradually strolled through each place.
This is undoubtedly worse for Dongfang Xi, the situation itself is bad enough, and now it is indeed a sideways step. The sense of direction around me has been completely lost. Even such a thick fog would not be able to walk, and in that case it would just sink deeper and deeper. Only wait for the fog to dissipate automatically. Dongfang Xi was also a big chiller, he thought that the instructions that could be given this time were very simple, but he didn't expect it to be like this. Anxious, these four words are very in line with the current Dongfang Xi, he didn't find any hints of life, only found that his luck was so bad.
Discouraged, he slowly sat down on the ground...... At this moment, a man with a mouth mask appeared behind him! The time is 5:50.
And while Dongfang Xi and the others stayed awake all night, in the apartment, Li Zhen's mobile phone also rang.
"Hey... Dad, is there something wrong? In a daze, Li Zhen slowly got up and said.
"Jane, it's time for me to tell you about this, about K City and the apartment." Li Yin said in a deep voice.
"What, does K City really have anything to do with the apartment?" This is Li Zhen just sobered up, he has a lot of questions about the apartment, who built it and why he came to fight against ghosts, all of this, although Li Zhen guessed the origin of the apartment and why he fought with ghosts, but this is also some speculation, after all, speculation is always speculation, and the original meaning of the word has a cloud and mud.
"These little clues are also hard to find......"
"It's nothing, take your time to find clues, and one day you will know everything about the apartment." Before she could finish speaking, Li Zhen hurriedly grabbed the words.
"Hey! You kid. Since 2012, the city has lost a large number of people every five years. In other words, the population of K City will lose by more than half every five years. And these people don't know where they disappeared in the end, there are no bones, in 2016, the first batch of people disappeared, the population disappeared almost 20,000, the pressure of the government instantly reached the extreme, this matter quickly spread to the neighboring city of O City within a few days, the mayor of K City also specially wrapped a red envelope to the mayor of O City, so that this matter was suppressed, and the news was erased at the border of O City, the blockade of this matter was faster, besides, K City was surrounded by water on three sides, so the news spread not fast, The Internet and the media were stifled before they could hype it, and K City concealed it. But just in 2021, the second group of people began to disappear in large numbers, and the total number of missing people this time reached about 9,000, and the mayor was another sycophant to appease this matter, and now, it is another five years, according to intelligence, every five years on June 1, the population of K City will disappear in large numbers. Presumably, June 1 of this year is also unavoidable, so you must pay attention. Speaking of this, Li Yin also sighed helplessly.
"What! Every five years, people go missing, so ...... Could it be the ghost of the apartment? Li Zhen was taken aback, she didn't expect it to be so unpeaceful here, if it was a ghost in the apartment, what was the purpose, it was not a trivial matter that tens of thousands of people would disappear every five years.
"Well, I'm also skeptical, and I'm still wondering if it will be related to the Demon King-level blood word back then, maybe it's the "sequelae" of the Demon King-level blood word! But what is certain is that it may be another opportunity for you residents, which means that there may be another "Demon King-level blood character", but the form and content are different! Li faintly felt that something big was going to happen in the next twenty days or so. And at that time, K City was a city of chaos.
The disappearance of this K city made Li Zhen excited, and looked at his watch, it is now 5:55, so that in another five minutes, those newcomers will be safe for a while! After hanging up the phone, this news had already cleared his brain, made a cup of strong tea, sat in the living room and began to think about this matter in K City, this is undoubtedly a shocking news, I'm afraid even Dongfang Xi doesn't know it now! This matter is too big for ordinary petty officials to know, so you should think about why your father knows about this news.
Shaking his head, it's not about those boring things now, but about what to do next! On June 1st, tens of thousands of people will definitely disappear again, but Li Zhen can't do anything about it, if it's something that can be explained scientifically, it's okay to say, if it's an apartment, even if you know, it's not of much use. After all, the apartment is too powerful, and it is impossible to fight against the apartment without any magical magic. When she came to this apartment, Li Zhen also realized some truths, the environment can never adapt to human beings, only human beings can adapt to the bad environment. Understand the strength of the environment, and all you can do is to conform to the environment instead of going against it.
This truth is fully embodied in this place, if there is no city government or scheming, only to be bullied, as the saying goes: backward will be beaten, so in order not to be beaten Li Zhen must also adapt to the environment and become stronger. He didn't even say anything about his scheming. But after all, it is a child, and in such a wolf den, he must become strong and have the ability to face all foreign enemies, just like ...... Gao Qianyu. This is a typical example!
Smiled bitterly for a few seconds, and slowly drank the strong tea he had just brewed, his habits were exactly the same as those of Li Yin, and a fragrant smell wafted into his mind, and he was immediately refreshed, and the things in the apartment were of no quality. Standing up, after thinking about it, it is time to talk to Shen Feng and Luo Qiu, it is not impossible for the two of them to contact each other, these are all a few fateful feelings, these are still more trustworthy. After making up his mind, he strode towards Shen Feng's room......
At this time, Dongfang Xi in the dense forest also sat on the ground in disappointment, and a figure flashed behind him, that person, no, shouldn't be called, the ghost walked behind him quietly, and a sharp cold light flashed out. It may also be because of the police, who are more sensitive than ordinary people, and habitually turn their heads, but this time they see what he doesn't want to see. It's coming! Out of instinct, the moment the ghost was stabbed, Dongfang Xi still jumped up, and the baton in his hand flashed out.
The ghost didn't mess up, but walked towards Dongfang Xi very calmly, but Dongfang Xi didn't have much ability, he could only fight quickly, he knew how strong the ghost was, so he simply had five minutes, and he would be safe after these five minutes. As soon as it was too late, his figure flickered, and his figure had already appeared on the left side of the ghost, and the ghost slowly raised his arm to cover it. The right hand shook off the knife and hammered it into his abdomen. Everyone knew the strength of that fist, and seeing that the fist was swimming up quickly, Dongfang Xi was also powerless, and this hammer smashed into his body.
"Poof"
With a muffled snort, the sticky blood slowly crossed the corners of his mouth, and in the face of this ghost's attack, Dongfang Xi was indeed powerless to resist, after all, this guy's strength was too strong. However, the power of human beings in crisis situations is very strong!
"Damn, die! How could I have lost here so easily! With a low shout, he strode towards the ghost, and the speed actually increased several times, at this time, Dongfang Xi sped away like a bullet, of course, such an overload speed increase also greatly affected the body function, and it would definitely languish within one to two hours after Dongfang Xi's outbreak. If it is serious, he will foam at the mouth and die a few hours later!
After that, the battle between one person and one ghost at this time also fell into a white-hot stage, Dongfang Xi felt a kind of space-tearing power rushing towards him, a huge wind swept in, and Dongfang Xi was not slow, his feet were slightly bent, and he flicked upward, and the huge bouncing force dodged the huge blow fiercely, and before Dongfang Xi landed, he felt a sharp sound, and an invisible energy swept in, Dongfang Xi just reacted, but it was already a step too late, and the fist floated along his jaw.
"Bang!" With a loud bang, Dongfang Xi lay down on the trees, and the trees behind him were also broken in a rotating shape.
Dongfang Xi looked at his watch in disappointment, there was still one minute, but this minute was enough to kill him. Now the body is also completely overdrawn. Looking around, he was completely disappointed, the surrounding was full of fog, and no matter how powerful people were, it was impossible for anyone to know the situation here. What's more, there are no powerful people, some are just weak girls, and they are not there yet. He bowed his head in disappointment. Accept the judgment of death. The only thing I could ask for now was that time could pass a little faster, with ten seconds left...... And the ghost also walked in front of him, and there were still five seconds, and the ghost had already raised and stabbed at him, and in another second, Dongfang Xi tried his best to block the knife on his arm. Finally...... Finally got through it!
In an instant, the ghost's body slowly turned into mist and slowly disappeared into the air......
At this time, Dongfang Xi also had no strength at all, and lay on the ground softly. "Finally, hahaha... Ahem... Finally got through it" coughed violently a few times and laughed! It was luck to win this time, if the time had been slower. If you don't have the heart to block the knife with your hand. If you don't use all your strength to stall for time. In short, without these, if it were a coincidence, it would now be the ghost's ghost......
With a sigh of relief, he slowly climbed up, and when the time came, the surrounding fog gradually dissipated. And the surrounding markings are also clearly seeping out. This really makes Dongfang Xi happy, which means that he can get out of this ghost place! The fog came and went quickly, and in just a few minutes, the surrounding situation eased a lot, and the vision became very clear. limped out of the terrifying dense forest and looked at the surrounding scene, it was really a piece of heaven...... People only know how to cherish when they lose......
At this time, a few residents stood up on top of a clearing, and looked at Zhou Yao, Mu Keer, Wang Guan, and Li Mang, and two others had not yet appeared. Dongfang Xi, who was punching and limping, smiled bitterly and slowly walked over there.
"What's going on with you, and hurry up and bandage it! Otherwise, your hands may be wasted......" As soon as Mu Ke'er finished speaking, Dongfang Xi's speed suddenly increased and rushed to the front of the crown, and at this time, the crown was indeed at a loss. In an instant, a fist flew to the crown's face. "Bastard, you're such an idiot, it's such a dangerous situation, and you're still thinking about killing me. Is your brain full of muscles? With a punch, Dongfang Xi's face gradually became gloomy.
"Your sister, I'm going to kill you in a while, I have been hiding somewhere with Li Mang and the two last night, and the two of them haven't left a single step, how can I kill you, damn, come up and beat me for no reason, go die!" The crown also scolded with hatred. After saying this sentence, Dongfang Xi didn't understand what was going on, the original appearance and image were indeed the crown.
"Wait, you guys don't fight, now let go of your personal grudges, we have many rifts now, and we will analyze them slowly when those two come out!" Mu Keer suddenly shouted. The two of them were also stunned, indeed, there are a lot of doubts now, so think about it carefully.
