Chapter 49: Late at Night (28)
"What's that in your hand?"
When he walked to the stairs leading to the fourth floor, Ye Baiyu couldn't hold back his curiosity after all, and asked Xia Beifeng, "Why is the evil qi so heavy?" ”
"I don't know. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Xia Beifeng pressed the wound on his wrist, and his mind was full of the thing under the wound that was desperately struggling to get out: "The things that the old people in our family put here for me have been with me for some years, and I only learned today that this thing can still scare snakes." ”
"Put it in your ...... Raised? ”
Ye Baiyu was suddenly shocked: "Take your blood to raise this kind of thing?" What did your parents think? ”
"It seems to be for my brother's life. He wasn't in good health when he was a kid, and he's been fine since he got this thing, and I don't know exactly what's going on. ”
After all, you obviously brought this thing to me, and you don't know what you're thinking, how can I know.
Xia Beifeng glanced at Ye Baiyu in a complicated mood, and turned sideways to avoid his inquiring gaze.
The knife just now was too deep, and it seemed to alarm something hidden in the arm. It was writhing desperately, as if trying to stir up the flesh beneath his skin.
"It's usually too lazy to die, and it's never been able to ask it to do a favor. I don't know what's wrong today, such a toss. ”
The power in the body was flying away with the thing that was struggling near the wound. He stopped, took two breaths, let go of his left hand that was pressing the wound, and looked down at the uncontrollable twitching muscles on his arm~: "Maybe I can't feel the breath of the other half, panic." ”
"The other half?"
"At my brother's, he's a little far away from me right now."
Xia Beifeng said with a gesture: "I mean, we're already on the other side now." ”
Ye Baiyu's face changed, he nodded silently, and suddenly asked after a while, "When did you find out?" ”
"Senior Ghost King reminded me before. If I found out for myself...... I guess I just saw the neurotic wound corpse. ”
Being able to become like that while still alive is the only explanation for it.
"When we were down there before, there was a period of thunder and an earthquake, and then the corpses were raised, so that's when we came down."
"Almost."
Ye Baiyu sighed: "At least there is no problem when I go to chase Xue Qing." The two of us were fighting a bit fiercely, and by the time I found out, it was too late. The specific time is estimated to be known only to the old thing of the ghost king. ”
"I heard from that senior that it was because something called a boundary monument was broken. Do you know what that thing is? ”
"The boundary monument is broken?"
Ye Baiyu suddenly gasped: "That's really a big deal!" ”
He stopped in front of the iron door leading to the fourth floor and reached out to push it.
The iron door did not move.
"Locked?"
He hooked the chain hanging on the door with his knife, and was surprised: "And put three locks?" \'
"Ah, I forgot about it."
Xia Beifeng thought about this door: "This door has always been locked, and a nurse told me before......"
Halfway through the words, Ye Baiyu, who was standing by the door, seemed to have seen something strange, and exclaimed, "They actually locked this door." ”
He reached out and touched the heavy dust that had accumulated on the door lock, shaking his head and sighing.
"I didn't save this group of people, this door is the most immovable thing in this building, even if they close it, there are so many locks!"
He lowered his head and blew on his dusty fingers, and said helplessly: "A group of fools, it is not unjust to die." ”
"It's useless to talk about this now, let's open the door first."
Xia Beifeng patted him on the shoulder: "Are you sure the two of them are on the fourth floor?" Don't bother to open the door and find no one, that's fun. ”
As he spoke, he glanced down at a mini compass that Ye Baiyu hung on his waist.
Because of the surrounding environment, the compass pointer has been turned into a windmill, and it does not play the slightest role in guiding the direction.
"I don't know, I guess it's here......"
Ye Baiyu inserted the blade into the crack of the door, but he touched something hard, and immediately angrily swung the knife directly to the iron lock on the door.
"I'm fucking soldered to death for Daoye, you guys are really tired of being crooked, aren't you!"
Xia Beifeng's worries did not come true, He Zhan was indeed behind the door.
After the metal door was violently destroyed, the two finally saw the tragic situation behind the door.
Blood almost covered the hallway, and in addition to the blood splatters on the walls, there were also slashes from the blades. There were few intact windows left on the walls, and the snowflakes outside the windows drifted into the building in the wind, and the pool of blood was full of sparkling glass shards.
There were many broken corpses lying on the ground.
The corpses were not only marked by blades, but also often scratched, and even some of the mutilated corpses had marks that resembled the bite of wild beasts.
The sound of swallowing came from the end of the hallway
Xia Beifeng looked at the figure in front of him who was squatting on the ground and gnawing something, and closed his eyes a little unbearably: "He has already started to eat meat, he is completely helpless now." ”
"Yes! Now you can treat him like a monster completely, remember to be careful of being bitten by him. ”
Smelling the scent of the living creatures, the crouching monster at the end of the corridor slowly raised its head and let out a beastly roar.
The edge of the wound on his leg that was burned by the rune paper was blackened, and a large piece of flesh was missing in the center, revealing the pink tender~ flesh below. Looking at the shape of the wound, it looks like he used a knife to dig it out.
This is probably the only thing that exists in him that can be attached to humans
His face was covered in bruise-purple marks, and some of his skin could be seen in its original color, as well as blood splatters on his face, which were strangely mixed together, making him look like a palette.
He Zhan howled from behind, then put down the arm in his hand, slowly stood up, and walked towards the two.
"You're here again......"
His voice sounded very strange, like the harsh sound of rough and uneven stones rubbing, jerky and sharp.
"Why are you so annoying, you can keep up with you wherever you go, do you want to die like this?"
He smiled strangely, raised the knife in his hand, and stretched out his tongue to lick~ the blood stains standing at the corner of his mouth.
Xia Beifeng only saw a black shadow sweeping through the long corridor, and in the next second, He Zhan's face appeared in front of him.
The blade made a sharp grinding sound as it broke through the air, and even a few sparks were sparked at such a fast speed.
He didn't have time to dodge, he could only watch as the blade glowing with cold light quickly enlarged in his eyes.
In his ears was He Zhan's piercing laughter, and the blood stains and minced flesh on the blade in front of him were extremely clear in front of him.
The cold blade was filled with the smell of death and decay, bringing a wave of despair that prevented those who looked at it from even having the will to resist.
The moment you feel death coming, time seems to be infinitely extended.
Countless images flashed through his mind, almost looking back on his short and inactive life.
Am I going to die in this hellish place?
Ah, right. Xiaotian has a birthday today, and he hasn't cooked noodles yet, so he will probably be scolded to death when he goes home at night.
It's better to die here now.
A huge force came from his side and knocked him directly to the ground. At the same time, there was a crisp sound of metal crashing in my ears.
Before Ye Baiyu could split his head in half, he stopped He Zhan's knife and kicked him away by the way.
The blades of the two pressed together, each exerting force, and they were deadlocked.
He Zhan was very surprised and said "Huh", and for the first time, he glanced at Ye Baiyu: "The Taoist priest surnamed Ye...... You're not afraid of ......."
Before he finished his surprised words, his face suddenly turned cold. As if he had received some instructions, he stiffly spit out a few words: "When I met a Daoist surnamed Ye, I stabbed him directly." ”
As he spoke, he suddenly exerted his strength and pressed Ye Baiyu's knife down a few points.
Ye Baiyu pushed the pressed blade back a few points with difficulty, and showed a contemptuous smile towards He Zhan.
Damn, why is this guy so strong all of a sudden?
It's still fast like a ghost, but it still retains a bit of intelligence?
This mutation process does not conform to normal laws.
"Fight with me, right?"
He squeezed the words out between his teeth, and the hand holding the knife trembled a little from the tremendous pressure of the other party.
Xia Beifeng smashed the back of his head on the ground, and after a blackening in front of him, he got up from the ground with his waist up.
Ye Baiyu held the knife in one hand and held the knife in front of him. I don't know where to find a piece of rune paper, and slap it directly on the arm holding the knife.
The rune paper hung on the sleeve of the coat and burned quietly, and the cyan flames shook the faces of the two people who could not hold each other, and the faces were extremely strange.
In the next second, He Zhan actually maintained this posture and was pushed away.
"Come on!"
Ye Baiyu moved his shoulders and looked condescendingly at the monster that fell to the ground: "Don't you want to compete with me?" I'll satisfy you now! ”
He Zhan rolled twice on the ground and slammed into the ground. His body twisted into an unnatural shape, like a huge black monkey, and his feet stepped on the wall beside him, and he jumped to the ceiling in a few leaps, and he didn't have time to see it clearly.
He jumped down from a height and pressed towards the top of Ye Baiyu's head with a knife.
Once again, there was a crisp echo when the two knives collided.
The monster was once again swept away with a sword, slamming its back against a wide open door, and flying away with the door panel.
"You ......"
Xia Beifeng, who had finally recovered from the severe pain, cleared his throat, and looked at the burned rune paper on Ye Baiyu's arm with a little embarrassment: "If you work hard, please go up and be considered cheating." ”
But Master, do you still have this kind of skill that ordinary Taoist priests commonly use? How did I not know about this before?
You've always called yourself poor, but I've always thought you were a druid with your own summoner skills.
"What do you ask God to come up, don't say it so ugly!"
Ye Baiyu waved his knife righteously, once again blocking He Zhankuai's dazzling movements: "Haven't you heard of qigong?" Pick leaves and fly flowers, and take things from the air! It's pushing the limits of what I'm trying to do, and it's science, you know! Science! ”
No, you know, in the era I lived...... Twenty years later, Qigong has been identified as a charlatan.
Although I know that you are a charlatan, please don't believe in the pseudoscience of qigong!
He Zhan screamed strangely, constantly swinging his sword to attack his enemy from the front.
This thought completely occupied his consciousness, and the few remaining brains had no time to think about anything else...... For example, where did the woman who had been following him go now?
"Where is Xue Qing?"
Xia Beifeng looked around, making sure that the woman he was really looking for was not nearby.
"Why did she leave this madman here alone?"
"Maybe you are ambushing somewhere to prepare for a sneak attack, or you may be out to watch the boundary monument explode. It's a pity that she can't get the results she expects when she chooses whichever she chooses. ”
Ye Baiyu said casually, once again blocked He Zhan's attack, lowered his head lightly~ and gasped twice: "This madman's strength is getting bigger and bigger, do you guess how much blood food he has eaten?" ”
"Can you still hold on?"
Xia Beifeng looked at him uneasily: "Why don't I come?" ”
"Forget it, I don't listen to anyone with this knife."
Ye Baiyu waved at him and said indifferently, "It's okay...... Well, no problem for less than half an hour. ”
As for half an hour later...... Let's live until then.
He looked at the paper dust remaining on his sleeves. Sighing softly, relying on his blade to grow much longer than his opponent, he swung a knife at He Zhan's neck.
When the blade touched the skin, it felt like it was slashed into stone.
However, even a stone can be split in half under a sharp blade.
He Zhan let out a strange scream, covered his neck and quickly took a few steps back, standing a few meters away, panting for breath and glaring at the two viciously.
The blow left him with a wound that could be heard from far away mixed with pain.
But no blood oozed from between his fingers clutching his neck.
"Ahh
He roared and rushed forward with his knife raised again.
The blades of the two men staggered and collided, sparks were sparked, and the frequent sound echoed in the dead silence of the hospital.
The increasingly restless thing in Xia Beifeng's wrist suddenly stopped.
The sharp pain ceased, and the fear of the thing ran down his arm to his mind.
A roar of thunder followed from the window.
He subconsciously turned his head to look out.
The desolate land outside the window flashed with dense thunder everywhere, and the wide river in the distance rolled up giant wolves several meters high, rushing towards the shore in waves.
The towering boulder shook constantly, and the red characters written on it melted into an irregular red mass at some point. Bright red light swirled on the boulder, flashing against the thunder and lightning.
The Ghost King stood on the boulder, holding a strange-shaped black sword in his hand, and fought against several figures of different heights.
"The Ghost King's seniors seem to be fighting outside."
Xia Beifeng asked Ye Baiyu worriedly; "Is he okay, will he be in danger?"
"Are you crazy? How could he be in danger? ”
Ye Baiyu took the time to turn around and give him a surprised look: "Besides, what can you do to help him in a dangerous situation?" ”
That doesn't sound like a problem. But the listener has a subtle, discriminated illusion.
"I said Brother Xia, you and that should be the first time you've met him."
Ye Baiyu was interested again at this time. While dealing with He Zhan, who was moving faster and faster, he turned his head to him and asked, "The first thought of ordinary people when they see him is either to run or take him in." You're different. It's okay to talk and laugh with him, but now I'm actually starting to care about whether something will happen to him. ”
"My ...... No...... Do you know him well? ”
"But it's the first time we've met today, right, and you're so easy to trust others?"
Master, don't you think it's too late to think about this now?
Xia Beifeng cleared his throat, nodded solemnly, and explained in vain: "I don't think you guys are like bad people." ”
"I'm glad you're not a bad person, but that ...... He's really not a bad guy because he's not even a human being! ”
"At least it used to be a person."
"I've heard that being alive is a scourge. does not take human life seriously, and often massacres and worships God. ”
"Then if you die, maybe you will change your ways."
Ye Baiyu: "......"
He was shocked by this person's Qingqi's brain circuit, he couldn't speak for a long time, and he was almost cut off half of his arm by He Zhan because of his distraction.
"Don't worry about the details."
Xia Beifeng stared at He Zhan's red eyes in the dark, and asked in a low voice, "Can you still hold on?" Do you need my help? ”
"If you can help, help!"
Ye Baiyu smiled bitterly, and the tip of the knife grazed the corners of He Zhan's clothes, but it failed to touch his body: "I just tried, this thing is now not afraid of the moves to deal with zombies." If you have other ideas, you can try it too...... Fuck it! What the hell has become of it! ”
"Then I'll try."
Xia Beifeng glanced out of the window again uneasily, and the ghost envoy reached out and wrote a few words on the wall.
He Zhan, who had long been out of gravity and was jumping on the wall, suddenly screamed, and his leg bones seemed to be twisted into an unnatural shape by a pair of invisible big hands, and he fell from mid-air to the ground.
Ye Baiyu didn't say a word, and went up to mend the knife.
This knife went directly at He Zhan's head. The man who made the knife was determined to take his life, and he did it without mercy.
A strong killing intent came out from Ye Baiyu's blade, and even the long knife with rust let out an excited whisper.
He Zhan endured the severe pain, and crawled with his hands and feet to avoid the vital point, leaving a long knife wound on his back.
He tossed around in the darkness a few times and hid in a room beside him. Purple blood spilled down his escape route, leaving a foul stench on the ground.
"If you can't beat it, run away...... It doesn't look like the brain is completely rotten. ”
Ye Baiyu shook the blood stains on the knife, turned his head and asked the person behind him, "What was your trick just now?"
"I don't know what it is."
Xia Beifeng spread his hands at him, his expression was very innocent, but there were more doubts in his heart than him: "I heard the voice of the ghost king's predecessor when it was thundering just now, and then I drew this thing." You haven't seen it either. ”
Ye Baiyu: "......"
It's hard to protect yourself, and you're still thinking about us here, you're just a ghost of the blue.
He nodded respectfully at the blurred shadow outside the window: "Thank you, I will definitely give you a pillar of incense when I go home." ”
Several people outside the window had already formed a mess.
As if sensing his gaze, the Ghost King turned around and opened his mouth to say something to him.
"Behind you."
He heard the ghost king's vague voice ringing in his ears.
The broken glass was reflected~ Xue Qing's resentful face.
