Chapter 8: The Fierce War (I)
I made an OK gesture to Zhang Mi, put on my goggles and jumped down the well.
The water in the well was still so cold, I looked around with my swimming goggles, but I didn't find anything, I held my breath and swam to the bottom of the well, the light at the bottom of the well was much darker, I tried to open my eyes and patrol little by little, for fear that the black-haired skeleton would suddenly come to me and choke my neck, and stay at the bottom of the well for about ten seconds, I felt very strange, because I didn't find any trace of the water ghost, and I didn't know where the broken skeleton scum that I had beaten and struck had gone, how could it disappear for no reason!
I swam to the surface of the water to breathe, panting and shouting to Zhang Mi outside the well, "There's nothing in the well!" Did this water ghost escape? ”。
Zhang Mi shouted to me: "The well is the place where the yin qi is the strongest, the water ghost will not come out easily, you can't find it, maybe it is hidden somewhere, you can look for it carefully!" Especially keep an eye on your back! Water ghosts can sometimes transform into something you can't think of, such as fish or aquatic plants! ”。
I took a deep breath and went underneath the water, and as Zhang said, I began to notice what I hadn't looked at closely, and that was the darkest place around the bottom of the well.
I bolded myself and continued to look for the water ghosts that might be hiding in the dark, and I walked around the bottom of the well, and there was nothing unusual except for the special soreness in my legs, which froze the water, and the lack of oxygen in my lungs. So I swam to the surface again to change my breath.
As I was going upstream, I noticed that the water from the well around me was slowly rotating around my body, and it seemed that there was a force dragging my body, and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't swim! It looks like a water ghost is coming! In order to keep myself underwater for a longer time, I didn't continue to struggle so as not to consume unnecessary oxygen.
Suddenly, however, a black thing swam in front of my eyes, and it was very fast, and although I didn't see what it was, it was a water ghost! At this time, I was a little excited and a little scared. I'm excited because I've found a water ghost, I'm afraid because it's a water ghost, I'm afraid I'll be entangled in the water and drown in the water like last time, and I'm almost unable to hold my breath.
The heart says use the same shadow spell! Otherwise, if you are entangled by water ghosts, you won't be able to send a signal to Zhang Mi.
Then I silently recited in my heart the mantra of the Tongying Mantra that Zhang Mi gave me: 'Three Qing Imperial Decrees, Heavenly Paths Respond to the Same Order, Eight Points of Anger, in front of each altar, put a petition, that is, it is unspeakable, 動! At the same time, close your eyes tightly and put your hands together.
Suddenly, I felt like a light came into my body, and my body was able to move, and I immediately swam to the surface of the water to breathe. At the same time, I saw the black skull covered in long hair! It also spun around me, but much faster. I don't know where I got the courage to grab the black skull's forehead, but instead of stopping it, it sped it up, and it began to smash me around the well, trying to knock me against the wall several times, but I kicked it away with my legs.
But it's not a way to be thrown around by it all the time, you have to break it! It won't toss me like that, or I'll die a terrible death! I thought to myself, and with one free hand, I slammed it at the black skull, but I didn't expect the skull to be very hard, and I tried this hard, not only did I not smash it, but I actually let it escape from my hand.
The water ghost was very fast, my speed was far from it, it ran out and quickly turned around and attacked me, but I found that it had just been hit in the head by me, although it was not broken, but it seemed to have cracked, because there was black gas coming out of it, if I tried a little harder, I think the black skull would have scattered flowers.
The speed of the skull was extremely fast, I didn't have time to guard at all, and it hit me hard from the stomach, and before I could react, it turned back and hit my back, probably because of the relationship with the shadow spell I didn't feel very pain, but was changed a few positions by the water ghost, and when the black skull hit my stomach, it knocked out the breath I was holding, which made me feel the most helpless, and I went back to the water to breathe.
But this time, the water ghost seized the opportunity, and when I was not looking, it came in front of me, and suddenly its upper and lower jaws bit my neck.
I was almost stunned, at a loss, with my hands to beat the black skull, in the third stroke, my right hand on the top of the skull a piece of the skull leaked, my whole fist into the skull, only to feel a stream of black water gushing out from the inside, at the same time my neck also felt a lot more relaxed, this black water quickly spread on the surface of the water, and then at a very fast speed towards a place on the surface of the water, I was afraid that I would not be able to run away if I really angered the water ghost, He quickly broke off the broken skull that was still stuck in his neck, grabbed the rope that went down from the well, and crawled towards the mouth of the well. Just when I was about to climb to the mouth of the well, my body suddenly became very heavy, and my arms were instantly unable to exert strength, and I secretly cursed in my heart that CTNN would not be the time of the same shadow spell!
Seeing that my body fell involuntarily into the well, and the water ghost made the water below into a whirlpool, I desperately shouted to the mouth of the well, 'Zhang Mi, hurry up and save me, I can't do it!' ’
Before the words fell, the rope in my hand took me up, and I looked up to see Zhang Mi pulling the rope up at the well!
Zhang Mi shouted to me, "Are you okay?" ”
I said, "It's fine, but there's a big maelstrom down there, and it's trying to get me into it!" ”
Zhang Mi said to me: "Don't look down, hold on to the rope!" I'll pull you up".
As soon as I got out of the well, I took off my swimming goggles and lay on the ground, and my heart said that it was out, but fortunately Zhang Yu came in time, otherwise I might have been sucked into the whirlpool!
Zhang Mi hurriedly called me up, saying that it was not safe at the wellhead, and maybe the water ghost would come out, and for the sake of my safety, he asked me to go to the folding table far away from the wellhead. Suddenly, I noticed that a huge black sailor sticking out of the well came out of Zhang Mi's back, slowly closing and trying to arrest Zhang Mi!
I hurriedly shouted at Zhang Mi: "Run, there is a hand coming out of the well in the back." I looked back while running, Zhang Mi may not have time to react, he has been caught by the huge ghost hand, and is being dragged into the well, I saw that the situation was not good, so I quickly picked up a long sword on the folding table, and ran back in the direction of Zhang Mi, but my movements were still too slow, Zhang Mi had been dragged into the well!
I stood at the mouth of the well and shouted Zhang Mi into the well, I watched the huge splash of water in the well from time to time, but I was helpless, if I went down at this time, it would only cause trouble to Zhang Mi, but there was no air in the well Zhang Mi couldn't hold on for long! What to do! What to do! I asked myself with my teeth. Suddenly, I had an idea to think of a solution, which was to throw all the magic weapons that Zhang Yi put on the folding table into the well, hoping that this magic weapon could come in handy.
I gasped and watched carefully at the movement in the well, and suddenly I saw something under the surface of the water that seemed to emit a beam of yellow light, and then the surface of the water swirled into a large whirlpool, and the yellow light was about to appear. I also became restless, for fear that Zhang Mi would die below.
After more than twenty seconds, the surface of the water below the well became unusually calm, and there was no whirlpool that had been operated by the tremendous force just now, and there were no bubbles coming out of the water, and nothing was floating up from below.
I shouted into the well: "Zhang Mi, Zhang Mi ......" I couldn't hear anything except the sound of my shouting. And a sentence suddenly popped up in my mind, Zhang Mi is dead, and that's it.
I reached the ground with my ass, and my eyes looked directly at the folding table that I had knocked over, the incense burner that had fallen to the ground, the whole ash that I had stepped on, and the yellow paper talismans scattered all over the ground. I don't know when, the sky gradually darkened, and it started to rain lightly, I wanted to cry, but I couldn't cry, and I don't know why I was crying.
It doesn't seem to be, we've only known each other for a day, but this little Taoist priest with no origin died for me, although we are not friends, not relatives, but my heart hurts, there is no reason to hurt. Maybe it's all my fault, I shouldn't mess with the water ghost in this well, and if I don't call Uncle Jiu instead, nothing will happen.
Just as I was about to leave the place with the pain in my heart, suddenly the well behind me seemed to explode, and a stream of water burst out of the well. Then what I didn't expect was that Zhang Mi actually came out of this old water column, he squatted on one knee on the ground, gasping for breath in his mouth, pressing one hand on the ground, and holding the gossip mirror in the other.
On his back and left arm, he had several deep wounds on his claws from something else, and blood was running down the rain. I was both excited and excited when I saw Zhang Mi come out, and hurriedly ran over to support him, and said with a trembling mouth: "How is Zhang Mi, why did you shed so much blood, are you okay!" ”。
Zhang Mi said to me coldly: "Give me the sword in your hand, you go back to Zhou's house first, and I will go back in a while." ”
As he spoke, he snatched the sword from my hand and pushed me away. At this time, the well is tumbling out with black gas bubbles, and the black gas bubbles flow out along the rainwater when they reach the well, and the speed of the bubbles is getting faster and faster, and the black gas is naturally coming up more and more.
Zhang Mi may have felt that the situation was not good, so he scolded me loudly: "Go, go quickly." Seeing his angry and pleading expression, my mood became very complicated at the moment, but I should still listen to him, this must not be wrong, I looked at him, then got up and ran towards the mouth of the well, stopped next to a big tree, I hid behind the big tree, looked at Zhang Mi who was half-squatting there, and silently prayed in my heart that he would be fine.
The next thing I saw was a figure in a red dress with a cloud of black gas coming out of the well, standing on the boiling blister at the mouth of the well, Zhang Mi was standing in the open space not far from the water ghost, holding a dagger-sized copper coin sword in his waist, and holding a long sword in his right hand. Suddenly, I noticed that the water ghost had an extra whip made of two water jets in his hand.
Stretching out his hand and swinging the whip towards Zhang Mi, Zhang Mi waved the long sword left and right, and easily cut off the water ghost's water whip and blocked the water ghost's attack. Unexpectedly, the speed of the water ghost's long whip was extremely fast, and it came from below, Zhang Mi blocked the whip with a sword blade, but the other side was not in a hurry to dodge and was entangled in the right wrist of the water ghost. Immediately another whip whipped Zhang Mi's body from top to bottom, Zhang Mi was entangled in his right hand, and his left hand was subjected to it, Zhang Mi couldn't dodge the water ghost's whipping at all, and Zhang Mi rolled to the ground after two or three times, but the water ghost attacked with two whips, and slapped Zhang Mi's body together, and the rain by the well was stained red with the blood flowing out of Zhang Mi.
I saw it in my eyes but hurt in my heart, and then I realized that I was incompetent, and I was simply crippled compared to Zhang Mi, and I couldn't do anything.
Seeing Zhang Mi like this, I had to help him, even if the person lying on the ground covered in blood was me, I didn't hesitate any longer, I ran out from behind the tree in two steps. But I found that Zhang Mi had already stood up on the ground, and the water ghost's water whip had stopped empty, and the two fingers of Zhang Mi's right hand were closed, and a shining copper coin sword was hanging in front of his fingers.
A moment of water whip, and the copper coin sword in the air to fight, Zhang Mi while chanting a spell while controlling the copper coin sword, up and down, left and right, the copper coin sword collided with the water whip and made a crisp sound, but a few rounds later, Zhang Mi's copper coin was smashed away by the water ghost's water whip! This time, the water ghost did not whip Zhang Mi with a water whip, but quickly wrapped Zhang Mi's hands and feet, covered Zhang Mi's body in a huge water ball, and then began to inject black resentment into the water ball!
