Chapter 490: Ancient Forces
I wasn't sure if the other party had spotted me, so I put away my ghost aura and quickly chased after me.
The street they entered was narrow and muddy, and the houses on both sides looked like they had not been inhabited for a long time, and some had even burned down. Only ruins remain.
At the end of the street was a high wall, and when they reached the base of the wall, the two men suddenly disappeared.
I listened carefully to the movement around me, and it was surprisingly quiet, where did those two go?
I stood in the shadows blankly, wondering if these two were just ordinary snitches, maybe Yujie was too sensitive, and I was too suspicious.
It was a dead end, and I suddenly had a bad feeling that my hand was already on the hilt of the knife while slowly stepping back.
"How's that guy?"
"It's not easy to deal with, there is a monk who is very powerful."
"Boss. What to do next, we seem to have been discovered. "Woody end.
"I think," the boss's voice said, and suddenly it became smaller, and I couldn't hear the rest of the story.
Voices came from a small dark room at the end, and it was three people who spoke. When I heard them say 'monk', I was sure that they were talking about a few of us.
It sounds like they haven't noticed me coming with me yet, I feel the ghost spirit of these three people, fortunately it's not strong, I should be able to deal with it with paper figures.
I'm going to grab them and ask them about it. Let's see who instigated it. If it's the Adversary, it means that the Adversary has already followed us, and we have to be careful every step after that.
But if it's really the devil's person, then the subordinates he sent this time are a little too weak.
I slowly approached the little dark room, put down the three paper figurines, and let them sneak in first. Then I used the perspective of the paper man and controlled the paper man outside, so that I could get the three of them without showing up.
There was no light in the hut, and my paper figure couldn't see anything, only the ghost aura of the three of them, and felt their position.
But I don't know why the paper figures suddenly seemed to be out of control, I wanted them to give the three of them a fatal blow, but no matter how many times I recited the incantation, the paper figures seemed to be petrified, and finally the paper figures ran out of their own and jumped into my hands.
Could it be that I am not proficient in the spell that Tatsuya taught me? Or is there something weird in that house?
Anyway, let's go in and have a look, so I used my ghost aura to protect myself and walked towards the hut.
As soon as I stepped in. The door slammed shut.
Then there was a 'boom'. A flame jumped high, an oil lamp was lit, and I could see the people in the room.
It's not just three people at all, it's a group of people! I'm surrounded by people now, and it looks like they've already spotted me, and they're ready to wait here.
These people were dressed in black, all wearing strange and terrifying masks, and holding golden bells in their hands, which looked like they were jumping ropes.
The paper figure is useless, and Yujie didn't call anyone else, so I'm really alone now. So I opened my ghostly aura and pulled out my soul, ready to meet the attack of these masked men.
After a confrontation for a while, I realized that they didn't seem to have the intention of attacking me, and I said in my heart that it was just right that you didn't do anything, and it was not easy for me to deal with so many people alone anyway. As long as I can delay a little longer, they should be there later, and then they will be finished.
"You're sent by the Adversary, aren't you?" I stabilized myself and tried to release as much ghost energy as possible to deter this group of people, so that they would not dare to do anything to me.
One of them, wearing a red mask and looking a little stronger than the others, suddenly uttered a string of incantations as if he were chanting.
Immediately after that, the people in the room began to circle around me, and they rang the bell and chanted as they went.
I said in my heart what this group of people are doing, is it really jumping rope? But looking at his posture, it looks like he is holding some kind of sacrificial ceremony, very much like a cult organization.
Just when I didn't understand it, I suddenly felt a ringing in my ears, and all the ghost qi in my body began to run around uncontrollably.
They walked faster and faster, and I became more dizzy, and I chanted a mantra to calm my mind, trying to stabilize myself with my ghostly energy, but it didn't work at all.
Soon I felt weak, and I fell to my knees.
It felt like being picked up and spun around in the air a hundred times, and my stomach was already tumbling.
I don't know what method they used, I couldn't shout if I wanted to, now I just hope that Le Xing Monk and Ling Xiao will come soon.
In fact, this street is not far from where we live, and Yujie also knows that I am here, this street is a dead end, and there is no other fork in the road, it stands to reason that Yujie should have called Ling Xiao and them, did she encounter any danger halfway?
Thinking of this, I was even more anxious, and I had to find a way to report to the Le Xing Monks.
Suddenly I remembered the falcon, and I whistled with all my strength. After a while, a few cries of the spirit falcon came from outside the door, it was spiritual, and now I could only hope that it understood what I meant and sent a message to Le Xing Monk and Ling Xiao.
Suddenly, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and the masked men finally stopped. But I was still weak and my vision was blurry.
I tried to concentrate my ghostly energy on the green crystal and chant the incognito spell.
It's really useless?! I tried a few more times in a panic, and then I despaired.
I admit that I'm really scared this time, maybe I won't be able to control my ghost anger in the future, right?
“TMD! What did you do to Lao Tzu just now? "I yelled at the crowd angrily, and that was the only thing I could do right now.
"Take it away." The man in the red mask said in a strange voice.
As soon as he had finished speaking, I dimly saw two men walking towards me, twisting my hands behind my back, then chaining my hands, and then pulling me up like a chick and covering my head with a sack.
At this time, I suddenly heard the sound of the door being kicked open, and the familiar ghost qi poured in, and I was happy in my heart, Ling Xiao and Le Xing Monk are here! Suddenly there was chaos in the room.
I felt like my spirits were lifted a lot, and the ghost seemed to be recovering, and I struggled to break free from the two people who were holding me.
Suddenly I felt a sharp pain in the back of my head, and suddenly my eyes were full of stars, and then I didn't know anything.
When I woke up it was the second day, and I found myself back at the blacksmith's house, while the others were gathered around my bedside.
"Fourth brother, you're awake!" Big Head said excitedly.
I sat up with the back of my head covered, and the first thing that came to my mind was whether I could still use the ghost qi, and I quickly opened the ghost qi. Qingxue looked at me inexplicably, "Four Tigers, what's wrong with you?" It's safe here, put away your ghost! ”
I hurriedly put away my ghost qi and finally let go of my hanging heart. I explained that I thought I wouldn't be able to use ghost qi in the future.
I thought of those masked people, so I asked Ling Xiao, "Did you leave your mouth alive?" ”
Ling Xiao shook his head, he told me that the two masked men took me out of the chaos, so the monk chased me out and rescued me.
Some of the remaining masked men were killed, and some escaped. Just as Ling Xiao and Datou were about to catch up with those who had escaped, they were suddenly disturbed by the bell they were using, and the last one did not catch them.
Ling Xiao asked me to tell me what the situation was at that time, and how I ran there by myself.
So I explained in detail how I was trapped at that time, and then I asked Le Xing Monk if he knew what kind of crooked ways this group of people were using, and there was no room for me to resist at that time, as if I had been under a very powerful curse.
After I asked, the monk pondered for a moment and said, "I think they are very much like an ancient force that once existed in the demon world, but they have long since disappeared. It is said that it was because they had used the evil ghost path excessively and were forcibly suppressed by the ghost town of Fengdu, and now it seems that they have reappeared. ”
If that's the case, then the opponent we face this time is not simple.
It is not difficult to see from this incident that they have been prepared for a long time. First create a false impression and deliberately lead me into the house, arrest me and then take me away.
