Chapter 352 The bamboo tube is empty
"What's going on? Are we also poisoned? Ling Xiao also became nervous.
"It has something to do with the town you went to, but don't worry too much, you won't die."
Luda's sentence will not die, but it makes us even more terrifying. Just let her explain it carefully.
Luda told us that the ghost people in that town had been killed overnight by an unknown force, and all we saw was an illusion.
Although I don't know why the murderer did this, or how these ghost people preserved their illusions after they died, all in all, we encountered the equivalent of "ghosts" in the ghost world.
Think about it too, if the ghost people we see are illusions. Of course, there are no ghosts, and the farm tools they are holding may also be illusions, so they will be exactly the same at home. As for the old woman. I've never seen her take anything.
"Don't they know it themselves? Why do I feel like they're still living as usual? ”
Luda told me that the visions of the ghosts did not know their own life and death, and even if they found out that they were dead, they would not be willing to admit it, and they might live with suspicion. And once they find out that they are dead. The illusion will slowly fade away. Hugh every preface brother.
Luda also said that the visions of these ghosts only appear at night, and that we can't see them during the day. That's why the villagers disappeared after daylight.
Yujie was a little worried about the problem of our Baihui acupoint, so she asked Luda what was the matter with our symptoms.
"Everybody who sees this phenomenon has this symptom, I don't understand why, but I know it's not life-threatening. In addition to the Baihui acupoint, you will also have pain in other acupuncture points on your body, and it will get better slowly. ”
Hearing her say this, we were finally relieved.
After Luda told me this, she continued on her way, and she didn't tell me what we were here for, and I didn't ask any more questions.
Luda knows so much about it, it must be because they come here often, and they are mysterious, and I think they are here to find out about the enemy.
Last time, Datou and I relied on the green crystal to successfully infiltrate the capital, and we didn't enter the castle because we were afraid that the king of the glazed country would treat us as thieves and not help us.
This time there will be no such concerns at all, since it's a pool, it should be easy to find, plus it's night, and it's not easy to be found, it seems that this time the Snow Girl is saved.
We came out of the city again. I let Yujie and the Snow Maiden and the strange cow hide their big heads in the woods that are not easy to be discovered. I, Ling Xiao and Qianmo went to steal water.
Yujie stopped me, "Four Tigers, wait! You're going like this, what if we get attacked again! ”
I was really careless, just thinking about stealing water, I remembered the enchantment I learned from the Seventh Prince, so I recited a spell around them and laid out the enchantment. In this way, if someone attacks them, it will become a self-beating self, and it will not hurt them.
I, Ling Xiao and Qianmo directly used the green crystal to infiltrate the capital.
When I got to the outside of the castle, I don't know if it was because of the night, the guards were twice as many as when I came during the day, and I thought to myself, how could this king be so insecure, I have never seen such a heavily guarded country.
"Fourth brother, can the green crystal allow us to avoid their eyes?"
I glanced at the guards standing in a neat row, "difficult"
I explained to Ling Xiao and Qianmo that if we wanted to harness the power of the green crystal, it was for us to pass through these people.
Green crystal is an illusion to hide us, and at the same time, the body may change, but that doesn't mean we're air. And the green crystal doesn't last long each time, so there's no way to guarantee that we won't be discovered once we go in.
"Let me do it!" Qianmo said lightly.
In fact, the reason for bringing Qianmo here is also to hope that she can help us at a critical moment and use her ghost spirit to draw a door out.
"Fourth brother, you put a paper figure in first, in case we finally open a door, but find that there is a room of people over there, isn't it self-defeating!"
Ling Xiao was thoughtful, but I searched all over my body, and I didn't find a single piece of yellow paper, and I always used it recently and didn't replenish it in time.
I can only take the risk and let Qianmo try, according to the experience in Qianning Country last time, the corner of the castle should be relatively safe, so we came to the northwest corner of the castle.
The three of us were extremely nervous, and Qianmo took a deep breath and walked over to the high wall, her ghost energy released and began to draw the door.
The door she painted was not big, just to prevent us from pushing the door open and finding that there were many guards behind it, so that it would not be easy to run away.
The three of us pushed hard together, and the wall fell inward, kicking up a cloud of dust, while we quickly ducked to the side and listened to the movement inside.
There was a heavy panting sound inside, not from a person.
Since the doorway didn't alarm anyone in the castle, I was bold enough to be the first to enter.
As soon as I entered, I smelled a stench of corruption, and when I looked inside, I saw that it was a huge war horse chained inside.
I didn't expect to see such a scene, and then I just looked at it in front of the warhorse.
It had two half-open red eyes, and looked very miserable and tired, as if it didn't bother to bother with me.
Ling Xiao and Qianmo saw that I was okay and followed in.
"Why does it stink so much here!" Qianmo couldn't bear it a little and covered her nose.
I looked around, it looked like an abandoned barn, probably because no one had been cleaning it for a long time.
The horse's skin cracked like lava, and its ghostly aura bubbled out of its body with puffs of black smoke.
The reason why it is said to be a war horse is because it is still covered with torn armor. Although it looks very depressed now, it can be seen that it must have been a heroic horse in the past.
"Why did such a sturdy and huge war horse fall into such a fate?"
I looked at its pitiful appearance and felt pity.
"If the mount really falls to this point, it must have made a mistake and dropped its master, or it has unruly rammed its master."
Ling Xiao whispered, we have come to the gate of the barn, in front of which is a long dark corridor, fortunately there is light in this castle, so we vaguely see two guards guarding the end of the dark corridor.
"Gotta kill those two guards first!" Ling Xiao pointed ahead and drew his long sword.
I nodded, and drew my killing blade as well. There's a lot more ghost energy in the killing blade than it was when I first got it. So now I just have to think about how to hit them in the right place.
The three of us hid our ghost aura and quietly approached the two guards, and Ling Xiao and I stabbed the guards in the back of the heart quickly and accurately.
They didn't react at all. The guard who was stabbed by Ling Xiao was damaged and killed on the spot.
After all, my killing blade was not as long as Ling Xiao's sword, so when I stabbed it, the guard had already realized it, and I dodged to the side, and I stabbed him in the ribs.
He wanted to scream, and I quickly covered his mouth. Ling Xiao wanted to stab him to death with a sword, but I shook my head at him, and then quickly stabbed my hand into the guard's chest, grabbing his ghost.
"Where's the pool?"
He looked at me and didn't speak, and I said in my heart that you are still hard-mouthed, so I clutched his ghost even tighter.
The guard couldn't stand the pain, and pointed ahead, "In the inner garden, right in the middle of the castle. Please don't kill me! ”
I was worried that he would go back and move the rescuers, so I made a gesture to his ghost, and a series of incantations came out, and the guard had lost consciousness and turned into my puppet.
We walked quickly towards the inner garden of the castle, and after passing through a few corridors, I could already feel a powerful energy.
"That pool should be right up front! I feel it! I said excitedly to Ling Xiao and Qianmo.
Strange to say, we saw a group of patrolling guards along the way, and easily dodged it, and the rest of the guards did not see any of them.
It was as if we had entered a no-man's land and came to the inner garden. From afar, I could see the bend in the pond, and the calm water shimmered with golden light, which was very beautiful.
We ran over quickly, and I took out a bamboo tube filled with water, but when I lifted it, it was empty, and there was not a drop of water!
