Chapter 310: Withering
We walked down the path, and the atmosphere around us was horrible.
As a monastic, I know that these corpses have no soul. But they were swaying slightly, like a gust of wind blowing through the trees, and the branches and leaves trembled.
The corpses didn't attack us, but the farther they went, the more they numbered, and they began to breathe as they swallowed. They don't behave, they rely entirely on the relaxation of their muscles to make the illusion of breathing.
They try to imitate the living, and at the same time make the living more fearful.
Xu couldn't help but say, "Do you want to go slowly, and discuss how to escape after a while?" ”
Wushuang glanced at him: "Why are you just thinking about running away?" ”
I couldn't help but argue, "What if you don't run away?" Have we been able to fight so many dead people? Don't forget, the demon and the dumb don't know where they are. ”
We discussed as we went, but in the end nothing came of it. We've been forced step by step. Which way to go, how to go, I can't make a decision at all.
All we can do is act on the opportunity and survive in the midst of danger.
A few minutes later, there was a faint glow of fire in front of me. And the dense Taoist jungle on both sides seems to have come to an end.
Suddenly, Wushuang screamed, turned around, and stared at me viciously.
I was taken aback by her gaze and asked tentatively, "Wushuang, what's wrong with you?" It can't be a ghost, right? ”
Wushuang said angrily: "Fart, you are a ghost." ”
I carefully watched her face, and there seemed to be nothing unusual except anger. I asked her, "So how are you?" Why are you looking at me like that? ”
Wushuang said hatefully: "Why did you pinch me just now? ”
I was a little surprised: "Pinch you? No, when did I pinch you? ”
Wushuang said angrily: "It's only you behind me, who are you?" ”
After saying this, her face suddenly changed. Then he looked around a little nervously.
In addition to the living, there are also dead people around. There are very few dead bodies in this place, but there are a few standing around us.
Wushuang took the flashlight and shone it on the faces of the dead corpses one by one.
They all had their eyes closed, their expressions serene, as if they were comfortable with the fate of death. We took a look around and saw that there was nothing wrong with the corpses.
Wushuang suddenly said: "Xu You, do you feel that there is an extra soul here?" ”
I closed my eyes and let the world go dark. Then, in the midst of this blackness, there were several souls. I can't see them, but I can feel them. One, two, three...... I counted slowly.
Then, I opened my eyes and said, "That's right, there's one more soul." ”
The thin man stood behind us all the time, on guard. At this time, he said, "There is one more soul...... It doesn't seem to be a lonely ghost, but a living soul. One of these dead bodies is supposed to be dead. ”
Then, she drew her peachwood sword and began stabbing the dead bodies one by one.
The corpses looked like they were made of wood, and they had been pierced open. No bloodshed, no cry of pain.
Wushuang stabbed all the way through. Then he stabbed a man with a black face. I shone my flashlight on his face, and suddenly I noticed that the corners of his mouth quivered.
I was overjoyed, and hurriedly pulled out the peachwood sword and shouted, "Don't look for it, it's this kid." ”
The dead body was indeed a living person, and when he saw that we found it, his eyes suddenly widened, and he didn't know what he was talking about. The corpses around us suddenly moved, and they rushed around us.
We turned, wielding our peachwood swords at the corpses. By this time, the man had already taken advantage of the chaos to run.
The abbot shrank in the corner and said tremblingly, "I won't play with you anymore, it's terrible." I want to go. ”
Wushuang scolded: "Let's go, can you walk now?" You can't do anything, you just add to the chaos. ”
The sloppy Taoist priest smiled and joked while blocking the dead corpses that poured over: "The abbot is not useless, there is a master living in his rosary, I suggest that we kill the abbot and release the master, and when the time comes, we will definitely be able to get out of trouble." ”
When the abbot heard this, he almost cried.
Since the fat man woke up, he has been listless, looking like he has just recovered from a serious illness. He held the peachwood sword and struggled to support it, while asking, "Brother, who was that person just now?" Do you see clearly? ”
The thin man shook his head and said, "Anyway, it's a demon person." Who but they would be so boring to control these dead bodies against us? ”
We slashed and killed a number of dead bodies. Another wave of dead bodies. They wrapped us up like a tidal wave.
I felt a chill in my heart, for I sensed that the corpses were not going to drive us away, they wanted to kill us, to make us one of them.
At this time, even Wushuang didn't have the heart to take any more risks. We wanted to escape, desperately to escape, but the dense mass of corpses had blocked the place, and we had no way out.
The thin man's face turned pale, and he said: "These corpses are all cultivators, I don't know how many years they have left, one wave today, one wave tomorrow." But they're all here. They die, become corpses, and deal with the new Taoist priests. This is simply a joint burial tomb for cultivators from all over the world. ”
He finished shouting. Behind him, a dead body wrapped its arms around him.
The thin priest roared, and the peachwood sword severed the corpse's arm.
However, as soon as he broke free from the body behind him, another corpse hugged his legs. He staggered two steps and fell to the ground. Then, being pulled by the corpses, dragged away.
During the whole process, the thin Taoist only snorted coldly at the beginning, and the rest of them kept slashing silently until they were dragged away without saying a word.
We wanted to save people, but we were trapped and couldn't get by.
The fat man shouted angrily: "Brother." Then his fat body crashed into it.
The corpses were knocked into disarray. But it quickly converged. dragged the fat man away without any suspense. Although the fat man has a lot of weight, he can't hold up so many corpses.
The sloppy Taoist priest did not forget to lose his mouth at this time: "It seems that soon there will be two more in this pile of dead bodies." ”
Suppose Xu You, like me, has feelings for fat and thin people. Hearing the sloppy Taoist priest say this, he said angrily: "Can you accumulate some virtue on your mouth? ”
The sloppy Taoist priest laughed cheaply: "Hehe, let's have a fun...... Oops, help......"
Before he could finish his words, he was already dragged to the ground. And then dragged away. As I was leaving, I saw the corpses trying to pull at his corpse.
My head is sweating with anxiety, all along, several of us have not encountered danger, but every time we are in danger, we can turn evil into good fortune and survive in desperate situations, but today, it seems that it is really going to be over.
These corpses will capture us without any suspense, and turn us into their kind.
A sudden despair rose in my heart, and I waved the peachwood sword irritably, even wanting to throw away the peachwood sword and give up resistance.
I don't know how long it took to slash and kill. His arms were sore and swollen, and there were countless corpses around him all the time. It seems that I have been doing useless work just now.
Then, a voice sounded overhead. It was Cao Cao's voice: "These young people are not bad. It can last so long. ”
Then came the voice of the demon Dao, and he said with great satisfaction: "Don't look at their skills as top-notch, this mind is definitely the best among their peers." ”
I shouted angrily, "Demon Dao, are you manipulating these corpses?" ”
A demonic voice came from overhead: "These corpses are controlled by a corpse array. The person who laid down this formation is even more powerful than the Wizards. Do you think I have the power to manipulate these corpses? I'm just pushing the tide. They will kill you, and no one will be able to stop you. ”
I shouted unwillingly, "What about the thin man? What about the fat man? Where have they gone? ”
Cao Cao said faintly: "For two thousand years, there have been countless cultivators, in groups, masters and apprentices joining forces, wanting to break through this big array. As a result, they become dead bodies all around you. And you're just one of them. The few people just now are estimated to have turned into corpses. ”
