Chapter 399: Escape
Wushuang and I saw the ghost officer climb up from the abyss as if he was crazy. That skill reminds me of Spider-Man, Batman, Superman, and Astro Boy.
In short, at that moment, the ghost was possessed by superpowers. Escaped from the abyss at great speed.
As he fled, he shouted in a terrified voice, "Run, run."
Subsequently, he left behind a gust of wind, and a back. Hung me and Wushuang there.
A second later, Wushuang and I reacted. Then he also began to turn and run up the stairs.
Running stairs is not the same as flat bottoming. If you're not careful, you'll trip and fall to the ground.
We ran like crazy. At our rate, if it really falls. It's sure to break your head and bleed. Still, I could feel something crawling out of the abyss. Therefore, we dare not slack off at all. The two feet are like there is some special rhythm. Running quickly up the stairs.
Soon, I came to the top with the peerless latecomer. We overtook the ghost officer and ran ahead of him.
The ghost officer shouted behind me and Wushuang, "Wait for me." Give me a hand. We are good friends, and we can't die without help. ”
Wushuang scolded: "Bah, you shameless." Every time you run away, I don't see you pulling the two of us. ”
However, after all, Wushuang still turned around and grabbed the ghost official's arm.
I'm on one side with Wushuang. Pulled the ghost official hard. Then the three of them marched in unison, running forward.
Our building is a bit old. Actually, even if it's a new building. Walking side by side is also crowded with three people.
The three of us must walk in unison. In case someone makes a wrong move. Surely they will all fall to the ground. As a result, you either fall and get hurt, or you are caught up by something behind, or even both.
The three of us don't have bodies anymore. Falls are secondary. If you are caught up by something behind, I am afraid it will be a real tragedy.
Fortunately, no one dropped the chain at the moment of life and death. We managed to get to the top of the building. In other words, we have successfully driven ourselves to a dead end.
After the roof, there is no way back. And the things downstairs are still spreading up little by little.
I don't know what it is. I only saw the abyss expanding. And our building is falling down little by little, sinking to the ground.
Wushuang asked the ghost officer, "What is there under the abyss?" Why is our building sinking? ”
The ghost official's face turned pale: "That's not the abyss. That's a mouth. I don't know what it is. But it's swallowing our floor. Moreover, I'm afraid I'll get us here sooner or later. ”
Wushuang stomped her foot, and then, I heard her mutter, "Hold down, hold down."
After a few seconds, Wushuang's eyes lit up: "We are immortals." Why do you want to land on this floor? Can't we just fly up and fly somewhere else? ”
I shook my head: "Didn't you notice?" Today, none of our Dao techniques seem to work. We're imprisoned here. ”
Wushuang's expression darkened: "You mean, we are destined to not be able to escape today?"
The ghost officer suddenly pounced and fell to his knees.
Wushuang dragged him with disdain: "If you lose, you don't lose, do you understand?" If you're dead, you're dead, and if you kneel here and beg for mercy, will the other party be able to let you go? ”
The ghost officer said with a sad face: "If you lose, you won't lose? I'm not human, I'm a ghost. Then he looked at me and Wushuang innocently: "Moreover, I don't want to ask for mercy."
Wushuang pointed at him with a peachwood sword: "You don't look like this and are you begging for mercy?"
The ghost officer said, "I want to." I'm afraid I won't be able to escape death today. I see that both of you are true heroes of righteousness, and although it is extremely urgent, you have not left me alone. Instead, they pulled me along and ran along. I think you deserve to be friends with you as brothers with different surnames. ”
Wushuang looked at him speechlessly: "The two of us are worth forging?" The ghost official nodded, looking as a matter of course: "Yes, you two are worth it."
Wushuang asked again, "Because the two of us are angry?"
The ghost officer nodded: "Yes."
Wushuang smiled dumbly: "Then you are so unrighteous, are you embarrassed to befriend us?"
These two are arguing about the sesame seeds. The mouth below is already at our feet.
That's when I saw it. Those paper figures were indeed fleeing for their lives. They want to climb out. But every few minutes, the mouth looks like it's suctioning something, and it sucks them back down.
At this time, there are very few paper figures that crawl out. Moreover, most of them are broken arms and legs. Limbs are incomplete.
Wushuang and the ghost officials stopped talking. The ghost officer stepped back, trying to look like he was going home. But how I see him as if he was going to run away at any moment.
And Wushuang, carrying a peachwood sword, stood beside me.
This mouth is already at our feet. Wushuang and I were silent. Holding a peachwood sword and stabbing down.
But we didn't do any substantial harm to the mouth.
It's like it's connected to the ground. No matter how sharp our peachwood sword is, there is no way to lift the ground like an excavator.
In the blink of an eye, it was at our feet.
Wushuang and I stepped on the roof of the building, slowly sinking into its mouth.
We thought we were going to die. However, we are not dead. The mouth suddenly stopped devouring. Immediately after, it began to shrink.
At the same time, the surroundings gradually brightened. The bright light shines on our eyes, making it a little hard to open our eyes.
Then, I felt like there were a lot of hands pulling at me. My body seemed to be torn apart by the five horses they were dragging along.
When all the sensations are gone. I found that it was already dawn. The three of us are still on the rooftop. But the earth has stopped shaking. The abyss downstairs is gone. I could even see the traffic on the opposite side of the road.
I suddenly felt a wave of exhaustion, and then I lay down on the roof. I can feel the strength I was deprived of last night coming back. But I'm still tired. This tiredness is in the heart. Prostration for the rest of his life.
Wushuang lay beside me. She asked the ghost, "How's it going?" Are we saved? ”
The ghost officer replied solemnly, "Yes, we are saved."
Wushuang looked at him a little strangely: "Why are you sitting so seriously?" Is there a leader to check? ”
I turned my head to look. The ghost official really sat on the roof of the building seriously. The waist is stiff like a veteran.
Seeing that both of us were looking at him, the ghost official said with some embarrassment, "I didn't mean to do this. Just sat here and wanted to die decently. So I put on this pose. Later. Hehe, I was so nervous that I can't move now. ”
Wushuang and I laughed twice and continued to lie on the ground. Look at the sky.
The white of the east is shining, and a round of red sun is slowly rising.
Wushuang sighed and said, "It's like a dream." How did we live for no reason? ”
I nodded, "yes." Somehow he was saved. ”
The ghost official said with a selenium on his face: "It may be that the people who set up the formation no longer have the strength to fight with us anymore." It seems that his strength is still not strong enough. I saw this kind of formation once. It was really thrilling, and it took three days and three nights to fight before it ended. On that day, tsk, there were countless deaths and injuries, and there were countless deaths in our village alone. ”
I looked back at the ghost officer curiously: "Have you ever seen this formation?" At what time? ”
The ghost officer thought for a moment, "I don't remember exactly when." It was a long, long time ago, though. At that time, one or two immortals could be seen in the world from time to time. Then one day, it seemed that two immortals were fighting, and one of them trapped the other. Not to be outdone, the other broke through the formation. In this kind of formation, the person who arranges the formation is putting his net worth and life on the line. Under normal circumstances, it is the people who are in the battle, and the people who are killed in the battle. So, if this formation is withdrawn from the outside, it will be fine. In case someone breaks it from the inside. I'm afraid that the people who set up the formation will not live for a few days. ”
I looked at the envoy in amazement, "What were you doing?"
The ghost envoy said, "I was just an ordinary villager. I heard that there are gods outside the village. Just go out with the group to see. I didn't expect that. The city gate caught fire, affecting the fish in the pond. This life is almost gone. I fainted. When I woke up again, the two immortals were gone, so I don't know who won at that time. ”
I caught on to his mistake: "You were just an ordinary villager at the time? Then why do you study this formation so much? ”
The ghost officer said very frankly: "Where do I have research? It's just that the Jizo King Bodhisattva of the underworld will also set up this formation. I asked him for a long time, so I remembered it clearly. ”
I nodded and said, I see.
