Chapter 3: Escape from Death
"Okay!" Although the restraints on her clothes restricted her movements, she still always looked energetic, which made Zuo Sheng feel good when she saw it.
Ye Shi walked through a small dark alley, saw a small door with a side cover through the moonlight, pushed it open with a creak, and stepped in. The courtyard is very small, and next to the abandoned small firewood house, there are two thatched houses. She tore off the hosta on her head, kicked off her shoes and walked a few steps on the flat ground, and the squeezing and soreness of her toes eased slightly.
After she finished going to the thatched house, she finally finished tying the cumbersome belt on her body, sweating profusely, and when she caught a glimpse of the little dark alley when she came, there was more treacherous light, and hurriedly turned sideways, hid her figure through the wooden door, and looked out of the door.
A monster as high as the wall swaggered by, its whole body covered in black air, and it was impossible to see it realistically. Only a string of white bones hanging from the curled arm was clearly visible. It was followed by a magical species that resembled an ancient tree, and its leaves were also made of black gas, floating around the trunk of the tree, hiding in the infinite darkness.
Ye Shi watched in shock as the strange ghosts passed by the door in a regular manner, and went straight to the black-robed man at the end of the dead end. He had a small bottle in his hand, but it was like a bottomless pit, which could hold a hundred ghosts.
It's the group. Unexpectedly, they were already strong enough to drive ghosts at will...... She frowned tightly, and just wanted to retreat, but unexpectedly stepped on the hem of the Baishui skirt, and fell to the ground, her ankle seemed to have been cut by some sharp weapon, and there was a tingling pain.
"Who?" A hoarse voice that was indistinguishable from a male and female sounded dangerously.
Damn it. Ye Shi cursed in his heart, ignoring the dull pain from his ankle, he lifted his skirt and ran up.
"Hashihime." A red-clothed female ghost with a cloak emanated pulled out of the hundred ghosts in response, and floated towards Ye Shi at an extremely fast speed following the smell of the blood of the living.
It's so fast, it's not even as light as it gets...... She gritted her teeth, and seeing that the female ghost was about to wrap herself up, she took out a spell from her bosom, put it on her forehead, and shouted:
"Incognito." Seeing the female ghost looking around, she hurriedly pulled out her legs and ran. She pushed open the back door, and a hand with the scent of medicine suddenly covered her mouth. She was so surprised that she was about to kick over, when a calm voice sounded:
"It's me." Ye Shi stiffened, but his feet couldn't retract, Zuo Sheng snorted and said:
"Seeing that you haven't come for a long time, I know that something is wrong, that ghost is very powerful, let's go quickly." Ye Shi nodded, the two supported each other, stumbled to a warehouse, Ye Shi shook Zuo Sheng's wrist, leaned against the wall, and said breathlessly:
"I'm injured, I smell of blood, it will come to the door no matter what, you go quickly, only you can catch him, and it can be regarded as revenge for me."
"What nonsense?!" Zuo Sheng saw that Ye Shi, who had always been optimistic, said these negative words, and he felt very uncomfortable. He quickly tore off his belt, wrapped it tightly around her bleeding ankle, and then sat down in the barn with her, watching the ghost's movements without blinking.
Although the spell given by Jiujiu can hide traces in front of the black spell, it only has the time of a stick of incense, and now it ...... Ye Shi glanced at the spiritual power that was gradually dissipating, and Qiao Ji who walked to the door of the warehouse, closed her eyes, and smiled bitterly: she had imagined thousands of ways to die, none of which were like today. The powerlessness that is difficult to resist even though I know what I am facing, is really damn aggrieved.
It's just Zuo Sheng, if he doesn't come to this troubled water, he will definitely be able to save more people...... But now, he, a person who values justice more than life, will never leave her and flee for his life. At critical moments, although he does not have any martial arts, he is always calm and reassuring. She suddenly felt her body tightly encircled by two arms, and the fragrance of herbs instantly hit her arms.
She opened her eyes suddenly, and felt Zuo Sheng's deep voice in her ears:
"Ah Shi, hold your breath."
“…… Ahh
Ye Shi's round eyes widened, and the softness between her lips made her head blank. At the moment of life and death, she didn't have any other thoughts, but thought blankly, it turned out that his eyelashes were so long and drooping in arc...... It's unexpectedly good-looking.
"Knock knock" The two were extremely close, and the other party's crazy beating heart could be clearly heard.
Jian Ji floated and cried miserably, only more than ten inches away from the two. The heat between their lips continued unabated, and their brains were a little dizzy, and no one noticed that the spell had quietly disappeared into the air.
A withered hand shrouded in black gas stretched out to Zuo Sheng, and the screams and laughter of the dream suddenly sounded in his ears again. Suddenly, as if she had seen something, Kenhime retracted her hand like lightning and quickly retreated outward.
After another half-hour, all sounds seemed to have died down. The whole space fell silent.
"Hmm......" Ye Shi stared at the face that was close at hand, and suddenly bounced away, coughing while adjusting his breathing:
"Ahem, I thought I was here today...... Thank you. Zuo Sheng just walked away from the ghost gate, and he didn't shake his senses, but he pursed his lips in a daze, and the roots of his ears flushed with an abnormal flush. Ye Shi saw it, her face burned suddenly, she stood up against the wall, and just took a step forward, she stumbled.
Zuo Sheng quickly supported her, squatted down to check the injury of her foot, and frowned:
"I ran too fast just now, and the blood was clogged on the surface of the skin, and I couldn't walk anymore."
"Alas, it's okay, I've suffered ten times worse than this, and I can ...... it"
"If you don't want to lose this leg, listen to me." Zuo Sheng quickly interrupted her, a hint of undoubted flashing in his eyes. Ye Shi was stunned: She has never seen such a strong side of him outside of solving the case. She blinked and said:
"What are you going to do?" As soon as the words fell, her body suddenly hung in the air, her center of gravity was unstable, and she clung to his neck with an exclamation and didn't let go, like an extremely sticky octopus, hanging on Zuo Sheng's body.
"You take it easy...... I'm about to be strangled to death by you......" Zuo Sheng's neck was tense, and he said breathlessly.
"Ah...... Sorry. Ye Shi suddenly woke up, and his posture stiffly hugged his neck. Zuo Sheng sighed and shook his head helplessly.
"Do you want to say I'm not a woman again?"
“…… No, I don't. ”
"Hmph. My aunt and grandmother are as strong as an ox, and with a top ten, other men don't dare to approach, let alone hug them...... Where did I get any experience. ”
"Poof." Zuo Sheng couldn't hold back and laughed,
"Is there a girl who praises herself like that?"
"Yes! Where is it not ...... You still say! You just don't think I'm a girl! Ye Shi was so angry that he pinched Zuo Sheng's face, and the latter sighed:
"Good, good! My aunt, my fault, it's all my fault, I don't dare anymore......"
Ye Shi stopped his movements and looked up at Zuo Sheng:
"Then you won't say that I wear men's clothes in the future?"
"Don't say it, don't say it."
"Do you still say that I'm not a woman?"
"Don't dare, don't dare."
"That's pretty much it." Ye Shi was satisfied, humming a little song happily, the corners of Zuo Sheng's mouth hooked an arc, and he thought: Some women in this world are as sweet as honey, and some are as gentle as water, but none of them are like you.
Qing is like a flowing glow, I want to be drunk for a long time and don't want to wake up.
……
"Has the Ancient Divine Beast been found?"
"Returning to the Honor...... Not yet. ”
"Zero, do your own calculations, how long has it been? The Shenzhou Continent is so big, can this divine beast still fly away with wings? I will give you seven more days, and if you can't find it again, bring it to you." ”
"Yes!"
"Yo, why are you so angry?" Dye came out of nowhere, raised an eyebrow.
"If I'm not mistaken, the three pieces of remnants that the group are looking for are almost there. Once the remnants merge, the spiritual power of the divine consciousness within it is immeasurable. And the divine beast I am looking for has an oracle on its body, and its residual spiritual power can achieve the unity of the four races. Only by finding it can we get a head start. Wu Ming's eyes flashed with a hint of fierceness, and he said lightly.
"I heard that a few days ago, the black spell failed on a yellow-haired girl? My all-powerful nameless adult, and one day missing? Dye crossed Erlang's legs and asked slowly.
"Hmph, that girl is just a mediocre person, and she actually has a protective seal given by an ancient divine beast on her body, and black spells can't control her at all."
"Oh? It's so interesting, I need ......."
"No need, just leave this matter to me. You'd better save your strength to collect the wraiths. Yesterday, the hundred ghosts walked at night on the Shangyuan Festival, and was bumped into by a little doll, and Qiao Ji actually let him run away. I guess it's a little bit of a fire for this spell. ”
"Don't worry." Dye slowly hooked his lips, and there was a hint of danger in his voice.
……
WindClan, forbidden land.
"Hold on to !!" Beigong Han pulled a section of emerald green vines and looked at Shen Wan who was gradually going deeper into the waterhole.
With a "bang", the water splashed, and a blue-black dragon roared angrily and jumped out of the water. Shen Wan jumped up and sat firmly on the green elf. A hand poked into the void, and the fire thorn instantly took shape. She let out a low cry and threw it at the dragon.
With a "bang", the fire thorn inserted into the dragon's skin suddenly dissipated, and a little fiery red spiritual power floated in the air. Shen Wan gritted her teeth, chanted a spell and gathered several fireballs in front of her, and flew towards the head, middle, and tail of the dragon with lightning speed.
"Han, hurry!" Shen Wan yelled.
As soon as the words fell, the ring in his hand burst out with a dazzling red light, and the two of them disappeared in place with a "swoop" and entered the bottom of the deep pool.
The bottom of the pool is very dark, and you can't see your fingers. The Green Elf followed the two of them, lighting the way ahead for them.
The dazzling green light dissipated, revealing a semicircular jade platform on which a jet-black irregular object floated in the air.
Shen Wan's eyes lit up and rushed over:
"Hah, finally found it! Sure enough, it's here. Green, go, take it down. "Water overcomes fire, and fire cannot be used at the bottom of the pool, so Shen Wan's behavior has been restricted. The green glow softly enveloped the remnants and placed them in her hands.
Suddenly, the bottom of the whole pond began to make a "rumbling" sound. Beigong Han copied Shen Wan into his arms and said quickly:
"This remnant is the mechanism that guards the forbidden place, and we seem to have turned it on."
The two finally swam ashore, and the dragon who was temporarily stunned by Shen Wan with fire suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were red, and he rushed towards the two of them frantically.
"Girl! Be careful!!! ”
