Chapter Fifty-Nine: A Sharp Turn
Exercise.
Xia Fan's heart sank to the bottom.
At first glance, it looks like a half-crouched kangaroo, wide at the bottom and narrow at the top, with a huge bag on its belly. But the head showed that it wasn't good—it had several faces, as if someone had deliberately sewn multiple bloody faces together, and they all had different expressions, from screams of pain to angry eyes. And from the faintly visible eyebrows, eyes, lips and nose, it can be seen that these facial skins are from women.
A hooded rag robe hid the rest of the details of the uninvited guest, and it wasn't until it stretched out its arm that Xia Fan noticed that there were no five fingers on it, but rather a sharp bone sickle that had been brought together.
It's as simple as raising your arms and swinging them down.
Zhang Shenju, who was standing in the front row, flew up silently.
The pumped blood formed a thin fountain, and the familiar smell of rust poured into Xia Fan's nostrils.
It was only at this time that the leader's body slowly went limp.
That's how he ...... He's dead?
Huge danger signals were frantically honking in his mind, but no matter how much Xia Fan struggled, his body didn't move.
The monster slowly took two steps forward and raised its hand towards Yue Feng.
At this moment, there was a crisp sound of "bang" behind the living beings, and a bronze candlestick suddenly fell to the ground, and the two candles on it were thrown out and rolled towards the doorway.
The change in the light of the fire caused the shadows to disperse as well.
Almost at the same moment, Xia Fan felt that he had regained control of his body!
Even because of the excessive force, he almost fell out on his back.
The others also moved, and the hall was filled with a jumble of shouting.
"And a ghost!"
"Go to the fire!"
"Don't step on the shadows under your feet!"
In a split second, everyone reacted - this thing can imprison living things through darkness!
The fallen candle was extinguished.
The monster did not chase after the scattered crowd, but moved straight towards the center of the hall. When it leaned down, picked up the remains of the Yuan Ghost, and slowly put it into the skin pouch on its abdomen, Xia Fan had an extremely ominous premonition in his heart.
Then it threw up its head and roared, a very shrill female voice, pitched so high that it seemed to puncture its eardrums!
And the others didn't sit still.
Yue Feng took the lead in launching a counterattack - I saw him holding several talismans in each hand, and threw them at the female ghost in turn. The runes flew halfway through and turned into a rapid air current, shooting straight at the target like an arrow from a string.
Shangguan Cai followed, but she used not a magic technique, but a golden and iron weapon. For the first time, Xia Fan saw her pull out the two short sticks on her waist, spin them together and combine them into a long spear, and fly towards the monster, her moves are also the most rigid and fierce methods, and the attack is as impenetrable as a storm.
The female ghost quickly retreated while blocking the attack with two long scythe-like arms.
The two of them had no effect, Yue Feng's long-range shot had opened several gaps in it, and Shangguan Cai's spear had shattered the corners of the bone sickle.
Seeing that the two of them were about to succeed, the female ghost had already stepped into the darkness, and the huge figure suddenly disappeared in front of everyone's eyes, as if it were just an illusion.
"It ran away?"
"No, look at the back!" Xia Fan reminded abruptly.
Due to the perspective relationship, he happened to notice that the shadow behind Luo Youer had changed, and the originally empty darkness was like a tulle bulging - it was the monster's robe swinging open!
It burst out of the darkness and slashed at Loyoer, who could only dodge the fatal blow, but could not dodge the next sweep.
The monster slapped its hand and knocked the little girl away—
"Luo Youer!"
"Miss Yooer!"
Wei Wushuang and Wang Renzhi both wanted to rush over to save people, but they were stopped by Yue Feng's roar.
"Are you going to die in the shadows?
It was probably this roar that caught the attention of the female ghost, and it turned its head and pounced on Yue Feng in the same way, and Yue Feng only drew his wooden sword at this time, blocking the opponent's attack on the spot.
"Hmph, it's not that easy to kill me!" his forehead was bruised, and the muscles of his arms bulged into a small mountain, and under the competition of pure strength, he actually pushed the pair of bone sickles back little by little.
Xia Fan had also taken out a "copper wire pendant", ready to take this opportunity to give the monster a fatal blow.
However, something unexpected happened, and I saw that the pocket of the female ghost's abdomen suddenly opened, and the abyss ghost who should have been eliminated poked his head out again.
The hearts of the people who witnessed this scene suddenly became cold.
Yue Feng was even more so, he wanted to retreat in a panic, but the two arms of the Yuan Ghost had already rushed out and clasped out of his wrists.
Without giving anyone time to react, half of his body was quickly dragged into the bag—a skin bag that, though wide enough, was not deep enough to hold the next adult male. Half of it was later, blood burst out of the mouth of the bag, staining the female ghost's chest red, and at the same time, there was the crackling sound of broken bones, and the screams of her peers!
Wang Renzhi was obviously frightened by this scene, he wanted to stay away from the evil with a pale face, but he didn't run a few steps and tripped himself to the ground, fell heavily in front of Xia Fan, and even a shoe flew out.
Not only that, but he also dragged down the candlestick beside Xia Fan.
The firelight suddenly dimmed a lot, and part of the enlarged shadow happened to envelop one of Wang Renzhi's hands.
He tried to get up in horror, but found that his body could not move!
And the shoe that fell in front of him has become a new container.
Wang Renzhi clearly saw that a face without a nose was poking out of it little by little.
He turned his prayerful gaze to Xia Fan.
Xia Fan knew in his heart that if he didn't do anything at this time, no one would ever blame Wang Renzhi's death on him afterwards - in this case, it would be difficult to even protect himself, so where could he take care of others?
What's more, this guy's mouth is quite annoying.
Merely...... The personality is poor, and the other party is far from damning.
Xia Fan didn't hesitate too much, flew up and grabbed his waist, kicking him out of the dark area. At the same time, he also rolled to the side, quickly widening the distance between himself and his shoes.
Sure enough, the next second, the female ghosts appeared where they had been, as if there was no distance between the two walls of the room. If it weren't for the quick withdrawal, Xia Fan would inevitably follow in the footsteps of the victims.
Everyone's complexion was unusually ugly. An unrestricted abyss ghost is difficult enough to deal with, not to mention an unknown pocket female ghost, and the two don't seem to be mutually exclusive, which is even worse for a team that has already lost two.
To make matters worse, their range of movement was confined to a ten-foot square area in the center of the hall, and the shadows that swayed around them were like a dangerous moat, and if they stepped on it, they could be wiped out. Coupled with the fact that if the candlestick is poured, there will be one less, and sooner or later this temporarily safe place will be swallowed up by darkness.
They have to do it as soon as possible!
