Chapter 1033: Death
However, I may have had some luck today.
Just as we were discussing in a whisper, the pile of corpses in front of us began to move one by one, especially the girl who "found" me first, I don't know when she had struggled out of the crowd, and was limping at the moment, dragging her rotten legs full of maggots towards us.
“...... Hehe, it's also a sin to be too handsome. ”
The corners of my mouth twitched, my face turned pale, and I could barely spit out a few words to comfort myself. Chen Ming, who was standing beside me, didn't have such a good attitude, and pulled out the long sword behind his back and asked me to retreat in first, "Let's go back, at least it's safer than here." ”
I was noncommittal to his proposal, there were dead ends on both sides, and the dump was already the most likely place to find an exit in our guesses.
But in the face of thousands of living dead people in front of me, I admit that I was cowardly.
So I grabbed Chen Ming's collar and pulled the person into the passage, "Don't be stupid, you can still cut so many people when you are crippled!"
In the passage that could only accommodate one person, Chen Ming and I used our strength to feed one after the other, and even the pain of the fracture was temporarily blocked by me.
"You...... Have you ever wondered why those things were lying so well before we came, and how they moved in the blink of an eye?"
Chen Ming asked panting after me. To be honest, I've thought about it too, but I'm not so sure, "Maybe it's the yang energy in our body?"
To put it bluntly, these people have already died, but unfortunately the imitation jade pendant itself is flawed, and they have a deal with the demon, so the soul cannot be completely separated from the exorcism after the physical body loses its vitality.
What remains is this part of the soul that remains as unconscious fragments, and the living are inherently attracted to the ghosts, which is why they are driven to attack us.
If Fang just slowed down a beat, he might be eaten alive.
After that, a thin layer of cold sweat appeared on Chen Ming's face, and he said several swear words in a row. I wasn't much better, the muscles on my tense face were jumping, and in a trance I could still hear the footsteps of the living dead chasing after me.
"How long have we been gone?"
The pain and the constant tension of my nerves made me involuntarily deviate from my control of time. The narrow passage was lined with identical bricks on both sides, and for a moment I even felt like I was trapped in a fantasy.
Chen Ming was silent for a long time, and when I was about to forget about it, he smiled bitterly in a low voice, "Hehe, I don't know either...... Zhang Yan, do you think we'll end here?"
His words made my heart skip a beat.
Cultivators don't really pay much attention to life and death. Yin and yang are balanced, the cycle of life and death, and the six reincarnations are determined by heaven.
After all, we are mortals, but we are lucky, and when we were born, we had some special powers that were different from ordinary people.
When I actually set foot on this road, I imagined countless times in my midnight dreams that the day my limit would come, all kinds of scenes, all kinds of places.
Different times, different events. The only thing that remains unchanged is that I always keep my calm heart.
Because I have always believed that fate is determined by heaven, and the cycle of cause and effect has its own retribution. But today, when there is no way out, I don't want to die at all.
The ** of survival forced me to forget the pain in my arms and calves, and I kept running towards the end of the line like crazy......
“...... We're not going to die, it's not that simple for Hades to want my life. Don't go down so early to be a temporary worker for him!"
I grinned, dispelling the fear that had just taken over my mind.
"Follow me, and we'll have a real version of death escape in a moment!"
I looked back and winked at the stunned Chen Ming, the kid looked at me stupidly and forgot to walk, and I slapped my head before I reacted, and laughed.
It looks familiar, and we used to be so carefree when we were younger......
As time went on, there wasn't a single part of my body that didn't feel sore, but no matter what, I still tried to keep my pace on my feet.
At this point, I really want to be glad that the passage is narrow, because it is narrow enough for me to prop up the wall with one hand and one leg on the other, and move like a crab.
In this way, in fact, God treats me well, if the injuries are all on the same side, then it is really bitter.
"It's almost there!"
Just when I was thinking wildly, Chen Ming behind me suppressed his voice and screamed happily, and when I raised my eyes, I also saw a somewhat dazzling white light.
Unlike his excitement, I had some faint worries.
Although the evil spirit I encountered before was repelled by me, it was only injured, and who knows if it will attack us again.
"If an evil spirit appears......"
I opened my mouth to make a plan first, but God seemed to see me live, and as I spoke, an extremely thick yin aura mixed with an eerie aura of death swept from ahead.
Chen Ming and I were both startled, and reflexively stopped.
"Roar!!"
The roar from the evil spirit came from the end of the passage, and I couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Now, what to do?"
Chen Ming's voice trembled a little when he spoke. In most movies, the protagonist encounters this situation, and most of them will explode into a new skill, or a divine weapon from the sky.
However, I was clearly not the protagonist of the hanging.
The two cripples were besieged in the middle, hehe, except for sitting down and waiting for death, and silently praying for reincarnation in the next life to be reincarnated into a good family, I really don't know what to do.
“...... Do you want to give up your flesh?"
I came down from the wall and stood on one leg in the passageway, the disgusting stench of rancid nature behind me far away, and I believe it would not be long before I saw the first living dead.
"You still have the heart to joke," Chen Ming propped his forehead and forcibly exchanged places with me against the wall, "I run fast, you follow me for a while, and I will block the evil spirit." ”
I didn't have as much strength as him, so I was pulled directly behind by him, "You save it, block a fart, it's you who faint first." The aura of the evil spirit is a little chaotic, it should be the one I was injured just now, it is more persistent with me, since it was hit hard by me, it will naturally not let me go. ”
"It's better for you to run for your life, even if I die, I can leave as a living soul, you don't have to worry. If I expected it to be good, the intricate pattern on the stone door we knocked down at the beginning should be some kind of formation that can imprison the soul, otherwise there are so many unclean things left in this underground would have gone up a long time ago. ”
"You just have to block the door after you leave, and there will be no danger......"
I didn't care what Chen Ming's reaction was, and I said a big push in one breath, and at this time, the evil spirit in front had already revealed its head, and the living dead in the back gradually followed.
The two of us are simply capable of interpreting what a layer cake is.
"I don't ......"
Chen Ming's eyebrows were tightly wrinkled, but before he could object, the evil spirit in front of him had already rushed up, and the pitch-black soul body exuded endless resentment, and the slightest proximity could make people chill all over the body.
I took the lead in drawing the short knife and crossed Chen Ming's shoulder to block a blow, and the Diamond Sutra engraved on the peachwood sword emitted a faint golden light, forcing back the evil spirit, and I quickly pushed Chen Ming forward.
This kid was brought back to his senses by me, and after reacting to it, an arm went through my armpit, and he carried me up without saying hello.
Although the wrong posture caused my back and hip bones to rub against the bricks and tiles, and as Chen Ming's footsteps rubbed all the way forward, my skin was already hot and painful, but at this time, I subconsciously blocked these pains, and all my thoughts were on the evil spirit that I didn't know where to hide, and the living dead girl who was only ten meters away from us behind me.
"My peachwood sword can be used up to three times, and the Diamond Sutra on it can't last long without my spell blessing. ”
I leaned forward as much as I could, leaving room for my arms to swing, and whispered in Chen Ming's ear.
He nodded, holding my arm tightly, obviously nervous as well.
"Whew!"
The moment the sound of breaking wind came, I had already waved my hand back, but I didn't control the angle well, causing the peachwood sword in my hand to get stuck in the gap in the wall next to me, and I couldn't pull it out for a while.
Before Chen Ming could find out, his footsteps were still the same, causing me to slip off him and fall heavily on the ground as soon as I pulled and pulled.
None of this was my primary concern, and the magnified rotten face in front of me made my breath falter.
The girl with most of her face staring at me with blank eyes, and I could see the worms that were constantly shuttling on the carrion.
And behind it, there was a long line of living dead, blocked by the narrow passage, and could not step forward.
"Zhang Yan!!"
Chen Ming roared, and when the girl was about to bite me in the face, he slashed his sword and split his face in two, narrowly saving me.
"How are you alright?" Chen Ming stepped backwards with a kick of the female corpse that was still struggling, blocking the team of living dead who were rushing forward in excitement.
“...... It's fine, I just want to wash my face. ”
Holding back the ** that I wanted to vomit, I wiped my face, slapped off the carrion and maggots that had just fallen on my face, and climbed up Chen Ming's back as fast as I could.
As soon as the two of us walked away, the female corpse that was spinning around in place was slapped away by the corpse that followed closely behind it, and one after another ran forward like a small train, with a sense of déjà vu against zombies.
Before I could recover my breath, the evil spirit reappeared, and this time it slapped Chen Ming directly on the back of the head, throwing him into the pile of the living dead behind.
Suddenly, those things turned around to grab Chen Ming, and a long line of corpses all blocked around Chen Ming, completely submerging his figure.
I was dizzy again, and I didn't bother to look at Chen Ming's situation, so I was trampled on my leg by the evil spirit, and it happened to be my broken calf bone.
In an instant, it was dark in front of me, and I almost fainted.
The demon looked excited, hissing incessantly, and then conjured up a hand and slammed it at my chest.
"Ahhh
Blood splattered all over the ground, a large piece of flesh was grabbed by the evil spirit, and a piercing chewing sound was heard in my ears.
I was confused, my hands and feet twitching unconsciously.
...... Going to die, are you?
