Chapter 38: The Soul Knife
On the way downstairs, another girl asked with a crying voice,
"Where are we going? I want to go home......"
No one answered her, only the helpless and frightened mood that spread rapidly among the students.
The group walked straight out of the Three Teaching Buildings, and the signal displayed on the Forbidden Ring was getting closer and closer.
Then, on the way back to the first school building, the two signals finally converged.
Far away, Jiang Yao saw a tall and thin figure, hurrying from the red mist.
Those survivors didn't know why, and vaguely saw a figure in the red mist, and they were still nervous.
It wasn't until I got closer that I saw that it was a middle-aged man in his thirties, a spotless white suit, and his oily parted head was also meticulously cared for.
Except for the black bracelet on his left wrist, which looked a little nondescript, his whole person looked like he was full of elites.
If you usually meet him on campus, I am afraid that anyone will have to say 'good teacher' to him.
"Are you Chen Yuqing?"
The man in the suit walked up to the front and showed his ID directly, "I am a frontal member of the knife bearer in Weihai City, Wei Ming." ”
"Soul Knife, Wei Ming?" Chen Yuqing had obviously heard of the other party's name and was a little surprised.
"I've also heard of you, the eight-armed goddess, Chen Yuqing, the most favored little daughter of Chen's Heavy Industries."
"How did you end up here?"
"Something happened to the lighthouse in Weihai City, I found traces of the activities of the ghost tribes, and I tracked it all the way to your Nanjin City."
Wei Ming put away his documents and continued,
"I was going to inform you of the clues of the ghost tribes, but it happened that a strange incident happened to happen in the attached middle school, so he asked me to come in and catch someone......"
"Who?"
Wei Ming didn't answer, his gaze directly crossed Chen Yuqing, glanced at the survivors behind her, and finally fell on Jiang Yao.
Chen Yuqing followed and looked, and suddenly understood in his mind
"I'm afraid he won't go with you."
Wei Ming stepped forward and walked up to Jiang Yao,
"I'll take you out......"
"Maybe you should listen to her." Jiang Yao didn't appreciate it, his blood-red eyes met Shang Weiming's eyes, and he said indifferently, "I still have something to solve." ”
"His sister was taken away by the [Gu Snake Fetus]." Chen Yuqing helped explain, "If he didn't find his sister, it would be impossible for him to leave." ”
Wei Ming looked at Jiang Yao's state,
"Your priest is about to recover, come with me, you can live, and no one can save you if you stay."
Jiang Yao did not answer his words, but said thoughtfully,
"Can you break through this ghost snake and come in, you should also be able to break through the ghost snake and find the body of the [Gu Snake Fetus]?"
"This school is not as simple as you think, otherwise the Thunder Team would have come in early, where would they still need to ask me."
"What do you mean?"
Wei Ming swept his eyes at the red mist around him,
"This is not the ghost of the [Gu Snake Fetus] at all, but two different ghost snakes that have coincided together."
Jiang Yao heard this,
Reflexively looked in the direction of the green field.
Wei Ming also followed,
"It seems that you have realized that the place we are in now should be the ghost of that thing."
"Outside this layer of ghost snakes, there is also a layer of ghosts, and that is the ghost snake of the [Gu Snake Fetus]."
"Two layers of ghosts...... How is this possible......"
When Chen Yuqing on the side heard this, a touch of disbelief immediately appeared in his eyes.
"A layer of ghost is a weird ......"
"Two-story ghost, isn't that ......"
"That's right."
Wei Ming completed what she didn't say,
"There are two weird ones in this school."
"One of them is known to be a [Gu Snake Fetus], and the strange sequence is determined to be a white ray."
"The other one is unknown, but the aura it exudes is still above the [Gu Snake Fetus], and my preliminary assessment is that its strange sequence is at least the Red Thorn level."
Through Chen Yuqing's previous introduction of the strange sequence, Jiang Yao already knew that there were four levels: white, blue, black, and red, and red meant that the danger level of the same realm was the highest.
According to his current strength, the gate realm of the four realms of Gate, Lu, Mang, and Xinjiang is estimated to be enough to choke on the weakest white ray, and if it is against the red ray, it can basically be said that there is no chance of winning.
However, Wei Ming's next sentence made his heart sink even more,
"When I came, I noticed the weird one on the green field, it is still just a cocoon, and the aura it emits is far beyond the [Gu Snake Fetus]......"
"When it hatches completely, it will only be more terrifying, and then maybe even I won't be able to quit anymore."
"So, do you still insist on staying to save your sister?"
Wei Ming finished saying everything that needed to be said, and the choice was thrown back to Jiang Yao, just like the last time Lei Ze asked Jiang Yao to choose whether to join the knife bearer.
From Wei Ming's words, Jiang Yao had already learned a lot of news, such as the ability that Wei Ming's heavenly official brought to him may be related to the ghost snake, so he was able to break through the two layers of ghost snake and come here.
For example, Wei Ming identified himself as soon as they met, and pointed out that his 'divine officer' was about to recover, so it can be concluded that Lei Ze must have informed him of the news that he was the Chosen One, and perhaps this is also the reason why he agreed to come in and fish for himself.
Then there was the dark red cocoon on the green field, and Jiang Yao guessed that its revival was probably related to the piece of treacherous jade he had inadvertently brought......
"My time is almost up,"
Seeing that Jiang Yao had not replied for a long time, Wei Ming raised his right wrist and glanced at his watch,
"Have you decided?"
Jiang Yao raised his head and met Wei Ming's eyes.
"Sorry......
I couldn't do it and leave my sister and run away. ”
"I see."
Wei Ming finally glanced at his watch and put his hand in the trouser pocket of his suit.
"Good luck."
With that, he turned around and was about to leave.
Just took two steps but was suddenly stopped by Jiang Yao,
"Wait a minute!"
Wei Ming stopped and looked back in confusion.
Jiang Yao gestured,
"Anyway, you're all in to get people, so take them out by the way."
Wei Ming heard this,
His eyes swept over the group of survivors who were trembling and expectant.
Then said to Jiang Yao,
"I'm sorry too,"
"My ability is limited and I can only take one person."
"If this place has to be filled, I can bring her...... But do you think she'll come with me? ”
Wei Ming looked at Chen Yuqing as he spoke.
Jiang Yao also followed.
Then I saw Chen Yuqing shaking her head firmly,
"I also have a reason to stay."
Wei Ming shrugged his shoulders at Chen Yuqing's answer, obviously he had expected this result.
On the contrary, Jiang Yao couldn't figure it out,
Wei Ming's choice to take Chen Yuqing is very understandable, if he can only take one person out, except for Jiang Yao, then Chen Yuqing is the most 'valuable' person here, and it is understandable for him to make this choice.
But why did Chen Yuqing refuse? Jiang Yao stayed because Jiang Wanwan hadn't been found yet, and what was Chen Yuqing's 'reason why he had to stay'?
Intentionally or not, Jiang Yao felt that after Chen Yuqing finished saying this, he quietly glanced at himself......
"Okay, since you've all decided to stay."
"Then I won't accompany you."
Wei Ming made a goodbye gesture and turned to leave.
But as soon as he turned around, Jiang Yao spoke again......
"Wait!"
Wei Ming stopped again,
A hint of displeasure already rose between his eyebrows,
"You'd better give me a satisfactory explanation."
As he spoke, he pulled out his hand and looked at his watch,
Raise your eyes again,
An invisible sense of oppression rushed out like a wave.
"Otherwise, I'll let you know what the consequences are."
"Can you take me out of this ghostly layer?"
Jiang Yao was not afraid of the oppression released by Wei Ming,
Go up the first two steps,
"I want to enter the ghost of the [Gu Snake Fetus]."
