43. The rain keeps falling (second shift)
Sword Mountain Castle.
Autumn rain, blue rain.
In the streets and alleys, water suddenly accumulated, and a man fell straight on his back, some smiling strangely, others struggling in pain.
These people drifted along the water, heading in the direction of Guiyun Lake.
If you look at it from a higher vantage point, you can see that Guiyun Lake has become a large whirlpool, rolling the wind and clouds in the sky, dragging the people on the ground to flow down the water and towards the lake.
The water corpses, dressed in bright clothes and disguised as residents, hurried down the streets, under the eaves where the rain could not fall, and... Persuade those who are sheltered from the rain to go into the rain.
But the water corpse does not forcibly pull people, apparently... Just like the previous giants, they are wastes when they reach the ground.
But...
The rain is getting heavier and heavier, like a shower in the middle of summer.
The humidity in the air is getting louder and heavier.
The water is getting deeper.
The water corpses are invulnerable to knives and guns in the water, and the characteristics of copper heads and iron arms, and a strange force are also awakening.
Finally, in the noodle shop, the strange guest suddenly dragged the boss below and ran out.
The boss was already looking at the stray corpse outside the window in horror, but at this time he was pulled violently and suddenly screamed in horror.
There were also a few guests who came to help.
But the strange guest was extremely powerful, dragging the boss and running into the rain.
Soon, the boss was drenched in the rain, and he screamed and struggled, but the strange guest just pressed him...
The boss is still struggling to get back to shelter from the rain, but the strange guest has too much power.
After a while, the boss was already wet, he stopped struggling, and with a happy and weird smile on his face, he fell back and joined the drifting army along the supernatural stagnant water.
This scene happened in many places.
But soon, the whole city reacted.
"Don't touch that rain! Shelter from the rain, shelter from the rain!! ”
"There are water ghosts pretending to be people, everyone be careful."
In front of the inn, a young man with a water ghost took aim at the old man who was closing the stall.
The young man of the water ghost was immersed in the water, and suddenly threw himself at the old man.
The old man screamed in fright, collapsed to the ground, and the objects in his hands were scattered all over the place, seeing that the water ghost was about to grab the old man's legs, but saw a fire rippling in the distance.
The blazing temperature, the piercing brightness, made the water ghost scream and retreat again and again.
In the door of the inn, a young Taoist priest in a black and white robe walked out, this Taoist priest is called Wang Ran, who is a rising star in Wudang, and even some are regarded as the posture of being cultivated by the head of the house.
The Tao is natural, so the word "ran" is in line with the Tao.
Wang Ran's expression was calm, he waved his sword and stood diagonally, holding a torch in his left hand.
He observed the water spirit, and the blue rain, and suddenly shook the torch again.
The water ghost in the rain was so frightened that he fell backwards again and again.
Wang Ran laughed, then let out a long howl, and said: "The water ghost is afraid of fire, everyone light the fire!! ”
And when the voice came out, and it had to be tested, it spread more and more.
And this method was not only discovered by the Wudang family, and it soon formed a scale.
If it was normal times, Jianshan City was attacked like this, I am afraid that it would not have suffered immediately.
But because of the bloody battle, people from all sides, whether they are righteous or evil, all gathered here for a while...... The rain and the water spirits disguised as humans were blocked.
...
...
However, the rain was still falling, and there was no sign of stopping.
The water on the ground is getting thicker.
The Tang family screamed and screamed, and the chaos was incomparable.
"Don't save people! Don't save people! Can't be saved!! Zhu Bafan shouted in the pavilion.
And on the ground of your Excellency, there are many bodies of maids and maids floating in the courtyard.
Those maids and maids in the nursing home have smiles or struggles on their faces.
In the stagnant water, there is a blue light.
"Don't get caught in that blue rain!!"
"Take the torch!"
"Ignition, ignition!" Many nursing homes are also shouting.
It was noisy everywhere, and water droplets fell wildly.
Tang Huang, the head of the Tang family, was beside Zhu Bafan, looking at this scene in amazement.
Suddenly, Tang Huang remembered the second king before.
He realized that Wang Er's death was just the beginning, just a sign... And in the follow-up, many strange things happened one after another by Guiyun Lake, which is also the development of things.
And now... It ushered in an outbreak.
......
Inner Courtyard.
Tang Xianzhi and Little Lingque were in a big mansion, looking out of the house in a daze.
After Tang Xianzhi took Zhu Bafan to find his father, he found the little sparrow.
The two of them are newly sisters, and they are both in contact with Bai Yan, so they are talking about tomorrow's bloody battle, but they don't want the rain to fall suddenly.
Inside the house, it's dark...
On the ground outside the house, human bodies floated from time to time.
The two daughters, as well as the maid in the house, were a little trembling.
Fortunately, Tang Xianzhi heard the shouts outside, and immediately asked the maids to light all the candles in the house, and then began to gather the fire oil again.
Boom... Boom... Boom...
There was a heavy thumping outside the door.
The little spirit finch was bold, leaned over to take a look, and was so frightened that his soul flew away, and shouted, "Ah!! There's a water ghost demolishing the house!! ”
Tang Xianzhi led a group of maids to take a look, and sure enough, he saw a swollen water corpse smashing the house violently in the rain.
With this knock, the walls of the house are rapidly breaking apart.
The planks were broken and shattered, a large hole appeared in the wall, and the cold wind blew in the blue raindrops, and the cold wind blew out the candles near the wall.
The maids next to them clenched their fists in fear and screamed loudly.
Tang Xianzhi was terrified in his heart, but he also quickly observed, and suddenly... She immediately decided: "Dismantle the tables and chairs, light the torch!" Water ghosts are afraid of fire, so let's use fire to drive them away!! ”
Her shout immediately gave the maids a backbone.
The little sparrow rushed out with a "hey", dismantled two tables and six chairs in a rage, then poured oil into the iron basin, lit the fire, and began to make torches.
Not allong...
The torches are ready.
Tang Xianzhi wanted to demonstrate first, but the little sparrow took a step forward, grabbed a torch, and danced to the water ghosts who were demolishing the house outside.
The water ghost was really afraid of fire, and was burned by the flames in front of him, and retreated again and again.
Only then did the maids muster up their courage, pick up the torches, and do the same, and stand by the windows on all sides, waving the torches outward.
The shaking of the house subsided slightly.
...
...
However, the rain is still falling, and it is getting heavier and heavier.
The stagnant water that had just reached the middle of the stone had now submerged the stone.
The water level is rising at a rapid pace...
Suddenly, a humanoid silhouette appeared in the rain curtain outside the door, which was still in the distance, but instantly came to the eaves.
The maids were so frightened that they waved their torches.
But the little sparrow saw the person coming clearly, and shouted: "Don't dance, don't dance, it's my father-in-law." ”
The maidens stopped.
The person who came was Bai Yan.
He was practicing in an open field, but suddenly encountered heavy rain.
Soon, he sensed that something was wrong, and after making a round, he found that the situation was getting worse and worse, so he thought of coming to find his wife and eldest sister.
Although the rain was terrifying, it was directly separated by him with a True Qi Qi Hood, and it did not wet him in the slightest.
"Are you alright?"
When Bai Yan saw the two girls, his expression softened.
"Yan Yan, we're fine, that water ghost is nothing more than that... Hum! "The little sparrow is actually very cowardly in his heart, but after scaring away the water ghosts with torches, this guts has become fat again.
Bai Yan smiled: "It's okay if you're fine." ”
The little sparrow looked at him and smiled, and his heart was warm.
Tang Xianzhi breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had found someone to rely on, and thus felt relaxed mentally...
"Brother-in-law, what should we do?" The eldest sister came over and asked.
Bai Yan said: "It's getting worse and worse outside... We must evacuate from the Don family. ”
"Evacuate... Why? The eldest sister showed surprise on her face.
Bai Yan said: "The lake is overflowing, and the water... I've seen countless... Kelpie. If this rain rains for two more incense sticks, our Tang family will be the first to be submerged, and when the time comes, the water ghosts will come with the flood and form a ghost tide...
In the ghost tide, even if you hold a torch, it's useless. ”
He suddenly remembered the Qian Qing of the Dao Mansion before.
Qian Qing said that this is a kind of ghost with a ghost tide...
But the conditions for the appearance of ghosts are also very harsh.
Their appearance requires enough ghost servants, and the more ghost servants there are, the greater their presence.
When the ghost servant reaches a certain level, the ghost will really appear.
And if the ghost servant is gone, the ghost cannot appear.
But... Bai Yan only now understands that the money is wrong.
Because the water ghost, as long as it appears, it is enough, even if it dies later, it will not affect the arrival of the ghost.
And now... Ghosts, are emerging!
