Chapter 44: The Door Is Closed

The tears I had just stopped were about to burst again.

But I didn't want to cry in front of him, he didn't need sympathy, although I knew that my tears were more than sympathy.

I looked up, my eyes wide open, trying to push the tears back.

But the moment I looked up, I saw something flashing back and forth in my sight on the roof of the room, where the dried corpse had been hung before!

"There's something up there!" I screamed, jumped to Han Jiuchen's side, grabbed his arm, pointed to the gap where the corpse was hanging before, and said, "Something is flashing!" ”

Han Jiuchen took two steps forward and stood under the gap, raised his head, raised his heart lamp and observed for a while, and said, "Put some more dried corpses down!" ”

Before he finished speaking, Han Jiuchen brushed a few times like before, cutting the rope hanging from the dried corpse, revealing a larger gap on the roof of the room.

Han Jiuchen held up the heart lamp, and through the light, we saw that on every rope hanging the dried corpse, there was something that looked like a copper bell.

"What's that? It looks like a copper bell, but if it's a copper bell, when you took off the dried corpse before, the rope swayed so badly, there is no reason why there is no bell! ”

"Take it down and see."

I pursed my lips and complained to myself that it was light, but now we don't even have a place to borrow, how can we climb to the top and get that thing? Could it be that he can really carry a treasure chest like the blue fat man and take out a telescopic folding ladder from his pocket?

Han Jiuchen walked around several times with his head up, as if he was thinking about how to start.

Then he flew up to the top and tinkered for a while before he got back to the ground, and when he came down, he had one more thing in his hand, and it was really a brass bell.

However, this copper bell is already worn, the original color cannot be seen, and there is nothing in it, no wonder the rope shook like that just now, and it didn't make any sound!

There was a faint black gas at the top of the brass bell, and I knew that it was the so-called resentment.

I remember mentioning in the little broken book that if the grievance is so thick that it is visible to the naked eye, it is extremely dangerous.

But I don't know if I can see the resentment, because the resentment on the brass bell is too heavy, or if my eyes are different from ordinary people.

Generally speaking, the copper bell has the effect of attracting wealth and warding off evil spirits, but why, the person with this layout wants to tie the copper bell to the head of the dry corpse?

Is it to prevent this resentment from reaching the ground?

I told Han Jiuchen what I thought, but he shook his head and said.

"On the contrary," Han Jiuchen handed the copper bell to my eyes as he spoke, and also held up the heart lamp a little, "Look carefully, there are runes written on the inside and outside of this copper bell. ”

I looked at it carefully for a while, and there were indeed dense runes.

Because it was so dense that it covered almost the entire copper bell, it was no wonder that I couldn't see its original color before.

Han Jiuchen told me, "The thing used to write runes is 魉油. ”

"Fish?" I read this in a small broken book, "It's the ghost that appeared in the southwest generation in ancient times and lived by sucking resentment?" ”

Han Jiuchen nodded, "That's right, Wei's resentment is strong, and some ordinary magic weapons have no effect on it. ”

Han Jiuchen told me that the oil is its corpse oil, the color is similar to cinnabar, and it has the effect of restraining magic weapons, and some people who raise ghosts and zombies like to use it to destroy the spirituality of magic weapons.

And the function of these runes is to deduct grievances.

This is the saying of some alchemists, as the name suggests, it means to withhold grievances.

A hole had been dug at the top of the bell, and he had just checked it on it, and the ropes hanging from the top were wrapped in a very thin tube, which was also densely covered with runes, and the tip of the pipe was inserted into the hole.

When we entered before, he didn't feel the resentment, and originally thought that the Scarlet Emperor had absorbed the resentment, so he didn't think much about it.

Now it seems that the resentment in this was not absorbed by the Scarlet Emperor, but transmitted to it through this copper bell and thin tube.

I suddenly said: "It's Tang Xuanyi, he deliberately took away the resentment here!" ”

Han Jiuchen was about to answer me when we heard a click-click-click.

Han Jiuchen and I looked at the source of the sound at the same time, and found that the dried corpses that he had put down earlier had actually gotten up from the ground!

As if they had just woken up from a deep slumber, they twisted their necks and waved their hands, as if they were stretching before exercising, while also walking towards us step by step.

Seeing this, I gasped, took a few steps back, remembered Han Jiuchen's words just now, and asked, "Is this the soul remaining in my body in action?" Are they still alive? ”

After saying that, I felt like a fool, my body was like this, and I was still living a fart!

Han Jiuchen looked up at the thin tube that was exposed in the air because of the lack of the copper bell, frowned and said, "It's resentment!" The remaining resentment in the pipe leaked out, and these dried corpses that had been pulled out of the soul condensation nails were affected, urging the remaining souls. ”

Han Jiuchen said that the corpses that had been nailed by the Soul Condensation were extremely resentful, and they needed to suck human blood to replenish their bodies, and they must not be allowed to catch and bite, otherwise it would be a big trouble for the resentment to invade the body!

Originally, I still had a trace of sympathy for these dried corpses, but as soon as Han Jiuchen's words came out, I was filled with fear.

"So what do we do?"

"Pick up the Soul Spike and stick it back!" As he spoke, Han Jiuchen took out the Heavenly Punishment and attacked the dry corpses that were gradually approaching among them.

Several sword qi flew away, and although the dried corpse was beaten to pieces, it continued to move.

I hid behind Han Jiuchen and asked in surprise, "Aren't they afraid?" ”

Han Jiuchen said, "You drag them back, I'll go and pick up the Soul Meditation Nails." ”

What? I? Hold them back?

What an international joke, hey!

"I'm going to be bitten to death!" I was scared and cried.

Han Jiuchen ignored me, took out a dagger, cut my wrist, and immediately bled like a pour, and I was so painful that tears came out!

"Walking against the wall, they are afraid of the ghost scripture and dare not lean against the wall."

The dried corpses smelled blood, and they writhed and lunged at me.

I ran to the farthest corner from them and stood against the wall.

Sure enough, as Han Jiuchen said, the corpses were afraid of the ghost suppression scripture on the wall, and they were still some distance away from me, so they didn't dare to get any closer, and they all let out roaring cries and surrounded me.

Han Jiuchen took the opportunity to pick up the Soul Condensing Nail.

I don't know what incantation he recited to the Heavenly Punishment, but the Heavenly Punishment actually turned into a long whip.

He whipped the corpses one by one and pulled them through, inserting the Soul Nail back into their Heavenly Spirit Cover.

When the Soul Spike was inserted back, they instantly stopped moving, and reverted back to being a dry corpse as quiet as a chicken.

Han Jiuchen simply helped me treat the wounds, and then laid the dried corpses on the ground one by one, "They are also pitiful people who have been subjected to such cruel spells that they cannot be reborn." ”

I looked at his side face, I don't know if it was my psychological effect, I always felt that he looked very pale at the moment, I felt so distressed, I wanted to rush over and hug him and say: Actually, you too.

But I never spoke.

We continued to move forward with the heart lamp, and Han Jiuchen opened the second door in the same way.

Behind the door is another stone room, we stood at the door and looked in, and found that the inside room, half smaller than the outside, looks about the same size as the ancestral hall above, and even the furnishings are exactly the same, the only difference is that in the middle of this stone room, there is a coffin.

When I saw the coffin, my heart was a little empty, and I moved myself two steps behind Han Jiuchen.

Han Jiuchen shook my hand with his backhand, signaling me not to be afraid and follow him.

He stepped inside, and I hurried to follow.

As he walked, he told me not to touch anything in here, and that there was no corpse poison or mechanism.

I answered again and again, wanting to ask him if it was possible that the coffin contained the corpse of the ghost king, but before the words could be spoken, I heard a loud bang coming from behind.

Hearing the sound, Han Jiuchen and I turned around at the same time, only to see that the carved wooden door had been closed.

At this time, I realized that only the outer layer of this door was wooden, and the inside was actually a stone door!

I was so frightened that my brain was dazed, and I instantly forgot Han Jiuchen's previous confession, screaming and running to the door and patting it.

Actually, I knew it didn't work at all, but I just did it subconsciously!

Han Jiuchen turned to look at my movements, stepped forward and dragged me back, and said angrily: "Su Qingzheng, what I said to you just now, turn around and turn around and take it as a deaf ear, right?" ”

I was dragged by him and staggered and almost fell to my knees, but he caught me in time and took me into his arms.

I didn't have time to defend myself, so I cried on his face and said, "The door is closed, what should I do?" ”

Han Jiuchen's face was not very good, and it was even more ugly at this time.

He pushed me away and scolded: "It's off, it's off, what are you panicking about, can you still make you unable to get out with me!" What did I tell you earlier? You're so reckless, what are you going to do if there's a poison or a mechanism on that door? I don't know how you die! ”

I craned my neck, scolded by him so much that I didn't dare to say anything.

But I am secretly happy in my heart, since I met, although he has scolded me many times, but he has never yelled at me in such a bad anger!

He nervous me, I know.

Thinking like this, the grievances in my heart vanished.

I looked at him pitifully with a flat mouth, and when he finished scolding, I whispered and said in a crying voice, "I was wrong." ”

Seeing me like this, Han Jiuchen sighed a little helplessly, and said in a softened tone: "There is not much time, you can save me some snacks, will you?" ”

As soon as I heard this, I knew that he was half angry, and immediately nodded like pounding garlic, and while drilling into his arms, he sniffed and asked, "Han Jiuchen...... Were you nervous just now? ”

Although Han Jiuchen didn't speak, I could feel that he was really scared just now.

Han Jiuchen rubbed my head and buried his head against my forehead, which was considered a tacit acquiescence.

I lowered my eyelids and stared at the tip of his nose and lips, and my heart moved, thinking that the atmosphere was so good, why not come and pop one?

I was about to tiptoe to give him a sneak attack, when I suddenly remembered that he had chewed on those foul-smelling dirt outside, and all the pink bubbles in my heart burst in an instant, and the first thing I did when I got back was to let him brush his teeth and rinse his mouth, a must!
