Chapter 103: Snatching and Dreaming
The scorched woods smell of decay, and deep in the foggy mountains lies a canyon.
There is a hidden cave in the canyon, and in that cave there is an old old tree, flowerless and leafless, but with many roots.
The body of the ancient tree is hundreds of meters high, but the top of the tree is cut flat and cut off.
The strange ancient tree is not straight, but bows like a bow.
Countless tendrils hung from the treetops, wrapped around a dozen thick chains engraved with runes.
Beneath the chains, there was a huge sarcophagus hanging vertically.
The lid of the sarcophagus was long gone, and there were two black shadows in the huge sarcophagus exuding an extremely evil aura.
On the body of the sarcophagus were countless dense runes, which were emitting a faint light at the moment.
Not far from the ancient tree, there is an altar with many complex patterns carved on the altar.
In the center of the formation, there was a towering stone tablet, and the stone tablet was engraved with many incomprehensible tadpole inscriptions.
At this moment, on the altar, an old man is laying a young girl flat on the ground.
Shirtless, he used a vermilion pen to carve strange textures on his body.
Immediately afterward, he walked to the center of the altar and took out a jar of liquid as bright red as blood and poured it on the stone tablet.
The stele had a strange pattern, and it was able to channel blood into the dense pattern formation on the altar.
As if flowers were blooming everywhere, the entire altar was covered with bright red blood.
The originally colorless altar was dyed red in the blink of an eye, and a powerful forbidden qi poured into the stone tablet and injected into the entire formation, making the formation gradually glow faintly.
Immediately after, the old man took out hundreds of forbidden stones and scattered them on each node of the formation.
Suddenly, the entire large array suddenly shone brightly, and gradually formed a light shield that enveloped the entire altar.
"Poof!"
Probably because of the consumption of too much forbidden qi, the old man suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood, and his body seemed to be a little sluggish and hideous.
His face was bloodshot and he looked extremely pained.
The strange lines that had been carved on his body before were also glowing with blood-colored light at this moment, like blood lines entwining the things in the old man's body.
Soon, the blood-colored threads that radiated light gradually dimmed, and the old man seemed to have relieved himself to exhale a breath of turbidity.
Somewhat weakly, he approached the maiden lying on the altar and took out a scarecrow and stuck it in her hair.
As the old man pinched his hand, the unconscious girl, who seemed to have no breath, slowly sat up.
Immediately after, the old man raised his hand and grabbed the girl's arms, and an extremely evil aura suddenly erupted from his body when he closed his eyes quietly.
I saw an illusory black shadow with a human face full of abscesses, which was floating out of the old man's body at this moment and slowly entered the girl's body.
"Bang!"
At this moment, a loud roar was heard outside the altar.
The shroud of light that shrouded the altar shook a little, but was not shattered by the force of the impact.
"Bang!"
"Bang ......"
Immediately afterward, the mask was subjected to an indiscriminate bombardment, but the mask was still undamaged, only ripples.
"Don't bother! Without the power of the Spirit King Realm, it would be impossible to break through the defense of the light shield! ”
Zhang Qian, who was sitting on the altar, heard a somewhat old mockery at this time.
"She's your own daughter, and you're calculating her like this, and you can't wait to take her away?"
Zhou Fan, who came to the scene, shouted angrily towards the altar, unable to figure out why the ghost king was so ruthless and didn't even let go of his own daughter.
"I want to let her go, too!"
"It's a pity that I want to strip the ominous in the soul of the evolutionary god, and I need the blood of my relatives to sacrifice."
"Only by taking her away can I live!"
Zhang Qian's voice came out of her body again, as if she was making excuses for herself.
"Even so, then there is no need to cause Zhang Qian to lose her life, right?"
"I can help you ......"
"Alright! Boy, you're smart, but you can't help me! ”
"This king knows that you want to delay time, but it is impossible for this little girl to wake up, so you will die of that heart!"
Before Zhou Fan finished speaking, he was interrupted by the Ghost King.
He seemed to know that Zhou Fan wanted to stall for time, but he didn't mind saying a few more nonsense when he was already sure of winning the battle.
Of course, he is not stupid and will not give Zhou Fan too much time.
"Ahh
"No way, how can you wake up!"
"Bang!"
Suddenly, an exclamation came from Zhang Qian's body.
Immediately after, an illusory black shadow was seen bounced back into the old man's body.
"Poof!"
At the same time, Zhang Qian and the old man all spurted out a mouthful of blood, and their faces seemed to be a little sluggish.
"Hey, hey! It was I who kept her hand so she could wake up from her dreams! ”
At this time, Zhou Fan suddenly appeared behind Zhang Qian and startled the ghost king, and hurriedly dodged and took two steps back.
"Impossible! Boy, you don't brag! ”
"She's completely forgotten about herself, there's no way she'll wake up!"
"I can't remember myself, even if she commits suicide, she will only end up in a dead end."
The ghost king still didn't believe that Zhang Qian could wake up, and he worked hard to let Zhang Qian's soul fall into a dream.
"If you're not in a hurry, then I'll give you a reason, what do you think?"
Zhou Fan was not sure of defeating the Ghost King, so he could only delay as much time as possible for the time being.
"Good! There's no hurry to kill you, I'll hear how you did it! ”
The ghost king has been planning painstakingly, and now he is being destroyed by Zhou Fan, and he almost hates him to the core.
But he also wanted to hear what link he had gone wrong in, so that the other party could turn against the army.
"Let's start with you and Zhang Qian entering the No. 3 sarcophagus!"
"By the way, he is your father and the ghost king, always thinking about harming you, and he is also the grimace mask!"
Zhou Fan was already about to enter the topic, but when he saw that Zhang Qian seemed to be a little confused when he woke up, he hurriedly explained and reminded her.
The ghost king on the opposite side twitched his cheeks slightly when he heard this, and he almost couldn't help but beat Zhou Fan.
Zhang Qian, who was a little messy in her mind, also reacted at this moment, and looked at the old man opposite, her eyes couldn't help but be a little complicated.
She didn't speak, but quietly watched Zhou Fan waiting for his explanation.
"This No. 3 sarcophagus, all those who enter should be wrapped in mud, and then sent into the Buddha shrine cave on the cliff of Wanzhang Mountain by mysterious power to become clay figures."
"And these people will enter the dream realm and forget their own memories, once the soul falls into the dream for a long time, the physical body of the outside world will die."
"When the physical body of the outside world is completely dead, the soul in the dream realm should also be gradually erased and eventually become a puppet."
Zhou Fan began to speak slowly, revealing the secrets of the No. 3 sarcophagus dream.
"What about you?"
Zhang Qian, who had completely come back to her senses, couldn't help but raise her own questions when she listened to Zhou Fan's speculation.
She knew that her father, the Ghost King and Zhou Fan, were in the realm of dreams, and she recovered her own memories.
"Me and the Ghost King are exceptions, we are actually outsiders."
"That dream should have a loophole, and it will only erase the memories of the person who has the skull mark of the sarcophagus number three."
"Although I also have a skull mark, it is not the mark of the third coffin, so as long as I fall into a deep sleep, my memory will slowly recover."
"Your father, the bad old man of the Ghost King, knows this, so he always scares me and doesn't let me sleep."
“......”
The ghost king standing opposite his cheeks twitched slightly when he heard this, but he didn't refute it, obviously acquiescing to Zhou Fan's guess.
"Before I entered the dream, Zhang Qian should have integrated into the dream and thought that she was the autumn cicada."
"Ghost King, your original guy should be luring her out of the village and letting her be killed by something in the darkness outside the village!"
"It's just that my sudden intrusion disrupted everything, and there should have been some subtle changes in the realm of dreams......"
Zhou Fan spoke slowly again, saying his various conjectures.
The candle flame in the house in the dream courtyard was the only candle light in the village, and the ghost king was too careless to notice this unusual.
The candle lamp was left by Liu Shan and obtained by Zhou Fan in the forbidden land of dry bones.
It was also extremely surprising to him that it was able to enter the dream world.
Although Zhou Fan left the dream, the lamp remained in the dream.
There is a young girl's soul body poem in that lamp, she is usually useless, except for Zhou Fan's skirt to relieve boredom, she has no combat effectiveness.
But this time I was able to wake up Zhang Qian in time, and it was really a loss to her.
"It turned out that I missed a lamp!"
The ghost king said with a gloomy face!
Unexpectedly, after preparing for a long time, he, who had already planned everything, would fall short because of a lamp.
"You're going to use strong?"
At this time, Zhou Fan looked at the ghost king with a solemn face and asked.
"Ridiculous! I am already in the Spirit King Realm, why do you stop me? ”
The ghost king, who was already exuding a terrifying aura on his body, did not hide his killing intent at all.
"I want to ask you, you gave birth to me to take away?"
"Yes!"
"You don't care about me?"
"Yes!"
"I'm your only flesh and blood!"
"So what? I want flesh and bones to be ready to create! ”
In the face of Zhang Qian's questioning, the ghost king replied very indifferently.
I saw that he suddenly dodged and swept towards Zhang Qian, but was forced back by the flames urged by Zhou Fan.
"You're already half-human, half-treacherous, so this flame will restrain you!"
Zhou Fan shouted violently, and all the forbidden qi in his body poured into the lamp, and he urged the lamp to turn into a fire snake and spit flames to emerge the ghost king.
The ghost king snorted coldly, and the black qi around him turned into a black bat and pounced on the fire snake.
The moment a bat and a fire snake fought together, the ghost king's body flashed and disappeared in place.
"Bang!"
There was a loud bang, and there was a big dirt pit where Zhang Qian was originally standing.
"Woohoo!"
I saw the overwhelming vines wrapping around the ghost king in the blink of an eye, spreading countless vine leaves on the ground.
"Humph!"
The Ghost King snorted coldly, and his body turned into a cloud of black mist that blinked through countless vines.
Those vines stained by the black mist began to wither and rot rapidly, and the frightened Zhou Fan took Zhang Qian and hurriedly retreated into the distance.
"Obediently, I can not kill that kid!"
"Otherwise, don't blame this king for going on a killing spree!"
The ghost king's cold gaze fell on Zhang Qian, obviously warning that the threat was to her.
"He won't let me go!"
"And there's no way I'm going to watch you get taken away!"
Without waiting for Zhang Qian to speak, Zhou Fan had already made his position clear.
