Chapter 629: Deathly Footsteps
I've become a ghost rider?
The frightened Li Yang still looked at Yang Jian with an incredible look, a little confused, and seemed to be thinking about the meaning of the three words ghost master.
"Don't look at me like that, you'll soon know what's going on with you. ”
Yang Jian didn't take much time to explain, he looked at the rotting corpse at the door of the room and roughly understood what was going on.
The ghost blocking the door is not this corpse, but a kind of powerful ghost that is possessed by a person, similar to a curse, it is incorporeal, and he suppressed this ghost just now, causing this dead corpse to lose the support of supernatural power, completely falling apart, and there is no way to act again.
So the demon chose another person to possess him.
Li Yang, who was the closest, became the target of the demon's possession.
Of course, this is only a conjecture, and it is possible that the last person to come out of the room will continue this curse and continue to exist in place of ghosts.
In a word.
Being able to become a ghost tamer is an accident of various supernatural events, Yang Jian himself has no way to explain this situation, he only knows that some ghosts can be controlled by the living, and some ghosts and living people will die if they touch them, as for where the boundary is, it is estimated that Wang Xiaoming is difficult to study.
"I kind of see what you mean...... I'm now one with the ghost in the room just now, and I've become it?" Li Yang was quick to accept, after all, he was a person who had lived here for many months.
Yang Jian was slightly surprised: "You understand it correctly, but you didn't become it, but were controlled by ghosts." ”
"But I didn't feel controlled. Li Yang said.
Yang Jian said, "That's because this is just the beginning, just like a person with cancer, how can it be that you will die just after you get it, it takes a little time to brew, and the same is true for ghost handlers, as time passes, you will feel more and more the existence of ghosts in your body, it will continue to erode you, and you also need to keep fighting ghosts, but in the end you will still become like this." ”
With that, he pointed to the rotting corpse in front of him.
"This, how can this be like this......" Li Yang was frightened.
Only then did he realize that the corpse in front of him might be the fate of the previous demon-possessed person, and he would become like this in a short time.
"So how can I avoid this?"
Immediately, Li Yang couldn't wait to ask again.
Yang Jian had already retracted his gaze at this moment, he was looking at other places, and then said casually: "It can't be avoided, when you can't hold it anymore, you may consider controlling the second ghost and using another ghost to fight against this ghost in your body, so that you can prolong the time for the ghost to kill you." ”
"Harness two ghosts, doesn't that make you die faster?" Li Yang felt creepy when he heard this method.
A ghost possessing himself is already frightened and uneasy, and if there is another ghost, can there still be life?
"It's true that they die faster, and this ordinary person doesn't have the opportunity to control two ghosts. ”
Yang Jian said: "But you don't need to worry, at least you can have the ability of ghosts to a certain extent while you are still alive, and you will also have some self-protection ability when you encounter supernatural events in the future." ”
"I'll give your ghost a code name, how about calling it a door-blocking ghost? Or you can call a ghost to block the door, choose your own. ”
"......" Li Yang was silent.
Immediately, he remembered again, this Yang Jian said when he introduced himself before, his code name: Ghost Eye.
looked at Yang Jian's eyes seriously.
Li Yang found that this person's eyes were very normal, exactly the same as ordinary people, the only difference was that his eyes were indifferent, as if he had no feelings, which made people feel very jealous.
"Are you observing me? or are you looking for the ghost in my body?" Yang Jian glanced at it: "Enough time has been wasted, keep looking, this place is not big, the ghost painting must be here." ”
Li Yang immediately withdrew his gaze, and then exchanged a few words with Jimmy next to him, telling him that the action would continue, and that Yang Jian had not been found in the room just now.
Jimmy almost rolled his eyes and fainted when he heard the news.
But at this point, it is up to them to decide.
There was no way, the two of them could only continue to follow Yang Jian and start looking for it on the third floor.
"The unexpected addition of a ghost rider may be of some help in some cases when my ghost eyes are restricted. Yang Jian said secretly in his heart at this moment,
Although there is a bit of a delay, there is one more potential helper, which is good news.
Otherwise, it would be a little difficult to deal with any danger that he really encountered on his own.
"Counting the guy in the room just now, there are at least six ghost riders dead in this small one-story building, and in addition to the ghost blocking the door in the room and the ghost on the wooden staircase, there may be other ghosts here, not all of them have left. Yang Jian analyzed the situation and was not in a good mood.
The situation here is more complicated than you think.
The only thing to be thankful for is that so far they haven't encountered truly scary ghosts.
Soon.
The three of them began to search for each other on this floor, and Yang Jian led them into a nearby room.
The door of this room was locked, there was nothing inside, Yang Jian looked very carefully, and even searched the side with a ghost carpet, but found nothing.
There was nothing unusual in the third room
There is no anomaly in the fourth room......
Except for the room just now, which was blocked by ghosts, there seemed to be no ghosts lingering in the other rooms before.
Yang Jian was almost certain that the third floor was safe.
"Isn't the ghost painting on the third floor?" Yang Jian returned to the middle of the corridor on the third floor again, he groaned, and his eyes couldn't help but lift up.
Maybe on the fourth floor.
The third and fourth floors are very close, and it is very possible that the ghost paintings are hidden on the fourth floor.
"Are we going to continue looking?" After hesitating for a long time, Li Yang couldn't help but ask.
He is not Yang Jian, in this highly mentally tense environment, it is difficult for ordinary people to hold on, and Jimmy next to him is no longer as active as before, and if he continues, his spirit will have problems.
"This is the mission of my trip, and I will not leave until I have completed it. ”
After Yang Jian finished speaking, he looked at Li Yang again: "It's all come to this point, and you still want to retreat? Don't be stupid, even if you return to the place where you hid just now, you can guarantee to leave alive?"
"It's just a few more days to survive, and if you want to leave, you have to come into contact with the ghost head-on, and even the exit I know is not necessarily safe, and there is a huge danger. ”
"I see. Although Li Yang didn't understand anything, he knew in his heart that Yang Jian's words were right.
If you want to live, you can only find clues and find an exit in the ghost.
There is no point in running away.
He has been running in this ghostly world for several months, and finally he is getting more and more miserable, and there are fewer and fewer people around him who survive...... I don't know if I'm going to die here.
"Go to the fourth floor. ”
Yang Jian's eyes moved slightly, he made such a dangerous decision.
Since the ghost painting is not on the third floor, the probability of being on the fourth floor is very high.
It's already very close to the source, and he won't back down and give up at this time.
"There is a ghost standing on the wooden staircase, from the footsteps just now, the ghost is most likely on the stairs on the fourth floor, if I go up the stairs, I will definitely encounter the ghost on the stairs, this is unavoidable, but the other places have been changed by ghost paintings, all the roads have been blocked, only this staircase has not changed. ”
Yang Jian looked at the old wooden staircase.
The staircase is not affected by the ghost painting, because there are ghosts on the stairs, otherwise the stairs have disappeared now, just like the room just now, as long as there are ghosts in the place, it can reduce the influence of the ghost paintings.
"You just stay here and keep an eye on the third floor for me, and I'll go to the fourth floor to make sure the stairs are okay and come back again." ”
Yang Jian didn't let Li Yang and the man named Jimmy follow.
At this time, letting them follow is tantamount to telling them to die, and Li Yang has just become a ghost master, Yang Jian doesn't want him to resurrect and die immediately, so as not to deal with the ghosts in his body again.
The two had no opinion.
Yang Jian chose to explore the path alone.
There are not many steps leading to the fourth floor, it is a staircase that can see the bottom.
The stairs are steep and narrow, and the wooden staircase inevitably creaks as soon as you step on it.
Although the sound is not loud, it is especially clear in this silent, oppressive dim environment.
"Crunch!"
Yang Jian had only taken a step, and there was an immediate response from upstairs, and there was a heavy footstep that seemed to be going down from upstairs.
The voice reappeared. Li Yang looked up and couldn't help but get nervous.
But Yang Jian didn't hesitate to go at all, he still had the curse of the music box echoing in his mind now, and he was not so timid in the face of the ghost walking down the stairs, so he quickly walked up the stairs again.
Step by step, although the pace is a little slow, but it is decisive.
Soon, he was halfway up the stairs, and by this time he could already look up to see the situation on the fourth floor.
Like the layout of the third floor, the only difference is that there are not so many corpses on the ground, and everything seems very normal.
However, the footsteps on the stairs were so close that he was sure that just above his head, there were a layer of wooden steps, less than five meters from each other.
"The ghost is on the stairs leading from the fourth floor to the fifth floor, and is now going down, in a position similar to where I am now, I have already walked half the steps, and if I continue to go forward, the ghost and I will meet in the corridor on the fourth floor. ”
Yang Jian estimated that he could already be very sure of the true location of the ghost.
"Since you can't get around it, it's inevitable, so let's confront this ghost head-on. ”
After thinking it through, he moved faster.
Without the slightest scruples, he walked directly through the stairs and quickly came to the fourth floor, and then stared at the staircase leading to the fifth floor next to him.
Ghosts are about to appear.
The next moment.
Yang Jian clearly heard a heavy footstep next to him, and he had already walked down from the fifth floor, and his current position was supposed to be on the fourth floor.
But I didn't see anything.
No ghosts were seen, and no anomalies were found.
But then.
Yang Jiang felt a dizziness in his whole person, and his consciousness felt like it was going to disappear, and the whole person couldn't stand steadily and fell directly at the staircase, as if he had died suddenly.
He was attacked by a ghost.
After falling to the ground, Yang Jian felt an indescribable cold feeling lingering around him in a daze, as if there was a person walking back and forth beside him, making that heavy footsteps.
But the footsteps lingered around a few times and then gradually disappeared, as if they were moving away, or Yang Jian was already "dead" and no longer met the target of the attack.
As the footsteps faded away.
Yang Jian soon felt that his consciousness was rapidly recovering, and the familiar music box ringtone in his mind made his originally disappeared consciousness pull back again.
"I almost died again?"
When his consciousness regained consciousness, Yang Jian felt a moment of fear.
This is the third time he has been saved by the ringing curse of the music box, the first time by the ghost scissors, the second time by the sound of the piano, and this is the third time...... As for being slashed by a strange wood knife that time, it can't be counted, it was an active temptation, which is different from the other times.
These three attacks are all a kind of weird nirvana, if Yang Jian didn't have the curse of the music box, he would definitely be killed, and there was no possibility of survival.
"Is this ghost wandering on the stairs really so scary? Yang Jian struggled to his feet.
This situation is used to it.
Of course, if he didn't have the curse of the music box, he would never have taken such a risk, knowing that there was a ghost on the stairs and still trying to go up.
He was now on the fourth floor, and he didn't hear that strange footsteps again.
Maybe it's leaving. Or they are still wandering around, just because Yang Jian is no longer the target of the ghosts, so they have not continued to be attacked
