Chapter 111: Choice

Shen Shi suddenly fell silent under Niu Xiong's strange dark red eyes, and did not speak for a long time.

Niu Xiong waited for a while, as if he had guessed what Shen Shi was thinking, and said coldly: "Don't think about escaping from this demon hunting cave alone, it's impossible." ”

Shen Shi raised his head suddenly, looked at Niu Xiong, Niu Xiong sneered, and said: "Don't worry, although I am not like a human ghost or a ghost now, and my heart is like a dead heart, I still can't do something like a pig and a dog like Lin Hu." ”

Shen Shi frowned, and said in a low voice: "Senior Brother Niu, you misunderstood me, it's a big matter, I'm just ...... I couldn't think about it for a while. ”

Niu Xiong said: "I'll tell you the truth, that Yin Ghost King didn't know what chance he had, and he actually got a strange treasure called 'Tianfan Ancient Pearl', so he made great progress." You see that there are no other ghosts in this demon hunting cave except for me and Lin Hu and the Yin Ghost King, isn't it strange?"

This is exactly a doubt that Shen Shi has been haunting in his heart, and he was stunned at the moment: "Could it be that this has something to do with the Fangu Zhu that day?"

Niu Xiong's voice paused for a moment, and it seemed to be a little hesitant, and said, "I can't tell you about this matter, but what I know is that the Yin Ghost King has used the power of this Heavenly Brahma Ancient Bead to do a lot of strange things. ”

Shen Shi was puzzled, looked at Niu Xiong and repeated, "Strange thing?"

Niu Xiong nodded slowly and said, "The deepest part of this demon hunting cave is the stone chamber just now, but as far as I know, there was absolutely no underground tunnel in the stone chamber in the past. There was a flash of golden light in it, and I didn't know what it was, but the Yin Ghost King had always personally guarded the side of that passage, never letting others get close, and even the Heavenly Ancient Bead, he had always placed it under that tunnel. ”

Shen Shi was taken aback and said, "Since that bead is a magic weapon, the Yin Ghost King actually doesn't carry it with him?"

Niu Xiong said: "Exactly, I am also puzzled by this, but I did see the Yin Ghost King summon the Heavenly Ancient Bead from the bottom of that cave with my own eyes. In addition, the ghost also found a cave under the demon trapping cave, and there was a dark river in it, all of which were poured into the sea. In the past few years, the Yin Ghost King has often taken that bead there, and he doesn't know what kind of ghost magic he has cast, but he can take in countless fish creatures in the sea and suck these angry ......"

Shen Shi's body was shocked, and in an instant, he remembered that the fish in the waters around Qingyu Island had suddenly disappeared over the years, and it turned out that the root cause was actually in the depths of this demon island. And seeing that starfish was suddenly caught here, I am afraid that it was also caused by the power of the Fangu Zhu that day.

It is unbelievable that there is such a strange and magical magic weapon in this world.

Niu Xiong continued: "After I was killed, in addition to grief and anger, in order to take revenge, I had to grit my teeth and make a mistake with these disgusting ghosts, but I also learned some secrets from them, it turned out that what this Yin Ghost King did was to escape from this demon island. ”

Shen Shi raised his eyebrows, and vaguely thought of something in his heart, only to hear Niu Xiong's voice said: "The seal prohibition at the entrance of the demon hunting cave has been weakened for a long time, and the Yin Ghost King has the magic weapon of unknown origin in his hand, so it has been broken by him, which is also the reason why all the ghosts in the cave have gone out; ”

"Originally, I thought that the Yin Ghost King would almost be trapped here, as long as there are masters in the Lingxiao Sect who find some signs on this demon island in the future, there will naturally be masters who will come down to check it, and then everything will naturally be solved. But these days, I found that the Yin Ghost King was guarding the side of the stone chamber tunnel for some reason, plus the golden light, by the way, do you think that golden light is a little familiar?"

Shen Shi was stunned, but he didn't expect Niu Xiong to feel like this, so he nodded again and again, frowned, and said: "Senior brother said very much, I do feel like this, but for a while, I really can't think of where I have seen this kind of golden light before." ”

Niu Xiong sneered and said, "I have been puzzled for a long time before, and ordinary people can't think of it at all, and it was also by chance that I suddenly blessed my soul, and then I woke up." That kind of golden light, before you came to Haizhou, did you ever sit in the teleportation circle?"

Shen Shi nodded and said, "I've sat down, I didn't have Taoism at that time, and I was tormented miserably...... What, teleportation circle?"

Niu Xiong's eyes were different from ordinary people, although there was darkness around him, he clearly saw Shen Shi's unbelievable expression in the dark, and said lightly: "Yes, it is the teleportation array, and it is not the teleportation circle imitated by ordinary people, it is the kind of ancient teleportation circle that has been handed down since ancient times and communicates between all walks of life in Hongmeng!"

Shen Shi only felt a little buzzing in his head for a while, as if it was difficult to accept this reality, and he was silent for a long time before he said astringently: "Impossible, how can those ancient teleportation circles be deep underground, or on this demon island?"

Niu Xiong said solemnly: "I don't understand either, but I think about it, that golden light can make the Yin Ghost King abandon everything so solemnly and protect it personally, the only way to escape is maybe an ancient teleportation circle that we have never discovered!"

An ancient teleportation circle hidden deep underground, which has never been discovered, and this place is precisely the demon island opened up by the ancestors of the Lingxiao Sect many years ago, could it be that those ancestors with vast powers didn't find any strange traces here?

Shen Shi was silent for a long time, and it seemed that he slowly accepted this amazing fact, raised his head, looked at Niu Xiong, and said, "Senior brother, what do you want me to do when you tell me this?"

Niu Xiong said in a deep voice: "Senior Brother Shen, I didn't mean to force you. Now the Yin Ghost King will expel all the ghosts out of this demon hunting cave every three days, for some reason, so at this moment there are all ghosts outside the cave entrance, and you can't escape, but if you stay here for a little longer, after three days, all the ghosts will return to the cave, that is, every corner here is a Yin spirit ghost, and you are also a dead end. So your only way to survive may be in that stone tunnel. ”

Shen Shi's pupils shrank, and said, "You, you're letting me go down there?"

Niu Xiong said: "I have a way to lure away Lin Hu's beast, and it will attract the attention of the Yin Ghost King, if it goes well, he may leave the cave for a while, and then he should not go back until I am completely dead." You take this opportunity to rush to the bottom of the cave, destroy everything inside, and if it's a teleportation circle, you leave from there, that's your only way to survive, and perhaps, you can save the life of the red clam girl. ”

Shen Shi stared at Niu Xiong, and after a while, he said word by word: "But, you just said that you haven't gone down yourself, so you don't know what is underground?"

Niu Xiong said calmly: "Exactly." ”

Shen Shi gritted his teeth and said, "If you guess wrong, senior brother, what if the underground of the stone chamber is a dead end at all, and there is nothing at all except a few stones that will glow gold?"

Niu Xiong was silent for a moment, and said, "Then you can cut yourself, so as not to become a monster like me, who is not like a human or a ghost." ”

※※※

Sometimes, people really don't have many choices, even in life-and-death situations, which is desperate.

One is a Jedi who is nine deaths and one is an exit that is lifeless, if it is you, which one do you choose?

Shen Shi didn't want to choose any of them, but the most helpless thing in this world was that you couldn't choose it, not to mention that Niu Xiong had already said clearly that he was going to exchange his life for a life, and he was desperate to kill Lin Hu and then attract the attention of the Yin Ghost King, and when it came to this, Shen Shi had nothing to say.

In the end, Shen Shi only asked Niu Xiong the last sentence: "Senior Brother Niu, why do you have to go?"

Niu Xiong's answer was very simple, only four words: "I want him to die!"

Everything seems to have been decided in this way, between the desperate situation of death and the glimmer of life, Shen Shi can only choose the desperate underground stone chamber, and if the golden light there is not the golden fetal stone of the ancient teleportation circle, but some inexplicable golden red golden light, he can only be blocked by a fierce ghost like the Yin Ghost King, and there is no way to escape.

Niu Xiong took Shen Shi and walked back to the narrow road in the dark, stopping at the edge of the stone crack, Shen Shi glanced at the stone crack and whispered: "This gap is too small, I can't get through." ”

Niu Xiong snorted and said, "After the Perineum Ghost King leaves, if you go forward a little further, there will be a bigger hole, and you should barely be able to go down." ”

Shen Shi frowned and said, "Since the Yin Ghost King has left, why can't I go through the door?"

Niu Xiong was silent for a moment, and said: "That ghost thing really values this place too much, I don't think he will go far from the entrance of the stone chamber, and pass through the door, I am afraid that he will be discovered immediately." ”

Shen Shi only felt a sigh in his heart, he wouldn't even leave the entrance of this stone room far, wouldn't it be a blink of an eye for the Yin Ghost King to come back, how much time could he leave for himself?

Niu Xiong didn't say anything more, just glanced at Shen Shi deeply, and said, "I've endured it for a long time, if I wasn't worried that the Yin Ghost King would escape from here and harm my own sect, I would have fought with that Lin Hu a long time ago." It's just that I've had enough of these ghost days, and now that you're here today, it's the end of it all. ”

"You're doing it for yourself!"

After speaking, Niu Xiong turned around and strode away, his footsteps knocking on Shen Shi's heart in the dark.

Soon, in the boundless darkness, only Shen Shi was left, and he slowly leaned against the stone wall here, and in the stone room separated by a wall, was the terrifying and fierce Yin Ghost King.

For some reason, Shen Shi suddenly thought that in fact, it seemed that he had only met this senior brother Bull and Bear for only an hour.

Is one hour enough to give up your life and your safety to a plan that seems to be extremely dangerous?

Niu Xiong said that Lin Hu had become a ghost and had done things that angered people in order to survive, but ...... Now Senior Brother Niu Xiong, who is also a ghost, is his words really worth believing completely?

In the dark, Shen Shi suddenly felt a little chill in his body, but he didn't have much time to think, and soon, an abrupt scream suddenly came from somewhere outside the stone room, the voice was terrible and painful, it sounded like the cry of Lin Hu who had become a ghost.

Shen Shi's face turned pale in an instant, but he still gritted his teeth, slowly poked his head out of the crack in the stone, and peeked into the stone room.

The black ghost, as if it had been alarmed, floated slowly, seemed to be a little puzzled, turned away, and looked at the place where it was screaming.
