Chapter 5: Phantom Array
Haoyan, Zheng Chu, and Zheng Fei scanned more than a dozen white shadows together, although they didn't seem scared on the surface, but anyone who suddenly encountered this situation would feel furious in their hearts.
"What are these things, are they really ghosts?" Haoyan looked at those erratic white shadows with disbelief, and Wang Xueshuang, who was beside him, turned even pale.
Zheng Chu opened his mouth at this moment and said: "These must be illusions within the formation, don't pay attention to these white shadows, they are just scary things."
When several people heard Zheng Chu's words, they felt a little relieved, but just when their minds were not completely calmed down, Zheng Fei heard a miserable scream, and Zheng He's position was only two steps away from Zheng Chu.
This scream was heartbreaking, tensing everyone's nerves that were about to relax again, Haoyan, Wang Xueshuang, Xiaopang and Zheng Chu looked at Zheng Fei almost at the same time.
I saw that Zheng Fei was cut off the arm of his right hand shoulder to shoulder at this time, and the entire right internal organs were undoubtedly exposed, which was extremely terrifying, and Zheng Fei couldn't bear the pain at this moment, and the whole person fainted to death, of course, if it can't be cured, I'm afraid that only death awaits Zheng Fei.
Zheng Chu saw his younger brother become like this, and hurriedly stepped forward to help his younger brother: "Brother, you have to hold on, you must hold on, I will definitely save you."
Zheng Chu's summoning seemed to have an effect, Zheng Fei opened his eyes with difficulty, glanced at Zheng Chu, immediately closed them, and then tilted his head and completely lost his breath.
"Brother......." A heart-rending roar came from Zheng Chu's mouth, and Haoyan, Xiaopang and Wang Xueshuang on the side all had palpitations at the moment.
However, at this moment, a sharp blade like a crescent moon flew towards Zheng Chu, and when Hao Yan saw it, he immediately shouted loudly: "Zheng Chu, be careful" But Hao Yan's reminder was still a step too late, and the sickly crescent-like blade slashed across Zheng Chu's neck, and Zheng Chu's head fell, almost falling with Hao Yan's voice.
Chubby's voice almost cried: "Is this still an assessment? Isn't this a human life? Is this a collection of apprentices?"
No one answered Chubby, because no one knows how to answer this question now.
At this moment, Haoyan was shocked in his heart, but his face remained calm: "Okay, no matter what the assessment is, since we are here, we must pass the assessment alive."
"But those white ghost-like things are still there, what should we do?" said Wang Xueshuang.
Haoyan looked at Wang Xueshuang and said with a wry smile: "Let's choose a direction and go out and talk."
Wang Xueshuang and Xiaopang had no opinion when they heard Haoyan's words, and at this moment the two seemed to have regarded Haoyan as their only support.
However, just as Haoyan's words fell, he suddenly felt restless in his heart, as if an ominous premonition flashed in his heart, and then a thought of letting himself lie down appeared in Haoyan's mind.
Haoyan shouted like a launch: "Lie down" The words fell, Haoyan first lay on the ground, Xiaopang and Wang Xueshuang heard it, they didn't think much about it, and actually lay down together.
The moment the three of them lay down, several streamers flew over the heads of the three people, and even Wang Xueshuang's hairpin was cut off.
"It's so dangerous! Fortunately, Haoyan reminded me, otherwise the fat man and my little life would have been explained to sit here, woo...... Fat man, I haven't married a wife and had children! I can't die here."
Wang Xueshuang also looked scared, she didn't pay attention to Xiaopang's words at all, but looked at Haoyan with doubts, Haoyan also ignored Xiaopang, seeing Wang Xueshuang's doubts, Haoyan said: "Actually, I don't know what's going on, I just suddenly feel dangerous"
In fact, Haoyan himself really didn't know what was going on, he could actually feel the danger coming, Wang Xueshuang's explanation for Haoyan didn't say anything, just the rest of the way, Wang Xueshuang followed Haoyan's footsteps closely, and Xiaopang naturally followed very closely.
Haoyan walked briskly in one direction, but after walking for a short time of a pillar of incense, the three of them still did not get out of the encirclement of the white ghost, but within this pillar of incense, they did not suffer any attacks.
"Haoyan, what's going on, these ghosts around us are still surrounding us"
"I don't know about this, don't worry about it for now, since they didn't attack us, let's keep going"
When Wang Xueshuang heard Haoyan's words, her brows tightened: "It's not a way to go on like this, maybe we've been turning in place?"
At this time, Chubby said: "Yes, yes, yes, I also think we are going in circles, we have to find a way to get out."
Haoyan heard the words of Xiaopang and Wang Xueshuang, and nodded: "I think the weirdness is in these ghosts, they haven't attacked us for a long time, but they have begun to confuse us, just like ghosts hitting a wall."
"Haoyan, in this case, in my opinion, it is better for us to shoot directly at one of the ghosts, maybe this can break this phantom array" Wang Xueshuang went first, although he was afraid, but at this moment, he calmed down.
Haoyan nodded: "I also have this idea"
"No, you want to make a move on the ghost, we don't know how to use spells, how can we beat the ghost" The little fat on the side heard that Haoyan and Wang Xueshuang were going to make a move on the ghost, and immediately became anxious.
"Chubby, this may be our chance to go out" Haoyan looked at Chubby, who was a little palpitating, and said comfortingly.
"But we don't have weapons"
"Just with your fists"
Hao Yan didn't pay attention to Xiao Fat's worries anymore, and took the brunt of it, facing one of the ghosts, raising his hand to punch him, and the ghost's face door was directly deflated by Hao Yan's punch.
A "bang" sound sounded like hitting a wooden board, and Haoyan felt that the ghost in front of him was not a real ghost at all, so he said loudly: "Damn, these are not ghosts at all"
"What?" The little fat behind him heard Haoyan's voice and asked loudly, and Wang Xueshuang also walked quickly towards Haoyan at this moment.
Wang Xueshuang saw the white ghost hit by Haoyan, and frowned: "It seems that it is indeed as Zheng Chu and Zheng He brothers said, we are really in a formation, if this is the case, we are very likely to go around in one place, but we don't see the bodies of Zheng Chu and Zheng He anymore when we go back and forth."
"You mean it's very likely that what we're experiencing is an illusion?" Haoyan heard Wang Xueshuang's words and turned his head to look at Wang Xueshuang.
Wang Xueshuang said uncertainly: "Let's look to see if we can find the bodies of Zheng Chu and Zheng He, if we can find it, it means that what we are experiencing is not an illusion, if we can't find it, then it is likely that as soon as we walk on the chain bridge, we will enter a world of illusions."
At this moment, Wang Xueshuang's wisdom reminded Haoyan, so Haoyan directly led the two to start looking for the bodies of Zheng Chu and Zheng He.
After searching for nearly an hour, the three of them didn't find it, and Xiaopang said directly: "It seems that as Xueshuang said, we are really in a world of illusions now."
"But how do you get rid of the illusion?" Wang Xueshuang asked again.
"Huh, those white ghosts seem to have all disappeared," Chubby casually glanced around, but was surprised to find that the white ghosts that had been surrounding the three of them had disappeared.
When Haoyan and Wang Xueshuang heard Xiaopang's words, they began to pay attention to the movements around them, and they really didn't see those white ghosts anymore. However, at this time, Haoyan suddenly had a dangerous signal in his mind.
And this time the warning seemed to be stronger than at the beginning, but Haoyan didn't find the source of the danger, so he could only say: "Be careful, I feel the danger coming"
Wang Xueshuang and Xiaopang were all vigilant, Xiaopang even glanced around from time to time, Haoyan's muscles were tense at the moment, constantly looking for the source of danger.
"Pay attention to your feet, it's a thorn in the ground" Haoyan finally discovered where the danger came from at this moment, and reminded Xiaopang and Wang Xueshuang loudly.
Wang Xueshuang and Xiaopang heard Haoyan's reminder, and hurriedly paid attention to their feet, only to see that there were constantly sharp blades like spears piercing out under their feet, Wang Xueshuang couldn't dodge in time, and her feet and stomachs were directly scratched by the spear.
Haoyan and Xiaopang hurriedly stepped forward to support Wang Xueshuang, who almost fell to the ground due to pain, and while supporting Wang Xueshuang, Haoyan and Xiaopang dodged the sudden stabbing on the ground.
"Damn, is this true or false, if it's an illusion, how can I feel so real, damn it, wait for the fat man, I'm going to be strong one day, and I'm going to ruin this place" Chubby was really angry at this moment.
Haoyan heard Xiaopang's words and smiled: "Find a way to leave this ghost place first, and then talk about the future"
The ground thorns on the ground did not stop because of Wang Xueshuang's injury, but became faster because of Xiaopang's abuse. At the speed of the current thorns, it would be very difficult to act with an individual.
Wang Xueshuang's face was haggard at the moment, and she couldn't see a trace of coldness on her face, some were just weak and pale: "You two hurry up, don't die here because of me."
"Impossible, we are from a village, Haoyan and I will never leave you" Xiaopang said categorically, at this time Xiaopang seemed to have an irresistible charm, Wang Xueshuang felt that there was no room for refutation.
And Haoyan will not throw Wang Xueshuang behind, although Haoyan has only stayed in Wangjia Village for less than a year, but to escape in case of trouble, this is not Haoyan's character.
"I'll carry you away" After speaking, Haoyan didn't care whether Wang Xueshuang wanted to or not, he directly picked up Wang Xueshuang, and began to dodge the ground stabs, and Xiaopang only followed behind Haoyan.
After about half an hour, the thorns seemed to be tired and did not appear, Haoyan and Xiaopang finally let out a sigh, but Wang Xueshuang was extremely tired at this time, and her eyes closed unconsciously.
"Snow Frost, Snow Frost" Hao Yan summoned Wang Xueshuang twice in a row, Wang Xueshuang slowly opened his eyes, Hao Yan saw it, and immediately said: "It's not good, the thorns should be poisonous, otherwise Snow Frost wouldn't be like this"
When Xiaopang heard this, he immediately frowned: "Then what should we do? Will Xueshuang die?"
Haoyan shook his head: "You and I are not medical scholars, and we don't know what kind of poison is in Xueshuang, the only way now is to call for help, I hope that someone will come out to save this sect."
But just when Haoyan felt that something was wrong, Xiaopang had already opened his voice and shouted loudly: "The people who belong to the sect are here, we have poisoned someone here, come and heal."
Haoyan hurriedly said: "Wait, since this is the assessment venue, and the place where we are located is a phantom array, then the Guiyi Gate will definitely not come to the rescue, so now we only have two ways, one is to wait for the end of the assessment, and the other is to pass the assessment."
"Waiting for the assessment to end, but we don't know exactly when this assessment will end" Xiaopang looked at Haoyan with depressed eyes.
"Since there is no way to know, then we can only continue to assess and find the flaws in this phantom array."
"Can you find it?"
Looking at the questioning little fat, Haoyan had to shake his head: "Look at luck, while the thorns are gone, let's hurry up and see if we can get out of the formation."
After speaking, Haoyan put down Wang Xueshuang, raised his eyes and looked around, but he didn't dare to move around, because since this was a phantom array, if he walked away, he would probably lose Wang Xueshuang, which was something Haoyan didn't want to see.
"Chubby, I'll take a look around, you are here to guard the snow and frost, remember not to move around at will, I won't go far, we can't go beyond the distance of sight between each other"
Hearing Haoyan's words, Xiaopang nodded heavily, Haoyan smiled at Xiaopang, and began to investigate around.
It's just that as soon as he walked out a short distance, Haoyan's surroundings began to fog, seeing this, Haoyan hurriedly turned around to return to Xiaopang and Wang Xueshuang's side, but walked along the way he came, where was Xiaopang and Wang Xueshuang.
