The twenty-sixth round of the dungeon
Entering the White Rat Pavilion, the room was not big, and the White Rat looked at us a little playfully and said: "What are you doing here, just with the disguise you did before, the bardo body will not be able to enter this ghost city, if you are trapped outside the city, sooner or later you will have to swallow up the incense of the sea of flowers on the other side." ”
After the explanation of the white mouse, I realized that the so-called bardo body is a special stage within a few days after the death of a person, in this stage, although the person has been detached from the body, but there is still a trace of popularity and yang, and has not completely transformed into a complete yin body, can walk in broad daylight for a short time, the form of this stage is called the bardo body.
"Excuse me, Mr. Mouse, why are you helping us?" I was curious about the mouse's behavior, hoping to get an explanation for it.
The white mouse glared at me and said, "Because you are so idiotic, so idiot that you dare to follow me in such a place, do you think that I don't know if you are following me in the woods, but it will not take care of you." Okay, without further ado, I'm going out on errands now, and you're going to hide here and wait for me to come back, and I'll go out with you tomorrow. Remember, don't go out, it's not what you see or think about here. ”
Seeing that the white rat was about to go out, Yin An couldn't help asking: "Excuse me, white, white rat, is this really the underworld?"
"It's a fart! The ghost mansion you see outside is all an illusion, what kind of yin is here, it's completely an illusion made up by a bunch of evil demons and demons, or rather, these evil demons and demons come here to use as medicine residue in order to deceive the wandering spirits and wild ghosts outside in order to cultivate! Okay, I'm going to do something, don't say much, you must not go out, there are traps everywhere outside. The white mouse said, pushing open the door as if something was urgent, and walked out.
After the white rat went out, Yin An seemed to understand, so he said softly: "I'll just say, this bull head and horse face are all fake, maybe the appearance of that Meng Po and this dead city is fake." ”
After waiting in the White Mouse Pavilion for a long time, after a night of thrilling, Yin An and I were so tired that we leaned on a chair and fell asleep unconsciously.
I don't know how long I slept, there were faint bursts of footsteps in my ears, the sound was getting closer and closer, Yin An and I hurriedly woke up, listened carefully, and sure enough, a group of people walked towards the White Rat Pavilion, seeing this situation, Yin An and I became vigilant, and suddenly felt that we were so stupid, what if we were betrayed by the white mouse.
Sure enough, the door of the White Rat Pavilion was slammed vigorously outside, and a rude shout sounded: "Mr. White Mouse, I heard that you are back today, are you there?"
Yin An and I didn't dare to say anything, and after a few knocks on the door, a voice came from outside: "Strange, why didn't this white rat report to the ghost mansion when he came back, and besides, where did Niu Tou Ma Mian go, didn't someone see them with the white rat before." What's going on today, Niu Tou Ma Mian hasn't returned to the team so late. ”
I heard another voice say: "Those two guys, you may have heard that a new chick is coming, let's wait and see, after all, we are all brothers, so it's better not to tell Lord Zhong first." This white rat doesn't seem to be there, so let's go elsewhere. ”
As he spoke, a group of people outside the room faded away amid the sound of footsteps. Anxiously and dazedly, I continued to wait for the white mouse for a long time, I looked at my watch, the second hand was still walking, judging from the time, it was almost half a day since we came to the ghost cave, so in a few hours, it might be the middle of the night the next day.
Just as I was calculating the time and thinking about whether to continue to wait if the white mouse didn't come back, the strange waist tag hanging on my waist suddenly glowed a cold green light.
The flash of this green light gave me a bad premonition, hesitated for a moment, I quickly pulled Yin An out of the rat pavilion, and quietly hid in an unmanned attic next door to the rat pavilion, I thought to myself, if the rat betrayed us, we can no longer wait in the rat pavilion, but if the rat is out of good intentions, then we will wait for him next door.
It turned out that the one who betrayed us was not a white mouse, but a waist card on our waist. The white rat didn't know that there was a strange communication device inside the waist card that emitted green light, and when the green light was on, it was the headquarters of the Ghost Mansion searching for our location.
After a while, there were bursts of footsteps outside, and this time the target was not the White Mouse Pavilion, but the attic where Yin An and I were hiding.
"Bull head, horse noodles, come out quickly, damn, what are you hiding in there to make a name for yourself? Lord Zhong is angry, you still haven't returned to the team?"
At this point, I have understood that it must be a waist card ghost. There was no way, Yin An and I pushed open the door and walked out.
"Yo, two, what are you two doing hiding inside? "The leopard head outside has always been unhappy with the bull head and horse face, and the team that came before was led by the tiger head, but it is an old fellow with the bull head and horse face.
Yin An and I didn't dare to speak, afraid that the stuffing would be revealed as soon as I spoke, and I didn't answer the words of the leopard head, so I walked away from the side of the leopard's head, seeing that I was so rude to it, the leopard head was extremely faceless in front of a team of Yin soldiers wearing white armor, so I heard it continue to say sharply: "Niu Tou, Ma Mian, you two don't return to the team on time, Lord Zhong is very angry, I want to severely punish you two, small guys, take down the Niu Tou and Ma Mian for me!"
It may be because of the identity of the captain of the bull-headed horse-faced yin ghost, although the yin ghost under the leopard head surrounded us in a circle, but he didn't dare to make a move, or the leopard head was ruthless, and he wanted to use this opportunity to give the bull head and horse face a dismount, just to see this guy show his chains and hooks, and he came to me and Yin An on the spot.
This is what Yin An and I expected. At the last moment, we must break out, and no matter whether we succeed or fail, we can't let the leopard's head take it easily. However, the strength of the leopard head is comparable to that of the bull head and the horse face, and the yin soldiers under it are also good, after Yin An and I were taken down by the leopard head again, our identities were also exposed again.
The leopard head was ecstatic, it knew that it might have done a great job, and its nemesis, the bull head and horse face, was most likely gone. This guy knocked us out.
When I woke up again, I was in the dim prison, the thick iron chains were tied to my and Yin An's limbs, our masks and armor had been removed, but the clothes were still there, and the waist-deep water prison was cold and bone-piercing, this water prison was huge, and there were several other prisoners locked next to me and Yin An, but it was not clear in the dark whether it was a person or a ghost.
No one came to visit the water prison for a long time, and the other prisoners were silent, all of them were hanging with their arms hung and shackled under their feet, and they didn't know whether they were alive or dead, and the silence was terrifying.
Yin An also woke up, he asked in a low voice if I was okay, and I replied that he was okay. We didn't know where we were, we struggled a few times, we didn't know if these heavy shackles were steel or not, we couldn't break free.
After waiting for a long time, there was a sound of footsteps overhead, someone opened the door of the prison from above and walked down, and the green torches in the prison were lit, and we saw clearly that it was a costume ghost wearing a Zhong Kui mask and a double-feathered official hat on his head, and there were leopard heads, tiger heads, deer heads, sheep heads and a group of yin ghosts around him.
"Lord Zhong, it was these two spies who wore masks with bull heads and horses and mixed in, and the younger one has found out that the two of them are still alive!" said to Zhong Kui with a minion on the head of the leopard.
"Well, you see, if any of the other prisoners are already dead, if so, they will be dragged out and burned, they haven't been to this water prison for a long time, most of them can't survive the erosion of the 'three yin and evil waters', and then they will be punished, it is estimated that they can't ask what the situation is, but these two newcomers, you should interrogate them carefully and see what they are. Zhong Kui said to the yin ghost on the side.
"Gotta order," the ghosts responded.
The other Yin soldiers took sticks to probe the prisoner's life and death by beating, and the leopard head and the deer head hugged Zhong Kui and walked in front of me and Yin An, and first the deer head challenged Yin An: "Boy, what are you, why did you break into the ghost cave, and what is the purpose." See this steel thorn, it's going to go between your nails, then the joints, and finally your eyes, like this. ”
As he spoke, a steel thorn was inserted into Yin An's fingernails, and the steel thorn with the thickness of a toothpick was deeply inserted into the phalanges along the nails, and Yin An, who was only in pain, gasped and rolled his eyes, and he couldn't even shout in pain.
"Say it or not, the taste of steel needles is very pleasant, right?" The deer head did not give Yin An a chance to rest, and seeing that Yin An was still tough, another steel thorn pierced into the second fingernail.
The leopard's head was even more insidious, it sneered twice and came to me, and I didn't see it take out any murder weapon, but a pair of claws began to swim up on my cheeks and neck, which made me sick and frightened, and the things like mules, donkeys and horses on its lower body seemed to have some kind of reaction!
The leopard head said gently: "Little beauty, I don't embarrass you, if you tell me your origins, I will never hurt you, and I can let you out after midnight tomorrow, okay." Whose command did you come here? ”
The problem is that we have not been instructed by others, and we have followed us all the way after accidentally encountering the ghosts, so I naturally have nothing to say.
Seeing that I was silent, the leopard's head was obviously a little impatient, and a sharp claw was pressed against my neck carotid artery, as if trying to scratch my veins immediately, and I could feel the blood sliding down my neck.
Seeing that Yin An's third finger was about to insert a steel thorn into it, a yin ghost wearing a pig's head mask hurriedly ran down from the top of the prison, and he didn't know what this pig's head and Zhong Kui whispered, Zhong Kui shouted loudly: "Damn, there are still fine works outside, and they have destroyed the eighteenth layer of hell! Quick, let it go here, you all go with me, if the wronged souls of the eighteenth layer of hell all run out, the scene will not be easy to clean up." ”
A group of yin ghosts hurriedly left the cage with Zhong Kui, and took away several prisoners who had already died in the prison. There were only two Yin soldiers left in the prison to guard it, and under the green torches, I saw the whole cage clearly.
At this moment, in the empty cage, in addition to Yin An and I being shackled, there was a woman with a pale face and long hair covering her face hanging not far from us, but the woman had no feet.
At the other end of the prison cell, there was also a man whose face was unclear and a tattered gray cloth robe. With the exception of these two men, the other prisoners had all died in this water prison.
The water dungeon infused with the "Three Yin Evil Water" began to slowly show its viciousness, and the legs gradually felt a fatal sharp pain, as if the sulfuric acid was burning their own flesh and skin, and this pain penetrated the heart and continued to extend. People can only hope that they can die completely in such a torture, and the only thing Yin An and I can do is to grit our teeth and endure the severe pain.
After Zhong Kui and the other Yin Ghost walked for a while, a loud bang came from above the prison, and the entire prison was shaken. Feeling that something was happening above the prison, the two Yin soldiers who were left to guard the prison hurriedly walked along the stairs to the prison, but as soon as they went up the two steps, they saw two electric lights split down from above, and the two Yin soldiers disappeared in an instant.
I saw a figure scurrying down from the prison, and it turned out to be a white rat again!
What's even more strange is that the lifeless long-robed guest at the far edge of the prison suddenly raised his head and let out an incredulous "Huh?"
The white mouse was obviously very urgent, and he said to us in a hurried tone: "After I break the shackles of this 'Shen Yin Iron', you will immediately run away with me, and the time is almost here, let's quickly escape from this ghost cave and dungeon." ”
I only saw that the white mouse escaped from the arms of a golden thing, and then blasted a few bright lightning bolts on the shackles of Yin An and me, although the violent beam split the black shackles, but the strong voltage almost blew me and Yin An into smoke.
Fortunately, under the help of the white mouse, Yin An and I were finally freed from the water prison, and just as we were about to escape from the prison with Yin An, the long-shirted guest who was locked in the depths of the prison suddenly shouted to the white mouse with all his strength: "Heavenly Thunder Golden Sword!"
