Chapter 115 114. Hanging Corpse Upside Down (Third Update)
"Ghost face? Wandering ghost?"
The Paper Immortal couldn't help but curse: "What on earth happened in this haunted house? First it was the Black Flower Spirit, then it was the Wandering Light Ghost. They are forcing us to death."
The wandering ghost is a fierce ghost in red clothes.
In the past, only cultivators at the third realm or above had the courage to enter the courtyard of the haunted house.
The ghosts that are transformed from the third realm cultivators after being eroded by fire are born evil spirits. Especially in the environment of a haunted house, the strength they can exert is far greater than that of ordinary evil spirits.
Xu Qing's heart was pounding like thunder and he felt a chill down his spine.
His eyes quickly swept across the hideous ghost faces that peeked out from the walls on both sides——
The ghost has three eyes, red skin, and fangs in its mouth. At this time, the ghost's mouth is wide open, and a figure in red clothes is coming to the courtyard through the ghost's mouth.
As soon as the wandering ghost appeared, the strong yin energy began to grow wildly in the courtyard like weeds, and a bone-chilling cold wind blew past.
The third level evil ghost! And the most powerful third level evil ghost!
Xu Qing's heartstrings tensed.
According to a rough estimate, the number of red-clothed evil spirits that appeared should be no less than thirty, which is far less than the number of black flower spirits and stepping shadow Gu.
But these red-clothed ghosts were not the black flower spirits he had dealt with before. If he had to deal with any one of them, he would have to go all out.
"They were lured here by those Shadow-Treading Gu!" Old man Fang in the coffin reacted with a grim look in his eyes.
Who is it?
Who set this trap?
No matter how suitable the Shadow-Stepping Gu is for this place, it is not something that belongs in a haunted house, and although it looks weird, it is still a kind of living creature.
The courtyard is different from the front yard. Once a large amount of foreign aura appears, it will definitely attract ghosts wandering deep in the house.
Moreover, the blood and death caused by the killing here will also attract the red-clothed ghost.
The guy who set up the Shadow-Treading Gu simply took advantage of the environment here and a special kind of poisonous insect to pry open the mechanism of the haunted house and force them into a dead end.
but,
Why would the other party do this? What is the significance of doing this?
Old Man Fang thought of the two people who entered the atrium and came out earlier before today. He also thought of the two people who entered the atrium at the beginning of today. The haunted house had changed shortly after those two people entered the atrium today.
Could this be a trap set for those two people today?
Old Man Fang sighed secretly, the future is unpredictable.
When the city gate catches fire, the fish in the pond will be affected. Even if you have cultivated to the fourth level, if you do not achieve great supernatural powers, you will ultimately be an ant.
Old Man Fang quickly cut off this thought and strengthened his resolve. Now, all he thought about, did and did were just two words:
Please live!
"What should we do?" Mo Qingxue and Zhao Yinxi came to Xu Qing.
Xu Qing moved his injured arm.
With the help of the Qi Healing Talisman, his arm was almost recovered.
At the same time, after the breakthrough, the snake gall in his body no longer needed Liujia to suppress it all the time, and he could completely let go and fight.
"We may not be able to stay in the courtyard any longer." Xu Qing said in a deep voice: "The exact number of these red-clothed ghosts is unknown, but it is definitely not small."
"Besides, even if we can get rid of these red-robed ghosts, our plan to stay in the courtyard until dawn will not be possible."
"The only solution now is to go deeper into the haunted house and join up with that Buddhist disciple and Captain Luo." Xu Qing raised his eyes and looked towards the corridor on the right side of the lobby that led to deeper into the haunted house.
Through the Eye of God, one can see that the "Qi" and "causality lines" of the white-robed Buddhist and Constable Luo are flowing over there.
The body of Patriarch Tao was also in that direction.
Xu Qing once thought that what he saw with the help of the Divine Eye was the underlying world where “Qi” flowed after the tangible matter was stripped away.
But after experiencing the method of tracing the cause and effect performed by the white-robed Buddhist, he realized that the lower world not only had the "qi" of all things flowing, but also the cause and effect line. On the other side, the figure of the red-robed ghost slowly walked out of the ghost face, and the invisible malice spread, causing the people who were dealing with the stepping shadow Gu and could pay attention to these evil ghosts to be shocked.
It's very tricky! It's very troublesome!
This was the first time that everyone had reached the same consensus.
"Zhao Yinxi, how long can your Fire Phoenix last?" Xu Qing asked.
"I don't know." Zhao Yinxi replied: "The talisman given by the master is slightly different from other talismans. It can last until the energy contained in the talisman is exhausted."
"Very good." Xu Qing nodded. "Let's run to the right corridor. Zhao Yinxi, you lead the way. Mo Qingxue, you pick up the corpse oil lanterns on the ground. I'll cover you."
Xu Qing summoned the Jiazi God again.
After those red-clothed ghosts came out of the ghost mouth, they began to attack the people and shadow-stepping Gu in the courtyard.
The Red-Clothed Wandering Ghost has the ability to move freely wherever the firelight illuminates, which is similar to the Shadow-Treading Ghost's ability to move through shadows.
Therefore, they can easily catch those Shadow-Treading Gu, squeeze them in their palms and explode them into a ball of black gas.
The number of Shadow-Treading Gu in the courtyard dropped rapidly in a very short period of time, and the remaining ones scattered and escaped into the shadows.
Gu worms are insects. Without the control of a Gu Master, hunting and seeking benefits and avoiding harm are also their nature and instinct.
Without the restraint of the Shadow-Stepping Gu, the Red-Clothed Wandering Ghost cast its empty and filthy gazes at the living people present.
"go!"
Xu Qing shouted loudly.
The two Dharma images took a step forward, and their footsteps on the ground were like thunder.
It was like a lantern swaying in the wind, a flame flickered, and six red-clothed ghosts suddenly appeared around Xu Qing and the other two.
"Don't stop, rush forward!"
Zhao Yinxi and Mo Qingxue gritted their teeth and chose to believe Xu Qing. They ignored the attacking ghost and picked up the corpse oil lantern on the ground and rushed into the lobby.
Xu Qing commanded the Jiazi God and the Dingchou God to meet the six red-clothed wandering ghosts.
The Jiazi God, who was possessed by thunder, waved the long-handled heavy axe. The lightning flashed like a flying dragon or snake, and the three-headed red-clothed ghost covered by the axe shadow was instantly cut in two.
The Ruyi trident in the hand of Ding Chou God pointed in all directions, and twelve cold rays of light shot out as fast as lightning, and the sharp sound pierced the eardrums.
The next moment, three holes surrounded by flames appeared on the chest of the other three red-clothed ghosts.
Lightning was moving, flames were smoldering, and the red blood on the six red-clothed ghosts was flowing towards the wound, fighting against the lightning and flames.
When the blood-red light on the clothes was largely consumed, revealing the original color of the clothes, the lifeless pupils on the ghost's face suddenly focused.
The stiff face became lively, revealing an expression of surprise and surprise.
"save"
However, under the light of the fire, the corrosive force was endless, and the recovery of consciousness lasted only a short moment, and then blood covered his clothes again, and the eerie ghost aura burst out again.
Are these people who have been transformed into red-clothed wandering ghosts still alive?
Xu Qing's eyes narrowed.
But he was unable to take care of himself at the moment, so how could he have the time to save others?
What made him feel even more troubled was that it seemed that as long as he stayed within the range of the flames, these red-clothed ghosts would be able to be replenished continuously!
the other side.
After overcoming numerous obstacles, the Buddhist monk in white and Captain Luo finally found the body of the old master Tao.
"Hanging corpse upside down?"
Captain Luo looked at the scene before him and murmured with a serious expression.
