Chapter 74
Chapter 74
In the vast white mist, there was silence.
Everyone stared blankly at the place where the disciples of the ancient ling had been dragged down, turbid air bubbles bursting out and bursting, apart from that, there was nothing left, as if the huge mud-colored tentacle from before was just one of them. illusion.
"Fifth Junior Brother..." A voice full of grief and indignation broke the overly quiet scene, and I saw a Guling disciple with red eyes and clenched fists, looking extremely sad and angry.The rest of the people were awakened by this voice, and they all hurriedly looked at Si Gui, and hurriedly said: "Brother, we should go and save Fifth Junior Brother!" Even the disciple Dangboqiu, who has always been at odds with the disciples of Gu Ling, also looked at Si Gui earnestly. It's really hard not to be moved by the appearance of everyone sympathizing and agreeing.
"...Heh." Hearing this, Si Gui chuckled lightly, his twinkling peach blossom eyes casually glanced at the crowd, and asked softly: "Do you think that with the strength of us people, you can really rescue your junior brother?" What's more..." He paused meaningfully: "It's not certain how long your junior brother will live..."
Everyone's hearts were chilled. Originally, what he did before made everyone slightly dissatisfied, but now his contemptuous and casual attitude of not taking the lives of fellow disciples seriously hurt the hearts of others... ...Besides...there is that clear-cut phrase 'your junior'...
"Even if you are expelled from the palace gate!" Dangboqiu disciple walked out, looking at Si Ge angrily: "With a cold-blooded and cruel senior brother like you, I don't think Lingxiao Palace will stay!" The two Dangboqiu disciples no longer hesitated, and left angrily.
The previous Gu Ling disciple with a face of grief and indignation strode up to all the Gu Ling disciples, and said in a deep voice with great pain: "Brothers, how can we swallow our anger and allow others to bully our fellow disciples with such a bloody spirit? "The other Guling disciples were a little moved by what he said, but it was only a little bit moved. This person grew up with those five junior brothers and started together, so the affection is naturally extraordinary, but they usually don't get along with him. How to get in touch, how can you be persuaded by him at the cost of being expelled from the palace?At the moment, he was silent and looked at him silently.
The person who wanted to persuade the other sects slowly glanced at the other Guling disciples, and saw that they were still dressed in black, with the same cold and solemn expression on their faces, the same expression in normal times, and the same expression after the death of their fellow disciples ...without any intention of pain... The disciple of the ancient tomb suddenly laughed, but there was a hint of sadness in the laughter: "I can't think of it, the most bloody person in the ancient tomb that is rumored to be so cruel !" The words fell, water seeped out of the corner of his eyes, the disciple of Guling slowly swept across the silent crowd, and smiled sadly and angrily: "Do you think he won't treat you like the fifth junior brother?" The words in the words Who is that 'he' is self-evident, after finishing speaking, the disciple of Gu Ling didn't stop much, just said: "Since you don't want to save Fifth Junior Brother, then I will go alone!"
Three people left at once, and a female disciple of Dangboqiu died earlier. The mood of the remaining Guling disciples can be said to be miserable. Of course, no one can see them from the outside. Feeling silent for a while, Si Gui waved his hand, motioning to move on.
Although the disciples of Guling were unwilling, they could not, and continued walking according to Si Gui's wishes.As for Chu Jinran... From the moment the female disciple died, he has been silent, and no one can guess what he was thinking.
No one knows that Chu Jinran felt a moment of regret in his heart, but it was not regret that he risked his life to go into and out of danger with Si Gui, but regret that he did not make a decisive decision at that time, and together with other disciples bound Si Gui so that he could no longer give orders. Some unkind instructions came, causing casualties to two people... Thinking of this, Chu Jinran frowned slightly. Even though Senior Brother Si Gui had the Golden Core Stage cultivation, there were 19 of them in total. It is not impossible to subdue him.But what's the use of regretting what has happened?Just keep going.
Chu Jinran came back to his senses, but saw that the fog in front of him was gradually thinning, wondering how long they had been walking while he was thinking?It seemed that he was about to get out of this quagmire soon.
Although they were attacked by several swamp beasts along the way, everyone had already raised their vigilance secretly, so they were not injured. Seeing that the fog in front of them was gradually thinning, they breathed a sigh of relief for a while, but then they thought that the fog had dissipated What will be waiting for them in the future, they can't help but secretly raise their vigilance.
The white mist receded silently, revealing the moonlit sky. It turned out that it was already dark at this time. Under the cold moonlight, a wide flat land could be seen. Behind the flat land was a gloomy forest. The surroundings were silent. A lonely but peaceful picture.
Even so, no one let go of their vigilance, everyone secretly looked around defensively, and the sharp sword that was as sharp as the cold wind had already been drawn out.
Just at this time, a strong wind blew up, the swaying branches and leaves rattled, and the alarm bell sounded in everyone's hearts. The wind gradually dissipated, and at some point, a person appeared out of nowhere in the middle of the open space.
The man was wearing a black cloak, but the cloak was dilapidated, even so, it covered the man well, and the man was wearing a black veiled hat on top of the cloak, making it difficult to see his appearance clearly.But looking at his body, he seemed to be extremely thin.
"Si Gui..." the man in black said, his voice was hoarse and piercing, like the voice of a thin old man.
"Your Excellency is...?" Si Gui smiled politely, but after taking a closer look at that person, he stood there dumbfounded as if struck by lightning!
"Jie Jie..." The old man laughed a few times, the laughter was like the harsh sound of fingers scratching on the glass: "Si Gui, don't you remember me? I'm here to pick you up."
Si Gui remained silent, and after a while, he took a deep breath, as if he had just recovered, and asked, "What about the three people who came with me, but then left by themselves?"
The old man laughed strangely again, as if he was very proud: "You mean those three juniors? Don't you know what will happen to them? Tell Xiaohui to take someone to eat."
Si Gui's face was ashamed, he turned his head, and smiled bitterly at Chu Jinran: "I'm sorry, junior brother, it's all my fault..." Chu Jinran was already very confused when the old man mentioned Xiao Hui's name Now, I don't know what's going on, so I can't help but ask: "Senior brother, what is going on?"
Si Gui opened his mouth to speak, but the old man took the first step and said with a fierce smile: "If you want to explain, it's better to wait until I kill these young people!" Without even a chance to stop them, the remaining Guling disciples fell to the ground one after another. When Chu Jinran looked at them, he saw three black scratches on their necks that went deep into their necks. Their expressions were mixed with fear and puzzlement...their expressions Finally, it was fixed on that... The four Guling disciples died without a sound.
"These two people are more difficult to deal with..." The old man said to himself, and when he turned his head, under the cold moonlight, his dark eyes gleamed like a falcon, "It's a pity that there is only one person left..." The words fell However, Su Che beside Chu Jinran collapsed without warning!
Chu Jinran was shocked, and quickly went to check on Su Che's breath, seeing that his breathing was still steady, he felt relieved a little.
The old man did not know when he returned to the center of the open space, and said quietly: "If you think about Si Ge, you won't obediently go back with me, I have to do something..." Following the old man's voice, there was a strong wind in the night, like an injustice The ghosts were crying, and the sound of overlapping footsteps continued to sound. Under the clear moonlight, in the vast forest, countless zombies walked out screaming.
Chu Jinran looked carefully, but saw that the zombies were all villagers!It's just that their tall stomachs are gone, replaced by a black hole stained with blood, as if, as if something is struggling out of their stomachs...
Zombies waved their claws and approached.
Si Gui and Chu Jinran were back to back, so that there was no need to guard against the zombies behind them. Si Gui's voice was full of bitterness, and he said behind Chu Jinran's back, "I don't need to hide it from you anymore. Junior brother, can you Do you know the meaning of the word Si Gui?"
Chu Jinran was on guard, and suddenly heard what Si Gui said, and couldn't help thinking secretly, Si Gui?What could be hidden in these two words?He secretly chewed these two words, Sigui...Sigui...Sui has the same pronunciation as ghost...Yes, thinking of ghosts!
"You're not human, are you?" Chu Jinran said softly but firmly, "You're a ghost."
The ferocious zombies rushed to them in the clear moonlight.
Chu Jinran swung his sword and slashed without the slightest skill or mana, just slashing, just waving his sharp sword, those zombies would naturally die.
Si Gui sighed lightly: "Little Junior Brother, you are still so smart." This sentence is a tacit acquiescence of his identity.
Chu Jinran swiped his sword horizontally, and the zombie's head fell off. He couldn't tell what he felt in his heart, probably nothing but a little surprise: "What about Xiaohui?"
Now that his identity has been torn apart, Si Ge no longer hides his moves. He only saw his hands dancing lightly in the air, drawing graceful arcs one after another. Although his posture is elegant, the place where his white hands pass But there was a terrifying black air, Si Gui slightly curled the corners of his lips, and said: "Go." The black air flew into the crowd of zombies like flying snakes, biting and killing wantonly.Listening to Chu Jinran's question at this time, Si Gui's words contained an indescribable sense of melancholy: "Xiao Hui is not Xiao Hui. The real child has long since died, and it was replaced by a 'seed' from the Netherworld."
Chu Jinran gasped and said, "Seed?" While speaking, he killed a large group of zombies.
"Yes, seeds. The seeds of the netherworld are condensed from resentment. If they come to the human world, they will attach to a person and gradually devour the internal organs of that person as nutrients for their own growth. The body of the seed is very important wherever it is. It’s easy to guess, it’s in people’s stomachs... Before you saw that the stomachs of those villagers were swollen like hillocks, that’s how it is. Whenever there is danger, the seeds will burst out of their stomachs and escape in time. And I will know Xiaohui is so close, it can even be said to be the reason for his infatuation..." At this point, Si Gui paused: "It's just that I haven't seen such a resentful seed for a long time, and I was so happy that I was accidentally bewitched by the seed .”
There are more and more zombies, like a continuous wave. Under the moonlight, the blue and purple faces of the zombies are scary enough.
It stands to reason that the number of villagers in the village is limited, so the 'seeds' should also be limited, but Chu Jinran discovered that the zombies here seem to be endless...
