I was attacked by the evil general
Chapter 8
Kong Xiangyu also found it strange that an ordinary burial jade fan turned into what it is now.Like a demon or an evil, very mysterious and unusual.
Just at this time, those masked ghosts crowded the door made a commotion, and many of them broke through the encirclement and rushed into the restaurant.
Jin Bao was so anxious that the hair on the dragon's tail was going to explode, he grabbed Kong Xiangyu's collar and said, "Forget about this, there is a Hanming fan, so let's use it!"
This time it was Kong Xiangyu's turn to be anxious, he said: "How to use it? Is there any book explaining it for me to read?"
Jin Bao rolled his eyes angrily on the spot.
"You think it's a new product from the store, who will explain it to you! It turns out to be a fan, so fan it!"
After speaking, he saw more than a dozen masked ghosts with stiff limbs, climbing towards him like spiders.
He couldn't care less now, so he pinched the Hanming fan and slapped the masked ghosts hard.
Suddenly, there was a strong wind in the restaurant, wisps of red mist scattered from the cold fan, wrapping all those masked ghosts like cocoons.
Kong Xiangyu began to hold the Hanming fan with his fingers, every meridian was swelled and clamored, his blood was surging, and his eyes were covered with a layer of red light.The hostility in my heart soared, and I actually felt a lot of tyrannical killing.
It seemed that the only way to calm down the restlessness in his heart was to completely strangle the things in front of him.
He curled his lips into a smile, full of evil spirits, looked at the dozen or so red blood cocoons in the lobby, and said sharply: "Crush."
The blood cocoon seemed to be alive, wriggling and shrinking, and exploded in the blink of an eye, breaking into residue.
The red light bloodshot condensed, and rushed towards the group of masked ghosts blocking the door at a stronger speed.
In the dark and gloomy black market, the busiest restaurant suddenly rose on the ground, with two feet sticking out from under the building.
The restaurant was jolted for a while, as if it had a fishbone stuck in its throat, and trampled on several houses along the way.The last sneeze released a figure, then coughed twice, and vomited a bunch of red blood on the ground.
It shook its body twice violently, and ran away in a panic.
Kong Xiangyu was thrown onto the street, a piece of debris was stirred up on the ground, and his body was entwined with red blood.After he was safe and sound, he gradually disappeared.The jade fan in his hand also returned to normal, and unexpectedly returned to its previous appearance.
"Bah, pah!"
There was too much dust from the fall just now, and now my mouth is full of that bitter taste.Just as he was about to get up and look up, a four-legged snake hit him head-on, throwing him back into the pit.
Jin Bao's limbs were limp and dizzy, and it took him a long time to slowly get up.Said to Kong Xiangyu: "I am so exhausted, I have never met such a difficult ancestor like you."
Kong Xiangyu raised his hand to take Jin Bao off his face, rubbed the back of his head that was sore, and said helplessly, "Didn't you ask me to slap you?"
His head hurt so badly, when he used the fan just now, he thought his body was going to be torn apart.With tyranny in his eyes, he just wants to destroy everything in front of him.
It seems that this fan is really not a good thing, it is better to ask about it when you have time some other day.
He crawled out of the pit with pain all over his body, but before he could stand still, he saw dozens of Sansha Evil standing two meters away.At this moment, it is crawling on the ground, ready to explode.
Jin Bao jumped on his head a few times, grabbed a few strands of hair and cursed: "Die, why are you still standing there! Run!"
Kong Xiangyu slapped the Hanming fan a few times, and found that the broken fan had returned to normal.Quickly put the fan back into the clothes, and ran away.
Those three evil spirits were so evil that they disappeared directly and turned into a black shadow sticking to the ground, following like a shadow on the streets of the black market, the speed was definitely much faster than Kong Xiangyu's two legs.
In the blink of an eye, he was completely surrounded.
What was even more terrible was the masked ghosts in the black market, one by one baring their teeth and claws, rushing towards him viciously.
Kong Xiangyu's heart was beating like a drum, and he said urgently: "Jin Bao, aren't you the river god! Can't there be flooding and bursting dikes?"
Jin Bao's dragon scales trembled from head to toe, and cursed: "Little ancestor, where do you think this is? This is a black market! I'm still flooded and broke the embankment. It's lucky that this place doesn't break the embankment for me." !"
Kong Xiangyu couldn't help but said in his heart: "What use does the River Breaker want from you!"
However, right now is a critical moment, the Hanming Fan fails, and Jin Bao can't use his mana, he is just an ordinary person, he can only punch and kick at most, so it is possible that he is really going to die here!
Ghosts are like ghosts, and a hundred ghosts attack.
Suddenly, there was a shocking explosion at the end of the black market street.
The ghosts froze for a moment, then looked back, only to see a white mist of light and shadow sweeping towards them like evil spirits from hell.Wherever the white mist went, there were ghostly howls, and even the houses on both sides of the street were not spared, and all were destroyed.
The ghosts surrounding Kong Xiangyu hesitated for a moment, seemed a little annoyed, and finally had to withdraw their hands quietly, and fled in all directions as if fleeing for their lives.
Jin Bao slapped the dragon's claw and said excitedly, "It's Master Wei!"
Kong Xiangyu: "Weize?"
Explosions sounded one after another, and the weak and invisible white mist was like thousands of sharp knives, invisible and tangible, even the adamantine rock could cut iron like mud.
And between the sharp blades of the white mist, a white figure quickly shuttled back and forth.This person is extremely hostile, even more frightening than that hell ghost.
Wei Ze stepped on the white mist, grabbed the two panicked masked ghosts with his bare hands, squeezed his five fingers together, and crushed all the skeletons under the masks.
The long hair is slightly curly, flying with the white mist.In the blink of an eye, hundreds of masked ghosts had been strangled, and those three-shake evil spirits hidden on the ground were also blasted and destroyed together with the ground of the house.
Some evil spirits were strangled by the boy in the white mist before they could scream.
Kong Xiangyu shuddered suddenly, this man had a handsome face, and usually spoke softly and friendlyly, how could he be so vicious with his hands.
Seriously complied with that sentence, ghosts cannot be judged by their appearance!
The hand that usually held him tenderly was able to crush the cap of the sky with his bare hands, without even blinking.The terrifying masked ghost was like tofu in his hands, so it was effortless.
Explosions sounded one after another, but in the blink of an eye, Wei Ze leveled the entire black market, not to mention ghosts, there was not even a healthy brick left.
Looking around, only the piece of land under Kong Xiangyu's feet can be regarded as a pure land.
Kong Xiangyu took a trembling step back, and an evil ghost mask fell at his feet.Afterwards, a black shadow flinched and stretched out a ghostly hand from the ground, trying to get the cracked mask in fear.
After touching it twice, I felt something was wrong, so I tapped Kong Xiangyu's instep with trembling fingertips, indicating if he could move his foot away and stepped on his face.
Kong Xiangyu raised his feet hastily, Xu Shi raised his hands and feet so that the masked ghost smelled the breath of a living person, and slowly stood up from the ground.He straightened the knocked down mask, trying to frighten him with his fangs and claws.
With Wei Ze, Jin Bao is now more courageous than the sky.He used the dragon claws to make a demon-eating movement, then opened the corner of his mouth and said, "Slightly slightly..."
The masked ghost suddenly felt irritable as if being teased by a child. Although he was wearing a mask, Kong Xiangyu could clearly feel the angry look of this thing.
The masked ghost imitated Jin Bao's movements, and pressed its two ghost claws against the corners of the mouth that could not be moved on the mask, making a muffled sound.
Who would have thought that before the slight sound was finished, the head was slapped across the air, and even the masked ghost flew straight away.
Kong Xiangyu: "..."
Jinbao: "..."
Wei Ze held the ghost-killing palm and turned it around twice, and after listening carefully, he could still hear the sound of bones sliding.The young man shook the dust off his clothes, turned his head and smiled slightly at Kong Xiangyu, and said, "It's hard to find the entrance, I'm late."
Kong Xiangyu calmed down for a moment, and thanked him.
After a while, a luxury sedan arrived at the end of the dilapidated ghost market. Zong Yanqiu was very leisurely when the sedan was driven up.
The carriage stopped in front of the two and one dragon, and Zong Yanqiu got out of the sedan chair like a princess.Looking around, he judged: "Master Ghost King is really good at it, you will destroy a ghost market as soon as you come. This is all right, if the young master dares to come out, I am afraid that the sun will have to rise from the west."
Wei Ze looked indifferent, and said, "The big deal is to dismantle a few more pieces."
The implication is that all the places where the young master can hide are to be demolished.
Kong Xiangyu wiped the cold sweat off his brow with his hand, and said with shame: "Why don't we go out first?"
Who would have thought that Zong Yanqiu spread his hands and said: "How can I get out? The entrance was slapped by Lord Ghost King. The only way now is to find another way."
Kong Xiangyu looked around at the ghost market that had been destroyed beyond recognition, and couldn't help but ask, "Then what is the other way?"
Zong Yanqiu pointed to a collapsed red bridge and said, "Look."
Kong Xiangyu squinted his eyes and took a closer look. The bridge was a good one, but it was broken.
Then I heard Zong Yanqiu say: "Next."
Under the broken bridge, the water surface is turbulent, and there is a different scene under the dark night and wind.The red bridge is gorgeous, with hundreds of lights in full bloom, and countless ghosts and ghosts walking on the street.
Under the water of this lake is another world, just like a gossip mirror, with one scene and two states.
It's just that the previous black market was lifeless and lifeless, while the underwater ghost market was bustling.But ghosts are still those ghosts, and houses are still those houses.
Kong Xiangyu said: "There is an identical black market?"
Zong Yanqiu stroked a strand of hair on the side of his ear with his orchid finger, and said: "It's a black market, so how can there be only one? It's all about selling things that are not allowed in the world. Now that the ghost king is in charge, if there is only one, it will be punished." Wouldn’t it be gone if I copied it?”
Wei Ze, who was silent for a long time, finally couldn't help but said, "From what you say, it seems a pity?"
Who would have thought that Zong Yanqiu would say brazenly: "Of course it's a pity, if it wasn't for the black market doing these tricks, why would you give me extra money?"
Kong Xiangyu covered his face with a slap, he was a living person, he couldn't accept it.It is still a good thing that there are more people who die in vain.
Wei Ze was speechless, took Kong Xiangyu's hand, and protected him by his side.Said to Jin Bao: "Jin Bao, open the water and go to the next black market."
Who would have thought that Zong Yanqiu immediately raised his hand to stop him, he said: "Don't, don't, we are too hostile, you will be discovered when you open the water. Those ghosts in the black market are very smart. If you get rid of your hostility, the ghost Not a single one in sight."
Then he took out three masks from the box and said, "I bought this mask with a lot of money, so be careful when using it. It doesn't matter whether it's a living person or a ghost, if you wear it, you can hide your breath. It’s just that you can’t take off the mask halfway, if you take it off, you will be exposed.”
Kong Xiangyu was about to take the mask, but Wei Ze snatched it away with his bare hands. He wiped it several times with his white shirt before handing it over again.
It seems really disgusting.
After one of the two ghosts put on a mask, he turned over and entered another ghost market.
Jin Baolong was too small to wear the mask, so he had to hide it in the silver bracelet.
Having a ghost mask is indeed much more convenient, and no one notices that Kong Xiangyu is in the crowd of ghosts.What's more, Wei Ze was protecting him beside him, so he felt inexplicably at ease.No matter how many unthinkable things happened on that street, he didn't think it was too scary.
The ghost world is not like the folks. If the folks want to find someone, they can post a missing person order at worst.However, this black market is not under the jurisdiction of Wei Ze, so it is quite difficult to find it.
One advantage of doing dirty work on the black market is absolute secrecy.Whatever you do, you can work hard for you if you give money.If you ask wantonly, you will definitely be suspicious. After thinking about it, I still feel that it is more appropriate to use the money directly.
It's just the rules in the black market. They laymen don't understand, and they don't know where to start for a while.
It was definitely not an accident that Kong Xiangyu was caught in the black market. The evil spirit of Sansha had a clear goal, which was to take his life.
Who buys murder?Why did the young master drown in the Jinbao River in Hongwu County?How could his silver bracelet appear in the hands of the young master?What's going on here?
