Chapter 259 Glutinous rice to exorcise ghosts
Scarface and Mantis were the only two people left on the opposite platform.
Seeing the black shadow crawling towards him, Scarface was so frightened that he immediately stepped onto the chain bridge. As a result, as soon as he stepped on it, the chain bridge began to shake violently.
Before he could reach the middle, Master Zhou immediately yelled at Scarface and told Scarface to get down. Scarface hesitated for a moment and finally stepped back from the chain bridge.
Compared to Scarface, Mantis seemed much calmer. She turned around and took out her engineering shovel and looked warily at the black figure who had climbed onto the platform.
However, she seemed to have forgotten that the engineer shovel could not cause any harm to these ghosts.
At this time, Hu Jiu had already stepped onto the opposite platform. When he turned around and saw those ghosts, he hurriedly shouted: "Second Master, quickly throw your Faqiu Seal to them."
But Mr. Zhou didn't seem to hear it. He didn't know whether he was afraid that Faqiu Yin would accidentally fall off the cliff, or he simply didn't want to hand Faqiu Yin into other people's hands.
Seeing that Master Zhou had no reaction, Hu Jiu had no choice but to shout to the other side: "Try throwing glutinous rice on those ghosts. It should work."
Hearing Hu Jiu's words, Mantis was the first to react. She took off her backpack and took out a pierced cloth bag, which contained glutinous rice.
The mantis opened the bag, took out a handful of glutinous rice, and threw it at the shadow that had crawled to his feet.
With a "Zila" sound, the black shadow on the ground shook, and then quickly retreated, and the glutinous rice scattered on the black shadow also turned black.
However, Nuomi can only dispel ghosts and cannot cause fatal damage to them, so this method can only delay it for a while.
Seeing that the glutinous rice was really effective, Scarface, belatedly, also took out the bag containing the glutinous rice from his backpack.
But because he was too afraid of these black shadows, every time he scattered the glutinous rice, he grabbed a big handful. In the end, after only scattering it a few times, there was nothing left in his bag of glutinous rice.
"You two can come over here!"
Mr. Tuesday, who had just passed the chain bridge, quickly called to Mantis and Scarface to go over.
At this time, Mantis still had half a bag of glutinous rice left. If she gave part of the glutinous rice to Scarface, and then the two of them cooperated, they might both be able to cross the cable bridge safely.
But when he heard that Mr. Zhou had already stepped off the chain bridge, Scarface walked directly onto the chain bridge without caring about anything, leaving Mantis alone on the platform.
Mantis obviously didn't expect Scarface to be so shameless. By the time she reacted, Scarface had already walked some distance away.
She had no choice but to scatter the glutinous rice while retreating. When she reached the edge of the cliff, she hung the glutinous rice bag on her belt, then turned around and walked onto the chain bridge.
Although Mantis moved very lightly, unfortunately, Scarface, who was walking in front, moved too much, which directly caused the chain bridge to swing back and forth like a swing, making it difficult for Mantis to even stand still, let alone walk away.
It's a bit strenuous.
At this time, the four ghosts had gathered in front of the chain bridge. They originally thought that the chain bridge was so thin that they, like shadows, could not pass through it.
What I didn't expect was that these ghost figures slowly rose from the ground, and then climbed up the chain bridge as nimbly as four black monkeys.
Seeing this scene, the mantis simply stopped. She grabbed the iron rope with one hand, and grabbed a handful of glutinous rice with the other, and then stared at the ghost figure that was quickly crawling towards her.
The ghost running at the front jumped up and pounced when it was two or three meters away. The mantis saw the right moment and threw out a third of the glutinous rice in his hand.
The ghost figure hit by the glutinous rice twitched in mid-air, and then fell directly off the cliff.
Immediately afterwards, the second and third ghosts rushed over one after another. The mantis directly threw the remaining glutinous rice in his hand horizontally. The two ghosts also fell after being hit by the glutinous rice.
But when the last ghost swooped forward, the mantis had no glutinous rice in his hand, and he had no time to reach into the bag to get it.
In desperation, she grabbed the same iron rope with both hands, then kicked off her feet, threw her body backwards, and swung while holding on to the iron rope as if she were playing on a horizontal bar. The ghostly figure passed her directly.
The ghostly figure fell on the iron rope, then turned around and prepared to attack again, but by this time the mantis had already swung back.
She quickly grabbed the last bit of glutinous rice in the bag and threw it out when the ghost jumped up, thus directly eliminating the last ghost.
Seeing the mantis's flowing movements, Mo Shouchen couldn't help but clap his hands and cheer. It seemed that this woman was not only good at explosives, but also had first-rate kung fu.
But just when Mo Shouchen was lamenting the gap between himself and Mantis, he suddenly found another ghost crawling out of the blasted hole on the opposite side.
Although the ghosts all looked the same, he was sure that this was the ghost that had been attached to Scarface before.
"Be careful, another one is coming!" Mo Shouchen warned loudly.
But Mantis had just used up the last bit of glutinous rice, so she could only speed up. As long as she could cross the chain bridge before the ghost crawled over, she would be safe.
Fortunately, Scarface had already stepped onto the platform at this time, the chain bridge no longer shook violently, and Mantis' delivery was much faster than before.
But she is fast, and Ghost is even faster!
Because it has no weight, the ghost can jump directly on the iron rope.
After only a few jumps, it had already caught up with the mantis.
At this time, the mantis was less than 10 meters away from the platform. Hu Jiu grabbed a handful of glutinous rice and prepared to catch it, but because the glutinous rice was too light, he couldn't throw it that far.
It was definitely too late to walk across the chain bridge now, so Mantis immediately let go of his hands, and then stepped forward on the chain.
But the iron chain was soft and she couldn't maintain her balance at all, so she only took two or three steps and fell directly from the iron chain bridge.
But at the same time as she fell, she stretched her right hand forward, turned her wrist upward, and a retractable flying dragon claw shot out from the cuff, with a rope attached behind it.
The flying dragon claw that was shot out opened and hooked onto the cliff on the opposite side. The mantis grabbed the rope and hung directly on the cliff.
Seeing such a thrilling operation, Mo Shouchen and others broke out in a cold sweat, or the fourth child reacted faster. He picked up a safety rope and went down the edge of the cliff, intending to let Mantis grab the rope and pull her.
Come up.
But just when the mantis was about to grab the rope, the ghost on the chain bridge jumped directly towards her.
The mantis hanging on the cliff quickly climbed onto the cliff with his feet and swung up to avoid the attack of the ghost.
But the ghost jumped to the cliff and then turned around and pounced back. This time, the mantis in mid-air had no way to avoid it and could only watch the ghost pounce on him.
