The most troublesome thing at the bottom of the lake is not the ghost cabinet that keeps appearing next to Yang Jian.
Obviously, the black coffin is the most dangerous existence.
Through the open corner of the coffin lid, Yang Jian even felt a gaze peering at him.
This was not an illusion. That gaze had been there just now. He could not feel wrong. There was indeed something staring at him in the coffin.
"The source of the ghost lake, Li Gui, is suspected to be in this black coffin." At this moment, the coldness and numbness in Yang Jian's body had dissipated a lot.
He feels like he can move almost normally now.
But that's all. He can't use more supernatural powers. I don't know if it's due to the surrounding lake or something wrong with himself. In short, he is now restricted.
It is precisely because of this that Yang Jian did not approach the black coffin at the first time, but used wish stickers and ghost cabinets to save A Hong.
"Can I deal with the ghost in the coffin now?" He was hesitating at the moment.
I don't have much confidence in my heart.
But there is no need to despair, because Yang Jian still has coffin nails and hatchets in his hands. Even if the supernatural being is restricted, he still has the capital to fight against any supernatural being.
"But I feel that my body is recovering. Should I wait a little longer, or should I try to take action now?" Yang Jian tightened his grip on the cracked spear in his hand.
He could feel that his condition was slowly recovering.
The influence of Ghost Lake on him is constantly weakening.
It seems that Yang Jian is adapting to the environment here.
This situation is a bit contrary to common sense, because Li Jun and Cao Yang are still soaked in the lake water and unable to move. He is also a ghost controller. Logically speaking, he should have the same fate as them, but he became a special case.
This is no accident.
It must be related to the situation that happened to me on the black boat before.
"We can't rush. Since my condition is getting better, I should wait a little longer. The fact that the ghost hasn't attacked me now means I'm still safe. And the coffin has been in the lake for so long. I'll wait a little longer."
It’s not a big problem when I think about it.”
After careful consideration, Yang Jian chose to let himself get used to it a little longer before taking action.
But his ghost eyes were still staring at the open corner of the coffin.
But under this kind of peek, Yang Jian gradually discovered that the things in the coffin seemed to be familiar to him, and there were some unclear connections.
This feeling is very strange.
In addition, as time goes by, this feeling becomes stronger.
While he was peeping at the evil ghost, it seemed that the evil ghost in the coffin was also peeping at him.
Although Yang Jian couldn't see clearly what was going on inside through the corner of the open coffin, he could feel the strange look inside the coffin.
However, what he didn't know was.
While he was wary of the black coffin and waiting for his body to recover, the entire ghost lake was unconsciously undergoing some strange changes.
Around Yang Jian, invisible currents seemed to appear in the lake. These currents stirred the dead lake water, causing the corpses soaked in the lake to sway. These corpses gradually began to float,
And the fluttering directions are surprisingly consistent.
They all approached Yang Jian.
However, not all corpses are like this. Most of the corpses are still floating quietly in the water, without moving.
The emergence of this situation means that Yang Jian is unknowingly affecting the operation of the entire ghost lake and breaking some long-term balance.
at the same time.
"Wow!"
A sound of water breaking sounded on the lake, and a hand that was soaked in lake water and turned white suddenly popped out from the depths of the dim lake water.
The water ripples.
A paper boat floating on the water rippled violently at this moment.
But that white palm grasped the paper boat correctly, as if grasping a life-saving straw.
The paper boat swayed, but strangely, the small paper boat did not sink.
next moment.
Liu San's head was knocked out of the water. He was wet all over, as if he had been soaked for a long time. However, when he emerged from the water, he didn't take a big breath of fresh air. He didn't even take a breath. His whole face was pale.
His expression changed, but there was a bit of happiness in his eyes.
"Sure enough, just as I guessed, the fact that this paper boat can float up from the depths of the ghost lake proves that the ghost lake cannot swallow it. The fact that it can float on the lake shows that this paper boat does not rely on buoyancy, but on buoyancy.
It’s an indescribable supernatural power.”
"It looks like a paper boat, but in fact, in terms of carrying capacity, it may be better than that small black wooden boat."
Liu San held the paper boat with one hand. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't push the paper boat into the water.
This paper boat is more than enough to carry his weight.
Therefore, he was saved and was not in danger of sinking to the bottom of the lake for the time being.
But the situation is still not optimistic, because Liu San still has to find a way to leave here. He doesn't plan to float on this lake for the rest of his life, or stay in this strange place.
"Can you try to swim to shore?"
Liu San looked not far away.
The ghost lake is not endless, it also has an end, and it is not very far away from you. If you rely on a paper boat to swim for a while, you may be able to get ashore and escape from the ghost lake.
Just do what you do.
Liu San started paddling.
Relying on the buoyancy of a paper boat, he tried to swim ashore in the clumsiest way possible.
Although this method may not necessarily work, it is also the best method he can think of at present. After all, his body is still soaked in the lake water. Under this situation, his own supernatural powers have been greatly interfered with and suppressed. Even if
Even if there are means, there is no way to use them.
But at this moment, the changes in Ghost Lake are getting bigger and bigger. Although Ghost Lake is still peaceful, it is different outside.
Outside Taiping Ancient Town.
Feng Quan was tapping the grave with a shovel at the moment. Out of habit, he built a grave for these two innocent dead people, leaving some traces for easy identification later. After all, he was not a murderer, and he did not bury the corpses to destroy the traces.
, so there is nothing to feel guilty about.
"Oh no."
However, at this moment, Boss Liu, who was squatting aside and smoking, stood up at some point. He looked into the distance and frowned deeply.
"What's wrong?" Feng Quan also followed his gaze.
It was a river, and the river extended toward Zhongzhou City. Although it was night, the outline of the city could be vaguely seen in the distance.
"That thing is back." Boss Liu said solemnly.
Feng Quan didn't have ghost eyes and couldn't peek into things very far away. He still asked: "What on earth are you talking about?"
"The ghost lake is the ghost lake you call it. It has escaped from its trap and will appear soon."
Boss Liu realized something and immediately ran towards Taiping Ancient Town: "If that ghost lake appears, Taiping Ancient Town will definitely be flooded. No, I have to make preparations quickly..."
He runs very fast.
I could only hear a series of rapid footsteps echoing, and within a few moments, my body had disappeared into the dark night, and I could never be found again.
"Escape from Ghost Lake? Are you going to show up?" Feng Quan was not stupid. He immediately realized something and looked in the same direction.
next moment.
The surrounding thick fog gradually began to rise, and Feng Quan immediately quickly approached the direction where the suspected ghost lake appeared.
There is no doubt that when this happened, Yang Jian, Li Jun and others must have done something to cause a special phenomenon. He had to go and see.
But on the other side.
Boss Liu just returned to Taiping Ancient Town. He was stopped before he could cross the old archway and enter the old residential area of Taiping Ancient Town.
The person who stopped him was the old man who was guarding the ancestral hall. He was holding a flickering oil lamp and his pale eyes were moving restlessly. He stood motionless in the middle of the old bluestone road, as if he was waiting for someone here.
"Something happened." Boss Liu, who was also carrying an oil lamp, said straight to the point.
"I know, wait for the others." The one-eyed old man said slowly, as if he already knew the situation outside.
soon.
A woman of about fifty walked out of an alley near the ancient town. This woman looked very old and was dressed in an old-fashioned style, which seemed a bit out of tune with modern society. She also held an oil lamp in her hand.
"As expected, something went wrong if people outside were allowed to act recklessly. Those people should have been drowned in the river before. Although problems would have arisen sooner or later, it could delay some time, right? Now that I move around the people at home,
Who will wash the clothes?”
The woman spoke, and her voice was not only hoarse, but her words were also very vicious.
The one-eyed old man snorted softly and seemed very dissatisfied: "None of the ghost controllers outside can move. This is the rule."
"People of the previous generation have died, so why are they still adhering to those broken rules?" the woman sneered, not bored.
"Rules are rules. Taiping Ancient Town lives by the rules. Without rules, there would be no Taiping Town." The one-eyed old man did not speak, but looked gloomy.
Boss Liu changed the subject at this moment and asked: "Just the three of us?"
"There is one more." the one-eyed old man said.
He had just finished speaking. On the bluestone road behind him, a tall man with no facial features appeared strangely and walked towards this side step by step. He was still unable to speak and could only make gestures in the air with his hands.
I wrote a few words: "I'm coming."
"It took a long time to gather four people. Fifteen years ago, I could have easily pulled out a man in his twenties. Sure enough, all the men in the town were dead. I shouldn't have married here in the first place. It caused my whole life
God is keeping us a widow." The woman's tone was still vicious.
"Let's go," the one-eyed old man said coldly.
His position seems to be not simple, he has decision-making power,
As soon as he opened his mouth, the woman followed him obediently no matter how reluctant she was.
Four people walked in the same direction.
The place they want to go is in the direction of Zhongzhou City, and on the outskirts of the city is the place where the ghost lake corresponds to reality.
Originally there was nothing in that area, just a barren wasteland with no weeds.
but now.
A hazy and cold lake is appearing on the ground, and it is getting clearer. The surrounding area has even begun to become moist.
