Chapter 1289 Bringing the Soul of the Dead Forward
Liu Qi and Xiao Yang were unable to cut off their inner worries and were confused by the souls wandering on the road. They wanted to take a gamble and try to take away one of the souls, and then confirm the rumors here to see if they could really resurrect it. .
Is it really that easy to take away the souls of the dead?
You must know that the most terrifying thing in the supernatural world is to reverse life and death and resurrect the dead.
Liu Qi and Xiao Yang, who were more concerned about the overall situation before, have now completely forgotten about reuniting with Yang Jian and saving the residents of Baishui Town.
The two people joined forces and took a middle-aged man with a gray face and a cold body, and turned back without looking back.
This dead soul that looked like a middle-aged man showed no resistance and allowed Liu Qi to pull him forward like a walking corpse. It did not turn into a ghost to attack Liu Qi, nor did it attract other terrors.
Everything seems to be going well.
Even the other dead souls involuntarily made way for Liu Qi and Xiao Yang to leave.
It seems that as long as you continue along the road ahead, everything will be promising.
However, although Henry Zhang was impulsive at the moment, his mind was still calm. He understood that it was not easy to take the souls away from here, so he was always vigilant.
Henry Zhang reminded aloud: "Although I have tried to take away the souls once before and failed, but I am not sure whether everyone encounters the same dangers when taking away the souls. I can only remind you that it is not far from the road. The closer we get, the more weird things happen. Even though all the dead souls are making way for us now and seem to be helping us, you will understand after a while that this is all an illusion."
"I understand, I am prepared in my heart." Liu Qi nodded without being careless.
Of course, he understood that it would not be easy to take away a dead soul. After experiencing so much, he was no longer the naive student he was when he was studying.
The two of them walked very quickly and communicated while walking and talking.
soon.
Following a road that the dead soul took the initiative to move out of the way, the two of them soon saw a neon light flashing at the end of the road in the distance.
The neon lights illuminated the surroundings, and the colorful paper flowers on the roadside could be vaguely seen.
"I see, we can leave the road when we reach the end." Liu Qi's face lit up, and he felt a little excited.
He thought he would get lost here before, but he didn't expect to find the way out of here so easily.
Once you have a direction, you just have to bite the bullet and move forward.
However, at this moment, Henry Zhang was already prepared to face the danger.
He also had times like this, when he clearly had hope in front of him, but failed in the end, but this time he and Liu Qi teamed up to try to see if they could break this curse.
soon.
Liu Qi's expression moved slightly, and he was the first to notice something.
The dead soul that he reached out to grab looked exactly like his father. He didn't know what was going on at this moment. His footsteps were getting slower and slower. No, it wasn't that his footsteps were getting slower, but his body was getting heavier and heavier, as if there was something there. A huge resistance is blocking the progress of the dead souls.
This resistance was shared by Liu Qi, and his originally brisk pace was now somewhat difficult to move.
It felt like I was stuck in an abyss and quagmire, unable to move forward quickly.
"There is a resistance that prevents me from moving forward, and the further I go, the greater the resistance becomes. Henry Zhang, the abnormality you mentioned has appeared." Liu Qi said with a gloomy face.
However, Henry Zhang, who was not holding the dead soul, did not feel this way. He said: "I'm here to help you."
After saying that, he reached out and helped Liu Qi hold the other hand of the dead soul.
But this time I reached out and grabbed it.
Sudden.
The dead soul, which was originally as silent as a corpse, opened its mouth at this time and let out an incredibly weird scream. The sound revealed an indescribable pain, as if it was trying its best to resist Henry Zhang's touch.
At the same time, the dead body of the dead soul was rapidly turning black, rotting, and disintegrating. If this continued, the dead soul would probably die completely soon.
When this situation occurred, Henry Zhang was so frightened that he quickly let go of his hand and let go of the dead soul.
After he retracted his hand, the dead soul's mouth immediately closed, the screams stopped, and the body also stopped deteriorating, and slowly recovered as time passed.
"There has never been an example of two people leading a dead soul together before. Now it seems that the dead soul can only be held by its relatives to prevent it from resisting. If there is a second person to help, I am afraid that the dead soul will die completely for some reason.
This should be the rule on this road of the dead." Henry Zhang calmed down, analyzed it a little, and came to a conclusion.
"It seems you have to rely on yourself, but if there are other dangers around, I can help."
"It doesn't matter, I've already prepared for it." Liu Qi said.
Then he took a deep breath and decided to use his supernatural power after feeling that it was becoming increasingly difficult to move forward.
next moment.
The deathly ashes and coldness on the dead soul began to spread quickly towards Liu Qi, along with the huge resistance.
This supernatural power comes from a curse.
The curse carried by Liu Qi allows him to transfer all the supernatural beings from anyone to himself. Of course, the more powerful the supernatural being, the longer the contact is. For ordinary people, this curse will be extremely dangerous. As long as Liu Qi
Once Qi comes into contact with an ordinary person, it only takes a short moment for a part of the living person to be transferred to himself.
Such as health, sight, taste, and even life span.
Strictly speaking, he can continue to transfer the lifespan of living people to allow himself to live forever. Of course, ordinary people whose lifespan is transferred will die immediately.
But that's just in a sense, after all, what the ghost controller should worry about most is not the life span, but the recovery of the ghost. Once the ghost controller recovers, no matter how long the life is, it will be useless.
And the transfer is not all, some will be lost.
If an ordinary person has a lifespan of one hundred years, then Liu Qi will only have thirty years left.
That is to say, 30% was obtained.
The remaining 70% seems to have been broken or taken away by some terrifying ghost that is the source of this curse.
Similarly, if the spirit is transferred, the spirit will also be damaged, but the amount of damage is not fixed and must be determined according to the horror of the spirit. Therefore, this transfer is equivalent to weakening the spirit in disguise, but
Despite this, the weakened supernatural being attached to Liu Qi's body still placed a huge burden on him.
Fortunately, Liu Qi, who was burdened with this curse, made good use of it and controlled other ghosts.
"It's okay, I can handle it."
Liu Qi took a deep breath and felt that the resistance had been greatly weakened, making him feel much more relaxed than before.
He once again pulled the dead soul and accelerated his pace.
The distance is quickly closing.
By visual inspection, we were already less than fifty meters away from this road.
But at this moment, other anomalies appeared again.
In a dim corner, a pair of bloodshot eyes appeared, staring at Liu Qi, and began to approach quickly.
There is no doubt that it is a fierce ghost.
The bloodshot ghost was approaching quickly, and its strange body was moving quickly in the darkness, like a corpse crawling on the ground.
The evil ghost hasn't come close yet, but it's obvious that it's still far away.
Two arms covered with scratches and a bit of rot suddenly stretched out from behind the dead soul on the side, and then grabbed the advancing Liu Qi.
It all happened so suddenly.
Liu Qi, who was only focused on pulling the dead soul forward, didn't react at all.
"It's the ghost who was targeting me before. Damn it, at this time..."
Liu Qi's expression suddenly changed, and then his body became uncontrollable. He stumbled and fell directly to the ground. At the same time, his body was pulled by a huge force and kept sliding back.
The resistance to progress was already great, and being attacked by a ghost now made it even worse.
At this time, Henry Zhang took action without hesitation.
His hands were wet, as if they were stained by rain, and he grabbed the arm that was full of scratches and slightly rotten.
The huge pulling force was immediately reduced a lot.
Liu Qi stopped slightly.
But it's not enough.
Those hands were like iron hoops, tightly locked on his body and unable to escape.
"No, this ghost is extraordinary. There is no way to force it back." Henry Zhang growled. He felt as if his hands were grasping a thorn, and his hands were full of scratches at the moment.
Then the scratches began to bruise and rot rapidly, and began to spread throughout the body.
He is just an ordinary city leader. He does not have the kind of top-notch supernatural power. He can turn the people in Baishui Town into the living dead with the help of ghost rain, which is good enough to prevent the ghosts from attacking them. He usually just hides in the building.
, relying on the elegiac couplets of supernatural items to fight against the evil ghosts they encounter, and rarely confront the evil ghosts head-on.
And most importantly.
The supernatural beings he encountered the last time he took away the dead souls were not that strong.
really.
Everyone's situation is different.
The more powerful a person is, the greater the danger they will encounter.
"I come."
Taking advantage of this moment, Liu Qi took action again. You must know that he has more than one kind of supernatural power.
A vague silhouette of a fierce ghost appeared in front of his eyes. This ghost was squatting on the ground, swaying like a roly-poly. At this moment, the silhouette of this ghost was pressed against a pair of scratched arms.
The two arms began to twist and deform at this moment, and the sound of cracking bones could be heard next to their ears.
The ash on Liu Qi's face was gradually increasing at this moment, and at the same time, the figure of the swaying ghost became clearer and clearer. The amplitude of the shaking was increasing, and it seemed that he would fall to the ground at any time.
The greater the shaking of the ghost, the higher the degree of supernatural horror.
Those arms, which were full of scratches and slightly rotten, could not withstand the supernatural confrontation between Liu Qi and Xiao Yang.
The last sound of bones breaking sounded.
The two arms were finally completely broken, then lost all movement, and then collapsed on the ground unable to move.
The palms that just grabbed Liu Qi lost their strength and immediately let go.
Liu Qi took a deep breath, hurriedly got rid of the entanglement of the evil ghost, pulled the dead soul away from the two arms, and then continued to move forward.
As soon as he evacuated.
The figure of the fierce ghost swaying on his arm quickly faded and quickly disappeared from sight.
Henry Zhang also seized this opportunity to stop and evacuate.
He looked down as he left.
really.
There were many cuts on the palm, and there was no blood flowing out, only rotten wounds.
However, with the supernatural rain washing, the wound improved slightly, at least the degree of decay did not worsen.
"The ghost was temporarily suppressed and did not chase after him. He took advantage of this time to rush out of here in one breath." Liu Qi said through gritted teeth.
He felt very uncomfortable at the moment.
He withstood the huge resistance from the dead souls and used his supernatural power to repel a terrifying ghost. The most unfortunate thing was that he was dragged back more than twenty meters by the ghost just now, widening the distance from the roadside again.
Henry Zhang didn’t speak.
Because he had a hunch that the remaining fifty meters would not be easy to cross.
soon.
The hunch was confirmed.
When Liu Qi returned to his previous position, the road ahead was already blocked.
In the middle of the road, three people held hands side by side and walked toward each other.
These three people actually look the same, and they are all women. The only difference is that these three strange women only have incomplete facial features. One woman only has a pair of dead gray eyes, and the other woman only has one lip painted with bright lipstick.
The last woman only had a pair of pale ears.
"This is not a dead soul, this is a ghost."
Liu Qi and Henry Zhang were stunned.
"Don't fight this thing, avoid this thing."
However, at this moment, the first woman's dead gray eyes turned slightly, as if they had come to life, staring at Liu Qi and Xiao Yang.
A moment.
Henry Zhang felt his hair standing on end, and a huge danger enveloped him.
Originally, he was still some distance away from the three ghosts, but suddenly.
It seemed like he just blinked his eyes.
Three fierce ghosts had appeared around Henry Zhang and Liu Qi, and they were all in front of their eyes, as if they were about to get close to each other. The two people were frightened and subconsciously hesitated. However, when they retreated, they found that they bumped into two women on the left and right behind them.
on the palm of your hand.
I don't know when, the two ghosts on the left and right actually raised their arms and stretched them straight, trying to block their way.
A cold atmosphere enveloped the place.
Before the two people could react, the first ghost and the third ghost continued to move forward, shrinking the space, then raised their arms and bent them in an unreasonable way, forming a circle, as if they wanted to connect the two.
Individually surrounded.
"No, rush out, don't let the three ghosts trap us." Liu Qi's expression also changed suddenly.
Looking at the sudden changes, I also felt that danger was approaching.
As a ghost controller, his intuition told him that once these three ghosts succeeded, they would definitely die miserably if they were trapped in the middle.
Henry Zhang used his supernatural power at this moment, and an incredible scene happened.
The supernatural rain above my head actually stopped and did not fall.
But he clearly saw that rain was constantly dripping outside the bodies of the three strange women.
The supernatural rain was completely blocked outside.
Liu Qi also took action at this moment, and the shaking ghost figure appeared in front of him again.
The evil ghost squatting on the ground began to sway like a tumbler again.
However, this time, the shaking ghost hit the arms of the three strange women, but there was no movement at all. Instead, the shaking frequency suddenly decreased after being hit by the arm.
However, this is not without effect.
The speed of the three strange women's surroundings as they touched each other's palms slowed down slightly.
"Can you get out?" Henry Zhang tried again.
He bent down and tried to get out from under the arms of the three strange women.
But just as soon as he moved.
The next moment, he was in a daze, and then he was back in the middle surrounded by three strange women.
Useless.
And at this moment.
Liu Qi, Henry Zhang's nose, mouth, and eyes began to continuously bleed blood at this moment, and the breath of life on their bodies seemed to be passing away quickly.
Obviously this is an extremely terrifying supernatural attack.
Because of a little delay.
At this moment, Li Gui's bent arms were about to completely touch and close, leaving only a few centimeters of space.
"It's too late, I don't have a chance to rush out." Liu Qi was horrified at this moment.
His decision was wrong.
If he retreated immediately, he could survive.
But at the first moment, both Henry Zhang and him were thinking about confrontation, trying to suppress Li Gui head-on as before.
However it failed.
This also resulted in them losing the chance to escape.
The root cause of this is that Liu Qi did not want to turn around and evacuate, because he had already evacuated more than 20 meters just now, and now he can finally leave here with a distance of dozens of meters. If he retreats again, when will he be able to bring the dead souls back to life.
"Light the ghost candle."
Liu Qi did not give up hope, he took out a red ghost candle.
He has become a candidate for captain, so naturally he also has this kind of supernatural prop.
But when he tried to light the ghost candle, he found that the ghost candle would not light, as if it could not burn.
"How could..." Liu Qi was stunned for a moment.
Xiao Yang understood that the ghost that blocked Liu Qi was more terrifying than he imagined. He said: "Give up the dead souls, otherwise we may all die here. This ghost cannot let us take the dead souls out of here alive. Hurry up."
