Chapter 455 Lucky, Unlucky

"Crunch——!"

As the door of the tattoo parlor opened, a faint blue light first illuminated.

Li Leping and Shen Tian walked out of the door and looked around again.

Here is still the dark alley, surrounded by a strange cold atmosphere.

Looking deeper along the alley, all you can see is a fog-like darkness.

The line of sight was blocked, so that the eyes could not observe what was hidden in the darkness, and even the slightest sound could not be heard.

"If according to what the old man said, the ghost alley connects many supernatural places, then it means that those supernatural places were also built in Daha City. In other words, the actual area covered by this alley is actually exaggerated."

Li Leping and Shen Tian knew what this meant.

In such an out-of-control ghost alley, there must be many haunted places.

Although the two of them have not encountered real danger yet, this is because they were lucky enough to meet a guide like Jiang Hao, who then took them to the only normal place left in the ghost alley.

And those ordinary people who were accidentally involved in the ghost alley and were pulled into such a strange place without any preparation are probably dead by now.

"Damn it, I grew up in Dahar City and have been around for more than 20 years, but I didn't realize that there is such a ghost place in Daha City."

Shen Tian was getting more and more headache at this moment.

It would be very uncomfortable for anyone else if such a big hidden danger suddenly appeared in their own territory.

"Did you really not notice it at all?"

But at this moment, Li Leping turned his head slightly and meant to give some guidance.

"Captain Li, what do you mean?"

The moment Shen Tian heard these words, his body subconsciously paused. Although the pause was short, the guilty conscience flashing in his eyes was still seen by Li Leping.

The keen observation ability honed from many supernatural incidents cannot be overshadowed. Even though Shen Tian hid it well, Li Leping still noticed some clues.

"Let me start by saying, how much do you really know about the situation in Dahar City, and how much information are you willing to tell me? I don't care about these things now, and I don't want to get entangled with you at this time about what you have and what you don't, but since you choose

Come out with me, and the next thing will be at my discretion."

Li Leping, who was in a hurry, did not want to waste time emphasizing disciplinary issues at this time. He just gave a brief warning: "If you are unwilling to obey, or have other opinions, then I will not force others to be themselves.

It’s something I don’t want to do, but in the same way, if you have no value to me, then there is no need for me to drag a sandbag around in supernatural events.”

Li Leping held a will-o'-the-wisp lantern in one hand and waved it outward with the other, signaling to Shen Tian that if he had any dissatisfaction or had his own agenda, he should leave the area shrouded in fire by himself and don't let him come to "invite" him personally.

.

"Captain Li, let's not make such jokes at this time. Look, another two minutes have passed. Let's quickly find the person you are looking for."

The warning in the cold tone immediately made Shen Tian's face change slightly, as if every word Li Leping said hit his weak spot.

But he quickly regained his composure, and then even managed to squeeze out a flattering smile on his face.

Seeing this, Li Leping, who had warned him in advance, said nothing more at this moment.

At this time, he held the will-o'-the-wisp lantern and walked towards the depths of the ghost alley.

But soon, he stopped and looked quietly at the strange scene formed by the intersection of supernatural and reality in front of him.

The faint blue fire emitted by the will-o'-the-wisp lantern was not what the old man said at this moment, and could only barely cover an area where a few people could stand.

It burned very vigorously, and the firelight penetrated through the human skin covering the surface, almost covering the road more than ten meters ahead.

But Li Leping knew very well that this most likely did not mean that what the old man said was false, but that he had not really penetrated into the out-of-control zone of the ghost alley.

Although this place is located in a ghost alley, it is also the site of the terrifying tattoo parlor behind it.

When the old man from the tattoo parlor was still alive, this place would not be exposed to any problems, so naturally the area covered by the lantern light would not be overly suppressed.

When the area covered by the lantern fire was suppressed and the coverage area was reduced, it meant that they had truly penetrated deep into the ghost alley.

By then, something scary might hit you.

But no matter what risks he will encounter next, there is currently one biggest problem before Li Leping.

That's the power of the will-o'-the-wisp lantern.

The area illuminated by the lantern is the area in reality, and the area outside the area is the scene in the ghost realm.

This raises a big problem.

For example, at this moment, a wall appeared in front of Li Leping.

The towering concrete wall just appeared in front of him out of thin air.

According to the correspondence between the ghost realm and reality, there happens to be such a wall where he is now.

This is a wall located in reality.

Originally, the path would not be blocked by this wall when walking in the ghost realm, but the will-o'-the-wisp lantern just illuminated it.

"I shouldn't have brought you here."

Looking at the modern cement wall in front of him, Li Leping looked back at Shen Tian.

If Shen Tian didn't act with him, then he could have forced the ghost realm to be used while holding the lantern, just like the ghost who had the ghost realm.

Under the influence of the ghost realm, no realistic scenes encountered along the way can stop his progress.

No matter whether it is a wall or an iron gate, even mountains of swords and seas of fire cannot stop the ghost realm from coming and going freely.

"Well……"

Shen Tian could read Li Leping's cold eyes as if he was looking at a weakling, but at this moment Shen Tian did not dare to lose his temper at all and could only rub his face in embarrassment.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! It feels uncomfortable to be looked down upon.

But the most uncomfortable thing is that he still has no way to refute.

"Then...how about I go back the way I came?" Shen Tian asked.

"Forget it, come here."

Unexpectedly, Li Leping did not agree to Shen Tian's proposal to return.

He waved and motioned for Shen Tian to come in front of him.

Because he felt that Shen Tian still had room to perform.

Shen Tian, ​​on the other hand, looked suspicious, with a somewhat frightened look in his eyes.

He always felt like he was going to be a shield.

"Captain Li, do you want me to resist damage from the front?"

Although Shen Tian was reluctant, he still walked up to Li Leping honestly.

"It's not that resistant to damage, but I'm quite curious about the piece of paper inlaid on your chest. I guess that piece of red paper of yours should have some kind of effect on driving away evil spirits?" Li Leping stood behind Shen Tian and said.

.

"Awesome, you are worthy of being the captain of the headquarters. I only used my ghost ability once, and you analyzed so much."

Shen Tian gestured his thumb back, but if his whole arm didn't keep shaking, maybe the impression would be better.

"If you don't want to reveal your specific abilities, I won't force you. After all, I never like to force others to do things."

Hearing this, Shen Tian breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously.

No ghost controller would be willing to reveal his ability to control ghosts without any reason.

Even in front of the captain, this principle will not change.

However, before Shen Tian breathed a sigh of relief, Li Leping continued: "But if you encounter a ghost, it can't be regarded as me forcing you to do things."

"What do you mean?" Shen Tian's eyes widened instantly.

"literal meaning."

After saying this, Li Leping put one of his hands on Shen Tian's shoulder.

Through his clothes, the deathly coldness on his palms immediately made Shen Tian shiver.

"I'll clear the way, but if you encounter or hear something strange next time, you have to figure it out yourself."

Li Leping finished speaking.

The next second.

A pungent burnt smell suddenly poured into Shen Tian's nose.

"Ahem..."

And just as he was coughing.

Behind him, a thick black smoke had covered him, and Shen Tian was instantly enveloped in it.

cold.

Very cold.

It was like the thick smoke that comes out after a fire burns, but it carried an extremely abnormal cold feeling, which made him feel even more uncomfortable. He felt as if he was about to be swallowed up by the smoke.

Subconsciously, he wanted to take off the clothes on his chest and reveal the red paper attached to his skin.

"Don't move, this is my ghost domain."

But at this moment, a strange voice from behind stopped him from doing something that almost caused internal conflict.

"Ghostland?"

Just as this thought flashed through Shen Tian's mind, the movements of his hands slowed down involuntarily.

It was as if he had momentarily forgotten how to lift his arms.

At the same time, his whole body was wrapped in thick smoke with a burning smell.

Then, a huge force from behind began to push him forward.

Before he could react, he was wrapped in thick smoke and passed through the seemingly solid wall in front of him.

It all ended too quickly and too easily.

"Don't stop, keep going."

Li Leping did not take back the ghost smoke, he still let the ghost smoke wrap around him and Shen Tian.

Because as long as he walks within the range of the will-o'-the-wisp lantern, he will inevitably encounter various obstacles from reality.

Just like this.

A wall and a car.

They were obviously walking along the weird alley in sight, but in fact, he and Shen Tian were in the will-o'-the-wisp lanterns and came to the real place corresponding to the ghost alley.

They just passed through a certain house in a certain building, or passed through the middle of a car.

And in the midst of such a weird experience.

As the two of them continued to move forward, both Li Leping and Shen Tian felt that changes began to appear around them.

The walls on both sides started to feel like they were expanding outwards.

It seemed as if the narrow road under my feet gradually became wider at this moment.

"The changes have begun, and we should soon enter the out-of-control zone of the ghost alley."

Li Leping felt the increasingly open environment, but he did not feel any sense of relaxation and joy. Instead, he felt even more stressed.

The temperature in the alley gradually became colder.

This place is a man-made supernatural place. It used to be specially used for communication between ghost masters, but now it is a dangerous place with wandering ghosts.

Suddenly.

Just when the two of them took another step forward.

"Pfft!"

Without any warning, the blue flames inside the will-o'-the-wisp lantern suddenly jumped up, and then seemed to be suppressed by some invisible force, and the flames instantly dimmed.

In the blink of an eye, the light that had just covered more than ten meters in front shrank instantly, and the bottomless darkness in front was like a pair of big hands, pushing the light back.

For a time, the area that the will-o'-the-wisp lantern could illuminate was greatly reduced, and it could only illuminate less than half a meter around him.

The walls that formed the alley on both sides also disappeared into the darkness at this moment.

At this moment, the only thing Li Leping could see was Shen Tian in front of him, who was holding his shoulders.

"what happened?"

Like a wheelbarrow, Shen Tian, ​​who was pushed all the way here by Li Leping, realized that the light behind him that should have been bright was weakened at this moment, and the illuminated range was greatly reduced.

The darkness that was still quite far away from the two of them suddenly pressed over, making people feel extremely depressed and frightened.

"We've arrived." Li Leping said without surprise.

Then, he glanced at the surrounding situation.

Can't see anything clearly.

At the moment, he is like a lighthouse on the sea. Although he has a light source, in this boundless place, the light always has an upper limit.

"It's really troublesome. What are you afraid of?"

What Li Leping hates most is this deep darkness.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Because no one knows whether something will suddenly jump out in this dead darkness.

However, he did not stay where he was, nor did he shrink back.

His goal was very clear. He would first find the casino that the old man mentioned, then find He Xueyan, and finally return to the tattoo parlor, retrieve the short stick, and leave here.

"I don't need to solve this supernatural incident. I just need to find He Xueyan. In this case, I don't need to fight every ghost I encounter."

After thinking for a while, Li Leping said to Shen Tian in front of him: "Get ready."

"what to prepare?"

Shen Tian was stunned for a moment, apparently still unable to react.

"You will definitely encounter some unclean things on the next journey. The lantern is only the first layer of protection and cannot be completely trusted, so the red paper on your body is needed as the second layer of protection." Li Leping said.

"Captain Li, eldest brother, my dear brother, there is a price for using supernatural power, and... to tell you the truth, the red paper on my chest is also very unstable. I call it the lucky red paper, as the name suggests.

It can bring good luck to people, but how can a ghost keep you lucky? It's like gambling, you may win many times, but as long as you lose once, you will have nothing." Shen Tian was slightly panicked.

road.

"It seems that you know this red paper very well, so how do you know its price? Is it because you have suffered a backlash, or because you have seen a ghost master who died from using too much red paper?

?”

"Also, since there is lucky red paper, will there be paper that represents bad luck? For example, bad luck black paper or something like that?"

Hearing this, Li Leping's expression remained very calm. He even caught the oversight in Shen Tian's words and began to gradually analyze the supernatural being he controlled.

"you……"

Shen Tian's expression suddenly changed as his shoulders were being pressed. He wanted to shout, "Don't go too far," but he felt how cold the palm pressing on his shoulders was, and at the same time felt the pressure from behind.

In the end, he could only show a hint of bitterness: "Brother, can you stop asking, I feel like you are about to take off my underwear."

Today, Shen Tian finally felt what it means to cry without tears.

This is simply more painful than fighting a ghost.

He couldn't beat him again and again, and the little trick he tried so hard to hide was still seen through by others.

Especially when he heard the words "unlucky black paper", Shen Tian felt his scalp numb, goosebumps all over his body, and his heart stopped.

If Li Leping was standing in front of Shen Tian, ​​he could see how frightened his face was at this moment.

Because the second ghost he controlled was indeed named "Unlucky Black Paper" by him.

Verbatim.
