Originally out of a prudent plan, Li Leping had delayed the hanging of the flags as much as possible, allowing Jiang Hao's ghost-beckoning flag to be hung on the top of the bamboo pole at ten o'clock in the evening.
But what he never expected was that the hanging flags would take effect much faster than Li Leping expected.
Ten minutes passed, and danger came from outside the temple.
Different from the small fights in the previous three days, the terror of this outbreak has obviously increased by several orders of magnitude.
The door that had protected them for three days lost its effectiveness at this time. The ghosts who came outside the door seemed to realize this after knocking on the door several times, so they immediately chose to invade.
Creepy supernatural phenomena instantly flooded into the temple.
There was no other way, so everyone was forced to retreat to the main hall in the central area of the temple.
The door of the main hall was not closed. Looking around, the open space that everyone had just repaired was now shrouded in thick darkness. In the darkness, you couldn't see your fingers. Although you couldn't see anything clearly, you could hear various mixed footsteps, as if in the darkness.
Many of them followed along with the darkness.
Fortunately, this main hall with coffins seems to be able to affect the approach speed of the evil ghosts outside.
The ghosts that rushed into the temple in an instant obviously slowed down the erosion at this moment, and even the spread of darkness outside was also slowed down. They were just lingering near the foundation of the hall and did not rush up the steps.
This gave everyone who retreated to the main hall some time to breathe.
But the good times didn't last long.
Just after they retreated into the main hall, before everyone had time to figure out what they needed to do today, the coffin placed on the left side of the altar began to move strangely.
"Bang, bang bang..."
The dangerous place in the temple is not only the evil spirits from outside, but now the black coffin, which was finally calmed down the next day, is actually making strange noises.
The corpse inside seemed to have revived again at this critical moment, and was now gently flapping the coffin board in front of it, but the movement was not too big.
However, everyone present has no doubt that if it keeps dragging on, sooner or later this seemingly thick coffin board will be pushed away by the ghost inside.
After all, no matter how long it takes for the evil ghost to revive, it won't be that long.
There is only one reason why he did not jump out of the coffin immediately, and that is that the suppressing effect of the coffin is still there. But since the ghost has shown signs of awakening, it means that the suppressing effect of the coffin is not as good as before, and it will soon be
Invalid.
"How could this happen? How long did it take for the things inside to settle down?"
The sound coming from the coffin instantly attracted everyone's attention. The face of one of the ghost masters instantly turned ugly. When he made a deep voice, a look of fear appeared in his eyes.
"The ghost inside has woken up again. Even if it hasn't crawled out yet, it won't be long." A ghost controller who was also aware of the imminent danger said through gritted teeth.
"It's over, it's over."
Some ghost masters found it difficult to speak, as if they were suppressing fear before speaking.
The current situation can be said to be extremely bad.
The ghosts inside the main hall showed signs of escaping, and the outside of the main hall was surrounded by a group of ghosts who rushed into the temple.
The situation where there is a wolf in front and a tiger behind is almost a complete dead end for people like me.
"Now is not the time to talk in despair. If you are so scared, you might as well go out now. You will die sooner and you will be freed sooner."
A ghost controller looked rudely at the few ghost controllers who had mental problems when they disagreed with each other. He obviously looked down on these guys who couldn't handle the pressure when things happened.
"What did you say? Say it again if you dare!"
Stimulated by his words, the Ghost Controller's face darkened instantly, and his eyes instantly focused on the Ghost Controller who made the rude remarks.
"You say you are a waste, you can just talk a lot, but when it comes to action, you are a weakling and a bastard. If you are so capable, why are you staring at me in this damn place? If you have the ability, just go ahead and do it.
If you can plug the things in the coffin back, or deal with the ghosts outside, I don't have any problem with you mourning your whole family here."
However, the hostile looks from around him did not intimidate the ghost master. He had a cold face and folded his arms, still sarcastically sarcastic at those people who were glaring at him, as if they wanted to kill him on the spot and then throw him out to feed the ghosts.
guy.
In his opinion, there are frequent dangers at the moment, and everyone present may die at any time. If you don't think about finding a way to deal with it at this time, those who can't hold back immediately will only affect the morale of the military. It can be said that it is a real deal.
waste.
Having said this.
The atmosphere on the field instantly became extremely bad.
"These unreliable guys..."
Jiang Hao, who continued to pay attention to the situation outside the hall, instantly darkened his face when he heard various noises and quarrels. He glanced at the source of the quarrel, then rubbed his forehead and cursed in his heart.
When faced with danger, even ghost masters sometimes lose control.
Not to mention that the large number of ghost masters present means that there are all kinds of people inside. Once they encounter danger in a mixed situation, some people will not be able to stay calm.
Disagreements, disagreements, and never reaching a unified idea...
If it weren't for the fact that this group of people were ghost masters and could more or less resist the attacks of evil ghosts, Jiang Hao would have been unable to resist killing a few people he didn't like.
In fact, at this moment, he was already planning to kill several people.
Unfortunately, the idea never had time to be implemented.
"Stop arguing and look outside."
Some people can't see the situation as clearly as a brainless person at this time, but some people remain calm at this time and always pay attention to the situation outside the hall with vigilant eyes.
"Damn it, that black mist is moving again!" a ghost master roared in a low voice.
The darkness that filled the hall became active again at this moment.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! One step, two steps...
Gradually, the steps leading to the main hall were shrouded in darkness little by little, and the places that everyone could see clearly were also reduced.
The darkness that permeates the outside has a tendency to cover us.
Under the overwhelming supernatural forces, this seemingly temporarily safe hall seemed to be eroded.
But the worst thing is that the seemingly safe main hall may be the biggest hidden danger.
"Bang bang bang!"
There is always a sound echoing in the supposedly quiet hall. The sound of the coffin sounding like a corpse is always reminding everyone in the hall that danger is close at hand.
at the same time.
Various movements were also heard outside the main hall.
As the darkness approaches, the sounds made by these things hidden in the darkness become more and more distinct and strange-sounding. Most of them sound like the dull sound of someone's feet on the steps.
, as if there were a bunch of corpses coming onto the hall outside.
And among this terrifying sound of climbing into the palace, you can still hear some even weirder sounds, like the friction sound of something crawling on the ground, and something rolling on the ground.
The sound that one can make, and the sound of someone clapping their hands while walking, are like applause when watching a good show.
All of a sudden, the inside of the temple became lively, and the noise from outside became louder and louder. It was like a Dharma conference was officially held. Both believers and participating gods and Buddhas were present on this day.
However, the fact is that at this moment, everyone in the hall closed their mouths and chose silence after hearing the noise coming from outside.
Several ghost masters who had had a verbal conflict before and looked like they were going to fight also became more honest at this time. Their whole bodies were tense and they didn't dare to move at all, let alone make a sound, for fear of being touched at this time.
The killing pattern of a certain ghost outside.
You must know that today is different from the past. Now that the barrier of the temple is gone, the distance between humans and ghosts is only the height difference of a short flight of steps.
If you really provoke a certain terrifying ghost, you may not even be able to see it, and you will be killed instantly.
"Captain Li, what should we do?"
Sensing the impending danger, Jiang Hao looked particularly ugly and felt uneasy. He quickly came to Li Leping, who was like a centering stone, and asked for his opinion.
Now the sounds coming from outside are getting clearer and clearer, which means that the ghost is getting closer and closer.
what to do?
Li Leping did not immediately answer this question.
Even though the ghosts outside the hall were getting closer and closer, he did not look left at the black coffin on the altar and right at how far away the black mist outside the house was like the others.
His eyes were always focused on the altar, and he never left the moving black coffin from the beginning.
"I lit white candles in the early hours of this morning in order to activate the paper figures. Normally, white candles will attract ghosts when lit, but the ghosts in these three coffins were not awakened by the ghost candles, not even a little bit.
There was no unnecessary movement, and he was still lying in these three coffins."
"This is enough to show that the suppression effect of the coffins is still intact, and it also shows that ordinary external means cannot awaken the evil ghosts in these three coffins."
"Then, since external means cannot awaken the evil spirit inside the coffin, and the effect of the coffin itself is still complete and has not failed, then whether it is the day before yesterday or at this moment, the movement inside the coffin may not mean that it is out of control, but something in the hall.
The rules were triggered today, after the flag hanging ceremony."
After a few more seconds of silence, Li Leping slowly spoke.
And his expressionless look and calm tone also eased Jiang Hao's nervousness a little.
"Is the ghost in the coffin part of today's ceremony?"
Jiang Hao's face was very solemn. After realizing what Li Leping meant, he lowered his voice and said.
Li Leping stopped responding to Jiang Hao's words because Jiang Hao had already given the answer.
However, just having an answer is not enough.
He needs a process, just like the ritual process needs to be carried out when realizing the ritual. Only after clarifying what the so-called invitation to the hall means, can today's Dharma conference end successfully.
However, there is not much time for him to think now.
"Crunch——!"
Suddenly.
There was a sound from behind.
Look back.
"What are you doing!"
But before Li Leping and Jiang Hao could speak, the ghost master expressed his dissatisfaction.
A pair of eyes looked at the ghost masters who suddenly closed the palace door, and the displeasure in their eyes and faces was very obvious.
If it had been any other time, this kind of behavior would have been carried out without consultation, and would have been severely beaten.
"What are you doing? The ghosts are about to come outside. Is there any problem with closing the door? Maybe this door can block the ghosts just like the door outside? It's better than you standing there for a long time unable to hold in a fart.
Come."
The few ghost masters from the same country did not give in after closing the door. They even acted confidently and said nothing that sounded wrong.
"But you closed the door, so how can we see clearly what's going on outside?" an unhappy ghost controller accused.
"See clearly? The ghost is almost outside the door. What's the point of seeing it clearly? Kowtow to it a hundred times and it will let you go?"
One of the several ghost masters laughed.
"you……"
The ghost master who reprimanded their behavior was instantly choked and speechless. He just glared at them and then retreated into the crowd.
"Captain Li, do you want to take care of it?" Jiang Hao asked with a frown, looking at the ghost masters who were fighting among themselves when nothing happened.
"Don't worry about them. In fact, their original value is this. If you keep testing in front, even if you really risk your own death, there is nothing to feel bad about."
Li Leping's voice was calm and he didn't care about the relationship between these Southeast Asian ghost masters in front of him.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Because in Li Leping's eyes, they are actually just a bunch of cannon fodder.
The current move to close the doors is actually a way to demonstrate value.
Someone has to try to see if this works.
Even if they don't want to be cannon fodder, in the face of the ensuing supernatural attacks, who cares whether you care or not?
If you are targeted by a ghost, you can only find a way to resist it. If you can't resist it, you will be dead. There is nothing to say.
After all, ghosts don't care about people's petty calculations.
That is, when Li Le was calmly observing the changes, he was still thinking about how to complete the invitation ceremony today.
Everyone in the hall looked worried. There was cold sweat on everyone's forehead, but they had no time to wipe it off at the moment. Even if the sweat dropped into their eyes, they didn't dare to blink. They all held their breath and concentrated.
Staring at the closed palace door.
As the only channel connecting this place to the outside world, once the palace door is closed, there is really no way to know the situation outside.
All everyone can do is pray that the ghost outside will slow down and approach.
Some people even began to imagine that the ghosts outside would leave under the influence of some special factors.
But fantasy is still fantasy.
"boom!"
The palace door, which had been closed for only a short time, was suddenly pushed open.
"Boom! Boom!"
The person pushing the door seemed extremely arrogant and frighteningly strong. It was more like smashing the door than pushing it.
Under the gaze of everyone, with countless pairs of wide-open eyes, two wooden doors were smashed off at this moment, and fell heavily to the ground, splashing a burst of dust that had been accumulated on the floor for who knows how many years.
Taking a closer look, many people's expressions changed drastically.
Because there were handprints of various sizes left on the two pushed-open door panels. It seemed that the palace door was not pushed open by one or two people, but was smashed down by a group of people.
The door is broken.
Everyone in the hall saw the dark outside of the house.
The oppressive darkness exuded a cold aura, but instead of pouring into the hall as before, it stopped strangely in front of the door, as if it was blocked by a threshold that could be crossed with just a slight lift of the foot.
