Chapter 619: The aftermath(1/2)

In the dim hall, only a black lantern gave off a yellowish light.

"The ghost went back to the coffin?"

The eyes of everyone in the hall moved slightly, staring intently at the open coffin.

The ghost has already laid back down, but no one dares to step forward to confirm the situation, and no one dares to put the coffin board back at this time.

No one knows whether the ghost fell into a deep sleep after lying back in the coffin.

"Whoosh~!"

Suddenly, the oil lamps placed in the four corners of the hall lit up again.

The thick darkness outside the door also dissipated without a trace at this time, and the cold moonlight fell again, as if to imply that today's danger has passed.

"Go and have a look."

Looking at the oil lamp that turned on again, Li Leping was the first to react.

at the same time.

He realized something at this moment.

That's because Li Gui's killing pattern seems to have changed again.

"The ghost seems to be lying back in the coffin and returning to a sleeping state, but now I have pushed the coffin off the altar, so if the ghost lies back in the coffin at this time, it is basically the same as lying in the coffin.

On the ground, the ease of triggering the killing pattern will also be greatly increased."

This is the crux of the matter.

In order to get the ghosts off the altar, Li Leping had to use simple and crude methods, and "invited" the ghosts and coffins from the altar together.

However, this also means that once the evil ghost lies back in the coffin, the previous method of using the height of the altar to avoid attacks cannot be repeated.

Although the coffin has the function of suppressing supernatural beings, it must be used together with the coffin lid to be effective. If it is open, the coffin's effect of suppressing supernatural beings will be invalid.

"Now the ghost seems to be back in the coffin, but the lid of the coffin is not closed, so the suppression of the coffin is still not formed."

"If this is the case, then there is no chance that we people will not be targeted."

He looked around and glanced at the people who were all squatting or sitting.

Obviously, if Li Gui's killing pattern is related to height, then people like himself will definitely be targeted because of the height of the coffin.

However, the fact is that the ghosts are not targeting them.

This also means that the ghost has undergone new changes after returning to the coffin.

The previous height difference rules may no longer apply to the current situation.

Intelligence must be updated in real time.

immediately.

Li Leping stood up tentatively.

He wasn't 100% sure of evasion, so he didn't get up quickly. If anything wrong happened, he would sit back down.

But things don't seem to be as bad as expected.

His body shifted from sitting down to half squatting, and finally stood up slowly.

Nothing special happened from beginning to end.

"never mind?"

Others looked at Li Leping's series of careful movements and couldn't help but think of this possibility.

But before he spoke, no one dared to stand up with him at this time.

Maybe people have some special means to avoid the attacks of evil ghosts, but those who are not very good at controlling ghosts like me will be targeted by ghosts as soon as they stand up.

But soon.

While they were hesitating, Li Leping had already arrived at the coffin lid that he had overturned. He lifted up the thick black coffin lid and quickly closed it.

"boom!"

With a dull thud, the coffin lid not only closed tightly on the coffin, but also covered the fear in everyone's hearts.

In any case, it is better for the coffin to be closed than open.

After all, if the coffin is left open, who can guarantee that the corpse inside will not come out and wander around again one day?

No one wants to have a ghost by their side.

"The ghost inside has indeed changed."

However, when everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief, Li Leping's eyes flashed, his expression was heavy, and his hands never left the coffin lid after closing it.

The moment before he closed the coffin lid, he saw the situation inside the coffin very clearly.

Inside the narrow coffin was filled with a haze-like darkness. This darkness was floating vaguely in the narrow coffin, but fortunately there was no sign of overflowing yet.

This haze, which seemed very small in the coffin, was like a ghost realm. As it unfolded, it also obscured the evil spirits inside, making it impossible for Li Leping to see clearly the condition of the corpse inside like the first time he opened the coffin.

"The ghost has put together a piece of the puzzle, which has led to changes in the ghost's killing patterns. If the ghost in this coffin shows signs of running out again, I'm afraid it means that the coffin has completely lost its restrictive effect and the ghost will grow.

It will become even more incomprehensible and the situation will get completely out of control."

Thinking of this, Li Leping glanced at the bald ghost master who was lying on the ground, his skull had been opened and his brains were bleeding all over the floor.

The desperate and ferocious expression on his face showed his pain and helplessness before death.

In fact, it is no longer appropriate to call this bald man a ghost master, because his ghost has been taken away by the corpse in the coffin.

"One more terrible thing."

Li Leping very much hoped that the coffin, which he could still hold the lid on at the moment, would be stable in the next few days and that no new problems would break out.

But the word "hope" has always meant a slap in the face in supernatural events.

Besides, he couldn't believe that the ghost in the coffin could live peacefully for several days.

"It was a long time ago that the older generation of ghost masters planned this incident. This coffin should have been placed here for a long time. The suppression effect itself is probably not going to last long. In addition, the ghost jigsaw's

After the ghost becomes more complete, how long can this coffin hold it down?"

After thinking about it, Li Leping still did not continue to worry about the problems that the coffin might cause.

After all, there are still many things waiting for him after today.

"Jiang Hao, come here and help me."

In any case, it is better to put the coffin back on the altar and restore it to its original state.

"coming."

Jiang Hao did not shirk, but wiped the cold sweat from his forehead when the ghost approached him before, and stood up cautiously.

"Um...can we stand up?"

On the side, the ghost controller who saw Jiang Hao standing up at this time asked in a low voice, his voice sounded very humble.

Jiang Hao, who came to Li Leping's side, translated this sentence.

Li Leping did not reply immediately, but just looked at the remaining living people in the hall again.

"Counting Jiang Hao and me, there are still twelve people left."

From the twenty-three people who boarded the train at the beginning, excluding Gu Li, whose life and death are still unknown on the ghost train, the number of people left has dropped sharply from twenty-two to twelve.

Especially today, the number of deaths after real collisions with ghosts has continued to soar, exceeding the sum of the previous days by several times.

But that's not the scariest thing.

The scariest thing is that in the next few days, the level of danger will be higher than today.

"Just let them try the rules of that lantern."

After confirming the situation, Li Leping took another look and thought for a moment, and finally said to Jiang Hao: "Let six of them go to the bamboo forest and bury these ghosts lying on the ground."

Now that the biggest danger has been temporarily stabilized, of course he has to start dealing with the aftermath.

But the so-called aftermath work is not that easy to carry out.

Cold corpses can be seen everywhere on the floor of the hall. Except for the bald heads whose faces were taken away by the ghosts, the others are either the ghosts themselves, or the corpses of the ghost controllers who have not yet been revived by the ghosts.

Although the golden corpse's handprints still remain on the body, no one knows how long this suppression can last.

It would be better for everyone if we deal with these ghosts who have not yet gotten rid of their suppressed state as soon as possible.

As for whether the land in the middle of the bamboo forest can suppress these ghosts?

This requires actual testing.

If the open space of the bamboo forest can bury evil ghosts, then it means that they have found the meaning of the existence of the bamboo forest and have a place to imprison evil ghosts.

If that doesn't work, then it's right to find a place to isolate the resurrected ghosts. It's better than letting them resurrect in the temple.

"good."

Jiang Hao immediately relayed his words.
