The ghost smoke was shrouded, and the thick smoke that tore a passage in the sea of fire seemed to be able to fight the fire, extending to the right side of the temple.
Li Leping's conjecture is correct. From the perspective of terror level, the terror of ghost smoke obviously cannot compete with that of black fire. However, in the process of supernatural confrontation, in addition to the influencing factor of terror level, there are also extremely rare factors.
relationship of restraint.
After all, the thick smoke restrained the black fire that was burned by corpse oil. The flame that could burn anything could not ignite the thick black smoke. The terrible supernatural erosion could not affect the ghost smoke at all. Instead, there were still stolen things.
sign.
The swaying will-o'-the-wisp gradually merged into the ghost smoke, joining together to form a new supernatural being.
Li Leping has not fully understood the specific effects of this new supernatural power. He was not aware of the change for a time and was accidentally injured because of it.
However, as he gradually clarified his thoughts, the ghost smoke returned to his control. The phenomenon of being like gunpowder that could be easily ignited would no longer appear in the ghost smoke for the time being, at least it would not be the same as before.
He was injured by the explosion.
Walk along the passage formed by ghost smoke.
soon.
The three of them came to the well.
This ancient well looks no different from an ordinary well. It is made of stone bricks, and the edges are covered with moss, as if it has been washed away by the years. There is a wooden pulley above the well, and the pulley is connected to it.
Holding a rope, it seems that just shaking the handle of the pulley can bring up the well water.
Look inside the well mouth.
Although the width of the well mouth is not large, with limited vision, you can still see that this well is not a dry well, but there is water at the bottom.
However, the seemingly calm water surface reveals a sinister atmosphere, and it is dark inside. No one knows whether there is anything hidden under the bottomless water surface, let alone where the water flows from.
Came here.
"Captain Li, do you want to go down the well now?"
Jiang Hao looked at the situation at the bottom of the well, and there was always a sense of uneasiness lingering in his heart.
After all, no one knows the real situation under the well, and even the scene they see at the moment is fake. After they actually go down into the well, they will see another scene under the influence of the supernatural.
"Wait a moment."
Li Leping did not act in a hurry, but turned the windlass at this time.
Soon, with the turning of the windlass, the well rope kept turning upwards, until finally, a wooden barrel filled with well water was lifted up.
Staring at the wooden bucket filled with well water, Li Leping stretched out his hand and lightly traced the water's surface with his fingers.
A cold feeling from the well water came into his mind through his fingers. The well water was very cold, but it was only physically cold. Apart from getting his fingers wet, it did not cause any actual harm to him.
"The well water itself seems to be fine for the time being."
Out of caution, Li Leping did not speak too fully, but only analyzed the situation based on the situation at hand.
Since nothing can be seen from the top of the wellhead, no matter whether there is a hidden danger in this well, the only way to confirm the situation is by going down in person.
They couldn't stay in this burning place longer and had to leave as soon as possible.
"Go down the well, let him be the first one. If nothing happens after he goes down, you will be the second one and I will be the last one."
Li Leping looked at Jiang Hao, then at the Southeast Asian ghost controller next to him, and gave the order.
"good."
Jiang Hao did not hesitate, let alone question, and immediately translated Li Leping's order.
The ghost controller gritted his teeth when he heard this. He knew the reason why he was asked to go down first. It was obviously to let him, a guy who had never contributed much, test the water now to see if there was any problem with the well.
If he is lucky, he can survive. If he is not lucky, he might die in this well.
However, despite the language barrier, this ghost controller still knows how to assess the situation and knows that instead of refusing at this time and being forcibly thrown down by the captain of the Asia headquarters, it is better to take the initiative and jump down, and maybe earn a
Impression points.
"Okay, I'll get off first."
The ghost controller, who gritted his teeth and his heart was beating fast, roared, then without any delay, he climbed over the stone bricks and fell directly to the bottom of the well.
"thump!"
The water splashed, and the ghost rider immediately sank to the bottom of the water after falling.
But he came up quickly, wiped the water stains on his face, and looked up quickly. When he saw Li Leping and Jiang Hao looking over at the mouth of the well, he immediately waved to them.
Show that you are okay.
"Is it safe?"
With this thought, Jiang Hao followed the second one and jumped into the well without any delay.
Soon, he swam up immediately after falling into the water.
However, he did not immediately go to Li Leping to confirm that he was okay, but first waited and checked the situation nearby.
After jumping into the well, he seemed to be in a pool of calm water.
However, something was wrong in this calmness.
Because this place is not as narrow as the bottom of a normal well, but is extremely wide and abnormally wide.
Looking in all directions, he found that the surroundings were dark, and this darkness seemed to have no boundaries. There was no end in sight, so that Jiang Hao, who jumped down, was lost here and didn't know where to go.
.
"Captain Li, something is not normal here. This place is like the sea level, there is no end in sight." Jiang Hao, who was wandering on the water, raised his head and shouted towards the wellhead.
However, Li Leping did not stay outside because of this. Instead, he jumped down immediately after taking back the ghost smoke.
"thump!"
The moment he fell into the water, there was another splash of water.
Soon, Li Leping also surfaced.
"Captain Li, where should we swim now?"
None of the three people who entered the bottom of the well suffered any supernatural attacks. Just looking at the dark and endless water, Jiang Hao still felt an ominous aura lingering around him.
"wait."
Li Leping raised his head at this moment and looked at the location of the wellhead.
"Wait? Wait for what?" Jiang Hao asked doubtfully.
"When the fire burns the rope, the ignited barrel and the ignited well water will fall to this place together. What do you think the water will look like at that time?" Li Leping asked.
"It turns out that you want to use the wooden barrel that was lifted up and the well water inside as the medium for the black fire to burn. Once the rope is burned, the wooden barrel that was also ignited by the black flame will fall into the well water, and this will be burned.
The entire surface of the water was also set on fire."
Jiang Hao looked like he suddenly understood why Li Leping had to fetch a bucket of water before coming down.
Investigating the well water is only one aspect. His real purpose is to find a new fuel for the flames burning in the temple and lead the fire to the well water.
"Your ghost smoke can prevent fire, so we don't need to worry after the flames burn here..."
Before he finished speaking, Jiang Hao's expression changed and he stopped talking.
Because at this moment, light ripples suddenly appeared on the calm water, and then something floated over.
It seemed to be a person, a corpse to be exact. The clothes he was wearing were very similar to the standard suit for workers in the island country. However, at this moment, the suit showing signs of being stretched open, because the corpse wearing the suit had already
It was so swollen from the water that it looked horrifying.
"Ghost? Or a human corpse?"
Looking at the swollen corpse with bloodless white skin, not only Jiang Hao stopped talking and held his breath, but the others also stared at the approaching thing.
Sure enough, the calm on the water was only temporary.
In this paranormal place, anything is possible.
Especially for Onii whose murder pattern is still unclear, every move they make may trigger Onii's murder pattern.
"It's probably not a ghost. Even if it is a ghost, it's not targeting us."
Li Leping looked at his gray skin. The fact that it did not turn red meant that the paint in his body did not sense any signs of a supernatural attack.
"Having said that, it seems that the paint has not continued to get out of control since the fire started."
"And whether the fire burned the haze or the hall, it should be classified as a supernatural attack, but the red paint in my body showed no signs at all."
The calm atmosphere also made Li Leping pay attention to his physical condition. Only then did he realize that the paint that had been causing him to cough had not shown signs of losing control for some time.
The recovery process of the paint seems to have been disturbed in some way, and the progress of the recovery has been eased.
"The black flame seems to have a targeted restraint effect on paint. The burning red coffin is enough to prove this. When the flame burns, not only the wood of the coffin is ignited, but also the red paint painted on the surface melts.
It’s dripping.”
"The flame can suppress the paint, so the ghost paint in my body is afraid of the fire in the temple, so it temporarily fell silent?"
Li Leping soon understood why the ghost paint in his body suddenly became quiet.
Only ghosts can deal with ghosts.
Even though Guiqi doesn't have intelligence, he still instinctively stops agitating after feeling the fire from the outside world that can melt it.
In particular, the red paint that instantly appeared when there were signs of a supernatural attack nearby, but after feeling the supernatural power of the black flames, there was no sign of it. It seemed that he knew very well the consequences of fighting the flames.
The horror level of red and green paint is not low, but in front of the blazing black fire, the green paint is afraid that it will be ignited instantly as soon as it touches the flames, becoming a combustion-supporting medium to expand the fire.
"However, there is nothing to be happy about. Guiqi only temporarily fell silent because he felt the presence of the black flame, but the degree of recovery has not changed. After leaving here, Guiqi will definitely become restless again immediately.
stand up."
Suddenly.
When Li Leping was thinking.
"Captain Li, look at that."
Jiang Hao's expression changed again. He was always paying attention to the surrounding situation and raised his finger to a place.
