The moment the shadow appeared, Ji Ying had already jumped to Chen Zhi's side, and the long knife fell horizontally.
But after noticing that the shadow disappeared, her first reaction was to kneel down on one knee and reach out to touch the place where the figure had stood.
"There are no traces here!",
Ji Ying said softly:
“The floating ashes on the ground have not been moved, there are no marks, no residue.
The thing just now has absolutely no weight in itself. It has no entity. As I just said, it should...,
It’s really a ghost!”
After Ji Ying finished speaking, she looked up at Chen Zhi's expression.
At this time, everyone became quiet. Everyone stopped quietly, not speaking to each other, but just looking at Chen Zhi, waiting for his next order.
At the same time..., everyone looked at the darkness around them with some taboo.
"Orange~~",
Fat Wei had been walking among the warriors just now. Now he came around from the side. He looked around first, then approached Chen Zhi and said in a very low voice:
"Chengzi, let me tell you something,
You must never disbelieve the things passed down from our ancestors!
In fact, let’s not talk about whether this thing is a ghost or not...
But think about it, any of the particularities and taboos in our previous legends are not tied to these dead people?
We all said we didn’t believe it, we didn’t believe it!
But in the end we have no choice but to disbelieve!
We all saw it with our own eyes just now. That thing tnd doesn’t even have a physical body. If it’s not a ghost, what is it?”
"There should be no real ghosts in this world!",
Chen Zhi was still looking ahead with his eyebrows furrowed.
"The existence of ghosts is illogical. If ghosts exist in this world, then everything we see now cannot have a real form, and the foundation for this world will not exist!"
"Hey~~~, why do you think so seriously?
Nothing in this world is so certain!",
Fat Wei lowered his voice and said something, and then looked at the darkness ahead with some fear,
"I think what Bai Ke said to you makes sense. You should think about it carefully.
He said that there is no real size in this world, everything is the same, and there is no fixed form.
According to this theory, the life and death we see may not be the real life and death. Then this ghost place may really have ghosts! That..."
Just as Fat Wei said this, a warrior suddenly made a dangerous gesture, signaling everyone to silence.
The level of this signal is very high and can only be done in extremely urgent situations.
After seeing this gesture, everyone immediately held their breath and looked forward. At this time, an incredible sight appeared in front of them~~~
I saw a figure standing there at the corner of the passage ahead.
He leaned slightly and stood at the border between searchlight and darkness.
That was the ghost they had just seen, and his appearance was even clearer now. He lowered his head at an angle that humans could not achieve, as if his head had been chopped off and only the skin was attached!
His face was still covered with a rag, and large areas of blood were reflected from behind the cloth.
The figure stood there fixedly, appearing and disappearing in the darkness, being illuminated by the searchlights of the warriors from time to time, and disappearing into the darkness again and again. The feeling was really terrifying and indescribable.
"When did he stand there? I didn't notice it at all...",
Ji Ying was the first to react, turned her head and asked Chen Zhi through lip language,
"Is he going to attack us?
If there is no entity, our physical skills will not be able to use our strength, then we..."
Ji Ying obviously hesitated when she said this, then turned back with a livid face and looked at the figure in the darkness.
This time she looked at it carefully for a long time. After that, she turned back and said to Chen Zhi through lip language:
"Clan leader, he has no shadow..."
"Yeah?",
Chen Zhi frowned and looked forward again. Under the weak searchlight, he saw the figure standing there steadily. His body was slender, slightly taller than normal humans, and his body was hunched like a
Like an eel standing up, its middle finger is long and squeaking as if it has no bones.
The searchlight illuminated his entire body, but there was really no shadow under his feet!
Chinese legends about ghosts have existed since ancient times. People are very afraid of the world after death. There are legends about hell and the king of hell. The souls of the dead have always been the most terrifying place in people's brains.
According to legend, people become ghosts after death, and ghosts are reborn in the underworld. They are harmful to people, are weightless and invisible, and are afraid of human saliva. They can turn into beasts when touched, but ghosts have no shadow because they have no entity and can disappear at any time.
Appear.
The thing in front of me is obviously no different from the legendary ghost!
Even if I look for any excuse, I can't imagine what else it could be.
Just when everyone was staring at the ghost, they saw the figure shake slightly, and then the whole body floated. This kind of floating was not the body walking quickly, but real floating.
Like a ball of weightless air, it slowly floated forward and then disappeared into the darkness.
"Clan leader, do you want to follow?",
Baojiu jumped forward like lightning and asked Chen Zhi over the wireless.
At the same time, the chain ax in his hand had also been raised,
"Chief, do you need your men to take him down? He is hiding there, I can see him~~"
"Don't touch it!",
Chen Zhi solemnly ordered over the wireless:
"His appearance here is not necessarily out of malice, maybe... he originally wanted to lead the way for us!
Let him show up~~"
After Chen Zhi finished speaking, he patted Ji Ying's shoulder with his hand.
Ji Ying then jumped lightly onto the roof beam, lowered her long knife, and stretched out her arms. At the same time, her searchlight also shone into the darkness ahead.
With this weak light, everyone could see that the shadow was indeed hiding there. He was floating gently, his head was hanging down, and the cloth on his body was floating leisurely, without any sense of life.
"Follow him!",
Chen Zhi gave an order over the wireless, then patted Fat Wei, and the two of them walked up together.
Subsequently, 50 blue-ribbon warriors followed, forming three formations, and began to march forward with the ghost of unknown origin...
