Chapter 46: Water ghosts
The sudden change made me puzzled, and I slowly turned my head back and looked behind me, and then I sucked in a breath of cool air, my heart beating fast in fear.
Behind me, I do not know when appeared a cloaked woman, the woman was wearing a white robe, even in the water, clothes are not half wet signs; her body swollen some terrible, as if it is bad seven or eight months pregnant women; the most frightening is her head of hair floating in the water swaying long hair, each hair is several meters long, swaying, as if it is a viper! The most frightening thing is that her long hair is swaying in the water, each strand is several meters long, swaying as if it were a poisonous snake ready to strike, and it could send a bad blow to me.
In the past, I have seen a female ghost in the chaotic graveyard, but that female ghost has a very good figure, even if there are no features, it is not as scary as this female ghost in front of me, the woman in front of me, her hair half covered her face, the small half of her cheeks that are exposed, there is a hollow eye socket, her face is full of rotting flesh and blood, and you can even see that there are worms squirming underneath that rotting face skin.
Seeing her, although I was panicked in my heart, but how to say that it is also a maoshan master, hall master, how can I be shocked by a female ghost, I hurriedly removed the wooden sword behind me and yelled at her, "Tian Ling Ling ......"
Just ready to threaten her a bit, let her know how to leave, this is the epiphany that it is in the water, mouth a mouth, a large number of river water suddenly squeezed into my mouth, I hurriedly closed my mouth! It was at this moment that the ropes binding my body tensed up, and my body was pulled uncontrollably against the boulder behind me.
The female ghost raised her head slightly, and her mouth, which was no longer distinguishable, actually revealed a trace of contemptuous smile!
For a moment, I was angry and scared! In a panic, the wooden sword in my hand was washed away by the river, and immediately after that, the female ghost flung her long hair, and a large number of black hair strands came at me like a dragnet.
Nima! Would I be afraid of a female ghost?
After cursing in the bottom of my heart, my body finally had a certain degree of freedom, however, just as I was about to make a move, the rope around my waist once again drove my body into the boulder.
The intense pain spread to my brain almost instantly, I looked at Fatty and Old Hu above me in annoyance, they were obviously scared a little out of their wits, desperately swimming upstream, however, the river changed their trajectory, straight up became diagonal, the rope around their waist had been taut.
Their bodies were pulled backward a little distance backwards, and then they hurried upstream again, whereupon my body once again tragically hit a rock.
"Holy shit!"
I couldn't help but curse Old Hu and Fatty countless times in my heart, seeing that the female ghost's hair had already attacked me overwhelmingly, for a moment, I was shocked, in the water, the usual charms couldn't be used, so I could only take out a compass from my waist, which I had always carried with me.
Ancient compass, unusual Taoist used for divination or feng shui use. However, inside Maoshan Taoism, there is a trick that can be used to deter Yin objects. Although I had never used it before, I couldn't care less now, and after biting my fingertip, I pressed my finger on the compass, drew a strange symbol with blood, and then turned the pointer in the center of the compass.
The compass quickly turned, and the spinning pointer gathered the blood that had been washed away by the river to the tip of the pointer, and then I hurriedly shone the compass at the female ghost.
"Ah!"
The female ghost let out a shrill cry, and the compass emitted a dazzling multicolored light in the water that shot straight at the female ghost.
Luckily, there was some diffused light in the water no matter if it was day or night. The compass was like a spotlight mirror, focusing and converging the beams of light just a bit. And all that was needed to activate the compass was essence blood and the basic arts of Maoshan.
Any ghost or monster was afraid of light, let alone a demon-subduing light with Taoist techniques. The female ghost was clearly frightened, her long, flowing hair swinging wildly.
Staying where she was was a proper wait for death! In the water, I couldn't utilize all of my magic spells, and just as I was about to run away, I suddenly realized that I couldn't move my feet, and when I looked down, I couldn't help but say: It's over!
Behind the boulder and the bottom of the river bordering the place, a large amount of sediment sinking, a small vortex continues to expand, the surrounding debris and sediment quickly to this side of the convergence, the ghost of the haphazardly swinging long hair do not know when has moved the boulder for a distance, forming a small hole that can not be seen at the bottom of the depths of the hole.
The hole was small at first, and along with the expansion of the whirlpool, the hole grew larger and larger! And my feet were sucked in by the vortex, and the water around my body had become murky. I desperately hugged the boulder for fear of being sucked in, however, I suddenly felt my head being hit by something, my brain went blank, and my eyes were starry.
Immediately after that, I felt as if I had fallen into a bottomless abyss, countless miscellaneous things were crossing right over me, and having been knocked to the ground, I didn't even have the strength to raise my eyelids under the intense pain.
Finished!
I felt like I was definitely done for!
Death came so quickly, without even the slightest warning. Countless images flashed through my mind, among them were my parents, my master, and of course, there was also Hando's figure.
The feeling of powerless despair made me not have the slightest sense of resistance, letting my body go with the flow! I know, I'm afraid I have to reincarnate, only, I feel ashamed of Zen Master Zhang! I'm afraid that the Maoshan arts will be lost on me.
The pain in my body turned out to be more and more intense, and my mind also became more and more chaotic, until it slowly became blank, and the pain gradually disappeared, I knew that this was the embodiment of the end of life.
Well, when I thought that I would definitely be killed by the dark current touching the reef, my body was suddenly rushed up by a powerful current, the water pressure around me disappeared instantly, and then I only felt my body falling heavily onto the uneven ground!
"Ah!"
I felt like my bones were about to fall apart, especially my back being pushed against a hard object to the point of specialized pain. Until then, I could no longer carry it, my brain went blank, my eyes closed and my legs stretched out ......
"Half Immortal, wake up, wake up! We are here!"
I don't know how long it took, the blurred voice was as gloomy and cold as if it came from hell, I only felt that my head was heavy and my body was in pain, even breathing was a bit difficult.
"Half Immortal, don't close your eyes! Make an effort to open them!"
Old Hu's anxious voice assaulted me, but I had a hard time accomplishing his task, even though I tried to open my eyes again and again.
In a daze, it seemed as if I was moved a few times, then I felt a wave of hot air coming in, a wave of hot air was blown in through my mouth, immediately after that, my brain slowly became conscious while the pain gradually became stronger, I finally opened my eyes, yet my body couldn't move, and after screaming miserably, I looked at the two disheveled people beside me and said, "Quickly take me to the hospital. "
"This ......" Fatty's head was wearing a miner's lamp, and his face showed a difficult color.
Only then did I look around, this was an empty cavern, there was a large amount of stagnant water and countless rubble and mud on the ground, and there were even some naturally formed stalactites above my head.
"What kind of place is this?" I shook my head, trying to clear it.
"Then which one knows? Old Hu and I have only just woken up a short while ago." Fatty helped my body up, then said with a smile, "But Half Immortal, we've most likely arrived at Cao Cao's Yin Residence."
"What!" My eyes rounded and I hurriedly climbed up, just as I was about to stand up, a sudden excruciating pain came from my leg, "Ah!"
"Don't move, you've got a cut on your calf! The back and body also have while different degrees of injuries, fortunately nothing fatal." Old Hu, who was also carrying a miner's lamp on his head, said methodically.
I looked down at my body, my clothes were torn with many holes all over my body, every hole was bloody, the most conspicuous was the cut on my calf, extending from my calf all the way to my ankle, crimson blood continuously flowed out from the wound, and my back, I couldn't even straighten up my back.
Old Hu was helping me with the wound, and the only thing I could do was to clench my teeth, but the intense pain still made me pass out a few more times.
By the time I woke up again, my whole body was covered in bandages, and my body was lying on a boulder, Fatty and Old Hu saw me wake up and their tired faces revealed a pleased smile, I smiled with difficulty, and once again, I took a serious look around.
The entire cavern wasn't big, it was only about a hundred square meters, half of it was deep, bottomless waters, the other half was barely considered land, but there was also a lot of stagnant water on the ground, and a large amount of messy rocks and mud were scattered haphazardly.
A natural stone stalactite overhead, from time to time there would be a drop of water dripping down, in the cavern issued a crisp sound of water drops, and not far behind us, there is a stone crevice about sixty centimeters wide, the entire crevice overlooking, can not be seen to the end, as if it was a mountain peak was split in half by a horizontal slash, unusually steep.
Obviously, the two of them and I were swept into this place by the whirlpool.
After seeing the environment clearly, I smiled bitterly, "It's good to be alive!"
"Yeah! We are blessed to be alive after a great calamity." Fatty said with a few loud laughs.
Both he and Old Hu had injuries on their bodies, but they were also treated briefly.
I smiled similarly to them! I still had a lot of heart palpitations from the incident not too long ago.
Just as we were all taking a long breath and preparing to take a good rest in this place, suddenly the turbid water in the area of the waters ahead of us slowly turned black, and the area of blackness grew larger and larger.
I just took a look, and I felt unusually panicked in my heart, the large waters were almost instantly blackened, although it was not yet completely clear, I suddenly thought of what might have caused this scene, and hurriedly said to Old Hu and Fatty, "Not good! Run!"
Old Hu and Fatty also sensed that something was wrong, they hurriedly stood up, set me up, and ran towards the stone crevice.
The stone crevice is not wide, squeezed in front of the fat man obviously some difficulty, front chest and back are pasted on the stone wall, I was sandwiched in the middle of them, two people assisted me sideways through the crevice.
"Holy shit, that guy is following us!"
While we were moving with difficulty, Old Hu suddenly yelled out, I hurriedly looked back to the rear, a woman with long hair slowly floated to the stone block where we were just now, at this moment, she slowly raised her head at us, her face that was so decayed that it didn't have a single inch of intact skin appeared exceptionally horrifying, "Jiejie, found you guys!"
She let out a sinister and deep laugh, her deformed mouth moved along with it, and a pile of rotting flesh dripped down from her twisted face to the ground.
