Chapter 66 The Moment of Life and Death
Liu Xueyan exclaimed and let go of the child in her hand and retreated to me. I saw half of Liu Xueyan's face turned into flesh and blood, revealing her bones. Although she was healing at a speed visible to the naked eye, she was still shocked.
The child, known as the ghost child, has turned into a green-gray body, with two sharp horns on his head, blood-red eyes, and two fangs. Although his height has not changed, his muscles are so strong that he has torn his clothes, revealing layers of scales on his skin, and a red mark on his forehead is particularly conspicuous. I remember that the talisman used by Professor Tang was very similar to it.
Li En and Wang Shiyu were completely unable to accept what was happening in front of them and both fell into a coma.
The old man straightened his waist and changed the decayed breath of half of his body buried in the loess before, becoming full of energy. His face, which was set off by the hooked nose, was ferocious, and the deep wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were squeezed together. Two rays of light came out from the turbid old eyes. He smiled at me with a sly smile, waved his hand, and a dark red sword with two fingers wide appeared in his hand.
"Slaying Yin Sword?!"
I wondered, "What's the matter of killing the Yin Sword?"
"It is to use infant bones that are less than a year old when forging and tempered with human blood, which has a special effect on good ghosts and zombies."
Listening to Liu Xueyan's explanation, I know that there are good or bad ghosts. For example, Liu Xueyan is good, and the other party's ghost boy is obviously bad. The momentum of the two of them can be felt. Moreover, after the ghost boy transformed into his true body, he kept drooling at the bodies of Li En and Wang Shiyu who were lying on the ground.
The old man with a hook nose patted the ghost head's head and smiled sinisterly: "Don't worry, when you deal with these two people, the souls of these two people will belong to you."
The ghost boy was very excited, and a drool flowed out of the corner of his mouth. When the green liquid touched the grass leaves, it immediately withered and turned dry and yellow.
Half of Liu Xueyan's face has recovered almost. Although she can still see the tender red meat, it is much better than seeing the bones just now. I asked in a low voice: "Can you win?"
"If you work hard, you will be sure." Liu Xueyan was very serious.
My little heart was so cold that I heard this sentence. Although I no longer had any hope when I saw the ghost boy's figure, when I heard Liu Xueyan say it in person, the pitiful hope was completely shattered.
The old man with Eagle Nose waved the Yin Sword, and four more talismans were added in his other hand. The four colors were different. He silently recited spells in his mouth. The old man with Eagle Nose's hair was automatically lit up without wind, waiting for the talismans to burn out. Four earthen buns were bulging at the land under the old man's feet. The earthen buns broke, and four ghost children emerged, blue, red, yellow and gray.
Except for the different skin color, it looks exactly the same as the previous ghost boy.
Liu Xueyan exclaimed, "No, he wants to use the Five Ghosts to carry the coffin, let's run away."
As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Xueyan took my hand and was about to run away, "What should Li En and the others do?"
"Their goal is to make both of us."
As Liu Xueyan said, after we ran away, five ghost children leaped and chased after us, and the eagle-nosed old man disappeared from the spot.
The laughter of the ghost boy echoed in the whole woods. Liu Xueyan and I lost our way while running and had forgotten where we were. I said, "Do we don't even have a chance? Sooner or later, we will be caught by them if we run away like this."
Liu Xueyan shook her head, "I haven't thought of a way yet. However, once the Five Ghosts carry the coffin is surrounded by five little ghosts, we are the dead people lying in the coffin and can't escape even if we want to."
I gave up the idea of turning back and striking hard, and followed Liu Xueyan through the woods. When I passed a pit, my foot stepped on a stone and sprained it. Although Liu Xueyan carried me up as fast as possible, she was still caught up by the ghost boy and surrounded us in the middle.
The ghost boy had an iron chain in his hand. After standing at the right position, the iron chain roared out. In order not to hurt me, Liu Xueyan held a few iron whips on her body. Her skin, which was originally crystal clear and like a peach, suddenly burst into flesh. However, the ghost boy became even more excited. The iron chain wrapped around and penetrated Liu Xueyan's limbs and I fell to the ground.
I picked up the stones on the ground and smashed them at the ghost boy, but was pierced by a Yin-Slaying Sword flying over. Liu Xueyan shouted bitterly, and before I could look back, I fell in a pool of blood. The Yin-Slaying Sword wanted to fly out and continue to attack Liu Xueyan. I grinned and blood overflowed from the corner of my mouth.
Holding the sword body tightly with both hands, no matter how hard the Yin-Slaying Sword was torn, I couldn't break free. Liu Xueyan's heart-wrenching cry touched me, but I couldn't let go. The ghost boy began the summoning ceremony. Once the ceremony was completed, Liu Xueyan would completely fall into the hands of the Eagle Nose Old Man.
I can't give up. The Yin-Slaying Sword is no longer moving. I pulled it out of my chest and held it in my hand and rushed towards the Red Ghost Child. It smiled sinisterly, and with a sniff, his arm pierced through my lower abdomen. I endured the pain and used all my last bit of strength to cut it down with one sword. The Red Ghost Child's arm was also cut off. With a scream, I fell backwards.
The red ghost boy also let go of the iron chain in his hand. The summoning ceremony was interrupted and Liu Xueyan's crisis was relieved. I looked at Liu Xueyan who was lying in a pool of blood and his limbs were penetrated. I knew that I had reached the limit, so I was relying on Liu Xueyan below.
I saw a transparent little girl's hair fluttering out, half of her body had completely turned into a snake, and her amber vertical pupils showed a cold murderous intent like a tide. A giant python entrenched beside her right arm, roaring towards the sky.
This momentum stimulated the ghost boy even more excited. The five ghost boys stood in formation again and focused their attention on Liu Xueyan. When the chain flew out again, the giant python broke away and opened his bloody mouth at the red ghost boy who was still in the weak stage.
He swallowed him in one bite, but the iron chain behind him followed, and the giant python had to bite off the upper body of the red ghost boy in one bite and dodge the attack behind him.
Although the red ghost child's body soon grew back, its body became even weaker. The five ghosts must carry the coffin with the five ghosts, which means that the ritual cannot be carried out in a short period of time.
The Five Ghosts Children understood this truth, and even if they were killed, they could not kill Liu Xueyan, so they escaped and ran away. After the Five Ghosts disappeared, the Yin-Slaying Sword flew up and wanted to make the last bit of resistance, but was knocked away by Liu Xueyan with his tongue.
"hiss--"
Liu Xueyan spit out a scarlet letter and shot a cold look at the direction where the Yin-Slaying Sword flew away. Back in her body, after the ghost boy disappeared, the iron chain automatically dissipated, leaving only the blood hole on her body. Liu Xueyan crawled beside me, curled up her legs, and let my head rest on her snow-white and soft thighs.
Liu Xueyan sobbed in a low voice, and tears like ice crystals fell on my face. I opened my eyes and saw a face that was fascinating and loving.
I reached out and stroked Liu Xueyan's cheek with bloody fingers, and whispered: "Have I seen you in my previous life?"
