Returning from the abyss

Chapter 704 Shadow
Lu Ping is a person who will do what he thinks. After leaving the alley, he first called his familiar friends and told them what he had discovered.

However, Lu Ning did not have too much expectation for this - she saw a certain kind of confidence from Lu Ping, Jin Yuntai and Song Caiwei, that is, in the face of ghosts and monsters, they believe that evil can prevail, and that gathering the power of Taoism will definitely defeat them .

But is this faith realistic?

Lu Ning tossed the paper talisman in her hand again. Its shortcomings cannot be traced exactly. As long as there is yin energy remaining, it will respond. It may be okay as an early warning, but it is used to find ghosts... as long as those ghosts stay around in the city It's hard to find it if you put your own yin energy down.

And Lu Ping's phone call lasted about 15 minutes. He must have told several different people, and when he came back, he inevitably looked a little disappointed.

"Looks like you don't believe it?"

"They said... Now Taoist priests from all over Gengwu City are coming here, those ghosts may not have time to hide, even Baishen probably won't dare to show up. What they told me was to accept being together all the time, and even persuaded me Be with them." Lu Ping sighed, "Even if the Dharmakaya ghost is killed, can't they be alerted..."

"Senior brother, this means that each school and faction has its own abilities. We just need to take care of ourselves now, so as not to be killed. And Li Wenyue, do you think about your plan today? Such a dangerous goal Appeared, let's not take the initiative to lure the snake out of the hole."

"On the contrary, these powerful ghosts are under certain control and will not be easily drawn out." Lu Ning shook her head, "The plan is going on today, we still have to try our best to find Yin Qi, even if we can't find the body, we can mark it There is a preparation for their general scope of activities. Zaoyuanzhuang Baili—no, even if it is only a few days after our Solitaire started, even Zaoyuanzhuang has not appeared in the Solitaire story, so the hidden person should also It’s only been two or three days, it’s impossible to keep Yin Qi everywhere.”

"Okay, okay, but you have to withdraw as soon as you are in danger. I really don't know how you can be so brave if you don't know Taoism." Qi Mei shrugged.

The day quickly passed in such a city-wide search.The Yin Qi left by the group of ghosts was also found in four or five places. These places are all in remote alleys, old houses that have not been lived in for a long time, or abandoned warehouses, and obviously they do not leave a little bit every time. "Food dregs", there are traces of fighting left in some places, but if these traces are seen by ordinary people, they will probably be regarded as some armed fights that took place here before.

The marks pierced by sharp blades, smashed by blunt objects, cut and rolled up edges, dragged marks, scraped... Lu Ning took photos of all the marks, and she became more and more surprised.

That's not what one weapon does.From the previous video, except for the leader who used a nail stick, the ghosts who obeyed the order didn't have anything like a weapon in their hands.Although it is not ruled out that ghosts can change their shapes and use their hands to play the effects of these types of weapons, but why do they need to use so many weapon forms to attack in one battle?

Or are these ghosts hunting in a siege stance, as shown in the video?But Lu Ning had asked Lu Ping that the so-called battle between ghosts and monsters was just a show of strength and weakness unless they restrained each other. Even a hundred ghosts with 99 yin qi could not defeat a ghost with [-] yin qi.Ghosts cannot use Taoism to weaken the yin energy of the opponent, this gap is the gap.

As the sky was getting late, Lu Ning also started to drive to the park in the center of the city.She stopped the car near the park, handed over the driver's seat to Qi Mei, then waved to the worried Teng Xuan and Yan Zidan, and walked to a building next to the park.

It was just after four o'clock in the cold twelfth lunar month, and the sky had already begun to darken.Lu Ning took out her phone and slowly browsed through the information she had collected. After Lu Ping left, the strong yin energy on her body should have begun to spread, but it will take time to attract more ghosts.

She opened the yin energy map, and the ghost closest to here is a ghost with a broken leg that doesn't even have a name. Less than the starting target.And when the more powerful ghosts start to move at night, they will hide in their dens.

It looked a little funny, but in fact, two people climbed up the building behind Lu Ning because of the lure of this ghost, jumped down and broke their legs.

Crack, crack...

Lu Ning heard a sticky sound coming from her ear, she squinted slightly, and saw this ghost.The long hair covered the whole head, and the skinny and pale hands were pulling the floor, and its legs were broken at the knees, as if it had been crushed by something, and the blood dragged behind it for about ten meters.

Of course, this blood can only be seen by the target it chooses, and there are actually a few pedestrians passing by around Lu Ning, but the yin energy on her body is too tempting... No, it's a little more attractive.

Of course, Lu Ning will not be afraid. With the heart-cleaning talisman presented by Xuanyou, she will not be affected by low-level spiritual induction at all. What's more, it seems that this ghost has become delirious because of its greedy eyes. .

"Woo~~ah——"

The ghost let out a low cry, and stretched out his hand to Lu Ning, and the pedestrians around also hurried away, as if they all remembered something important.This is the natural repulsion of human beings after the yin qi condenses, and it is also because there are not many people around here, and the yin qi cannot be dispersed, so it becomes avoidance.

The nameless miserable ghost on the ground was still crying. It didn't even cultivate the instinct of ambush and sneak attack like the nine-faced baby. It just continuously released its own inducing breath to Lu Ning, which was its only ability.

"It's pathetic."

When the ghost was about to touch Lu Ning's ankle, she took a step back, squatted down, and pulled out the pair of scissors she named "Sawtooth of Destiny". Without opening it, she directly pierced the back of the ghost's hand.

This time I really cried.

Becoming a ghost probably has a tragic past, but Lu Ning has no sympathy for people or ghosts she doesn't know at all, at most she sighs with emotion, and then continues to attack.

She pulled out the scissors, and what the rune brought out was no longer Yin Qi, but some kind of unknown translucent mist with light gray spots.The ghost screamed and jumped up vigorously to catch Lu Ning, but the scissors in Lu Ning's hand passed through the gap between its arms and directly pierced its head.

As if a balloon had been punctured, with a soft cracking sound, the ghost exploded, and the mist filled in its body spread to the surroundings, and the first symbol on the sawtooth of fate in Lu Ning's hand was also destroyed. Filled with gray powder.

"I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing..."

Lu Ning muttered.There are a total of 49 symbols on the sawtooth of fate, and she carefully counted them twice.After all, this is a magic weapon directly recognized by the distribution center, and it must have sufficient lethality against ghosts, just like the white ring in his hand before, although he doesn't know what it is useful for, but it can definitely be used to deal with ghosts.

Then, two more ghosts appeared at the corner of the street.One looked very much like a zombie in Qing Dynasty official uniform, but it was walking, with white eyes and a bloody mouth.While the other one was wrapped in a cloud of black air, more than a dozen eyeballs were connected by nerves to protrude from the black air, and kept turning in circles.

It's a pity that Lu Ning knew the details of them a long time ago. She stood still and waited for the two ghosts to slowly approach.The zombie-like ghost is called Feng Wang, and the eyeball ghost is called Rotten Nest. With a name, it is obviously more powerful than the previous one.King Feng can read the fear in people's hearts and turn it into the appearance of fear, and then devour the spirit overflowing from fear.The rotting nest is that when people see it, it will always appear in the corner of their vision. If you try to avoid the place where it exists, the rotten nest will directly enter the head, and it will take three days for the brain to rot into pus. Take the victim's eyeballs.

In all fairness, these two horror legends that are being created are already considered to be of the level of ghosts, but it is a pity that they are all sold by Yan Guan Liulu.Eye Guan Liulu didn't clearly write down the weaknesses, but Lu Ning didn't need it to write clearly—spiritual and psychological things can receive some training in the distribution center. After understanding these, it is too difficult to decipher the two ghosts that attack through psychological factors easy.

When the two ghosts advanced to within five meters of Lu Ning, Feng Wang had already begun to blur and deform, and all the eyeballs of the Rotten Nest were staring at Lu Ning.However, Lu Ning rushed straight towards King Feng, and at the same time tapped her temples with her fingers to slightly adjust her mental state.

As long as the rotting nest looks at it, it is a non-threatening ghost. It doesn't even matter if you blink or anything. It will try its best to make itself appear in the sight of the victim. As long as it can bear it, it can even see it while sleeping. Just hunt for novelties, and it won't do anything to you.

At the moment when Lu Ning approached quickly, Feng Wang was distorted and instantly turned into another rotten nest.

A group of eyeballs with no ability to attack.

Lu Ning had already come to the front at the moment Feng Wang had just completed his transformation, and he opened the sawtooth of fate in his hand like lightning and pierced the black mist protruding from the eyeballs. With a click, some liquid like mud She rushed out from inside, although Lu Ning's arm passed by, she didn't feel any discomfort.After cutting off King Feng, she stomped on her feet, turned around and rushed to the real rotten nest.Obviously, this ghost has never seen anyone coming up directly to meet it, and lacks wisdom, but it still floats over with its eyeballs waving.

The second cut, this time red and yellow pus flowing out from the inside of the rotting nest.Soon, the two clouds of black mist collapsed to the ground like deflated balls, and slowly turned into pieces, and those eyeballs also turned into blood.

Two more symbols are filled in.

One or two ghosts, as long as you know how they hurt people, the only thing that is scary is the appearance.But Lu Ning attracted more than just one or two.

New ghosts began to appear, and the sky began to be overcast. Lu Ning's mind was still awake under the effect of the heart-cleaning charm. She carefully went through the descriptions of each ghost in the map of Yin Qi in her mind, waiting for the snowball to overtake. Roll bigger.

"Is there any event tonight? Night Walk of Hundred Ghosts is not a custom here, is it?"

The man who drove the ghost stood in an apartment building, looking suspiciously at the thick gathering of Yin Qi not far away.There is a kind of blinding method on the periphery of these yin qi, which cuts off the prying of Taoism, but this person didn't notice it.Because this person is practicing the technique of ghosts, he will not be isolated and he will not be able to see that layer of protection.

"Those little soldiers can't hold back any longer." The male ghost whispered beside him, "Although the solidification is not as solid as the dharmakaya ghost, such a huge gathering of yin energy is a great attraction for any ghost who likes this thing .Master, do you want to punish me?"

"Punishment? I don't have the time to beat all the soldiers. So the so-called parade of ghosts also has this factor? Ghosts gather, Yin Qi attracts more ghosts, snowball?"

"Yes." The female ghost replied, "The power of ghosts lies in absorbing yin energy and fear. The former shapes the body, while the latter shapes luck. Both are equally important. For a sane ghost, it can also suppress these instincts , and if these soldiers were not under the command of the general of the master, I am afraid they would have poured into that piece of Yin Qi and become one of the army of ghosts."

"Has the source been identified?"

"I don't dare to go deep. If it's just ghosts gathering in groups, they will probably live in peace, but if a group of ghosts fight for each other... fierce battles are inevitable."

"With the strength of the two of you, are you still afraid of these brats?"

The male ghost hurriedly said: "No, master, if the master gives the order, we will definitely obey. It's just to explain that under this kind of Yin Qi, it's different from fighting one-on-one or facing a group of ghosts. If a dispute arises, Cannibalize each other, and the position of strong and weak can be changed suddenly, so careless."

"Leave this one alone. I know the strength of the two of you very well. With my two best sets of ghost equipment, you still have enough power even if you face three or four sieges of Dharmakaya ghosts." After understanding the situation, these ghosts may have been resources for us to obtain ghost weapons. If they were wasted in this yin qi, wouldn't we come here for nothing? I don't expect to really kill Baishen. won't show up."

"Since that's the case, I'll take five ghosts who have become corps leaders to investigate, but I'm afraid the master will have to do it himself to suppress the soldiers." The male ghost bowed his head.

"Don't worry, if you check that there are no difficult guys, I will let them go in and make up for it. Isn't it just a game of raising Gu? If I can train two corporals to come out, I will make a lot of money."

"No." The male and female ghosts bowed their heads and clasped their fists, then turned into shadows and left the room.

At this time, Lu Ning had already filled eleven symbols on the sawtooth of fate.Her combat area was further compressed, gradually approaching the gate of the park.The strength of these ghosts lies in their special abilities, just like what often appears in horror stories, but there are very few ghosts who actually have physical means to kill unconditionally.Some of the ghosts who could have started the ghost domain couldn't play tricks under the interference of so many peers, and their strength was severely compromised. This is what Lu Ning needs.

Finally, she felt her body, which was heated up from exercise, and the area on her chest suddenly cooled down—the Yin Qi Talisman sensed the same breath.

This time, it won't be any food scraps.
