dragon hunter

Chapter 215
The cemetery is dimly lit, and we walk carefully to avoid stepping on the wreckage under our feet, these are poor people.

"Ghosts, there are so many ghosts!" Yin Xian'er's voice trembled, her tone full of horror.

I was taken aback for a moment, and then I noticed that human faces emerged on the stone walls on both sides, and the expressions on the faces were hideous because of the pain.

These are the unjust souls of craftsmen trapped in the tomb after death. They cannot be reincarnated and can only be tortured day after day.

Fatty Wang, this coward, is more agile than a rabbit, and he scurried behind me.

Being stared at by so many pairs of eyes, I felt a little terrified, subconsciously took out the Gouyu sword and held it tightly in my hand.

Those wronged souls slowly squeezed out from the stone wall and floated towards us.

Just as I was about to make a move, my heart moved, I threw a handful of talisman papers around, and began to chant the mantra of death in a low voice.

In fact, with just a hooked jade sword, I am sure to destroy this group of wronged souls.

But these are craftsmen who died in vain. They were tortured here and beaten to death after death. This is too unfair to them.

I tried to use the reincarnation mantra to transform this group of souls, not for anything else, just for peace of mind.

Fatty Wang imitated the example and recited the Sutra of Salvation to Human Beings at the side, a layer of white light rose and enveloped us all.

After those innocent souls walked into the range of the white light, their faces no longer had grim expressions, and they stood there quietly, with peaceful expressions on their faces.

It took a lot of effort to transform these wronged souls, but it was very worthwhile. I had a faint intuition that I had already touched the threshold of the fourth hexagram of Qianlong.

For the hexagrams of Qianlong tattoo, the first few hexagrams are relatively easy to open, but starting from the fourth hexagram, the difficulty increases geometrically for each hexagram.

I have some expectations in my heart, I don't know what kind of ability improvement the fourth hexagram will bring to me.

"Hey, don't be dazed, let's go quickly." Fatty Wang stretched out his hand and pushed me, interrupting my thoughts.

I came back to my senses, quickly followed Seventeenth Master, and continued to explore.

After walking for about ten minutes, there was the sound of water flowing in front of me. I wondered why there was the sound of water in the tomb, so I secretly raised my vigilance.

"I'll go, what's that in front, why are there still a few boats?" Fatty Wang shined a flashlight ahead, his tone full of disbelief.

I looked along the light of the flashlight, and my heart was also full of shock. I knew that Cao Ling was not simple, but I didn't expect to meet such a big hand.

In front of the tomb passage, there is a straight river channel dug by hand, with stone walls on both sides, and the sound of rushing water comes from the river channel.

Three small boats linked together by iron chains stopped aside. The river course was unbelievably long. The front was foggy, and the flashlight beams could not penetrate it.

"Do you still remember that I said that ancestor Cao Cao had three regrets?" the old farmer said suddenly.

"Remember, what's wrong?" I asked subconsciously.

"If I'm not mistaken, the first difficulty in Cao Lingzhong is right in front of us." The old farmer looked serious.

"Grandpa, don't be tricky, let's be straightforward." Fatty Wang scratched his ears and cheeks.

"The river, and the boats connected by iron chains, what can you think of?" The old farmer glanced at us.

"Burning Chibi!" I blurted out, this battle in history is so famous.

"That's right. After you get on the boat, you must be careful and pay attention to fire prevention." The old farmer turned his head and walked forward.

With a heavy face, I looked at the three small boats in front of me. When the old farmer first entered Caoling, he said that Cao Cao designed three levels based on the three regrets in his life, and this is the first level we encountered.

The boat was not big, and we happened to have six people, so we divided into three groups, with two people in each boat.

Li Xiaolei, Yin Xian'er, and Fatty Wang are the weakest in battle, so each of us will take one with us so that we can take care of them nearby.

Fatty Wang and I were in the same group. This coward was dawdling and unwilling to get on the boat. In the end, seeing two girls who were braver than him, he couldn't help but jumped up reluctantly.

There was wood pulp on the boat. We picked up the wood pulp and slowly slid the boat.

The sound of rushing water and the sound of iron chains echoed in the tomb.

After a few minutes, nothing happened. The tension on Fatty Wang's face disappeared, and he said disapprovingly, "It's so scary, isn't it a shit?"

I was about to speak when Li Xiaolei cut me off with an exclamation.

"Look, what's that floating on the water behind?" Li Xiaolei said nervously.

I took the flashlight from Fatty Wang and shone it towards the river behind, and saw a layer of dark things floating on the river water, looking a little greasy.

"No, that's black fire oil, hurry up and row the boat." Seventeenth Master shouted in a hurry.

My heart tightened, I was really afraid of something, and in the blink of an eye, the black fire oil floating on the water started to burn.

Looking at the raging flames, which moved quickly to this side, I was so frightened that I broke out in cold sweat, and waved the wooden pulp quickly, trying to stay away from the flames.

"Fatty, I'm ashamed of your sister, hurry up and row." Seeing that cowardly Fatty Wang, I was frightened into a fool, and kicked him.

Fatty Wang came to his senses, let out a strange cry, and waved the wooden pulp vigorously.

Out of the corner of my eye, I saw a black shadow flying out of a stone wall and shot towards this side. I subconsciously blocked it with a wooden pulp.

My arm was numb, a crossbow arrow fell on the board of the boat, and my heart was pounding nervously. This broken boat is not fast enough, and I have to beware of cold arrows. Isn’t it obvious that I want us to be burned alive?

Since the first crossbow bolt flew out, there have been crossbow bolts flying out one after another from the stone walls on both sides, which seriously affected our rowing speed.

Seeing the flames behind me getting closer and closer, my back was soaked in cold sweat, I clenched my teeth, and slid the wood pulp desperately.

Yin Xian'er exclaimed from the side, and I looked sideways nervously, and saw that she was almost shot by a crossbow arrow. Fortunately, the Seventeenth Master who was on the same boat as her reacted quickly and helped her block the crossbow arrow.

"Oh, help!" Fatty Wang on the opposite side panicked, waving the wooden pulp indiscriminately.

I saw a crossbow arrow shining with a cold light, and shot towards Fatty Wang quickly, worried that this bastard would not be able to stop him, so I used wooden pulp to block the arrow for him.

After such a delay, the flames drifting from behind are already close at hand, and I can even feel the temperature above.

"What should I do, is the fat man going to die in this ghost place?" Fatty Wang's face was ashen.

"If you don't row the boat, you will really die." I gave this coward a look.

Under the pressure of death, we worked together and paddled the wood desperately, and finally we were a little far away from the flames behind us.

A series of bubbles bubbled up from the side of the river, and there seemed to be something under the river that was constantly hitting the wood pulp.

"Have any of you seen what is under the water?" Fatty Wang asked nervously.

As soon as the words fell, the water splashed, a strange fish jumped out of the water, opened its mouth and bit me, its teeth were so sharp that it was chilling.

I reacted quickly, waved the wooden paddle, and slapped the strange fish away. Afterwards, I found that my palms were full of sweat.

"Fatty, you are a crow's mouth." I glared at Fatty Wang, every time this guy opened his mouth, bad things would happen.

Fatty Wang looked wronged, and was about to argue, but the critical situation prevented him from opening his mouth.

The sound of water splashes kept ringing, and the strange fish under the water jumped up one after another, attacking us from all directions.

"Quick, a fish has fallen onto the board." Fatty Wang shouted in a panic.

I trampled the strange fish to death with one foot, and focused my attention on vigilance. The three small boats were next to each other, and I was ready to support my companions on both sides.

"Don't just be wary of the strange fish, row the boat quickly, the flames will catch up again." Seventeenth Master said nervously.

I fended off a crossbow arrow and took the time to strike twice. Before I could catch my breath, I was attacked by a strange fish again.

"Fatty, just concentrate on rowing and don't get distracted." I saw that this was not an option, so I stood beside Fatty Wang, protected him, and let him just focus on rowing.

Looking back hastily, I don't know how long the river is, and the front is foggy. I pursed my dry lips, trying to suppress the negative emotions.

Li Xiaolei and the old farmer are in the same boat, the old farmer is not weak, and Li Xiaolei is also a smart person, so I don't have to worry about that for the time being.

After a certain distance, there were no more arrows flying out of the stone walls on both sides, which relieved our pressure.

However, those strange fish in the water still kept harassing us.

A buzzing sound came from the front. I was extremely sensitive to this sound, and turned around in horror.

Above the tomb passage in front, there are several huge beehives hanging, and a large group of unknown poisonous bees flew towards this side.

"My god, hurry up, play the flute to control the bee colony." Fatty Wang was so frightened that he almost dropped the wooden pulp.

I smiled wryly, the copper flute is good at controlling the swarm of insects, but there are constantly strange fishes harassing it underwater, so how can I play it with peace of mind.

"This is a killer bee. I happen to know a secret method that can restrain bee swarms." Yin Xian'er, who had always kept a low profile, suddenly said.

I was overjoyed, and immediately urged the other party to cast spells quickly, and Master Shi Qi and I protected her together.

Yin Xian'er put down the wooden pulp, took out a square wooden box, and began to concentrate on casting spells. Master Seventeen and I stopped the strange fish from harassing her.

The three wooden boats are connected by iron chains. The old farmer has not stopped rowing, and we are still moving forward slowly.

And on my side, Fatty Wang also paddled once and for all, so that we would not be caught up by the flames immediately.

After chanting the incantation, a puff of black smoke rose from the wooden box in Yin Xian'er's hand, and drifted towards the bee colony ahead.

Strange to say, once the menacing bee swarm came into contact with the black smoke, it immediately fell down like dumplings.

"It's so powerful!" Fatty Wang slapped his thigh happily.

"Row your boat quickly, don't be lazy, the flames are catching up again." I glared at this guy, picked up the wooden paddle and rowed vigorously.

The killer bee was easily solved, which won us precious time. Everyone worked together, and the boat gradually accelerated.

"Come on everyone, the end of the river is ahead." Master Seventeen cheered us up loudly.

Joy flashed in my eyes, and the surrounding fog surged, and a gust of wind blew out of nowhere. The wind helped the fire, and the raging flames on the river flew towards me.
