Weird past in the countryside

Chapter 108 Shimen Strikes Down

We refocused and walked forward along the passage in front of us, which is also the only passage.

The pace of the master's progress was a little slow, Wei Meng looked a little anxious, and he actually passed the master while walking, and ran to the front alone to explore the way.Seeing this, the master hurriedly called Wei Meng: "Meng Zi, you get behind me."

Wei Meng turned his head and said, "Master Yuan, let me scout the way ahead. If there is any danger, you should have already prepared for it."

The master shook his head: "Absolutely not. This underground passage has been closed underground for a long time, the air is already thin, and there is some rancid smell in the air. We must slow down and use torches to rush forward. If this happens If the airflow changes, we can also deal with it. If you move forward in a hurry, once there is an unexpected situation, you may not be able to avoid it."

After hearing this, Wei Meng stopped insisting, turned around and walked behind the master.

As we continued to move forward, the feeling of coldness became heavier and heavier.The torch held by the master in front of him was also flickering and flickering.The master obviously also felt this change. He held the torch in one hand and the mahogany sword in the other, watching the change of the torch closely, and slowly moved forward.

The light on the torch is getting dimmer and the flame is getting smaller and smaller.The surrounding light also became dim as the flames decreased.Ning Xiaoyue tightly clutched the corner of my clothes, and I could feel the trembling coming from her body.

Although the speed is very slow, we did not stop after all, and finally, we came to the end.

It is said to be the end because this passage came here, and a stone gate appeared in front of it.

The stone door looked very solid, I stepped forward and tried to push it, but there was no sign of loosening.Master held up the torch, and the flame on the torch was better than nothing, only a little bit of light remained.The cold wind all around kept attacking the body, making people shiver uncontrollably.

Seeing this, Wei Meng stepped forward and said to his master, "Master Yuan, let me try this door?"

Master nodded: "Be careful."

Wei Meng walked to the door, lucked out, shouted loudly, and pushed the door with both hands.Wei Meng shouted continuously, his strength continued to increase, and the dust on the edge of the stone door kept shaking off, but the door was not shaken at all.

Wei Meng was still exerting his strength, Qi Wantong stopped Wei Meng: "Don't push, I guess there should be a mechanism nearby. You see, we chased that severed hand, but we didn't see it halfway. After chasing here, we disappeared There is no other exit nearby. I think it must have entered this stone gate. Do you think that hand can push this stone gate?"

Master nodded and said: "Master Qi is right, let's look for it and see if there is any mechanism?"

But even though we searched around, we didn't find anything that looked like a switch.I took the torch in Master's hand, leaned on the door and observed carefully, and found that there were many complicated symbols and patterns engraved on the door.I called everyone over, but no one had any impression of the symbol or what it meant.

We fell into a predicament again. We didn't expect that there was a light of hope, but we were stumped by a stone door when we got here.

Master suddenly asked: "Tell me, that severed hand has no eyes, how does it perceive our existence?"

I don't know why Master asked this question, but I replied casually, "It depends on my feeling."

Master asked again, "How do you feel?"

The wooden stick said, "Could it be the yang energy in us?"

"That's right." The master said affirmatively: "That's it. I think we should hide and see if the severed hand can come out again. After it comes out, we should pay attention to observe and see how it entered the stone gate."

"But, how do we hide? There's nowhere to hide here." I questioned.

The master blinked his eyes: "The teacher has his own clever plan. Look at what it is." He took out a small box from his arms and opened it. Inside was something wrapped in yellow silk cloth with a picture of Various Talismans.Lifting the yellow silk cloth, a red bead the size of a pigeon egg was revealed inside.I recognized it immediately: "Isn't this the blood drop left by that giant moth?"

Master nodded and said yes: "This bead can cover the yang energy on our body. Even if the hand comes out, it will definitely not feel the yang energy on our body, that is to say, we cannot feel our existence."

Yu Ling'er said: "Is it really so amazing? Can this work?"

The master smiled and said: "It's okay, let's try it out. There is no better way right now. But there is one thing, you have to keep your eyes open for me, and you must remember how it gets in. If you don’t do it, it’s all in vain. Come on, you all come here, try to be by my side, don’t be too far away. Henry Zhang, bring Xiaoyao here too.”

I dragged Xiaoyao to Master's side.It was miraculous to say that Master held up the blood bead, and we could really feel the bursts of cold air from the blood bead around us.

The master said softly: "We are ready, the next step is to wait patiently, the severed hand does not know whether it will come out, when will it come out. Just sit back and wait."

Actually speaking, this is really not a good way.To say that the certainty is really not great, do we have to wait a day if the severed hand does not come out in a day, and if it does not come out in a year, do we have to wait a year?

We stood not far from the stone gate.I had some doubts: "Master, don't we need to hide? Can we just stand here?"

The master laughed and said, "Hiding? The severed hand has no eyes. As long as we cover the yang energy, it won't feel our presence. It's the same as hiding."

"Oh." I responded casually, but I still felt weird in my heart.

Unexpectedly, this trick turned out to be quite effective.Not long after we dealt with everything, the stone door was half opened from the inside, and when we looked inside the stone door, he couldn't see anything. .

When we saw this situation, we all stared at Shimen's changes.

After a while, I saw a black figure coming out of the stone gate. From the outline of that shadow, I could tell at a glance that it was the severed hand.

I didn't expect that after the arm was cut off, it could survive by itself, and it still has a certain ability to move. It's really supernatural. It's not an exaggeration to call it a ghost hand.

The ghost hand drilled out of the stone gate, and really didn't feel our presence.Even jumped back and forth in front of us several times.The ghost has no hands and feet, and can't see what to use to move, only to see it jumping freely on the ground.

Master gave us a signal, and we all surrounded Master and moved towards the stone gate.If we can sneak into Shimen, we can save a lot of trouble.

But unexpectedly, when we were about to approach Shimen.The stone gate unexpectedly closed quickly, shutting us out again.

We looked at each other, very disappointed.

The master said softly: "It doesn't matter. After a while, I will show up and force the ghost hand back into the stone gate. You just need to see how it entered."

The ghost hand still didn't notice our existence, and was still jumping around in that passage.Looks like it's going to jump back to where we just came in.

Seeing this, the master hurriedly stuffed the blood into my hand, and he jumped out two meters away with one stride.Holding a mahogany sword in his hand, he stabbed at the ghost's hand.

The ghost hand suddenly sensed the danger, jumped suddenly, and dodged the master's lightning-fast sword.The ghost jumped up, circled in the air, and grabbed the master's face directly.

The master returned the sword to the ghost's hand, and the ghost's hand flashed again, and the man fought in the passage with one hand.Although the master's kung fu is good, but the ghost hand is too flexible, for a while, the master can't do anything with the ghost hand.

Seeing this, Wei Meng let out a low drink, and rushed out with his saber in hand.This person's evil spirit was too strong, as soon as he appeared, the ghost hand stopped suddenly, and ignored the master's attack, and fled directly towards Shimen.

We knew that the important moment was coming, so we quickly widened our eyes and watched the actions of the ghost hand.

The ghost hand jumped a few times and came in front of Shimen.Pressed down on the three positions on the stone door continuously, and finally slammed on the stone door...

The few of us were watching closely, but we missed a step after all our calculations. At the last slap of the ghost's hand, the torch went out untimely.

After we frantically lit the torch again, we found that the stone door was still closed, and the ghost hand disappeared under the gaze of our eyes.
