Nightmare Apostle

Chapter 429 The Price

The ghost in the mirror who was knocked down by the human bone stick could withstand the beating much better than Yang Xiao imagined. He only hesitated for less than half a second before using his strength to get up and rush towards the nearest door.

During this period, Yang Xiao became more and more skilled in the use of the Resentment Eye in his opponent. Almost instantly, the human bone stick was replaced by a ghost whisk. Yang Xiao felt murderous in his heart and hit him with a whisk. The whole set of attacks was smooth and flowing, and his body rushed forward at the same time.

This time, the ghost in the mirror was not so lucky. He was hit in mid-air, and a tyrannical force tore his legs apart in the blink of an eye. The flesh and bones were shattered, turning into a disgusting puddle of flesh-and-bone fascia adhesion, evenly distributed. Spray on the floor and half of the wall.

But this blow missed the vital point of the ghost in the mirror. His upper body flew up and hit the door. The next second, the originally locked door was knocked open. When Yang Xiao rushed over, the door just closed with a "bang".

Yang Xiao raised his legs and opened the door with two legs. Unexpectedly, this door that looked very strong was actually opened by him. There was no light inside, it was very dim and silent. Yang Xiao did not rush in hastily. He glanced at it. I noticed something was wrong inside.

Through the dim light in the corridor, he noticed that the floor in the room was not the wooden floor in the apartment, but an old black and gray cement floor.

His face suddenly turned ugly, and Yang Xiao already had a guess in his mind. With the ghost lantern in his hand, the green light spread out, and the scene in front of him suddenly changed. He saw a guy whose whole body was rotten and oily, with sticky corpse water flowing around him. At the door, his plump body fit perfectly with the door frame, and there was a thin hemp rope hanging on his chest.

The rope was empty, but Yang Xiao knew that there was once a bronze key tied to it.

And now, the key has been taken away by the ghost in the mirror.

Everything makes sense now. No wonder this guy ran so fast and opened several locked doors in succession.

After such a long delay, the ghost in the mirror must have escaped. Yang Xiao had no choice but to return to the bedroom. He saw that the closet door was open and two of the silver boxes inside had been opened. One of them was the one wrapped in a water glass, and the red cloth was also there. It was taken apart and thrown aside. This was the bait set by Yang Xiao.

The other silver box was empty, but Yang Xiao knew that there had been a key inside, which he had snatched by killing Wu Peide. That key could open any door, and it was precisely by using this key that in the mirror, The ghost was able to escape.

The operation failed, but it was not without gain. At least he severely injured the ghost in the mirror and disabled its two legs. It will definitely not dare to trouble him in a short time.

Recalling the figure that looked exactly like him in the corridor, Yang Xiao couldn't help but feel stunned. It was such an interesting experience to hit himself with the ghost whisk to reduce the dimension.

Anyway, he has been able to sleep peacefully recently, but contrary to expectations, Yang Xiao did not sleep peacefully that night. He dreamed that the ghost in the mirror took advantage of him while he was sleeping, and crawled out of the mirror in the middle of the night, holding a handful in his hand. Dasaw, crying while sawing his leg, said that he would pay for his leg.

Early the next morning, Yang Xiao sent a message to Nalan Shuo, saying that he wanted to see Lu Youdao tonight and asked for advice on something important.

About half an hour later, while having breakfast, he received a reply from Nalan Shuo, which contained one word: Yes.

He spent the day in a daze, thinking about the ghost in the mirror. In the evening, he met Lu Youdao again at the training ground and told the truth about last night. Of course, he didn't know anything about the key. mentioned.

Unexpectedly, Lu Youdao just nodded lightly after hearing this, "As expected, if the ghost in the mirror was so easy to deal with, the master of the Hurt Sect would have used the Soul-Calling Mirror for his own use long ago. How could it be your kid's turn to take advantage of it?" ”

"It's great that you can seriously injure it. This will buy you time. The next step is to consider how to completely solve it." Lu Youdao raised his heavy eyelids and looked at Yang Xiao, "What are your plans? "

"Confucian Academy, you know." After thinking for a moment, Yang Xiao finally revealed his relationship with Yang Cha, and then mentioned the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion.

Hearing this, Lu Youdao looked at Yang Xiao with wonderful eyes again, "I didn't expect you to have such an adventure. The Confucian Academy is one of the top three schools, and it is a holy place that countless students dream of studying. It is said that the conditions for recruiting students are extremely Harsh, valuing talent more than hard work. Every year, except for the three established forces of the Patrol Department, the Federation, and the Chamber of Commerce, which select talents to go for further studies, most of the remaining places are divided up by other major forces, leaving extremely few places for casual cultivators. limited."

"Thanks to the reputation of the Scholars Academy, the Yang family in Yunqicheng is also famous in the world. I once heard that in the territory of Yunqicheng, the Yang family's words are more effective than the patrol office or the joint chamber of commerce. ”

"Of course, in addition to teaching and educating people, their Yang family's library is also unique. It is said that there are countless books in it.

There are also many long-lost secrets hidden in the world, where you may really be able to find a way to crack the ghost in the mirror. "

Lu Youdao's words gave Yang Xiao hope, but what he was really worried about at this moment was the treasures on his body. After all, these things could not be seen in the light. Once he got involved with others, he was afraid that his true identity would be exposed. Not only would his friends be affected, but he would also be afraid of himself. None of them left alive.

"You are worrying too much. The Yang family still has the confidence to be able to stand for many years. Their competition is divided into two types, one is the open competition and the other is the secret competition."

"As the name of the Ming Tournament suggests, both sides staged a martial arts arena and a fair duel. Apart from the contestants, there were only a few senior judges with sufficient qualifications. The rest of the competition was not allowed to observe. Since this competition is semi-public, neither side would place any bets. The dead hand is usually done as soon as the point is reached and the winner is determined. ”

"Compared with Ming Sai, this Dark Sai has more doorways. There is a quiet place in the Confucian Academy called Guansi Pavilion. To put it bluntly, this is a supernatural place where a very special resentment is buried. Eyes, as long as you walk in here, you will fall into a claustrophobic space and be isolated from the world. "

"No matter what happens inside, people outside have no way of knowing. What's even more mysterious is that after a stick of incense, the door will open automatically. As long as the people inside are still alive, they will leave without harm and will be erased in the Quiet Room. The memory in this incense burner.”

The more Yang Xiao listened, the more familiar he felt. This inexplicable sense of familiarity frightened him, "How...how is this similar to the nightmare world?"

"There are some, so this Guansi Pavilion is also known as the nightmare in the palm of the hand, the world is small." Lu Youdao looked serious, "But it is precisely because no one is watching the battle, so the battle does not follow rules and morality. , just based on the skill, the cruelty is far beyond ordinary people's imagination, and it is a fight to the death from the moment you step into it. "

"It's a matter of life and death." Yang Xiao thought of the battle with those from the Yuyuan Sect.

"Yes." Lu Youdao nodded and explained at the same time: "But because of the good confidentiality, it will attract many strong people who do not want to reveal their identity. If you want to participate, you can only take this path."

"But I want to remind you that those who dare to participate in the secret game may have special identities or possess valuable treasures. In short, they are not ordinary people."

Yang Xiao doesn't understand this, but he has no other choice now, "It seems that this is the only way."

However, Lu Youdao shook his head and said with a strange expression: "No, if you are afraid of death, I have two ways to keep you alive and at the same time get rid of the trouble of the ghost in the mirror forever."

Yang Xiao's eyes lit up and he immediately became energetic. He grabbed Lu Youdao's hand and said, "Afraid, why aren't you afraid?

I am most afraid of death. Senior Lu, please save me! "

Lu Youdao was also shocked by Yang Xiao's performance, and shook his hand away with a cold face, "Listen carefully, this one,

You need to repent from the palace and join the Black Buddha Mother Cult. According to the teachings of the Black Buddha Mother Cult, no matter what kind of sin you have committed, as long as you are willing to repent from the palace, you will be forgiven by the Black Buddha Mother. She will use the supreme method to Can save you. "

"I choose the second one." Yang Xiao decisively refused.

"The second one is more complicated. It is to completely dig out the soul-capturing mirror from your body. From now on, it will no longer belong to you." Lu Youdao's voice became hoarse. "There is no reason for the ghost in the mirror." I’ll pester you again.”

"Still...can this still happen?"

After being stunned for a moment, Yang Xiao suddenly raised his voice. This was beyond his understanding. Everyone had told him before that the only way to get rid of the resentment eyes on his body was to die. In the same way, if he wanted to take away the resentment eyes of others, he also had to die. The only way is to kill people and seize treasures.

Lu Youdao nodded slowly and stared at Yang Xiao with his cloudy eyes:

"Yes, but you need to pay a price, are you... willing?"

Yang Xiao swallowed subconsciously, "What price?"

Hearing this, Lu Youdao raised his twisted left hand and pointed at his broken face:

"Become like me."

As soon as these words came out, the hair on Yang Xiao's back stood up. He never thought that this was the reason why Lu Youdao became like this!

"You...you dug out your resentful eyes?!" Yang Xiao was shocked. He repeated the strange word "dig out", but even he didn't realize it.

"Yes." Lu Youdao's expression was stiff, "Are you willing?"

Being stared at by Lu Youdao's eyes, Yang Xiao instinctively felt a strong sense of crisis at this moment. He subconsciously stretched his left hand to his back. There was his backpack, which contained the Ming Yi opera robe.

But the next second, Lu Youdao withdrew his gaze, and a rare smile appeared on his cold face. Although this smile was scarier than crying, although Yang Xiao did not answer, his performance said everything.

"Scared you?" Lu Youdao grinned and smiled, his face twitching as if it had been corroded by strong acid.

Yang Xiao calmed down and tried his best to smile and responded, "No, I know you are joking."

"Then what are you doing with your left hand?" Lu Youdao seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

"I...my waist hurts. Let's move around." Yang Xiaoran took back his left hand, but cold sweat had already appeared on his forehead.

Lu Youdao tried his best to straighten his rickety body and suppress his smile, "Young man, I was not kidding just now.

One day you will understand that it is far better to make a clean break with those things than to live or die. "
