Nightmare Apostle
Chapter 553: The lingering ghost
His heart twitched violently, and the old man's eyes were venomous. This was the first time that someone could see the extraordinary quality of this opera robe. And the next second, Yang Xiao's heart was held by a soft and boneless hand, and the sound came from his fingertips. The chill was biting.
"My good sister is awake!" Yang Xiao realized later, "No, my good sister has been awake all along. She only chose to hibernate after she noticed the existence of this underworld old man!"
After getting along for so long, Yang Xiao was able to detect part of the good sister's emotions from some subtle changes in her. Facing this underworld old man, the good sister was very wary and even showed a hint of hostility.
Yang Xiao immediately became vigilant. The good sister was so alert, perhaps because she was not entirely afraid of the old man's terrifying strength, but she must have sensed something.
You can't tell the truth to the old man, let alone reveal the secret of your good sister, otherwise the consequences will be unpredictable!
But the problem now is that he doesn't know how much the old man has seen, but he chooses to trust his good sister's judgment. Almost instantly, Yang Xiao has a plan in his heart. Ordinary lies will definitely not be able to hide the other party, and he can only make nine lies and one truth. .
"Where did you get this dress?" The old man said in a very casual tone.
But the more this happened, the more Yang Xiao felt that there was something wrong, but on his face, everything was as usual, "You mean this dress? This is not something that this junior snatched...this is what this junior got from a nightmare mission." middle."
"What kind of mission?" the old man continued to ask.
Yang Xiao pretended to be lost in memories and slowly told what happened in the Feng family mansion. Of course, not all. He hid some details and only had a general story. However, it is reasonable for normal people's memories to miss some. , only when you can remember everything clearly is there a problem, only incomplete lies are closer to the truth.
This is a three-party game, the old man, Yang Xiao, and the female ghost in opera robes. Yang Xiao can feel that every time the lake is mentioned, the good sister seems to be very repulsive, and the palm that holds his heart will tighten slightly. It's more of a threat.
There is a secret buried in the lake. It's not the boat that sank at the bottom of the lake. It's not up to par. It's the nine-story pagoda that sank under the deeper, colder water!
That's the secret of the female ghost in opera robes!
After listening to Yang Xiao's narration, the old man was thoughtful, but as the old man uttered his next sentence, the uneasiness in Yang Xiao's heart finally materialized, "What does the lake look like? Is it big? Are there any buildings on the lake?”
Yang Xiao pretended to think, and shook his head after a moment, "The area is not big, it is connected to the backyard of the big house, and the buildings on the lake..."
He suddenly paused, raised his head and asked doubtfully: "What do you mean by this?"
"For example...an ancient tower?"
As soon as these words came out, Yang Xiao immediately realized that the old man knew far more than he imagined. He knew about the nine-story pagoda sunk at the bottom of the lake!
What's even more frightening is that the other party is not sure whether the clothes he is wearing are what he is looking for.
But...: Is this really necessary? There is a huge gap in strength between the two sides. If you want to find out the truth, you only need to catch yourself.
There were only two of them here. Qu Muzhi was unconscious and no different from a dead person. There was no need for the old man to cause such trouble.
Yang Xiao couldn't understand these things, but since the old man didn't do this, there must be a reason. Yang Xiao guessed that there must be some unknown reason. Maybe the old man didn't want to get this thing, but just wanted to be sure of it. belonging.
But no matter what, under the good sister's power, Yang Xiao still stood firmly with the good sister, with the same gunpoint, and the old man was the outsider.
He told the old man firmly that there was nothing on the lake except a few broken ships, but there was a sunken ship at the bottom of the lake.
"Can you tell me about the capabilities of this piece of clothing?" The old man looked at Yang Xiao, his eyes still calm.
Yang Xiao smiled bitterly in his heart. He didn't want to say it, but he didn't dare. So he pretended to be obedient and nodded, and said seriously: "Senior, this dress is very good and can resist harm."
Yang Xiao had seen a lot of magic weapons that could resist damage, most of which were clothes, so this answer was not too surprising. Moreover, opera robes could indeed resist damage.
However, the old man was not very interested in this answer. Disappointment could be detected in the old man's eyes. To be precise, it was a sense of loss.
"How dare you, a powerful apostle, come to play in a second-class game." The old man said with more concern, "Are you in trouble?"
Hearing this, Yang Xiao couldn't help but nod, as if grasping the last straw, "Senior, to be honest,
I was harmed by the Yuyuan Sect. There was a ghost inside that soul-capturing mirror. It was very difficult to deal with and it grew very fast.
I almost got killed by it several times! "
The old man seemed to recall his experience in the mirror world not long ago, and nodded slowly, "I remember,
There was indeed a ghost last time, but it was hidden. "
"Senior, I'm here just to solve this matter this time!" Yang Xiao once again stated his true intention. This second-class match is almost over here, so it's time for the academy to fulfill its promise and let him into the library.
"Well, you helped the academy find a traitor, and I'll help you find a solution." The old man agreed.
As soon as these words came out, the big stone in Yang Xiao's heart fell to the ground. This person was willing to help, and a mere kid in the mirror was nothing to worry about. "Thank you, senior, for saving your life. I will never forget this!" Yang Xiao solemnly clasped his fists at the old man.
As soon as he finished speaking, the old man suddenly turned his head and looked in the direction of the hospital. Yang Xiao didn't know why, but just ten seconds later, a dark gray fog slowly appeared from that direction, as if it had life force, and headed towards where they were. The position squirmed.
This familiar gray fog immediately gave Yang Xiao a head-on blow. It was the old ghost in Taoist robes. It...it came again!
It’s really haunting.
But this time, Yang Xiao is not very afraid with the underworld master by his side. It's a pity that his good sister's plan will come to nothing. After all, if he wants to swallow this old ghost in Taoist robes in front of the underworld master, he can't reveal his existence. Almost impossible.
But judging from the old man's attitude towards the opera robe, the good sister must have been a famous devil during her lifetime, at least not weaker than the person in front of her, at least at the middle or upper level of the underworld. If one day she can fully control her, then He, Yang Xiaoke, is considered a leader.
"Yike" The crisis in front of him came quickly and quickly. Not long after, Yang Xiao could already see the withered body behind the billowing gray fog.
The old ghost in Taoist robes was wrapped in the fog, and his stiff footsteps rubbed against the ground. Every time he took a step, the actual distance he advanced was at least 5 or 6 steps. The trees and vegetation swallowed by the fog withered and withered, and the buildings along the way were also riddled with corrosion. This is a force full of death and decay. Just standing in front of this force requires great courage.
At this moment, Yang Xiao couldn't help but admire the courage of the silver-haired captain, who blocked the path of the Taoist-robed old ghost with a silver gun in his hand.
"Is it really him?" As the old ghost in Taoist robes gradually approached, the old man from the academy suddenly muttered to himself, apparently recognizing the other person's identity.
But at this moment, Yang Xiao doesn't care who it is. What he cares about is how he can survive the attack of the old ghost in Taoist robes. If the old man hadn't secretly helped him last time, the consequences would have been very bad. This ghost's attacks are more serious than A terrible time.
"Its target is you." The old man hit the nail on the head, "A certain magic weapon on your body is attracting it."
"Is it the fly whisk of the Little White Buddha?" Yang Xiaoyi asked.
The old man's eyes were serious and he nodded, "It should be. After all, it is a Hades-level magic weapon. This guy's appetite is getting bigger and bigger."
"Senior, we don't need to fight, we just need to delay. This mission is about to end.
Yang Xiao said.
But the old man shook his head and took out the sword in his sleeve, "No, if this guy is not eliminated for a day, it will eventually become a serious problem. Now Qingzun Tourmaline can no longer suppress it, and it will soon leave here completely. If you run outside then, you will definitely cause a havoc in the academy."
"Then we.
Before Yang Xiao could finish speaking, the old man took action, pressed the sword in his hand downwards, and said:
"cut."
The next second, I saw the gray fog in front of the old ghost in Taoist robes being blown away by an invisible force. At the same time, the old ghost's chest suddenly cracked open, revealing the dry flesh and blood inside. This blow actually hit the old ghost's chest directly. Make a hole in the front.
"His Yiyi is indeed a master of the underworld, Yang Xiao feels much more at ease now.
But before he could be happy for too long, he saw that the gray mist that had been blown away slowly closed again. At the same time, the wound on the old ghost's chest also healed strangely little by little. Yang Xiao was stunned by this scene. He clearly felt that, This old ghost is stronger than before!
"It is more difficult to deal with than before." The old man held the sword in one hand and his tone became solemn for the first time. "It seems that today's matter must be settled. It has swallowed too many magic weapons and will become a serious problem."
"Senior, can you wait until we get out and find more people to deal with it together?" Yang Xiao suggested that this would be safer.
"It's too late. If we leave now, it will chase us out. By then, the academy will be caught off guard. Once it kills a few elders and swallows some high-level magic weapons, no one can deal with it. We must Kill it here!" The old man made up his mind. The next second, he made a stroke with his left hand on his side, a crack appeared out of thin air, and his figure disappeared instantly.
When the old man left, Yang Xiaoke was stunned. He waited for a few seconds, but didn't see the old man appear anywhere. His heart skipped a beat. He doubted that the other party had left him and escaped. What he said before was all They are beautiful words.
After all, the target of this ghost is himself, so it is reasonable for the old man to leave him behind to delay. He first ran out to report the news, summoned a group of elders in the academy who could fight, and waited for the old ghost in Taoist robes to break out. Then all the masters swarmed up. Fighting in groups and thinking from someone else's perspective is the safest way to deal with it.
It is better to ask for help than to ask for yourself. At the critical moment, you have to look to your good sister. After Yang Xiao confirmed that the old man was gone, he frantically called for his good sister in his heart, but he never got a response. The feeling of abandonment was the same as not long ago.
"No!" Yang Xiao realized later that his good sister had no reason not to help him at this moment. After all, they were grasshoppers on the same rope. If he was killed by the old ghost in Taoist robes, then his good sister would take advantage of the old ghost. The old ghost in Taoist robes had to choose between himself and himself. Even fools knew that they should choose themselves. So the problem was not with the good sister, but with the old man!
The old man at the underworld level has not left. He is hiding nearby just like before!
He was waiting, waiting for how he could save himself. Once his good sister came to help him, his previous lies would be revealed.
That must be the case!
After thinking through all this, Yang Xiao felt a little relieved, but he still had to go through the process of the play. He took out the soul-catching mirror with his remaining right hand, threw the unconscious Qu Muzhi into the mirror world, and finally turned his head to look at the Taoist old ghost chasing him, and sneered, "Goodbye!"
The next second, he rushed towards a reflective marble pedestal, but with a "bang", Yang Xiao was bounced back. This time he was dizzy, and a big bump suddenly swelled on Yang Xiao's forehead, like a unicorn.
The ability of the soul-catching mirror was limited!
At this moment, Yang Xiao was still sober. He didn't know whether it was the work of the Taoist old ghost or the old man in the academy hiding in the dark. In short, his retreat was now cut off.
And the next second, just as Yang Xiao was thinking about how to delay time, an accident happened again. He looked at his right hand in shock. The ghost lantern appeared without being summoned, and it appeared directly in his hand.
Past events came to mind, and Yang Xiao felt bad. Sure enough, he was soon covered by a dazzling green light, and the flames in the ghost lantern exploded, just like in the mirror world. However, this time, Yang Xiao remembered and closed his eyes in advance, so he escaped. However, even so, his eyes were still hurt by the green light.
That's right, the ability of this old ghost is to cause the resentful eye to lose control, and even backfire on the host. Moreover, this old ghost itself has a rotten breath, and any object that touches or is approached will be corroded by that power.
"Old senior, help me!" Yang Xiao shouted while running away. If he continued like this, he would undoubtedly be killed by the Taoist old ghost.
At this moment, when Yang Xiao looked back to observe the location of the old ghost, his peripheral vision inadvertently swept across a small forest. The trees in the forest were all corroded by the gradually approaching rotten breath, but only the one in the middle was safe and sound.
Holding his breath and looking carefully, Yang Xiao saw an incredible scene. He saw a dark shadow projected on the trunk of the tree, and the projected shadow was a person, the old man from the academy who had lost his trace!
In this state, he seemed to be ignored by the ghost. The old ghost in Taoist robes slowly walked past the tree, staring at him with a numb and withered dead face.
At the moment when the old ghost in Taoist robes had his back completely turned, a figure "stood" up from the trunk, raised his sword and fell, and cut off the old ghost's head with one sword.
