Chapter 41: The Devil Borrows the Way

Since coming out of Zhang's mansion, they are going straight to the gate of the city, according to the speed of the two, they should have already left the city, but now they have walked for a long time, but the tall and majestic city tower is still not visible on the road ahead.

Keigo said, "Did you go the wrong way?" I see this is it, right? ”

"It's not about the road." Ji Changkong lowered his eyes and looked at the ground, and said, "Before we came out, did any roosters crow?" ”

Jingwu hurriedly said: "Yes, in the chicken coop next to the back kitchen of Zhang's mansion, there are two roosters, three long and one short, I also heard it." ”

Ji Changkong nodded, then looked up at the sky, and said to Jing Wu: "That's it." But look at this day. ”

Keigo also looked above his head. The inky clouds still squeezed the whole sky, and there was no intention of scattering, only a little cloudy white through the gaps in the clouds.

The rooster crows on the fifth watch, and after the fifth watch is dawn. When they went out, the sky was already white, and now that so much time had passed, it didn't make sense that it hadn't yet dawned.

"It seems that we have entered the formation set up by others."

said that there was a while, Jingwu immediately became serious and looked around.

I saw that the doors of the buildings lined up on both sides were closed, and there were only three of them on the empty street. In normal times, this is perfectly normal. However, at some point, a thick fog rose in the void, and wisps of light smoke enveloped everything around it, making the whole city look lifeless and lifeless. The indifferent wind shuttled violently, slamming the doors and windows of every house, and it was even more strange in this deathly silent environment.

Jingwu said: "Sure enough, there is a formation. But what is this array for? It's not going to be for us. ”

Ji Changkong said: "Probably not." Let's find an eye first, and then let's go out. ”

But where a formation is arranged, there must be an eye. If you want to get out of the formation, there are only two ways: either find the eye of the formation and break out of the formation directly; Either find the person who set up the formation and follow him out.

It is true that if you can follow the master of the formation, it will naturally be the most convenient, but it is also risky. Because often the ones who enter the battle are the prey that people are optimistic about in advance, and since they are the prey, they will definitely not let you go easily. Some people who are unlucky to get in, if you meet a good-tempered master, you will also be let go. But at this moment, you don't know what the temperament of the master of this array is, and you don't know if this array will be used to arrest you, so very few people who enter the formation have hope for this method.

Besides, at this moment, half of the ghosts on the deserted street are not visible, where to go to find the master.

Seeing the situation clearly, Keigo consciously began to look for an eye. He rummaged through the bag he was carrying, and finally found a magic weapon. I thought that with this magic weapon, I could quickly find the formation eye and leave this ghost place as soon as possible. Unexpectedly, this array was extremely powerful, and the magic weapon was pointed indiscriminately in this array and lost its spirit.

He put the magic weapon back in his sleeve, went to Ji Changkong, and said in pieces: "No." My locator doesn't work here, and I don't know what kind of breakout this is. ”

The fog around them has become thicker and thicker, and the two- and three-story buildings are hidden in a gray and white, and the concrete image is gradually no longer visible. But the wind of the great work has stopped a little at this moment, and when it blows past the ears, it can only gently bring up a strand of long hair.

This shows that this formation is still deepening, and it is getting more and more powerful.

Ji Changkong quickly observed the surroundings, and finally fell on Bei Dye in his arms. The dense fog in this array has the effect of ecstasy, and he and Keigo are both divine bodies, so naturally they will not be affected by it. But if you inhale too much, I'm afraid that you will always fall into such a sleep and it will be difficult to wake up.

Moreover, at this moment, she is in a state of deep sleep, and her body has the lowest resolution, and she does not refuse everything in the air. It would be too dangerous to let her sleep any longer.

He moved his arm and tried to shake Beiran awake: "Xiaobei, get up quickly, don't sleep." ”

shouted several times, but Bei Ran was indifferent, only lying quietly in Ji Changkong's arms, as if he had fallen into a deep sleep. Ji Chang Hollow said badly, Jun frowned, and said to Jing Wu: "We have to break the formation and go out quickly, Bei Ran has smoked too much ecstasy smoke and is already in a coma." ”

Keigo was casting spells to explore all directions, and when he heard the sound, he stopped to look at him, shook his head, and said, "I've almost checked all the places here that might be used as array eyes, but I still haven't found where the array eyes are. ”

Ji Changkong squatted down and put Bei Ran on the ground, and said, "You come and help me support her, I'll try." ”

Worried that the smoke inhaled by Bei Ran was too much and would hurt his body at all, he thought about it, leaned down again, touched her lips, and gave her some mana.

Jingwu was about to follow what he said, come over to help Bei Dye, but when he turned his head, he happened to see this scene. Ji Changkong hugged the person in his arms, his thin lips were close to her lips, his lips and teeth were intertwined, and he had not meant to leave for a long time.

Jing Wu's ears turned red, and he quickly twisted his face aside, and said, "Big brother, in front of the public, pay attention, okay!" I'm single for 10,000 years, you don't need to abuse me like this. ”

Ji Changkong handed over the north dye to him, and said without changing his face: "Have an opinion? ”

After saying that, he got up decisively, took two steps forward to the center of the long street, and with a twist of his hand, he turned out his Shangjiqin.

His slender fingers quickly stirred back and forth on the piano a few times, and several blue blades of light jumped out of all directions around him, beautiful as thousands of swimming fish rushing to the sea, fierce as a rain of arrows and guns.

Where the blue light passed, the fog lifted a little. When the last blue light dissipated, Ji Changkong said, "It's coming." ”

Keigo didn't know why: "What's coming?" He glanced around and saw that he saw nothing but the houses along the road that were completely obscured by the fog.

Just as he was about to ask again, he saw Ji Changkong put the piano back into his sleeves, came to them, picked up Bei Ran and retreated to the side of the road. Keigo also followed in his footsteps, taking many steps back, until there was no way to retreat, and the two of them stopped.

Jingwu said, "What's wrong?" ”

Ji Changkong said: "Listen carefully. ”

Keigo listened quietly to all the movements around him, and even the sound of flying insects streaking in the air did not escape his ears. Despite this, he didn't hear anything, and just as he was about to speak, he suddenly felt a movement in the distance, and he was shocked: "I heard ......."

At both ends of the long street, shrouded in white fog and unable to see the end, a large group of people were rushing towards them. In addition to the sound of footsteps, it is accompanied by the sound of a variety of musical instruments.

The sound of gongs, drums, and suona to welcome relatives, the wailing and wailing of funerals, and the hand-cranked bells of wizards, some big and small, some joys and sorrows, are intertwined, chaotic, and disturbing to hear.

Jingwu frowned and covered his ears, and said in disgust: "Damn, what kind of sound is this?!" The ghost screams the same. ”

Ji Changkong was silent, and whispered: "Don't make a sound, they are coming." ”

Jing Wu immediately turned around and went back to back with Ji Changkong. The next moment, it was really at both ends of the long street, in the thick white fog, two teams of people suddenly appeared, walking towards each other with great momentum.

Seeing them, Keigo's eyes widened in surprise. For the first time in his life, he had seen such a big battle.

It's just that these two teams are not people at all. All of them are dead white, their expressions are stagnant, and their steps are vain, and they are clearly hundreds of dead spirits.

Two teams of people, one team wore red wedding clothes and played the "Welcome Song". The other team wore black and white mourning clothes and played "The Great Funeral".

The procession to greet relatives did not show joy, and the funeral procession did not show sadness. The same expression was carved into the faces of the pale corpses.

Jing Wu stiffly hit Ji Changkong with his hand, and said in a low voice, "What are they doing here?" ”

Ji Changkong said: "People pave the way, and ghosts borrow the road." ”
