Although he was still skeptical about Huang Daqi's words before his death, Shuangxie decided to open another coffin to check the situation after thinking about it.
Come and try it quickly. 】
But this time, they finally rescued a real passerby, one of the pilgrims who had previously disappeared in Zhihua Temple.
But precisely because he was a real passerby, this person was a little too frightened at the moment and could not communicate well with others, nor could he tell much useful information.
Therefore, Sun and Huang could only divide their work. Huang Donglai "opened the coffins" one by one to verify the situation in each coffin, while Sun Yixie was responsible for comforting and controlling those who were rescued, so that they should not panic and Don't even run around.
In this way, they soon found the real Qin Feng and Yu Jianli in those coffins.
Qin Feng's condition is relatively bad. His injury obviously won't heal so quickly. It's good to be able to barely walk a few steps, but Jianli is quite energetic.
After communicating with Uncle Yu, Shuangxi knew that many of the things Huang Daqi had told him before were indeed true.
For example, the person in the coffin can indeed hear sounds from the outside world, but they can't escape and can't spread their shouts, so they knock on the coffin board inside after hearing something moving outside.
Another example... Huang Daqi's story about how Qin and Yu were attacked after they killed Guo Jian was similar to the actual situation, except that he omitted some information that he didn't want Shuang Xie to know.
Anyway, Sun, Huang, Qin, and Yu are reunited here, and they also rescued a dozen people (although there were twenty or thirty coffins, some of the people in the coffins were already dead). The people captured and imprisoned by demons.
But then, another problem immediately appeared in front of them: should they take this group of people together, or should they stay where they are, and leave one or two people here to protect them, while the rest Then continue to investigate elsewhere.
To be honest, either way is very troublesome.
The former plan requires Sun, Huang, and Yu to lead a dozen passers-by who may not be obedient, plus Qin Feng, who has trouble walking, to explore this weird space together, even if no one makes a mistake in the process. Any moth will slow down the action extremely slowly.
The latter plan is equivalent to returning to the starting point and tearing everyone apart again.
After some discussion, everyone finally chose the former.
Because in this space, "waiting in place" is also very dangerous, and once we are separated, it is hard to say whether we can see each other again and how long we will see you again... Then it is better to take these people with you and go slowly. Slow down.
After deciding on the plan, everyone explained the situation to the arrested people and suggested that everyone go together. The result was good, the dozen or so people were cooperative, and there was no such thing as the kind of madness that is common in American horror movies. A jerk character, of course... In this story, if there was such a character, he/she would probably be whipped on the spot and kicked out of the team.
After a while, everyone was ready to set off, when Yu Jianli offered to carry Qin Feng on his back.
Uncle Yu had good intentions, because if Qin Feng hadn't appeared in time when he was fighting with Guo Jian, he might have been the one who suffered the worst.
But after Sun Yixie, the sixth child, heard Yu Jianli's request, he had an idea and thought of something else, so he immediately jumped out and rushed to carry the wounded person with a righteous look on his face.
When Yu Jianli took a look at it, he couldn't help but sigh, thinking to himself, do you people from the Hunyuan Star Sect feel like brothers to each other? I was a little touched at that time.
As for Qin Feng, he didn't taste anything else.
Only Huang Donglai could see through at a glance that Brother Sun was trying to paddle in the safest position in the middle of the team on the pretext of "carrying the wounded"; in this way, the responsibilities of opening the path and cutting off the rear would naturally be left to him and Yu Jianli .
However, Brother Huang did not point this matter out: firstly, this is not a big deal, Brother Sun's behavior has always been like this, and Brother Sun will still join the battle when there is real danger; secondly, there are more than a dozen pairs of people here His eyes are looking at him. If he starts now, he and Brother Sun will have an unlimited cross talk for more than ten minutes. He will not be interested in their "savior-like image of a hero in the world" in the hearts of these people. What benefits.
In short, this group of people set off again with this configuration. As for what they encountered later, we will leave it aside for now. Here we will divide the story into two parts, and first talk about the situation of those monks.
Let's talk about Yan Danzi, Liang Jingshuo, Neng Ming, Ren Can, and Neng Ze. Their situation is actually similar to that of Sun Huang and others at the moment.
Since Master Nozawa was seriously injured in the illusion, the other four people chose to stay where they were after leaving the illusion. They only started to take action after Master Nozawa's physical condition stabilized.
And when they took action, they also assigned one person to be responsible for carrying the wounded... But there was nothing to argue between them. Rencan, as a close disciple of Master Nozawa, was the weakest among them. This He must be obligated to do this.
The four of them were in such a state of "four dragging one behind" that they were slow to explore, but their actions were not slow.
Because these people from the Buddhist and Taoist sects not only have the Buddha's mind and the Taoist mind to guard the gods, but also have certain magic skills, they don't have the problem of "fear", and they don't have to carry around a dozen people with fear in their hearts. We were walking with ordinary people who were confused and walked at different paces, so just carrying a wounded person on their backs had little impact on them.
With Yan Danzi as the leader and Liang Jingshuo's ability to sense Yin Qi as the assistant, the group of people gradually got closer and closer to the exit of the "second floor".
Yes, just like all mazes and inner worlds, this space also has an "exit".
People trapped here do not have to eliminate the maintainers of space to escape. As long as you find a trick, it is possible to "get out".
Of course, it's difficult.
Not to mention ordinary people, even Yan Danzi, a disciple of the Emei inner sect who is very solid in yin and yang feng shui, dare not say that he has complete confidence in solving this constantly changing space.
Fortunately, they didn't encounter any obstacles along the way. Not only did they not encounter any dead animals, they didn't even run into any of the "Seven Evils". It was as if there was some kind of force that deliberately prevented them from meeting them.
However, when they came to a place only "one room away" from the exit, they finally encountered danger.
What attacked them was one of the four dead animals entrenched in Zhihua Temple - Jianglou Dog.
Among the twelve zodiac signs, the Xu dog often symbolizes integrity, bravery, love and righteousness, honesty and friendliness, loyalty and reliability, etc. However, the Jianglou dog among the thirteen dead animals is exactly the opposite. Righteous, cunning and unpredictable, adapting to the wind...
You can also see from the words and deeds of the "evil" Huang Daqi who was transformed by it, that this descending dog can be regarded as an anomaly among the dead animals; no matter how other dead animals harm the world and make trouble, they dare to do so. Dare to take it, because for them, these things are taken for granted...it is "credit", but Jianglou dogs often choose to hide in the dark, act insignificantly, and will not come forward in person unless absolutely necessary, and will let those who Those who work for him cover up what is going on behind the scenes, and do not expose it if possible.
From a certain point of view, this Jianglou dog is really like a human, but it is not a normal person, but a villain.
And there is a reason why it became the "villain" among the Thirteen Dead Animals, because it is really...a bit weak.
Although Jianglou Dog is not the lowest among the dead animals in terms of physical strength and demonic power, when combined, it is the weakest.
As the saying goes, God...oh no...when the Jade Emperor closes a door for you, he will often open a window for you. Although this Jianglou dog is weak in combat power, it also has strong points: good popularity.
Except for the incompatibility with the "Rooster" and some bad relations, the other zodiac animals have a good relationship with Jianglou Dog. Even if he uses his compatriots as a shield to hide himself all day long, or uses his old-fashioned behavior to paddle, the relationship will be good. No one cares about it, and everyone often cooperates with it.
However, today the Lougou is unlucky.
Previously, after feeling that the "rat" was killed, Jianglou Gou panicked and thought of trying to escape alone; however, the "horse" and "snake" were still there, and the snake was injured. Neither of them ran away. Your dog escaped first. Doesn’t that make sense? Furthermore, it had only eaten half of the people Huang Daqi had captured and imprisoned for it, and it had not finished enjoying the remaining dozen. What a pity it would be to give them up.
So Jiang Lougou thought: How about I do another job and pick a few soft persimmons for him to pinch, which can be regarded as a meritorious service. Then I won't be blamed again.
After making up its mind, it started looking for its target, and by chance, it found Yan Danzi and his group.
Then it started to get confusing...
Ordinarily, even a dead creature with a mid-range and low-level combat power, such as the Quail-tailed Snake, cannot be easily taken down by these guys.
Without the use of precious props such as the "Pure Heaven and Earth Talisman", even if the two monks and two monks could defeat a dead animal based on their own fighting power, it would still be a hard battle.
If the Jianglou Dog makes a sneak attack, it has a great chance of winning.
However, Jianglou Dog’s physical strength is at the bottom among the dead animals, and coupled with personality factors, it is also a bit weak.
And if you let it simply ignore the two monks and two wounded people in front of it and go find someone else, it is afraid of meeting someone stronger, such as someone who killed the "rat".
Just as he was worrying about gains and losses, Jiang Lougou unknowingly followed and watched these people approach the exit.
Moreover, Jianglou Gou didn't know that the "food in the coffin" that he had planned to eat after his "meritorious service" and before running away had also been stolen by Sun and Huang.
It saw that Yan Danzi and the others were about to escape if they moved forward. Being forced to do nothing, it had no choice but to take action.
Sneak attack!
Undoubtedly a sneak attack.
The Jianglou Dog attacks from the darkness, and the first target of its attack is Master Nengming.
Compared to Yan Danzi and Liang Jingshuo, the old monk's combat power was obviously weaker, and his sneak attack success rate was higher.
What? You ask why it didn't attack Ren Can, who was weaker and carrying the wounded on his back? Isn't the success rate of attacking Rencan higher? And once you get it, you can kill two birds with one stone, right?
You are thinking too little about this.
If Jianglou Gou attacks Rencan as soon as it comes up and kills Rencan and Master Noze on his back, what will happen next?
Is it about to face the three stronger ones among the five? And not only do these three people no longer have any burdens, but they also have full anger points?
But what if it attacks first...
Regardless of whether they were killed directly or seriously injured and fell to the ground, the ensuing situation was this: Yan Danzi, Liang Jingshuo, and Rencan had to fight while dragging and protecting one or two seriously injured burdens. .
For Jianglou Gou, the latter situation is undoubtedly more beneficial.
Soon after, there was a dog howl, and the black wind blew, and the Jianglou dog came from the diagonal stab to kill, its claws went straight to the side of Monk Nengming's neck.
Jiang Lougou thought that this attack was a sure thing and he could tell whether he was dead or injured. Unexpectedly, at that critical moment, in the flash of lightning, Liang Jingxuan, who was walking at the end of the five people and had been alert to the surroundings, reacted and At the last moment, he caught up with Jiang Lougou's speed... Picking up the bell he carried with him was a shock to his luck.
This shock was not to prevent Jianglou Dog's attack, but was aimed at his companions.
A second later, the strong sound of the bell accompanied by the sound wave opened up a "sound circle" between the five people, shaking Yan Danzi, Neng Ming, Ren Can and Master Neng Ze, including Liang Jingshuo himself, two feet away. excess.
Although the blow itself caused some damage to his companions, it successfully allowed Master Nengming to avoid Jianglou Gou's first and most fatal sneak attack.
Two seconds later, Yan Danzi and Liang Jingxuan stabilized their bodies and stood almost at the same time. Master Nengming knelt down on one knee after a roll. Only Ren Can... adjusted his body in mid-air in order to protect his master. He fell to the ground and used him as a meat mat for Master Nozawa.
After everyone saw Jiang Lou Gou's figure clearly, they quickly understood what was going on. No one would blame Liang Jingxuan for the emergency measures he took at that critical moment.
Only Jiang Lougou, who had missed the target, glared at Liang Jingxuan fiercely, and then rushed towards him...
…………
At the same moment, the "second floor", another place.
A "person" appeared in front of Fudoko.
He was a handsome young man with fair complexion, cold and elegant temperament, tall and slender figure, and dressed in white clothes like snow.
Of course, it is not a real person, but one of the dead animals - the quail and fire horse.
It is also the strongest among the four animals currently entrenched in Zhihua Temple. Its strength is on par with the "ox" that was crushed to pieces by Fudozi before.
However, the painting style of Quail Fire Horse looks much more stylish than that of Xingji Ox.
Quail Fire Horse usually likes to transform into human form, not to confuse anyone, just because it enjoys doing so.
Its human form is also fixed, and it will always be this young and handsome "boy on a white horse" image.
"Trail." At this moment, Quail Huoma stood in front of Fudo a few feet away, standing with his hands behind his back, and said proudly, "If I didn't misjudge you, are you from the Xuanqi Sect?"
"Exactly." Fudozi looked at the other party and responded coldly, "If I'm not mistaken, are you a quail fire horse?"
"Ha..." Quail Fire Horse smiled and said calmly, "I prefer others to call me 'Mr. Ma'."
"Oh." Fudozi nodded, "Actually, I also like people to call me godfather. How about we understand each other?"
