Li Bai was not in a hurry, she needed to confirm the identity of "Wu Qiang", "Let me ask you, how many people are here this time?"
"There are 10 people, Miss Li, why do you..."
The mummy replied as dry flesh and blood continued to fall off his face. This scene made the well-informed Li Bai unable to hold on.
"Let me ask you again, what did I tell you when Huang Jun blocked Yao, Shun and Yu's sword?"
This sentence obviously confused the mummy, and the unusually hoarse voice changed accordingly, "Miss Li, you haven't told me anything, and... And wasn't it Lu Zhangyuan who blocked the sword for Yao, Shun, and Yu?"
The next second, Li Bai suppressed the resistance in her heart, grabbed the arm of the mummy, and at the same time used her other hand to pull the rope around her waist slowly and quickly. This was the secret code she and Lu Zhangyuan had agreed upon.
Soon, the rope responded, and there was a force pulling her outward. But before Li Bai could relax, the surrounding fog seemed to be stimulated, and suddenly surged up, covering Li Bai in just a few breaths. Fortunately, Li Bai was still holding the mummy's skinny arm tightly.
"ah!"
Suddenly there was a short exclamation in front of him, and Li Bai could tell it was Wu Qiang who looked like a mummy.
"What's wrong with you?" Li Bai asked quickly.
"There was... a hand on my shoulder, pulling me back." Wu Qiang's voice also trembled.
As soon as he finished speaking, the mummy retreated uncontrollably into the mist. It was dragged away by a force. Li Bai couldn't stand still and was pulled into the mist.
"Oops......"
It's not that Li Bai has never imagined a similar situation happening, but she doesn't have any countermeasures.
Now the connection point between her and the outside world is Lu Zhangyuan. If Lu Zhangyuan is also involved, then the three of them will be ruined.
However, Li Bai later felt that he was worrying too much. Lu Zhangyuan would not sit back and watch him being dragged in. When he could no longer hold on, he would naturally let go.
Li Bai has already explained this, and she won't blame Lu Zhangyuan.
As the rope was continuously dragged in, Li Bai inevitably panicked. She knew that Lu Zhangyuan outside was getting closer and closer to the bridge pier. She and Wu Qiang would be abandoned at any time. She didn't know when this would happen. The feeling of being abandoned is like a quagmire. The more you struggle, the more desperate you become.
The mummy suddenly let go of his hand, and then pushed Li Bai outward hard, "Miss Li, go back quickly, I can't survive, and I can't hurt you anymore!"
Wu Qiang is a good man with a generous and kind personality, which is one of the reasons why Li Bai decided to take the risk to save him, but as Lu Zhangyuan said, he is just a stranger after all.
Li Bai had tried her best, and she had nothing to regret. She was ready to give up, but just when Li Bai was about to let go, suddenly, a huge force came from his waist. This force was extremely powerful, and it could never be Lu Zhangyuan.
Another thing made Li Bai instantly vigilant. There was a cold aura permeating along the rope, almost freezing her to death.
[Currently used, it is the most complete and best-used app for listening to books. It integrates 4 major speech synthesis engines, over 100 kinds of sounds, and supports offline reading.
The sound came from not far behind Li Bai. Li Bai did not dare to look back, but turned around little by little. Lu Zhangyuan stood very close behind him.
However, Lu Zhangyuan looked quite miserable now. He was holding on to the rope with both hands and was exhausted.
His feet were resting on the broken edge of the bridge. If he took another step forward, he would fall off the bridge.
There were still shocking blood stains on the rope. In order to keep the rope, he wore his hands raw.
What shocked Li Bai even more was that the other end of the rope actually fell under the bridge.
Li Bai looked at Lu Zhangyuan fiercely, his eyes were trembling, "You..."
Lu Zhangyuan forced out an ugly smile and let go of Flesh Mold Hu's palm, "Sister Li, your guess is right. The ghost that trapped you is indeed afraid of water. In the end, I couldn't hold on any longer, so I threw the rope in. In the river, sure enough, you all came out safe and sound."
Lu Zhangyuan's tone was relaxed, as if he was talking about an inconspicuous thing, but Li Bai was frightened when he heard it, because although Lu Zhangyuan threw the other end of the rope into the river, he did not let go. This was tantamount to taking advantage of himself. His life was bet that she and Wu Qiang would come back safely.
Moreover, Li Bai could completely feel how strong the evil spirit coming from the river was, but you must know that the first person that the evil energy came into contact with was Lu Zhangyuan, and he suffered more injuries.
Thinking of this, Li Bai's eyes changed when he looked at Lu Zhangyuan. She had doubted him, but now...
But Lu Zhangyuan seemed not to notice anything. He relaxed his stiff arms and smiled at Li Bai, "Sister Li, you are still the best. I just threw the rope into the river. Do you know what happened?"
Li Bai calmed down, "What happened?"
"Hey, there was chaos under the bridge. There was a crackling sound, and it was like the sound of fetching water. I had the guts to take a look, and I almost fell off due to fright." Lu Zhangyuan seemed to have thought of the terrifying scene at that time, His whole face became tense, "Under the water, especially...especially around the bridge pier, many hands stretched out, and they were black. Those black hands kept waving, trying to grab the rope. The scene was... Scared to death."
Li Bai looked at Lu Zhangyuan, who was constantly moving his arms but showing no flaws on his face. He didn't know what to say for a moment.
Wu Qiang seemed to have come back to his senses at this moment, and kept thanking Li Bai and Lu Zhangyuan. He burst into tears and had runny nose. It could be seen that he was really frightened. It was not an experience to walk between life and death. Just kidding.
Before they could take a breath, the three of them looked in the direction of Blackwater Village almost at the same time, and they heard a strange sound.
"It seems...it seems that the Blood Queen's fire team is coming soon." Wu Qiang couldn't help but swallowed.
At this moment, he had no other ideas. Li Bai immediately commanded, "Hurry and pave the bridge deck. Remember, you can go back the same way you came. As long as you don't look back, you'll be fine. Don't look back when someone calls your name. That's all." Fake."
As Wu Qiang and Lu Zhangyuan started fucking in full swing, Li Bai quickly ran towards the end of the bridge near Heishui Village. She found a commanding height to stand on, and soon, a long and long penis came out from behind a forest. There were people in the team holding torches, which were particularly dazzling in the dim night.
Slowly, Li Bai opened her eyes wide. She actually saw a huge sedan chair, and there was a large sculpture sitting on the sedan chair.
There is also a red hijab fastened on the top of the statue's head. The hijab is blood-red. It is indescribably weird under the light of the torch, as if it has just been dyed red with blood.
Almost instantly, Li Bai figured out what the ceremony in Heishui Village was about tonight. They wanted to cross the river, and not only the villagers wanted to cross, but they also wanted to carry the Lady Zhusheng across.
No, no, these villagers are all the children of the Goddess of Mercy to a certain extent. They naturally obey the orders of their "mother". All of this is prepared for tonight. Their ultimate goal is to cross the river and leave the river that binds them. of the Blackwater River.
"Quick! Hurry up!"
Li Bai also dragged a piece of wood and ran over to help.
In the Blood Empress team, Yao, Shunyu and others were in a worse situation than Li Bai and others.
It was terrible, his face was covered with blood, a lot of his hair fell out, one ear was missing, and his arm was broken. With every step he took, blood spattered down his trouser legs.
Fortunately, these villagers kept their promises. After the death of their opponents, the villagers, including the superior village chief and Elder Sun, did not cause trouble for them again.
Not to mention the ordinary villagers, they all trembled when Yao, Shunyu glanced at them, and no one dared to look at Yao, Shunyu.
"Bah!" Yao, Shun, and Yu spat heavily on the ground, "Those who bully the weak are afraid of the strong!"
His disgust for these disgusting things has reached its peak, and he will never let them go.
Not long ago there was a group of three, but now Huang Jun was stuffed into the box as an offering, and Luan Lihui's head was still boiling in the cauldron of boiling water. The skin and flesh had fallen off, revealing the pale bones.
But what Yao, Shun, and Yu were most worried about now was the situation at Li Bai's place.
"It must succeed..." Yao, Shun and Yu thought to themselves.
"It's done!" Wu Qiang laid the last plank and stood up happily.
Li Bai and Lu Zhangyuan were also there. The three of them looked at the shore near Chi Chi and had mixed feelings for a while.
Li Bai took a step forward and was about to be the first to reach the other side.
But the next second a rough hand stopped her, "Miss Li, don't take risks, let me go!" Wu Qiang said stubbornly: "Those ghosts are very evil, maybe there are some traps."
After finishing speaking, Wu Qiang didn't waste any time and walked onto the shore in a few steps. He bounced back and forth a few times. After finding that there was no problem, he waved to Li Bai happily, "Miss Li, Brother Lu, it's no problem. Hurry up too." Come!"
Li Bai felt a sense of peace when her feet stepped on the soft soil. She knelt half on the ground, pulled off a few grass roots, rubbed them twice and sniffed lightly. A unique smell penetrated her nasal cavity.
"It really smells, it's real here!" Li Bai couldn't hide his joy. He had tried it in the dense forest not long ago, but the grass there had no smell at all.
Everything in Heishui Village is fake. It's like a completely fictitious and absurd world. Li Bai doesn't know how to describe it.
At this moment, Li Bai and the others could already see the approaching team of the Blood Empress. As the villagers carrying torches boarded the bridge, Li Bai finally saw Yao, Shun and Yu following the Zhusheng Empress carrying the sedan.
Moreover, there was only Yao, Shun, and Yu, but the other two were nowhere to be seen.
Seeing the miserable appearance of Yao, Shun, and Yu, Li Bai's anger burst out instantly. She picked up her backpack, which contained a large bag of explosives.
"Miss Li, don't be impulsive!" Wu Qiang hurriedly advised, "Yao, Shun, and Yu are still in the team. If we blow up the bridge now, he will be finished."
Li Bai didn't understand this truth, but the current situation is that Yao, Shun and Yu are behind Empress Zhusheng. If we want to ensure that Yao, Shun and Yu cross the bridge, Empress Zhusheng will definitely be able to come over.
Li Bai can be sure that once Empress Zhusheng crosses the Black Water River, there will be nothing that can restrain her, and she will kill everyone in the most cruel way.
Li Bai is not afraid of death, but she doesn't want to hurt her friends. Now it seems that the three worlds are closely connected to each other. If Empress Zhusheng wins and successfully leaves Heishui Village, there is no guarantee that she will not appear in the rich world of King Jiangcheng.
The vanguard of the Blood Empress team has arrived at the middle of the bridge. It can be seen that the villagers are also walking very carefully, and even repeatedly step on the board to confirm whether it is strong.
Yao Shunyu, who saw Li Bai from a distance, finally breathed a sigh of relief. He understood the current situation more thoroughly than Li Bai and the others. He tried to walk a few steps quickly. If he could cross the bridge before the team arrived, then Li Bai could let go. Blow up bridges.
But as soon as he moved, he was blocked by several villagers with their bodies. It was the same several times in a row, and there was no possibility of breakthrough.
By now he had calmed down, and he was sincerely happy for her when he learned that Li Bai was still alive.
Waving his hands to Li Bai as if to say goodbye, Yao Shunyu reached into his clothes. There was not only a dead baby, but also a quantity of explosives.
Now he also understands that the so-called escort team is just a cover.
It's true that they need to be hostages.
Even if all three of them died, there might be villagers who would disguise themselves as them to confuse Li Bai and others.
There was a fierceness in his eyes. Since Empress Zhusheng wouldn't let him live, he couldn't let Empress Zhusheng and these damn villagers live easily. He planned to detonate the explosive when Empress Zhusheng walked to the middle of the bridge. .
It would not be a problem to use the power of explosives to blow off the temporary planks on the bridge, but when it fell into the water, the Lady of Insect would certainly not be able to hold on.
When Li Bai detonates the explosives on the bridge, even if these ghosts don't fall into the water, they will no longer be able to leave Heishui Village.
Yao and Shunyu guessed that these villagers relied on the strange ability of Zhusheng Empress to survive. As long as Zhusheng Empress died, these villagers would not live long.
"I'll find a way, you just wait, if...if it's too late, blow up the bridge! We must not let those ghosts cross the bridge!"
Li Bai left behind two bundles of explosives, then carried a backpack full of explosives on his back, and resolutely ran towards the bloody team.
The footsteps landed on the wooden board and made a sound of "dongdongdong". Soon Li Bai noticed something was wrong, and there were footsteps behind her.
"Miss Li, we are here to help you too!"
