"I don't dare to say anything without absolute evidence." After listening to Haller's probing question, which had exactly the same idea as his own, Avis agreed in her heart, but after all, she was not an omniscient and omnipotent ***. Wise people often have a common problem when making assumptions without sufficient clues to support it, that is, they are rarely sure. Unless they are 100% sure, wise people who are good at analysis will not say anything. Just like now, Haller clearly She had expressed her inner thoughts, but Avis was still hesitant and only used a general tone of voice to disguise her agreement.
Of course, is disguised approval not a kind of approval? After getting the approval response from Ives, no matter who it was, the three of them broke into cold sweat for a while. The fear in their hearts was unspeakable. Unexpectedly, the three of them had walked away from the gate of hell before! Fortunately nothing happened at that time, otherwise...
After wiping the sweat on his forehead, Abdullah immediately moved, raised his left hand to face the ring, and then decisively opened the spiritual connection: "I am your captain Abdullah, everyone listen now, If you encounter a palace or a house in the maze, don’t be curious, but stay away immediately and remember not to go in!”
With the spiritual connection, the next moment, Abdullah's voice clearly echoed in the minds of all the Arab team members, causing Feda who had already reached the palace door to suddenly stop, along with a girl named Selsa. The new female member of the Arab team.
In the alleyway, I saw Fei Da and the two who were approaching the gate suddenly stopped, and then their faces changed color and there was no movement. Kong Ling, who was happily following behind them, was confused. He blinked and hurriedly looked at Fei Da who was frozen. He urged, "Hey, Uncle Baipao, what happened to you and Sister Shajin? Why did you suddenly stop moving? Come in quickly?"
Perhaps he was dissatisfied with the title "Uncle in white robe" from Kong Ling's mouth. Feida frowned. He did not immediately tell the reason. Instead, he turned back first and said seriously to the girl behind him who was urging fiercely: "Hey, the girl from the Shenzhou team. , can you please stop calling me by this title? My name is Feida, and my name is two characters shorter than 'Uncle White Robe'. It is much simpler both in theory and in practice!"
It was obvious that Feida had indeed been dissatisfied with the title of Ethereal for a long time. In fact, he had been dissatisfied from the moment he met the girl. Yes, as early as half an hour ago, he and she were traveling through the maze. Selsa accidentally met this girl from the Chinese team named Kong Ling. First of all, it is certain that because the Arab team and the Chinese team have reached a consensus on cooperation and are currently allies, after meeting Kong Ling, out of good intentions , Feida simply let the girl join the team, and a temporary three-person team was formed. Although he also knew that the girl in front of him looked young but was actually a senior, the other party was still a minor after all, so he did not Taking the girl seriously, he just led the girl and newcomer Selsa to continue traveling through the labyrinth-like alleyways. Although the situation was simple, straightforward and uncomplicated, unexpectedly, the girl named Kong Ling was extremely arrogant and naturally familiar!
Ever since he formed a team with the girl, the other party immediately gave him and Selsa a unique nickname. He called Selsa, who was wearing a gauze scarf, sister gauze scarf, and he called himself uncle white robe. Bo Bo had nothing to say. Sometimes he asked who the *** was, sometimes he asked what Arabs usually eat, and even asked about halal. They were all boring questions. Of course, this was not the point. The key was that the girl was actually doing this. Even he was nervous in the gloomy tomb. They were talking and laughing without any nervousness or fear at all. Feida was secretly surprised when he saw this. He didn't expect that there are such people in the world who ignore fear? It seems that the Shenzhou team is really a very magical team.
"Hey, girl from the Shenzhou team, can you please stop calling me by this name? My name is Feida, and my name is two characters shorter than 'Uncle White Robe'. It is much simpler both in theory and in practice. !".
"Okay, I understand, Uncle Baipao!"
At this moment, when he heard Kong Ling's casual answer that could make anyone angry to death, Feida felt a twinge of pain in his forehead. Fortunately, he knew how to control his emotions. He took a long breath. After forcibly calming down his mentality, Feida was too lazy to continue. He corrected the problem of the title that was destined to be impossible to change, and instead looked away at Selsa. Although Selsa was just a newcomer who had just joined, the opponent was from his own team after all. Since they were in the same team, then the opponent must be the same Own
I also received Abdullah's spiritual connection, and must have heard the news notification just now.
"Fei, Mr. Feida, was it the captain's voice just now? But why didn't he let us get close? Also, why can the captain contact us easily? But we can't?" It was exactly as expected, after listening After Abdullah's news was announced, leaving aside what happened to Feida, the new female named Selsa really couldn't understand it. She had no choice but to timidly ask Feida, who was a senior. Seeing Selsa Inquiring out of curiosity, Feida was direct, maintaining basic composure, and explained to the female newcomer he met first: "The reason why the captain was able to contact us when all the communication equipment failed was because of the ring. I miss you." You should have seen the ruby ring on the captain's hand. In fact, that thing is not a decoration, but a proof of the captain's identity. Through the ring, the captain can directly contact his teammates through telepathy. As for why the captain doesn't let us get close to the palace? Maybe? There must be danger there."
"We can't go here, let's go!"
Having said this, regardless of whether Selsa understood it or not, the next moment, Feida said hello and turned around, no longer approaching the palace gate he had just discovered in front of him, as if he had given up on checking. The result was certain. Feida took the lead and left. Selsa, who was afraid of being left alone, followed closely, but...
"etc!"
Seeing the two people turning around and leaving, Kong Ling, who wanted to go in and take a look, was obviously not happy. Although he knew the whole story from the conversation between the two just now, and knew the reason why the two gave up the investigation, he also came to the other side's captain to inform them, but But she was not from the Arab team, and she did not receive any reminder from He Fei during the whole process, so she stopped the two of them, and then pointed to the palace opposite and said to Feida in a rather dissatisfied tone: "Hey, I said Uncle White Robe , you just gave up like this? We finally found an unusual place, what if there is a soul-fixing bead in it?"
"I don't know if there is a soul-fixing orb, but I do know that Abdullah will not deceive his teammates. Since he asked us to stay away from the palace, there is a high probability that there is danger hidden in the palace!" In response to Kongling's question, Feida said The response was still direct. Not only that, Xu was eager to leave here. After saying that, regardless of Kong Ling's reaction, Feida pulled Kong Ling and turned around and left: "Girl, don't be stubborn, hurry up and leave here with me."
"Hey! What are you doing? Let go, don't drag me, don't drag me!".
Finally, under Feida's strong pull, even though Kong Ling was dissatisfied and even struggled, she was just a weak girl after all. Under the pull of Feida, a strong man who was no less powerful than Cheng Ying, her struggle and resistance were completely useless. Therefore, he could only be forcibly pulled away, and then continued to follow the Arab team veteran blindly through the maze in an extremely reluctant manner, while Feida, who was carrying a mysterious scimitar, still observed along the way as before. , his eyes frequently glanced back and forth on both sides of the alley. Yes, until now, Feida has been carrying out the original order and searching for the soul-fixing beads in the maze in strict accordance with Abdullah's requirements. That is true, but from the beginning So far, he has not discovered anything, and he does not deny that he has just discovered a palace. However, under Abdullah's sudden reminder, Feida decisively gave up until...
"Well?"
Until 5 minutes later, while walking through an alleyway that I had never seen before, Selsa suddenly paused and shined the flashlight directly at the wall beside her. Under the guidance of Selsa, Feida and Kong Ling also They turned their flashlights to the corner one after another, and then collectively saw a pile of black ashes.
"What is this?" Seeing a pile of inexplicable black ash scattered by the wall, Selsa was a little curious and subconsciously asked Feida, but Feida did not answer. Instead, she half-knelt down and leaned over to observe, and the equally curious Kong Ling At the same time, we looked closely at the black gray under our feet.
"Eh? Black and gray? What is this?" Unlike Kong Ling, who was currently muttering to himself with great interest, Feida beside him remained silent. Apart from his suspicious eyes and slightly twisted eyebrows, questions also popped up in his mind. It was obvious that for It was impossible for Feida to see anything about the obviously weird black ashes in front of him. Let alone him, even if the police came, he would still regard it as black ashes. No one could find out the origin of the ashes. The above Every description is true, but as a veteran, Feida still knows the truth of paying attention to details, and understands that the less clear the meaning of something, the more valuable it is to pay attention to.
Thinking of this, Feida ignored it
The extremely unreliable girl from the Chinese team next to her raised her head and asked Selsa, who was the first to discover the ashes: "Selsa, besides the black ashes, did you see anything else just now?" .
"No? I only saw this pile of black ash and nothing else?" As a newcomer, Selsa didn't quite understand what Feida meant, but she still shook her head and answered truthfully. As for Feida …
(Damn, it would be great if Avis was here. With her wisdom, she should be able to figure out something.)
Somehow, when he learned that the other party had found nothing, Feida's already slightly frowned eyebrows became even tighter. At the same time, he lowered his head to look at the ashes again. Seeing that Feida was so concerned about the black ashes under his feet, Selsa became even more confused. For a while, the two of them were observing carefully, with their brows furrowed and their expressions blank and incomprehensible. However, Kong Ling, who was ignored by Fei Da the whole time because he was too unreliable, gradually showed a little strange color. Yes, if the first sight of Kong Ling was black and gray under his feet, She had been watching with interest, but as the observation continued, the girl's expression gradually changed, revealing a solemn look for the first time! .
(Um?)
The change in Ethereal's expression was inadvertently seen by Feida who was squatting next to him. He saw that the girl's expression was different. Although he had already classified the girl as an unreliable person in his heart, when he couldn't find any clues, he hugged her. With a trying mentality, Feida turned to Kong Ling and asked tentatively: "What's wrong, girl? Did you see something?"
As mentioned above, seeing Kong Ling's solemn expression while observing Hei Hui, with a trying attitude, Feida asked casually, mentally prepared in advance, and had no intention of hearing from this extremely unreliable girl. Hearing some valuable news, what surprised Feida was...
As soon as he asked the question, the girl replied with a shocking and shocking answer:
"Well, I can see it. This is a dead person, a pile of ashes transformed from a corpse."
What! ! !
I don't know whether the girl's answer was too shocking or she didn't expect the ashes to be turned into human beings. As soon as Kong Ling finished speaking, Selsa turned pale and started to tremble. She was obviously very frightened by Kong Ling's answer. Feida, who was frowning, suddenly changed his expression. After hearing this, he stood up with a cry, then stared at the void and continued to ask: "What did you say? Dead people? Is this pile of black ashes transformed by humans!?"
"Yes, it is indeed black ash turned by humans? What's wrong?" Faced with Feida's nervous questioning full of surprise, he shrugged, ethereal but not nervous, still nodded in response with a calm tone, and insisted on ashes. It just evolves from people. As for Feida...
"you……"
He wanted to refute the girl, but strangely, at this moment, Feida stopped talking, and he swallowed the refutation he was about to say. The reason why he stopped abruptly as soon as he started speaking was , just now, he thought of something. He remembered that when he was in the burial hall filled with bones earlier, the senior member of the Shenzhou team named Chen Xiaoyao had deliberately scared everyone, saying that the entire hall was full of innocent souls. In the horror, including Including him and Feida, all members of our own team looked at Haller, who could use his spiritual sense to detect, while the Shenzhou team all looked at the girl named Kong Ling. .
(Could it be...)
Recalling this point, Feida stopped talking. He swallowed back the rebuttal he was about to say. Then he used curious eyes to re-examine the girl from the Chinese team who had been labeled as "unreliable" by him. The girl asked tentatively in a hesitant tone: "Well, your name is Kong Ling, right? Since you say this pile of ashes is the evolution of humans, where is the evidence?"
"Evidence? Do you need evidence? My eyes are the evidence." Seeing Feida asking himself hesitantly, Kong Ling didn't care. He first raised his finger to point at his eyes, then continued unhurriedly, pointing directly to the opposite side. Selsa, then said something that could make Selsa and anyone else’s hair stand on end: “That person is still here, standing behind Sister Shajie.”
"ah!!!"
Sure enough, when she saw Kong Ling raising her hand and pointed at herself, and hearing someone standing behind her with her own ears, Selsa was shocked as soon as Kong Ling finished speaking! He was so frightened that he screamed uncontrollably. At the same time, he turned around in panic and looked behind him, only to see nothing behind him.
What Selsa can't see
Feida was also unable to witness it. He stared for a moment with his eyes wide open. After confirming that there was no one on the wall, Feida turned back to look at Kong Ling again. When he came into contact with the man's doubtful gaze, he saw Selsa's face full of fear and Kong Ling smiled slightly. Said: "Hey, Uncle Baipao, you and Sister Shajin, please stop looking. There are some things you can't see, because what I just said is the soul, and no one can see it except me."
Yes, Kong Ling is not joking, and what he said is true. At this moment, if you change your perspective and look at the location pointed by Kong Ling alone, what you will see is a foreign man with a transparent body. The man lowered his head for a long time. There was no response, and she was currently standing motionless behind Selsa. Selsa, who was very close at hand, had a blank expression, obviously she had never seen the man behind her.
There is no doubt that it is the soul, which is the lowest level of spirit body in the ghost system. It belongs to the soul that instinctively leaves the body after death. Of course, after death, the soul will forcibly leave the body and then dissipate, but it does not disappear immediately. , but will stay next to the corpse for a period of time. The specific time is not fixed. Some will stay for a moment and then dissipate, and some will stay for a few hours or days. At this moment, with a pair of special eyes, the man's dead body is revealed. The last soul was witnessed by Kong Ling in this way. Not only that, but it was also based on the principle that souls tend to stay near corpses. Although there was no corpse at the scene, Kong Ling could guess that the pile of ashes was very strange, nine out of ten times. It's a corpse!
The soul poses no threat to humans, and Kong Ling, who is used to seeing all kinds of ghosts since she was little, doesn't care too much. She just pointed her finger and didn't care, but Selsa was scared to death. She is still filming Feida was holding her chest in fear. Of course, this was not the point. The point was that after listening to Kong Ling's explanation and the evidence of his invisible soul, he seemed to understand something. Feida no longer struggled with the soul issue, but looked up and down at Kong Ling and observed for a moment. Finally, he stared at the girl and continued to ask: "Could it be your eyes..."
"Hey, uncle Baipao, you are not slow to react!" Pointing to his eyes again, he grinned ethereally and said, "Yes, my eyes are a bit special. I can usually see a lot of things that ordinary people can't see. Uh, let's put it that way. Well, as long as it is a spirit body, I can see it! Also, my eyes can not only see the spirit body, but also see through any disguise!"
I see.
After receiving Kong Ling's affirmative answer, which was like boasting, Feida finally understood it completely. Only then did he know why this girl was always receiving extra attention in the Shenzhou team despite her annoying words. It turned out that the girl and Harer of her own team They are also people with special abilities. If the old man Haller here can detect spiritual bodies with some kind of spiritual energy called "divine consciousness", then the girl named Kongling in front of him can simply use her eyes to see, and not only can she discover There are many ghosts and spirits that are invisible to the naked eye, and even the disguises of ghosts can be seen through! This ability is amazing, and its actual help to the team is no less than that of Haller on their side, maybe even more!
Thinking of this, Feida's expression changed slightly, and he gradually paid more attention to this annoying girl with a bad mouth. He was about to ask Kong Ling what the soul looked like, and whether it was a senior person he knew. However, it was just At this moment, on the opposite side, Kong Ling, who was just complacent just now, suddenly changed his expression, as if he saw something. For some reason, Kong Ling's eyes widened slightly, and his gaze was fixed on the front of the alleyway. .
And what’s even weirder is…
In addition to staring forward with wide eyes, Kong Ling also moved her lips slightly during the process and murmured in a low voice: "Then, what is that..."
Ding!
Seeing Kong Ling look forward with a different expression, how could he bother to ask questions? The moment his heart trembled, Feida reacted very quickly and quickly turned his head to look ahead. But the strange thing was... He thought he would see something when he turned around, but unexpectedly when he turned around he saw nothing. Even if he raised his flashlight and shone it carefully, there was actually nothing. Only air can be seen, the alleyway is completely empty, and there is nothing on the other side.
(Um?)
As the saying goes, nothing is absolute. Perhaps in the eyes of Feida and Selsa, there is nothing in front of them, and nothing exists, but in Kongling's eyes, it is absolutely not the case, because when she reaches something, she truly makes a discovery. At this moment, In the ethereal special field of vision, blood appeared in front, and a large sea of blood more majestic and turbulent than the waves was roaring and swarming in! ! !
This invisible crimson sea of blood is just like this with nothing
Omens swept out from the corner in front, then poured into the alleyway, rushing straight towards the ethereal three people who were in the alleyway! .
Wow!
Because the red sea of blood was too fast, without even waiting for Kong Ling to issue a warning, the sea of blood came in front of him in the blink of an eye, swallowing and drowning the three people. Of course, because the sea of blood did not really exist, so after being swallowed by the sea of blood, the three people on the scene were There was no feeling. In fact, except for Kong Ling's vision turning red, no one, including Kong Ling himself, noticed anything unusual. In other words, from Feida and Selsa's point of view, nothing happened just now, and the alleyway was still there. In that dark alley, the scene was still the same silent scene, and because nothing unusual had happened, he watched nervously for a long time. After he was convinced that there was nothing abnormal nearby, Feida looked at Kongling again. As for Kongling?
She ignored Feida and just continued to observe intently in the blood-red alley. She glanced around the alley with very rare nervous eyes, and then...
She saw faces.
No, that was not a human face, but a body, a humanoid body that suddenly emerged from the sea of blood, a terrifying body composed of a large number of human faces! ! !
in addition……
When Kong Ling saw a body composed of countless faces, at the same time, Feida, who was standing next to him, also saw another abnormal scene that was completely different from what Kong Ling saw:
He saw ripples.
Yes, as the transparent sea of blood filled the alleyway, when Kong Ling discovered a body composed of dense human faces in the sea of blood, Feida also saw ripples. First, a group of oscillating ripples like water splashes appeared inexplicably in the air. , then, as the ripples spread, a woman in exquisite ancient clothes emerged from the ripples, appearing out of thin air in an illogical way, appearing out of thin air, and just appeared behind Selsa who was looking at a loss on the opposite side. ! ! !
