Chapter 70: New Mode of Practice
Although the blood corpses moved slowly, while my mind was racing, they had slowly come behind me.
I didn't react at first.
A big hand patted my shoulder.
I thought it was my cousin who patted me, but then I thought about it and realized that shouldn’t be the case. He should know that you shouldn’t pat someone on the shoulder in this situation.
This place is already weird in the first place. If one of the three true fires of a person is dispersed, it would be a disaster.
Sure enough, before I could react, I smelled a bloody odor.
The smell went straight into my nasal cavity. How close must the distance be to have such a strong smell?
I turned around while retching, and found the bloody corpse in front of me.
We were so close that if I took a step forward our faces would be touching.
But at this time, I was blocked by a big iron gate behind me and there was no way for me to retreat.
I was so scared that I broke out in cold sweats, and my cousin was also entangled by a bloody corpse.
I was breathing softly, but my breathing was unstable and trembling slightly.
He put a little force on my shoulder, but his strength was beyond the reach of ordinary people. I just felt that the bones in my arms were about to be crushed by him.
I subconsciously reached out and opened his hand, and at the same time quickly reached into the treasure bag.
In a panic, I only found some black glutinous rice.
That's not bad.
After all, after I took out the black glutinous rice from the treasure bag, the blood corpse was obviously afraid. He took a few steps back and kept a distance from me.
I threw half of the black glutinous rice on my cousin, and the bloody corpse that was strangling his neck quickly retreated.
"Where's your all-purpose saber? Take it out!"
As my cousin spoke, he reached into my treasure bag and pulled out the peach wood sword.
I know that he needs my blood to suppress these blood corpses. Since he wants to use my blood, he naturally needs me to perform a ritual.
"Listen to me and do what I say."
My cousin took a sip of Erguotou, put the peach wood sword in my hand, stood behind me, and sprayed the Erguotou in his mouth towards my peach wood sword.
I also reached into my pocket and reached directly for the multi-purpose military knife.
The saber scratched my hand, and the pain made me wake up instantly.
I knew that this operation was related to our lives, so I carefully remembered the pain, at least so that I could stay sober during this operation.
"Smear your blood on the peach wood sword, and then repeat after me."
According to my cousin's instructions, I did it one by one.
"The Way of Heaven is complete, three and five are complete, the sun and the moon are together, coming out of the darkness and entering the dark. The Qi spreads the Way, the Qi communicates with the gods, the Qi moves the evil, the ghosts and thieves are all destroyed. Those who see me are blind, those who hear me are deaf, those who dare to plot against me will suffer the consequences, I am lucky and they are unlucky."
I followed my cousin and started to recite word by word. When he reached the end, he reminded me that when I said the word "break", I must be angry and full of murderous intent, so that the evil spirits would be afraid of me.
"break!"
I shouted.
The peach wood sword suddenly emitted light, just like Dong Jing had done before.
The light was a bit dazzling, or maybe it was because it was my first time doing this, I didn’t get it right and closed my eyes.
This resulted in me being unable to see the condition of the bloody corpses in front of me.
When I opened my eyes again, the bloody corpses had fallen to the ground one by one.
I breathed a sigh of relief and remained calm on the surface, but my heart was beating so fast that it seemed like it was going to pierce my eardrums.
"It's all right..."
My cousin's voice was obviously a little tired. He took a moment to speak and said, "Let's see how to open this door."
"Do we have to go through all these games?" I looked at my cousin in confusion.
According to my previous experience, as long as I smell that strange spice, I have definitely entered a fantasy world.
In fact, as long as we have a way to break the illusion, we can leave this nine-ring trap.
In my opinion, there is no need for us to complete this formation.
My cousin shook his head and said, "This is not an ordinary illusion. I just told you that this is a nine-ring formation. In the last round, we will find something that can break this formation. Usually, the person who sets up the formation will put the thing that can break the formation in the last round so as to protect it."
"This person is not that simple, so don't think this matter is too simple."
After hearing what he said, I roughly knew that I couldn't escape this nine-ring trap regarding this matter.
So I began to focus all my attention on the big iron gate.
I put my hand back into the handprint on the iron gate, and suddenly one of the four beads on the iron gate lit up.
What's happening here?
"Didn't you put your hand there just now? Why didn't the four beads light up?" My cousin looked at me with some confusion.
I didn't understand why, so I looked at my hands.
Just now, the bloody corpses put their hands on my shoulders, which I opened with my hands. Now there is their blood on my hands.
I see.
This door needs to be opened by them, not necessarily with their hands, but definitely with their blood.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but admire him.
The person who set up the nine-ring trap is indeed very powerful and meticulous.
I suddenly turned the Nine-Ring Game into a game, and I started to become interested in this game.
This is like the escape room games that young people in the city always like to play.
We must find the key to each level here before we can enter the next level .
Wait until all the situations are broken by us.
The thing that can break the formation is in the last round.
I stained my hands with the blood of the corpse and pressed my palms on them one by one.
Just as I thought, after I pressed all four palm prints, the iron gate opened.
We made it to the next round successfully.
But it was darker here than I thought. Fortunately, I had a powerful flashlight in my bag.
The road ahead was pitch black, and even with a powerful flashlight on, the fog was very strong.
The visibility here is only 20 percent, and we have no idea what is waiting for us ahead.
My cousin also had a powerful flashlight in his hand, which he shone everywhere. I knew he was surveying the environment.
And my flashlight was only shining on the road ahead from beginning to end.
While he was observing the environment, I had to make sure nothing would suddenly appear in front of me.
The more things I deal with with him, the better our understanding of each other has improved.
In this way, we move forward step by step, trying to find the next checkpoint.
Although I was mentally prepared that the road ahead would not be easy, I did not expect that there would be so many dangers waiting for us.
