Chapter 1440 The passing vitality
In the darkness, only a chaotic sound was heard.
There was the sound of something being cut off.
The sound of someone falling to the ground.
The smell of blood is everywhere.
"Is everyone okay?" I asked as I ran.
"I'm fine!"
"Sect Master, I'm fine!"
"fine!"
"Follow up quickly!"
Others followed one after another.
"Maintain the original formation!"
Aaron took the lead, the others were in the middle, and I held back.
"quick!"
The house kept shrinking, and when we were about to get closer to the light, the space here had shrunk to the point where only one person could pass.
It was a circular hole.
The light comes from outside.
As we approached, the swaying trees outside the cave became faintly visible.
"The exit is outside!"
Seeing hope, everyone cheered up and rushed over in one go.
By the time we reached the cave entrance, the house had already begun to squeeze our bodies.
Aaron was the first to drill outward.
But at this moment, a huge and sharp scissors suddenly appeared at the entrance of the hole.
"careful!"
Aaron reacted quickly and jumped out first.
The big scissors cut behind him with a click.
After he went out, he was not idle. He seemed to be fighting with something.
"Gao Jiang, hurry up!"
Gao Jiang looked at the scissors that were opening and closing outside the cave, took a deep breath, and jumped out while the scissors were opening.
After rolling on the spot, he got up, wiped his sweat, and waved to us.
"It's not as difficult as you think, as long as you know the timing right, you'll be fine!"
Then, he went to help Aaron.
That thing outside seems difficult to deal with.
"Shan Wen, don't be afraid. If you don't get out, we won't be able to get out." I urged.
The house is getting smaller and smaller, and the space for activities is getting smaller and smaller.
If I keep dilly-dallying, I won’t be able to jump out.
"Fight!"
Shan Wen gritted his teeth and jumped out with a look of death.
Not cut by scissors.
"Shanwu! Follow!"
Shanwu took a breath and jumped out smoothly.
Only the mountains and rivers were left. His legs were trembling and he couldn't use any strength at all.
"Get out of here, you!"
I saw the right moment and kicked him in the butt.
"Ahhhh——"
He yelled, throwing himself from between the blades of the scissors and falling flat on his face.
Shanwen and Shanwu quickly went up to help him up.
They all looked at me nervously.
At this time, the hole had shrunk so much that I had to squeeze out and couldn't jump at all.
The sharp scissors were hanging above the hole, opening and closing continuously.
The sound of clicking was making one's scalp numb.
"metropolitan."
I held the hole with one hand and pushed open the umbrella sheath with the other.
The long knife flew out like lightning.
when!
There was a loud bang.
The long knife got stuck in the middle of the big scissors, causing a few sparks to fly.
I took this opportunity and jumped out.
With his feet on the ground, he turned around, grabbed the handle of the knife, and slashed upwards.
A long knife cuts iron like clay.
The big scissors were split in half and instantly turned into ashes.
Looking back, I saw nothing more than a mottled wall of a dilapidated village house.
Aaron and Gao Jiang finally ended the battle.
A black mass gradually turned into ashes in the grass.
"What's guarding here?" I went over and asked.
"It's a strange black shadow with no real body. Anyway, it's not a person." Gao Jiang shook his head.
I looked at Aaron.
"Facial sores," he replied simply.
"Human facial sores?" I thought thoughtfully, "Eight Bitter Village, eight houses, and eight immortal envoys."
"Even if you come out of the house, there will still be angels ambushing you outside, right?"
Aaron didn't speak, which was his acquiescence.
"But haven't the eight immortal envoys been destroyed by me?"
"The Immortal Envoy is just a position." Aaron explained.
"That's right, there's not just one facial sore." I looked at the house opposite.
Lao Wang and the others haven't come out yet.
But we had checked before and there were no ambushes in front of or behind the house.
I thought for a while, I should only meet them after coming out of the house.
Although everyone is in the same place, they do not belong to the same space.
The houses in the village are the passages.
This strange situation should be related to Xuanwu's ability.
"There is no turning back when you shoot a bow!"
"Come on, Lao Wang!"
"I can't help you this time."
I withdrew my gaze and led the sect members towards the next house with normal expressions.
"Is everyone mentally prepared now?"
"As long as you can overcome the psychological barriers, it's actually not that difficult inside."
It was mainly for Shan Wen and the others, but after passing the first room, they should have a good idea that it would be much better than at the beginning.
"Yes, Sect Master!"
Nodding, I took the lead in stepping into the dark door.
As soon as I entered the door, I felt a strong discomfort coming from my body.
He seemed particularly weak and tired.
But the good thing this time is that the lighting equipment works.
Several rays of flashlight light crisscrossed the room, and the surrounding situation was clearly visible.
Pale white walls.
Light blue curtains.
The air was filled with a strong smell of disinfectant.
Several iron beds were placed against the wall.
"It's actually a ward?"
Everyone walked in cautiously.
The discomfort became more and more intense, as if the body's functions were being drained away bit by bit.
"Ah, my hair, why did all my hair fall out!" Shanwu suddenly shouted miserably.
He just scratched his head and all his hair fell out.
"I, I cough cough cough." Shan Wenze's face turned sallow and he couldn't stop coughing, as if he could cough up his lungs, and he couldn't even speak.
"I have no feeling in my legs." Shanshui was sitting on the ground, as if he was paralyzed.
"Sect Master, I also feel uncomfortable in my stomach. It hurts." Gao Jiang also looked pale.
"This is illness." Aaron said panting, holding his chest.
"I can see it." I nodded, "Everyone who enters this house will suffer from illness."
In the short half-minute we talked, my body's functions dropped a bit.
This feeling of life disappearing little by little is really not good.
"Oops, I seem to be getting worse." Shanwu was left with a bald head, his cheeks were sunken quickly, and his eyes were dull.
Like a terminal cancer patient.
Shan Shui no longer coughed, but it was difficult to breathe. It was like a broken bellows was struggling to pull in his chest.
"There are hospital beds there, can we go there and take a rest?" Gao Jiang leaned against the wall, pressing his hand on his stomach, frowning.
"I'm afraid not."
I shook my head.
"I always felt like I would lie down on those beds and never get up."
"Then what should we do?" Big beads of sweat rolled down Gao Jiang's face, and he gritted his teeth and held on as hard as he could.
"I don't know how to crack it." Aaron shook his head.
I thought about it and said, "Hold on! These illnesses and pains are just illusions. There is no need to be afraid, let alone be defeated by them!"
"What a fool! I don't believe it anymore!" Gao Jiang said a curse word to himself.
Everyone suffered in silence.
And I was shining my flashlight around the house.
I always feel like there is something in the house that is sucking the life force out of us.
