Chapter 5 The Secret Chapter 57 Surrounding
At some point, it was densely packed and surrounded by 'participants'!
They can't see their faces clearly, whether they are animals or humans, they can only see their green eyes and clusters of floating phosphorus fires.
In an instant, Xiao Xia deeply felt the suffocation feeling surrounded by heavy suffocation.
"I didn't expect you to dare to chase you out!" Guan Zheng asked with confidence.
"You are waiting. If we don't come, will you let your heart down?" Ruan Zhan confronted him, "I won't bother you to go back to the Octagonal Building."
"You are smart, and you can't hide even if you know that you can. But if you don't have that array and only carry these two burdens, how can you fight against me?"
"We have to try to see if we can fight or not." Ruan Zhan answered him in Guan Zheng's words, "It's useless to say more."
Guan Zheng's face changed slightly, he snorted coldly, pulled open his clothes, revealing a small drum on his waist. This was the same as Huang Boheng's behavior, but everyone present knew that his skills were not comparable to Huang Boheng. It was just a puppet of him, he just accepted a little of his thoughts, and the person in front of him was the real person behind the scenes!
I saw Guan Zheng slowly raised his hand and landed heavily on the small drum.
Strangely, there was no sound of drums, which was completely different from the earth-shaking sound that Huang Boheng beat that day. However, despite this, a scattered sound of noise still sounded around, which made the three people surrounded by the circle clearly feel something was approaching a little.
"Isn't this an ultrasound? That animal can hear it but humans can't hear it? Or microwave?" Wan Li was still in a mood to analyze this at this moment, and was not nervous at all.
"Do you want to cook? You still have a microwave?" Ruan Zhan scolded without replying.
Xiao Xia, who was standing behind him, said nothing. She felt Ruan Zhan's shoulders tense, obviously being on guard. She understood that he was taking a defensive stance, because the enemy was strong and we were weak, and defensive counterattack was the best strategy!
I saw that Guan Zheng's movements were very similar to Huang Boheng, but they were not that exaggerated. They did not dance witch dances, but they just beat the drums one after another, and moved lightly under their feet. The movements were fast and slow, and there was no sound in the whole process.
But despite his quietness, the effect is surprisingly good. Obviously, the difference between his witch power and Huang Boheng is not a question of grade - but the absolute difference between the control and the puppet.
I heard the rustling sounds getting stronger and stronger. Although the shadows in front of me didn't move much, everyone knew that the attack was beginning.
The three of them did not speak, and observed the surroundings with caution. Listening carefully to the source of the strange rustling sound, they always felt that it was from the ground. When they looked down the sound, the other two were fine, and Xiao Xia immediately screamed!
Huang Boheng just controlled a few snakes, so she had nightmares. Now the ground was full of even more disgusting things - countless tropical reptiles she had never seen before, strange-shaped snakes, insects, rats and ants, crawling all over the ground, crowding you and me toward the three people in the circle in a regular manner! At first glance, it seemed like a black circle was surrounding them, shrinking, shrinking.
Seeing this, Ruan Zhan immediately waved his handprint and slapped it on the ground, spreading outwards with the flying dust, forming a circle of fire around, not only blocking the crawlers from the outside, but also causing them to escape in scattered with the flames.
Seeing that the situation had slowed down temporarily, Ruan Zhan looked up.
From afar, through the dancing flames, Guan Zheng's face was gloomy and clear, but he always had a contemptuous smile. After seeing Ruan Zhan blocking the crawler's attack with fire, he didn't care at all, and it was completely different from Huang Boheng's panic at that time.
He just grabbed a handful of powder made from his pocket and sprinkled it into the air. Then he accelerated as soon as the powder landed, increasing the frequency and amplitude of the movement. In just over a dozen seconds, the crawlers actually returned to the regular siege and began to attack the fire circle!
Xiao Xia was shocked to see it.
Any animal will be afraid of fire, not to mention that this is not ordinary fire, but fire supported by Ruan Zhan with magic power, which has a more powerful destructive power. However, these crawlers completely violated biological instincts. With Guan Zheng's inaudible instructions, he ignored the existence of the curse fire and continued to squirm towards the fire circle!
Sizzy--
The smell of burnt meat came. The first wave of reptiles had been swallowed by the ruthless fire. The larger reptiles and snakes were not burned for a while. They were still twisting and twisting in pain in the fire, making a "hiss" sound that was not known if it was a scream. However, this had no deterrent effect on the insects behind. Before the first wave of "siege" had stopped, the second wave had arrived, followed by the third wave and the fourth wave, surging like a tide!
"Oh my God, he's getting all the bugs in the whole forest!" Wanli took a breath.
"This fire can't be stopped for long." Ruan Zhan said calmly, but his expression was a little abnormal, "But we have to drag the reinforcements."
"What should I do?" Wanli asked, "This bastard doesn't care about these lowly lives and uses the insect sea tactic so that your curse fire will be destroyed."
"You must drag it until three o'clock in the middle of the night." Ruan Zhan shook his body slightly, "I will add another curse fire and then set a barrier. You two stand back to back, and Wanli will also be a gold medal thug this time." He pointed to the wooden stick in Wanli's hand covered with talismans, and then turned to Xiaoxia, "Xiaoxia, you are responsible for the cracked banner. Remember, no matter how powerful it shakes, don't let go. I see Guan Zheng like this, probably won't cherish ghosts, but I'm afraid that my baby banner will squeeze a little today. Tell me, I can rely on you."
"You can." Xiaoxia swears.
Ruan Zhan nodded. For a moment, Xiaoxia actually felt that his eyes were extremely gentle, but before she could study further, Ruan Zhan turned to Wanli again.
"I won't care about your life or death." At this time, Ruan Zhan actually made a joke, but Wanli's expression was serious.
"You - you won't be now -" Wanli asked stammeringly.
Ruan Zhan didn't say anything, turned around and prevented Xiaoxia from seeing his face. Seeing that the first curse fire was already weak, he was about to be extinguished, and immediately cast a fire handprint, and a void talisman was added to an invisible protective barrier, which was a transparent barrier beside Xiaoxia and Wanli, while he was standing outside the barrier.
After doing all this, even Xiaoxia could see that his steps were staggering, not to mention Wanli beside him and Guan Zheng who had been staring at the situation inside.
Guan Zheng was stunned for a moment. At first, he thought it was Ruan Zhan using some tricks, but then he understood what was going on. He couldn't help but laugh proudly, "I said why did this Wan betrothed by my dead Gu but not dead? He thought you used some great tricks to break my supreme witch technique. It turned out that you led his Gu to you. Haha, great friendship, admire! Admiration!"
In one sentence, it was like a muffled thunder striking Xiao Xia’s unprepared heart!
Did he lead Wanli's Gu to himself? So, he never said what method he used to save Wanli! So he would have hurt so much that day! Will he die? Will he be like all ghosts, unable to see or touch? Will she lose him forever?
She turned her head and looked at Wanli.
Wan Li nodded in annoyance, "Yes, this bastard forced my Gu to him, and didn't ask me for my opinion. It made me feel so guilty from that day that I didn't even dare to breathe. If he died, I would even have the desire to bury him with him."
Xiao Xia couldn't speak, but there seemed to be a hand tearing her in her heart. She didn't understand whether it was pain or sorrow, so she felt that her whole heart was exhausted, leaving only a layer of shell slowly shattering. This was completely different from the extreme distress and reluctance she felt when she learned that Wan Li was about to die. It was confusion and powerless, and she couldn't even say what she felt in her heart.
"Will he be fine if we kill Guan Zheng?" she asked in a daze, but she couldn't hear Wanli's answer in her ears, and she put her whole body and mind on things outside the barrier.
Ruan Zhan stood up straight, trying his best to restrain the trembling caused by the huge pain, and still stood there proudly. After Guan Zheng laughed wildly for a while, he suddenly changed to a sinister smile.
"The Gu is completely under my control in the body of ordinary people. I don't know what if it's in your body?" He kept directing the crawler's attack in his hand, "Do you think we want to try it?"
"No!" Xiao Xia shouted on the side.
She didn't want to see him suffer, and it was enough to see him last time. She would rather see him with a smile that kept people from thousands of miles away, and would rather he ignore her than see him suffer!
But she forgot that her words would have a counterproductive effect, because Guan Zheng could not tolerate the slightest "thing" he liked belonged to others. So, before she finished speaking, Guan Zheng began to summon the dead Gu lurking in Ruan Zhan's body.
His movements were still not stopped, but he began to recite spells. Every time he recited, Ruan Zhan would bend a little, and finally sat cross-legged on the ground, closing his eyes like meditating, and pinching a strange decision in his hand, obviously fighting against the monster Gu in his body.
At this time, the first fire ring had been suppressed by all kinds of insects and snakes crawling desperately. The controlled crawlers had already waded through the first line of defense and were trying to pass through the second fire ring. However, Ruan Zhan was like entering a meditation. Xiao Xia and Wan Li in the barrier could not go out to help him, so they could only be anxious.
Perhaps because Ruan Zhan was distracted from fighting with the death Gu in his body, the fire on the second fire ring formed by the fire hand seal was obviously not as good as the first protection ring. The weak flame was less than half a foot high, allowing some animals that could jump to pass through it. Other reptiles who could not come directly still pressed the fire with their bodies, and in a moment they pressed the flames like charcoal fire.
Seeing this, Guan Zheng smiled even more proudly. He probably felt that the time had come, so he immediately changed the rhythm and footwork of the drum beat, driving other things hiding behind the dense forest to come out.
First, there were larger animals, and even if they were black, they couldn't see clearly. They were probably four-legged animals like wild boars and dogs, then there were big pythons with their heads raised and finally there were ghosts of all shapes! Some had no heads, some had few arms and legs, and some simply attached themselves to strange plants and moved them little by little!
The animals that were controlled rushed into the second fire circle immediately rushed towards the three people. However, for some reason, they did not attack Ruan Zhan, but just surrounded him with fierce eyes. Although the inaudible drum sound was so urgent, they just dared not enter three feet in front of Ruan Zhan, and could only hesitate and wander in pain outside.
Especially those ghosts, as soon as they approached, the blood-wood sword on Ruan Zhan's knee began to shake violently, emitting a bright red light, scaring the ghosts to squeak backwards. If it weren't for the fact that they were under Guan Zheng's control, they would have probably escaped as far as they could.
Although they did not dare to attack Ruan Zhan, they would not be polite to Wanli and Xiaoxia. Although these two people were in the barrier and they could not attack for a while, they bravely rushed to the barrier wall!
In a moment, the barrier wall was covered with "siegemen", and they used various methods to attack the barrier, trying to break the last fortress like breaking through the two fire circles! The reptiles were chewing teeth, the four-legged animals repeatedly rushing, the python swims, and the ghosts used all tools to beat them, making the entire barrier feel like the earth was shaking.
Xiao Xia pressed against Wan Li's back at a loss, panic and anxious.
It was already dark and there was no moon. Now the small barrier created by Ruan Zhan was blocked by various monsters outside the small barrier, and it was pitch black inside. Not only could not even see Wanli's face clearly, but what made her unbearable was that she could not see Ruan Zhan's situation.
The only light actually came from some insects themselves, and those who tried to rush in, unable to tell whether it was an animal or a ghost, and were spinning around!
"Don't be afraid!" Wanli's steady voice came from behind, which made Xiao Xia feel a little relieved, which made her realize in her heart that she was not alone!
"I'm worried about Ruan Zhan!" Xiaoxia's voice was trembling, "I can't see him, I can't feel at ease."
"I'm the same. I'll find a way to stand!" Wanli said as he stepped away from Xiaoxia.
Xiaoxia only felt her back empty, but before she realized what was going on, she heard a loud "dong" sound, and then her eyes suddenly lit up.
A blank space appeared on the barrier wall. Wanli stood there with the wooden stick covered with talismans, and another blow was made toward it. A blue spark burst out at the collision, which shocked the things lying on the barrier wall.
It turned out that he was using this method to shake off the eyes!
Seeing this, Xiao Xia immediately ran to the blank space and looked out, not caring about how disgusting the thing shaking in front of her eyes was!
"Wait for a moment." Wanli pulled back Xiaoxia, who had not found Ruan Zhan's figure, "Let me maintain it, I can't continue to do this. Although the talisman wooden stick he made would not destroy his barrier, now we have to worry about internal and external troubles, we must be careful!"
Wanli said as he raised the wooden stick and looked around the light. After hesitating for a moment, he took down one of the talismans and reposted it to the unblocked barrier wall.
With a red light flashing by the spell, the crawlers and ghosts who were trying to reoccupy the territory immediately flashed to the side in horror.
"It seems that I admit my mistake. I think I have the talent to be a mage!" Wanli smiled, "Why are you standing there? Come and see!"
When Xiao Xia heard this, she immediately jumped to the place that looked like a small window and looked out.
Ruan Zhan was still sitting there, her clothes pressing against her thin but powerful body, and she was obviously wet with sweat. The things around her were still surrounded and remained in a stalemate.
Chapter completed!
