Chapter 39: Going to die
I was racing against time, betting on the lives of Huigen, Zhao Hong and Qiangzi. I couldn’t afford to lose!
I could only concentrate on the task at hand, so much so that I forgot where I was and the pain from my wounds. The only thing I couldn’t forget was that Huigen, Zhao Hong and Qiangzi were still fighting!
The air around me began to grow hot. This was the second time I had used this technique this year. There was no doubt that the summer environment gave this technique great room for development, and the warehouse itself was a place that needed to be kept dry!
I recited the incantation, and the clouds and water flowing in the sky were summoned by the method of borrowing the heavenly fire. I dared not make the slightest mistake. Finally, the critical moment arrived. I took out a piece of paper soaked in water from my yellow cloth bag and threw it out!
The hot air around me helped me a lot. The white phosphorus on the paper burned quickly, fell to the ground, and with a loud bang, a ‘fire dragon’ roared onto the ground!
“Huigen, Qiangzi, Zhao Hong, come back!” Controlling the ‘Fire Dragon’ is mentally exhausting, but they must evacuate quickly before that!
Hearing this, Huigen and Qiangzi dragged Zhao Hong and quickly ran towards the formation. Behind them was a group of living dead!
Zhao Hong was already injured and unable to stand, but he was still fighting. I saw him holding his stomach with one hand, covering it tightly. If I guessed correctly, it was the living dead who had just cut open his abdomen and let his intestines spill out!
“Hurry!” I yelled!
Huigener gritted his teeth, picked up Zhao Hong on his back, and ran towards us, while Qiangzi ran closely behind Huigener!
“The art of fire-making, I never thought I would see it in my lifetime!” Yuan Yi’s eyes opened wide, and there was a hint of melancholy in his eyes.
“The real art of fire-making. I understand why you had to be the one on this mission.” Xiaobei couldn’t help but say.
“Your progress is amazing.” This is what Gao Ning said to me.
“Shut up, can’t you see he’s having a hard time controlling it? But damn it, how could there be a fire-starting technique…” Lao Hui couldn’t help but sigh!
I didn’t care about these compliments at all. In fact, this wasn’t real fire-starting, it was just a trick. Besides, I had used it once at the ghost market! My thoughts were now on Huigen and the other two.
This is definitely a speed crazier than the 100-meter race. Hui Gen’er yelled all the way, finally carrying Zhao Hong behind us, and Qiangzi also followed closely. My heart finally relaxed. At this time, the group of living dead was less than 10 meters away from us. What are we waiting for?
I controlled the fire dragon and rushed over recklessly and wildly, immediately wrapping the first living dead that rushed over. Then the fire dragon, like an angry roar, meandered and wound around many living dead, quickly spreading throughout the warehouse full of cotton!
This fire is different from ordinary fire. Ordinary fire can also be used against zombies and the like, but the effect is really ordinary. Sometimes it doesn’t even burn on the zombies. But this is the heavenly fire that the Taoists have summoned. It was originally used to purify negative and evil forces, and its effect is only less than that of thunder and punishment! However, there are too many restrictions on summoning thunder, and the area of 鈥嬧€媖illing power is not as good as heavenly fire. Moreover, heavenly fire also restrains zombies. In this case, I must choose the art of summoning fire!
The fire burned fiercely, and the entire warehouse was filled with the screams of the living dead. The battle was over, and I didn’t have to control the fire anymore, because fire is unrestrained. Once it spreads, who can control it? This is the nature of fire, passionate and unrestrained!
But at the same time, thick smoke was rolling in, and we all started coughing!
Laohui stood up, shrugged his shoulders and said, “This is a big problem. We came here to investigate, but in the end we set fire to someone else’s warehouse!” As he spoke, a fire-like living dead man pounced on Laohui, who kicked him away!
Over there, Qiangzi told Zhao Hong to endure, stuffed his intestines back into his stomach, and then tied them tightly with a torn piece of clothing… and Xiaobei had already opened the door that Zhao Hong had destroyed with an electronic lock!
“Hurry, get out! If we let one of those monsters out, tomorrow’s news headlines will be a piece of cake. It will be a national sensation, and even the department will have a hard time suppressing it!” Xiao Bei roared!
We held each other up and rushed to the door, kicking the struggling firemen out of the way every now and then!
At this point, a deep sense of exhaustion washed over me, but we still had to get out!
Fortunately, we had always been close to the door, only about ten steps away. We ran in a flurry, but soon reached the door. None of the living dead followed us, and we had plenty of time to get out.
“Heh heh heh… heh heh heh… there’s a fire… it’s so much fun to burn people…”
Suddenly, a child’s voice came from the warehouse. My face turned pale, and goose bumps rose all over my body in such a hot environment.
Not only me, even the old man who was always calm and was being held by me, began to tremble!
Everyone, except Zhao Hong, was stunned like they had been struck by lightning. I felt bitter in my heart. How could we fight like this? I had just swallowed a pill, and if I remembered correctly, the effect was about to wear off!
“Heh heh heh… it’s so much fun…” accompanied by the sound of a childish, innocent voice and the sound of applause!
At this point, even Zhao Hong’s face changed, and he asked in a low voice, “Little ghost?”
Xiao Bei nodded solemnly, and after a two-second pause, I finally regained my senses. I saw a living dead person struggling to get close to us, and I roared, “Let’s talk outside!”
After that, I pulled Hui Gen out of the door first!
“You want to go out… then I’ll go out first… 5555, I’ve been left alone again, alone!” At this moment, the innocent and childish voice suddenly became desolate, and in the end it turned into a monster-like hoarse and hideous voice. This voice made my heart instinctively tighten. Before I had time to feel anything, I felt as if a large gust of wind was whistling past…
When the wind passed by, it felt like a knife cutting across my face and body. It was the manifestation of the evil spirit almost becoming a solid entity. But this was not enough to describe it. It was absolutely not enough to describe it. It was a feeling of hopelessness and suffocation, a feeling of being unable to resist, as if the world was coming to an end!
I shivered. In the middle of summer, I shivered like this… Was it a ghost? Did it pass by me? What would happen next? Would we die?
I couldn’t help but think about this, and suddenly I felt scared. I wasn’t afraid of death, but I had too many concerns in my heart!
Then I felt someone pull me from the left side of my body. It was Lao Hui who pulled me out of the warehouse and slammed the door shut. It was only after the sound of the door slamming shut that I finally woke up!
I saw that everyone had fallen to the ground in a mess, and behind me in the warehouse, I heard the sound of glass cracking and shattering from the heat.
Outside the warehouse was an unusually luxurious limousine. A figure stood in front of the limousine. I couldn’t see clearly in the dark, but I could feel his eyes staring at us coldly.
If I must die, I walked forward two steps, and as I walked, I smiled. The smile grew bigger and bigger, and I yelled, “Brothers, stand up! We’ll die standing up, no matter what!”
The tiger spirit roared fiercely in my soul. I had already given up.
“Master, I’m sorry, I can’t come to see you again.”
“Mom, Dad, Sis, I don’t have time to write on the wall this time.”
“Qinhuai, crispy pork, goodbye…”
“Ru Yue, goodbye…”
“Ru Xue…”
Every step I took, I was saying goodbye in my heart. When I got to Ru Xue, I was speechless. If I died, I think in the future, she would be the thing I regret the most… But, is there a future?
Forgive me for being so resolute at this moment. I was not mistaken. On the shoulders of the man who was looking at me coldly was a child with black eyes and a cruel, twisted smile. The little devil… It stared at us coldly with the man.
Behind me, I heard footsteps. Everyone stood up. Huigen came to my side, and so did Qiangzi. I opened my arms and embraced them, whispering in their ears, “I will do my best to delay him. You run, take everyone with you, and run as fast as you can. I can’t let my brother die.”
Qiangzi choked up, and Huigen just shed tears in an instant.
At that moment, a piercing motorcycle sound rang in my ears. A voice wearing leather clothing sat astride the motorcycle. At that moment, she took off her helmet…
