Chapter 82: Charm? Demon? Retreat
In fact, our judgment was correct, because the next moment, it really seemed as if a huge figure had broken through the waves, splashing up countless waves of water, splashing down on us!
But the splashes didn’t actually wet our bodies, unlike the collision of two spiritual forces just now, which actually splashed up huge waves. This vividness is just an illusion!
But even so, the feeling of reality is enough to be thrilling. Don’t think that hallucinations can’t kill people. The famous death row experiment years later has already explained everything. Blindfold the prisoner, pretend to make a cut on the prisoner’s hand, and then let the water drip all night, and the prisoner will be scared to death.
This is the power of psychological illusion!
I can still keep my wits about me and feel no sense of the substance of water, but it is because I am standing behind Brother Chengxin!
“Everyone stay inside!” I said in a low voice. Xiao Chengqian and Ji Feng had already pulled everyone into the cabin, closed the cabin, and it looked like they had also set up the jade talisman and activated the protective formation. Relatively speaking, the spiritual illusion combat we faced directly was even more dangerous.
Everyone stayed in the cabin as they were told, their faces were very serious because a deadly pressure was already coming at them. They couldn’t see what was happening, but I could clearly see that the water had turned a bright red, like blood completely swirling in the water, a strange but dangerous color.
I saw the red slowly emerge from the entire surface of the water, and then rise from the water. It turned out that a huge red figure had appeared from the water, wearing a red robe and long, snow-white hair that fell to his calves. But underneath this outfit was a “skull face.” The only difference was that the skull had a pair of lively eyes, with deep black circles around the eyes.
This face is supposedly extremely terrifying, but there is also a strange charm. The red robe that was tightly wrapped around the body was blown by the wind and suddenly spread out, like a blanket. On top of the red robe, there were large patches of pink luck.
“A red-pink skeleton? It’s come to this! What a charm! Is there a demon in the ranks? That’s Brother Bai’s business.” The voice of Brother Chengxin came lazily, and in the face of such a huge image of evil, he was as if there was no pressure.
But I clearly saw that his eyes had turned a deep blue, and the third fox tail finally appeared. As the first two fox tails swayed gently in the wind, a head of black hair also turned white, instantly reaching waist-length!
Of course, this is just an illusion that affects people. If Chengxin had opened his third eye, he would have known that his appearance had not changed at all.
“If the soul can’t be united, then we can only fight it out!” Another lazy voice came from the bow of the boat, where Cheng Xin was standing. When I looked again, Cheng Xin was so handsome that he was almost inhuman. Foxes are indeed a kind of beautiful animal.
It is no wonder that foxes are hermaphrodites, because whether male or female, once they become fox spirits, they are the ones who turn the world upside down!
I looked at the so-called red powder skeleton in the sky and sighed to myself. I only got one message, that is, the soul cannot be combined yet. The current state of Brother Chengxin can only be asked after he has sobered up!
However, the ghosts and demons? I can probably understand some things in this lake of ghosts. It is indeed very complicated! The formation of the ghost Rakshasa may be inevitable!
The road ahead is more dangerous than I thought, but I have a bottom line in my heart. I don’t have the same uneasiness as I did at first. On the contrary, I have a strange sense of peace in my heart. Human fear comes from the unknown. As long as you know, what is there to be afraid of?
Chengyuan came out of the cabin and stood next to me, watching the fully formed red and pink skeleton in the sky with me. At this moment, it began to dance in a strange and light manner, as if dancing a primitive and seductive dance. Large patches of pink mist floated out of its body, filling the entire sky.
“The pink sky actually looks very beautiful,” Cheng Yuan suddenly whispered in my ear. At this moment, I noticed that Cheng Yuan had already come out and immediately looked at her reproachfully.
Chengyuan stuck out her tongue at me and whispered, “If you can’t do it, let me help you. I think I can merge my soul, even though it’s just the beginning!”
“You can merge your soul?” I raised my eyebrows in disbelief. I have been on the path of merging my soul for thirty years. Although the soul of the stupid tiger is the most severely damaged, it is almost gone, but Chengyuan…
“The spirit of the dragon has been worshipped by our Yuan family for many generations. This is understandable. I…” Cheng Yuan whispered to me, but at this moment, a powerful spiritual force erupted, instantly making Cheng Yuan and I take two steps back and interrupting our conversation.
The illusion on Chengxin’s body completely disappeared, and he returned to his normal state. He suddenly closed his eyes and sat cross-legged at the bow of the boat. Behind him, I saw the long-lost young fox again!
It was not the same little fox that could sit on a person’s shoulder, but an elegant, lazy, huge little fox that appeared behind Cheng Xin Ge with three tails wagging!
As its tail gently swayed, a whirlwind with a light blue color suddenly blew over the lake, and the pink mist was swept away!
“Heh heh heh, three-tailed fox… I knew it…” The huge red figure in the sky suddenly spoke, with an indescribably charming voice.
The young fox did not speak, but half-opened its pair of green eyes and silently looked at the red and pink skeleton!
Chengxin, who was sitting on the bow of the boat, said inexplicably, “It turns out that the body of a ghost Rakshasa is this. Poor thing, it has turned into a red powder skeleton, trying to confuse the living! In fact, it is a poor woman who is in love. Is it true that the more you lack, the more you want to have?
The young fox was originally the symbiotic soul of Brother Chengxin, and what Brother Chengxin said at this time must have represented the young fox’s words. Or perhaps the young fox’s soul had not yet recovered to the point where it could clearly convey its will, and could only use Brother Chengxin’s mouth to convey its own meaning.
I suddenly felt a cold sweat all over my head. How did the young fox know about the past and present lives of the ghost Rakshasa? The spiritual power that directly points to the heart is really terrifying, but I also secretly made up my mind not to quarrel with the fox. People can speak without a dirty word, and even speak with pity to poke at the most painful place in your heart. This is really…
“Roar…” It was clear that the ghost Rakshasa was greatly irritated by the tender fox, and he was on the verge of a violent rage. His long white hair began to sway wildly!
The young fox no longer looked lazy, and suddenly stood up, arching its back and standing on its three tails. A battle was about to break out!
But at this moment, from the depths of the seemingly very distant lake came a roar full of vicissitudes and evil, distant but clear, shaking even my heart!
At that moment, I felt that the stupid tiger suddenly woke up and roared in the depths of my soul! It seemed to be dissatisfied with something, and it was also full of a strong fighting spirit!
Is it a demon? Is there a ghost? If there is! I understand why we must come to the Lake of a Thousand Ghosts!
My eyes also drifted to the distance from which the sound came. Shatu was unyielding, and how could I, who lived with him, yield? Even though I felt my heart churning and had the urge to cover my ears and avoid the roar, I still stood straight!
The roar only lasted for less than ten seconds before it stopped, and the huge ghost Rakshasa in the sky suddenly disappeared, returning to its normal state!
Faced with the sudden retreat of the ghostly demon, the young fox was full of doubts and returned to the size of a normal fox, standing on the shoulder of Brother Chengxin and shaking its tail!
At that moment, I seemed to suddenly understand the ghost’s hesitation, as if I had grasped something, and then I walked forward to the front of Brother Chengxin, stood at the bow of the boat and said to the ghost, “Yucuizi, don’t tangle with us here. You are afraid of being controlled by others, so you’d better hurry up and get on with your business! One day, we will fight, and that day will not be too far away.”
I was a little nervous when I said these words, because at that moment I received a vague idea, to the effect that Brother Bai, I was only barely able to hold off the demon, and if I really had to fight, I was afraid I wouldn’t be its match, especially now that I was injured.
I don’t know if these words were meant for me, but the next moment, the silly tiger in the depths of my soul growled a few times, as if to comfort me!
Brother Bai is this guy, right? Thinking about it, I and Brother Chengxin are really helpless. One has become a fox man, and the other has become Brother Bai or something!
Although my thoughts were complicated, I faced the ghost Rakshasa with a fearless and calm look, and said to it, “Do you want to fight a big battle now? Come on, we will all fight!”
The young fox cooperated and stood up again, floating into the sky. My silly tiger suddenly began to roar, and I even took out the string of fragrant beads…
The ghost roared with laughter, then shook off the red robe and whispered, “Every man is a promise, and every promise is damned! You will die!”
After saying that, it actually retreated, leaving me at the bow of the boat to sigh in relief. I silently prayed in my heart, “Master Zheng, you must hold on!”
