Chapter 18
Everyone looked over.
Zhuang Ming stepped forward slowly. After staring at it for a while, his face became gloomy: "It's a mark belonging to human beings."
Through these palm prints, he seems to be able to see the appearance of countless people before they died: there are powerful enemies at both ends of the passage, they can't escape, they can't escape, they can only run to this recessed place to hide temporarily, and then desperately repeat Slapping the stone wall, leaving bright red palm prints here.
【Horror story visual sense】
[Goosebumps are already all over my body, help me, why do you want to close-up the bloody handprints, cut the shot quickly]
[I'm a little curious, why did they slap the stone wall?It's better to unite and rush forward in one direction, maybe we will rush out】
【Who knows what happened at that time】
Shen Xiaoxiao said: "Didn't it mean that the local villagers came out alive, but they just lost their memory?"
Feng Shaoqin snorted and said, "If they told the truth, I'm afraid they might not be able to find twelve guests. Besides, the Shadow Mountain is so remote, the program team may not know whether any local villagers disappeared in this cave. Clearly."
Xu Shan frowned when he heard the words: "The program team shouldn't do such a thing, right?"
Fang Xiao said: "The blood doesn't seem to have completely dried up. Even though the Shadow Caves are special, their owners won't take too long to die. But look here, there are so many bloody handprints, but there is no smell of blood in the air. It's not very Is it strange?"
"indeed so."
"But along the way, we didn't find any corpses, or even any traces."
"If someone came here not long ago, even if the whole person was eaten, there would be traces left behind, right?"
"Is there a possibility?"
Ji Xiao joined the discussion: "Aren't these bloody handprints human blood?"
"Not human?"
Xu Shan wondered, "What else could it be?"
Feng Shaoqin snorted and said, "It's really nonsense. What other creatures can leave such a mark besides humans? Could it be that the apes entered here?"
"You can't say that these palm prints are left by ghost grudges."
Those who were waiting to see Ji Xiao's jokes in the live broadcast room also took the opportunity to ridicule after Feng Shaoqin finished speaking.
【Pretentious failure】
[What kind of breath of life was used by mistake just now to look awesome, I really thought I stood out from the crowd]
[The palm prints of apes are different from those of humans.Besides, even if it is the same, why is it said that it is an ape and not a human?】
[Look at Fang Xiao, he is calm and calm in his teens, able to fight and analyze.Look at Ji Xiao again, you will know that it is unconventional]
【Fang Xiao is really a hero out of a boy】
To their surprise, Fang Xiao said at the next moment, "Mr. Ji probably didn't mean that."
He stepped forward and stretched out his hand to twist it, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed carefully: "I can't smell anything like this..."
So he looked at Ji Xiao: "Isn't it blood?"
"Spirit."
Ji Xiao said: "It belongs to the spirit of a monk."
Zhuang Ming was taken aback.
Although he also felt that this young man was not an ordinary person, he still hesitated and asked: "Can the spirit and energy be transformed into a form and separated from the human body?"
It is unheard of for him to live to this age.
This situation is indeed rare.
So when Ji Xiao saw the bloody handprints on the stone wall, he didn't think in that direction immediately.
Absorbing the monk's spirit, related to it, is the most reminiscent of only one creature: the phantom butterfly.
Ji Xiao thought in his heart: If there are phantom butterflies in the Shadow Cave, it would be a worthwhile trip.
This means that there must be passive magic energy nearby.
For Ji Xiao, the conversion efficiency of absorbing the power of other monsters is only one in ten.But if it is passive magic energy, then it can be close to 100% conversion.
Just don't know how many there are.
Fang Xiao recalled: "I remember reading in an ancient book: There is a butterfly in the Western Mountains, named Yingdie, who feeds on the spirit and spirit of monks."
"Shadow Butterfly's strongest method is to create illusions. For the next part of the journey, everyone will silently recite your heartbeat."
"Clear heart sound?"
Xu Shan quickly shouted: "I don't know how to do it."
Fang Xiao recited it aloud and read it to him.
When he was halfway through reading, there was a faint rustling sound in everyone's ears.
"Here they come."
Fang Xiao saw Xu Shan's right hand burst into flames, and said with a serious face, "Stop!"
"This kind of monster can ignore all damage when it is in a defensive state, but can absorb energy. Only when they create an illusion, the attack at this time can be effective."
The invisible field gradually enveloped everyone.
Zhuang Ming and Feng Shaoqin sat down on the same spot at the same time, silently reciting the clear heart sounds.
Fang Xiao hesitated for a moment, then quickly took out a bell from his sleeve and threw it to Xu Shan.Then, he grabbed Shen Xiaoxiao's wrist with his right hand, twisted his middle finger and thumb with his left hand, and muttered something.
Shen Xiaoxiao was startled: "Huh?"
【Damn it, this kid has a future】
【This girl is really pretty】
[She is good-looking, but she feels like she doesn't know anything, so I don't know how she was selected.This face is not enough to be a pure vase】
[Although this Fang Xiao is young, he is really responsible, he is a qualified captain]
Seeing this, Ji Xiao smiled slightly.
He also closed his eyes, but he didn't recite any pure heart sounds, and quietly waited for the illusion to come to his side.
"Crack-"
When the illusion wrapped Ji Xiao's whole body, Ji Xiao didn't even make a move, and several invisible threads snapped in the darkness.Even the butterflies that released these phantom threads also lowered their wings.
"As phantom butterflies, you are so fragile."
Ji Xiao chuckled, and did not rush to attack the other butterflies, but followed them to find the location of the passive magic energy.
[Is there an illusion already?Why did the camera become foggy]
[Only defense like this?If you don’t attack, it’s impossible to destroy the enemy, right?]
[someone moved]
【It's Xu Shan who stood up!Is he going to use fire to burn the butterflies?According to Fang Xiao, the attack can be useful now]
[Fuck, what is he doing]
In the camera of the live broadcast room, Xu Shan's eyes were slightly closed, and his body moved slowly and stiffly, coming to the side of the stone wall.
He pressed his hands on the stone wall and crawled down.When he reached a certain point, his whole body seemed to be stuck to the stone wall, lying on the stone wall in a strange posture.
Xu Shan, who was immersed in the illusion, gradually became distorted.
【This is how the bloody handprint came about...】
[Is Xu Shan dying?Didn't Fang Xiao give him a magic weapon just now?Why doesn't it work?】
【Ah ah ah I dare not look at it】
[Can the footage of people being slowly killed be broadcast on the platform?Why do I feel like I’m looking at the dark web]
Shen's villa.
Shen Ziqiu stared at the screen with a strange expression.
He has been watching the program since "The Unusual They" started broadcasting at noon, and his doubts are getting deeper and deeper.
Shen Ziqiu originally thought that the Bermuda and Shennongjia mentioned by the program group on Weibo was purely a gimmick.In fact, it is just to explore a few famous haunted houses, or let the guests perform some skills, such as the person who can control the fire is very suitable.
In this way, the audience will have fun watching the show, and it will not end badly in the end-these things can always be explained by science.
But now, these guests not only went to a place full of dangers, but also broadcast everything they encountered in the Shadow Cave in the live broadcast room, and the host never appeared, and did not try to guide the audience Let's think about "science".
What is the program group doing?
Shen Ziqiu knew that there was a backer behind it when he came into contact with "The Unusual Them" before, but he did not expect that such a big backer would allow such a program to pass the censorship and be broadcast live publicly.
In the cave, Ji Xiao finally found a place.
In the center of the cave, a little further down.
He opened his eyes and immediately noticed Xu Shan's strangeness.So he walked over and reached out to pat the other person on the shoulder.
Ji Xiao was immediately pulled into the illusion that Xu Shan was in.In the next second, the illusion burst, the thread of the illusion broke, and the butterflies that created the illusion suffered backlash and died one after another.
Xu Shan opened his eyes in a daze, and when he saw Ji Xiao, he murmured: "I just had a nightmare, my palm hurts... Did you save me?"
Seeing his delirious appearance, Ji Xiao said, "Sit down and have a rest."
[?Did Ji Xiao pat Xu Shan and Xu Shan woke up?I am not wrong, right】
【It seems like this...why】
[After it was over, I thought of Ji Xiao's "threat" at the beginning of the live broadcast, and I will never dare to scold him again]
[Is this Xu Shan bought by Ji Xiao? Just taking a picture can make people wake up from the illusion. The eminent monks of Guangyuan Temple are not so good.]
【Could it be that Ji Xiao is really a fairy doge】
Not far away, Fang Xiao let go, opened his eyes and looked at Shen Xiaoxiao beside him.The boy's face was filled with disbelief: "You..."
The two of them entered the illusion together, and the illusion they faced should be even stronger.But even though he fell into the illusion just now, he didn't bear any attack from the illusion at all, so that he was able to break through and leave soon.
It is absolutely impossible for Yingdie to be so harmless, as you can tell by looking at the bloody handprints on the stone wall.The only change can only be the girl beside her.
Shen Xiaoxiao looked back at him suspiciously.
"It's nothing."
Fang Xiao's face flushed slightly when he met the other's gaze. This was the first time he met a girl's eyes.
Fang Xiao tilted his head and stood up.He found that Zhuang Ming and Feng Shaoqin were the only teammates still trapped in the illusion.
"There is no danger to life at the moment."
He briefly checked the two teammates, then looked at Ji Xiao and said, "Now is the time when the shadow butterflies are weak, let's go find their hiding places."
"I'm not going."
Ji Xiao said lightly: "If they are in danger, it's better to stay here and take care of them."
Fang Xiao nodded: "Alright."
He clenched his dagger tightly and walked into the darkness alone.
Outside the Shadow Cave.
After the host Shao Yu left the sight of the staff, he turned his head and glanced lightly. After confirming that there was no one there, his steps suddenly appeared like a ghost, and he appeared tens of meters away.
He took out his cell phone and dialed a number.
"Fang Xiao has a good foundation since he was a child, and his talent is also good. It's just that his uncle Fang Jue is the elder of the Luoyun Dojo, and he is related to the Qingfeng Sect of the Setting Sun. I'm afraid he is not suitable for inhaling the organization."
"Shen Xiaoxiao not only has the eyes of the sky, but also has an affinity for ghosts and grudges. She is an unusual girl."
"Zuo Lan is suspected to be a member of the cultivation sect. I don't know the sect and intentions behind it. If you want to take control, please ask for instructions."
"Ji Xiao... the one-hundred-headed black-faced ghost was killed by him, and the illusion of Yingdie has no effect on him at all. I can't see the depth of this person for the time being. Apart from the core of the Shadow Cave, I am afraid there is nothing that can threatened him."
The author says:
Ji Xiao: The core land can only be my nourishment, thank you
