Chapter 643: The Scent of Sophora japonica
The red light is dead.
Those who were holding wooden sticks and had dull expressions also stopped moving.
Two streams of green smoke floated out of the broken lantern and landed on two of the porters. The two men's faces seemed to come alive all of a sudden. They moved slowly, as if they were trying to escape from something.
But Wu Xian didn't go to look at them, so after the red light disappeared, Han Yu, who was suspended in the air, also fell down and landed hard on his butt.
She stood up, holding her lower back, her expression blank and helpless.
So Wu Xian slapped him hard.
Han Yu's dazed expression suddenly cleared up. She was more terrified by what had just happened than her face was numb from the pain.
"I, I... Just now, the red light suddenly became very bright, and I felt like I was frozen in place, my mind went blank, and I completely forgot to resist."
"Afterwards, it felt like something was being sucked out of my body. The feeling was both comfortable and terrifying, like squeezing an abscess. More and more was coming out, but my body was becoming emptier and emptier."
"Later, my consciousness drifted towards the red lantern. My thinking became slower and slower, and I saw double vision. But luckily, I drifted very slowly, and you woke me up before I could even get into the lantern...
After listening to Han Yu's narration, Wu Xian also felt a little scared.
This red-light-head's physical ability is not very strong, and his movements are so slow that he is lagging behind even in the ghost game. If he is placed in the "sad and mysterious school", he will be killed by the ghost soldiers.
But Red Light Head's ability mechanism is too powerful. It has both group control and the ability to lock on and kill a single person. If a follower fights Red Light Head alone, there is almost no chance of survival!
In addition, in Han Yu's description, the fact that consciousness is about to be sucked away is also a key point. Those porters and diggers with numb expressions may have had something sucked away by the red light, so they became puppets who only know how to work!
Then Wu Xian looked at the others.
Guo Xiake was in good condition because he was hiding far away. The spell he just used was the "Ice Flower Spell", which simply released a stream of cold air to attack the enemy.
Wang Jiudan was covering his ears and leaning against the wall, barely able to stand.
As for Miao Ling, the feminine man who ran away at the beginning, he did not come back for a long time and no one knew where he had gone. It might be that he found the red light too strange, so he abandoned everyone and ran away.
Wu Xian didn't feel angry about this. It was normal for ordinary people to run away as soon as they encountered a red light. There was nothing wrong with that.
But the environment of the blessed land was extremely unfriendly to newcomers who were left alone. Even if he was left alone when he ran, he might have died in some deserted corner by now.
Then Wu Xian began to search Hong Dengtou's body. In the end, the only useful things he found were the gong and the gong hammer, as well as two intact candles in the lantern.
Wu Xian first tried to strike the gong and found that the sound was clear and normal. He then checked the certificate of ordination and confirmed that the gong was a normal gong. What made everyone dizzy was the ability of Red Lantern Head.
Then he looked at the two tall candles, which were only as thick as pencils and emitted a strange fragrance.
This is what is written in the certificate of ordination.
Huaiying wax incense: a unique wax incense that is made by combining candles and incense sticks through a special process. It can be used to worship gods and to ward off evil spirits, and its fragrance can soothe the soul.
Wu Xian's eyes lit up. This was the special incense of this blessed land.
There were only two candlesticks, so Wu Xian and Guo Xiake each took one. Han Yu was immobilized by the evil spirit at the beginning, so he only took the bronze gong. If the bronze gong was modified, it could be used as a shield...
After this incident, Wu Xian no longer planned to continue exploring, so he took three other people with him to search for supplies here.
The Red Lantern Team came to deliver supplies, so all the supplies were packed for easy carrying. Wu Xian and the other two quickly found what they needed, which were three pottery jars of water, a bundle of wood, a bundle of plant roots, and a large piece of meat whose source was unknown.
Snap, snap, snap…
Just then, hurried footsteps suddenly sounded in the darkness.
The sound of footsteps made the four people nervous again, but when the owner of the footsteps appeared in front of Wu Xian, Wu Xian felt speechless.
I saw four dishevelled people running towards me from where they came from. Even though they were naked, their movements were still swift and agile...
These are the four people at the entrance of the crack!
They were also summoned by the sound of the gong, so they ran towards the dark tunnel. However, in order to make torches, Wu Xian stripped them of their clothes and only left two female diggers with two pieces of clothing to cover themselves, which led to this crazy run that made it difficult to control one's expression.
But when Wu Xian looked in the direction the four men were running, he saw a faint flash of red light in the darkness!
He immediately approached carefully, and after turning a corner, he saw five huge red lanterns slowly approaching!
There are five more red lights!
Just one red light is difficult to deal with, let alone five?
Perhaps because they were disturbed by the four excavators, the light from the five red light bulbs suddenly gathered together and shone towards Wu Xian. Wu Xian immediately lay on the ground to avoid being covered by the red light. Then he crawled back and retreated out of the range of the red light. Then he nervously said to the other three:
"Run!"
The four of them were holding torches and running away. If they were caught by the traffic police, they might be sucked dry and become puppets.
After running for a while.
Everyone stopped and carefully observed the situation behind them, and only breathed a sigh of relief when they confirmed that the red-light vehicles were not chasing them.
It seems that those red light heads have their own range of movement and will not leave their duty posts just because of a dead red light head.
"Woo...Woo..."
But just as everyone felt relieved, they heard a mournful cry coming from behind them. The cry was neither male nor female, and it gave people goose bumps.
Wu Xian hurriedly turned the torch around and found that the crying sound came from Miao Ling who had just disappeared.
Miao Ling also noticed everyone, and quickly raised his head, rushing over with snot and tears: "You are all okay, this is so great, I thought I was going to die, it's pitch black here and I can't see anything, I thought I was going to die!"
But the three family members all took a step back.
This is not because he dislikes Miao Ling, but because he is worried that there are some hidden dangers in him.
A newcomer who has stayed in a dangerous paradise for so long is likely to have been possessed by something and has physical or mental problems.
Guo Xiake's eyes were full of contempt. It's understandable that I cry a little when I'm so unlucky, but how dare you cry more miserably than me?
But Wang Jiudan did not retreat. Instead, he helped Miao Ling up, and comforted and encouraged him in a soft voice, making Miao Ling feel warm on his back.
Wu Xian couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth...
It seems that the PUA he and Jiang Huaian used on Wang Jiudan before the group exploration really worked.
