Chapter 648: Stairs Covered in Smoke
The red beam of light shot out and froze Han Yu in mid-air.
Compared to the panic she felt the first time she was frozen, Han Yu was already very familiar with this experience. She even felt as if she was floating in the air when her consciousness left her body.
Before her consciousness was about to be sucked into the red lantern, the quarreling couple Liu Chen and Qu Ying, who had been waiting on the side, worked together to push the porter between Han Yu and the red lantern!
The porter was sitting on the ground, and the tip of his spiky hair was manipulated, entering the range of the red light, so the person who was fixed changed from Han Yu to the porter.
Because only the top of the porter's head is illuminated, the light emitted by the red light head is not lost much and is still as bright as a laser.
Then everyone adjusted the position of the porter, and the route of the red light also shifted along with the porter, eventually shooting into the smoke on the stairs, forming a bright red light path!
The scattered light dyed the slightly golden smoke into the color of sunset.
The porter's spirit is empty and he will not move by himself. The red light head's ability can last for at least half an hour, so as long as no one destroys it, this smoke route will always exist.
After doing all this, everyone waited for a while.
I saw orange-red smoke surging up, and I could vaguely see invisible objects jumping out of the smoke, forming falling tracks at the edge of the smoke.
This means that after the invisible evil spirits guarding the stairs were driven away by the smoke, they all fell to the bottom of the valley due to the abnormal no-fly feature of the No Man's Valley!
This scene made everyone look shocked.
They originally thought that the smoke could at most interfere with the movements of those invisible evil spirits and slow down their attack frequency, so they took great pains to capture Red Lantern.
But looking at the situation now, after the smoke covered the area, all those invisible evil spirits actually jumped off the cliff and committed suicide?
Doesn't this mean that the stairs have become safe?
After a brief hesitation, everyone decided to continue with the original plan, because no one knew how long the thick smoke would last, and in order to avoid any further complications, it would be better to quickly go through the stairs.
So they walked into the smoke one after another in the agreed order.
Speaking of the order of entering the smoke, Wang Jiudan was number one and Wu Xian was number two, which was decided by drawing lots before the action.
As for whether the draw was fair, Wu Xian's evaluation was four words.
Children and old men are not deceived!
……
In order to prevent anyone from getting hurt, everyone was brought into the ditch, so there was a distance between each person and they were not connected by ropes.
Soon, there were only three people left outside.
They are the female companion Lan Xuan, the feminine man Miao Ling and the foolish man Fu Dahai.
Lan Xuan is Huang Yuanjiang's partner. The two have been working together since entering the blessed land, but she is actually not very familiar with Huang Yuanjiang. They only worked together in the last blessed land.
In that blessed land, they faced a kind of evil ghost that could transform into the appearance of the killed person and possess the memory of the killed person!
The evil spirit mingled among them, sowing discord, framing others, and attacking those who were alone, which eventually led to the annihilation of the entire team and only the two of them survived.
The experience in the blessed land left them with psychological trauma, so they still cooperated this time, and at the beginning of the blessed land, they were skeptical about other relatives and newcomers.
After the first person Fan Qingyue went in, Lan Xuan also wanted to follow.
Suddenly, she saw out of the corner of her eye that the edge of the smoke was shaking abnormally again. She couldn't see what was specific, but from the deformation of the smoke, it seemed like something had smashed into the smoke from outside!
This made Lan Xuan's face change suddenly, and she immediately shouted into the smoke.
"Be careful, those invisible evil spirits have gone back to the stairs again!" Miao Ling suddenly broke out in sweat: "How is this possible? Didn't those things just fall down? There's no way to fly or jump in the Valley of the Dead?"
Lan Xuan gnashed her teeth and said, "This is not important. What's important is...what should we do next? Should we go in as well?"
Fu Dahai urged stupidly: "Go over here quickly, people will die if you stay here!"
Lan Xuan glanced at Fu Dahai warily.
Because of the experience in the last blessed land, after this blessed land began, she has been suspicious of many people in the team, including Wang Jiudan, the mysterious Wu Xian and Jiang Huaian.
But what alerted her the most was Fu Dahai. His symptoms were very similar to the transformed evil spirit she encountered in the previous blessed land. If General Huang Yuan had not stopped her, she would have secretly taken action against Dahai to verify it.
It was obvious that there were many evil spirits in the smoke, but Fu Dahai was actually urging her to get into the stairs quickly, which made it difficult for her not to doubt Fu Dahai's motives.
But just this glance at Fu Dahai made Lan Xuan feel a chill down her spine again.
Because in the direction of Fu Dahai, the postures of the five mummy-like statues in the depression of the rock wall were all different from before. Their arms and legs were all moving, as if they were about to crawl out of the depression in the rock wall!
They tried to force their way through the stairs without offering sacrifices, which angered the five statues!
"Hurry up and get up the stairs. It will be too late if you don't leave now!"
Lan Xuan said something hurriedly and stepped onto the stairs. Miao Ling hesitated for a moment and followed Lan Xuan.
Fu Dahai was unaware of the abnormality of the rock wall, and in the end he happily walked into the smoke.
……
After stepping into the smoke.
Wang Jiudan discovered that the smoke was not choking at all, and he could even open his eyes in the smoke.
But the visibility here is very low, and you can only see things within half a meter. If it weren't for the red light path, you would definitely get lost here.
crunch...
He stepped on the wooden board of the stairs, which shook slightly and made a strange noise. This made Wang Jiudan's long face tremble, because under the board was a bottomless abyss!
Are there any hidden traps on the stairs?
Will a sudden strong wind blow him down?
Is there some evil hidden in the smoke?
Even if none of these exist, are these wooden boards strong enough to break suddenly?
All these worries made Wang Jiudan extremely frightened. He prepared himself mentally for every step he took. His movements were as slow as a snail, and he was so timid that you couldn't even tell that he was a bad guy.
Wu Xian saw all this cowardly behavior.
This made Wu Xian even more certain that Wang Jiudan was a useless villain, whose value of use outweighed his threat.
The two walked one in front and one behind for a distance. Suddenly, Wu Xian found that the stairs were shaking. He heard the panicked voices of his relatives and Lan Xuan's reminder from behind!
"Didn't those things fall down?"
After a brief moment of confusion, Wu Xian immediately adjusted his position and took a horse stance. He didn't know from which direction the evil spirit would attack, so this was the safest way to deal with it.
“Ah… roar… ah!”
Then, a creature, with a strange howl, broke through the smoke and rushed over from the side, and two cold big hands grabbed Wu Xian's arms tightly!
