In the unknown supernatural passage.
A strange figure was moving forward non-stop at this moment.
He looked so ordinary, his eyes were dull, and there was no expression on his face at all, as if he was born without joy, anger, sorrow, or joy.
It is worth mentioning that.
The environment in the passage is very dark, it is an extreme black, you can't see your fingers, as if even the light can be swallowed up, giving people a very depressing feeling.
But even so.
The body around the strange figure seemed extremely bright, and a red light illuminated the surroundings, dispelling the darkness in the passage.
I saw that the figure was holding a red lantern in his hand, and the red light that dispelled the darkness came from the lantern in his hand.
And there is a black word "death" printed on the red lantern, which is very strange.
besides.
There is also a string of bells hanging at the bottom of the red lantern. As the strange figure moves around, the string of bells is also swinging back and forth, making a "dinging bell" swinging sound from time to time.
"Um?"
Suddenly.
There was a trace of surprise on the originally calm face of the strange figure, and then he turned his head and looked in a direction behind him.
Following the movements of the strange figure, the red ghostly light surged like a tide towards the direction the strange figure was looking at. The dark environment in the passage was continuously illuminated, and everything along the way was infected.
red.
at the same time.
A terrifying-looking figure appeared in the area shrouded in red light.
It was an old man wearing a gray retro gown and a skinny figure.
The old man's exposed skin was brown, densely covered with corpse spots, and the old man's eyes were very terrifying. They were full of dead gray, cold, and hollow, without any look that a living person should have, with a kind of horror.
of dead silence.
That was not a person, but a fierce ghost!
The moment the strange figure holding the red lantern fixed his gaze on the skinny old man, several wounds appeared on the old man's body out of thin air, directly breaking the old man's body into several parts.
"thump!"
The dismembered old man fell directly to the ground in the passage, making a dull landing sound, as if something heavy had fallen to the ground.
Seeing this scene, a hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the strange figure holding a red lantern.
He did not expect that the "Ghost Controller" in the previous room would choose to continue to trigger the hatchet's supernatural power and attack the skinny old man.
The strange figure's name is Zhao Li, a ghost controller who has been alive for decades. In his time, he had a very resounding nickname.
The seducer!
As the saying goes, "If the King of Hell wants you to die at the third watch, who can keep you alive until the fifth watch?" This sentence could be said to be the motto of "The Soul Seducer" back then.
In fact, Zhao Li is different from other ghost masters. In a sense, he is just an ordinary person and does not control ghosts in a real sense.
Moreover, the so-called "Educator of Souls" actually does not refer to a certain person, but to the "Zhao Family" where Zhao Li lives.
Whoever can control the red lantern in Zhao Li's hand will be the new generation head of the Zhao family, and will automatically inherit the title of "Educator"!
All of Zhao Li's abilities come from the red lantern in his hand.
It was an extremely powerful supernatural weapon. Not only was it very powerful, but there was no need to worry about the risk of the evil ghost resurrecting.
Yes, that red lantern will not have any impact on the "Zhao family", and the supernatural power of the lantern will not corrode the bodies of the "Zhao family".
In other words.
That is a supernatural item with no side effects, and it is also the kind of weapon that once possessed, can directly rank among the top ghost masters.
Of course, the premise is that the person who obtains the red lantern has the blood of the "Zhao family", otherwise using the supernatural power of the lantern will be similar to using other supernatural items.
Not only will there be a risk of losing control, but a lot of costs may be paid.
………………
And the red lantern itself is indeed powerful.
Not only does it have a high-level ghost realm that can affect the real world, but the ringing sound emitted by the string of bells at the bottom of the lantern is also an extremely terrifying curse. In addition to suppressing the ghosts, it can also affect the time around itself.
Once the bell rings, as long as it is within the range covered by the sound, all space and time are determined by Zhao Li. He can separate the time within an hour in an area.
Moreover, the sound of the bell can not only affect the time in an area and suppress other ghosts, but can also control suppressed ghosts through the sound of the bell.
That was the case with the skinny old man. The reason why the old man followed Zhao Li was because he was controlled by the sound of the bell.
besides.
The red lantern also has a more terrifying supernatural curse, and it is also a mortal curse.
It's the black word "death" engraved on the lantern.
If Zhao Li is willing, he can completely rely on the supernatural curse with the black word "death" to kill any ghost controller. Even a real evil ghost can directly suppress it to death.
At the same time, while suppressing other ghosts, the red lantern can also steal part of the supernatural power from those suppressed ghosts to increase its own terror.
This is the main reason why every generation of the "Zhao family" head is called "the soul seducer".
After all, you can't hit, and once the bell rings, even if you are not suppressed, you will be trapped in a chaotic time. Without the ability to restart for an hour, it is almost impossible to escape.
By then, if you are trapped and the curse with the word "death" on the lantern breaks out, no one will be sure to survive. Even the most terrifying ghosts will be imprisoned.
"Is there any way he can get the evil ghost out from here?"
Looking at the skinny old man whose body was dismembered into several parts on the ground, Zhao Li secretly guessed in his heart. At the same time, he was wondering if he would also trigger the curse of the hatchet to attack the old man if it were him.
Just before, Zhao Li had recognized the supernatural weapon in Su Mubai's hand. To be precise, he had recognized part of the weapon.
As a "ghost controller" who has survived for decades, Zhao Li naturally recognizes the rusty hatchet and is very clear about the hatchet's capabilities and side effects.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have "erased" all traces of himself in the room.
Time passes minute by minute.
Under Zhao Li's gaze, the skinny old man on the ground began to gradually recover. The dismembered corpses were gathering at a speed visible to the naked eye. The influence of the hatchet curse began to slowly disappear, and the old man's supernatural power was recovering.
.
There is no doubt about it.
The skinny old man was a fierce ghost, and precisely because of this, the curse of the hatchet could only dismember its body, but could not kill it.
After all, ghosts cannot be killed!
"Did the person in the room give up and continue the attack? In that case, what's the point of wielding these knives?"
By the time the skinny old man's body had completely recovered, no new changes had occurred, so Zhao Li seemed even more puzzled.
Could it be possible that the man dismembered the skinny old man's body just to warn himself?
Zhao Li thought that he had used the supernatural power of the red lantern in that room to suppress Su Mubai's supernatural powers, so he wondered whether Su Mubai was using this situation to warn him.
But after thinking about it carefully, I thought it was impossible.
After all, this behavior is meaningless!
After thinking for a moment, Zhao Li, who really didn't understand the meaning of Su Mubai's actions, shook his head slightly. After sorting out the messy thoughts in his mind, he turned around and continued walking towards the other end of the passage, wanting to leave here.
This passage is one of Zhao Li's back-ups, so that he can evacuate as soon as possible after something beyond his control occurs.
Behind him, the thin old man also started to take steps, followed Zhao Li, and moved forward along the passage.
It is worth mentioning that in Zhao Li's mind, he directly recognized Su Mubai as a ghost controller, and an outlier among ghost controllers.
After surviving for so many years, Zhao Li has seen too many ghost masters, changing batch after batch, including some aliens who have successfully taken over the bodies of ghosts.
Not to mention anything else, Zhao Li knew that there were no less than two fingers of aliens still living in the world, and some of them were even in their mother's womb, and had already mastered evil ghosts before they were born.
Therefore, in Zhao Li's view, Su Mubai is a person who has successfully replaced the identity of Li Gui, and is also an out-and-out alien.
And in that room before, Su Mubai gave Zhao Li a very strong sense of oppression, which was one of the reasons why Zhao Li finally chose to retreat.
Besides this, there is another reason.
That's what happened in the room.
Just as Su Mubai thought, the abandoned village was actually a whole, and the dangers inside were far beyond ordinary people's imagination.
Even Zhao Li would arrange his back-ups in advance before entering, such as the passage he is walking through now, in order to avoid accidents.
at the same time.
The other side.
In the innermost room on the second floor of an old-fashioned building.
