Chapter 288 disappears into thin air (end of this volume!)
"Who won?"
"You ask me? How do I know? After all, someone wins and someone loses."
"Isn't this nonsense!?"
At this time, many people had gathered in front of the main entrance of the ancestral hall. They were crowded with people, their heads blocked, and the water was blocked.
The previous two violent explosions only temporarily suppressed people's curiosity.
As the explosion subsided, curiosity and nervousness began to linger in the hearts of everyone again, driving them to stand at the front.
At this time, the fighting among everyone has become a non-important matter. No one pays attention to it and no one cares about it.
Everyone just stared at the movement inside the door, with their hearts high and beating like a drum.
Thirteen was also standing there, at the front of the crowd.
After experiencing a series of fierce battles and blows, she had reached the limit both mentally and physically. At this moment, she was just holding on with one breath.
"There was still sound before, but now there is no sound?"
"I told you, don't ask me! Do you want to know? Open the door and go in and take a look!"
After he finished speaking, the heavy black door of the ancestral hall actually started to creak.
Apparently someone inside was pushing the door open.
Everyone couldn't help but hold their breath, their eyes widened, and they stared at the slowly exposed gap. Some people could already see the moss on the brick wall of the ancestral hall through the gap.
Gradually, as the door was completely pushed open, everyone saw the figure of the visitor.
The person who walked out was Masahito Yamamoto!
There was a sigh and even a few sobs behind Thirteen. If she hadn't been the leader and had to hold on in front, I'm afraid she would have squatted down by now.
Yamamoto Masahito was covered in blood and his eyes were cold. After looking around at the people present, he crossed the threshold.
Every time he took a step, everyone took a step back like a tide.
Only thirteen, she still stood there with a calm expression, but there was still a touch of loneliness and unexpected sadness hidden under her eyes.
Yamamoto Masahito walked down the steps. At this time, the circle surrounding him had retreated several steps, revealing a vacuum zone.
But he didn't look at Thirteen. Instead, he walked straight to the person in front, grabbed him by the collar, and held him in his hands like a chicken.
"Hey, let me ask you, will a person die if he is chopped down?"
"Huh? I didn't chop you!"
"Tch! I just ask you, will a person die if he is chopped down?"
"Human, if a person is chopped down, of course he will die! If a person is chopped up, he will not die? Whoever says this is taking the wrong medicine!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yamamoto Masahito's head shot up into the sky and his body fell straight back.
When everyone was in a daze, Thirteen was the first to react and ran towards the ancestral hall.
As soon as she entered, she saw only broken bricks and tiles all over the ground, stained with blood, and a black saber lying alone on the ground, broken into two pieces.
Other than that, there's nothing else, it's deserted.
She stood here, silent for a while, and understood everything.
At this time, those bold meddlers had already rushed in, looking left and right.
They surrounded Thirteen and chirped and asked: "Who is the person who killed Yamamoto Masahito? Who is the master?"
"A man who wants to hide it in his heart for the rest of his life if others see it."
After that, no matter how many people asked, Shisan just smiled and said nothing.
……
From the back door of the ancestral hall, after climbing over several brick walls, Yin Xiu arrived at the back alley.
As soon as he stepped on the ground, he felt like he had stepped into a stream, a stream of blood that converged and flooded up to his ankles!
Hei Wu and Lin Hu were seen sitting on the ground, leaning against the wall, smoking in silence.
The heavy Cangzhou gun was placed on the ground, close to Lin Hu's hand. The red tassel on the gun tip was dripping red liquid, as if it had just been soaked in water.
Heiwu's ghost-headed sword had already made large and small cuts, and it was also stained with blood.
And in the alley behind the two of them, there were corpses lying everywhere, including swordsmen and club members, with different forms of death.
When Lin Hu saw Yin Xiu coming over, he couldn't stand up either. He just nodded and nodded at him.
Heiwu simply ignored him and just smoked, drawing circles on the ground with his blood-stained hands, not knowing what he was thinking.
Lin Hu asked: "Done?"
Yin Xiu nodded silently.
"It's a little slow." Heiwu suddenly said.
"Well, it's much more difficult than I thought. That bastard likes to play tricks."
Yin Xiu said and stretched out his hand towards Heiwu, but was slapped away by the latter.
"Are you running out of tricks? Don't waste time on the two of us. He won't be dead for a while, so it won't be a problem. If you have the strength, save it to chase that Smith."
"Have you seen him?"
Lin Hu, who was sitting on the side, took down his cigarette and said to Yin Xiu: "As soon as I saw him grabbing Liu Banxian, I immediately went up to stop him with Heiwu, but that person was really not an ordinary person."
< br>
He raised his hand and showed Yin Xiu the cut on his arm, which was not deep but extremely long.
"He is extremely powerful, but he almost tore off my hand with just one face-to-face encounter. You have to be careful."
Yin Xiu nodded, "That guy is indeed difficult to deal with."
"How sure are you?" Black Friday asked.
Yin Xiu did not answer him immediately, but looked up at the sky. It was already afternoon, and the sun was gradually setting on the other side of the mountain.
"During the day, it's 50%, and at night, it's 30%."
When Hei Wu heard this, he laughed rarely, "I thought you were going to say it was easy to catch!"
"Hey, there's a danger in talking too much."
After saying that, Yin Xiu glanced at the two of them again, and after confirming that they would indeed not die for a while, she nodded to them and ran out in the direction indicated by Lin Hu.
After the two of them watched his figure go away, they fell into silence again.
Until Heiwu picked up another cigarette, lit the original cigarette butt, and threw it to Lin Hu.
"Nanyang's large-leaf cigarettes are different from Kyushu's. Those Western cigarettes are completely inferior. They are boring to smoke. I just don't know, brother, are you used to smoking?"
Lin Hu put the cigarette into his mouth, took a deep breath before exhaling the smoke, frowned and said: "I rarely smoke, so I don't carry a cigarette with me. My master said that smoking hurts the lungs. We all It is better for martial arts practitioners to use less or even no smoking.
To be honest, this cigarette was so spicy that I shed tears. Even when my fiancée died, I had never shed so many tears. ”
Hei Wu's smile froze on his lips for a moment, he raised his eyelids and looked at Lin Hu again, and then said: "Then you are still smoking?"
Lin Hu swallowed another mouthful and leaned his head against the moss-covered brick wall.
This wall is one of the few ancient relics left in this reinforced concrete metropolis.
“I didn’t want to smoke it originally, but somehow, this fight reminded me of many people and things in the past, and I wanted to take a sip even more.
Apprenticeship, martial arts competitions in the provincial capital, fighting with the White Lotus Sect in the north, that rainy night at Xinghua Tower..."
After a pause, Lin Hu scratched his scalp while holding a cigarette, "I am not yet forty this year, but I can't remember many things clearly and have become a bit blurry."
Hei Wu glanced at him and said, "I don't have that many things to talk about, and I never remember that many things. I smoke just to smoke, not for anything else."
Lin Hu said sincerely: "This is quite good, isn't it? There is no worry, so naturally there is no sorrow."
"Why, do you have a lot of things to worry about?" Black Friday asked.
Hearing him ask this, Lin Hu was stunned for a moment, and then he was relieved: "It seems that there are not so many things to worry about. By the way, are you still looking for revenge against Yin Xiu?"
"Report! Why don't you report it! If you want to be honest when you come out to fool around, if you say you want to hack him to death, you must hack him to death. But...
I can't beat him now. It won't be too late to seek revenge from him in a few years. ”
……
According to Lin Hu, Liu Banxian was still alive when he saw Smith.
Obviously Smith caught Liu Banxian without intending to kill him or suck him dry.
Instead, he was used as a hostage, or bait, to lure Uncle Ming and Ma Xiaoyu away.
In addition, there may be other purposes, such as using Liu Banxian as coercive conditions to threaten the three of them?
Yin Xiu hasn’t figured it out yet.
But he knew that Smith's "heliophobia" must be real. This guy may have some kind of flaw that makes him more afraid of sunlight than other vampires, especially at noon when the sun is strong.
Daylight had a great impact on him, so much so that he could only take action in a hurry during the day and did not dare to fight with Yin Xiu and others for too long.
But this time, he had to attend the Hongmen Conference with Li Sheng, and even the time was limited.
It’s impossible to say that the Hongmen Conference should be moved to the evening, right? At that time, it will really become "for the ghosts to see".
In this way, as soon as Masahito Yamamoto fell, his plan was completely shattered.
After all, he is the carrot head, and there are many behind-the-scenes forces standing in front of the spokesperson. Others cannot convince the public, and they do not have the courage like him.
It's just that Yin Xiu can't care about the future situation at the moment. He just wants to catch up with Smith and rescue Liu Banxian who has fallen into the tiger's mouth.
Relying on the talisman marks left by Ma Xiaoyu along the road, Yin Xiu followed and finally came to a street.
On both sides of the place, there are all kinds of tenement buildings, all of which are similar.
In the middle of the street, there are several corpses. Judging from the signs that they have begun to be burned by the sun, they should be several vampires or blood slaves.
It seems that Uncle Ming and Ma Xiaoyu also encountered some enemies here.
A woman was huddled in the corner, covering her face tightly and shivering.
Yin Xiu walked up and patted her shoulder.
The woman jumped up immediately, trembling all over, and shouted: "Don't! Don't bite me!"
Yin Xiu reached out his hand and tried to calm her down, but the woman just kept yelling and seemed completely unable to listen to Yin Xiu's words. Sighing, Yin Xiu turned his two fingers into sword skills, drew a spell in the air, and pointed it towards the woman's forehead.
As wisps of purple energy poured in, the Pure Heart Talisman took effect, and the woman finally calmed down, although there was still deep fear in her eyes.
"What's going on?" they both asked in unison.
Yin Xiu scratched his head and explained: "I just got here. Although I have roughly guessed what happened here, I still want to ask you to do a favor and tell me what I just saw. This is very important to me."
When the woman heard this, her eyes widened immediately, "How do I know? Everyone is flying over the walls. It's like a fight of the century. I can't see clearly! And I was so frightened just now. Do you think I can calm down now?" Tell you what happened?”
Yin Xiu had no choice but to reach into his pocket and take out a banknote, "What about now? Do you see it clearly now?"
The woman's eyes immediately curved into crescents, "See clearly, see clearly!"
"Here's the thing, I was shopping just now...Okay, okay, I know you don't care what I'm doing!
Anyway, when I walked to the corner of the street, I saw three people, or rather four people, running on the street. Three people were running, and one person was tucked under his arm, as if he was asleep.
As they ran, the woman behind fired a dart, knocking off the cloak of the man in front.
Only then did I see that the person running in front was a ghost guy. His skin was frighteningly white, as if... yes, it was just like what you said. It was like a layer of white ash had been smeared on the skin. Even my aunt didn't turn it off. Such heavy makeup!
What's even more frightening is that for some reason, when the cloak came off, his face, neck, hands, and all the exposed skin started to smoke. I suspected that he must have applied white phosphorus on his skin. Otherwise, how could it catch fire?
Yes, it wasn't someone else who did it. The woman and uncle couldn't catch up with him and couldn't even touch him. As soon as he hit the sun, he inexplicably caught fire.
As soon as the smoke started coming out, his speed slowed down, and when he was about to be overtaken by someone, several ghost guys with skin as pale as his were killed from the other side.
I originally thought that these people would be like that ghost guy. They would die in the light and would catch fire later. But those people didn't do anything at all and blocked the uncle and the woman at once.
Then there was a fight, and they ended up looking like what you see now. ”
She pointed at the pile of burning bodies behind Yin Xiu, shocked.
"What happened next? Where did they go?"
"Hey, I didn't dare to look at it at the time. It was such a bloody scene, so I covered my eyes with both hands and looked with only half of my eyes. I saw the ghost guy rushing into the foreign building over there."
After saying this in one breath, the woman seemed to feel a lot more relaxed, and the color finally began to return to her face.
"I knew it when I saw that ghost guy refusing to let go of his uncle even though he was on fire.
This must have been an unholy love affair. The man and woman were killers sent by a certain big family to hunt down the pair of fateful lovers. I was really shocked at that time... Hey, I haven't finished talking yet! ”
Yin Xiu couldn't care less about listening to what she said. She accelerated her steps and rushed into the tenement building.
As soon as he entered the door, he was stunned.
There was almost no furniture in this tenement building, except for a bookcase filled with books in the corner.
Seeing this, Yin Xiu tentatively stepped forward and looked at the covers of the books.
They are all English books, ranging from economics and business to biology, politics, and popular novels.
Yin Xiu glanced over, and then stretched out his hand to the Bible placed in the corner.
He pulled gently, and the sound of gears and clockwork slowly came. Then the bookcase rotated, revealing a hole in the back, which was enough for one person to pass through.
It was pitch black inside, like a monster with its bottomless mouth wide open, just waiting for someone to walk in.
Snap!
Yin Xiu lit up a piece of talisman paper, and a circle of bright light immediately illuminated his side.
The seven-star talisman is a paper talisman that Taoists often use to replace a lantern when there is no light source. Although it looks like a thin piece of paper, it can burn for a long time and can be used as a lantern.
Yin Xiu entered the doorway and walked through a section paved with concrete. The remaining part looked more like part of a cave.
After walking along the passage for a while, he felt that the road began to go down and became silky, and the surrounding area began to be filled with a damp and musty smell.
Finally, after walking for a while, his footsteps began to sound hollow, with echoes every step of the way.
It was obvious that he had come to a wider area. Dots of moss on the rock wall reflected the glimmer of light on the talisman, showing a deserted blue-white color.
The places farther away are still shrouded and covered by darkness.
Walking like this, Yin Xiu felt like a firefly for a while, alone.
Until I saw a light emerging from the darkness on the other side, red, yellow and blue.
He immediately walked over quickly, and Ma Xiaoyu's face looked even more lovely and beautiful under the three-color light.
Ma Xiaoyu seemed to be relieved when she saw him, with an imperceptible smile in her eyes.
But then a look of disappointment appeared on her face, "Smith ran away. When we came in, he and Liu Banxian were missing. We don't know where they went."
Another red dot lit up in the darkness, which was the light of Uncle Ming's smoking.
"Going further back, the roads extend in all directions, like a honeycomb. Once you get in, you can't tell the direction. It's even more exaggerated than the Eight-door Golden Lock Formation, and that bastard ran too fast."
Uncle Ming couldn't help but shake his head.
Obviously both of them couldn't help but feel regretful about missing Smith.
Yin Xiu stepped forward and looked again and again at the darkness in front of them. Still unable to see anything, she finally gave up.
This cave seems to lead to the endless world underground.
Wujian is still very unfamiliar to Yin Xiu. If he goes in like this without a guide, it is like a blind man falling into a primitive forest, with almost no possibility of walking out on his own.
But an idea popped up in my mind again.
"Liu Banxian may not die," he said.
When the two of them heard this, they couldn't help but raise their lowered heads and looked at Yin Xiu.
One has a thoughtful look in his eyes, and the other has doubts in his eyes.
Uncle Ming obviously didn't believe it: "How can anyone give up the meat that reaches their mouth?"
Yin Xiu shook his head, "That guy is not a human, he is a vampire. And Liu Banxian, he is really not a good mouthful of meat..."
Ma Xiaoyu suddenly became confused, "Why?"
"To be honest, he has body odor."
"Oh..."
Ma Xiaoyu showed an indescribable expression and took half a step back.
Uncle Ming didn't take it seriously, he just nodded and said: "In my opinion, that Smith is indeed not so hungry that he is not selective about food. He is a person of taste after all."
"Moreover, there were many opportunities along the way where he could leave this burden behind, but he just kept holding on to him without killing him." Ma Xiaoyu added.
Although the word "burden" is a bit strange, Ma Xiaoyu's analysis is exactly the same as what Yin Xiu thought before.
The three finally reached a consensus: Liu Banxian cannot be found and cannot be rescued at the moment, but he will not die for a while. As for how to save him, they have to plan slowly.
No matter how bad it is, just wait for Smith to come to the door, wait for him to take revenge or put forward some conditions.
During their silence, a grunt sounded.
Uncle Ming kept silent, while Yin Xiu looked at Ma Xiaoyu helplessly, "Are you hungry?"
Ma Xiaoyu's face turned red and she touched her earrings, "We had a fight at noon and didn't make it in time for dinner."
"Then let's eat first. There is a nice tea restaurant nearby. No matter how busy you are, you still need to eat, right?"
Ma Xiaoyu nodded repeatedly without objection.
Yin Xiu looked at Uncle Ming again, "Uncle Ming, do you want one too?"
Uncle Ming rolled his eyes, "You brat, do you think my life has been in vain for so many years? I don't know if you really asked me to go?
Forget it! After fighting for a long time, I am too tired to eat. You can just go and eat. ”
As he spoke, he refilled his cigarette, glanced into the darkness, and walked away angrily.
……
After ordering food at the tea restaurant, Yin Xiu finally noticed that the inside of his boots had become sticky and extremely uncomfortable on his feet. Mixed with his socks, it was like stepping on a wet rag.
"I'm going to buy a pair of shoes. You can eat here first."
At this time, Ma Xiaoyu was burying her face in a large bowl of rice noodles, holding a cup of iced milk tea in her right hand, and just nodded vaguely.
"Okay, I'll be right back. If it's not enough, you can order some more food."
Yin Xiu sighed, opened the door and walked out. Unexpectedly, she bumped into someone walking on the street.
"Sorry, sorry."
Yin Xiu looked up and saw that she bumped into a young man, wearing a windbreaker, a vest, trousers, and slightly curly long hair.
On his chest, a green dragon loomed under his clothes.
The man was unprepared and was hit a little painfully. He immediately shouted angrily: "I'm going to attack you? You don't have eyes when you walk?"
Yin Xiu was a little dazed, and then took a deep look at the man, and found that there was still some childishness between the man's eyebrows, which was quite inconsistent with his clothes.
When the young man saw that Yin Xiu was looking at him, he felt that he was provoking him. He couldn't help but feel angry and grabbed Yin Xiu's collar.
"You brat, I don't think you're a person who can hit. Why do you keep looking at me like this? Aren't you afraid that I'll blow your eyes out with a punch?"
"Afraid! What I'm most afraid of is fighting!"
Yin Xiu grinned, "I just saw that my brother, you have wonderful bones and an irresistible charm all over your body. I was fascinated for a moment. I don't know what I call you, brother?"
"Easy to say."
The man let go of Yin Xiu's collar, and couldn't help but have a proud look on his face.
"My name is Ayi. Even though I just came out to hang out, I am a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers!
If you don't give me face, you can call me anything. If you give me face, you can call me Prince, and I can bear it! ”
After hearing what he said, Yin Xiu's mood improved and she couldn't help but laugh.
"Oh, Brother Prince..."
