Chapter 102: Forbidden City, the Groom Welcoming
Following the man in black robe and walking forward for two or three minutes, the voice in front of him that kept reminding him of his position was still ringing.
However, Zhang Hao pulled the bride in front of him to stop.
"Come here quickly."
The voice is still ringing. Even if Zhang Hao and the ghost bride stop, the other party seems to be calling them not far ahead. go ahead.
"Something's wrong, I'm afraid this thing is not a living person, but a ghost."
Obviously Zhang Haodu has not moved forward, but the place where the sound sounds is still not far or near every time. , just ten meters ahead.
Zhang Hao turned around and wanted to leave, but found that the passage had disappeared at some point.
"Come here, don't go wrong."
The voice is still ringing, and compared with the good old man reminding others before, Zhang Hao now only feels that the voice is full of Looking weird.
"Woooooo!"
A strange cry sounded in the alley, and Zhang Hao directly started crying with a ghostly face.
In this long and narrow alley, however, in this alley, the cry could not spread. When it came into contact with the wall, it was absorbed like sea water meeting a sponge.
The darkness covering the entire city seems to be able to suppress and weaken the supernatural influence of the ghosts.
It seems that except for the figure in the darkness, no one else can make a sound inside.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Hao immediately unfolded his own ghosts.
Black and white ghosts invaded this alley, a coffin appeared, and rich and deep darkness enveloped the entire alley.
A white curtain stretched out from Zhang Hao's waist, extending for more than ten meters and rolled up the black shadow in the distance to suppress him.
"Come here quickly."
However, the voice still did not disappear. On the contrary, after Zhang Hao attacked the figure, the voices began to overlap, seeming to There was a general sound in Zhang Hao's mind.
In the alley, figures in black robes appeared one after another, waving to Zhang Hao, as if gesturing him to go that way.
This sound seemed to carry an invisible supernatural power, making Zhang Hao's legs move forward unconsciously.
The darkness in the alley seemed to be dispelled at this moment, and one after another appeared in the depths of the alley, leading nowhere.
But at this time, the bride moved, and as the image of the bride flashed through Zhang Hao's consciousness, these sounds seemed to be resisted.
Now Zhang Hao not only shares the reboot of the ghost painting where the bride belongs, but also shares part of the ghost painting with the red hijab.
Although it is only a shared supernatural power, it has undergone earth-shaking changes compared to the past when there was no resistance to consciousness attacks.
Black and white ghosts kept invading this alley. Soon, Zhang Hao successfully opened a passage back in this alley.
“Let’s get out of here.”
Zhang Hao stared at the alley with a trace of fear in his eyes.
In this case, the waving figures in the darkness were very similar to the movements the Ghost Bride made when she asked him to attract ghosts.
What's even more weird is that after Zhang Hao waves, he can control the path of the ghost, and this ghost can also attract the ghost.
If Zhang Hao was less frightened and didn't have the protection of his bride, he might really fall for this ghost.
Following the passage opened by the ghost to the city street outside, Zhang Hao then looked at the long and narrow alley again.
This road is bottomless and there is no end in sight, but for some unknown reason, Zhang Hao ignored this situation before.
Obviously knowing that this is a supernatural place, it is the road connected to a certain supernatural place by the old man in the gods using a yellow mud road.
Logically speaking, after Zhang Hao enters here, he shouldn't easily believe what's inside.
"It seems that this place is not simple, so you have to be careful."
"This may be the place where the old man wants to trap me."
Zhang Hao stared at this alley for a long time and memorized it firmly.
This ghost's ability is very similar to the bride's ability to summon ghosts. It seems that there is an ability that the bride does not have. Perhaps the two sides can complement each other as puzzle pieces.
But at this time, Zhang Hao didn't want to touch it.
When he just took action, Zhang Hao felt some kind of obstruction. The invisible darkness should not be the weirdness in the alley, but the weirdness belonging to this city.
The situation in this city is still unclear. Imprisoning one of the ghosts at will may destroy the balance of the city and get you into some trouble that is difficult to deal with.
Across this alley, Zhang Hao continued to walk forward.
As he moved forward, he looked at the surrounding buildings.
Some buildings in the city are so dark that you can't see what's inside.
There is a faint light in some buildings, and through the windows, some strange figures can be seen moving inside.
"Ta! Ta da!"
Just as Zhang Hao walked forward, the sound of high heels on the ground came from behind him.
This sound was very familiar to him, like the sound Zhang Youhong made when her high heels hit the ground.
Zhang Hao stopped and looked in the direction of the sound behind him, but there was nothing behind him, as if everything was just an illusion.
But when Zhang Hao continued to walk forward, the sound of high heels hitting the ground soon appeared behind him again.
The voice was urgent and seemed to be approaching Zhang Hao.
However, when Zhang Hao looked behind him again, he found nothing.
“Weird stuff.”
Zhang Hao stared behind him for a long time, then slowly turned around and walked back.
This time the footsteps appeared again, but Zhang Hao did not stop. Black and white ghosts began to appear, spreading behind Zhang Hao.
Through the ghosts, Zhang Hao could feel that behind him, there was a pair of invisible high heels that were constantly stepping on his ghosts.
This pair of high heels seemed to have the ability to walk regardless of ghosts. The opponent's footsteps were very fast, and soon he was only five meters away from Zhang Hao.
At this time, Zhang Hao could feel an inexplicable sense of crisis.
Just like the pair of embroidered shoes on the bride's feet, perhaps after the other party gets close to her, she will launch some kind of horrific attack just like the embroidered shoes.
Immediately, Zhang Hao took the ghost bride's hand and struck behind him without looking back.
The strange footsteps stopped, Zhang Hao turned around again and saw a figure standing behind him.
The man had long hair, was wearing a cheongsam that had turned gray due to the invasion of black and white ghosts, and a pair of black high heels.
"Liu Qingqing? No, that's not right."
Zhang Hao looked at the other party and quickly reacted.
The cheongsam worn by the other party was not a ghost, but a cheongsam stained with supernatural beings, so it lost its color in front of the black and white ghosts.
The high heels on the opponent's feet were a real ghost, so in this case, the color was not lost.
Zhang Hao walked up to the ghost, looked at it for a moment, and then lost interest.
Only the pair of high heels on this woman's body are ghosts, and the other parts are just ordinary corpses.
After confirming that the ghost was not a threat, Zhang Hao reached out and pushed her to the ground, making her kneel there while he turned around and left to continue moving forward.
Although this high-heeled female ghost is not strong, the fact that I was targeted by two ghosts just after entering this town is enough to show how weird this place is.
After passing through this Chinese-style street, a park soon appeared on the side.
In the center of the park, there is also a lake.
Looking from a distance, there seems to be a beautiful woman playing in the lake.
But when Zhang Hao looked at him, the woman in the lake seemed to have seen him as well. She swam towards this side at an extremely fast speed, and soon appeared at the edge of the lake, dying with a pair of vicious eyes. Staring at Zhang Hao.
“The ghost who cannot leave the lake.”
Zhang Hao did not pay attention to the female ghost in the lake. After remembering such an existence in his heart, he continued to go deeper into the city.
This city is almost a ghost town. Zhang Hao has a hunch that he may gain a lot in this city.
In such a ghost town, there might be some puzzles suitable for you.
After passing through the park and walking two streets, Zhang Hao seemed to have arrived in the center of the city.
“Forbidden City!”
In the courtyard of a two-story building in the center of the city, such a sign hangs.
"Forbidden City?" Zhang Hao looked at the courtyard and walked over curiously.
He is not very worried about the danger. After all, whether it is the Caesar Hotel or the derivative ghost paintings left in Dadong City, he can get out of trouble.
Walking into the courtyard, it was different from what I imagined. There were no people and no ghosts inside. There was only a counter in the center of the courtyard. After Zhang Hao and the bride approached, the counter opened strangely, and a wooden sign was thrown out by him.
"Taboo in the Forbidden City: Red and White Evil!"
The moment the wooden sign was thrown, Zhang Hao felt a sense of uneasiness all over his body. An invisible connection appeared on him.
“Is this some kind of medium? It seems to have a curse.”
Zhang Hao walked to the wooden sign and picked it up.
The curse I received seemed to come from this wooden sign. It was some kind of medium belonging to this strange city.
The moment Zhang Hao picked up the sign, an inexplicable sentence appeared in his consciousness.
"Those who turn against the coffin will die, those who cry at night will die, those who kneel down will die, those who leave the ground will die, and those who spy will die."
"Huh? Is this... a murder pattern implanted? ”
Zhang Hao stared at the wooden sign and the counter.
I just picked up this wooden sign, but unexpectedly, a murder pattern was implanted in it.
However, just when Zhang Hao was about to attack the opponent, his action stopped.
The behavior is restricted. This counter does not conform to any of the five murder laws implanted above.
“No, that’s not right.”
"This is not to implant a killing pattern, but to strengthen my existing killing pattern." Zhang Hao suddenly reacted.
In fact, these rules that were implanted are all Zhang Hao’s own killing rules, but because he does not act completely according to the killing rules, he usually cannot see it. .
Ignoring the implanted pattern, Zhang Hao picked up the wooden sign and quickly understood its function by instinct.
This is something similar to resident status.
The curse on this sign is something called a taboo.
With the curse represented by this taboo, you can only attack anything in this city that violates the killing rules of your taboo.
Otherwise, imprisoning other evil spirits in this city would violate the laws of this city.
“I see, the five murder laws in my body were extracted and used as my taboos in this city?”
Zhang Hao looked at the second floor of the yard, which was pitch black. I don't know the specific situation, but I can feel a depressing atmosphere.
This city is very scary. At least Zhang Hao currently does not have the ability to challenge in this city. In this case, it is better to act according to the taboo rules.
Anyway, Zhang Hao has five murder patterns, which are relatively easy to trigger.
"By the way, bride, what taboo rules have you extracted here?"
Zhang Hao looked at the ghost bride, and soon, a line of words appeared in his consciousness.
This is the ghost bride directly copying and pasting the taboo rules she got from the brand to Zhang Hao with one click.
“Those who see it die, those who think about it die, those who come near it die, those who touch it die, and those who go against the sedan chair die.”
"Do you have the same five rules as me? Not bad."
Zhang Hao was quite satisfied after receiving the content pasted by the Ghost Bride with one click.
In this way, I and the bride have ten taboo rules, and they can move around relatively freely in this city.
I just don’t know why this city keeps implanting taboo rules on other evil spirits.
But these things have nothing to do with Zhang Hao. After leaving the city, he can take out the ghost scissors from the red room and cut off the curse of the city on himself.
Leaving the courtyard, Zhang Hao walked to the street outside.
When a ghost came towards him, Zhang Hao immediately stretched out a white curtain from his waist and hung the ghost up.
Those who leave the ground die.
After hanging the ghost up, Zhang Hao threw it directly into the ghost painting.
This is one of the taboo rules that Zhang Hao got, but obviously, Zhang Hao taking the initiative to get the opponent off the ground also falls into this category.
After throwing the ghost into the ghost painting for a while, Zhang Hao, who didn't notice any changes, quickly understood that this would not trigger the city's murder pattern.
"I see, let's go, let's go find the puzzle."
We walked in the direction where Zhang Hao came.
I will never let that alley go.
Before, I was afraid that controlling the other party would break the balance of the city. Now I am also a member of the city, and I am not afraid of anyone.
As Zhang Hao walked forward, quietly, the door of a three-story house opened.
An old man wearing a paper shroud appeared outside the gate, sitting on a rocking chair that kept shaking.
“Creak, crunch!”
The rocking chair kept shaking. Just as Zhang Hao passed by, the old man opened his eyes suddenly.
“Are you targeting me?”
Zhang Hao turned back to look at the other person. The old man had appeared earlier than later, but he appeared when he was passing by. He also opened his eyes when he just passed by.
However, at this moment, the old man seemed to have seen something terrifying, and his eyes that were originally open quietly closed.
"Huh?"
Zhang Hao suddenly noticed something, and the black and white ghosts suddenly dispersed and invaded the old man.
Not long after, a black and white portrait fell on the rocking chair.
The old man targeted Zhang Hao, but the moment he opened his eyes, Zhang Hao's snooper death pattern was triggered, allowing Zhang Hao to take action.
And this old man just happened to really trigger the murder pattern that when he saw Zhang Hao outside the city, his back would be made into a black and white portrait.
"It just so happens that we still need a place to stay temporarily. Let's go up to this old man's room and have a look first."
Although Zhang Hao doesn't need to rest, the ghosts in this city are really... Too many.
If you keep walking outside, you will inevitably be stared at by some terrifying ghosts.
Although Zhang Hao is not very worried if there are only one or two, it will be troublesome to deal with a large number.
And he also planned to search in this city to see if he could find other puzzle pieces of himself and the Ghost Bride.
When you walk into this private house, there is nothing special about the layout.
The old house almost imitates the layout of a normal family, with kitchen, living room, bedroom, and bathroom.
It’s just that the owner of the house obviously doesn’t need to use these things, so everything inside, except for a Taishi chair, basically accumulated a thick layer of dust
Zhang Hao walked into the room without any intention of cleaning it. He closed the door and stood at the window sill looking at everything below.
Perhaps because of the relatively high degree of terror in him, when he was walking on the road below before, he could not see a few ghosts on the road.
But as he walked upstairs and closed the door, strange figures began to appear on the road below.
“The instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages makes these evil ghosts instinctively hide their aura when I come and go.”
“It seems that this step is the right decision. To find the puzzle in this place, you need to hide yourself.”
The house here seems to have the effect of isolating the atmosphere. No matter how Zhang Hao observes other houses, at most he can see the presence of human figures inside, and he is completely unable to sense the extent of the evil ghost inside.
During Zhang Hao's constant observation, he soon discovered a group of figures worthy of his attention.
It was a group of people wearing red clothes, carrying lanterns, and carrying a sedan chair behind them and walking forward.
The sedan chair was lit with lights, and there seemed to be a woman inside.
“Is that a groom? Is that a bride in the sedan?”
Staring at the man wearing a red robe standing at the front of the team.
For no reason, Zhang Hao had a strong instinct to snatch that piece of clothing for the first time.
This desire is even stronger than when I met any ghost before.
Even when he met the white ghost candle before, the white lantern that can attract ghosts did not stimulate his instinct so strongly.
Almost instantly, black and white ghosts invaded the house.
Far away on the dim road, with a burst of black and white, a coffin appeared out of thin air. Zhang Hao knelt on the coffin, and the long white curtain was dragged from the coffin to the ground.
Zhang Hao controlled the ghosts carrying the coffin at his feet to carry the ghost coffin and crash into the wedding team.
This moment.
Controlled by a strong instinct, he didn't even think about how terrifying the ghost was, he just wanted to snatch the red clothes.
