Chapter 9 The Curse of the Pendulum Clock (two in one, make up for yesterday)
Eight o'clock in the morning.
The Central Square of D City District, Dadong City.
The empty square is quite desolate at this time. Although everything is recovering, the vibrant spring seems desolate and dull.
In one of the open spaces, there were two strange people tied up with a young man wearing a white sweater and a cold expression. They didn't know who they were waiting for.
Whoosh, whoosh.
The cold wind blew against Zhao Leiling's pale face. He looked at the rope tied to his hands and said to a young man wearing black clothes with a fierce and blue-black face next to him: "I want to go. Go to the toilet.”
The green-faced young man was silent.
After seeing that his request failed, Zhao Leiling was not surprised and continued to wait for Ye Lai's arrival.
At this time, a masked man in black clothes but with a healthy face who was standing behind Zhao Leiling and staring at him spoke.
"Zheng Long, why are we wiping Pei Dong's butt and dealing with a newcomer who has only been in the industry for a day?"
"I don't know. It is said that this is what the person who founded the Pendulum Clock Survival Club asked Pei Dong to do." Zheng Long said with a blue and black face.
Then he added: "Actually, I don't think it's necessary. My ghost's name is Zheng Long and your domain ghost Zhou Jiefeng only controls one ghost, but they are cursed by the pendulum clock. With their cooperation, they can touch each other. The person in charge who has mastered two ghosts at once is not overqualified to deal with a newbie?”
“You are right, I really don’t know what Pei Dong was thinking. I’m afraid the codename ghost was written upside down. Right?" Zhou Jiefeng nodded in agreement.
Listening carefully to the conversation between the two, Zhao Leiling secretly wrote down the key information in his heart.
But, can I really survive today successfully?
Looking down at the ground, the depressed Zhao Leiling whispered: "I beg you this time, Ye Lai, please don't come to save me."
"Huh? That is? "
Suddenly seeing a moving round black shadow on the ground, Zhao Leiling subconsciously looked up at the sky.
There is a smooth and reflective ice mirror floating in the blue sky. If you look carefully, there are two vague figures standing on it.
I see, you are planning to use the same prank you used in the dormitory.
How brave.
After a moment of reflection, the calm Zhao Leiling pretended to shrug as if nothing had happened, but in fact he already knew what was going to happen next.
"Yawn, I have a bad feeling. Why don't you, Zhou Jiefeng, use the ghost realm to explore the surroundings?" Zheng Long said doubtfully.
He has been a ghost controller for more than one or two months. His body is riddled with supernatural erosion. How can he still sneeze like before?
Smiling stiffly, Zhou Jiefeng shook his head and said: "You are too cautious. Don't worry, you can't be killed by someone falling from the sky with a palm, right?"
Zheng Long saw that Zhou Jiefeng didn't take this matter seriously at all. Take it to heart and feel relieved.
Almost when the two ghost masters relaxed their vigilance, the sky above them turned dark for no reason.
In mid-air ten meters above the ground.
Wang Jiaxin, who was standing on the ice, looked at Ye Lai, who was nodding next to him, and jumped down with a small red lacquered wooden bench.
immediately.
Wang Jiaxin, who was flying in the air, shouted: "The Tathagata Stool!"
Zheng Long, who had normal hearing, raised his head in confusion, then his face changed and he was suddenly pushed down by Wang Jiaxin. On the ground, thick black blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
Zheng Long reacted and immediately used his supernatural power.
Zheng Long, who fell to the ground, took a deep breath and opened his mouth to face Wang Jiaxin, who had just climbed up from him. Then there was a shrill and strange scream from around him. This strange scream was very scary. It was like a voice that a person could shout, like an unknown ghost making a terrifying roar.
At the same time, Zhou Jiefeng, whose figure was vague, began to use supernatural power to affect the surrounding areas, and also spread out a ghost domain to cover the square area to prevent the screams from spreading.
After the cry started, Wang Jiaxin, who was bleeding from all her orifices, made a bold move that surprised everyone.
Boom!
“What the hell are you calling your mother?!”
The irritated Wang Jiaxin raised the small red lacquered wooden bench and hit Zheng Long’s neck hard twice. Lai Ye tossed his coat and landed directly next to Zhao Leiling.
Then, he resisted twice and was able to suppress Gui Teng. After the repulsive bench hit him, Zheng Long immediately covered his neck in pain. He seemed to be suffocated and unable to move, and fell to the ground.
Then, holding the hands of Zhao Leiling and Wang Jiaxin, Ye Lai gritted his teeth and quickly used the Snow Ghost Realm, condensing a burst of ice and snow, and forcibly opened the ghost realm belonging to Zhou Jiefeng that enveloped them by one meter. of the mouth.
After doing this, Ye Lai did not inflict a blow on Zheng Long who had temporarily lost his combat effectiveness. He quickly pulled the other two people away from the blurry Zhou Jiefeng and the two others through the snow scene ghost field.
"Fuck, I couldn't keep that newbie in the ghost domain that I'm good at." Zhou Jiefeng, who didn't intend to catch up, cursed.
Without caring too much, Zhou Jiefeng helped Zheng Long, who was lying on the ground and still out of breath, up.
Almost after running out of the central square, the frosty Ye Lai breathed a sigh of relief and put away the overused snow ghostland.
"Jia Xin, you really dared just now. It's not a big problem to hit the ghost controller's neck with a bench. I, Emperor Ye Tian, would like to call you king." He looked back to make sure that no one was chasing him. After coming up, Ye Lai praised Wang Jiaxin coldly.
"Hee hee, this is all because of this small red lacquered wooden bench. I didn't expect that Lao Zhao was not so good, but this treasure is quite good." Wang Jiaxin said with a silly smile.
Hearing this sentence, I finally felt better, and Zhao Leiling, who was surviving the disaster, suddenly turned dark.
Ye Lai, who was used to it, just shook his head slightly and moved his eyes slightly, as if he was thinking about the problem.
After the confrontation just now, he successfully found the memory of the two ghost masters in his mind.
Zheng Long and Zhou Jiefeng are two supporting characters in the original work. They appeared in more than 600 chapters. Among them, Zheng Long, whose ghost ability is the ghost cry, was instantly killed by Yang Jian. He had the equivalent of a fourth-level ghost in Yang Jian. Zhou Jiefeng from the domain-level ghost domain was directly captured alive.
Other than that, he really didn’t remember anything outstanding about these two people.
"You go back first, I will stop those two people." Ye Lai turned his back to Wang Jiaxin and Zhao Leiling and said.
After hesitating for a while, Zhao Leiling, knowing that as an ordinary person could not help Ye Lai much, pulled Wang Jiaxin and prepared to leave.
After thinking for a while, before leaving Ye Lai, Wang Jiaxin handed the small red lacquered wooden bench she was holding to Ye Lai.
"You must come back alive, Emperor Ye."
"Well, I will be back, don't worry."
After all preparations, Ye Tiandi, who is not burdened by any burden, Lai's eyes condensed, and frost and snow condensed out of thin air all over his body. The ground under his feet turned into ice, and disappeared in front of Wang Jiaxin and Wang Jiaxin with a whoosh.
This time, he had the mentality of destroying the opponent, so he didn't even care about the deterioration of his physical condition caused by excessive use of Ghost Domain.
Almost a minute later.
Ye Lai returned to the central square again.
It’s just that there are a few more people in the empty and spacious square than before.
In addition to Zheng Long and Zhou Jiefeng, there is also a man in a trench coat.
"What the hell is going on with you? A cute new guy brought two burdens and you let him run away!" The man in the windbreaker yelled at Zheng Long and the other two.
The man in the windbreaker took off his hat. His sparse hair was full of cracks, as if it had been torn apart by something and then healed.
Every crack and pull can tear the skin apart. It seems that these wounds have not healed yet, and every move can cause wounds to appear.
This kind of pain that tears the skin happens all the time, but this man doesn't care at all. His expression is slightly numb, as if he has long been accustomed to this kind of tearing pain.
"Pei Dong, it's not that I can't do it, it's that guy's ghost realm that has a smaller range but is probably stronger than mine. Plus, with a terrifying supernatural bench, he almost didn't kill Zheng Long. " Zhou Jiefeng argued with dissatisfaction.
Ye Lai, who was hiding himself in a ghost realm in the distance, was slowly approaching and preparing to attack a few people, but was stunned.
At this moment, he confirmed the man's identity.
One of the first persons in charge of the headquarters is named Pei Dong, codenamed Gui Mo Tou.
Although the code name is very common and even a little funny, this guy is very dangerous. If you touch your head by him, you will die. This is the obliteration of consciousness.
Not daring to hesitate, Ye Lai took action decisively at this time. He lifted up the red painted wooden bench and hit the unsuspecting Zheng Long hard.
Immediately.
thumping!
Zheng Long, who suffered a direct blow to the back of his head and whose supernatural power was also suppressed by the bench, immediately burst into tears, and his white brains mixed with stinking black blood spattered everywhere.
"Fuck, Pei Dong, please touch his head." shouted Zhou Jiefeng, who was covered in plasma.
Pei Dong reacted and immediately grabbed Ye Lai's head one meter away with both hands.
Looking at the blue-black palms, which looked like ghosts, the calm Ye Lai lifted up the small red lacquered wood bench and smashed it open.
Pei Dongdang, who suffered a supernatural attack on his hands, changed his expression and took several steps back. His face was distorted and hideous under the long-lost pain.
Zhou Jiefeng, who was standing next to him, immediately launched the ghost domain upon seeing this.
"Hey, shit, my hand is about to be broken." Pei Dong, who was out of control and kept beating the animal with his green and black palms, said with a sullen face.
The figure gradually blurred, and the dark and gloomy ghost realm enveloped the entire central square. Zhou Jiefeng disappeared without a trace, bit by bit, the snowy ghost realm suppressed the snowy ghost realm around Ye Lai.
Knowing that he was passive, Ye Lai no longer took the initiative to attack. Instead, he looked around, planning to give Zheng Long the final blow.
Then, just as Ye Lai lifted the red-painted wooden bench, he felt a lot of pressure, as if a ghost was sitting on it and used supernatural interference to smash it down for the third time.
"So that's it. The supernatural attack of the red lacquered wood bench will increase as the number of hits increases, and there will be more and more supernatural interference." He seemed to understand how to use this supernatural item.
Then, using the supernatural power of Faceless Ghostface to offset the supernatural interference from the bench, Ye Lai still violently smashed the upper half of Zheng Long’s head with the bench.
This time Zheng Long is really gone, completely gone.
"Damn, Zheng Long was really killed by a newcomer with a supernatural object." Pei Dong said in surprise.
"Of course he will die, and you are no exception." Ye Lai coldly wiped the dirty stool legs with Zheng Long's clothes.
Let alone Zheng Long, Ye Lai can guarantee that a ghost controller who also suffered from the pendulum clock's curse and only controlled one ghost would be able to go on the road obediently.
The third stool attack, which can make the truly terrifying ghost 'Original Ghost Vine' leave in pain, can definitely suppress the ghosts that have not fully recovered under the control of the ghost controller, and even the pendulum clock curse is not impossible. suppress.
Suddenly frightened, Pei Dong's body was trembling. He inexplicably felt a fear towards the unfathomable Ye Lai that he had not seen in a long time.
Unknowingly, Ye Lai had entered the same state of being a ghost yesterday. His breath was lifeless, his face was ashen, and his eyes without any highlight were filled with a kind of numbness and stagnation that only a ghost can have. , and indifference.
Glancing at Zheng Long's body, which was slightly shaking at his feet and covered with little frost flowers, Ye Lai showed a hypocritical and stiff smile.
I really want to take off those people’s faces, I can’t control my impulse at all.
I don’t know if other people’s identities are useful or not.
Thinking of this, Ye Lai suddenly woke up and barely controlled this instinctive impulse that was similar to the law of killing. He grabbed the frost-covered corpse on the ground where the evil ghost was resurrecting, and quickly threw it towards Pei Dong in the distance.
Oh my God, how could someone not only stay away, but also dare to resurrect the dead ghost and throw the terrifying corpse as a weapon!
I'm afraid that's all for top ghost controllers, right?
"Zhou Jiefeng, why the hell did you stop him!" Pei Dong cursed loudly.
“I want to, but there are other supernatural interferences on the corpse, and my gray ghost realm cannot move!” Zhou Jiefeng, who was hiding in the dark, shouted
Seeing the terrifying thing in mid-air The corpses are going to fly to me.
The startled Pei Dong hurriedly moved to the right to avoid the corpse, but at this time the corpse flying over opened its mouth, and then there was a shrill and strange scream from all around. It was terrifying, not like a sound that a human could shout, like an unknown ghost making a terrifying roar.
After the cry, Pei Dong, who was bleeding from all his orifices, was stunned for a moment in pain, and then he was crushed to the ground by the rapidly reviving, frost-covered corpse thrown by Ye Lai.
Closing the mouth of the corpse that kept trying to open, Pei Dong touched the frost and snow on it under Ye Lai's cold eyes.
"Don't underestimate me, you guy." Pei Dong grabbed Zheng Long's body and said to Ye Lai, who had strange eyes.
Isn't this look the way he usually looks at dying people, as if he's watching a corpse dance?
The creepy Pei Dong was stunned at this time.
"Take a good look at yourself now." Ye Lai reminded while looking around.
Difficult, am I already dead? !
Hearing this, Pei Dong lowered his head and looked at his body.
I saw that most of the body that was unscathed just now was now enveloped in cold frost, and the deeper the supernatural erosion, the thicker the ice formed, and it was still spreading rapidly.
It seemed that he didn’t even have time to breathe. In the blink of an eye, Pei Dong, who had despairing eyes, was completely frozen into an ice sculpture together with the resurrecting ghost in his hand. Like a beautiful work of art, in the gray and gloomy place Lifelike in the sunlight.
This strange and terrifying scene was witnessed by the frightened Zhou Jiefeng who was hiding in the darkness of the ghost realm.
What a joke, three veteran ghost masters actually designed and killed two of them for a newcomer.
There was no time to think too much, he just wanted to escape back to the Wang family's ancient house and find someone to support him.
Right away.
The gloomy atmosphere began to disappear, and Zhou Jiefeng was using the ghost realm to escape.
Ye Lai, who had calculated all the timings and guessed Zhou Jiefeng's plan, took a deep breath and found Zhou Jiefeng's location by looking around before.
Whoosh!
Under the influence of Ye Lai's huge strength, the small red lacquered wood bench flew towards Zhou Jiefeng who was getting further away at lightning speed.
With frightened eyes, Zhou Jiefeng tried to escape through the ghost world, but at the moment when the bench almost touched his face, he realized that it was too late.
You can vaguely see a swollen and ferocious face on the bench, like a resurrected ghost. It is this terrifying supernatural being that distorts the gray ghost realm and renders the supernatural ineffective.
Boom!
The red painted wooden bench hit Zhou Jie Feng’s chest for the fourth time, and his chest was deeply dented. His whole body fell on the open space, his eyes widened, and blood spurted out in big mouthfuls because it was in disrepair. And the paint-peeling bench was given a new look by the dye on it.
Slowly walking from a short distance away, Ye Lai, who had regained his identity as a human, looked at Zhou Jiefeng who was lying on the ground with his eyes open, and sighed: "If I didn't know about the mysterious resurgence, and lack of information, wouldn't you guys It's a pity that he might die. "
Respecting every respectable opponent, he picked up the blood-stained red lacquered wood bench and gently touched Zhou Jiefeng's face with his hands, allowing him to close his eyes.
At this point, the Curse of the Pendulum trio announced their demise.
To be honest, Ye Lai still has lingering fears when he thinks back to the confrontation just now.
If he had failed to kill Zheng Long in a sneak attack just now, he would not only have been trapped in a fatal situation surrounded by three people, but he would also have lacked a corpse with supernatural power to spread the frost.
If he doesn't act ruthlessly and seizes the right opportunity, he will only let Pei Dong and Zhou Jiefeng survive, and it will only become more trouble.
Suddenly, a strange voice sounded.
Ye Lai, who was deep in thought, immediately turned around and looked behind him.
"You are the one from the Clock Survival Club, I've been looking for you for a long time!" It was a mature young man wearing a criminal police uniform, with a lazy image but giving people a sense of danger.
"What's your name?" Ye Lai asked.
"I am the person in charge of Daguang City. My surname is Sheng, my name is Tianming, and my code name is Ghost Hand Shadow. I have been ordered to capture you and other rebel gangsters." The confident Sheng Tianming replied.
“I said I am not a member of the Clock Survival Society, do you believe it?”
“P, I saw you collecting the body of that person, are you making excuses?”
"." Ye Lai was silent.
His current condition is very bad. Continuous use of the ghost realm has greatly deteriorated his body, not to mention that he only used the red painted wooden bench four times in a row not long ago.
Supernatural items are supernatural items after all, and they must come with a price.
And Sheng Tianming is obviously not weak in strength. Looking at the old wind chime pointed at him from his waist, it is obviously a supernatural item.
With nothing to do, Ye Lai covered his heart. He was trembling with coldness all over his body. He stared at Sheng Tianming opposite him with all his concentration, ready to take the initiative to revive the evil ghost and be ready to fight at any time
