Chapter 29

Chapter 29

The mountain road dug by the Ghost King can really be described as walking on the tip of a needle. It is normal for the road surface to be bumpy, but not only is it bumpy, but there is also a deep pit from time to time. The pit is filled with tens of millions of ants, so densely packed that it makes people creepy. It feels like every limb is being bitten by ants.

Gi, however, walked more steadily than those of them who wore flat shoes despite wearing high heels. She was always calm and composed in the face of danger, and she was graceful and elegant.

They had just left the ant pit. When Luo Yu thought of the densely packed ants, goosebumps appeared all over his body.

He quickly tried to find a topic to talk about, avoiding the scene: "Wang Sanpao, where did you get the breast enhancement pills you just mentioned?"

Wang Sanpao's mask was uncomfortable to wear. He tried to pull it open a little to breathe. "Oh, you mean this? I made it myself. I made it when I was bored in Honglindi."

"You can make this kind of thing," Luo Yu said in admiration, "Have you ever sold it?

Wang Sanpao said: "No, I just came out to Honglindi not long ago. I have been sweeping garbage for half a month since I came out. I finally don't have to sweep the garbage anymore, but you guys took it away. Sigh."

Luo Yu laughed dryly and said, "Has anyone used your product?"

Wang Sanpao nodded: "Yes, it has grown a lot, and children can sit on it and play on the slide."

"Watch out, there's another ant pit," said Gi.

Luo Yu's whole body shrank suddenly, and the nausea and vomiting came again.

Luo Zhi noticed his intentions and said, "I'll hold you."

Luo Yu was stunned. Before he could react, his feet felt empty and his whole body was lifted up by Luo Zhi.

Luo Yu clasped Luo Zhi's neck with both hands, closed her eyes, and lay quietly in his arms, like a sleeping beauty.

Even though he was pretending to be asleep.

Gi's high heels were clattering non-stop. He stopped in front of the ant pit, touched his chest, and gracefully lifted and leaped his right leg, the tail of his robe fluttering in the air, before he crossed the ant pit steadily.

It brushed off the nonexistent dust on its cheongsam, ruffled its hair, and said flatteringly, "Come here, my dears."

When Luo Yu, who was in Luo Zhi's arms, heard this, he almost choked on his saliva and forced himself to hold back from making a sound.

Luo Zhi tiptoed and easily crossed over.

The coward Wang Sanpao didn't dare to come over. He stared at the giant ant pit, his legs shaking uncontrollably.

He pleaded, "Master, why don't you hug me too."

When Luo Yu heard this, he opened his eyes and glanced over. Seeing the giant ant pit, he suddenly increased the strength of his hands and clasped them tighter.

Wang Sanpao looked at this scene and cried in his heart: Luoyu, Luoyu, you are safe now, don’t hold on to your husband anymore, let your husband come to help me, I really don’t dare to step over.

Luo Zhi said, "Take bigger steps. If you fall, I will pull you up."

Damn it! Wang Sanpao cursed them in his heart: Damn it, you’re still falling down! If I fall down for a second, at least half of my body will be bitten off, and I might even lose my life here!

Luo Yu felt better now. He looked up at Luo Zhi's handsome face and said, "Luo Zhi, why don't you go and kick him over here? He hasn't moved for so long, he really doesn't dare to come over."

"Coward." Gi muttered.

"Ah, yes, yes!" Wang Sanpao nodded wildly: "Master, you can kick me and throw me anywhere! I'm not afraid!"

Luo Zhi put Luo Yu down, walked over to Wang Sanpao, grabbed his collar, and in an instant, he was on the other side.

Wang Sanpao thought to himself: Having great magical powers is amazing. Just wait, one day I will be superior to the twelve spiritual beasts!

After crossing the ant pit, they continued to follow Gi.

The mountain was shrouded in mist and darkness, quiet and deep. Only the clicking sound of Gi's high heels sounded extremely uncomfortable, like a countdown to some impending danger.

Suddenly, an object like a small stone rolled down from the side of the hillside.

Boom, boom, boom, it finally rolled to Luo Yu's feet.

Luo Yu took a closer look and found that it was actually an egg wrapped in a moldy net!

In an instant, he suddenly thought of the group of rotten eggs with extremely poisonous properties that Luo Zhi mentioned, and was about to shout Luo Zhishi.

Luo Zhi raised his index finger and shook his head at him, signaling him not to make any noise.

Wang Sanpao also saw the egg. Fortunately, his eyes were not in vain. He caught a glimpse of Luo and Luo Zhi's movements and understood that he had to be quiet and not disturb the egg, otherwise he would be in trouble.

At this time, Gi also felt something was wrong. He gently took off his high heels. For a moment, there was no movement around him. The only sound he could hear was the thumping of his heartbeat.

The fog in the mountains suddenly thickened at this moment, as if a pot of boiling water was suddenly poured on it. The fog spread out layer by layer. Originally, you could vaguely see the road under your feet, but now you can't see it clearly. Gi's figure in front has been trapped in the fog.

Luo Yu looked to his side, but his heart suddenly shook, and a chill ran from his feet to his head.

He is the only one left here now!

Luo Zhi and Wang Sanpao were not there. The surroundings were extremely quiet and eerie, as if he was lying in a coffin. His whole body began to tremble, and he called out softly.

"Luo Zhi?"

"Luo Zhi?"

"Luo Zhi?"

There was no response, and he was now certain of one thing.

He got lost.

But there was only one road, and he had been following Luo Zhi all the time, without changing direction at all, so how could they have gotten separated?

He took a deep breath, trying hard to control himself from panicking, and firmly believed that he would find him soon.

As soon as this thought came to mind, he remembered what Luo Zhi said that day: It would be difficult to find a first-grade spiritual weapon like Gi if it was lost in Chishan.

But now he is powerless and there is no food here. Can he hold on until Luo Zhi finds him?

I'm afraid it's uncertain.

Staying there wasn't an option, but if he continued forward he didn't know what would happen.

No matter what I do, it's just like this.

Then... write a suicide note.

No, he didn't even have a pen and paper!

All he has on him now is a camera and an N95 mask on his face.

After much thought, Luo Yu finally decided to keep going forward, thinking that maybe he would meet them while walking.

Just as he was about to raise his foot, a crack like lightning suddenly appeared in front of him. The crack expanded and the situation inside became clearer and clearer.

Luo Yu's pupils suddenly dilated, and he seemed to not believe his eyes.

I saw rows of gold coins in the cracks!

"What happened? What happened? Why did you suddenly fall into a coma?"

On the mountain road, Gi was squatting and taking the pulse of Luo Yu, who had been unconscious in Luo Zhi's arms. It had been half an hour since Luo Yu fell into coma, but there had been no progress, and his eyebrows were only getting tighter and tighter.

Gi put his hand down, frowned and shook his head: "This is so strange, there is nothing wrong with his body, his breathing is normal, his soul is still alive, and the rotten eggs didn't attack him, so why did he fall into a coma?"

"Wait a moment, I'll search again."

Ever since the rotten egg appeared, Luo Yu fell into a coma. Even Gi couldn't find the reason. It was really weird.

Luo Zhi's face was gloomy. He unconsciously tightened his grip on Luo Yu's hand, and his hand was trembling slightly. He said in a hoarse voice, "Please hurry up. If this doesn't work, I'll have to go back to the human world."

"Who are you looking down on? I am the fairy with the strongest brain. Give me another ten minutes." Gi pressed his eyebrows and quickly looked up the reason for this situation in his mind. There was too much information stored in his brain and he couldn't come up with an answer right away.

Time passed by minute by minute, and apart from still breathing, Luo Yu showed all other symptoms, just like a dead body.

Gi's hand pressing on his brow trembled suddenly, and he looked at Luo Zhi and said, "Soul!"

Luo Zhi said, "What do you mean? Isn't his soul still in his body?"

Gi took out a small bronze mirror and shone it on Luo Yu's body. Sure enough, there was no soul in the small bronze mirror!

It spoke out all the information it had just collected: "His soul right now is fake, it's misleading us! It's really drifted away! Damn it, he's been targeted by bastards!"

The so-called "fake soul" is a forbidden technique in the underworld, which can make ghosts very few. It can take away people's souls, but there is no sign of abnormality, as if the person is just sleeping.

If the forbidden technique is not lifted within three days, the victim will eventually die.

In the past, many evil spirits secretly learned the art and then went to cause trouble in the human world.

"It will be fine as long as we find his soul within three days. Let's start looking now. He just fell unconscious and he is probably still nearby." Gi put away the small bronze mirror and said.

Luo Zhi squatted on the ground and didn't move. He looked at Gi and said, "This forbidden technique can only be performed when a ghost is nearby, right?"

Gi was stunned. He actually neglected the most important thing.

In that case, from the time they entered Chishan until now, a ghost has been following them silently!

Gi looked at Wang Sanpao who was at a loss. It was a first-grade spiritual weapon cast by the Ghost King at a cost of 6,000. It was unwilling to believe that there was a ghost following them and it had not noticed it at all.

Wang Sanpao felt that he was really wronged. He was splashed with dirty water for no reason. He quickly said:

"It's not me! I didn't do anything! If you don't believe me, strip me naked and check me. I'm really just a poor little thing that just got out of the red rain. Please don't suspect everything about me. It's hard enough that I was dragged here by you for no reason."

"Besides, Luo Yu is the young master's man. Even if I had ten thousand guts, I wouldn't dare to touch him."

"It's not him." Luo Zhi suddenly spoke.

Wang Sanpao stuck out his tongue and was about to faint.

"How can you be sure?" Gi asked.

Luo Zhi put Luo Yu down gently on the ground and said, "It's too ridiculous to say that someone was being followed without even noticing." He walked towards Wang Sanpao.

With a whoosh, Wang Sanpao's pants were pulled down, and the snake bite mark on the lower left side of the stick was emitting a strange green light.

"Oh my god!" Wang Sanpao was shocked. He looked at the bite mark that glowed green and said tremblingly, "Master, is my stick okay?"

"Hey." Gi looked at his lower body with an ambiguous look in his eyes. "I didn't expect that you look so young, but you have such lush hair."

Wang Sanpao grabbed the stick fiercely, his face flushed as he cursed, "You pervert!"

Luo Zhi ignored Wang Sanpao's words, but destroyed the tracking trace of Wang Sanpao, stood up and looked around. Like Gi, he was unwilling to believe that he was being followed without realizing it.

He said to Gi, "Find out if there are any cases where the rotten eggs can be controlled by ghosts besides being extremely poisonous."

Gi received the order and began searching the database. Within a minute, he suddenly said, "Yes! Ghosts with high magical powers can control them to commit crimes! But it consumes a lot of spiritual energy."

"So, in that case, it was the egg that caused it? There's no ghost following us at all!" Gi said this and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

It continued, "That's not right. Does Luoyu have an enemy here? Or has he offended someone recently?"

Luo Zhi looked at Luo Yu lying on the ground and shook his head, saying, "Both of your guesses are untrue."

Gi frowned.

Wang Sanpao was listening intently when an idea suddenly occurred to him. He pointed at Luo Zhi and shouted, "It's coming for you!"

Gi was stunned, his face a little deflated.

Luo Zhi nodded, glanced at him, and said, "Put on your pants."

Luo Zhi continued, "Let's ignore this issue that's coming to me for now. Let's go find Luo Yu's soul first."

Gi said: "Then you do it."

Luo Zhi squatted beside Luo Yu, but his outstretched hand stopped in mid-air and did not move for a long time.

Seeing this, Gi shook his head and said, "Human lives are at stake now, and time is running out. Even if you're reluctant, you still have to cut it up. Otherwise, how can I search for it?"

Luo Zhi closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Then a dagger appeared in his hand, and he made up his mind.

With two swish sounds, he cut off a five-centimeter piece of flesh, and blood gushed out like a rapid waterfall.

Luo Zhi threw the piece of meat to Gi, and then quickly injected repairing spiritual power into Luo Zhi's arm with exposed bones.

Gi took the bloody piece of meat and smelled it, showing a disgusted expression, and finally opened his mouth and swallowed it.

Wang Sanpao watched this scene, his whole body falling down, his face filled with fear, and he trembled as he said, "You...you guys...are you going to...eat Luo Yu?"

Gi was searching for Luo Yu's soul through the aura within his body. Upon hearing this, he interrupted and cursed, "You pervert! Can you just eat people casually? If you keep saying that, I'll stew you!"

He turned to look at Luo Zhi who was still performing the repair spell on Luo Yu and said, "Master, there is no need to waste your spiritual energy now. He is in a coma and cannot feel any pain."

Luo Zhi didn't listen and didn't even raise his eyes.

Gi closed his eyes and continued searching in his mind.

Scenes of strange rocks in Chishan kept flashing through its mind: a group of rotten eggs wrapped in moldy webs, dry grass covered with brown sticky liquid, countless giant ant pits, a group of spiders weaving webs, and dead trees dancing with their branches waving... Finally, the picture froze on a mountain road.
