The relationship between Lao Bai and Lin Mo is very special.

At first, it was just a simple nightmare, with only killing in its mind. Anyone who violated its taboos would be ruthlessly strangled by it. When it saw Lin Mo for the first time, just like seeing other prey, it just wanted to kill him and break his head.

But who could have known that this would be the beginning of a bad relationship.

In Lin Mo's eyes, Lao Bai definitely has obsessive-compulsive disorder and a particularly stubborn personality.

Powerful nightmares often have strong personalities.

Maybe because he had failed to break Lin Mo's neck many times, he became depressed and began to doubt himself and isolate himself.

This period of time is very long.

No one knows what Lao Bai was thinking or what he realized during the year he spent in the toilet.

In short, when Lin Mo went to invite Lao Bai to come out of retirement again, Lao Bai did not refuse.

It has changed in some way.

At first, Lin Mo unilaterally treated it as a friend, but later, it seemed to accept this friendship that transcended race.

From a certain perspective, Walter White has come to terms with it.

It was no longer obsessed with breaking Lin Mo's neck, because it had only thought of one thing in the past year. Since Lin Mo's neck could not be broken, why should it be obsessed with it?

This is what is called letting go.

But it could let go of Lin Mo's neck, but it would not let go of others.

Especially the enemies.

"Old Bai, how did you get injured like this?" Lin Mo frowned and looked distressed.

This time, Lao Bai was really seriously injured.

The skin and flesh had been turned inside out in many parts of his body, exposing the bones. In some places, there were pieces of flesh missing. If he were a normal person, he would have died long ago.

As Lin Mo spoke, he walked over, straightened the protruding rib on Lao Bai's chest, and stuffed it back.

As for the injuries elsewhere, he had no idea where to start.

But Walter White seemed to be very indifferent.

It was as if the injury was not on it.

Just this calmness and composure shows the style of a great general.

Seeing that Lao Bai was really fine and the wounds on his body were recovering quickly, Lin Mo felt relieved and began to inquire about the situation while staring at the head in Lao Bai's hand.

The head still had a small section of spine attached to it, and it was covered in blood. It looked like after Old Bai broke the man's neck, he pulled hard and ripped off the head along with part of the spine.

This power is truly terrifying.

Lin Mo looked at it carefully.

"It's the head of the Red Lantern Ghost."

Lao Bai can't speak and Xiaoyu can only write, so Sister Yue has to dictate.

She gave a general account of the situation.

In short, there were many enemies on the city wall and the battle situation was extremely dangerous, so it was not easy for them to retreat.

"It's very dangerous here. I suggest we retreat quickly." Sister Yue's tone was serious. Lin Mo was very surprised and said that this was not like your character. In the past, when you encountered problems, you would just do it directly and would never be vague.

Sister Yue smiled, revealing a horrific wound on her arm.

She was also injured.

Where's Xiaoyu? Lin Mo took a look, and Sister Yue said directly: "You are such a heartless thing, you only care about your Xiaoyu... She is fine, the power of the black skirt is very strong, and it resisted all the attacks for her."

"Sister, you misunderstood. I care about you too." Lin Mo went over to look at the wound on Sister Yue's arm, which looked like it was cut by some sharp weapon.

Black gas continued to emerge from the skin and flesh.

"I've seen this kind of monster before." Lin Mo looked down at the head in Lao Bai's hand. Even though the head and body were separated, the eyes of the head were still open, staring at Lin Mo.

Last time in Lvyuan Community, Lin Mo glanced at the other person through the glass.

I didn't see it clearly at the time, but I felt that the figure holding the red lantern was very scary and could easily crush me to death.

At that time, Lin Mo felt that one day he would encounter this kind of thing again.

In the current situation, Lao Bai, Sister Yue and Xiao Yu joined forces, and although they killed a red lantern ghost, they also suffered losses.

Therefore, it is best to stay out of the spotlight for now and figure out the situation first.

Lin Mo did not hesitate and planned to retreat first.

At this moment, red lanterns suddenly lit up around them, in all directions, surrounding them.

Lin Mo's heart sank, knowing that he couldn't escape.

There were bursts of strange noises coming from the distance.

It's a bit like the sound of armor rubbing against each other and weapons colliding.

The situation is a bit bad.

You have to know that these monsters have bows and arrows and can attack from a distance. If they are shot at with arrows at this moment, how do you respond?

Lin Mo felt that he should have run away earlier so that he wouldn't be stuck here.

But the surrounding monsters did not attack.

If you surround someone without attacking, there must be an agenda.

Sure enough, a sinister voice was heard from afar: "You are so evil and daring. Why don't you release General Zheng Qian?"

Mr. Zheng? Put it back? Lin Mo looked at the head in Lao Bai's hand.

We just happened to make eye contact.

You look at me and I look at you.

Eyes met.

Lin Mo squatted down. He could see that the head was still alive. This strange thing would not die even if its head and body were separated.

After looking for a while, Lin Mo asked, "Mr. Zheng Qian?"

The head snorted coldly.

It's considered an admission.

Good fellow! Lin Mo stood up and patted Lao Bai on the shoulder.

"Old Bai, you are so awesome. You actually captured their leader. You have done a great job."

Lin Mo was very happy.

That way, they have the cards in their hand.

No wonder the strange monsters around didn't rush over. It turned out that Lao Bai went straight to the core and twisted the opponent's "king"'s head off.

Can.

This was a blessing in disguise.

The other party was just trying to persuade us to surrender, and although his tone was tough, he was cautious.

There was thick fog all around and I could only see the lights of many red lanterns. I couldn't tell how many monsters there were, but there must be quite a few.

And as far as we know, the other party has weapons.

Bow and arrow.

And swords.

The wounds on Lao Bai and Sister Yue were caused by being hacked with sharp weapons.

Lin Mo asked Sister Yue, and Sister Yue said that the monsters she saw were indeed wearing armor and holding swords, a bit like ancient soldiers.

Combined with what the other party had just said, a ridiculous idea immediately popped up in Lin Mo's mind.

This group of weirdos is organized, like a group of ancient soldiers.

The leader was 'Zheng Qianzong' in Lao Bai's hand. Qianzong seemed to be a kind of military officer in ancient times. Lin Mo forgot the details, but he was probably right about it.

Now the other side has the advantage in numbers, and if a fight really breaks out, Lin Mo's side will definitely suffer.

However, because of Lao Bai's sudden attack just now, a melee broke out and the opponent's "leader"'s head was chopped off. Now he has bargaining chips.

So we can’t fight next, we have to talk.

Fighting is disadvantageous to our side.

Lin Mo had already thought about it in his mind. He shouted at the top of his voice: "Your General Zheng Qian is fine. Come and talk to someone."

Lin Mo glanced at General Zheng Qian again. The other party had a fierce look in his eyes, showing a ten thousand unwillingness to accept it. But seeing that he looked so energetic, he guessed that nothing would happen.

It's just moving your head to a new place.

Small scene.

It can be seen that this 'General Zheng Qian' should be of a very high status, because the other party actually sent a 'person' to negotiate.

After the other party came, he knelt on one knee facing the head in Lao Bai's hand and said a lot of things.

It has a very ancient style and some parts are hard to understand, but the general meaning is something like the subordinates are incompetent and have caused trouble for the masters.

Lin Mo told him not to be impulsive, otherwise he would make General Zheng Qian into a paste if he did anything wrong, and then asked about the origins of these strange things.

Who knew that the other party would snort coldly.

"We are guarding the Heavenly City, and you have trespassed into the forbidden area. How dare you question us?"

Lin Mo thought about it and it was true.

They are indeed staying here peacefully. From their perspective, we are the invaders.

"Even if we are outsiders, why can't we talk it out peacefully? Why do we have to use knives and guns right away?" Lin Mo has never lost an argument.

If you have a reason, you can argue; if you have no reason, you can still make trouble.

The other party snorted coldly and did not answer.

It’s no wonder that this situation reminded Lin Mo of the ghost town under the abandoned mine in the eastern suburbs.

The 'soldier ghost' at the gate of the ghost town is somewhat similar to the other party.

There are taboos for the soldier ghosts at the gate of the ghost town.

That is, you cannot force your way in or cause trouble, otherwise you will be immediately killed by the soldiers and ghosts within the city gate, and there will be no chance of escape.

Lin Mo felt that it would be more appropriate to call these strange things "ghost soldiers" instead.

More organized and have considerable thinking and judgment abilities.

I don’t know about other things, but this ghost soldier who negotiated with me was like this: cunning, and with a bottom line.

"Before he left, the Heavenly Master issued an order that anyone who enters the Heavenly City without permission will be killed!"

This is the answer to Lin Mo’s question just now.

The problem is, who knows who the "Heavenly Master" the other party is talking about.

When asked, the other party always calls you "God of War". Most of the time it's not that you can't get the answer, but that the other party simply doesn't know.

After some bargaining, Lin Mo agreed to return "General Zheng Qian" to them, but the other party must not attack again. Of course, the other party still did not agree to Lin Mo and his team entering this "Heavenly City".

If you don't agree, these ghost soldiers will fight to the death.

Lin Mo agreed.

I couldn't disagree, was it really going to end in a fight that would hurt both of us? I had to get out of this unscathed first, and then make plans.

When handing over, Lin Mo suddenly remembered something and asked, "Is Liu Jia in the city?"

The ghost soldier raised his head and glanced at Lin Mo: "Yes, what's wrong?"

"Liu Jia and I are friends."

"really?"

"Absolutely true!"

"May I ask your name, sir?"

"Lin Mo!"

"Mr. Lin, please wait a moment. I will send my men to ask."

The ghost soldier called over a subordinate holding a red lantern and whispered something in his ear. The subordinate immediately floated into the city.

Is this possible?

Lin Mo was also stunned.

Could it be that there was light at the end of the tunnel? Could it be that there was a sudden turn of events? Needless to say, Lin Mo was actually a little excited at the moment.

He knew that Liu Jia was in the city; the paper crane flying towards them proved that.

But he didn't expect that these ghost soldiers actually knew Liu Jia.

Apparently, the relationship is pretty good.

This is a bit unbelievable.

It has only been four days since Liu Jia tracked the ascetic monk into the second level of dreamland. How could he have made a new friend so quickly? Lin Mo asked the ghost soldier, who only said to wait until Liu Jia arrived.

He still seemed a little unconvinced.

This time he waited for more than ten minutes. In Lin Mo's opinion, it was definitely the longest ten minutes he had ever waited in his life.

After a while, someone riding a black horse came from a distance.

The sound of horse hooves.

Looking more closely, the man on the horse was none other than Liu Jia.

Lin Mo simply didn't know what to say.

This situation seemed to be different from what he had imagined.

In his mind, it would not be surprising if Liu Jia fell into crisis, was kidnapped, or was killed. At that time, he would cry bitterly, turn his grief into strength, and then swear to avenge Liu Jia and work hard for it.

But he never expected that after a fierce battle with these terrifying ghost soldiers and his life was hanging by a thread, he actually discovered that if he had only reported Liu Jia's name at the beginning, all this could have been avoided.

The black horse ran very fast and soon came close. Liu Jia jumped off the horse and glanced at Lin Mo.

You can see that she has joy on her face.

"Lin Mo, how did you get in?"

What she asked was how to enter the second level of dreams, which Lin Mo understood.

Lin Mo did not answer, but asked in return: "What's going on?"

Liu Jia also understood what Lin Mo meant.

"This is a long story. Come on, come on, let's go to the city first. Once you come here, you're home... Hey, Mr. Zheng, what happened to you? How did someone rip your head off? You look like a carrot head."

Or rather, Liu Jia has a mean mouth.

Mr. Zheng Qian was already feeling aggrieved enough, and now he was dragged out and whipped again. He simply closed his eyes, said nothing, and let whoever wanted to do it do it.

Next, Liu Jia really brought them into this "heavenly city".

The ghost soldiers did not stop them.

Inside the city gate stood a bloody, headless corpse.

Judging from the wounds, this should be the body of General Zheng Qian.

Lin Mo took the head from Lao Bai, then walked over solemnly and put Mr. Zheng Qian's head back.

"Look at what this has caused, Mr. Zheng Qian. I'm really sorry. What can I say? The main reason is that we didn't know we were a family at the beginning. So, I'm sorry to you, and let's forget about this matter. What do you think? As the saying goes, there is no acquaintance without fighting. From now on, we are brothers. As brothers, we won't mention this matter anymore, okay?"

After Lin Mo recovered, he felt something was wrong no matter how he looked at it.

I discovered that the head was placed upside down.

"It's my fault, it's mainly because I'm not skilled enough. Next time, I will definitely install it properly for you."

General Zheng Qian didn't say a word from beginning to end.

A pair of eyes filled with anger, and a hint of helplessness and grievance.

Lin Mo said that if you don’t say anything, it means you agree.

Liu Jia pulled Lin Mo away.

In her words, if you keep looking for death like this, I won't be able to save my dignity.

The city is gloomy.

However, there are pedestrians, restaurants and other businesses.

However, anyone with a discerning eye can see that these pedestrians are ghosts.

Liu Jia took Lin Mo to a restaurant and found a private room for them to sit in.

At this moment, Xiaoyu has returned to the pencil and Sister Yue has turned back into a doll.

They have a tacit understanding.

Try to hide as much as possible when Liu Jia is around.

Out of sight, out of mind.

Only Lao Bai was still standing behind Lin Mo, working diligently.

"Jia Jia, what's going on?" Lin Mo couldn't help but ask. He was extremely curious now.

Happy Dragon Boat Festival everyone!
