Chapter 688: The Infinite Trap
"Hu Zi... is dead?"
I stared at the motionless body of Hu Zi tied to the bronze pillar, and my eyes began to tremble violently.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible, isn't Hu Zi in Guo Village? How is it possible, how is it possible for him to appear here?" At
this moment, my heart seemed to be grabbed by someone, as if it was about to stop beating. The grief was like a thousand-pound boulder pressing heavily on my chest, making it difficult for me to breathe.
"Hu Zi, Hu Zi..."
Tears flowed from the corners of my eyes, I gritted my teeth, and dug my hands into the bloody mud.
At this moment, I was so powerless that I could only watch my best brother die in front of me, but I could do nothing!
This feeling of powerlessness was like a knife, constantly cutting my flesh and stabbing my heart, making me almost die in pain.
"This must not be true, it is absolutely not true!" I gritted my teeth and roared at the sky.
But at this moment, I suddenly heard a voice again.
"Qian Yu!"
This was a woman's weak voice, and this voice was so familiar to me. When it rang at this moment, my heart was shocked.
I turned my head suddenly, and then I saw that in another direction, there were actually three people hanging in the air.
One of the women was... Chu Jiu!
"Chu... Chu Jiu!?" My eyes trembled, and the whole person seemed to be struck by lightning. I stayed where I was, unable to move.
"Qianyu, save me..." Chujiu bit her lips, her face full of pain. In the corners of her eyes, two lines of crystal clear tears slowly flowed down, and finally gathered at her chin and slowly dripped down.
"Chujiu, you, how could you be here, how could this happen, how could this happen, this is impossible, impossible..."
I was crazy, struggling desperately, trying to get out of this bloody quagmire.
But this bloody quagmire seemed to have suction, no matter how I struggled, I couldn't get out, and my body even began to slowly sink with my fierce struggle.
In the end, I could only wave my arms, helplessly furious, and screaming!
"Qian Yu..."
Chujiu was covered in blood, looking at me with a weak face, and this call seemed to be her farewell to me. After she finished speaking, her head slowly drooped down, and then she was motionless.
"No, no, don't be like this..." Tears flowed down the corners of my eyes. At this moment, I could no longer control my emotions. The tears seemed to burst the dam and could not be stopped at all.
Watching the woman I love most and the closest brother die in front of my own eyes, this feeling is more painful than cutting flesh with a knife. That kind of pain goes deep into the bone marrow and makes people unable to control themselves!
"Qian Yu..."
Suddenly, another voice rang, and this voice came from the other two people hanging beside Chujiu.
I turned my head tremblingly, looking at her in astonishment, and then I found that the one hanging on the other side of Chujiu was... my senior sister, Zhang Yingchun!
She was still the big girl I remembered when she had just left the village, with two long braids, wearing a flowery cotton jacket, like a tomboy, with firmness written all over her face.
But at this moment, under her firm look, she hid deep pain and fatigue. She slowly raised her head and looked at me, whispering: "Qianyu, why did you come just now, senior sister is in so much pain..."
"Qianyu, your master... may not be able to hold on! Alas!"
Suddenly, another sigh came out, I looked tremblingly, and found that the voice was actually from my master!
The three people hanging in the air were Chujiu, Senior Sister, and my Master! Oh
my God!
At this moment, I had forgotten my sorrow, my heartache, and even my breathing. I just stood there in the bloody quagmire, staring at the three people with my eyes wide open and shaking all over.
"Master, Senior Sister..." I uttered these words with difficulty while moving my mouth. Then, I felt a pain in my heart and a sweetness in my throat. A mouthful of blood rushed straight into my throat, and I spat it out with a "wow".
"Master, Senior Sister, I, I... I can't save you!"
I gritted my teeth and tried not to cry out loud, but my shaking shoulders and tears on my face had already betrayed me.
My eyes were blurred by tears, but I still raised my head and looked at my master.
I saw that my master was wearing an old Taoist robe, with messy hair stuck to his face by blood, which made him look indescribably ferocious.
However, his eyes were already flashing with determination!
"Qian Yu!" The master suddenly spoke, and uttered my name in a thunderous voice.
I was shocked and looked at him in astonishment, with a blank look in my eyes.
But then, the master's expression suddenly changed, no longer firm, but evil.
And the previous Qian Yu was as if it was his last struggle!
"Qian Yu!" Suddenly, the senior sister also raised her head and called out my name with a firm face.
"Qian Yu!"
"Qian Yu!"
Chujiu and Huzi also raised their heads at this moment. They all looked at me fixedly and shouted my name.
Then, their voices gathered together and began to repeat my name over and over again.
"Qian Yu Qian Yu Qian Yu Qian Yu..."
Their voices intertwined and gathered together, forming a very strange timbre, and I was shocked, and a look of enlightenment burst out from my eyes.
"This is not real!"
I was suddenly shocked, and shouted in surprise: "This is definitely not real, I know, this is an illusion, this is an illusion!"
After I roared, whether it was my master, senior sister, Chujiu, or Huzi, their eyes suddenly changed, becoming lifeless and full of evil.
They all looked at me intently, and finally, they all grinned and laughed at me.
"Hehehe!..."
Their laughter was so fierce and evil. When it sounded, a strong ghost energy suddenly erupted from their bodies.
As the ghost energy erupted, their appearance changed.
Veins popped out on their faces, and their eyes turned blood red...
They were actually several old ghosts!
"Hehehe, I see your heart. It turns out that the people you care about most are these people!"
A deep voice suddenly came from the air. That voice seemed to be emitted by the master of this world. As the voice sounded, the ghost energy around them began to stir, as if making way for him.
"Do you feel the fear of death and the pain of losing your loved ones?" The deep voice sounded again, and then a tall, ghost-like figure suddenly emerged from the ghost energy.
This was the half-step ghost king who slapped me before!
"This is my ghost den, called the Purgatory Hell. Here, I can make you feel the pain of losing your loved ones forever, and let you sink into the fear of death forever. Hehe, do you know how many people who think they are highly skilled in Taoism have sunk into my ghost den?"
His voice was full of pride, and his face was full of pride.
It felt as if he was really the God who dominated everything.
However, here, in his ghost den, he really could dominate everything.
"There have been many people who refused to surrender after entering the Incubation Land. Among these people, there are many top masters in the righteous way, and even some murderous demons in the evil way. Although these people are different in good and evil, they are equally strong-willed. But in the end, they all sank into my purgatory, and finally, they were trained by me to become puppets that obey my orders. Hehe, the ghost mother likes these puppets very much, because they are very obedient and fun. Do you want to try it too?"
I didn't say anything, but just gritted my teeth and stared at him.
Although I already knew that everything that happened just now was fake and an illusion, I felt the grief like a knife piercing my heart.
Especially, Hu Zi's screams, Chu Jiu's helpless eyes, Senior Sister's unwillingness, and Master's sighs, are still lingering in my mind at this moment, and can't be shaken off!
"Hehe, it seems that your bones are very hard, I want to see how long you can be hard!" He laughed, and then continued: "Although the Ghost King does not allow us to kill you, he did not say that I can't torture you. Come, continue to feel the pain of your loved ones dying in front of you, continue... Feel the helpless despair! Ahahaha..."
As his wild laughter came out, the fierce ghost image he condensed dissipated with a "whoosh", and then, Hu Zi's screams, as well as Chu Jiu, Senior Sister and Master's calls, once again echoed from this weird ghost den! "
It's all fake, all fake!"
I covered my ears, gritted my teeth, and screamed loudly.
The next moment, I suddenly remembered what my master had taught me.
"Qian Yu, the so-called practice is the process of constantly sharpening the heart of Tao, sticking to the original heart, not being confused by external things, no matter how great the hardship is, you must maintain a sincere heart!"
The words of the master kept echoing in my ears.
And I finally raised my head suddenly and let out a long roar!
"Stick to the original heart, don't be confused by external things..."
I screamed, and then, I pulled my arm out of the bloody quagmire with difficulty and spread out my palm.
In my palm, a talisman was wrinkled by me. At this moment, as I opened my palm, the talisman immediately shook and made a crisp sound of "bang".
Then, I heard a muffled sound of "bang" from my body. It was the blocked Qi that was finally aroused by me.
"I don't care what kind of hell you are, no matter what kind of ghost you are, today, I want you to die!"
I stared with my eyes, with a fierce look on my face.
Then, I clenched my palm suddenly, holding the talisman tightly in my palm, and said in a fierce voice: "This talisman... can suppress infinite evil spirits!"
