Chapter 112: God's Drums startle evil spirits(1/2)
The plague ghost is covered in pustules and rotting, and the plague is scattered...
A drowned ghost with pale skin and blood-red eyes...
The sword-fighting ghost roars and spits poisonous smoke...
A hungry ghost with a needle mouth, hair like basil, claws and nails dancing wildly...
An infant ghost with a head as big as a bucket...
"Dayansou Mountain Picture" records more than 800 kinds of ghosts, most of which are uncommon and can only be born under certain circumstances.
This was the first time for Wang Xuan to see so many kinds.
What's even weirder is that as the military formation approaches the Shanin Ghost City, the shapes of these ghosts become more and more obvious, and some even swell to more than three meters high, dancing with will-o'-the-wisps and roaring loudly.
Da da da da…
At the same time, there was a rapid knocking sound and a wild tune, which was very weird, but combined with the wild dancing of ghosts, it made people feel like they were in the ghost world.
"I'm just singing here!"
Under the banner of the general, Wang Xuan snorted coldly.
Yuan Teng, the opera sect accompanying him, said awkwardly: "Sir, don't be surprised, that is the mechanical sound of the Hundred Ghost Night Walking Lantern, which is a method of using sound to induce hallucinations. That...this magic weapon was originally used to perform illusions."
Wang Xuan was speechless, he didn't expect that he was actually an opera singer.
It was also the first time for the sergeants to see this kind of scene. Although they recited "The Picture of Dayansou Mountain" every night and were well aware of all kinds of evil spirits, seeing it with their own eyes was another matter.
For a while, I couldn't help but feel a little weak in courage.
When the veterans saw it, they immediately shouted angrily:
"I'm afraid of a bird. I forgot how I teach you on weekdays!"
"Ghosts are invisible, and everything you see is illusion..."
"The evil spirit of the military formation can destroy evil spirits, so cheer up!"
After the veterans' reprimands, the situation finally improved.
Wang Xuan's face was calm, and there was no trace of anger in his heart.
Originally, he planned to let the newcomers participate in daily ghost exorcism tasks and train their courage like veterans, but now that the situation is difficult, he can only go directly into battle.
Fortunately, the performance of the veterans satisfied him.
Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Wang Xuan stopped dawdling and said in a deep voice: "Since we are setting up a stage to sing, let's join in the fun."
After saying that, he stretched out his hand.
Behind the general's banner, two sergeants lifted up the red cloth.
The Bahuang Jingshen drum buzzed so much that it suddenly levitated.
Military formation evil weapons all have a special characteristic. As long as the spiritual materials can support them, the more evil energy is injected into them, the greater their power will be.
Previously, when the forty-man military formation was in the eastern mountains, the Bahuang Jingshen Drum had shown extraordinary power, and the military exercises on weekdays were just for show.
Now that the power was fully unleashed, even Wang Xuan was taken aback.
On the drum surface, the three-eyed Taoist has fully appeared, and the blood in his eyes is as thick as fire.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The ground was trembling, transparent ripples wrapped in air waves surging outward, flying sand and rocks along the way. When passing the city wall, those ghosts and monsters that were randomly crawling instantly dissipated.
The Shanyin city wall was originally infected by the strong energy of ghosts, and over time it would turn into a nightmare. But now it was swept by the sound waves of the Bahuang Jingshen drum, and cracks suddenly appeared.
Under the bright moon, the divine drums are beating, ghosts are frightening, and the six armies are in full swing!
Guo Luquan stroked his beard and laughed, "The Eight Desolate Jingshen Drums are indeed the best at killing ghosts."
Wang Xuan's eyes were as cold as stars, and he waved the steel gun in his hand forward, "Enter the city!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Accompanied by a thunderous roar, the Yong'an Prefecture troops entered the city in formation.
There was an eagle cry in the night sky. At this time, in Xiaobai's sharp eagle eyes, Shanyin City, which was originally shrouded in gloomy black clouds, seemed to have been torn open.
In particular, the Bahuang Jingshen Drum was so powerful that the Yin energy was completely shattered and dissipated before it had time to gather together again.
But in the eyes of the soldiers in the military government, it was a different scene.
Wherever the army passed, the streets condensed with cold frost crackled into pieces, and the surrounding buildings were originally filled with ghostly shadows. At this moment, the tiles crashed and fell, and the ghosts disappeared.
After Guo Luquan saw it, he sighed slightly and shook his head.
He is an old man from the Yin Gate. He is used to seeing the suffering of life and death, so when he breaks the ghost hole, he puts the soul first.
But the soldiers are building military formations to conquer and open up a way for the human race, so they don't care about this.
This is the method of practicing hundreds of practices, each of which has its own path.
Of course, the government soldiers did not dare to relax their vigilance.
After entering the city, the scene suddenly changed.
There is moonlight shining outside, but the streets inside are shrouded in mist.
The hundred ghost night lanterns disappeared without a trace after they entered the city, as if there was a pair of sinister eyes in the darkness.
In the direction of the City God's Temple, it was as dark as an abyss.
Wang Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly and asked in a deep voice: "If an important weapon of Dharma is obtained by an evil spirit, will it be more powerful?"
Guo Luquan shook his head and said: "It depends on the situation. If it is the 'Guanshan Scroll' of Shanhai Academy, the 'Glass Nirvana Tower' of Xumi Sect, no evil ghosts dare to approach. If it is the 'Black Jade Coffin' of Taiyin Sect, demons and ghosts will not dare to approach it."
All the corpses are salivating."
Yuan Teng from the Xi Cai Men was silent for a moment: "My master once said that in the Hundred Ghost Night Walking Lantern, the most taboo thing about ghosts holding the lantern is that people watch the show. If you can't consolidate your soul, you will be fascinated by the lantern."
Wang Xuan nodded slightly, understanding in his heart.
It seems that like the Bahuang Jingshen Drum, it is aimed at the soul.
Although there is a military formation for protection, the spirits of the sergeants are not yet stable, and it seems that the Hundred Ghost Night Walking Lantern will be destroyed first...
…
The layout of Shanyin City is not like that of Yongan County.
It is built according to the mountain topography, with the southwest high and the northeast low. The City God's Temple is at the highest point in the south of the city.
But as Guo Luquan said, breaking the ghost cave is like breaking the formation.
After the army entered, they immediately fell into a battle formation. Although the Eight Desolate Gods and Drums were pressing down on the formation, and the demons and monsters did not dare to approach, the terrain had changed.
It was supposed to be a climb, but it turned into a downhill.
Turning a corner, you're back to where you were.
"stop!"
Wang Xuan frowned slightly and waved his hand to stop the military formation.
Although the military formation is powerful, it is supported by the consumption of soldiers' evil spirits.
Most of the soldiers had just introduced evil into their bodies and could not sustain a long-term battle, not to mention the Bahuang Jingshen Drum, which was a big energy consumer.
If you are trapped in this formation for a long time, you will definitely suffer heavy damage in time.
Wang Xuan looked around and said, "Mr. Guo, it seems that the City God's Temple is where the formation's eye is. Can you see through this formation?"
Guo Luquan stroked his beard and frowned, "The direction of the Three Yin Mountains will be reversed. This ghost array is artificially arranged. I am afraid that the key points will be hidden long ago. I will give it a try first."
After saying that, he stood up and jumped out of the military formation.
A coffin nail suddenly appeared in his hand and inserted into the blue brick floor with a clanking sound. He also took out a dozen small paper figures and tied them to the coffin nail with red ropes.
One move, swift and sharp.
Phew~
A dark wind blew, and the paper figures scattered in all directions.
The strange thing is that the red rope seems to be pulling longer and longer, as the paper man flies into the pale mist, but it never stops.
Old Yang in the formation muttered: "This old guy's Qi and blood are declining, but his Yinmen magic skills are becoming more and more dexterous. He is really living like a spirit..."
Guo Luquan naturally didn't hear it and observed carefully.
Every moment, bang bang bang, several red ropes were broken.
Old Man Guo nodded, turned around and entered the military formation, "Sir, I have found out where the portal is. All I need is..."
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly turned around and stared at the street on the left, his eyes full of horror, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
The red rope broke immediately.
"Mr. Guo!"
Wang Xuan quickly dismounted and supported him.
To be continued...
