Chapter 169: The Mirror Completely Leaving The Grave Soil
Endless Graveyard.
Luo Qian leaned against a tombstone, his brows slightly furrowed.
“Wanting to turn those three kids into his playthings, that old thing, even dead he’s still so improper.”
This terrifying old man, borrowing the graveyard, cast his gaze into that bizarre, true-and-false intermixed, inverted world.
He took another look at that red-and-white figure.
“You’ve had arrangements in place for a while, huh.”
Luo Qian’s gaze shifted slightly.
Suddenly, he seemed to see a figure, but upon closer inspection, there was nothing.
“Weird, what the hell is this thing?”
“Why does it feel off?”
Although it felt somewhat off, Luo Qian still didn’t intervene.
After all, those three little guys were very strong.
Moreover, he didn’t know where Lin Qian, that little bastard, got that thing placed on his forehead.
If Zhang Dong saw this, who knows how much it would make Zhang Dong’s teeth ache.
Just thinking of that scene, Luo Qian revealed a smile.
That old guy had been invincible his whole life, yet he suffered such a big loss at the hands of a ghost hand.
Although he erased that ghost, he still lost one eye.
However, it was said that at the time he seemed to have lost two.
Luo Qian stroked his chin, “One or two?”
In his memory, it was one, but he once seemed to hear Xiao Dong mention it was a pair.
Whatever, it doesn’t matter, he lost them anyway, he’ll remember this for life.
When he died, he’d at least engrave this on that old guy’s tombstone.
When old, thoughts easily wander.
Most thoughts are recalling past hardships.
Occasionally recalling joys that make one smile.
But only occasionally.
“To detain the source ghost, you must be in the same mirror as that ghost.”
“If not in the same mirror, you’ll never be able to touch the other party, only be attacked by them.”
“But be careful, the source ghost can freely travel through the mirrors, every mirror is its ghost domain.”
“Connect all the mirrors, let all the mirrors link together, then you can touch the source ghost and detain it.”
“Of course, this will be very dangerous, the mirror you’re currently in only has one or two ghosts detained.”
“When all mirrors are connected, all the ghosts inside the mirrors will appear.”
“Be careful of inversion.”
Lin Qian stared at the words formed by mud on the ground.
He silently recited them in his heart.
“Who are you?”
Lin Qian stroked his chin, pondering this reminder of unknown truth.
“How long has it been since the Endless Graveyard incident? You don’t know who I am?”
New words immediately appeared on the mud.
Upon seeing the meaning conveyed by these words, Lin Qian’s eyes lit up.
“Old Master Luo, got so much free time to check here?”
“How about coming over to play?”
“We three juniors can’t beat this old senior here, how about you come help out and one-shot him?”
Lin Qian said.
The meaning was simple: they’re not up to it, Old Master Luo, you are, come take a look and one-shot him.
Saving these juniors from messing around blindly.
Lin Qian expectantly looked at the ground.
“Hmph~!”
No words appeared on the ground, but a cold snort sounded.
“Solve the trouble you caused yourself.”
“It was easiest at the start, just enter that wooden house, hide the mirror inside, that ghost wouldn’t find that mirror, naturally no opportunity to come out.”
“But you didn’t, not only didn’t you, after deep thought later, you directly uncovered the black cloth on a mirror.”
“Currently, the supernatural hasn’t fully broken free from suppression, the supernatural hasn’t affected the outside yet.”
“But when all the mirrors here leave the grave soil, the supernatural will directly invade outside.”
“Then, don’t blame me for not warning you.”
Lin Qian swallowed, “Then how to handle it?”
He hurriedly asked.
Not much time left before the mirror fully pulls out of the grave soil.
The mirror now has at most a bit left in the mud.
“How to handle?”
“Simple, wait for the mirror to pull out, find a red mirror, smash it.”
Lin Qian listened seriously, but after a while, no continuation.
“Smash it, then what?”
Lin Qian asked.
“Then?”
“There’s a then?”
“All mirrors connect together, then the fierce ghost appears, you detain it, done?”
“Really so stupid.”
Lin Qian: “…”
So, this is a flip the table method?
“Alright, good luck on your own.”
A cold wind suddenly blew, the words on the ground weirdly blown away.
What needed reminding has been reminded.
Next depends on how they handle it.
Him reminding is already utmost benevolence.
Lin Qian stood in place, stroking his chin.
“Directly let it incubate fully, then handle together?”
Lin Qian thought this was a good method, simple, no need to think.
But the danger level would be extremely high.
Mirror…
Lin Qian felt this was the strangest supernatural event he’d encountered in his life.
He sighed, shovel in hand, disappeared from the spot in a few steps.
Now, at this moment.
Da Han City.
An old man slowly looked up at the sky.
The faintly discernible ghost domain reflected the entire city like water surface.
The old man narrowed his eyes as if recalling something.
“So it’s you, the maker of the ghost mirror.”
“Thought you died long ago, didn’t expect hiding in the mirror.”
The old man exhaled.
“Big bro, at the critical moment, will you make a move?”
A playful voice sounded.
Hearing this voice, the old man seemed extremely helpless, “Can you go play by yourself?”
“Don’t keep swaying in front of me, aren’t you going to Da Han City?”
“You can set off now.”
As the old man’s words fell, that voice discontentedly rang out, “Big bro, what do you mean?”
“No meaning, just literal.”
The old man said.
“Tch, if you don’t wanna see me just say so, spouting bullshit.”
The old man fell silent, simply turned and disappeared from the spot.
“Tch, boring.”
“…”
“Liu Ping, tell me, what do you think is the normal way to handle a fierce ghost?”
The three sat on the tombstone, not thinking of getting down.
The fierce ghost attacking them seemed to only attack when they stood on the ground.
He and Ye Zhen naturally weren’t afraid of attacks.
But letting the fierce ghost attack freely while they couldn’t attack it, this kind of taking hits, anyone would dislike.
Fang Shiming currently didn’t know what to do.
“Normal way to handle fierce ghosts.”
Liu Ping crouched, stroking his chin, “Should be first determine the fierce ghost’s killing pattern, then its terror level.”
“Then, while avoiding its pattern, detain it.”
“When necessary, use survivors from the supernatural event to probe the fierce ghost’s killing pattern.”
“This is tacitly permitted.”
Fang Shiming listened, nodded, “It’s the headquarters method, no mistake.”
“Then how to handle the ghost here?”
Liu Ping upon hearing, thought, then extremely seriously said, “I think, find a way to escape, then figure it out after going out.”
Very candid statement, encounter a ghost you can’t beat, preserve life first.
This is the correct choice.
Fang Shiming very much agreed.
Ye Zhen pursed his lips, said nothing.
Fang Shiming thought, stood up.
“Let’s go, find Lin Qian, fighting the ghost here is meaningless, can’t handle it, can’t find it.”
Ghost wind rose after Fang Shiming spoke.
The three instantly disappeared from the spot.
At the same time, in the graveyard, a wail-like wind sounded.
Lin Qian pulled the shovel from the ground, suddenly looked up.
“Fang Shiming’s ghost wind.”
Wind howled, in moments Lin Qian sensed someone locked onto him.
Immediately after, three figures appeared.
“Lin Qian, no way to handle it.”
“Ghosts and mirrors encountered along the way are not on our level.”
“My wind covered the entire graveyard, but could only see the source ghost, yet unable to touch.”
Fang Shiming said, “So, our meaning is, how about first find a way to retreat?”
“After all, we’re now in others’ home turf.”
Though their strength was formidable, even S-level fierce ghosts or this place’s source ghost attacking, they could resist, but couldn’t withstand prolonged consumption.
“Best method, but I got the way to resolve this supernatural event.”
The three upon hearing, gazes immediately sharpened.
“The mirrors here were originally buried in grave soil.”
“But with the grave soil’s supernatural disappearing, the mirrors here are gradually pulling out from the grave soil.”
“The moment the mirrors pull out is when this place’s source ghost truly breaks free from suppression.”
“And at that time, we have opportunity to truly contact this place’s fierce ghosts.”
“But the source ghost has an ability, it can shuttle through any mirror.”
“And simultaneously the source ghost has another ability, only when it’s in the same mirror as us, our attacks can affect it.”
“But it can harm us across other mirrors.”
At this point, Fang Shiming and Ye Zhen both fell silent.
Liu Ping didn’t want to speak, he somewhat wanted to lie flat.
“Though very unsolvable, no worry, we also have a way to bring it to our level.”
Lin Qian looked at the silent three, timely said: “When all mirrors leave the grave soil, as long as we find a red mirror and smash it, all mirrors will connect.”
“Then, that ghost will be on our level, our attacks can affect it.”
The three after hearing were even more silent.
In the dim graveyard, mist rose.
Mirrors slowly left the grave soil in the mist.
Four figures stood in the mist, mutually silent.
“Though don’t know where you got this method from.”
“But I can confirm, this is a flip the table method.”
Fang Shiming looked at Lin Qian, “That Ghost Yang Jian?”
Ye Zhen and Liu Ping at this moment both stared at Lin Qian.
Seeing this, Lin Qian immediately knew they suspected his identity.
“Left, Ghost Yang Jian learned all my memories, after confronting me twice, found he couldn’t kill me, determined himself fake.”
“Then he left, saying he wanted to leave here.”
Ye Zhen hearing this, brows slightly furrowed, “Ghost Yang Jian so confident in his strength?”
Confront twice, can’t kill Lin Qian, instantly knows he’s fake.
What level does that Ghost Yang Jian think his strength is?
Confident enough to take down Lin Qian in two confrontations?
Though unclear if Lin Qian speaks truth.
But currently they have no ability to discern if Lin Qian is real or fake.
“Somewhat forced.” Fang Shiming said.
Lin Qian knew verbal words had least convincing power.
Then, he made an action.
Immediately, Fang Shiming and Ye Zhen confirmed the Lin Qian before them was real Lin Qian.
“Per what you said, as long as break that red mirror, all mirrors connect.”
“Then unexpectedly, those fierce ghosts in other mirrors will also gather.”
Fang Shiming said.
This was an extremely dangerous method.
Too many ghosts, and fierce ghosts detained by an old antique.
Whether extremely strange fierce ghosts inside, hard to say, but high probability yes.
“So, gotta go all out.”
Lin Qian’s expression grave, “This method I got, once done, fierce ghosts will invade outside.”
“So, we must detain this place’s source ghost before the ghosts start killing.”
The three upon hearing, immediately realized the severity.
But suddenly Liu Ping’s eyes brightened, “If invade outside, then aren’t we just one ghost domain away from reality?”
This question odd, the three didn’t know what Liu Ping meant.
But Lin Qian thought, “Should be, after all all mirrors connecting, equivalent to countless ghost domains aggregating into one ghost domain.”
Liu Ping licked his lips, “That’s good, that’s good.”
If really so, these days of uncertainty, possible death anytime, about to end soon.
The three looking at excited Liu Ping, somewhat puzzled.
But now not time to think that.
Mirrors about to fully pull out of grave soil.
And they gradually felt unease.
Seemed some terrifying thing about to come out.
At this moment.
In the graveyard, on a tombstone.
A pitch-black figure slowly stood up from the tombstone.
Its posture weird, at the moment of standing, black threads under its butt slowly snapped.
Each snap, the figure’s standing speed faster.
And the graveyard became increasingly eerie and sinister.
“Almost.”
Ye Zhen suddenly said.
Next moment, surrounding mist rapidly rose.
But weirdly, the originally black mist suddenly turned white.
Black mist rapidly swallowed.
White mist like waterfall, surged from all directions.
The four hearts sank.
In blink of eye, white mist directly enveloped them.
And precisely at this moment, the figure on the tombstone fully left the tombstone, stood on the ground.
