C167 ambushing

I followed behind them for a while and quickly understood that Mr. Zhao and the rest were probably tricked by someone. This other one was obviously a dead man in the basement. It was unknown when this dead man had gotten among them, but he was pretending to be a candle as he directed them everywhere.

We watched as we walked further and further away. If we continued like this, we might be lured into the encirclement. I couldn't hold it in any longer, so I reached out and grabbed the dead man's shoulder.

The dead man shuddered and turned his head abruptly. I saw his features, almost exactly like mine, as if I were looking in a mirror.

This feeling is too weird. I couldn't help but feel a chill run down my spine. Fortunately, I managed to suppress my fear and stabbed the dead man.

The moment the dead man saw me, he looked flustered, and when I took out my dagger, he screamed, and then his flesh fell off and turned into a pile of bones, which then disappeared in the wind.

I looked at the black ground in a daze. There was nothing here anymore.

Erhu lit another half of the candle and looked at me strangely. I looked at the others, and they looked at me strangely.

I coughed and said to Mr. Zhao, "You have been tricked. That thing just now was actually a dead person."

Mr. Zhao said, "We know."

I said, "Since it's like this, don't try to put on an act. If you knew about this, would you have been scammed by others? "

foster-grandpa looked at me awkwardly. "We really do know."

If even the foster-grandpa said that, then they really did know that there was a problem with the dead man. Thus, I asked awkwardly, "What happened?"

According to Mr. Zhao, we were supposed to search for the child's corpse together. I was halfway there when I blew the candle. The surroundings instantly turned pitch black. When the candle was lit again, I was lying on the ground, apparently unconscious.

After Mr. Zhao and the rest woke me up, I started babbling nonsense, saying that I was too scared, so I was a little nervous. Then he lit candles and led them around.

After walking for a while, foster-grandpa realised that I was fake. Because when we left, he secretly stuffed a coin into my pocket, and as for the mother money, it was hidden on foster-grandpa's body. So foster-grandpa knows where I am.

Initially, he wanted to capture this impersonator, but Mr. Zhao told him not to alert the enemy. Mr. Zhao started to act, and continued to trick the dead man.

In the end, he found out from the dead person that the location of the Yama Temple was arranged according to a battlefield from ancient times. As long as he knew the exact location of the battlefield, he would be able to walk out in the dark.

Mr. Zhao guessed that this dead person was the soldier from back then, so he kept asking about the location of the battlefield. Just as he was about to pinpoint his exact position, I appeared and scared the soldiers away.

Hearing Mr. Zhao's words, I felt a little awkward. I could only cough and change the subject. "I have the child's corpse. What do I do now?"

The Mr. Zhao said, "Let's go forward first. Although the position of the exit is not confirmed, it should be close enough. At most, when we get to our seats, everyone will look for it together. "

On the way there, I told him everything that had happened. Mr. Zhao chuckled and said that I was the friend of a woman.

I say, do you know what a friend is? If you don't understand, then don't use it carelessly.

Mr. Zhao took out his amnesia shield.

The few of us spoke lightly, but our hearts were heavy. Because if we're going to leave here, we have to take the child's body with us, or the prisoners won't let us go. Although we don't intend to go to hell and directly leave this place, we should be aware of our every move.

However, if we leave with the child's body, that would be equivalent to releasing the Ghost Prisoner. This fellow's stomach was filled with hatred. If he really were to return to the human world, who knows what kind of storm it would create?

I sighed, unable to hold it in, and finally told the others. Xia Xin comforted me, "Don't worry. The first thing they would do after getting out of prison would be to seek revenge in Hades. When that time comes, they will beat the crap out of us, and perhaps we will perish together. We can just watch from the side. "

I looked at Xia Xin in bewilderment, "Aren't you from the Underworld? Why do you look so happy when both Hades and Ghost Hell suffered injuries? "

Xia Xinbai let out a few hollow laughs, then stopped talking to me.

During the journey, I saw Erhu always looking like he wanted to say something but hesitated. Finally, he came to my side and whispered, "Is the matter of your physical body considered?"

Only then did I remember. I promised Erhu that if I could escape from here, I would give my body to him.

I was happy when I promised him, but now I can't bear to. Mr. Zhao was very generous, he said to Erhu: "Alright, I'll lend this body to you."

I said to the Mr. Zhao, "Is this body yours? You're so generous. "

Mr. Zhao had a cheap smile on his face: "If it were me, I definitely wouldn't be so generous."

Just as I was about to find an excuse to reject Erhu, foster-grandpa also said on the side, "Since he has promised, then just give him your body."

I looked at foster-grandpa with a little surprise. foster-grandpa was a good person, but he was definitely not a good person who would acknowledge him as having suffered a loss. Did he have a deep meaning for me to give my body to Erhu?

When foster-grandpa saw me look over, he smiled at me and then lightly shook his head, signalling me not to ask any more questions.

With foster-grandpa's attitude, I felt reassured in my heart. Then I said to Erhu, "Alright, when we leave, this physical body will be yours."

Erhu immediately laughed. Then all of us were tortured by Erhu. He began to think about what he would do when he had a physical body. How to find a partner, how to get married, how to set up a banquet...

I almost vomited when I heard that, but when I turned my head around, I realized that Mr. Zhao had actually taken a small notebook, and was seriously memorizing Erhu's wish …

I feel that the number of normal people in the world has decreased recently.

I was ridiculing Mr. Zhao when I suddenly heard Xia Xin ask, "Are you tired while carrying this corpse?"

I said, "I'm not tired, but I feel quite unlucky."

Xia thought for a moment, then said: "How about I help you?"

I was overjoyed. "Sure." But I was a little hesitant to ask a girl to help me carry my things, which seemed a little too much.

Xia Xin said, "Anyway, I'm a live corpse, so there's nothing to be afraid of while carrying a dead person. Furthermore, this child looks like he's only around 10 jin, he's not heavy at all. "

Seeing how eager she was to experience it, I put the baby in Xia Xin's hands.

Xia Xin carried the child on her back for a short while before Mr. Zhao stopped and said to us, "We're here."

I looked at the dark surroundings and saw that there seemed to be no way out, so I asked Mr. Zhao in bewilderment, "This is it? How do we get out? "

The Mr. Zhao said, "The soldier told us that this is the outermost region of the battlefield, where a group of ambushing soldiers is hiding. Even if the ambushers died, they still kept to their duties. As long as we break into the ambush, we can see the exit. "

I said, "How many are there?"

The Mr. Zhao said, "Not many. Three thousand people."

I asked, "Three thousand evil spirits?"

Mr. Zhao acknowledged.

I smiled wryly and said, "Are you kidding? Can we win against three thousand evil spirits? "

The Mr. Zhao said, "We have to try. If we can't do it, we'll just go back and have the Ghastly Prisoner send us out. But when the time comes, I don't know if the Ghost Prison will admit it or not, or if he will just casually leave us behind. "

The few of us whispered to each other for a while before we came to a consensus. Compared to the three thousand wraiths, the Ghost Hell seemed to be even more terrifying.

The Mr. Zhao said with a smile, "We need a person to scout our path. Erhu, do you mind taking the lead? "

Erhu scolded, "You're going to die, why am I always in the lead?"

Mr. Zhao pointed at me and said, "Is my Eldest Nephew's body obtained for free?"

Erhu left while cursing.

foster-grandpa asked me puzzledly: "Did you find your biological parents? Why does this Mr. Zhao keep on calling you Eldest Nephew? "

I pointed at my own head and said to foster-grandpa, "He has some problems here, ignore him."

We had not waited a quarter of an hour when Erhu came running back screaming. Behind him, the darkness was like a flood, rolling up dozens of feet.

I saw the darkness gathering together and charging towards me in a threatening manner. It was as if they had turned into objects. After they hit the ground, even the black floor tiles seemed to shatter.

"I saw the ambush," said Erhu, coming up breathlessly. The ambushers saw me too. "

Mr. Zhao's face was somewhat pale: "I can see that you have indeed been exposed."

I knew that this darkness was the ghouls. When the evil ghost appeared, the Yama Temple's exit was revealed. The outside of the Yama Temple was not very bright, but for the pitch black place, it was bright enough.

However, the surging flood of souls separated us from the light. I knew that we would never be able to leave this place.

The Mr. Zhao said, "Prepare … "Fight them to the death."

Xia Xin took out a knife and muttered, "Is it useful?"

Mr. Zhao scratched his head. "Why don't we go back?"

Time was wasted in such a discussion, and in the blink of an eye, the flood had arrived before us.

From a distance, they looked like a flood that swallowed everything. As they approached, I saw that there were thousands of souls inside. Their faces were fierce and they were about to tear us apart.

I held the dagger in vain and watched helplessly as a wraith drew closer and closer to me. He had a spear in his hand. My dagger was still two or three meters away from him, and the blade of the spear was already at my throat.
