Chapter 624 Lighting Up the Stars!
Home,
Home...
"Boss? Boss?"
Lawyer An watched as his boss slowly opened his eyes, but he had called out to him several times without a response. His lips were moving silently, and his gaze was filled with deep confusion.
Anyone who had been bombarded with half a month's worth of memories in such a short period would be like this, or even worse.
Normal people are groggy for a long time after waking up from a dream, let alone Zhou Ze, whose dream was a nightmare among nightmares.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Xu Qinglang propped up the formation barrier.
Black shadows crashed into it one after another.
They were quickly bounced away whenever they collided, but they persisted tirelessly, and their numbers continued to increase.
"Is Old Zhou still not awake? My formation can't hold on much longer!"
Xu Qinglang was busy maintaining the formation and couldn't look back to see what was happening behind him.
"This..." Lawyer An looked at his boss again and said, "I'm not sure if he's awake or not."
Logically, the possession should be over, and the military spirit had left Zhou Ze's body. Lawyer An had seen it with his own eyes, so his boss should have woken up.
Could it be that Gou Xin's medicine was too effective?
Or had his boss suffered some mental damage?
"Boom!"
A cloud of dust rose.
The formation shattered.
A blue light emanated from deep within Xu Qinglang's eyes, and streams of light shot out from behind him, continuously whipping away seven or eight black shadows. From a distance, it looked as if several python tails had grown out of his body.
"These things can't be killed or destroyed!"
Xu Qinglang shouted.
Lawyer An also stood up, forming hand seals with both hands:
"The underworld is orderly, and the laws of death are impartial, break!"
"Boom!"
A string of black shadows was swept away, but they quickly emerged from the fog again. These black things were like parasites that clung to the fog. As long as the fog remained, they would never disappear, constantly repeating, endlessly regenerating.
They weren't particularly powerful or formidable, but if this continued, they really might be able to kill an elephant with ant bites.
"Break out of here, take the boss with you! If we stay here, these things will gather more and more!"
Xu Qinglang shouted.
Lawyer An reached out and helped Zhou Ze to his feet. Seeing that Zhou Ze was still dazed, he simply hoisted Zhou Ze onto his shoulders.
He called out:
"Yingying, get her out of there first, then let's go together!"
Zhou Ze only felt that he was being jostled around constantly.
He tried many times to focus his vision,
But before his eyes, what he was seeing was clearly a thick fog, yet it kept changing into images of being in a heavy rain. Dream and reality had become severely distorted, and he needed time to sort things out.
The black shadows were indeed increasing, but even if Zhou Ze did nothing, with Lawyer An and Lao Xu escorting him, there were no problems for the time being. Lawyer An carried Zhou Ze on his back while forming hand seals, coordinating with Lao Xu to clear the surrounding black shadows. At the same time, the two began to move in the direction Yingying had gone.
However,
In this vast fog, finding a person quickly was indeed a very difficult task.
"Ding..."
A crisp sound rang out,
Followed by,
A gust of wind!
Lawyer An's eyes narrowed.
He knelt directly on the ground, clutching his head in extreme pain. Zhou Ze, who had been carried on his back, also fell to the ground.
"Cough..."
He hadn't been roused by shouting earlier,
But now he had been jolted awake by the fall.
Zhou Ze looked around in confusion.
What thick fog,
What was going on?
"Ding..."
"Hiss..."
Zhou Ze clutched his head in extreme pain, just like Lawyer An beside him.
"Boss, you're awake..."
Lawyer An's eyes were bloodshot.
"What...is going on..."
Zhou Ze gritted his teeth, resisting the pain.
"Ding..."
Xu Qinglang's figure was also faltering. This sound, accompanied by the wind, seemed capable of blowing away your soul. The feeling of forcibly tearing the soul from the body was no less than torture.
However, Xu Qinglang had the blessing of the Sea God, which was like having someone supporting him from the distant ocean.
So even if the wind was a little stronger,
He could still hold on for a while.
"This fog, this wind..." Zhou Ze looked around, "Why does it seem like I've experienced this before?"
"That gate, Boss, do you remember? The one that collects souls, you picked up that leather whip from there."
"Oh..."
"Ding..."
Zhou Ze and Lawyer An lowered their heads again in extreme pain.
This time,
Even Xu Qinglang squatted down, unable to bear it any longer.
However, after the wind started, the black shadows in the fog disappeared, as if they couldn't exist in the strong wind either.
Around them,
Souls began to appear,
Mostly looking like local villagers,
Forming into groups, they passed by Zhou Ze and the others as if no one else was there, heading to where they needed to go.
Everything was the same as what they had experienced in the deep mountains when they went to find the little loli. Back then, an entire village of people had been taken away.
As someone who had been through it before, there wasn't much danger, just some pain for a while. The wind should stop after a while.
Ordinary souls would be affected by the fog and wind, slowly heading towards the pre-determined path, but for Zhou Ze and Lawyer An, it wasn't enough to really have their souls taken away.
But why would this fog appear here?
Also,
Why did it appear at this specific time?
This was something Zhou Ze couldn't understand. He didn't bring the old Taoist priest with him this time, so why was fate targeting him so much?
Suddenly,
Zhou Ze thought of something,
That was, as the fog continued to spread,
All the souls within the area enveloped by the fog would be attracted away, disappearing into another designed place that wasn't the way to hell at all.
From what Feng Si'er had said, this was the work of some big shot in hell, and Feng Si'er was only responsible for cleaning up the mess on the other end of hell.
In other words,
The tens of thousands of expeditionary force military souls who died here more than seventy years ago would also be sucked in in the end?
Was that,
Their target?
But how could it be such a coincidence?
"Ding..."
The wind continued,
And Zhou Ze's pain continued as well, but he was more anxious about these military souls than himself.
More than seventy years ago, they had gone to war for their country, dying on the way home, dying at the gates of their country.
They had waited here for more than seventy years,
And in the end,
They couldn't even enter reincarnation, but instead would be sucked into that damned place?
"Boss, let's go, try to sense Yingying's location, try turning into a zombie."
Lawyer An shouted to Zhou Ze.
"Go?"
"We've been tricked this time, too unlucky."
Lawyer An's face showed pain and resentment.
Zhou Ze found it strange. Was Lawyer An taking this matter too seriously? He usually didn't look like this. Although he couldn't keep his emotions completely hidden, he could at least maintain a smiling face.
"Boss, Boss!"
Yingying's voice came from the fog.
"Here!"
Zhou Ze shouted.
Soon,
Yingying ran out of the fog. She was the one who had the least problems here. It was like this last time, and it was like this again this time, because she had no soul.
And although Zhou Ze was a zombie, he had a soul.
Seeing that his boss, Lawyer An, and Xu Qinglang were all kneeling on the ground in pain,
Yingying immediately ran over anxiously,
Hey!
She first went around Xu Qinglang.
"..." Xu Qinglang.
Ha!
Then she stepped over Lawyer An.
"..." Lawyer An.
Finally,
Yingying came to Zhou Ze's side and carried Zhou Ze on her back without saying a word.
"Boss, I'll take you out of this fog first!"
"Yingying, you take the boss away first, he was just injured, he's not feeling well, take him away first, don't worry about us."
Lawyer An said.
"Okay!"
Yingying didn't look back, carrying her boss directly into the fog.
"..." Lawyer An.
Xu Qinglang said helplessly, "I think it wouldn't be a problem for Yingying to carry another person and run."
Lawyer An lowered his head,
He didn't expect the female zombie to not even understand polite words, so he could only say:
"Just bear with it, it'll be fine in a while, this fog doesn't have much of an impact on us, there won't be any danger."
The first time is unfamiliar, the second time is familiar. With the experience from last time, Lawyer An was confident this time.
Yingying ran for a while with Zhou Ze on her back. She was quick on her feet and strong, and she really didn't stop at all.
But while running, she seemed to be tripped by something, but Yingying didn't fall. The thing that tripped her was pulled directly out of the muddy ground.
"Crack!"
It was a military canteen.
Many military or historical museums would collect similar military canteens, but the canteens there were cleaned out. The one in front of her was very dirty.
After Zhou Ze, who was originally carried on Yingying's back, saw these two things, his mind seemed to "boom."
The scene of the heavy rain he had seen before began to appear in front of him again.
"Yingying, stop, stop!"
"Boss?"
Yingying stopped.
"Put me down."
"Oh, okay."
Zhou Ze was put down.
"Ding..."
"Hiss..."
Zhou Ze staggered and fell to the ground, but he still struggled to crawl forward until his hand grabbed the military canteen in front of him.
"Boss, should we go? If it didn't work this time, then forget it, let's go home, okay?"
Yingying persuaded him from the side.
Zhou Ze pursed his lips, grabbed the canteen covered in mud, and endured the tearing pain in his soul, silently putting the canteen back in his arms.
Looking around,
In this misty fog,
Zhou Ze felt that his vision was a little blurry,
Even though the fog was thick,
He seemed to see bodies lying on the ground all around him, never to be able to get up again,
He saw the person who took the initiative to pour gasoline on himself and the constantly flashing fire.
"Boss, what's wrong?"
Yingying waved her hand in front of Zhou Ze.
Zhou Ze seemed to feel nothing, just silently chanting:
"Home..."
We are so cold,
We are so tired,
We,
Want to go home...
