    Speaking of the brazier in the center, it has a lot of background.

    There are three ears on the brazier, which are tied to iron chains protruding from three directions of the secret room, suspended in mid-air, less than two meters from the water below.Jiang Ning was standing on the wall of the granite pool. Judging by her height, she was about 30 centimeters taller than the brazier.The brazier is not small, and it should look heavy, but the three iron chains holding the brazier are as thick as a person's wrist, so it can be regarded as hanging the brazier firmly.

    What really interested Jiang Ning was what was burning in the brazier.

    Although she is afraid of fire, she still needs to make sure. Jiang Meiren leaned closer and smelled it, then covered her mouth and nose and chuckled: "It smells so good."

    "Be careful, don't knock over my stove."

    Bao Le was startled, and looked towards the speaker.

    The secret room illuminated by the rose-colored flame was inevitably a little dark, but it was not so hard to see people clearly.The man stood by the pool not far from them, looking in their direction calmly, with a gentle smile on his face.A head protruded from behind him. Mei Duo, whose neck was pinched by Jun Zhi himself on the third floor, is now like a shy little sister, hiding behind her brother, looking at them timidly.

    Meiduo answered with her immature voice: "The things in the stove are precious."

    Jiang Ning jumped into the pool and stood between Bao Le and the others.

    "Isn't it?" she said, "This thing is worth a thousand gold, it's hard for you to collect so many, no wonder it's almost never seen on the black market these years."

    Bao Le was surprised: "What is burning in that basin?"

    She didn't make much progress in this area, and she couldn't smell the smell of the burning brazier wearing a gas mask, but Shen Wangyan, who was supporting Shen San, thought of something, and her long eyelashes covered her thinking eyes.

    Shen Wangyan raised his eyes: "A rhinoceros?"

    Jiang Ning snapped her fingers: "That's right."

    So, what is a rhinoceros?

    Shen Wangyan watched Bao Le looking at him seeking knowledge, sighed, and explained to her: "Uncle Liu Jing's "Yi Yuan·Volume 7" says, 'I heard the sound of music at the bottom of the water, and the depth of the water is unfathomable.It burns the horn of the rhinoceros and illuminates it. In a moment, it sees a group of aquatic animals covered with fire, with strange shapes, or riding in a carriage, wearing a red robe. The man in the night dream said: "It is separated from the king's dark way, so why do you want to see each other?" Therefore, it is said that the horn of the rhinoceros is taken from the spirit.Part of the white veins is ground into powder to make rhino horn incense, which can conjure ghosts and supernatural powers after being ignited. Lingxi has been extinct for more than a hundred years, and there are very few rhino horn incense in the world."

    "Generally speaking, those who use this kind of thing are those who still remember the dead."

    Bao Le was shocked: "Why do you say that, can people see ghosts by lighting this thing?"

    "People can't see ghosts under normal circumstances. Not only that, ghosts can't see living people. Even if they are in the same space, they can't perceive each other. This is the law of heaven. Many novels now create a pair of yin and yang for the protagonist.eye, but in fact, if you want to connect yin and yang, you must consider both yin and yang, which is even more complicated and difficult."

    After finishing speaking, Young Master Shen shrugged his shoulders, and said again: "As for whether the rhinoceros can connect yin and yang, I haven't tried it."

    Bao Le thinks about it too, after all, judging from what they said, this thing should be very expensive and hard to buy, so it's normal that he hasn't used it, but who knows that Young Master Shen didn't mean it at all.

    Shen Wangyan was disdainful: "My Shen family in Jin Ling is born with a sense of Yin and Yang, and can communicate with ghosts and spirits. I don't need this thing for help."

    Is the old Versailles gone? Are you angry?

    "Although you are born with the ability to communicate with Yin and Yang, you are also affected by this. It is better not to understand."

    A voice came from behind them, it was an acquaintance, the village chief they had met when they first arrived in Guyu Township.

    He opened his mouth and said: "Although I can't understand Yin and Yang myself, now in this world, I can use the fragrance of rhinoceros to achieve supernatural powers. How can I not be better than you?"

    Shen Wangyan sneered: "There will always be a day when the rhinoceros will burn out."

    "Then don't worry about the young master of the Shen family." The hotel owner appeared shortly thereafter speaking his Sichuan Mandarin.

    Bao Le looked around. During the interval between Shen Wangyan's words, many "people" gathered around him. They were basically villagers from Guyu Township.is gradually increasing.This secret room, which was originally quite spacious, gradually seemed a little crowded.

    "Why," Shen Wangyan said, "Don't dare to show your true face, so just use some phantoms to make up the numbers?"

    Hearing what he said, all the "people" present shook their heads, and the village chief said, "Since you all know that the raw rhinoceros was burned in the middle pot, how could I be a phantom?"

    Abu went on to say: "We are all real 'ghosts'."

    Bao Le shivered, no wonder since just now, she felt that the surrounding temperature was getting colder and colder, and they were now surrounded by dozens of ghosts.

    "But don't be afraid," Meiduo said sweetly, "When you become ghosts and join this rank, I believe you will like it."

    Bao Le complained: "No, no, I still feel that being a human being is more free."

    "That's up to you."

    Meiduo took out a string of bells from his bosom, good guy, just seeing this string of bells now gave Bao Le a habitual headache.However, this is not the worst, as Meiduo took out the bell, all the "people" around took out their bells.Even if the bell is not worth much, you don't need to wholesale one for everyone!

    Bao Le and Shen Wangyan glanced at each other, and were about to discuss countermeasures. don't know if the intention was too obvious, but the ene could see it anyway.The other party didn't want to talk about martial arts, and at the same time rang the soul bell in his hand.

    The tearing, deep and long bell came from all directions, and poor Bao Le couldn't stand on the spot, and fell to the ground covering his head.Shen Wangyan's condition was even worse than hers, he spit out a mouthful of black blood, if Shen San hadn't pulled him, he might have passed out.

    Shen San tried to go over and attack the people around him, but it was of no use, the figures were invisible, and when he broke them up with a punch, they might temporarily stop their actions, but then they would appear in other places again,Continue to shake the bell in your hand.

    But do you think this is the worst case scenario?No, as the saying goes, there is no worst, only worse.

    If the appearance of these "people" is due to the strange fragrance produced by the burning of raw rhinoceros, wouldn't lifting the brazier in the center solve all problems perfectly? How could Jiang Ning never think of this method?It's not that she didn't want to, but that something more difficult happened.

    The giant corpse on the second floor responded to the call of the soul bell, rushed out from nowhere, and stopped in front of Jiang Ning.

    It appears here, which means that Jun Zhi may be in danger.

    However, now is not the time to think about this, Jiang Ning's complexion is as frosty, she knows how difficult this thing is to handle, if not, let's not talk about Jun Zhi, they all have to fold here today.

    Abu said, "What, is it a surprise?"

    Jiang Ning drew her sword and sneered.

    "It's my most outstanding work," Meiduo's voice carried the crispness of a little girl. "How could it be defeated so easily? In order to refine it, I put the village head, the village steward, and the sorceress in the furnace.They stayed in the hospital for a whole night, they screamed and begged for mercy, their souls couldn't get out, and it took several years of torture before they merged together."

    Meiduo's childlike innocent voice sounds so creepy at the moment.

    No wonder this giant corpse has three heads and six hands. It doesn't look like three people are tightly intertwined, just like those "Jack Beans" on the second floor.It's just that I didn't expect that someone would be so cruel and make a giant corpse out of a living person.

    ...

    Jiang Ning's fight with the giant corpse was inseparable. It's not that the giant corpse has changed. The power of the giant corpse urged by the soul bell is the same as before.It's just that after these few battles, Jiang Ning found some rules for the giant corpse's moves.This is the difference between human beings and Zongzi. No matter how powerful Zongzi is, no matter how strong he is, and no matter how flexible his body is, he cannot compare with a flexible person.

    But right now, it is definitely not enough to just be satisfied with being evenly matched. Finding a way to break the situation is the most important thing right now.

    No one hates thinking more than Jiang Ning.

    She is different from Jun Zhi, in many cases she can rely on her own strength to solve all difficulties, and she has also developed the bad habit of doing it before using her brain.

    Therefore, when Jun Zhi faced the giant corpse, he would use the method of borrowing strength, but she didn't expect it.She doesn't think it's wrong, if the power is strong enough, then everything will become very simple, just rely on instinct, no need to think.Only when there is still a lack of strength, will she want to use resourcefulness to break the situation. She thinks this is a sign of incompetence.Therefore, Jiang Ning and Jun Zhi often fight when they disagree. She rarely wins against Junzhi, but she never feels that she is weaker than him.

    She hated seeing herself powerless more than losing.

    In this way, the current situation also corresponds to the scene she hates to see the most.

    Jiang Ning sneered.

    She slowed down by a beat, was caught in the gap by the giant corpse, and was thrown two or three meters away.Although she got down to the ground with an umbrella in time, she couldn't resist the impact, and rolled several times before hitting her back against the edge of the pool.

    When Bao Le saw this scene, his heart ached.But the ringtone that gave her a splitting headache made it almost impossible for her to take a step, and even rushed to Jiang Ning to block the giant corpse's attack for her.

    She saw the giant corpse rushing to Jiang Ning, as if she had learned the lesson of not making up the knife last time, this time it pressed on Jiang Ning and strangled her neck forcefully.

    ...

    "Shen San..." Bao Le covered his head, and whispered in Shen San's ear who was in the best condition on their side.

    Shen San nodded after hearing her words, and leaned Shen Wangyan in his arms on Baole's shoulder.The ringtone had a greater impact on Shen Wangyan than Baole. If Bao Le only had a headache and could bear to think, Shen Wangyan was already on the verge of fainting.

    So Shen San's speed must be fast.

    In a blink of an eye, Shen San pulled out a folding knife from his waist, pulled out the blade, and jumped out.

    This descendant of the Aisan tribe released such a number of "people" at one time, no matter whether these "people" are phantoms or "ghosts", he may not be among these people, but he may also be hiding among them.Shengxi is so important to him, if his body is really not here, how can he rest assured.But if his body is here, why do he need so many "people" to cover him.Bao Le recalled what Xiao Jin told them before, perhaps because he stayed here for too long and had not found another suitable body to take over. This descendant of Ai Sang's body was already very weak.

    Then the reason for so many "people" here is easy to understand.

    The real descendants of Ai Sang don't have enough strength to fight against the four of them who can even be described as scarred. Even with the help of this giant corpse, he still dare not show up in front of them.

    Originally, his plan was very successful. As long as there is a little more time, he will be the one who will win sooner or later.

    But if his body is exposed, it will be a different scene.

     …

    Jiang Ning was strangled by the giant corpse, her long hair was scattered on her face, and her long bangs covered her eyes.

    At the moment when the giant corpse was about to break her neck, a few strands of hair were shaken off, revealing the pair of icy snake-like eyes hidden underneath.There was no trace of fear or panic on Jiang Meiren's face, life and death were on the line, but instead she showed a mocking smile, lining her bright red lips, like a manjusawa flower blooming from a dry bone.

    While staring at him, she threw the long sword in the umbrella.

    The giant corpse reacted quickly and turned sideways. The long sword didn't hurt it at all. It rubbed its scalp and went straight to the zenith.

    "game over."

    Jiang Meiren mouthed at the giant corpse.

    ...

    Although Shen San was poisoned, at this critical juncture, he was taller than a dwarf, and he was the one with high hopes.

    Fortunately, he lived up to the trust, broke through many obstacles, and almost shuttled among layers of ghosts. Fortunately, his yang energy was strong, and he didn't feel any obvious discomfort except for the cold.Seeing that he was getting closer to the target, Meiduo's grimace suddenly met him head-on.The girl's bluish-black face was shriveled and gloomy, blood was constantly flowing from her eyes, nose, mouth and ears, and her mouth kept making frightening "giggling" sounds, which seemed to be a smile rather than a smile.

    Shen San's eyes changed, and a straight hook passed through Meiduo's body, grabbing the person behind her.

    The knife shines brightly.

    Meiduo's soul dissipated in the air, revealing the person behind her controlled by Shen Sanjia with a knife——

    Abu.

    In an instant, all the soul bells stopped abruptly.

    Abu didn't dissipate like the souls he met before, and Shen San was very sure that he had really caught someone this time, and this also confirmed that what Bao Le said in his ear just now was correct.

    Bao Le told him: "To catch a thief, first catch the king, and to catch a man, first catch Abu."

    Abu, who was under control, didn't seem too panicked. He lowered his head and smiled, and still thought about asking them: "Where did I show my flaws?"

    Bao Le and Shen Wangyan barely stood up after the ringing stopped.

    The little girl said rather proudly, "Because of the blood."

    Abu raised his eyebrows.

    "You killed a lot of people, and you buried some of them at will. The dampness of the Sichuan land turned them into hairy zombies. I guess these people should be the archaeological team in the village during the Gengshen years. There are also a group of people, they are mummified corpses, likeIt's Meiduo, and the one who pretended to be your mother, so I think you made the original villagers of Guyu Township into mummies. However, no matter whether they are mummies or zombies, they are corpses that have been dead for a hundred years, so if you just cut them offThe arms and legs can still continue to stand up because of your driving, and they will not bleed."

    "But you are different from them. No matter how many people you take away, you are still a person in the final analysis, and people will bleed."

    Bao Le sighed: "When my whip hit you, I clearly remembered that you were bleeding. Otherwise, you would not have retreated so quickly that night. Your body that has been used for a hundred years is already very weakIt's gone, isn't it?"

    The smile on the corner of Abu's mouth slowly calmed down because of her words.

    ...

    Jiang Ning's sword fell from the sky in the original direction, and the position she had found in advance was just right for the falling blade to hit one of the iron chains tied to the brazier.If the blade is sharp enough, it is usually described as cutting iron like mud. Bao Le has never known what material her sword is made of, but now it can at least prove that the sharpness of this sword even surpasses this description.

    The sword slid across the iron chain, splitting the iron chain as thick as a wrist in an instant.

    The raw rhinoceros in the brazier poured out along with the flames, and some of them evenly spread on the three heads of the giant corpse, exuding a smell of scalded meat.Another part melted into the pool of water under the brazier and disappeared in an instant.

    There was a crack in the expression on Abu's face.

    ...

    Because of the overturning of the central brazier, the secret room went dark for a moment, and the only light source was probably the last burning flame on the head of the giant corpse.The three heads of this giant corpse were all scalded to varying degrees, and the temperature of the burning rhinoceros flame was much higher than that of ordinary flames.The giant corpse is the same as the mummy encountered before, even if the leg is cut in half, it will not affect the movement, so the weakness should be the same, which is the head.It is quite difficult to cut off three heads at once, but it is much easier to burn three heads.

    The unbearable giant corpse struggled for a long time before finally falling to the ground.

    It was Jiang Ning, who crawled out from under the giant corpse for a long time.

    Shen Wangyan's expression changed, and he coughed violently for a while, Bao Le quickly looked at him.

    While coughing, Young Master Shen struggled to say a complete sentence: "Jiang Ning is afraid of fire...go find her."

    Although he had good concerns, he still underestimated Jiang Ning, and Jiang Meiren kicked the giant corpse hard in the stomach.The strength contained in this kick has vented all the aggrievedness he had suffered before.The giant corpse was kicked and embedded in the wall, unable to be removed.

    "I've said it all," Jiang Ning shook her hair in a victorious manner, "I don't like to use my brain to fight, so you have to force me."

    Bao Le's eyes are full of tears, the queen is worthy of being a queen, so handsome!

    ...

    As the giant corpse was embedded in the wall, the last light in the secret room was extinguished, the fragrance of the rhinoceros disappeared, and all ghosts returned to the underworld in an instant.

    Between light and darkness, Abu sneered.
