I’m Being Held Captive by Demons - Chapter 38
[Chapter 38 The Dark Island]
The girl was so excited that she almost suspected that she had heard it wrong.
Those suspicious and shocked eyes almost wrote the words “is your brain broken” on his forehead.
Kong Ning smiled slightly and said, “Naturally, I want to enter the ghost market… Don’t worry, I’m sure, Miss Wan’er doesn’t have to worry.”
This sentence, of course, is a complete lie.
Kong Ning is not really sure.
It was only out of trust in the mysterious black tank and the helplessness of having no choice that this seemingly absurd choice was made.
The target in the ghost market was found by the black tank when it was close to Zhongyuan. The target that the black tank found for Kong Ning was the monster in the Xu residence.
Kong Ning suspects that once the Mid-Year Festival is over and the ghost market is closed, Kong Ning will no longer have the opportunity to kill the evil thing inside.
Although like Wan’er said, the situation in the ghost city is unknown, and it is very dangerous to enter alone.
But Kong Ning thought about it for a while, and felt that the ghost city was safer than the monster in the Xu residence, no matter how dangerous it was.
The mist that pointed at the monsters in the Xu residence turned purple.
Kong Ning went to find the monsters in the Xu residence, which was basically a near-death experience.
On the other hand, the ghost city has a much higher chance of survival.
After all, whether there are a large number of evil ghosts or a terrifyingly powerful ghost king in the ghost city, they should be gone at this time.
The only thing Kong Ning can do at this time is the lesser of the two evils.
Wan’er stared at Kong Ning in front of her, but could only see the firmness in Kong Ning’s eyes.
The girl was silent for a while, and then said: “I don’t know why Ning Zhaotou keeps going into the ghost market, but even if you want to go in, Wan’er should go in…or we go in together. Ning Zhaotou, you choose one.”
Kong Ning looked at her in surprise and said, “Miss Wan’er, you…”
After hesitating for a while, Kong Ning smiled helplessly: “At this time, shouldn’t you say [Tell me your secret, or I won’t help you in]?”
Wan’er’s reaction was somewhat unexpected.
He had always thought that this little girl was a warm-blooded natural idiot, and he even thought about what lies to say to fool the other party, but he did not expect the girl to make such a response.
The girl shook her head and said, “I don’t care what secrets Ning Zhaotou has, because everyone has secrets that cannot be shared with others. Today’s world is difficult and demons are rampant, and Ning Zhaotou and I are grasshoppers on a rope. It’s enough to understand this. It would be too stupid to fight here because Ning Zhaotou has reservations.”
“The demons know, I’m afraid they will laugh from ear to ear.”
“So I don’t care what secrets Ning Chutou has. I also believe that Ning Chutou will not seek death. Since Ning Chutou has the courage to enter the ghost market, then Wan’er will accompany you for a while.”
“In this way, there is also a care for each other.”
“As for the secret of Ning Zhaotou, Wan’er won’t explore it.”
Under the night, the girl’s expression was rare and serious, and she couldn’t see the usual stupidity.
Kong Ning looked at her for a few seconds, then smiled helplessly: “Miss Wan’er is really… Ha… Well, let’s enter the ghost market together.”
After speaking, Kong Ning paused for a while, and then said: “My target is an evil creature in the ghost market. But I don’t know the specific information of the other party. I only know that it is probably weaker than me and has entered the ghost market. After that, I can find its location… that’s all I can say at the moment.”
The mysterious black pot is Kong Ning’s biggest trump card. Even if the girl’s trust and support moved him, Kong Ning would not easily reveal his trump card.
The girl nodded and said, “That’s enough.”
So, the girl performed the magic of spirit and illusion, forming a seal on her hands, evoking aura around her.
Threads of aura floated on Kong Ning’s body surface, turned into a translucent outer skin of aura, and then disappeared silently.
The girl said: “This technique can hide the breath of the living,
Even if we enter the ghost market and meet evil spirits, the other party will only think that we are ghosts… Ning Zhaotou, come with me.
”
As the girl said that, the huge ancient sword that directly reached out and suspended in the air flew over and was put into the scabbard on her back.
Wearing the same invisible aura as Kong Ning, the girl took the lead in walking towards the nothingness in front of her.
Kong Ning followed closely and stepped onto the center of the stone bridge.
In an instant, Kong Ning only felt a slight shock in his body, as if he had fallen into some kind of cold water.
An icy chill instantly spread to Kong Ning’s body.
In a trance, he seemed to have penetrated an invisible barrier.
The pungent smoke and fire scattered around the county town disappeared instantly.
Kong Ning felt that his nasal cavity was much more comfortable.
But what followed was a frowningly cold air.
When Kong Ning opened his eyes and turned around again, he could no longer see the bridge body of Qingban Bridge and the peaceful county town under the night.
The direction behind Kong Ning was a pitch-black mist, and nothing could be seen.
And at the end of the stone bridge in front of him, there was a lively night market with brilliant lights.
One after another, square white lanterns floated in the air, densely packed, like a pair of ghost eyes opened in the dark.
UU reading www.sonicmtl.com The pale and gloomy light illuminated a little light in the field of vision.
And on these weird lanterns floating everywhere, there is a big black character written on them – Lien.
And the stone bridge at the foot of Kong Ning seems to have a river flowing.
But it was not the river of Wangjiang River. Kong Ning walked to the bridge and looked down, only to feel that the bridge was dark and dark, endlessly empty, but he couldn’t see anything.
And in a trance, there seemed to be an inexplicable attraction that made him jump.
The girl’s hand grabbed him and pulled him back.
“Don’t look at it for a long time,” Wan’er warned in a low voice.
Kong Ning looked at the girl beside him.
At this time, Wan’er has undergone tremendous changes compared to when she was in the sun.
Her skin became extremely pale and penetrating, her eyes were slightly bulging, and on the slender fingers hanging down beside her, she had long purple nails like sharp claws.
Seeing Kong Ning’s strange expression, the girl coughed and said, “Ning Zhaotou, don’t look at me like that, it’s so scary…”
There is no mirror here, Kong Ning doesn’t know what he is disguised as.
But judging from the girl’s somewhat fearful and disgusting eyes, it’s definitely not a good image.
After coughing, Kong Ning looked at the ghost market ahead and said, “Is this a ghost market?”
Under the gloomy pitch-black sky, what appeared in Kong Ning’s field of vision was a strange city surrounded by darkness.
The stone bridge that continued to stretch forward just joined the strange city.
Countless white lanterns floating in the void illuminated the city brightly.
However, the surroundings of the city were filled with eerie darkness that could not be dissolved.
This city full of strange lanterns is like an island floating on the dark sea, with an uncomfortable atmosphere.
