spooky invasion

Chapter 418 Rescue and Dilemma

Looking at the messy scene, Jiang Yue didn't breathe a sigh of relief, the heartstrings were still tense.

Although the female ghost had already fled, Jiang Yue was extremely surprised by the strength the female ghost showed just now.

This is the second time he failed to use Shen Gang to kill ghosts, and both times it failed on the same female ghost.

It seems that even if this Divine Gang Ghost Slayer has been advanced once, not all ghosts can be captured with one hand.

This world is mutating at an unpredictable rate every day, and these evil monsters are obviously also evolving, and their strength is getting stronger and stronger.

At the beginning of the strange era, Jiang Yue never missed his hand to destroy ghosts with the divine gang.

This time, he missed twice in a row.

It's not just evil spirits that have evolved, there are also a small number of humans like Zhu Yindong.

Jiang Yue collected himself and put away those chaotic thoughts.Go to the stairs, all the way down the stairs.

This is indeed a mansion, but the decoration style is a bit old, and it looks very old.But judging from the decoration materials, at that time, it must have been the first-class local tyrants who had the ability to dress so luxuriously.

The room was filled with a musty smell that had not been ventilated for a long time, and the handrails of the stairs were also full of dust.

Jiang Yue soon heard some movement coming from the basement.

All the way to the basement opening quickly, Jiang Yue stood in front of the opening and observed for a while, cleverly avoiding several traps.

The size of the basement is also huge, and the light is dim. If Jiang Yue's eyesight was not amazing, and he suddenly entered such a claustrophobic place, he would have been scared to pee on the spot.

There are actually two floors in this basement. The strange thing is that there are no steps to go down to the second basement floor, and the whole is a claustrophobic space.

The faint sound was coming up from below.

Jiang Yue quickly found a vertical opening.

This opening itself is an organ.

However, this mechanism has obviously been activated, so the opening, which is about five square meters, is just exposed in front of Jiang Yue.

After observing for a while, Jiang Yue judged that the opening was intentionally left, and the two double-opening steel plates were perfectly arranged.

As long as the machine expands, the two steel plates will automatically hang down.

The person standing on it fell down without any suspense.

This mechanism is actually not complicated, it can even be said to be very simple.

But it is extremely practical to deal with unsuspecting people.

Jiang Yue observed that there should have been a layer of carpet on top of the mechanism, which cleverly covered the steel plate.

He took out a flashlight from his backpack and searched downwards.

When the light shot into the ground, there were bursts of humming sounds from below.

The second basement floor was actually much higher than ordinary floors, Jiang Yue visually estimated that it was at least six or seven meters high.

It can be seen that the second basement floor should have been designed in this way early on.

This made Jiang Yue feel a little strange. Jiang Yue had never seen someone who designed houses like this in the Sunshine Age.

Why leave such a deep second basement floor?And the stairs have not been repaired yet, so it feels weird.

Of course, now is not the time to test this.

Jiang Yue judged from the weak whining sound that there was indeed more than one person here, there seemed to be three people.

Maybe, how many of them are really Lao Han?

Although Jiang Yue was somewhat sure, he was not in a hurry to jump down.Jiang Yue didn't want to rush into such a weird second basement.

What if there were some other traps waiting for him here?

If you jump down, will the two falling steel plates automatically close again?

With this height and a thick layer of steel plates on top of his head, even Jiang Yue is not absolutely sure that he can get out of trouble.

If you really want to jump down, there is a real risk of becoming someone else's fish on the board.

He wandered around the basement floor to make sure there was nothing threatening around.Then he returned to the opening, stroked his chin, and thought about what to do to ensure that the two steel plates would not close together, so that he would not be trapped underneath.

Soon, Jiang Yue had an idea. He dragged a solid wood couch up to the first floor, inserted it obliquely, and stuck it up and down the opening.

With such a card, even if the steel plate has a mechanism that can automatically close, because a long solid wood hair is stuck, it will definitely not close.

The solid wood sofa is stuck in the middle area, and there is enough space at both ends for people to go up and down.

However, it was ensured that the solid wood sofa would not fall down, and Jiang Yue put a lot of heavy objects on it. In this way, it was safe enough to ensure that there would be no risk.

Afterwards, Jiang Yue took out the long rope from last time from his backpack, tied it to the sofa, and let the other end of the rope hang down to the second underground floor.

After eliminating the risk, Jiang Yue no longer hesitated, and jumped in along the side of the hole.

Six or seven meters was no pressure for Jiang Yue. After landing firmly, Jiang Yue quickly swept the flashlight in all directions to rule out other unexpected attacks.

The second basement floor is also extremely empty, but there are some strange counters, which look like vegetable stalls in a vegetable market.

But Jiang Yue's first feeling was that this place might not be serious in the first place.

I'm afraid this ghostly place used to be a place for ulterior motives.

Of course, these strange tables have obviously been abandoned, and there is no reason to see them at all.

Jiang Yue quickly found Lao Han and others beside a table in the corner.

The body was obviously tied to the edge of the table, wrapped several times, unable to struggle at all, with several layers of tape wrapped around his mouth, no wonder he could only make a little whimpering sound from his throat.

When Jiang Yue's flashlight hit their faces, they closed their eyes in resistance.Staying in the dark claustrophobic space for too long, the sudden bright light obviously made them unable to adapt.

But when they opened their eyes and found that it was Jiang Yue, the expressions of astonishment and surprise on their faces were beyond description.

Jiang Yue tore off the tape from their mouths, and then broke the rope that wrapped them around.

They had been tied up for so long, and their whole bodies were already numb. After they regained their freedom, they slowed down for several minutes before slowly regaining some strength.

This encounter obviously made Lao Han a little downcast, and his previous stability and calmness were more or less affected.

There was a tacit understanding with each other without asking too many questions.

Through the rope tied by Jiang Yue, several people returned upstairs.

When he returned to the first floor, Jiang Yue hesitated inside the gate.

"Old Han, when you came, did you come in through the main entrance?"

"Correct."

"Successfully let you enter the house? Didn't you encounter any obstacles?"

"Everything went well. The man brought us to the Beauty Snake Gallery. He said that this place was haunted and let us come in by ourselves. He left in a hurry."

"Haven't you doubted that this is not the Beauty Snake Gallery?"

"The signboard outside clearly has the words Beauty Snake Gallery." Old Han was extremely frustrated, but when he looked around, the expression on his face was a little frozen.

"This... what kind of place is this? When we came in, the house didn't look like this. There are paintings everywhere. It's obviously a painting studio. How could it be like this?"

Old Han was shocked, his mouth was wide open, almost enough to put a duck egg in.

The other two team members also opened their eyes wide, their faces full of disbelief.

Soon, Lao Han had a bitter look on his face again, and said dejectedly: "It seems that we have been tricked."

"It's not just people playing tricks on you." Jiang Yue sighed.

Old Han sighed, and then thought of another thing: "There were four of us in total. After falling into the second basement floor, the surroundings were pitch black. In the chaos, Xiao Zheng didn't know where they got him."

Four people came, but there were only three left at this time. Lao Han, the leader of the team, naturally felt uncomfortable.

"They? Who are they? Can you see clearly?"

"It was pitch black at the time, and I didn't know who the other party was. Anyway, after we fell into it, we seemed to be entangled by something. I seemed to hear Xiao Zheng's screams getting farther and farther away, and gradually disappeared. "

"What is it that is entangled? You are not unconscious at all, are you?"

"It feels like a rope, but the texture is rougher than a rope, and it doesn't look like a metal wire, but it's a bit like a branch or vine."

Jiang Yue's face changed slightly.

If it was something like branches and vines, Jiang Yue would immediately understand what was going on.

Could it be that Zhu Yindong really did it himself?

Isn't this guy's awakening direction related to plants?A small seed can kill a person, so manipulating some vine branches is nothing more than normal.

When I came in earlier, the weeds that suddenly mutated around the yard, didn't it also prove this point?

"Xiao Jiang, is there another troublesome monster emerging?"

"This time it may not be an evil monster." Jiang Yue murmured.

"Forget it, let's leave here first. It has been almost 48 hours since we set off. We must go back and report early. Now the bureau is probably raised to the highest red level by the crisis."

As Lao Han said, he reached out to open the door.

"Don't open the door!" Jiang Yue hastily stopped him.

Old Han was taken aback, this ghostly place is so weird, what is Jiang Yue hesitating about, why does he feel like leaving but can't move forward?
"See for yourself what's going on outside the door."

What could be the situation outside?
Lao Han leaned so close that the cat's eyes were facing the outside, and he was almost taken aback.

The weeds all over the yard seemed to be catalyzed overnight, and they stood up one by one, like thousands of javelins, leaning forward in a uniform manner towards the house, maintaining a very obvious attack The posture, that posture looks like a soldier who is about to launch a general attack on this house at any time.

These countless upright weeds seem to be endowed with life, and they are faintly personified, which makes people clearly feel the strong murderous aura.

Old Han has no doubt that if he pushes the door out right now, the result of his encounter is likely to be swallowed by these weird weeds.

This is no normal weed.

How could this be?Lao Han's scalp was also numb.

When I came in yesterday, it was really not like this.

If there were these weird weeds back then, Lao Han and the others wouldn't be able to get in at all.

The other two team members saw that Lao Han's complexion was wrong, so they also came over to take a look.

After watching it, they all fell into depression.

Even if they are old players who have been tested by strange incidents, they can't help but feel a little creepy in the face of this obviously weird aura.

Because of the murderous aura emanating from those weeds, they could clearly feel the anthropomorphic posture that seemed to possess a strong aggressive mood.

They even couldn't help wondering whether these weeds would break into the door at any time.

After all, if the weeds can grow so tall, why can't they continue to grow wildly and grow all the way into the house?

"How can this be good?"

"If only there were herbicides or something."

Old Han's two subordinates seemed to be talking to themselves.

Use herbicides to deal with mutated vegetation?This brain hole is indeed mediocre, and its feasibility is almost zero.

Let's not talk about whether weeds of this size can be destroyed, just talk about the dosage, how much will it take?
With such a large dose, Jiang Yue didn't know if these weeds could be wiped out, but there was a high probability that the people in the house would be wiped out first.

"It might be useful if you have some big scissors in your hand. You can definitely push them horizontally when you cut all the way."

These are unrealistic opinions.

Where can I find such big scissors?And do scissors really work?No one knows how tough these weeds are.

Even if there are super-large scissors, it is unknown whether it can be cut, and such a large-scale weed, even if one has a pair of large scissors, how many can be cut off?

Once the attack density reaches a certain terrifying level, the effect of the big scissors is minimal.

Hand speed can't keep up.

"Xiao Jiang, what should we do? We have to leave this damn place as soon as possible." Lao Han worried.

The three of them have been tied up for so long, and their condition is not very good. If they stay in this ghost place for too long and new troubles arise, how should they deal with it?
If Jiang Yue was alone, he wouldn't feel any pressure to leave this place.

As long as you go to a high place and glide at will, you can go at least tens of meters away.

But these three, jumping from the third and fourth floors, whether they can jump out of the yard, Jiang Yue is not sure at all.

And during this process, will the weeds all over the yard be honest and not attack them?

"Han Chu, can we consider fire attack? Light up all these weeds with a torch, and see if they are still arrogant?"

Old Han smiled wryly: "To burn such a large-scale weed, how much fire do we have to put on? If the grass is not completely burned by then, we are afraid that we will end up with a house full of barbecues."

fire?

Jiang Yue's heart skipped a beat, thinking it was worth trying.

If it really doesn't work, then consider whether to take them to jump out from a high place.

Jiang Yue asked himself that it shouldn't be a big problem to jump out with one person.

To attack with fire, you must first have equipment.

There are quite a lot of old sheets and clothes in this room, but it's a pity that there is no such thing as gasoline to fuel the fire, otherwise it will burn faster.

Several people came to the roof, lit the sheets and quilts, and threw them into the yard frantically.

Because of insufficient combustion, the burning sheets and quilts were billowing smoke and burning all over the yard.

At this time, a strange situation happened.
