Chapter 16 Exploring the Pond Alone(1/2)
All the lotus flowers in the pond turned red.
Huang Feng rubbed his eyes gently, and it was still the same when he looked again.
He remembered that when he came out, he had a special look at the pond. There was no smoke blocking his view, and he could see it very clearly.
Except for the red center of the lotus, the rest of the lotus is white like snow.
But now all the lotus flowers have turned blood red!
The changing lotus?
not good!
"Don't keep staring at the lotus."
Huang Feng's face changed drastically. He thought of the lotus demon's killing rules. If these lotus flowers were possessed by the lotus demon, if they were stared at like now, there would definitely be a big problem.
Fortunately, with Huang Feng's reminder, the other six people also reacted and quickly looked away.
"Damn it, I almost died."
Liu Yong covered his chest and said exaggeratedly: "If it weren't for Huang Feng's reminder, we would have gone on the road together to pay homage to the Lord of Hell."
"Huang Feng, thank you."
After saying that, Liu Yong looked at Taojiang again, his expression became more serious: "Captain, you are right, there is a very terrifying aura under the pond."
"It is in deep sleep."
Pointing to the surface of the pond covered by lotus flowers, Liu Yong's tone gradually became more frightening: "It's very powerful, and the strangeness is extremely strong. I have never seen such an exaggerated strangeness."
"Is it so powerful?"
Taojiang rubbed his hands and his excitement was palpable: "How about we give it a try?"
"No."
The people in Team 044 said in unison: "Captain, don't even think about it. According to what you just said, we will go back and report it first and see what the people above have to say."
"All right."
After hesitating for a few seconds, Taojiang finally gave up the idea of trying, "Then let's go back first."
"Huang Feng, the old house needs to be closed and controlled. I will trouble you and Liu Li to guard it here tonight."
After Taojiang finished speaking, he asked worriedly: "You two, please don't come here again privately. Although the female ghost just now let us escape from the ghost realm for some unknown reason, you two are not even capable of escaping if you encounter her."
"Yes, Captain."
Huang Feng and Liu Li promised: "We will definitely not get close to here."
A few minutes later, Taojiang led the team and left the Huang family's old house.
Huang Feng and Liu Li stood outside the yard.
"Classmate Huang Feng, what do you mean by them?"
"what do you mean?"
Looking at Liu Li who was talking to her, Huang Feng was puzzled.
Gently pulling back her hair, Liu Li looked at the direction Taojiang and the others were leaving, and said with confusion: "We are obviously newcomers, why did they let us stay?"
"Classmate Huang Feng, don't you think it's a little strange?"
"What's so strange?"
Huang Feng looked at her in surprise: "The two of us only temporarily joined the 044 team. Strictly speaking, we are not members of the patrol department."
"Besides, the things in the backyard haven't fully awakened yet. Plus this is my family's old house, so it makes sense to stay here."
Liu Li was silent for a moment.
She didn't seem to have expected Huang Feng to say that. She stared at Huang Feng closely for a moment and found nothing wrong with what he said.
"madness."
Silently commenting in her heart, Liu Li lost the mood to continue talking, leaned against the doorpost, folded her hands in front of her chest, and looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle.
Oh, woman.
Liu Li's behavior made Huang Feng laugh inside.
He just said that on purpose.
Liu Li almost didn't say clearly that Taojiang left them behind because he was suspected of being used as bait.
Huang Feng didn't understand why, but he understood better that regardless of whether Taojiang and the others had any plan to use them as bait, if they wanted to get extra points in the imperial examination, they needed to complete this task.
In the evening, I'd better check the backyard again to see what's going on.
The courtyard door has been locked, and the key was temporarily requisitioned by Taojiang.
Through the small gap, Huang Feng could see the small courtyard at the end of the courtyard.
It was late at night and the moon was rising very high.
The moonlight was very bright, passing through the dense leaves and casting various light spots on the ground.
Unfortunately, the moonlight seemed unable to illuminate the backyard, and the scene behind the courtyard was pitch black.
There are two scenes in the same world,
This made Huang Feng's idea of going to find out more firmly.
The time came to five o'clock in the evening, the night was completely dark, and the sky in the east appeared misty white.
Huang Feng, who was sitting on the steps, glanced at Liu Li at the other end, his eyes flashing.
Chance!
After staying up for half the night, nothing unexpected happened, and Liu Li was already dozing off.
Her eyelids were fighting, and after struggling for a while, they finally closed slowly.
Seeing Liu Li's head buried between her knees, Huang Feng started to take action.
He stood up slowly, walked quietly to the side of the gate, touched his toes lightly on the ground, jumped up suddenly, crossed the courtyard wall, and landed steadily in the courtyard.
"Looks like she slept to death."
He raised his ears and heard nothing else. Huang Feng raised the corners of his mouth in a slight arc and walked towards the backyard with confidence.
He didn't know that when he just crossed the courtyard wall, Liu Li, who was sleeping, raised her head and looked at his back, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised...
Here, Huang Feng passed through the courtyard and came to the edge of the pond again.
I don't know if it was because of being alone, but as soon as he stepped into the backyard, Huang Feng felt a chilling aura that wrapped him tightly.
The spiritual pressure is released and the breath is isolated.
Huang Feng stood by the pond and looked inside.
All the lotus flowers are blood red, and they look like a heartbeat. The breeze blows, and the swaying lotus flowers are like flowing blood.
Apart from that, nothing else happened.
So it’s just a psychological effect?
Just when Huang Feng was thinking this, a sudden change occurred.
In the center of the pond, the clustered lotus flowers were pushed open in all directions by an invisible force.
The brownish-red pool water was exposed, and the water surface was rolling constantly, and something was about to come out.
When Huang Feng saw this, his expression became condensed. Thinking of Liu Yong's words earlier, he wanted to run away.
Just as he turned around, he felt a pain in the back of his neck. Huang Feng's vision went dark and he didn't know anything at all.
"Lian Yi, why are you so harsh?"
After Huang Feng fainted, two figures appeared next to him.
One was dressed in black, and the other was in simple sportswear. The person wearing sportswear was clearly Liu Li, who was supposed to be sleeping.
Liu Li looked at Lian Yi with dissatisfaction: "If he is beaten to death directly, his eldest sister will definitely investigate to the end. When the time comes..."
"calm down."
Lian Yi shrugged nonchalantly and said nonchalantly: "Our plan will be completed soon, why do we need to worry about a patrol team leader?"
"I'm not telling you, Liansan, have you forgotten the Lord's instructions? I am in charge of the plan for the Eternal City this time."
As he said that, Lian Yi's exposed eyes shone with jealous light: "Don't rely on the Lord's preference for you and forget what we are going to do."
"Hmph, I have a name now, Liu Li." Liu Li said coldly: "I will complete the plan well without you reminding me."
"Haha, it's good that you haven't forgotten."
Lian Yi chuckled: "I almost thought you had forgotten your identity just now and let this kid touch you here."
"The Lord needs Lian Xin. If this boy ruins the plan because of your carelessness, even if it is you, the Lord will not forgive you lightly."
"Liansan, pay attention to your identity. From the time you became Liansan, Liu Li's identity has really died in the world."
To be continued...
