Chapter 257 Big and Small
Late at night, the appearance of the ghost did not scare Li Yi, but made him eager to try.
He is different from the people in this world. He is not afraid of ghosts in his heart. He just has no means to deal with evil ghosts, so he cannot use his full strength. Now he has this cracked short stick in his hand, which can repel and injure evil ghosts. Then he has the confidence to confront evil ghosts head-on.
The strange child with a pale face, a round hat and a long gown was running barefoot on the ground at this moment. His speed was a bit strange. Each step looked normal, but he advanced several meters in just three or two steps. It seemed that the space was affected by the supernatural power. However, Li Yi did not find this incomprehensible scene strange.
Because he had seen similar supernatural powers before, he was not disturbed by these things at this moment. Instead, he controlled his qi and blood and released his internal energy.
boom!
With a bang, Li Yi rushed over instantly, holding the letter in one hand and a cracked short stick in the other, ready to complete the task of delivering the letter in an instant.
The sound attracted the attention of the strange child, and in an instant, the strange child turned his head and looked in the direction of Li Yi.
But it's too slow.
Li Yi was no longer at the place where he was just now. His speed was even faster than the reaction of the evil ghost. In just a moment, the cracked short stick in his hand had already landed on the body of the strange child.
I thought the little devil would be repelled instantly as I imagined, but an unexpected thing happened.
Although the cracked short stick hit the child, it did not cause any effect, just like an ordinary wooden stick hitting a ghost.
"How could that be?" Li Yi was shocked.
At this moment, the strange child's pale face turned towards him.
Li Yi was startled, and his body tore through the air and retreated quickly, immediately pulling ten meters away. He tightly grasped the cracked short stick in his hand, his face changing constantly. He couldn't understand why the supernatural item in his hand became ineffective?
He secretly exerted force with his hands and released a burst of strong energy.
The cracked stick cannot be destroyed in any way, which is one of the characteristics of supernatural objects.
So, the usage method is wrong?
Could it be that the instructions that the messenger on the second floor said before were false? Did he deliberately tell false information to deceive himself?
He is really a born messenger of evil. I didn't expect that he would trick me even after his death.
The strange child seemed to have locked onto Li Yi at this moment. The sound of hurried running rang out again. In his sight, the ghost ignored the others and rushed straight towards him.
"Since the method of use is wrong, try it a few more times, maybe it will work."
Seeing this, Li Yi still did not retreat. He was confident that he could deal with this evil ghost. If it really didn't work, he would instantly go to Liu Qingqing's side and let Liu Qingqing take action to force the evil ghost back.
But he doesn't want to do that now.
The strong energy burst out again and Li Yi rushed out again.
This time he was more cautious, leaving some spare energy and preparing to evacuate at any time.
really.
His speed made it impossible for the strange child in front of him to react. The moment he approached the child, he chopped with the cracked short stick in his hand continuously. At the same time, his body kept a subtle distance from the child, not daring to have any contact with the evil spirit.
I thought this attempt would be in vain again.
Until one day when the cracked stick in his hand fell on the head of the strange child, something strange happened.
The ghost was suddenly hit hard, just like an ordinary person being hit by a club. It fell to the ground instantly and then became motionless as if it had fainted.
"Success?"
Li Yi was startled, then he realized that this cracked short stick was only effective when hitting the opponent's head. Hitting other parts of the body was useless. This series of consecutive attempts allowed him to discover the correct way to use it.
"Very good, once you have mastered the correct method, you won't have to hide from evil spirits so much from now on."
He looked at the strange child lying on the ground in front of him and took a closer look.
It was discovered that this blow only made the ghost unconscious for about ten seconds. After ten seconds, the ghost showed a tendency to wake up, but it would take about thirty seconds in total to recover to a state of complete freedom of movement. In other words, such an attack could hold back a fierce ghost for nearly half a minute.
Taking advantage of this time, Li Yi stuffed the yellow letter directly into the ghost.
So, has this completed the mission of delivering the letter?
But he did not see the yellow letter disappear. Then he lit the letter, but found that the road leading to the ghost post office did not appear after the letter was burned.
This means that the letter delivery mission has not been completed.
"Why is this? It's clearly a ghost in front of me, and the letter has been sent, but why can't it be considered as completing the mission of delivering the letter?" Li Yi was a little confused, but there was not enough time for him to continue thinking, because the ghost in front of him who was knocked to the ground by his club began to move at this moment, and struggled to stand up again.
Is it possible to give it another blow?
Just when Li Yi was thinking this.
suddenly.
A heavy sound of footsteps suddenly sounded on the first floor of the collection hall. The footsteps seemed to reveal a hint of anger in their haste. Every step was powerful and heavy, and they ran towards this side quickly.
"Are there still ghosts? Li Yi, something is wrong, evacuate the collection hall immediately." At this time, Liu Qingqing's voice sounded in a corner of the darkness.
Apparently she also heard the second footsteps echoing.
The current situation has somewhat exceeded the previous plan. The best way at this moment is to withdraw first, and then find a way to continue delivering the letter. Anyway, there is still time to deliver the letter, and there is no need to continue fighting. In case of failure, maybe all of them will be wiped out.
"Help me resist the attack of this evil spirit, and I will find a way to deliver the letter." Li Yi's firm voice came at this moment, not wanting to miss this opportunity.
Both ghosts appeared.
The opportunity to send the letter is right here. If we miss the chance this time, it will be difficult to gather the two ghosts in the collection together next time. Maybe such a situation will not happen again in the remaining days.
"Okay, just one chance. I have to go regardless of success or failure." Liu Qingqing hesitated for a moment, then finally gritted her teeth and agreed.
Li Yi quickly took the letter back at this moment, and then quickly retreated while the strange child did not stand up.
At this time, the owner of the other footsteps had already stepped over the water on the last step and also reached the second floor. In the darkness was a tall figure, the ghost was also wearing a long gown and a round hat, his face was pale, like a corpse being buried, and he was dressed exactly like the child, except that one was an adult and the other was a child.
Two identical ghosts?
Li Yi was stunned for a moment.
Then he found something different. The big ghost's eye sockets were not empty, but there was a white eyeball. The eyeball moved and seemed to be able to see everything around it.
next moment.
The rotating eyeball suddenly stopped and locked onto a messenger on the second floor.
But the messenger on the second floor did not notice anything because he could not see anything in the darkness. He only knew that a ghost appeared in the area ahead.
However, Li Yi saw all this very clearly.
He realized that the messenger was being targeted by an evil spirit and might be attacked.
really.
The big ghost immediately ran over quickly, and the heavy footsteps kept echoing, stimulating everyone's senses.
Is a ghost coming?
The dark environment intensified everyone's fear. They could not see the approaching evil spirit, but they only knew that the footsteps were getting closer and closer, as if the ghost would appear before their eyes in the next moment.
"Liu Qingqing, block it, it's right in front of you." Li Yi stretched out his hand and moved Liu Qingqing directly to the path that the ghost must pass.
this moment.
Suddenly, a scarlet light emerged from Liu Qingqing's body, and a vague figure appeared in the light, as if a ghost was possessed by her.
The ghost that was rushing over was attacked by another supernatural force and stopped instantly.
Li Yi took this opportunity to stuff the yellow letter directly into the body of the evil ghost, and then he lit the letter again.
However, the situation that makes people feel like vomiting blood appeared again.
The road has not appeared yet and the letter has not been delivered successfully.
The little ghost failed to deliver the letter, and the big ghost also failed to deliver the letter.
At this moment, even if Li Yi was stupid, he reacted and couldn't help but say, "These ghosts are one big and one small. They look like two ghosts, but they are actually one ghost. We must let these two ghosts stay together to complete the mission of delivering the letter."
"What should we do now?" Liu Qingqing asked.
"Hold on a little longer." Li Yi took action again. His strength exploded instantly. His speed was faster than that of the evil ghost. He came to the side of the little ghost again.
The little ghost had just stood up at this moment, but then it was hit by a club again.
The cracked short stick fell on its head, causing it to fall to the ground again in an instant.
The moment he fell to the ground, Li Yi raised his leg and kicked him.
As he was afraid to have any contact with the ghost, the little ghost was blown away in an instant by the strong energy and smashed towards the ghost in front of Liu Qingqing. But at the moment of contact, Li Yi had already arrived and stuffed the letter over to him.
boom!
There was a loud crash, and the two ghosts fell to the ground together.
"Walk."
Li Yi no longer hesitated at this moment. He grabbed Liu Qingqing with one hand and punched with the other hand, smashing the nearest window, then rushed out in an instant.
The whole body of strong energy burst out, and a strong wind swept around.
Everyone was sucked out by this energy and left the second floor of the collection hall in an incredible way.
Guo You and his companions were unable to react in time and were already sent flying. They were terrified and worried that they might be killed by the fall.
But fortunately, there was only a lawn outside, and several people who fell to the ground did not die, but they just suffered some pains.
"Did it succeed?" Liu Qingqing asked hurriedly.
"I don't know." Li Yi didn't care about anything else at the moment and lit the letter: "The ghost has already targeted us. If we don't leave, all of us will die."
This time, the letter paper worked.
As the black letter paper burned, a winding path appeared before my eyes.
Sure enough, the previous guess was correct. The ghosts in this collection are two, one big and one small, and they need to be together to be considered a complete ghost.
But before the road appeared completely, two heavy footsteps, one big and one small, quickly sounded behind him.
"Li Yi, the ghost is coming towards us." Guo You's frightened voice echoed.
"Withdraw from the ghost post office." Li Yi stuck the black letter paper into the ground and held the cracked short stick in his hand, ready to withstand the final attack.
But the next moment.
A messenger on the second floor was knocked away by a huge force, and then fell to the ground with a deathly pale face, and his breath disappeared instantly.
Ok?
Li Yi's face suddenly changed. His spiritual perception didn't even catch how the evil ghost made its move.
"Ghost domain. This ghost has a ghost domain." Liu Qingqing said gritting her teeth.
As she finished her words, the lights near the surrounding green belts went out instantly.
A cold atmosphere enveloped the surroundings, and darkness came from all directions, engulfing everyone like a tide.
"Have the two ghosts, big and small, become stronger after being together?" This thought immediately popped up in Li Yi's mind.
