Chapter 560 [Domain - Second Gate] Shadow Puppet
This terrifying scene even overshadowed the pain caused by the ghost baby grabbing his leg.
Luo Weicheng's clothes were soaked with cold sweat.
But in the next second, with trembling hands, he threw something at the Ghost Mother!
It was a dark ceramic urn. If anyone who had been to 309 at the time had been there, they would have immediately recognized it as Feng Yao's strange object!
Just as he was going downstairs, Luo Weicheng took the urn from Feng Yao.
If it's only used once, the side effects of the urn are almost nonexistent for him.
At the same time, Luo Weicheng's lips suddenly drooped, and an extremely sorrowful expression appeared on his face.
"Woooo..."
He couldn't stop sobbing, but through his tears, his gaze suddenly shifted to the deformed baby at his feet.
With his other hand, he activated his own strange object.
Shadow puppetry
This is a very special strange object. It was this strange object that allowed Luo Weicheng and Wu Hui to avoid the tomb guardian ghost in advance when they entered the first door.
Although the name is Shadow Puppetry, it doesn't mean shadow puppetry. Instead, it's like a pair of human skin gloves covering Luo Weicheng's right hand.
His right hand suddenly became incredibly smooth, without a single line, just like a mannequin's hand.
This is [skin].
And [Shadow]...
Luo Weicheng grabbed the deformed baby with his right hand.
Suddenly, the world in his eyes shattered into fragments, like a mirror or silhouettes from a movie.
The fragments flew past his eyes at breakneck speed.
It was as if the baby's memories were forcibly passed through his mind, only so fast that they disappeared in an instant!
At the same time, intense pain exploded in Luo Weicheng's mind.
The deformed child seemed to sense something, and the expression on his face twisted in an instant.
It opened its mouth wide and bit Luo Weicheng's arm, tearing off a piece of flesh!
"hiss!"
Despite the excruciating pain in his head and arms, Luo Weicheng forced himself to focus all his attention on the images.
The dusty ground... This is an unfinished building, a memory from this moment, or perhaps just a few minutes ago.
This is not what Luo Weicheng is looking for!
In the dark closet, a woman is curled up in a corner. Is this Wu Hui from the perspective of a deformed child... or the previous one, but it doesn't matter!
No, no, these are not the images Luo Weicheng wanted.
However, it accounts for the vast majority of [Shadow], even 99%.
If he's lucky enough...
Only then, just like when I interacted with the interns before, could I glimpse a glimpse of the future!
Just then, Luo Weicheng suddenly felt a buzzing in his brain and saw an extremely bizarre scene.
It was a deformed baby crawling on the ground.
However, a bluish-purple arm grew out of its back.
Was the demon mother inside the demon infant's body before?
What the hell is this symbiotic thing?!
Before Luo Weicheng could think further, he saw several more images, including the ghost infant silently merging into Wu Hui's body without anyone noticing...
Then, they separated on their own...
why?
Luo Weicheng reflexively thought of Wu Hui's previous abdominal pain.
Could it be that Wu Hui's body couldn't withstand this bizarre nested structure...?
So, were deformed babies forced to leave?
Before he could think it through, a new scene [Shadow] made Luo Weicheng's pupils suddenly contract!
It's an incense burner.
The incense burner placed in Zhang Wei's office.
Through the ghost infant's memories, he finally caught a glimpse of the incense burner for a second. It contained three dark red incense sticks, not particularly thin, and with a somewhat strange texture.
But the screen immediately shook.
Focusing on the ashes in the incense burner, a wrinkled, wet little hand suddenly reached out from the burner!
Then, the baby's entire ugly body crawled out from inside.
But just then...
Like rewinding a tape, it shrank back again.
It was swallowed up by quicksand and buried in the ashes.
What does it mean?
It's already out, so why go back?
Suddenly, Luo Weicheng recalled the resentful look in the ghost baby's eyes a few seconds before the shadow ended.
and many more.
This is not a [shadow].
There are two!
As he pondered, images flashed through his mind again, including the ghost baby crawling out of the beauty salon and the ghost mother's outstretched hand...
This confirmed Luo Weicheng's suspicions.
Yes, they are two images linked together.
One image depicts the past, where a ghostly infant crawls from the mirror into reality through an incense burner.
Another possible future scenario is that the ghost baby returns to the incense burner once again!
The baby is the true entity among the two ghosts, because its mother grew from its body...
Therefore, to resolve this matter, we must obtain the incense burner and return the baby to the mirror world!
As soon as he confirmed this, Luo Weicheng's vision blurred.
The fragments disappeared.
His eyes then returned to the real world.
But it froze for two seconds—then the screen jerked and jumped.
It was as if someone had stolen two seconds of the world that Luo Weicheng saw.
Or, to put it another way, it's frame skipping.
This is a side effect of the shadow puppetry; it doesn't last forever, but it will pop up every now and then for a few hours.
After recovering, Luo Weicheng immediately looked at his right hand and saw that his once fair and jade-like hand had turned completely bluish-purple, as if it had been dipped into a dye vat.
"One minute, not even half the time it lasted last time..."
Luo Weicheng's heart sank. Just then, out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly saw a large patch of white ashes on the ground!
The urn was shaking violently.
Although the urn restricted the Ghost Mother's limbs, most of the ashes inside had already been scattered!
What's even more terrifying is that Luo Weicheng has no way to escape now...
The ghost baby had already bitten his arm tightly.
But that's it.
Luo Weicheng suddenly heard a weak yet familiar voice murmuring intermittently:
"come over......"
It's Wu Hui.
But it wasn't said to Luo Weicheng.
At the same moment that sound rang out, the deformed baby's teeth loosened.
"Come here, come to me..."
Wu Hui's voice grew softer and softer.
It's like a mother calling her child.
Her deformed body moved slowly, pulling herself up with her limbs, until she crawled to Luo Weicheng's side.
Trembling, he picked up the ghost baby.
Do not!
Luo Weicheng's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately realized what Wu Hui was about to do.
The next second, he saw Wu Hui shake her head slightly and whisper to him:
"Walk."
As soon as she finished speaking, the ghost baby's body merged into Wu Hui's body like a puddle of water.
Her consciousness vanished again in that instant, and her head drooped limply.
The ghost baby was taken away by Wu Hui.
Luo Weicheng stared at that pale face, his heart breaking. He and Wu Hui had been teammates for many years, so how could he possibly leave her alone with two ghosts?
but......
He was powerless to do anything without the incense burner.
Clenching his teeth, Luo Weicheng endured the pain and forced himself to stand up, feeling as if his entire spine had been broken.
But the thing he least wanted to see still happened.
The urn closed automatically with a snap.
The ghost mother's bluish-purple arm waved in mid-air, then gripped the wall and charged straight at Luo Weicheng!
But it was at this moment—
Behind Luo Weicheng, the door was suddenly kicked open.
A series of rapid and weak breaths sounded: "You use it, quickly!"
Something soft bumped into Luo Weicheng. He caught it instinctively, and a name immediately flashed into his mind:
【Bashe】
