Half a Brick

Chapter 58 Breaking the Formation

Chapter 197

Originally, I thought that with my silver tongue, I could convince Ding Kan to give up on death after learning his story and take me out of here with him. But now, it seems unlikely. Although Ding Kan hopes for a miracle, although he hopes that fate will spare him, he will absolutely not try to escape himself.

The current situation is so contradictory. Ding Kan seeks death and seeks life. He doesn't want to kill the innocent, and he doesn't know how to get me out.

"I won't force you to dismantle the magic array, nor will I force you to reveal the location of the White Bone Saber. Now, forget that you are the architect of this place, completely regard yourself as an escaping person trapped in a desperate situation, use your wisdom, cooperate with me, and let's break out together, what do you say?"

Ding Kan smiled bitterly, "We can't break out. I've blocked all the paths to survival."

"So, if you can still leave here alive under these circumstances, that's fate, right?"

"Yes. But the heavens don't seem to have that intention. Although I have reasons for revenge, I didn't kill truly heinous people. They were just people who had grudges with me."

Seeing Ding Kan's posture, it seems impossible to persuade him to think of a solution with me, to utilize his intelligence as well. He doesn't want to break the situation himself, so he refuses to use his wisdom. Then, I can only make use of his skills.

I leaned against the window and looked outside, then calculated with half an abacus for a while, and then looked at Ding Kan with ill intentions, "Can you go out for a run and help me attract the attention of those ghosts outside? I need to do something. It doesn't need to be too long, about thirty seconds will do."

"Okay!" Ding Kan didn't even ask me what I was going to do specifically, and he agreed directly, standing up to walk out of the small wooden house.

"Wait, wait."

"Is there anything else?"

"Just a reminder, the magic array formed by my abacus beads is very small, and can only cover the area of this small wooden house. After you go out, you will become someone who doesn't know magic again."

"I know."

Ding Kan didn't hesitate at all, but I still nagged.

"Also, the ghosts outside are different from before. You just killed a batch, so the ghosts outside now are all strengthened, and their combat power is much stronger than before. This trip is very dangerous for you, be careful."

"I know, isn't it just thirty seconds? Is there anything else you need to say?"

Ding Kan was obviously annoyed by my nagging, so I didn't say anything more. After he rushed out of the cabin, I followed him out.

Ding Kan is really reliable. Knowing that I would follow him out, he not only arrogantly took the initiative to attack those ghosts, attracting their attention, but also took out a handful of Cinnabar boomerangs, throwing them around to help drive away the ghosts that attacked me. He was scratched by the ghosts several times, and his whole body was covered in blood, but he didn't even look at it.

Cinnabar is a very special substance, with very heavy yang energy, and naturally has a deterrent effect on Yin and evil ghosts. It doesn't need to be consecrated. Although the Minghan (Nether Cold) magic array can ban all the acquired mana that is refined later, the yang energy of the Cinnabar itself cannot be imprisoned. The supreme Yang Cinnabar still has a strong deterrent effect on ghosts.

If it was just to escape for his own life, Ding Kan would never use this boomerang. Now, it is to protect me that he is using the Cinnabar boomerang to clear the way for me.

I spent five seconds running to a large locust tree, swung the abacus and smashed it down on a section of the old root protruding from the ground. After a few smashes, that section of the old root was directly smashed off by me with the abacus. I didn't care whether there were wood thorns and debris, and tore open the roots and began to dig down with my bare hands.

The soil under the roots was icy cold, with a bone-chilling aura. My hands were instantly frozen numb. That cold air even went up my arms all the way to my chest. I felt a chill, which was simply fatal. I really don't know how Ding Kan used such an Yin White Bone Saber.

But this is my only chance to survive. I can't give up, absolutely not. In just a few seconds, I was almost frozen numb. I could only keep digging with my instincts. Finally, my numb fingers touched an extremely cold object. Even my numb fingers trembled again from the cold.

White Bone Saber, it really is a White Bone Saber with a sharpened blade stained with blood.

I suddenly grabbed down, but just as I held the hilt and wanted to pull the saber out, I regretted it. However, it was too late for regret.

Ding Kan's plan was indeed seamless. He had foreseen that he couldn't let go of the White Bone Saber and would uncontrollably look at the location where the White Bone Saber was buried. In order not to let the White Bone Saber be pulled out, and also not to let himself draw the saber and withdraw the array, he had also set up an ambush at the location where the saber was buried. As long as someone drew the saber, the person who drew the saber would die.

Damn it, I, Wan Qian, am really going to die here. I felt a chill in my heart, and the cold air directly attacked my heart. I couldn't even vomit blood.

At the same time, countless evil ghosts rushed towards me, preparing to eat my flesh alive while I still had a breath left.

Just when I thought I was going to die, my body was suddenly bumped away. Then, I saw Ding Kan, covered in blood, standing in front of me. The White Bone Saber flew out and hit his chest straight on.

"No!" I shouted, but it was too late.

The White Bone Saber did not pierce Ding Kan's chest, but the situation was worse than a direct stab. At the moment when the White Bone Saber flew out, Ding Kan's Minghan (Nether Cold) true energy recovered. His whole body's power collided with the White Bone Saber. The White Bone Saber was smashed to pieces, and Ding Kan spat out a mouthful of blood that shot half a meter high and collapsed to the ground.

The White Bone Saber is the array eye of the Minghan (Nether Cold) magic array. In order to enhance the power of the great array, Ding Kan directly buried his weapon. As long as this saber comes out, the subsequent problems will no longer be a problem. A gap has appeared in the great array, and it is a fatal gap. My Taoist magic is no longer imprisoned. After a few great magic spells, most of the ghosts were directly dispelled.

The abacus frame was thrown into the air, and the abacus beads used to set up the array immediately returned to their original positions automatically. After a quick calculation, the field was almost cleared.

I finished up as quickly as possible, picked up Ding Kan, and hurried back to the funeral shop.

Ding Kan's breath was weak, and he was on the verge of death.

"Wan Qian, you didn't die, that's good." After Ding Kan said this, he planned to close his eyes.

I quickly grabbed him and directly threw out the abacus, "Quickly say, you need Daoyao Xian (Pill Making Immortal) to heal you, and are willing to pay any reward, say it!"

I roared anxiously. Now he still has a breath left. As long as he makes a request, the little rabbits will have to take this business. But if he dies, even the immortals can't save him.
