After all, for evil creatures like vampires, the more human essence, energy and blood they suck, the stronger they will become, as if they were under a crazy growth spell, and their strength will soar exponentially.
Although Ah Fu was usually confident in his own skills, once the image of the demon that even the Holy Lord was wary of and specifically targeted appeared in his mind, and he imagined how powerful the demon would be after recovering its strength, he could not help but feel a chill down his spine and cold sweat quietly seeping out.
He knew clearly that if he was defeated, he would become a slave without independent consciousness and like a walking corpse, which would be more terrifying than facing death directly.
It's true that he craves power and is willing to pay many prices to become stronger, but losing his own will is definitely not within his consideration. That is the bottom line that he cannot touch no matter what.
"If you keep buzzing in my ears like an annoying fly and disturbing my actions, then get out of this gloomy castle alone!"
Ah Fu's eyes were wide open, like two balls of blazing flames, staring straight at Ah Fen. His eyes were like materialized sharp arrows and pressure, which made Ah Fen's body shrink suddenly, his legs became slightly weak, and he almost collapsed to the ground.
"Yes, yes, I know."
Ah Fen immediately put away his timid look, put on a face full of smirk, nodded and bowed, and fawned: "You are a tough guy who can kick Jackie Chan down with one kick. This skill and courage, who in our Black Hand Gang doesn't know, who doesn't know? Of course, I feel most at ease following you, don't you agree?"
"Humph!"
The corners of Ah Fu's mouth rose slightly, revealing a barely perceptible sense of pride. He narrowed his eyes, obviously enjoying this just-right compliment.
Ah Fen's "flattery" hit the nail on the head, accurately hitting the little vanity in his heart.
"If you keep talking, I'll use you as bait to feed the vampires to buy time for us to escape. Don't blame me for being ruthless."
"I see, I see..."
Ah Fen smiled more and more obsequiously, nodded his head like pounding garlic, and his body trembled slightly unconsciously, for fear that Ah Fu would be unhappy and really leave him to the vampire.
Although the castle carries a long history and has a smell of oldness, vicissitudes, decay and decline, it is not grand in scale.
Ah Fu was like a courageous and resolute vanguard general, leading the charge with his head held high and chest puffed out, and the group followed closely behind him, tacitly cooperating with each other and not choosing to disperse.
They quickly walked around the first floor along the winding, maze-like corridors.
Every time they opened a door, they were greeted only by piles of disorganized debris, dust as thick as a blanket that choked their noses, and spider threads as dense as spider webs that looked like eerie curtains. After a thorough search, they found nothing.
Time is like a cunning fish that swims quietly, passing by silently, and an hour is gone in a flash.
The eerie and depressing atmosphere remained the same, like sticky ink, tightly wrapping everyone, but there was no abnormality at all. Everyone's originally tense and explosive hearts unconsciously relaxed, and the expressions on their faces changed from highly alert to a little lazy.
Chapter 141 Ah Fu!
"How to do?"
Someone muttered quietly, with a hint of confusion and helplessness in his voice.
"There's no hope on the first floor. It looks like it's on the second floor."
Others echoed, and after whispering to each other for a while, they turned their eyes to Ah Fu tacitly.
At this moment, Ah Fu seemed to have become the tacit backbone of everyone in this darkness and confusion, his eyes full of expectations and dependence.
"The Lord has said that whoever finds the coffin and opens it will receive a piece of gold worth 500,000, plus 500,000 in cash. The rest of the people will also receive 100,000 in cash. This is a reward from the boss in addition to their wages, so you don't have to hand it in."
Ah Fu's expression was indifferent, as if he had thrown out an extremely tempting bait, and ripples instantly appeared on the calm water surface.
"When did the Holy Lord say that? Why don't we know about it?"
Atun asked with a puzzled look on his face, his eyes full of confusion and curiosity.
"Humph, it has nothing to do with you. You just need to know that if you find the coffin and open it, you will gain a lot of benefits."
Ah Fu said this coldly, as if he was a majestic emperor who could not be questioned, and walked towards the stairs without giving Atun any chance to ask further questions. His aura was so strong that people dared not say anything.
The charm of money far outweighed fear at this moment. After a brief hesitation, everyone gritted their teeth, clenched their fists, and followed Ah Fu closely towards the dilapidated, creaking stairs.
This time, everyone followed particularly closely, no longer following from a distance like before. Every time they came to a door, they no longer let Ah Fu go forward alone to "detect mines", which showed everyone's determination.
"Squeak-"
The stairs have been in disrepair for many years, like an old man on his last legs, unable to bear the weight.
A group of big men stepped forward, making sharp and piercing sounds like ghosts howling and wolves howling, which echoed in the silent castle, adding a bit of horror.
Ah Fu led the way steadily, calculating secretly in his mind.
The Holy Lord specifically pointed out that the righteous wizard and his family gave everything they had and sacrificed their lives to seal the vampire, and with the blessing of the mysterious holy lock, it seems that the seal is as solid as a rock.
As long as these idiots don't touch other things, there is a high probability that nothing will go wrong when they encounter the coffin.
But it is better to be safe than sorry. Many heroes have failed because of momentary carelessness. He, Black Tiger Afu, does not want to repeat the same mistake.
Many of the doors on the second floor were incomplete, as if they had been cruelly bitten by the beast of time. In the darkness, the door openings were like the mouths of giant beasts that were ready to devour people, hideous and terrifying, emitting a faint chill.
In addition, the coffin was most likely hidden here, and the danger was self-evident. Ah Fu became more cautious, as if he was walking on a knife edge with every step.
The others' hearts were pounding like drums, they were extremely anxious, their palms were full of sweat, and their legs felt as heavy as if they were filled with lead.
"Let's go."
Ah Fu gave the order softly, his voice was like a gentle breeze, but it was firm and could not be disobeyed.
Everyone nodded and moved forward together, stepping very lightly for fear of disturbing the evil spirits lurking in the castle.
"Squeak-"
The door of the first room was closed. Ah Fu slowly reached out his hand, as cautiously as if he was defusing a bomb, and grasped the handle.
With a little force, the door hinge squeaked in protest and dust fell, blinding everyone.
"next."
Ah Fu coughed lightly, waved his hand to disperse the dust, and led everyone to the next room.
Several rooms in a row were empty, with only shabby tables and chairs scattered around lifelessly, like abandoned children forgotten by time.
Everyone frowned, their eyes fixed on the tightly closed door at the end of the corridor, as if there was a shocking secret concerning life and death hidden behind it.
Ah Fu looked back and saw that everyone was facing a formidable enemy, but no one was willing to step forward to open the door. He shook his head helplessly and sighed softly: "The road of the strong is ultimately lonely."
He held a flashlight in his left hand, the bright light was like a sharp blade piercing the darkness.
With his right hand tightly gripping the hilt of the knife, his muscles tense, as if a divine weapon was ready to be unsheathed at any time. He approached the door cautiously step by step, signaling the people behind him to focus the light there to ensure that the situation inside the room could be seen at a glance the moment the door was opened.
Arriving at the door, Ah Fu took a deep breath, as if he wanted to absorb all the courage into his lungs, slowly grasped the handle, and gently pushed it.
"Squeak-"
A sharp sound broke the silence, and just as the door opened a crack, something unexpected happened!
"Shh!"
A huge force like a tidal wave hit the door, and it was instantly torn into pieces. The air was filled with sawdust and smoke, as if it was a sudden sandstorm.
Ah Fu was unable to dodge and was dragged into the house. His figure instantly disappeared in the rolling dust, as if he was mercilessly swallowed by a vortex of darkness.
"Giggle cluck!"
A shrill roar that seemed to come from the Netherworld suddenly sounded. Everyone's hair stood on end, their scalps tingled, and their souls seemed to tremble.
"boom!"
Then, the sound of fierce fighting was heard in the house, tables and chairs were overturned, objects were broken, the sound was deafening, as if a thrilling battle was taking place, and then everything fell into silence.
The incident happened too fast and too suddenly. Everyone stood there in a daze, their minds went blank, as if they were under a spell.
"Afu? What's going on in there?"
Atun was the first to come to his senses. His brows were twisted into a knot and he yelled into the house, his voice full of anxiety and concern.
"quick......"
Ah Fu's voice just started, but he hasn't finished speaking yet.
"Grrrrrr!"
The creepy scream rang out again, and the sound of fighting broke out, like the roar of a devil.
"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up! While Ah Fu is holding back that evil creature, quickly open the coffin and run away!"
Atun shouted at the top of his voice, as if blowing a charge horn, awakening the hesitant people.
"that's right!"
"That's right. Once the coffin is opened, even if the vampire escapes, let Ah Fu take the rear. Let's run!"
"Don't talk nonsense. Ah Fu can't hold on for much longer. Once the coffin is opened, we have to take him with us!"
After a few words of argument, they gritted their teeth, grasped their weapons, and rushed into the house, shouting, "Afu! We are here to help you!"
Lasu and Afen pulled Zhou and rushed in first, like warriors rushing to the battlefield, without fear of life or death.
Deep in this eerie castle that seems to have been cursed for a thousand years, Ah Fu is like a mad lion that is forced into a desperate situation but becomes more and more ferocious, and his moves are like a surging river, pouring out continuously.
"Dragon Claw Hand, Lotus Floating!"
His eyes were wide open, and there seemed to be two clusters of blazing red flames jumping in his eyes. His roar echoed throughout the house, and his palms were like dragon claws made of steel. They stretched out swiftly, and the wind from his claws whistled. Wherever they passed, the air seemed to be cut by sharp blades, making a hissing sound.
His figure is agile and light, and he moves gracefully like a lotus swaying in the wind. Every step he takes is to accurately avoid the opponent's fierce and killing moves, showing his extraordinary skills.
"Scorpion paw, kangaroo jump!"
In a flash, his palm technique suddenly changed, his palm concave inward, fingertips tensed, just like a scorpion's tail raised high, with tricky and fierce force, stabbing at the enemy's vitals like a poisonous stinger.
Chapter 142 Crow takes a plane!
His steps were agile, like a kangaroo leaping, strong and powerful yet agile, and when he landed, the surrounding bricks and stones shook slightly.
"Two phoenixes fill my ears, and walnuts smash my head!"
Before the roar ended, Ah Fu's fists were wrapped with strong winds that could split mountains and rocks, and they slammed into the sides like two cannonballs, as if two phoenixes with the force of thunder and lightning were swiftly pouring into the opponent's ears. The momentum seemed to crush all obstacles in front of him, it was extremely terrifying.
Ah Fen and his companions were like a group of anxious adventurers who had entered the devil's realm. As soon as they rushed into the house, they were shocked by Ah Fu's series of angry roars and fierce moves that sounded like the ringing of a huge bell, and their eardrums were hurt as if they were hit by a heavy hammer.
"The mouse steals the cheese, the antelope jumps!"
Ah Fu's attack showed no sign of stopping. He suddenly turned around, like a cunning and clever mouse, and attacked the opponent's weakness with a clear target.
Then he leaped into the air as lightly as an antelope, with a nimble figure, drawing a perfect arc in the air, creating a gust of wind that made everyone's hair dance wildly.
"Flying kick in the air."
His moves followed smoothly, he jumped high up and kicked in the air with one foot. The soles of his feet seemed to be wrapped in a black whirlwind, and the air seemed to explode where he kicked, making crackling sounds with astonishing power.
"Supernova burning!"
