Chapter 2041 The Escaped Old Man
Just when Yang Jian and the old man in the painting were at a critical moment, Wang Yong entered the painting.
At Yang Jian's reminder, Wang Yong immediately rushed to the old man.
After arriving beside the old man, he did not hesitate at all and immediately reached out to grab the axe.
Then he began to fight for it.
Perhaps even the old man did not expect that Yang Jian would have a helper, especially this helper was ready to take the axe in his hand.
The black-faced old man suddenly became extremely vicious;
Combined with the old man's arm suddenly shaking violently, he actually broke free from the ghost's restraints for a short time, and then swung the axe in his hand towards Wang Yong.
Although the old man's attack was very sudden, Wang Yong was an experienced messenger after all, with sufficient experience in fighting against evil spirits.
In addition, Wang Yong's strength was also very strong.
So Wang Yong blocked the old man's attack.
At the moment when the old man's axe chopped down, a figure of an evil spirit appeared in front of Wang Yong, and the evil spirit stood in front of him.
Blocked the attack of the axe.
However, the axe was indeed not an ordinary thing, and its sharpness was far beyond imagination.
The body of the evil ghost in front of Wang Yong was actually torn open with a huge hole, and it could not even recover in a short time.
"Dare you still attack?"
Although the sudden outburst of the old man was beyond Yang Jian's expectations, Yang Jian still reacted in time.
While the old man was attacking Wang Yong, Yang Jian seized the opportunity and immediately used the ghost shadow and ghost hand to grab the other arm of the old man.
A fierce color flashed in Yang Jian's eyes;
The next second;
The old man's arm that was grabbed was removed like a building block.
This is the splicing supernatural power of the ghost shadow.
With the suppression of the ghost hand, it can succeed in one fell swoop.
The old man who suffered a severe injury still did not say a word.
The sinister color in his eyes became more and more intense.
At this moment, Yue Li's figure appeared in this room.
Although Yue Li did not take action immediately, but observed the surrounding environment, after Wang Yong's experience just now.
The old man seemed to know that Yue Li was also Yang Jian's helper.
The old man was already at a disadvantage in a one-on-two situation, and now there was another one. He immediately gave up the fight with Yang Jian.
Then, in the surprised eyes of everyone, he turned around and ran, quickly pushed open the black door and quickly moved away.
Wang Yong subconsciously wanted to chase him out.
But at this moment, Yue Li suddenly stopped him and said:
"Don't chase."
Wang Yong stopped immediately after hearing this.
At this moment, he suddenly realized that his behavior just now was a bit reckless.
The old man just now almost split his ghost with an axe. If he chased him rashly, he might be killed.
Thinking of this, Wang Yong couldn't help but feel a little scared.
But then a trace of regret suddenly appeared on his face:
"What a pity, it would have been better if I could have removed the hand holding the axe just now."
Hearing this, Yue Li couldn't help shaking his head, and then walked to the two of them;
"You underestimated that old man too much. If I'm not mistaken, the old man had actually been holding back, and was trying to trick Yang Jian.
It's just that you showed up and broke his plan, and you tried to take the axe, so he had to attack you;
Otherwise, the axe just now should have been chopped towards Yang Jian."
Although Yue Li entered the oil painting later than Wang Yong, before entering the oil painting, he had been observing the situation inside through the oil painting.
So he could make an accurate judgment.
After listening to Yue Li's words, Wang Yong couldn't help but look at Yang Jian.
Yang Jian nodded immediately;
"Yes, the old man just now did want to trick me, but I also held back and was also on guard against him."
After saying that, he touched his forehead.
Since entering the oil painting, the first thing Yang Jian did was to sense his own situation and determine whether the ability of the evil spirit in his body could be used smoothly.
Fortunately, nothing was affected, whether it was the ghost hand, the ghost shadow, or the ghost eye.
Yang Jian had not used the ghost eye just now, just to guard against the old man.
Or to be more precise, when the old man wanted to trick Yang Jian, Yang Jian was also thinking about using the ghost eye to trick the old man.
It was just that Wang Yong's sudden intrusion disrupted the calculations of Yang Jian and the old man.
Yang Jian did not blame Wang Yong for this.
Because Wang Yong did not know his thoughts, not to mention that Wang Yong took the initiative to enter the oil painting to help him.
Yang Jian could not blame Wang Yong even more.
But he looked at Yue Li with some doubts;
"Why did you come in too?"
What really puzzled Yang Jian was that Yue Li, who had not made any other moves, would take the initiative to enter the oil painting at this time?
Yang Jian did not believe that Yue Li was worried that he would be killed by the old man.
After all, just like Yang Jian knew how powerful Yue Li was, Yue Li also knew his strength, and it was definitely not something that an old man in the oil painting could fight against.
Yue Li naturally knew Yang Jian's doubts, and said casually:
"I felt that the things behind the oil painting were very interesting, so I went in to take a look, maybe I could find something interesting."
Although his tone was very casual, there was a hint of strangeness in his eyes.
When he was observing the oil painting at close range, Yue Li had some suspicions in his mind that he needed to enter to verify.
While Yue Li and Yang were talking, Wang Yong had already digested the information he had just received.
At this time, he also realized why Yue Li had spoken to stop him from chasing the old man.
Since the old man met Yang Jian just now, then the seemingly unbeatable escape just now might be part of a conspiracy.
Even a trap.
Once they chase him without any precautions, they are likely to fall into the old man's trap.
"I didn't expect that the old man in the oil painting would be so weird and scheming?" Wang Yong took a deep breath subconsciously;
Then a trace of doubt suddenly appeared on his face:
"So, what kind of existence are the characters in this oil painting? Are they humans? Or ghosts?"
After hearing this question, Yue Li and Yang Jian stopped chatting immediately.
After Yang Jian was silent for a while, he said somewhat complicatedly:
"I'm not sure about anything else, but the fact that the old man just now had such a scheming point of view shows that he must be a ghost."
Although Yang Jian has also encountered some wise ghosts, they are all very different from the old man just now.
Although the old man had a cold supernatural aura all over his body, he acted more like a human being.
This is still very different from the behavior of a wise ghost.
After listening to Yang Jian's words, Yue Li added:
"Although I am sure that the old man is not a ghost, he is definitely not a human being."
Even though Yue Li didn't have close contact with the old man just now, there was no direct confrontation.
But he still discovered the old man's abnormality through observation.
"It is indeed not a human being." Yang Jian also nodded at this time;
While speaking, Yang Jian looked at the arm that had just been dismembered from the old man's body;
The entire arm is not flesh and blood at all, it looks like wood, and it also looks like it is painted, inactive and lifeless;
In short, it cannot be a human body.
