Chapter 290: Fighting in the Water Pond
The reason why Lin Hao wanted to bring them with him, besides to protect them, was more importantly to see if he could continue to gain skills from Chu Renmei.

It also means to test Chu Renmei's trump card.

As for their safety issues, Lin Hao already had a permanent solution.

"Don't worry, I've got a solid plan!"

Unexpectedly, at this time, Carrot Head gritted his teeth and said:

"Things have come to this point. If I stick my head out, I'll get hurt. I might as well follow Ah Hao and try to find a way out."

"Besides, that female ghost will find us sooner or later. Do we have any choice?"

After hearing what Carrot Head said, Lin Hao sighed in his heart and was somewhat hesitant. In fact, as long as Lin Hao put them into the space, they could naturally escape the disaster, but this conflicted with the plan he had made.

Finally, two words came out of his mouth: "Let's go!"

Afterwards, Lin Hao ignored them and went out.

They looked at each other and knew that this was the only way to survive. Annie, Big Arm, Xiaobi, and Carrot Head all followed Lin Hao and left.

The four then took a taxi and paid a high price to have the driver take them to Huangshan Village.

When the taxi arrived not far from the village entrance, the driver refused to get any closer. Since there was no other way, they could only walk to Huangshan Village.

On the road, Dabi asked cautiously:
"Ah Hao, aren't you going to find the water pond? Why do you want to go to Huangshan Village?"

At this time, Luobotou said, "I know, the pond should be behind Huangshan Village!"

Then several people followed silently, passing through a forest and a mountain, and turning a few corners, but after walking for ten minutes, they still hadn't entered Huangshan Village. It should have arrived in four or five minutes.

As he was walking, Lin Hao realized something was wrong. It was not like this when he came here this morning. There was obviously a problem.

Then Lin Hao stopped, and the people around him also stopped. Lin Hao thought of a possibility in his mind, could it be the legendary ghost wall, so Lin Hao silently said in his heart:
"Solidify the skills you are currently exposed to!"

Ding: "Skills are solidifying!"

Ding, get the skill: "Illusion!"

Illusion: "You can use mental power to create an illusory space. This space can deceive ordinary people with low mental power, causing them to lose their correct judgment of the real environment around them, and trap the target in it for a period of time."

Special reminder: "Each point of mental power can maintain the illusion for 1 minute. If the host's mental power is detected to be 1 points, the target can be trapped for 13 minutes. If the time exceeds, fate points can be used to extend the time. 13 fate point is exchanged for 1 minute."

This skill looks pretty good and can be used in many situations, especially when ambushing people.

After reading the skill description, Lin Hao immediately knew that this was another work of Chu Renmei.

Then Lin Hao turned around and used his Yin-Yang Eyes to look at the four people he brought over. He saw that within the range of the Yin-Yang Eyes, the place they were in was actually the ancestral hall of Huangshan Village.

And there are 5 of them. Wait~! 5 people?

Lin Hao was startled and jumped away suddenly. There was unexpectedly an extra "person" in their team. Upon closer inspection, he found that it was actually a ghost.

Looking at the ghost following them, Lin Hao was thoughtful. How did Chu Renmei manage to use this illusion ability on him without him noticing? Even he fell for it?

Could it be that this ghost was used as a medium?

Lin Hao didn’t understand it for the time being, but he didn’t intend to delve into it any further, so he solved the current problem first.

Lin Hao couldn't help but find it a little funny to see this ghost following them, constantly flying around them and making scary gestures to scare them.

Except for himself, who can see him through the Yin-Yang Eyes, no one else can see him, so he doesn't know what the purpose of this ghost is!

But Lin Hao saw that the few people were still in the illusion. Suddenly, Lin Hao discovered that the ghost blew a breath at Xiaobi, and then Xiaobi walked to the side.

Lin Hao shook his head. It seemed that this function was not available in his solidified illusion skills, but Lin Hao didn't worry about it.

Watching the ghost blowing air to other people, and then several people trying to continue walking in confusion, Lin Hao prepared to break this environment, but Lin Hao didn't know how.

Fortunately, Lin Hao had already given the four people a mental mark in advance, so there was nothing to worry about. He could just arrange an illusion.

However, Lin Hao suddenly thought, could he also use the environment to interfere with the other illusion? Would something pleasant happen?
So Lin Hao directly opened the illusion. Have fun first... No, study first!
Sure enough, as Lin Hao used the illusion skill, the illusion that Chu Renmei had set up before suddenly flashed with a gloomy light. At the same time, Lin Hao only felt a flash before his eyes, and then the scene around him changed completely.

At this time, not only Lin Hao, but also Dabi and the others finally woke up.

Then the few of them looked around and found that they had already entered the territory of Huangshan Village and had been circling around the village.

Lin Hao looked at the ghost that was still following them again, and Lin Hao realized that this ghost was not one of the five ghosts he had released in the morning.

Afterwards, Lin Hao used his skills to check his condition and discovered that this ghost should be Chu Renmei who controlled them.

Then, Lin Hao, just like he did in the morning, created an illusion in the ghost's consciousness that the ghost was eaten by Chu Renmei. As a result, the ghost was liberated by Lin Hao and collapsed directly.

The other four people saw Lin Hao there, dancing and gesticulating, not knowing what he was doing. However, they soon realized that they were saved by Lin Hao again.

Seeing that they woke up, Lin Hao said again:

"Let's continue on our journey! Since there are ghosts blocking our way, it seems that Chu Renmei is afraid of us, so we must cheer up!"

As he spoke, Lin Hao kept his Yin-Yang eyes open, looking at the abandoned Huangshan Village, and Lin Hao felt that this place was spooky and cold.

Lin Hao did not delay and went straight to the pond in the back mountain.

Chu Renmei's original burial site was there, and an aircraft signal tower was being built there recently, so the body, which had no tombstone and was not claimed by relatives, was just thrown nearby at random.

As a result, it rained at night and the body was washed into a pond, which happened to be the water intake site of the water plant, supplying drinking water to several nearby villages.

Sometimes Lin Hao couldn’t help but wonder, what would happen if Chu Renmei’s bath water was drunk by millions of people in Hong Kong?

Will all the people in Hong Kong be killed? If so, will Chu Renmei be too busy to handle it?

Lin Hao shook his head and put aside these meaningless thoughts.

Afterwards, Lin Hao and his group of five successfully arrived at the edge of the pond. Under Lin Hao's Yin-Yang eyes, this pool of clear water looked like a pool of ink, so black that it made people tremble with fear.

The four people standing by the pond had a headache, thinking about how to get to the bottom of the pond and find the bracelet for Chu Renmei to wear. It was impossible to jump into the water directly and dive to the bottom of the water to find Chu Renmei's body?
The air is filled with yin energy and the water is extremely cold and bone-chilling. If I jump in, not to mention whether I can find Chu Renmei, my body won't be able to withstand it.

At this time, Dabi looked at the pool and felt a chill. He swallowed unconsciously and said:

"Ah Hao, if we jump down, we will definitely be drowned or frozen to death. Why don't we wait until tomorrow? I will find professional divers to help us then!"

Then Xiaobi looked at Lin Hao unconsciously, paused, nodded and said:

"What Big Arm said makes sense. Look at how spooky it is. Why don't we wait until tomorrow morning to look for her bracelet and body!"

Annie also looked at Lin Hao worriedly, the meaning was self-evident!

However, Lin Hao was well prepared, so he said to everyone: "Don't worry! I'm well prepared!"

As he spoke, Lin Hao took out a searchlight and shone the strong light into the pool of water, which suddenly became bright.

At the same time, a ping-pong ball suddenly appeared in Lin Hao's hand. The purpose was of course to collect the water in the pool into the space.

You have to know that Lin Hao knew the plot. In the original drama, A Qiang also went into the water to find Chu Renmei's body, but was drowned. Lin Hao didn't want to be a scapegoat.

Then Lin Hao put one hand into the pool, and instantly the water level in the pool dropped by more than half, visibly to the naked eye.

Dabi and others looked at Lin Hao in surprise and doubt. They did not expect that Lin Hao actually had such ability. They immediately felt that there was hope for them to save themselves.

Then everyone looked at Lin Hao expectantly, but at this moment, everyone heard a mournful Cantonese voice:

"My lover is in a happy mood, while I am heartbroken..."

When everyone heard the voice, their hearts trembled, but Lin Hao was unmoved. He continued to walk to the center of the pool, ready to continue absorbing the water inside.

Of course, it looks like this to outsiders, but Lin Hao has been watching the actions of these four people and Chu Renmei.

Sure enough, as Chu Renmei's singing sounded, Lin Hao sensed through the mental mark that the four people in Big Arm were controlled again, so Lin Hao took the opportunity to use the solidification skill again.

However, the system prompt was still "Skill repeated, solidification failed". When Lin Hao saw such a familiar prompt, he knew that the wool had probably been taken away.

Fortunately, the area of ​​this pool is not very large, and the stream water does not flow very fast. The water surface area is about 700 to 800 square meters, but I don’t know how deep the water is.

His Traceless Extension Spell can expand a ping-pong ball to more than two thousand cubic meters, so three or four at most would be enough.

Therefore, Lin Hao was very fast. When Lin Hao jumped down to test it, the water was less than 1 meter deep. So, in just a moment, all the water in the pool was collected into the ping-pong ball.

At this time, the four people who were under control were temporarily subdued remotely by Lin Hao using mental marking before they could get close to Lin Hao.

Afterwards, Lin Hao ignored Chu Renmei who pounced on him, because she couldn't hurt him anyway. At this moment, Lin Hao saw a human-shaped object in the middle of the pool.

Lin Hao guessed that this should be his target, so Lin Hao went straight to Chu Renmei's body.

Suddenly, a gust of cold wind blew around him. Chu Renmei suddenly appeared in front of Lin Hao and rushed towards him!

At this time, a strong evil aura that could turn into water emanated from Chu Renmei's body and wrapped around Lin Hao's body!
Then the surroundings began to get colder, and Lin Hao even felt that the breath he exhaled was about to freeze.

"I wonder if the phoenix was so happy to fly with wings, and if the butterfly is so ungrateful. Brother, you know it yourself, and you still regret that your old love is gone..."

"Damn, this Cantonese opera is coming again!" Lin Hao immediately got goose bumps all over his body, and everything in front of him had changed completely without him noticing.

Lin Hao knew that he had entered Chu Renmei’s illusion, and he was not afraid either.

In this illusion, a group of people lined up in a row. The people at the back held the shoulders of the people in front. All of them lowered their heads and walked towards Lin Hao with slow steps.

There were about a dozen people, all with their eyes closed and pale faces. The leader was holding a lantern with a big word "甸" (Dedication) on it.

In the original drama, this scene can be said to be one of the most frightening plots in the entire movie, and Lin Hao suffered greatly from it back then.

Even though he had reviewed this drama before traveling through time, this part of the plot still made Lin Hao feel a little nauseous.

At this moment, I saw that in this line of people, young and old, all walked towards me with their heads lowered.

Suddenly, they all raised their heads, their pale faces, black eye sockets, and evil smiles.

Although I didn't recognize the people in front, the ones behind were all familiar faces, including Carrot Head, Big Arms, Xiaobi, Annie, and the last one was exactly my own appearance.

If an ordinary person saw this situation, he would probably be scared to death if he saw another "self" giving him a sinister smile.

Seeing that person who looked exactly like himself was walking towards him, Lin Hao's heart moved and he no longer paid attention to this so-called self.

Because Lin Hao sensed from the mental marks of the four people on his big arm that Chu Renmei was weaving illusions and wanted to use them to attack him from behind.

Lin Hao smiled faintly. Fortunately, he had figured out a way to break the illusion before and also left a back door for the four people.

Lin Hao directly used the illusion skill, and then a gloomy light flashed in front of his eyes. Lin Hao only felt a flash before his eyes, and then the scene around him changed completely.

When Lin Hao saw the searchlight again and the four men with large arms who were encircling him, he knew that he had escaped from the illusion.

Lin Hao did not dare to be distracted, and immediately used his illusion skills to enter their consciousness space and burst the illusion woven by Chu Renmei. Then the four of them woke up again.

Lin Hao no longer paid attention to them, but continued to head towards the place where Chu Renmei's body was suspected to be.

Seeing that none of her methods worked, Chu Renmei immediately ran to Lin Hao, lifted her hair, and faced Lin Hao with her bloody mouth and rolled her eyes.

"It seems like you really have no other tricks left!" Looking at Chu Renmei who was trying to scare him, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "This should be your last act of stubbornness!"

Lin Hao shook his head and directly put her body into the space.

However, to Lin Hao's disappointment, Chu Renmei seemed unaffected.

Lin Hao had always thought that the source of Chu Renmei's power should be her corpse. As long as her corpse was put into the space, everything should be fine!

"Could it be that my guess is wrong?" Lin Hao muttered to himself.
