A Crowd of Evil Spirit Lines up to Confess to Me

"We really have nowhere else to go." Gu Wuji looked at the old man and said sincerely, "I can only trouble you..."

Seeing this, the old man just shook his head and sighed: "Since you insist, come with me."

Then everyone followed, and Qi Yunxiu touched the hoe on the ground behind everyone, with a slightly surprised look in his eyes.

——

It didn't take long for the crowd to enter the village. There is a sense of dilapidation here, and it looks so desolate that it even makes one wonder if there is anyone living there.

As far as the eye can touch, there are buildings with doors and windows closed, and there is no sound at all. It's just getting dark now, so it should not be so early to rest.

As for the red light they saw before, it was from the red lanterns hanging outside these buildings, and because of this, they could barely see the road in the village.

"You'd better not make a sound." The old man warned. Everyone was still in awe of him, and immediately nodded.

Going forward for a while, the strange feeling became even stronger. In this seemingly abandoned village, there are red silk and red lanterns hanging everywhere, but this supposedly festive thing feels creepy here.

Gu Wuji had already understood it after reading it. It was estimated that it was prepared for the ghost marriage in the system prompt.

"Old man, are you holding a happy event here?" Gu Wuji asked.

The old man's face was a little ugly, his expression was quite complicated, and he was a little scared, but also a little unbearable, and finally said in an evasive tone: "This is not something you outsiders should be involved in. Things! I have a rest tonight and hurry up and leave tomorrow."

Gu Wuji couldn't even ask, and the others naturally didn't dare to ask after seeing the previous picture of Xiao Cheng hitting the wall, and they closed their mouths one after another.

Only Qi Yunxiu, who was following behind, looked at the surrounding roads with a dignified expression on his face, and finally said coldly, "It's best not to touch these lanterns."

"Why?" A man who looked like a student said in a low voice, and after being glanced at by Qi Yunxiu, he took a step back in fright, but Xiao Cheng gave him an encouraging look, and he immediately got up his courage, "Who knows Do you want to kill us, that's what you said!"

"Heh." Qi Yunxiu's eyes were sarcastic, "Then I won't stop you if you want to touch it."

Others didn't dare to speak immediately, how could they have rashly encountered those strange things before they could find out what happened.

When Gu Wuji was looking at the surrounding environment, he suddenly felt that he was being noticed by some intense gaze. He turned his head and saw that among the surrounding buildings, the windows of a room had been lightly closed at some point in time. Pushing away a part of it, a pair of eyes stared straight at him from the gap, with a terrifying feeling, and everyone behind him who also noticed this scene took a deep breath.

But when he wanted to take a closer look, the window was directly closed, as if he was dreaming what he had just seen.

"Old man, who is this family?" Gu Wuji adhered to the fine tradition of asking if he had anything.

The old man shook his head and only whispered: "Don't look at it, this is not what you should pay attention to."

Gu Wuji turned his head to look again, and then turned his head. Although the eyes just now gave people a terrifying feeling, he always felt that... he seemed to see the meaning of asking for help.

...

The crowd almost straddled the entire village before arriving at their destination. This is a brick house with a mountain wall behind it. It is a little further away from other buildings. It looks very dilapidated, and there are no red lanterns hanging above. . The old man pushed the door open and let everyone in.

Inside and outside are very consistent, but also very rundown, and the furniture inside is creaky when sitting on it.

"There are three rooms here, you can choose any place to rest." The old man stooped and walked to the room next to him. He seemed to be getting older and closed the door with difficulty.

The other people did not relax at all, and their expressions were very solemn. After closing the door, it could be seen from the small window in the house that the outside world was dark and the fog was spreading, and they obviously couldn't go out.

"Don't worry so much." Xiao Cheng stood up at this moment, looked at everyone and said, "We are all people who have passed through so many dungeons. Even if we encounter danger, we are able to deal with it."

The others also calmed down when they heard this, only Qi Yunxiu snorted and entered the room next to him.

They didn't dare to eat the food in this house, they all took out the food in their backpacks and ate it.

"I believe that everyone purchased the information about this dungeon before entering the dungeon. Now we might as well be open and honest and share the clues we have learned." Xiao Cheng said again, "This will increase our chances of escaping."

Of course, other people didn't think there was any problem with this, and they all said what they knew. Of course, at such a time, it is not certain whether anyone has reservations, or what he said is false.

"I got the news that there was a tragedy in this village decades ago, which even caused a sensation in the outside world. But in the end, it was nothing, and even the village had less contact with the outside world..."

"It seems that this tragedy has something to do with the Specter that we will meet in this dungeon." Gu Wuji said subconsciously, "But don't you have more detailed information?"

"No, no.

The man was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously followed Gu Wuji's words, "It's just a piece of news that was briefly mentioned in the newspaper. "

Xiao Cheng suddenly felt a sense of crisis in his heart: "?" What's going on, is this Sun Shi still stealing his words?

"It was mentioned here that this village seems to be able to communicate with ghosts and gods? In the past, when it was extremely feudal and superstitious, many people from other villages would come here to invite people. It's just that it's gone now." Another said.

"So that's the case." Gu Wuji said again: "The news I heard here is that the ceremony that is held every once in a while in this village is a ghost marriage."

Others looked at Gu Wuji, with different expressions, and their minds began to think about it. After all, these two words are really too scary.

"My reminder here is that you can walk outside as long as you take off the red lantern at night." A young girl said timidly.

Only then did everyone realize that this girl, who seemed to be very introverted before and didn't talk to outsiders very much, was actually very beautiful... Although she was not as good as Sun Shi.

Although they all thought that Sun Shi had a problem with his brain before, there was absolutely nothing to say about his appearance. It made everyone feel pleasing to the eyes just by looking at him, and unconsciously they had a little more affection for him... Not to mention that now the other party's speech felt well-founded, and the whole person was much more reliable.

"In this way, it is very likely that there will be actions that require going out at night." Xiao Cheng said in a hurry, for fear that Gu Wuji would steal his lines again, there is no need for two leaders in a team, "But we don't know this. Should I take the red lantern, after all Qi Yunxiu said that before..."

When he was talking, his eyes looked at Gu Wuji implying again.

The others remembered that Gu Wuji was still Qi Yunxiu's teammate, and subconsciously moved a little further away from him.

"What do you think, Sun Shi?" Xiao Cheng felt a burst of pride in his heart, but he was very sincere on the surface.

Gu Wuji also felt that this adult Xiao was also quite good, and immediately said: "I don't think I can take it."

"Why?" Xiao Cheng was a little surprised. He knew a little about the inside story before he knew that he shouldn't take this lantern. Qi Yunxiu obviously saw something with those eyes, but why was Sun Shi?

"Intuition." Gu Wuji said.

Others originally thought that Gu Wuji was still publishing some brilliant reasoning process, but they didn't expect it to be such a short word, and they were very disappointed.

Xiao Cheng felt more and more fearful in his heart, feeling that Sun Shi was several times more troublesome than Qi Yunxiu, and his ability to pretend to be stupid was incredible, as if he was really just using his intuition.

"It's getting late, let's have a rest." Xiao Cheng said, "So as not to wake up the next day without a spirit."

Gu Wuji was still a little surprised that Xiao Cheng didn't mention the hidden identities of the people at all. It seemed that they were all very good at keeping secrets.

In fact, other people didn't bother to talk about it at all... Their assigned identities are basically meaningless, and the tasks are extremely ordinary, and they can be completed casually.

The others went back to the house. Of course, no one dared to go to Qi Yunxiu's room. They would rather have seven people in two rooms.

That is to say, he walked in without hesitation. After all, he felt that he and Qi Yunxiu were teammates, not to mention monitoring each other...
