Mysterious World, I Have Special Understanding

After the cold brilliance of the gemstone disappeared, the entire space became dark.

Ji Que and Ning Hongyu held their breath at the same time, like two stones, without any movement.

The surrounding area suddenly became extremely quiet. From here, one could hear the sound of footsteps coming from outside.

There should be someone outside in that room.

Ji Que and Ning Hongyu didn't know if they were exposed, so they were already prepared to attack and escape at any time.

For example, Ning Hongyu in front of him had the demon sword in his left hand and a thick stack of water symbols in his right hand.

She doesn't mind being caught off guard from the start.

On the other side, what Ji Que took out was a pack of fire charms.

Anyway, the talisman can't be sold now, and he doesn't mind cooperating with Female Shangfeng to give the other party a double sky of water and fire.

But I have to admit that even though the two of them have experienced many battles, they can be regarded as old fritters, but after seeing the evil nature of this Taoist temple, they still can't help but get nervous.

At this time, the sound of footsteps approached the direction of the cave, and the changing light and shadow of the cave entrance could be vaguely seen from here.

But the footsteps stopped in front of the cave, and after standing for a while, they left.

It wasn't until a while later that Ji Que and Ning Hongyu let out a long breath.

They couldn't help but glanced at the stone cauldron again, feeling more and more that the texture on the cauldron was like wrinkles on the face of an old man, with an ominous meaning.

But they couldn't see anything, so they returned to the ground the same way.

The dilapidated house was still in plain sight.

The only difference is that there is a small dirt bag in the corner of the house.

The dirt bag was only the size of a palm, with fingerprints on it, and it looked like a small grave.

That person dug a small dirt bag here just now?

Ji Que and Ning Hongyu guessed that the person standing here just now was probably Dan Lingzi.

He and Chen Li have always been the only ones in the Changxu Temple. After eating, Chen Li usually sweeps the floor, so he probably wouldn't come here.

Did Lingzi Dan come here just to pile up this earth bag?

But what's the point?

But Ji Que and Ning Hongyu knew that the things here couldn't be deduced by common sense.

It was getting late and there was always an unsafe feeling standing here.

Ji Que and Ning Hongyu knew they couldn't stay here like this anymore.

The two quickly climbed over the wall and came out.

In the pit below, they forgot for a moment the passage of time, and only then did they realize that night was coming.

The sky became darker and darker, and the wind whimpered and blew through the wild forest, making it stretch its teeth and claws, making it look a bit hideous, and sometimes there was the sound of a big bird flapping its wings, which seemed deep and strange.

It was as if something terrible was about to emerge from this dense forest.

Ji Que and Ning Hongyu no longer hesitated, turned back to the mezzanine of that room.

This place is like their safe house, and they will feel a little at ease when they arrive here.

But this peace of mind is only relative, thinking of the lonely stone tripod they saw in the empty house and cave before, it always makes them feel cold.

There was nothing, but it was even more weird than a room full of pot-bellied elk.

After such a whole day, Ji Que and Ning Hongyu have realized that tonight's host, Chen Li, is very likely to undergo a similar evil change from last night.

All the weirdness seems to start with Chen Li serving a meal.

From the moment he opened the meal, everything became sinister.

They have been peeping here for almost two days, and they seem to have some clues, but they are still far from the truth.

The big-bellied elk seemed to grow out of the cauldron. Every time Dan Lingzi led them to feed Chen Li, it didn't look like the apprentice was serving the master, but more like offering sacrifices to the priest?

So what exactly is Chen Li's identity, a god, a monster, or an evil spirit?

Everything in this long virtual view is like a layer of mist, which makes it hard to see clearly. Occasionally, a group of phantoms appear, which gives people a creepy horror.

Maybe they need more clues to get closer to the truth.

For example, where did Dan Lingzi go last night? What's the point of the oil lamp he guarded so carefully?

Ji Que communicated with Ning Hongyu and made a decision, that is, if a similar situation happens again tonight, they will follow behind Dan Lingzi to see what happened.

They feel that they are not far from the truth. This feeling is like looking for pearls of the truth on a beach. They have already found a few pearls, but there is still a thread to connect them.

But for some reason, the closer they were to the truth, the more disturbed they became.

In the courtyard, Chen Li, whose beard was full of blood, was still sweeping the ground slowly, while Dan Lingzi should be in the hall.

There is no difference between tonight and last night, but it is this similarity that makes people feel absurd.

If they hadn't gone to the cave to see the tripod in person today, and they came back from outside, they might think they were trapped in yesterday.

That feeling, how to put it, they seem to be the only change in this Taoism.

The night was getting thicker and thicker, and those weird sounds in the night appeared around again.

Suddenly, Ning Hongyu stopped moving, and restrained his breathing. Ji Que, who was aware of this, quickly held his breath.

Compared with last night, there is a cold moonlight tonight, and the whole Taoist temple will not be completely dark.

And because of this, Ning Hongyu, who only has one eye but has excellent eyesight, saw the change in Chen Li.

Moss sprouted from his neck, entangled there like a twisted snake, whether it was because he kept sweeping the floor or for some reason, Ning Hongyu even felt that the moss was alive.

Like countless tiny earthworms, clinging to Chen Li's body and moving gently.

What made her even more vigilant was that she noticed Chen Li's gaze.

Although he has been sweeping the floor there, as if he has been immersed in this matter as before, but in fact?

Ning Hongyu felt that he was secretly glancing around from time to time, and several times even glanced towards them, under the cold moonlight, there was a sinister taste.

This guy glanced like this yesterday?

Hence, Ji Que and Ning Hongyu had to be more cautious.

In the middle of the journey, I knew that besides them, there were only Dan Lingzi and Chen Li in this Changxu Temple, but they would still look back from time to time.

It seems that a third person will emerge from this secret interlayer.

This feeling is very bad, because this mezzanine is considered a "safe house" in Ji Que's mind.

The safe house is not safe anymore, that's really bad enough.

In the middle of the night, the light appeared again.

You don't need to think about it to know that it is Dan Lingzi.

Dan Lingzi was wearing a blue Taoist robe, holding an oil lamp in his hand, protecting it carefully, and glanced at Chen Li who was sweeping the floor from time to time, he looked like a thief.

Or, like a mouse sneaking past a cat.

The muddy smell in the air became more and more intense, and in Ning Hongyu's eyes, Chen Li who was sweeping the floor became more and more sinister.

She even saw him smiling there.

With a creak, Dan Lingzi came to the house again, nestling in the same place as last night.

The sweeping sound had already stopped, and Ji Que even felt that it stopped earlier than last night.

A strong muddy smell spread along the splint, and Ji Que knew without looking that Chen Li was here.

With a bang, the wooden door was pushed wide open this time.

Night Breeze got in and made a whining sound, like a ghost crying.

Ji Que and Ning Hongyu felt that the air here had become a lot heavier, and it was very depressing.

The change is not just psychological.

This can only show that Chen Li's aura is very strong.

This time, Chen Li obviously went deeper than last night, and it was easier to find Dan Lingzi and them hiding in the interlayer.

The three of them didn't dare to take a breath.

"Squeak!"

A black mouse crawled along the splint and onto Ji Que's neck, and Ji Que didn't even move.

What's more, the mouse jumped to the vicinity of Ji Que's belt, and took out a bank note with a click.

Ji Que continued to endure and remained motionless.

After the mouse gnawed the silver bill, it spit it aside, jumped on top of Ji Que's head, and gnawed his hair.

Ji Que still didn't move, even though he has always been prejudiced against mice.

When Ning Hongyu looked at him worriedly, he even showed a very stiff smile.

In some ways he's professional, unless he can't help it.

Afterwards, the mouse seemed bored, jumped off Ji Que's head, and burrowed underneath.

The moment the mouse landed from the mezzanine, it seemed that it suddenly sensed a huge danger and wanted to escape, but its sound stopped abruptly.

The next moment, Ji Que saw Chen Li walking back, and the rat, which he wished to peel off and cramp, was sticking to Chen Li's body.

The moss covering his body quickly writhed like an earthworm and burrowed into the mouse's eye sockets and mouth.

In less than a few breaths, it became part of the "moss" on Chen Li's body.

This is a terrifying scene, which at least proves that Chen Li has the ability to "infect others".

But Ji Que's impression of him changed a bit.

Anyone or anything that can kill mice is a plus for him.

The more brutal the better.

After that, there was a little bit of fire below.

Like last night, Dan Lingzi quietly opened the window and left the room.

Ji Que and Ning Hongyu winked, and they slid out along the splint like two fish, and jumped out along the window.

The wind here is always strong at night, and the trees in the wild forest shake violently, making it very lively for a while.

After coming out, the sound of the big bird flapping its wings and the sound of a child crying became more and more obvious.

Ji Que and Ning Hongyu held weapons in their hands and looked around for fear that something was approaching.

And in front of them, there was a faint light shaking in the wind.

The fire seemed to be extinguished at any moment, but it was still shaking, but it never went out.

Dan Lingzi walked in a hurry, guarding the light of the fire.

But he was not walking fast.

Ji Que and Ning Hongyu followed behind, and the two quickly left the scope of Changxu Temple and entered the forest outside.

In the woods, weeds are overgrown and the trees are lush, and the moonlight cannot penetrate.

When Ji Que came here for the first time, Dan Lingzi told him that he had to leave this forest before dark, presumably there must be something terrible hidden in this forest.

It was very dark in the woods, and there was still white mist floating in it. Even with Ning Hongyu's eyesight, he could only see about three feet in front of him.

In the white mist, the sound of children crying and big birds flapping their wings can be heard from time to time, sometimes very close, sometimes far away.

In order to avoid exposure, both Ji Que and Ning Hongyu took a swimming position.

With the wind blowing the wild grass, they used this to hide their figures, and they could always catch the trace of Dan Lingzi.

Although the light from the fire was weak, it was also the only light source here.

Suddenly, Ji Que and Ning Hongyu, who were swimming, froze suddenly, because a bone hand with feathers suddenly emerged from the fog in front of them.

As soon as it stretched forward, it was about to grab Dan Lingzi's neck.

Dan Lingzi suddenly noticed something and looked back.

When the light from the oil lamp in his hand projected over, that hand retracted all of a sudden.

Under the light of the oil lamp, Dan Lingzi's face turned yellow, as if coated with a layer of wax.

In other words, it seems that it is a layer of wax, and the sweat on the face is wax oil.

At this moment, Ji Que and Ning Hongyu could no longer tell whether the other party was a human or a ghost.

What made them even more vigilant was that there were indeed dirty things in the woods.

They couldn't help but press their bodies lower, and followed up again in a swimming posture.

This time, they were even a little closer to Dan Lingzi.

But at this moment, Dan Lingzi stopped suddenly, then walked abruptly to the right, hiding behind a tree.

Ning Hongyu and Ji Que were just about to keep up, only to find that the fog in front of them suddenly moved.

They stopped immediately, as if they had merged with the weeds on the ground.

After that, the two saw a lot of people, and a lot of voices rushed towards their faces.

These people were very thin, with skin and bones, their mouths were wide open, and they kept talking, with an unspeakable sense of horror.

But the most tingling thing is the way they travel.

They are wrapped together.

Yep, that's a huge ball of flesh made up of many of these scrawny people.

The meat ball was at least as high as a few floors, and these people melted together as if poured, and some bodies were still writhing on the surface, like weird earthworms.

If the meat ball in front of him is all made up of human bodies, then at least tens of thousands of people are needed.

The meat ball was rolling, passing Ji Que and Ning Hongyu.

At this moment, an earthworm should have discovered them and let out a cry, but soon, his voice was drowned out by the voices of his companions.

The huge ball of human flesh left and disappeared into the mist. Ji Que and Ning Hongyu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

If you encounter this thing head-on, I'm afraid it's really not easy to deal with.

And the most important thing is that they don't know how many such unheard of evil spirits exist in this forest.

Soon, the light in front of the fire flickered again, and Ji Que and Ning Hongyu quickly followed.

It can be seen that the light has become more and more dimmer.

Finally, the two saw the single-plank bridge.

There is fog floating on the single-plank bridge in the night, and the water below cannot be seen clearly, as if there are some huge monsters swimming.

Looking from here, it really looks like a ghostly bridge of Naihe.

But Dan Lingzi crossed the bridge without any risk, and Ji Que and Ning Hongyu quickly followed.

But when he swam to the middle of the bridge, Ji Que suddenly heard someone calling his name.

"Aji, why are you here?"

The voice came from under the bridge, and it sounded like Tang Yi's voice.

Ji Que couldn't help looking down, but at this moment, his chin was suddenly held by a beautiful hand.

Ning Hongyu held his chin and signaled with his eyes: "Don't look, just go!"

The single-plank bridge finally came to an end.

Ji Que looked back at this moment, and found that the single-plank bridge was ordinary, and so was the water below, which was completely different from the feeling just now.

At this moment, Ji Que really had the illusion of walking from the ghost realm to the human world.

Ahead, Dan Lingzi was still walking.

Ji Que soon discovered that they had come near Dan Lingzi's grave.

Dan Lingzi walked towards Dan Lingzi's grave, no matter how you think about it, it feels creepy.

In the line of sight of the two, Dan Lingzi and the tombstone that read "Dan Lingzi Chen Yu's Tomb" passed by.

He went to the depths of the wild grass.

Afterwards, Ji Que and Ning Hongyu felt like they had fallen into an absurd nightmare.

Behind this, there are many graves.

On the tombstones in front of the tomb, there are all written the words "Tomb of Dan Lingzi Chen Yu".

Even if these graves were not dug open, Ji Que knew that the buried ones might be all pill spirit seeds.

The same Dan Lingzi.

At this moment, Dan Lingzi was holding the oil lamp in his hand, walking between his graves, with no emotion on his face.

The sky turned white.

The Dan Lingzi in front did not move.

Immediately afterwards, he suddenly knelt there, before his own grave.

The next moment, the oil lamp in his hand went out, and he was completely silent.

Ji Que saw it, and there was only one thought in his mind - "He is dead.".

He looked at Ning Hongyu, and Ning Hongyu nodded, confirming his thoughts.

Dan Lingzi died.

Holding the oil lamp in his hands, Dan Lingzi came all the way from Changxu Temple to his grave and died.

Then what?

For a while, Ji Que had difficulty describing his feelings. He felt like he was trapped in a ridiculous nightmare and did not wake up.

But Dan Lingzi was indeed dead, kneeling there motionless, his eyes had lost their luster.

And the direction of his eyes before he died was looking towards them.

He noticed them?

But after that?

For a moment, Ji Que and Ning Hongyu looked at each other with horror.

They thought they would find some key clues when they came here, but now the line is broken.

At this time, the two had time to observe the tombs.

Yes, the words engraved on them are the same, and you can even feel that it was written by one person.

But the tombstones are not consistent, some are bigger and some are smaller.

Suddenly, the two of them lay down in the grass almost at the same time, holding their breath and concentrating.

A burst of fine footsteps came from the wild grass.

somebody is coming!

The sky is pale, and the grass and tombstones are dark.

Ning Hongyu and Ji Que held their breaths, prostrated themselves on the ground, and silently observed everything.

Then, they saw a person.

Pill Lingzi.

Dan Lingzi came from the wild grass and stood in front of the dead Dan Lingzi
