The wall in the backyard is not high, and with Zhao Yijiu's skills, it is not difficult to climb in quietly.
He did the same.
Even without any weapons on him, he was still reckless and sneaked into the area where the boss of this mission might be located alone.
Zhao Yijiu knew that those people working in the front yard had not thought about the importance of the backyard. His current behavior was no different from Luo Xianfeng. In the eyes of others, he was the "cannon fodder" who was the most restless and could only take the lead.
.
But it doesn't matter. Correspondingly, if he acts alone, he will enjoy a lot of convenience.
In the darkness, he landed like a cat.
The weeds under his feet were crushed under his feet, and a few small pieces of gravel rolled away uncontrollably, but this small sound should not disturb the old man who looked like he was about to die.
——If the old man were human.
Zhao Yijiu waited for a moment with the idea that he would fight with the old man if he dared to come. After making sure that nothing noticed him, he continued to go deeper.
The overall layout of the backyard is much weirder than the front.
Several houses are scattered in the yard in a very messy layout. Wild flowers and grass grow freely in the yard. On the basis of the land, simple roads are paved with stone slabs in some places.
The place where he climbed over the wall was quite close to the courtyard gate, but when he came in, his view was blocked by a house. Silver bells were hung on the four corners of the house. They seemed very heavy, because when the wind blew, the bells were just
It shook slightly, but there was no sound.
After looking at the bell a few more times, Zhao Yijiu carefully walked around the house, and after walking around a corner, his vision suddenly became clear.
He saw an unexpected white jade coffin placed in the largest open space in the backyard.
It is really very unexpected, because there is nothing in that open space, only the white jade coffin is placed in the center. Anyone who comes will spot it at a glance.
Judging from the vague outline, it seems to be the dart cargo that disappeared with Yu Xing.
The coffin is here, where is Yu Xing?
Zhao Yijiu's heart beat a beat faster, and he instinctively sensed the danger here.
There seemed to be no one around, but he had the illusion that someone was staring at him everywhere.
He even wondered, was Yu Xing lying in that coffin?
Anyway, let’s take a closer look first.
Zhao Yijiu did not go directly, but held his breath and tried to find the old man's location.
He listened carefully and found that the air in the backyard seemed to be blocked by something. It was extremely stagnant, making it difficult for him to confirm the direction of others just by hearing. He had to search room by room, passing through most of the empty spaces.
Behind the house, he heard breathing from the wall of a room.
Yizhuang was really too dilapidated. Even in the backyard, most of the windows had holes. Zhao Yijiu looked inside the house through the holes in the window panes.
Surprisingly, he saw nothing.
No, I should say... His inquiring sight was blocked by something.
When he realized that the room was completely dark and there were no outlines of objects, Zhao Yijiao froze for a moment, and then his whole body tensed up like a leopard with explosive fur, and multiple thoughts flashed through him in just one second.
He was seen.
The old man, or something else, had already put his eyes on the hole and looked at him through the hole before he approached the house.
Should he get out of the way now, stay still, or stretch out his finger and poke the eyeball blind?
The opportunity was fleeting, from the moment Zhao Yijiu realized that the darkness behind the window pane came from a person's eyeballs, to when his whole body was wrapped in a cold feeling, and the moisture in the air seemed to be squeezing towards him, trying to suffocate him.
...It only takes a few breaths.
Zhao Yijiu didn't hesitate too much, gave up the idea of poking the eyeball to pieces, turned around and fled.
Apparently, "being seen" is a condition for death!
If he stays where he is, he will definitely suffocate, at least get out of the sight of that eyeball first!
After making a decision, he lowered his body and somersaulted almost instantly to the blind spot of the window pane. Then he pressed against the wall and continued to carefully judge the breathing and heartbeat in the room.
Something inside moved.
As if dissatisfied with him disappearing from sight, strange light footsteps sounded slowly, walking from the window to the door.
Then, there was a squeak.
The door of the house opened.
Almost at the same time, the bells hanging at the four corners of the house suddenly rang wildly!
This kind of bell sound is different from the bells owned by the saint. Every sound is rapid and sharp, like a reminder or warning. The harsh ringing sound keeps drilling into the eardrums, affecting the heartbeat like a drum.
Zhao Yijiu's body, which belonged to the "Dog God", immediately felt the great danger. The hairs on his back suddenly stood up, and the instinct of his body was telling him to "run quickly", but the devil's temperament was shouting "Tsk, what is it, let me see it quickly"
look".
In fact, Zhao Yijiu also had doubts in his heart. He wanted to see what that thing looked like.
"It's" footsteps...are different from the old man's. They are lighter but slower.
"It" also seemed to be intelligent. After opening the door, it walked directly towards Zhao Yijiu's hiding place without stopping at all.
Zhao Yijiu knew he couldn't stay where he was. He just slipped to where he was now in front of this thing. There was no way the other person didn't know he was here.
Damn Deduction, he actually blocked his shadow ability, otherwise there would be no need for such trouble!
Cursing the deduction system in his mind, he mobilized all his control over the body and quietly transferred it.
The strange layout of the backyard became a cover. Zhao Yijiu turned a few corners and discovered that the bell was following the thing. Wherever the thing went, the bell in any room would be triggered.
For a moment, the entire backyard was filled with impatient bells, which gave him some room for error in his actions.
So, the layout of the backyard is aimed at this thing that comes out of the house?
Then, the meaning of the existence of the backyard is probably not to hide, but to suppress...
While making a judgment, Zhao Yijiu consciously turned behind the thing and took a look.
A pure white...excessively slender thing floated on the ground.
That doesn't seem to be accurate, because the thing's legs are still on the ground, pointing straight forward in an unfamiliar and strange way, as if there are no knee joints.
The foot, which is more than half the size of a human, is just an oval in shape. That size... matches the "child's" footprints outside the camp!
Zhao Yijiu only saw the other party's back and narrowed his eyes.
What on earth is this thing... Is Yu Xing in the room where it came out? No, definitely not. The footsteps and "breathing" he heard were all from this pure white monster, and there was no one else in the room.
"call……"
Just as he was observing the thing, another exhale suddenly came from behind him.
A cold feeling swept over me.
Zhao Yijiu's fingers trembled, and instead of turning his head, he turned his whole body.
There is no one behind me.
There are no ghosts either.
"call……"
However, there was still a breath coming from behind him.
Zhao Yijiu felt bad, suddenly remembered something, and looked at the white jade coffin he noticed before.
Under the scattered moonlight, the white jade coffin was opened at some point, and a hollow darkness spread in that half of the opening.
No...if it was the white thing that came out of the house, then what was it that came out of the coffin...and followed him?
"call……"
The wind blew through the treetops outside the courtyard, and the sound of salsa fell into the sound of the bells, like a low laugh mixed in with the rapid warning scream.
