Li Tian and Ergou left the college smoothly. Following the memory of last night, they walked along the streets and alleys, and finally came to the small alley that was so remote that almost no one would come there.
It is difficult for sunlight to shine through the old houses on both sides of the alley into the alley. Except for a certain period of time at noon, this alley looks particularly dark compared to the streets outside.
Because it was daytime, most of the shops in the alley were open, making it look more lively than last night, but despite this, it was still deserted.
"Brother Tian, I feel a little eerie, how about we run away?" Ergou seemed to have a particularly keen sense of danger, and he wanted to retreat before he even reached the place.
"Shut up." Li Tian glared at Ergou and continued, "We are already here, how can we just turn around and go back? Don't worry, no one can find us with the compass. Besides, you can still sleep at night unless we check thoroughly.
Are you able to sleep? Aren’t you afraid that they will come to us again at night?”
Ergou hesitated for a moment and could only follow Li Tian's words, "Hurry up then. Where is it? Let's go back as soon as we finish reading. I seem to smell a familiar smell. It doesn't feel good."
Li Tian pointed to the ancient house in the deepest part of the alley in the distance. "In the innermost part, you may have smelled the smell of the two people who were together. Last night I accidentally saw them walking in."
Ergou followed Li Tian slowly towards the depths of the alley, and asked as he walked, "Didn't you buy me a barbecue last night? How could you come to a place like this?"
Li Tian didn't hide anything, "Oh, I planned to buy you a coffin yesterday. Did you see it? I went to the coffin shop in front of me, but I couldn't buy it ready-made, so I bought some barbecue and went back."
Ergou looked puzzled, "Why are you buying me a coffin?"
Li Tian smiled and said, "It's a gift. You'll need it sooner or later."
Ergou sighed, "What bad luck! You'd better buy it for yourself. I feel like you'll be able to use it soon."
What greeted him was Li Tian's ruthless kick.
Passing by the coffin shop, Li Tian looked inside and saw that the old man inside was lowering his head and sawing wood. He didn't notice anyone passing by. Two black coffins were placed at the very back of the coffin shop, and two large white words "Die" came into view.
.
After thinking for a while, Li Tian knocked on the door of the coffin shop.
Hearing the sound, the old man stopped what he was doing and looked back slowly. He saw a man and a dog standing at the door. If he took a closer look, wasn't that the young man who came to buy a coffin last night?
"Young man, it's you, what's wrong? Do you want to buy a coffin? I'll make it for you as soon as possible. It can be done in two days."
The old man wiped the sweat from his forehead, walked to the table aside, took down the tea cup and took a sip of hot tea.
Li Tian smiled and shook his head, "Excuse me, old gentleman, the coffin is no longer needed, but I have something to ask you."
The old man was slightly confused and asked, "What's the matter? Old man, I'm in the shop basically every day, so I may not be able to help you."
Li Tian continued, "What's your surname, sir? I don't know how to call you yet."
The old man smiled and said, "My surname is Li, just call me Li Coffin Maker. Everyone here calls me that. I escaped from famine a few years ago. I am afraid I have been here for ten years. I also came here to build this coffin shop."
After that, I will open a business and go back to my hometown to earn a living."
Li Tian nodded and returned to the topic, "That's right, we want to ask, who lives in the house at the bottom of the alley here? You have been here for so long, you should know, right?"
A trace of surprise flashed in the old man's eyes, and then he walked out to the edge of Li Tian and pointed to the ancient house in the deepest part of the alley. "You mean that house?"
Seeing that he pointed to the right place, Li Tian nodded quickly, "Yes, that's the one."
The old man shook his head, "There's no one there. The house had been empty before I came. I heard it was a haunted house. A dozen or so people in the family, including the dog, died in one night. Law enforcement team
I came to check and found nothing. In the end, the house was sealed. Why do you ask? Are you looking for someone? If he is on this street, maybe I can recognize him if you tell me his name."
When he heard that it was a haunted house that no one lived in, Li Tian guessed that it was most likely the stronghold of Tianyi Yiyi. Maybe the death of the family before was done by Tianyiyiyi. After all, Tianyiyiyi was not responsible for killing a whole family.
Made it for the first time.
Li Tian shook his head, "We are not looking for anyone. We just walked here and asked casually. I saw that the house is quite big, so I was curious."
Li Coffin suddenly realized, "So that's it. You should go shopping on the street. Why are you here? Let me tell you, I heard that the area around that house is not clean. Even if you pass by the door, you will be unlucky for several days. You guys
It’s better to go back quickly and don’t get unlucky at such a young age.”
Seeing Li Coffin Maker's kind reminder, Li Tian nodded, "It's okay. I'm a very energetic person, so I'm not afraid of this kind of thing. I'm just curious and won't go in. Let's go first, you can do your work."
,Do not bother me."
Seeing this, Coffinmaker Li didn't say anything more, "Okay, then go ahead and do your work. I still have work on hand, so I'll go work first."
After bidding farewell to Li Coffinmaker, Li Tian continued deep into the alley with his two dogs.
Ergou's calves were trembling a little now. "Brother Tian, how about we go? You also heard what the old man said just now. That house is unlucky!"
Li Tianbai said, "Do you believe in those who are pretending to be ghosts? I think it's Tianyi Dao and his gang who deliberately made this house look like a haunted house so that others can walk around it. Their lair is probably here."
Ergou said timidly, "I feel that dangerous smell is getting closer and closer. If you insist on doing something, what will happen if you find out? With your little strength of three melons and two dates, can you still take over their hometown?"
Li Tian waved his hand like a mouthful and glared at it, "Shut up, what are you afraid of if you have a compass? Even if the King of Heaven comes, he won't be able to find us."
Seeing that Li Tian was so insistent, Ergou had no choice but to do it. He knew that even if he wanted to leave now, Li Tian would definitely hold him. Today's scene reminded him of the time when he went to Hou Qingbai Manor a year ago. It was also because of Li Tian.
Tian's arrogance almost caused him to be kicked to death by the old butler, Den. The danger of that night is still vivid in his mind.
Soon, they came to the edge of the ancient house. The green brick window eaves around the ancient house were already covered with green vegetation, wrapping the house tightly. I wonder if it was an illusion.
The temperature inside is indeed much lower than outside, which makes people feel chilly.
Li Tian did not hesitate, took out the compass from his arms and escaped into the void world with his two dogs. The surrounding colors disappeared instantly and turned into a familiar gray. The structure of the house in front of him also turned into indistinct lines.
Lines appear.
"Let's go in and take a look."
Li Tian said something, controlled the compass and slowly walked towards the house. What caught his eye were all kinds of dilapidated and dusty furniture. But as Li Tian went deeper, he found that the house was empty except for a long time.
Apart from the dilapidation caused by living there, there is nothing suspicious about it, let alone the shadow of Tian Yiyi.
This made him wonder. The two Tianyi people he saw last night were just passing by. But why did they enter the house when passing by?
At this time, Li Tian couldn't help but look underground. Just below the house, there was a line structure that was not particularly obvious.
Li Tian immediately controlled the compass and headed underground. After going five meters deep into the ground, a huge underground palace suddenly appeared in Li Tian's eyes.
"It's actually hidden so deep!"
Now Li Tian was completely sure that this was the stronghold of Tianyi Dao.
Li Tian followed the passage of the underground palace and went all the way deep until he entered the deepest room. He was immediately shocked by the scene in front of him. He saw a group of at least several hundred people, wearing special clothes branded with Tianyi's special badge.
The cloak was prostrating forward on the ground, kneeling towards a black seat in the distance.
"Welcome the Holy Lord!!!"
Li Tian looked forward and saw a person slowly walking out of the shadow on the side of the black seat. He walked straight to the people who were kneeling and sat down on the black seat. Li Tian recognized him at a glance.
, Tianyi! The huge word Tianyi behind his cloak further confirmed Li Tian’s thoughts.
The second dog next to him suddenly trembled, "I remembered, the smell I just smelled was his! Brother Tian, let's run away quickly, we shouldn't stay here for a long time!"
Li Tian had no intention of leaving directly. Instead, he controlled the compass and quickly headed towards Tianyi. This operation scared Ergou and almost barked out.
He never expected that Tianyi would be so close to them all the time. It was not far from the academy, which also showed that danger was always around him.
"What are you afraid of? He can't see us. So what if you poop in front of him?" Li Tian said angrily.
Then he stopped talking to Ergou and looked around. The furnishings of the room were very simple. There were not even tables and chairs. It looked like a place that could accommodate many people. However, after looking for a long time, Shang Guan was not seen.
Where.
"God...Brother Tian..." Ergou's voice trembled, as if he had encountered something terrible.
"What are you doing?" Li Tian looked at Ergou slightly impatiently.
Ergou stretched out his paws and pointed outward, trembling as he said, "Look, is he looking at us!!!"
Li Tian immediately looked in the direction Ergou pointed, only to see Tianyi tilting his head, and the direction his face under the black mist was looking was actually where they were!!!
Suddenly, a creeping feeling of panic swept through Li Tian's whole body, and the hair on his body stood upright. Without thinking, he controlled the compass and flew quickly towards the ground. "How on earth could he find us? It must be a coincidence."
Regarding this, Li Tian could only think like this in his heart. He really couldn't accept that Tianyi could see them through the void world.
After Li Tian left, the corners of Tianyi's mouth under the black mist slowly turned up with a dangerous arc, "Yes, it's its breath..."
The next moment, Tianyi disappeared directly into the underground room, leaving everyone who was still kneeling on the ground confused, but they still did not dare to stand up from the ground, for fear that the elusive Tianyi would come back the next moment.
Li Tian, who had just returned to the ground, was forced to leave the void world with his two dogs as his head felt dizzy.
"Fly, why aren't you flying? Are you looking for death if you come out now?" Ergou suddenly became anxious and asked Li Tian to continue using the compass.
Li Tian put away the compass and gasped quickly, "What a fart, it must have been a coincidence just now. He couldn't have seen us. Don't scare yourself. The old guy must be holding a meeting for his subordinates now."
Even though he said this, Li Tian couldn't help but speed up the pace on his feet. He was also a little panicked. Who is Tianyi? A ruthless person who can fight with the ancestor of the Ling family and escape unharmed is not at all.
He can handle it.
One person and one dog walked quickly out of the alley, and they gradually felt relieved until they were almost at the entrance of the alley.
Just when Li Tian breathed a long sigh of relief and thought about how to get rid of Tianyi's den, the two dogs beside him suddenly felt as if their fur had exploded.
"Run! He's coming!!!" After saying that, Ergou turned into an afterimage and ran out. The speed it showed at this moment was definitely faster than when it pulled Li Tian to run yesterday morning.
Much more.
Li Tian hadn't even reacted to Ergou's words. As soon as he ran out, Ergou flew back to the alley entrance from a distance like a kite with its string broken, lying on the ground motionless as if dead.
At the same time, a cold hand patted his shoulder, causing his whole body to tremble uncontrollably, and a sense of crisis suddenly swept through his body.
"I knew it was you, hehehe..." A slightly hoarse voice came to Li Tian's ears from behind. He would never forget this voice, and it would also be a nightmare that would surround him for a long time.
Li Tian's stiff body slowly turned around, and he saw the face covered in black mist. There seemed to be some bloodthirsty beast hidden under the black mist.
"Why can you see us?" He broke out in a cold sweat, but he knew there was no way out at this moment.
Tianyi slowly shook his head and said, "I can't see it, but it used to be my thing. I can feel its breath."
Li Tian wanted to say something else, but his vision went dark and he completely lost consciousness.
'Bang bang bang' The knocking sound in the coffin shop echoed in every corner of the alley, but at some point, the knocking stopped for a moment, and an old sigh slowly came from the coffin shop. After a while, the knocking sound came out.
