Shang Yu glanced at the other people's faces, looking sad.
No one spoke until Qin Min stepped forward.
"Xi'er and Qing must leave this community to completely get rid of the curse and disturbance. Qing said this herself, and everyone else saw the words written in blood."
Wang Mo and Wu Siran nodded repeatedly.
Qin Min continued:
"Yu Niao and Gao Yuan agreed to Qing Po Shen, and they took Xi'er out together.
We thought they would be back soon, but we didn't know there was no movement at all."
There was nothing unusual after they left the community.
Before that, it was the same.
Chen Yifei turned around and stared at Du Li with accusing eyes:
"If it weren't for Sister Yu Niao, I'm afraid you would have died a long time ago. It's okay if you don't feel sad. There's no point in blaming Sister Niao."
Du Li couldn't bear it anymore: "Yes, she saved me, but do I have to be grateful to her or die for her? I didn't ask her to save me.
I tried to persuade her at that time, but she didn't listen. Now that she can't come back, you blame me? Adults should be responsible for their own actions.
Let me tell you something you don’t like to hear. Stop pretending to shed tears. If they kill me and others, will you still cry?"
Chen Yifei glared angrily but could not refute.
Du Li expressed her feelings that Qiu Yali did not dare to express.
Others began to fear for their own safety.
Li Tao was most annoyed by the women chattering non-stop. He scratched the ground with a shovel and vaguely saw that there was real road underneath the paper.
Shang and Leng Buding warned everyone: "There are still ghosts lurking inside."
Du Li raised his voice: "Even if I know there are ghosts, why am I still standing here leisurely waiting for them to come back?"
"That's right, there is no word about completing the mission in the red book. We finally made it to the last moment."
Qiu Yali observed everyone's expressions and couldn't help but say something.
Li Tao laughed as he mentioned the shovel, "No one is forcing you to do anything. Just do whatever you want. No one will care about you."
It's really good. From the beginning to the end, no one said that they had to pay for someone's behavior.
Qiu Yali and Du Li just don't want to be kidnapped by morality and appear to be immoral.
This will make them lose face.
"Boy, do you think that black shadow is afraid of my shovel?"
Shang Yu looked along the direction of Li Tao's arm and found that there was no moonlight in the position he occupied.
Compared with other places, it is so dark that it makes people breathless.
Li Tao wanted to give it a try, but "Shadow" was difficult to deal with.
Shang Yuqiang dragged him to the moonlight underground. The two of them stared at their shadows and saw no change before heaving a sigh of relief.
"That thing can also get through cracks, so it's a bit tricky to deal with."
Shang Yu believed Li Tao's words because he kept watching him shoveling the ground.
Du Li subconsciously held her arms and hid next to Qiu Yali. Qiu Yali was also afraid and kept getting closer to Qin Min, who was motionless.
"It's better for everyone to stand separately. The area of the shadows will be larger when they are connected together, which makes it easier for ghosts to hide."
Shang Yu quickly glanced at Qin Min who was calm.
"Hahaha, look at how cowardly you are, why did the momentum you just spoke suddenly disappear?"
Li Tao had no intention of laughing at Qiu and Du, he just wanted them to shut up.
"It's good to liven up the atmosphere. Being too nervous is not a good thing. If you don't mind, can I play a song?"
Qin Min felt that the atmosphere at the scene was too depressing and wanted to use this to relieve it.
Not to mention listening to music, the slightest disturbance can make people suffer from neurasthenia.
Qin Min realized that he had said something idiotic and turned around to look at the community.
At this time, Qiu Yali and Du Li were shivering from the cold. They suggested that a group of people find a warmer place to take shelter from the wind and lift their feet for a moment.
All the paper buildings, plants and trees in the community have become real objects.
The red lanterns on every street were replaced by street lights.
Dots of warm light filled the whole neighborhood.
Qiu and Du felt that their bodies were not so cold just by looking at the light.
The lady walked in front, followed by Wang Mo and Qin Min, and together they walked towards the building that added to the atmosphere of fireworks.
Li Tao glanced at Shang Yu, who was standing still, and smiled: "Those idiots really think that this kind of ghost place will become like home, with someone preparing meals and waiting for them to go back?"
"Come back quickly!"
Shang Yu suddenly remembered the mirage and roared, but the group of people turned a deaf ear.
Du Li, who was walking at the front, felt a pair of invisible hands pulling her, and her calm and rosy face suddenly turned ferocious.
She tried to turn around and saw that everyone else looked panicked.
Shang Yu and Li Tao looked at each other when they saw a group of people stopping and moving in strange postures. There was no difference in their shadows.
Underfoot, the road cracked with a crack as wide as a finger.
That's where Li Tao scratched with a shovel.
Soon, Li Tao and Shang Yu also felt a strong attraction - the brightly lit building was "calling" them.
"shovel!"
As soon as Shang Yu spoke out, Li Tao immediately understood.
The crack under the shovel is expanding little by little.
Fortunately, the emergence of cracks weakens the "attraction" and also indicates that if people do not escape in time, they will collapse like the eight buildings not far away.
Du Li and others returned to the gate of the community, and the consciousness they had almost lost quickly returned.
"It's so scary. I feel like I almost walked into the 18th level of hell."
Qiu Yali was shivering from the cold, but she was very glad that she could still stand here and sigh.
Building after building collapsed one after another, silently, and the sky glowed with red light.
Li Tao spat into his hand and gripped the shovel handle harder, "What are we doing in the cold? Run away!"
Qin Min was the first to discuss it and said, "What should I do if I run out and get into trouble now?"
No one wants to take risks.
Shang Yu ran to higher ground without saying a word. Even if the road surface collapsed, he would not be hit to death by other things.
Li Tao followed him without hesitation, while the others looked at each other, but also continued to catch up intermittently.
The last person, Qin Min, stood firm one second, and the next second, everything in front of their eyes turned into ruins.
"Let's go, let's find a higher place."
Before he finished speaking, Li Tao's legs sank. Wang Mo wanted to step forward and Shang Yu stopped him.
"You dig it yourself with a shovel."
Li Tao glared at Shang Yu, which was not surprising at all. He knew very well that there was a quagmire under his feet, and he was sinking deeper and deeper.
The person who fell in next was Wang Mo.
The difference was that he felt someone pulling on his ankle.
Shang Yu noticed something was wrong with Wang Mo's expression, pushed Qin Min away, reached out and grabbed his collar and pulled it up.
"Ah, no, stop pulling. It feels like my feet have been chewed."
Shang Yu looked at the others with a sullen face. Liu Yanyu was the first to help, but everyone tried their best but could not pull Wang Mo out.
Wu Siran saw Wang Mo's face clearly and fell to the ground in fright, "He... seems to be dead?"
