She has never seen such a deserted and terrifying place. It has probably been abandoned for a long time. Weeds have grown wildly, and vines have climbed all over the walls, making it impossible to see the bricks and stones below. Small trees have grown on the roof, and I don’t know which bird will
The seeds were brought up. Yin Quan thought to himself, how did they take root in that place without soil? Will they die prematurely due to lack of nutrients, or will they rely on gravity to first collapse the roof and then re-root the earth? Life is always
So tenacious.
"Be careful, there is a scent of monsters coming here."
They all said they didn’t want to leave here anymore... Yin Huan really had no choice. Along the way, she had lived a hard life. She didn’t have much money with her, and now it was almost spent. Although there were many good people helping her, there was no shortage of them.
A mean-spirited guy. She mostly traveled to big cities, where the security was pretty good, but she was always wronged in small places. The one time she remembers most clearly was when she wanted to buy a bun on the street. She couldn't speak, so she
She pointed at the basket and made gestures for a while, but she didn't expect that the vendor noticed her flaw. He quickly took out two cold steamed buns from the basket under the table and gave them to her, and then immediately drove her away. Only after he left did she realize that
The buns were probably sour not just from the overnight stay. At that time, she was so full of grievances that she couldn't express them. She really hated herself. Even today, she hasn't taken care of anything, and her life is in a mess.
But compared to being trapped in a cage-like home, it's probably just as bad.
Let's go back to this deserted village. If she wanted to go to the nearby city, she would either have to follow the escort agency to take the detour through the wilderness, or she would have to go through this village. The village is in the forest and it is easy to get lost. And the reason why she didn't go with the escort agency was that it was too expensive.
, and secondly, she is not safe as a woman who does not know martial arts. Sometimes the most dangerous
It's not the beasts or monsters on the road, but the people around you. This village is a shortcut, but no one will take it. On the one hand, the interior of the forest is complicated and there are few experienced people. On the other hand, the entrance to the village has been enchanted.
It was a blind trick. It was only after Yingyue Jun gave her some advice that she found the way in.
Why hide it? You don’t need to think too much about it. Someone must be doing something shameful. Didn’t Yingyue-kun just say that? There are monsters here. But since she still let her come, it should be safe here now.
of.
However, this village is really big.
The trees in the forest are all very tall, with dense crowns, blocking out the sun. The trees in the area where the village was originally built were relatively sparse, and the branches above that blocked the sun were cut down. Now they have grown back and become taller.
, shrouding the entire village under the shadow. It seems that this place has been abandoned for many years.
Have you ever been to this place? Yin Huan asked her in her heart.
"I've never been there before. I can't go anywhere in this world, let alone here."
I thought someone would bring you here.
"There are very few people who can talk to me directly when I am awake over the years, let alone follow me so troublesomely. You, after you find the fragment, you must go home honestly after your wish comes true."
In fact, she didn't know what her wish was. To regain her language ability? It would be such a waste to use up a wish like this. And although life is difficult, if she just becomes mute, it is not impossible to survive. Still.
Cutting off the memory of past lives? This seems to have no meaning, but if it just prevents oneself from being troubled by nightmares, it is still making a fuss.
As for the agreement with Yingyue Jun, it is actually a bit illusory. Yingyue Jun wants to find the monster with the fragment. In her sleep, she has her own way to find the trace and guide Yin Huan forward. But the matter of the fragment is also
It’s unclear. Maybe the fragments of the Ruyi Pearl have been used up long ago. Furthermore, the demon
Can the monster be so kind as to give it to me? So I still need to find a way out, that is to go to the Dead Shadow Pavilion. This is what Yingyue Jun suggested. Even if you can't express your clear needs, tell the situation to the Dead Shadow Pavilion, where
People can always think of something. However, she has nothing to exchange, which is also distressing.
"Oh, there seems to be a spiritual vein nearby..."
Really? Where does it lead?
"I don't know about this. We don't know where its entrance is yet. We just noticed it. If you weren't full of spiritual power, I wouldn't be able to feel it. If you were stronger, I would know better. It might be possible.
It’s a large six-path spiritual vein, so you won’t be able to use it.”
Let's continue on our way, don't always think about taking chances. Yin Quan sighed softly and continued to move forward. The forest was too quiet, and the slightest movement was unsettling. Moreover, it was just afternoon, but the light was as dim as
It was almost nightfall, and she really hoped to leave here before dark.
At this time, she heard a noise from the side of the room.
Yin Huan was startled, stopped, and moved her eyes over there carefully. It was a dilapidated house like most buildings, but the door was intact. The sound was only for a moment, maybe something fell, she advised
Don't think too much about it. But the less you let yourself think, the easier it is to think. There is no wind, no foreign objects touching or shaking, so why is there movement? Or... maybe it's a rat or a squirrel.
Such small animals?
It should just be a coincidence.
"There seems to be something there."
However, Yingyue Jun insisted on mentioning it. Yin Quan complained in her heart, do you still want me to go and have a look? Her curiosity was not strong enough yet. So she quickened her pace and left here.
But after that, every time she walked a certain distance, when she passed some buildings, they seemed to be
There seemed to be some strange noises coming from all over the place. This could not be considered a coincidence. The sounds were like the friction of tables, chairs or other inorganic objects, which was really frightening. Lord Yingyue no longer spoke in her head.
This made Yin Huan more and more uneasy. Her steps were getting faster and faster, and she just wanted to leave this land of right and wrong as soon as possible.
What's going on? Don't pretend to be dead. It's time for me to blame you...
"There seems to be a spiritual vein leading to Qinglize nearby..."
What's the meaning?
"Your spiritual power is stronger than I perceived - run."
What's going on???
Yingyue Jun issued a firm order in her mind. Yin Huan's heart tightened, and her feet really changed from brisk walking to sprinting. Many branches were broken under her feet, and the crackling sound was heard endlessly. Suddenly, there was a surge of energy in the surrounding buildings.
A strange object appeared - was it an object? Yin Huan felt weak all over, and his legs seemed to be no longer his own.
.Those things are white, maybe gray, and some are also flesh-colored. They poured out of the dilapidated doors and windows one after another, hesitating uncontrollably. Yin Huan didn't want to figure out what they were at all, he just wanted to hurry up.
She left, but where could she go? A window in front of her was suddenly knocked open, almost hitting Yin Huan's face. Now she could see clearly.
--people?!
Half of the "man"'s body poured out of the window, and the other half hung inside the house. Its arms danced in front of it irregularly, as if it was trying to catch something. Its head had no hair, but it seemed to have a human face.
It just has an outline, the lips have no color, and there are no eyeballs in the eye sockets, just two holes. Its head is also twisting in disorder, and it feels like it is dying.
What are these things?! Yin Huan turned her head stiffly and found that all the things before were monsters like humans. Those things seemed not complete enough, but one or two of them knew to chase her. She was very
Scared, she tripped over a protruding stone. The ground was relatively soft, so she didn't fall out, but she couldn't stand up. Those people with no hair and no clothes
The "people" just swarmed in like this. Although they couldn't walk like real people, they could always move forward in their own way. Some only had their upper bodies, crawling close with difficulty with their arms; some only had their waists.
The lower two legs also moved forward crookedly step by step. Her mind was blank, and it took Yingyue Jun a lot of effort to make her aware of her own voice.
"Wake up! Fight back, quickly!"
Even if Yingyue-kun says so...
"Lend it to me and I'll take care of it."
What?
She was sure that it was Yingyue Jun's voice, but she didn't understand what she said. For a moment, she seemed to understand what Yingyue Jun meant - to temporarily hand over the control of the body to her. When Yin Huan understood this
At one o'clock, she may have... agreed. Because the next moment, she suddenly picked up the shovel leaning against the wall and swung it in a circular motion.
Wow!
In just an instant, the "person" who was attacking in front of him was cut in half, and debris was scattered all over the ground.
Is it... porcelain? Through the touch of the decayed wooden stick, Yin Quan felt the vibration when it was broken, like breaking a huge vase. But this had no deterrent effect, and the movements of those things only paused for a very short time.
for a while, then not again
She stepped forward. Yin Quan's body was not under her control, and it wasn't even an instinct - she waved the shovel in her hand, chopping, splitting, and shooting. Although it wasn't a martial art, it was to a certain extent.
There is still no problem with self-protection.
The crackling sound is endless. Yin Hu already knows that these things are all clay dolls and puppets without exception. But how do they move? There is no mechanism inside, and there are no puppet strings on the outside for pulling. Thinking about it carefully, you can only
What kind of strange magic is it? In addition, Yingyue Jun said before that there was a scent of monsters coming, and this place is so close to Qinglize...
Just as she was thinking about it, the shovel in her hand broke.
After all, many years have passed, and the humidity in the forest is very heavy, so the moss-covered stick has long become rotten and easily broken. Yin Quan clenched the broken stick in his hand and pointed the sharp part at them.
.But these puppets probably don't have emotions such as fear, so such intimidation cannot become a threat.
She leaned against the wall and waved the stick in her hand randomly. She no longer knew whether it was Lord Yingyue or herself who was controlling her movements now. The puppets that had not completely lost their ability to move slowly dragged their incomplete and cracked limbs.
Get closer to her.
Looking up, the gaps between the leaves split the sky into fragments, making the gradient colors stand out in their own way.
