In Mingyue Community, Li Leping and Zhang Xiaoxiao quickly bypassed a row of residential buildings.
The roads in this old community are not modern cement roads or asphalt roads, but dirt roads.
Some places on the road have cracked, making it uncomfortable to walk on. From time to time, you can hear the "sand" sound of the soles rubbing against the sand.
The residents in the community have already been relocated to other places. Today, the community is silent and eerily quiet. In addition, it is somewhat affected by thick smoke, so the surrounding houses are all plunged into darkness and look eerie.
fear.
No one can guarantee whether a figure will suddenly be reflected in the window of a certain room.
You can still see some small advertisements posted on the walls with peeling paint and on the telephone poles.
I don’t know how free the person who posted the advertisement is to post the advertisement here.
This community is not big, and Li Leping and Zhang Xiaoxiao did not have time to explore the community in depth. Soon, they passed by a row of old buildings.
No abnormalities were found.
The archway of the community is right in front of us, at most a hundred meters away.
Although the archway has been blackened by thick smoke, and the original lines on it cannot be seen, nor what is written on the plaque, you can still clearly see the archway standing in the smoke.
The conspicuous building outline cannot be covered by the thick smoke.
But at this moment.
Li Leping, who had been leading the way, suddenly stopped.
"what happened?"
Zhang Xiaoxiao, who was following behind, quickly stepped forward and stood side by side with Li Leping.
Li Leping raised his head and looked at the sky shrouded in thick smoke.
"Don't you think it's getting a lot darker here?"
When I looked up, I saw that the originally thin smoke had become thicker at some point. The thick smoke seemed to have broken through the supernatural interference in the community and gradually seeped in from the outside.
The gap where a few rays of sunlight could originally shine through has now been swallowed up by more smoke.
The sky was completely covered by black smoke and dust, and there was almost no sunlight visible.
"Is it getting dark?" Zhang Xiaoxiao lied to himself.
It was afternoon when they came, and now it's autumn and winter. Maybe it gets dark faster?
If you can't see any sunlight at this time, it seems to be quite normal?
Li Leping glanced at him sideways.
But just when he was about to say something.
Suddenly.
A strange feeling arises from the bottom of my heart.
Immediately, Li Leping, who was carrying Fan Jian, suddenly turned around and walked back to the community.
"Huh? Why do you want to go back again?"
Zhang Xiaoxiao was stunned immediately.
Li Leping didn't explain too much, and said in a low voice: "Stop talking, a ghost is coming."
"What?"
Zhang Xiaoxiao shivered, opened his eyes wide, and immediately looked around.
Nothing at all.
Everything is normal, there is no ghost at all.
Where is the ghost?
Zhang Xiaoxiao followed Li Leping for a few steps, but was still confused.
But in just these few steps.
When Zhang Xiaoxiao turned around again, his eyes suddenly shrank, and his heartbeat seemed to have stopped at this moment.
Behind the community archway, or rather on the periphery of the entire community, the original thin layer of smoke was covered by more ferocious black smoke.
The smoke is no longer thin, but has evolved into thick floating smoke.
The sky was dark, as if it were blocking out the sun, and the smoke was thick, blocking the sunlight and cutting off life.
Sudden.
Vaguely, deep in the thick smoke, a sudden figure appeared.
The figure looked like a "person" made up of countless smoke particles.
But soon, the figure disappeared in the smoke and disappeared.
Zhang Xiaoxiao wiped his eyes subconsciously.
I don't know if I saw it wrong.
However.
Immediately afterwards, his eyes revealed an extremely frightened look.
That's not an illusion.
The thick smoke seems to have been stimulated by something, and it is gradually rushing this way.
In the smoke, the figure made of soot gathered and dissipated again and again, getting closer and closer to the community.
"Your mother's kiss."
Zhang Xiaoxiao was so frightened that he cursed loudly.
The ghost is really here.
He hurriedly walked to Li Leping's side, but kept looking behind him.
"Brother, please walk faster." Zhang Xiaoxiao urged.
Because although Li Leping was walking, his speed was not fast, just a little faster than walking.
For those who didn’t know, I thought he came to Mingyue Community to hang out.
"Do not talk."
Li Leping turned around, his eyes were indifferent and very cold.
The ghosts in this thick smoke are not the common ghosts that look like dead people.
The source ghost of the ghost realm has no entity at all. The thick smoke itself is the source ghost, and it only occasionally aggregates into human form.
No wonder the ghosts in the ghost realm never appeared around them when they were looking for a way in the old city.
This is not because they are lucky, but because the flames of the will-o'-the-wisp lanterns create a safe zone in the ghost realm. The ghost realm cannot penetrate into the safe zone, and the ghosts will naturally not target them.
But now, some unknown factor seems to have broken the balance between the thick smoke and Mingyue Community, causing the ghosts in the thick smoke to begin to move into the community.
But at present, this ghost still cannot completely break through the supernatural power of Mingyue Community, and can only be forced to wander outside the community.
But now it seems that it is only a matter of time before this ghost smoke penetrates.
The sky is darkening, not because the sun is setting, but because of the thick smoke covering Mingyue Community, there are fewer and fewer places that can be illuminated by the sun.
Thick smoke approached from all directions.
Li Leping was still walking slowly.
He passed by old buildings in Mingyue Community. Every time he passed an old building, he would pause in front of the building to observe the degree of smoke in the building.
The architectural layout of the community is three buildings in a row.
He had already inspected the first two rows of old buildings before. Among them, the three buildings in the first row were closest to the periphery of the community, so the traces of smoke were the most obvious and had been completely disfigured by black smoke.
As for the second row, it was basically also affected, with patches of black dirt on it, but it was not as polluted as the first row of old buildings.
Now he's going to the third row.
"What exactly are you looking for?"
Zhang Xiaoxiao was holding the body of a ghost controller in his hand. He didn't understand why Li Leping kept leading him around the community.
Obviously, ghosts are already lingering at the entrance of the community.
There was even a faint smell of smoke coming from the surroundings, as if there was a fire outside. The thick smoke was gradually drifting in, and the smell of thick smoke was accompanied by a strange burning smell, as if someone had burned the incinerator.
The lid was opened, and a dead body was still burning inside the stove.
At this time, shouldn't we deal with the ghost first?
Li Leping had no time to answer Zhang Xiaoxiao, but continued walking in front, holding the already demented Fan Jian in his hand.
Zhang Xiaoxiao didn't know what he planned, but since he was here, he had no choice but to keep going.
At this time.
Li Leping stopped.
In front of me is a row of old residential buildings. The garbage in the trash can in front of the building is overflowing. It looks like it hasn't been cleaned for a long time.
This is the third row of Mingyue Community.
The iron sign on the side of the building says how many buildings there are here.
According to the sequential planning, from left to right are the seventh, eighth and ninth buildings of the community.
