I'm not a psychopath!

Qin Xiaosui jumped to Luo Shui's side, and her attention was quickly attracted by the confetti on the ground.

She knelt down, picked up a scrap of paper, and looked through it curiously: "What are these? They look like paper but not quite. Why are they scattered here?"

"These scraps of paper. They don't seem to be ordinary paper. Their existence may be related to the secret of this space." Shen Chengxian said suddenly.

Everyone was silent. What you said is like saying nothing. Forget it, you shouldn't have any intellectual expectations for this guy who only focuses on his chest muscles.

Seeing that the atmosphere was somewhat silent, Bailiye reconciled and said, "Shen Chengxian is right. These scraps of paper may be a clue. We can study it."

Luo Shui also joined the discussion: "These confetti are scattered so widely, they may have been blown from a specific location. We should start investigating from the place where the confetti is densest."

Qin Xiaosui suddenly pointed in a direction, his eyes flashing with excitement: "Look over there! There are a lot of confetti there, let's go there and look for it!"

Qin Xiaosui and her companions followed the trail of paper scraps and went deeper step by step.

As they went deeper, the confetti became increasingly dense, as if they were the remnants of some ritual or event.

They noticed that the scraps of paper formed a faint trail on the ground, leading them to a hidden spot.

Luo Shui squatted down and looked at the ground.

"Someone has walked on this road, and these confetti are thin. Unless they are deliberately concealed, people walking on it will naturally bring the confetti around their feet."

"just in front."

Sure enough, they found a cave at the foot of the city wall.

"Hey, what is that?"

Qin Xiaosui saw a white object not far away, and walked over and picked it up.

It's a mask.

She knew this mask. Jiang Qing had always hung it on her waist, almost inseparable from it.

"This cave," Qin Xiaosui whispered, his eyes flashing with eagerness and alertness, "Jiang Qing might have entered from here."

Shen Chengxian stared at the cave with a thoughtful expression on his face: "This cave is not simple. Its existence may be closely connected with the secrets of the entire space."

Bailiye was more practical. He looked around and analyzed: "If Jiang Qing really entered from here, then this cave may be a passage leading to an important place...

It’s the eternal underworld!

We have to be careful, there may be unknown dangers hidden inside. "

Just as Qin Xiaosui and her companions were preparing to dig into the ground, a heart-stopping roar suddenly sounded in their ears.

The sound seemed to come from deep underground, low and powerful, accompanied by an indescribable sense of oppression.

"Oh my god, there's a ghost!"

Qin Xiaosui was so frightened that he jumped out of the hole, grabbed Luo Shui's arm and hid behind her.

"what's the situation……"

Everyone turned to look.

I saw that the huge bronze door opened slowly without anyone touching it.

The light coming from the crack in the door was not warm, but had a cold aura, as if the portal to another world was opening to them.

As the bronze door gradually opened, a cold wind blew from behind the door, carrying a damp and decaying smell.

"What the hell is this place?" Bailiye's voice was trembling. He clenched the weapon in his hand and looked around cautiously.

"Why does it smell like this dank smell again?" Shen Chengxian complained dissatisfiedly.

"Yes, after the Battle of Luck started, I don't know why, but it always feels eerie to people, but things like Luck...shouldn't they belong to the Holy God?" Bailiye frowned and asked. Take a drink.

"The devil knows..."

Qin Xiaosui and his companions couldn't help but shudder. They realized that there might be unknown secrets hidden behind this door.

When the giant bronze door slowly opened, revealing the hidden world behind it, Qin Xiaosui and her companions couldn't help but hold their breath.

The world behind the door was completely different from what they expected. It was not gold and silver treasures or a mysterious palace, but a desolate ghost town, full of gloom and deathly silence.

After the bronze door was fully opened, a huge space appeared in front of them, but unlike the mysterious palace or treasure they imagined, this place was a desolate ghost town.

The city walls are dilapidated and the streets are deserted. Only the rustling sound of the worn flags and cloth streamers when the wind blows adds to the spookiness.

In the ghost town, the outlines of buildings are vaguely visible in the dim light. Some have collapsed, while others are crumbling.

On both sides of the street, some shop-like facades are dilapidated, with broken windows and half-open doors, as if to tell the story of the prosperity of the past and the desolation of the present.

Qin Xiaosui and his companions carefully stepped into this ghost town. Their footsteps echoed in the empty streets and seemed particularly clear.

They watched their surroundings vigilantly, looking for any possible clues or dangers.

"Huh?" Luo Hua noticed the situation, "There are some seemingly ordinary objects here, broken pottery pots and rusty ironware, but they are emitting a faint light and seem to hide some kind of power."

"Junior brother Luo is right." Luo Shui also said as if he was facing a formidable enemy: "And those seemingly abandoned buildings occasionally have some strange lights coming out from the windows or door cracks, which makes people wonder. Is there any unknown existence hidden there? ”

"Cun, what exists...?"

Qin Xiaosui asked weakly.

"In this ghost town, if there is anything, it's probably a ghost." Bailiye said casually.

This scared Qin Xiaosui enough, and she hugged Luo Shui tightly, and the latter touched her little head. This guy is not afraid of anything.

He is even good at dissecting corpses.

I didn't expect that she was afraid of ghosts?

It's probably because she was scared too much by the adults in her family when she was a child, so don't scare children casually...

Luo Shui shook her head and complained in her heart.

Shen Chengxian frowned, and his eyes revealed a trace of uneasiness: "The atmosphere here is not right, we have to be careful."

"You just discovered it now..."

"Huh? Did you know it a long time ago? Isn't it the first time for us to come to this place?" Shen Chengxian expressed his incomprehension.

Everyone: "..."

Luo Shui seemed calmer. She carefully observed the surrounding environment and tried to find any possible clues: "There must be a reason for the existence of the ghost town. We can't be fooled by appearances. We must find clues about Jiang Qing."

Although Qin Xiaosui was a little scared, her curiosity drove her to explore more: "Yeah, we can't just give up!

I didn't save Jiang Qing!"

Just as they were about to explore further, a cold wind blew, accompanied by the sound of the wind, and there seemed to be low sobs and crying, which made people creepy.

"What's the sound?" Amid the doubts of the crowd, a tense atmosphere filled the air.

At this moment, Luo Hua looked back inadvertently, his eyes suddenly widened, and a horrified expression appeared on his face: "The bronze door is about to close!"

His voice was almost screaming.

This sudden shout scared everyone, and they turned around and saw that the heavy bronze door was slowly closing, making a dull roar.

This sound was like the death knell of the god of death, ringing in everyone's heart.

They realized that when the bronze door was completely closed, they would be trapped in this ghost town with no way out.

"Boom!!" With a loud bang, the bronze door was completely closed, isolating everything from the outside world.

At this time, everyone's face turned livid. They felt unprecedented panic and despair. They were trapped in an unknown, gloomy ghost town with no way out and no hope.

No one would know.

As for this wall and bronze door, they had tried it outside, and even if they tried their best, they couldn't leave any marks on it.

"It's over now, we can't get out."

Shen Chengxian looked ashen.

"If this bronze door doesn't open, it's really over. The problem is, who knows how often it will open. You know, the battle of luck only lasts a few days.

If it opens late, won't we be left in this world?" Bailiye was stunned after saying this.

The people who listened were also stunned.

They couldn't help but think of someone.

The owner of the diary was left in this world, and then encountered a series of strange things, which gradually broke his spirit.

They are afraid that they will follow in each other's footsteps.

"I can't get out..."

"No!" Qin Xiaosui suddenly said at this desperate moment. Although her voice was weak, she was firm, "There is still a cave."

As if they had grabbed the last straw, everyone quickly walked to the location where the cave existed.

However, when they arrived there, they found that the cave had disappeared without leaving any trace. At this moment, everyone's face darkened, and their hearts were filled with fear and uneasiness.

They all felt like trapped prey. Starting from the abandoned forest farm, one thing after another was to lure them to this place.

Every step, every choice seemed to be controlled by some unknown force, leading them to this desperate situation.

"What should we do?" Qin Xiaosui's voice was rarely trembling.

Bailiye held the weapon tightly in his hand, and his eyes revealed a trace of determination: "We can't sit and wait for death, we must find a way out."

Shen Chengxian began to carefully observe the surrounding environment, trying to find any possible clues: "There must be a reason for the existence of the ghost town. We need to calm down and look carefully."

Luo Shui remained calm, her eyes swept around, looking for any possible escape route: "Yes! We can't give up, there must be a way."

In this gloomy ghost town, they felt unprecedented isolation and helplessness.

But we must not give up! !

"Go find Jiang Qing first!"

They made a decision.

A group of people walked on the empty streets, and the silence around them seemed to swallow all sounds.

Luo Shui couldn't help rubbing her hands, trying to dispel the coldness of her fingertips. She opened her mouth and exhaled a breath of warm air.

But when the hot air met the cold air, it quickly condensed into white mist, slowly rising and dissipating in the cold air, just like being in a cold winter day.

"Why is it so cold?" Shen Chengxian, the biggest one, couldn't help but ask.

As cultivators, they usually don't feel cold unless they encounter extreme weather, such as in the ice and snow in the north.

But the cold here is obviously different. It seems to come from another dimension, penetrating their clothes and hitting their bones.

The cold here is a different kind of cold.

Luo Hua put forward his own opinion, and his voice echoed in the empty street: "It may be dead air, or Yin Qi, which is caused by the gathering of souls after death."

"Soul?" Isn't the soul a ghost? Luo Shui thought silently in her heart, but she didn't say it out loud. She didn't want to make Qin Xiaosui, who was already scared enough, more panic.

"In other words, there are souls everywhere here that can't dissipate?" Bailiye's voice was uncertain. He looked around, as if he wanted to find the answer from this dead environment.

Luo Hua nodded, and a glimmer of memory flashed in his eyes: "I used to have a great influence in the younger generation of Ziyun Sect. After all, I was a disciple of the elder and had contact with many people.

Among them, some people secretly refined soul sails, which could quickly improve their strength. They used the souls of some extremely evil people, so I didn't care.

Looking back, when I entered his room or approached him, I would feel the same coldness as now."

"How about taking a look?" Bailiye suggested.

If it is a ghost, you can see through it with the simplest pupil technique. Everyone present is the elite among the elites. Although no one majors in pupil techniques, it is not difficult to see ghosts with eyes.

Several people looked at each other, nodded, and then concentrated their minds and opened their own pupil techniques.

Sure enough, when their sight penetrated the fog, they saw a different scene.

Their faces turned pale in an instant, because they found that there were wandering ghosts everywhere, sitting or standing, floating or walking, with no trace of life in their empty eyes, but exuding a palpitating chill.

Qin Xiaosui tightly grasped the corner of Luo Shui's clothes, her body trembled involuntarily, although she tried to stay calm, but the scene in front of her was too shocking.

Luo Shui gently patted her hand to give her some comfort, and at the same time silently thought about countermeasures in his heart.

Shen Chengxian frowned, he knew that what they were facing now was not just a ghost town, but a world full of unknowns and dangers.

They must act carefully, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.

…

On the other side.

Jiang Qing staggered to his feet after being sucked in by an irresistible force.

He looked around and saw that the buildings around him were dilapidated, the streets were empty and cold, and the whole space was filled with a suffocating silence.
