The night was as dark as ink, dotted with stars, and from time to time a light wind blew, mixed with the crow's cry, which was very strange, and the three figures were now shuttling vigorously on the path of the village.

"This ...... It's too dark, where are we going?"

Dieyi followed Ye Chen around all the way, and couldn't help but be a little scared in her heart, and asked in a low voice.

"Look for the old man in the square during the day. ”

Ye Chen tried his best to grope along the road and said to Dieyi.

Who knew that Dieyi didn't do it when she heard this, she shook Ye Chen's hand away suddenly, and said a little angrily: "What are you looking for him, that person is not a good person at first glance!

"Don't worry about it so much, let's go over and talk about it first. ”

At this time, Ye Chen didn't have time to explain to her, so he grabbed her hand and continued to run forward.

"Uh......h Woo......"

A few people had just walked for a while, and suddenly there was a cry of a child not far away, one by one, as if calling for something.

"How...... What's going on......"

Dieyi, who was already a little worried, was even more frightened at this time, and pressed her whole body tightly to Ye Chen's body, and asked in a trembling voice.

Discovered?

The moment he heard the cry, Ye Chen's brain crashed violently, and a bad premonition appeared in his mind.

No.

Ye Chen looked at the direction where the voice came from, that place should still be some distance away from them, not to mention, that location was fundamentally opposite to the village chief's house.

Thinking of this, Ye Chen breathed a sigh of relief slightly-as long as it wasn't discovered, it should be fine.

Would you like to go and have a look?

It's better not to make a fuss now, because it's not good if it causes some ripple effects, but if the sound has something to do with the secrets of the village, you might miss an opportunity if you don't go.

Ye Chen stood in place and struggled for a long time, and finally decided to grope his way over to take a look—just a glance, and leave immediately if there was something wrong!

After making up his mind, Ye Chen first cautiously applied a layer of vajra spells to several people, and then slowly walked in the direction where the voice came from.

"Wow......"

As the few people got closer and closer to the source of the sound, the child's cry became louder and louder, and at last it screamed like a roar!

Wrong!

Feeling the abnormality, Ye Chen paused.

Can't anyone in the village hear such a loud cry?

Why hasn't anyone come out?

Or is it only the three of them who can hear it?

Ye Chen's heart became more and more chaotic - the more unknown things were, the more frightening they became.

"We ...... Are you still going that way?"

Dieyi pointed ahead, with tears in her eyes, and said tremblingly.

"Hmm, what's wrong with you?" Listening to Dieyi's voice, something was not quite right, Ye Chen turned his face sideways and asked with concern.

"No, no, leave me alone, you, behind your back!" Dieyi saw him turn his head, the horror in his eyes was even stronger, and he pointed at Ye Chen's back and screamed.

Back?

A chill slowly crept up from the soles of his feet—from the moment he turned his head sideways, he felt something crawl up his back—cool, slippery, tiny......

Ye Chen froze in place for a while and didn't dare to move, he was always worried that if he moved too much and angered the thing on his back, the result might be even worse.

But standing all the time was useless, thinking of this, Ye Chen slowly accumulated strength in his hand, and the last breath exploded from his body: "Eight Qi Collapse!"

"Ahh

"Bang!"

It's just that this trick doesn't distinguish between friend and foe, and Dieyi and Bloody Wutian flew upside down along with the thing on their backs.

At this time, Ye Chen finally had time to take a closer look at the thing that had just climbed on his back—sure enough, it was a child, but this child looked quite terrifying—his little face was pale, and his two eyes were filled with black pupils, and there was no trace of whites of his eyes......

"Don't, don't come here!"

Dieyi's body moved back vigorously, and her right hand kept waving, trying to stop the child who kept looking at her—when Ye Chen was still looking at the child, the child stared at Dieyi lying on the side in a blink of an eye, and then tried to crawl over.

Damn it!

How can it be so dark!

Somehow, the light around the kid was much dimmer after being blown away, and he could still see a distance of about ten meters, but now he could only see the tips of his own toes - not even an arm's length away.

This feeling is like being deprived of the five senses, depressed and helpless.

"Dieyi!" Ye Chen saw that he couldn't see the surroundings clearly, he was anxious, and he didn't care if he would wake up the people around him, so he began to shout loudly, "Dieyi, can you hear me?"

Quiescence.

Deathly silence.

Ye Chen's voice seemed to be swallowed up by darkness, and there was not a trace of echo.

No, no, Dieyi will be fine, isn't Blood Wutian also guarding there.

Ye Chen took a few deep breaths and tried to comfort himself.

This feeling is too oppressive, that feeling of helplessness.

"Ye Chen, help me ......"

In the silence, I don't know how long it took, and a faint cry for help suddenly came from not far away.

"Where are you? I'll go over here!"

It's a butterfly!

Ye Chen, who heard the voice, was excited in his heart, and he raised his feet and was about to walk over.

"Ye Chen, help me ......"

The voice became more and more urgent, mixed with crying, which made Ye Chen's heart more and more panicked, and his steps became faster and faster.

Wait for me, wait for me, I'm here to save you.

"Ye Chen! help me!"

The voice was already a little hysterical at this time, uneasy, angry, nervous, scared, all kinds of emotions contained in the voice, which made people's hearts tremble.

But after hearing this voice, Ye Chen stopped and looked at the ground under his feet with some disbelief—the ground that had just exploded with eight qi collapses appeared under his feet again at this time.

Is it another ghost hitting the wall?

Who is the owner of that voice?

Is it Butterfly?

Or is it something else?

For a while, Ye Chen's mind was full of thoughts, the current environment was too weird, and there were too many abnormal places......

"Ye Chen, why don't you save me!Ye Chen, why don't you save me......"

Dieyi's resentful voice sounded not far away again, and this time the anger contained in it far exceeded the previous voice.

That's right!

Although the broken eye often dropped the chain, fortunately, this time it always worked normally.

After he saw his surroundings clearly, his heart was even more panicked than before-Dieyi and Xuewutian, who were supposed to be not far away, had already run there without knowing it, and the child just now disappeared with them......

"Smack......

A black talisman fell from his head at some point and landed at his feet.

Is this the thing that makes me lost?

Ye Chen picked up the black talisman and examined it carefully.

"Ding, discover a new consumable item: Shadow Talisman. ”

"Item Effect: Attach the charm to the target's forehead to trap them in the shadow world. If they are unable to escape after three hours, the shadow and the ontological identity are reversed, and the target will be trapped in the shadow world forever. ”

It seems that this is the thing, yes.

Hearing the system prompt, Ye Chen's heart moved, sure enough, it was this thing!

It's just a pity that it's already consumed......

Shadow Mouse, Shadow Talisman...... Could it be that the old man did all this?

The more Ye Chen thought about it, the more wrong it became—how could there be such a coincidence, the child who appeared in the middle of the night, and the charm attached to his body......

The key is that the only person who knows his path of action, except for Dieyi and Bloody Wutian, is the old man.

Thinking of this, Ye Chen's heart became more and more panicked, he always felt that Dieyi and Blood Wutian had been captured by the old man......

"Hey, what are you doing there, why don't you come and help me!"

Ye Chen had just walked around the corner when he heard Dieyi's anxious voice coming over.

I haven't come out of the shadow world yet?

Ye Chen didn't dare to be sure for a while, hurriedly put a thunder spell in his hand, and slowly walked in the direction where the voice came from.

"Come here, what are you rubbing!"

Ye Chen took a few steps forward and found that Dieyi was scuffling with the child, and this time he heard Dieyi's urging, and he finally settled down - it was good that he hadn't been arrested.

At this time, Dieyi and Xuewutian were a little embarrassed - the child was small in size and was already very flexible, plus Dieyi and Xuewutian couldn't see anything clearly because the light was too dark, and they were caught by the kid for a while.

"I'm coming!"

Seeing this scene, Ye Chen hurriedly stepped forward, and was about to slam down with a thunder spell.

"Little friends have mercy!"

A loud voice suddenly came from behind Ye Chen, and then the old man in the square walked towards a few people during the day.

"Little friend, can this child ......?"

Seeing that the thunder in Ye Chen's hand was about to blast down, the old man hurriedly shouted at Ye Chen and discussed.

"Bang ......"

With a burst of lightning, the child dissipated directly into the air.

Ye Chen looked at the old man not far away with some amusement and said innocently.

"What did you just say? I didn't hear you too clearly. ”
