His shout was so sudden that I didn't even know what was going on.

just instinctively straightened up, raised his weapon at the same time as Xu Zixuan, and was on guard all around.

But the dimly lit orphanage was silent, and nothing could be seen except the sound of thunderstorms outside.

Xu Zizhao opened his hands with his back to us, protecting us behind him, and kept staring at the end of the corridor on the left.

Then, he turned back and whispered:

"You two stand still and wait for me to come back!"

With that, he walked slowly towards the end.

At the end of the corridor there was a closed wooden door, with an old lock on it, but the door was broken and cracked, and from me I could barely see a little bit of it through the crack.

It always gives me the feeling that something will suddenly pop out of this broken door.

Even Xu Zizhao was extra careful when he walked by, every time he passed through a door, he would turn his head and carefully check for a few seconds, and only after making sure that there was no danger did he continue to walk forward.

Xu Zixuan and I were standing at the top of the stairs, and we didn't dare to move, just staring at Xu Zizhao's back.

This corridor is not long, Xu Zizhao walked smoothly to the wooden door, he checked up and down a little for a while, and then kicked the door open with a sudden "bang!", the wooden door rotted and shattered in an instant.

In an instant, a cool breeze with a strong smell of decay blew out of the room.

Even though we were standing so far away, we still felt the chill of the wind.

Xu Zizhao's curly hair was blown up, but he never looked back and walked in resolutely.

Xu Zixuan stood beside me and shouted worriedly:

"Brother, be careful!"

Soon, Xu Zizhao's figure disappeared from our field of vision, because the room was so dark that there was no light at all.

We stared at the open wooden door for about twenty minutes.

But there was no movement inside, no fighting, no talking, as if no one had ever come, quiet.

Only the wooden door on the ground that Xu Zizhao had just kicked and shattered, proving that he had been here.

I sensed something was wrong, so I turned my head and took a closer look at the orphanage.

The man who was silent in the dimly lit orphanage was afraid, but there really was no change, except, of course, the dimmer light.

I glanced at Xu Zixuan, who had been staring at the wooden door worriedly.

I coughed and asked in a whisper:

"Your brother...... Could it be?"

Xu Zixuanxiu frowned, gritted his teeth and said directly to me:

"Shut up!"

I shrugged my shoulders awkwardly, so I leaned against the wall and took a cigarette out and lit it.

Xu Zixuan probably smelled the smoke, turned his head to look at me, and was not polite, raised his hand and snatched the cigarette I had just put in his mouth.

I smiled lightly, I was no longer surprised by Xu Zixuan's personality, but I liked this unruly girl more and more.

I re-lit a cigarette and tried to say:

"Shall we go find your brother, maybe he can help?"

After Xu Zixuan took a cigarette from me, his attitude towards me improved slightly, but he only glanced at me more and said:

"My brother just said, don't walk around!"

This was the end of the conversation, and the two of them just leaned against the stairwell and smoked, one after the other, until I finished the whole pack of cigarettes by Xu Zixuan.

At this time, the heavy rain outside became more and more intense, and the crackling was eager to crush the house.

I looked at the time, and it was already six o'clock in the afternoon.

I don't know what time Xu Zizhao meant when he said he was leaving before dark when he took us upstairs, but at this pace, time was running out.

The old man in black must have asked me to come to the orphanage for his own reasons, but now that I am staying where I am, I have not received any goods at all.

I scratched my head and spoke again:

"It's not a way to wait like this, the orphanage is so big......"

As a result, before I could finish speaking, Xu Zixuan directly interrupted me, stood up straight and said:

"Let's go, look for it!"

I was stunned, Xu Zixuan had already lifted the scimitar in his hand and walked forward.

I quickly squeezed the slinger stick and followed.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but just after we left the previous place, the cold wind around me suddenly became violent, blowing my neck and my arms were freezing and aching.

We are walking the same road that Xu Zizhao has walked.

There are three closed doors in the left hallway, each with a square glass window that remains intact even in such a dilapidated orphanage.

Every time we pass by, we will reflect the shadow of our passing.

As I walked to the second door, I was suddenly curious to see what the room was like inside.

So, I leaned over lightly, because it was dark and reflective, so I couldn't see clearly, only my own blurry face.

I got closer and closer, and finally my eyes were only two centimeters away from the glass, and almost my whole face was almost up.

But I still couldn't see the room, and I had a strange feeling in my heart that I couldn't tell.

I stared inside with wide eyes, unblinking, trying to see better.

At that moment, the eye on the glass, which I thought was my own shadow, blinked twice.

I broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly took half a step back.

I thought it was my own dazzle, and I closed my eyes and shook my head vigorously, and when I opened my eyes, the figure on the glass was actually bent and laughing!

I was scared and "Ahh

Instinctively, he stepped back and hit the hallway railing.

Xu Zixuan had already walked to the broken wooden door, and was about to raise his feet to go inside, when he heard my shout, he quickly turned around, raised his scimitar and rushed towards me.

At the same time, he frowned and asked:

"What's wrong?"

I threw out my stick with a "pop!", pointed to the smiling glass just now, and said:

"There's someone in here!"

Xu Zixuan frowned and looked over, but at this time, the figure on the glass had already disappeared.

Back to normal.

Xu Zixuan stared at the glass for a while, and said to me with some suspicion:

"Are you afraid of getting dazzled?"

I didn't know how to explain it, so I wiped the cold sweat on my forehead and said seriously:

"I'm sure, I really saw a face smiling at me from behind glass!"

Xu Zixuan still didn't believe me, and after looking at the glass again, he said to me:

"Keep up with me!"

After saying that, she didn't care about what she had just done, and walked to the house where her brother had entered again.

I swallowed my saliva helplessly, and I didn't dare to venture to find that smiling face again, so I had to follow Xu Zixuan.

After the fright, I felt much colder, but as soon as I stepped into the cabin, it became cold again.

The room is pitch black, you can't see anything, and it's appropriate to describe it as if you can't see your fingers.
