Chapter 384: More than half a step
The night was so quiet that you couldn't even hear the sound of insects chirping. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Even the sound of the swaying and colliding of those red lanterns was particularly clear in this night.
After passing a few intersections, they found out on the first day. Not all street intersections are hung with red lanterns.
Only the main road they walked, the main road leading to the city gate, was hung with those strange lanterns.
The rest of the streets and alleys are shrouded in darkness. As they continued to walk into the city, the surrounding houses gradually became less dilapidated.
Even some of the houses seem to be inhabited. Through the thin window paper, you can even see the fire flickering in the room.
As they continued to move into the city, the atmosphere became more and more oppressive. That kind of oppression makes people yearn to hear something.
No matter what the sound is, as long as it can break the deathly silence.
Walking and walking, Tianyi finally couldn't bear it anymore and walked towards a house that was still glowing with a faint fire.
"Hey! Is there anyone in there? ”
Tianyi shouted into the house.
The house in front of them didn't know how many years had passed, and the walls were already grayish-yellow. The screen window made of wooden frame is also covered with small holes.
"Yes, yes..."
An old and hoarse voice came from the room, how it sounded, how it felt unnatural.
But even so, Tianyi had a smile on his face. Either way, at least they could inquire about the situation in the city.
After walking in the dead city for so long, even though it was a somewhat unpleasant voice at this time, it also made Tianyi's heart feel a lot more reassured.
Just as Tianyi was about to push Neng in, Nan Xinyu suddenly grabbed him.
Tianyi didn't understand the meaning of Nanxin's words, and was about to ask the reason. I saw Nan Xinyu, put his index finger to his lips, and made a silent gesture to him.
Although Tianyi didn't know why Nan Xinyu did this, he still swallowed back the words that came to his mouth.
At this time, all I could hear was the sound of a clang coming from the hut. It's like a person, pushing a heavy piece of wood on the ground.
But the sound they heard at this time was obviously not so smooth, and it sounded intermittent. With each sound, the fire in the room shook a little.
The voice rang out for a long time, but no one came to open the door. In Tianyi's heart, a strange feeling was born.
Glancing at Nan Xinyu and Xue Yao, Tianyi pointed to the window full of small holes on one side.
Tianyi's meaning originally meant that he went to the window to take a look. Let Xue Yao and Nan Xinyu wait in place, but who would have thought.
Xue Yao and Nan Xinyu also followed him to the window, and then without waiting for him to speak, they had already leaned their eyes towards the window.
Seeing what Tianyi could say at this time, he could only smile bitterly and close his eyes.
Immediately, three people looked through the hole in the screen window. They all looked into the room in unison. The eyes of the three of them were full of curiosity one moment, but the next moment they had all become shocked.
Xue Yao bit her lip tightly, trying not to scream.
Through the faint light, Xue Yao vaguely saw the scene inside the house. Although the space in the house is small, it gives people a feeling of emptiness.
There was only one table, one chair and one bed in the room, and all of them looked shabby. The chair, in particular, was still a little crooked. It seems that as soon as you sit on it, it will fall apart immediately.
On the square table next to it, there is an oil lamp. It's just that the oil lamp is a little special, it doesn't have only one core, but seven.
It gives Tianyi the feeling that it looks like the seven-star lamp lit after death.
If these are just weird, then the things on the bed not far away are a little scary.
On a wooden bed about half a foot above the ground, instead of a futon, there was a black coffin. The coffin still looks new, and it seems that someone is wiping it every day.
Just when the first day of the day and the others wanted to look closely, a loud voice suddenly came from the pitch-black coffin. That kind of sound, the same kind of voice they heard at the door.
As the sound sounded, the lights in the room shook inexplicably. In the small hut, it suddenly became light and dark.
By the flickering light, they saw that the lid of the coffin was slowly moving back. It seems that there is something to get up from the coffin.
Just as they were feeling frightened, a dry palm suddenly stretched out from the coffin.
At this moment, Tianyi. Xue Yao, including Nan Xinyu, actually forgot that she was an immortal cultivator. They hurriedly ran to the streets and alleys, looking back from time to time while running.
It wasn't until they ran away for a long time that the door to the hut slowly opened.
"Already, is there one?"
The door was opened by a woman with a face like an old woman. However, she was wearing a long dress worn by a young woman.
After looking around for a while, she didn't find anyone, and then she slowly closed the door again.
"It's... It... Didn't chase it! ”
Tianyi was running and keeping an eye on the surroundings. When he speaks of it, he naturally refers to what is inside the coffin.
"Brother, no, I really didn't want to come with that thing"
Xue Yao followed behind Tianyi, as if she couldn't run, and gradually slowed down.
"Brother, slow down, I can't run."
Xue Yao gasped slightly, her eyes suddenly turned, and she looked at both sides of the street.
They actually came back to this road with red lanterns.
"Look where!"
At this time, Nan Xinyu suddenly spoke, pointing to the end of the lantern.
"There, is it an inn?"
Xue Yao pointed to the end of the lantern and asked towards Tianyi.
How can I know this day, the end of the red lantern. It looks like a restaurant, because it is hidden in the mist and cannot be seen clearly.
As far as you can see, it appears to be a three-story building. Because in the corner of each floor, there is a red lantern.
Tianyi watched and wondered what kind of place it was.
Before they knew it, they had walked in front of the building. That's right. This is an inn as Xue Yao said.
It's just that the name of this inn makes people don't want to go in.
"More than half a step!"
Tianyi slowly read out the name of the inn in front of him.
"Brother, are we going in?"
Xue Yao looked at the inn in front of her and felt the urge to leave immediately. The inn in front of you is completely different from the surrounding houses. Not only are the walls so intact, but also the construction is very fine.
The wooden stakes of the eaves of the inn are carved with intricate patterns. It's just that those patterns are very mixed, there are immortals and demons, birds and beasts, and some people and demons. It's really impossible to see what the owner of this inn believes in.
