Chapter Twenty-Five: City of the Dead

Later, Lin Wan didn't know how to escape. I went back to the inn and arrived at the inn lobby, only to ask the innkeeper if he knew a strange woman on the street.

The innkeeper put down what he was doing and asked, "Strange woman?" Is the girl the one who asks if it's the person she's waiting for? ”

"yes, it's her, she doesn't look right."

Lin Wan nodded.

"When she first came to Tongguan, it was normal, but it is said that she accidentally provoked the undead, and the undead took away her three spirits, and she has become like this now...... Maybe it's someone she's really waiting for, because she's too obsessed, so she can't forget it, even if she can't remember who she's waiting for......"

"Undead?"

Lin Wan bit her lip and was robbed of three souls?

If that were the case, the woman would be a wretched man...... Maybe she's waiting for her sweetheart to come and find her?

She didn't even forget who her sweetheart was, but she didn't forget the oath she was waiting for...... "That's right, I have to remind the girl, and the girl also remembers to remind your friends." At night in Tongguan, every family did not dare to go out, because of the endless wars, there were countless resentful souls, and the entire city was built on a pile of corpses. At night, it's truly a city of the dead. It was dark and moonless, and the whole city was shrouded in endless darkness. It is rumored that if there is a child, there will be an unusually large number of 'people' in the streets and alleys, in fact, they are all dead souls, they walk aimlessly, if there is a living person at this time, they will take away the three souls of the living person, and the living person who has lost the three souls will go crazy. ”

The innkeeper described it as a horrific one.

"Really? Has anyone seen it with their own eyes? ”

Lin Wan touched her goosebumpy arm.

The innkeeper sighed, "Yes, but that was eight years ago, and no one dares to try it anymore." Eight years ago, every watchman in Tongguan was inexplicably crazy. Because of this, it caused panic in the whole city at the time, some people said that it was those who offended the watchmen, and some people said that it might be haunted. Later, a man in strange clothes appeared, and he said that he had seen many souls of the dead at night, because he had the sigil given by the master of the Dao, so those ghosts could not help him, but he saw with his own eyes a watchman who was sucked away by the souls of the dead. ”

"A man in fancy dress?"

Lin Wan frowned, feeling that this matter was a little strange, why could that man see those ghosts, but he was fine?

Is it really because of that symbol?

"Well, he's dressed a little strangely, not like a local. But later, we all wanted to ask him for a sigil, and he disappeared, maybe he left Tongguan. Hey, since then, there have been no more beaters in Tongguan, and there are no midnight snitches. Having said all that, you have to remember, girl, don't try it out of curiosity! ”

The innkeeper looked serious.

"Okay, I see, thanks."

Although she was full of doubts, she still expressed her gratitude, after all, people reminded her for her good.

For a while, she suddenly missed Qin Yu very much, why hadn't she come back yet?

The more she stayed in this place, the more uneasy she felt.

At this time, someone slapped her on the shoulder, and Lin Wan screamed in fright.

Turning her head, she saw Qin Yu behind her with a 'mistaken' expression, and she exhaled heavily, "Yu Yu...... You're scaring me to death......"

She thought it was ...... It's a ghost!

"Sorry...... It scared Wan'er......"

Qin Yu smiled awkwardly, glanced at the innkeeper on the side, and then at Li Si, "What are you talking about?" So fascinating? I came in and you didn't even notice? ”

Lin Wan told Qin Yu about the innkeeper's reminder and the encounter with the suspicious woman today, and Qin Yu frowned slightly after hearing this, as if he was pondering something.

"Wan'er, where did you meet that woman? Can you show me there? ”

"Don't you...... That woman really looked like a ghost, very scary. ”

Lin Wan shook her head violently.

"Don't be afraid, there's me."

Qin Yu touched her head with a smile, then leaned over to her ear and whispered to her, "This woman may be a clue." ”

"Clues?"

Lin Wan looked at Qin Yu suspiciously, but saw him with a gentle and harmless smile, which filled her with peace of mind for a while.
