The wind is gusting......

I couldn't laugh or cry when I heard this, but she wasn't wrong, and now we have to understand where this yin wind came from.

I groped around the floor, and since it was still evening, I could see the floor through the afterglow through the window, even if the lights weren't turned on.

After I found out yesterday, I paid attention to the old and new floors, and soon found that there were two half-human high floors, which were different colors from the surrounding floors, and I thought they were these two.

"Xiao Jiu, you lock the door, don't let others in, let's go down and take a look, maybe we can find something else."

Hu Xiaojiu answered, turned to leave, and after she came back, I also lifted one of the floors.

I was so tired from this floor that I was panting, and the sweat was dripping from my head.

"Let's go." Hu Xiaojiu pushed me, motioned for me to get out of the way and turned over, and with a slight movement of her hand, another longboard was easily grabbed by her.

"Let's go, shall we go down now?" Looking at Hu Xiaojiu's curious face, I just remembered that Hu Xiaojiu was a human form transformed into a spirit, if it was about strength, how could I be compared to a spirit?

This is my negligence, touched my nose, I nodded a little curtly, after Hu Xiaojiu jumped down first, I also followed closely.

When my feet landed on the solid ground, I tentatively opened my eyes and realized that there was a different scene in front of me.

I thought many times throughout the day about what would be inside this basement, maybe it would be a large prison, or maybe it could be a warehouse, or maybe it would be a killing place full of torture instruments for torturing people.

I can't help it, don't say I'm too dark, it's really the environment on this island, so people can't think about things for good.

But what I was in front of me was completely different from what I had imagined.

There was an open space in front of him, and as far as the eye could see, it was about the size of a football field, and there was an empty area, and at the other end there was a long corridor, and on the walls on both sides of the corridor hung candles, because of the large number of candles, the corridor was not dark, but bright.

"Let's go." I made a decision on the spot, no matter how much I delayed, I would have to move forward sooner or later, but unfortunately I came in a hurry and didn't make any preparations.

Now I just hope that there is no danger to our lives in this basement.

Hu Xiaojiu suddenly grabbed my hand and crossed my fingers, and then he breathed a sigh.

I looked at her side face and could feel that she was a little excited, but I didn't know what Hu Xiaojiu's reason for excitement was.

In this way, the two of us walked forward hand in hand, and as we walked through the open field to the opposite cloister, my heart skipped a beat, and I felt as if someone was watching us in the dark.

The feeling of being watched in the dark sent chills down my spine, and it made my face instantly pale, and even my legs were like they were filled with lead, and it was difficult to move in place.

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong? ”

Hu Xiaojiu quickly noticed my abnormality, and I opened my mouth and was about to say what I felt just now, when the sense of urgency of being stared at disappeared.

I breathed a sigh of relief and looked behind me with some confusion.

In the hollow, except for me and Hu Xiaojiu, I couldn't see anyone else, as if what I just felt was just an illusion.

It was also possible that it was a delusion, after all, I was in a completely unfamiliar environment, maybe I was overly nervous, I shook my head, "It's okay, let's move on." ”

Hu Xiaojiu looked a little uneasy, and kept asking me if I was okay along the way.

I could only smile wryly and keep answering, the corridor was so long and winding that it was impossible to see ahead at a glance.

But the further I went, the more candles there were, and the brighter they even made me feel a little dazzling.

Hu Xiaojiu leaned in front of a candle and sniffed it carefully, his face was a little ugly.

"These candles are made of animal fat, which is similar to the ancient mermaid tears, and they are all based on the same principle, but the candles refined from animal fat like this will be more resistant to burning."

Animal fats? I couldn't help but look back, I don't know how far we had traveled along the way, and there were hundreds of candles on both sides of us.

And each candle is extremely thick, just like a baby's arm, so many candles, how many animals do you have to kill to make this batch?

After Hu Xiaojiu noticed this, his face began to look a little unpleasant, and there was obvious hostility in his eyes.

I'm sure that if it weren't for the fact that we don't have any other lighting tools except these candles now, Hu Xiaojiu would have been unceremonious and trampled on all those candles.

I patted her on the shoulder as a reassurance, after all, we were in an enemy camp and we had to be careful in everything we did.

As I walked, I suddenly noticed something strange.

When I came down, I couldn't feel the coldness anymore, as if what I felt on it was just an illusion, and I couldn't stop looking back to see if anyone was following us behind me.

"Li Sheng, I see the exit!"

Hu Xiaojiu shouted in surprise, which successfully turned my attention back, and I saw that the vision in front of the corridor was broadened, and after the two of us quickened our pace, everything in front of us suddenly became clear.

In front of him was a square open space, which looked like the main room, and in the middle was a table like an altar, on which were stacked with books, and even a half-painted painting.

As for the surrounding walls, which were filled with candles, only directly behind the altar was a huge bookshelf full of books.

But there was a cabinet of books that had all fallen to the floor.

"This is the study?" Hu Xiaojiu said this guess with some disbelief, and I nodded noncommittally.

To be honest, I thought the same as Hu Xiaojiu, most of the books on this bookshelf are some folk rumors, such as the ghost market of Miaojiang, or the cultivation of witches.

Obviously, the owner who created this study should be very interested in these folk rumors, and after looking at the strange anecdotes mixed in it, I let go of Hu Xiaojiu's hand and walked forward slowly.

Rounding the other side of the altar, I finally got to see the painting on the table.

This is a picture of Danqing, on which a beautiful woman is depicted.

The eyebrows and eyes are exquisite, the skin is snow-white, and the person who paints should have a good workmanship, even the hair is meticulously depicted, which is quite lifelike.

I suddenly thought of the painted skin in the strange Tales of Liaozhai, and an idea flashed through my mind, and I stretched out my hand and touched the painting scroll, fortunately, it was an ordinary material, not the human skin mentioned in it.

It's just that in this place, there is another pair of danqing like this, does it mean that this basement has actually been inhabited all along?

Thinking of the missing leader of the Suzaku Gang, I couldn't help but glance at the painting on the scroll again, and vaguely seemed to see the woman on the painting, the corners of her mouth turned upward, full of mocking arcs.
