I've always trusted the Shadow 100%, but in that moment, I hesitated.

I stood on the edge of a cliff and looked down at the darkness as far as the eye could see. The darkness seemed to have no end, and I felt chills in the back of my head.

I have a very serious fear of heights, so it was really difficult for me to overcome my fear and take this step in the face of such heights.

I stood on the edge of the cliff and looked and watched, but finally I didn't dare to take a step. And just as I was standing on the edge of the cliff, struggling left and right, someone suddenly tapped me on the shoulder.

I subconsciously looked back, but saw that the black shadow that had jumped down just now appeared in front of my eyes again.

I looked at the dark shadow in front of me and still looked blank.

"You...... Didn't you just jump, why did you suddenly ......?"

"Why don't you go down yet, this crow is about to arrive."

"What do you mean?"

"There is no sun and moon in this country of crows, which means that there is no day or night here, and the only thing that can distinguish the time is this crow."

"Crows?"

"Yes, three crows are white, and this is the time when the deaf ghost returns to the cage, and seven crows are black, which is the time when the deaf ghost comes out of the cage. At this point, all the crows snort and rise into the air and begin to howl, while the deaf spirits break free from their chains and emerge from their cages in search of food. ”

"Foraging? There is almost no grass in this 100-mile radius except for sand, what can they eat? ”

"The staple food of deaf ghosts is ghosts, but there are no ghosts in the country of crows, so they have to eat each other in order to feed themselves."

"Everyone says that after death, you can be a hundred, but who knows that there are many constraints after becoming a ghost, thinking that the soul is still free from the shackles, but who knows that after becoming a ghost, it becomes more tormenting."

The shadow nodded mysteriously at me and continued, "So, if you can't leave before the seven crows, you'll be left with their rations. ”

"What will happen if they eat it?"

"Once they are eaten, they will become like them, and people will live in this country of crows without ghosts. But I have to warn you that there is no room for reincarnation after becoming deaf, and this is to never be reborn. ”

With that, the shadow jumped down again.

Although I didn't know how the shadow jumped down and up again, I knew that I couldn't hesitate any longer.

I've been here for so long, so I've had to get out of this place quickly. But as soon as I reached the edge of the cliff and stepped down, my shoulder was grabbed again.

This time it wasn't just a pat on the wrist, I just felt a pain in my shoulder.

I subconsciously looked back, only to be surprised to see the shadow behind me again.

"You...... Why are you back again? ”

The black shadow looked at me coldly and said, "If you don't show up again, I'm afraid you're going to jump off this stupid boy." ”

"What do you mean?"

"Do you remember the three paths you chose when you were at the fork in the road?"

I nodded slightly.

"The road where the soul flies away refers to this crowning country, do you remember those souls who bewitched you on the road when you were still young?"

I nodded humbly again.

"Yes, this is not shallow, my soul exists on every road at the fork in the road, in fact, this fork is not as dangerous as you think, even if you take the wrong road, you can go back, but the premise of all this is that you don't be bewitched by the soul on the fork."

When the shadow said this, I suddenly looked at him with a wary expression.

"You're saying that the two dark shadows I saw just now bewitched my souls, but this crow's song has a deaf existence, how can a deaf eater let those revenant souls exist?"

"Alas, this is indeed the exit from this crowning country, but the only way out from here is to be trapped at the fork in the road forever. The reason why they want to trick you before the crow chirps seven times is because they don't dare to linger in the dark. ”

I looked down at the pitch-black abyss beneath my feet and at the shadow standing beside me.

"I still can't trust you, you have to prove yourself."

The black shadow thought for a moment, and then directly turned into a black mist and burrowed into my black body, and in an instant, my head was once again connected with the black shadow.

At the same time, the Black Shadow's understanding of the Crow Song Country also passed into my memory in an instant.

In fact, although the first two black shadows are the souls of the three forks to bewitch me, what they described is probably correct. All the souls who strayed into this place will be bewitched by the lonely souls and wild ghosts at this fork.

In fact, the place where I exited this country of crows was in the middle of these mountains, and if I hadn't been bewitched by these ghosts, I should have been able to reach that place by now.

I didn't have time to think about it, so I took a step and ran towards the mountains. Since I was in a tireless state, I ran as fast as I could.

"Why didn't you show up sooner? If you're one step too late, I'll step out. ”

"This crow country is so big, it's not easy for me to find you, we can't have a heart-to-heart connection in this place."

"By the way, what do you mean when you say you can leave alive if you take the wrong road at the fork?"

"The rule of the three forks is that you can't turn back, but you don't say you can't quit, when you find that you have taken the wrong road, you have been going backwards and coming out, and the terrible thing is that the lonely ghosts along the way will keep harassing you and bewitching you, so that you will never recover all the way to the dark."

To say that this country of crows is so big, that there is no end to the long run, so that although I am not tired physically, my heart is very tired.

The mental distress was far worse than the physical exhaustion, and even though I ran as hard as I could, I climbed several hills, but I could only see the mountains from afar.

"What's wrong with you?"

"Why haven't you yet, I ...... it"

Before I could finish my sentence, a dark shadow suddenly emerged from my body.

At this time, there are three large cages around us, which means that there are three deaf ghosts nearby.

"I'm afraid there's not enough time for the two of us to get out of here, so we'll need to find a shelter before it gets dark."

"Shelter? There is not even a big stone in this vicinity except for loess, which is loess......"

The black shadow shook his head, he lowered his head and thought for a long time, and said in a low voice, "Follow me, I'll take you to a place." ”
