Chapter Twenty-Four: Blood Red

Then he suddenly turned his head to look at me, and said with a serious face, "Zhanhao, this time you can only rely on yourself, I can only help drag those things here at most, don't say anything now, just listen to me." ”

As she spoke, she pulled out what looked like jade and shoved it into my hand.

"Listen, now you close your eyes immediately, no matter what you hear, you must not open them, and then walk along the front until you feel that this piece of jade is getting hot, you can open your eyes, and then you follow the road to the east, back forward, remember, no matter what you hear in this process, you must not make a sound, let alone look back!"

"Until the jade in your hand becomes cold, you immediately throw him away, throw it as far as possible, and then you find a cave nearby, and then go in, and find a black dagger inside, even if you die, you have to find a way to pull the dagger out, and then quickly leave the village!"

Before I could speak, I heard nearby footsteps approaching, and An Ran's face changed, "Close your eyes!" ”

I didn't even have time to react, I reflexively closed my eyes tightly, and then the footsteps around me suddenly became messy, as if I was in a crowd, mixed with a fierce fight.

Although my eyes were closed, I could guess what was happening around me and worry about Enron's situation, but at this time I had no choice but to grit my teeth and move forward.

I couldn't see the road, I could only feel the way forward, and I don't know how long it took, but the sound of the fight behind me gradually became quieter, and I was sure that I had walked some distance.

Finally I touched something that looked like a stone wall, the stone wall was slimy, and I didn't know what was covered on it, and then I groped all the way, but suddenly stopped!

I seemed to feel the shoulder of a "person", and although my eyes were closed, I could feel that "person" was also looking at me, and even felt the cool air blowing from it.

I tried my best to restrain my emotions, to keep myself calm, and to let me close my eyes, I had her own reason, and after a little thought, I could only pretend that I didn't know anything, and then move on.

Fortunately, that "person" did not get entangled.

Then I felt like I was on the street, and there was a sound of stepping on the bluestone slab under my feet, and I kept moving forward, and I don't know how long it took, and suddenly I felt that the piece of jade I was holding in my hand began to get hot.

Thinking of An Ran's words, I slowly opened my eyes, and at that moment, the hairs on my body suddenly stood up, and I was so frightened that I almost screamed!

I was standing on a large road in the village, next to two rows of old buildings, and at the entrance of these buildings, there were two rows of densely packed "people" dressed in white and wearing long hair, these "people" hung their heads, and their long hair was covered in front of them, and their faces could not be seen clearly.

A gust of wind blew, and they seemed to sense something, and suddenly they slowly lifted their heads, and a pair of eyes fell on me through the gaps in their hair.

At this moment, I was so frightened that I almost lost my soul, and after reacting, I quickly turned my back, gritted my teeth and forced myself to keep my composure, and then walked backwards along an old street to the east.

Strange to say, when I walked backwards, when I passed by the doorways again, I found that the "people" who were still standing on both sides of the door had disappeared.

But I believe they are still standing there, but I can't see them when I walk in this way, and I suddenly remembered that the other side said at the beginning, if you can't see the ghost, if you can't see it, it can't see you, and I think it's about the same as letting me turn my back to it.

After a few minutes, nothing special happened, and my nervous heart was relieved a little, just hoping that the piece of jade in my hand would become cold soon.

Of course, I am worried about An Ran's situation, I know that she must be in danger now, but I have no choice but to grit my teeth and do my own thing well, I am self-aware, even if I rush back now, I can't help her, the best way is not to mess with her.

"Little brother, inquire, where is the old house of the Liu family?"

At this time, a man's voice suddenly came from behind me, and I was relieved to hear the voice of a living person at such a time.

But just as he was about to speak, before the words could be spoken, his scalp exploded instantly!

I suddenly remembered that An Ran had warned me that in this process, no matter what I heard, I must not speak, let alone turn back!

Just now, because the nerve collapsed too tightly, I ignored some very simple things.

This is an uninhabited village, where do the living people come from?

"Little brother, please tell me."

The voice behind me sounded again, the same tone and tone as a normal person, and the voice seemed to be close to the back of my head.

I didn't speak, gritted my teeth and took a few steps to continue, only to find that the place I passed was empty, and there were no "people" at all.

Hey!

The voice suddenly laughed where I had just stood, as if with a plot of unsuccessful banter and self-deprecation.

And I got goosebumps all over the ground, and if I had just opened my mouth to speak, or turned my head, I really didn't know what would have happened.

Then I continued to move backwards, and there were several similar incidents in which I was tempted to speak or turn back in various ways.

I even imitated Enron's voice once, shouting for help in the back, but I gritted my teeth and ignored it.

Maybe those things will gradually lose interest when they see that I don't take the bait, and I feel that if I continue like this, I will have to leave the village.

An Ran asked me to find a cave, I thought that since it was a cave, it would definitely not be possible to appear in the village, and I might be close to my destination when I walked out of the village.

So I quickened my pace a little, trying to get out of here as soon as possible, but I just walked, and after another ten minutes, I found that I still hadn't left the village.

Something is wrong!

I frowned and thought to myself, and when I caught a glimpse of a worn lantern hanging on the beam in front of me on the left, I suddenly chuckled in my heart!

I remember walking through this place!

Could it be that it's just a coincidence?

Thinking like this, a terrifying thought suddenly popped up in my heart, and a layer of fine beads of sweat instantly welled up on my forehead, and I couldn't help but speed up my pace.

After a few minutes, I suddenly felt a strong sense of frustration and powerlessness, and the feeling of helplessness and panic was indescribable.

Because I saw the lantern on the beam in front of me on the left again, I just paid an extra eye to it, and I observed a lot of details besides the lantern.

Now I can be sure that I'm back where I was.

Ghost hits the wall!

I'm finally sure I've come across this legendary phenomenon.

I've been through so much, I wouldn't have been so nervous if I had been normal, but now, I feel like my heart is about to jump out of my throat.

What am I going to do? Enron doesn't know what's going on, and I don't have any other way than to keep walking backwards with my back to my back, so can it just keep going on in an infinite loop?

In addition to being trapped to death, I am more worried about safety, and if I complete the task one minute earlier, I can get her out of danger one minute earlier.

"Don't make a sound, if you want to live, do what I say!"

At this time, a man's voice suddenly came from behind me, and I heard it familiarly, but I couldn't remember where I heard it for a while.

And this voice was particularly intimidating, and I had an inexplicable sense of trust.

"Move half a step to the left rear, one step to the right rear, alternate twelve times, retreat to a house, put the shoes on your left and right feet backwards, and continue to walk the way you just did!"

After the voice finished speaking, a gust of wind suddenly blew, and I didn't listen to him.

I stood there and thought for a moment, and then decided to take a risk and try it the way he said, because now I really can't find a better way, I can't keep it like this, and let a dead horse be a live horse doctor!

And the method he said didn't make me turn back, I still walked with my back to each other, but in a different way.

I took a half-step towards the left and didn't notice anything unusual, and then I took another step towards the right, and at this time, I clearly felt the effect, because I saw that the distance from the lantern was noticeably farther away.

So I sped up, and when I was exactly twelve times, I suddenly felt something leaning against my back, and after staggering backwards, the whole person fell backwards into a room.

The room was not very large, and then a little light came in through the window, and I could see that it was a round room, and a thick layer of white powder had accumulated on the ground, and I don't know what it was, but it smelled like glutinous rice.

However, I didn't bother to study the white powder at this time, so I quickly leaned down and exchanged my two shoes.

When I was wearing the left shoe, I accidentally caught a glimpse of a triangle-like notch at the heel of the shoe, which looked a little familiar, and after thinking about it, I was immediately startled!

I suddenly remembered that when I first arrived at the entrance of the village, the set of footprints I saw next to the stone monument also had a notch in the heel that resembled a triangle.

Could it be that the person who entered the village in advance was myself?

I can't help but think of the person who has been pretending to be me, could it be that he is here too?

"Change your shoes and come out!"

At this time, the man's voice just now came from outside the door, and at this time, I also reacted, why was the voice so familiar when I heard it just now, it turned out to be my own voice at all!

My body began to tremble, and I might not be so scared if there was a bloody goblin standing in the doorway, but knowing that it was me standing in the doorway, the fear that came from the bottom of my heart could not be expressed.

If it weren't for Enron's situation at this time, I would have rushed out immediately to take a good look at what that "me" was.

I took a deep breath and suppressed all the chaotic thoughts in my head, now is not the time to think about this, the first priority is to find the cave as soon as possible, so that An Ran can get out of danger as soon as possible!

I walked out of the room with my back to the door, and I continued to walk in the direction I had just done, and the ghost hit the wall and finally broke, and within two minutes I was out of the village.

After walking through a meadow, I suddenly felt the jade in my hand instantly chill, as if I was holding an ice cube.

When I looked down, I found that the jade pendant had turned blood-red, and I hurriedly threw it out with all my strength, and when I turned my head, I saw a cave not far away!
