Chapter 480: Entering the Forbidden Land by Mistake
In the darkness of the night, one after the other, two fast horses galloped with the people on their backs as fast as they could. I don't know how long I ran, the two horses finally came to a bustling market with the people on their backs, the people in this market seemed to have no concept of time at all, and at this hour they all came out, and the streets were full of people, people rushing to the market, selling goods, big girls, little daughters-in-law, and a lot of flowers, even though it was now close to the second half of the night.
I looked up at the sky, and the full moon was still hanging in the sky, but it was starting to fade a little. At this time, it is already the second half of the night, and normal people should have fallen asleep at this time, waiting for the dawn to start another day's work, and it is still brightly lit, people come and go, and being in it gives people an obvious sense of unreality.
I reined in the horse rope, trying to make it turn around and walk out, my intuition told me that this is an ominous place, the sooner you should get away, the better, this place is not suitable to stay, these people here, each of them is strange, and when the horse took me to move forward in it, I suddenly found that this town is actually full of snow-white plaster sculptures, people, there are animals, but without exception, every animal and person is exactly the same as the proportion of real people, according to the "Valley of Fear" effect, the more I see such a realistic thing, The more it gives people a sense of weirdness and makes people feel frightened.
I wanted to leave, but I couldn't.
The horses were tired of running, and finally saw a place to stay, and slowly slowed down their steps, no matter how much they urged, they were reluctant to lift their feet. I scolded twice, but the horse was unmoved, after running all night, I was already a little tired, and I didn't have the energy to spend any more time with this horse, and in front of me, it was already a prosperous town, maybe there was a comfortable hotel to let us rest for a night, and after a while, I decided to ask Bi An and Zhu Liu's opinions.
I looked at them and asked, "Do you want to leave, or do you want to rest here for the night?" Bi An looked at me and Zhu Liu who were tired, frowned and thought for a while, and finally made a decision: "It's better to find a hotel here and rest for one night." As he spoke, he thought for a moment and added, "Just be careful." ”
He had made a decision, and I could not refute it, and besides, I was indeed very tired, and my bones were about to fall apart after a night of riding on the horse.
I couldn't help but sigh, rolled over and got off the horse, soothed the horse, tied it aside, and let it eat the grass by the roadside. Bi An glanced at me, followed my example, tied the horse that carried him and Zhu Liu all the way to the side, then clapped his hands with satisfaction, and said to me, "Let's go." ”
The horses are no longer willing to go, and it seems that right and wrong have to settle here. I nodded, and dragged Zhu Liu, who was pale by the horse, towards the market. When Bi An saw us move, he followed behind us and carefully protected us.
The more I walked inside, the more strange I became, why didn't the people here go to sleep at night? And I've been walking here for so long, and I suddenly realize that although it looks lively, it's actually quite quiet, and despite the crowds, it feels completely different from the bazaar I've ever seen. I quietly listened to the footsteps of myself and Bi'an Zhuliu, and couldn't help but sigh in my heart: It's still *quiet, *quiet.
I carefully looked at the people walking through the bazaar, and suddenly I noticed something unusual: the people here, whether they were men, women, or children, their faces looked unusually pale, and their lips were very red, as if they were a drop of blood on the snow, and they looked very strange, like the kind of paper figures tied in grass, and it was like the plaster statues I saw everywhere when I came in, and it made people feel furious at first sight.
Moreover, I also found a problem, since Bi'an Zhuliu and I walked into this town, from time to time I feel as if someone is looking at us, not the kind of blatant looking, but sneaky, dormant, like a poisonous snake, secretly hiding behind you, just waiting for you to be defenseless, pounce up, bite your neck, this gaze on us, gave me such a feeling.
I walked slowly, feeling small beads of sweat flowing out of my neck, and then slowly slid into my back, itchy, giving me an extremely uncomfortable feeling, I turned my head to look at Bi An, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "Let's go." Don't stay here anymore. "I always felt uncomfortable here, and I would be crazy if I stayed here.
Although Bi An's face is not different from usual, and his pace is also leisurely, but with my understanding of him, I can see that he is actually a little nervous, and there is still some difference from his normal appearance, he quietly turned his head to look at me, pursed his lips, and then turned his head away, and spit out a sentence lightly: "It's too late." ”
"What?" I exclaimed, and then I felt the eyes that were watching me grow more enthusiastic, and I covered my mouth uncomfortably, and asked in a low voice, "What do you mean by that?" ”
"The horse is dead." Bi An also lowered his voice and said, but his eyes didn't look at me at all, but at the road ahead, I knew that he didn't want to startle the snake.
But suddenly hearing him say this, I couldn't help but exclaim, and was about to turn my head to look behind, when I felt Bi An's elbow as if unintentionally bumped me, and then his low voice came: "Don't look back, it will alarm them, pretend that you don't know anything, and go forward." ”
"What the hell are they?" I took a deep breath and tried to keep myself calm, but I was still unusually nervous, who were these people? No! I don't know if they are human or not. What kind of place did we break into, my mood became depressed, why was there no good thing all the time? Just out of the tiger's mouth, and into the wolf's den, I really don't know if I can get out of this world alive.
Thinking of those two horses, I felt a little heartache, these two horses carried the three of us for so far, who knew but there was no good ending, as soon as they arrived here, they were killed, I knew that when they were unwilling to go, I would not have accommodated them, I had to pull them away, and I could save two lives, now it is really a pity.
As I walked, I thought to myself, that the devil had sent the gods, and that I suddenly wanted to see what the two horses looked like, so I really turned my head.
As soon as I turned my head and saw that scene, I regretted it, the death of those two horses was so weird.
I looked at the two horses silently, my eyes unblinking. Actually, it wasn't particularly bloody, there was no blood as I imagined, or tooth marks or anything like that, but it made me feel cold the moment I saw it. Because in such a short time, the two horses turned into two plaster sculptures, snow-white and stiff, exactly like they looked like they were at the same time, as if they could neigh in the next second, and then gallop with their hooves raised. If I hadn't known about the weirdness here, I would have even mistaken it for a lifelike sculpture made of the two horses, but I knew that these were really the two horses.
Just when I was looking at this scene in disbelief, I suddenly met a look, it was a passer-by in the bazaar, his eyes looked at me naked, revealing a trace of greed, but not at all concealed, I knew that this look was following me, peeking at my eyes all the way, and, more than one, I felt more and more eyes focused on me, the blood of the body rushed to the top of the head, and then, while these people had not yet reacted. I yelled, "Run!" ”
As soon as my words fell, Bi An rushed forward, and Zhu Liu also directly turned back into his true body, and quickly rushed to the front of us, I followed closely behind the two of them, feeling more and more people gather around us and surround us.
In a panic, Zhu Liu led a few of us into a small alley, and I quickened my pace and shook off the people who were chasing us. I quickly followed Zhu Liu, and when I was finally glad that I was about to escape, Zhu Liu suddenly stopped, and wailed in despair.
I looked up, and saw that Zhu Liu had actually led us into a dead end, surrounded by closed gates, and behind them were pursuers. For a moment, I was also stunned, and suddenly I remembered the two horses that I had just seen that had turned into plaster statues, and I felt that my legs were suddenly weak, and I couldn't help but close my eyes as I listened to the noise outside getting closer and closer.
At this moment, suddenly there was a "creaking" sound from my ears, and I couldn't help but open my eyes, and I looked at it in horror, only to see that a door in the alley facing me suddenly opened, and from the outside, it was pitch black inside, and I couldn't see what kind of scene it was. Everything here gave me a very eerie feeling, maybe it was a trap, I stood quietly and thought to myself.
Suddenly, I noticed a hint of abnormality, and those people were about to catch up! Before my mind could think, my body reacted before I could. By the time I came to my senses, I was already in the house, standing next to Bi An and Zhu Liu, and the three of us were clinging to the door, listening to the sound of the pursuers gradually moving away, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
And at this moment, I suddenly saw that in the darkness, a pair of green eyes were quietly looking at me, my scalp tightened suddenly, I trembled in my voice, and whispered to Bi An and Zhu Liu, who were overjoyed: "Something is watching us." ”
As I said that, I saw that the thing was slowly approaching us.
......
And in a luxurious mansion, watching the full moon in the sky gradually fade, until it completely disappeared, a trace of red light flashed in the eyes of Chongyong, like blood, the red light became thicker and thicker, and the area became larger and larger, and under the erosion of this blood, Chongyong seemed to become extremely painful, his body began to tremble, holding his head in his hands, and said coldly: "You just die, with me, your conspiracy will not succeed." ”
And just after he said this, he said in a different tone: "Really? But I'm going to be back in my body soon? As soon as he finished speaking, he slammed himself fiercely, and said in a cold tone: "This is my body, you are just an intruder." ”
Just as he finished saying this, another voice laughed heartily: "Really? ”
This eerie scene lasted for a long time.
Until the red completely covered his entire eyeball, only a bright red patch was visible, and then slowly faded and disappeared into the bottom of his eyes. And at this time, Chong Yongcai let out a happy sound*, and then looked at the path in front of him as if talking to himself, and said lightly: "I didn't expect you to let them go on the night of the full moon, but it doesn't matter, you only have one day a month to come out, and when I slowly cultivate, I can completely suppress you." ”
After speaking, no one answered him, but he raised his head proudly and laughed, and after a long time, he seemed to be whispering again: "Liu Wuying, wait for me, we will meet soon." ”
