Wu Zhiyuan's heart tightened, but he didn't expect that he didn't hear the young man's movements, but the suspicious Yang Chengzong discovered his hiding. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

I saw Yang Chengzong suddenly raise a hand and put it to his ear, and whispered: "Listen, it seems that someone is coming." ”

Wu Zhiyuan was stunned when he heard this, it turned out that Yang Chengzong did not notice the young man hiding behind the black and white impermanence, what he heard was the voice outside the door.

So, Wu Zhiyuan also listened to it, and sure enough, he heard a rustling sound, which was not far away, and it was only ten steps away from the gate of the Impermanence Hall at most.

The rustling sound rang for a while, and then suddenly it turned into a "creak", which was the sound of feet stepping on the snow.

Yang Chengzong frowned, looked at Wu Zhiyuan, and asked in a low voice, "Apart from you, has anyone broken into Huayang Cave?" ”

Wu Zhiyuan sneered and replied: "I chased you in to stop you, how can I know if there is anyone following up behind me?" I don't have long eyes behind me. ”

Yang Chengzong sensed the disgust for himself revealed in Wu Zhiyuan's words, so he no longer talked to Wu Zhiyuan, his eyes were fixed on the dark palace door, the two palace doors were not inserted into the latch, as long as the people outside pushed, they would push the door open.

The sound of footsteps on the snow outside seemed to be getting closer and more real, and the sound of "squeak-squeak-" came to an abrupt halt as soon as it reached the door.

Wu Zhiyuan and Yang Chengzong looked at the temple door at the same time, but after a while, the palace door did not move, and the people outside did not push the door in.

"What's going on?" Wu Zhiyuan secretly said in his heart, "Who is the person outside?" Why didn't he push open the door and walk in, didn't he feel cold? ”

The silence in the hall was terrifying, Wu Zhiyuan and Yang Chengzong looked at each other, neither of them spoke, but they saw a trace of fear and a trace of doubt from their respective eyes.

Obviously, the footsteps just now were not auditory hallucinations, and the possibility of two people having auditory hallucinations at the same time was very small.

So what's going on out there?

The two were puzzled, when they suddenly heard a "bang", and the two wooden doors seemed to have been hit by a strong force, and opened at the same time, and the cold wind outside poured in, blowing the flames on the fire violently.

Wu Zhiyuan and Yang Chengzong kept staring at the palace gate, only to see that the sky outside had darkened at this time, but the light was still enough to see things clearly.

There was no one outside the temple gate!

Yang Chengzong stood in place and asked loudly outside the door, "Who is pretending to be a ghost outside?" ”

No one responded outside, and no one was in sight.

Yang Chengzong swallowed his saliva, emboldened himself and walked to the door of the hall step by step, he stood in the threshold, jerked his head outward, looked left and right, saw that there was no one, and retreated into the hall with a suspicious face, and closed the two wooden doors with his hand.

Yang Chengzong returned to Wu Zhiyuan and sat down by the fire without speaking.

Wu Zhiyuan didn't ask, and he didn't ask to know that Yang Chengzong didn't see a figure outside the door, and he didn't find anything abnormal, and the sudden opening of the wooden door just now may just be because of a gust of wind.

Wu Zhiyuan stretched out his hand and tried it on Sheng Wanxiang's forehead, and found that it was much better, but it was still slightly hot, and he planned to use the incense burner to hold some snow for a while, and feed Sheng Wanxiang after boiling.

At this time, Yang Chengzong stood up, turned around and picked out a stool leg from the tattered table and chair behind him, and then walked to the fire and sat down, holding the stool leg tightly in his hand.

Wu Zhiyuan understood that Yang Chengzong wanted to use this stool leg as a self-defense, and the strange footsteps outside might have frightened him.

There are no windows in the Hall of Impermanence, so you can't see the sky outside, but according to the time calculation, it should be the second watch day at this time.

Listening to the howling of the cold wind from time to time outside, Wu Zhiyuan was worried about the safety of Moon Shadow Fuxian and Zhang Zefang, if they really came to the icy and snowy land of this place of impermanence, where would they be at this time? Without a shelter like the Temple of Impermanence, would they be able to survive this cold night?

I don't know how long it took, but when Wu Zhiyuan regained his mind, he saw that Yang Chengzong was already lying on his side on the hay, and he should have fallen asleep.

Wu Zhiyuan picked up the incense burner, got up and walked to the door of the hall, to fill a little snow to boil water, he gently opened the door of the hall, and the cold wind then blew in through the crack in the door, blowing him shudder.

These two wooden doors are relatively tight, and it takes a certain amount of strength to open and close, according to common sense, the gust of wind just now has not reached the point where it can blow the wooden door open.

Wu Zhiyuan just felt strange, because he had no clue, so he didn't think much about it, he squatted down and wanted to dig up some snow and put it into the incense burner, at this moment, he saw a series of strange footprints.

There are three sets of footprints outside the door, and the footprints are not covered by snow because the snow has stopped.

Two of these three series of footprints overlap each other, and they are stepped on deeply, and the footprints are also very large, left by Wu Zhiyuan and later Yang Chengzong, and these two series of footprints extend to the place where the eye can see a few meters away. There is also a series of footprints that are completely different, this series of footprints seems to appear out of thin air, not from far and near, the most strange thing is that this series of footprints is smaller, not like the footprints of adults, but also not from seven or eight years old children, to be exact, its size is like the footprints of a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy, or, it may also be left by a woman with small feet.

Wu Zhiyuan first thought of the Moon Shadow Fuxian, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was unlikely, if the Moon Shadow Fuxian came, she would definitely open the door of the Impermanence Hall and come in to take shelter from the wind and spend the night, secondly, Wu Zhiyuan thought of the young man who was still hiding behind the black and white Impermanence Statue, but he denied this speculation, the young man was obviously still behind the statue, and he did not walk out of this temple, and it was impossible to step on the footprints here.

Thinking of this, Wu Zhiyuan sighed in his heart: "Step out of the footprints? Yes, the young man also entered this temple of impermanence, why didn't he leave his footprints outside the door, could it be that these small footprints that appeared out of thin air were his? ”

After thinking about it, Wu Zhiyuan felt that it was wrong, if these footprints belonged to the young man, where were the footprints left by the "creaking" sound of feet stepping on the snow that sounded outside the door?

After thinking for a moment, Wu Zhiyuan squatted down and carefully checked the traces of those small footprints, these footprints did suddenly appear outside the wooden door, there was no source, but they went to the right side of the temple door, he followed the footprints all the way, and found that those footprints disappeared after walking to a distance of one meter next to the door.

Appearing out of thin air and disappearing for no reason, will the people who step on these footprints not be able to fly?

Thinking of this, Wu Zhiyuan subconsciously looked up, and this look was so frightened that he almost screamed, only to see a face lying on the edge of the eaves of the Impermanence Palace, and in the dimness, that strange face was looking down at Wu Zhiyuan who was standing on the ground, and there seemed to be a strange smile on the corners of his mouth.

It's ghostly.
