Chapter 45: The Wooden Door on the Ground

"The three of them followed."

Shi Yuan noticed the three white figures chasing from behind, and whispered to Tu Xue'er.

Tu Xue'er nodded and didn't say anything.

The two walked along the corridor to the right for a while, and Shi Yuan sensed that the abnormal fluctuations had become more obvious, so he looked at the doors on both sides of the corridor vigilantly.

It is unknown what the building was originally used for, but as it stands, it is almost empty.

There are no office desks, chairs, furniture, or electrical appliances. And no one.

It was an empty, pitch-black building.

"Brother Shiyuan," Tu Xue'er finally couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Why did you come here?" This building, it looks so scary, there are probably a lot of dangerous things in it. ”

"I know I'm dying," Shi Yuan smiled bitterly and said, "But if I don't do it now, it will be even worse." ”

"What could be worse than death?"

Tu Xue'er turned her head to look at Shi Yuan with some puzzlement.

Shi Yuan and Tu Xue'er were holding flashlights in their hands at the moment, so Tu Xue'er was able to see Shi Yuan's face through the light.

She saw Shi Yuan's wry smile, saw the decisiveness in his eyes, and didn't want to tell the secret for the time being.

Tu Xue'er pursed her lips and did not continue to ask.

"Cher, if I notice the presence of a ghost, I'll alert you immediately. If my reminder is not timely enough, or if a ghost appears out of thin air, and you are injured, drink that mineral water immediately. ”

Shi Yuan admonished.

"Well, okay, Brother Shiyuan."

Tu Xue'er responded obediently.

All the way to the end of the corridor, Shi Yuan didn't find the stairs going up. There is an elevator in the hall, but that kind of thing is still forbidden in the mission of the bright world, let alone in the dark world.

What they're doing now isn't one of those tasks with a solution, and there's no need to go to the elevator, because there's no clue there anyway.

Although he didn't find the stairs going up, it wasn't for nothing, because Shi Yuan found that there were two closed wooden doors on the ground, similar to the door outside the cellar on the west side of the village that he used to turn into the dark world.

There are two metal handles on the wooden door and there is no lock.

Shi Yuan walked to the wooden door, squatted down, and observed carefully.

"Brother Shi Yuan!"

Seeing that Shi Yuan seemed to be about to reach over and open the wooden door, Tu Xue'er suddenly became nervous.

"It's okay, don't worry."

Shi Yuan had already explored the situation below, and there was no black humanoid inside.

Of course, he also knew in his heart that even if he didn't perceive the black human form, he couldn't take it lightly. Ghosts can change shapes, and they may take the form of humans or other forms, such as smoke. Moreover, while his perception has been reliable so far, that doesn't mean it's reliable at all times.

The Dark World is like a fraudster, ruthlessly deceiving him. Shi Yuan will not easily believe in any things and phenomena here.

The wooden door was unlocked, so Shi Yuan opened it and shone the flashlight inside.

There was nothing but the staircase going down, and inside it seemed to be just an ordinary empty room.

If you look down from the wooden door, you won't be able to see the whole inside. The room seemed to be huge.

The moment he opened the wooden door, Shi Yuan felt a further change in the abnormal fluctuations.

If you're lucky, you might be able to find the balance stone inside.

As for what will happen after finding it, Shi Yuan doesn't want to think about it.

"You...... What are you doing? ”

Feng Chunqing and the three of them also came to Shi Yuan's side and looked at him in surprise.

"Let's go down and have a look."

After Shi Yuan finished speaking coldly, he walked down the stairs first.

Ding Xizhu and the three of them looked at each other, and couldn't help but think in their hearts, this Shi Yuan is too bold, right? Dare to go anywhere!

Feng Chunqing's expression changed, and he gave the other two a look, which means that now it can be determined that Shi Yuan has special abilities, and it seems that he can indeed sense the appearance of ghosts, otherwise he would not be able to act rashly.

Ding Xizhu and Zhong Huang nodded in understanding, and then stood next to the wooden door and looked in.

All they saw was a moving flashlight beam.

"Cher, come down."

Shi Yuan's voice suddenly came from inside.

Tu Xue'er answered and walked down the stairs.

Feng Chunqing gritted his teeth and walked down.

Shi Yuan ignored them and walked towards the depths of the room. He saw that under the light of the flashlight, something seemed to be flashing in the innermost corner.

Is it metal? Or is it a gemstone? Could a balance stone be a gemstone?

Shi Yuan thought to himself.

He walked towards the glittering things. As the distance narrowed, Shi Yuan's brows became tighter and tighter.

It wasn't a metal at all, not a gemstone, but a ......

"It's unlucky."

Ding Xizhu, who followed closely, couldn't help but take a sip and said.

Suddenly, there was a loud bang, and the wooden door closed by itself.

"Oops! The door is closed! We're stuck inside! Ding Xizhu couldn't help but shout, "Shi Yuan, look at the good things you have done!" ”

"Did I let you in?"

Shi Yuan didn't even look at Ding Xizhu, and continued to look at those golden things.

Ding Xizhu wanted to say something, but was pulled by Feng Chunqing.

"Xizhu, don't talk nonsense, although Shi Yuan is young, his ability is not small. If we want to survive, we have to rely on him, and you have to respect him. ”

Feng Chunqing glanced at him as he spoke, Ding Xizhu was stunned and stopped talking.

Looking at those golden things, Shi Yuan thought thoughtfully. After a moment of contemplation, he picked up one of them, unfolded it, and examined the inside.

It was a paper stack of gold ingots, "money" for the dead.

When unfolded, the gold ingots become a piece of paper, with gold on one side and plain and coarse white on the other.

On the white side, there is a word written on it.

"You".

Judging from the fake mission for the first time, in this dark world, there is no so-called way to crack it, so naturally there is no clue. The previous missions in the Ming World were just misleading.

But what if that fake task is misleading?

Could it be that the reason why he was chased and killed by the ghosts was because he didn't find the real way, and finally triggered the death trap? What you are analyzing is not true?

A strong contradiction appeared in Shi Yuan's heart again.

He continued to unfold the gold ingots, looking for more text, to see if there were any clues in it.

However, his face was becoming more and more gloomy.

Not because there were no words after the gold ingots were unfolded, but because those words were connected into a sentence.

"There's no way you're going to find a clue here."

Shi Yuan threw the last piece of paper on the ground fiercely, and a nameless fire rose from the bottom of his heart.

It was as if he heard a merciless mockery from a voice.
