I was taken aback by this sudden scene, so I looked at Xue Fang, Xue Fang stood motionless as if he had lost his soul, and I didn't know what was going on, I involuntarily took a step or two back, and I found that the face of the ghost bodhisattva did not follow my movements, as if it was frozen like this.

I breathed a sigh of relief, I tried to call Xue Fang, but he didn't respond, I looked at the situation around me again, and finally I didn't know what to do, whether to continue to wait or to forcibly call Xue Fang. But in the end, I didn't. Instead, I took out a mud pill that my uncle gave me, put it in my mouth, and pressed it under my tongue.

The familiar smell of earth spread in my mouth in an instant, and at the same time, the scene in front of me spread, and I only saw that the space behind the iron door was a different scene under the dark eyes, only to see that the place where it should have been a ghost bodhisattva statue was now a branch that had long since dried up. I saw a white lantern hanging from the dry branches, emitting a faint light, barely illuminating the space below.

But I saw a dark well under the tree, and at first glance it was gloomy, and I couldn't help but shiver.

Behind the tree is a very tall wall, so high that you can't see the top! It has been disappearing into the darkness, and there is another door on the wall, which is still the same iron door I saw, but one of them has been slightly opened, which seems to indicate that Xue Fang has entered from here.

I looked behind me again, and there was a bottomless darkness behind me, so I walked a little further, intending to go to the iron gate. When I got to the bottom of the tree, I suddenly heard a voice from the bottom of the well, calling out to me—Xiao Mu.

The sound was so far away that it was like my hallucination, I looked at the well, and my heart was a little hairy, but I remembered what my grandfather said to me, one person did not enter the temple, one person did not look at the well, so although my heart was strange, I did not go to look, but directly bypassed the dead tree to the iron gate, I saw through the gap that there seemed to be another passage inside, I did not know where it led, I took a step forward to go in, but before I walked up the steps, I heard the sound of bones popping from behind. This sound was so familiar to me, it was the sound of the ghost bodhisattva walking, and I looked back and saw that it was more than ten steps away from me. Instead of a statue, a living ghost bodhisattva that looked like a dried corpse appeared before my eyes, its three hands still blindfolded, but as if it had merged with its face.

I heard it mutter, "You're finally here." You're finally here. ”

I remember that the ghost bodhisattva was not dispersed by Xue Fang, how could it appear here again, but I thought that what Xue Fang dispersed at that time was just a statue-like thing, maybe what I saw now was the body of the ghost bodhisattva, and although I had heard what it was talking about, I also wanted to ask it, but my uncle once told me that I couldn't speak when I saw anything when I was shouting mud pills, otherwise the yang energy gathered behind me would be gone.

It took another step or two forward, and with each step there was a crisp snapping sound of bones, and with a creepy feeling, I saw it walk towards me and took a step or two back. But there were steps behind me and I couldn't retreat at all, so I had to stand and watch it, and it stopped after two steps and said to me, "That's a place where only the dead can go." You go in and die. ”

It suddenly said this to me, and I was startled, and I looked back behind me, but I just looked at it and couldn't speak. The feeling of suffering was very uncomfortable, but it stretched out its head as if it could see the same thing as if it could see me even if its eyes were blindfolded with its hands, and said, "The door has been opened, and someone has entered, and you are looking for this person." ”

I nodded, and said yes, and it continued, "Do you want to know where this leads to it, I can tell you that you only need to promise me a small condition, a very, very small condition. ”

I looked at it and it also seemed to know that I couldn't speak. It said, "You just have to take that stone under the tree and I'll tell you." ”

Saying that, if it hadn't pointed it out to me, I wouldn't have seen a stone under the tree, and it was sitting right under the tree, and I don't know why, but it continued, "You want to know where he went, don't you?" ”

At the same time as it said this, I suddenly heard a rapid running sound from behind the door, as if someone was running out of it, and only in the next moment I saw a man come quickly and open the iron door and come out, and when I saw this man, I myself was startled, for this man was none other than Eleven.

Eleven suddenly appeared at the door, and the Ghost Bodhisattva was startled, and it retreated again and again, as if it had seen something extremely terrible, and I saw it crawl into the well, and soon disappeared.

Eleven who came out of it obviously saw me, when he looked at me, his eyes changed several times, I saw his eyes suddenly clear from strange to finally recognize me, I heard him call me: "Xiao Mu, why are you here?" ”

His voice really reached my ears, and I felt that all the scenes in front of me suddenly changed back to the scene in reality, and I saw that the iron gate on the wall, or the dead tree, all disappeared, and there was only the three-faced ghost bodhisattva in front of me. It's just that its eyes have changed back to a hollow state, and the three candles lit on the ground have been extinguished, and Eleven is standing under the Ghost Bodhisattva, looking at me. I looked at where Xue Fang was standing, only to find that Xue Fang was gone.

Before I could recover from the sudden change, Eleven uttered something that made me even more confused: "How could I be here?" ”

I spit out the mud pills in my mouth, and asked Eleven, "I was about to ask you." How did you end up here? ”

Eleven looked at me, but there was a blank look in his eyes: "I don't remember." ”

When I heard Eleven's words, I suddenly felt a little disappointed, I thought Eleven could tell me something, but what I was given was this answer, I finally understood why he looked at me at the beginning of the eyes of strangers, because he didn't remember me, I don't know how to remember later, so I asked him, "Then how did you recognize me?" ”

He said, "I don't know, but when I saw you, I remembered this name, and it seemed that this name was very important and had to be remembered." ”

I haven't asked the question in detail for the time being. I now want to know where Xue Fang has gone, he was obviously here just now, but after just such a short period of effort, the others disappeared inexplicably. It's also weird.

Then Eleven looked at the statue in front of him, and after looking at it for a while, he suddenly asked a question, "There is such a statue here." ”

I asked him, "Have you seen it elsewhere?" ”

Eleven said, "I have seen one of the same in it." ”

I asked, "Where?" ”

Eleven replied, "I don't know, I just know that it's a deep, deep place, and I can't remember it, why can't I remember." ”

It's the same as when Uncle first came back, is it true that as long as people who have been inside come back again, their memories will disappear?

Originally, I was still worried about Xue Fang, but Xue Fang didn't have to worry about me at all, and now that Xue Fang was gone, I didn't know what the point of being here was, so I said to Eleven: "Let's go out first." ”

Who knew that when we were about to leave, Xue Fang suddenly appeared at the door, and when he saw that I was still inside, he asked me, "Where did you just go?" ”

Then he saw Eleven, but the moment he saw it, his eyes suddenly shrank into a line, and I heard him shout, "Eleven, it's you." ”

Eleven looked at him blankly and asked, "Do you know me?" ”

Xue Fang heard him answer like this, and was silent for a second, as if he understood why Eleven was like this, and said, "You are still on the wrong path. ”
