The misty mist, the lush mountain forest, a simple thatched house, and a two-person tall stone statue of a spirit fox look like a tomb in this silent night.

Bai Lu stood there, her eyes full of fear and consternation.

She didn't like it, but she didn't know why she was back.

"Can you hear me? Can you really hear me? ”

"Don't trust him, don't believe him!"

"Come and save me."

"Come and save me."

......

A woman's miserable cry for help kept ringing out, making people shudder.

In the next moment, Bai Lu's body shook, as if he had been electrocuted.

In her sight, an eye was drilled out of one of the holes in the fox's scarred face.

Human eyes!

The eyes were yellow and bloodshot, and they kept turning, sweeping around one by one until they reached Bai Lu.

It stared at Zhao Anlin, and bright blood and tears welled up in its eyes.

"Help me! Help me! ”

The tears of blood fell to the ground one by one, making a ticking sound.

For a moment, Bai Lu had a feeling of suffocation as if her head was stuck in the mire.

"Can't you see or hear?"

At this time, Bai Lu remembered that there were other people around.

She turned her head blankly, only to find that those fellow sects, including Deputy Sect Master Li Yulin, were all kneeling there, offering incense to the statue of the weeping spirit fox.

They looked blank, like statues, and they didn't look like people anymore.

A gust of mountain wind blew, and the shadows of the surrounding trees swayed, and in Bai Lu's eyes, the ancestral land in this sect was like a tomb buried with unjust souls, and it was terrifying.

Frightened, she fled and soon plunged into a wood.

It was dark in the woods, and the occasional sound of some large birds flapping their wings was even more terrifying.

Ahead, there was finally a little light.

Bai Lu hurried over non-stop, and then froze there.

She finds herself back!

returned to the gloomy ancestral land, and what was even more terrifying was that those fellow disciples who had incensed the spirit fox statue before all looked at her.

That look was like sending her to the end......

Bai Lu was so frightened that she turned around and ran.

Darkness, boundless darkness.

The darkness turned into a coat called dread, enveloping her all over.

Bai Lu only felt that she was in a mire dream, very uncomfortable, almost unable to breathe, but unable to wake up.

At this time, a little light appeared again in this dark wood.

She followed the glimmer of light, but her heart was filled with fear.

She was afraid to see those fellow disciples again, holding incense in their ancestral land, looking at herself like a dead man.

Bai Lu finally ran over with the courage to do so.

For in the woods behind her, a sound similar to a baby's cry sounded, and she did not know what it was, but she felt great fear.

As a result, she only heard a commotion, and she found herself standing in front of the inner lake at the gate of the sect.

At night, in the green water of the lake, red, white, black, and variegated carp churned, blending into a flowing color, like the most gorgeous color ink in the painter's brush.

And the Yunxue Sect inside the mountain gate was quiet, there was no fire at all, and in Bai Lu's eyes, it was like a huge group of tombs.

Looking at these carp, Bai Lu felt uneasy and wanted to leave.

She is going to find Brother Ji and her sister.

This Cloud Snow Sect is really too evil!

As a result, as soon as she took a step, suddenly a hand reached out of the water and dragged her down.

The tumbling water flooded her head, and she choked on several mouthfuls of water.

There was a slippery touch around his body, and Bai Lu turned her body in a panic, finding that the hand that pulled her was gone, and there were carps all around.

These carps were not afraid of people at all, and when they saw her, they all rushed over.

For a moment, Bai Lu even felt that those fish eyes were filled with a cold aura.

There were these strange fish floating in the water, and she struggled to swim back to shore, but found that she couldn't.

Being in the water, she could only watch as she was pushed into the depths of the lake by the carp.

Suddenly, Bai Lu knew where they were taking her.

Spring, spring in the lake!

It is said that this inner lake of the Yunxue Sect is connected to a spring.

In the green water, the spring is like a ghost's mouth, or empty eyes, which makes people feel cold all over the body.

"The Legend of the Fairy Tree"

Bai Lu struggled, but to no avail, and was soon pushed into the spring.

After struggling in the water for so long, she didn't feel depressed, she just felt that she had been going down diagonally.

In this pitch-black spring, the spring water is surging darkly, seemingly weak, but in fact, it has been carrying her down.

At first, the carp was still against her body, and when it came to the back, even the carp was gone.

It was dark in her eyes, and she touched her neck in the lake and found that a crack had been opened, and she couldn't help but let out a cold sweat.

She always felt like she had become a fish, and she couldn't help herself in the water.

In the Momo Lake, a little light appeared in front of me, and it was a large fish with a faint green glow.

This fish is about half a human length, and it looks like a carp, which looks very old, which makes people happy.

Eventually, the seemingly irreversible flow of water stopped, and Bai Lu found herself in a cloister.

This cloister is like a deep house in the compound, with wooden doors and windows and stone pillars, which for some reason sank into this water.

The broken window paper was soaked in the water, and the glowing fish roamed the room and the cloister.

Bai Lu stood there nervously, and suddenly heard the sound of doors and windows shaking behind her.

She only felt a great sense of fear rush over her, and without any hesitation, she ran forward.

As she ran forward, she glanced out of the corner of her eye at the room by the cloister, and always felt that those broken windows hid a pair of sinister eyes.

Help, huh......

This cloister is not in a straight line, but in a certain arc.

Bai Lu was very scared, kept running, kept running, she always felt that the opening on her neck was getting bigger and bigger.

At the end of the cloister, there is a wall.

A blue brick wall, with green moss growing on it, looks like the face of a skin patient from a distance, which is very disgusting.

When she looked back, she saw only a few large, glowing fish swimming in the corridor, and nothing chasing them.

The panicked fear behind me just now disappeared, as if it had never appeared.

It's just that at this time, Bai Lu no longer has the courage to go back.

She looked at the broken yellow rune paper pasted on the doors and windows of the cloister, and knew that there was probably a great danger in it.

She began to tap lightly against the brick wall to see if she could get past it.

Her anxious state of mind made her spit out a series of bubbles, and what scared Bai Lu was that there were more bubbles coming out of the mouth on her neck than her mouth.

She had a sense of loss, that is, whether she was human or not.

But now she couldn't do so much, because the doors and windows behind her suddenly moved again, bringing up a string of blisters, as if something was about to come out.

Bai Lu scanned the wall in a panic, looking for an exit.

She swept the moss away with her hands, and she really found a red brick mixed in the green brick.

So she hurriedly touched the protruding red brick with her hand, and found that the red brick was easily pulled out.

Seeing this, Bai Lu hurriedly went to fetch the bricks next to him, and found that after the red bricks were gone, the green bricks next to him were also quite loose, and it was not difficult to remove them.

Inexplicably ran here to move bricks, Bai Lu only felt that it was too difficult.

At this moment, she suddenly stopped, because at this moment, she saw something through the gap in the wall.

A man was standing there with his back to her.

The man was dressed in a white robe, and on the white robe was an ink-colored lotus flower, which looked like a landscape painting splashed with ink.

Such a back looks very elegant, but in Bai Lu's eyes, it is ghostly.

Just a back made her tremble.

She had a gut feeling that this man was a ghost.

Yes, who can be behind the walls in this water?

In the middle of the lake, the man turned around and stepped aside.

In the dim waters, she only felt that the man's cheeks were so dilapidated that she couldn't really see it.

Immediately after, with the sound of rattling chains, the "white-clothed demon" dragged out a bloody person from a mass of aquatic plants next to him.

At this moment, Bai Lu's whole body stiffened, and it was difficult to breathe.

Because she saw the face of the man who had been dragged out.

Ji Que's brother?

No! No!

The thickest reliance in his heart collapsed in an instant, and Bai Lu only felt as if he was frozen, and his whole body was cold and piercing.

As if aware of her presence, the white-clothed demon turned his head, and a terrifying smile appeared on the distorted face of the mold lake in the waters.

Bai Lu was so frightened that she stepped back, realizing that she had hit something.

Tick tock......

The bright red liquid smashed down on her through the water, and she looked up blankly to find that it was a huge, rotten spirit fox that exposed white bones, dripping blood.

As soon as the spirit fox lowered its head, countless blood-red eyes stretched out the skin of his cheeks, densely packed.

"Help me!"

"Help me!"

"Help me!"

......

The most terrifying thing is not the dense bloodshot eyes and those miserable cries for help on the fox's face, but the face of an older sister on the face of this huge spirit fox......

In an almost suffocating moment, Bai Lu reluctantly opened his eyes and gasped violently.

She found herself lying in her room, and the bamboo outside the window was swaying in the wind.

But she didn't have the ease of waking up from a nightmare.

She clutched her chest, covered in cold sweat and terrified.

She felt like it had found her.

Because the dream just now was so real, she could even recall every detail in it clearly.

Immediately, she thought of Ji Que, who was dragged away by the white-clothed demon in the dream just now, and stood up.

No, I have to tell Brother Ji Que.

At least, he can't have an accident.

......

Tonight was supposed to be on duty in the season, but he had to endure the pain of skipping shifts, going to the night attack, phew, going to meet with the female Fengning Hongyu.

As a result, he was just about to set off, but he saw Bai Lu standing there cautiously.

In the night, Xiao Nizi's hair was messy, and her eyes were terrified, as if she had seen a ghost.

"Second Miss, why are you here?"

"Brother-in-law."

Hearing this title, Ji Que knew that the other party's state was definitely not good.

Ji Que hurriedly asked the other party to come over.

When the porter was on duty, there was no special room for rest, only a table and chair were placed in the cloister at the door for rest.

Ji Que hurriedly poured a cup of tea for the other party and asked, "Second Miss, has something happened?" ”

It wasn't until he saw clearly the face under Ji Que's lamp that made people feel like a spring breeze, Bai Lu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Brother Ji, if I say that the spirit fox statue in the ancestral land can speak, do you believe it?" ”

Ji Que suddenly became energetic and said, "I believe it." What does it say to you? ”

was not regarded as a madman by Ji Que, Bai Lu was surprised, but quickly figured it out.

Brother Ji Que wants to comfort himself, I'm afraid that she will treat her like this if she is really crazy, right?

Without pause, she told Ji Que all the dreams she had encountered before and had tonight.

It was ridiculous that thing had found her, but she still had to say it.

Because she felt that if she didn't say it, she would go crazy and break down.

Besides, although this thing can't tell the truth from the fake, it can at least give Ji Que's brother a wake-up call.

In that dream just now, Brother Ji Que was tricked......

Thinking of that picture, Bai Lu shuddered.

Under the dim light, Bai Lu told about her absurd auditory hallucinations and bizarre and terrifying dreams.

Ji Que listened attentively, and almost took out a small notebook and wrote it down.

These things about Bai Lu obviously have a great connection with what he wants to investigate.

Her dream is definitely not as simple as a dream at night.

In many ghost stories since ancient times, there is a saying of "dreaming".

According to Bai Lu's description, the dream was extremely real, full of countless details, as if it were the real thing.

Does this mean that there really is such a corridor under the spring at the bottom of the lake?

Did the spirit fox want to ask for help through the dream realm, so that Bai Lu could find someone to save it?

But what the hell are those terrifying changes in the back?

Obviously, this dream is strange and complicated.

Ji Que felt that if there was really such a place in the spring at the bottom of the lake, it would be very likely to be close to the truth.

Ji Que decided to go to Ning Hongyu.

He comforted Bai Lu for a while and arranged for her to rest in the Dan room.

These days, as a porter, he is quite familiar with the female disciples who are alchemy inside.

Bai Lu looked at the blazing fire and the kind smiles of several female disciples who stayed up late to make alchemy, and gradually relaxed.

As long as there is a crowd, it seems that it is not so afraid.

Bai Lu was a little surprised for a while, and found that this season's brother was more feminine than she imagined.

Of course, what surprised her even more was the other party's temperament that made her feel at ease.

She didn't know why he had such a temperament as a porter, but in short, the flustered Bai Lu quickly calmed down.

After that, Ji Que went to Xue Qingning's residence that he heard during the day.

It's a pity that I didn't see anyone.

As a small porter, he was first stopped directly outside the door, and later, he risked being exposed and attacked at night and found that Xue Qingning, that is, Ning Hongyu, was really not there.

Where did the people run away on this big night?

Ji Que felt that it was necessary to determine the reality of Bai Lu's dream.

Perhaps, the thread he has been looking for, the thread that strings together those "beads" of truth, is there.

So, in almost the same night, Ji Que stood in front of the blue lake again.
