Chapter 39: The Mirror of Yin

The monster was like a hyena staring at its prey, keeping pace with us.

Chasing us from behind.

Our stamina is no match for this monster.

So sooner or later, there will be a time when you will be tired and lie down.

Then it's time for it to eat.

Looking at the hideous appearance of the monster, I was full of doubts.

Not just wondering about its existence, but also wondering about what is happening.

Zhao Ertian, the tomb, and the gossip mirror, what is going on with all this?

These things seem to be connected, but they can't find a way to connect.

Just when I was puzzled, a feeling suddenly struck me in my heart.

At this moment, we are like sheep being chased by wolves.

The wolves kept their speed behind them, and the sheep fled desperately in front.

Eventually, the sheep will fall off the cliff, and the old, weak, sick and disabled will fall behind.

We are sheep, and the monster is a wolf.

But there is no cliff in front of us, and there is no old, weak, sick or disabled.

So what is it for?

"Oh no, dead end!" The fat man suddenly exclaimed.

It's over, I'm shocked.

I finally understood why he was chasing at a constant pace.

But at this point it was useless to understand.

Looking at the towering houses in front of you, one next to the other.

Unless we have wings, there is no way forward.

And the monster seemed to have succeeded in its scheme.

The hideous face twisted into an eerie arc.

The scarlet eyes shone with greed.

Looking at its face, I just felt sick.

This thing doesn't look like a filthy thing that would appear in this world.

We had no way back, and it began to approach.

The twisted limbs had grown sharp claws by this time.

Every step that falls leaves a large spark on the ground.

Watch it get closer and closer.

I don't have time to go through the Three Corpses to find out what he is.

"Brother Li, is there a way?" The fat man asked me anxiously.

I wanted to tell him that there was a way, but in fact I was even more panicked than him.

Is this time really over?

Looking at the gaping mouth, I fantasize about the monster feasting on us.

I was so anxious and scared that I even came up with the idea that I might be able to feel more comfortable just by killing myself.

Quickly shook his head and threw out this negative thought.

But when I looked at the other three.

But I found that the despair on their faces was even stronger than mine.

Is it really hopeless this time?

Could it be that God really wants us to die here?

I kept begging in my heart, praying for some miracle.

Suddenly, a shrill rooster crow came from far and near.

The monster was also slightly stunned when it heard this voice, and its eyes flashed with reluctance.

The rooster song represents the dawn of the day, and it also represents Huaiyi Village, which will return to an eerie calm.

The monster seemed a little unwilling to hear the sound of a rooster crowing.

In the distance, the sky in the east has already appeared white, and the morning light is about to appear.

It doesn't seem to be able to finish us off before dawn.

Then he spat out his scarlet tongue at us, licking his lips greedily.

As if to tell us that it can't solve us now, but by tonight, it will come back.

Watch as the monster retreats step by step, gradually disappearing into the darkness.

We glanced at each other, and each smiled like the aftermath of the catastrophe.

The fat man folded his hands on the side, thanking the crowing rooster.

No one expected that at this critical moment, it was a chicken that saved us.

"Huh, it's really a catastrophe and there will be a blessing if you don't die, my fat master will never eat chicken again in the future!"

After the fat man exhaled a long breath, several of us sat down on the ground at the same time.

Wait until the dawn is about to cross the mountaintop.

It was only when it was getting light that we stood up with each other's arms.

Back on the street, it was the scene of the gloomy wind and the deserted scene.

Even in the daytime, it makes people feel chills down their backs.

Picking up the pace, we are finally back in the broken house.

But as soon as he entered the house, the fat man immediately packed up his things.

"Whoever wants to stay in this broken place, just for that tattered bronze coffin, my brothers almost gave up their lives."

"If you don't leave, that thing comes out again tonight, my brothers won't be able to run away."

Seeing the fat man's anxious appearance, I wanted to persuade him to stay first.

But I don't know what to say.

Hesitating, I walked over to the fat man's side.

"Grandpa must have his intentions in arranging for me to come here."

"I'm supposed to stay!"

Hearing my voice, the fat man's hand froze in mid-air.

Zhang San and Li Si also came around.

"Brother Li, you don't have a fever, do you? Is there a way to stay in this place? ”

The fat man was about to touch my forehead as he spoke.

"No way, I don't want to involve you this time, you guys go quickly!" I whispered.

Then I sat down and carefully flipped through the Three Corpses Sutra that my grandfather had left me.

And the three of them didn't try to persuade me again, but discussed whether they should stay or not.

The reason why I flipped through the Three Corpses Sutra was because of the gossip mirror in the bronze coffin.

I should have seen it in the Three Corpses Sutra, but I really can't remember the introduction to him.

After a while, on the fourth page of the Yin Book of the Three Corpses, I finally found the answer.

I stood up excitedly, just as the fat man walked in front of me.

"Brother Li, no matter what, you have to leave this time."

"We can't get into danger, and we can't let you go in such a dangerous situation." The fat man said earnestly.

I ignored him and grabbed him by the shoulder.

"I know, I know what it's all about!"

I was holding the Three Corpses Sutra, looking a little excited.

They looked at me with a bewildered expression.

"Brother Li, what do you know?" Li Si walked over.

I quickly opened the Three Corpses Sutra and told them.

"There are no people in this Huaiyi Village, and there are no ghosts!" I said excitedly.

They frowned, as if they didn't understand what I meant.

There are no people and no ghosts, so what is chasing us?

What kind of villagers did we meet?

Looking at their puzzled expressions, I continued to explain.

"It can be said that there are no people and no ghosts, but it can also be said that there are people and ghosts!"

The fat man raised his hand and touched my forehead.

"Brother Li, you don't have a fever either, why did you start talking nonsense?"

"It's over, eighty percent of them were frightened by today's big zongzi, and after I go out, I have to find a doctor to take a good look."

The fat man already thinks I'm talking gibberish.

I was also a little anxious, so I hurriedly spread the Three Corpses Sutra in front of them.

"All the problems are on the gossip mirror we saw yesterday."

"That's no ordinary gossip mirror."

"It's a yin mirror that walks in the yin!"
