Peng's father thought of the old couple he met on the way back.

The old man and the old lady grabbed him and kindly reminded him.

But what they said was feudal superstition and nonsense, how could he believe it? Their family can be regarded as watching Meng Sinan grow up, Ah Yun has had a good relationship with Meng Sinan since he was a child, Meng Sinan often goes to their house to play, and Xiaoqin also took care of Meng Sinan and his crazy mother.

He didn't believe it, and the old couple was even more anxious.

The other neighbors who gradually gathered together also spoke in unison.

The old residents in these communities all behaved in a serious and frightened manner.

The situation of Meng Sinan's family is known to everyone. What a lot of trouble back then! It's a mess every once in a while! There were a few times when things got so big that the neighbors had to call the police, but the result was that the troublemakers were persuaded to leave and driven away, and then after a while, the old ways relapsed, which was annoying.

Of course, this is only the most obvious problem of Meng Sinan's family. As for what they are really afraid of is Meng Sinan's child, they do not hide this, and even tell Peng's father Meng Sinan bluntly that he has many problems.

They are helpless against Meng Sinan's family, they can only exclude, stay away, or even selectively forget, and they also hope that Peng's father will repent and stay away from Meng Sinan.

Peng's father felt ridiculous and angry.

If everything is true, why didn't these people say it before, and helped Meng Sinan's family hide it?

He asked angrily, and everyone was divided.

Maybe it's because Meng Sinan's bastard father often came back at that time, and his poor crazy mother was still there, and Meng Sinan was still a child, and sometimes the family behaved normally, and everyone was afraid of getting into trouble, and they had a little sympathy......

Maybe it's because someone is dead now – something that hasn't happened in the past.

Peng Yun died suddenly, or did he and his uncle Yu Xingxing die violently on the front and back feet......

Neighbors are talking, and new residents are joining in without knowing the inside story. Fear is contagious in the crowd, and the warm atmosphere cools down. The originally excited crowd gradually dispersed, leaving Peng's father alone dragging his heavy footsteps and moving home little by little.

Thinking of this, Father Peng subconsciously asked Meng Sinan: "What did you see?" What's out there? ”

Meng Sinan was stunned and turned his head to look at Father Peng.

Father Peng retreated to the door, stood still again, blocked in the bedroom, and looked at Meng Sinan vigilantly and fearfully.

Meng Sinan lowered his eyes and covered the sadness in his eyes.

He replied in a low voice, "Nothing...... When you come back, I'll go back first. Tell my aunt for me. I ......" he wanted to say, "Come back in a few days", just like before, talking to Peng Yun's parents familiarly, naturally and cordially, but at this time he couldn't speak.

"I'm going back." Meng Sinan could only say this, didn't look at Father Peng again, and walked straight to the door.

He pulled the door open.

The wind became more and more violent.

The hallway was pitch black, like a black mist.

Meng Sinan opened and closed the door quickly, and was already standing at the door in a blink of an eye.

He raised his eyes when he heard the movement, and saw the light in the cat's eye on the other side of the door.

He could imagine the other party sneaking up on the cat's eye to spy on him, and he could also imagine the other party seeing him hurriedly retreating, hurriedly turning off the lights, and pretending that there was no one at home.

This is the attitude of these neighbors towards Meng Sinan's family before Peng Yun's family moved here.

Without that little light, the surroundings were plunged into complete darkness.

However, Meng Sinan knows the situation of this residential building well.

He went downstairs without any hindrance.

It was also dark outside the corridor window.

But unlike the darkness that has no light in the corridor, the black outside has different shades.

Meng Sinan saw through the window the pile of meat crowded forward.

He didn't stop, talking on the phone as he went.

Kong Dongmei...... Didn't answer.

Niu Haixi ...... Didn't answer the phone.

Even Wu Dao didn't answer the phone.

Beads of sweat dripped from Meng Sinan's forehead.

He had reached the first floor, and it was still dark outside the iron gate, only the wind howled.

He exhaled, opened the security door, and rushed out.

That's not Peng Yun, it's some other monster.

If it was coming for him, then he had to lure it away and not let it hurt Peng Yun's parents.

Meng Sinan desperately rushed out a few steps, and then stopped blankly.

He looked back.

The pile of flesh consisted of a shriveled and dehydrated human body. Those people were like dried corpses that had been dead for a long time, starving, but they were still moving, gathering together, carrying the wind and sand, and moving aimlessly.

They weren't coming for him......

Meng Sinan softened his feet and sat down on the ground.

After Sha Kai invited Li Yun into the house, he kept talking about the weirdness that had just happened a few times. He racked his brains, for fear that something would be omitted and mislead Li Yun.

Because of Zhou Wenli's sudden death, his previous fear of that little ghost was temporarily forgotten. Now, these emotions are sweeping back and becoming more violent.

Shakai had a faint feeling in his heart. The weirdness just now is more terrifying than those "pranks" of the little ghosts. He was obviously not injured, but it could be called a false alarm, he didn't see any scary things such as bugs and blood, but he heard some sounds, but there was a trembling feeling from his soul, which lingered.

"It's not that little ghost...... Sha Kai's teeth trembled, "That movement just now, it shouldn't be that little ghost...... I mean, I heard the imp screaming, but, but ......."

Shakai was a little anxious, obviously he had a wonderful premonition, but it was difficult to express it in words.

Li Yun had always been very calm, scanning the room, silent, and only then did he speak: "Hmm." The movement just now was not made by that little ghost. That little ghost, it should have been ...... He's dead. ”

Shakai was stunned.

"You don't have to worry. You're not in danger. Li Yun comforted.

Sha Kai looked at Li Yun blankly, "That little ghost, killed by something else?" ”

"Hmm." Li Yun nodded.

The breath and blood stains at the door all proved this.

The imp was killed by the hungry. Moreover, it was eaten by the hungry.

Li Yun thought of what he had just experienced.

Those who are hungry are coming for the devil.

He was startled and suddenly looked up.

Shakai was startled.

"I-" Li Yun was about to say goodbye when the phone in his pocket rang. His face sank, and instead of answering the phone, he continued, "I'll go first." Those things won't hurt you. You stay at home. ”

With that, he turned around and opened the door and rushed out.

Sha Kai subconsciously stretched out his hand and opened his mouth, but he failed to stop Li Yun. His voice was stuck in his throat.

Just now, Li Yun turned his back to him......

Is that blood?

Shakai shuddered.

He looked at the open door, and a spirit hurriedly closed and locked it.

After doing this, he relented.

The imp is dead...... Killed by something else......

The thought came to Shakai's mind, and he turned to look at the mourning hall in the living room.

He looked at Zhou Wenli's last photo, leaned his back against the door, and slowly sat down on the ground.

Whether it is a living person or a ghost, they are so fragile that in the blink of an eye, they may be gone. Originally, I thought that even if a person died, it might become a ghost......

The bell rings in the empty room.

Shakai duly fumbled into his pocket and pulled out his phone.

The caller was his father.

The phone is connected.

"Akai, I've bought my ticket, and I'll be there tomorrow morning." A familiar voice came from the other end of the phone.

Tears welled up in Shakai's eyes.

He stared blankly at Zhou Wenli's portrait, tears becoming more and more.

He raised his hand and wiped his face, his body trembling uncontrollably.

Finally, he began to weep bitterly.

The image of the mother, who has been vacant and distorted since childhood, quickly plumped up during this period of time together, but when he was not aware of it, it disappeared forever.

He didn't love Zhou Wenli, but he couldn't suppress the loss and fear in his heart, like a piece of his soul was missing and could no longer be filled.

When he heard his father's voice, he finally couldn't restrain his emotions.

"Akai ......" The father on the other end of the phone also choked up and couldn't speak.

Not for Zhou Wenli's ex-wife, but for Sha Kai, a son who has been dependent on him for decades.

Outside the Third Courtyard, the wind was howling and the yellow sand was all over the sky.

There are no tall piles of meat blocking the entrance of the hospital or lying on the hospital building, and there are scattered human bodies scattered all over the hospital.

Follow these human bodies, whether complete or mutilated, and walk for a while to see some traces of blood that have not yet disappeared.

The doctors and nurses on the night shift are still busy. The emergency room was brightly lit and there were voices from time to time. The inpatient department is quiet and peaceful, and the occasional emergency provokes the doctors and nurses on duty to run, bringing tension, but it is not as tragic as the situation in the corridor.

The three courtyards seem to be divided by yin and yang, the living are struggling to survive on the edge of death, and the ghosts have already experienced a tragic and cruel battlefield, with few survivors, leaving the ground full of chaos.

Li Yun does not have the ability to teleport thousands of miles and shuttle through space. He ran back to the big tree, and in a cloud of ashes, his consciousness was out of his body, and he rushed to the third courtyard.

The consciousness floated very high, and the gaze passed through the building, overlooking the entire three courtyards, and these tragic scenes were also reflected in the soul.

In my ears was the sound of ghosts crying and wolf howling.

His consciousness sank into the ground in an instant, and he saw the many ghosts of the Third Courtyard gathered in front of the underground morgue.

Yin Shikang was at the forefront. The old man was half covered in blood, but his momentum was more terrifying than usual, like a real ghost, with his hair all open, and black gas. He was surrounded by sturdy young ghosts, punching and kicking their legs, and some brandishing scalpels and scissors, covered in blood and red eyes.

They protected the other ghosts behind them, but they couldn't retreat and were pushed to the extreme.

Song Yingying scurried through the crowd, occasionally dragging her wounded companions down from the front line of the battle, and delivering a large basket of scalpels for supplies to the fighters.

Wang Yiqiu was also among the ghosts, helping to deliver things and bandage the wounds of the injured ghosts.

The two little girls were also stained with blood, and they didn't bother to wipe them, only when their hands slipped because of the blood, they wiped them on their bodies.

The moment Li Yun landed, the flames ignited in the morgue.

The hungry people who rushed forward and behind were ignited by the flames, let out screams, waved their shriveled arms, and were burned to char little by little.

Yin Shikang, who was standing at the front, perked up and shouted: "Li Yun! ”

Wang Yiqiu and Song Yingying also raised their heads, looking for Li Yun's figure everywhere.

Only Li Yun's consciousness came, and they naturally couldn't see it.

The flames burned for a while, but the number of starving people gathered here in the Third Courtyard was staggering, far from being comparable to the Roshan that Li Yun had encountered before.

Hunger is coming for ghosts, and there are so many ghosts gathered here in the Third Courtyard, so it's no wonder that there are so many hungry here. This is also the result of the ghosts of the Three Courtyards having been fighting for a long time and killing many of them starving.

The flames gradually extinguished.

Li Yun felt that he could no longer summon more flames.

His heart tightened, and he thought of Uncle Li.

But strangely, he didn't feel Uncle Li's fear.

Is it Xue Xiaolian and Yi Xin who are protecting Uncle Li?

Or is the boss in the office right now?

The boss's flame was taken back, was it used to protect himself and his employees?

One question after another flashed in Li Yun's mind, and he couldn't think deeply, and he couldn't seek answers for the time being.

He looked at the hungry people who came up again, and he could only use his abilities.

For a moment, Li Yun felt a strong sense of emptiness.

These starving emotions are like black holes, bottomless, and they need something to fill them, or they will only follow their instincts to plunder and kill.

They want to fill their emptiness with ghosts.

Li Yun stabilized his mind and remembered the first time he saw these starving scenes:

The towering city wall in the yellow sand, the hungry people who gathered under the city wall and tried to climb hard......

Drunken ......

There was a momentary pause in the movements of the hungry.

Li Yun felt a great deal of pressure.

The word "Xudu" seemed to have magic power at this moment, as if the city descended with Li Yun's shout and pressed on Li Yun's consciousness.

He saw the sand, the city walls, and even the city gates.

His gaze moved up a little.

Modern skyscrapers that don't fit in with the loess city walls come into view.

On top of that, there's ......

The mist-shrouded green peaks appear impressively.

Obviously so far away, the mountain peaks are like ink paintings, blurred, but Li Yun seems to see animals jumping in the forest.

Those animals......

Li Yun's heart was beating wildly.

What are the striped creatures that swim between the turquoise peaks and the white clouds? And the snow-white four-hoofed elk......

Whoa—

The waves of the sea are crashing against the rock face.

Although it was invisible, a sound came from inside the city, through the out-of-place skyscraper, and into Li Yun's ears.

The city has changed......

He heard from Uncle Li, and Uncle Li heard from Jiang Longchang that the capital city had changed.

Is this the change in the city of Xudu?

That fairy mountain......

"Whoa—"

"Ahh

The hungry screamed in unison.

The emptiness in their hearts grows stronger.

Originally, they attacked Yin Shikang and other ghosts, but after Li Yun's ability was activated, they also began to bite each other.

They want to go back to the capital.

Li Yun felt something.

His consciousness was briefly alarmed by starvation, and he was pulled back to the outside of the city.

That immortal mountain seems to have come to life.

The living creatures in the mountains he saw turned their heads in unison.

A pair of inhuman eyes and a sharp gaze fell on Li Yun.

The sound of the phoenix sounded in his ears.

The city of Xudu flew away with the immortal mountain.

No, it was his own consciousness that was pulled away.

Li Yun gasped and fell to his knees.

The canopy overhead is blown by the wind, and the leaves rustle.

Sweat dripped from Li Yun's head and smashed on the concrete floor.

Blood oozed from his back, staining Li Yun's clothes red.

Li Yun didn't feel frightened, but he lay on the ground weakly.

No way......

Li Yun's fingers moved, grasping the ground and grasping the cement flower bed beside him.

Where are the three hospitals......

Li Yun felt a wave of heat.

He struggled to look up, as if he saw a pair of red eyes, like two clusters of flames.

Before he could see the other party's appearance clearly, he felt that he had been caught and flew high into the air.

Faster than when Black Impermanence took him across thousands of miles.

In the blink of an eye, Li Yun landed at the gate of the Third Courtyard.

Boss......

Li Yun's pocket was empty, and his ID card disappeared.

He turned his head to look.

Those eyes seemed to disappear with the ID card, but Li Yun felt that the heat source was still there.

There seemed to be something on his back, and as soon as his mind moved, he could hear the flapping of wings.
