Then a light slowly appeared in front of his eyes, and clouds of yin energy flashed past. With a "pop", Zhang Xiaosheng fell into a pool.
The water was very shallow, only covering his calves, which startled him.
Zhang Xiaosheng stood up and looked around. It looked like a village, with dozens of houses standing there. It was extremely gray, with no green things in sight, and no life.
He looked around and found no one else.
Zhang Xiaosheng opened his mouth to shout, looked at the lifeless village, then quickly shut up and ran into a house.
He didn't know where everyone else had gone, and he couldn't sense any breath. He didn't even see a single footprint on the road he ran just now.
The ground is full of dust, and even a bug crawling across will leave clear traces.
But Zhang Xiaosheng noticed just now that on the road he passed just now, there was no trace of any footprints or traces within the visible range.
He hid in the house and did not dare to go out. He turned around and looked at the dilapidated room. Messy supplies were scattered all over the floor, and they were all ancient supplies from hundreds of years ago.
After waiting for a while, it was eerily quiet outside, without any sound.
Zhang Xiaosheng walked carefully to the gate of the courtyard, stuck his head out and looked out.
He walked slowly along the wall, looking back from time to time. Nothing was out of the ordinary until he walked a long way.
Zhang Xiaosheng took a deep breath and plucked up the courage to shout loudly: "Is there anyone there?"
The quiet village has no response, just gray houses and winding roads.
He tried to release a trace of true energy. Unlike the square area, the true energy dispersed in the wind and slowly disappeared.
Zhang Xiaosheng was puzzled, but he didn't dare to walk on the road arrogantly, so he had to get into a small courtyard next to him.
…
After Yu Xiaolong came in unexpectedly, he found the deserted village. He didn't understand why it was not a place like an underground palace, but a lifeless small village.
He saw no other people or life, not even a ghost, and even though he shouted several times, there was no response. Yu Xiaolong looked around and entered the nearest house.
There was nothing in the room, nothing but dust on the ground that was several inches thick and looked to be hundreds of years old.
Yu Xiaolong walked to the door of the house and looked outside suspiciously, wondering if other friends would be able to come in.
According to common sense, if they come in and encounter danger, there will definitely be the sound and smell of fighting, and Yu Xiaolong will sense it. Even if you fail to defeat the opponent and are captured, at least there will be traces left.
But now it was completely silent outside, and you could even hear the beating of your own heart clearly.
Yu Xiaolong released a trace of his true energy. This time, it was not sucked away like outside. It was a very normal environment.
But with everything outside, Yu Xiaolong could not calm down no matter what. He knew deeply that this place would never be an ordinary place.
Yu Xiaolong calmed down and recalled why he came here suddenly and why others were fine. Could he be a ghost? He is just a ghost, and Zhang Xiaosheng is also a ghost like himself. Why is he okay? Even if he has thirty-two veins that defy heaven, it should have nothing to do with this.
A series of questions made Yu Xiaolong depressed. He really couldn't figure out why, and he didn't know where this place was.
Yu Xiaolong hesitated whether he should wait here or go out and search actively.
Looking at the depressing environment outside, Yu Xiaolong felt uncomfortable inside, even a little bit hairy.
Suddenly, raindrops suddenly fell from the sky. Although it was drizzle, Yu Xiaolong was horrified to find that it turned out to be black raindrops.
Yu Xiaolong frowned. The black raindrops were like ink, odorless and non-corrosive. However, Yu Xiaolong knew that this was unusual, so he hid in the house.
He didn't know what the rain meant, and he didn't know what would happen. Although it seemed harmless, he didn't dare to take risks, so he could only hide inside quietly for the time being.
He was very confused about where those ghosts had gone. They all disappeared in the square area. There were hundreds of ghosts, but there was not a single ghost here, and there was no trace. Where did I go? Can my friends come in? Can they meet each other when they come in?
The black rain kept falling, and I didn't see a friend or a ghost during this period. It continued like this for a full hour, and the black rain finally stopped.
Yu Xiaolong walked outside, looked around, and walked deeper into the village.
There are dilapidated houses everywhere, each one covered with a thick layer of dust, and the black rainwater is gurgling under his feet. The gloomy environment makes Yu Xiaolong tremble with fear, fearing that something will suddenly happen somewhere. Something terrible pops up.
Just in case, Yu Xiaolong put out the protective shield, held the Taoist talisman in his hand, and walked forward, turning back three times step by step.
Soon, Yu Xiaolong walked to the center of the village, where a pool nearly ten meters in diameter stood in the center.
He didn't dare to approach rashly, so he played a Taoist talisman and went over. After getting no response, Yu Xiaolong slowly walked to the pool.
It was all filled with black water. I don’t know if it was the rain just now or if it was originally black.
He took out the demon-slaying sword and tested it. The water was very shallow, only less than ten centimeters.
After a few hard thrusts, the bottom of the water was very hard and seemed to be made of stone.
Yu Xiaolong circled the pool several times and didn't see anything strange.
Having no other choice, he continued walking to other places. Yu Xiaolong looked around the entire village and found nothing worth noting.
Finally, Yu Xiaolong returned to the pool again, and he vaguely felt that this place was unusual.
He played a Taoist talisman into the water, and there were only splashes and ripples.
Yu Xiaolong was so irritated that he simply shouted loudly: "Is there anyone there?"
The mysterious village still stood there quietly, without any other sound responding to him.
Suddenly, there was a commotion in the distance, and from a distance, dozens of black figures were walking towards this side.
Yu Xiaolong felt nervous and hurriedly ran to the nearest yard to hide, looking out secretly.
The black shadow moved slowly from far to near. Only then did Yu Xiaolong realize that there were dozens of ghosts walking staggeringly, exactly the same as those he had seen before.
They entered the pool directly, several rays of light flashed continuously, and within a short time, dozens of ghosts disappeared.
"Holy shit! You bastard, what's going on?" Yu Xiaolong was so surprised that he cursed.
It turned out to be the same as the outside, another thing similar to teleportation!
Yu Xiaolong was in trouble now. Should he go in or wait for his friends outside? After careful consideration, Yu Xiaolong thought that he should go in and have a try.
He has already visited this village all over, and there is no point in continuing to wait. He might as well find out.
Yu Xiaolong made a mark on the ground beside the pool and stood in the pool carefully.
He took a deep breath and activated his Qi.
Hearing only a "swish" sound, Yu Xiaolong's eyes went dark, and his body was spinning rapidly. When he was about to vomit, his eyes lit up and he found himself standing under a withered tree.
