But what Wen Yuan didn't expect was that the space tearing technique couldn't be used in this underground cave, so what should she do?
Now it seems that they don't care about so much anymore. After the four of them waited for another day, it was finally night. Wen Yuan pretended to go to sleep, but she also got angry today.
She had been using invisibility to secretly observe the situation outside the tent.
I don't know how long it took, until Wen Yuan felt a little sleepy. Suddenly, a pair of eyes were in front of her, and Wen Yuan could feel the cold breath.
But these eyes seemed to be looking for something, oh... She forgot that she had cast the invisibility spell.
After a while, there was a rustling sound like the wind blowing away a fire. Wen Yuan wanted to open the tent, but was stopped by Shen Huaiyan from behind.
The man shook his head at her and signaled her not to do this, and Wen Yuan stopped.
They listened to the footsteps coming from outside. When Wen Yuan continued to peek, she found that these things were in a translucent soul state. She was so frightened that she got into Shen Huaiyan's arms.
Several people used magic to communicate, "Are they not human? Or... they are all..."
"They should all be souls, but judging from their appearance, they should be very afraid of fire. There was a fire in our tent and they didn't come in. Instead, they were in a dark place... filled with these... I don't know what to call them. , let’s call it a soul.”
Wen Yuan trembled all night, and these people didn't want to leave until dawn.
She didn't understand why this place was so eerie and weird like a mass grave.
Thinking of the mass graves, Wen Yuan suddenly came to her senses. She quickly asked Shen Huaiyan, "What is the symbol of Huanguo?"
The man was caught off guard by her sudden question, "Huh?"
"I asked you what the symbol of Huanguo is." Wen Yuan asked again with a pale face.
Both Xuanyuan and Quan believed that if Shen Huaiyan tried again this time, Wen Yuan would definitely slap him in the face.
But this time the man heard her question clearly and reacted without further thought. He answered without thinking: "It's an eagle..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Huaiyan realized the problem. The eagle logo could be seen everywhere along the way... and the emblem of Huanguo under the two sculptures.
All this shows that they are now in the fantasy country.
"Remember what the story said? Don't you think it's strange that the Fantasy Kingdom disappeared overnight after it was destroyed? Could it be that they didn't really destroy the country, but used a method that people didn't know at the time to destroy it? The state went underground.”
Wen Yuan's conjecture was actually a bit interesting, but Shen Huaiyan soon broke it, "I also want to agree with you, but that's not the case. The architectural style here is completely different from that of Fantasy Country... …But I think this place must have a very important relationship with Fantasy Country, otherwise it would be impossible to have eagle symbols everywhere, and everything still needs to be investigated slowly."
Investigating slowly, Wen Yuan suddenly became excited after hearing these words, "Investigating slowly? Then how long do we have to stay in this place? There is no exit here, and there are still a lot of lonely souls at night. I really can’t stand the sight of wild ghosts around me... You also know that this is what I fear the most.”
"I understand, I understand, but now we have no other choice but to investigate and find a way out. Ah Yuan, you are the commander of the Ten Thousand Demonic Abyss. It is easy for you to destroy these ghosts. You don't need to be afraid. .”
That was true, but Wen Yuan just couldn't overcome the fear in his heart...otherwise, how could he be so excited?
Quan walked up and patted Wen Yuan's right shoulder, "Okay, I'll teach you a very simple magic."
"What?" Wen Yuan felt that Quan's desire to teach him sorcery at this time must have ulterior motives, so his emotions calmed down a bit.
"The sun is shining." This is a magic that can illuminate the darkness. It is not very useful, so not many demons have learned it. However, as the deputy commander of the Ten Thousand Demonic Abyss, Quan can learn even these simple magics that he does not usually use. Mastered a lot.
As he released the magic, the surrounding environment was suddenly illuminated. "Since those things only come out at night and are afraid of candlelight, I believe they should also be afraid of this. Will they feel more at ease if they learn this?" "
It's true... Wen Yuan looked at the man's face and thanked her awkwardly. She felt a little embarrassed when she thought about how angry she was with Shen Huaiyan just now, "I'm sorry Huaiyan... I shouldn't have yelled at you just now... I... I was just worried. What if we can’t get out..."
Shen Huaiyan held Wen Yuan in his arms, "It doesn't matter, I know you are anxious, but at times like this, you should be calmer, right? Don't be so impatient in the future, it's not good for your own health. "
At this moment, the contact device on Quan's body rang, "Hey! Quan! Can you hear me?! Quan!"
This is the voice of the Emperor Bird. For some reason, Wen Yuan was a little excited when he heard her voice in this situation, "Emperor Bird?! It's really you. How did you contact us? You Did you come in here too?"
She completely forgot about the unpleasantness that happened not long ago.
The other end of the communication device was stunned for a moment after hearing Wen Yuan's voice, and then spoke, "No, I'm still here with the old couple. Did you... have you found the old site of Huanguo?!"
"I don't know either, but there are signs of Fantasy Country everywhere here, I think so." Wen Yuan looked at the eagle heads that could be seen everywhere.
At this time, Huangniao brought some very bad news to them, "I heard from an old couple here that there is another country under the old site of Huanguo. This country was once affected by Huanguo, but Their king and the king of Fantasy Kingdom later had irreconcilable differences, so they broke up completely. On the day that Fantasy Kingdom was broken, miserable screams came from that country. The old couple also said that it was a person who existed underground. Kingdom, I don’t understand what it means, but they asked me to remind you not to be confused by those things in the night, otherwise you will also be dragged into the endless abyss.”
The underground country...those things at night, every sentence corresponds to what Wen Yuan and the others experienced here.
"And I have to remind you that only four hours have passed now."
"Four hours? Four days have passed here." But now he knows that the time inside and outside is different, which allows Wen Yuan to calculate accurately.
The communication device stopped hearing sounds intermittently. Wen Yuan handed the things back to Quan, "It seems we have to stay here for a long time."
She sat down decadently, thinking about what the emperor said just now. Wen Yuan released the magic that Quan had just taught her and created an unbreakable barrier. "I don't believe in those people like this." Things can still come in tonight.”
At night again, Wen Yuan was so worried that she couldn't sleep. Listening to the violent wind coming from outside again, she got into the quilt in fear, "Huaiyan, do you think those things can get in this time?"
"It shouldn't be possible to get in." It's so bright outside, just like daytime. It's impossible for those things to seek death like this.
In fact, just as the man said, those things did not come near the place where Wen Yuan and the others slept tonight, which also gave Wen Yuan a rare good sleep in the past few days.
At dawn, after getting dressed, she saw that no one else had woken up yet, so she ran to a nearby mountain stream to wash up.
The mountain spring water flowing down from the waterfall was cold and sweet. Wen Yuan simply took off his clothes and soaked in the water.
"You have to know that this place is not suitable for a little girl like you to come alone."
A man's voice frightened Wen Yuan and immediately hid behind the stone, "What?! Who are you?!"
"I haven't asked you who you are yet." The man was obviously very interested in Wen Yuan.
I saw him walking to the shore and picking up Wen Yuan's dress, "How did you get in?"
"How did I get in is none of your business? How did you get in? You tell me." Her eyes signaled the man to put down his clothes. The man was also very sensible.
He sat down by the water and soaked his feet in the water, "I am a tomb robber, and I am very obsessed with the civilization of Fantasy Country, so I traveled thousands of miles to the former site of Fantasy Country. Unexpectedly, one sunrise day, I saw I walked in behind a gate and came here. I have been here for a long time and still haven't found a way out. You are the first living person I saw."
Hearing him say this, Wen Yuan relaxed a little and asked, "Did you come in like this too?"
The man's eyes shone as if he had seen his soulmate, "Could it be that you are too?!"
"Yes, but... I came here with my companions while chasing the smell of corpses. You said you have lived here for many years, but as far as I know, one hour outside is equivalent to one hour inside. One day, so maybe to people who know you, you just disappeared for a few days.”
Wen Yuan's words surprised the man, "Then how did you know the time difference between outside and here?"
"I have an idea, so can you avoid it now so that I can get dressed and take you to meet my companions. I guess your life here will not be easy."
The man understood the meaning of Wen Yuan's words, "You have seen them too, right? Those things that only come out at night."
"That's right, not only have I seen them, but there are also a lot of them." Wen Yuan got goosebumps all over when he thought of those souls.
But the man seemed to be used to it, "Actually, as long as there is a fire that doesn't go out every night, it's not a big problem. Just get used to it. It's become a daily routine for me."
"You are really open-minded."
After a while, Wen Yuan changed her clothes behind the stone, and she took the man to meet Shen Huaiyan and the others.
