When Xu Nuo opened his eyes again, the scene in front of him had changed.

He found himself in a small village in the mountains, with many children playing and playing in front of him.

He just took a quick look and discovered that the scene in front of him was unreal.

Everything is like a shadow, not solid, but translucent.

While passing an old locust tree, Xu Nuo saw a group of children playing and playing.

A little boy with a shaved head was playing and running around with others. As if he didn't realize that Xu Nuo was standing in front of him, he rushed straight towards Xu Nuo. Xu Nuo didn't dodge, and the two figures collided. But there was no scene where one party was knocked down by the other.

The little boy passed through Xu Nuo's body in a daze.

"Is this an illusion? Although I appear here, I don't know where this place is."

He walked aimlessly in the village, and all he saw were unfamiliar faces that he had no impression of at all.

The words in their mouths sounded quite heavy in Xu Nuo's ears. He could only know that they were talking to each other, but he had no idea what they were talking about.

Xu Nuo walked in the village for a while, but when he came back to his senses, he found that he was standing at the very beginning again.

"A ghost beating a wall?" Xu Nuo pinched his chin and looked around, finding that the surrounding scenery was no different from what he had seen before.

In front of him was the same scene, passing by the same big locust tree, and the same group of children playing and playing.

If he had traveled through time and came to this world, Xu Nuo might have been a little panicked, but now the world he is in has all kinds of strange things, so he is not too panicked.

Of course, what made him feel at ease was that he realized that his cultivation strength was still there.

After a little movement of the zhenqi in his body, he activated the qi machine to flow the zhenqi to his eyes. Xu Nuo slowly opened his eyes, and everything in front of him changed.

There were no more children running around, no more villagers talking about things. What Xu Nuo saw were rows of corpses lying on the ground.

The scene in front of him made Xunuo feel a little uncomfortable. His stomach was churning. He leaned over and vomited several times, but nothing could be vomited out.

Compared with the previous scene, which was weird but overall harmonious, now this place is simply like a purgatory on earth.

Enduring a lot of discomfort, Xu Nuo moved forward slowly with slow steps.

I don’t know how much time has passed, but the sun is still hanging high in the sky without moving even a minute. I have lost the concept of time. I don’t know if it’s because of being here. Xu Nuo doesn’t even feel tired.

Just when he thought everything would last forever, suddenly he heard bursts of sobs coming from the wooden house next to him.

I carefully opened the door and searched for a while, and I saw a skinny little girl huddled in the corner crying.

Just when Xu Nuo looked at her, the little girl raised her head and met his gaze.

The little girl's appearance was not outstanding, she was just a girl you could see everywhere, but when Xu Nuo saw her face, she realized her name.

"Bai Jiaren?"

At this point, Xu Nuo realized that the place he was in was not an illusion, but Bai Jiaren's inner thoughts.

It can also be said that this is her nightmare and inner demon.

Combining the past events he heard from Bai Jiaren before, Xu Nuo sighed slightly and did not come forward. Instead, he sat down a little far away from Bai Jiaren.

Bai Jiaren stopped sobbing and looked at Xu Nuo warily. She fumbled with her right hand and picked up a kitchen knife with a wooden handle. She lifted it up and raised the blade to Xu Nuo.

"Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you." Xu Nuo said slowly.

It seemed that she felt no threat from Xu Nuo. Although Bai Jiaren did not put down the kitchen knife, nor did she attack him directly, her slightly trembling shoulders showed that she was afraid.

"I haven't seen you."

Bai Jiaren said coldly: "What are you here for?"

Xu Nuo rubbed his hair. He didn't know what to say to Bai Jiaren, who looked like a child now.

It should be said that he entered her inner world before she died and came to provide her with hospice care?

That kind of rhetoric is just ridiculous.

Xu Nuo thought for a while and then said, "Why don't you leave?"

"Where are you going?" Bai Jiaren stared, "This is my home."

"Wouldn't it be boring to stay here all the time?"

Bai Jiaren didn't speak anymore, but her hand holding the kitchen knife gradually tightened.

Seeing that it was impossible to have a normal conversation with her, Xu Nuo stood up and was about to leave, but was stopped by Bai Jiaren behind him.

"Aren't you here to kill me?"

"Why should I kill you?"

"..."

Seeing that Bai Jiaren was no longer talking, Xu Nuo smiled helplessly and walked out of the wooden house. The outside world was still the scene he had seen before, and nothing had changed.

At this time, Xu Nuo finally got used to the corpses all over the ground. He looked at one of the corpses and immediately discovered a clue.

"There is a wound on the neck. It was a fatal blow from a sharp weapon..."

Look at another body, this time it's the heart, with a penetrating wound.

The wound on the next one was on the side of the abdomen, and it looked like the barrel had directly penetrated the lung.

Although he didn't have much knowledge of physiology and medicine, Xu Nuo could roughly understand that the corpses on the ground were all killed by one blow during their lifetime.

If this is the village Bai Jiaren mentioned, it doesn't seem to match her previous description.

"What happened here?"

Just when this idea came to his mind, Xu Nuo felt his eyes flicker. When he came back to his senses, he found that the body on the ground had disappeared.

The sun in the sky is not hanging high above the head, looking at the sky, it is early morning.

"Giggle!"

Accompanied by the sound of a rooster crowing from somewhere, a man carrying a hoe walked out from the house next to Xu Nuo, and happened to meet Xu Nuo face to face.

But this time, the man was not a phantom, nor did he pass directly from Xu Nuo, but bumped into him.

"Hey, this little brother is very cool. Where did he come from?"

Xu Nuo was a little surprised: "Can you see me?"

"Of course, it's still haunted in broad daylight." The man laughed, turned and left.

For a moment, Xu Nuo was a little confused. He couldn't figure out whether he was in illusion or reality.

Every household opened its doors, and several villagers walked out of them. They gathered together in twos and threes and chatted about the gossip in the village on a daily basis.

Several children rushed out of the house, Xu Nuo took a closer look and saw Bai Jiaren among them.

"Could it be that this is where the villagers were lying dead?" Xu Nuo murmured to himself.
