Who is that……? He's watching...what?

Fu Yunge turned his head cautiously, only to see that there were few people on the street behind him. He couldn't see it wrong. Although it was obscured by those dry vines, he was very sure that there was someone in Chun Shui Tower at this time!

That was the back window of the pavilion, separated by a semi-circular wall. But it was precisely because of the small diamond-shaped windows on the wall that he was able to see this strange scene so clearly!

He walked quickly around the wall. There were various withered branches scattered on the ground. He quickly came to the window and carefully looked inside the building.

A gloomy feeling enveloped Fu Yunge's whole body in his blurred vision. Everything inside was dim, as if sealed in dust and haze.

But other than that...he didn't see the black shadow just now.

Could it be that he was dazzled just now?

Even though Fu Yunge was so suspicious, he still refused to leave easily. The host of Huajiu's guest reminded him, and Boss Lu helped him. One was curious and the other repaying the favor. The two emotions were subtly intertwined, making him hesitate and unable to retreat.

He subconsciously bent down, leaving only a few eyes to peek inside Chunshui Tower. No matter what, he still wanted to confirm that if there was really no movement, it would not be too late to leave.

Fu Yunge slowly calmed down. He stared at every corner inside and listened with one ear to what was going on inside. There were very few people on the street outside at this moment, and it was extremely quiet inside the wall.

The wind blew through the dry vines and broken leaves, and a few fell down and hit Fu Yunge's head. But he remained motionless, maintaining his original posture.

Counting the time in my mind. Fu Yunge thought to himself that if he still found nothing in another moment, he would leave immediately.

However, just as he was thinking this, a black shadow suddenly flashed past Chunshui Tower!

Not even a moment later, Fu Yunge jumped up as if he was electrocuted. Did he not expect that the lurker inside would be so impatient, or did he not expect that he would be hiding here to spy on him?

No matter how! Fu Yunge pulled out the sword from his back, targeted the gap between the two windows, and slashed it down steadily. Suddenly the wooden bolts inside the window broke, and the two windows slowly opened inwards.

It's important to catch the lurkers. Fu Yunge thought that the man had probably hidden himself after hearing the sound. If he was delayed for a moment to escape, there would be endless troubles, so he immediately jumped in with a sword in hand.

It was really dark inside the house. Some tables and chairs could be vaguely distinguished through the weak light. Fu Yunge cautiously walked around them and quickly chased them in the direction where the black shadow had just been running.

The interior of Chunshui Building was extremely spacious. Fu Yunge followed half of the hall using his memory, and finally came to an upwardly extending staircase.

He looked around cautiously, but found no other sign.

After taking a look at the dark upper level, Fu Yunge's hand holding the sword couldn't help but become a little nervous.

However, Boss Lu said that Chunshui Tower contains all kinds of their treasures. If it is allowed to be stolen by outsiders, the loss may be considerable.

A thought crossed my mind. Now that he has caught up here, there is no reason for him to retreat!

Making a decisive decision, he immediately chased up the stairs.

But at this moment, the window that had just been cut open by a sword gradually closed back together.

"Hoo, ho..."

My eyes are getting darker and darker. Fu Yunge galloped all the way, using up a lot of energy.

Climbing to the second floor, the original lobby layout is no longer there. The long and narrow corridor twists and turns, with rooms with tightly closed doors on both walls.

Because there is no light, it is almost impossible to see in the corridor. Fu Yunge stood there and adapted for a moment, and gradually he could see the direction of the road clearly.

Could it be that... that person came here?

He was a little confused. Looking at so many rooms in front of you, can you still open the door and look for them rashly?

Take a deep breath. He tentatively stepped forward, holding the wall with one hand and holding the sword in front of him with the other.

Step by step, Fu Yunge held his breath and concentrated, sucking in every bit of abnormality in the air. But with the true energy blocked, he was really at a loss based on his five senses in the darkness.

Walking forward, suddenly, there was a slow "squeak" from under my feet.

This sound startled Fu Yunge, who was fully vigilant. When he loosened his foot, he realized that he had just stepped on a raised wooden board.

"Huh..." Fu Yunge breathed a sigh of relief. Turn around and keep moving forward.

However, the moment he took another step, the creepy "squeak" sound echoed again.

"?!"

Different from last time, Fu Yunge was keenly aware of the strangeness here, and his face was shocked!

Where did this sound come from? !

Just when he was maintaining the highest level of vigilance, standing in the darkness like a stone statue, suddenly, another "squeaking" sound like a cat meowing came into his ears from all directions that his nerves could detect!

Here, there is a problem!

Just as he was thinking this way, a darker block of color seemed to gradually protrude from the floor in the darkness. Without even the slightest reaction, Fu Yunge's nerves suddenly trembled, and he subconsciously blocked the sword in his hand, only to hear a sharp "crack" sound!

Fu Yunge immediately took two steps back, his back rising and falling uncontrollably. Such force, even though it was only a moment of handover, still made his entire arm lose touch!

The enemy has arrived!

Without enough time to think or react, Fu Yunge forced himself to stay calm, and a strange "gurgling" sound like mud suddenly came from his left ear.

At the same time, his left hand holding the wall felt a mucus-like moisture!

not good! Fu Yunge screamed secretly and flew forward quickly. At the same time, he immediately turned around and was surprised to see mixed in the darkness, there was a pool of dark liquid on the wall where he was standing just now, and... an arm holding a knife stretched out from it!

The light of the sword also disappeared in an instant, as if in a dream. Fu Yunge suddenly realized what the enemy he was facing was capable of.

He roused himself with all his strength, and the moment he felt the floor under his abdomen become soft, he immediately rolled forward first. What followed was a knife thrust out from the floor. It was just a hair's breadth away from disembowelling Fu Yunge.

Fu Yunge, who had lost the ability to defend himself, was in an extremely embarrassed state.

PS: Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year. I wish my dear readers a Happy New Year~ Another year has passed. Thank you for accompanying me. "Nine Songs of a Dangerous World" will continue to accompany you. In addition, I originally planned to celebrate the Spring Festival in the work in sync with reality, but I didn’t expect that because the update frequency did not catch up, I had to let Fu Yunge and the others wait a little longer (thoughts). Without further ado, I wish everyone all the best, health, happiness, and getting better and better in the new year~
