At night.
There was silence in the inn.
The little guy shivered under the covers.
"Brother Ming, let's find Sister Qinghuang and Sister Wusheng as soon as possible tomorrow morning, and then leave here as soon as possible."
"Okay, okay, don't be afraid," Lin Ming smiled slightly, "It's just that the shopkeeper disappeared before our eyes."
"He didn't just disappear!" The little guy swallowed his saliva, "I even saw him turn into a ghost!"
Lin Ming shook his head and sat on the edge of the bed, soothing the little guy's head.
"It's not that exaggerated. I didn't notice that he turned into a ghost with my mind's eye. It was just another life form. You can think of it as a small branch of the human race."
"It's completely different! I've seen the Bone Clan before, but it's different from them. If we had entered the room a little later, we would have been dragged out to the street."
The little guy scared himself so much that he was trembling all over.
Lin Ming shook his head helplessly, "Go to sleep first. Once you wake up, everything will be stable and everything will be fine."
"Brother Ming, please don't leave." The little guy said timidly.
Lin Ming rolled his eyes at him, "I know, I know, do you want me to sing you another nursery rhyme?"
"Okay, okay, listening to nursery rhymes is the best way to fall asleep. Brother Ming is so good." The little guy curled up into a ball, leaned against the pillow, and pulled some quilts.
Lin Ming smiled and opened his lips: "When will the cherry blossoms bloom? When will they bloom in the small village in the mountains? When will the cherry blossoms release their fragrance? When will the cherry blossoms fly when the laughing seven-year-old children play? When will the singing seven-year-old children fly? When will the cherry blossoms wither when the child falls asleep? When the dead seven-year-old child ascends to heaven..."
This was obviously a scary nursery rhyme, and the little guy was trembling all over. The more he listened to it, the more restless he became in his sleep, and he suddenly jumped up.
"Yeah yeah!!!!!!"
"Brother Ming, what are you doing? You promised to put me to sleep."
The little guy had tears in his eyes, as if he was about to cry in the next second.
Lin Mingjiao suddenly held down his head, then put his other hand to his lips, making a silent gesture.
Later, Lin Ming said via voice transmission: "We can't sleep tonight, we have to go out to find out what's going on."
Gulu gulu gulu...
The little guy swallowed three big mouthfuls of saliva in a row, and he couldn't help but feel nervous.
He clearly remembered what the shopkeeper said an hour ago.
"You can't go out at night, and you definitely can't go on the streets. There will be a parade of hundreds of ghosts at night."
After the shopkeeper said this, he turned into a ghost in front of the little guy and went to the street for a parade.
It is conceivable that the scene at that time had a huge psychological impact on the little guy.
"Can we talk about it tomorrow morning?" The little guy felt aggrieved.
Lin Ming smiled silently and looked at him with gentle eyes, "Sister Qinghuang and Sister Wusheng are very good to you. We'd better find them as soon as possible."
"But the person who set up the stall before said that as long as we live quietly in the inn, we will meet the person we are looking for later."
"We have just arrived, and we have arrived in such a strange place. Who would suddenly give us a hint? Is the hint reasonable? Is it a deliberate misleading or a well-intentioned reminder? Based on the information we currently have, we cannot Judgment. What if, I mean what if, he sets a trap for us, and just staying in the room will lead to death? "
Lin Ming asked a series of questions, and the little guy's eyes were full of question marks. He was completely confused.
"I, I'm not sure, maybe it's up to you, Brother Ming, to make the decision."
Lin Ming nodded, "Then just listen to me. Wait for the opportunity, go out of the room and take a look, and see what the Hundred Ghosts Night Walk refers to."
"Well, now I finally know what it means to sacrifice one's life to accompany a gentleman."
The little guy covered his eyes, his long snow-white tail wrapped around his body and head, and then his whole body hid between the quilt and the pillow.
The impassioned words of sacrificing one's life to accompany a gentleman actually became particularly cowardly to him, which really made people want to laugh.
Lin Ming burst into laughter, then saw the little guy's eyes and apologized hastily: "I'm sorry, I couldn't help it."
The little guy's face was full of resentment, and then he lowered his head, saying that he would not talk to Lin Ming.
However, its little paws were extremely honest and gently hooked the hem of Lin Ming's clothes, fearing that Lin Ming would accidentally disappear and leave him here alone.
That means everything is over and all the liver and gallbladder are gone!
Just as the little guy was conjuring images of his misfortune in his mind, Lin Ming's mind's eye expanded at full strength and he noticed something unusual.
Generally speaking, his inner eye can cover an area of 100 feet in radius, and this range was still correct just now.
Except for the border of the nameless town, there are no obstacles in other places, so he can check it as he likes.
However, after chatting with the little guy, the area covered by his inner eye seemed to be compressed and controlled by something, shrinking inward inch by inch.
Unstoppable, uncancelable, unavoidable...
Not long after, Lin Ming discovered that his perception was limited to within 10 feet, which meant he could only detect the interior of the inn.
Apart from that, it was as if everything no longer existed, as if the entire town outside had become a ghost.
Lin Ming took a careful look at the little guy, and thought for a moment before grabbing it in his hand to avoid anything happening again later.
The little guy felt the warmth of Lin Ming's palm and was about to ask, but Lin Ming stuffed him into his arms and told him: "Don't ask any more questions now. There is a small problem. I will continue to check."
After finishing his words, Lin Ming closed his eyes, and all his perceptions were closed one by one, leaving only his inner eye in the end.
A divine inscription of Guanzi appeared between his eyebrows, and a divine inscription of Jingzi rose above his head.
Under the superposition of the two special effects, according to the usual situation, the perception ability of the mind's eye will be restored to at least half.
However, this time it was not as usual.
"Did you really encounter an existence in the realm of creation?"
Lin Ming sat calmly on the edge of the bed, making a slight fist with his right hand and pressing the fountain against his chin.
Apart from this situation, he couldn't think of any reason why his perception would be restricted.
At this time, there were actually many more footsteps in the inn.
It was chaotic and noisy, coming from all directions. Some seemed to be in adjacent rooms, others were still in the lobby, and some were in the kitchen...
The sources are mixed and confusing, and the specifics cannot be identified.
Or maybe it's just that the whole inn suddenly had a lot more people!
If you want to know this, you can see it with your inner eye, but Lin Ming's inner eye failed again at this time.
There was obviously nothing within the shrouded area, not even a ghost, let alone a human being.
