No wonder, I suddenly realized that Lonnie had not been found since I left the inn, and now she suddenly appeared in this ghost gate.
It turns out that she has attached her soul to me!
"Ni, thank you."
I couldn't help but hold Lonnie's hand and said with some emotion.
"Thank you for what,"
Lonnie said nonchalantly: "It is my duty to find out the truth of the matter and rescue those townspeople. I can't let you put yourself in danger."
I didn't say anything, I just held Lonnie's hand tighter.
With Lonnie by my side, I couldn't help but feel more confident and my steps became lighter.
"Xiaoyi, Xiaoyi..."
Not long after walking, I vaguely heard someone calling my name in front of me.
This voice was old and distant, but it made me feel inexplicably familiar. Moreover, no one had called the name Xiaoyi for many years...
Yes, I can be sure that this is my grandfather's voice!
Because my mother was nearly forty when she gave birth to me, and my grandfather was already over seventy at that time.
Therefore, my grandfather passed away when I was just four or five years old.
In my few memories, my grandfather has always been an amiable little old man. He is a carpenter. Although he is old, he always accepts the requests of the villagers.
When he went out to work, he would often put me in a small backpack on his back and take me along the streets.
Before, in the main hall, I just made nonsense, saying that my grandfather committed suicide by drowning himself in the river, just as an excuse to let the purple-robed magician take me into the City of Death.
However, I never expected that I could really hear grandpa’s voice deep in this ghost gate!
Gradually, a figure emerged, standing less than ten meters away from me.
The rickety figure, the gray beard, the kind smile, everything is so familiar!
"Grandpa, is it really you?"
I was so emotional that there was a tremor in my voice.
"Xiaoyi, it's me."
Grandpa looked at me with a smile on his face.
"I haven't seen you for so many years. I didn't expect you to be so old."
Looking at this familiar face, I couldn't help but burst into tears. I remembered the scene when my grandfather took me walking through the streets when I was a child, and the scene when he held me in his arms and counted the stars on summer nights...
"Xiaoyi, come here and let grandpa hug you."
Grandpa Zhang said and opened his arms to me.
I nodded, looked at Grandpa, and walked towards him without knowing it.
"Cheng Yi, don't go there, don't go there!"
I seemed to hear someone shouting loudly around me, seeming to prevent me from getting close to my grandpa.
However, that sound was just a wave in the waves and soon disappeared.
One step, two steps, I came closer to my grandfather, completely immersed in the excitement of meeting again after a long separation.
boom!
At this moment, I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my forehead, as if someone had hit me hard.
In an instant, I started to wake up completely. When I turned around, I saw Lonnie standing in front of me with an anxious face.
"Ni, you..."
"Xiao Chengzi, you have been bewitched. That is not your grandfather!"
Lonnie said loudly to me.
I reacted and quickly looked back, only to see that my "grandpa" was still standing there. Cracks began to appear on his body. Within a few seconds, he turned into a ball of powder in front of me and disappeared. !
"What, what's going on?"
I couldn't help being shocked, and looked at Lonnie with a puzzled face.
"This is an evil thing transformed from underworld energy and other breaths. Although I don't know the specific name, I can be sure that once you come into contact with it, there will be endless troubles!"
Lonnie looked at me and explained solemnly.
Although I already knew that the person who disappeared just now was not my grandfather, I still felt a sense of sadness as I watched it disappear in front of me.
At the same time, I also refreshed my understanding of the purple-robed magician again.
Just based on a reason I made up before, I was able to explore the deepest desire in my heart and transform into my grandfather's figure deep in the ghost gate. If Lonnie hadn't interrupted in time, I almost got caught!
I have to say that this purple-robed magician is definitely more powerful than I imagined.
Taking a long breath, I stabilized my mind and continued walking forward along the original path.
After a while, my eyes gradually opened up, and I could vaguely see a wide road extending in all directions. Rows of magnificent buildings stood on both sides of the road, which was spectacular.
It seems that we have entered a large-scale modern city.
Could it be that this is the legendary City of Death in vain?
I looked around, looking around curiously.
Those buildings are hidden in the haze, and there is no living thing around, not even a ghost. As far as the eye can see, there is only death!
"Here, it seems that the city is not in vain!"
After observing for a while, Lonnie said in a deep voice.
"When I was very young, I heard my father talk about the situation in the City of Wasted Death. It is said that the City of Wasted Death is filled with ghosts and ghosts. But there is only death here."
"Obviously, we're in the wrong place!"
I deeply agree with Lonnie's view. So, the purple-robed magician deliberately pointed me to the wrong path and led me into an unknown space?
"Let's go and take a look inside first."
With Lonnie by my side, I didn't have to worry about not being able to get out, so I spoke boldly.
Lonnie had no objection to this, so we strolled in and walked towards the depths of this unknown space.
As I was walking, I suddenly heard a scream coming from above my head.
I suddenly raised my head and saw a woman in a white dress leaning out of the window on the top floor of a building opposite. Then she jumped down!
boom!
I only heard a muffled sound, and the woman in the white dress fell on the road in front of Lonnie and me. Her head was down, and a stream of white liquid overflowed from her head. The road below her body was stained red with blood. The scene was extremely bloody!
Before I could recover from the shock, the woman's joints suddenly slipped, making a creaking sound, and she slowly stood up from the ground.
One side of her legs was bent at 90 degrees, and one arm drooped down, revealing the dense white bones inside. Although her face was stained with blood, it was relatively well preserved, and she walked towards us with a sinister smile!
I have seen many big scenes. After the initial shock, I quickly calmed down. Looking at the approaching female ghost, for some reason, I suddenly felt familiar!
I seem to have seen her somewhere!
