If other people said these words, the two of them would most likely suspect that the other party had seen it wrong or remembered it wrongly. However, the two of them had been through the Blood Gate with Ning Qiushui and were deeply impressed by Ning Qiushui's caution and attentiveness. The other party would definitely not You would make this mistake intentionally!
"In other words...are the previous rumors in the city true?"
"Did the residents who came here for a walk really see ghosts on the mountain at night?"
When they thought of this, the two of them had goosebumps one after another, which they couldn't even get rid of.
Has the ghost behind the Blood Gate appeared in the real world?
Doesn't that mean that their real world will become the same terrifying and chaotic world as behind the Blood Gate?
Perhaps they were people cursed by the Blood Gate and had already witnessed various horrific phenomena behind the Blood Gate.
But they never thought that one day the real world would become the same as the Blood Gate world!
The steps up the mountain began to become heavy and a little uneasy.
Certain truths would be better off never revealed.
"It didn't catch up. Let's go. I also made other signs. Let's go up the mountain and take a look..."
Ning Qiushui's tone became particularly calm.
He walked at the front, climbing along the path up the mountain, strictly checking the signs he left and comparing them one by one with his memories from the day.
Soon, Ning Qiushui discovered that the further up he went, the more "Human Face Trees" appeared.
He didn't even need to use the light source of the flashlight to remind him later, the two of them could discover it by themselves.
But fortunately, the Human Face Tree doesn't really have a human face. It's just that the cracks on the trunk look like a human face, but combined with the darkness of the night, it looks extremely weird.
"They...shouldn't move, right?"
Bai Xiaoxiao's voice was full of uncertainty.
The two just agreed without giving her an accurate answer.
After walking for about ten minutes, Ning Qiushui stopped and carefully illuminated the surrounding area with a strong flashlight, and finally said:
"It's not the tree's problem..."
The two looked at him.
"It's not the tree's problem?"
"But there is indeed something wrong with those trees. We went up the mountain during the day, and I have noticed some places."
Meng Jun frowned, and Ning Qiushui continued:
"There's something wrong with the mountain."
He pointed to the road they came from, and pointed to a special sign on a big stone beside the road.
"According to our speed, it would take at most ten minutes to walk during the day, but it took us almost half an hour to get there at night."
“This mountain is weird.”
"Judging from the time spent and the details on the road, it has become at least three times larger, but our senses don't seem to notice anything..."
"Standing at the bottom of the mountain, it still seems so big."
"There's something in the mountains... that deceives our eyes."
"Those trees on the road probably didn't appear suddenly. They were originally growing on this mountain. It's just that we can't see them during the day."
Ning Qiushui deduced from the details that it was a problem with the mountains, not the trees.
He pointed to the top of the mountain, which was almost obscured by thick fog.
"Did you find it?"
"We've been walking for such a long time, but the top of the mountain is still so far away from us, and it's almost unchanged."
"If it had been daytime, we would have reached the top of the mountain by now."
"And this is the last mark I made. Its original location was below the top of the mountain, less than 50 meters away from the deep pit of the stone monument."
"The pit is very close to the top of the mountain."
"But now, it's on the mountainside."
The strange situation made both of them feel like they were having a wrong dream.
"It's really evil..."
Bai Xiaoxiao breathed out, and suddenly seemed to see something. She shined the beam of the flashlight behind Ning Qiushui, and her pupils suddenly narrowed.
"Qiu Shui, Brother Jun, look!"
The two of them looked in the direction of Bai Xiaoxiao's finger. At the end of a dirt road covered by fog, many black figures appeared, heading towards the top of the mountain.
"It's so late, why is there anyone on the mountain?"
Meng Jun's voice was cold.
"I'm afraid it may not be a human being."
Ning Qiushui looked serious, gestured to the two of them, and followed them slowly.
They were here to take risks, and they were already prepared in their hearts without too much hesitation.
As they slowly walked up the path for a long time, they barely got closer to the black shadows, and then they realized that the black shadows turned out to be paper figures one after another!
Their bodies are light and thin, and although their feet touch the ground, they are not so much walking on their feet as they are just floating very close to the ground.
These paper figures are carrying a large blood-red sedan, with four people at the front and back. There are two paper figures on the side who light two blood lanterns. There are two paper figures in front of the sedan, holding gongs and hammers made of paper. Step, knock once, there is a metal hitting sound.
"What's going on?"
The three people felt that something was not right about the situation, so they stopped temporarily and did not continue to follow the blood sedan.
I don't know why, but whenever they get closer to the blood sedan, they feel an extremely uneasy feeling in their hearts.
It seems that what is sitting in the sedan chair is something very dangerous...
When she was the closest before, Ning Qiushui could even hear the heartbeat coming from the blood sedan.
Very heavy heartbeat.
Ning Qiushui didn't know what kind of thing could have such a loud heartbeat, but what was certain was that it was definitely not a human being!
He suppressed his curiosity and stopped himself from thinking about who was sitting in the blood sedan.
"I'm starting to regret it a little bit. If I had known there would be such an evil party tonight, I should have brought the bearded man with me..."
He complained like a joke, and when he turned around, his expression suddenly changed!
Because he found a paper man holding a lantern standing behind them at some point, smiling solemnly at them.
Its face was pale, with round cheeks, and its split mouth was red.
Even under the flashlight, they could see red liquid dripping from the corners of the paper man's mouth.
"Are you also the guests invited by Lady Bone Lady?"
The paper man actually slowly spat out a sentence.
The three of them stood still, and no one answered his words.
The coldness had invaded their bone marrow at some point. They wanted to slap the ghost weapon on the paper man directly, but their reason stopped them.
They don't know whether the ghost weapon in their hands is useful in the outside world.
Once the ghost weapon is useless, and they anger the weird thing in front of them, they are afraid of disaster.
When the three people didn't reply, the paper man not only didn't let them go, but his voice became even sharper.
"Are you also the guests invited by Lady Bone Lady?"
Question again.
But this time, the smile on the paper man's face became much stronger, so strong that it was abnormal...
