The four of them groped their way through the thick fog.

The fog was so thick that they couldn't see much. The thick fog made them unable to tell whether it was day or night.

Zhou Fang's daily playboy behavior played a key role. Their mobile phones were either broken during the escape or ran out of power. The second-hand luxury watch Zhou Fang barely saved became their only prop to tell the time.

It's one forty in the evening.

They walked in this thick fog for three and a half hours. During this period, Li Meng knocked out Shen Lin five times because of his gestures, but nothing else happened.

Thoughts are really weird things. When you strongly tell yourself not to think about something, it just drifts past uncontrollably. Shen Lin almost got caught at one point, but fortunately Li Meng took action in time.

He did not dare to tell these three people the murder pattern. They were now shrouded in fear and had no intention of thinking about other things. On the contrary, if he broke it, he might kill them.

"Linzi, me, where are we going?"

Li Meng followed Shen Lin with his tired body. He usually did not exercise for such a long time. His body was already fat and he could not drink water for several hours. He felt that his whole body was about to be hollowed out.

Zhou Fang and Sun Yue also looked over expectantly. They strongly hoped to hear a destination from Shen Lin, and that destination was reliable enough to increase their hope of survival.

But they are bound to be disappointed.

"Just follow me, there's so much nonsense."

Shen Lin scolded.

Of course he couldn't say it, because he himself didn't know where he could go by walking so aimlessly.

He wanted to go to Zhang Ming's location, but the direction he knew in the ghost realm was no longer the original location. They could only walk aimlessly, trying to find an ideal path.

In other words, Shen Lin is now like a scary gambler with a high probability of losing money. He doesn't even know how to bet or how to gamble. He only knows how to win. But judging from the current situation, this does not mean anything. effect.

"Wait, there's something." Shen Lin stopped and shouted.

A group of people, about seven or eight, mostly girls, appeared in the thick fog. They were all in a sorry state. It seemed that long-term fatigue had numbed their nerves. They could only see despair and survival on their faces, but not much fear. .

There were still people alive. Shen Lin was surprised. The ghost didn't try to seduce them. Or maybe they were like these three people, too afraid to think.

"Little brother, do you have anything to eat?"

The other person spoke first. He was a tall and thin middle-aged man who seemed to occupy a leadership position in this small team.

Anhe Community is one of the key communities built in the city center of Daxia, with tens of thousands of residents. Shen Lin's parents have both died, and he has a withdrawn personality. In the past three years, the neighbors upstairs and downstairs may not recognize them all, let alone other people in the community. Residents.

"No."

Shen Lin responded, his eyes quickly scanning the group of people, a strange look on his face.

He felt something was wrong with this group of people, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

"Little brother, do you want to come together? There are more people to take care of."

The tall, lanky man in the leadership position on the other side spoke kindly and invited Shen Lin and others to join the group.

Zhou Fang's expression changed. He definitely didn't want to join. With more people, strength and danger.

At present, it seems that there is no essential connection between the number of people and whether they can fight the monster, and they have followed Shen Lin until now, which at least proves that Shen Lin is right and that he has a way to survive.

In desperate times, few people will not be selfish.

Zhou Fang strongly hopes not to join the group, because in his opinion, this group of people has nothing to do with being a dragster.

But he couldn't influence Shen Lin's thoughts, because Shen Lin was the one who made the decision.

"No, thank you."

After Shen Lin agreed, he started to move forward. Zhou Fangchang breathed a sigh of relief and quickly followed.

The figures of several people quickly disappeared into the mist.

"How much strength do you still have?"

Shen Lin asked with a solemn expression.

"Okay, okay."

The three of them seemed to sense something from this tone, and spoke tremblingly.

"Later, listen to my instructions and follow me closely. If I say run, just run. Don't hesitate." Shen Lin said.

Several people nodded like garlic, even if they didn't have much strength now, they still had to run for their lives.

"Kick, kick, kick..."

The strange footsteps sounded like a cry from the netherworld, and also like the prelude of someone seeking a life.

Shen Lin's eyes narrowed slightly. He quietly listened to the approaching footsteps, his breath stuck in his throat, ready to speak out at any time.

When the footsteps became so dense that it was frightening, Shen Lin shouted.

"run!"

The four of them moved forward in response, not even daring to look back.

Li Meng was already overdrawn, and he was really using up all his energy to run again. He didn't know what was behind him, and in his imagination it seemed like a fierce ghost was chasing him.

The four people who were exhausted were not as fast as expected.

Their running speed was like a turtle crawling compared to normal, but it played a key role, because the sound of footsteps behind them did become smaller as they ran, until they disappeared.

When they collapsed on the ground panting, a golden object appeared in front of them.

"gold!"

Shen Lin's trembling words revealed surprise.

It is known that most things are ineffective against the horror of resuscitation, except for the one thing that always works.

gold!

Of course, gold itself has no offensive or supernatural properties.

If ghosts are electric currents, then gold is an insulator.

Psychic powers cannot affect gold, nor can they penetrate gold.

The amount of gold in front of me is very large, shaped like a coffin.

Shen Lin did not act rashly, he began to think.

What does the golden coffin that appears in the ghost world mean?

Is it the material reserves specially prepared by Zhang Ming to solve this incident, which are stored here but not used at all?

Or is it that the so-called support ghost controller from the headquarters has arrived, but something unexpected happened. Is this golden coffin his masterpiece?

Or was it the material support from the headquarters, out of compassion, that in order to keep some residents alive, they prepared these coffins, brought them in by the ghost masters, and placed them randomly, which was equivalent to reminding them that there was still hope?

The coffin was open, and there seemed to be a strange small box placed inside. Inside the box seemed to be a controller, somewhat similar to a game controller with a screen.

Before Shen Lin could think more, footsteps came from behind again. He gritted his teeth, called up the slumped people, and pointed at the coffin.

"Go in, Fatty first, then Zhou Fang, then me, and finally Sun Yue."

The three of them were stunned, not quite understanding what they were doing.

"What are you waiting for? Are you waiting to die! Get in! Quick!"

Shen Lin roared angrily, and the footsteps behind him became increasingly dense, and the three of them understood.

They were like stacking sandbags, one on top of the other, until the coffin lids were closed and the four people could not be accommodated. The posture was very inelegant, and the whole environment was even unbearable in the past.

But this is paradise for them now.

The sound of tight gongs and drums swayed around the golden coffin, and they could almost imagine the scene outside.

A large number of things, whether human or ghost, were constantly rotating around the golden coffin. It seemed that there was no way to get rid of this thing.

I don’t know how long it took before the surrounding sounds disappeared.

Li Meng spoke tremblingly.

"Lin Zi, what's going on?"

Shen Lin breathed a sigh of relief and responded.

"Gold can isolate supernatural abilities, but it can only isolate us. We are temporarily safe now."

"Then, how soon can we get out?"

Zhou Fang was overjoyed to hear that it was safe and asked quickly.

"I don't know, I don't even know what's going on with this golden coffin, but for now it's at least a good thing."

Shen Lin responded.

They got a breather, and Shen Lin was now thinking about the next step.

"Is it that thing just now?"

Sun Yue asked. The girl was so frightened by what she just said that she burst into tears and tried not to make a sound.

"I don't know, probably not, more like the group of people we met just now." Shen Lin said.

"What? You're crazy! How long has it been and they are still torturing us? Aren't they afraid of death?" Li Meng and Zhou Fang were furious at the same time. They thought it was a ghost, but it turned out to be a human. If they had known better, they would have run away later. Kill those bastards.

"How do you know they are human?" Shen Lin sighed.

"What? They are not human beings? They look quite normal." The three of them were confused. They were even a little confused about the current situation. In other words, they seemed to have been in a state of confusion starting from tonight.

"How many times have I told you, don't use your common sense or the ghosts you have learned about in various legends to understand the horrors of today. They are completely different from what you imagined."

"There are many types of ghost realms. Although there may be slight differences in abilities, there is only one core point, which is that in the ghost realm, you have to see whatever the owner of the ghost realm wants you to see."

"Your senses, your cognition, maybe even your mind."

"The group of people in front of you may be normal human students. In fact, they may be walking corpses that have been dead for a long time. Even the conversations with them may be illusions presented by the ghost realm." Shen Linyan road.

"Then why didn't they attack us right away?" Li Meng asked.

"I don't know. It might be a fixed pattern, or it might be a coincidence that we met them. It's also possible that their original target was not us, and our encounter just made them change their targets." Shen Lin said.

There was so much speculation that he could only act with the utmost caution.

He made careful plans for the worst in everything. Maybe those people were students. Maybe he felt something was wrong because his nerves were sensitive under high pressure. The footsteps that followed came from another wave of terror.

In this case, you can't be too careful.

Silence began, and they were very tired. Li Meng even felt sleepy in this environment after hearing that it was safe.

Shen Lin began to fiddle with the handle in his hand. There was a switch on the back of it, and he turned it on with a flick of the finger.

He started to try to maneuver with difficulty with one hand.

In the narrow space, a bright light appeared on the small screen of the handle, and then patterns appeared.

That seems to be a map!
