death

Chapter 146
Looking at the barren village in Beiyu gradually showing its appearance in front of us, the rows of old houses are particularly neat, and it looks majestic from a distance.

The only pity is that every house is very dilapidated. Except for the stone frame, there are no doors and windows. At first glance, there is no life, and you don't need to think much to know that it is a deserted village.

Many houses are covered with vines, and if you take a closer look, they are green and lush, which is also a good view.

As the sun rose slowly, the sun became more and more bright, and even a rainbow hung over the village.

Nangong Xiong sighed and said, "If we hadn't come here to solve the case, I might have regarded this barren mountain ghost village as a paradise."

I said, me too.

Nangong Xiong sneered and said with a "hum": "Can you express some meaningful opinions? You know how to ask questions every day, or you just nod and say 'hmm', or say 'me too', what else can you do?" ?"

I said with some embarrassment: "Or let's go to the village first, and go into the village to check. There should be no clues about the Jade Emperor Temple."

Nangong Xiong did not continue to hurt me, but nodded.

We walked along a path next to the Jade Emperor Temple to the green hills. The entrance of the path was where the ghost team disappeared last night. Obviously, the ghost team also entered Beiyu Desolate Village last night.

This path is very rugged. It was just a dirt road at the beginning, and it was a bit slippery because of the rain, but after a few minutes of walking, it turned into a bluestone road, and the bluestone slabs are very flat, walking on it is like walking Like a trail in a park.

If the entrance with the stone tablet is the front door of the village, then where we are now is the back door of the village.

When I got closer to these stone houses, I felt that these stone houses can no longer be described as broken, and have reached the point of crumbling. Many stone walls are crooked, but although those walls are crooked, none of them are crooked. Fallen.

In addition, this village is very cloudy, so heavy that once I enter the village, I can't help but get goose bumps.

I took a deep breath, and then used it to check the old stone houses in front of us.

After some investigation, I found that there were no active ghosts in these houses except that they were a little darker.

After entering the village, Nangong Xie and I became vigilant. I took out the dagger and established contact with the snack guy, ready to call it out to help at any time.

Nangong Xiong directly sacrificed the Xingyu Bow, and there was a long blue arrow on the bowstring. It seemed that she was ready to attack at any time.

After walking a few steps into the village, I started to feel less afraid, because we checked almost one-third of the houses in the village, and none of the houses had a ghost.

So I was going to tell Nangong Yuzhang whether to speed up the search, but before I could say a word, a little girl appeared at an intersection in front of us. She was standing there in an ancient costume, and then Stared at me blankly.

My hairs stand on end when she sees it.

But I am not weak now, and soon the feeling of horror was suppressed by me, I looked at the little girl and said, "Who are you!"

As soon as I finished asking, the little girl suddenly turned around and disappeared around the corner of a street, and Nangong Yuzhang and I hurried to that street corner.

I looked along the street where the little girl turned, and she had disappeared.

Nangong Xie's eyes instantly glowed blue, and she immediately started using the Eye of the Galaxy. After she opened the Eye of the Galaxy, she walked in front, and I followed behind.

After turning a few more turns, we came to the front of a stone courtyard. This stone courtyard is the largest courtyard in Beiyu Village. Judging from the size of the courtyard, this stone courtyard is divided into three entrances. The first entrance is the main house and the East and West room.

We entered the first yard and searched, but found nothing.

All the houses are empty, without even the most basic furnishings, exactly the same as other dilapidated houses in the village.

Seeing this, I couldn't help thinking, if something happened to the people in the village suddenly, then the furnishings in their homes shouldn't disappear, even if it's been too long and broken, some traces should be left. Yes, but there is not even the slightest sign of having been furnished in any of the houses in this village.

Could it be said that before the accident, these people moved all the things in the house, and they moved them clean? It's impossible to move all the furniture away, right?
Thinking of this, I expressed the doubts in my heart to Nangong Xiong.

She also nodded and said: "That's right, unless other people came after something happened to this village, and these people evacuated the village, but it's unlikely, since this village has become a ghost village, Then the people who come here may not be able to move all their things so easily, this matter is indeed strange."

Saying that, Nangong Xiong took me through the first yard to the second yard, and built a house on the left side of the corridor leading to the second yard. There were stone pots and stoves in it, but it was too big All the pots and kitchen utensils disappeared, and the stove was dark, which showed that people in the yard used to cook here.

Through that aisle, we came to the second courtyard.

When we entered the yard for the second time, we found that there were far fewer weeds in this yard than the one we entered the first time. The rooms here still had no furnishings and no ghosts.

The second entrance yard and the third entrance yard are a very narrow aisle, and only two people can walk in parallel. If you want to carry some larger objects, you can't pass through here, which is too inconvenient.

When we entered the third courtyard, we found that the innermost part of the courtyard was a back door, which directly led to another street. No wonder the aisle was so narrow, so there was a back door here!

The third courtyard was still empty, and we went around in it without gaining anything.

I asked Nangong Xizang: "Did that little girl just enter this courtyard?"

Nangong Xiong said: "It was there just now, but it's gone now. I even lost it with the Eye of the Galaxy. That little thing is probably integrated with the Yin energy here. Her hidden supernatural power is also very powerful. If she treats her If she doesn't move in one place, I will never be able to detect her from a hundred meters away."

"In other words, that little thing is not within a hundred meters of us now."

It turned out that I lost my follower, and I was suddenly a little depressed. If we "caught" that little girl, maybe we could directly ask her about the situation in this deserted village in Beiyu.

When we came out of this case in Beiyu Desolate Village, we naturally cleared all the ghosts in the village and turned it into a natural desolate village without any threats, so I took that little girl as my first target in my heart.

Nangong Yuzhang continued: "The little girl took me around the village just now, except for these three courtyards, she has never entered a house, so there must be something special here, let's look for it carefully. "

I asked Nangong Yuzhang: "You mean that little girl is giving us hints on purpose, is she helping us?"

Nangong Xiong said, "It's possible!"

I asked rhetorically: "Then what if she deliberately led us in because this is a trap, and she wants to harm us?"

Nangong Xiong frowned, then glanced at the sky, and I followed suit. When I looked up, I found that the rainbow that was hanging in the sky slowly disappeared, and then the sun also disappeared. , The originally clear sky suddenly became gloomy.

"Crack!"

In an instant, there was a bright flash in the sky, and the lightning pierced the sky, scaring me straight away.

Nangong Xiong bent his bow and set his arrow, aiming the long arrow directly at the sky.

I asked curiously, "What are you doing, Hou Yi shoots the sun, you want to shoot mines?"

Nangong Qiang stared at me and said: "Shut up, what do you know, there is something on the lightning, big thing!"

Seeing Nangong Xiong's nervous face, I was also terrified. There could be something above the thunder and lightning, so I looked up at the sky.

"Rumble..."

There was a rush of thunder, and in the dark sky, I couldn't see anything at all.

I whispered to Nangong Xiong, where is that thing.

Nangong Xun said: "When the thunder strikes, look carefully, behind the thunder and lightning!"

As soon as Nangong Yucheng finished speaking, there was another bright flash in the sky, and the zigzag thunder and lightning filled the sky with "click", I looked carefully behind the lightning and there was really a huge blue shadow swimming. Things are at least one-third the size of a village, hundreds of times bigger than the double-headed pythons I've seen!
Seeing that huge blue shadow, I couldn't close my mouth straight away.

"Rumble..."

A few seconds after the bright flash disappeared, there was another burst of thunder, and I was suddenly a little scared. What is it that is so big and can swim through the thunder and lightning? I only saw a huge blue The shadow, but can't tell what it looks like.

The sound of thunder woke me up from my astonishment. I looked at the black sky and asked Nangong, "Do you know what that big guy is?"

Nangong Xiong shook his head and said: "For the time being, I don't know yet. There are many giants that can fly in the sky in this world. I can't say which one, but one thing can be confirmed, that thing has a strong yin energy. , it may not be a living thing, it may be a dead soul, a ghost or something like that!"

I asked curiously: "Aren't dead souls and ghosts afraid of thunder and lightning, and dare to walk among them!?"

Nangong Qiang glanced at me and said: "Didn't you realize that the bright flash just now did not belong to our Yang Lei, but Yin Lei, which belongs to the underworld."

I asked curiously, "Is the Underworld an independent space like the Upper Realm?"

Nangong Xiong said: "The underworld is a space, but it is not independent. It is closely related to this world. If the underworld disappears, the space in this world will also collapse. If the space in this world collapses, the underworld will collapse." It will also disappear."

"Our upper realm is different. It is a completely independent space. Although it is related to this realm, the collapse of one realm will not lead to the disappearance of the other realm."

Speaking of this, Nangong Xiong said anxiously: "At this time, I still have the heart to tell you this. Let's leave this deserted village in Beiyu first. The two of us may not be the opponent of that big guy!"

After finishing speaking, Nangong Xiong led me to run out from the back door of this yard.

"Crack!"

At this time, another bright flash appeared in the sky, and the shadow dancing in the thunder and lightning appeared again...
