So after that,

That’s what’s happening now.

This is how the current scene came about.

Of course, Li Re would not tell the other party these things directly - in response to the man's question, he just paced in the sea of ​​fire and said calmly:

"In a supernatural place, anything can happen, right?"

"As for how I found out you were following me...I was just guessing."

"And you said I lied to you - the truth is actually the opposite. You lied to me, didn't you? You never thought that I could really take the 'ghost bride' away from here. All you wanted was for me to stay in this ghost town and become the 'ghost bride's' husband - as a 'living person'!"

...Li Rexin said that if he was really an ordinary person, he would have been caught by the female ghost as soon as he entered the ghost town.

The middle-aged man was stunned again after hearing his words and then shook his head.

He whispered: "It seems that I underestimated you..."

"You don't just look down on me, you simply don't take me seriously!" Before the man finished speaking, he was interrupted by Li Re. He did not intend to give the man a chance to show off, but continued to speak on his own: "I see that you seem to feel guilty now, but more of awe. You still seem to think that sending me to the ghost town is not a wrong choice - is it just a sacrifice that you have to make for the overall situation?"

The middle-aged man opened his mouth, but the words were stuck in his throat and he couldn't utter them.

His expression was slightly surprised and looked a little funny under the dim green light of the fire.

Li Re grinned again and said, "But speaking of the overall situation, in this ghost town, there is only the so-called 'seal', right?"

The seal of the ghost town that Feng Ling had mentioned to him.

After the bell rang, it became loose, attracting a group of ghosts to attack the seal of the 'Yin Yang Road', the only passage out of the ghost town.

"So it seems that the place where the 'ghost bride', or the place where the ghost bride 'got married', is the inside of this seal."

Li Re sighed, used this as an inference, and made the next guess. Standing in the center of the sea of ​​fire, he said that it was a good decision to lure this person out - it actually allowed him to explore so many truths about the ghost town in one go.

no doubt.

At this moment, Li Re has thought through many confusions that he had had before or that have only just emerged.

The middle-aged man finally came to his senses.

He exhaled heavily.

Nod again.

He said in a deep voice: "...As you said, I really underestimated you and didn't take you seriously!"

"But there's nothing I can do about it."

"The ghost town has existed for thirty years. The seal has been in operation for thirty years and has reached its limit. If we want to keep it going, we need to bring people born on a yin year, yin month, yin day, yin hour and yin moment into the ghost town, let them marry the 'ghost bride' as living people, and then live with the ghost bride in the ghost town as living people for seventy-seven forty-nine days—"

"Only in this way can the seal be extended, so that the thousands of evil spirits sealed in the ghost town will not bring disaster to the world!"

"So this is why you sacrificed me?" Li Re raised his eyebrows slightly, thinking that the birth date of 'myself' in the personal plot was quite coincidental.

The middle-aged man was silent for a moment. He did not feel any regret, but just felt a little guilty towards the man in front of him.

Anyway.

The Li Re in front of us are all victims.

Just when the middle-aged man thought that Li Re would directly reprimand him.

Li Re laughed again.

He whispered, "Besides, your approach is too inefficient."

"Maintaining the seal is nothing but a temporary solution. The longer the evil spirit exists and the more resentment it accumulates, the stronger its instinct to kill will become, until the day comes when it is no longer possible to maintain the seal."

"So instead of continuing to maintain this seal, I would say - it would be better to just remove the seal and get rid of all the ghosts here..."

"No, you don't know the seriousness of the matter at all!" Li Re was interrupted by the middle-aged man before he finished speaking. His brows were furrowed and his eyes were like lightning, showing that he was extremely determined: "The seal here cannot be unlocked, and the ghosts here cannot be solved..."

"why?"

Li Re looked directly at the man and spoke slowly and slowly, "Is it because the seal here is too special? Do you think I can't break the seal, or do you think I can't deal with the evil spirits here?"

“You don’t understand at all... I admit that I deceived you this time, and I will be punished for it, but I will never believe your lies that are impossible to come true--” The middle-aged man’s expression became increasingly heavy, and he avoided answering Li Re’s questions.

Li Re raised his lips and smiled, but he seemed not to care.

He opened his mouth, as if practicing his voice, and then said, "It's 'time', right?"

The middle-aged man's pupils shrank again!

"It seems I guessed it right."

Li Re tilted his head and squinted his eyes, smiling more and more: "The key to sealing the evil spirit lies in the sound of the bell——"

"The evil ghost appears in the sound of the bell and disappears in the sound of the bell. This obviously conforms to a certain time 'law'." Li Re said confidently.

"Are you testing me!" The middle-aged man's expression became increasingly gloomy.

"You guessed right, I was testing you, or to put it bluntly, I was using your reaction to verify my reasoning - in front of me, you can't hide as long as you have even a little bit of guilt in your heart!" Li Re pointed to the spiritual fire in his eyes and said so, but what he was actually talking about was his own psychic perception. This perception might make mistakes when facing the unknown spirits, but it is still very sharp when facing people!

His mind was indeed full of 'guesses'.

If not for this, he wouldn't have deliberately 'led' this person out!

Isn't this what 'NPC' is used for?

Explore ghost towns,

Find patterns,

Touching danger.

All these things that Li Re experienced could not be achieved without the "confirmation" of this person.

not to mention.

"You tricked me into this ghost town. How can you not pay the price?"

"And, if I'm not mistaken, the seal of this ghost town is related to you - it might have been created by your ancestors, otherwise you wouldn't know this place so well and care so much about it!"

Where the spiritual fire is burning with a crackling sound.

Li Re's paced figure dragged extremely long in the light and shadow.

His voice echoed even more like a murderous ghost.

While speaking, Li Re even opened his hands and said calmly and gloomily: "Of course, if you feel unhappy and don't want the secrets of the ghost town that you are guarding to be discovered by me, you can also try to kill me here."

"After all, you yourself possess extremely strong psychic powers, don't you?"

Chapter 188 Trapped in Time

Although his specific identity and status were unclear, the man in front of him possessed powerful supernatural powers - this was conceivable, and it was also what Li Re could feel at the moment. He thought that the person who could "follow" him into this ghost town would definitely not be a weakling - even if the other party did not follow him from beginning to end, otherwise he would not be surprised by the supernatural powers he displayed, but being able to freely enter and exit the dangerous ghost town obviously required great skills.

He often uses words to provoke the "strong"

A mysterious and unknown power,

It’s always worth looking forward to!

Of course, Li Re was serious about what he said - he seriously wanted to completely get rid of the 'ghosts' in this entire ghost town, and seriously wanted to solve the disaster once and for all!

However, after listening to Li Re's words, the middle-aged man fell silent for a moment. His face looked extremely solemn amidst the crisp sounds of the burning spiritual fire around him. There were still shadows outside the gatehouse behind him. They were the little ghosts who were still fighting for "food" in the hall - in front of him, Li Re had his hands hanging down and his whole body seemed to be integrated with the flames. The sound of "pata pata" was heard by Xing Gongyue, who was wearing a bright red wedding dress and moving lightly, and the expressionless evil ghost was gradually spreading the cold terror and deathly silence.

The man in the Zhongshan suit stared at Li Re in front of him.

Li Re also looked at him.

Their eyes met, and in the impartial confrontation - there seemed to be a supernatural power spreading invisibly and silently, and Li Rexu's eyes seemed to see something ferocious and terrifying about to awaken from the body of the person in front of him.

That is definitely an extremely ferocious ghost.

Li Re was so sure in his heart!

However, he was not in a hurry to take action - instead, he was on high alert, waiting for the opponent to attack with all his strength.

And this confrontation lasted only a moment.

After a while,

The middle-aged man suddenly shook his head, and the terrifying revival that brought Li Re a strong sense of crisis disappeared.

Very abruptly and suddenly—he whispered, "I can't do anything to you."

Li Re had a blank expression on his face, but he held his breath in his heart! What did he mean by "you can't do anything to me"? It couldn't be because of the "guilt" of leading him into the ghost town, right?

"Although I don't think it's a wrong decision to bring you to a ghost town, it is indeed unfair to you." said the middle-aged man.

Li Re: "..."

Then you looked like you were about to take action just now?

It’s a waste of my strong expectations!

But before he finished, the middle-aged man said, "As for what you just said, I cannot deny it either - this ghost town was indeed created by one of my ancestors -"

"So I know everything about this ghost town and understand the dangers here."

"Of course, I've said before that I underestimated you this time... The fact that you were able to gain such a powerful spiritual power in such a short time since entering the ghost town is enough to show that you are an extremely talented person. So, if you really want to know the true face of the seal of this ghost town, I can tell you."

"Now that you know the true purpose of the seal, I think you can give up that unrealistic idea, right?"

The middle-aged man appeared very confident.

The spiritual fires were still burning around him. Li Re, who had a lot of complaints in his heart but nowhere to vent, thought to himself that this middle-aged ghost rider was obviously an upright person. He took a deep breath. Although he had expected the failure of his "provocation", he was mentally prepared, so he adjusted himself quickly.

He opened his mouth.

Was about to say something.

The middle-aged man said directly: "You are right."

"The seal of the ghost town is indeed related to the 'bell' and 'time'."

Uh-huh?

I haven't said anything yet!

Li Re blinked, thinking that this was a deliberate attempt to deny him the opportunity to perform.

The middle-aged man paced in the room burned by green flames. He walked across the table and picked up the white candle.

"Things from thirty years ago...I was just a child at that time, right?"

He said as if recalling a memory: "Thirty years ago, plague was rampant in the Central Plains. Thousands of miles of dead bones and human lives were worthless. Death often came to one city after another..."

"People believe that death is like the extinguishing of a light. But for people like me who practice the supernatural, death often represents the beginning of another horror - those who harbor resentment will turn into 'evil spirits' who can only kill people based on instinct."

"So at that time, there was not only plague in the Central Plains, but also 'ghost disaster'. Ghosts were raging like a tide. If they were not stopped, they would turn the world into a ghost land!"

"In order to prevent the evil spirits, one of my ancestors used himself as bait to lure the evil spirits into this city that was also ravaged by the plague and everyone in the city was dead—"

"It uses the sound of the bell as a boundary, cutting off time and splitting thirty years of time, trapping the evil spirits in different times, and trapping them in an endless cycle within that time."

"This 'time' refers to a certain 'hour' in these thirty years!"

Turning time into a cage sounds incredible.

But what is truly incredible is that it takes a full thirty years of time to completely imprison the evil spirits in the city.

Thirty years.

One thousand nine hundred and fifty days.

Thirteen thousand one hundred four hundred hours.

This means that the number of 'evil ghosts' imprisoned in this ghost town will only be more than this number, and not less than this number - the separated 'time cages' are likely to hold more than one ghost!

Li Re was slightly stunned by the middle-aged man's sudden frankness, but after coming to his senses, he couldn't help but feel amazed when listening to what the man said - after being amazed, the eagerness to try became more and more impulsive.

But he was not actually surprised by what the middle-aged man said.

Using time as a 'seal' was something he had thought of and proposed before - Li Re himself possessed a certain level of logical deduction, and with the help of spiritual energy, this type of thinking could often achieve an almost unreasonable 'precognitive' effect.

——That is, when we were still in the bridal sedan that was rocking all the way.

After Li Re connected all his experiences in the ghost town, he had already discovered the weirdness of this ghost town.

The ghosts in this ghost town,
