A crisp, almost sweet voice and a shrill meow sounded at the same time.
No words can describe the feeling of this moment.
The numb feeling was transmitted directly from the top of the head to the soles of the feet, the heartbeat accelerated crazily, and panic spread uncontrollably.
Only then did Gu Xingyun realize how focused his attention was. The three dolls in the bedroom seemed to attract all his attention unknowingly, putting his spirit in an extremely focused state. When such a When his state was instantly broken in an extremely shocking way, Gu Xingyun's reaction was no different from ordinary people.
His blood pressure soared rapidly, completely out of subconscious instinct. Gu Xingyun shook his arms crazily, trying to get rid of the black cat that silently landed on his shoulder.
The crisp unison was silent for a moment.
As Gu Xingyun swung his arms almost as if he was struggling, the meowing sound of a panicked cat suddenly rang out.
"Meow~~~meow~~~meow!!!!"
Sad, miserable, and eerie.
The cat kept meowing, and the black cat grabbed Gu Xingyun's clothes, its claws even penetrated the clothes, and clung to Gu Xingyun's shoulders desperately, no matter how Gu Xingyun shook his arms. His movements were so violent that he even broke out in his own field. The black cat stayed firmly on his shoulder, but the meows became more and more miserable.
Gu Xingyun's heart seemed to have completely collapsed. Even facing Li Tianlan, he dared to fight with that young guy even if he knew he was no match. He no longer cared about the majesty of the God of War to protect the country. He turned around suddenly and swung Holding his arms, he opened his legs and rushed out of the bedroom.
The high-pitched cat meows spread from the bedroom to the front hall, to the courtyard, and even throughout the entire village.
Gu Xingyun rushed straight to the door with his head down.
The uneasiness in his heart has become real. The strange feeling brought to him by this dead village is even worse than that of the forest. In comparison, he would rather go back to the forest to face the human skin than stay here. One minute and one second.
The wooden door was knocked open by him.
The moment he stepped out of the door, his shoulders lightened slightly.
The black cat that had been holding on to his shoulder jumped lightly and jumped directly from his shoulder.
It was lying at the door, its eyes gradually turning blood red staring at Gu Xingyun, but it did not go out.
Gu Xingyun didn't feel any relief.
Standing outside the gate, a chill that almost completely froze him seemed to have swallowed up all his consciousness.
villages, streets...
The street was still a street he was unfamiliar with but not unfamiliar either. It looked unchanged, but it had undergone tremendous changes.
Just as clean and narrow roads...
The same low-rise house...
The same pale white lanterns fluttering in the wind.
The difference is people.
'people'
'people? ! ! ! '
Yes, people.
On this previously quiet and deserted street, there were now swaying figures one after another.
Only then did Gu Xingyun realize that the sky on the horizon had completely darkened.
The pale and somewhat cold sunlight disappeared.
Night falls.
There seems to be a clear dividing line.
When night falls over the village, the whole village comes alive.
"Crunch..."
There was the sound of the door being opened.
The doors of households on the street were opened one by one, and people walked out of their homes with various expressions and emotions.
After entering the village, Gu Xingyun heard a sound for the first time.
"Auntie, I will go to school tomorrow."
A young-looking villager walked up to a middle-aged woman and said with a bright smile.
The middle-aged woman nodded and sighed: "Old Liu's son, I don't know what kind of girl he is looking for."
"I want to eat fried noodles."
The young man scratched his head.
The woman glanced at him and said, "Ah, my family is going to the mountains to hunt tomorrow. There seems to be a wild boar in the mountains."
The young man scratched his head: "I still don't want to marry him. I heard that he is ready to propose, but his family is not easy to get along with."
The woman sighed: "I'm going to the construction site tomorrow, and I don't know if it's easy to buy a ticket."
"I can afford five million."
The young man chuckled: "But is this your first time?"
There began to be more and more sounds around.
The villagers gradually became energetic, and everyone saw the
Neighbors with whom I have good relations are all greeting each other.
"Second sister-in-law, your son has entered the city?"
"I don't know what to eat, hey."
"I'm going to be late tomorrow. I don't know if my salary will be deducted."
"I heard that an old man from the Liu family passed away."
"This dress looks so festive and youthful."
"..."
Gu Xingyun looked at this scene in confusion.
In his more than fifty years of life, he seemed to feel the madness and malice coming from the entire world for the first time.
His spirit gradually became sluggish, and he just looked at the people in front of him silently.
These people are indeed human beings.
But everyone's spirit seems to have become completely chaotic, and even a variety of different personalities have emerged.
They were communicating enthusiastically and seemed very lively, but what they said was completely wrong. But it was obvious that they were not aware of this at all, and they kept talking, as if they were setting up paragraphs. The established procedures were kept on being talked about until the end of time.
No one noticed Gu Xingyun.
It's like he doesn't exist at all.
Gu Xingyun's face was pale, and he was covered in cold sweat as he looked at the increasingly lively streets in front of him.
He was really frightened.
He didn't want to stay here for a second in this crazy and chaotic village.
So he walked quietly into the villagers.
After coming into close contact with these villagers, his hands and feet were cold, and he moved cautiously in the direction in his memory.
He walked very slowly.
But the destination is extremely clear, and it is obvious that he has not lost his way.
He wanted to return to that forest, cross that forest, return to Nanyun, return to Youzhou. Even in the ice and snow of Kunlun City under Qingyun Mountain, it would be much warmer than here.
He didn't know where this place was.
But he knew very well that the only place outside this ghost place was the real world.
The street gradually came to an end.
So Gu Xingyun naturally entered an extremely narrow alley.
Gu Xingyun couldn't help but swallowed.
He remembered clearly that the small alley around him did not exist not long ago.
When the street ends, you should see the forest.
But now, the forest is gone.
The moment Gu Xingyun turned around, the streets disappeared.
The place where he came in had become a wall.
All the lively and noisy sounds outside the street disappeared instantly.
The whole village seemed to be dead silent again.
The way back completely disappears.
Moving forward became the only way.
There were no street lights in the village, it was dead silence and darkness.
Gu Xingyun's breathing became more and more rapid, and he walked forward cautiously. Maybe after a minute, maybe five minutes, his eyes finally adapted to the darkness around him.
The visibility in front of us was still extremely low.
But vaguely, he seemed to see a person standing at the end of the alley.
Maybe standing... maybe not.
It seemed to be a woman. Her long hair completely covered her face and was draped unscrupulously in front of her body. In the night, her long red dress seemed to glow with a blood-like and shrill luster. Her body moved forward. He stooped, his body twisted into a strange angle, and he stretched out his hands, moving little by little towards Gu Xingyun.
There is no road behind.
In the absolutely dark and quiet alley, Gu Xingyun was walking face to face with the thing at the end of the alley.
He couldn't see the other person's face behind his long hair, but he instinctively felt that the other person's eyes were staring at him coldly.
Breathe deeply and relax, breathe deeply and relax.
Gu Xingyun kept adjusting his breathing, but his steps seemed to be filled with lead, getting slower and slower.
Seems to be aware of his speed.
The twisted red figure at the end of the alley suddenly began to accelerate.
Its body became more and more twisted, and its long arms were aimed at Gu Xingyun and rushed over.
"Hold!!!"
Gu Xingyun, whose heart was on the verge of collapse, roared angrily, and the realm that had been condensed to the extreme suddenly exploded around him. The surging power surged crazily, and his body rushed directly towards the red shadow.
Fight.
All we can do is fight.
This is the only option.
The field is vast.
Gu Xingyun appeared directly at the location of the red figure.
according to
The old was darkness and silence.
The night is as dark as eternity.
But the red shadow suddenly disappeared.
Everything just seemed to be just his illusion, and that figure seemed to have never existed.
"Tick tock...tick tock..."
A close ticking sound sounded from behind Gu Xingyun. The sound was slight but had a deafening shock.
The strong smell of blood continued to spread.
It's blood!
To be precise, it was the sound of blood falling on the ground.
The disappearing red shadow rang out in the ancient clouds.
The other party did not disappear.
it...
Behind yourself! ! !
Gu Xingyun turned around suddenly.
Still dark.
No twisted red figure.
But the vague smell of blood around him was constantly spreading.
Tick tock...tick tock...
The sound of blood dripping sounded again from behind Gu Xingyun.
Gu Xingyun turned around again at a faster speed.
Tick tock...tick tock...
The sound of blood dripping was still behind him.
The smell of blood became stronger.
Gu Xingyun stood there. He slowly lowered his head little by little and looked at his feet.
The thick blood had covered the pavement under my feet before I knew it, and it was extremely sticky.
The ticking sound became clearer and clearer, and drops of blood seemed to fall on Gu Xingyun's body.
Somewhat dizzy.
Somewhat dazed.
Gu Xingyun shook his head vigorously.
He knew that the thing was following him closely, even close to sticking to him, but every time he turned around, the thing seemed to appear behind him.
He can't see it.
It's like I'll never see it.
Gu Xingyun tried his best to take a step forward. His whole body was limp and seemed extremely weak.
Two footsteps could be heard clearly on the blood-covered ground.
The thing behind him took steps almost at the same time as him.
Gu Xingyun stopped again.
Things behind also stopped.
It seemed like something had been attached to his back.
If there is, if there is not.
Gu Xingyun didn't know if it was his own illusion.
The cell phone rang suddenly.
It was originally very soft music, but in today's atmosphere it was indescribably harsh, with a strong ominous aura.
Gu Xingyun trembled slightly and subconsciously took out the phone.
The cell phone that had lost signal for a long time now had full signal.
Jiang Shangyu's name was shaking on the phone.
Gu Xingyun gritted his teeth and answered the phone directly without any hesitation.
"Your Highness, I'm sorry, something happened and I was late."
Jiang Shangyu's warm voice rang on the other end of the phone.
As he spoke, the blood on the ground began to disappear, and the alley began to disappear.
All kinds of confusing sounds rang in my ears again.
Gu Xingyun held the phone, his body trembling.
He suddenly realized that everything just seemed to be extremely unreal.
He didn't move his body.
His body was still standing by the door, and the black cat behind him was still staring at him. He was standing on the street, listening to the extremely chaotic conversations around him.
"I can guarantee it was an accident."
Jiang Shangyu's voice was apologetic and sincere, but it was extremely terrifying in Gu Xingyun's ears.
The corners of his mouth moved with difficulty, and he opened his mouth several times before finally making a sound: "Where are you?"
The domain spreads over silently.
Jiang Shangyu's figure gradually took shape in the blurry field, and finally stood in front of Gu Xingyun.
"Feel sorry."
Jiang Shangyu looked at his pale face and said again.
Gu Xingyun looked at him blankly for a long time before asking hoarsely: "Where is this?"
"This is my place."
Jiang Shangyu was silent for a moment and then laughed: "It is my base. Of course, this will also become His Highness's base in the future."
"Your Highness, you have kept your promise and come here, and I have fulfilled my promise to you. This will be one of our most important bases, and from now on, we are our own."
He spoke slowly, extended his palm to Gu Xingyun, and said in a low voice: "Your Highness Gu Xingyun, welcome to the world of shadows."
