I’m Not a Badass

Chapter 489 Red Lantern

Walking on the streets of the city, there are skeletons all around, and everyone has to be careful to avoid touching those skeletons.

Many people have a sense of absurdity in their hearts. They never thought that one day they would walk among a group of skeletons, and they had to be careful not to let these skeletons notice their abnormality, and to treat these skeletons as a human being. How absurd is this for a person who is still alive?

I really hope this is a nightmare.

In this atmosphere, Xue Yaxian unconsciously lowered her voice: We are heading directly towards the center of the city this time. I took a look before entering the city. There seems to be a very large palace complex over there. I think it is This is the place where the most distinguished person in the city lives, and there will probably be some valuable clues there.

The others nodded slightly, and Yao Meizhen pondered: But if we find something valuable on the way, we can stop and investigate, maybe there will be unexpected gains. Hey, what is that?

She suddenly raised her hand and pointed to an alley on the left, her eyes filled with surprise. Everyone immediately looked in the direction of her finger and saw a red lantern hanging at the mouth of the alley. There was a pair of scarlet eyes silently in the lantern. Watching them, seeing everyone looking at them, the red lantern suddenly retreated back into the darkness deep in the alley, as if running away, and disappeared.

Everyone looked at each other, and someone tentatively said: We... want to catch up and take a look? That lantern seems to be a little different from the skeletons around it. Even if it doesn't violate the taboo, it can still detect the existence of us people, and it is watching. Every move we make.”

Di Minyi said decisively: Don't chase! Since that thing didn't take the initiative to provoke us, but hid in the dark and peeked, it means that it is not harmful to us for the time being. In this case, we simply pretend that it does not exist and continue on our way!

Since arriving in this city, Di Minyi, who seems to be the most carefree and hot-tempered among the people, has become more cautious than anyone else. She also made very rational judgments at this time, which can't help but surprise Bai Mufan. , I felt in my heart that it is really not advisable to judge a person based on his appearance and temperament.

Xue Yaxian nodded in agreement and said: That's right. In such a strange place, we must not only pay attention to any movement around us, but also try our best to curb our curiosity. No matter what the thing was, whether it was alive or Damn it, as long as it doesn't show any threat to us, we shouldn't care about it.

Everyone continued on their way, and not long after, the feeling of being spied on came again, and it was stronger than before!

The people present were all powerful warriors, and they immediately looked over following the feeling, and couldn't help but feel shocked.

Deep in the alleys near the street and in the dark corners of the surrounding shops, pairs of blood-red eyes were watching them silently. They were red lanterns either hanging or floating in the air. They were discovering them. When I looked over, these red lanterns once again disappeared into the darkness.

Xue Yaxian looked ugly and gritted her teeth: Ignore those things, let's keep walking!

Everyone continued on the road, but their expressions were obviously not as calm as at the beginning. Everyone became a little suspicious. Every time they passed by an alley or the shops on both sides, they couldn't help but glance inside, worried that they would see a pair of His eyes are also watching him, and he breathes a sigh of relief when he finds nothing.

However, less than two minutes later, that feeling of peeping appeared again, and it was stronger than last time. Everyone looked around quickly, and their scalps couldn't help but feel numb.

In the alleys, in the corners of shops, even on the roofs of houses, in the ditches at street corners, etc... pairs of blood-red eyes appeared, staring straight at them, with strange eyes, as if they were looking at a group of dead people. .

This time, just like last time, the moment they noticed it, these sights disappeared one after another, and the sense of voyeurism also disappeared, making everyone heave a sigh of relief.

However, this phenomenon continued to appear again and again, coupled with the strange scene full of skeletons in the city, it gave everyone an extremely strong sense of oppression. The strange eyes of those hiding in the red lanterns watching them gradually They appear more and more frequently. Although they have not shown any aggression or danger yet, they just watch them and then run away when they are discovered, but who can be sure that those ghosts will never attack them? ?

Xue Yaxian also felt something bad. Although these things had been watching them, they seemed to be increasing the pressure and approaching again and again. It was not good if this continued. She couldn't help but said in a hurry: Let's speed up and leave this street. !”

Everyone rushed forward in a hurry, but they had to avoid the skeletons on the road, so they couldn't completely increase their speed. Fortunately, until they walked out of the street completely, no one felt the sense of peeping anymore. It seemed that the ghosts hiding in the dark corners had given up following them.

A disciple of Tianhuai Castle breathed a sigh of relief and said happily: It seems that we have got rid of those ghosts.

Yes. The companion next to him echoed, turned his head and glanced at her casually, and immediately let out a scream, so scared that he stepped back: Xiao Yue, you... your head!

The Tianhuai Fort disciple named Xiao Yue was also startled. He quickly touched his face and found that his face was still fine. He couldn't help but said inexplicably: What's wrong with my face? It's obviously fine!

She looked at the fellow juniors and seniors around her, as if she wanted to be certified, but she found that everyone was looking away from her with frightened faces, looking at her with death-like eyes, and she couldn't help but panic.

Bai Mufan heard the movement and looked over, and when he saw Xiao Yue's face, he couldn't help but feel a little scared.

That Xiao Yue's head was missing, and what was hanging around her neck now was actually a red lantern! They were exactly the same as those red lanterns that were watching them just now!

And what's even weirder is... on that red lantern, her facial features are completely reflected, with her eyes, nose, mouth, ears, etc. all existing perfectly!

At this moment, the owner of that face was looking at them with horror, and kept touching her face with both hands, as if to confirm something, but it seemed that she herself did not realize that her head had been replaced. , I thought I was still fine!

At this moment, more screams were heard one after another. More and more people discovered that their companions' heads had been swapped at some point, with red lanterns hanging around their necks. Some were even frightened. Instinctively, he took out his weapon and attacked, but the latter did not stand still and resisted with all his strength!
