Ling Chenyu's heart suddenly tightened, as if it was being tightly grasped by an invisible big hand.

He opened his eyes wide, staring at the mysterious old man hanging upside down beside the hole in the roof. The smile on the old man's face gradually enlarged and became more and more hideous in his eyes.

"Xia Qingge, hurry up and find something. We have to get this monster down! Otherwise, we'll become the monster's dinner!"

There was a slight tremor in Ling Chenyu's voice, but he tried to remain calm, as if this could dispel the little demon of fear in his heart.

Xia Qingge's face was as pale as a freshly painted wall, and her lips were trembling.

But he still squatted down and began to grope in the dark.

Her hands waved wildly in the air, as if she was dancing a tango with an invisible partner.

"Oh my god, it's as dark as the bottom of a pot, I can't see anything!"

Xia Qingge complained as she fumbled around, and accidentally touched a spider web, which frightened her so much that she almost jumped up.

Just then, her hand touched something hard. Without thinking twice, she picked it up and handed it to Ling Chenyu.

"Here...here you go. I don't know what it is, but it should be pretty hard and can be used as a weapon!"

There was a hint of uncertainty in Xia Qingge's voice.

Ling Chenyu took the unidentified object and didn't have time to look at it carefully. He just muttered to himself.

"It doesn't matter what it is, as long as it can hit that monster!"

He swung his arm and smashed it against the roof with all his strength.

"boom--!"

With a loud bang, the dust on the roof fell down as if there was a small earthquake.

The monster old man suddenly let out a deafening scream as if he was scalded by boiling water.

The whole person fell to the ground like a stone shot out by a slingshot, and the ground shook three times.

"Wow, what's this treasure? It's so effective?"

Ling Chenyu opened his eyes wide, as if his eyeballs were about to pop out of their sockets.

He looked down at the moonlight that was fainter than that of a firefly, and instantly felt that the whole world had become dark.

It turned out that what he was holding tightly in his hand was not some heroic and powerful peerless weapon.

Instead, it was a human skeleton with traces of blood and emitting a strange smell!

"Xia Qingge! Your... your luck is too 'unique', isn't it?! You can actually find a human bone from this dark room?!"

Ling Chenyu's voice was filled with disbelief, fear, and even a slight urge to laugh. After all, this plot was too bloody and bizarre.

The bones in his hand felt like they were on fire, so hot that he almost threw his hand away, as if he was throwing away a hot potato.

He threw it onto the grass next to him, fearing that it would suddenly come back to life and jump up to give him a "close contact".

When Xia Qingge heard Ling Chenyu's shout, she was so frightened that she shuddered violently and almost dropped the things in her hand.

She hurried over, took a look in the moonlight, and was stunned. The expression on her face was uglier than if she had eaten a fly.

"What...what's going on?! I...I clearly touched a stick!"

Xia Qingge's voice contained a hint of grievance, confusion, and a little bit of deep doubt about her own touch.

The two looked at each other and saw full of astonishment and helplessness in each other's eyes.

Ling Chenyu took a deep breath and tried to calm his heart that was about to jump out of his chest. Then he picked up the bone that was mistaken for a "stick" and looked at it carefully.

"This bone looks quite old, and there are traces of blood on it. Could it be... could it be that we accidentally broke into an ancient tomb and dug out the bones of someone's ancestors?!"

As Ling Chenyu spoke, he couldn't help but shudder, as if he could already feel the ancient ghosts whispering in his ears, accusing them of their "crimes."

When Xia Qingge heard this, she was so scared that she quickly leaned towards Ling Chenyu, as if this would give her a sense of security.

"Ling Chenyu, let's... let's get out of here quickly! This place is too weird. If we stay any longer, maybe even our bones will be left here!"

There was a hint of pleading and fear in Xia Qingge's voice.

Ling Chenyu nodded, agreeing with it.

He grabbed Xia Qingge's hand as if he was escaping from a volcanic eruption.

The footsteps of the two men drew hurried arcs in the night, and they ran away into the distance without looking back, as if there were millions of zombies chasing them.

"Run! If we don't run, we'll become the 'new residents' of this weird place!"

While running, Ling Chenyu did not forget to look back. His expression was as if there was a big boss behind him waving a big knife and chasing them.

However, fate always seems to play tricks on these two unlucky guys.

After taking just a few steps, their feet seemed to be tripped by an invisible rope. Their bodies suddenly leaned forward and they fell to the ground with their backs up in the air, looking very miserable.

"Oh my god, what the hell is this? Why is it so slippery, like an ice rink?"

Ling Chenyu rubbed his sore butt and complained with a grimace.

Xia Qingge was also badly beaten from the fall. After finally getting up, he took a look in the dim moonlight and was immediately frightened to the point of turning pale.

"Ling... Ling Chenyu, look!"

There was a slight tremor in Xia Qingge's voice as she pointed forward.

Ling Chenyu looked in the direction where her finger pointed, and this sight almost frightened him to death.

It turned out that the ground was densely packed with white bones. Some had been weathered to the point where only a few pieces remained, while others still retained their complete shape, as if telling tragic stories.

"This...this, this, this...are we at a mass grave?!"

Ling Chenyu's voice changed tone, and the expression on his face was more bitter than eating Coptis chinensis.

Xia Qingge was so scared that he stepped back repeatedly, as if he was afraid that if he accidentally stepped on those bones, he would anger their owners and they would jump out of the ground to settle the score with them.

"Ling Chenyu, let's get out of this damn place! If we stay any longer, I feel like I'm going to become one of these skeletons!"

There was a hint of pleading and fear in Xia Qingge's voice.

Ling Chenyu nodded, agreeing with it.

He pulled Xia Qingge up, and the two of them carefully walked around the bones, fearing that they would accidentally step on them and trigger some terrible mechanism.

Their movements were light, as if they were dancing a silent ballet, and every step was filled with tension and caution.

Finally, the two successfully escaped from that hell of bones and returned to a relatively safe place.

They leaned against a big tree, panting and gasping for breath, as if they had just returned from the gates of hell.

However, when they looked up, they were faced with the weird old man's face.
