The Haunted

Chapter 168 Sunset

Ye Yingzhi stood a few steps away and looked back at the man quietly, and said softly: "I just want to know if there is any truth in what you said. Now it seems that those words are basically believable."

The man chased after him just now, and he seemed to have talked to them a lot, but in fact, just remember what the demon guide Aaron once told them, "Don't be curious, don't respond, don't eat or take anything here, don't take your body Leave anything here and don't go back." From these five points, it can be found that there are not many words of real value in what the men said, and Aaron has already said the most valuable parts to them.The origin of Nyabus and why the Fallen wanted to kill the demons had little to do with whether they could leave here safely.

Other than that, the only fresh and worthwhile message in the man's words is that "the fallen cannot leave the streets where they are."

The smile on the strong man's face was forced, and he looked a bit hideous.

As he himself said, he can't get out of this street now.From this, Ye Yingzhi judged that what he said was true.

Ye Yingzhi ignored him, pulled Chi Yan, turned around and continued walking forward.

Chi Yan took his hand: "Yingzhi, when did you find out that that person was wrong?" He also faintly sensed that the person was a little weird, but it was purely from intuition, so he secretly raised his guard, but it was not accurate. Identify what is wrong with that person.

"He has the same smell as those brown-robed men, it's the smell from the pot. At first I thought he just got the smell after standing by for a long time, but later found out that it wasn't, he should have become and Those people are like fallen people. I guess he drank the contents of the pot." Ye Yingzhi explained.What's more, that person's disguise is not very good, he can tell at a glance that the other party is acting.

Compared with a stranger who happened to help them, people are sometimes inexplicably more willing to trust the person they have favored, and that person took advantage of this to choose them as a target, and the other party revealed a lot to them. Reliable news, many people may fall into the other party's trap unconsciously.The man's biggest failure is that he delivered things a little abruptly. Maybe he was so anxious when he saw that the two of them were about to walk out of the street. Even if Ye Yingzhi was not around, someone else might not accept him easily thing.

That stench and disgusting smell permeated the street, so Chi Yan didn't pay much attention to the man's smell, only after hearing Ye Yingzhi's explanation did he recall that it was indeed the case.He subconsciously continued: "The thing in that pot smells disgusting, why would anyone want to drink it?"

"It's a stew made from dead bodies. Most people would feel disgusted when they smell it, but those who have killed or eaten people will find the aroma very attractive. That man is obviously the latter. Looking at it now, the more People who do a lot of evil are more likely to be left here." Ye Yingzhi said.

Chi Yan nodded: "Yingzhi, how do you know what's in that pot? You know such details?"

Ye Yingzhi was taken aback by his question, frowned slightly, and said after thinking for a few seconds: "I forgot where I heard about it, but when I saw that iron pot, I knew what it was." It felt like he had been here before.

But he thought about his life in detail, and his experience from childhood to adulthood was clear and clear, not to mention that he could not have been to hell before, let alone Niabus, and naturally he could not have seen these things Brown-robed men and their long iron pots.

Chi Yan shook his hand: "Don't think about it, I guess you heard about it when you were in Devil's Town, but you didn't remember it, and only remembered it now when you saw it."

At this time, they had already left the street where the brown-robed men were far behind, and what appeared in front of them were three parallel road entrances, and a sign was erected at the entrance of the road, which read "There is only one road that can take you When you arrive at your destination, please choose carefully."However, standing at the entrance, the three roads and the buildings on both sides are exactly the same, and there is no difference.

Ye Yingzhi thought for a while and said, "What the man said just now should be true. As long as we don't violate the five taboos, we will be safe and won't be left behind. This brand is just something to confuse people's hearts. When encountering difficulties and setbacks, I thought that I was the reason why I had bad luck and chose the wrong path at the beginning, and I was willing to give up, and of course I couldn’t get out again.”

He put his arms around Chi Yan's waist from behind, bowed his head and said, "So Ah Yan, you choose one at random, you have to believe that no matter which path you choose, as long as you keep going, we can reach the end."

How similar is this to human choices.When faced with a choice, many people always think that they have chosen the wrong path. They always feel that if they had chosen another path at that time, the path after that would have been smoother and better. There will be no less hardships, no less effort required, and as long as you keep going, no matter which road you go, you can reach the end.

So Ye Yingzhi asked Chi Yan to choose the one he likes the most.

Chi Yan hesitated for a moment, he understood the truth in Ye Yingzhi's words, so he chose the rightmost path casually.Walking into the entrance, you can find that this is a street similar to the small commercial street you saw when you got off the bus. The biggest difference is that there are no transparent shop windows on the buildings on both sides of the street, but a side with A mirror the size of the entire wall.

At first, there was nothing in the mirror, only the two of them. Gradually, a gray shadow appeared in the mirror and followed them. But when they looked back, the street was empty, and only the two of them could be seen. , and nothing else.

The two held hands tightly, and continued to walk forward.Slowly, more and more gray shadows followed them, and even crowded around them. In reality, the street was still empty, but the sense of crowding was real. Walking through the hustle and bustle of the New Year's Temple Fair, it became extremely difficult to move forward, and the two of them would be squeezed apart by those gray shadows if they were not careful.

At this time, streaks of crimson sunset glow appeared in the sky—dusk fell, and the time agreed by Aaron was almost here.

As time went by, the gray shadows in the mirror had become densely packed together, and it became more and more difficult for the two to move forward.At this time, Ye Yingzhi gradually realized that those gray shadows were gathering around him, and only a few of them followed Chi Yan.

The sky was getting darker and darker, but the two of them were completely surrounded in front and back, and they couldn't move any more. It took a lot of strength and a lot of time to move forward.The sun only has half of its face left, and it is gratifying that the small square at the end of the street and the old-fashioned train carriages parked in the middle of the square can already be seen.

Holding hands alone was no longer effective. In order not to be scattered by the gray shadow, Ye Yingzhi could only hug Chi Yan from behind, hugging him and walking forward step by step, but it was difficult to maintain this situation.All of a sudden, Chi Yan felt his waist loosen, and the pressure on his whole body suddenly decreased. He took advantage of the inertia of rushing forward and took a few steps forward before stopping. Looking back, he found that Ye Yingzhi hadn't followed - the other party was still Standing at the place just now, he barely moved. Seen from the mirror, countless gray shadows gathered around him, trapping him firmly in the middle, and only a few gray shadows followed him.So as soon as the two separated, Chi Yan felt the pressure in his body drop suddenly.

Ye Yingzhi stood on the empty street, raised his eyes to look at him, then looked at the sky, raised his voice and said calmly: "Ah Yan, be obedient, you go to the carriage first, go to the carriage and wait for me, I will be there soon past."

He had predicted that it would be difficult for him to think of a solution to these things in a short time, and it would be dark soon. Compared with the lost city of Nyabs, who didn't know what would happen after dark, he obviously went to the city first. It is a safer choice for the carriage to follow the tour group to the hotel to settle down.He planned to find a way to find Chi Yan after solving these things by himself, he didn't want Chi Yan to follow his adventures in Niabs after dark when everything was uncertain.

Chi Yan raised his head to look at the sky, then looked back at the carriage, and finally turned his head to look at Ye Yingzhi who was firmly surrounded in the mirror.

He shook his head, and suddenly took big steps towards Ye Yingzhi's direction.

Ye Yingzhi's expression changed instantly when he saw his movements, and he stopped loudly, "A Yan! Be obedient, get back in the car, and I will go back to find you right away. Trust me!"

Chi Yan ignored them all, and quickly walked back to Ye Yingzhi's side. Those gray shadows didn't stop him, so he walked back very easily.

Ye Yingzhi looked at his lover who reappeared in front of him, gently closed his eyes, and said softly, "Why are you disobedient?"

"Aaron said, 'Don't leave anything on your body here'." Chi Yan stared at Ye Yingzhi, stretched out his hands to gently cup his face, raised his head, and quietly kissed Ye Yingzhi's chin, "But I left my most important thing here, Ye Yingzhi, I can't leave."

He took Ye Yingzhi's hand and pressed it on his left chest, pursed his lips, and whispered: "Ye Yingzhi, you are my most important thing, without you, I won't go anywhere."

Even if I'm trapped in Niabs for eternity, repeating the same thing every day and night, and can't even leave the range of a street, as long as I'm with you, I'm happy.

The burning clouds in the sky burned intensely, and the light red and purple were smudged into a large area. The sun light was gradually swallowed by the darkness. In the dim sky, the strong colors had a tragic beauty that was born to death and was on the verge of shattering.

Aaron glanced at the sky and put his hand on the doorknob of the carriage.

After sunset, those who don't come back never come back.
