The Haunted

Ye Yingzhi simply told Chi Yan that he had turned into a demon again in a hurry, so he was able to rescue him and take him directly to Xicuilan, but there were more details that he couldn't explain clearly. carry.

Chi Yan accepted this explanation without hesitation, but his heart still ached, he tiptoed and stretched out his hand to touch the top of Ye Yingzhi's head, and asked softly, "Do you feel uncomfortable?"

Ye Yingzhi hugged him and kissed him, and said with a smile: "Get well soon, we leave Devil Town, everything will be fine, don't worry."

The clothes and other daily necessities in the compressed ring were packed by Chi Yan. He was aware of his predicament, and he was reluctant to lose his temper with Ye Yingzhi. In the end, he only stared at him for a while, and asked Ye Yingzhi to put it in the ring by himself. Find a sheltered shade to change into your spare set of clothes.Afterwards, the two still wrapped their bodies in black cloaks and walked towards Xi Cuilan together.

Xicuilan is one of the three capitals of hell, and because it is adjacent to the snow mountain in the east and the abyss of hell, the city is extremely prosperous. There are all kinds of people, not only demons, ordinary fallen people, but also aliens with various appearances.The Fallen of Niabs cannot leave the street in which they live, but other ordinary Fallen who have fallen to Hell are not bound by this.Because of this, Chi Yan and the two who were wrapped tightly in black cloaks looked inconspicuous and did not attract extra attention.

Aaron once said on the first day that the entire itinerary for these three days will go to the Death Paradise and Snow Mountain Art Museum in Xicuilan on the last day. Death Paradise is the most dangerous of all the projects in these three days, and Snow Mountain The art gallery is the most peaceful item, basically there is no danger, that is to say, as long as you can come back from the death paradise alive, you can return to Devil Town safely with a high probability.

Ye Yingzhi calculated the time, they might miss the tour group if they rushed to Death Paradise, why not go directly to the Snow Mountain Art Museum to meet the tour group.

The most convenient, fast and cheap way of transportation in the entire eastern part of hell is the hell tunnel car, which is very similar to the subway in the world. It is to build a driving tunnel under hell, and the tunnel car travels through the tunnel.As long as you don't leave the city, you can take the tunnel car to and from the city for free.

Ye Yingzhi asked the devil waiting for the bus on the street for the general direction, walked to the nearest underground tunnel station with Chi Yan, stood in front of the driving route map, and carefully studied their bus route and direction.

Chi Yan stood beside him and looked at him with some doubts: "Yingzhi, can you understand the words on it?"

For himself, the words above are like Russian, completely incomprehensible.All the text signs in Devil Town are magically converted to the mother tongue, but the hell text in hell does not have such magic, so he can't understand it naturally.However, before they came to travel, each of them was given a bottle of potion, and within three days after taking it, they could communicate freely with the aborigines in hell without feeling strange.

Ye Yingzhi nodded, and asked back: "Can't you understand?" Ye Yingzhi has never thought about this question, he can understand all the words in hell naturally, he thought it was the same as the situation in Devil Town, but Unexpectedly, Chi Yan couldn't understand.

Chi Yan nodded truthfully.

It is unnecessary and impossible for Ah Yan to lie to herself.Ye Yingzhi lowered his eyes slightly, feeling more and more suspicious in his heart.

But he still smiled at Chi Yan: "This is not very good and convenient, I guess it may also be the effect of that golden bean." Although he knew in his heart that it couldn't be just that.

At this time, the tunnel car arrived at the stop, Chi Yan and Ye Yingzhi got on the car together with the demons, and forgot what they wanted to say for a while.

The tunnel car is driving fast on the underground track. Sometimes through the window, you can see the red hell karst sea and the black hell volcano. In the karst sea, there are rolling and roaring hell monsters. The scene is magnificent and magnificent, which is rare in the world. one sight.But the demons or aliens around him all looked familiar, and there were demons sitting in the subway flipping through the morning newspaper, Chi Yan tried his best not to show an overly surprised expression.

Chi Yan and Ye Yingzhi sat in a double seat, and he whispered to Ye Yingzhi, "The welfare in hell is quite good."

Before Ye Yingzhi could answer, a middle-aged demon standing next to them said: "This is all thanks to His Majesty Aimer. Are you foreigners who came to Xicuilan for tourism? Have you seen the Aimer who just came out in the morning?" Is there any news about His Majesty Merle's appearance in Nyabs?"

Chi Yan didn't know how to answer the words, and was afraid of revealing his flaws, so he shook his head lightly.

Fortunately, the middle-aged demon didn't expect any reaction from him. He just continued talking on his own, telling them the history of the rise of the eastern part of Hell under the leadership of His Majesty Aimer, and praised Xi Cuilan to them What a beautiful and bustling city, they will definitely make a worthwhile trip. After learning that they are going to the Xueshan Art Museum, they enthusiastically introduced the famous collections of the Xueshan Art Museum to them.

"The Snow Mountain Art Museum was rebuilt from a palace of His Majesty Aimer. There are many authentic works of hell art masters in it, and regular exhibitions of works by young artists who have emerged in recent years. Many human artists also stay in hell when they die. I have downloaded a lot of works, most of which are based on the theme of hell. They said that the scenery of hell has provided them with more creative inspiration. Monet, Van Gogh, Picasso, which are admired by humans, can be found here. But for From my point of view, the most worthwhile part of the Xueshan Art Museum is that His Majesty Aimer once lived here for a short time, so there are many traces of His Majesty's life left behind."

The middle-aged devil talked for them all the way, and did not say goodbye to the two until he arrived at the station, wishing them a good time.It may be that he has rarely encountered such a cooperative audience.

The Snow Mountain Art Museum is a small palace built on the mountain near the Xicuilan Snow Mountain. The overall building area is not very large, but the design is very delicate and unique. From a distance, it looks like an ice fruit dotted among the black mountains. .

There are three ways to go up the mountain. It is free to climb up the mountain by foot or by a suspension car. In addition, there is a charging item, which is mainly aimed at ordinary demons and aliens. It will provide a potion, which can make you Grow your wings and experience the feeling of flying up the mountain with a high-ranking demon.

Hell coins are used in hell, so Chi Yan and Ye Yingzhi, who are penniless, naturally chose the free levitation car.The suspension car is specially designed to be close to the appearance of the palace. The overall look is like a piece of ice floating in the sky. Sitting in the car is like sitting in a piece of ice and flying in the sky. The four sides and the top and bottom are transparent, with only one layer of condensation Faint mist.Chi Yan guessed that the residents of Hell should not be afraid of heights.

After going up the mountain, the two found the familiar old-fashioned carriage outside the art museum. The carriage was empty. Aaron was standing outside the carriage talking to another demon. When he saw the two, his eyes widened and his face was covered. Can't help being surprised.He looked at the two of them and murmured in a low voice, especially looking at Ye Yingyi, with a strange expression on his face: "...You guys are still alive, and you can still find this place..."

But soon he comforted himself and found a reasonable explanation—the rumors said that His Majesty Aimer came to the Lost City last night and sent down the judgment of hell. S ran out.

"Go," the amazed demon guide pointed in the direction of the side door of the art gallery, "just like everyone else's rules, the travel agency has hidden seven black stars in it in advance, as long as you successfully get the black stars back, you can return to Devil Town .This was originally the palace of His Majesty Emer, one of the famous landmarks of Xi Cuilan. No demon dares to be presumptuous here, so you just need to compete with other humans. Let me remind you that there are only seven stars, but the living Counting the humans who have come here, there are still ten of you.”

In fact, this level limits the maximum number of human beings who can finally return to Devil Town. All of this has been designed as early as the tour group set off—there are 49 human beings who set foot on the carriage bound for hell from Devil Town , and at that time it was actually clear that there could only be seven people at most who came back this time, no matter how hard they tried to survive halfway, or how thrillingly they escaped from death, the result was already doomed—only seven people at most could Return to Devil Town alive.

As the former palace of the ruler of hell, to show respect, the main entrance of Xueshan Art Museum will only be opened when receiving important guests, and only the side entrance will be open at ordinary times.The environment in the art museum is relatively safe and the time of the two is limited, because the arrival time is late and they have already fallen into a disadvantage. In order to improve efficiency, they decided to split their actions in one west and one east, and divided the soldiers into two ways to find the black star.

Ye Yingzhi soon noticed that a decorative statue in the corridor was a bit out of place. After careful observation, he found a black star hanging on the placket of the statue. The star was integrated with other decorations, so it was not easy to detect. Although it is near the entrance, it has not been discovered by others.

Ye Yingzhi took the star into her hands, and decided to find another star before going to Chi Yanhuihe.

But after that, he didn't go as smoothly as he did at the beginning, and he never found the second star.He also had no intention of viewing the collections in the museum, and he was getting farther and farther away from the main exhibition area before he knew it.

At the end, there was an upward wooden staircase in front of Ye Yingzhi. At the end of the staircase, there were two black wooden doors, which were blocked by a black ribbon, and a "No Entry" sign written in hell script was erected in the middle.

There are no demon tourists who come to visit this place, the overall environment is very quiet, and there are no demon guards.There were two young devil children playing and running up from downstairs, regardless of the ribbons and prohibitions blocking the stairs, they chased and ran up the wooden stairs.A child tried to push the black wooden door, but it didn't open. The child chasing him up also pushed the door, but the wooden door remained motionless.

Seeing that the door couldn't be opened, the devil kid who was in front of him laughed and ran down the stairs quickly. Seeing this, his partner quickly gave up the strange door and chased him away.

Really annoying pups everywhere.Ye Yingzhi thought in her heart, but if it was Ah Yan, even when she was a child, she must be very obedient and lovable, making people want to hold him in her arms and pamper him all the time.

Ye Yingzhi looked at the black wooden door upstairs, with wild and strange thoughts spinning in his mind.

It is forbidden to enter here. Travel agencies are not children who do not understand the rules, so they should not put tokens in the restricted area.But for the sake of the slightest possibility, Ye Yingzhi bypassed the ban, walked up the stairs, and came to the black gate.

Oddly enough, as if he had self-awareness and memory, his hand was naturally and habitually attached to the doorknob, and he gently pushed it inward—with a "squeak", the door swung open.

The two outer walls of the room are full of transparent floor-to-ceiling glass windows. White soft gauze curtains hang in front of the windows. rise.

A rectangular black wooden desk was placed near the window. A thick layer of white paper was spread on the desk. As the wind blew, many papers were blown to the ground lightly and scattered all over the place.

It can be guessed that probably after the owner of this room left, no one can come in here again.

At this time, a piece of paper was dropped to Ye Yingzhi's feet.He paused, bent down to pick up the piece of paper, and then froze for a moment——

The appearance of a person is outlined with a black pen on the snow-white paper. Although it is simple, it can be seen that the artist has devoted a lot of effort to the strokes. The artist is very serious in tracing the appearance of the person in the painting. .

And the person in the painting is his Ah Yan.

The paper in his hand fell to the ground unconsciously, Ye Yingzhi bent down, and picked up a few more nearby ones to look at - one by one, the protagonists on the paintings were all the same person, with eyes and smiles, angry or happy, vivid Apparently, that was what Ah Yan looked like in his mind.

What puzzled him even more was that each painting seemed to be written by him, and it seemed to be his handwriting.

Every painting here is like his own confession to Ah Yan.
