Du Leding looked at the rusty iron piece and felt unbelievable: "Everything I saw is real?!"

The armored soldiers who seemed to come from thousands of years ago, the chilling swords and swords, and the rapid sound of horseshoes were not what he saw in his sleepwalking, but actually happened, on the street outside this house.

Du Leding carefully recalled: "They were wearing double armor and holding a ring-shouldered sword, which is completely the equipment of ancient Chinese soldiers."

"I'm afraid that little girl was not in my dreams," Duledin murmured, "Are they all... dead souls?"

The two were silent for a long time, they didn't want to think about the unpleasant topic before, and thought about the whole thing from beginning to end in a business-like manner.Su Teng said: "If the souls of these ancient warriors are the so-called soul hunters, then the temple should be the tomb we are looking for. But what happened to that little girl?"

Du Le Ding shook his head, his head was full of question marks, such as who is the little girl and why did he know that "they" came; where did these ancient dead souls come from, what exactly did they do; He was wrong, why didn't the last knife cut off...

It didn't take long before dawn, and Charlie appeared at the door, looking at Duledin with an "I knew it would be like this" expression.

Du Leding dragged his voice helplessly: "Listen to my explanation."

Charlie raised his paw to cover his ears: "I won't listen, I won't listen."

Duledin didn't really mean to explain, just to make fun of Charlie.He stretched and yawned hard, feeling a little tired.The wound on the foot has been bandaged, but it still hurts when walking.

There was the sound of the door opening in the corridor, Du Leding and Su Teng walked out of the room together, and saw Hodge walking downstairs energetically.

"Morning, did you sleep well?" Hodge said with a smile on his face.

"I may have fallen asleep." Du Leding pointed to his bloodshot eyes, followed him and asked casually, "Handsome, do you have a girlfriend?"

Hodge said cheerfully, "No, do you want to introduce me? Haha."

"Don't be funny, I'm also single," Du Leding smiled, "Then you don't have any other relatives, brothers and sisters, etc. Living alone is too boring."

Huo Qi walked to the kitchen, turned around and curled his lips when he reached the door: "No, I'm an only child, and I complained to my parents before, why didn't I have a younger brother for me to bully."

When Hodge entered the kitchen, Su Teng whispered, "Do you think he's telling the truth?"

Du Leding nodded: "The expression and tone are very natural."

He followed into the kitchen and asked again: "Is there a girl in your town who is about ten years old and so tall, who is thin and tall?"

He made gestures while describing, and Hodge laughed and said, "There are quite a few kids like this, what's wrong?"

"She's wearing a blue dress." Du Le Ding described the little girl's attire unwillingly.

Huo Qi looked at Du Leding quietly, and was distracted for a second as if slipping away, but soon returned to smiling: "I have no impression, there were too many children who ran out to play yesterday, I didn't pay attention .”

Du Leding left the kitchen and walked outside with Su Teng.The early morning in Terry Town is no different from other places. Residents of the town get up to make breakfast one after another. People who walk in the morning run across the street. People who go out to collect newspapers look sleepy. In the night decoration, teenage children dragged their schoolbags and walked lazily to school.

They started the day as usual, without any abnormalities, and it seemed almost unreal to Duledin.He frowned and said: "When he mentioned the girl's attire, Hodge's reaction was a bit strange, but then he behaved very normally. I can't tell if he is hiding something."

Su Teng pointed to a few children on the road and said, "Why don't you ask them."

Some of her peers may have seen that girl, and the child will not lie, even if it is really nonsense, there is no city that can hide his emotions.Du Leding changed into a "Brother Sunshine" smile, caught up with those teenagers who went through the night of gossip and soul hunting, and got closer to them with just a few words.

Seeing that these teenagers dispelled their doubts and talked freely, Du Leding said: "When I first arrived in the town last night, I met a man who looked very scary. Have you all seen him?"

"Of course, Valentin, the devil of the abyss!" They replied laughingly.

Du Le Ding made an expression of unbearable looking back and said: "This name suits him quite well, how did he become like that?"

The teenagers kept talking, describing Valentine as an evil spirit crawling out of hell, as long as he was caught, he would be disemboweled and eat his internal organs.So on the night of soul hunting, Valentine hid in the cave and did not come out, so as not to be caught by the soul hunters who hunted evil souls.

It was nonsense, but they said it with convincing words, as if it was true.

Du Leding said again: "By the way, I bumped into a little girl on the road last night. Her things were dropped and I picked her up, but I couldn't find her. Do you know such a girl?"

As he spoke, he described the girl's appearance and clothing at night carefully, for fear of missing any key details.

Several teenagers looked at each other, guessing whether it would be Mary, Jenny, or Sophia, but there was no consensus after guessing.Du Leding was a little disappointed, isn't the little girl from this town?

He added: "By the way, she seems to have lost her parents and lives with her brother."

The boys immediately said that there was no such girl in the town, and that the only young man whose parents had died was Hodge, but he had no sister.

Du Leding nodded: "Okay, I'll ask others again, thank you."

A group of teenagers bid farewell to him one after another, the tall girl among them deliberately walked slowly and fell behind, and turned back after a while, calling for Du Leding.

"Why, what do you remember about that little girl?" Du Leding was a little excited.

The girl shook her head, and quietly glanced at Su Teng not far away: "Does he have a girlfriend?"

Du Leding: "..."

This child is about fifteen or sixteen years old, he looks a little precocious in his clothes, and seems to be very advanced in thinking.Du Leding looked back at Su Teng. He was young and dressed in casual clothes, looking a bit like a freshman.

Girls at this age do mature earlier than boys, and may be more interested in older boys than their peers.

Du Leding smiled at her: "He doesn't have a girlfriend."

The girl raised the corners of her mouth and seemed very happy: "Then can you tell me his phone number?"

"I haven't finished yet," Du Leding approached the girl mysteriously and said, "He doesn't have a girlfriend, but he has a boyfriend."

girl:"……"

"Bye!" Du Leding ran away with a smile and returned to Su Teng.

Su Teng: "How is it?"

Du Leding shook his head regretfully: "It's really strange that they all say they don't know such a girl."

Su Teng glanced at the girl who walked away alone: ​​"What did that child come back to tell you?"

"Her?" Du Le Ding raised his eyebrows, "She—— thinks I'm handsome, and wants my phone number."

Su Teng was startled for a moment: "You gave it to her?"

Du Leding looked like it was no big deal: "Yes, the little girl is pretty, and it's good to chat online when you're free."

Su Teng was silent for a while, and seemed to have a lot of words to say, and picked the most bitter one: "Uncle Du likes to date underage girls online?"

"Haven't you heard the story of Daddy-Long-Legs?" Du Leding said with seven dissatisfied and eight dissatisfied, "It's better than lusting after a hallucination."

As soon as these words came out, Du Le Ding's intestines were green with regret, and he swore that he definitely didn't do it on purpose, it was purely a brain twitch and a bald mouth.

He wanted to say something to make up for it, but the moment he met Su Teng's eyes, his heart suddenly ached.He didn't know how to describe Su Teng's eyes at that moment, it broke the hearts of those who saw it.

"Hey, the young couple quarreled."

When the two confronted each other stiffly, Shi Qianjin shook out from the opposite house.His walking posture carried a unique sense of carefreeness, coupled with that jerky expression, he looked like a young man playing games in the world.

Du Leding greeted him awkwardly, and he nodded lazily: "The arm is still there."

Du Le Ding was stunned for a moment, he didn't understand what he meant, and it took him a while to react suddenly: "Did you see what happened last night?"

Shi Qianjin: "Yes, I heard the sound of horseshoes on the street in the middle of the night, so I took a look at the window."

His tone did not show any surprise at the sight of strange ancient warriors galloping on horses, as if he was saying that it was not unusual to see someone running at night. Du Leding was angry and funny: "Big brother, we are now a team." , why don’t you say you came downstairs to help me, and just watched me get chopped off?”

Shi Qianjin glanced at Su Teng, and said nonchalantly: "My combat power is very poor, and it's useless to go down. I think you are very powerful, and you don't need help. Look at you, isn't it full of hands and feet?"

The only person who witnessed what happened at night was a desperate person.But this also proves that what Du Le Ding experienced is not illusory: "Did you wake up when you heard the sound of horseshoes? I thought no one in the town heard the sound."

"Actually, I wasn't woken up by the sound of horseshoes." Shi Qianjin put her hands in her pockets, her lazy expression slightly serious, "I was woken up by knocking on the door."

Shi Qianjin lived in the same house as Cook and Yingyan. He had no interest in those two people, nor did he have any intention of chatting with the owner, so he went to bed early.

He has a lot of problems. He has to wear an eye mask and wear extremely comfortable silk pajamas when he sleeps. The mattress must be soft and elastic, otherwise he will have difficulty falling asleep like Princess and the Pea.

The unfamiliar bed made him restless, and he tossed and turned for a long time before falling into a light sleep.It is difficult for a person to estimate the time in a hazy state of consciousness, and he does not know how long it has passed. He heard a knock on the door.

At first he thought he was dreaming, so he ignored it.Then the knock on the door became more and more urgent, almost like knocking on the door, and he lifted his blindfold and jumped out of bed.

With his cautious character, of course he first asked who the person outside the door was.However, no one answered, just kept knocking on the door.

Shi Qianjin didn't feel well at the time, so she took two steps back. At this moment, the doorknob began to rattle, obviously the people outside were eager to come in.

He was apprehensive, looked around, picked up a candlestick, and prepared himself for defense. If someone really broke in, he would directly poke him in the face.

The frequency of the doorknob being turned became faster and faster, Shi Qianjin's heart beat faster and faster, and her palms were covered with cold sweat.

At this moment, a horse neighed outside the window, and the moment he subconsciously turned his head to look out the window, the commotion outside the door stopped.

At that time, he had already retreated to the window, so he opened the curtain a crack and looked out, and saw the scene where the armored soldier rushed towards Duleding with his horse and knife.

When the man on the horse raised his knife and slashed towards Du Leding, Shi Qianjin subconsciously blinked his eyes.At that moment, a gust of wind swept the yellow sand across the street, and then only Du Leding was left looking around blankly.

This soul-stirring scene made Shi Qianjin gasp for breath and sweat. He stood still for a long time before slowly walking to the door and holding the doorknob.

Du Leding did not expect that this night, he was not the only one who encountered strange things.He frowned and asked, "What's outside the door?"

Shi Qianjin put away her cynical expression, her eyes were a little solemn: "There is nothing."

He grabbed the doorknob and made mental preparations for a long time. The moment he suddenly opened the door, the candlestick in the other hand also lifted up, just wanting to smash it down without hesitation.

However, there was no one outside the door, and the whole house was silent.

"My first reaction was that I was dreaming," Shi Qianjin rubbed his sore neck, and he has never fallen asleep since then, "Otherwise, how could the others not be awakened by such a loud knock on the door."

Du Leding didn't think that the two of them had hysteria together, but the things they experienced were weird and full of irrationality: "Did you see anyone else this morning?"

Shi Qianjin regained her relaxed expression: "See you. When I got up, the owner's family was eating in the restaurant, and Cook and Yingyan were also there. I asked them, but they didn't hear anything during the night."

Except for Du Leding and Shi Qianjin, everyone else was as usual and was not affected at all.

"Only the two of us are in the same world and the same dream," Du Leding sighed, and suddenly remembered the people living in the third house. He glanced at Su Teng cautiously and said, "Let's go and see the tree. Come on, I don't know if something happened to her."

Su Teng's eyes were still a little distracted, Du Leding really wanted to slap himself twice, he seldom uttered such innocuous words, it hurt his internal organs.

The three of them came to the house where Mu You lived in the next street and knocked on the door. Mu You ran down the stairs with a warm smile on his face. It was obvious that he had slept well that night and was full of energy.

With a camera in her hand, she greeted a few people and said, "I'm going out to take some photos. Do you want to visit Terry Town together?"

"No," although Mu You obviously didn't encounter anything, Du Leding still asked, "How did you sleep last night?"

Sure enough, Mu You said: "Very good, I don't recognize life or bed, as long as I'm sleepy, I can fall asleep. Didn't you sleep well, you seem to have dark circles!"

Du Le Ding said exaggeratedly: "I always hear some inexplicable movements in the middle of the night, and I can't sleep well at all. A few of us at least have acquaintances sleeping next door. You are not afraid alone?"

"Why are you alone?" Mu You tilted his head and said with a smile, "The owner and his family are also there, their children are so cute!"

Just as they were talking, four brats ran past them screaming, Shi Qianjin frowned and stepped aside.He looked at Mu You, and suddenly asked, "Didn't you tie a rope around your wrist last night?"

Mu You was stunned for a moment, and stretched out her white and tender wrist: "It's tied, but I took it off when I took a bath."

"It's just for fun, to feel the festive atmosphere." She paused, stuck out her tongue and said, "Besides, there are seven of us in total, so it doesn't make sense for me to tie a green rope alone."

It seems that except for Du Leding and Shi Qianjin, everyone else did sleep peacefully overnight.Mu You wanted to go to Cook and Yingyan to take pictures together, and ran out excitedly.

Du Leding walked out of the door, stood on the street, looked at the clouds floating in the sky, and said inexplicably, "I seem to have forgotten something."

Su Teng gave a faint "um", he and Shi Qianjin also felt the same way.However, after a night of absurdity, my thoughts have long been confused. Before I figure it out, there will always be a sense of negligence for fear of missing clues.

Du Leding thought about it for a long time but didn't remember what he had forgotten, so he tentatively smiled at Su Teng and said, "Forget it, don't think about it, go ask someone else."

Su Teng's expression was cold and indifferent, and he didn't know if he was still angry.

Du Le Ding put away his smile, his heart was churning for a while, he didn't want to look at Su Teng anymore, he turned his eyes away and said coldly: "That little girl may be the only one who knows about the soul hunter, I don't know her identity, I always feel that Something is wrong."

Su Teng said expressionlessly: "It's a waste of time to ask someone casually. Let's go directly to someone who knows every resident in the whole town."

Charlie ran out after breakfast, and entered the live broadcast room to introduce Terry Town and Soul Hunting Night to the audience.He talked while walking, trying his best to render the legend on the desert into a more mysterious atmosphere, and interacting with the audience was a joy.

Barrage: So where did Ding Ding go?

Many people were asking about Du Leding's whereabouts, and Charlie laughed: "Ding Ding is the most dishonest person I've ever met, and he sneaked away again in the middle of the night!"

Barrage: Needless to say, it must be in the "old place".

Barrage: Another night of passion, I bet seven times.

Barrage: Eight times, bet on a cart of cucumbers.

Charlie talked and laughed with the audience, and gradually walked out of the busy street with people coming and going, and entered a desolate neighborhood.After walking up a slope, the concrete road came to an end, and the ground turned into loess.

"Ding Ding and Su Teng went out early in the morning, and I'll go back and meet them later." Charlie stood on the top of the slope and looked across. A dilapidated old house with peeling paint and gray walls was standing lonely on the hill. on the mound.

Old things, even dead things, can produce their own breath in witnessing the changes of the years.

This house makes people look at it and give birth to a chill.The light above the head seemed to have a limit, and it stopped here in awe.The gray windows are like empty eyes, staring lifelessly at the people coming up the slope.

Although Terry Town is not a particularly wealthy town, and there are not many refurbished houses in the town, most of them are well preserved. At least it can be seen that they have been carefully maintained by generations.

But the house in front of me was much worse, as if it had been forgotten in a barren land, and there was nothing nearby except dry bushes.

Charlie approached curiously, and saw a lot of rubbish piled up in front of the broken house.The audience began to discuss whether this broken house might be the kind of haunted house, and encouraged Charlie to go in and have a look. They couldn't wait to see the anchor screaming and panting.

Charlie was a bit hesitant. He was afraid that the house had an owner, so going in rashly would not count as trespassing?

Barrage: The wooden door is open, you can tell by pushing the door.

Barrage: first ask if there is anyone inside.

Barrage: If Ding Ding was here, he would have already opened the door and entered 23333

Charlie jumped up and leaned on the window sill to look inside. The light in the room was even worse, and it was so dark that he couldn't see clearly, but there seemed to be no one inside.He jumped down and ran to the door, gently pushed open a crack, and called out tentatively, "Is there anyone there?"

After waiting for a while, there was no sound in the broken house. Charlie simply opened the door and walked in. A pungent and choking smell blocked him at the door like an invisible wall.

Charlie held his nose and said, "My God, that smells so bad."

Of course, the audience couldn't smell the smell, and they thought Charlie was scared, and they all said that it was broad daylight, there would be no scary things inside, don't be cowardly, just anus!

Charlie curled his lips: "I'm not cowardly at all, it's just that the smell is too pungent, and I have a very sensitive sense of smell, it's a double blow."

He clutched his mouth and nose and walked in, the floor moaned endlessly, as if it was so rotten that even a light animal like him couldn't bear it.The curtains on the windows hung weakly and were as stained as rags.The old furniture is full of gaps, and even the walls are potholed.

The fireplace hadn't been cleaned for some time, and it was pitch black inside. The chimney was probably blocked, and it made whimpering noises when the wind blew.In the only few rooms, there are some broken sacks piled up.Charlie looked around nervously, but didn't see anything unusual.

The door at the end of the corridor was open, and it was dark inside.Charlie took out the flashlight, walked to the door and looked inside, and a wooden staircase appeared under his feet.

Charlie whispered: "Now I'm going to enter the mysterious storage room and explore the secrets of the basement of the ruined house. All audiences, please follow me closely."

Barrage: Come on, Charlie!

Barrage: Ah, I'm so scared, hold Charlie tight.

Barrage: The stairs are in disrepair, be careful where you step.

Charlie cautiously walked down the handrail, pausing slightly with each step.Fortunately, the stairs were stronger than the outside floor, so he quickly reached the bottom.

There was a bed in the corner of the underground storage room, the quilt on it was terribly dirty, and the cotton wool was exposed.There is a small bedside table next to it, and I don't know what to put on it.

Charlie's attention was drawn to the knocker on the floor, which was obviously a secret door.He was a little apprehensive, but full of curiosity, what kind of secrets would be hidden underground in such a deserted old house?

He hesitated for a moment, but still couldn't help pulling the door knocker to open the hidden door.There was nothingness and darkness inside, and the flashlight could only see the ladder when it swept down, but it couldn't reach the bottom at all. A gust of wind blew up and made him shiver.

Charlie frowned, puzzled by the unfathomable hole.With fear of the dark and narrow space, he decided to close the door first.

Just as he stood on tiptoe to grab the door knocker, there was a gasp like a beast's throat from behind him.His heart tightened, his neck stiffened and he turned his head to look. An extremely terrifying face emerged from the darkness. The green skin was almost peeling off from his face. Those eyes seemed to tear him apart and swallow him alive. Same.

Charlie's hair exploded all over his body, his feet swayed, and he fell into the dark tunnel screaming.
