At dusk, the sun is no longer glaring, it just fills the town with soft light, and people walk leisurely in the square from time to time.

The two sat facing each other.

"Then the five of us..."

"It's four people, my lord priest, you're wrong again!"

The little girl raised her brown hair to correct the mistake of the young man opposite.

Yi Mian was stunned for a moment: "Really? I'm sorry..."

Aryan blinked her bright eyes, patted the chair under her, and asked, "Well, it's not important, and then what? Where did the sound come from?"

"Sorry little sister, I haven't found it yet."

Zhou Fen walked over from behind the two of them, bent slightly and said to Arya, "However, we will go again at night, and I will definitely give you the answer this time."

The little girl looked at her, jumped off the bench, and nodded old-fashionedly: "Well, I understand, the warrior in the storybook needs several times to defeat the dragon."

"come on! Come on!"

She shook hands, waved at several people, and ran away.

Li Chengshang looked away from the girl's back, and sat across from Yi Mian: "How is it?"

Yi Mian understood, took out the two small bottles and put them together: "It can't be seen from the outside."

This is the holy water bottle found in the wooden house, and the new holy water given to him by the bishop today. It should have been recycled for a long time. After washing, the bottle is full of old scratches.

Hearing this, Zhao Mo picked it up, poured some of the liquid in his hand, and sniffed it curiously.

Zhou Fen frowned when she saw it: "Hey, aren't you afraid of being poisoned?"

"Can't it? It smells like tap water." Zhao Mo quickly shook his hand and wiped his pants again.

Yi Mian took the bottle over: "Actually, it's just ordinary river water, but it's been 'blessed' by the statue."

Zhao Mo: "Blessing? How to bless?"

Yi Mian said succinctly: "Place it on the prayer altar all night."

"Well, although I don't see any use for it...let's take it with me first."

The four of them sat on the bench and discussed the few clues they had.

The sky was getting darker, and there were fewer and fewer pedestrians on the road. Because of the strange sound, almost no one dared to go outside at night.

When it was pitch black and no one could be seen, the voice finally sounded again.

"coming!"

The small noise was sent to their ears along with the wind, and Zhao Mo cheered up, "Let's go!"

Several people sneaked into the wooden house with ease.

There are two broken pieces of wood on the table, which are very conspicuous on the dusty panel, attracting everyone's attention as soon as they enter the door.

Zhao Mo picked it up and looked at it: "What is this? Is it available during the day?"

Yi Mian picked up the other piece, and found that they could be put together tightly, as if they were purposely torn apart, and she muttered:

"The section is very clean, it should be just broken."

Li Chengshang thought more: "Is there anyone else here today?"

Several people looked at each other in blank dismay. The residents of the town all looked timid. They shunned the sound and dared not step into this room. No one thought about guarding the door of the house all day. I really don’t know if someone came in. Pass.

Zhou Fen: "Even if someone came, what does it mean he left this?"

Zhao Mo gave full play to his imagination: "It must be to give us a hint, copy? Paste? Mitosis? Reunion?"

Li Chengshang gave him a disgusted look, and continued to play with these two pieces of wood.

They are all survivors who have experienced several games, and no one dares to let go of the clues that suddenly appear.

But after thinking for a long time, there was no clue. Instead, the strange voice became louder and louder. They could only keep the wooden block on the table and look for another main clue.

The light was dim, and the only dim light source seemed to be absorbed by the wall, making it difficult to see clearly.

"Ouch!"

With the exclamation of a female voice and the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, the kerosene lamp fell to the floor and rolled twice, the flame flickering continuously.

"what happened?"

"Are you okay?"

Everyone was startled, and looked over one after another, vaguely seeing someone falling to the ground.

"it's okay no problem……"

Zhou Fen quickly explained that he was only focused on touching the wall, and accidentally tripped over the raised wooden board under his feet.

In the terrifying game field, dead people are nothing new, and bumps and bumps are not too common. The others told them to be careful, but they still turned to study their clues.

Zhou Fen responded, and slowly sat up on the ground, probably knocked to the waist, she put her hands on the floor and turned over.

The moment she turned around, the girl suddenly paused, instead of standing up, she kept maintaining this posture.

Until Zhao Mo found out, he knelt down and shone a light on her: "What's wrong, is it a sprained ankle?"

Only then did Zhou Fen come back to her senses, shook her head, and slowly pressed her ears to the ground under the strange gazes of others.

"You, do you feel...the sound seems to come from below?"

Everyone lowered their heads unconsciously, looking at the pitch-black floor beneath their feet.

Zhao Mo's breath was stagnant, and he raised his foot reflexively as if stepping into a trap.

Li Chengshang was the first to react, and immediately knelt down on one knee, lowered his head as much as possible, and listened carefully.

"Yes, we have searched both the first and second floors. There is absolutely no hiding place. From the layout point of view, it makes sense to have a basement!"

He stared unblinkingly at the floor, as if trying to make a hole in it.

"Go borrow a tool and break the floor?"

Zhao Mo is a man of action, he stomped his feet vigorously, and the hollow "drive" sound further confirmed their guess.

Zhou Fen frowned and said, "This house is not solid. What if you smashed the floor?"

"That……"

"no need."

Yi Mian squatted down, put the lamp into the hole that was revealed at some point, and said to others.

When the few people were discussing, he had already walked to the floor where the girl had just fallen, and he held the wooden board with a raised corner and lifted it up, and there was a friction sound somewhere, but it was not obvious under the noisy background sound.

Zhou Fen rubbed her waist with her hands, her eyes widened slightly: "So that's how it is!"

Zhao Mo walked over, and curiously lifted the lifted block, the whole plank remained motionless as if it was growing in the ground.

"Fuck, it's a bit strong, how did you do it?"

He took a light around Yi Mian and took a look around Yi Mian, You Qi glanced at Yi Mian's not-so-muscular arm.

The black-haired young man said calmly: "It's easy, maybe the mechanism will be fixed after it is activated."

"Oh." Zhao Mo nodded casually, and turned his attention to the entrance of the cave again. "Then let's go down quickly. After searching for this broken place for almost three days, it's outrageous."

"...Let's go."

Li Chengshang looked at Yi Mian with complicated eyes, but he didn't find anything unusual in the other's expression, so he could only look away in doubt.

The underground adventure imagined by several people did not come true. They walked through the earthen stairs that were not too long. The basement was unexpectedly small, and it was roughly estimated that it was just enough for four people to stand side by side.

The voice suddenly died away as they walked down, as if stingy to give them another reminder.

The surrounding area is full of soil and fragmentary hard blocks, regardless of the walls and floors, as if a hole dug out temporarily, which has not had time to be reinforced.

Feeling like stepping on a cobblestone road under her feet, Yi Mian knelt down and brushed the floating dirt with her hands, picked up a small piece of hard object, and put it under the lamp to examine it carefully.

Off-white, hard as iron, slender in shape, slightly rounded at both ends.

He had a bad guess.

"Don't go."

Yi Mian picked up a few more pieces, put them in his hand one by one for comparison, raised his head with a cold face, and stopped the other survivors who were still walking around.

"Under our feet are human bones."

The four of them gathered around the table, on which were bones, holy water, and brown paper books stacked together.

The bones in the ground are connected into pieces, which is a road that is really piled up with corpses, even many bones are almost stacked together, sticking into a big piece, and it is hard to tell how many people died.

"...they were driven from the upstairs to the downstairs, and no one delivered food anymore. This is the tomb specially prepared for them."

Li Chengshang flipped through the kraft paper and analyzed,

"It can be seen as a death sentence, maybe they made a mistake, or violated some rules in the town."

Zhao Mo put the holy water bottles in a row: "Who would have thought that they would all die, and they should bring this stuff with them if they didn't bring food!"

Apart from human bones, this bottle is the most excavated from the basement, and it is better preserved than the bones.

Zhou Fen thought of her mission: "Yes, they are all believers, that's the point."

Li Chengshang shook his head incomprehensibly: "The current residents are all believers."

"It's the problem of the believers!"

Zhao Mo slapped the table and vowed,

"Think about the church, how can there be a church with that kind of god? Even if there is, it is more like an evil god, right? Isn't it normal for it to control the believers to kill each other?!"
