Those years when I hunted demons in Dali Temple

Chapter 852 'Marionette'

After the Yellow-robed Reverend finished speaking, Pei Shisan Niang involuntarily went out.

Pei Shisanniang, who was very clear-headed, looked at her body in horror. What she did was completely different from what she had expected.

What frightened her even more was that no one stopped her from walking out of the cave. There were many people dressed in military uniforms outside. They were clearly guarding her very strictly, but they treated her as a member of the mountain and no one cared about her no matter where she went.

Until she walked out of the cave.

There was a vast expanse of whiteness in front of my eyes.

Pei Shisanniang remembered that when Yulang brought her in, they passed through the mist in a flash.

Her body carried herself as she stepped into the clouds.

Only then did Pei Shisan Niang realize that the clouds were so vast that there was no end in sight.

Her face immediately turned pale.

Yulang took her across the endless clouds in the blink of an eye. How far were the countless scenes she had seen along the way? Could she go back to Chang'an again in her life?

Pei Shisan Niang stepped into the fog.

But she saw several people like her around her, both men and women.

Their goal is the same as mine, to step into the clouds, pass through the clouds, and return to their hometown.

No one had discussed it before, but their goal was the same as Pei Shisan Niang's: to leave this hellhole and return to their hometown.

Pei Shisan Niang did not communicate with anyone. She was naive but not stupid. The identities of the people here were unknown. If there were one or two people with bad intentions, perhaps her end would be even worse than it is now.

We had only walked into the clouds for a quarter of an hour.

"boom!"

Pei Shisan Niang and the others all looked sideways, as someone fell down without any warning.

The man who fell down seemed to have just come to his senses. He held his throat with one hand and reached out to Pei Shisan Niang and the others with the other.

"Help. Save me."

This man's miserable condition reminded Pei Shisan Niang of the cat she had raised at home for many years, which eventually died no matter how hard she tried to save it.

She wanted to go back and give that person a hand.

But the strange thing is that she has no control over her body at all.

She was dragged deeper into the clouds.

Pei Shisan Niang looked at the others and saw that they were all doing the same thing as her, moving deeper into the forest in strange postures.

Everyone's figure was sluggish, just like the shadow plays she had seen before.

Each of them is like a puppet, held by an invisible string that secretly controls their bodies.

Suddenly.

Pei Shisanniang thought about the medicine she had been taking during this period.

It must be the drug that controls them.

Pei Shisan Niang couldn't help but feel sad. If the situation continued like this, what would happen if she returned to Chang'an?

But soon, she cheered up again. Even so, she wanted to go home and take another look.

Pei Shisan Niang and others were traveling through the clouds and mist, unable to see the way forward or the way back.

As more and more people fell down.

Just when everyone was in despair, they actually saw an exit.

Although Pei Shisanniang's body was out of control, the joy in their eyes was reflected on their faces. Their bodies, which were originally "held by the strings", seemed to be injected with their own souls, and each of them became more and more flexible.

All the people who survived the disaster ran out of the clouds.

Only then did Pei Shisan Niang dare to look and see that the remaining people were less than half of the ones who came out with them.

She didn't even dare to think about why those people died and why they were able to escape.

As long as we get through the clouds, there will be a glimmer of hope for life.

Pei Shisan Niang didn't dare to think about it, nor did she dare to think about it any further.

She had no communication with those people throughout the whole process, so naturally they would not go the same way after coming out.

The group of people stood at the exit of the clouds and mist, each heading towards an unknown future.

Pei Shisanniang walked for a while. She had only one piece of cake left from the food she stole in the nameless cave. If she wanted to continue walking, she had to find food first, otherwise she would be unable to move forward.

Just as Pei Shisanniang was thinking this, she saw a little child not far away.

She was delighted, and her body was able to move according to her will.

Could it be that the conditions for "pulling the string" are only in that cloud?

Pei Shisan Niang lifted her skirt and almost ran to the child.

"Young Master, is there any house nearby? I have run out of dry food and would like to exchange for some."

The child looked about seven or eight years old. He looked Pei Shisan Niang up and down.

"My home is only a mile away, sister, just follow me."

Pei Shisanniang just felt it was very strange, but couldn't tell why.

For this reason, she was particularly careful.

If it were in the past, she would definitely not be on guard, but after meeting Yulang, she could no longer trust a stranger wholeheartedly.

What's more, this child appeared near the clouds and was unharmed, which was a bit strange no matter how you thought about it, but she was really hungry and the other party was a child, so Pei Shisan Niang still followed him.

"What's your name, young man?"

The child grumbled, "Sister, why didn't you tell me first, what's your name?"

Pei Shisanniang blurted out, "Fei Yi."

The child looked up at the sky and said, "Flying clothes? How can clothes fly in the sky? Sister's name is really funny."

His words sounded innocent, but there was no childish innocence in his eyes.

Pei Shisanniang's heart sank, but she managed to calm herself down, "Young Master, you haven't told me your name yet."

"My name is Gousheng!"

Pei Shisanniang: ".Young Master Gousheng, do you know where this place is?"

Gou Sheng: "We are in Yongzhou. The place you just came out of is called Yunwu Mountain. Hey, Sister Feiyi, how did you get out of Yunwu Mountain? We locals don't dare to go in. I heard there are monsters that eat people. People went in there because they didn't believe in it. No one has ever walked out."

Yongzhou!

Pei Shisan Niang almost screamed.

They had never traveled far, but they were very familiar with Lingnan.

How many families have been broken up because of Lingnan.

Most of the people here are exiled criminals.

Pei Shisan Niang didn't dare to have any more hope.

What's more, this place is only separated from the cave behind Yunwu Mountain by a cloud.

She didn't dare to gamble again.

Pei Shisan Niang immediately thought of the storybook "The Legend of the Red Fox" that she had read, and immediately made up a story.

"A hero was looking for someone inside and happened to bring me out."

The child nodded thoughtfully, "Sister is so lucky."

"Yes, sister is lucky to have met the hero and the remaining young man."
