Tomb Raider's Notes of Qilin City Lord

Chapter 337
337 Chapter 337 Back Hall

A hazy and strange green light approached Wu Xie silently. Soon he felt a ghostly hazy green light flashing behind him. He turned around and saw it reflexively. Light came through the back door of the front hall, and in the back hall opposite the well, from behind the decayed carved window.

Wu Xie was certain that this was the lone lamp he had seen before. At this moment, he was so close to it, and the fear in his heart reignited again. He felt that his whole body was cold, and even his brain was not working well.

I shook my brother's arm and asked, "Brother, what is this green light..." He just patted my little face gently, meaning don't be afraid.

I saw that I didn't see An Ningling's image in the spiritual power video, so I stood up slightly and faced the little brother, waved my hand, took a bunch of spiritual seedlings and waved them gently in front of me and the little brother, and our eyes lit up with golden light. Flash, An Ningling came into our eyes immediately, she was floating next to Wu Xie, I smiled and blinked at the little brother, he gently pulled my little wrist and let me lean against him.

We looked closely and found that there was some very imperceptible jitter in the light, and this jitter made the entire patio look green and ghostly.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Wu Xie felt as if he had entered another dimension all of a sudden. He couldn't help but swallowed his saliva and said to himself, what is supposed to come will always come, and you can't escape even if you want to!

Wu Xie tried to calm down as much as possible, but his whole body was already stiff with fear. He moved forward bit by bit tremblingly and leaned towards the back hall.

He walked out of the front hall, passed the patio, and finally arrived at the back hall. He felt that he had swum a very long distance in the middle. Looking at the distance, which was only about twenty steps, he felt that he had swum enough. A good 5 minutes.

The door to the back hall was closed tightly, and several carved fans in the windows had completely collapsed. There was a green light inside, but it was still unclear.

Wu Xie carefully raised the lamp and shined it inside. The moment the light swept across, a strange shadow appeared in front of his eyes, which almost made his heartbeat stop. An Ningling also looked nervously in front of him.

Wu Xie looked carefully and found that it was just a shadow. He cursed in his heart, "Damn it, I thought it was a cyan woman's face. I was scared to death."

The degree of decay and collapse of the back hall was exactly the same as that of the front hall, but except for the debris piled on the ground, it was almost empty.

There is also a section in the middle of the back hall, and a dark green light faintly shines through from behind the horizontal wall.

Looking at the dilapidated old house and the weird atmosphere, it looked like something out of a ghost story. I guess Wu Xie would think the same way. I whispered in a low voice: "Fortunately, Wu Xie can't see An Ningling. Otherwise, in this atmosphere, it will really scare him."

I thought to myself, luckily I slipped through the passage just now. If I were asked to walk through the interior of the ancient village, I would not be able to bear it. However, the things I saw that looked like ghost hands seemed to be nothing compared to the ruins of the ancient village. What a great thing, I whispered it to my little brother after these came, but he didn't have a clue yet.

Wu Xie looked at the green light and couldn't help but think of the plot in the Liaozhai story. The scholar with the oil lamp was reading at night, and the female ghost floated over and looked at the lights outside the house.But now the position has been changed. The scholar is looking at the fire in the house. There may really be a female ghost in the house who was drowned at that time.

Wu Xie looked up and down the back hall, and he had probably figured out the structure. He thought that if there was a conflict, he could at least run away quickly. Just when he was about to enter through the window, the cyan light group appeared. It quickly dimmed again until it went out.

Wu Xie's heart suddenly tightened, as if someone had suddenly strangled his neck. He held his breath, wondering if that thing had noticed him?

I immediately thought that this thing must be a water ghost. What would he do to me? Why was he hiding? Is he preparing to launch a surprise attack after avoiding it?If this thing lurks and attacks me, I have absolutely no chance of winning. But if it goes by like this, what if that thing is really a water ghost? Isn't it looking for death?
The fear made him keep thinking wildly. He thought that no one knew that he was in this ancient village now. If his feet were suddenly stuck or his oxygen was exhausted, he would definitely die here. He would not be killed for hundreds of years. Finding himself alone and helpless, he struggled with whether he should really risk everything like that, or should he think more carefully?But as I thought about it, I became discouraged. The courage I had just evaporated, and I suddenly didn't dare to go in again.

An Ningling tilted her head and looked at Wu Xie, who was thinking about something blankly. Knowing that he was hesitant again, she shook her head helplessly.

Wu Xiejue's idea seemed to be good if he just retreated and then asked some people to come together again, but maybe he wouldn't have the courage after his expiration. He couldn't help but start to miss Pan Zi, thinking about it. If he were here, he would definitely be a big driving force. Although he has been trained for these years, he is still different compared to these people. I thought that my experience was rich enough, but courage is such a thing , it seems to have little to do with experience, but if you don't continue, maybe Menyouping, Xiaoxun and Fatty will really disappear from your life. How can that be possible...

Seeing his hesitation, Aning Ling wanted to push him and shook her head slightly. As soon as she shook her head, she noticed that there was a clear handprint printed on the window frame, and this handprint seemed to be interesting. Then she smiled faintly, stretched out her hands, and held Wu Xie's head very gently, making him think that he was just floating along the current, and let him face the window frame.Soon, Wu Xie found the fingerprint. The fingerprint on the sediment was very clear, and it was obviously made not long ago. He was afraid that it was his own mistake, so he reached out and compared it. An Ningling Seeing that he had made new progress, he nodded with satisfaction, crossed his arms and continued to look at him.

Wu Xie found out from this comparison that two fingers in the fingerprint were very long, and he knew immediately that they were left behind by the Menyou bottle.

I was stunned for a moment, and then I made another gesture where I pressed my fingerprints. That action happened to be the action of opening the window frame, but I became confused again. I had to be several hundred meters away from where I first came down. , he took off his helmet, ran to the ancient village, and broke open the window frame here?How is this possible, impossible to travel for such a long time?Could it be that he also became a water ghost?The disbelief in my heart became more and more intense.

Thinking of Mengyou Piao, I suddenly felt certain. I had promised to help him, how could he turn into a water ghost?It's so sudden, no, I can't accept it.

He thought that if Menyou Ping really turned into a water ghost, then the fat man who took off his helmet might also have changed. Then Xiaoxun who followed Menyou Ping might be just like him. After discovering all this, she might follow him. Menyou Ping followed him in life and death, and he who never left him also became a water ghost!

Thinking that if Menyou Ping hadn't saved her several times in the past, she would have died a long time ago. Now she just took a risk for him, why not?Is my life so valuable?The worst case scenario is that if you die, you will become a water ghost. In this way, the few of you will be together forever and won't be lonely. The three gentlemen will form a trio of water ghosts. Menyouping and Xiaoxun can also get married and have several children. Water ghost, everyone has renovated this ancient village and used it as our underwater villa, a paradise. It seems very comfortable.

Although his absurd thoughts forced him to calm down, it did not make his fear lessen. He even became more frightened. His whole body began to tremble almost uncontrollably, and he could not suppress it at all. However, the belief in his heart became stronger and stronger, making him take it with him. With this feeling of fear, he swam into the back hall through the window.

As soon as he entered, he immediately thought, oh... isn't it impolite to do this?Should I knock on the door first?In this way, people may think that he is a good and well-educated young man, and they will let him live.

After thinking about it, he slapped himself in the mouth to calm himself down.

The situation in the back hall was exactly the same as in the front hall. He walked around and avoided it bit by bit, and the green light didn't light up again. When he was almost seeing the situation after avoiding it, he suddenly stopped, his hands shaking so much. I can barely hold the searchlight.

The trembling could not be suppressed, and the lights shook with the rhythm, making the person in front of him look like he was about to fall, so he had to use his other hand to help.

An Ningling quietly helped him hold his wrist, steady the light, and carefully took the last few steps with Wu Xie who was forcing herself to move forward.

At that moment, An Ningling saw that he was as stiff as a puppet. The nerves in his whole body were highly tense. It seemed that he was mentally prepared to see any horrific situation when he turned around.

As the following situation really came into view, Wu Xiejue felt that the blood vessels in his brain were about to burst.

However, when I shined a search light on it, I could only see a piece of white collapsed material and nothing else.

I suddenly cursed in my heart, "Fuck!"Wu Xie felt like he was being teased, but this only made his nerves even more tense.

He looked around and found that the entire inner hall was completely closed, and the back was empty. There was only one gate that should lead to the back courtyard, which was where the main street was cut off as he had seen outside.

If the thing that glowed green was here before, it must be still there now, and it must be hiding.

He held his breath and swam over, making defensive movements, and looked under the collapsed object to see if there was something pressed down, but it was too messy to tell clearly.As he looked at it, he suddenly spotted the only standing thing. There was a screen in the corner behind the back hall.

I don’t know what kind of material the screen was made of, but it didn’t rot. However, the hinges could no longer support it, and it was tilted crookedly, losing its shape.When the search light shined on it, his scalp became numb little by little.Behind the screen, a strange figure is printed.
