I rely on my body to push the weird world

Chapter 65 It’s hard to tell the truth from the false
Suddenly a gust of wind blew through the hall, making it feel inexplicably colder.

Snapped!
The candlelight in the lantern in front was extinguished instantly.

The area around the inn suddenly fell into darkness, coldness and deathly silence.

"Go and see what's going on!"

Li Ji whispered.

However, the surrounding darkness was eerily quiet. No one responded, not even a breath was heard.

laugh!
Li Ji frowned, as if he realized something. He suddenly stretched out his palm and a pale flame suddenly burst out.

The air twisted, and the hot light dispelled the cold while illuminating the surrounding darkness.

I saw that the second floor of the inn was covered with cobwebs, moss and weeds grew in the cracks of the corridor floor, and the few rotten wooden boards blocking the road were covered with dust. It looked like it had been abandoned for a long time.

Yan Batian and others around him all disappeared, and he was the only one left on the second floor of the inn.

"Ha! That's interesting."

Li Ji looked around, his eyes full of indifference.

If an ordinary person encountered such a strange situation, he would probably have been scared and fled in panic.

But instead of feeling the slightest bit of fear in his heart, there was instead a lingering sense of ferocity.

"I want to see who you are!"

Li Ji's neck shook, making a crackling sound. He took big steps and began searching the second floor of the inn.

The hallway floorboards made a sour, creaking sound.

He went in and out of one inn room after another, all of which had collapsed doors and were covered with cobwebs and dust, but he still found nothing unusual, nor did he find any trace of Yan Batian and others.

This feeling of depression and irritability made the violent rage in his heart even stronger.

He didn't believe that anyone could kill Yan Batian and others in an instant right under his nose.

If the other party really had such ability, why didn't he come directly to Li Ji instead of using such despicable tricks?

Searching room.

Suddenly, a suppressed gasp was heard from the dark inn room at the end of the second floor.

Li Ji's eyes fixed, he took a step forward, and kicked out, directly kicking the broken door away, causing dust to rustle in the room.

The pale flame in his palm dispels the darkness.

Yan Batian was seen holding up the wall made of mud and bamboo strips with one hand, covering his bloody abdomen with the other hand, and staggering to his feet.

"Yan Batian?"

Li Ji narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Master Sizhu, it's me!"

Yan Batian's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and he said in fear: "Just now when the waiter's lantern went out, I vaguely saw a dark shadow rushing towards me. When I reacted, I found myself lying here without knowing when, and even my abdomen had been severely injured."

"Can I still leave?"

Li Ji asked with a frown.

"This injury is nothing new to me, I can walk away naturally!"

Yan Batian's teeth were almost broken as she said in hatred, "This time, I think we have alerted the enemy. Otherwise, we would not have been caught off guard by this scheme."

"Just walk as long as you can, follow me!"

Li Ji didn't say anything and turned around to search the inn.

Yan Batian followed behind him with staggering steps, panting from time to time, and also started searching.

"Master!"

Suddenly, a voice called out from the southwest corner of the inn.

Li Ji suddenly raised his eyes.

In the darkness in the distance, a figure was seen running towards me quickly, panting and crying, with the sound of a creaking footsteps on the rotten floor.

"Master Si, they are dead... all dead! All our people are dead!"

"Judge Wen?!"

Li Ji recognized the person and said in a deep voice: "All our people are dead? Do you know what you are talking about?"

"Just now when the waiter's lantern went out, I saw many ghosts jumping out of the darkness on all sides, surrounding us in three layers inside and outside. If I hadn't been scared and slipped, I would have fallen into the corner of the inn lobby and escaped. Otherwise, I would have died here."

Judge Wen's tone was filled with fear.

"Ghosts everywhere? Are you sure?" Li Ji frowned increasingly.

He turned his head to look to the side and saw Yan Batian, who was leaning against the wall with one hand and covering his bloody abdomen with the other, with a pale face.

Then he looked at Judge Wen who was in panic in front of him.

Yan Batian also said just now that when the waiter’s lantern went out, a black shadow rushed towards him.

Now Judge Wen said that it was not a single black shadow, but ghosts coming from all directions, with three layers inside and three layers outside.

There seems to be... a difference in what the two say.

What’s more important is that Li Ji didn’t notice any ghost from beginning to end, as if he was not encountering the same scene as these two people.

"My subordinate is sure!"

Judge Wen gasped in a decisive tone.

"But I just searched all the way down from the second floor of the inn, and I didn't find any bodies. Are you trying to trick me?!"

Li Ji spoke in a low and heavy voice, looking directly at Judge Wen with sharp eyes.

"How dare I? If you don't believe me, you can go with me to check it out. If I have the slightest intention of deceiving you, you can chop off my head!"

Judge Wen's expression suddenly changed.

"it is good!"

Li Ji's eyes were indifferent.

He turned around and walked directly up the creaky, rotten stairs toward the second floor.

Yan Batian held the stairs with one hand, covered his bloody abdomen with the other, gritted his teeth, and followed closely.

Judge Wen's expression flickered, with confusion, fear, and terror in his eyes... but he also stepped onto the stairs.

Li Ji walked up to the second floor step by step. The pale flame in his palm suddenly rose, and the dazzling firelight illuminated the entire desolate second floor.

Immediately.

His pupils shrank suddenly.

Large amounts of blood were splattered on the entire wall, making it extremely red, and the smell of blood was strong and pungent.

One hideous and twisted corpse after another lay in the corridor on the second floor. There were constables from the Demon Suppression Division, constables from Black Stone Town, and even... Yan Batian who died with his eyes open.

Yan Batian had already died here?
An inexplicable chill pierced Li Ji's spine.

He suddenly turned around and looked at Yan Batian, who had followed him all the way in the search, covering his bloody abdomen.

Behind him, at the rotten and dilapidated staircase, there was only Judge Wen, who was cautious, covering his mouth and nose and pretending to vomit. Where was Yan Batian? !
"Judge Wen, where is Yan Batian who just followed us?"

Li Ji asked with a grim expression.

"Master Si, what did you say? Weren't there just the two of us?!"

Judge Wen shuddered all over, his scalp tingled, and he replied with horror in his eyes.

Li Ji's heart sank.

He suppressed the uncontrollable rage in his chest and had a hint of retreating.

This inn is so weird!

The disappeared waiter!

Yan Batian, whose authenticity is hard to tell!

After a thorough cleanup, the abandoned second floor, which was supposed to be empty, was actually filled with corpses...

He couldn't even tell whether the trembling Judge Wen in front of him was true or false.

Li Ji remained silent, turned around and walked away, walking up the creaking stairs, wanting to leave the inn.

"Master, have you found anything?"

Judge Wen hurriedly followed.

"No! Let's get out of here first."

Li Ji said without turning his head.

"leave?"

Judge Wen, who was following closely behind Li Ji, suddenly laughed silently, with the corners of his mouth stretched all the way to his ears, revealing a row of sharp teeth.

His fingertips silently turned dark blue, as if they were soaked in poison.
