Above the gray fog

There was a corpse above him, a tall male mummy, with tattered clothes on his body. The stench that Lin Shan had been smelling came from him.

A dark white spear quickly condensed in Lin Shan's hand. He remembered the words on the parchment and did not attack immediately.

The mummy did not look at him, but just looked forward. It was about fifteen meters above him, floating quietly. Lin Shan moved a few steps to the side and the mummy also moved.

From the mummy, Lin Shan could feel an extremely deadly threat, as if he could easily kill himself.

"This is weird..." Lin Shan said secretly. Obviously, the vague fluctuations on his body were the spiritual power that only weirds had. Although he didn't know how strong it was, Lin Shan was definitely not an opponent at this moment. This kind of humanoid weird with a physical body was not the first time he saw it, but every time he saw it, he could realize his weakness.

Fortunately, this kind of weird action has its own rules. Lin Shan guessed that as long as he didn't cause damage and didn't move the things here, this weird would most likely not attack him.

Taking a deep breath, Lin Shan continued to walk inside. Now that there was no beacon to guide him, he could only explore on his own. The parchment said that he could be rescued, and there was no time limit, which meant that Liu Heng and others were not dead, but might just be trapped. He still had plenty of time.

Lin Shan: [Can you locate Liu Heng? ]

Parchment: [You need to pay twenty years of life. ]

Twenty years... forget it. As long as Liu Heng is still alive, he will find him if he searches for a while, and he still has a pendulum to use.

Although he still has more than 780 years of life, there will definitely be a big expense in the later promotion, and his life cannot be used so easily.

It would be best if Liu Heng could be saved. If he couldn't save him, then he had no choice. He couldn't cut off his own promotion path for Liu Heng.

Suddenly, a pavilion appeared in front of him, and in front of the pavilion there was an ancient house with a large area.

The pavilion was not big and empty, but the ancient house was full of weirdness.

"This is the ancient house that the old grass spirit mentioned. This architectural style..."

Lin Shan took a step and disappeared directly. When he reappeared, he was already at the door of the ancient house. He looked up and saw that the mummy that had been following him suddenly disappeared.

Looking around, he didn't see the mummy anymore, so Lin Shan ignored him.

Lin Shan found that since entering this bamboo forest, his spiritual power has been severely suppressed, but his supernatural power seems to be abnormally active, and the speed of supernatural recovery is faster than outside.

This bamboo forest is either a strange field, or the whole bamboo forest is actually a single weirdness. Compared with the first one, Lin Shan is more inclined to believe that the whole bamboo forest is a single weirdness.

If this is true...

The mummy is a weirdness in weirdness, a double weirdness...This is the first time Lin Shan has seen such a situation.

Lin Shan looked around everything outside the ancient house.

Red lanterns, red couplets, and some dense footprints at the door. At least four people have been here recently. Because there is a thick layer of ash on the ground, the footprints are very clear. Lin Shan can even judge that these four people are three men and one woman.

Retracting his sight, a crystal blue light flashed in his eyes. With the rapid consumption of supernatural power, the divination characteristics of the pendulum were pushed to the extreme by him, and the crystal blue pendant spun rapidly in front of his eyes.

The next second.

Click! A light sound.

The pendant directly cracked a gap. Lin Shan was startled and quickly put away the pendant. This pendant is the eyeball of the Sequence 8 Weird Crow. Because it can save the supernatural consumption of divination, he has been carrying it with him. This is the first time that the divination has a crack...

However, he can confirm that Liu Heng and others have indeed entered this ancient house. There is another force in the ancient house that is blocking divination.

Lin Shan put his hand against the door and exerted a little force. The door did not move at all.

At this time, his eyes were attracted by the large iron ring on the door.

"The bamboo forest is completely weird, the mummy is also completely weird, and now even this old house is a complete weirdness... This place is really a gathering place for weirdness."

"Is there a possibility that they are actually a whole..."

"This door knocker..."

Lin Shan subconsciously held a door knocker and knocked on the door three times gently.

"Bang, bang, bang..." The sound of three iron and wood hitting each other echoed nearby, but the big wooden door remained motionless.

Just when Lin Shan wanted to knock for the fourth time, a blue light flashed in his eyes, and he subconsciously let go of his hand. This was a warning from the pendulum. He felt that something terrible would happen if he knocked again.

"Why do I suddenly want to knock on the door?"

"Knocking on the door is a matter of course when entering someone else's house."

"This door knocker has a suggestive effect..."

Lin Shan looked away and stopped looking at the door knocker, thinking carefully about the purpose of the door knocker in his heart.

"I just knocked on the door three times, but it didn't respond. Then I was eager to knock on the fourth time."

"Except for the Chinese, I think no other race can achieve the same architectural style... Each race has different characteristics."

"And this style is not used even in the current tribe."

"Being able to see it in this place... does this mean that we are not the first group of people?"

"Even the tribe's artifact admits that we are the first group of humans, and the original body of the tribe's artifact is also placed in the tribe's land. What mystery is there?"

"Perhaps there were indeed human beings before us, but they no longer exist... The old man in the Purple Soul Flower Forest and the mummy just now are good proof."

"They may be the ancient human race, but I don't know why they became like this."

Lin Shan was thinking about the cause and effect of all this, and at the same time he did not forget to observe the surrounding environment. He flew into the air, intending to fly directly in.

He had his own guess about the suggestive behavior of the big iron ring just now.

In Chinese Feng Shui, there is a saying that if a person knocks three times and a ghost knocks four times, the big iron ring wants him to knock four times and enter the ancient house as a ghost.

If there are no living people in this ancient house, then there is no problem in entering as a ghost.

However, there is a detail in this. Generally speaking, ghosts will not knock on the door, because they have no entity and can pass through walls and fly. There is no need to knock on the door.

According to traditional folk saying, there is only one kind of ghost that knocks on the door, and that is Black and White Impermanence. Black and White Impermanence comes to ask for life, which means that only life-seeking ghosts will knock on the door. If the door opens after knocking four times, then the door will open. He will go in as a life-seeking ghost.

Then he will definitely become the enemy of the ancient house, and the result can be imagined.
