The sudden change left everyone a little at a loss.

While pushing and shoving, Wang Xiaoyi and Cheng Wen came to the well at the door.

"Don't look." Ruan Lanzhu stretched out his hand to remind them, but it was too late. The hair that flew out from the well instantly pulled Cheng Wen and the other man into the well.

The proprietress seemed frightened and staggered back, the handkerchief in her hand falling and moving in the wind like a fluttering butterfly.

Mingming, with the corners of her mouth hidden under the handkerchief, showed pride at first.

"Don't go and die." Niao Niao grabbed Ling Jiushi who wanted to go forward, and pulled his sleeve and walked into the inn.

Ling Jiushi had been sitting on the sofa without saying a word since he entered the house. Niao Niao took a sip of tea from the cup and said to him, "Jiushi, this is how it is in the inner door. You have to get used to it."

"Habit? Are you used to watching people in need without helping?" Ling Jiushi's tone was not good, it could even be said to be a bit bad.

"To watch someone in need without helping means to stand by and do nothing even if you have the ability to do so. You don't count as that." Feeling Ling Jiushi's anger, Niao Niao's face also turned cold.

"What about you? What about him? Why are you standing by and watching?"

"Ling Jiushi, we don't seem to be familiar with each other yet. You can blame me."

Niao Niao looked at Ling Jiu with a slightly cold gaze, and said in a cold tone: "What makes you think that I am a good person?"

Ling Jiushi was stunned. Yes, they had never met each other before.

The atmosphere began to become heavy. Ling Jiushi looked a little embarrassed at this moment. He hunched his waist, not knowing what he was thinking.

There was a faint stubble on Ling Jiushi's chin. He glanced at Niao Niao out of the corner of his eye and was the first to break the silence, saying, "Sorry, I'm a little emotional."

"The situation inside the door is ever-changing. If you want to save everyone, you may have to risk your own life." Ruan Lanzhu crossed his hands, placed them on his lips, and explained patiently.

"I just want to save the person in front of me." Ling Jiushi felt frustrated and depressed.

Niao Niao unwrapped a lollipop, handed it over, and said in a slow tone: "It's too late, stay alert, the danger is not over yet. The door god may kill people again."

In the dead of night, Ling Jiushi seemed to hear someone crying.

Awakened by the noise, he opened the door and walked towards the source of the sound.

Niao Niao, who was lying on the bed, opened her eyes, kicked Ruan Lanzhu's foot, and said in a deep voice: "Follow me."

Beside the railing, the proprietress covered her face and cried, looking very pitiful. Ling Jiushi wanted to leave awkwardly, but was stopped by the proprietress.

Seeing that she was intentionally guiding Ling Jiushi to lean on the railing, Ruan Lanzhu slowly stepped forward and teased, "My friend is the kindest person. Madam boss, please take good care of him, so that no one will take advantage of his kindness."

"Of course." The lady boss's expression froze, she stopped crying and nodded slightly, saying, "In that case, I'll leave first."

"After a while, take a look at the wall outside the railing." Niao Niao leaned on the railing and tilted her head to signal him to look down.

On the wall, the door god in white clothes and black hair was like a gecko, clinging tightly to the wall and disappearing into the darkness in a short while.

Ling Jiushi took a few steps back in fear and said in a trembling voice, "She was just down there listening to us talking?"

"If my guess is correct, the two of them have a close relationship." Niao Niao looked at Ling Jiushi, who was like a frightened bird, and said with a smile: "Did you do anything inappropriate just now?"

"of course not."

"I swear!" Seeing that she didn't believe him, Ling Jiushi explained anxiously: "I wanted to leave when I saw her crying alone."

"She's teasing you. We've been following you since you left the house." Ruan Lanzhu took back his hand from the railing and joked, "You think she won't agree. She only wants your life."

After the episode, the three of them went back to the room one after another to continue resting.

The coffin maker was not exaggerating. When they arrived, there was indeed an extra coffin in the yard.

"Are we going to send the coffin to the village chief now?" Xiong Qi was a little confused.

Ruan Lanzhu patted the coffin and said, "If my guess is correct, the key is in the coffin."

"Where are the keys?" After a night, Ling Jiushi felt much better.

"Didn't I tell you that you can only get out after you find the door and the key?"

After working together to open the coffin, the glowing key floated in the air.

Niao Niao held it in her hand and tilted her head to look at Xiong Qi and Xiao Ke who wanted to take action.

"Do you two want to take action?"

"We all found this key, why do you take it?"

"I know where the door is."

At the wellhead, Xiong Qi said doubtfully, "Are you sure the door is down there?"

"But how can we avoid the door god?" Xiao Ke did not doubt what Niao Niao said, but there was a door god in the well, which was a fact that everyone could see.

"There is bait." Ruan Lanzhu and Niao Niao smiled at each other. They were not just doing this for Ling Jiushi.

I just wanted to kill the wolf and happened to meet him.

The body of the wolf, which was larger than a human, fell to the bottom of the well and was pulled away by the door god a moment later.

Jumping into the well, I found myself surrounded by man-made caves and a winding passage inside, and I didn't know where it led to.

"Here." Niao Niao took the key and pointed at the wall, and a door appeared out of nowhere on the wall.

Seeing this, Xiong Qi looked at Xiao Ke and clenched his fist to attack the key in Niao Niao's hand.

He dodged Xiong Qi's fist, grabbed Xiao Ke's hand, turned it around, put his arm around Xiao Ke's neck and said, "Why, you want to rob?"

"Let her go!" Xiong Qi's eyes were fierce and the scar on his face trembled with anger.

"Oh, so what if I don't let go." Niao Niao obviously didn't take the two of them seriously and answered absent-mindedly.

Xiao Ke in his arms suddenly raised his leg, and the dagger on his leg fell into Xiong Qi's hand. Xiong Qi stabbed Niao Niao with the dagger.

Ruan Lanzhu used his sword to block the dagger and kicked Xiong Qi to the ground.

The huge noise attracted the door god, and the man with long hair came quickly, took the key from Niao Niao's hand and ran away.

She moved quickly and soon disappeared. She made the cave full of dust.

"Xiaojiu, you weren't so smart before." Niao Niao cursed inwardly and pushed Xiao Ke away from her arms.

Xiao Ke, who was released, ran to Xiong Qi and asked worriedly, "Are you okay?"

"It's okay, it's the key..." Xiong Qi felt a little ashamed at this moment, lowering his head and not daring to look at everyone.

"You still have the leisure and elegance to feel guilty?" Niao Niao stretched out her hand to sweep away the dust around her and said coldly, "Chase."

Ruan Lanzhu had already taken the lead and chased after him, with a group of people following behind him, running wildly along the passage.

"What should we do now?" The wall in front collapsed, and the door god was not inside. Ling Jiushi looked at Niao Niao and asked.

"Don't look at me. I've never encountered anything this bad before."

In the past, most of the time, the door gods had to give the keys themselves. It was not like now, where the keys can be snatched back after being taken.

"Let's go in and take a look." Ruan Lanzhu took out a lighter and lit the lantern in Xiong Qi's hand.

It seemed to be a temporary shelter from wolves, with a charcoal-drawn picture of a family of three on the wall.

"This quilt looks familiar."

"That's what the boss lady held when we went up the mountain to chop trees." Niao Niao said as if guiding, "I just don't know what the relationship is between her and the door god."

Ling Jiushi raised his head suddenly and said in disbelief: "The boss lady said that she had a daughter who died in a wolf disaster. Could it be..."

"The door god is the proprietress's daughter?" Xiong Qi's face was full of anger. He crawled out and went towards the inn.

Ling Jiushi stopped him and signaled him to calm down.

"What does it matter if we know? There are only five of us left now. If anyone has any clues, please tell us now. I hope no one else will die."

"What are you thinking! Anyone who has any clues will share them."

"After a while, think about what they did when they died."
