Qin Wei quickly read the booklet and took a breath.

"This is a sequel to the record we saw inside the coffin."

This time she didn't wait for anyone to ask questions and just started narrating.

"I saw my father being killed by that strange man. If he saw me, he might kill me."

"I was so scared that I couldn't go home, so I hid in the village."

"But the man didn't let me go. He killed my whole family and tied me up at the foot of the mountain temple."

"I saw another mountain goddess here. She was holding a sharp blade, just like the one in the man's hand."

"I am in pain, I want to live, but I can't stand it."

"I pray to the mountain goddess to save me. I am willing to sacrifice my life."

"I saw it. It was the mountain goddess who would grant people's wishes."

Qin Wei glanced at everyone and shook the booklet in his hand.

"At the end, there are a few drops of blood. She must have seen the mountain god who helped her realize her wish, the one holding the jade ruyi."

"So, that strange man violated her?"

Pei Yan's voice rang above Gu Chaoxi's head, and she felt her ears buzzing.

Raising her hand and touching her hot cheek, she sighed inwardly.

I'm not going to hold everyone back.

She didn't know if this man could hear her thoughts, but he used a little strength in his hands and pulled her up so that she was standing steadily.

Qin Wei nodded: "That's probably it."

Everyone looked at the woman lying on the ground in the yard, and for a moment they felt like something was stuck in their throats.

“Maybe we need to review it as a whole.”

Qin Wei turned and looked at Pei Yan, as if she was already used to Pei Yan doing such things.

Gu Chaoxi lowered her eyes, tilted her head and leaned it against Pei Yan's shoulder. Her head was too dizzy now, and she felt like she would fall asleep in the next second.

Pei Yan glanced at her and his eyes fell on the middle of the yard again.

"Perhaps we can assume that this man came here a long time ago, and his initial target was the village chief's daughter."

"When he learned that the village chief's daughter was going to get married, he knew his chances were running out, so he chose to kill her."

"But the village chief's daughter saw his atrocities, so he decided to kill everyone and snatch the village chief's daughter away."

"When she was suffering, she prayed to the mountain god, and the mountain god responded to her. From then on, the man began to be disturbed by some strange force."

"He made that coffin for himself to prevent these things from persecuting him."

After Pei Yan finished speaking, everyone remained silent.

Shen Yao stared at the person on the ground, still somewhat confused.

"If this is the only story, who made her like this, and why did her records appear in the coffin?"

No one answered.

Gu Chaoxi tilted his head to look at the mountain goddess in the main hall, she still had the same kind look on her face.

She smiled with the corners of her mouth pulled together. The sound was not loud, but it was just loud enough for everyone present to hear.

"I'm afraid this requires asking about the third person in this story."

"What do you mean?" The college student took two steps back, not understanding what Gu Chaoxi was talking about.

Even Pei Yan was a little surprised this time.

Qin Wei swallowed and rubbed the back of his hands: "Little cutie, it's so creepy!"

Gu Chaoxi raised his eyes with difficulty. Although he felt very heavy now, he still had some strength to speak.

“Maybe you haven’t felt that someone has been watching us since we came here.”

"Isn't it an illusion?" Pei Yan asked her with his head down.

She shook her head. How could it be her illusion?

Maybe at first she would think that she had just entered the other world and was not used to everything here, so she was nervous and caused sensory errors.

But when that gaze appeared again and again, she was sure that it was definitely not an illusion.

Just like now, that gaze was still staring at them.

"Pei Yan, have you forgotten that she is getting married soon!"

She slowly raised her hand and pointed at the man on the ground.

It was as if something had torn the paper, and a sharp wind blew through the air.

If Pei Yan hadn't reacted quickly enough, I'm afraid both of them would have died here today.

Everyone only saw Pei Yan and Gu Chaoxi leap to the side, and both of them fell to the ground, and behind the place where they were originally standing, a sharp blade was inserted into the wall.

"how come?"

Qin Wei recognized it. It was the sharp blade held by the statue of the evil mountain god in the secret room.

Helping Gu Chaoxi stand up, Pei Yan's eyes were fixed on the statue of the mountain god in the main hall.

Seeing this, several people quietly moved over to this side.

As the atmosphere grew tense, a voice finally emanated from the main hall.

There was the sound of footsteps dragging on the ground. After a while, a person walked out from the shadows and stepped into the yard.

Perhaps he cannot be called a human being, because his eyes, like those of the villagers, are drawn with black lines.

The only difference was that his entire eye sockets were filled with black and there were no pupils.

He wasn't breathing and his heart wasn't beating.

Gu Chaoxi laughed. No wonder Pei Yan and the others never noticed such gazes, because when this thing stared at them, there was no specific line of sight at all.

"Are you the husband she is going to marry?"

Pei Yan was cold.

"Yes, it's me. If that man hadn't died, I would have started a family with her long ago!"

He looked particularly angry, and his eyes became darker.

He raised his hand and reached towards the sharp blade. The blade actually trembled and struggled out of the wall, and after an arc, it fell back into the hand of this thing.

Gu Chaoxi held Pei Yan's arm, and he had no strength left to move.

"Pei Yan, leave the mountain temple, get out!"

She bit her lip, trying to keep herself awake.

Fortunately, Pei Yan was smart. He immediately hugged her and ran out: "Get out, don't stay here!"

"Go!"

Qin Wei shouted, and the others reacted and ran out desperately.

However, someone was still a step too slow. At the last step, the college student was stabbed by the sharp blade and slowly fell inside.

The display lights up again.

【Dear players】

[Number of players in this game]

[Remaining: 5]

That thing seemed very sad, and it carefully held the woman on the ground in its arms. Although she couldn't cry, the air was filled with her sobs.

"My head hurts!" Shen Yao squatted on the ground holding his head.

Gu Zhaoxi stared blankly, and suddenly murmured, "She's not breathing."

These words seemed to have startled the strange creature, and it suddenly let out a long roar toward the sky, with the piercing sound almost tearing the sky apart.

As they watched, his entire figure was torn apart in the middle, and a huge mass of flesh spilled out.

Accompanied by a strange light, it turned into an evil mountain god sitting on a lotus plate, but the face was still the same with a pair of dark eyes.

"This is... too ugly!"
