The night sky was pitch black, without a single star. Only a ray of moonlight penetrated through the clouds, illuminating the few paths ahead on the ground.

"This guy is so meticulous, and I can't compare to him no matter what I do. Look... how come the things in Tianji City are almost the same as the surveillance cameras we have there?"

The room that was originally lit with candles suddenly melted into darkness. With a creak, a figure crouched out from the half-open door, looked around, then stood up, patted the dust on his clothes, and walked out of the yard.

[Host, it has been detected that there are no human creatures within a ten-mile radius, so there is no need for you to act like a thief. It's really embarrassing.]

"Shame on you? Pah~ I'm just being cautious. Besides, who told you that all the creatures here are human? They might be some combination we don't know about. If you're not careful, they'll appear behind you... Ahhhh~ I'm just coming out..."

Before the voice fell, there was no sound in front of the man who had put his hands together. He raised his head and saw that there was a branch above his head, hanging on him. He breathed a sigh of relief, but a mocking voice sounded in his mind.

[Host, you are the disciple of a great master in the world of cultivation. Look at your cowardice. I admire you.]

"So what? Even the most powerful in the world of cultivation is not omnipotent. What's more, I am just his little disciple... No, no, I am just his liaison to another person."

After saying that, he rolled his eyes with disdain, quietly opened the door, and walked out of the yard...

The pitch-black night covered the sky above this ancient city like an inky cloth, and the hazy mist gently enveloped the large courtyard like a veil. In the courtyard, a few dim lights swayed in the wind, making a rhythmic "squeaking" sound.

In this dark and quiet environment, he held the star map tightly in his hand, his eyes focused and determined. Following the silver light cast by the moonlight, he slowly moved his sight, looking for the star that kept jumping on the star map. His breathing was steady and deep, but his eyes were flickering with doubt.

Finally, in a corner in the east, he found the dilapidated courtyard. The roof tiles were broken, the corners were covered with vines, and the door was half open, as if telling of the vicissitudes of life. He walked towards the courtyard, every step was in the rhythm of his heartbeat.

In the small courtyard, the stone bench next to the ancient well was covered with moss. A tattered wooden barrel lay quietly beside it. Next to it were a few clumps of wild flowers that no one cared about. They swayed gently in the breeze, emitting a faint fragrance.

He retracted his foot and looked outside at the dry branches and the snow-covered ground. His eyes turned from outside back to the courtyard, but the scenery in front of him remained unchanged.

“This is unscientific”

[So do you think you, a young man with aspirations in the 21st century, are here in science? And didn’t you also say that the people here are not necessarily human beings, so the affairs here cannot be thought of with common sense?]

"Then why don't you give me a spoiler? What's going on?"

Wen Baixu touched the door frame that was about to fall and said casually

[Beep~ Sorry, we detected that the host has not reached that altitude, and permission is not granted.]

"Shit... What do you mean, what level am I at now? Low level, mid level, or 0?"

Wen Baixu gently squeezed his palm, and the wooden door frame made a creaking sound.

[Host, this system has detected that the temperature in the yard has reached a spiritual point, which is what you call: the yin energy is overwhelming, so I wish you good luck, Mianmian is with you, good night]

After that, the voice disappeared in my mind, as if it had never appeared.

Wen Baixu curled his lips and said, "All you do is run away and change the subject. I really don't know how I could be bound to such a system. It's really..."

Before I could sigh, I saw the small flowers that were originally swaying in the summer night suddenly withered and died, and the trees in the yard also turned yellow.

"Shit... Is this a yard that changes with the seasons?"

As he spoke, he walked towards the courtyard. As soon as he stepped in, he felt that the temperature inside was obviously higher than outside. There was a thick layer of leaves on the bottom of his feet.

"Is this autumn? Then will it be winter in the next second, hahahaha"

At this point, I saw a snowflake floating past my eyes and landing on my eyelashes.

"Wow~A-choo"

A loud sneeze echoed throughout the yard, and after sneezing, the figure looked around furtively.

Seeing no one responded, he calmed down, looked around, and walked towards the house in the middle of the yard.

Wen Baixu looked around and stretched out his hand to push it away. It was pitch black in front of him, and there was a strong smell of blood.

"Tsk tsk, are you planning to use this place as a corpse storage place? It stinks so much, I..."

The sound continued to move inside with the footsteps, and soon, Wen Baixu's path was blocked by an object, which kept bumping against his head.

"This is....."

Just as Wen Baixu was about to raise his head, a reminder sounded in his mind.

[Warning! Warning! The host has successfully entered the room of the upside-down corpse bride. Now directly above you is a bride F who has been sealed for 3 months. Do you want to turn on the light mode?]

The moment the voice sounded, the expression on Wen Baixu's face froze instantly, and for a moment, a stream of thoughts kept running through his head.

"Open~ Do you think I was scared..."

The sound stopped abruptly when the faint green will-o'-the-wisp fire floated. Wen Baixu originally wanted to complain about the will-o'-the-wisp fire, but after looking up at the spectacular ones above his head, his mouth opened so wide that an egg could fit in it.

"Fuck! This is a pervert who likes to collect corpses."

Before Wen Baixu finished speaking, he heard a familiar electric current in his mind that penetrated his entire body until a puff of white smoke came out of his mouth.

"Huh~ What's wrong? You called me again. What did I say wrong?"

[The host answered incorrectly. These are not just collections. She killed them with her own hands and pickled them into this state. They still have great use.]

"Pickled? Why is she preparing for winter? This can't be eaten. Look at these finished products."

As he spoke, he reached out to touch it, but before he could touch it, he was stopped by the electronic voice in his mind.

[Have you heard of corpse poison? I am really a newborn calf that is not afraid of a tiger. I don’t want to have a host with corpse poison. This system does not want to waste energy to solve this problem....]

After saying that, he rolled his eyes arrogantly.

Wen Baixu ignored his rolling eyes, but obediently put his hand down. His eyes and body were tense as he stared at the corpses dangling from the beams... They should be pickled meat.

The smell of blood and the unique smell of pickled meat in the air make people want to escape from this place as soon as possible.

Wen Baixu covered his nose and just turned around, he suddenly heard a "ding-ling-ling" sound of a bell in his ear. The sound was very familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before.

Just as he was about to turn around, he heard a faint sound coming from outside the yard. He thought to himself that something was wrong and hurriedly walked out, but the sound had already reached the outside of the dilapidated door. It seemed that he had seized the opportunity and fled into the dry well before the door was opened...
