About when I thought I had found the truth!

"You... are you the old man who often calls me?" Meng Hongyi's voice trembled slightly as he spoke. He tried to control his uncontrollably trembling legs to be able to move backwards, but he just couldn't move.

"What... what old man?"

There was an unusual confusion on the aged cheeks of the white-clothed man, and his face seemed to become more and more loose between breaths, and it was even about to droop and pile up.

This scene is really scary.

Meng Hongyi didn't know whether his judgment just now was correct, but the fear in his heart made him dare not take a step forward.

Suddenly, the man in white in front of Meng Hongyi strangled his neck tightly, his expression was very painful, his blood red eyes looked at Meng Hongyi with a bit of pleading and desire for life.

He... seems to be sick?

This was the only thing Meng Hongyi could react to at the moment.

After several inner struggles, Meng Hongyi moved forward a few more steps tremblingly. After taking a deep breath, he asked in a low voice, "You...what's the matter with you?"

Suddenly, the man in white fell down before he could speak, and fell heavily on the ground.

But the scarlet eyes were still firmly open, and there was a feeling of death, but the difference was that his breathing was still very steady, and there was no sign of getting weaker at all.

Meng Hongyi bent down and looked at the man in white who was lying on the ground. For a moment, he suddenly felt that maybe the man in white was not lying, he was just a living dead.

Although it looks normal, it is eating away mentally and physically.

"Come on, keep going, you can get out."

The man in white didn't give any explanation for the situation in front of him. He just urged Meng Hongyi to move forward with a hoarse voice.

But...how could Meng Hongyi leave him to suffer alone in this boundless darkness.

He pressed his immature white hands on the chest of the man in white, and tried his best to channel his insufficient spiritual power, hoping that the man's condition would improve.

"Leave me alone, let's go." The man in white grabbed Meng Hongyi's wrist and shook it away. He lay on the ground, his expression didn't look desperate, but calm.

Meng Hongyi shook his head firmly, "I won't leave, I can't leave you alone, tell me, what's going on?"

The man in white who didn't want to say any more was defeated by Meng Hongyi's persistence. He absorbed most of the spiritual power in Meng Hongyi's body, and his physical condition finally improved.

Afterwards, with Meng Hongyi's support, he half sat up, and then slowly narrated what happened to him.

The man in white was named Chou An, who entered the fairyland by relying on his broken skills/arts when he was young, but was mistakenly labeled as a monster by the ignorant and superstitious people. He was tortured at a young age, and his face was completely disfigured.

And he is very talented in cultivation, and he has achieved success in cultivation in just a few days.

He wanted to rely on his strong spiritual power to get rid of the shackles of the villagers, but he accidentally went into a madness. The residual cultivation made the spiritual power in Chou'an's body extremely unstable, and even had a rejection reaction.

What's even more frightening is...his body is also rapidly aging.

"I need a steady stream of spiritual power to fill up the bottomless pit-like spiritual vortex. Once the spiritual power in my body is exhausted, my vitality and spiritual power will be absorbed."

There was still no expression on his wrinkled face when he told about the tragic experience in the past, he was so calm as if the past experience did not bring him the slightest harm.

After listening to his narration, Meng Hongyi was a little puzzled, "But... the spiritual power in the dead zone is very abundant. It stands to reason that you won't be short of spiritual power if you stay here."

"But...it was just an accident," Chou An glanced at Meng Hongyi, "So don't worry, nothing will happen to me if I stay in a place with such abundant spiritual energy. Go ahead, the exit is right at ahead."

Meng Hongyi didn't quite understand.

He clearly felt that there was something hidden behind this, and... Chou An was clearly hesitant to speak just now, "Is it because you saved me that you became what you are now?"

"Of course not, it has nothing to do with you." Chou An categorically denied this matter.

But Meng Hongyi vaguely felt that something was wrong, but Chou An refused to say it, and naturally he couldn't find out more.

Suddenly, Meng Hongyi noticed that the spiritual power that had just been injected into Chou An's body had a magical cross-link with the spiritual power in his own body, and he could clearly feel Chou An's body condition at the moment.

What's even more strange is that Chou Eucalyptus looks weak, but in fact he is in very good health, even stronger and tougher than ordinary monks.

That is to say... the ugly eucalyptus at this moment is simply acting, and the story that may even be told is deceiving!

Meng Hongyi, who knew everything by heart, did not show the surprise in his heart. He deliberately pretended to be hesitant, and finally hesitantly said, "Then I'm leaving, you... Take care."

Meng Hongyi was too lazy to care about Chou An's expression, he walked forward quickly without looking at him, and only wanted to leave as soon as possible to avoid another accident.

And Chou's expression at the moment is indeed as he imagined, very ugly.

He never thought that Meng Hongyi would abandon him directly, so... Chou An fell ill again, he howled loudly as if in pain, and scratched his neck with his blunt nails.

Even if he made a loud noise, Meng Hongyi didn't turn his head to look at him, but kept thinking in his heart: It's all fake!It's all fake!Nothing!

Even, Meng Hongyi would speed up his speed, for fear that Chou An would become angry and catch up again.

The reason why Meng Hongyi was sure that Chou An was faking it was entirely because his spiritual power lingering in Chou An's body was still swimming unimpeded, and helped Meng Hongyi feel Chou An's physical condition in real time.

The ugly eucalyptus, who was left far behind, was tired of acting.

He touched his neck, which was still red from being scratched, and immediately clenched his fists and stared at the front where Meng Hongyi was no longer visible. He was so angry that he wanted to rush up and grab Meng Hongyi, but he held back.

Chou An sat on the spot, waiting quietly... Meng Hongyi walked back by himself.

The road in front of him has no exit at all, or it seems that there is no exit from the dead zone. The living dead walked in with their last sliver of obsession, and few of them could leave safely and alive.

Meng Hongyi, who had been moving forward, finally discovered the problem. The boundless road ahead was still full of darkness, without even a ray of hope.

And the endless march made him physically and mentally exhausted, and the pace of moving forward became a bit heavy.

Feeling a little tired, Meng Hongyi stopped in his tracks.

He wasn't sure whether he should choose to continue to believe in the direction that Chou An said, but he didn't have a second better and more suitable choice now.

If he went back the same way, Meng Hongyi believed that he would fall into a more dangerous situation.

Without a clue, he stood there in a daze for a while and became at a loss. When he first came to Jianling Mountain, he never thought that he would be in such a dilemma.

And it was at this moment that he suddenly realized that he was relying too much on Qingxuan's existence.

In the past, Qingxuan always stood by his side all the time, and no matter what happened, Qingxuan was there to help solve it, but now... Meng Hongyi, who had lost these protections, once again felt his own weakness.

"Why don't you move on?" Chou An limped towards Meng Hongyi with concern written all over his face.

The moment Meng Hongyi turned around and saw him, he was so startled that he took several deep breaths, took a light step and began to back away.

He couldn't figure out what kind of mentality and purpose Chouyan had to coax him, but the only thing he wanted to understand was that Chouyan definitely didn't do all this with good intentions!

"The exit is too far, I'm tired from walking."

Meng Hongyi responded in a low voice, the back movement never stopped, and the ugly car in front of him was still approaching with big strides, the seemingly friendly expression seemed to hide murderous intentions.

"I think... maybe my memory is wrong, the exit doesn't seem to be in this direction." Chou An said, and accelerated his approaching speed.

And Meng Hongyi also noticed that Chou An's face had been completely restored to the appearance when they first met. Everything seemed to be in place, but in fact it was very different.

After thinking about it again and again, Meng Hongyi said stiffly: "I won't listen to you anymore. I have seen through that you are deceiving me a long time ago. From the very beginning, you deliberately pretended to be sick and even made up a story to deceive me!"

Chou An was very surprised that Meng Hongyi would say such a thing. After thinking about it carefully, he felt that it was reasonable. His tone of violence and violence became extremely threatening, "If you don't listen In my words, don't even think about leaving the dead zone in this life, and slowly...you will also become a living dead, suffering mental and physical suffering!"

"But you don't know how to get out, you're all lying, I won't be fooled a second time!" Meng Hongyi didn't know how he had the courage to confront the ugly, maybe it was forced by the situation, Or maybe... it's because he's convinced that listening to Chou's words is killing himself.

"Of course I know where the exit of this dead zone is, otherwise how could I own a tree house, and there are some simple items such as tables, chairs and benches in the tree house." Chou An stared at Meng Hongyi. Intend to be rough/hands on.

Meng Hongyi's brain became brighter in an instant, and he immediately realized that his words were not convincing at all.

"Those wooden items...you can make them with your own hands, and you don't need to leave here at all! Besides, if you could leave this dead zone, you would have left long ago. Why have you lived here for all these years?"

"Heh..." Chou An snorted coldly, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, "The reason why I stay here is just waiting for you to come to me."

As soon as these words came out, Meng Hongyi was completely stunned.

His first instinct told him that Chou An must be trying to coax him into running the train again, but then... when Chou An unabashedly tore off his own face, the situation reversed.
