Hailing barren city

Tao Rujiu held Qin Hua with one hand while walking carefully in the dark underground cave.If it weren't for the continuous ropes along the road, he would hardly believe that there is such a natural cave on the third floor of the underground palace.

The call from the person on duty in the control room let him know that Dongli Bupo had escaped from the shackles of the magic circle outside the villa, and was probably heading towards the underground palace now.Tao Rujiu didn't know that Qi Linpo and Ling Li were no match for Donglibubu.But if Qilin Po and the others were attacked without their knowledge, the result would be unimaginable.

Not to mention, the Sea God Temple is originally a place where the east fence cannot be broken!

Tao Rujiu didn't dare to imagine further, he rushed into the room immediately, pushed Qin Hua awake, and dragged him towards the underground palace.In his opinion, only the blooming of flowers can stop Dongli Bupo from doing reckless things.

Just with such a simple idea and the impulse to rescue, Tao Rujiu ran down the third floor of the underground palace in one breath.Then he found the Sea God Temple by following the signpost rope left by Ling Li.

But the end of the rope was tied to the railing by the river, and the person he was looking for was nowhere to be seen.

At this time, Huakai also understood where she was, and suddenly wanted to say something to Tao Rujiu, but she had no mobile phone, no paper and pen by her side, so she could only keep gesticulating.Tao Rujiu couldn't understand sign language, so he thought he was afraid of the dark, so he comforted him in a low voice for a while, and said that he was just asking for some mediation, and that it wouldn't do any harm to Dongli Bupo.But Qin Hua trembled more and more violently, his eyes kept looking around.

"What are you looking at?"

Tao Rujiu was inquiring, when suddenly he felt a gust of wind in the dark and cold cave.He shuddered and turned around unconsciously. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a gleaming white thing retreating from behind into the darkness.

"what!"

He was sure it wasn't an illusion.Because Qin Hua hugged his arm tightly at the same time.

That white thing is definitely not human, only the thickness of a thin piece of paper, fluttering.

Tao Rujiu kept Qin Hua behind him, and concentrated his mind to look at the place where the white shadow disappeared. Behind the triple archway was the dark entrance of the Sea God Temple.

All was quiet, and there was nothing alive.

At this moment, Qin Hua grabbed his arm again.Tao Rujiu reflexively turned around and hugged him, stepped back a few steps and looked back.

At some point, a patch of water had accumulated on the ground behind them.

Tao Rujiu turned pale with fright, and took a few steps back towards the cave wall, but bumped into something unexpectedly.

This thing is not hard, just like a piece of paper or a cloth curtain, it floats away slowly as soon as it hits, and gently brushes against Tao Rujiu's face.

But it hurts!

Tao Rujiu felt his face was gently pulled by a side edge of a piece of paper, and there was an instant pain.He suddenly pulled Qin Hua into his arms, and ran a few steps across the open space in front of the temple.

But where is the safe place?

Fortunately, the white shadow never appeared again, and Tao Rujiu quickly regained his composure. After comforting Huakai, who was also terrified, he decided to try his luck first, to see if Qilin Soul and Ling Li were nearby.

"Qilin Soul...Qilin Soul...sharp..."

Facts proved that he was lucky. Not long after calling out the names of the two people, there was a rush of footsteps in the dead silence.

In less than half a minute, a beam of light shot out from the dark temple gate, and then a tall figure ran out—it was Ling Li.

"Tao Rujiu!" Ling Li shouted: "Why did you come here? Don't you know the danger!"

"I..." The young man just wanted to explain Dongli Bupo's matter, but he grabbed his jaw sharply and stared at his face intently.

"What's going on... on your face?"

Tao Rujiu was startled for a while, then he felt his face was hot and humid, and when he touched it with his hand, there was a two-inch wound on his cheek, thin and long.

"It doesn't look like it was hit by a stone." Sharp fingers gently stroked the edge of the wound, "Have you encountered any weird things?"

Tao Rujiu immediately recalled that white shadow, and was about to speak when Qi Lin Po asked coldly, "What is that hanging behind you!"

Tao Rujiu was startled.And Ling Li immediately put his hand behind his back, touched it a few times, and unexpectedly grabbed seven or eight slightly yellow pieces of paper, large and small.

Each of these pieces of paper was about the size of a 16-mo notebook, and they were all cut into a round shape at one end and a long end at the other without exception.Tao Rujiu felt very similar to Bai Ying'er just now.

Qilin Po walked over and picked up one of them, glanced at it, and said for sure: "It's a paper figurine."

Responding sharply: "It's really a bit similar."

Tao Rujiu looked at the piece of paper again, and there were three small holes on the round end to make eyes, giving a vaguely simple and sinister feeling.

The horrors in this world are often hidden in those seemingly simple and innocent things.Like a newborn baby, like a beautiful doll, like this simple white paper man.

"Is this something that can't be broken?" Tao Rujiu hurriedly asked, "He ran out of the villa this morning!"

"what?"

Both Qiling and Ling were taken aback.But Qilin Po calmed down first.

"It's not Dongli." He analyzed: "It's daytime now, and the movement of ghosts is restricted. If Dongli is not broken, he won't come so soon. There must be something strange in this Sea God Temple."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Hua broke free from Tao Rujiu's embrace again, and desperately signed to Ling Li.

(Here I dreamed!)
