Xiao Nianzhi suddenly woke up from the darkness, took a breath as if saving her life, and inhaled the fragrance that could not go away in the coma into her lungs.

The dark and flickering candlelight hit the wall of the mural ghostly, pulling out a slanted black shadow.

It was a poisonous snake spitting out a red core, traced down to the source, and pushed open the gate of ghosts to the front.

Xiao Nianzhi looked up, but he didn't see the blue sky as he wished, and there was no orderly vertical and horizontal pillars; the roof was paved with pieces of gray-yellow bricks, which was very short.Xiao Nianzhi propped up her body, smiled and thought, the ceiling of the tomb is not higher than that.

Judging from the current situation, he should be in the tomb passage of a tomb, and turning back and forth around the corner is an unpredictable unknown. Although there are candles to guide, the invisible place must be covered with thorns.

Xiao Nianzhi stretched out her right palm, took a candle from the air and floated it in her hand, took a breath, and made the flame a little bigger for better lighting.

The mural on the wall was illuminated by candlelight a little bit. The mural said whether it was long or not. If you look at it from left to right, it is a woman surrounded by a group of people, sent to a sedan chair, and then placed in an open space. Later , Xiao Nianzhi didn't quite understand.

There are many lanterns in the sky on the mural, and the crowd cheers underneath. The next mural is a sedan chair placed in the open space. When the curtain is lifted, the original woman becomes a pair of bones.

I don't know what happened in the middle, the woman's bones were broken into pieces, as if she had been chopped dozens of times with a knife.

Xiao Nianzhi's candle light reached to the end, even a little bit of painting could not be seen.

He turned a corner, and there was another dark passage, like a monster with a huge mouth, waiting for people to go in and swallow it.

He wondered if there was nothing inside, or it was a high cliff, and once he stepped in, he couldn't get out.

Just as he was thinking about it, suddenly the walls of the passages on both sides lit up with dark blue flames. When it lit up to the end, it illuminated the path under his feet, but he still couldn't see what was on the other side.

Xiao Nianzhi was arranged here by fate, she couldn't get out, she had to go down, there was no room for backing down, life or death, she was a stone slab on the cliff, every step counted.

He extinguished the extra candle in his hand, and walked a few steps lightly.

The further he went in, the darkness inside became heavier and heavier, and he felt that his eyes were covered with cloth, full of panic of blindness.

Hesitating for the last step, Xiao Nianzhi raised his foot, and suddenly a sword protruded from the darkness, approaching his eyes.A person jumped out from the thick black, with sharp swordsmanship and clean movements, and his slashing moves were also knotted, pressing every step of the way.

Xiao Nianzhi took a few steps back, with the last move of spiritual power blocking her, she took a breath and saw the person coming.

He looks like a human being, although his face is a bit darker, his hair is a bit disheveled, and his clothes are a bit torn, but overall he is a human skeleton, and his palm with protruding finger bones is not far from him, holding a hand that can be used at any time. The sword of life.

Xiao Nianzhi didn't make a sound, the man preemptively said, "Who are you?"

The voice was hoarse and unpleasant, like a xun with a hole in it, making people quite uncomfortable.

Out of etiquette, just in case this person is a good person, Xiao Nianzhi said her name: "My name is Xiao Ning."

That person didn't think Xiao Nianzhi looked like a bad person, because in comparison, the clothes of the two of them could tell the truth.

He put away the sword, and asked out of words: "Are you human?!"

Xiao Nianzhi looked at herself and asked, "I don't look like that?"

The man finally let go of his grievances, cleared his throat, and said, "I'm in Xiaqin'an, people from Liuhu under the moon."

Xiao Nianzhi felt excited, people from Liuhu Lake, that is a county in Yuexia Prefecture, if counted, the two of them are from the same hometown.

"Coincidentally, I am also from Yuexia State, but in a different place."

Qin An snatched a light that looked like a will-o'-the-wisp from the wall, lit it on the hilt of his sword, and took a breath. The light turned back to its normal color, shining in the deep passageway, it finally looked a little warm.

"How did you get here?" Qin An asked as he patted his hair.

Xiao Nianzhi couldn't put it into words, so he said simply: "On the way, I came across a strange city, stayed in a strange inn, and some strange things happened, and that's it."

Qin An was not surprised at all, and said, "But Mingdeng City?"

Xiao Nianzhi thought there was something interesting: "You know?"

Qin An put his sword back and said, "Come with me."

Here, if you meet someone, you shouldn't trust them casually, but it's not as easy for him to come alone as two people. Xiao Nianzhi looked at Qin An's back and stepped after him.

"Outside Bright Lantern City, the inscription only has the word Lantern City. It is bright outside, but it is as dark as night inside. There are countless bright lights on the streets, which almost illuminate everything." Qin An led him around several turns, and continue walking.

"Is the inn you live in named Wumingshi?" Although Qin An asked, he was sure that it was this inn, so he continued: "This inn is short and square, with black and red accents. It is a cemetery. If you enter it, you will be dead. , I guess you came here from that inn too."

Xiao Nianzhi said: "Well, maybe you are too."

Qin An breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Yes, and I have been here for three years, no, to be precise, I was imprisoned for three years."

Qin An's effort was not lost. He spent a lot of time to find out the structure of the cemetery, and also found the underground river. He survived by replenishing water and increasing his internal strength.

"There is a tomb here. Next to the tomb is a mirror. There should be a mechanism. I have encountered it before, but I try to be careful not to touch it."

"Whose tomb belongs to, brother Qin, do you know?"

Qin An shook his head and said, "The inside of the coffin in the tomb is empty and clean, without even a single hair."

Xiao Nianzhi looked at him in astonishment, she didn't expect this brother from the rivers and lakes to use such vulgar words.

"In the past three years, except for the first year, I tried to find an exit to leave here, but they all failed, and I didn't try after that."

"Can you bear it?" Xiao Nianzhi looked at his hair and clothes that hadn't been cleaned for several years. He didn't eat or drink, he couldn't see the sun, and he was worried and afraid all day long. If it was an ordinary person, he would not be able to endure it long ago.

Qin An smiled wryly: "I can't bear it any longer, no, I met you when I was just about to fight again."

"So you want me to help you."

"No, help yourself."

Only by helping each other can they get out of this place.

During the conversation, Qin An led him into the main tomb, and sure enough, he saw a coffin and a mirror.

But Xiao Nianzhi keenly discovered that there are not only these two things in the tomb, but also various mechanisms hidden in the walls.

Qin An extinguished the fire on the hilt of the sword, and said to Xiao Nianzhi: "The mirror is the gate of life and death. I saw in the mirror that there are probably two ways of life." He said: "There are two of us, only one can survive and go out. , but one of us must die for the other."

But when the two met by chance, how could it be that who died for whom.Xiao Nianzhi said: "Another way?"

Qin An: "Did you see the murals on the tomb outside? A woman was sent to a sedan chair, and then turned into bones, dying inexplicably."

Xiao Nianzhi became more and more puzzled: "I just don't understand."

"People die for no reason, and of course we don't understand the reason, so this is a wronged soul."

Xiao Nianzhi lost her voice in surprise.

"There is a coffin in the tomb but no owner of the tomb, because the tomb was not built for a single person. It exists to provide a shelter for those who died unjustly. All the people gathered here are unjust souls."

Hearing such big news, Xiao Nianzhi couldn't bear it, and felt a little blunt and frightened.

"Ghosts need to be reincarnated, and someone needs to die for them."

Qin An later said that the tomb chamber was weird and changeable because they had a symbiotic relationship. The tomb chamber was their home, but it also needed their resentment to keep the tomb chamber from decaying.

"Don't ask me how I know, when I saw the mirror for the first time, it was written on it; also, ghosts don't show up often, but every fixed time, they will appear in the mirror, I I saw it, but I didn't go in."

If you enter, you will die. Who will enter.

Xiao Nianzhi asked softly, "When will the mirror appear again?"

Qin An counted the days to live, and every day was extremely difficult. Based on previous experience, if there were no accidents, it should be today.

After a long silence, Xiao Nianzhi returned to the tomb, staring at the empty mirror for a long time.

The door of life and death in the mirror, the two worlds inside the mirror and outside the mirror, staying here is only death, if you enter, there is a half chance of living.

Of course Xiao Nianzhi wanted to live, and finally escaped from the clutches of those mediocre people in Wulin, so she didn't want to die without knowing why.

Sitting on the steps, Xiao Nianzhi was thinking wildly, and suddenly thought of Daqianshu, the book he had read, which knew everyone's future fate.

But it's been a long time, how much I watched at the beginning, and now I almost forget it.

He remembered the three places most clearly in the book, and the rest seemed to be blurred by water. He tried hard to think about it, but he still couldn't see clearly.

He wondered for a moment, whether from now on, the fate of himself and everyone else would no longer be according to the book. Whether he died or lived, became famous all over the world, or died a tragic death in the gutter, all depended on himself.

Xiao Nianzhi was lost in thought, saw Fu Yan in the mirror, smiled at him, and smashed the mirror with his sword.

With her head tilted, Xiao Nianzhi woke up suddenly, and supported her tilted body.

He actually fell asleep.

After an unknown amount of time, a vision appeared in the mirror.

Xiao Nianzhi got up and walked towards the mirror, when he was about to carefully see what would appear in the mirror at the end, he was attacked by spiritual power behind him.

Qin An slapped him inexplicably, and then many thick vines appeared around him, climbing up his body, entangled his hands and feet, and hung him in a large shape in the air.

Xiao Nianzhi struggled for a while, but it was useless, so she raised her head and glared at Qin An, shouting: "What are you doing!"

Qin An felt guilty for a moment, but it disappeared soon.

"I'm sorry, Xiao Ning, only if one of us dies, the other's hope of life will be greater." Qin An swallowed, and said, "I'm sorry."

A gust of cold wind penetrated under his feet and climbed straight up his body.

A raging fire suddenly appeared in the mirror, burning from the inside to the outside, mercilessly devouring Xiao Nianzhi.

From now on, Xiao Nianzhi never shouted to death easily, this feeling of being burned alive was really the most painful thing in the world.

He felt his hands and feet melting, then his body, and finally his face... the sky mirror on his right eye.

A thick puff of smoke entered his throat, choking him.

Xiao Nianzhi coughed violently, coughing and coughing, a stream of clear water poured into his throat, he scratched up with both hands, somehow he stood up from the water.

Xiao Nianzhi was stunned for two or three seconds, and saw clearly the small town with white clouds above its head and black soil under its feet.Some naughty children are running on the street, and the corners of farmers carrying burdens are raised, saying hello to passing acquaintances; in front of them is a small restaurant with only one floor.Business is booming.

The deaf ears started working again, Xiao Nianzhi gradually heard people's voices clearly, that kind of ordinary Mandarin, sometimes with a smile.

He was a little crazy, as if he was born again.

Xiao Nianzhi suddenly came back to his senses and looked towards the place where the sound was coming from. Unexpectedly, those people seemed to be laughing at himself, laughing why he was standing in the water alone, if he wanted to die, he would Squat with water above your head.

Xiao Nianzhi went ashore, calmed down and thought about it, and decided on one thing.

Here, in the mirror.
