It rains frequently here, and sometimes it rains heavily. However, this house looks very new under such circumstances, as if it has just been renovated. It is hard not to feel strange.

Lu Hongling even had an illusion that this house had been here before Xi Yu came. After hundreds or even thousands of years of wind and sun, it still remained so brand new day after day and year after year.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

A house is originally a dead object, but when you think about it this way, it seems as if the house is alive.

After calming down, Lu Hongling made sure that there was no one around and Xi Yu was not there either. Then she rushed across the yard and came to the door of the stone house.

The door of the stone house was ajar but not locked.

She exerted a little force and pushed the door of the stone house a little open, then swayed her body and squeezed in.

The gap in the door was very narrow, and with her body size, it should have been impossible for her to squeeze in, but Lu Hongling got in anyway.

I'm afraid even Gu Jiu can't do this kind of ability to turn his body into as thick as paper in an instant.

This is Lu Hongling’s unique skill. Being a “paper man” is not that easy.

After entering the stone house, Lu Hongling was in a state of high alert, but her breathing and footsteps were still very light, almost non-existent.

Just like Gu Xiaoxiao said, their master's skills are most suitable for being a thief, and he might even be able to visit the Galan Palace.

Now this "thief" is standing in this house that has probably not been visited by anyone else for hundreds of years. Can he steal some shameful secrets?

Chapter 7: Don't Want to Eat People

The interior of this stone house is as simple as its exterior, with only a stone bed, a stone bench, and not even a table.

It is hard to imagine that a person can live in such an environment for hundreds of years.

Even Lu Hongling, who was used to sleeping in the open air, felt a chill when she looked at the cold stone bed.

The stone bed is not scary, what is scary is sleeping on it for hundreds of years.

The house didn't even have many beams, so she could see everything at a glance, so she quickly reached the end.

Lu Hongling knew that this place that had buried secrets for hundreds of years could not be so simple.

The simpler the house looked on the surface, the more Lu Hongling felt that it contained a lot of secrets.

Lu Hongling’s first reaction was that it was a trap.

She has been to many places, so her knowledge is naturally broad.

The next moment, Lu Hongling closed her eyes, and her consciousness turned into countless invisible tentacles, which quickly covered the entire small room.

Soon, she discovered that there was still space underground.

"I was wondering how anyone could live in a place like this for so long." Lu Hongling withdrew her spiritual sense and came to the southwest corner of the house.

Through exploration, she found that there was nothing underneath the stone slab in front of her, so she pressed the five fingers of her right hand on the stone slab. After confirming that there was no powerful mechanism using her own method, she lightly hooked the edge of the stone slab with her right index finger, and the stone slab was lifted up very easily.

In fact, Gu Xiaoxiao’s conclusion was very correct, that is, her master was really suitable to be a thief.

After the stone slab was lifted, it was pitch black underneath and nothing could be seen clearly.

Lu Hongling waited for a moment, and after confirming that there was no danger inside for the time being, she jumped down and covered the stone slab again as if it had never been moved.

It was very dark under the stone slab, but Lu Hongling could tell by her senses that it was a downward passage.

So she began to move down carefully, and still landed silently, like a ghost in the darkness.

But if you come to a place like this, I'm afraid ghosts will be scared to death, after all, the owner of this place is too scary.

The further down she went, the colder Lu Hongling felt. She even had the illusion that there was an ice storage full of ice below.

After all, it is rare to have severe cold in Miaojiang, but at this moment she felt the cold with her physique.

The downward passage was not long, but it was somewhat winding, and the stone walls were rough and covered with gravel, like the intestines of some animal.

After about half an incense stick of time, Lu Hongling stopped because the passage had come to an end.

At this time, Lu Hongling took out a night pearl and shook it forward.

What appeared before her was a very ordinary wooden door. Apart from looking very new, as if it had just been planed by a carpenter, there was nothing special about it.

Lu Hongling guessed that there might be a rather luxurious room behind the door. After all, she had seen many people's secret caves.

For example, some court officials appear to be honest and their houses look simple and plain, but the interior is a scene of luxury.

Lu Hongling didn't believe that anyone could live in a stone house like the one above her head for hundreds of years, so she almost concluded that the place behind the door was Xi Yu's secret palace.

But when she pushed the door open with a creak, she realized she was wrong.

Inside is a stone house.

Although the stone wall above my head has been simply polished, it is not regular and is only slightly better than a natural cave.

In this situation, even Lu Hongling's eyesight was not working well.

When her perception spread out and confirmed that there were no other living creatures in the entire space, she spread out her palms and the light of the night pearl spread out.

Lu Hongling took a deep breath and began to observe the surrounding situation. When she approached the wall of the house, she couldn't help but take a few steps back and her breathing became rapid.

I saw that the rough walls of the house were covered with words.

Bright red words!

These words spread from one end of the wall to the other, overlapping each other, making people's scalps tingle.

What was even more bizarre was that although there were many words on the wall, there were only four words that kept appearing over and over again: "I don't want to eat people."

The characters were distorted, and each stroke looked like the dying struggle of a drowning person. Even from such a distance, Lu Hongling could still feel the chill permeating from them.

"Don't want to eat humans?"

Lu Hongling looked around and felt that the walls were about to ooze blood.

She took a few deep breaths and adjusted her mood.

Having been a world traveler for so many years, Lu Hongling can be considered a person who has truly seen the world. However, this world experience not only did not make her calm, but instead made her extremely sensitive to some things.

It is this sensitivity that has allowed her to survive until now.

She moved her nose and didn't smell any blood, but the words on the wall looked like they were painted with blood.

She even imagined a person in this simple house, like a trapped beast or a madman, writing these words on the wall over and over again in a mad state, and not stopping even when his blood was about to run out.

This room was also not big. There was nothing special about it except that the four walls and the roof were covered with the words "Don't Want to Eat People".

A house like this doesn't even have a stone bench. It's bare and it's not an exaggeration to call it a cage.

There is a wooden door in the southwest corner of the house.

Very new wooden door.

The light from the night pearl was projected onto the wooden door, and one could even see the slightly curled up sawdust.

Lu Hongling felt very uncomfortable in this room, so she decided to speed up her exploration.

So she opened the door without hesitation.

Behind the door was another rough stone chamber.

There was still nothing in the stone chamber, only the walls and the roof were covered with words.

Bloody words.

These words were stacked on top of each other, and this time only three words were repeated - "want to eat people".

The previous house was "not wanting to eat people", while this house was "wanting to eat people". Seeing this, Lu Hongling's scalp couldn't help but feel numb.

If the words on the wall of the previous room were full of coldness and despair like drowning, then the words on the wall of the room in front of him seemed a little crazy.

Lu Hongling didn't get close to the wall at all because she had an illusion that if she got close to the wall, the words on the wall would really eat her.

In this strange house, beads of sweat had already appeared on Lu Hongling's forehead.

Even though she was a world traveler and had experienced many mysterious events, big and small, and even though she was a master of the Moving Mountains Realm and there were few people in the world who could kill her, she still felt tremendous pressure at this moment.

Here she seemed to have become a little child, surrounded by man-eating ghosts!

At this time, Lu Hongling discovered that there was another wooden door in the southwest corner of the house.

The wooden door stood there quietly, like a ghost's tightly closed mouth.

Chapter 8 The End

It’s the same stone house, the same blood-colored words, and the same wooden door in the southwest corner, but it brings a completely different atmosphere.

If the atmosphere in the previous room was cold, icy, and despair, then this room was full of appetite, crazy appetite.

It is hard to imagine under what circumstances a person would write so many crazy words in this room.

Want to eat people.

The two oppressive and terrifying atmospheres were connected by an open wooden door. An ordinary practitioner would have been frightened to the point of being unable to move.

Lu Hongling was under such pressure and tried her best to remain calm.

But she didn't know if it was an illusion or something, but she always felt that after entering here, many of her emotions were magnified.

For example, fear.

While suppressing her emotions, Lu Hongling couldn't help but look at the wooden door in the southwest corner.

If it were in the past, she would have probably been exhausted by now, but this time was different, because her time was running out. She was not afraid of death and had already decided to take a gamble, so Lu Hongling naturally would not back down at this time.

Lu Hongling came to the wooden door. Through the light of the night pearl, she could clearly see that her hairs were standing on end.

She could feel the crazy emotions in the bloody words on the wall. She had told Gu Xiaoxiao before that paintings can convey the spirit, and so can words.

Faced with this wooden door, Lu Hongling did not push it for a while because she was really scared.

She had an illusion that behind this wooden door might be the Yellow Springs Hell.

After hesitating for a long time, Lu Hongling finally extended her hand.

With a creaking sound, the wooden door of the second room was pushed open.

Lu Hongling didn't rush in, but adjusted her breathing.

The amplified sense of fear has already had a significant impact on her emotions, and she must keep herself awake.

Behind the wooden door was still a simple stone chamber. Lu Hongling was not in a hurry to look at the walls and roof.

At this time, she held the night pearl and walked into the darkness.

After experiencing the baptism of those two rooms, she felt that darkness was a little safer.

But this sense of security was short-lived because a small sound suddenly came from above my head.

Drop, drop, drop...

It was like the sound of dewdrops falling from lotus leaves.

The source of the sound was above her head, just a few steps away from her.

This kind of sound will undoubtedly give people a lot of imagination, but imagination in such an environment is often inappropriate.

The experienced Lu Hongling knows how to end her imagination, not by stopping thinking about it, but by seeing the truth.

Then she opened her palms again, and the cool light of the night pearl spread out, shining on the roof.

What was dripping from the roof was blood, because there was a bleeding ear hanging on the roof.

Lu Hongling looked around and found that more than half of the room was covered with ears.

Bloody human ear.

The remaining small part without ears was filled with ear shapes.

Lu Hongling felt like her scalp was about to explode because there were so many ears here, of different sizes and shapes, all covered in blood.

But how easy is it to find a bloody ear?

You know, the blood will coagulate in less than a day, but these ears actually look so "fresh"?

Just as she thought of the word "fresh", Lu Hongling felt a chill on her head.

Because just now only one ear was bleeding, but now there is more.

For a moment, the blood falling from the ears on the roof was like sporadic drizzle, quickly soaking Lu Hongling's shoulders and hair.
