2446 Regret entering _1
The young man was scared out of his wits. He knew he had run into a ghost.
In the past, he had often heard of the legends of ghostly foxes and spirits, and he had always been interested in them. However, he did not expect that they would be so terrifying when he actually encountered them.
The young man’s only thought now was to quickly escape this place and find a place with many people to hide.
The more people there were, the more Yang Qi there would be. Even ghosts would be afraid of it. This was what the old man had said.
With this thought in mind, the young man rushed out of the vegetable garden and ran straight to the front door of the inn.
In the young man’s opinion, although there were ghosts in the garden in the backyard of the inn, the front should be safe.
With a few hundred people gathered together, the Yang Qi was like the blazing sun. What ghost would dare to provoke them?
However, the moment he rushed onto the street, he felt that something was wrong.
The road seemed to have become much more dilapidated. Although it was dark and he couldn’t see clearly, he could still feel the aura of destruction and decay.
The lights in the shops that they had passed by earlier had disappeared. At this moment, the doors were broken and the rooms were dark.
Although he was puzzled, the young man couldn’t care much and ran towards the inn.
Seeing a figure flash by the door, the young man immediately cried for help, saying that he was being chased by evil spirits.
However, after shouting, the young man immediately realized that something was wrong.
He saw that the originally lively entrance of the inn had also become quiet. White lanterns were hanging under the eaves, emitting a cold light that made people’s hearts palpitate.
The workers of the caravan were now lying on the table or on the ground, as if they had fallen asleep.
No matter how loudly the young man shouted, there was no reaction. He didn’t even move.
Fresh human heads were placed on the tables in the middle of the inn’s entrance, surrounded by headless corpses that gave off a strong smell of blood.
He then looked at the table and inside the shop. There were many stiff figures standing there. When the young man shouted for help, they all turned their heads in unison.
A stiff and sinister smile appeared on those cold and blue faces as they looked at the dumbfounded young man.
“Ah, ah Yingluo!”
Seeing this terrifying scene, the young man was so scared that he almost broke down. He let out a terrified roar and turned to run toward the city.
Just by looking at the heads on the table, he knew that the workers in the carriage had probably met with mishaps.
Although the young man and the other members of the convoy had traveled together, they had not had much contact with each other. Therefore, even though he saw that hundreds of people had met with misfortune, he did not feel anything special in his heart.
What made him worried was that since the inn was full of evil spirits, what about the other places?
The shops with broken doors and windows and the houses in the dark … Did something happen to them?
Just as he was letting his imagination run wild, he saw a fork in the street in front of him, making the young man not know where to go.
On the left side of the street, there were piles of wooden coffins, and an indescribable stench floated in the air.
On the street near the coffin, there were constantly dancing ghost flames. The strange scene was extremely eerie.
On the street to his right, he could faintly hear the laughter of women. Although they sounded very happy, it made the young man tremble.
In such a strange environment, there was actually a woman who was laughing so happily. He didn’t need to guess to know that there was a problem.
At this moment, he only had two paths to take. He could either turn back or continue forward.
Even if you beat the young man to death, he would not dare to look back, because on the street where he had come from, more and more strange figures were appearing on the street, slowly swarming towards his position.
Only by moving forward could he find a chance of survival.
However, in a split second, the young man had already made up his mind. Then, he braced himself and ran forward as if he was flying.
Perhaps he was not meant to die, but in the process of the young man’s escape, he was not intercepted and killed by the ghosts. It was a blessing in disguise.
However, the shock he experienced along the way almost made the young man collapse.
It was only now that he realized that it wasn’t just the inn that had turned into a ghost lair. The entire town had become a ghost town.
All the residents of the city should have turned into evil spirits. They had taken human form and were killing outsiders.
In addition, he also found that the closer he got to the center of the city, the stronger the heart-palpitating pressure was.
The young man couldn’t help but worry. After he entered the city, would he be able to make it out alive?
If the outer region was already so dangerous, then the central region of the city should be even more dangerous and terrifying.
Unfortunately, he had no other choice. Even though he knew that the city was dangerous, he could only brace himself and charge forward.
He didn’t know how long he had been running in the dark, but the young man was panting and had lost one of his shoes.
The young man didn’t have the time to search, and he didn’t dare to stop. It was as if there were malicious eyes staring at him from all directions.
After running for an unknown amount of time, the young man could no longer run, and his panting sounded like a broken bellow.
Although he couldn’t run anymore, he didn’t stop in the middle of the street. Instead, he climbed up a broken wall and climbed to the top of a house by the roadside.
To the young man, only hiding in such a place could give him enough sense of security.
Before he could catch his breath on the roof, the young man heard a loud noise. Flames suddenly rose up from the city Lord’s mansion not far from him.
The flames burned fiercely and were as glaring as the sun. The light from the flames illuminated the surroundings.
In the surrounding streets, there were countless figures, rushing forward like moths to a flame.
The young man opened his eyes wide and found that these figures were actually corpses. They died in all kinds of strange ways.
Although the young man did not have much knowledge, he could tell that these were all unlucky people who had died a violent death. Countless people had lost their heads and hands.
There were also some things that were neither human nor ghost. They had huge bodies and were roaring among the corpses.
“Dammit, what’s going on? what’s going on?”
The young man trembled in fear at the sight of such a terrifying scene. He regretted entering this man-eating town.
It would be extremely difficult to escape now.
Just as the young man was worried about his fate, he suddenly heard a conversation. It was obviously not from the monsters.
Although the young man could not understand the content of the conversation, he was still invigorated and felt that he was no longer alone.
Or rather, it was a kind of dark heart. When he saw others suffer with him, he felt much better.
Of course, if possible, it would be best if he could help him, or if everyone could work together to escape from this man-eating ghost city.
Just as the young man was about to observe a little more, he saw that the zombies on the street below began to surge forward, completely blocking his retreat.
There were also corpse monsters that discovered him and pounced over while roaring, trying to climb up the roof.
The young man was so scared that he immediately got up. He moved forward along the roof Wall, ready to climb to the highest building in the city Lord’s mansion.
As he advanced, he saw a familiar figure standing on the roof of a building.
It was Tang Zhen, who had inquired about the news at the hotel and given him gold coins.
The young man was overjoyed to see this. Meeting an acquaintance in this situation made him feel that his chances of escaping were higher.
“Your Excellency, please”
The young man opened his mouth in an attempt to ask for help. Who would have thought that he had just opened his mouth when he saw over ten men and women dressed in different clothes suddenly appear on a roof not far away. They were currently coldly looking at Tang Zhen on the opposite side.
