Bai Qiuye was obviously shocked: "Why did you suddenly talk about elopement?"

Rong Wang's eyes wandered to the side, with a hint of embarrassment in his expression: "Well, what I mean is that the two of us can leave here before tonight and go live somewhere else."

Bai Qiuye could hardly hold the milk bucket: "Are we going to give up everything here?"

Rong Wan waved his hand: "No, we will only leave for a while. After this matter is over, we will come back."

Hearing this, Bai Qiuye breathed a sigh of relief: "That's it, okay, I'll go home and clean up now, and we'll meet on the bridge."

Rong Wan nodded, turned around and left calmly, but after leaving Bai Qiuye's sight, his face suddenly turned crimson.

Outside the dungeon of Purgatory, the staff of the Strange Investigation Bureau, including Leng Yulong, suddenly felt the urge to wash their eyes.

Especially Liu He, who had an impression of Rong Wang being powerful, cold and silent, wanted to dig out his own eyes.

Leng Yulong coughed and found that the others in his team were not paying attention to the scenes of Rong Wang and Bai Qiuye. He immediately breathed a sigh of relief and was slightly glad that at least he did not have to lose face in front of them.

Leng Yulong looked at them for a while without any trace, and through another lens, he found that the behavior of the other explorers was not much better.

Fortunately, this is a false identity, otherwise after they resolve this matter and leave the dungeon, many people will be burdened with a dark history that wakes them up every night.

Bai Qiuye returned home and quickly packed his luggage.

She opened her closet, put a few changes of clothes inside, and stuffed them all into a simple cloth backpack.

Bai Qiuye took cash, dry food and water and left the house without stopping.

She didn't notice that while rummaging through the clothes, a piece of yellow talisman slowly fell from the clothes to the ground, lying alone in the shadow of the cabinet.

Bai Qiuye quickly came to the bridge. After waiting for a while, she saw Rong Wan also hurried over carrying a package.

After the two met, Bai Qiuye asked him: "Where are you going?"

Rong Wang said: "To go to the back of this mountain, just go to a place where you won't directly see the buildings."

Bai Qiuye was still worried about that building, and then nodded.

After discussing, they planned to climb over the mountain and go to the town or village behind the mountain.

Bai Qiuye suddenly realized that he had no impression of what was behind this mountain.

She only knew that there was a mountain spring town next to the town where she lived, with several large farms and several villages.

But she couldn't remember what was behind the mountain.

Suspicion suddenly arose in Bai Qiuye's heart. She reflexively wanted to put this problem behind her, but suddenly found that she seemed to have encountered the same situation several times in the past two days——

Every time she would unnaturally ignore the obvious problems.

This is not normal!

Bai Qiuye's pupils shrank, she felt a chill behind her, and a feeling of being secretly controlled vaguely emerged in her heart.

After realizing this, she wondered whether she was making too much of a fuss.

She was about to ignore the past as before, but suddenly there was a sharp pain in her mind.

She once again made the mistake she just realized.

This time, she could clearly feel the violation. But she couldn't find the source of the problem yet, so she could only slowly find the reason.

Bai Qiuye's mind was all on this matter, and she didn't notice a collapsed tree trunk in front of her. She accidentally tripped over the tree trunk and almost landed on her hands, but Rong Wan caught her in time.

Rong Wan took her hand and pulled her up, asking: "What are you thinking about? Why don't you look at the road?"

"I just suddenly thought of something and felt that I wasn't cautious enough." Bai Qiuye stood up straight and asked, "Which direction are we going?"

Rong Wang nodded thoughtfully and replied: "North."

After he finished speaking, he took out a compass from his arms.

However, the two found that the compass was constantly rotating in the counterclockwise direction, and it seemed that there was something wrong with the magnetic pole inside.

Bai Qiuye said: "Is this broken?"

Rong Wang took the compass back: "I can't use this for now, but I still remember the way out."

Bai Qiuye breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good."

As she spoke, she and Rong Wang entered the forest and began to move up the mountain. They passed over bushes along the way, and the increasingly dense trees affected their speed.

Soon the sun reached the top of the head. Seeing this, Bai Qiuye took out two hard white cakes from his backpack and handed one of them to Rong Wan.

They ate the cakes with water to replenish themselves with some strength, and continued to take the lead with Rong Wang, preparing to leave over the mountain.

At this moment, Bai Qiuye found a collapsed tree trunk lying on the ground in front of him.

This tree trunk was broken by someone unknown, or it was cut down by the people who lived in this area. There was a lot of moss growing on it, and the color of the trunk was also a little black, and it looked like it had been dead for a long time.

Bai Qiuye was startled, pointed to the tree trunk and said, "It was the one that tripped me just now."

Rong Wang also noticed this and took out the broken compass again.

Bai Qiuye felt goosebumps all over her body: "We shouldn't be trapped here, right?"

Rong Huan thought for a while and said: "Let's go back first and see if we can go back. If possible, I will find a good compass."

Bai Qiuye nodded: "That's fine, it's better to go back than to be trapped in this forest."

The two turned around and walked back. Fortunately, they soon saw the stone bridge, the plains and the ghost's residence that were not blocked by trees.

They didn't stay long and immediately walked to the town. Rong Wan's family lived on a farm on the other side of the town. Bai Qiuye followed him there.

When he walked to the door, Rong Wang's neighbor jokingly asked, "When are you two going to get engaged?"

Bai Qiuye's nerves were tense at the moment. Hearing the neighbor's joke, he was only shy for a moment, and his attention immediately shifted to the matter of escape.

After a while, Rong Wang came out with a new compass.

Bai Qiuye quickly asked: "Is it good?"

Rong Wan nodded, but placed two compasses on his open palm: "However, the one that was broken just now has returned to normal."

Bai Qiuye pondered for a moment: "Is it because of that forest?"

Rong Wang put away the compass: "I'm afraid we can't leave before ten people die."

As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of crying came from the distance. The sound gradually became louder and came from a group of people carrying the coffin.

Walking in the front was Father Ma's son. He was holding the corner and crying very sadly.

They passed by the farm and came to the wheat field with the windmill, and their figures gradually faded away.

Bai Qiuye looked at their leaving figures and said, "Otherwise, we leave from the wheat field."

Rong Wang said: "You can try, but──"

Before he said anything, Bai Qiuye understood what he meant.

They have little hope of leaving here. They will most likely end up wandering in the wheat fields just like their previous experience of trying to leave over the mountains.

After taking a short rest, they tried to go to the other side of the wheat field and leave the area according to their new plan.

As soon as they passed the location of the windmill, the compass in Rong Huan's hand began to spin crazily, losing its effect once again.

Seeing this, the two became even more negative about this attempt.

But they did not give up and continued walking in the designated direction. However, even in the open wheat field, they still lost their way.

When night fell, they returned to the town. Their bodies were still fine, but their spirits were quite exhausted.

Rong Wang stepped on the cobblestones on the ground without leaving a trace, wanting Bai Qiuye to spend the night with him.

However, when he spoke, he retracted his words. He was worried that Bai Qiuye would think that he had other thoughts.

Bai Qiuye said: "Just stay here, be careful tonight."

In the end, Rong Wang couldn't say that, so he hummed, "Be careful when you go back."

After the two separated, Bai Qiuye returned to her residence. She took a look at her neighbor's mother-in-law's house. The lights were still on, which gave her a sense of security.

Bai Qiuye returned to the room. After washing, he hesitated whether he should spend the night with his eyes open tonight, but finally decided to get a full sleep.

Because she believed that if she was chosen by the ghosts, she would have absolutely no ability to resist. It was better to recharge her energy and replenish her physical strength, and let the sunshine the next day prove whether she was a lucky person.

Bai Qiuye quickly fell asleep, and when she woke up, the rooster outside was crowing.

Bai Qiuye got up from the bed. After confirming that he was not in an undead state, he quickly washed up and went out.

She was about to go find Rong Wang, but she saw many people passing by her door.

Bai Qiuye ran to that road, grabbed a random person and asked, "Why are you here? What happened?"

The man looked horrified and said: "Another dead person!!!"

Bai Qiuye was shocked: "Who is it?"

The man reached out and grabbed her arm, dragging her into the advancing team.

"We are about to go there, please come with us."

Next to Bai Qiuye's house, in addition to the neighbor's mother-in-law, there are several farmers a little further away.

They arrived at their destination soon. Bai Qiuye looked at the house in front of him and suddenly felt a little dazed.
