Lin Qiye stood behind the door, mentally paying attention to the scene outside the door.
I saw the white paper figure falling lightly on the gravel road in front of the house. On its pale face, a pair of asymmetrical eyes swept around. It looked at the house where Lin Qiye was hiding for a moment, then turned around and continued to move forward.
Search and go.
Lin Qiye breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the paper man leaving. In a place like this, if he was entangled by a paper man, Lin Qiye's speed might not be able to throw it away. Then the paper man would chase him.
More and more, the scene outside the giant bronze door will reappear sooner or later.
The methods of these paper figures were so weird that Lin Qiye did not want to have anything to do with them. He just wanted to leave this place as soon as possible and join his companions outside.
Lin Qiye reached out and tried to open the door of the house and was about to leave, but at this moment, he suddenly froze on the spot.
The house door, which had been opened and closed easily, was now motionless. No matter how hard he tried, he could not shake it at all!
Lin Qiye frowned slightly, and an ominous premonition emerged in his heart...
Snapped--!
In the dead silence and darkness, a soft sound came from the house behind Lin Qiye!
Lin Qiye turned around sharply, and his right hand instantly rested on the handle of the knife behind his back. Every muscle in his body was tense, ready to take action at any time.
His eyes swept across the dark courtyard and house, his eyes full of doubts.
Before entering this room, he had already used his mental power to scan everything in the house and confirmed that no one was here at all. In this case, where did the sound just come from?
Lin Qiye used his mental power to scan the surroundings inch by inch, comparing each object with its position before the sound was made. After a while, he finally found the source of the sound.
I saw that in the northeast corner of the yard, a broom wrapped in paper had fallen to the ground at some point.
"Paper broom?" Lin Qiye frowned. He clearly remembered that the sound just now was very crisp. It should be the sound of something hard falling on the ground. Even if it was a broom, it should be a real broom.
How could paper make such a sound?
Ga——
Boom——!
The door of the house in the center suddenly opened to the outside, and then quickly closed. The door hit the old threshold, making a slight collision sound! Lin Qiye turned his head fiercely and looked around, spreading his mental power to the extreme!
...nothing.
No one or anything touched the door, but it opened by itself, and then closed by itself... It was as if someone he couldn't see or feel was opening the door.
Lin Qiye frowned slightly. He held the handles of the knives behind his back with both hands, slowly pulled out the two straight knives from their sheaths, held them tightly in his hands, and walked step by step towards the house that made the noise.
The locked house door, the paper broom suddenly knocked down, the door that opens and closes automatically.
All this seems to indicate that there is a mysterious force in this house...or the existence of a mysterious person.
But Lin Qiye couldn't see it.
Lin Qiye walked to the door of the house with the knife in his hand and stopped. His mental power had already reflected all the scenes in the house into his mind. In addition to the pale paper bed, paper money, and paper tables and chairs in the house
, and nothing else.
Lin Qiye couldn't help but have some doubts in her heart. What on earth were such thin and light paper beds and paper-made tables and chairs used for?
If any heavy creature is on top, it will collapse them, right?
Lin Qiye shook his head, threw away these complicated thoughts, concentrated his attention, and was ready to take action at any time.
Even though judging from the mental feedback, there was nothing in the room, Lin Qiye did not relax at all, because he could vaguely guess that the things inside... he could not see or feel.
A touch of night suffused the door in front of Lin Qiye. Driven by the darkness, the door slowly opened...
Lin Qiye stood at the door holding the knife, a faint golden light appeared in his eyes.
puff--!!
As soon as the door opened a small opening, a large amount of paper money flew out from the crack in the door, flooding towards Lin Qiye!
Lin Qiye's pupils shrank suddenly, and he swung the two swords in his palms quickly. The light blue blades outlined a dense sword light in front of Lin Qiye. In an instant, all the paper money was chopped into pieces, and none of them touched Lin Qiye.
body! But Lin Qiye soon discovered that his actions were unnecessary.
Because these paper money contained no attack at all, they were lightly spilled from the door and flying in the air... They were just paper money.
Just when Lin Qiye was stunned, the paper tables and chairs in the room suddenly fell to the ground, as if someone had bumped into them.
The tables and chairs made of paper fell to the ground, and they also made a hard collision sound, as if what fell on the ground was not paper, but real wooden furniture.
Lin Qiye frowned slightly and slowly scanned the room. There was no sign of anyone.
After hesitating for a moment, he simply spread his palms and whispered:
"Wild fire, in spring.
"
Ode——!
A wisp of fire appeared in his hand, and he gently turned his palm to burn all these weird paper tables, chairs, and paper money.
At this moment, a piece of paper money suddenly floated from the ground!
The piece of paper money flew tremblingly in front of Lin Qiye. Lin Qiye was stunned when he saw this scene.
I saw a few large characters crookedly written in black lines on the piece of paper money.
——Master, have mercy!
Master, please spare my life?
Lin Qiye looked at these words in astonishment and stood there blankly. After a moment, he tentatively said: "Are you... human?"
The piece of paper money fell back to the ground, and the black lines were outlined again out of thin air.
Soon, the second line of words appeared on the paper money. - We are ghosts, ghosts living here.
Lin Qiye frowned.
The third line of words quickly emerged.
——Master, if you really want to kill me, just kill me! Let my wife and daughter go. My daughter was just frightened. She accidentally knocked off the broom in the corner and disturbed the master. Please be kind to me!
When Lin Qiye saw this sentence, the paper broom that had just fallen to the ground suddenly appeared in his mind, and the doubt in his heart became even stronger.
The one who knocked off the paper broom was also a ghost?
However, he still dispersed the flame in his hand. Judging from the current situation, these ghosts did not seem to pose a threat to him.
Lin Qiye said in a deep voice: "Whether it's a ghost or a human being, I don't seem to have offended you. Why did you lock the door and not let me out?"
The fourth line was written quickly on the paper money, as if he was afraid that if he wrote slowly, he would be beaten to death by Lin Qiye.
——Master, we didn’t lock the door on purpose! All the doors here are like this. The dead can enter, but the living cannot exit.
You are a living person, you can come in from the outside, but it is difficult to get out from the inside!
"Where are you?" Lin Qiye asked in confusion, "Where...is this place?"
The ghost paused, and after a moment, he wrote two big characters on the paper money.
Chapter completed!
