If I had to use one word to describe Bai Mo's current state, Lu Zhan felt that "letting go" is the most appropriate word.
To put it more bluntly, the current white ink is somewhat abnormal.
This is more reflected in the emotional aspect. He has changed his mood many times along the way, sometimes being extremely indifferent, sometimes being extraordinarily detached, as if he suddenly lost some emotional balance.
Lu Zhan realized that this might not be a good sign.
Fortunately, the weird one-eyed old man didn't make any unusual movements during this period. He remained hunched over and staring at the ground as the two of them saw him at the beginning, as if he was really looking for his lost eye.
"Uncle, how far are we from that living person?" Lu Zhan suddenly asked.
He gave Xia Yuxi an ice crystal cube before she fell asleep. One of the functions of this thing was to allow him to confirm the position of the holder. But the problem was that he never felt anything after coming here.
There are two most likely reasons why this happened. One is that the distance between him and Xia Yuxi is too far for his perception to spread; the other is that his perception is blocked due to some factor.
Of course, there is another reason, that is, he and Xia Yuxi did not enter this "dream" physically, but were really dreaming. Everything that happened so far was false. If the outside world could not be brought in, he naturally could not
Sensing the position of the ice crystal cube.
This was also another purpose of giving the ice crystal to Xia Yuxi, which was to find an opportunity to confirm whether this place was a dream or reality.
"No rush, there's still a while." Faced with his inquiry, the one-eyed old man stopped and said calmly, "Remember, don't talk when walking around, don't break the rules."
He glanced at a dark corner, thoughtfully.
When Bai Mo heard this, although he didn't know who he was looking for, he still couldn't help complaining: "Aren't you in a hurry? If you don't hurry, the living will become dead after a while."
Suddenly there was a strange sound in the sky.
The three of them raised their heads and saw a huge snake head emerging from the sky. It swallowed a strange big bird in one bite. Its vertical eyes were cold and it quickly disappeared into the gray mist.
"What a bizarre dream..."
Bai Mo murmured, not realizing that his voice had become particularly cold.
"Isn't it good to be dead? Then there's no need to bother looking for it." The old man looked away and smiled, "But today is quite interesting. There is actually more than one living person in the coffin ground."
He licked his lips, the wrinkles on his face were squeezed together, and the only remaining eye was shining with a faint light.
"More than one living person?" Lu Zhan's expression changed slightly, and he was a little unsure of what the old man meant. Does this mean that besides them, there are more living people here?
The old man didn't say much and looked in one direction: "Here, there's one over there."
Bai Mo and the other two looked along his line of sight, and saw a figure in the gray mist in the distance, running around a house, and seemed to be carrying someone on his back.
Xia Yuxi!
Lu Zhan breathed a sigh of relief, but when he saw the thing behind the other party, his heart started to rise again. This woman's situation seemed not to be good.
"Hey, this guy is carrying someone on his back even when running. Is he exercising with weights?" Bai Mo sighed.
The one-eyed old man's eyes moved slightly with a cold expression, as if he was looking at Xia Yuxi who was not far away.
At this moment, Bai Mo suddenly patted his shoulder and said seriously: "Uncle, to be honest, I think you can learn this kind of exercise."
The old man didn't speak, he just tightened his grip on the white crutch in his hand.
At the same time, Xia Yuxi, who was not far away, had obviously noticed them. She paused slightly, but did not approach them immediately, appearing a little wary.
Lu Zhan noticed the ice carving knife in Xia Yuxi's hand and initially confirmed the other party's identity. However, even though the two of them were so close, he still had no feeling for the ice crystals, and his heart sank.
Is it really blocked...?
He thought about it and walked quickly towards Xia Yuxi, but saw that the "person" behind him seemed to react suddenly and tilted his neck to look over.
His face was pale, painted with strange characters, and he had no facial features——
It’s a paper man!
Lu Zhan didn't dare to be careless and secretly activated his ability, causing the paper man's body to freeze quickly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Feeling the coolness behind her back, Xia Yuxi realized that this seemed to be Lu Zhan's ability, so this person should be the real Lu Zhan. She was relieved at first, but also a little confused.
It's not surprising that Lu Zhan appears, but why is that guy named Bai Mo also here?
Lu Zhan walked up to her, threw the frozen paper figure to the ground, and asked, "Are you okay?"
"It's okay, I'm just a little tired."
"You were just circling the room."
Xia Yuxi was startled and quickly explained her experience to Lu Zhan. Then she dared to turn around and saw the paper man on the ground. Even without the facial features, she seemed to be able to feel the sinister smile on the paper man's face.
She still felt a little frightened when she remembered that she had been running around with this weird paper man on her back.
At this moment, Bai Mo and the old man came over. The former glanced at the frozen paper man on the ground, and then looked at Xia Yuxi: "I said this..."
His voice paused and he asked in shock, "Why is it you?"
How could I dream about this woman?
"I still want to ask you." Xia Yuxi was so angry when she saw this guy, "Why are you here?"
"This is my dream, of course I am here." Bai Mo said confidently, and then said blankly, "But why did I dream about you?"
Lu Zhan interrupted: "I'm thinking..."
"roll."
Bai Mo interrupted him in time, glanced at Xia Yuxi's chest secretly, and shook his head secretly.
This dream of mine is really real, it was perfectly restored...
Dream? What dream?
Xia Yuxi was confused and was about to ask, but she felt a slight coldness again. She quickly realized that this was Lu Zhan telling her not to talk nonsense.
While she was thinking, she suddenly felt a very uncomfortable feeling, and then she noticed that the one-eyed old man with his head lowered was looking at her with his head tilted.
The old man was trembling all over, as if he was cold, but his eyes contained no emotion, which gave her an inexplicable feeling of creepiness.
Who is this guy...
Lu Zhan blocked the old man's sight in time and said softly: "Uncle, thank you, we have found the man."
"Is she this woman? She's a little trick to spy on people's souls...another annoying guy."
The old man spoke calmly, thought for a moment and continued, "There are still living people not far ahead. Do you want to see them?"
"Want to see!"
Before Lu Zhan and the other two could speak, Bai Mo quickly expressed his position.
He wanted to see who else he would dream about.
"Then come with me."
After the old man finished speaking, he first stabbed the paper figure on the ground with his white cane, and then walked in one direction.
Lu Zhan remained calm, wondering why this guy wanted to pierce the paper man, but he didn't ask any more questions and quickly followed him.
Xia Yuxi was also full of doubts. As Lu Zhan was by her side now, there shouldn't be any danger in a short time, so she had time to think about it seriously.
The team began to move forward in silence.
She first glanced at Lu Zhan, who looked solemn, and then at Bai Mo, who kept looking around with curiosity, and suddenly felt a sense of unreality in her heart——
What on earth is this guy here for, and why is he not nervous at all?
Also, why did he appear here? Could it be that, like Lu Zhan, he used a certain method to get in here?
etc……
Xia Yuxi suddenly remembered something.
On the day she encountered the corpse knocking incident, Bai Mo was also present!
So is he also a victim of that incident?
But why were there so many people who encountered the corpse knocking incident, but only a few were attacked?
And...if we have to say that she and Bai Mo have something in common, maybe it's just that they both heard the knock on the door, right?
The knock on the door is key…
There is no doubt about this.
But the question is, why do so many people hear the knock on the door, but only a few are attacked in the end?
Xia Yuxi tried hard to recall the knock on the door she heard that day, and then thought about the couple and the voices in the memory of the deceased upstairs.
The three overlapped, and gradually, the knock on the door became clearer in her mind——
"Dong dong dong dong dong!"
There were five strikes in total, the rhythms were different, but the pauses were exactly the same.
