The man's harsh laughter echoed in the hut, as if he was about to laugh for the last time. The man's crazy expression felt like a thorn in Xiaolan's back.
"What happened?" Pineapple couldn't help it anymore and moved closer to the Taoist priest, "What happened to Xiaolan?"
Seeing Pineapple coming, Xiaolan hammered the wall anxiously twice.
"How did you kill him? Where is the body?" Maple Sugar also came over and asked seriously with a frown.
Hey! Did you accept it so easily?
Xiaolan hammered hard in the direction of the maple syrup and scratched her head anxiously.
"I don't want to look for some bullshit boundary monument!" the man said, grabbing the dagger held by the Taoist Priest against his chest, "You will never see her again, just like that bitch, hahahahahaha!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the man used his last remaining strength to push the dagger into his chest.
Dark red blood spurted out, and the Taoist priest was unable to dodge. Not only blood emerged from the place where the dagger penetrated, but also a large amount of thick black smoke. The Taoist priest quickly retracted his arm, and the man's body slipped to the ground and lost consciousness.
The black smoke became thicker and thicker. Baomu covered his nose and hid aside, looking very painful.
"Xiaolan is behind this wall!"
The Taoist priest beat the wall hard, but it had no effect.
As the black smoke overflowed little by little, the space over there also gradually changed. The suffocating darkness that permeated the surroundings disappeared. The moonlight shone from the window, illuminating everything in the living room. From the door of the living room,
A long bloodstain spread in. It was not the blood that had just been shed by the Taoist priest or the man, but blood that had dried to the point of turning dark.
The room was covered in bloodstains that were either spattered or smeared, making it look like a real murder scene.
"The master of 'Jie' is dead, and 'Jie' is going to disappear!" Xiaoyin lowered her head and looked at the fly ash that the man had turned into, "Where's Xiaolan?"
The ‘boundary’ disappears?
Xiaolan looked around and saw that it was indeed different from before. She stretched out her finger and tentatively poked at the transparent wall.
there is none left.
"Look!" The little fool pointed over at the same time, "The wall has also disappeared."
Very good!
"Taoist!" Xiaolan jumped to the side of the Taoist with joy, raised her head and looked at him innocently.
The Taoist Priest did not look at him, but stared at the area he had just escaped from, without smiling.
Xiaolan looked at the others. Everyone seemed to have not seen her, and their eyes were wandering back and forth looking for her.
"Xiao...where is Xiaolan?" Pineapple's voice was trembling. When he heard this, Xiaolan's heart suddenly sank.
The Taoist priest took a step forward and walked straight to the small bedroom that had just been blocked by a transparent wall.
Xiaolan stretched out her hand and tried to hold the Taoist Master's arm, but what she came into contact with was the texture of the air that had not changed.
As his fingers passed through the Taoist priest's body, Xiaolan jumped away and froze on the spot.
I can see it, but I can't touch it.
Xiaolan hugged her shoulders and felt her presence.
The others followed the Taoist priest's footsteps into the bedroom and passed through Xiaolan's body without any reaction.
Xiaolan smiled bitterly.
Could it be said that I am really dead?
Death must have a process. When did I die and how did I die?
"This is trouble," the fool's voice sounded from the bedroom, "Xiaolan must have been dragged into the ruins..."
Market? What market?
Xiaolan's ears perked up.
The fool continued, "How did you get out of the ruins last time?"
"I crawled out on my own," this time it was Xiaoyin, "but I'm different. I'm not afraid of twisting the space. I have a talent for space."
"Then... how about you crawl in and save Xiaolan?"
"Be a human being, where can I climb?"
After hearing this, Xiaolan also started to look around. Since he could climb out, there must be an exit.
Except for the bloodstains, tables, chairs, and TV sets, the furnishings here are not significantly different from any other home.
Xiaolan walked to the window. The moonlight was bright and everything in the front yard came into view. The full yellow moon hung high in the sky, casting a slender shadow behind Xiaolan.
I still have a shadow, it seems that I am really not dead.
Xiaolan didn't know where this superstitious idea came from, but it comforted her.
Turning back to the bedroom, the friends still couldn't discuss a suitable rescue method. Xiaolan didn't even understand what the "Xu" was, but judging from their appearance, it was probably really difficult to deal with it.
It is said to be a bedroom, but in fact this small room is more like a warehouse. A small bed in the corner is filled with boxes of all sizes. There is also a small window behind the bedroom. The Taoist priest is standing in front of the window, looking out.
With.
Xiaolan approached, and the moonlight shone on the Taoist priest's face. The Taoist priest's profile was cold and resolute, but in Xiaolan's eyes, there was an indescribable tenderness.
Wait, moonlight?
Xiaolan looked out the window, and saw the huge full moon in the distant sky shining brightly, making the night look like day.
A chill slowly crept up my spine.
Why can I see the moon through the front window and the moon through the back window?
Turning his head to look behind him, he still saw his narrow, deformed shadow, but behind the others, there was nothing.
Am I the only one who can see this moon?
Two moons.
Symmetrical moon.
Xiaolan looked into the distance, and sure enough, the moonlight only illuminated the backyard, and the area outside was completely dark.
Running to the front window, the scene in the front yard is the same.
This is a false moon!
This is the moon that only exists in the ruins!
Xiaolan stared at the ground and backed away step by step.
Finally, she saw her own shadow.
Half-turning around, Xiaolan faced the wall. Two shadows crossed on her left and right sides. Xiaolan stood in the middle, looking up at the ceiling.
right here.
In the middle of the canopy illuminated by the moonlight, there was a faint black gap, as if ignored by the two moons, the gap was extremely dark.
Xiaolan remembered Xiaoyin's description and started climbing up.
The gap was narrowing visibly to the naked eye. When Xiaolan lifted the chair and put it on the coffee table, the gap was almost invisible.
It was too late. Xiaolan hadn't stabilized the chair yet, so she took the time to climb up step by step. The table and chair under her feet were shaking. Xiaolan stretched out her hands to maintain balance. When the shaking subsided, she slowly put her hands towards the gap.
The palm passed directly through the roof and disappeared into the darkness.
There was no special touch, but seeing the hand disappearing into the void, Xiaolan knew that she had made the right bet.
The gap became narrower and narrower. Seeing that only one person could pass through, Xiaolan grabbed the edge of the gap and could clearly feel that the gap was shrinking.
Gotta hurry!
Grasping the edge with both hands, Xiaolan tried to hook her feet on the wall to bring herself up.
Just put your left foot on the wall, use your strength, and push out your right foot.
"Wow!"
Before she exerted any force on her right foot, the chair supported below collapsed first. Xiaolan suddenly lost the support, her left foot also slipped, and her whole body was hanging in the air.
Fortunately, she didn't let go. Xiaolan clung to the edge, thinking desperately about how to climb back up while the gap was tightening rapidly.
If the gap disappears, I might really have to...
Xiaolan gritted her teeth and shook her body, trying to get as close to the wall as possible to provide herself with support.
The gap is still shrinking and is already narrower than my shoulder.
No way...
Absolutely not!
With her feet finally flat on the wall, Xiaolan looked at the gap that was about to disappear and raised her legs without hesitation to hook them.
Done!
His face was severely congested, so Xiaolan poured all his strength into that leg and used it to drive his body.
He was about to rush out of the gap, and suddenly, there seemed to be a hand grabbing his leg in the darkness.
Xiaolan was startled, but her movements did not stop. At the last moment when the gap disappeared, Xiaolan rolled out like a loach escaping from the pot. This chapter has been completed!
