What is a demon? Meng Xiaodie asked herself in her heart. He had never met a demon before, so his impression of one was almost blank.

In fact, perhaps the demon was a legend, a natural phenomenon that humans could not understand, an abnormal species that exceeded the scope of humans. However, in the underground castle, the demon had indeed rushed into Meng Xiaodie's field of vision.

Is this true? Or an inexplicable illusion?

Meng Xiaodie asked Jiang Bufan who was walking beside her, "What is a demon?"

Jiang Bufan was stunned. He looked at Meng Xiaodie, "Why are you asking this?"

Meng Xiaodie smiled and said, "I was just casually asking."

"Are you in love with her? Maybe a Banshee has fallen for you? " Jiang Bufan chuckled.

"Stop bullshitting, it's impossible for humans and demons to be together." Meng Xiaodie said firmly.

"That may not be so. In ancient times, there were many beautiful tales of humans and demons in love. That's why, it is not impossible for humans and demons to be together."

"Sigh, look at that Baige. She's practically a little beauty." Jiang Bufan touched Meng Xiaodie's shoulder and said with a smile.

Meng Xiaodie declined to comment. He said to Jiang Feifan, "I remember the ancient book saying that humans avoid things, and their arrogance will be taken away. In other words, the reason why demons arise is entirely because of humans. "

Jiang Feifan laughed, "Demons are born from the heart. In the Warring States era, in order to fight for the throne, brothers slaughtered, and the calamity caused by humans turned into demonic winds in all directions. Actually, true demons exist in the hearts of humans. If a person did not act according to the rules of humanity, then he would often cause trouble. "But …"

"But what?" Meng Xiaodie couldn't help but ask when she saw Jiang Bufan hesitating to speak.

"This exploration of our underground castle has changed my view of demons. Demons aren't what we think they are. I don't know if the demons we see are real demons or not."

Up till now, he still had not figured out whether the demon he saw in the underground castle was an illusion or real, but in his opinion, in this kind of strange environment, the truth and falsehood did not matter at all. What was important was how they could escape from this predicament and walk out of this strange circle of weavers. Meng Xiaodie wished that all of this was just a dream.

"The purpose of our expedition to the underground castle was nothing more than to behead demons and exterminate demons, to protect the peace of a region." Meng Xiaodie seemed to be talking to herself.

"Jiang Bufan smiled as if he was noncommittal to Meng Xiaodie's words." If the demon is real, then no matter how the demon is adorned, it cannot conceal the demon's true malevolence. "

Jiang Bufan's words caused Meng Xiaodie to be moved. In front of her eyes appeared Bai Xuanyin's face. Suddenly, it turned into a wide white face, dark eyes, and a strange and savage expression.

Meng Xiaodie thought to herself, that's the true face of a crawling person, Bai Xuan Niang, it's just a kind of beautiful illusion.

The street in front was long and dim, and the green-eyed dwarf was walking in a hurry. He jumped to the front and asked Meng Xiaodie, "How long is this street exactly? When will we end if we continue walking like this?"

"If you don't go on like this, do you have any other choice?" Meng Xiaodie asked.

The green-eyed dwarf looked at the fog on both sides of the street, "Why can't we take a look at the two sides? Perhaps there are some small paths on both sides of the street."

"Don't even think about it. The two sides of the street are a boundless wilderness filled with piles of hay and tree bark. If you don't want to die then you should just obediently walk forward." Meng Xiaodie said.

"However, there are quite a few beauties within that wilderness." Jiang Bufan purposely put on airs.

"Beauty?" The green-eyed dwarf smirked, "It's good to have a beauty. In this underground castle, if we don't encounter strange insects, then it's just demons. It's not in vain for us to find a beauty to chat."

"Be careful that the beauties will eat you up. Do you think that there are so many beauties waiting for you to chat? Those are all powerful crawling people with profound martial arts." Meng Xiaodie scared the green-eyed dwarf.

The green-eyed dwarf chuckled, "It's not a bad thing to be eaten by a beautiful woman. People die in the process of blooming, even as ghosts."

"Hey, look, what's in front?" Shen Hong interrupted their conversation and suddenly said.

The few of them looked ahead. In the darkness, there was a towering object blocking their view. It was dark and was as wide as the street surface, but it was taller than a few people.

"Could it be a giant monster?" The green-eyed dwarf said softly as he stopped in his tracks.

"You guys stay here, I'll go take a look." Meng Xiaodie said to everyone.

He walked straight over. The thing in front was getting closer and closer, bigger and bigger, but it was motionless like a motionless object. Only when Meng Xiaodie approached it did she finally see that it was a stone arch bridge.

Listening carefully, there was the sound of flowing water. Although he could hear the sound of flowing water, he felt that the sound was very far away, as if it came from a thousand miles away. The stone bridge was very tall. There were steps on both sides of the bridge, and the stairs were built from that kind of limestone. The surface of the limestone was smooth and shone with a faint green light.

It was a huge coffin, even taller than Meng Xiaodie. It was pitch-black in color, dark and solemn, giving off a sinister feeling. The coffin was placed in the middle of the bridge, and only one person could pass through on both sides.

Meng Xiaodie went back and told them what she saw. Everyone felt strange, why was there a coffin on the stone bridge?

"Could it be the Bridge of Helplessness?" The green-eyed dwarf guessed.

"This isn't the Road to River Styx, how can there be a Bridge of Helplessness?" Shen Hong said.

"I can't say for sure. Maybe we are walking on the Road to River Styx." The green-eyed dwarf chuckled.

"Shut your crow's beak, Green Eyed Dwarf. Can you say a few words of wisdom?" Shen Hong said angrily. He ignored him and quickly walked to the front.

The group walked towards the stone arch bridge and climbed onto it. Sure enough, they saw the huge black coffin placed in the middle of the bridge.

"Are there going to be people crawling around here?" Wei Lin looked at the huge black coffin with trepidation.

"That's not necessarily true. These crawling people can do anything they want." Jiang Xian said.

"This black coffin is just in front, we can't get past it, even if there's someone on both sides, if something suddenly pops out from it, it would be terrible." Shen Hong looked at the coffin and didn't know what to do.

"Miss Shen, don't worry. I'll go take a look." In order to make up for his misspoken words, the green-eyed dwarf volunteered himself and leaped forward.

Before he reached the black coffin, it suddenly started rotating on the spot. Black smoke was coming out from the coffin, and the smoke was dense. The black coffin began to shake intensely, letting out a sharp and shrill scream.
