Everyone walked out of the stone house, their faces filled with suspicion and bewilderment. When Meng Xiaodie looked at that corpse, she also felt uneasy. She thought to herself, what exactly is the Earth Demon trying to do? Was it trying to destroy their psychological defenses?
From the crowd's reactions, it seemed that the Earth Devil had achieved its goal. Be it the green-eyed dwarf or Xu Dazhi, they all felt intense fear. Especially the shrimp and the ghost, they were scared out of their wits.
When they arrived at the fourth stone house, everyone looked at each other. Their eyes were filled with a complicated feeling of bewilderment and each of them had their own thoughts. There were still shrimp, Hong Kun, Wei Lin, Meng Xiaodie, and Shen Hong who had not seen their bodies. Wei Ke was still unconscious, but who would he be next?
The green-eyed dwarf rolled his eyes, winking at Xu Dazhi and Gui Tou, and laughed, "The three of us have already seen our corpses. If you guys are afraid, then don't go in. Let us take a look inside."
"This is a good idea." Hong Kun hurriedly said. He extended his head to take a look at the pitch-black entrance before withdrawing it.
The shrimp stood on the spot and didn't intend to enter at all.
"It's just a fake corpse inside, what's there to be afraid of?" Meng Xiaodie wanted to strengthen the courage of the others. He stepped into the stone house, and walked towards the bronze mirror coffin in the middle of the room. The bronze coffin opened with a "hualala" sound, and what surprised him was that it was empty.
Everyone let out a sigh of relief, it seemed like the Earth Demons were messing with them, the Yin Qi underground was too dense, and the underground castle was also like a huge ancient tomb. This already made everyone feel fear and unease, and the consecutive strange events made everyone even more uneasy.
Meng Xiaodie's kick had given everyone a peace of mind. There were only four rooms left. If nothing unexpected happened, perhaps the rest of the bronze mirror coffin would be empty.
After entering the fifth stone house, Meng Xiaodie went in again. As everyone had expected, the coffin was empty. Arriving at the first stone house, the green-eyed dwarf stopped Meng Xiaodie and laughed, "Meng Xiaodie, isn't it just a kick? I'll kick you, I'll kick you, and that'll save you some effort." He jumped in and kicked the coffin open, revealing a corpse inside.
The green-eyed dwarf was so scared that he quickly retreated, "Impossible, impossible!"
Shen Hong entered and saw that the corpse was actually Wei Ke's. When she came out and saw that Wei Ding was lying outside, it was only an instant. He suddenly sat up, looked around, and suddenly said, "Eight people, eight swords, eight stone houses!"
After he finished speaking, he suddenly lay back down.
Wei Chi suddenly sat up, said a bunch of nonsense, and then suddenly laid down, making the crowd at a loss of what to do. Everyone looked at each other as they looked at Wei Ke lying on the ground, and fear once again enveloped their faces.
Meng Xiaodie touched Wei's pulse. It was still obscure and weak, but Wei's breathing had become much steadier. It seemed as if he was sleeping.
Calming down, Xu Dazhi looked at the green-eyed dwarf and curled his lips, "Your kick was too good to kick out a corpse. Why are you trying so hard?"
"From now on, I won't kick you anymore, alright? Next time, I'll let you kick me."
"I won't kick," said Meng Hao. "I'll let Hero Meng kick me." Xu Dazhi grinned at Meng Xiaodie.
Arriving at the seventh stone house, Meng Xiaodie went inside. Inside were three bronze coffin mirrors.
The three coffins suddenly flew up into the air and crashed into him. Meng Xiaodie dodged them and then jumped to the side, kicking the coffins three times to the ground. The moment the coffins landed, the coffin opened up, revealing three corpses inside.
Hearing the crackling sounds coming from inside the stone house, and then the deathly silence, everyone walked in, trembling. They were dumbstruck by the scene in front of their eyes.
There were three corpses lying in a row. One was Hong Kun's, one was a shrimp, and the other was Shen Hong's.
"Wait, why isn't there Meng Xiaodie's corpse?" "Meng Xiaodie, did you play tricks on me?" The green-eyed dwarf looked at the corpse and asked a question.
"Screw you! Who's there to play any tricks? If you want to play, it's only because of your green eyes that you can do it." Xu Dazhi choked.
"Isn't there another stone house? Let's go take a look. " Shen Hong said. Seeing her corpse lying on the ground, she pretended to be calm. In reality, her heart was filled with fear, and she wanted to leave this place as soon as possible.
The eighth stone house was the last one, and from the outside, it looked no different from the other stone houses. The green-eyed dwarf was the first to rush in, and after waiting for about half a cigarette's time, there was no movement. Meng Xiaodie and Xu Dazhi followed him in, and even after half a cigarette's time, there was no movement. She was about to let the shrimp in to see what was going on when Wei Yin, who was lying on the ground, suddenly stood up and ran into the stone house while shouting.
It happened so suddenly that Shen Hong did not dare to be negligent. Bringing the remaining three people with him, he chased Wei Ke into the stone house, and only after entering did he find out that this stone house was completely different from the one in front of Qi Jian stone house. The space inside was separated by a copper mirror; they did not see the green-eyed dwarf, Meng Xiaodie, or Xu Dazhi. Where are the people who went in? Were they hiding behind the bronze mirror?
Shen Hong shouted twice, but the only response she got was silence, a deathly silence. There were bronze mirrors on all four sides, and one could see their own figures in them. Shen Hong did not dare to move, only Hong Kun, the shrimps, and the ghost head remained beside her. She carefully looked at the copper mirror beside her, and found a gap between the two mirrors, about the width of a person. She told the ghost head to go over and see what was behind the gap. Before Shen Hong could react, two bronze mirrors quickly moved away, separating her, Hong Kun, and the shrimp.
Shen Hong was surrounded in a very small space by herself. There were bronze mirrors all around her, and as she spun around, they reflected her terrified face. She did not know that the other seven people were in the same situation as she was. They were all surrounded in the copper mirror, and no matter how hard they kicked or punched, there was no result. Shen Hong punched the bronze mirror a few times. She found that her face suddenly changed, becoming ferocious, and she was just feeling confused, when she saw herself in the mirror punching at her, causing her to stumble and her eyes to turn gold. Before she could figure out what was going on, the person in the mirror punched again, causing her to dodge to the side.
She looked in the mirror again and saw that the person inside looked the same as her. It was indeed herself.
