C18 He lost his companion on the way and rushed through the courtyard alone!

I kept having the feeling that something was wrong with the current Mu Chen and Lin Dan. Seeing that they were about to enter the courtyard, I hastily shouted from behind.

"Danshen, Mu Chen, don't go in." When Danshen heard my voice, she turned around to look at me.

It looked a little like the ghosts we saw in the deserted town. My heart skipped a beat, and I wanted to chase after them to see what was going on. However, Lin Dan and Mu Chen had already walked into the courtyard.

I couldn't help but quicken my pace and follow them inside. Just as I reached the door, a cold wind blew out, making it hard for me to open my eyes.

After the cold wind passed, I opened my eyes, but the figures of Danshen and Danshen were no longer there.

"Danshen, Mu Chen, where are you? Danshen? Mu Chen? "

I called out a few times, but there was no response. The surroundings were eerily quiet, because there was no light. It was pitch black and I couldn't see anything.

Somehow I felt a chill in the air.

Hugging on my arm, I steeled my heart and stepped across the threshold. At the doorway, I found the torch that Mu Chen was holding.

I picked it up and found that it was still burning. I waved it in the air and the fire lit up. The surroundings clearly appeared in my eyes.

The courtyard was dilapidated, with ruins everywhere. I raised my torch, carefully walked in, and loudly shouted out Danshen's and Mu Chen's names as I walked.

My voice echoed in the courtyard, and in the light of the torches my shadow was reflected against the walls, flickering with the vibrations of the torches.

Now I was scared.

The torch flames were flickering with a faint blue light. I tightened my grip on the torch and mustered the courage to enter the hall.

The house was huge. There was a staircase leading up to the second floor. There were two doors on each side of the hall. There were also two passageways leading to the back of the hall.

I hesitated for a bit, because I didn't know where Mu Chen and Danshen were, so I could only search one place at a time.

I tiptoed to the left side of the door and pushed it open. With a creaking sound, I pushed the door open. I raised the torch forward and saw a pair of embroidered shoes in front of me.

I cried out in fear and pushed my body backwards. Unexpectedly, I touched the doorstep. My body fell backwards and I fell to the ground. The torch fell to the side as I frantically got up and grabbed the torch in my hands.

Suddenly, he raised his head and saw one. No, it was a room full of hanging women. Their hair was all over the place and their faces couldn't be seen. All he could see were long, purplish red tongues. His head was swaying in the wind along with his ash-grey long sleeves, like a sausage hanging from a branch ?

Looking at this scene, I no longer cared about being afraid or disgusted. The only thought in my mind was to leave this place. My hand tightly gripped onto the torch as I quickly ran out of the room.

Exiting from the left ear, I realized that my hand that was holding the torch had long since been drenched in sweat. I called out to Danshen and Taoist a few times, but there wasn't even a single response.

If something happened to them, I'd be guilty for the rest of my life, so I went on calling my name from house to house.

When I reached the right ear, I didn't dare to push it anymore. I could only hold the torch against the door and creak as I pushed it open. The light from the fire illuminated everything.

Seeing that there was nothing in the room, I looked around the room with relief.

He couldn't help but be confused. That room just now was so terrifying. Logically speaking, it was impossible for there to be nothing in that room at all!

As I walked deeper into the house, I lit up the surroundings with my torch. I didn't know where the corner would be, because I didn't know whether or not Mu Chen and Danshen would be here.

Just as I took two steps forward, I felt something grab my ankle. It was cool. I shone the torch downwards and was so shocked that I nearly jumped up from the ground.

Heavens, what kind of hand was that?

Already dehydrated, clutching my ankle, I tried to kick it off with my other foot, only to find that I couldn't, just as I was struggling to pry it open with my hand.

I heard a familiar voice in my ear.

"Boundless Heaven and Earth, Cosmic Bend!"

As soon as I heard the voice, the withered hand on my ankle loosened.

"Taoist, you're okay, that's great!" I looked at Taoist Mu Chen, who was not far from me, with shock and joy. He was currently holding onto the black sword with one hand and forming finger seals with the other.

Mu Chen nodded his head, just as he was about to ask Danshen's whereabouts, he had already grabbed my hand and spoke first.

"It's not safe here, there's a problem with the water, Danshen was taken away, why don't you come out with me first!"

I nodded and followed Mu Chen all the way out of the courtyard before I stopped to catch my breath. I didn't care about my fear and quickly inquired about Danshen's situation.

Mu Chen told me that once we passed the couples' graves, he would close his Heaven's Eyes. Opening the Heaven's Eyes would consume too much mana.

On the other hand, Liu Ye above Danshen and I had a time limit. It was only two hours, which was why we were struck by it ?

After he finished speaking, Mu Chen posted Liu Ye on the wall and gave me his black sword.

When I opened my eyes again, I saw the originally clear stream under the bridge. At this moment, there was black blood in the red, and not only that, there was also a terrible stench coming from it.

I pinched my nose, endured the turmoil in my stomach and asked Mu Chen, what should we do now?

I was very worried for Danshen, but Mu Chen told me, since they captured Danshen to deal with us, they shouldn't harm her for now.

However, this courtyard is very strange, we should go find Danshen first.

As we spoke, we once again arrived at the great hall from before. Just as Mu Chen was about to walk towards the left, I pulled him back and timidly said that it was filled with hanging women.

Mu Chen kicked the door open.

Indeed, just like what I saw just now, the room full of "sausages" still swayed gently in the wind.

We went to the room on the right side where Mu Chen had grabbed my ankle. Mu Chen poked the room with a wooden stick and said that the room was filled with male corpses.

All of a sudden, I felt the hairs on my back stand up.

Then, he went to the two small rooms at the back. It was similar to what he had seen previously, but it was even more cruel than what he had seen earlier. In one of the rooms, there were two small rooms at the back, it was similar

In the other room, there was a large pool of water. Inside the pool, there were all white haired old men that were soaked to the brim with swelling. All of them had drowned, and their eyes were filled with despair and fear.

We stood in the middle of the hall, Mu Chen looked at me, then looked around us.

He crouched down and started searching.

Looking at Mu Chen's expression, I was not very confident. Thinking about Danshen's reaction, I subconsciously took a step back, widened the distance between me and Mu Chen, and asked him in a low voice:

"Taoist, what are you looking for? Did you lose something?"
