I studied beheading in a mental institution

"Someone?"

Hearing this sentence, Cao Yuan and An Qingyu frowned at the same time, ready to fight, Baili Fatty turned pale, and said tremblingly:

"Is it... living or... dead?"

"Looking at us from behind the window, of course they are alive!" Cao Yuan couldn't help but say.

"No." Lin Qiye stared at the dark window, slowly clenched the handle of the straight knife with the other hand, took a deep breath, and said hoarsely:

"That's not a living person...you have to be mentally prepared."

Not a living person?

An Qingyu turned her head to look at the window, a touch of gray appeared in her eyes, and after a while, she froze in place.

"how can that be……"

Cao Yuan's pupils contracted slightly, and subconsciously moved the beam of the flashlight to the window, trying to see what it was...

The bright beam of light streaked across the dilapidated gray wall and shone into the dark cave. Behind the tattered brown-red wooden frame, a pale human face was pressed against the wall. A pair of dark eyes with no whites were straight. He stared at the four people downstairs!

This face is really strange, not three-dimensional like a normal human face, but has a strange three-dimensional sense, slender slanted eyebrows, dark eyes, bright red lips... There is no nose on that face, only Two dark holes.

The moment Cao Yuan saw this face, he suddenly felt a chill rushing from the soles of his feet to his brain, and the hairs on his whole body stood on end.

Where is this person!

This is clearly a paper doll for burial!

The moment Baili Pangpang on the side saw this scene, his heart twitched violently. The strong psychological quality trained in the training camp prevented him from screaming directly, but bit his lips firmly, and turned back without saying a word. He took out a string of Buddhist beads from his pocket and stuffed it into Cao Yuan's hand.

"What are you doing?" Cao Yuan was taken aback by him.

"Aren't you a monk! Here is the Buddhist bead, quickly chant the mantra and take it away!!" Baili Pangpang said anxiously in a low voice with his face pale.

Cao Yuan: ...

After being irradiated by the flashlight beam, the pale paper face suddenly flickered and disappeared behind the dark window. Lin Qiye's pupils shrank suddenly, and he rushed into the building with a knife in his hand, shouting:

"Grab it! Don't let it get away!"

However, there is one person who is faster than him.

An Qingyu rushed out long before Lin Qiye, her eyes under the glasses were fixed on the window where the paper figurine disappeared, and she held a dissecting scalpel with her backhand, and rushed straight up against the wall. Going upstairs, my face is full of excitement and curiosity!

Seeing Lin Qiye rushing out, Cao Yuan followed closely behind, only Baili Pangpang was left standing still holding a string of Buddhist beads, and after a while, he also ran wildly.

"Don't leave me!!"

In the low building where you can't see your fingers, Lin Qiye was extremely fast. In less than two seconds, he ran from downstairs to the room where the paper figurine was originally. At the same time, An Qingyu turned in from the window.

But at this moment, there was no trace of the paper figurine in the room.

"It flipped out from there and ran into the woods." Every move of the paper figurine was in Lin Qiye's perception, and he immediately flipped out from another window opposite.

After stepping into the "Sichuan" realm, the perception range of [Mortal God Realm] soared to 500 meters. Although the speed of the paper figurine was fast, it couldn't escape Lin Qiye's perception in a short time.

The four left the abandoned forest farm and ran towards the forest on the other side at full speed!

A paper figurine suddenly appeared in the abandoned forest farm in the deep mountains and old forests. This incident itself was extremely strange. Naturally, it was impossible for Lin Qiye and others to just let it go away.

The paper man's body seemed to have no weight at all, following the cold wind of the night, it flew very far in the forest with a light leap, and then fell into a deep forest somewhere.

Lin Qiye and others charged into the forest and chased after it for a long time, but they were still unable to close the distance with the paper figurine. Instead, they were thrown farther and farther away, gradually losing track of the other party.

Lin Qiye frowned slightly, and stopped in the forest.

After about half a minute, the three figures of Cao Yuan followed behind Lin Qiye. After looking around, they did not see the paper figurine, and sighed helplessly.

In fact, it is not impossible for Lin Qiye to catch up. In the darkness of night, his speed itself has been buffed to a terrifying level. If he is blessed with [Poetry Singer in the Sky], the probability of catching up with the paper figurine is very high. Small, but the problem is that Cao Yuan and others don't have so many means, and their speed is simply not enough to keep up with Lin Qiye.

Don't say if you can catch up with the paper figurine, but he will definitely lose touch with the team. When the four of them are scattered in this vast virgin forest, it will be really troublesome.

Baili Pangpang panted heavily, and couldn't help asking: "Qiye, what is that?"

"There are no life fluctuations, no mental power reactions, and no traces of being manipulated by the Forbidden Ruins..." Lin Qiye pondered for a moment, then shook his head, "It doesn't sound like a 'mystery', but I have no idea what it is."

An Qingyu sighed regretfully, "If only I could dissect it."

Cao Yuan on the side seemed to have thought of something, and said with some uncertainty: "Don't you think that the scene just now... seems to have been heard somewhere?"

Hearing this sentence, the other three were taken aback.

"Pale face, blurred facial features, like a human, but also... dead." An Qingyu muttered to himself, "I see, this comparison is very similar to the legend I heard before."

"The legend, can't it be true?" Baili Pangpang couldn't help but said, "What the lumberjack saw was actually the paper man we just saw?"

"The location is indeed a forest farm..." Lin Qiye frowned slightly, "The location, the incident, all match up, it seems a bit too coincidental."

"Since the paper figurine is true, will the rest of the legend be true?" Cao Yuan asked.

"What part?"

"The eternal kingdom of the dead that exists deep in the forest."

Everyone fell silent at the same time.

In the depths of the primeval forest, is there really an eternal kingdom of the dead?It sounds like a fairy tale, but they have just confirmed that part of the legend is indeed true...

The mysterious red giant ants, the queen's nest whose location is unclear, the pale paper man who appeared inexplicably and then disappeared in the forest strangely, the legendary eternal kingdom of the dead that exists deep in the forest...

Lin Qiye looked up at the dense black forest around him, and the outline of mountains hidden in the night in the distance, and heaved a long sigh.

"It seems that there are far more secrets in this place than we imagined."
