The master of metaphysics discovers that he is a villain after time travel

[What, where is the pit? 】The anxious voice of the system came.

"I haven't seen where the pit is, but there is a willow tree planted here, and there is a dead man's pit not far in front. It is definitely haunted."

Ji Yu looked at the willow tree that needed at least three or four adults to hold hands, and suddenly felt something was wrong, "This tree has become a spirit, but it was forcibly pulled out of its body by people or ghosts. gone."

The system looked at the tree in front of him with some doubts and said [I am more inclined to be human, this tree is at least a hundred years old, if the female ghost really has this ability, why does she still have to guide us all the way? 】

"Let's go to see the dead man's pit first."

According to what Jiang Chen said, he walked to the east of the willow tree, and within ten meters or so, Ji Yu saw the death pit that Jiang Chen was talking about. It was a manually dug earth pit that could accommodate seven or eight people.

There was no moon tonight, and there were only a few stars, and the cave was even darker. Ji Yu took out the lighting symbols he had drawn in batches and lit them up, instantly lighting up the surroundings a lot.

There are a lot of human bones in the pit, all of which have been ossified. The pit is not very deep, but the pit is surrounded by soil, and there is not even a place to step on. If you accidentally fall into the pit, it is not easy to climb out.

[You try the spirit-calling technique, I think it must be nothing, everything here is not normal. 】

"Is this a spoiler? What the hell is this novel?"

[After you finish this task, I can reveal the next plot and some information to you.I have a hunch that you are very close to the truth. 】

"Wait, you don't know the original plot of this novel?"

【Eh... It didn't say anything above, just told me your mission, the hero and heroine of the novel, and some unimportant information. 】

Ji Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, abnormally, very abnormally.Since it is a novel world, as an important system to help her complete the task, she doesn't know anything except the names and tasks of the hero and heroine.

This feeling of being watched all the time to complete the task is really uncomfortable, but she can't turn against the system, at least not yet.

After the spirit summoning technique was used up, there was no response, and Ji Yu frowned, "I didn't go to the underworld, and I couldn't force them to come here. Something hindered them from coming, probably that formation."

[Are you sure you can break that formation? 】

"Yes, I didn't find it at first because I didn't think there would be such a hidden formation here. This formation will take effect as soon as we step into the back mountain. Including the cave where we rescued Jiang Chen before, it was also covered by the formation. "

Ji Yu looked at a part of the back mountain not far away that was covered by the formation, and he could faintly detect the formation from the hillside, "I feel very familiar with this formation."

【I also think it's very familiar, but we should go back quickly. The old man is afraid that there will be a big move. If we don't go back quickly, they probably won't be able to deal with it. 】

"I think they should exercise by themselves, otherwise after I finish the task, wouldn't they still have to do it by themselves? I also went down the mountain by myself back then."

[Why go down the mountain by yourself, isn't there a little fox to accompany you down the mountain? 】

Ji Yu was stunned for a moment, and then his tone became cold, "How do you know? Can you see my memory? Or do you know everything?"

[...I can't see your memory, but I just know it, and I can tell you when you complete some more tasks. 】

Ji Yu didn't answer the system's words for a while, and even the master didn't know that she and Yu Ji went down the mountain together, so why did the system know?

"Let's go, let's go and see them first." Whether it is or not, now is not a good time to question the system. Now she doesn't know anything, and the truth is too far away from her.

-

After descending the hill, Ji Yu looked up, in the dark sky, the blazing fire seemed to have burned through half of the sky, and the spreading fire had already forced Xu Qingli and the others to retreat again and again, as well as the ghosts running around.

[It really makes people's eyes dark. 】

"Little fish! Don't come here! This..." Xu Qingli saw Ji Yu walking towards her from a distance and quickly shouted at her.

Before Xu Qingli could finish his sentence, the fire quickly spread to Ji Yu's side.

[Wow, it's so fast, it's almost running on your face, hurry up and hide]

"Fake, your acting skills are also fake."

Ji Yu walked towards Xu Qingli stepping on the fire, and stood in front of them intact in the shock of everyone's faces.

"You, you, you, are you a human or a ghost?" Jiang Chen stammered and asked, pointing at Ji Yu.

"Of course Ji Yu is human, and this fire is fake!" Jiang Liuyun realized instantly, and quickly stretched out his hand to touch the raging fire that was still burning. I can't feel any heat.

Xu Qingli touched it too, "But we didn't notice just now..."

Ji Yu glanced at the ghosts still flying around and replied: "There is a formation in this place, after he brings you here and activates the formation, the fire will burn."

"But you won't feel that this formation can't cause specific harm to people, it will only make you slowly fall into despair, and finally end your life by yourself."

"As long as we find the location of the eye of the formation now, this formation can naturally be broken."

After Ji Yu finished speaking, he looked at them and asked, "How did you get here?"

"Brother Liuyun and I saw them in the fire as soon as we came over. I didn't know what happened." Xu Qingli looked distressed.

At this time, Xu Qingshan, who had been silent at the side, immediately said, "Let me tell!"

"After you went to follow the old man, the few of us thought that we could not act alone, or we would give away the head, so we were going to look for clues in the village together, but as soon as we left the door of the village chief's house, we saw a large group of villagers standing at the door outside."

"That scene was terrifying. They were all staring at us. I tried to talk to them, but they came up and pushed us when they disagreed. The scene was chaotic."

"Then I don't know what happened, one of us suddenly yelled, someone's head fell off, which scared us even more, I slowly took a closer look, it was a human head that fell, it was clearly a piece of paper A head that looks like a sticky lantern is a fake."

"Just when I was about to tell them that it wasn't a human head, someone patted me. I looked back and saw a headless person standing behind me!"

After Xu Qingshan finished speaking, he swallowed hard, and then said: "After that, we scattered and ran around, but for some reason, we all ran to the back mountain, and then suddenly caught fire, We didn't even see the old man's face."
