System [I am in a horror dungeon]

Another person came to the door of the hotel. After drawing his task reward from the box, he sat in the lobby and chatted with people he knew about what to do next.

There was a noise coming from upstairs, and someone asked the waiter in confusion, what happened upstairs?

The waiter just gave them a fake smile and answered: "Maybe someone is arguing."

"I don't know why this is happening." The man who asked the question muttered a few words and sat back in his original seat.

Chu Lingxian hurried to the hotel, but it was too late. He gritted his teeth and used the time-space splitting technique again to enter the vortex. When he came out again, he was standing in front of the hotel.

Then, despite the waiter's attempt to stop him, he rushed upstairs.

Looking at Chu Lingxian who suddenly appeared in front of them, An Yi and Xia Ji both suspected that there was something wrong with their eyes. How could she appear out of thin air?

Seeing how anxious she was, I followed her curiously and went upstairs.

Lu Nanyin upstairs looked at the knife that was getting closer and closer to her. Although she had used all her strength to resist, the knife with a cold glow was still getting closer and closer.

Dashun let go of the manager's ankle, jumped onto a chair nearby, aimed at the manager's hand holding the knife, and rushed over.

The manager was thrown to the ground, and Dashun bit his knife-holding hand tightly. The knife fell to the side. The manager was completely enraged, and he picked up the knife with his other hand and stabbed it into Dashun's body.

Dashun whimpered twice, but still bit the manager's hand tightly and refused to let go.

When the manager was about to pull out the knife and insert it again, Lu Nanyin immediately stepped forward, hugged his arm, pried open his fingers, took the knife away and threw it aside.

Suddenly, a black shadow flashed before his eyes, and a man in a black robe grabbed the manager by the back of his neck and lifted him up.

Lu Nanyin let go of her hand and immediately crawled to Dashun, pressing her hand on the wound on its body to stop the blood from flowing out.

As soon as Chu Lingxian arrived, she saw Lu Nanyin holding Dashun, staring blankly ahead, letting her tears fall.

Dashun's body gradually grew colder. The knife had stabbed into his chest, right into his heart.

Chu Lingxian put his arm around Lu Nanyin's shoulders, and the two of them just looked at Dashun in their arms quietly.

The mayor took the manager away and ended his life with the knife, one cut at a time.

When An Yi caught up, she was shocked by the mess in the room. When she saw Lu Nanyin hugging Dashun, who was no longer breathing, tears instantly welled up in her eyes and she turned her head away, crying silently.

After a long while, Lu Nanyin finally spoke: "If it had followed you, it wouldn't be like this now, right?"

"Perhaps not?"

Lu Nanyin turned to look at her, "Really? Isn't one of your tasks to walk it?"

Chu Lingxian shook her head, "It's impossible that I'm just walking the dog. I might lose track of it while walking."

Lu Nanyin didn't say anything, just lowered her head and looked at Dashun.

"Really?" Lu Nanyin said after a long time. It seemed like she was asking Chu Lingxian, but also seemed like she was asking herself.

The two buried Dashun on a hillside, where there was a wilderness and a tree next to it. Lu Nanyin didn't recognize it, but the tree had flowers of all seasons and could be seen at a glance. If she had the chance in the future and came here again, it would be easy to find it.

The two stayed here until dark, and something was rubbing against Lu Nanyin's hand.

When she looked down, Lu Nanyin met a pair of familiar eyes. It was Xiao Mantou!

"Meow meow." Little Mantou turned around and called a few times towards the place where Dashun was buried, then rubbed Lu Nanyin's arm as if to seek credit.

When they looked up, Dashun was standing in front of them, sticking out his tongue, wagging his tail, and barking at them.

"Dashun?" Lu Nanyin called its name carefully, and Dashun wagged its tail and jumped into the arms of the two.

Lu Nanyin touched Dashun's head and tears fell again.

Chu Lingxian smiled as she watched them meet again. Seeing Ling Yin hiding behind a tree, she nodded slightly.

Ling Yin waved and greeted her, then told her, "You only have one stick of incense time."

Chu Lingxian understood. He stroked Dashun's back and looked at Lu Nanyin holding Dashun tightly. He was thinking about how to tell her. Then he heard Lu Nanyin ask, "It should leave with Xiao Mantou, right?"

Chu Lingxian nodded. Lu Nanyin leaned on her shoulder, hugged Dashun, and continued to ask: "Then... when will it... leave?"

Lu Nanyin asked this question while choking with sobs, and secretly thought, how nice it would be if it could stay with her forever!

But it was impossible to stay, and finally, Dashun followed Xiao Mantou, walked into the darkness, looking back every step, and disappeared.

Lu Nanyin's eyes were red and she couldn't come back to her senses for a long time. She stared blankly in the direction where Dashun disappeared.

Chu Lingxian couldn't help coughing twice, and felt a bloody taste in his throat. The scene in front of him became a little blurry.

Lu Nanyin felt that Chu Lingxian was pressing a little too hard on her arm. When she turned around, she saw that Chu Lingxian was pale and his forehead was covered with sweat.

"Chu Lingxian!"

Lu Nanyin called Chu Lingxian's name, helped her sit under the tree, gave her some water, and asked after she was in a more stable condition: "Did you use that space magic again? If I remember correctly, when you used it in the first copy, you said that you couldn't use it often because it would cause great harm to your body. When you rushed here, were you afraid..."

"Lu Nanyin, when I used it, I knew what would happen next. I don't regret it, I just regret that I didn't do it earlier, so that you would all be safe." Chu Lingxian said as he looked at the place where Dashun was buried next to him.

The two sat under the tree, no one spoke, just watching the scene in front of them.

Chu Lingxian took the pill and meditated under a tree to recover some strength. Then the two of them slowly walked towards the yard.

In the yard, Ping'an's legs had gotten much better, and he could already jog for a while. Hearing the sound of the gate opening, he ran over and circled around the two of them, but didn't see Dashun. So he ran to the door and looked out, then turned around and looked at them, tilting his head, as if he didn't understand why Dashun didn't come back?

Mi Li was not as noisy as usual. She lay quietly on the table, looking at them with her big round eyes.

Ping'an looked outside the door, then looked at the two people, as if he knew something. He walked to his nest with his head down and lay there quietly.

Chu Lingxian pulled Lu Nanyin into the house, asked her to have a good rest, and went out for a while.

Lu Nanyin didn’t know what she had done, but when she came back, there was a faint smell of blood on her body and her face didn’t look very good.

"Where have you been? What happened?"

Chu Lingxian shook his head, forced a smile, reached out and hugged Lu Nanyin, resting his chin on her shoulder, and remained silent for a long time.
