System [I am in a horror dungeon]

Lu Ying: "I see. We are now in the year 191."

Li Yuan: "Then, there was an earthquake in one of those years, but I don't know exactly which year it was."

Lin Yuan: "The current Liu Yuhe is different from the Liu Yuhe of 10. For now, let's treat them as two different people."

Lu Ying: "Okay. Now should we find out what year the earthquake occurred?"

Li Yuan: "That makes sense. Then we can't be in 191, we should go to a later time point."

Lin Yuan: "Let's go to 210 first and find another Liu Yuhe to ask her clearly. I always feel like there is something she hasn't explained clearly."

Lu Ying: “OK!”

Li Yuan: "Okay."

The three of them were sending messages on the bracelets while talking to Liu Yuhe. She felt very anxious now and really wanted to leave here.

"Well, let's send someone out to check out the situation. It would be great if we can find a new way out. Even if we can't, we can bring back some food and drinks, okay?"

After Li Jinjia finished speaking, he looked at Chu Lingxian, and his meaning was very clear.

Chu Lingxian looked at her and said, "I'll go out and take a look. You guys stay here and be careful."

Liu Yuhe wanted to say something, but Chu Lingxian had already stood up and walked out.

Lu Nanyin thought of something and chased after him. The two talked for a while and confirmed some things.

"It's afternoon now. Can you come back in the evening?"

Chu Lingxian looked at the sun in the sky and said, "I'm not sure. Let's wait until then. I'm actually very curious about what the blood moon came from."

Lu Nanyin looked at her without saying anything. After she walked away, she came back and sat down.

When Chu Lingxian walked out, he took the invisibility talisman and swaggered past the villagers, listening to their conversation and getting some information.

"That girl wouldn't have run away, right?"

"Don't talk nonsense. There are so many mountains here. It would be strange if she could escape alone."

"Then why did this person disappear? We have been looking for him for several days, but still can't find him."

"And the few people who were temporarily living in the warehouse are also gone. It's as if they disappeared. This is too weird."

"Who knows where they come from? The village chief has also said not to mess with them. What can a few women do? Really."

……

Chu Lingxian listened to these words, smiled, then turned and went to the village. He didn't expect that this place was so dilapidated.

Every household was like this, except for the village chief's house which was relatively presentable. The others were stone houses that leaked wind and rain. There was a rotten smell all around, which made Chu Lingxian very uncomfortable.

What is this rotten smell? It is not as stinky as a rotting corpse, nor is it the smell of rotting flowers and plants, nor is it the smell of livestock and poultry feces. This smell is basically present in every household, but some households have a very light smell, while others have a very strong smell. What is going on?

Chu Lingxian came to the house with the strongest smell, which was the village chief's house. He climbed up the wall and watched the village chief's wife and daughter-in-law running around busily with numb eyes, working like robots without a single complaint or word of criticism.

Under the wall next to them was their little grandson playing. He was about three or four years old and was playingful. He was holding a small shovel and digging out an unknown weed in the corner of the wall.

After a while, the village chief and her son came back, sat down and started eating and drinking, making the house they had cleaned up a mess again. They didn't say anything, just did their work quietly.

But even after they did this, the father and son were still restless. They would seize the slightest mistake and start preaching. In the end, they became so angry that they started fighting. When Chu Lingxian wanted to stop them, something stopped her, and a sentence appeared in front of her: The past cannot be changed!

The father and son took out their anger on them, but they didn't say a word. They didn't make a sound when they were beaten. Their eyes were empty and numb, as if they had experienced this thousands of times and no longer had hope for anything.

Chu Lingxian jumped down from the wall and went to other houses, but the scene was the same.

As for the family with the weakest smell, it was the house of the person lying on the stretcher. The woman was taking care of her son, but her eyes were exceptionally bright, unlike the others, which were empty and lifeless.

She observed her husband's reaction, spoke carefully, and then fed medicine to her son. She was complaining about Liu Yuhe running away and that her son's medicine was too expensive and she needed to think of a solution.

Her husband smoked one cigarette after another, silent and with a sad look on his face.

Chu Lingxian thought about it and seemed to know what that rotten smell was. Where were the girls who were captured two days ago?

She came to the shop at the entrance of the village again. Last time, she thought there was someone there, so she didn't pay much attention to the surroundings. This time, she wanted to see what kind of place this was.

When Chu Lingxian looked around, he found the back door of the store. He pried open the lock and went in. Inside was a place to store vegetables and a cellar.

Chu Lingxian looked at the cellar. It was likely that those girls were locked up here.

Just when she was about to open the cellar, the words appeared in front of her again: The past cannot be changed!

Okay, that's great. She can't do anything now and can only watch everything happen.

Chu Lingxian took a look around and left. He felt so depressed as he couldn't do anything.

Chu Lingxian wandered around the village, watching the sun set, wondering whether to go back now, or...

Chu Lingxian came to the house with the lightest smell. Their house was relatively peaceful, but only compared to other houses.

When her husband went to rest, she looked at the family coldly, cutting vegetables with a sullen expression on her face. In her eyes, the vegetables in her hands seemed to be the father and son, and she was going to cut them into pieces.

The smell in this yard is gone. It was the smell of hope rotting in the ground, rotting and stinking. Others lost hope of escape in their day-to-day lives, but she didn't. She helped those captured girls escape and let them run away from here, but unfortunately, all those people were caught back.

But she didn't want to compromise, she wanted to go home, she wanted to see her family again.

It’s been twenty years. I wonder what her parents have become of now, or whether they are no longer around.

Thinking of this, he slowed down his movements a little, tears welled up in his eyes but he was stubborn and refused to let them fall.

Chu Lingxian read her inner thoughts in silence and smiled helplessly. He didn't know whether she had escaped from here when the earthquake came, or whether she had seen her parents and her family.
