Strange Story of Strange House

The ordinary time after the ordeal is always warm and fleeting. Before anyone can recover, the leisurely summer life is over.

In early September, Lin Chi returned to school.

After the death robbery incident, life returned to its original rhythm. Lin Chi went back and forth between Yunlou, the noodle shop and the school every day, at three o'clock and one line.

The days are calm, but there is a different kind of taste.

During this period, their relationship developed by leaps and bounds, Rainbow Dash also began to grow up, and the previous name finally came in handy.Before Lin Chi returned to school, Tonglou chose a kindergarten with a good reputation and not far from home, and sent Yun Bao there.

Little Lou Yun officially started his painful and happy study life.

At the same time, Lin Chi learned a piece of news that surprised him——Lan Qi, Fang Qing, and Qin Shuo, who had experienced the sixth puzzle together, even remembered what happened when they left their souls. The common experience made several people quickly become friends.

Recalling the thrilling experience not long ago, and comparing it to the present, waking up in Lou Qi’s arms every day, chatting with two or three friends at school, picking up Yun Bao home in the evening, enjoying the life of a child around his knees, calm and simple, For Lin Chi, it couldn't be better.

However, life will not always be as calm as a pool of stagnant water.

In mid-September, the vision suddenly appeared. A large number of undead souls in K City suddenly became restless, and the sky that was originally sunny in autumn was also covered with a layer of darkness.This kind of gloomy weather lasted for nearly a week, and the sky was so dark that it made people panic...

Until this day, the sun finally broke through the siege and dispelled the untimely gloom for a whole week, but it didn't make people feel at ease. On the contrary, it was like the eve of a storm, and there was a sense of desolation that the mountains and rains were about to come and the wind filled the building.

Before Lin Chi left the house, Lou Qi specifically told him: "The weather seems to be even weirder than before, and the little devils nearby probably won't be too sloppy. Come back as soon as possible after class, and don't stay outside too late."

"Okay." Lin Chi responded one by one, stood on tiptoe and gnawed Lou Qi's face, and went out with his textbooks.

Lin Chi vaguely knew that the current situation in K City seemed not very optimistic, but he did not expect that it would be so bad.Before get out of class was over, he received a text message from Lou Qi: "Hurry back to Yunlou."

Not after school, not after class, not even an explanation of the reason for the request for a quick return.

Lou Qi never disturbed Lin Chi when he was in class. For the harassing messages Lin Chi sent to Lou Qi during class, Lou Qi would definitely wait until he was out of class before replying, so cute.Such a Lou Qi, looking for him in such a hurry, something must have happened!

Lin Chi's heart sank, and he looked up at the teacher who was eloquent on the podium, feeling a little embarrassed for a while.After entering the sophomore year, the number of professional courses began to increase, and the class work was far from as easy as the freshman year. Now this course is compulsory for the major, and the teachers are notoriously strict.He is not allowed to ask for leave at will during class, the back door is closed, and sneaking is not practical.

Lou Qi's unusual behavior was like a needle piercing Lin Chi's heart, making him restless.Even if he stands up and interrupts the teacher's lecture now, he is not sure that he can find a suitable reason to persuade the teacher to let him leave.

Lin Chi has never been able to hide things, everything in his mind is clearly written on his face, almost without capital letters.Ever since, Ye Bai turned his head inadvertently, and saw Lin Chi looking anxiously at the podium, wanting to stand or not, but hesitating to speak.

She thought about it, leaned over and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

"Something happened to my family, I'm in a hurry to go back, but..." Lin Chi glanced at the teacher, and Ye Bai knew everything. After all, the teacher was famous in the department for his strictness and ruthlessness.

"Wait for me!" Ye Bai whispered, then turned his head and whispered to Lan Qi who was sitting beside her for a while, then turned to wink at Lin Chi.

Just when the second monk Lin Chizhang couldn't figure it out, he saw Lan Qi pushing down the chair and slipping softly to the ground, Ye Bai quickly hugged her and shouted at the teacher who was in class: "Teacher! Someone passed out!"

The teacher was also taken aback by this sudden situation, and hurried over to check it out. Fortunately, Lan Qi's acting skills were excellent and she successfully fooled him.Someone fainted, and the old professor couldn't follow his old rules anymore, so he let go, and asked Ye Bai to take Lan Qi to the hospital quickly, seeing that she was a girl, and specially prepared to find a boy to go with her .Ye Bai's eyes were sharp and his hands were quick: "Lin Chi, help me support her, I can't help her anymore!"

At this moment, Lin Chi also came to his senses, and quickly supported Lan Qi: "Teacher, I'll take them to the hospital."

Seeing this posture, the old professor was also a little flustered, and he nodded without saying a word to Lin Chi's proposal.Just like that, Lin Chi successfully left the classroom with Lan Qi on his back and Ye Bai carrying their bags.

Lin Chi put the lively Lan Qi down where the teacher couldn't see it, and Ye Bai stuffed his bag into his hands, urging him to go back and have a look.

"Thank you, if it weren't for you, I really don't know what to do..." Lin Chi sincerely thanked the two girls.

"It's a small matter." The two waved their hands and didn't care.

"Thank you."

"Oh, don't be so polite, go back quickly." Ye Bai held Lan Qi's arm and said with a smile, "You are so polite, I feel embarrassed."

Lin Chi scratched his head, and was about to speak, but heard Ye Bai say again: "Speaking of which, I always wanted to repay you, but I couldn't remember what you helped me, probably because we had a destiny in the previous life, and you helped me." I'm doing a big favor, let me remember it for the rest of my life."

After finishing speaking, the two girls smiled at each other, waved to Lin Chi, and skipped class to go shopping.

After watching the two leave, Lin Chi hurried back to Yunlou.But before he stepped into Yunlou, he felt something was wrong.You Yunjing sits in Yunlou, although the Yin Qi is heavy, the breath has always been very peaceful.But today, the atmosphere around him was chaotic, and he felt palpitations as soon as he got close to Lin Chi.

Immediately, his mood became heavier. Lin Chi took three steps in parallel and pushed the door open. A group of people gathered in the hall on the first floor. Lin Chi took a closer look, not only Yun Jing, Huai Yin, Shen Jing Han Louqi, but even The dolls who always like to hide in the showroom have all come out.

"What happened?" Seeing the serious faces of the people, Lin Chi was startled. What kind of situation could make these people look down at the same time.

Hearing his question, Lou Qi pointed to the door to the lower seven floors, frowned and said, "Hundred ghosts have left at night, and outside that door, there are all evil spirits."

"What?!" Hundred Ghosts Walking at Night?Isn't this something that only appears in novels and film and television works?

Lou Qi naturally saw Lin Chi's doubts, but now is not a good time to explain, he paused, and continued: "In K City, Yunlou is the closest and largest exit from the underworld to the underworld. There are a huge number of ghost night walkers, and this is their only choice if they want to enter the human world. Now they have launched several attacks one after another, and the red sleeves are leading people to resist below, but the situation is not optimistic."

"How could such a thing happen..." Compared with Baigui Yexing, all the ghosts Lin Chi encountered before can be attributed to small troubles.Fortunately, the three parents and Lou Qi were all by his side. Although Lin Chi was anxious, he didn't panic, "If they really beat me up, what will happen?"

"As far as I know..." Lou Qi replied softly, "City K can't afford the casualties, ranging from hundreds of casualties, to the severe loss of life."

"Xiao Chi, I called you back because you have a special physique, and we are also afraid that if there is a mess, we will not take care of you." Huaiyin said in a deep voice. With a hand on his shoulder, he gave Lin Chi a comforting smile, "We're relieved when you're back."

"Don't worry Daddy, I'll take care of myself!"

After Lin Chi settled down, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief, and turned to discuss ways to tide over this difficulty.

"Just in case, I will set up an enchantment in Yunlou. If the lower seven floors are really breached, the enchantment can buy us some time." Shen Jinghan clicked on the architectural design drawing of Yunlou on the table , Said in a deep voice, "But it's still a bit difficult for me alone to hold up a barrier that can block the strength of the ghosts' night walk. Lou Qi, please help me."

"Okay." Although the two have always been at odds, but now the important thing is, the two of them have left the small frictions in the weekdays behind. As the saying goes, the person who understands you best is your enemy. It is applicable, and they are used to tit-for-tat confrontation, but when they cooperate, they actually have some kind of tacit understanding.

"I'll go downstairs." Yun Jing patted the hem of her long skirt and stood up, "The red sleeves alone can't stop those vicious things, and since I'm the ghost king of K city, it's time for me to come forward. "

"Aunt Yun!" Lin Chi was shocked when he heard the words. He knew that Yun Jing had always been strong, but since the current situation made several people so anxious, it was definitely not something that Yun Jing could handle alone.

Yun Jing looked at Lin Chi with indifferent eyes: "This is my duty, I can't just sit idly by." The cheongsam embroidered with black poppies wrapped her graceful figure, as charming as ever, but at that moment, Lin Chi could only I think she is stalwart.

"I'll go too. Hongxiu is often delirious. In case there is something that I can't take care of you, I can help." Huaiyin also stood up and walked to Yun Jing's side.Contrary to Lin Chi's expectations, Shen Jinghan did not object to Huaiyin's decision, but just leaned over and hugged Huaiyin, telling him to be careful in everything.

On the contrary, it was Yun Jing who looked at Huaiyin with a complicated expression: "Huaiyin..."

"I'm not that weak, am I so worried?" Huaiyin smiled, seeing Yun Jing's serious face, and even joked with her, "Besides, we've been together for so long. It's family, you know I can't let you face it alone."

"Yeah." Yun Jing was silent for a moment, and finally pulled out a helpless smile, "I won't say thank you."

Huai Yin smiled back.

"Actually..." Lou Qi hesitated, "The safest way is to inform Dideng about this matter. But the last time Dideng sneaked out, it annoyed Tianming, and was imprisoned for a hundred years. That's why the Hundred Ghosts went on a rampage at night, presumably she hasn't gotten any news yet."

"Is there no way to contact her?"

Lou Qi shook his head: "Currently, Destiny has closed all channels for the Earth Lamp to communicate with the human world...the only way is to go to Netherworld and tell her the news..." Destiny has never interfered in the affairs of the Human World, At this juncture, he was locked up again.

Shen Jinghan thought for a while: "I informed Puxi to come over as soon as possible. When he arrives, you immediately set off to find the lamp."

"...It's better, it's more secure." Lou Qi also agreed with this proposal, so Shen Jinghan made a decision and finalized the response plan.However, at this moment, Lin Chi raised an objection.

"I don't have anything? Why don't you let me find the lamp! Lou Qi took me there, I should be able to find it."

Lou Qi was the first to disagree: "Xiao Chi, the Yin road now is completely different from the previous one. There are hundreds of runaway ghosts everywhere, it's too dangerous!"

Huaiyin also echoed repeatedly: "Yes, it's too dangerous, and I don't trust you to go."

"I also want to do something for everyone. I know how heavy I am. I can't go down to fight with Aunt Yun and Huaiyin, and I can't accompany Dad to support the barrier, but I can always find someone. Come on!" Lin Chi looked at everyone with a firm face, "I have to learn to grow up and face things alone."

After Lin Chi finished speaking, the parents were a little dazed. In the end, it was Lou Qi who came to his senses first. He held Lin Chi's hand and said in a low voice, "You are already strong enough."

"I will also have heroic feelings, and I want to fight side by side with you." Lin Chi smiled, and clasped Lou Qi's hand tightly behind his back.

"...Okay." Lou Qi finally let go, he took off the pendant he was wearing and put it on Lin Chi, "This amulet, you put it on."

Lin Chi nodded, and Lou Qi handed him another candle: "This is a candle for guiding the way. After being lit, it can guide you to the ground lamp."

"Okay." Lin Chi put away the candle, and Lou Qi told him again: "Be careful not to let the candle go out."

"Ah."

Shen Jinghan opened the entrance of the Yin Road, pressed Lin Chi's shoulder when he passed by, and said: "Be careful, it doesn't matter if you can't find it, the most important thing is to protect yourself. For us, you are more important than you." Everything counts. I'll get someone to help you as soon as possible, don't be afraid."

"Ok!"

Huaiyin and Yun Jing also came over, stuffed Lin Chi with a bunch of self-defense items, and then gave them another order.With everything ready, Lin Chi took the worries of his family and the burden of K City's survival, and embarked on the road to find the lamp.

…………

The Yin Road has always been chilly, and it is by no means a good place to yearn for, but it has never been like it is now... with malicious intentions.As soon as Lin Chi stepped onto the dark road, he clearly noticed several prying eyes, watching his every move.

Lin Chi collected himself, lit the candle, and walked slowly in the direction the candle was pointing.He didn't dare to turn his head, Lou Qi was standing at the entrance of the Yin Road watching him leave... He was afraid that if he turned his head, he would lose the courage to go out alone.

But in the end, he still couldn't help it, and secretly glanced back.At the entrance of the Yin Road, there were many people standing there in darkness.Lou Qi stood at the front, because Lin Chi couldn't see his expression clearly because of the distance, but just standing there made his heart full.Followed by Huaiyin and Shen Jinghan, Lin Chi knew very well that although they did not prevent him from taking the responsibility, they were definitely not at ease.Just like a baby bird leaving the nest, parents encourage it to spread its wings and fly high, but they also worry about it for a lifetime.

Yun Jing stood relatively back, surrounded by all kinds of dolls, tall and short, new and old.They hide in every corner of the showroom on weekdays, and they can be identified from their clothes. Some of them are very familiar to Lin Chi, and some he has never even seen.

They died because of the so-called "honor" and "merit" of the city, and the big men used a fire to destroy their lives and their lives.But when disaster strikes, they still have to stand up and choose to persevere without hesitation.

Aunt Yun said that since she is the Ghost King of K City, she cannot just sit idly by and ignore this matter.

If Aunt Yun, who was let down by this city, is like this, then he, who was born and raised by this city, has to work even harder!

Counting it, Lin Chi had taken a lot of dark roads, not to mention the few times Tonglou Qi did, even Shen Jinghan took him there many times.When his lover and parents are around, he naturally doesn't need to worry about anything, no matter how bad it is, there are still a few friends by his side.Only this time, he will go alone.

Ignoring the chaotic atmosphere around you, the feeling of walking in the shadows is actually similar to walking at night.It was pitch black and there was no light source. Once your eyes got used to the dark environment, you could see "passers-by" walking past you in a hurry.

Due to the riot of a hundred ghosts, the dark alley was a little more noisy, and the bored little ghost squatting on the side of the road, seeing Lin Chi alone, also became interested in teasing him.

Lin Chi avoids the little ghosts who are eager to try, and carefully protects the candle in his hand. The burning candle wick reflects the flickering light on the ground. It seems extremely fragile, but it firmly illuminates the direction of Lin Chi's progress. .According to Lou Qi's instructions, walk along the direction pointed by the light, and you will be able to walk to the mysterious castle where Di Deng lives.

Afraid of the amulet on Lin Chi's body, the little ghosts followed Lin Chi from a distance, but they dared not get close.But not daring to get close doesn't mean they can't play tricks on Lin Chi and trip him up a bit.Therefore, along the way, Lin Chi not only had to protect the candle in his hand to prevent it from going out, but also dealt with and guarded against those pranksters, which was hard work.

It's a pity that everything must be guarded against, and it is difficult to guard against a stab in the back.No matter how carefully Lin Chi guarded the candle, there was still something he couldn't do.At the corner of a narrow intersection, a little ghost suddenly jumped out and startled Lin Chi. In his panic, the little ghost blew out the candle in Lin Chi's hand.

"Ah! Oops!"

The kid who succeeded grinned and gave his companion a high-five, and gloated at the frustrated Lin Chi.Lin Chi hurriedly took out the lighter in his pocket, but maybe it was because the material of the candle was special, or maybe it was because he was in a dark alley at the moment, Lin Chi tried several times, but couldn't light the candle.

Looking at the extinguished candle in his hand, Lin Chi lost his mind for a moment. Without a candle to guide him, he suddenly fell into trouble, because he couldn't reach the old castle of the ground lamp without a candle to guide him.

But compared to getting lost, after the candles were extinguished, a more serious situation suddenly appeared in front of Lin Chi.Earlier, he attributed the fact that the ghosts didn't dare to get too close to him because he was carrying Lou Qi's amulet, so he didn't know that the burning candles actually had the effect of blocking ghosts.As soon as the candles were extinguished, the little ghosts became even more rampant. They called their friends and gathered in groups towards Lin Chi, and soon surrounded him.

Fortunately, the amulet is still effective. Although the little ghosts trapped Lin Chi in the encirclement, they couldn't touch Lin Chi after all.But soon, Lin Chi realized that he was relieved too early.

Although the little ghosts couldn't touch him, they were as smart as they were, and quickly thought of a way to use external force, picked up many small stones, and attacked Lin Chi from a distance.The pain from the small stones hitting his body was obvious, not to mention the large number of small stones. Lin Chi raised his hand to protect his head while thinking about the solution.

Lin Chi knew that he didn't have much time to delay here, and if he delayed for a minute, Yunlou would be more dangerous.Although he knew very well that Lou Qi and the others probably didn't pin their hopes on him, but what if?Who knows what will happen next second?Of the group of people fighting in Yunlou, no matter who is injured, it is not the result he wants. Even if he is not relied on and expected, he still wants to do his best to protect the people he cares about.Therefore, he must break through quickly!

Lin Chi forced himself to calm down and carefully observe the surrounding encirclement. These little ghosts were in their own battalion. Although there were a large number of them, they were not united.They all want to share the benefits from Lin Chi, how can they really be united?Therefore, although their encirclement seems densely packed and very strong at first glance, in fact, there are large gaps between the several groups.

According to this rule, Lin Chi quickly found the weakest part of the encirclement, and was about to forcefully break out from there, but as soon as he approached that direction, the little ghosts immediately sensed his intention, and the gap was instantly filled.

Lin Chi gritted his teeth, desperately tore off the amulet from his neck, and threw it towards another weak point. Sure enough, the little devils immediately scattered. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lin Chi accelerated his speed and strode forward. Breaking out of the encirclement, but losing the amulet, he soon becomes the target of more ghosts.

In fact, the safest way is to wait for a better opportunity to break through, rather than rushing to open the way with amulets. Lin Chi doesn't know this, but he knows better that he can't afford to delay.

When he suggested that he go alone to search for lamps in the Yin Alley, although Lou Qi objected, he quickly let go, and the two fathers did not raise any more objections.When Lou Qi sent him downstairs, he only gave him an amulet, not any other self-defense items.In other words, according to their estimation, although some small troubles may occur on the Yin Road, they will not be in great danger.

But the status quo is that the amulet given by Lou Qi can no longer even protect Lin Chi from reaching Dideng Castle safely.Lin Chi's heart sank, the situation was obviously more severe than previously estimated.

After all, it was an escape skill developed after being chased by ghosts for several years. Although he did not have the amulet, the time bought for Lin Chi when he threw the amulet was enough for him to get rid of the group of heavy-footed ghosts behind him.With a group of green-faced and fang-toothed ghosts behind him, and no candles to guide the direction, Lin Chi didn't know if there was a worse situation than this, but the situation was urgent, and he didn't even have time to think about the route. After finding a direction, he ran all the way.

As he galloped around a corner, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Lin Chi, grabbing Lin Chi's shoulders, and Lin Chi was staggered by the sudden external force. Fortunately, the person who came was so powerful that he could completely crush Lin Chi with one hand. Standing up, this saved him from the tragedy of falling down.

But after all, he had just experienced the incident where the candle was blown out. Lin Chi didn't like this kind of person who quietly appeared around the corner. He subconsciously punched that person hard, wanting to get rid of the imprisonment as soon as possible. .It's a pity that the visitor seemed to have made a move, and easily took off the force of Lin Chi's punch.

Lin Chi was taken aback, and suddenly looked up, only to realize that the person blocking him was Zhuang Yao.

"Mr. Zhuang?! Why are you here?" Lin Chi withdrew his hand embarrassingly, looking at Zhuang Yao who shouldn't be here in surprise.

"Mr. Shen asked me to come." Zhuang Yao helped Lin Chi stand still, and then took a step back, leaving a distance that was not too far, not too close, so that he could protect Lin Chi without being too close. Lin Chi felt awkward.

"My dad?" Lin Chi blinked, remembering in a daze that Shen Jinghan had indeed said that he would send someone to support him when his subordinates arrived, so he nodded clearly, "Please take this trip."

Zhuang Yao smiled when he heard the words, and looked towards Lin Chilai's direction, where there was a mass of ghosts dotted with darkness, like rolling thunderclouds, slowly but firmly coming towards them.

Zhuang Yao paused with a smile, pulled Lin Chi forward, and said as he walked, "There's no trouble, Mr.'s men have already settled in Yunlou, but the Hundred Ghosts came faster than we expected, and the maniac level is also higher than expected." Contrary to our imagination, the situation is very serious. Mr. originally planned to let Lou Qi come to meet you, but unfortunately, the ghosts came so fast that we were caught off guard. Lou Qi couldn't get away. I thought I owe you a favor, so I recommended myself .”

"The situation is already so bad?" Lin Chi was suffocated. Although he had already made psychological achievements, when he really confirmed Yunlou's situation from Zhuang Yao's mouth, he was still shocked.

"It's still under control," Zhuang Yao withdrew his trademark elegant smile and looked serious, "...but the situation is not optimistic."

"Since this is the case, we must hurry up and find the ground lamp as soon as possible so that we can finish this matter... It's just that I accidentally extinguished the candle that Lou Qi gave me to guide me. Do you know how to go next? We Have you deviated from the direction?" Lin Chi was concerned about Yunlou, and his actions were a little eager, Zhuang Yao's unhurriedness at this moment seemed a little strange to him.

Lin Chi couldn't help but stop: "Mr. Zhuang, what's wrong?"

Behind them, the original few little ghosts finally gathered into a mighty group of hundreds of ghosts, constantly rushing towards them.Zhuang Yao smiled wryly: "I'm afraid, you have to go alone first."

"Won't you stay with me?"

"When I met you, there were only a few ghosts behind you, but in a short while, the size has doubled several times. We can't let them gather like this, otherwise they will develop to the point where I can't solve them sooner or later..." Zhuang Yao said , patted Lin Chi on the shoulder, "Let's nip this trouble in the bud as soon as possible while I still have the energy left."

"But there are so many ghosts! You only have one person! Let's move faster and get to the floor lamp earlier, so there will be no such things..." Lin Chi shook his head, unwilling to leave Zhuang Yao alone.

"There are too many uncertainties. Besides, I can handle it. A few brats, no matter what I say, they are the direct descendants of your father." Zhuang Yao led Lin Chi and walked in one direction After a few steps, "Let's go, we don't have much time to delay."

In front of him is an unknown future, behind him is an approaching evil spirit, but his only partner wants to part with him at this moment, Lin Chi admits that he is hesitant to move forward, not only worried about Zhuang Yao's safety, but also confused about the unknown future , he overestimated himself, facing the current situation, he was indeed a little scared.

But things have come to this, he can only grit his teeth and insist, Zhuang Yao stood behind him and patted him on the shoulder: "Let's go, don't worry, although there are many brats in this group, they don't have any powerful characters, and they will be resolved soon." , I will catch up with you as soon as possible after I finish solving it."

Zhuang Yao's words calmed Lin Chi's uneasy mood a little, but he still had one last thing - "But, the candle is out, how can I find the floor lamp?"

"Go straight ahead, there must be a way for the car to reach the mountain..." Zhuang Yao paused, "Besides, there is another karma waiting for you."

"what?"

"Go ahead, you'll find out soon enough."

Lin Chi finally made up his mind and ran forward. After running for a while, he stopped suddenly, turned around and said loudly to Zhuang Yao, "Mr. Zhuang, thank you."

Zhuang Yao smiled and waved his hands: "Where can I deserve this thank you, that's what I should do." After finishing speaking, he turned around and concentrated on dealing with the evil spirits that were approaching in front of him.Lin Chi took a few glances, gritted his teeth, turned around and continued running forward.

Without the candlelight to guide the way, Lin Chi followed what Zhuang Yao said, and ran straight forward. Fortunately, fate was not desperate, and did not force him to a dead end. After separating from Zhuang Yao, the road ahead was straight and there was no fork , Lin Chi ran several miles in one breath.

The straight road stretched westward for an unknown number of miles. With the heavy responsibility in his heart, Lin Chi didn't seem to get tired, and ran all the way until the road conditions turned sharply downwards, and various small roads and fork roads appeared one after another... ...Lin Chi once again realized the necessity of candles. A fork in the road ahead, two almost identical forks appeared in front of him, challenging his decision-making power.

"Take the one on the right." Just as Lin Chi was hesitating, a faint voice suddenly sounded, showing him the way.Lin Chi looked up, and Xi Nan was standing on the right side of the fork and smiling at him: "Long time no see."

"Xi Nan?! Why are you here too!"

"Come to repay the favor, let's go to the right." Xi Nan lowered her head slightly, showing a slightly shy smile, "Last time you did me and Xiaobei a big favor, and I haven't found a chance to thank you."

"I didn't expect you to come..."

"I heard that you needed someone to lead the way, so I volunteered to come here, but I was a step too late. That Mr. Zhuang found you first. I am not as powerful as him, and I don't seem too reliable... But this way, I Don't worry, I will be able to take you there safely." Xi Nan looked at Lin Chi with seriousness in his eyes.

"...Okay." Lin Chi didn't know what to say for a while, but his heart was full and warm... He had inadvertently planted a kindling in the hearts of others, but he never thought that the ignited fire would one day be destroyed. brighten yourself.

He nodded heavily, followed Xi Nan to the fork on the right without hesitation.

At the beginning, when he helped, it was mostly a little bit of effort, and he never thought of asking for the slightest benefit from these dead people. At this time, the kindness in return was so appropriate and beneficial, Lin Chi couldn't explain his mood at the moment, but felt that The whole body is full of energy.

Xi Nan was not good at words, and guided Lin Chi silently along the way to bypass traps and obstacles, big or small, and move forward smoothly.Xi Nan had a dark blue lamp in his hand. The light was weak, but it firmly illuminated the road in front of him. It was Xi Nan's soul lamp. On this road, he used this lamp to drive away the road ahead for Lin Chi. road haze.

The dim blue lights flicker, which seems eerie, but reassuring.The two walked in silence for a long time, and finally Lin Chi couldn't stand it anymore and broke the silence with a sound.

"I haven't had time to say thank you to you, thank you for sending me this journey."

Hearing this, Xi Nan turned his head and glanced at Lin Chi. With this movement, the dark blue soul lamp illuminated the broken hair on his forehead, and those deep eyebrows and eyes: "Compared to what you did for me and Xiao Bei Do it, it's nothing."

"I am also entrusted by others. I will be embarrassed if you always talk about it." Lin Chi scratched his head and changed the subject very naturally, "Does Xiaobei know that you are here?"

"I know, he also strongly demanded that I must come here..."

The two chatted one after another, and the distance shortened a lot, but at this moment, Lin Chi suddenly noticed that the area illuminated by the soul lamp began to shrink slowly...

"Your soul lamp has dimmed..."

Hearing this, Xi Nan looked at the flickering soul fire on his fingertips, with a slightly apologetic expression on his face: "Sorry, I may... have to send you here."

Lin Chi shook his head and reached out to support Xi Nan: "Are you okay?"

"Well, it's just a little weak, and you'll be fine after a while. Don't worry... Sorry, I thought I could take you to a farther place."

"It's been a great help." Lin Chi helped Xi Nan to sit down on the stone steps by the side of the road. The healthy boy now looked extremely weak, a bit like when Lin Chi saw him downstairs at Ji Bei's house. The body is on the verge of collapse.

This made Lin Chi a little worried: "Are you really okay?"

"Don't worry, I signed a contract with your father, and I will not disappear before Xiaobei passes away." Xi Nan smiled, "Aren't you still in a hurry? If I delay the time, it will be mine." Not any more."

After repeatedly confirming the condition of Xi Nan's soul body, Lin Chi bowed deeply to him, turned his head towards the direction Xi Nan pointed out for him, and continued to stride forward.

The cold and obscure wind hit his face, shaving his face sorely.Lin Chi opened his mouth to breathe, and the wind entered through his mouth and nose, causing his chest to twitch.The internal organs seemed to be mixed together, Qi Qi protested to the master, Lin Chi had to stop, but at this time, it was only a few minutes before he and Xi Nan parted ways.

Lin Chi even felt that when he looked back, he could still see Xi Nan sitting by the roadside.

At this moment, a laughing voice descended from the sky, saving Lin Chi Yu from "dire water and fire", and following the sound, he found another acquaintance.

"Small brother, slow down your breathing." Seeing Lin Chi looking over, Xiao Ming jumped down from the barren marble flower stand by the roadside, and said with a smile, "A poison-eating ghost came here, making this area smoky. For a while, even the road is covered with miasma and poisonous gas, without me leading the way, you will have to spend a lot of effort."

"Senior Xiao Ming?! Why are you here?" After seeing who came, Lin Chi couldn't help being taken aback. He naturally remembered the unlucky senior in the Liu Tianjin incident.
