Top Horror Novelist

Chi Yiyin doesn't think she is a person with too many emotions.

In fact, both his former classmates and teachers unanimously commented on him as "introverted" and "indifferent".

Compared with his own emotions, he is more used to empathizing with the ghosts in his works, so as to write ghosts into the book.

Even many years ago when he watched the man walk away in the slanting sun with cold eyes, or saw the sinful darkness in the lightless orphanage, he had never felt such profound and extreme emotions.

But when he met Li Sijun, he realized that perhaps his self-judgment of the previous twenty-three years had been wrong.

It's not that he can't get angry, it's just that no one except Li Sijun can stir up his deep emotions.

Chi Yiyin slowly calmed down from the dizziness of the rapid switching between the two scenes, her eyes were heavy, and when she watched Li Sijun, she could feel the killing intent surging in her chest.

He wanted to tear off Li Sijun's smiling mask and touch the temperature of Li Sijun's heart with his own hands, as if he was watching "his" heart beating with his own eyes.

He wanted to make Li Sijun suffer so much that he was on the verge of death, and let this person who always smiles but is too far away to see through reveal all the truth.

Li Sijun...

Chi Yiyin has never cared so much about a person, even if he wants to kill the other person, seeing the other person show real pain.

—He admits that he has a lot of extreme ideas that are different from ordinary people, and he wants to see how evil human nature can be in the process of exploring the truth.

Those dangerous ideas may be called crazy by people.

But Chi Yiyin called it real.

He faced the dusty window and the setting sun with his back, and the golden-red light coated his outline with a layer of gold, as if a **** opened his eyes to look at the world for the first time.

Through the floating dust, Chi Yiyin and Li Sijun looked at each other, and then strode towards Li Sijun.

He stretched out his hand to grab Li Sijun's tie, and pressed his palm against the other's strong and warm chest. He couldn't help but push him back until he hit the wall with a "bang!".

Li Sijun spread his hands, looked down at Chi Yiyin with a smile, without any movement of resistance.

But Chi Yiyin could see clearly that it wasn't because of Li Sijun's good temper, but because of the other party's contempt, just like a person looking at a weak and weak animal, only cuteness is left in powerless anger.

Chi Yiyin sneered, and he quickly wrapped Li Sijun's tie a few times around his hand, but with his backhand, he pushed the footless bird brooch that had been held in his palm out of the blade, and pressed it against Li Sijun's neck.

Li Sijun raised his head slightly, because of his height, his half-down eyes looking at Chi Yiyin had a lazy beauty, even though the sharp blade was against his aorta, every pulse was closer to the blade , he still didn't panic.

Instead, when he saw Chi Yiyin's eyes that were shining brightly with anger, he laughed softly.

"You let me see another future, why, just want to show me how bad and vulnerable they are, not worth saving?"

Chi Yiyin asked in a cold voice, stretched out his long legs and inserted them between Li Sijun's long legs, clamping him between himself and the wall, preventing him from moving a bit.

The distance between the two of them is so close that there is almost no gap, and Chi Yiyin can even feel the beating of the other's heart and the warmth of the chest. When he looked up at Li Sijun, the other's Adam's apple was light Rolling lightly, the blade left a shallow scratch on the neck.

Li Sijun's height of 1.93 meters is a full ten centimeters taller than Chi Yiyin's. When the two faced each other at close range, it was Chi Yiyin who had the upper hand.

In addition, Chi Yiyin was extremely jealous of Li Sijun, and several times of contact made him understand what kind of powerful enemy he was facing, so he did not dare to relax his vigilance at all. Even if he had a knife in his hand, he still used his body as a The chain firmly binds all the actions of the opponent, preventing the opponent from breaking free and counterattacking.

But Li Sijun still acted relaxed, he didn't care that he was pressed against the artery by the knife, as if he was watching a little milk cat jumping on his chest and meowing at him, even those golden brown eyes were full of blood. It's a smile.

"Are you angry, Chi Yiyin?"

Li Sijun lowered his head slightly, and asked the man in his arms with a low smile, "Because I killed you there? Or is it the future?"

"I thought you knew that it was a greedy player who died, not you. It's too early to kill you..."

"As I said to you, Yinyin, I would never take the initiative to kill people—it was their own choice. Greed and intemperance pushed them to a dead end. Even if I was guilty, it was just a crime of inaction."

Li Sijun's breath fell on Chi Yiyin's ear, causing him to frown slightly and tilt his head uncomfortably.

"You can try calling me that again and see what I will do."

Chi Yiyin sneered, and used the blade in his hand hard. Suddenly, a thin line of blood appeared on Li Sijun's sharp neck, and beads of blood slowly oozed out.

"Answer my question, or, I destroy this copy and find the answer myself."

Chi Yiyin smiled, but without the slightest warmth: "Since you want to know how much I am obsessed with the truth, then I can answer you now - destroying the copy will kill you, and you have to find out. This answer, Do you like it, Li Sijun?"

"Don't question me, Li Sijun, we all know that when I'm watching you, you're also watching me."

Chi Yiyin asked Li Sijun word by word, and said, "Tell me, do you think I'm threatening you now, or am I capable of doing what I say?"

Chi Yiyin's serious expression was reflected in Li Sijun's eyes. He knew very well that there was only one answer to this question.

Based on his understanding of Chi Yiyin, this gentleman who pretends to be gentle is actually the most brilliant liar. Anything that Chi Yiyin says is enough to convince others.

But now, Chi Yiyin did not lie. If he wants to break the boat... even if he hijacks the entire dungeon or even the game field to threaten Li Sijun to tell the truth, he can do it.

Li Sijun's gaze moved down and landed on the footless bird brooch, his eyes dimmed.

In his opinion, two kinds of people are the most real in the world.

One is crazy, and the other is really powerful.

Coincidentally, Chi Yiyin is both.

Li Sijun thought that he would be "soft-hearted" to save Ma Yuze, but he was a kind person who accidentally hit him. Even when he saw Chi Yiyin lying in the thick fog of Gushu Town, he just felt bored, as if he had just The opening was a botched play.

But... Chi Yiyin gave him a surprise.

A beast bound by a suit and a gentleman's gentle appearance, what will he do when he has the power to destroy the world?

Li Sijun couldn't help looking forward to seeing Chi Yiyin put on more interesting dramas for him, so that his boring time would have meaning again.

For this reason, he even pondered for a while—otherwise, how about deliberately provoking Chi Yiyin and letting him destroy the copy and the game field? It seems more interesting.

"How could I doubt you, Chi Yiyin..."

Li Sijun's voice was covered with a honey-like smile, and his tone was charming, as if what was hanging around his neck was not a knife, but a bouquet of bright red roses.

"Actually, I am looking forward to the surprise you will bring me."

He stared at Chi Yiyin and said softly, "Threat? No."

That's... the proof that you love God.

Chi Yiyin frowned uncomfortably, and instinctively felt that there seemed to be something wrong with Li Sijun, like the summer sun shining into the glacier, and the sticky melted honey disgusted him, and he even wanted to clean it up.

"From Ma's mansion to now, it's about time."

Chi Yiyin's deep voice reveals seriousness, enough to make anyone who hears his voice realize that he is not joking: "Before you confirm my attitude towards the truth, have you ever thought about what is wrong with me? , you are also within the scope of being investigated? Who are you, Li Sijun."

Chi Yiyin used to be calm enough to test Li Sijun step by step.

Starting from the name, observe him quietly, make a profile of him, and try to write about him.

But what Li Sijun did in the fake snow mountain completely angered Chi Yiyin, and also made him reveal the madness that had been restrained by the suit all along.

The ferocious beast that disguised itself with gentleness and gentleness finally opened its fangs and stared at its prey coldly.

Li Sijun looked at Chi Yiyin fixedly, his golden brown eyes flashed with amazement. He even stretched out his hand unconsciously, wanting to touch Chi Yiyin's beautiful eyes, which seemed to be filled with thousands of stars.

But in the end, he just lowered his eyelashes, smiled and said, "I am the decay of the past, the accumulated sins, and the scorching sun that is about to fall. Chi Yiyin, who am I?"

"No, I am nobody - I can be anyone, and I can be anyone's past and future. Desperate youth. And in the end, I will all go to the end of death, saying that this life is nothing but mud."

"I am a vicious **** with countless books, a king of subjugation who fled in haste, a minister in distress who begged for bones, and a high-spirited treacherous villain. Every coffin buried in the tomb is me, and everyone who worships in the temple is me. A **** is also I..."

"Chi Yiyin."

It was rare for Li Sijun to suppress his smile, his eyes were full of solemnity, and he called softly: "Come and tell me, who am I?"

Chi Yiyin didn't expect to get such an answer. His eyes widened slightly, and the light in them shook like the waves of the sea.

But what surprised him the most was that based on his understanding of Li Sijun and his observation of sentient beings, he could tell that this time, Li Sijun did not lie.

It is precisely because of this that it is even more weird.

Chi Yiyin didn't know how to answer for a while, her mind was filled with a huge amount of information, and even her broad and fast thinking was so congested that she couldn't work.

In a daze, he unconsciously slightly relaxed the blade in his hand.

But Li Sijun didn't take the opportunity to break free, instead he patiently gave him time to react, and waited earnestly for an answer.

The corridor fell silent.

The setting sun came in through the dusty windows, projected on the wooden floor, and shifted inch by inch under Chi Yiyin's feet.

The noise came from the kitchen not far away, but it couldn't disturb the tranquility in the corridor.

It seems that this place has fallen into the realm of gods, and mortals are not qualified to set foot here.

Gu Xichao, who was on the side, watched the confrontation between the two in surprise. He turned the wheelchair, stretched out his hand to tuck the blanket back, and looked at the two of them in a leisurely manner—especially Li Sijun, who was pushed against the wall.

Gu Xichao habitually raised his hand and pushed the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, admiring Li Sijun's appearance with a smile, and suddenly felt that the "stage play" was really good.

Especially when the actors on stage become behind-the-scenes people who can never be actors.

Chi Yiyin was silent for a moment, but slowly retracted the blade.

He straightened his slender body again, pinned the footless bird brooch on the collar of his suit, and raised his hand to smooth the wrinkles of the shirt, as if nothing just happened.

"There should have been eleven copies, but now there are twelve—no, in my opinion, it should be fourteen."

Chi Yiyin looked at Li Sijun with quiet eyes: "The reason why I am in this dungeon has something to do with you, right? Li Sijun, what you want is to see my existence, or to let me And a hair-raising show?"

Although he was doubtful, his tone was full of certainty.

Even though Chi Yiyin had fooled almost everyone, he knew very well that he was just a newcomer, and the only people who interacted with him in the game field were probably the people he met in the last dungeon and the audience before the live broadcast .

However, very few survived the dungeon.

Tong Yao and Chu Yueli stood on his side for the time being, and almost died in the dungeon, which also proved that they were unable to trick him into going directly into the dungeon beyond the temporary residence area.

Jingcha may have this ability, but he told Chi Yiyin himself that he followed Chi Yiyin after confirming that Chi Yiyin had entered this dungeon.

In this case... Li Sijun is the only one left with the greatest possibility.

Although it is also possible that the audience who saw the live broadcast at that time, perhaps they had their own reasons, and those with real strength were hidden and manipulated behind the scenes.

But Chi Yiyin remembers very clearly that he started the broadcast as a rookie, and his fans started from scratch, and it was a free live broadcast for a long time. According to the information learned from Tong Yao, most of those who will watch the free live broadcast are players with little points and no ability.

After several rounds of screening, only Li Sijun was left.

Chi Yiyin looked at Li Sijun with heavy eyes, waiting patiently for an answer.

Li Sijun raised his hand, brushing his slender, white fingers across his neck, his fingertips were stained with bright red blood.

He hooked his lips and smiled lightly, but there was no anger at all, but a look of admiration in his eyes.

"You asked me for an answer, but Chi Yiyin... all the answers are actually in your behavior, words and deeds."

Li Sijun took a step forward and approached Chi Yiyin: "It's you I'm looking for—don't you realize it?"

"It's not about what I want, but about what kind of joy and happiness you...can give me."

Obviously Chi Yiyin hurt him just now, but Li Sijun suddenly didn't care, and instead approached Chi Yiyin step by step.

He lowered his eyes slightly, and the tall shadow cast down completely enveloped Chi Yiyin. What is more oppressive than his height is the aura around him, as if the entire seawater is overwhelming and crushing everything.

Chi Yiyin frowned, his slight cleanliness made him dislike getting too close to others, especially the dangerous Li Sijun.

He stepped backward step by step, but Li Sijun gradually moved forward.

Until Chi Yiyin felt that his back was pressed against the cold and hard wall, and there was no way to retreat.

And Li Sijun's palm also slapped the wall next to Chi Yiyin with a "bang!", using his body as a cage to tightly imprison Chi Yiyin in it.

His posture seems to be leisurely, but when Chi Yiyin wants to leave, he will find that in fact every angle is guarded airtight and he cannot break free.

Li Sijun lowered his head, and slowly approached Chi Yiyin's ear, his deep voice was slightly magnetic and hoarse, mixed with the mellow sweetness like mead, bringing a numb reverberation.

"Yinyin, what kind of truth you can get depends on how much surprise you can give me. Want to find out the truth about me and this world? Then... come closer to me, my dear seeker."

He is laughing.

In the suppressed shadows, only those golden-brown eyes were shining brightly, as if the last burning sun of the whole world had fallen into his eyes, it was too beautiful to behold.

Chi Yiyin's eyes darkened, and she was about to raise her hand when she saw Li Sijun take a step back in a gentle manner, loosening the shackles on him.

Li Sijun smiled lightly, and stood there with one hand in his pocket, as if nothing had happened.

Seeing Chi Yiyin looking at him, he even blinked at him, as if he had reached a tacit understanding between you and me.

—Of course, it is one-sided.

Chi Yiyin frowned, and endured it, so he didn't follow the anger in his heart and rushed up to kill this guy.

He is not a person with rich emotions. Even if he has redundant emotions, they disappear from himself as they are written into the pen.

Except that his anger towards Li Sijun is real, everything else is false, just masks put on his face, which are properly functioning in order to achieve his purpose.

Before Chi Yiyin asked Li Sijun that question, he never thought that he would get an accurate answer from Li Sijun - besides, even if Li Sijun told him himself, he would not believe it.

There are many lies in the world. It is better to believe what you see than to believe in words.

But as long as Li Sijun speaks, every word he says will become the material for Chi Yiyin to analyze him, making Chi Yiyin closer to the truth.

And today... the material he got today is enough.

Chi Yiyin pursed his lips, his smile barely noticeable.

Before Li Sijun realized it, he had restrained his smile and became calm again, without any excess emotion leaking out, he was still the gentleman who seemed gentle and kind.

On the other hand, Gu Xichao, who had been watching the two from the side, frowned. He looked at Chi Yiyin suspiciously, and always felt that Chi Yiyin seemed to have gotten something just now.

The coolness spread up Gu Xichao's back, as if something was beginning to lose control, danger was quietly approaching, but he didn't even know what it was.

This feeling of powerlessness caused Gu Xichao to be pulled into the memories of the past in an instant. His heart was full of turbulent waves, his eyes were gloomy, and his palms on the armrests of the wheelchair instantly tightened his grip on the wheelchair, so hard that his veins bulged.

Chi Yiyin was keenly aware of the strong emotions coming from Gu Xichao. He looked sideways, his gaze was as calm as a ruthless and precise scalpel, as if piercing straight into Gu Xichao's soul, dissecting everything about Gu Xichao before his eyes .

Childhood, memory, family.

The formation and development of character, the habits left by experiences, the subconscious reactions brought about by the shadows of the past... In every move of a person, his entire life is hidden, even the memories he has forgotten.

As long as you can read and understand, the person in front of you doesn't need to speak, he has already presented the truth to you.

As a professional novelist, Chi Yiyin is good enough.

Not only the horrifying plot, but also the human nature and truth that he keeps digging deeper—that is the important reason why he is regarded as a top horror novelist and makes readers shudder.

Because the characters he wrote suddenly come back to life on paper, walk into readers' lives, and hide in every corner of readers' homes, every reflective glass and mirror.

Those experiences of exploring the truth of ghosts make Chi Yiyin very good at digging human nature.

His eyes quickly slid over Gu Xichao's body, and he had roughly seen Gu Xichao's past experiences.

Gu Xichao was not congenitally disabled, his legs under the blanket occasionally twitched, which was a manifestation of the nerves subconsciously thinking that he was still alive, but he himself did not rely on his legs.

It seems that his legs have been injured for many years.

Habit is a scary enough thing, it will make people instinctively want to act according to the habit after losing it.

—How can people who have walked before forget the memory of walking?

But Gu Xichao didn't show any habit of walking, only showing disgust when his eyes skipped over his legs occasionally.

But that disgust is not like a hatred for the inconvenience of mutilated limbs, but rather like these legs represent a painful memory that Gu Xichao doesn't want to recall.

Was there an accident in childhood?

Chi Yiyin paused, and made the first judgment to Gu Xichao.

It seems that it was because Chi Yiyin's confrontation with Li Sijun was beyond Gu Xichao's expectations, and he seemed particularly uncomfortable with it, and even a little irritable.

But what Chi Yiyin saw was not a violent character, but a deep hatred for powerlessness.

Gu Xichao is hating himself, as if he loses control of the situation, it will arouse the other side of him hidden under the gentleness, he is afraid of what will happen after he loses control.

Chi Yiyin pondered.

Such emotions are also common in people with physical defects... But Gu Xichao doesn't seem to be like this. So, is the source still the accident that caused Gu Xichao's legs to be disabled?

Chi Yiyin has always believed in Adler's view that "people spend a lifetime to heal childhood". He once analyzed himself almost coldly, using his childhood as an example to figure out himself, and explored his own existence and origin inwardly. Therefore, it is more clear that many people are still repeating their childhood even in their old age.

From his point of view, the Gu Xichao in front of him at this moment was exactly that.

Before that, Gu Xichao kept calm, as if nothing could make him lose his calm, and everything was under control.

Until now, when Li Sijun's position changed and the balance of power began to tilt, Chi Yiyin also showed his own uncontrollable strength.

All kinds of unexpected things finally made Gu Xichao lose his composure, and under the strong emotions, Chi Yiyin saw part of the truth.

Chi Yiyin walked towards Gu Xichao, he bent down slightly and approached him, and was about to guide Gu Xichao to say something proactively, when he heard an anxious and concerned voice not far behind Gu Xichao.

"Chi, Mr. Chi? Are you okay? The corridor here was suddenly impassable just now, and you disappeared."

The moment the sound sounded, it was like the heavy hammer of the end, and Gu Xichao, who was immersed in his own emotions, suddenly came back to his senses.

And it was at this moment that the audience before the live broadcast broke out in surprise.

[Recovered, recovered! Shockingly, the live broadcast is finally back to normal! ]

[It's so weird, is there still signal interference in a place like the game field? I really couldn't see anything in the host's live broadcast room just now, only a snowflake. ]

[I've never encountered this kind of problem, what the **** is the host's live broadcast room. ]

[…Um? Why do I feel that it seems that I can't connect with the picture when the live broadcast was cut off? What happened in the middle? ]

[Possibly "silent". ]

The high-level player immediately realized something, and turned to contact his companions: "'Silence' appeared."

And Gu Xichao's body in the wheelchair froze.

When he raised his head again and looked at Chi Yiyin in front of him, he had put on his smiling mask again, and he was still that gentle and refined elite figure.

"Mr. Chi."

Gu Xichao looked surprised: "What's the matter?"

Chi Yiyin's eyes darkened, but she didn't explore too much, but made a decisive decision.

It only took a few seconds, but now that Gu Xichao has regained his composure, he has lost the best opportunity to explore, so he can only look for another opportunity next time.

Thinking of this, Chi Yiyin showed a concerned smile, and raised his hand to help Gu Xichao straighten the blanket that fell on the ground.

"Mr. Gu seems to be thinking about something, do you need help?"

Gu Xi reflected the light on the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, so he couldn't see the look in his eyes clearly.

When he raised his head and looked at Chi Yiyin, there was only silence.

The two of them are very clear about each other, and the other party has already seen some of their intentions, but neither of them made it clear. In the silence, swords clashed, and there was a faint smell of gunpowder smoke in the air.

In the end, Gu Xichao was the first to avert his gaze, and turned his head to look back.

Chu Yueli, leaning on crutches, stood at the corner of the corridor, watching Gu Xichao and Li Sijun warily.

Anyone can see at a glance his concern for Chi Yiyin from the bottom of his heart.

It was Li Sijun, who raised his eyebrows and looked up. Since entering this dungeon, it was the first time he looked straight at someone other than Chi Yiyin.

Even Gu Xichao was a little surprised.

There is one thing that Chi Yiyin, who is not familiar with the Snow Mountain Hotel and the playground, does not know.

When Chi Yiyin fell into the scene of the false snow mountain, and even confronted Li Sijun, the entire corridor fell into an untouchable void.

Except for the three present, the other players could not set foot here, and would be repelled by invisible forces, changing their direction silently.

Or, call it the Realm of the Gods.

Mortals are not qualified to see the gods, especially when the gods expressly refuse.

But this player who suddenly appeared around the corner, Chu Yueli...

Gu Xichao pushed his gold-rimmed glasses, looking at Chu Yueli with inquiry.

But when he glanced at Chi Yiyin from the corner of his eye, he recalled what happened when he was interrupted just now, and he suddenly understood.

Although it was strange that Chu Yueli was able to set foot in the corridor at this time, Chi Yiyin's temptation to him was interrupted by accident... Maybe Chi Yiyin was the one who was most unhappy now.

Gu Xichao smiled again, and the bad mood just now was swept away.

"Mr. Chi, your companion is looking for you."

Chi Yiyin was not as angry or lost as Gu Xichao thought, he just looked around, immediately judged the current situation, and retreated decisively.

He walked towards Chu Yueli with his long legs: "What happened? Tell me about it."

Standing beside Chu Yueli, Chi Yiyin looked back, and nodded to Li Sijun and the two: "My companion is looking for me, see you next time, Mr. Gu."

Chu Yueli looked at Chi Yiyin worriedly, then cast a wary glance at Gu Xichao, then limped on crutches and walked away from Chi Yiyin.

While Gu Xichao was sitting in a wheelchair, watching Chi Yiyin's background move away coldly, he glanced sideways at the body of the proprietress in the room next to him, and sneered.

Chi Yiyin...really, so rational that it's almost cold.

After the virtual scene of the snowy mountain, Chi Yiyin probably realized that he couldn't find any more clues in the pyrotechnic room, and the useful clues were more likely to be concentrated on himself and Li Sijun, so he turned to them Come.

When they were alerted, Chi Yiyin retreated decisively, not giving the situation the possibility of further development...

If this is the case, Chi Yiyin's anger towards Li Sijun just now is probably a mask staged.

The purpose was to test Li Sijun—or him.

Gu Xichao, who was out of memory, quickly regained his composure, but his brain re-functioning made him immediately realize the fact that the authorities hadn't seen clearly just now, and then there was a moment of bone-chilling coldness.

Chi Yiyin...

Gu Xichao read his name lightly, chewing it carefully between his lips and teeth, as if he wanted to see clearly the secret hidden under this name.

"It seems that I have to say sorry first."

Gu Xichao spread his hands helplessly, and said with a smile: "Just now I denied your new hobby, but looking at it now, I don't realize the fun in this little hobby."

"If it's a stage play."

He narrowed his eyes and smiled slightly, looked at his legs covered by the blanket, and muttered to himself with a low smile: "I'm afraid, this is the most exciting drama I've ever seen, it's really exciting, Chi Yiyin."

"Um?"

Li Sijun replied lazily, but said: "I'm sorry, this is mine, you have to find a new stage play."

Gu Xichao shrugged innocently: "Drama, isn't it just that everyone can watch it? How can we still divide yours and mine?"

The smile on Li Sijun's lips slowly faded, and he looked down at Gu Xichao with a cold and indifferent gaze, as if he was faintly angry at his offense.

That handsome face, which even the Creator himself could not create, has always carried a slight and lazy smile, as if everything is out of his sight, and it cannot arouse more emotions in him.

But until this moment, the smile on his face disappeared, and the onlookers would suddenly remember once again, what a terrifying and unoffensive existence it was.

Gu Xichao spread his hands as if surrendering, and broke the deadlock with a smile first.

"You said, would Chi Yiyin guess who is behind the scenes in the future of death in the snow mountain?"

He turned the wheelchair, turned his back to the direction Chi Yiyin left, and walked slowly away.

However, Li Sijun stood where he was, and looked up at the corner of the corridor where Chi Yiyin disappeared. The light in his eyes was like flowing honey, strong and gorgeous.

"How could he not know."

He chuckled lightly, as if he was talking to himself: "Little liar who is full of lies, even emotions are just masks, a born stage actor..."

Li Sijun raised his hand, looking at the blood stained on his fingertips, his eyes were uncertain.

His slender fingers caressed his neck again, and the palm brushed by, the bright red scratch suddenly turned into gold, and even the dripping blood turned into golden light, dissipating in the air.

The light of the setting sun slanted in, moved slowly, and extended, as if the sun was trying to reach Li Sijun, like believers kneeling at the feet of the **** devoutly and respectfully, kissing the ground.

Li Sijun's figure disappeared into the corridor, and the invisible power also disappeared.

And in the dusty room of the pyrotechnician, the uncorrupted body of the proprietress was sleeping peacefully in the couch, gently shaking with the wind blowing in from nowhere.

"Squeal!"

"Crackling..."

The landlady's cloudy and empty eyeballs suddenly turned violently, like glass beads rolling in a turntable, and her already stiff and cold arms were raised with difficulty, trying to stretch forward, as if trying to grab something.

But the next moment, like a statue made of sand, her whole body collapsed suddenly, and her body turned into countless fine sands, flowing towards the ground, making a slight sound.

When the setting sun moved and shone obliquely on the floor, the scattered sand and soil had been gently blown away by the wind and disappeared.

…

"You mean, you couldn't get into the hallway just now?"

Chi Yiyin paused, frowned and looked at Chu Yueli beside him.

Chu Yueli nodded, and told what happened after Chi Yiyin entered the pyrotechnic room.

Originally, after Chi Yiyin realized that there was something strange about burning the firework room, whether it was Jingcha or Chu Yueli, they all instinctively wanted to follow Chi Yiyin into the room.

But inexplicably, it seemed that an invisible force had turned into a barrier, blocking their way and preventing them from moving forward.

What was even more weird was that Chi Yiyin and Gu Xichao had disappeared from the corridor.

Jingcha threw the rabbits into the corridor twice, but all the rabbits disappeared in the corridor.

At the same moment, Jingcha said with a dark face that he felt the rabbit died—the moment he entered the corridor.

Hearing this, the first thing Chi Yiyin thought of was Li Sijun and the illusion of the snow mountain he had just seen.

Li Sijun called that the future.

Perhaps, it is because of the coexistence of "future" and "reality" that the mutation occurred near the corridor.

"Did Mr. Chi think of anything?"

Chu Yueli looked at Chi Yiyin worriedly.

Chi Yiyin shook his head slowly, and did not tell Chu Yueli everything, but only made a regretful expression, saying that he did not know.

"But, since that's the case, how did you get into the corridor?"

Chu Yueli scratched his head in embarrassment: "I just thought, I don't want Mr. Chi to have an accident, I must go in and have a look, and then I intuitively should walk over, but I actually walked over."

Chu Yueli didn't know what happened, but Chi Yiyin raised his eyebrows in surprise, and put a question mark behind Chu Yueli's evaluation.

He didn't feel that Chu Yueli was deceiving him—since he was able to perfectly deceive others with lies and illusions, he could tell whether others were deceiving him.

However, Chu Yueli was able to walk into the corridor all of a sudden... What's going on?

"What about the rest?"

Chi Yiyin glanced left and right, and found that the kitchen, which was bustling before, was now empty.

Thinking of the future he had just seen in the snow mountain, Chi Yiyin discovered that those people happened to be the ones who lost their trace.

He was startled in his heart, wondering if he should lure all those people to the snow mountain at the same time as Li Sijun showed him the future?

"They went to the landlady's room."

Fortunately, Chu Yueli's answer made Chi Yiyin heave a sigh of relief.

Chu Yueli pointed to the direction of the proprietress's room, and said: "Mr. Chi, after you went to the corridor, they followed Mr. Chi's train of thought to continue searching, but unexpectedly, in the proprietress' room..."
