The village next door has its doors and windows wide open, but there is no one inside.

  Obviously more disciplined than the people in the previous village, they left early within the specified time limit.

  They chose a relatively clean room to stay in.

  It wasn't until evening that unusual noises were indeed heard coming from outside.

  Gu Yan first poked a small hole in the window paper and looked out.

  The hundred ghosts go out at night, everywhere is gloomy wind.

  Although there were no wails of ghosts, the sheer number of corpses was staggering, densely packed on the ground and rooftops, with an eerie atmosphere that sent shivers down one's spine.

  Gu Yan pulled out a yellow talisman from his sleeve and after muttering a string of incantations under his breath, the talisman suddenly burst into flames.

  "Master, the Stealth Charm will last for two hours, let's follow and take a look."

  They followed the corpse all the way through the layers of fog and mud, arriving at a long-abandoned high courtyard.

  At this time, corpses from all directions also gathered here in groups.

  All around were chaotic tombs.

  And the water-soaked and moldy remnants crawled up the courtyard wall in various twisted postures, drilling into it.

  Chu Cha and Gu Yan exchanged a glance before one after another they jumped over the high wall into the inner courtyard.

  The night is dark and mysterious, with layers of fog.

  Sometimes there are ghost fires burning with blood flames and magic light, and the sound of ghosts and demons is endless.

  From the outside, it looked like an ordinary abandoned house, but after entering, Chu Cha felt that this place was more like a tomb.

  After circling around the hall, some noise was gradually heard.

  It came from the house in front.

  Crack...

  "Rustle rustle..."

  ......

  It's pitch black all around.

  The sound is endless and eerie, making it even more mysterious and terrifying.

  They slowed their pace as they approached.

  The door and window were old and worn out, the paper on it was half torn off, fluttering in the evening breeze.

  Wave after wave of nauseating stench also wafted out.

  Chu Cha raised her eyes and looked inside ——

  Inside is dimly dark without light.

  However, with the moonlight shining in, you can still make out the general outline.

  Those water-soaked, moldy corpses seemed to be consciously scratching the rotting flesh on their bodies. The skin and flesh had been soaked in water until they were swollen and bloated, so with just a light scratch, a large piece of soft flesh would come off, revealing the stark white bones underneath.

  The rotting flesh was kneaded until it was mushy, with several excited maggots crawling on its surface, which were then smeared onto a human skull...

  Chu Cha's eyebrows slightly furrowed, she raised her duster and was about to go inside when Gu Yan grabbed her wrist.

  The two of them were stunned.

  Chu Cha was surprised by the other's body temperature, why it was so high.

  That young man in white finally got an answer as to why his master had given him a cold shower half a year ago.

  A faint blush rose to Gu Yan's face, he slowly released his grip on Chu Cha's arm, somewhat at a loss as he scratched the side of his ear, and slightly lowered his head, "Shi... Shi Zun, if we go in now, it'll be like stirring up a hornet's nest."

  Chu Cha slightly tilted her head and softly opened her mouth: "In your opinion, what should be done."

  "Wait and see what they are up to."

  It won't take long.

  His skull was covered with festering flesh, and two points of bloody red light suddenly burst out from his eye sockets that were crawling with insects. The surrounding area immediately became filled with an evil aura!

  It slowly crawled up from the ground, and with a slight movement, the rotten flesh applied to its body fell off in large pieces, like crumbling wall skin.

  Those corpses followed it as if they were being commanded, advancing in an orderly manner into a tunnel.

  They waited for a moment before catching up.

  Deep in the cave, far from moonlight, it was even darker and more obscure.

  Very narrow, winding inside.

  Gu Yan snapped his fingers, and a small spark of fire appeared on his fingertips, illuminating the surroundings.

  All that can be seen is the top of the tunnel overgrown with vines, and countless snakes of different colors are entwined above.

  Fortunately, the stealth symbol was still effective at this moment, and Chu Cha hid the breath of the two again. Otherwise, according to the situation just now, they had not yet detected the danger, but were entwined by a group of snakes.

  They walked forward with their waists bent, following the rotten smell to a relatively spacious courtyard.

  Many stone men holding weapons were placed around.

  And piles of skulls.

  Blackened and rotten internal organs were scattered all over the ground, with blackened skeletons in various postures. Some lay on the ground with their hands covering their faces, while others maintained a crawling motion forward. Some desperately scratched at the stone wall...

  It can be inferred that they were struggling desperately at that time.

  As they walked to the middle of the courtyard, the white barrier that had been shining on them suddenly broke open.

  Gu Yan immediately drew out the long sword behind him and blocked it in front of Chu Cha, vigilantly observing his surroundings.

  The Stealth Charm's duration was still half a time unit left, how could it break prematurely?

  Suddenly——

  A burst of clashing steel echoed from all around them.

  Those stone men suddenly stiffened and turned their necks, emitting two rays of light, grasping the iron halberds in their hands tightly, pulling them out from the ground and holding them horizontally in front of their bodies.

  The number is too many to be counted by eyes.

  They marched in unison as if led by a general, step by step towards Chu Cha and Gu Yan in the central area.

  That crisp and powerful footsteps, in this empty and secluded room, is especially clear. Every step seems to be stepping into people's hearts.

  A stack of yellow talismans emerged from his sleeves and surrounded him in a circle.

  He then pinched a key with his left hand.

  Those yellow talismans revolved around him as their center, transforming into several golden rays that shot towards the stone soldiers.

  "Explode firework."

  As soon as he gave the order, those talismans suddenly ignited automatically, and with a "boom" sound, the stone soldiers were blown to pieces in the dazzling flames.

  Gu Yan hastily grabbed Chu Cha's hand and ran forward.

  Those soldiers' footsteps were interrupted for a moment, and then they rushed towards them even more quickly!

  The golden token shot through the air like a sword and flew towards the back.

  Chu Cha saw Hei Lian Hua making such an effort to brush up a good impression in front of her, so she graciously put away the duster and placed it behind her back.

  They didn't feel safe until they had crawled into a stone chamber.

  Hei Lianhua panted heavily and gave her a harmless and gentle smile, "Master, we're safe."

  Chu Cha's expression was calm and collected, "Your proficiency in rune magic isn't bad."

  Hei Lianhua scratched her ear, somewhat shyly lowering her head and smiling, "Disciple will definitely work harder in the future, becoming Master's pride."
