C283 Yellow Paper

It's day now, but it's night in my eyes. With the help of the crescent moon in the sky, I could vaguely see the backs of the three people in front of me.

I don't know who they are, I don't know where they came from, I don't know if they're good or evil, but in this damned place, I have no choice but to bite the bullet and continue walking forward.

I have eyes, but that's the same as nothing, because what I see is not true. I also need Mr. Five-One, and his one eye to take me to the morning.

I would like to know where Mr. Five-One is, because he is our eyes, but the three men in front of us are so secretive that they have no intention of telling me.

Whenever I asked, they would act as if they were facing a great enemy and wouldn't let me continue. It was as if the whereabouts of Mr. One-Eye Five was a taboo.

I had to keep my mouth shut and keep all my questions to myself. Forget it, forget it, as long as I can get out of this damn place, as long as I can get out. Just look at each other. Love each other.

However, after a short period of time, I noticed something. The four people in front of me didn't make any sound at all as they walked. And then I realized that they weren't the only ones who didn't make a sound, not even when I walked.

I began to feel uneasy. Am I dead?

I looked down and was relieved. My shoes were gone, and of course there was no sound as I walked barefoot on the road.

I looked again at the three men in front of me, also barefoot.

Tonight is truly strange. I am barefooted, yet I actually met three people with the same bare feet. Isn't this too much of a coincidence?

Hm? Wait? Three barefoot people? I suddenly remembered the three pairs of shoes from before.

Could those three pairs of shoes be theirs? Their shoes followed me until I left a pair behind.

Isn't it too much of a coincidence that I run into them again?

The more I thought about it, the more unsettled I became. I asked the person in front of me, "Brother, where are your shoes? Why are you walking barefoot? "

Without even turning his head back, he casually said, "The mountain road is very dangerous. There are very few people here, and there are all kinds of monsters and monsters. "Terrifying."

"Yeah, yeah." At the same time, I thought to myself, What are these people going on about?

I coughed and asked, "Where are your shoes, man?"

The man said, "Didn't I tell you? The mountain path was extremely dangerous and terrifying. If we don't take off our shoes, how would we dare to walk? "

Puzzled, I asked, "Do you dare to walk? Is it related to taking off your shoes?"

That person laughed: Of course it's alright, have you not heard of it? Barefoot people are not afraid of shoes. Once I take off my shoes, this person will have more guts. "

I was a little annoyed, wasn't the answer obvious?

I was sulking when the man turned his head. He turned his head in a peculiar way. His shoulders didn't move, and the simple twist of his neck was close to 180 degrees, which gave me goosebumps.

That person chuckled and said, "It was just a joke."

I managed a smile. "Is that so, is it?"

That person's voice was very mysterious, "The real reason is that if you take off your shoes, there will be no sound when you walk. That way, they won't be able to tell if we're human or ghost. When ghosts see us, they think we're ghosts. When people see us, they think we're humans. "

I fearfully asked, "Then, are you guys human or a ghost?"

After that person heard what I said, his expression changed, and he said in a low voice, "Brother, in this damned place, do not ever ask others whether they are human or ghosts. For example, right now, I don't know if you're a human or a ghost, so how could I dare to tell you if I'm a human or a ghost? "

I nodded. "I have my own opinions."

The man chuckled and turned away again.

We walked on in silence for a while, and soon we reached the little village. At this moment, the team suddenly stopped.

Puzzled, I asked, "Why aren't you leaving?"

The person at the front said, "Mr. One-eyed Five is tired. He needs to rest for a while."

I nodded. "It's good to rest for a while." After a night on the mountain road, I was indeed tired.

I patted the person beside me on the shoulder. "Why are you all wearing yellow paper on your face?"

The man looked startled, and his body went stiff for a moment. Then he stretched out his hand and touched the yellow paper on his face. Then, puzzled, he asked, "You don't have yellow paper on your face?"

I shook my head, then remembered that the man's face was covered with yellow paper and I couldn't see what I was doing, so I said, "I don't have yellow paper."

That person fumbled around for a while before taking out a piece of paper and passing it to me. "Brother, take it. We're outside. There's a piece of paper that's better."

I frowned. "Do I have to?"

That person acknowledged, "Go ahead and stick it on. If you don't, you might not be able to see daylight. Fortunately, Mr. One-Eye hasn't seen you yet. Otherwise, hmph hmph, if we find out that you didn't post anything yellow, we won't be able to leave. "

I agreed, then licked the yellow paper and stuck it to my forehead. However, my eyes were covered by yellow paper. This was too scary. Strange monsters and monsters would always appear in my mind.

I hesitated, then reached out and tore two small holes in my eye. It was dark and no one could see.

I heaved a sigh of relief and asked the person next to me, "Brother, have you seen anyone else here?"

That person shook his head, "I've never seen it before. To be honest, you're the first one."

I chuckled dryly. "I have a few friends who are also here." One man, two women. "

That person probed, "Is it a person?"

I panicked. "What does that mean? Are you trying to test me? "

I hesitated and mumbled, "Some people, some are not."

That person said, "Oh, we didn't see him."

At this moment, the person at the front shouted, "Let's go, let's go! We're leaving!"

The four of us stood up and walked forward shakily.

I asked the person in front of me, "Bro, what would happen if I tore off the yellow paper?"

The man said, "Didn't I already say that? "Then you won't be able to see the day."

I coughed dryly. "I mean, what if I tore off your yellow paper, looked at your face, and stuck it on you?"

That person seemed to be very scared, even his voice was a little shrill. "Bro, you don't want to harm me. If you harm me, I'll... I'll... I won't let you off. "

I quickly comforted him. "Don't worry, don't worry. I was just casually asking."

While I was speaking, I saw that we had arrived in the little village.

The others had yellow paper on their faces and didn't think much of it, but I could see clearly that my yellow paper had holes in it.

I saw that there were no houses in the village, only small temples, and every temple was a third royal aunt temple.

Some of the temples were huge, with great halls, courtyards, and large gates. Some temples simply had only one room. The Inside the house worshipped the third royal aunt. However, the most sinister thing was that there was also a piece of yellow paper on third royal aunt's face.

I whispered to the person, "Why are there so many small temples here?"

The man was so scared that his voice trembled, "What are you talking about? Brother, our faces are covered with yellow paper, how did you see that? "

"I smell it," I lied. "I smell it."

The man kept muttering, "I don't know anything, I don't know anything. "My eyes can't see, my nose can't smell, my ears can't hear, my tongue can't taste …"

He chanted continuously like he was reciting a scripture. I was even more frightened when I heard that strange sound.

The group passed through half of the village without even the slightest sign of dawn. I thought to myself in fear, "Just what is going on here?" Where did they lead me? Could it be that these people knew that I was desperate to get out of this place, so they set up a trap for me? "

While I was thinking, the group suddenly turned a corner and entered a third royal aunt temple.

I saw that there was a light on top of it, flickering about, illuminating the statue of the third royal aunt. Strangely, the statue was not covered in yellow paper.

After the four of us went in, we all fell to our knees with a plop. Then I heard a meow and a black cat jumped out of the arms of the first man.

This black cat was very devilish, with only one eye in the middle of its face.

I was struck by a thought: could it be Mr. One-eye Five?

The black cat seemed to notice my gaze and turned to look at me. I immediately closed my eyes and knelt on the ground, not moving.

I closed my eyes, and my mind became more active.

Is there a black cat here? I remember that we also had a black cat called Xiao Miao. That cat seemed to be carried by the Little Tang Wei.

I turned my head to look and saw that the person kneeling at the very front had a petite stature with long hair. It was a girl and from the looks of it, her back looked a little like a Little Tang Wei.

I looked at the second person. He was tall and slender, and he was kneeling on the ground, revealing a snow-white neck. Why does she look like Xia Xin to me?

I looked at the man I'd been talking to. He was on his knees, limping. ~ Could this be the Mr. Zhao?

Were they making fun of me by pretending not to know me even when they knew me and leading me to this damned place to scare me?

But that doesn't make sense. We're trapped inside the Eight Trigram Formation, so what is the point of wandering around here if we don't leave earlier? They shouldn't be so stupid, right?

At this moment, I suddenly heard a faint voice ask, "Who are you?"

The voice came from the idol, but it was definitely not the voice of the third royal aunt.

I stole a glance at it and saw that the statue's expression had changed. Instead of an indifferent expression, it turned into a weird smile.

I looked at the deity statue in fear and didn't reply. It was the other three who answered, "We are Mr. One-Eye Five."
