Jiang Xian had never heard of the underground castle before. Even Jiang Xian was shocked when he heard the name "the local mayor" Sha Tianfeng spoke of it. He did not expect that under his watchful eyes, the mayor, Sha Tianfeng, would carry out such a huge project.

Jiang Bufan was just a cannon fodder. It was obvious that Sha Tianfeng was using Jiang Feifan's peerless lightness techniques and his exceptional courage to come together with Meng Xiaodie to complete this mysterious exploration mission.

Shen Hong had just joined Sha Tianfeng, so it was hard for her to determine what role she was playing.

Meng Xiaodie secretly observed Shen Hong. He couldn't find an accurate answer from this woman's expression.

It was late in the night and the three of them were living in three separate rooms. Meng Xiaodie said to Shen Hong, "Be careful, there are ghosts in these rooms."

Shen Hong giggled, "Hero Meng who is not afraid of the heavens or the earth, is he still afraid of ghosts?"

"Hahaha, I'm not afraid of ghosts. I'm just afraid that someone will act like a ghost and scare me." There was a hidden meaning in Meng Xiaodie's words. He had already expected all of this, including the grocery store and this strange courtyard, to be a trap that Sha Tianfeng had set up for him.

"I wish you a good night's sleep. It's best not to dream of ghosts." A strange smile appeared on Shen Hong's face as he left.

Meng Xiaodie had used one hour to force the poison out of her body, but the Hundred Blossom Soul Search was extremely toxic. Although he had suppressed the poison down to prevent it from spreading, it would take at least half a month to purge the remaining poison from her body.

Meng Xiaodie also had a bad habit of never asking for help. He didn't even want to open his mouth and ask her for the antidote. He knew that even if he asked for it, Shen Hong wouldn't necessarily bring out the antidote.

Meng Xiaodie was about to close her eyes when she suddenly found a huge shadow on the wall. The shadow was crawling slowly towards where he was sleeping.

Meng Xiaodie suddenly stood up, but that black shadow had disappeared, as if it had dissolved on the wall. What kind of monster was this?

Meng Xiaodie lay back down, pretending to sleep. He narrowed his eyes and saw the shadow climb out from the wall again.

This time he saw clearly that the shadow was in the shape of a person, with slender arms and

The legs and face were the same as the human face, but the whole face was like a piece of white paper, and the eyes were like two black holes, but they emitted a cold light. It kept staring at Meng Xiaodie, who had already climbed up to the roof and was looking around from top to bottom.

This black shadow was not a shadow. It seemed to be alive. It opened its mouth and Meng Xiaodie saw a blood-red tongue that was dripping with disgusting mucus.

Meng Xiaodie quickly turned over, and the silkworm like mucus almost dripped onto his body. He could smell a kind of rotten smell. The moment he turned around, the black shadow suddenly rushed over. Meng Xiaodie pushed out her palm, but the black shadow nimbly dodged it.

That black shadow was as thin as a piece of paper. When it moved away, Meng Xiaodie saw a picture on its back — it was the Linglong Beast's head.

Meng Xiaodie was secretly surprised. What kind of monster was this, how could it have the pattern of a Linglong Beast? He thought for a while and struck out with his palm, intending to strike down the monster.

That monster's agility was beyond Meng Xiaodie's expectation. It climbed up the wall at an astonishing speed. Meng Xiaodie could not hit it with her palms.

After dodging a few palm strikes, the shadow suddenly stretched out its arms. It opened its bloody mouth, flew up, and pounced towards Meng Xiaodie.

When the shadow was less than a foot away from Meng Xiaodie, he suddenly pulled out the shadow and stabbed it towards her.

Pu!" The shadow didn't howl, but Meng Xiaodie's black sword had already stabbed it. Meng Xiaodie's black sword was unparalleled in this world. There were only a few martial artists that could dodge it. Naturally, this black shadow could not dodge this deadly sword.

Meng Xiaodie wanted to stab again, but the black shadow disappeared from the wall as if it had melted.

There were no traces of blood on the ground, nor were there any marks on the walls.

Hearing the sounds of fighting, Shen Hong and Jiang Feifan ran in. They saw Meng Xiaodie with a treasured sword in her hand, staring blankly at the wall.

"What's going on? Did someone break in? " Jiang Bufan asked.

"A very strange person. If that's a person, no, definitely not a person." Meng Xiaodie was still facing the wall, and his words were unclear to the two of them.

"Could it be a monster?" Shen Hong suspiciously looked at Meng Xiaodie.

"It should be a monster. It's a black shadow, but it's the same as a human. It has breath, flesh and can think. Its attack power is extremely strong."

"Shadow? "What black shadow? Meng Xiaodie, are you dreaming?" Jiang Bufan sneered.

Shen Hong's expression changed. She looked at the wall and quietly said, "He's not dreaming. He's a crawling person."

"Crawler? I've never heard of a Crawler. " Jiang Bufan looked at Shen Hong with a puzzled expression.

"The Crawler is an extremely terrifying monster in the underground castle. It is like a shadow sticking to the wall, ready to attack anyone that enters the castle. The moment you get hit by it, your skin will rot, eventually rotting into your internal organs until you die."

"There is such a terrifying monster?" When Jiang Bufan heard Shen Hong's description, he felt goosebumps rising all over his body.

Shen Hong shook his head, as if he was talking to himself. "It's impossible for a crawling person to appear here. It should be in the underground castle. How could it possibly come out?"

"Have you ever been to an underground castle? Have you seen this kind of monster before? " Meng Xiaodie asked Shen Hong.

"I've been down there once. Although I've never seen a crawling person before, but I've seen the people who were injured by it. They died in an extremely ugly way. There's only bones left."

"Why the f * ck does the mayor want us to scout that damned underground castle?" Jiang Xian scolded him angrily.

"Constable Jiang, don't complain. The City Lord's orders are an imperial decree for us. We can only obey."

"You know you're going to die, but you still have to obey?" Jiang Bufan said angrily.

"Why does your City Lord want to explore that underground castle? Is there treasure inside, or is there something else?"

"I don't know. If the mayor doesn't want to tell us, then I don't want to ask. Since the mayor doesn't want to tell us, then there must be a reason behind it."

"Bullshit theory, a bunch of blind followers, this is foolishness."

"Constable Jiang, no wonder the mayor has always been wary of you. You are a disloyal and unfilial person."

"Ah, Miss Shen, you can't say that. I'm a filial son, and I have a sick mother serving me every day. I've never complained before. Go and ask around, and the neighbors will know."

"So what if he's a filial son …"

"Forget it, stop bickering. If you have free time, why don't we discuss how to deal with the Crawlers?" Meng Xiaodie said with a frown.
