Stray Chapter 49: It’s not a big problem, don’t panic

Under the courtyard wall in a certain direction of the house, seven or eight people climbed over the wall one after another, and then carefully used the landscape of the courtyard to hide their shadows.

However, this is of no use. They simply don't know that as long as they don't come in through the gate and are led by a notice from the concierge, or an unauthorized object without registration and permission, they will be locked and discovered immediately.

"Humph! If someone in this house is really doing something wrong, I will definitely kill you..."

Murong Ziying, who was persuaded to follow over the wall with her, stood under the courtyard wall. She first looked at the house in front of her, and then snorted with a cold face.

Have the demeanor of a WTO-joining sword immortal, but it is very admirable just to hear it.

"Hey hey hey! Please keep your voice down first, this Sword Immortal hero, are you planning to wake everyone up as soon as you come in, so that they know that someone has broken into the mansion..." Han Ling She raised her eyebrows, feeling a bit of a headache.

I clearly said it over and over again before I came in, but I forgot it in a blink of an eye?

And it seems that this person is intentional at all. It seems that he can't wait to pose and speak his lines as soon as he comes in. Although he is acting out of hatred and upright, he also has a feeling of deliberately acting and using too much force.

"Humph!"

Murong Ziying's face changed slightly, but she didn't say anything, she just turned around and slammed her sleeves, and snorted coldly again with a displeased face.

After all, he has always been upright and straightforward. When did he do such a sneaky thing?

It's just like everyone said, everything has to be a proof. Before they really figure out what's going on in the Ouyang mansion, they can't come in directly. That's the same thing. Robbery.

At present, we can only come in quietly to investigate, and we can only make plans for the next step when we have the specific evidence and figure out what is going on.

Murong Ziying is because she wants to maintain her own integrity, but she feels that she can't do it for her own face, regardless of the evil spirits, and she can only agree and join with her nose. Among this group of people, they entered Ouyang Mansion at night...

Among the people who traveled with him, there were also his two younger disciples——

For the first time in my life, I sneaked over the wall, and it was seen by Huai Shuo and Xuanji.

Although Huai Shuo and Xuanji didn't think much about it at all, but Murong Ziying felt that her face was quite unbearable, so her mood was somewhat subtly irritable...

This is also the reason why as soon as he turned in, he couldn't wait to show his determination to be incompatible with the evil. He had to save some of his image in front of the two juniors.

"Be quiet first, you see, there is light in the room over there. I wonder if someone woke up at this time, or if they sensed our movement just now..."

At this time, Qin Ji's calm whisper sounded.

Everyone immediately held their breath subconsciously, and Murong Ziying's expression instantly stiffened.

There was a fire in the house in front. It seemed that someone had lit a candle in the house, but there was no sound, and no one opened the door and walked out to the outside yard to see what was going on. It should have been unaware. to what situation.

It's just that the people who were sneaking around kept quiet subconsciously and didn't move, like a few stones in the yard.

This has nothing to do with their guts or abilities, it's purely the effect of a naturally guilt-inducing thief. Even if they are all top-notch experts in the arena, or simply a sword immortal, they are all "thieves" who break into houses at night, so they naturally feel nervous.

“…”

“…”

The passage of time seems to be a very long period of time, and everyone's tension is gradually relieved. It seems that it is certain that it is not me and others who have been discovered.

"It's weird, it doesn't look like there's anyone there, why don't we go and take a look..."

Han Lingsha let out a light breath, and then glanced at the cold boy beside her. Considering that the other person was the thigh she was about to hug, she didn't say anything, just suggested it.

Everyone had no objection to this, but acted quickly. They came in to investigate the situation, and naturally they had to act, not to hide in the corner of the yard so that others could not find it.

So the experienced girl in red took the lead, walked through the yard without any sound, and easily opened the door of the brightly lit room.

Just go in and take a look, it's a very ordinary room.

No one was there, just a few lit candles illuminating, quietly emitting a faint light and heat.

Other than that, everyone didn't find anything special. They felt a little disappointed and subconsciously relieved, but even Xuanji didn't have any extravagant hopes. secret.

"Maybe it's the room of the person in charge of the night watch? Did they go to patrol other parts of the house?" Qin Ji offered her opinion, but this should be the most likely scenario.

"Then we won't be able to stay in this yard. They will definitely be back soon..."

No matter how they looked at it, everyone didn't think there was any secret hidden in this room, so they quickly filed out and returned to the courtyard.

Han Lingsha was standing in the dim yard, looking around subconsciously to identify the direction, ready to see where to go next, but suddenly found that everyone's expressions were solemn, and the atmosphere suddenly felt a little strange .

"What's wrong?" she asked hastily.

“…”

“…”

"Miss Han, haven't you noticed?... This is not the yard we came in before."

Qin Ji replied with a wry smile, she found that although the girl in red is often thoughtful, she also has a carefree side, and she may not notice certain things right in front of her.

It is not necessarily caused by carelessness. It is more likely that she feels that there are many people around her that she can rely on and trust, and she relaxes a lot without knowing it. If she was alone, she would definitely be attentive——

Otherwise, she would not have been able to travel around the world for so long at such a young age, and she has never suffered a loss.

"What?"

Han Lingsha looked stunned. After being reminded, she realized something strange.

The courtyard wall not far away is covered with ivy...

In some places the lime has peeled off, revealing mottled masonry...

The corners are overgrown with weeds, and they are also covered with dense cobwebs...

——Completely different from the yard they had just entered before, it seemed to have been abandoned for a long time, looking old and dilapidated, full of old and decadent atmosphere.

However, if you look closely, you can actually find that the layout and facilities in the yard are still the same. There are very obvious signs of weathering.

As if they had just entered the room behind them, turned around and came out again, the outside world had passed for at least a few decades, so that the big house was deserted and abandoned. .

"Wait! What's going on? Did we meet an immortal playing chess?"

Han Lingsha couldn't help covering her mouth and exclaimed. At this moment, she couldn't even care about what she said before to keep her quiet to prevent people from discovering this kind of thing. Her eyes were full of horror and shock.

The immortals play chess...is that the allusion to Kanqi Lanke?

Everyone was silent at the same time, and they all remembered that although very magical, but also very terrifying, creepy story.

It is said that in Jin Dynasty, a woodcutter named Wang Zhi went to Shishi Mountain to cut firewood. When he saw two boys playing Go in the mountain, he sat and watched, but before the game was over, a boy said to him, "You should left."

Wang Zhi only thought that the other party reminded him to chop wood, so he got up to get the axe, and saw that the handle of the axe was rotten, and the sharp axe was rusted unevenly. He felt very strange, and he didn't care about chopping wood anymore. He hurried down the mountain and returned to the village, only to find that his hometown had changed so much that no one recognized him.

When talking about the events of the year, several old people said that it was hundreds of years ago...

Han Lingsha didn't say it, but when she said this suddenly, everyone's heart skipped a beat--because what they're going through now seems to have some kind of strange similarity to this story of watching chess. place.

They looked back, the room was still bright, nothing had changed, but it was very strange in this deserted yard in the middle of the night.

Also, the bright moon in the sky does not know when it is covered by dark clouds, making the night dark as ink and the sky dark and hazy. This makes it difficult to recognize what time it is at this moment. In a trance, there is really a terrible illusion that the outside world has passed for a long, long time.

"I didn't feel any traces of magic just now, it seems that we just went in and took a look, and then came out again, nothing special happened in the middle, I don't know if it was..."

Huai Shuo hesitated for a moment, then said in a low voice.

"Don't talk nonsense! This must be some kind of sham, don't think about it! If the demon wants to confuse our minds, wouldn't you make it happen? Before you can figure out the situation, you first messed up yourself, Who can save you?"

Murong Ziying said coldly, also frowning.

"Uncle Shi's words are very true..." Huai Shuo was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly ashamed.

"You guys are waiting here for now. I will take off with my sword to see what's going on. This technique can only affect a corner of the land anyway. As long as I leave this house, I will naturally be able to see clearly... "

Murong Ziying said calmly, turning into a sword light and directly flying into the air.

Although he didn't notice any special changes, he didn't even notice the slightly abnormal aura fluctuations, and he couldn't tell whether all the scenes in front of him were real or fake, but he didn't believe himself at all. People can encounter such absurd things.

Besides, there is an innate gossip array set up by Emperor Fuxi in Chenzhou, which can naturally suppress all ghosts and snakes. If there are people who can change the world in Chenzhou and watch chess and rotten things, it must also be the result of gods and demons. force.

Anyway, Murong Ziying doesn't believe that she can meet such a "jackpot" by casually investigating a landlord's mansion. He is a very calm and rational person.

"Wait? He just left us just like that?" Han Lingsha gaped as she watched the sword light suddenly take off into the sky, soaring into the sky, disappearing into the yard and her field of vision. Some couldn't believe such a development. .

"It's not like that, Miss Han, Shishu is going to break the illusion we have in our hands..." Huai Shuo quickly explained.

No matter how brilliant this illusion is, it has limited impact and cannot be turned into reality. As long as you leave this house, you will naturally get out of the affected area, and you can use this to confirm that you have indeed been hit by an illusion.

And if you can't get out of it at all, it's also fine, which further shows that everything that happened is not real, although it means that it is very likely to be caught in a troublesome circle.

"That's it..." Han Lingsha felt at ease. She looked at the courtyard wall, "Then let's go over the wall now..."

"Miss Han, it's best not to do this. Before the illusion is broken, we are likely to be separated directly..." Huai Shuo stopped with a wry smile.

"It's foggy..."

At this time, Liu Mengli's graceful and soft sigh suddenly sounded, causing everyone to be slightly taken aback.

But when they looked around carefully, they found that the yard was still the same as before, except that the sky was more gloomy and gloomy, and there was no fog at all. Why is there fog?

"Hao Mengli, did you read it wrong?"

Han Lingsha looked strangely at the beautiful girl beside her and asked.

"Maybe I read it wrong..." Liu Mengli smiled, watching the hazy mist around her constantly changing and churning, without explaining anything.

She is different from others. What she can see or hear is not necessarily perceived by others. Even if she says it, the other party often cannot understand or even believe it.

As it is now, she clearly knows that she and others are caught in the dream of a certain existence. From her perspective, she can see that the surrounding world presents different colors, bright and dark, illusory and deep.

And their entry is like throwing stones on the water surface. The ripples spread out in circles, reflecting and superimposing each other, causing strange fluctuations in the heart image...
