Fall into a trap

The three of them found a wasteland and sat down. Li Pingan took out a large cake and water from his storage bag and gave them to Feng Sheng and Jiu Qi, but they did not eat.

In the end, only Li Ping'an ate it.

Jiuqi stared at Fengsheng, who was sitting a little further away, for a few seconds. Fengsheng looked into the distance. Li Pingan looked at the cake in his hand. The three of them had their own thoughts.

The further Li Ping'an walked, the tighter his brows furrowed. It wasn't because there were too many monsters, but because the road was too smooth. There must be something fishy going on.

Li Pingan was observing the leader's voice from behind. The closer he got, the lighter his steps became, and even his expression became more cheerful.

"arrive."

The sound of the wind stopped in front of a dark cave entrance.

"That's its home."

"Then go in."

Li Pingan didn't want to be the first to go. After all, her fighting ability was the weakest here. If something jumped out from inside, she would be doomed.

What's more, she felt very uncomfortable and unwell all over.

Finally, Fengsheng went in first, Li Pingan went in the middle, and Jiuqi was at the bottom.

In the pitch-black tunnel, in addition to the footsteps of the three people, Li Ping'an felt that he heard other sounds, but when the footsteps of the three people stopped, the rustling sound also stopped.

Li Pingan suddenly kicked something under her feet. When she was about to squat down to take a closer look, the wind in front of her suddenly grabbed her hand.

"Hurry up and go."

Li Ping'an was dragged forward. When he turned around and looked, the things on the ground disappeared.

As he walked further in, he heard a faint "tick-tick" sound. Was there water in this tunnel? Li Ping'an looked around but couldn't find the source of the sound.

"arrive."

Coming out of the tunnel, they saw a field of yellow sand in front of them. The sand rose up without any wind and rushed straight towards the three of them.

Li Pingan quickly covered his mouth and nose with his sleeves.

A sharp laugh was heard, but when Li Pingan wanted to listen carefully, the sound disappeared.

He looked back at Jiu Qi, his expression became serious, and he reached out to pull Li Pingan to his side, "Follow me."

The wind in front seemed not to notice the movement behind it, and continued to move forward on its own, gradually disappearing in the wind and sand.

"Aren't we following?"

Li Pingan was a little confused.

Jiuqi looked at Li Pingan, his expression slightly changed, "We've fallen into a trap."

?

Didn’t you intend to take advantage of the situation before?

Why are you saying you've fallen into a trap now?

"Illusion," Jiuqi observed for a while and came to the conclusion. Then he shook his head and denied it. "No, it's not an illusion."

"Close your eyes and try to lift your arms."

"Jiu Qi" suddenly turned around and said something to Li Pingan.

Li Pingan felt a little strange, but after listening to his request, he closed his eyes, felt the existence of his arm, and tried to lift it, but was shocked to find that he could not, as if his arm had disappeared.

Li Pingan opened his eyes in fear and shook his head at Jiuqi.

So what are these hands she sees in front of her?

"Don't just feel your arms, feel your legs, your stomach, even your head."

For some reason, the sound of the wind suddenly came from behind them, and the sound became gloomy.

"You, what did you do to us?" Li Ping'an wanted to step forward, but suddenly fell to the ground.

"Then I'll let you see clearly." A gust of sandstorm hit Li Pingan, and he couldn't even put his hands over his mouth and nose. He could only watch as the sandstorm filled his mouth and nose.

She felt suffocated and coughed violently, tears soaking her eyes. When she opened her eyes again, she was frightened by the scene before her and screamed.

At first glance, "Jiu Qi" looked extremely terrifying. The right half of his face was devoid of flesh, leaving only bones. His body was covered with wounds, and the blood that flowed out soaked his clothes. His right hand was severed at the shoulder.

Li Ping'an looked down at himself again. He was in better condition than "Jiuqi". His hands and feet were still there, but they were tied tightly together.

"Jiuqi, Jiuqi, what's wrong with you?" Li Ping'an looked at him and was a little flustered, with anxiety in his tone.

But "Jiu Qi" did not answer her, but just lowered his head.

The wind pulled Li Ping'an aside and touched her face with his hand, as if tracing her outline. "They like you very much, and I like you too."

"As for you, I didn't expect that you are still alive after all this time."

He turned around and looked at "Jiu Qi" beside him with a resentful look on his face.

"Jiu Qi" had been standing there motionless since the beginning. If it weren't for the slight rise and fall of his chest, Li Ping'an would have thought he was dead.

Since "Jiu Qi" seemed to be failing, Li Pingan took a deep breath. It was up to her next step. "Where is it?"

"Do you want to see it?"

Feng Sheng's hand pinched Li Ping'an's neck, without exerting any force, as if just to feel her pulse with his thumb.

Li Ping'an closed his eyes and nodded vigorously.

"Okay." Feng Sheng replied, then pulled over "Jiu Qi" and slashed his neck with a knife. Suddenly, a stream of blood gushed out.

Li Pingan didn't want to watch, but Feng Sheng pressed her head, forcing her to watch "Jiu Qi" die.

"Since when did it start?"

Li Ping'an suppressed his fear and asked, determined to find out the truth even if he died.

"Take a guess."

Feng Sheng saw that Jiu Qi was still breathing heavily even in this state. He frowned and stabbed him again. "See if you can guess it before he dies."

"While bathing in the river?"

Feng Sheng shook his head and stabbed Jiu Qi's neck again, "Guess again."

Li Pingan couldn't turn his head, so he could only turn his eyes away and answered in a trembling voice, "Where is the pink flower?"

Feng Sheng shook his head again, forcing Li Ping'an to look directly at "Jiu Qi", and cut another knife under her gaze.

Li Pingan couldn't stand it anymore, "I don't know, I won't guess." Even if "Jiu Qi" was beyond saving, Li Pingan didn't want to see Feng Sheng to kill him.

Feng Sheng put away the knife and said, "If you don't want to guess, then don't guess."

"Let me tell you, the correct answer is between your two answers."

"How did you do it?" Li Ping'an recalled and found nothing special.

"Why are you so curious?" Feng Sheng held Li Ping'an's face, as if blaming him, but he was smiling.

"Wait until I finish the next thing, and I will tell you whatever you want to know." His fingertips rubbed Li Ping'an's chin, causing her to tremble.

After saying that, Feng Sheng carried Li Ping'an on his shoulder with one hand, and dragged the body of "Jiu Qi" with the other hand, and walked towards the depths of the yellow sand.

Li Pingan was unable to open his eyes due to the yellow sand, and his physiological tears kept flowing out.

Tears washed away the yellow sand, allowing her to briefly see the situation below.

The constantly rolling yellow sand revealed piles of white bones. It was hard to imagine how many creatures had died here.

It was not until they crossed the yellow sand that the wind put Li Ping'an down. Li Ping'an looked around and found that the buildings and furnishings here were just like human residences.

Li Pingan was placed on a chair, his hands and feet tied, unable to move. He could only watch the wind drag "Jiu Qi" backwards.

"What are you going to do?"

Li Pingan jumped down from the chair, jumping to keep up with Feng Sheng's footsteps.

Feng Sheng turned around and looked at Li Ping'an with a worried look on his face. "Are you really that reluctant to part with your old lover?"

After saying that, he raised the corners of his mouth and smiled, "Okay, I'll let you see him off for the last time."

As he said this, he carried Li Pingan and walked back.

Li Pingan originally thought he would see some disgusting scene, but who knew that there was a small pavilion and a small pond in the backyard.

There was a group of unknown creatures rolling in the pond. When they heard the wind coming,

"Brother Fengsheng,"

"Brother Fengsheng,"

"Brother Fengsheng,"

…

There was some difference in the tone and voice, which reminded Li Pingan of the group of children at the foot of the mountain.

"They are it?!"

Li Ping'an had a vague guess, but it was hard to believe.

The sound of the wind threw the body of "Jiu Qi" into the river, and the water began to roll, and clouds of blood mist spread out.

Feng Sheng seemed to be in a good mood. He helped Li Pingan up and untied the ropes on her feet. Then, he smiled and answered her, "Yes and no."

What does it mean to be and not be?

Before Li Pingan could think about this, Feng Sheng put his hand on her shoulder and forced her to look at him.

"I know you are not from this world,"

The wind touched the dot on her wrist through her sleeve.

"But don't worry, after today, we will be husband and wife, so you can stay here with peace of mind."

Li Pingan widened his eyes and asked, "What are you talking about?"

"Didn't you say it was a fake marriage?"

"Sorry, I changed my mind." Feng Sheng shrugged, but there was no apology in his tone.

Then, he turned around and looked at the pool, and Li Ping'an's sight followed him. The pool, which was originally filled with blood, had now recovered and became clear to the bottom.

Li Pingan's tears came out as he watched.

After Feng Sheng saw this, he reached out and grabbed the corner of her mouth, saying in a toneless voice: "He's dead, you should laugh."

Forced Li Pingan to smile.

Afterwards, Li Pingan was locked in a room. Before Feng Sheng left, he said, "I know there are three ghosts in you."

"If you dare to let it out, do you think it will eat them?"

After saying that, the wind locked the house.

Li Ping'an leaned on the bed, looking at the dim room with a solemn expression. It was unknown what he was thinking, but his hands did not stop moving, cutting the rope with a dagger.

There are too many corpses in the yellow sand, and they don't look like monsters or beasts.

If they were people, where did so many people come from?

Also, what he said just now, is it and is not,

What does it mean?

After cutting the rope on his hand, Li Pingan rested his feet on the ground for a while and then searched around.

But he was right about one thing, it was too dangerous here, Annie and the others still couldn't be released.

Speaking of Annie, Li Pingan slapped his forehead. Annie said she was afraid before, maybe because of this.
