Chapter 226 Red Clothes
Zhou Wen took out his mobile phone and took a picture of the boundary marker, and sure enough, he entered the loading interface.
"Zhou Wen, what are you doing? Get in the car quickly." Li Xuan shouted to Zhou Wen while sitting in the car.
"Come and take a look at this boundary marker. There seems to be something wrong with it." Zhou Wen said, pointing at the boundary marker.
Li Xuan and his companions got out of the car and walked to the boundary marker. Li Xuan took one look and said, "Is this a prank?"
An Sheng walked up to the stone tablet, touched it, and dug the soil underneath it a few times. Then he frowned and said, "This stone tablet wasn't buried recently. It must have been here for a long time. It doesn't seem like a prank against us."
"This is not a prank. How can there be such a thing as the Yin-Yang Boundary Monument? Does it mean that after seeing this boundary monument, we can really cross the Yin-Yang boundary and reach the underworld?" Li Xuan joked.
"I don't know if we'll go into the underworld, but it won't hurt to be careful. Everyone, stay alert." An Sheng carefully looked around and found nothing unusual.
There is only this one mountain road, and there is no other dimension nearby. It is impossible for Ansheng to turn back just because of the appearance of such a boundary marker.
Zhou Wen said, "Asheng, let's take another route. I feel like something's wrong up ahead. Could it be a newly appeared extra-dimensional realm?"
"Okay." An Sheng nodded slightly. He also felt that something was wrong, but if he took a detour, it would take more than ten hours to walk.
I turned the car around and drove back along the way I came. I drove to the fork in the road at the foot of the mountain, then took another mountain road and continued on the other side. This road was much longer and not very easy to drive on, and I couldn't drive very fast.
The road was extremely bumpy and difficult to drive on. The car body was vibrating violently. Zhou Wen took out his phone and looked at it. The download was complete and the icon of Yin and Yang appeared on the phone desktop.
However, Zhou Wen usually only played the Ant Nest dungeon in front of others. Now, in front of so many people, it was not convenient for him to open the Yin Yang Realm dungeon.
The car had been driving for most of the day, and Zhou Wen was shaking so much that he felt like he was about to fall apart. Li Xuan and Alai also felt a little uncomfortable, and the three of them were almost dizzy from the shaking.
squeak!
A sudden slam on the brakes made the three of them sober up, and their heads almost hit the backrests of the front seat.
"Brother Sheng, what's going on?" Li Xuan asked.
"There is another boundary marker ahead." An Sheng said, then opened the car door and walked down.
Zhou Wen and the other two followed him down, and sure enough, they saw a boundary marker beside the mountain path. It also had the words "Yin Yang Boundary Marker" written on it, but Zhou Wen did not see the small hand pattern on this marker.
"Is it so weird?" Li Xuan looked around. It was almost dark and what he could see was very limited.
"Asheng, is there any other way?" Zhou Wen asked.
"No, the other-dimensional realm has cut off most of the access. If we take another detour, unless we don't go through this mountainous area, it will take too long." An Sheng thought for a moment and said, "How about this, it's getting dark now, and there are no street lights, so it's not convenient to go back. Let's find a place to camp, and then when it gets light, we'll go back to find an airport and take a flight back."
"Okay, let's do it this way." Zhou Wen felt that this was the best way. It was not wise to take the risk of crossing the stone tablet of the Yin and Yang boundary.
Ansheng took out a simple tent and other tools from the car, found an open space on the side of the road, set up the tent, and placed some warning posts to prevent other vehicles from coming here and hitting their tent.
Although the possibility of a car coming here is relatively small, Ansheng still took every possible measure.
Li Xuan and Zhang Yuzhi were chatting, while Alai was lighting a fire and preparing food.
Zhou Wen was sitting in the car, about to open the Yin Yang Realm dungeon to see what was inside, when he suddenly heard Li Xuan's surprised voice: "What is that?"
Zhou Wen quickly got out of the car and looked over, only to see Li Xuan pointing in the direction of the Yin-Yang boundary monument, his face full of surprise.
Zhou Wen looked over and saw a woman in red standing on the other side of the Yin-Yang boundary monument.
It was prepared to say that it should be a woman wearing a red wedding dress. Zhou Wen had seen this kind of dress when he was a child watching TV dramas. He heard that it was a relatively ancient tradition.
Nowadays, women wear white wedding dresses when they get married, but in ancient times in the East, white was a dress worn only for the dead, and people wore red clothes when they got married.
When young ladies from wealthy families got married, they would wear an embroidered red silk wedding dress and a red veil on their heads. Only on the wedding night could the groom lift the bride's red veil.
The woman now standing on the other side of the Yin-Yang boundary monument was like a bride in red in a TV drama, with a red veil on her head. She stood behind the monument and seemed to be looking at them.
"Who is playing tricks there?" Perhaps because Zhang Yuzhi's trembling face aroused the secretion of male hormones in Li Xuan, Li Xuan was surprisingly bold at this time and shouted at the woman in red behind the Yin-Yang boundary monument.
The woman in red did not answer, but stood there motionless. Although her head was covered with a red cloth, Zhou Wen and the others felt as if she was staring at them.
Seeing that the woman in red didn't answer, Li Xuan became a little angry and directly summoned a legendary black-eyed leopard, ordering the black-eyed leopard to pounce on the woman in red.
An Sheng, Zhou Wen and others stared at the black-eyed leopard. They saw that the black-eyed leopard quickly passed the stone tablet, jumped directly into the air, and pounced on the woman in red with its sharp claws.
The scene that happened next made the five of them open their eyes wide and their scalps went numb.
The black-eyed leopard actually passed directly through the body of the woman in red, as if the woman's body was just an illusion.
"Could we really have encountered a ghost?" Li Xuan felt a little uneasy when he saw this scene.
He is not afraid of real guns and bullets, but ghosts are things that make people feel a little uncomfortable when they encounter them, no matter how powerful they are.
Li Xuan was about to order the black-eyed leopard to continue attacking, but he saw the body of the woman in red move. At this time, everyone noticed that the feet of the woman in red did not touch the ground at all. She was floating in the air, and the pair of red embroidered shoes on her feet could be clearly seen.
Just now, because of the boundary marker blocking the way, several people thought she was asleep. Now seeing this scene, they all had the urge to turn around and run away, even Zhou Wen was no exception.
When he was a child, he listened to his grandfather tell many ghost stories, including the story of the ghost bride. He thought to himself: "Could I really meet a ghost bride?"
When Zhou Wen was a child, his grandfather told him the story of the ghost bride. It scared him so much that he couldn't sleep all night. As soon as he fell asleep, a female ghost in a red wedding dress came to him to take his life. It was simply a childhood nightmare.
