Chapter 2137 Darkness Returns

"Even in dreams, I know that I am a guest. My three souls and seven spirits enter my dreams!"

I pinched the talisman in my hand and silently chanted the spell. Then, I stuck the talisman directly on my spirit platform.

Almost at the moment when the talisman was stuck on my forehead, I immediately felt dizzy. Then, the feeling of my soul leaving the body came again. Finally, I only felt a black screen in front of my eyes, but it turned out that my three souls and seven spirits escaped directly into Xiaoqi's spirit platform.

Cold, dark...

At this moment, I felt like I was falling into a bottomless abyss. The intense feeling of weightlessness instantly swallowed me up, and my brain also became confused at this moment.

I don't know how long it took, but the feeling of weightlessness finally faded away, and I suddenly opened my eyes.

"Where is this?"

When I opened my eyes, I found that it was pitch black around me, and there seemed to be a crowd of people around me. Now that I woke up, these people also opened their eyes and turned to look at me.

In the pitch-black environment, these suddenly opened eyes made my heart jump suddenly, but the next second, I suddenly realized where I was.

"This is Luoxia Village's shelter!" I stood up suddenly, looking at the crowded shelter, muttering: "The villagers have hidden in the shelter again, which means that it is dark now, and the fierce ghosts have come to attack Luoxia Village again?"

"Hey, Zhang Bairen!"

A familiar voice suddenly came from the dense crowd. I turned around and saw Chi Xiaoshu crawling out of the crowd. When he saw me looking at him, he immediately said: "Hey, give me a hand, there are too many people, I am being squeezed to death!"

I reached out and pulled Chi Xiaoshu out of the crowd, and then asked: "Where is your sister?"

"Why did you think about my sister as soon as you woke up?" Chi Xiaoshu snorted, and then asked: "What happened to you before? Why did you suddenly faint for no reason? Are you sick?"

"I don't have time to waste time talking to you. Tell me, how long have I been unconscious? What happened in your village during the time I was unconscious? And... has there been any changes in my body?"

If my guess is correct, Luoxia Village should be besieged by fierce ghosts now, and Chi Ruonan did not appear in the shelter. In other words, she is facing endless groups of fierce ghosts alone, as well as ghost fairies hidden in the dark, or even more powerful beings?

Thinking of this, I immediately became anxious, and my tone was inevitably a little aggressive.

"You, what are you yelling about!" Chi Xiaoshu was frightened by me and then said, "You have been unconscious for a day. It's past eight o'clock in the evening. Nothing happened in our village. It was just getting dark, and my sister said that for safety reasons, everyone should go into the shelter first."

"Nothing happened?" I frowned and then asked, "When did you come in?"

"Around five o'clock!" Chi Xiaoshu replied.

"That is to say, when you came in at five o'clock, the village was still safe, but now... you don't know either, right?"

"Yeah." Chi Xiaoshu nodded: "But I didn't hear any sound coming from outside, so... the village should be fine, right?"

I didn't continue with this question, but asked: "Then during the time I was unconscious, was there anything abnormal with my body?"

"Abnormal?" Chi Xiaoshu looked at me as if he was an idiot: "What abnormality could happen? You're unconscious, it's good enough that you wake up, I thought you were going to die!"

"..." The corner of my mouth twitched when I heard that, and I wished I could slap this naughty kid to the ground.

I took a deep breath to calm my thoughts, then said, "How do we get out of the shelter?"

"Just open the entrance!" Chi Xiaoshu looked at me like an idiot and said, "How can you get out without opening the lid?"

"Oh my god!" I couldn't help but curse, then walked to the entrance of the shelter and was about to push open the lid.

However, the villagers nearby suddenly became excited: "What are you going to do? You can't open that lid!" "

This lid can only be opened from the inside and closed from the outside. If there is danger outside, you open the entrance and it is likely to let the danger enter the shelter!" Someone also spoke up and agreed: "Besides, it's very safe here. I advise you not to go out. You can survive here!"

"It can only be opened from the inside and closed from the outside?" I frowned, and then said: "Chi Ruonan is still outside. If there is really danger in the village, I have to go to help her!"

"She is a dragon slayer, what can you do to help her?" Someone spoke up with an indignant look on his face, "Instead of worrying about others, you might as well worry about yourself! You were in a coma before, and I saw your body twitching from time to time. Chi Xiaoshu is right, we all thought you were going to die. You are not really sick, are you?"

"When I was unconscious, did my body twitch unnaturally?" I wondered what was causing this. Was it that this body had some kind of induction with my three souls and seven spirits, and would twitch with my thoughts?

Or...

after I left this body, this body underwent some changes that I could not see, and these changes are still quietly ongoing?

"If that's the case, then what will happen to my body in the end? Will it become something with independent consciousness?"

I shook my head, because that was impossible.

A body without the support of the three souls and seven spirits is just a dead thing. How can it have independent consciousness?

"Don't be afraid, let him go. He is also a dragon slayer. My sister said that if it weren't for him last night, our village might have fallen!" Chi Xiaoshu suddenly spoke to everyone.

Everyone was stunned when they heard this: "You are also a dragon slayer? Sorry, I was disrespectful just now!"

Someone smiled embarrassedly: "We are also trying to survive. In this era, human life is worthless and the least valuable thing. Perhaps our only value is that we can still reproduce and give birth to more offspring for the human race. Since you are a dragon slayer, then please do as you please. After all, our lives were saved by the dragon slayer."

When he said this, there was a lot of sadness in his eyes.

Because what he said was reality.

For the entire human race, they are really too insignificant. The only thing they can do is to continue the bloodline of the human race.

I didn't say much, but walked quickly to the entrance, took a deep breath, and then reached out and pushed the lid directly.

"Squeak..."

With a piercing sound, I pushed the lid open. I looked outside and saw that everything was quiet. Then I walked out of the shelter in a flash.
