"Well... let's wait a little longer. We've already waited so long, haven't we?"
The monster murmured softly, his eyes fixed on the strange creature kneeling on the thousand-step staircase not far away.
The monster that originally had several deformed arms suddenly became unusually calm, as if it had been cast under a spell.
It stood there quietly, and the aura it exuded was completely different from before, as if it had a new soul.
Then, something astonishing happened - the deformed tentacles on the monster's body that did not resemble human form began to gradually twist and deform, and accompanied by a teeth-grinding creaking sound, it actually slowly retracted all of them!
The man looked around, then walked over to Bai Di and sat down as if nothing had happened. His face showed a calm expression of peace and tranquility, and he looked peaceful and beautiful.
There was no word between the two of them, they just sat there.
Bai Di didn't show it on his face, but seeing this scene, although his heart was full of doubts, he slowly closed his eyes and tried to sort out the chaotic thoughts in his mind.
All the strange things he had experienced during this period of time were intertwined with each other, making him feel extremely confused and lost.
Although he felt that there were many things wrong around him, when he really wanted to point out what went wrong, he was speechless and didn't know where to start.
At this moment, Bai Di only hoped that the other three people could get here as soon as possible to meet him.
Perhaps only if we all get together and communicate and discuss with each other, we can find clues to solving these mysteries, instead of making random guesses without any clue like we are now.
At that time, when Ma Tuan rushed into the mysterious black fog alone, the moment he stepped into the black fog, his confused mind suddenly became clear, and an indescribable burning sensation quickly spread throughout his body, especially those parts that were in direct contact with the black fog, which were as painful as if burned by fire.
This sudden change surprised Ma Tuan greatly, because just a moment ago, he was leisurely smelling the charming fragrance of the mist flowers, enjoying the comfortable feeling of the cool breeze on his face, and running wildly with his new friends, and strolling and chatting on the long street.
But who could have imagined that in just a blink of an eye, Broer beside him disappeared without a trace, leaving him alone in this strange black fog.
There was no way. He really had no choice in the current situation and could only bite the bullet and continue walking forward aimlessly.
Although the thick black fog gave him a strong burning sensation, fortunately it was not unbearable. Ma Tuan kept comforting himself in his heart:
Persevere a little longer, and you will definitely be able to get out of this weird place!
So he could only take a deep breath and continue to move forward with difficulty.
At this moment, Ma Tuan was walking alone on this unknown road filled with black fog.
It was pitch black all around, and he couldn't see his hand in front of him. He had no idea where he was, let alone which direction he should go to escape from the predicament.
Just at this moment, another burst of cool and subtle crying and laughing sounds suddenly reached his ears.
The sound was extremely strange, sometimes like a man's low sobs, and sometimes like a woman's sad whimpers.
The strange sound echoed in the silent darkness, making people feel creepy.
Ma Tuan couldn't help but shudder and quickened his pace to get away from the source of the sound.
However, not long after he walked, he found that the road beneath his feet began to become bumpy.
Looking closely, I saw many broken bones scattered on the ground. Some of the bones even had long, thin strips growing on them, which looked like the limbs of some monster.
Looking at the densely packed bones in front of him, Ma Tuan felt a very familiar feeling, which he couldn't explain. Although he didn't dare to imagine who these bones once belonged to, he could only walk faster and faster.
But what he didn't expect was that as he continued to move forward, the "surprises" appearing on the ground became bigger and bigger - the slender objects growing on the bones became more and more conspicuous. Upon closer inspection, they turned out to be ferocious-looking, greedy venomous snakes!
They spit out their tongues and make hissing sounds, as if they are ready to attack the glutinous rice balls at any time.
Ma Tuan slowly lowered his eyes and stared straight ahead. Suddenly, a horrifying scene occurred—those seemingly ordinary "venomous snakes" began to undergo strange changes!
The patterns on their bodies began to wriggle like living things, quickly interweaving into distorted human faces. There were men and women, old and young, and each face showed an extremely exaggerated expression:
The corners of his mouth were pulled apart to his ears, and he laughed wildly.
At the same time, the crying that had previously been slightly resentful stopped abruptly without warning, and was replaced by a burst of laughter that was even more crazy and shrill than before.
This laughter seemed to come from the depths of hell, echoing recklessly in the pervasive black fog. It contained endless madness and despair, and it chilled anyone who heard it.
Ma Tuan thought to himself:
It is already difficult for me to stay safe in this horrible environment. If I still have to pay attention to these strange creatures that can make human laughter, it would be simply a fantasy.
Thinking of this, he slowly raised his hand and gently rubbed his cheek, which was burned and painful due to direct contact with the black mist. The touch was like being licked by a tongue of fire, and the burning pain made him frown.
However, he did not stop because of this. Instead, he raised his foot without hesitation and kicked hard, kicking the bone blocking the road far away.
