Ma Tuan fiddled with the chain for a long time, but the chain didn't respond at all. Instead, it kept making rattling sounds.
Ma Tuan was afraid of attracting attention, so he decided to give up temporarily. According to his usual style of doing things, if something cannot be done, he will decisively choose to give up.
So he decided to pull out the cloth blocking Bai Di's mouth first.
"Pfft!"
Bai Di quickly spat a few times, then quickly looked up and looked at Ma Tuan with a strange look.
"What on earth is that thing on your back? I never thought you had such a fetish..."
Bai Di stopped talking midway, but his face showed an expression as if he knew some secret.
Ma Tuan suddenly remembered that he was carrying a "person" on his back, which was the skeleton.
What was rare was that even under the dim kerosene lamplight, Ma Tuan could see a subtle emotional fluctuation flash across Bai Di's usually expressionless face.
Ma Tuan laughed awkwardly twice, then pretended to turn around and leave.
As expected, Bai Di hurriedly stopped him, perhaps because it was not appropriate for them to argue at the moment.
Although Bai Di always resorted to cold violence when he had conflicts with others, this time Bai Di took the initiative to give in, showing his understanding of the situation. Ma Tuan decided to forgive him with his broad mind.
"It's sitting pretty high..."
Seeing that the altar was at least 1.5 meters tall, Ma Tuan muttered
"Try it first, can you get down?"
Ma Tuan turned back and asked in a low voice
Bai Di shook his head.
"It's fixed very tightly. Why don't you come up first? Or look for any tools around."
Bai Di struggled a few more times, but didn't move at all.
"What's behind me?"
Bai Di suddenly shouted again, scaring Ma Tuan so much that he shivered and almost jumped up.
"How come you're even less calm than me!"
Ma Tuan, who was frightened by Bai Di, rolled his eyes unconsciously behind the mask.
"Hurry up! Stop dawdling."
"I understand. Don't push me..."
Ma Tuan walked slowly while talking, looking like an old man, and there was a strange skeleton on his back.
"This thing scared me at first, but why didn't it scare Bai Di too? It's outrageous!"
Ma Tuan thought quietly in his heart.
"No, I can only see it clearly. You can see it there too."
When he was not far from where he took the rag from Bai Di's mouth, Ma Tuan suddenly stopped and could no longer move forward because he found that the chain around his neck had reached its limit. If he moved forward, he felt that he would be strangled to death on the spot.
Well...weird?
Bai Di looked at the scene in front of him and felt a little confused.
He sat high up, confined to the altar, while Ma Tuan's range of movement was restricted by chains. He could go anywhere in the room, but he could not get up to the altar where he sat.
Under the dim light, the dark room looked extremely eerie and scary. The room was covered with strange pictures that made people feel creepy.
Ma Tuan was carrying a strange and huge human skeleton, which was covered with a black robe and a mask. From a distance, it really looked like he was dragging a huge person. It was undeniable that his heart suddenly started beating violently when he saw it, and his hands even shook slightly a few times. It was not until he saw it clearly that he slowly calmed down.
Bai Di was a little confused. He could feel his memory slipping a little. But who had placed them here? What was their purpose? Were they trying to trap them? Or was there some more terrifying conspiracy?
Bai Di wouldn't easily believe such coincidences. They had just entered the forest when two people inexplicably appeared there. Furthermore, Nansong and Blore were currently missing, their lives uncertain.
This series of events is enough to make an ordinary person alert, let alone Bai Di. Compared with Blore and others, his ability is more suitable for secret operations. Therefore, sometimes sharpness is extremely critical and important.
So he decided to try a spiritual connection to see if he could get in touch with the outside world. Soon, he successfully entered the spiritual world.
A magnificent scene unfolds before my eyes: rolling mountains resemble sleeping dragons, while swirling clouds swirl like prancing tigers. However, the surrounding clouds are a pale gray, adding a touch of mystery and oppression to the whole picture.
Bai Di tried to use his mental strength, but when he gathered his strength, the gray cloud instantly expanded, as if to swallow everything. In the blink of an eye, his strength was exhausted.
He suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the hemp ball that was dragging human bones and chains around.
In fact, Ma Tuan didn't dare to go far, and only dared to wander where the light could reach.
Therefore, Bai Di saw him at a glance.
Ma Tuan suddenly saw something flash by in the darkness.
He immediately suppressed his fear, pretended nothing had happened, and walked steadily to Bai Di's side quickly.
Unfortunately, things are never as planned. As soon as he came to Bai Di, a faint green light suddenly appeared in the darkness. The next moment, three creatures that looked a bit like the night birds flew out.
The birds' bodies were an eerie black, as if stained by endless darkness. When their wings were spread out, they were over a meter long, and every feather shone with an eerie light.
Their claws and beaks were incredibly sharp, gleaming with a cold light, as if they could tear through anything with ease. Their shrill cries echoed in the air, sending chills down one's spine.
