1711 Illusion
Chi Shuyan was also stunned when she suddenly appeared in the middle of nowhere. Following her intuition, she started walking up a slope. After walking for more than ten minutes, she suddenly saw a dilapidated temple in the distance.
She simply followed her intuition and walked forward. Soon, she arrived at the temple. It wasn’t much different from an ordinary one, but it was very rundown and there was nothing special about it.
The only thing which stood out was that as soon as she reached the temple entrance, it felt like something was drawing her inside. Chi Shuyan subconsciously became a little vigilant, but when she looked at the eerie black void that was the entrance of the temple, her mind inexplicably went blank.
Her wariness inexplicably disappeared without a trace. Not only wasn’t, she felt a sense of familiarity and reverence for this dilapidated temple, and was in a hurry to go in and worship. She had been about to turn around and walk away immediately, but even her two feet moved toward the temple of their own accord.
As Chi Shuyan got closer to the temple entrance, the strange sense of crisis in her heart grew stronger, and her right eyelid twitched; the temple was like a devouring monster. Just as she stopped at the door, deep in thought, a captivating and seductive voice suddenly came from inside the temple. “Come in! Come in! Come in quickly!”
If one listened carefully, it was an unpleasant-sounding voice. One moment, it sounded like a baby’s voice, and the next, it sounded like the husky voice of a woman that was dull and rough. At that moment, however, it sounded like heavenly music to the ear, and Chi Shuyan couldn’t help but walk inside.
When she came back to her senses, she realized that she had already arrived at the temple hall, and the strange voice had disappeared without a trace.
Chi Shuyan took the moment to examine the interior of the temple. It was rundown on the outside and even shabbier on the inside. It contained a few Buddha statues which appeared to have been deliberately destroyed; either all that remained was one hand, with the rest of the body shattered, or the body was left with no hand. There were no offerings on the table on the side, only dirt.
Compared with the badly damaged Buddha statues, the brand new coffin on the side was very conspicuous. Chi Shuyan hadn’t noticed earlier, but now, she saw that it wasn’t the usual color of a coffin. She didn’t know what wood it was made of, but it was a bit red in color.
Who knew where the wooden lid of the coffin had gone. It was empty inside, while densely packed faces had been drawn all over the outside, each one hideous and terrifying; anyone cowardly or trypophobic would really jump in fright.
Chi Shuyan subconsciously frowned when she saw the coffin, and the same captivating voice rang out in her mind again. She couldn’t help but be a little vigilant, but her feet still moved beyond her control toward the coffin.
Chi Shuyan felt that this scene was a little familiar. Where had she seen or heard of it before? However, no matter how she racked her brain, her mind was blank. The wariness in her heart was swept away again when she stared at the coffin, and there was only inexplicable familiarity and reverence in her eyes. At some point, her eyelids grew heavier and heavier, making her want to immediately crawl into the coffin and lie down for a good rest.
Yes, she wanted to ‘rest’ properly!
On the other side, Feng Yuanlin waited in the car for a long time, but there was no movement from Shuyan. Instead, Zhenbai called and asked, “Where’s my wife?”
As soon as Feng Yuanlin heard Zhenbai’s deep and intimidating voice, he subconsciously cringed. His friend was smart enough to guess his wife’s whereabouts; Feng Yuanlin didn’t dare hide it from Zhenbai. Besides, he didn’t have the confidence to keep troubling Shuyan to subdue evil creatures. He immediately gave a rough account of the matter and the address.
Feng Yuanlin was originally prepared for Zhenbai’s harsh words, but who would have thought that the other party would just say, “Okay,” and then hang up.
Ten minutes later, a familiar car stopped next to his. The window of the black car rolled down, and Feng Yuanlin immediately saw Zhenbai’s familiar face and sharp eyes.
Zhenbai had driven over himself.
Feng Yuanlin didn’t expect Zhenbai to come over immediately without a word. He hurriedly got out of the car, walked over to Zhenbai’s car, and knocked on the window. When Zhenbai’s cold and sharp gaze swept over him, Feng Yuanlin hurriedly said, “Zhenbai, your wife is inside. Shuyan is capable, so she’s definitely fine.”
Although he said that, he was still a little worried.
Qi Zhenbai, who was sitting in the driver’s seat, didn’t speak from beginning to end. However, his intimidating aura pressed down on Feng Yuanlin, who was so uncomfortable and almost didn’t dare meet Zhenbai’s gaze.
Who asked him to be so uncertain and to just sit comfortably in the car? Wasn’t it someone else’s wife who was on the front line?
Feng Yuanlin chuckled with a stiff face and immediately explained, “Shuyan and I recently sensed some evil in this neighborhood, so Shuyan came to investigate. Why don’t we go in and take a look together?”
Qi Zhenbai still didn’t speak. He placed his right hand on the Buddhist prayer beads on his left wrist. His eyes were cold and sharp as he glanced in the direction of the neighborhood. In the next second, he suddenly pulled off the Buddhist prayer beads on his wrist. Immediately, a huge baleful aura surged uncontrollably. Not long after, a sharp and muffled howl suddenly rang out in the neighborhood.
At the same time, Chi Shuyan, who had just stepped into the coffin, immediately regained her senses. If she remembered correctly, Yang Ji and the others had said that they had entered a rundown temple and lay down in a coffin. If she wasn’t wrong, this should be an illusion created by that thing.
Chi Shuyan immediately got out of the coffin. Suddenly, a coffin lid fell from the sky, as if it wanted to trap her inside the coffin. Chi Shuyan’s face didn’t change. She bit her index finger, and a golden light flashed as she shouted, “Break!”
