Chapter 63 The bell rings
The walls of the backyard are not high, and with Zhao Yijiu's skills, it is not difficult to turn them in quietly.
He did the same.
Even though he didn't carry any weapons, he was still reckless and sneaked into the area where the boss of this mission was located alone.
Zhao Yijiu knew that those who were busy in the front yard had not thought about the importance of the back yard. His current behavior was no different from Luo Xiangfeng. In the eyes of others, they were the "cannon fodder" who could only take the lead.
But it doesn't matter. Correspondingly, he will enjoy a lot of convenience when he acts alone.
In the darkness, he landed like a cat.
The weeds under his feet were stomped down by him, and a few small pieces of gravel rolled away uncontrollably, but this slight sound should not alarm the old man who seemed to be dying.
——If the old man is a human.
Zhao Yijiu hugged the old man and dared to fight with him, and waited for a while before he was sure that nothing had discovered him.
The overall layout of the backyard is much stranger than the front.
Several houses are scattered in the yard in a very messy layout, and wild flowers and weeds in the yard grow freely. On the basis of the land, some places are paved with simple roads with stone slabs.
The place where he climbed over the wall was quite close to the courtyard gate, but when he came in, he was blocked by a house. Silver bells were hung on the four eaves of the house, which seemed to be very heavy, because when the wind blew, the bells just shook slightly without overflowing.
After looking at the bell for a few more times, Zhao Yijiu carefully walked around the house. After walking a corner, his vision suddenly became clear.
He saw a sudden white jade coffin placed on the largest open space in the backyard.
It was really abrupt, because there was nothing on the open space, only the white jade coffin was placed in the center, and no matter who came, he would find it at a glance.
Judging from the vague outline, it seems that it is the garrison goods that disappeared with Yu Xing.
The coffin is here, where is Yu Xing?
Zhao Yijiu's heartbeat was beat faster and she instinctively felt the danger here.
There seemed to be no one around him, but he had the illusion that there were people staring at him everywhere.
He even wondered if Yu Xing was lying in the coffin?
Anyway, you have to get closer and take a look first.
Zhao Yijiu did not go directly, but held her breath and tried to find out the old man's location.
He listened with his ears and found that the air in the backyard seemed to be blocked by something, which was extremely stagnant, making it difficult for him to confirm the direction of others based on his hearing alone. He had to search for one room at a time. After passing most empty houses, he heard the breathing inside by the walls of one room.
The Yizhuang was so broken that even in the backyard, most of the windows in the house were broken. Zhao Yijiu took advantage of the hole in the pane and looked into the house.
Surprisingly, he saw nothing.
No, it should be said... his gaze was blocked by something.
When Zhao Yijiu realized that the room was pitch black and there was no outline of the item, he froze for a moment, then his whole body was tense like a furry leopard, and multiple thoughts flashed in just one second.
He was seen.
The old man, or something, had already pressed his eyes on the hole before he approached the house and looked at him through it.
Should he flash, or should he stay still, or stretch out his finger to poke the eyeball blind?
Opportunities were fleeting, from Zhao Yijiu realizing that the darkness behind the pane came from a person's eyes to his body being wrapped in a cold feeling, the moisture in the air seemed to be squeezing towards him, trying to suffocate him... but only a few breaths.
Zhao Yijiu did not hesitate too much, gave up the idea of poking the eyeball into pieces, and turned around and fled.
Obviously, "being seen" is a condition of death!
If he stayed there, he would definitely suffocate. At least he would leave the eyeball's line of sight first!
After making a decision, he almost instantly lowered his body and flipped into the blind spot of the pane, then pressed against the wall and continued to carefully judge the breathing and heartbeat in the house.
The things inside moved.
As if dissatisfied with his disappearance in sight, the strange and light footsteps slowly rang out, and he walked from the window to the door.
Then, a squeak.
The door of the house is open.
Almost at the same time, the bells hanging on all four corners of the house suddenly rang wildly!
This kind of bell sound is different from the bells owned by the saint. Each beat is rapid and sharp, as if reminding, warning, and the harsh bell sound keeps drilling into the eardrums, shaking a drum to touch people's heartbeat.
Zhao Yijiu, whose body belongs to the "dog god", felt great danger when she stood up. Her hair suddenly rose behind her. Her body's instinct told him to "run quickly", but the evil spirit's temperament was clamoring, "Tsk, what, let me see it quickly."
In fact, Zhao Yijiu was also worried, he wanted to see what that thing looked like.
The footsteps of "it" are different from those of the old man, lighter, but slower.
"It" seems to have wisdom. After opening the door, he walked straight towards the place where Zhao Yijiu was hiding.
Zhao Yijiu knew that he could not stay where he was. He just walked to where he was in front of this thing, and the other party could not have known that he was here.
Damn deduction actually blocked his shadow ability, otherwise there would be no need to be such a trouble!
He cursed the deduction system in his heart, and he mobilized all his control over this body and quietly moved.
The strange layout of the backyard became a cover instead. Zhao Yijiu turned a few corners of the wall and found that the ringtone was following the thing. Wherever the thing went, the bells in the room were triggered.
For a moment, the entire backyard was filled with impatience, which brought some fault tolerance to his actions.
So, is the backyard layout targeting this thing that walks out of the house?
Then, the meaning of the existence of the backyard is probably not to hide, but to suppress...
While making a judgment, Zhao Yijiu consciously turned to the back of the thing and looked at it.
A pure white...excessively slender thing floated on the ground.
It seems inaccurate to say this, because the thing's legs were still on the ground, and he was unfamiliar and strangely straight forward, as if he had no knee joints.
The foot, which is half smaller than a human, is just an oval shape, and its size... is in line with the footprints of the "children" outside the camp!
Zhao Yijiu only saw the other person's back and narrowed his eyes.
What exactly is this... Will Yu Xing be in the room where it came out? No, it must be no. The steps and "breaths" he heard were all from this pure white monster, and there was no one in the room.
"call……"
Just as he was observing the thing, a breath suddenly came from behind him.
A cold feeling swept over.
Zhao Yijiu's fingers trembled, and she did not turn her head, but her whole body turned over.
There is no one behind him.
There is no ghost.
"call……"
However, an exhalation still came from behind him.
Zhao Yijiu felt bad, and suddenly remembered something and looked at the white jade coffin that he had noticed before.
Under the scattered moonlight, the white jade coffin opened at some point, and the empty darkness spread in the half opening.
No... If the white thing came out of the house, then what was behind him...?
"call……"
