Chapter 331: Evil Ghost Village
The two took the elevator back to the bottom floor of the building and walked out of the door of "Blue Sky Company".
The night wind was a little cold, but Lin Qingyao felt that Chen Yile didn't seem to intend to leave immediately.
"Aren't we leaving?" Lin Qingyao asked in a low voice in confusion.
Chen Yile looked up at the office window on the second floor, his eyes sharp, as if he could see through the glass and see everything inside the building.
The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and his voice lowered a bit: "There's something wrong with Zhang Xiaoyuan. I think she's lying to us."
When Lin Qingyao heard this, she was startled and nodded silently without asking any more questions.
She knew that Chen Yile's intuition was always accurate. If he said there was a problem, it would definitely not be groundless.
They found a secluded corner to hide in, watching for the building's exit.
Not long after, they saw Zhang Xiaoyuan coming out. She looked hurried and seemed to be holding something in her hand. She walked straight towards a black car parked on the side of the road.
"Look, here they come." Chen Yile lowered his voice.
Zhang Xiaoyuan got into the car, started the engine, and quickly drove away from the building.
When Chen Yile saw this, he hurriedly pulled Lin Qingyao up and said, "Let's go, stop a car and follow them."
They stopped a taxi, and Chen Yile said to the driver, "Master, follow the black car in front. I have something to check. Please!"
The taxi driver looked at the two of them. Although he had some doubts in his heart, Chen Yile's attitude was firm, and coupled with the promised extra money, he agreed.
The car slowly followed the black car in the night, left the city center, and gradually drove towards the more remote suburbs.
"The closer we get, the more something feels wrong." Lin Qingyao looked outside through the car window. The surrounding lights became sparse, and only the vague shadows of the mountains emerged under the night sky.
The black car ahead was heading towards a remote mountainous area. The taxi driver looked at the two people and couldn't help asking, "Who are you? What are you doing there? There's an abandoned village further ahead. It's a filthy place, everyone calls it 'The Ghost Village.' You're not going there to visit a haunted place, are you?"
Chen Yile's thoughts turned, and he said calmly, "We are reporters investigating a supernatural incident. Don't worry, Master, you won't be shortchanged on the extra money."
Although the driver was skeptical about this explanation, seeing Chen Yile's firm attitude and the temptation of money, he stopped asking questions and continued driving to follow.
Finally, the black car in front stopped in front of a deserted village. Zhang Xiaoyuan got out of the car, looked around, and walked into the village carrying a small bag.
"We're here. This is the Ghost Village. Are you really planning to go in?" the driver asked uneasily.
"Yes, it's right here. Thank you, master." Chen Yile paid the fare and gave a few hundred yuan more.
As soon as the driver got the money, he started the car and drove back without looking back, as if he didn't want to stay any longer.
Chen Yile looked at the taxi that was rapidly moving away and couldn't help shaking his head. "This place seems to be quite famous. Even the driver was scared like this."
Lin Qingyao clenched the sword in her hand, her expression serious: "There is a strong yin energy in this village. I can feel that this place is not ordinary."
"Let's go in and take a look. Zhang Xiaoyuan must have some unspeakable secrets here." Chen Yile's eyes were deep and determined.
The two approached the village entrance. In the faint moonlight, they could see the abandoned houses, dilapidated doors and windows, and walls covered with vines.
The whole village seemed to have been abandoned for years, with only the whisper of the wind.
"Do you smell it?" Lin Qingyao suddenly said, frowning.
"Hmm, a foul smell, and a faint smell of blood." Chen Yile nodded with a serious expression.
"It seems this place is more dangerous than we thought. Zhang Xiaoyuan must have some connection with this place."
The two looked at each other, nodded silently, gestured to each other, and slowly sneaked into the depths of the village.
They walked quietly into the first house in the village. In the dim light, the items in the house were rotten and it seemed that no one had lived there for a long time.
Chen Yile listened carefully, and after confirming that there was no other movement, he continued to move deeper into the village.
"Over there." Lin Qingyao pointed to a faint light. The light was flickering in a big house in the center of the village, and it was extremely dazzling.
"It seems that she is there." Chen Yile nodded and clenched the talisman paper in his hand, ready to deal with any emergency at any time.
As they approached the big house, the atmosphere became increasingly solemn.
The moonlight was blocked by dark clouds, and the whole village fell into an oppressive darkness. The stench around them became stronger and stronger, as if reminding them that danger was approaching step by step.
"Are you ready?" Chen Yile stopped and turned to look at Lin Qingyao.
Lin Qingyao nodded, and the long sword emitted a faint blue light. It was obviously filled with spiritual power and was ready to face any enemy.
The two took a deep breath and slowly approached the door of the big house.
There was a dead silence in the air, with only the sound of their heartbeats echoing in their ears.
"Now that we're entering the village, we have to be careful about everything we do." Chen Yile whispered, then reached out and pushed open the old wooden door.
Chen Yile gently pushed open the shabby wooden door, and the door hinges made a creaking sound, as if sounding some ominous omen in the eerie silence.
He and Lin Qingyao looked at each other, and both of them tightened their weapons in their hands and walked into the house quietly.
Dim light streamed in through the broken windows, and the room was filled with a sickening stench of decay.
Tables and chairs were tilted to one side and the ground was littered with rubble and broken items, as if it had experienced a sudden devastation.
However, the most eye-catching thing was that there was a huge shadow in the corner of the room, slowly crawling.
"It's not Zhang Xiaoyuan." Chen Yile's heart tightened and he reminded in a low voice.
The shadow gradually revealed its full appearance, and a terrifying evil ghost appeared before them.
It has a huge body, twisted limbs, skin as black as charcoal, and exudes an extremely strong evil aura.
What was disgusting was that its sharp teeth were biting a huge stone madly, and the stone made a "crunching" sound in its mouth, as if it could eat anything.
The evil ghost suddenly stopped moving, sensed the arrival of outsiders, and suddenly raised his head, staring at Chen Yile and Lin Qingyao with his blood-red eyes.
It let out a low growl, its tongue lolling out of its mouth, licking its sharp teeth, as if it was considering how to devour the two invaders in front of it.
"What the hell is that?" Lin Qingyao was stunned and quickly drew the long sword from her waist, pointing the tip of the sword at the evil ghost.
