Chapter 4 Demons Dance (Part 1)
I saw that the small path in the distance was still not far or near, as if we had walked very far, as if we had not moved at all. This... Although there is a big man Bu Yique next to me now, in this aimless dark world, no one will remain calm, and I gradually panic in my heart-
Bu Yique had said that there were nine-curve roads made of the evil spirits and souls nearby. I didn’t dare to speak loudly at this moment, so I had to whisper: “Yique! Why do I feel like we didn’t leave the place at all?”
"Impossible. Although these nine winding roads are out of reach, we always do..." Bu Yique's voice gradually became less and less loud, until he couldn't help but make a sound. I couldn't see what he was doing now, but I knew that he must have looked back too!
I was just in the moment of my despair, and Bu Yique's urgent voice suddenly sounded: "Seventh day of the lunar month! We have to leave quickly, oh no! We have to run quickly! Quickly! Otherwise, we are afraid we will never be able to get out of these nine-curve roads!"
"Dadada..."
Before I could ask why, I heard a burst of rapid footsteps and instantly left. I glared and secretly scolded this guy for being so fast!
Bu Yique ran away, so I naturally couldn't fall down. If his physique could be considered running, then I would probably fly when I ran. I heard Bu Yique's footsteps get closer and closer to me. This guy, I thought to myself, and immediately laughed: "Yique, kid, hurry up, otherwise we will never be able to get out of these nine-curve roads!"
After saying that, I was flying and flew behind me, and then I heard Bu Yique shouting breathlessly: "Slow down on the seventh day of the lunar month~~Wait for me~~~"
When Bu Yique caught up with me, we had been running for half an hour. At this time, I wanted to look back, but at this moment, Bu Yique seemed to understand what I was going to do, and suddenly said loudly: "Seventh day of the lunar month! Don't look back!"
I was stunned and asked, "Why?"
Bu Yique's voice became colder and colder: "I heard from Master that the Huangquan Road is a road without returning. Not only can you not go back, but you can't look back, otherwise you will never be able to walk out of the Nine Curves!"
My heart tightened, but fortunately I didn't look back in time so I thought about it, and nodded quickly and said, "So, let's speed up and run forward all the way, no matter what, how about it?"
"Yeah!" Bu Yique responded without hesitation, and after that he ran away again-
Hey! This guy! I smiled bitterly and rushed to chase...
Very tired! Really tired... We don't know how far we ran, or how long we ran, at the beginning, I could hear Bu Yique's panting crying and calling his parents, and finally I could only hear the sound of my heart beating to my throat. Although my whole body was sweating profusely, the cold air around me was extremely solemn. The hot sweat outside quickly became cold, and then I had the urge to get into my body. After this, not only could I not be able to consume my physical strength, but I was also extremely uncomfortable by the sweat.
"Oh, I can't do it anymore... I can't run anymore..." Bu Yique's voice gasped out of his mouth in a vague way, and his steps became obviously extremely slow.
I opened my mouth and gasped, and I didn't know where the courage came from. I grabbed Bu Yique's shoulder and said, "Yique, let's run harder. If we can't get out of here, we can rest without regrets even if we die!"
Bu Yique looked around and said, "My master and I have been here for two days, but we haven't seen such a big market town near Jiangjiazhuang?"
When he reminded me, I immediately turned around and looked in the direction I came. Sure enough, there was a dilapidated temple in the distance behind us, which seemed to be very similar to the dilapidated temple I walked into, but the way to the dilapidated temple was so dark that we had run a lot!
But this is nothing. At least I proved one thing. Bu Yique and I walked out of the nine-curve road and left the ruined temple. Bu Yique also looked back and breathed a sigh of relief. He said, "No wonder, this place is so far away from the ruined temple, and Jiangjiazhuang can't see the edge. We didn't look too far when we came, so we didn't discover the market town here, probably that's the case."
"Five-spice fried dough sticks~~"
"Seat oil tofu~~~"
"Bun~~The hot buns just come out~~~"
A burst of hawking sounds accompanied by a scent of food that rushes into my internal organs. I smacked my lips suddenly, and my stomach was drumming without any scruples again. There was finally food here, so my stomach, which I had been hungry for most of the day, could finally reward me. I was delighted and walked upstairs-
But I stopped halfway through the way. I couldn't say that I wouldn't be beaten to death. But after touching my whole body, there were only three small paper tickets that could be taken out. Each one was a one-cent banknote, three cents, and a bun cost at least five cents, but I could only buy half of this money. I just imagine how anyone was willing to sell half a steamed bun?
