As soon as he entered the crack, Wei Yao felt an icy chill surrounding him, and the surrounding light dimmed in an instant. There was no excess at all. It was like switching from day to night all at once.

Wei Yao couldn't help but frown slightly, and when he looked up, he couldn't feel any light either. The top of his head seemed to be blocked by something, dividing the cracks and the outside of the cracks into two completely different worlds.

Wei Yao took a tentative breath, then held his breath, and carefully felt the breath inhaled into his body. When he found that there was nothing strange, he took out a fire stick from his arms, and after lighting it, he was surprised to find that although this

The space within the crack almost blocked all the light outside the crack, but the surrounding area seemed to be clearer and more transparent. The area covered by the light of the fire was nearly three times larger than normal.

Wei Yao glanced around and found that although the area of ​​​​light had expanded a lot, the surroundings were still dark. It could be seen that there was still an open space around him. He quickly placed the fire breaker on his shoulder and slowly moved toward the crack.

descending deeply.

After descending about twenty or thirty meters, a burst of bright yellow light came from the soles of his feet. Wei Yao understood that he was about to reach the ground. However, Wei Yao did not go down directly. Instead, he carefully threw a stone towards the ground.

Then there was a series of crisp sounds.

Wei Yao couldn't help but be a little surprised. According to his estimate, the crack had not seen sunlight all year round, so it should be moist and soft soil, but judging from the sound of the rocks colliding, it should be a whole piece of rock underneath.

Slowly loosening the rope in his hand, Wei Yao carefully stepped on the ground. When the weight of his whole body was put down and nothing abnormal happened, his heart finally felt at ease for a short time.

Wei Yao was not in a hurry to search the crack area. Instead, he looked at his hands carefully, then looked up at the rope he climbed down. Just as he was sliding down, he felt something in his heart.

There was a hint of doubt. He felt that there seemed to be some flesh scraps and blood stains on the rope. The blood stains on his palms were the best evidence.

And judging from the flesh scraps and blood stains, it didn't look like it was left by a single person. It seemed that this rope was often climbed by people. And what he had learned from the villagers before was that except for the magician, there was no one.

Speaking of other people coming here, could it be that all these traces were left by that magician?

But on second thought, Wei Yao denied this speculation. Let's not say what the mysterious magician was climbing up and down for. However, the blood stains left behind would at least wear off the entire palm of his hand.

Only when there is light will the state be like this.

In addition, in the era they lived in, it was not difficult to get a hemp rope, but it was extremely rare to get a hemp rope as thick as an arm and as long as twenty or thirty meters, especially since this hemp rope was very obvious.

It was soaked in tung oil several times and then dried. Although it is indeed unsatisfactory in terms of fire protection, in terms of toughness and anti-corrosion, the effect is indeed extremely obvious.

Even before he came here, he would never have imagined that such a crack would exist, and that this crack would be as deep as twenty or thirty meters.

How did the magician who left this rope predict beforehand and prepare such a rope that was almost tailor-made for this crack?

For a moment, the identity of this magician and the real reason why he came here made Wei Yao feel a little alert. What kind of secrets were hidden in this crack also filled Wei Yao's heart with curiosity.

.

With the help of the light from the fire, Wei Yao walked forward slowly while looking around. He found that there were smooth and neat rock walls on both sides of the bottom of the crack, and in the middle was a narrow passage about four or five meters wide that extended forward.

.

According to the previous villagers' accounts, this huge crack should have been caused by the earth dragon turning over before, so the straight and smooth rock walls on both sides can be explained, but the flat rocky ground under his feet did not feel like a natural formation at all.

It's more like it was built artificially.

If this is really the case, then before the earth dragon turned over, this place was completely built underground. Who built it? What is the purpose of building it? Where is its entrance and what is its destination?

Place? For a time, a series of questions poured into Wei Yao's mind.

"who?"

At this moment, an almost inaudible sound fell into Wei Yao's ears. Judging from the place where the sound came from, it should be about ten meters in front of him on the left.

You must know that Wei Yao has inherited the power of the Ghost King at this time. Although his sight is affected to a certain extent here, his hearing and perception abilities are hardly affected. He can only get close to about ten meters in front of him.

Being discovered shows that it is by no means simple.

Wei Yao instantly entered a state of alert, and at the same time, he suddenly rushed towards the direction of the sound. What was originally like a ball of light under the light of Huozhezi turned into a thick beam of light and caught a cold.

A long and narrow area, at the same time, a slightly embarrassed figure was also exposed to the light again and again.

Judging from the clothes he was wearing, he was very similar to the nearby villagers, but he was obviously much poorer. His clothes were full of holes, his pants seemed to be torn in strands, and his messy hair was full of dust.

, at first glance, they look just like many refugees fleeing.

The most horrifying thing is that the flesh on this person's face has rotted large areas, the exposed arms and legs have white bones, the teeth that have lost their lips, and the deep hollow eye sockets all clearly show this.

He is not a living person.

Wei Yao frowned slightly, not because of the horrifying scene in front of him. As the ghost king, he had seen too many similar things. With just one glance, he already understood that the person in front of him should have been killed by evil spirits after death.

Possessed, and the kind that crawls out of the tomb after death.

What made him feel a little puzzled was that usually this kind of situation similar to corpse fraud was because on the one hand the corpse was already stiff, and on the other hand because the fit between the ghost and the body was low, the movements were relatively stiff.

However, although the man in front of him looked very miserable, the client said that if we judged him solely from his actions, he was even more agile than most living people. Otherwise, he would never have been discovered until he was about ten meters in front of Wei Yao.

.

"Who are you?"

Wei Yao did not take action immediately, but asked in an extremely strange voice. Although the figure in front of him was not ordinary, people like Wei Yao who have been dealing with ghosts all year round still chose the conversation carefully. After all,

Not all ghosts have evil thoughts. One of his responsibilities as the Ghost King is to eliminate evil, and the same is true when facing ghosts.

This voice was much deeper and more ethereal than when he spoke normally. It felt as if he was speaking without using his vocal cords at all. This is a unique way of talking to a possessed person after death.

If we use a modern scientific explanation, the frequency of sound that ghosts can feel is different from the frequency of ordinary people. Therefore, after death, the possessed person's soul and body are not tightly connected.

Therefore, the frequencies he is most sensitive to are also different, so he uses this specific audio frequency to communicate. But obviously, people at that time did not understand things about frequencies, but they could still find similar methods, and they had to

It's amazing.

"Death to the intruder!"

The answer was hoarse and vague. On the one hand, it seemed to be rubbing the vocal cords to the greatest extent, and on the other hand, it seemed like there was something in the mouth. I don’t know if it was caused by the current body decay or other reasons.

, but the purpose of the visitor is already obvious.

Knowing that he was an enemy rather than a friend, Wei Yao didn't think too much. He quickly made a seal with his left hand and swept it from his left eye. His originally dark eyes were suddenly covered with a faint green light, and the yin and yang eye state was activated directly.

This yin and yang eye is far inferior to the Chen family's ghost eye, but it can also distinguish the state of ghosts.

At this time, in Wei Yao's sight, the person in front of him was surrounded by black energy, and a light green light was faintly visible between his eyebrows. The black energy around his body obviously showed that this body had been dead for a long time, and the light green light between his eyebrows was

The phenomenon of ghosts occupying Niwan Palace.

If this body is a living person, then the soul needs to be expelled from the Niwan Palace through magic, and then the possessed person can regain consciousness. But for the situation at hand, there is no need to go to such trouble at all, as long as the Niwan Palace is directly removed

It can be solved by crushing it. At that time, the ghost that has lost the support of the physical body, no matter how powerful it is, will be greatly reduced in the power it can exert in this world.

But it was obvious that Wei Yao's plan didn't stop there. With a flash of light in his eyes, he suddenly appeared in front of the man as if he had teleported. Even though the possessed man had shown extraordinary abilities before.

Although he was flexible, he still couldn't react. He stood there in a daze, and even his empty eye sockets showed a hint of surprise.

At the same time, a dagger with a dark gold handle, a dark blade, and a faint glow of blue-purple light appeared in Wei Yao's hand like a magic trick, and struck the man's neck horizontally with lightning speed.

.

As a dark black sword light mixed with traces of green-purple light and shadow flashed, Wei Yao's big hand grabbed the man's disheveled and dusty hair, and gently lifted the half-corrupted head in his hand
