In the dark room, only the light bulb on the ceiling flickered weakly. It flickered from time to time, as if the voltage was unstable.
A wooden box was placed in the middle of the room, emitting waves of chilly air.
Suddenly, the wooden box vibrated, as if someone was knocking on it from inside.
With a bang, the cover on the wooden box was pushed open, and a woman slowly climbed out. It was the female cultivator who had said that she would protect Zhou Bai, Song Zhen.
She felt dizzy, and the place in front of her was extremely unfamiliar. There was a faint stench in the air.
The cement floor was covered in filth, and the dim light barely illuminated the space around the wooden board. Further away, it looked like darkness, like a bottomless ocean.
"Where am I?"
She wanted to check her body, but her expression suddenly changed. She found that her primordial spirit had been sealed, and she could not use any primordial spirit power. Her body was also sore and powerless, as if she had been drugged.
"Damn it," Song Zhen recalled her past experience, "Sky Demon, we were captured by the Sky Demon. Miao Xian, Liu Ruonan … How is everyone? "
She looked up, and where there was light, there was only her and the wooden box.
Looking at the dark space outside the light, there seemed to be clouds rolling in the deep darkness.
"I can't stay here forever." Song Zhen gathered her courage and looked at the pitch-black darkness, trying to walk out.
As soon as she took a step forward, one of her feet left the illumination of the light above her head. Song Zhen felt a cold and gloomy wind blowing on her leg. That damp and cold feeling spread from her leg to her body. It was as if an invisible hand was touching her.
The sudden strange feeling gave Song Zhen a fright. She immediately retreated backward and stared at the darkness in front of her with her eyes wide open.
However, the darkness was like layers of ink. Other than the darkness itself, she could see nothing else.
"Calm down."
"Don't be afraid."
Song Zhen swallowed her saliva, trying to calm down, and then walked out. Suddenly, she seemed to hear something in the darkness.
Swish swish swish swish swish swish …
It sounded like something was rubbing against the ground, and Song Zhen looked at the darkness warily.
"What … is coming?"
Cold sweat gradually soaked her hair. Listening to the sounds in the darkness, it seemed that more and more things were gradually waking up, making more and more rustling sounds.
She looked at the only wooden box under the light and herself, and suddenly a bad guess came to her mind.
"Those Sky Demon sent me here on purpose?"
"Could it be that they want to feed me to something?"
Terrifying and dark thoughts kept appearing in her mind.
Song Zhen raised his head to look at the light bulb on the ceiling. Suddenly, he realized something. "In the darkness, wouldn't I be the most conspicuous?"
Thinking of this, she felt as if there were countless pairs of eyes spying on her in the darkness, causing her to have goosebumps all over her body.
"We can't continue under the light."
Thinking of this, Song Zhen no longer cared about the strange feeling in the darkness and stepped into the darkness.
An eerie coldness enveloped her entire body in an instant, and she found it difficult to breathe.
Song Zhen persisted and walked forward. She thought to herself, "As long as I keep walking forward, I will be able to reach the border of this space. Then, I should be able to find the exit by following the border."
As Song Zhen continued to walk forward, the light behind her got further and further away. The cold feeling grew stronger and stronger, and the rustling sound in the darkness continued to ring.
Suddenly, a creaking sound came from behind Song Zhen. She could not help but think, "Is that the sound of the wooden box? Did someone touch the wooden box? "
Song Zhen turned her head and saw that under the light, long black shadows were shrouding the top, left, and front of the wooden box. The black shadows kept twisting and shrinking. Suddenly, they raised their heads at the same time, and it seemed that there were a few pale faces looking at Song Zhen.
When Song Zhen wanted to see what they were, there was a click, and the light went out.
Cold sweat instantly soaked Song Zhen's back. There was only one thought in her mind.
"There are monsters!
"Those Sky Demon really want to feed me to the monsters!
"They are feeding me to the monsters!
Song Zhen felt her legs turn to jelly. She could not help but lie on the ground and continue to crawl forward.
She was careful and light, and she kept reminding herself, "Gently, gently … Don't make a sound."
She felt that she was getting used to crawling in the darkness. The rustling sound behind her was getting further and further away from her.
Suddenly, her palm hit a wall. "What's going on? Now, I just need to follow the wall … "
Just as Song Zhen started to crawl along the wall, there seemed to be a cold wind blowing in the darkness. Someone seemed to be calling out to her in the wind.
Song Zhen suddenly stopped. She tried to listen to the voice, but she could not hear it clearly.
"Who is calling?
"Is it those monsters?
"Or is there someone else here?"
Song Zhen gritted her teeth and ignored the call in the wind. She continued to crawl along the wall. She only felt that the voice was getting clearer and closer to her.
"Song … Zhen …"
"Song Zhen …"
"Save me …"
Song Zhen's expression changed. She seemed to hear someone calling her name. Her body was slightly stiff, and she tried her best to move faster.
However, the voice was getting closer and closer. Accompanied by the rustling sound, it was like it was chasing after her.
Song Zhen could not help but turn back to look, but in the thick darkness, she could not see anything. She could only feel that the voice was getting closer and closer. An indescribable feeling of oppression appeared in her heart.
The stench in the air seemed to be thickening, and the darkness around her seemed to be tumbling like it was hiding something.
Song Zhen sped up again. She seemed to crawl faster and faster in the dark, and the more she crawled, the easier it became. The cry for help gradually weakened, and the rustling sound also disappeared.
Just as Song Zhen felt that she was getting safer, the rustling sound came from not far behind her.
"Something is following me?!"
Song Zhen used all her strength to rush forward, but the voice behind her was getting clearer and clearer. The distance between her and the voice was getting closer.
Suddenly, Song Zhen felt a gap. It seemed to be a door?
She grabbed at the gap with all her might, trying to open the door. Her fingers became stiff in the long darkness, and the voice behind her continued to get closer and closer.
Finally, with a soft click, Song Zhen pulled open the door in the darkness. Blinding light shone in, and she rushed out. She turned around and wanted to close the door.
However, it was like her hands were powerless. No matter how hard she pulled, the door would not budge. There seemed to be a shadow rushing over in the darkness. Something was chasing after her.
"Ah!"
Song Zhen opened her mouth in panic. She bit on the door handle and tried to close it.
At that moment, a black shadow rushed over in the darkness. It looked like it was going to reach out from the gap in the next moment.
Bang!
The door was finally closed, and Song Zhen collapsed to the ground. She listened to the continuous knocking on the door before it slowly faded away.
"Is it gone?" She turned around and realized that she was in a corridor.
She walked forward and realized that the doors and walls around her seemed to be especially tall. The bricks on the ground were rough, and it made her feel slightly uncomfortable.
"This place is so tall."
After turning a corner, a glass wall suddenly appeared before her.
Behind the glass, she saw a woman with a pale face crawling on the ground. Her hands and feet had almost shrunk to the size of a baby's, and they were wriggling like a snake.
