Zhou Wen took out his phone and snapped a picture of the Boundary Stone. Indeed, he entered the loading interface.
"Zhou Wen, what are you doing? Get in the car, "Li Xuan shouted at Zhou Wen from inside the car.
"Take a look at this Boundary Stone. There seems to be something wrong with it," Zhou Wen said as he pointed at it.
Li Xuan and company alighted from the car and walked to the Boundary Stone. Li Xuan said when he saw it, "Is this a prank?"
An Sheng walked in front of the stone monument and touched it. Then, he used his hands to dig at the soil beneath the stone monument. Then, he frowned and said, "This stone monument wasn't buried recently. It should have been here for a long time. It doesn't look like a prank targeted at us."
"It's not a prank. Why would there be something like the Yin Yang Boundary Stone? Could it be that passing this Boundary Stone will really allow one to cross the Yin Yang World and reach the netherworld?" Li Xuan joked.
"I don't know if we'll enter the netherworld, but there's nothing wrong with being careful. Keep your eyes peeled." An Sheng carefully looked around but didn't find anything abnormal.
There was only one mountain path, and there were no dimensional zones nearby. It was impossible for An Sheng to turn back just because of the appearance of a Boundary Stone.
Zhou Wen said, "Ah Sheng, let's take another path. I feel that something's amiss up ahead. Could it be a newly appeared dimensional zone?"
"Alright." An Sheng nodded slightly. He also felt that something was amiss. However, if they were to take a detour, they would have to walk for more than ten hours.
He turned the car around and drove back the way he came. He drove to the fork at the foot of the mountain and went around to another mountain road. He continued to go forward from the other side. This road was a long detour, and it was not easy to walk on. The car could not drive very fast.
The road was filled with potholes and was especially difficult to traverse. The car vibrated violently as Zhou Wen took a look at his phone. The download had been completed and the Yin Yang World icon appeared on the phone's home screen.
However, Zhou Wen typically only played the Ant Nest dungeon in front of others. Now that he was in front of so many people, he couldn't open the Yin Yang World dungeon.
After driving for most of the day, Zhou Wen felt like he was about to fall apart from the shaking. Li Xuan and Ah Lai also felt a little uncomfortable. The three of them nearly fainted from the shaking.
Creak!
The sudden braking made the three of them sober up quite a bit, and their heads almost squeezed into the back of the front seat.
"Brother Sheng, what's going on?" Li Xuan asked.
"There's another Boundary Stone up ahead," An Sheng said as he opened the car door and walked out.
Zhou Wen and company walked down as well. Indeed, they saw another Boundary Stone beside the mountain path. On it were the words' Yin Yang Boundary Stone '. However, Zhou Wen didn't see the tiny palm symbol on the stone.
Is it that creepy? Li Xuan looked around. The sky was almost dark, and what he could see was very limited.
"Ah Sheng, is there another way?" Zhou Wen asked.
"No. The dimensional zones have cut off most of the paths. If we were to take another detour, it would take too long unless we don't pass through this mountainous region." An Sheng thought for a moment and said, "How about this? It's getting dark now, and there aren't any street lamps. It's not convenient to go back. Let's find a place to camp. Then, when the sky brightens, we'll go back to find an airport and take a plane back."
"Alright, let's do it that way." Zhou Wen felt that it was for the best. It wasn't wise to risk crossing the Yin Yang World's stone monument.
An Sheng took out simple tents and other tools from the car. He found an empty space by the side of the road and set up a tent. He even placed some warning posts to prevent other cars from hitting their tents.
Although the possibility of a car coming here was relatively low, An Sheng still took care of everything.
Li Xuan and Zhang Yuzhi chatted while Ah Lai lit a fire to prepare food.
Zhou Wen sat in the car and was just about to open the Yin Yang World dungeon to see what was inside when he suddenly heard Li Xuan's surprised voice. "What's that?"
Zhou Wen hurriedly got out of the car and saw Li Xuan pointing in the direction of the Yin Yang Boundary Stone with a look of surprise.
Zhou Wen looked over and saw a woman in red standing on the other side of the Yin Yang Boundary Stone.
To be precise, it was likely a woman wearing a red wedding dress. Zhou Wen had seen such clothes on television when he was young. He heard that it was a rather ancient tradition.
Nowadays, women would wear white wedding dresses when they got married. In the ancient times of the East District, white was something worn when a dead person died. One had to wear red when they got married.
Young ladies from rich families would wear embroidered red silk wedding dresses when they got married. They would also have a red veil over their heads. Only on the wedding night could the groom remove the bride's red veil.
The woman standing on the other side of the Yin Yang Boundary Stone was like a red-dressed bride in a television drama. Her head was also covered with a red veil. She stood behind the stone monument as though she was looking at them.
"Who's playing tricks over there?" Perhaps it was because the trembling Zhang Yuzhi had triggered the secretion of Li Xuan's male hormones, but he was shockingly bold as he shouted at the woman in red behind the Yin Yang Boundary Stone.
The woman in red didn't answer and continued standing there motionlessly. Although there was a red cloth covering her head, Zhou Wen and company felt that she was staring at them.
Seeing that the woman in red didn't answer, Li Xuan was somewhat angry. He summoned a Legendary black-eyed leopard and ordered it to pounce at the woman in red.
An Sheng, Zhou Wen, and company stared at the black-eyed leopard and saw it quickly cross the stone monument. It leaped into the air and pounced at the woman in red with its sharp claws.
What happened next immediately made the five of them widen their eyes as their scalps tingle.
The black-eyed leopard passed through the woman in red's body as though the woman's body was just an illusion.
Don't tell me we really encountered a ghost? Li Xuan felt a little guilty when he saw this scene.
He wasn't afraid of real bullets, but no matter how strong he was, he still felt a little uncomfortable encountering ghosts.
Just as Li Xuan was about to order the black-eyed leopard to continue attacking, he saw the woman in red move. Only then did everyone notice that the woman's feet weren't touching the ground at all. She had been floating in the air the entire time, and they could clearly see the pair of red embroidered shoes on her feet.
Due to the Boundary Stone's obstruction, the few of them had imagined that she was standing. Now that they saw this scene, they had the urge to turn around and flee. Even Zhou Wen was no exception.
When he was young, he had heard his grandfather tell him many ghost stories. One of them was the story of a ghost bride. He thought to himself, Don't tell me I really encountered a ghost bride?
When he was young, his grandfather had told him the story of a ghost bride. It scared him so much that he didn't dare sleep the entire night. The moment he fell asleep, a red-dressed female ghost in a wedding dress would come to claim his life. It was a childhood nightmare.
