Falling in Love to Escape the Original Book Plot [BL] Chapter 324: Ghost Village 1

"A ghost in broad daylight." Shen Xu gasped, and Yang Shi rolled his eyes.

"It’s a mortal ghost." Zhen Yuan observed.

Before long, another two ghosts entered the village from the south and five from the East.

Seeing this, Shen Xu and the others couldn’t help but frown.

"Sothing is attracting the ghosts to the village." Zhen Yuan said.

After all, mortals turned into ghosts because of unresolved grievances.

As a result, they tended to linger around the object of their obsession and rarely strayed far.

Considering that, it was strange that so many ghosts were leaving the object of their obsession to co to the village.

"Could the object of their grievance be in the village?" Feng Xue wondered.

"It’s possible." Shen Xu nodded with a solemn expression.

[There is a law pillar in the village.] Zhen Yuan transmitted to Shen Xu.

[A treasure?] The double asked, and Zhen Yuan nodded, but suddenly thought of sothing.

"Li Wenqiang..." He called but didn’t continue until Li Wenqiang looked at him.

"Do you feel different?" He asked.

Although Li Wenqiang had condensed a physical form, he was fundantally a soul body and not an actual human cultivator.

Considering that, Zhen Yuan worried that whatever was attracting the ghosts would also affect Li Wenqiang.

Unexpectedly, his guess was right on the money!

"Sothing is pulling towards the village." Li Wenqiang said and subconsciously frowned.

"Can you resist?" Shen Xu asked in a worried voice.

"For now." Li Wenqiang nodded but wasn’t certain.

For so reason, he slled sothing delicious, and the fragrance was coming from the village.

If possible, he wanted to enter the village and eat whatever was exuding that sll, but fortunately, he was still rational and knew not to do such a crazy thing.

"Brother Wenqiang is an immortal weapon." Yang Shi suddenly stated in a serious voice.

"Why..." Shen Xu started but suddenly stopped.

Indeed!

Li Wenqiang was an immortal soul and shouldn’t have been affected by sothing in the cultivation world.

Thinking of this, Shen Xu turned to Zhen Yuan.

"Ayuan, should we still enter?" He asked.

"You decide."

Hearing this, Shen Xu nodded, lowered his head, and fell into thought.

A mont later, he turned to the Ghost Village before speaking.

"Let’s enter." He said.

"Good." Zhen Yuan smiled, rubbing the double’s hair with a doting look.

The five entered the village after discussing so precautions.

However, after just one step, the five were tempted to run out.

"It’s bloody cold." Yang Shi cursed.

They were void refining realm cultivators, and cold weather was nothing to them.

However, the cold in the Ghost Village went through the skin and pierced the soul. Even Zhen Yuan’s early-stage level eight soul couldn’t withstand the cold, and he subconsciously shivered.

"We can’t stay here for too long." He said, and the others eagerly nodded.

"Follow the ghosts?" Shen Xu suggested, and the others agreed.

The village had hundreds of huts, but all were in a state of disrepair.

So had broken walls, others had collapsed roofs, more seed to have been destroyed in a fight, ..., and so forth.

After looking around, the five didn’t enter the huts.

Instead, they followed the ghosts and finally arrived at the edge of a well.

The well had a diater of about two tres, but none in the group could ascertain its depth.

"There is a delicious sll coming from the bottom of the well." Li Wenqiang said and subconsciously stepped forward.

However, Shen Xu had been keeping an eye on him and imdiately reacted, pulling him back from the ledge.

"Go to the space first." He said and sent Li Wenqiang to the space without waiting for his agreent.

"This village is creepy." Yang Shi frowned.

They originally thought that the village would have millions of ghosts.

However, there were none because all of them jumped into the well after entering the village.

"It can’t be so simple. There..." Shen Xu started, but before he could finish, Zhen Yuan held his arm and jumped back.

Seeing this, the others also reacted and flew backwards, just in ti to avoid a geyser of yellow liquid.

At the sa ti, a black figure flew out of the well and rushed towards the four.

From a casual glance, Shen Xu saw a skeleton dressed in a tattered black robe.

Most importantly, the skeleton held a scythe and seed ready to harvest their souls.

"Bloody hell." He cursed.

"It’s a nether fiend." Feng Xue shouted in a shocked voice.

Nether fiends were inhabitants of the underworld and couldn’t survive in the living world.

Knowing this, Feng Xue was extrely shocked to see a fiend in the Ghost Village.

However, now was not the ti to think about it.

If they allowed the fiend to touch them, they would imdiately be dragged to the underworld and would have no way to return to the living world.

"Of all the things..." She cursed and led the way to escape from the Ghost Village.

Fortunately, after exiting the Ghost Village, the fiend stopped following and was pulled back into the well.

"There is only one reason that a nether fiend can be in the living world." Yang Shi stated with a solemn expression.

"Mmh." Feng Xue nodded.

"Can soone explain what is going on?" Shen Xu asked in a frustrated voice.

Nether fiends were not ntioned in the original book, and Shen Xu had never read about them in any of the books he had encountered.

As a result, he was clueless about what Feng Xue and Yang Shi were talking about.

"Let’s find a safe place first." Zhen Yuan said and led the group further from the Ghost Village.

Soon after, they boarded their ship and activated several formations before entering the space.

In the peach garden, Shen Xu looked at Yang Shi and Feng Xue with a curious expression.

"I know nether fiends from my inherited mories." Feng Xue started, and Yang Shi nodded because he had similar mories.

"When living things die, they enter the underworld and are soon sent into the river of forgetfulness."
