C6 To get through this ordeal

But the two of us bravely went in, even though we were both afraid. After entering, the chilly wind from the back mountain continued to blow, causing my body to tremble violently once again.

This was the first time I had entered the back mountain. Within the back mountain, there were many dense trees, but what was surprising was that these trees were all relatively withered, withered, and didn't have a single leaf on them. All of them were lonely branches that swayed along with the cold wind, and when I looked forward, I could see many eerie graves coldly standing in the middle of the forest.

Could this be the Ghost Flame?

If it was in the past, I would definitely have turned around and run away. But now, I am not fighting alone, I have Chen Xiao by my side, and it is even more impossible for me to abandon Chen Xiao at such a time, so even if it is to a certain extent, I have already reached my limit in fear. In order to protect Chen Xiao, I also have to overcome the so-called fear in my heart.

But at this time, when I turned my head, I saw that Chen Xiao was already scared, and she had already tightly closed her eyes. I tried to comfort her, wrapped my arms around her, and then patted her, and said: "It's fine, don't be scared. Look at those blue fireworks, they're so pretty. "

Although I also don't want to believe that ghost fire is a firework, but at this moment, besides comforting, what else can I do?

Chen Xiao also slowly opened her eyes. Although she didn't dare to look at the ghost flame, she could at least now look at me. I brought her to a place rather far away from the grave, leaned on a tree, and sat down.

I put down my schoolbag and took out some spicy gluten instant noodles or something from inside. Chen Xiao was very surprised and asked: "We're in the rear mountains, why are you buying so much?"

"We have to eat no matter where we are. Although there are a lot of ghosts here, what's wrong with that? "There's nothing that can stop us from eating our snacks. Even if we die tonight, we should at least become a dead man, right?" I looked at Chen Xiao and smiled.

Chen Xiao realised that what I said was true, so she started to eat. The two of them were eating snacks right next to the grave, chomping on it. But at that moment, I suddenly heard another sound. Although this sound also sounded a bit like a chomp, I was sure that it was a ghost's voice!

Thus, I immediately "shushed", signalling Chen Xiao to not speak, signalling him to close his eyes, Chen Xiao closed them, and I closed them. I only pretended to close my eyes, slightly opening them, to see what kind of thing would appear in front of us.

"Creak!"

"Creak!"

The sound was getting closer and closer. Gradually, I could feel a gust of cold wind blowing towards me. It felt like it was piercing through my heart through my clothes.

It's a pity that the two of us aren't penguins. Most importantly, it's summer now and Chen Xiao and I are both wearing extremely thin clothes, but the extreme cold of this place caused even Chen Xiao to be unable to resist trembling. She immediately hugged me, and when I opened my eyes, she discovered that there was nothing in front of me.

At this moment, the ice-cold feeling disappeared.

Just when I was amazed by this amazing thing, I unexpectedly discovered that this thing wasn't that simple.

Great Devil King clearly knows that we can't enter the back mountain, but he just chose the two of us to enter.

Could it be … After entering the back mountain, he would still be able to complete the mission?

But how was he to complete the quest? There are so many tombs in the back of the mountain, even ghosts can feel them.

Since the mission was a failure, then we can be sure that as long as Chen Xiao and I can find the key location at the back of the mountain, we will be able to spend the night in peace. Otherwise, those ghosts would not be as simple as just assaulting our bodies with cold wind.

The attack just now had made me feel like I was about to freeze to death. If the ghosts had acted even more ferociously, wouldn't Chen Xiao and I have died? So, it was because of this that I started to think hard about how I should escape at this moment. If I couldn't think of a perfect solution right now, the result would really be two people dying together, death is death, and there would also be a beautiful lady by my side when I die. If it was anyone else, they would probably die with no regrets, but I am different.

Death is a terrifying word. To me, living is still better. Thus, at this moment, I absolutely cannot be agitated. I must use my greatest ability to imagine just what was stopping me from living?

In the end, I started to stand up. Chen Xiao asked me what I wanted, and I said, "The grave here shouldn't be as clever as the appearance of ghosts. I think we should go into the tomb and see if there's anything special about it."

"You mean... Did you dig a grave? " However, I still said to her, "It is possible that this is the only way for us to survive. If we don't do anything, then we will just freeze to death.

"Of course I want to! I must go back alive!" Chen Xiao said.

I nodded. "Since you want to return alive, the tomb is fine. Come with me. If you're afraid, just close your eyes and don't look at it."

After saying that, I brought Chen Xiao and set off, directly heading to a grave. This grave isn't small, and it smells terrible, and the grave is already filled with weeds, but what's strange is that I clearly saw that the ghost flame came from this grave, but why is it that when we walked in, the ghost flame was gone?

"It can't be that there's a ghost, right?" Chen Xiao muttered softly.

"It's possible." Then I continued to look at the next grave, and found a ghost fire not far away on top of the grave.

Could it be that the ghostfire had moved? What did this mean? You don't want me to catch you? Or could it be that as long as I capture the Ghostly Fire, I'll be able to spend the night in peace?

So I continued to bring Chen Xiao towards the grave of the ghostfire, but just as we passed, the ghostfire disappeared, and immediately afterwards, the ghostfire came to another grave in front of us.

Chen Xiao seemed to have caught on to something, "I keep having the feeling that the ghost flame is leading the way."

"Is that so? Are you sure it's not circling? " In my pursuit of the Ghostly Flame, I kept an eye out for it. I placed a spicy gluten bag on the spot and used a stone to press it down.

At first, we were only at the northernmost point of the back mountain. After a long time, we arrived at the southernmost point of the back mountain, and we followed the footsteps of the Ghost Fire the whole time. However, I soon found that we had returned to the starting point, because when I looked down, I saw the spicy bag.

"Really?" We're back? " Chen Xiao was obviously very surprised.

In the end, I thought about it and said, "How about you just stand here and don't move. You just take your phone and look at it. When I chase the ghost flame later, I'll stay away from you."

"Mm. Alright." Chen Xiao agreed.

Then, I started chasing after the ghost flame again. Every time the ghost flame jumped to the place closest to Chen Xiao's grave, I would intentionally do the opposite and would continue walking forward. The air was getting colder and colder, and I couldn't take it anymore, so I sped up, but in the end, I still discovered that I had returned to Chen Xiao's side.

Chen Xiao was stunned: "Could it be, this rear mountain is actually just a maze? When a living person enters, that is actually to die because they can't leave? "

"It's possible that you didn't notice that the trees and graves seemed to have some sort of pattern, but I can't figure out what it is." I said, "If we don't solve it, don't even think about tomorrow. We'll freeze to death in a moment and the temperature will continue to drop!"
