Chapter 257 Trap ([-]) Thanks to the book friend "(fill in the blank)" for the reward!

In this small village, it was crowded with all kinds of people. As the convoy drove in, everyone looked at the convoy with surprise and pity.

There were all kinds of people gathered in the village, including villagers, businessmen, travelers, warriors, and even some sentry cavalry who belonged to the sub-helm of Taicheng that Jiangyuan saw along the way.

At first, everyone in the convoy thought that there was some kind of grand event being held here, so so many people gathered in this small village, crowded shoulder to shoulder.

People looked panic-stricken and looked strangely at the convoy pushing through the crowd and moving forward slowly.

But when the convoy was about to drive out of the village, someone finally sounded a reminder:

"I can't get out! This ghost place has become very strange for two days. We can only enter but not exit. None of us can leave!"

No one in the convoy ignored this reminder, and the horseshoes continued to walk towards the road outside the village without stopping.

Jiang Yuan opened the car window and looked towards the village. Soon he felt the aura of inheritance and demon power. Among the crowd, he saw Lu Junsheng, Yinque and Xie Yun who seemed to be discussing something together.

"Can we meet them here too?"

This made Jiang Yuan slightly surprised. He didn't expect that Lu Junsheng and himself walked the same road, and he walked for a day, still riding a brisk fast horse, but here he was overtaken by Jiang Yuan and others in a carriage. .

Jiang Yuan quickly closed the car window. He didn't want to have any contact with Lu Junsheng at this time, especially because there was a powerful ghost chasing and killing Lu Junsheng who didn't know how far behind him.

The team quickly left the village and followed the road towards the front.

The village has gradually gone away, and on the road, you can see many passers-by who look anxious, tired and unwilling to give up.

The surroundings did not know when it suddenly became dark. Looking up, the originally clear sky was no longer visible, and a layer of gray mist shrouded it.

As the convoy moved on, the surrounding light became increasingly dimmer, and it was almost dark in the back.

The convoy finally stopped, and everyone realized something was wrong.

In broad daylight, how could it suddenly become so dark? Could it be because of a solar eclipse?

The people in the convoy looked behind in horror, only to see that the way they came from had become pitch black, and they couldn't see anything clearly.

Jiang Yuan and the others also came out of the carriage one after another, frowning and looking at everything around them.

In the darkness around him, Jiang Yuan could faintly feel the existence of a unique power, but the power was so erratic that he couldn't figure out the source of the power at all.

Fei Yuping had already jumped out of the carriage, grabbed a passerby who was following the carriage and shouted sharply:
"Who is playing tricks? If you don't tell me, you will die!"

The passer-by replied in horror:
"This place has been like this since the day before yesterday. No matter whether you are from the south or the north, once you enter this village, you will never be able to leave!"

Fei Yuping's face became more and more ugly, and he asked in a deep voice:
"What do you mean you can't leave?"

The passer-by hastily replied:
"It's like this. As long as you leave the village, the surroundings will become darker and darker. If you continue to walk forward, you will find yourself going around a circle and returning to the village. Countless people have tried to leave in the past two days, but The result is the same. I saw you coming in and wanted to follow along to see if the situation had changed, but the result was still the same!"

Fei Yuping threw away passers-by and came to Jiang Yuan:
"Jiang Keqing, what should we do now?"

These days, the members of the Fei family have been trying to curry favor with Yu Ling and get closer. In their hearts, Yu Ling is the most powerful presence in the team.

But Yu Ling doesn't like to be in contact with strangers, and spends most of her time with Jiang Yuan, which makes the Fei family's efforts in vain.

So the members of the Fei family had to shift their target to get closer to Jiang Yuan, and they seemed to have discovered that Jiang Yuan and Yu Ling were very close.

What's more, Jiang Yuan's strength made them dare not take it lightly, so when something happened, Fei Yuping was the first to ask Jiang Yuan for instructions.

Jiang Yuan couldn't help but think of the night he was in Taiping Town, and the situation he encountered at that time was very similar to today's.

However, the situation is very different, and Jiang Yuan is not sure about it.

So he said:
"Let's move on and see how we can't leave."

So the convoy continued to move forward, heading forward.

As he walked further and further away, the surroundings became darker and darker, and he could not even see his fingers.

Even the air became cloudy and cold, like being in the cold winter.

A night guard had already lit a torch to try to illuminate it, but the surrounding darkness was so strange that it seemed to be able to suppress the light. Even though the torch was burning very vigorously, it could only illuminate the face of the night guard, and even the fire light in a place a little further away unreachable.

Seeing this scene, everyone felt a chill in their hearts.

When they entered the village, they had a good line of sight, and they could clearly see everything in the village, including the village beyond.

But who would have thought that such a mutation would occur when he left the village.

The surroundings were so dark that even the front and rear carriages could not be seen. I don't know if it was because no one made a sound in this weird environment or for other reasons.

Just when people started to panic, the surroundings suddenly became gray again, with a little light.

At this time, the people in the convoy were shocked to find that the carriages that were originally lined up had scattered around in a mess at some point.

Fei Yuping stood on the shaft and yelled, gathered the scattered carriages together, and continued to drive forward.

The dim light around it began to become brighter, and a building appeared faintly in front of it.

The carriage began to accelerate, and as it approached the building, the surrounding scenery became clearer and brighter.

The sun poured down at this time, and the sky seemed to return to daylight again.

Bathed in the warm sunshine, people began to feel more at ease.

However, the convoy stopped quickly, and everyone's expressions were completely stunned at this moment. Isn't the building that appeared in front of them the village that everyone left before?

Even the people in the village were the same, they also noticed the arrival of the carriage, and then shook their heads as if they were surprised by it.

Not long after, the passer-by whom Fei Yuping grabbed and questioned before appeared behind the convoy, and he sighed in despair:

"Sure enough, it's still the same, I still can't leave! Could it be that I really can't get out of this ghost place? I still want to go home, I don't want to stay here!"

The hearts of everyone in the team turned cold. Facing such a strange situation, everyone's eyes were on Jiang Yuan.

Jiang Yuan's brows were deeply frowned. He had been carefully sensing his surroundings throughout the whole process, but he didn't notice why everyone returned to the village they should have left.

The only weirdness should be in that darkness, where Jiang Yuan's facial features seemed to be suppressed, becoming dull instead of sensitive.

It was under this situation that the team was pulled by an invisible force and completely turned around unconsciously, so that they returned here again.

Jiang Yuan looked up at the clear sky, perhaps there was a breakthrough there.

He turned to look at Yu Ling:

"Yu Ling, go up and have a look."

Yu Ling nodded, stepped on the shaft of the car with both feet, and jumped up lightly.

In the middle of the air, the four wings behind her spread out suddenly, and then flew towards the sky with fluttering wings.

Everyone raised their heads and looked at the high-flying Yu Ling expectantly.

Even many people in the village were startled, shouting and pointing at Yu Ling in the sky.

Jiang Yuan has been watching Yu Ling fly higher and higher, but soon, a mutation suddenly appeared in the sky.

I saw that the clear sky suddenly distorted at a certain height, just like ripples on the clear water surface. After flying into it, Yu Ling's figure disappeared as if submerged in the water surface.

The fluctuating sky quickly calmed down without any waves.

"The sky we see is fake!"

Jiang Yuan quickly understood that the clear sky that everyone saw at this time was completely a blindfold.

He soon became worried about Yu Ling, not knowing what happened to her, if something happened to her, wouldn't he lose a general.

Not only Jiang Yuan was worried, but everyone in the team was equally nervous.

The powerful Yu Ling is their hope. If even Yu Ling encounters an accident, then they don't think they can escape.

After waiting for about half an hour, when Jiang Yuan couldn't help but want to enter another form and fly up, the sky like a canvas fluctuated again, and Yu Ling's figure suddenly appeared, and then slowly landed.

"How about it?"

Jiang Yuan hurriedly asked Yu Ling who had returned to the ground.

Yu Ling's beautiful face is full of weirdness:

"It's strange. I keep flying and flying, flying towards high places. But when I fly to a certain level, it seems that no matter how I fly, I can't continue to fly higher. No matter how I flap my wings, I can't increase the height. However, when I When it landed, it quickly returned to the ground."

Jiang Yuan took a deep breath, can't even get out of the sky?
He went on to ask:
"Up there, can you see anything?"

Yu Ling replied:

"When I was in the sky, my vision was not obstructed at all. I could see the mountains, the land and the road in the distance. However, when I tried to fly forward, those scenes didn't get closer. It was as if they were moving in the same way. The speed is moving away from me, and it seems that I am flying in place at all."

Such an answer not only made Jiang Yuan's heart sink, but also everyone around him became more panicked.

"Get in the car!" Jiang Yuan said, "Go into the village and ask other people about their situation."

Immediately, Jiang Yuan returned to the carriage, and Yu Ling got in afterward.

The convoy also began to move on, towards the village not far away.

In the carriage with only two people, Yu Ling suddenly said to Jiang Yuan:
"I once looked down at the village in the sky and saw something else. I don't know if I should talk about it?"

Jiang Yuan smiled slightly:
"Don't say it if it's inconvenient."

Yu Ling continued to speak:
"I think it's important to pass it! I saw from above...all the people in the village, none of them are alive, they are all ghosts!"

Jiang Yuan shrugged:

"How is it possible, it's broad daylight."

Yu Ling said anxiously:
"It's true! These sunlights are fake. This piece of sky is covered by a special thing, so we didn't notice it at all!"

Jiang Yuan suddenly turned his head and stared at Yu Ling fiercely:

"Then is it possible that you are also a ghost?"
