Chapter 149 "A Fateful Decision in a Fantasy World: Lin Xiaomoyu's Breakout from the Dark
Lin Xiao and Mo Yu stood in front of the ancient and mysterious castle. The castle towered into the sky, like a huge black beast, exuding a chilling breath. The walls of the castle were covered with dark green vines, which seemed to have life, slowly creeping, revealing an indescribable gloom and mystery.
Lin Xiao frowned, his eyes widened, full of fear and anxiety, and he muttered to himself: "Oh my God, this place looks too weird! It feels like I walked into the set of a horror movie! How could I be so unlucky to travel to such a ghost place!"
Mo Yu had a serious face, tightly gripping the sword in his hand, which flashed a cold light in the dim light. He turned to look at Lin Xiao, his eyes firm and calm, and said, "Don't be afraid, Lin Xiao, since we are here, we should make the best of it. Let's go in and find out what's going on."
The two walked slowly into the castle. As soon as they stepped into the hall, a stale and decayed smell hit their noses, choking Lin Xiao and causing him to cough repeatedly. The hall was extremely dark, with only a few flickering candles barely illuminating the surroundings.
"Oh my god, what a crappy place this is! It's so dark and scary!" Lin Xiao couldn't help but hugged his arms tightly, his body trembling slightly.
Suddenly, a cold wind blew without warning, the candle flame swayed violently, and the light and shadows danced wildly on the wall.
"Be careful!" Mo Yu was quick-witted and pulled Lin Xiao behind him, while looking around vigilantly.
At this moment, a dark shadow passed over their heads like a ghost, bringing a chill.
"What the hell!" Lin Xiao screamed in fright, and her voice changed tone.
Mo Yu frowned even more tightly, and said in a deep voice: "Don't make any noise, or you'll cause more trouble."
They continued to move forward cautiously and came to a room filled with bottles and jars of various strange shapes, some of which were still emitting strange smoke.
Lin Xiao walked forward curiously, wanting to see what was inside.
"Don't move!" Mo Yu shouted loudly, his voice full of tension and anxiety.
But it was too late. Lin Xiao accidentally knocked over a bottle. With a "bang", the bottle broke and a green smoke suddenly spread out.
"Oh no!" Mo Yu quickly covered his mouth and nose, while pulling Lin Xiao back.
When the smoke cleared, they found a mysterious passage in the corner of the room, filled with darkness and the unknown.
"Is this a way out?" A glimmer of hope flashed in Lin Xiao's eyes, but they were also full of doubts.
Mo Yu shook his head and said solemnly: "Not necessarily, maybe a greater danger is waiting for us."
Just as they were hesitating, they heard heavy footsteps behind them. The footsteps seemed to carry tremendous power, and every step made the ground tremble slightly.
"Oh no, run!" Mo Yu pulled Lin Xiao into the passage without hesitation.
The passage was filled with a foul smell that made people's stomachs churn. A strange light flickered on the wall, sometimes bright and sometimes dim, as if mocking their intrusion.
"Mo Yu, I'm scared." Lin Xiao's voice trembled and tears welled up in his eyes.
Mo Yu held her hand tightly and comforted her: "Don't be afraid, Lin Xiao, I'm here and I will definitely take you out."
Suddenly, three forks in the road appeared ahead, each filled with a different atmosphere, making it difficult to make a decision.
"Which way should we go?" Lin Xiao asked anxiously, with a hint of tears in his voice.
Mo Yu pondered for a moment, his eyes scanning the three forks in the road, and finally said, "The one on the left looks safer."
However, when they walked into the fork on the left, they found that it was full of traps. The spikes on the ground, the falling rocks above, and the hidden mechanisms in the dark made it hard to guard against.
"Ouch!" Lin Xiao almost fell into a bottomless pit by accident.
Mo Yu tried his best to pull her up, but because he used too much force, his arm scraped against the stone wall next to him and blood flowed.
"Mo Yu, you are hurt!" Lin Xiao exclaimed.
Mo Yu gritted his teeth and said, "It's okay, it's just a minor injury, keep going."
At this moment, a sinister laughter echoed in the passage. The laughter seemed to come from the depths of hell, making people shudder.
"Who is it? Come out quickly!" Mo Yu shouted loudly, and his voice echoed in the passage.
However, only that strange laughter continued to be heard, getting closer and closer, as if it was approaching them step by step...
