Chapter 443: "Fantasy World: Lin Xiaomoyu's Adventure in the Ancient Castle"
Lin Xiao tightly grasped the corner of Mo Yu's clothes, her whole body trembling, her eyes filled with extreme fear, as if she would be swallowed by darkness in the next second. "Mo Yu, I'm really scared, this place is too weird, I feel like something terrible will rush out at any time." Her voice was trembling and her teeth were chattering.
Mo Yu looked solemn, holding the sword tighter in his hand. He turned his head and gave Lin Xiao a firm look. "Xiao'er, don't be afraid. Even if there are demons and monsters, I will stand in front of you."
They walked forward cautiously, the stone slabs under their feet making a creaking sound, which was particularly harsh in this eerily silent castle. Lin Xiao's heartbeat accelerated rapidly, as if it was about to jump out of his throat.
"What a shabby place this is. It's so dark and eerie everywhere. It's simply a haunted house!" Lin Xiao couldn't help but complain. Her brows were furrowed, and her face was full of fear and anxiety.
Suddenly, a cold wind blew and instantly extinguished the torches in their hands, plunging the surroundings into thick darkness.
"Ah!" Lin Xiao screamed in fright and threw herself into Mo Yu's arms, hugging his waist tightly with her hands.
Mo Yu quickly hugged her tightly and comforted her softly: "Xiao'er, don't be afraid, it may just be a gust of wind."
At this moment, a low roar came from the distance. The sound seemed to come from hell, echoing in the castle, making people shudder.
"Oh no, something's happening!" Mo Yu frowned and looked vigilantly in the direction where the sound came from, with a hint of determination flashing in his eyes.
Lin Xiao raised her head from Mo Yu's arms, her voice tearful: "Mo Yu, are we going to die here? I don't want to die yet!"
Mo Yu looked determined and said firmly, "No, Xiao'er, I swear I will protect you."
As they continued to move forward, the surroundings became more and more eerie and terrifying. The portraits on the wall seemed to become distorted in an instant, and those pairs of eyes seemed to be staring at them, as if laughing at their arrogance.
"Why is this portrait so scary!" Lin Xiao closed his eyes in fear and dared not look at it anymore.
Mo Yu protected Lin Xiao while observing the surroundings, "Xiao'er, don't open your eyes, follow me, and don't let go."
Just then, a dark shadow flashed past them from behind, bringing with it a gust of cold wind.
"Who!" Mo Yu shouted loudly, his voice echoing in the empty castle.
However, there was no response, only their rapid breathing and pounding heartbeats were particularly clear in this dead silent environment.
Lin Xiao's voice trembled: "Mo Yu, what is that? I feel like we're being targeted."
Mo Yu gritted his teeth and said, "No matter what it is, if it dares to hurt you, I will fight it to the death!"
They quickened their pace, and suddenly, a tightly closed stone door appeared in front of them.
"What should we do?" Lin Xiao asked anxiously.
Mo Yu looked at the stone door carefully and found a strange mechanism next to it.
"Xiao'er, stand further away. Let me try to open this door." Mo Yu said.
Lin Xiao obediently took a few steps back, his eyes fixed on Mo Yu.
Mo Yu fiddled with the mechanism carefully, beads of sweat the size of beans appearing on his forehead.
With a "click", the stone door slowly opened and a pungent smell hit me in the face.
"What's that smell?" Lin Xiao covered his mouth and nose.
Mo Yu was about to speak when suddenly, a group of dark shadows rushed out from the door and pounced on them.
"Be careful!" Mo Yu shouted and swung his sword to meet the enemy.
Lin Xiao also came back to his senses from his panic, pulled out a dagger from his waist and joined the battle.
"Watch me!" Lin Xiao shouted and stabbed at a black shadow.
Mo Yu's swordsmanship is sharp, and every move carries deadly power.
"Go to hell!" Mo Yu roared and split a black shadow into two halves with one sword.
Lin Xiao accidentally fell to the ground during the fight.
"Xiao'er!" Mo Yu was extremely anxious and wanted to save her.
At this moment, a black shadow took the opportunity to pounce on Mo Yu.
"Mo Yu, be careful behind you!" Lin Xiao shouted loudly.
Mo Yu turned around and swung his sword, repelling the black shadow.
After a fierce battle, they finally repelled the group of black shadows.
"Huh...finally solved." Lin Xiao slumped on the ground, gasping for breath.
Mo Yu walked to Lin Xiao, stretched out his hand and pulled her up.
"Xiao'er, are you okay?" Mo Yu asked with concern.
Lin Xiao shook his head: "I'm fine, just a little tired."
They continued to walk deeper into the castle, encountering all kinds of strange traps and monsters along the way.
