Chapter 176: Squeak
Just as Fang Congyi and Lu Yan stood side by side quietly, standing outside the door like two silent sculptures, their thoughts seemed to have traveled through time and space, returning to those terrifying and creepy scenes before.
However, at this moment, the originally silent atmosphere was suddenly broken
——The door that had been closed for a long time suddenly made a slight "creaking" sound without any warning.
Although the sound was not loud, it was particularly abrupt and harsh in this quiet environment, like a sharp sword instantly piercing the calm surface of a lake.
Following the sound, the door began to move slowly to both sides, and the gap between the doors gradually widened.
Lu Yan, who had been concentrating on the movement at the door, could not help but whispered
"They're out!"
His voice was very soft, as if he was afraid that if he spoke a little louder he would disturb the person or thing that was about to appear.
However, even so, the words still sounded like a huge bell, clearly and distinctly reaching Fang Congyi's ears, which were as clear as if they were carved from white jade.
At this moment, the originally relaxed and lively atmosphere seemed to be suddenly suppressed by an invisible force. The air around seemed to solidify into an extremely hard piece of ice, so heavy that it was almost impossible to breathe.
Yet, in this solemn and depressing atmosphere, there seemed to be a faint trace of emotion that was difficult to describe in words quietly spreading.
It is a complex emotion intertwined with expectation and tension, like the slight ripples on the surface of a calm lake. Although it is so subtle that it is difficult to detect, once you feel it, you will involuntarily be attracted by it and draw all your attention.
However, at this moment and here, Fang Cong seemed to be immersed in her own world, and the seemingly insignificant changes around her could not disturb her at all.
Her beautiful eyes were like two deep and quiet lakes, so clear that one could see to the bottom at a glance, yet full of mystery and charming charm.
At the deepest part of the lake, there is always a beam of wisdom shining, like a bright star hanging high in the night sky, shining brightly and hard to ignore.
At this moment, all kinds of thoughts were flowing through her mind like the surging and rushing water of a river.
Every thought is like the waves jumping happily in the river. They constantly collide with each other, intertwine and entangle with each other, forming a colorful, complex and changeable wonderful picture.
This picture is sometimes dreamy and blurry, sometimes clear as reality; sometimes gentle and graceful, sometimes passionate.
At this moment, Fang Congyi was completely immersed in deep thinking about the things he had experienced in the past.
All the little details that had happened were constantly playing in her memory like a movie reel.
She carefully combed through every detail, trying to find the clues and patterns hidden within, hoping to solve the mystery that had been lingering in her mind.
You must know that Fang Congyi is not an ordinary mortal woman.
She is an unrivaled expert who has gone through hundreds of battles, endured countless hardships and overcome numerous difficulties and obstacles before she was able to embark on this long journey of cultivating immortals!
During those long years, Fang Congyi always persevered in practicing diligently.
Day after day, year after year, her persistent efforts allowed her to gradually accumulate astonishing strength, and her cultivation had reached the pinnacle.
However, what her long years of cultivation had given her was not just unrivaled strength.
More importantly, by facing life-and-death crises and difficult situations time and time again, she has honed a keen perception far beyond that of ordinary people.
Even if there is the slightest disturbance in the surrounding environment, or the slightest hint of danger, nothing can escape her eagle-like sharp eyes.
In addition, Fang Congyi has also developed the extraordinary ability to remain calm in the face of danger and to remain composed in the face of emergencies.
No matter how thrilling the emergency is, or how complicated and confusing the situation is, she can always keep a clear head and remain calm.
Moreover, with their outstanding wisdom and rich experience, they can accurately analyze and judge the current situation in a flash, and quickly formulate and adopt the most appropriate and effective response strategy.
In this way, even if the external situation is turbulent and changing rapidly, as long as Fang Cong has a thought, he can immediately use the corresponding means to properly resolve it.
Almost at the moment she heard the slight yet clear sound of the door opening, her originally confused thoughts seemed to be suddenly split by a bolt of lightning, and she came back to her senses in an instant.
Her deep eyes were like burning torches, fixed tightly on the crack of the door that was slowly opening.
Every slightest sound could not escape his keen hearing. Her nerves were stretched to the extreme, and the muscles all over her body trembled unconsciously, always ready to greet the unknown person or thing that was about to appear from behind the door.
At the same time, Lu Yan, who was standing aside, also showed amazing reaction speed.
He adjusted his posture and perspective as nimbly as a cheetah, focusing all his attention on the key position at the door.
His eyes were so sharp that they seemed to be able to penetrate the door, and he would not miss any clues that might indicate the identity or purpose of the visitor.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense and solemn. Time seemed to freeze at this moment. Everyone held their breath, quietly waiting for what would happen next.
When people are out and about, they often unconsciously increase their alertness. This subtle psychological shift is like an innate instinctive reaction. Even Lu Yan, known for his calmness and composure, was not immune to this.
His eyes, as sharp as an eagle's, scanned the surrounding environment rapidly without stopping. Even the slightest sound of wind or the swaying of grass leaves could not escape his eyes.
At this moment, night has quietly fallen, as if a huge and thick black curtain is slowly falling, shrouding the entire world in deep darkness.
As the night deepened, everything around began to become blurred, and the familiar scenery was gradually swallowed up by the shadows, leaving only some vague outlines.
However, this did not make Lu Yan relax his vigilance at all, but instead made his nerves even more tense.
In this silence, a deep and magnetic male voice suddenly came
"It's already night..."
