I did not experience a mysterious revival!

Chapter 44 The Towering Clock Towers!

"I... I'm Sun Ping, the owner of this shop. I heard a bell ring today and inexplicably ended up here. It's been several hours now..."

Before Sun Ping could finish speaking, Lin Yuan interrupted him: "Wait! You said several hours? How many hours exactly?"

Sun Ping thought for a moment and said, "It should be seven hours, right? This godforsaken place keeps ringing the bell, once every hour, and that was the seventh time just now. That's right, exactly seven hours!"

Seven hours?

Lin Yuan's heart sank.

From the time he separated from Peng Anxiao until he just entered, less than four hours had passed in reality, but seven hours had already passed in this ghost realm.

"Go on."

"Yes, yes... I've been hiding in the shop for the past seven hours, too afraid to go out. It's so quiet here, like a ghost town. Until just now, when the bell rang for the seventh time, I heard a noise outside, and then I saw, I saw..."

The words were left unsaid, but the meaning was clear.

Lin Yuan knew he had been seen, but he didn't care. "Answer my question: Did you see any women riding motorcycles?"

"No, no. But I vaguely heard the sound of a motorcycle, and it left without getting close to this street. That was about an hour ago. It should be the person you're talking about," Sun Ping said hesitantly, clearly unsure.

Lin Yuan then asked, "When did that clock tower on the street outside appear?"

"It's been three hours, and the bell has rung three times. It was on the third time..." Sun Ping didn't finish his sentence, but the meaning was clear.

Lin Yuan nodded. "It's not safe here. I'll take you back first."

go back?

Sun Ping was stunned, his face filled with disbelief, and even his voice began to stammer, "B-Big Brother, you...you said you'd send us back? Back...back where?"

"Where can we go back to? Back to reality, of course. You don't necessarily want to stay here, do you? I already said I'm here to handle this incident. Now that we've found survivors, I'm naturally going to take you away. Alright, call the people in the room out. You think I didn't know you were hiding someone in there?"

Lin Yuan said irritably.

The Curse of the Mirror Actor gave him his own unique background music. It was a bit annoying at first, but you got used to it after a while.

Moreover, the physical enhancements this supernatural phenomenon brought him truly gave him the feeling of being a mini-Superman.

With increased strength, greater agility, and sharper hearing and eyesight, these are the most basic things. If there were someone hiding inside, wouldn't he be able to tell?

The rapid breathing was almost as loud as thunder.

"One?" Sun Ping asked, stunned.

Lin Yuan glanced at him. "What, are there two of them?"

"It's just two..."

Before Sun Ping could finish speaking, a woman's startled cry came from inside, causing his expression to change drastically. He rushed inside, shouting, "Wife!"

Lin Yuan's face darkened, and he quickly followed.

The front of this small shop is where you sell things, with many shelves and goods. There is a small door in the middle, and inside is a small cubicle, which is used as a temporary resting place during the day, and also has some stocked goods.

The space is small, only about ten square meters, making it feel very cramped.

A woman about the same age as Sun Ping slumped to the ground, staring in pain at the small bed opposite her, where a... man in black robes was crouching!

No wonder I only heard one person breathing before; it turns out that one person has already become a ghost slave?

"Daughter?"

Upon seeing this scene, Sun Ping felt his blood surging. He took two steps forward to lift the black robe, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't lift the seemingly ordinary black robe even an inch.

On the contrary, as if provoked by Sun Ping's actions, the man in black robes slowly raised his head.

The moment the man in black robes looked up, the floor suddenly shook violently, and almost in the blink of an eye, a two-story clock tower exactly like the one in the center of the lake in the lakeside park rose from the ground.

The small shop and the building seemed to have been squeezed apart from the middle and began to collapse.

"Walk!"

Lin Yuan stepped forward, grabbed Sun Ping and his wife, and quickly left the convenience store, even running across the street.

At this moment, the five-story building where the convenience store was located seemed to have been forcibly squeezed open from the middle, collapsing outwards from the location where the clock tower appeared.

A series of loud explosions, accompanied by thick smoke and dust, became the only sounds in this space.

Do not!

There were other noises as well.

"daughter!!!"

Sun Ping and his wife struggled desperately, trying to break free from Lin Yuan's grasp and rescue their daughter, who had turned into a man in black robes.

"Your daughter is dead! You're still young, you can go out and learn a trumpet, it's not too late!"

Lin Yuan was very annoyed and wanted to knock the two of them unconscious, like in TV shows and movies, where one person would chop a child in half with their hand.

But he had never tried this before. What if he used too much force and accidentally killed someone?

His words of comfort were of no use; instead, they fueled the middle-aged couple's despair. "What do you know? That was my daughter, whom I raised for years, and she's just gone like that! Have you ever lost a daughter?"

This means we can't communicate!

Lin Yuan's face darkened. He was too lazy to say anything more to the two of them, and he didn't care about being considerate or not. He simply took out his phone, ready to forcibly send the two of them back to reality.

Once they return to reality, someone will naturally guide them; there's no need to create unnecessary tasks for themselves.

However, at this very moment...

"Thump!"

A dull bell tolled from the smoke and dust.

How could this be? It's only been a dozen minutes since the seventh hour's bell rang, how could it be... Could it be that a new ghost slave appears and rings the bell every time?

Before Lin Yuan could figure it out, he threw the two people he was holding away.

It wasn't that he was heartless, but because these two people were already... dead!

Yes, he died.

Lin Yuan's grip was strong; Sun Ping and his wife were thrown into the air. By this time, they had fallen completely silent, but all the blood in their bodies had drained away, their pupils were dilated, and a stench of death was rapidly emanating from their bodies.

Just moments ago, the couple was incredibly vibrant, but with the tolling of the bell, they turned into two corpses, and began to decompose rapidly.

boom!

The corpse fell to the ground, and then a layer of black robes appeared, solidifying in a very short time into two black-robed figures!

Moreover, the moment the black robes on the two solidified, the originally solid cement ground shook again, and two more clock towers were rising from the ground.
