MTL - Monument of Life and Death-Chapter 1057 not give a **** about

   Chapter 1057 Don't Care

  Xiaolan walked to one of the coffins and looked into the coffin with her probe.

  Looking from here, it's not completely empty, but scattered with some... confetti?

   Yi Yao and Xiaolan discovered the scraps of paper at the same time, Yi Yao squatted down, stretched out his hand and twisted one of them, picked it up in front of him and observed it carefully.

  Xiaolan suddenly thought of something, she hurried back to the incense stage, bent down and looked at the ashes on the ground.

   "What did you find?" Seeing this, Yi Yao also followed, holding the scraps of paper in his hand, "Xiaolan, look at these scraps of paper..."

  Xiaolan looked left and right, picked up a statue from the incense platform, and rummaged through the ashes. It didn't take long before she found what she wanted.

   "Ah," Xiaolan whispered, put the sculpture back on the table, then leaned over and picked it up, "Uncle Yi, look."

   It was a piece of paper that had not been burnt yet. The edge of the paper was scorched and curled up. Xiaolan checked the piece of paper with the piece of paper in Yi Yao's hand and raised his head.

   "It seems to be the same," Xiaolan said, blinking her eyes, "So...the person lying in the coffin is actually a paper figurine?"

   Yi Yao nodded, and suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he turned his head to look at the coffins behind him.

   "One...two..." Yi Yao muttered, "Nine...ten...ten, there are ten coffins here."

   The two looked at each other with grim eyes.

   "If there is a paper man in every coffin, then..."

  Now, there are ten paper figures in this space, and they are ambush in the dark.

   The expected severe pain did not land on the top of Zhou Ye's head.

   Zhou Ye held his head for a long while before bravely opening his eyes.

   He looked around.

   He was standing in the water.

   Zhou Ye's lower body was standing in a piece of water shimmering with silver light, the water only covering his waist, Zhou Ye turned his head blankly and saw Xia Hua standing behind him.

   "You finally woke up," Xia Hua panted, "How do you feel?"

  "I feel..." When Zhou Ye uttered the first word, he felt as if his lungs were empty, and the air leaked, "A little...a little stuffy..."

   "It's normal, it was the same when I first woke up," Xia Hua reached out to support Zhou Ye's arm, "Come out quickly."

   "The water here...is it only this shallow?..." Zhou Ye raised his legs and stepped out, "But I just..."

   "That's the scary thing here," Xia Hua said. "It will attract us to indulge and die here."

   "Dead?" Zhou Ye's mind was still dazed, but his heart skipped a beat, "But here..."

   "How did you get in?" Xia Hua asked eagerly before Zhou Ye made any useless remarks, "Where are the three of them?"

"I...I don't know..." Zhou Ye coughed a few times, only to feel his feet weak and exhausted, "I came in suddenly...suddenly...I only felt a cold at the time...When I came in, they were sleeping in the living room …”

   "Sleep?" Xia Hua narrowed her eyes.

   "It's pretending to be asleep," Zhou Ye continued, "in order to have a chance to replicate your experience."

   "Copy my experience..." Xia Hua's eyes gradually became clearer, "I see, you want to come in and save me."

   Zhou Ye nodded and smiled palely, "I'm sorry, not only did I not save you, but I asked you to save me..."

   "Don't say that," Xia Hua waved her hand and refused to be polite, "Let's go."

   "Ah, oh, um..." Zhou Ye and Xia Hua supported each other and walked towards the dark front, "You... do you know the way out?"

   "I'm looking for it," Xia Hua shrugged while looking out from a distance, "I haven't found the way yet, I'll find you first."

   "The water just now...is that the stagnant water that Li Muyuan said?"

   Zhou Ye turned his head, and the silvery water just now was no longer visible.

   "Stagnant water," Xia Hua asked, "what stagnant water?"

   Zhou Ye just remembered that Xia Hua hadn't had time to hear what Li Muyuan said, so in the next few minutes, Zhou Ye could only recite Li Muyuan's words upside down with the messy memories in his mind.

   But Xia Hua still struggled to understand.

   "If you say that..." Xia Hua's eyes looked far away, "The way back to reality may be here."

   Zhou Ye nodded vigorously twice, "We also speculated that, so... I came in."

   "Then we have to work harder," Xia Hua sighed and quickened her pace, "Zhou Ye...you...how are you feeling now?"

   Zhou Ye covered his stomach, his brows trembled, and he said softly, "I think it's even weirder... It's like a piece of empty body."

  Xia Hua took two breaths of air-conditioning, and covered her abdomen, and said, "I thought it was my aunt who was coming... It turned out to be because of this ghost."

   Zhou Ye suddenly heard Xia Hua talking about Auntie, blushed a bit, and hurriedly coughed a few times in embarrassment.

   "You...Are you alright?" Zhou Ye asked with a blushing face, "Stomach...Does it hurt?...But there's no hot water here..."

   "What kind of hot water," Xia Hua laughed. "It's not that my aunt hurts, it's because of the water just now."

   "Oh?" Zhou Ye immediately put away the shy expression on his face, "Does this water have such a big impact?"

"Since it's called stagnant water, it's definitely not a good thing," Xia Hua rubbed her stomach, without making too much pause, she quickly continued her pace and walked forward firmly, "It doesn't matter, it hurts as long as it hurts. Come on, Zhou Ye, let's go."

  ***

   Luo Jiutian and Li Muyuan stared blankly at the Taoist priest.

   "Daoist... If you eat this, you will lose your life," Luo Jiutian said, "No, I can't let you eat it, or Xiaoyin and Xiaolan will have to beat me to death."

   "I'm fine," the Taoist priest said in a very serious tone, but the smile on his face seemed like he was joking, "I'm not afraid of losing my life."

   Lao Luo pondered while looking at the Taoist priest.

   "I'm not afraid of shortening my life...how is this possible?" Li Muyuan thought this was funny, "Daoist priest, even our Shuangyu dare not say that we are not afraid of shortening his life."

   "It's not that I'm not afraid," the Taoist priest said softly, "I don't care."

   Several people were silent again.

   "That...that's not going to work," Luo Jiutian stammered, looking at Lao Luo as if asking for help, "What do you guys say..."

   "I..." Lao Luo Guo really said, "I agree with the Taoist priest."
