Chapter 219 The True Story

"It might be the same time period, or it might be the same space."

"Both space and time could have caused the current situation."

Zhang Chen nodded and said: "I understand, you guys hold on, I'll go up to the next level and kill all the evil ghosts, and then I'll think of a solution."

"If we continue, quantity is one thing. Showing up every day is also torture. There is no room for people to rest at all."

"How many people will die here if this happens!"

"What a dangerous mission."

Zhang Chen rushed out with a grin.

Arriving on the second floor, Zhang Chen made sure that no one was following him. After killing all the evil ghosts around him, he searched for unusual places with his eyes of truth.

"No?"

"Can't the eye of truth see through?"

Zhang Chen frowned and said: "Lord God, exchange it for a discerning item."

"The demon mirror is driven by spiritual power, magic power, true energy and other powers, and demons will appear wherever it passes."

"Mirror Time, a mirror made of the purest material, can see through various traps after being broken."

"After drinking the divine water, you will have the ability to have piercing eyes and golden eyes in a short period of time, and you will be able to escape all illusions."

"..."

Zhang Chen spent a long time choosing. The demon mirror is a permanent prop, but it is expensive.

Finally, I chose the exchange of mirror time.

Although it is only a one-time prop, it is relatively cheap and only requires reward points, making it the most cost-effective.

And he is a range prop.

"Mirror time, score 55, can cover everything within 500 square meters after being broken, and can see through various traps."

After Zhang Chen exchanged money on the second floor, a pure and transparent mirror appeared in his hands.

The mirror is transparent, and you can even see your hand holding the mirror from top to bottom, as if it were glass.

Zhang Chen dropped the mirror casually, and the mirror shattered. At the same time, stars appeared in the space, and the entire prison could be seen at a glance.

It is in sharp contrast to the previous look.

"So that's it!"

Zhang Chen finally understood why these evil ghosts could not be killed no matter how hard they were killed.

What they killed was not an evil ghost at all, but a manifestation of energy.

There are at least ten soul-calling flags hanging on the walls of the second floor.

Evil ghosts are continuously produced from these soul-calling flags.

After the evil ghost is killed, the energy is still floating in this prison. The soul-calling flag absorbs this energy during the day and releases it again at night.

After walking around on the second floor, Zhang Chen destroyed all the soul-calling flags, and then all the ghosts disappeared.

The same is true on the first floor, but on the first floor, there is a hidden locked room, and no one discovered it until the mirror was broken.

It was hidden behind two soul-calling flags, and the door was revealed after breaking the soul-calling flags.

"This is the true nature of the Wraith Castle."

Zhang Chen's smile finally found its source.

They were all deceived by the castle, and a room in the castle was also in the castle.

It’s not enough to enter the castle.

And from the very beginning, the story that the old lady told Xu Yingying mentioned one thing.

The castle is not a castle, but a prison.

"I have been deceived by my name for a long time without realizing it. Xu Yingying is nothing more than that."

Zhang Chen loudly greeted everyone: "The real room is here, come in quickly."

He opened the door first. The room was full of musty smell, but the environment was much better than outside and very clean.

"I'm afraid this isn't the warden's room."

Zhang Chen took a look and saw a bunch of keys hanging on the wall. There was a desk and a bed in the room. A book of handwriting was placed on the desk, covered with dust.

Picking up the handwriting and looking through it, Zhang Chen understood the whole story.

This matter is very different from what the old lady said.

The prisoner's escape was planned by the warden, and even the death of all the surrounding villagers was part of his plan!

The warden wrote in his diary: "This is my tenth year here. I feel tired and dark."

"Guarding such a remote prison every day, maybe my youth will be exhausted here."

"How can I return to my hometown and the imperial capital to see my ten-year-old daughter?"

"I really can't stand this place any longer... I want to leave, I want to leave like crazy."

"I wonder if the letter requesting transfer has been sent. Why hasn't there been a response for so long?"

"It's been ten years, it's time to replace him."

"Oh, God, I thought of a way to get out of here. As long as there are no more prisoners here, this prison will have no meaning in existence."

"I finally did it, finally did it!"

"They were obedient and crazy... It was great, exactly what I wanted."

"I don't care what they say about me, it's good for both of us."

"Haha, everything went well, it's time to go, it's time for me to leave this place."

"Oh no, I should work harder before that."

"I took the sword and returned to prison..."

"it's all over."

Zhang Chen was fascinated by it, but the diary stopped abruptly.

"If you are interested, take a look."

Zhang Chen threw the diary to everyone, Xu Yingying took it, and an impossible truth kept sketching in her mind.

Zhang Chen said: "I have heard that a Bodhisattva has made a great wish that he will never become a Buddha until hell is empty."

"And our crazy warden brutally killed everyone around him in order to go home!"

"Including the people in the prison."

"I even suspect that he set the last fire himself."

Zhang Chen turned around and said, "If the Bodhisattva did the same, he might have become a Buddha long ago."

"What's going on?"

Everyone was confused and didn't understand what Zhang Chen was talking about.

After Xu Yingying quickly read the warden's diary, she said, "Let me tell you in detail..."

"The warden misses his wife and daughter, but this is a poor prison, and it is extremely far away from the imperial capital."

"Although he applied for a transfer, no one was willing to come to this place, so his letters may have been lost when they were uploaded."

"The warden, who missed his hometown and his wife and daughter madly, finally came up with an idea, which was to kill everyone in the prison."

"No, not to kill everyone in the prison, but to kill everyone around the prison and then destroy the prison!"

Everyone felt a chill after hearing this. The crazy warden would actually do such a thing.

"In the warden's mind, as long as he kills all the people around the prison and destroys the prison, he will no longer be needed as the warden."

"He can return to his hometown to reunite with his wife and children."

"So, he deliberately let a large number of criminals go and reached an agreement with them to set them free, but these criminals must help him kill all the villagers here."

"In order to show his loyalty and bravery, the warden chose to pretend to rush into the prison and fight with these criminals."

"But in fact, the last fire may have been set by him!"

"And I guess that the old lady is actually the warden's daughter..."

"It is possible that the warden still failed to return to his hometown, but the emperor was willing to let him establish his own territory here to praise his fearless and brave spirit."

"Of course, in order to beautify himself, the warden wove such a lie."

"Then he brought his wife and children back, and he also built the monastery himself, probably to make up for his guilt?"

"Of course, these are all my guesses. As for the truth, I'm afraid no one knows it."

Zhang Chen said: "Okay, this is where we are going to live, and it's very safe, wait."

Zhang Chen interrupted the discussion.

Sure enough, the next three days were calm, and three days later, the teleportation beam of the Heavenly Dao directly passed through the building and landed in front of everyone...
