Chapter 1921 No way forward
Yue Li and others were originally planning to leave the ghost post office, but they had to change their plans because of a glass bottle dropped from the fifth floor.
They plan to explore the situation on the fifth floor first.
Unexpectedly, before they reached the fifth floor, they found a second glass bottle on the wooden stairs.
Same as the first bottle, it also contained parts of a corpse.
It's a white arm.
Through observation, Yue Li can basically determine whether it is the head in the first bottle or the current arm.
These all belong to the same body.
Although they still couldn't determine the identity of the corpse, they were basically certain that even if this corpse was not a ghost, it was a ghost controller.
Otherwise, there is no need to dismember it at all.
Then Yue Li and the others set off again and continued to go up the stairs.
I don’t know if they have good luck or bad luck.
Next they found no other parts of the body on the wooden stairs. It seemed that the remaining body fragments were not here.
Yue Li was still a little disappointed with this.
If he could collect the different parts of the body, he would piece it together to see what it was.
Now it seems that it is not that simple to accomplish this.
Then everyone continued to move forward for a long distance without encountering any accidents.
Just when they thought this situation would continue until the fifth floor, a brand new change appeared.
Just after they crossed the height of a certain floor, they suddenly found that the steps of the wooden staircase in front of them began to become incomplete and broken.
No longer as complete as the previous layers.
Yue Li had observed that the wooden handrails of the stairs had even been damaged. In addition, the steps under his feet were also somewhat incomplete, with pieces of gaps exposed.
Moreover, Yue Li found that these gaps were full of strange things;
There were palm prints, tooth prints, and some marks left by cutting with sharp weapons.
The number of various marks I can't even count them, I don't even know how many there are.
Obviously, this wooden staircase has suffered many different levels of damage.
Another key point is that Yue Li noticed that the traces of damage to the stairs were old and new.
Some traces look to be at least ten years old, but there are still other traces that look like they were left not long ago.
According to normal circumstances, the stairs should have collapsed if they were so badly damaged, but this staircase in the post office did not collapse.
There seems to be some kind of supernatural force secretly maintaining the stairs here.
So no matter how the fifth floor is destroyed, the steps will still exist.
Unless someone can suppress the entire ghost post office with absolutely powerful supernatural powers.
Yang Jian looked at the gaps with a solemn look in his eyes:
“After such a long time, they all made almost the same action, destroying the post office intercom. The steps to the fifth floor.
It seems that the fifth floor of this post office is really unusual.”
Yue Li on the side also nodded in agreement.
Although they had no specific reference, they were still certain that their current location was definitely between the fourth and fifth floors.
Because they had climbed this staircase before, until they reached the fourth floor, although the steps of the staircase were old, they were not damaged and remained intact.
But the steps in front of them are damaged now, and the damage is very serious.
"Then let's go and see what kind of secrets there are on the fifth floor of the post office."
After Yue Li finished speaking, he avoided the damaged steps. Keep walking up.
Seeing this, Yang Jian, Ding Hui, and Li Yang also followed suit.
Just when a few people continued to go up not far, they suddenly saw a door.
It was an old wooden door. The wooden door was half-open, unlocked and half-covered, lying at the end of the stairs.
There are no other roads nearby.
“It looks like we are almost at our destination.”
A hint of joy suddenly appeared on several people's faces.
But when several people continued to walk up a distance and got closer to the wooden door, their faces suddenly changed.
Because they clearly saw that the last steps leading to the old wooden door had been destroyed, and there was nothing in front of them except a dark haze.
"Damn it, the last section of stairs has been completely destroyed." Ding Hui's face was filled with a gloomy look.
"There is no road ahead, how can we get up there?" Li Yang's face was equally ugly.
Compared to Ding Hui and Li Yang's worries, Yue Li and Yang Jian seemed very calm.
I saw the two of them analyzing the situation in front of them calmly;
“The closer to the fifth floor, the more seriously damaged the steps were. It seemed that someone did not want the stairs to be destroyed. The people below will go to the fifth floor of the post office." Yang Jian frowned slightly.
Yue Li nodded first, then shook his head:
“There is another possibility, that is, the people on the fifth floor of the post office want to isolate themselves from the fourth floor by destroying the steps. "
Regarding Yue Li's words, Yang Jian had some different opinions:
"The messenger on the fifth floor can't be so stupid, and he would choose to prevent the messenger on the fourth floor from going up to the fifth floor by destroying the steps.
This obviously won’t work.”
Yes, in Yang Jian’s opinion, if someone really wants to cut off the connection between the fourth and fifth floors in this way. , it is simply impossible to succeed.
Because the stairs at the post office are not real, but a supernatural phenomenon.
The stairs can be destroyed, but the ghost cannot be exorcised.
Unless someone is powerful enough to affect the operation of the Ghost Post Office, even destroying all the stairs here will have no real effect.
Yue Li showed a hint of disdain at this time:
“There may not be such people.”
Yue Li and Yang Jian can see through the nature of the stairs under their feet. But it doesn't mean that other ghost masters, the messenger can also see through.
Therefore, if someone on the fifth floor really wants to use this method to scare away subsequent messengers, it is extremely possible.
Hearing this, Yang Jian's eyes flashed, but he didn't say anything.
Because what Yue Li said is indeed very possible.
"We don't need to speculate here. Let's wait until we get to the fifth floor." Yue Li spoke again.
After saying this, he took a step forward with a calm expression.
At this time, the steps in front of him had disappeared, and there was only a haze surging under his feet.
But when Yue Li took a step forward, he did not fall.
There seemed to be an invisible step in front of the empty space, and Yue Li seemed to be standing firmly on the step.
“There are really invisible steps.”
Although Yue Li and Yang Jian just said that the steps still exist, Ding Hui and Li Yang behind them saw Yue Li While taking action, I still couldn't help but feel a little worried.
It wasn't until they saw Yue Li standing in the air that they felt completely relieved.
“Follow me!”
After Yue Li turned around and said something to a few people, he walked forward again.
I saw him stepping on the air, moving forward step by step. There were invisible steps under his feet, extending to the front of the wooden door. (End of this chapter)
