Opening his eyes, the fog in front of him gradually dissipated, and he was surprised to find that he was in a strange green field, enveloped in a dense cloud-like light. There is a lake in front of me. The water is very calm and the wind is gentle. There are pale yellow calamus, white bellflowers, and red irises on the shore, which are unobtrusive and bloom steadily. The scenery was peaceful and beautiful, but his eyes were only attracted by the people in the lake.
It was clearly a woman, with a beautiful appearance and black eyes like pearls. She was actually the girl in green just now. Only half of her body was exposed to the water, and she was reaching out to him at the moment, her red lips opening and closing gently, but he couldn't hear anything.
"What? What are you talking about?" He asked involuntarily, taking the first step forward.
As if possessed, he stepped into the water step by step and headed towards the girl. The water gradually reached his knees, but he didn't care. He was still dozens of meters away from the girl, but the water had already covered half of his body. When the woman saw him approaching, a strange smile appeared on her lips, and her previously dull eyes became anxious.
At this moment, the cloud-like soft light suddenly lit up, splitting the mist like lightning and covering the woman's body. The woman screamed, and red blood oozed from her mouth, nose, and eyes on her pale face, and her face instantly became old and decayed. She hurriedly covered her face and cried, then dived into the water.
At this moment, he felt the lake water was chilling to his bones...
