As more questions arose, Su Jianyang decided to continue his investigation. He pushed open the door and searched for the basement that Wu Cheng had mentioned to him. Following Wu Cheng's instructions, he found the hidden door to the basement and, upon opening it, entered a dark underground room. 0
 
Aside from some miscellaneous items, there was nothing particularly noteworthy in the basement. The various eerie statues or talismans mentioned by Wu Cheng did not appear, leaving Su Jianyang feeling puzzled. However, when his gaze fell upon a strange statue of an Black-faced god old man, he couldn't help but feel a surge of disgust. 0
 
 
The statue has an ancient and simple appearance, exuding an ancient atmosphere. The statue's eyes seem to be staring at him, making him feel uneasy. Although not superstitious, in this gloomy basement, he couldn't help but recall various legends and taboos mentioned by witch Li. He tried to keep calm and continued to observe the place. 0
 
Next to the statue, he noticed an ancient book that had been torn apart, seemingly related to rituals and incantations. He struggled to piece it together, and although he could only barely make out some incantations, it still sent shivers down his spine. These contents seemed to have some connection to Wu Cheng's past, but the specific relationship remained unclear. 0
 
 
Su Jianyang realized that to unravel this mystery, he needed more information. He decided to continue investigating, searching for more clues to slowly unravel this mysterious case. At the same time, his curiosity and doubts about Wu Cheng grew deeper. 0
 
Just as Su Jianyang was deeply lost in thought, the sound of footsteps suddenly approached. He quickly looked up, his gaze shifting to the entrance of the basement, where a familiar figure came into view - it was Wu Cheng. As their eyes met, Su Jianyang's expression softened slightly. He knew that Wu Cheng shared the same goal as him. 0
 
 
"Su Jianyang," Wu Cheng said coldly, "it seems that you also have a strong interest in this case." 0
 
Su Jianyang frowned. He felt Wu Cheng's hostility, but at the same time, he also knew that this person might have the crucial information he needed. 0
 
 
"Wu Cheng," Su Jianyang said softly, "I'm not here to arrest you. I just want to know about your past. I want to help you." 0
 
After hearing Su Jianyang's words, Wu Cheng couldn't help but show a hint of a cold smile. His eyes were full of disdain and provocation towards Su Jianyang. 0
 
 
"Arrest me? Do you think I'm a criminal?" His voice carried a hint of sarcasm. "Officer, I haven't committed any crime. What do you plan to do with me?" 0
 
Su Jianyang's expression was somewhat awkward. He knew his approach might seem a bit forceful, but his only intention was to understand the truth of the matter and perhaps help Wu Cheng. 0
 
 
"I don't want to catch you," Su Jianyang explained, "I just want to know more, maybe we can work together to unravel this mystery." 0
 
Upon hearing this, Wu Cheng's eyes flashed with a cold light, and his expression became unusually excited, as if he already had all the answers. 0
 
 
"Officer, do you think you can understand all of this?" His voice became unusually deep, "I already know the truth of the matter. This world is not as simple as you think, and I, have long stood in a higher position." 0
 
Su Jianyang was slightly confused, he could feel the unusualness in Wu Cheng's words, as if this man had already fallen into some kind of special emotion. 0
 
 
"Are you talking about a higher position?" Su Jianyang tried to understand. "What exactly are you saying?" Wu Cheng's smile became even more peculiar, and his eyes revealed a kind of transcendent confidence. 0
 
 
"You may not understand, officer, but I have seen things that you cannot see, and I have traveled distances beyond your imagination," his voice became filled with superiority, "Perhaps, one day, you will understand everything." 0
 
Su Jianyang couldn't comprehend Wu Cheng's words. He knew that Wu Cheng's past was full of mysteries, and his mental state was clearly unstable. "Wu Cheng! Look clearly, there are no strange statues or talismans here!" Su Jianyang pointed to the empty basement and said, "Listen, I know some of your past, I'm sorry, I hope these things didn't happen to you, but they did, so can you stop? You've become a little unhinged!" 0
 
 
Wu Cheng After listening to his words, his face gradually became gloomy. Under Su Jianyang's dissuasion, he stopped his steps forward, but his eyes revealed deep dissatisfaction and frustration. 0
 
"Do you think you understand me?" His voice carried a hint of coldness. "You know too little, officer. You simply cannot comprehend everything I've been through." 0
 
 
Su Jianyang knows in his heart that even though he has sensed a strange atmosphere emanating from this man, he is still unwilling to give up in order to understand the story behind Wu Cheng. "Wu Cheng, I know about your past pain, but we are on the same side. We both want to unravel this mystery and find the truth." 0
 
 
Wu Cheng listened and let out a cold laugh. 0
 
"On the same side?" His tone was full of disdain. "Officer, you speak lightly. You have never experienced that kind of fear, you don't know how terrible it is." 0
 
 
Su Jianyang's brows furrowed deeply as he tried to communicate, but he felt the growing gap between him and Wu Cheng. 0
 
"Wu Cheng, I understand how you feel, but your current state is not stable. You need help." 0
 
 
Wu Cheng's gaze became fiery, and he suddenly turned around to face Su Jianyang. 0
 
"Do you think you can help me? Everything you know is just the tip of the iceberg. I have broken through the constraints, I have seen more things that you cannot understand." 0
 
 
Su Jianyang tried to speak, but was interrupted by Wu Cheng's fervor. 0
 
"You'd better give up, officer. I will find the answer, I will unravel this mystery, I will prove that I am no longer a bound person." 0
 
 
Wu Cheng turned and walked towards the Black-faced god statue on the table. He grabbed the statue, and a hint of madness flashed in his eyes. 0
 
"This is something I must do," his voice was filled with a determined madness. "I have seen the truth, and this is the only way out." 0
 
 
Under Su Jianyang's call, Wu Cheng left the basement without looking back. His figure gradually faded into the distance, as if heading towards an unknown destiny. 0
 
Su Jianyang stood helplessly in place, knowing that Wu Cheng had fallen into a kind of incomprehensible madness, and his own investigation seemed to only lead to more confusion in this puzzle. In this story filled with mystery and eerie atmosphere, the fates of Su Jianyang and Wu Cheng are gradually intertwining, and they will face an even more unfathomable truth. 0
