Nightmare Attack

The shop owner seemed to be excited, and his head shook slightly. In this short moment, Zhou Rong saw the person standing in front of the shop owner.

He was stunned for a moment, and then he shrank back suddenly as if he was greatly frightened.

He didn't control his arm well, and actually knocked over the candle on the candlestick.

Just when the candle was about to fall to the ground, a hand quickly caught it, and then put the candle back on the candlestick at a very fast speed.

Jiang Cheng pulled Zhou Rong and signaled with his eyes. The two quietly stepped back, pushed open the door, and went into a room.

Almost at the moment the door closed, a slight "creak--" sound was heard.

It was like a very heavy door was pushed open.

A moment later, a burst of hurried and powerful footsteps came from outside the door. The man seemed to think for a while, and then ran straight to the door of the room where the two were hiding.

The crisp sound of keys colliding rang out, and Zhou Rong was startled. He didn't expect that the shop owner actually had a spare key in his hand.

With the sound of the pins of the lock core popping open, the door was pushed open.

Footsteps came in, followed by the sound of searching, but he was destined to be in vain, Jiang Cheng and the other two hid in room 308, opposite room 307.

The shop owner searched for a while, but seemed to find no trace of anyone, and then left. He returned to the wall in front of the dark room. With a friction sound, the door was completely quiet.

However, Jiang Cheng and Zhou Rong did not move tacitly, and the sound of breathing was kept to the minimum.

One minute, two minutes, until the end of the third minute, there was a clear sound of footsteps outside the door, very close to the two, and then the friction sound was heard, and the door returned to silence again.

Jiang Cheng and Zhou Rong still did not move.

Until 5 minutes later, this process was repeated again, and the two quietly left the room.

But they did not go downstairs directly to meet up with their teammates, but came to the corner of the second floor.

"Mr. Zhou," Jiang Cheng pretended to be very scared and asked in a low voice: "What did you see just now?"

Zhou Rong's face was more frightened than Jiang Cheng, but he was not pretending, and his breathing had not been adjusted at this moment.

Just now, he hid behind the door of Room 308 and saw through the crack of the door that the shop owner had changed from the good guy yesterday, and his face was hideous and twisted.

What's more terrifying is that he held a sharp knife with a cold glow in his hand.

If he was discovered, the fate would be self-evident.

"In addition to the shop owner, there was also a woman in the dark room," Zhou Rong's face became more and more ugly, as if he recalled the scene at that time, "not his wife, but an old woman, she sat on a wooden chair, half of her face seemed to be melted, only one eye was left, and the nose and lips were gone!"

Jiang Cheng's pupils slowly shrank.

"Mr. Yin," Zhou Rong suddenly grabbed Jiang Cheng's wrist and said, "I know you are not an ordinary person, you should be able to see that the difficulty of this mission is different from those we have experienced before, and this time we didn't even match new people."

Jiang Cheng didn't speak, but gave him a look that said, "Although I am very scared, I can still insist on listening to you.

Zhou Rong didn't care about that and quickly said, "I want to join forces with you, Mr. Yin," he swallowed, "I have successfully passed 5 missions, this is the 6th."

He glanced at the stairs going up, and said with lingering fear, "But this mission is probably more difficult than the previous 5 missions combined. I haven't entered the domain yet, and such a thing has already happened. I have a very bad feeling."

Ignoring Zhou Rong's nonsense about how terrifying the mission is and how good he is, he raised his head and asked directly, "What do you mean by domain?"

As soon as these words came out, Zhou Rong couldn't help but be stunned. The look he gave Jiang Cheng gradually changed from doubt to suspicion, but in just a moment, he returned to his previous appearance.

"It's the range where ghosts can move or interfere," he explained.

"Then do you mean that Anping Town is not a range that ghosts can reach or interfere with?" Jiang Cheng asked back.

Zhou Rong nodded, "According to my judgment, it should be like this."

Jiang Cheng didn't delve into his judgment method or anything else. First, time was tight. If he delayed for a while, the people downstairs should notice the abnormality.

Second, it is unnecessary, because these are my blind spots, so no matter how Zhou Rong explains, I can't confirm the truth.

It's better not to ask, but it makes me seem unfathomable.

He gave Zhou Rong a strange look that said I won't say anything, but you'd better think about it, and then he neither agreed to Zhou Rong's cooperation proposal nor refused.

"Go downstairs," he said very naturally.

After coming downstairs, the two of them didn't say a word about what happened just now, but just said that they didn't find the store owner.

"Then what are you two doing upstairs for so long?" It was Chen Xiaomeng who spoke up. She stared at Jiang Cheng fiercely, wishing she could rush up and bite him to death.

"Could it be that you two..."

Chen Xiaomeng's face became strange. In order to throw dirty water on Jiang Cheng, she had done everything she could, even at the expense of the innocent Zhou Rong.

When Ben Fu heard this, his eyes looking at Jiang Cheng became more and more fiery.

"Long'er," Jiang Cheng looked at Chen Xiaomeng affectionately, and said shyly, "What are you talking about? You know how much I pushed you last night."

Hearing this, Chen Xiaomeng's eyes went dark, and he almost vomited a mouthful of blood in his throat.

"Dear masters!"

The village chief stood outside the hotel door, looking eagerly at these saviors. He finally managed to get the two to come down, but found that they were getting together to flirt and had no intention of following them to the village. This was so anxious. Got him.

When everyone looked at him, he smiled as kindly as possible with his few remaining front teeth: "It's getting late, and the mountain road is rugged and difficult to walk. How about we still..."

"Okay," Jiang Cheng nodded, "Let's set off now."

Hearing this, the faces of the village chief and all the villagers beamed with joy.

Following them on the road, Pei Qian walked side by side with the village chief. The two exchanged views on the local customs from time to time. Jiang Cheng followed them and squinted his eyes to listen.

Chen Xiaomeng initially planned to find an opportunity to strangle Jiang Cheng when she was alone, but Jiang Cheng seemed to have read her mind and would pull someone with her whenever she went to the toilet.

However, he doesn't seem to be picky about who goes with him, and the latest time he even dragged Yu Man along.

It took about a quarter of an hour for the two of them to return.

"That is to say, the village is located between two mountains," Pei Gan seemed to have thought of something and looked at the village chief as if to confirm.

"That's right, master, that's it," the village chief was very respectful to Pei Qian. He shouted to each master one after another, and even asked people to use paper umbrellas to protect Pei Qian from the sun.

Jiang Cheng glanced at him sideways and suddenly shouted: "I'm hot too, and I want a strong man to hold an umbrella for me!"

The village chief was stunned for a moment, then looked at Jiang Cheng and explained: "This little brother"

But what I didn’t expect was——

"Who are you with?!" Jiang Cheng pinched his waist, rolled his eyelids, and groaned, "Why is he the master and I am the little brother?"

"I'm an expert too!"
