Nightmare Apostle

Through the world in the mirror, Yang Xiao discovered that the man seemed to have heard something, which attracted him to suddenly raise his head and look towards the door, but Yang Xiao pricked up his ears, but heard nothing.

The man quickly stuffed the envelope back under the bed, came to the door cautiously, put his ear against the door, and listened for a moment.

Probably because he didn't notice anything strange, he slowly turned around and walked back to the bed. This scene made the bystander Yang Xiao feel familiar.

Sure enough, before the man could sit down, he turned around and looked towards the bathroom with horrified eyes. At the same time, Yang Xiao clearly saw the old wooden door in the bathroom shaking for no reason. All this was extremely familiar.

It's like watching a silent movie.

It was unmistakable. After he got rid of the ghost, the ghost found the man in mourning clothes. What the man experienced now was exactly the same as what he had experienced not long ago.

The man in mourning clothes obviously misunderstood. He moved closer to the bathroom door and shouted softly: "Little brother, is that you?"

Having said that, he was not polite at all. The sleeves of his mourning clothes were in his hands, and his muscles were tense under his clothes. He was ready to go. As soon as the door opened, he was about to eradicate Yang Xiao. Unfortunately, there was no Yang Xiao in the bathroom, only one Just a ghost.

Seeing that there was no one inside to answer, the man raised his leg and pushed the weak wooden door open with a standard side kick.

He opened it, and in the next second, a white water sleeve shot out like an arrow, hitting the bathroom cabinet behind the door hard. In the blink of an eye, the wooden bathroom cabinet rotted at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally collapsed and turned into a pile of rotten wood.

The man's attack was not weak, and he had two magic weapons close to him. Yang Xiao judged that this guy must be at least above the middle level of Li level. Even if he was not as good as Master Ji Le and Master Cheng Huang, it was not too far behind. I don’t know which level of master he is, but in short, using ghosts to deal with him today is definitely the right choice.

When he broke into the bathroom and saw no sign of Yang Xiao, the man panicked a little. What made him even more panicked was that there were marks left behind by sharp weapons on the back of the bathroom door. It was unlikely that this was done by a human being. It must be a ghost. ghost! build!

It was also at this moment that the man realized that Yang Xiao had not lied to him. There was really a ghost chasing him behind him. Yang Xiao's sudden disappearance caused the ghost to lose its target. Now, the ghost is targeting him!

No, this man's purpose was to lure the ghost to him. The man recalled the contents of the envelope and immediately determined Yang Xiao's identity. He was a resident of the same apartment building as him, the man who lived in room 1047!

What a trick to divert misfortune 1. Use yourself to get rid of the ghost's pursuit. The man hates it so much. This man has a vicious mind and is bold and careful. He must be eliminated!

But now is not the time to settle accounts with Yang Xiao. He has been targeted by ghosts. This is an unchangeable fact. He must survive the ghost attacks.

For a man, the best way to escape is to find another scapegoat, but time is limited and he has no time to run too far, so he can only find someone who lives in the same building. But there are only two people in Building 3, and since that person can kill the ghost He would naturally be on guard against him repeating his same tricks and luring the ghost back, so he judged that Yang Xiao must not be in the room at this moment. Room 1047 was empty, so there was no point in going there.

In this case, we can only resist forcefully. The man in mourning clothes is very confident in his own ability. The water-sleeved mourning clothes on his body were ripped from the corpse of a long-famous evil cultivator. His protective ability is first-rate. In addition, With this pair of stilts under his feet, as long as he can withstand the first wave of attacks from the ghost and wait for the ghost to leave, he can survive.

The man in mourning clothes chose to stay in the room and wait and see what happened. A minute later, the man's attention was attracted to the wardrobe. With the sound of knives and axes chopping flesh and bones, the closed wardrobe door trembled violently. The man did not approach the door or window. These seemed In a very dangerous place, he jumped on the bed on stilts.

At this moment, Yang Xiao's eyes seemed to blur for a moment. He actually saw a double image of the man in mourning clothes. 3 or 4 men jumped on the bed one after another at the speed limit that the naked eye could catch, and finally overlapped and became one person. .

No, no, this is not a dazzle, it is a man's ability, and it has something to do with the pair of stilts under his feet!

Before Yang Xiao could continue thinking, the man in mourning suddenly lowered his head and looked at the bed at his feet. Yang Xiao knew clearly that the ghost was here, and this time he appeared under the bed.

Outside the door, in the bathroom, in the closet, under the bed... ． The ghost was getting closer and closer. The next second, the body of the man in mourning clothes who was involved twisted strangely. His left foot did not move, and his right foot drove his body to turn half a circle counterclockwise. Yang Xiaoyi's eyes widened, and he saw nothing but the man who was turning his body. , another man who was exactly the same stayed in the same place, repeated three times in total. There were four men in mourning clothes standing on the bed. No matter what they looked like,

The posture is exactly the same.

When the four "men" stepped on the soft bed, they all had dents that were impossible to tell with the naked eye.

Only one of these four people is real. Although this kind of thing is almost useless against Yang Xiao's ghost lantern, it is very troublesome for the apostles who do not have such illusion-breaking magic weapons. Look around and see if the other party suddenly Four people appeared, and the impact can be imagined.

The four men immediately began to take action after they appeared. The two closest to the door immediately jumped out of bed and rushed towards the door. After opening the door, they separated to escape, one to the left and one to the right. However, the only two people left on the bed remained motionless, their eyes Stiff, like an abandoned puppet.

Yang Xiao didn't even have to think about it. The two running away must be fake. They were really still in bed, pretending to be frozen.

Things were just as Yang Xiao thought. Gray mist appeared in the room for no reason. In just a few breaths, it enveloped the room. The sight of Yang Xiao, an onlooker, was also greatly restricted. He could only vaguely see two figures standing on the bed. , and then the figure on the right suddenly lost his balance and fell down, as if falling into a deep pit, with only his upper body exposed. The figure kept struggling and screamed. At the same time,

The figure standing on the left suddenly turned into nothingness.

The little trick of the man in mourning clothes failed to hide the ghost after all, and the real body was found directly, and as the real body was restrained, the other puppets naturally dissipated.

What really shocked Yang Xiao was the ability of this ghost. It was unpredictable and impossible to guard against. He could escape with his life.

It was entirely because of diverting trouble to the east, rather than relying on one's own abilities to escape from the ghost's hands head-on.

In other words, if it happens again, as long as no scapegoat is found, he will be the one who dies.

The man in mourning clothes was still struggling, but as the fog dispersed a little, Yang Xiao saw clearly that there was a black hole on the bed under the man's feet. It was this hole that the man fell into, which reminded Yang Xiao instantly Not long ago, I was almost tricked by another ghost and fell into this big black hole.

The man tightly grasped the edge of the hole with both hands and roared in a low voice. The white water-sleeved mourning dress glowed red. It was obviously not an ordinary thing. Yang Xiao originally thought that the two sides could maintain a stalemate, but he obviously underestimated this ghost. After about ten seconds, the man's mental energy was exhausted, and the red light of the water-sleeved mourning clothes faded away. Amidst the man's desperate roar, he was dragged into the black hole by a huge force.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

There was a muffled sound of chopping meat and bones from the black hole. It was conceivable that the man's life had come to an end.

After a while, half of the bloody corpse was "vomited" out of the hole. The gray fog gradually dissipated, the black hole disappeared, and calm returned to the room again.

After waiting for a full 10 minutes, and seeing that the ghost was indeed gone, Yang Xiao dared to climb out of the mirror world. Looking at the half body on the bed, Yang Xiao couldn't help but feel his hands and feet getting cold. This was supposed to be his fate, a man's. It shows that he has watched the whole process, and under the premise that he can only resist forcefully, he can't do better than a man, unless his good sister takes action.

The room was filled with a putrid and muddy stench, which made Yang Xiao's head hurt. After clearing away all the miscellaneous thoughts in his mind, he walked towards the bed, first covering half of the body with a quilt, and then trying not to touch it. After reaching the house, remove the mattress and find two envelopes from underneath.

Yang Xiao picked up the envelope on top. The mailing address written on the envelope was Room 701, Building 1, East Asia Mansion.

After opening it, he was surprised to find that it was a report letter. The letter writer reported that someone was doing skin and flesh business in Room 1047, Building 3, East Asia Mansion. He claimed that this behavior seriously violated social order and good customs and had extremely bad effects. He hoped that it would be thoroughly punished. check.

After thinking for a moment, Yang Xiao stood up, came to the table, flipped through it, and pulled out a pictorial. There were pen calligraphy on the pictorial. Comparing the two, Yang Xiao was sure that this report letter was written by the owner of Room 437. The purpose It is to suppress peers and monopolize business.

Open the second envelope. This is also a report letter, but it is different from the first anonymous report.

There is a name on this letter, but the name part has long been blurred, but the address of the sender can be vaguely seen, which is Room 437, Building 3, where he is located.

The content of this letter is relatively long, and most of it is a complaint. He said that during the time he lived here, he often felt sleepy and dizzy for no reason, and sometimes he even fell asleep while reading a book, which had seriously affected his work and life. , he suspected that this was related to the foul smell emanating from the sewer. Recently, the drainage of the sewer was very poor, and the smell often returned.

At the end of the letter, the writer was still complaining, saying that he had written three letters in succession, but all of them had failed, and he hoped to get a reply this time.

Seeing this, Yang Xiao suddenly realized what the black hole was. It was shaped like an old-fashioned sewer cover and was about the same size. The ghost... climbed out of the sewer!

And from the looks of it, the mysteriously missing owner of room 437 and the original owner of room 1047 were both killed by ghosts.

But what makes Yang Xiao strange is why these people were killed by ghosts long after they encountered abnormal circumstances, while apostles like them were killed one after another, with almost no room for resistance.

These are ordinary people, and their skills and acumen are far inferior to those of apostles who are at or above the Li level. However, these people have lived for a long time, and they can even write 3 or 4 letters in a row after discovering an abnormality.

There must be a reason for this.

Sitting at the table, he read the two letters carefully. A few sentences in the second letter caught his attention. The owner of the letter complained that he often felt sleepy and dizzy for no reason during this period, and sometimes even fell asleep while reading. This scene made Yang Xiao feel familiar. Not long ago, he also felt an inexplicable sleepiness in the room. It made him dizzy and wished he could fall asleep on the spot, but he didn't dare. This sleepiness was coming fiercely and something was clearly wrong.

So he tried his best to fight against the sleepiness and keep himself awake. As a result, he survived the sleepiness, but the ghost came.

Taking a deep breath, I found the reason. It was this inexplicable sleepiness. If the person who was trapped fell asleep, it would be fine. On the contrary, if you fought against the sleepiness and won in the end, congratulations. , the ghost will come to your door later.

Ordinary people are not as mentally strong as the apostles, so it is naturally difficult for them to resist the sleepiness. When people fall asleep, the ghosts leave.

Although it was just a guess, Yang Xiao believed that this was close to the truth. He took out two envelopes and

The recipient addresses written on the envelopes were all the same, room 701, Building 1, East Asia Mansion. This also reminded Yang Xiao of what Lu Wencheng had said. Lu Wencheng had found out that there was an office in Building 1, which had been the management office of the entire East Asia Mansion. .

Combining the report letter in the envelope, Yang Xiao confirmed that room 701 was the management office, which meant that key clues were most likely hidden here.

But the more important the place, the greater the hidden danger. Yang Xiao is not enough by himself, he needs a helper. He goes to the landline phone in the room, checks the line, recalls the number left by Lu Wencheng, dials it, and rings. After a few calls, the call was connected, but the person on the other end didn't speak. After a few seconds of stalemate, Yang Xiao took the lead and spoke: "Brother Lu, it's me, I'm Yang Xiao."

The other person still didn't speak. The slight gasping could prove that someone was listening. Yang Xiao then spoke: "The phone number is wrong because I am in someone else's room. This person is dead and was killed by a ghost. I found some clues. About the management office of Building 1.”

At this point, the other person responded, but his voice was hoarse and wary: "Have you confirmed the room where the management office is?"

"right."

"Which room is it?"

"I can't tell you on the phone. You know the reason. Let's meet up first and I'll take you there." Yang Xiao also held back.

"Okay, we'll meet you downstairs in 10 minutes." After saying that, the other person hung up the phone.

Meeting requires taking some risks, but Yang Xiao feels that the risk is worth taking, because he has a way to distinguish the authenticity of Lu Wencheng, even without using a ghost lantern.

After putting down the phone, Yang Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at the blank photo frame on the bedside table inadvertently.

Through the reflection of the glass, Yang Xiao saw a pair of bloody legs standing on the bed behind him.

There was no movement. This sudden change made Yang Xiao jump up in shock. While turning around in the air, he pulled out the human bone stick and swiped it at the standing lower body. His bloody lower body was knocked down and fell to the ground. But he quickly stood up again, but these few seconds were enough for Yang Xiao.

He decisively used the soul-capturing mirror, and his figure disappeared instantly.

Hiding in the mirror world, Yang Xiao's chest rose and fell. Through the album glass, he saw the mutilated lower body walking stiffly towards the phone and standing where he had been before, motionless.

After waiting for a long time, there was no movement. Yang Xiao couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. This ghost was not the source ghost. It was a sad ghost that was formed after being killed by the source ghost. It seemed that he didn't have the ability to sneak into the mirror world. Yang Xiao also took this opportunity to take a closer look. observe.

Time passed minute by minute, and 2 minutes later, the mutilated lower body suddenly trembled, then changed direction and walked towards the door.

After going out and turning right, the figure quickly disappeared from Yang Xiao's sight, and this scene also reminded Yang Xiao,

Turn right to the direction of the stairs. This sad ghost... wants to go downstairs!

Yang Xiao couldn't hide it any longer. He had an appointment with Lu Wencheng first. See you downstairs in 10 minutes.

I'm not sure whether this Zhang ghost heard the conversation between the two. If it pretended to be itself and met Lu Wencheng, it would be troublesome.

Lu Wencheng is a big help to him and has helped him. Yang Xiao cannot give up easily on such a person.

In the mirror world, he also ran out the door, planning to rush downstairs and intercept Lu Wencheng before the ghost.

But what Yang Xiao didn't expect was that as soon as he ran into the stairwell, he ran into an old acquaintance. He saw another "self" who had a tumor on his leg and was climbing the stairs while holding on to the wall and using the previous wooden stick as a crutch.

One person and one ghost moved up and down, their eyes facing each other, and the scene became anxious for a moment.

"My god..." Yang Xiao jumped down five steps at a time with a human bone stick in his left hand and a ghost whisk in his right hand.

"You bitch, don't run!!"

The ghost in the mirror was so frightened that he lost his walking stick. He held on to the wall and crawled almost on both feet. His speed was almost as fast as Yang Xiao's.

Yang Xiao's eyes were bloodshot and his blood pressure was soaring. He couldn't control whether Lu Wencheng died or not, but today, the ghost in the mirror must die!
